"Thank you. Thank you. Thank you."
Since earning the title "Arizona Teacher of the Year," late last year from the Arizona Education Foundation, Mesa's Skyline High School's Nancie Lindblom said that's a message she's heard over and over again.
"Thank you for the work you do."
"Thank you for being a teacher."
As honored as she is by the expressions of gratitude, she wants all Arizona teachers to know the words are not meant just for her.
They're meant for all of them.
Lindblom returned to school Monday following a week-long trip to Washington D.C., where the AP government and history teacher spent every moment trying to soak in the all the events shared with the other 53 nominees for national teacher of the year.
"Everywhere you went people were praising you as a teacher and saying wonderful things and there were inspiring teachers giving speeches and all these people talking about the wonders of teachers and the impact you can make and there's this continual thank you," Lindblom said. "I kept thinking, I wish every teacher could experience what I'm experiencing. Everywhere I go people are excited about what I say about teaching and they're receptive to what I think we can do to better teaching."
"So often as teachers we don't get that feedback. We don't get that feedback on a day-to-day basis," she said. "I'm getting this great positive feedback that I would love for every teacher in Arizona."
The highlight of the trip was a visit to the White House to meet President Barack Obama.
"This was the biggest dream come true for a history and government teacher. I have been looking forward to this from the moment they said, 'You are teacher of the year,'" she said. "The fact that we got to meet him in the Oval Office was so incredible. I've gone through the story six times today with my students."
Each of the local winners spent a few brief minutes one-on-one with the president.
"The woman in front of me went in and I stood on the edge of the Oval Office. I thought the minute I walk in I'm going to forget everything going on around me. I wanted to take it all in," she recalled.
With encouragement from her students, Lindblom shared her opinion on her favorite president – Abraham Lincoln – knowing that Lincoln is also Obama's favorite. With that news, Obama said, "Then you'll want to see this," and walked Lindbom over to a part of the Oval Office displaying the Emancipation Proclamation.
"It was phenomenal," she said.
Lindblom is excited about some of the initiatives she heard about in Washington, including one that would give master teachers a few hours in the classroom with students daily, but also time to observe new teachers and offer advice on how they can improve.
"If we could do this in Arizona and across America, we would have better teachers and better educators and make them grow to become master teachers," she said. "It's this whole system designed to encourage and make teachers better. I think so often in the first three, four years of teaching — we lose most teachers in the first five years — I often think it's because they don't get enough support."

It's in Russian but that's OK. You don't need to know the language to follow what's going on. Some kids build a shrine out of ice in the Russian Far East for the Feast of Epiphany/Theophany. This is a GREAT video!

Rhythm Of Love
Stephen Rolls - 04/12/2014
Nice easy dance to a lovely track. Has been well received by 2 of our classes so far
One Great Mystery
Valerie Sim - 04/12/2014
Super dance, well worth a teach. Great, another one without tags or re-starts.
Wrapped Up
Linda Garrett - 04/12/2014
Fun dance with lots of interesting shoulder and body moves. Music quite fast but only 32 counts and no tags or restarts. Give it a go.
I See Me
Chris Jones - 04/12/2014
Absolutely love this dance, and one that all can do and a great track, well done Tina argyle I hope this dance does well for you
Hey Porsche
Stephen Rolls - 04/12/2014
Clever choreography by Niels. Different steps that hit the beats in the music perfectly. Sections 7 and 8 caught a few out with the timing to begin with, but the class soon mastered it and liked the dance
I Lived
Kathy Lucas - 04/12/2014
Quite a challenge but so worth the effort! A really good track and some first class choreography which matches perfectly. The three restarts are easier to recognise once the music becomes familiar and, whilst the timing is intricate, it all comes together to create a superb dance which my Intermediates absolutely love.
Uptown Funk
J Myers - 03/12/2014
red hot & on the floor !! > plenty of smiles and funky hip action the tag ( repeat sec 5&6) works well within the dance my only criticism & that of my classes is the lengthy trac 4:06 my answer to that is it will always be played early on in the evening >>> great funky stuff Rob thankyou from us all
We Only Live Once
Elaine Hornagold - 03/12/2014
Wanted something not too taxing this week and this fits the bill perfectly with the bonus of no tags or restarts. Great happy sounding music track and a dance the class picked up with no trouble at all.
We Only Live Once
Sue Bain - 02/12/2014
My dancers looked so relieved when I said they were going to learn a dance with no tags or restarts!! A lovely catchy piece of music - maybe a bit too catchy as it sticks in the brain for ages afterwards! Fairly straightforward to teach. All seemed to enjoy this one.
That's Just Me
E McIlvar - 02/12/2014
Why no reviews? My class gave this dance the thumbs up sign. The music is great and that's half the dance for us. If we like the music - we're halfway there. No tags or restarts! Thank you, Diana.
I See Me
C Bright - 02/12/2014
Wow what a great dance - if Ria's beautiful dance can get to the top so must this one - beautifully flowing and lovely music. One problem though, script appears to have error - watching the video, Tina does 2nd restart after tag? it doesn't say that though??
Take These Days
Stephen Rolls - 02/12/2014
Thought our class might struggle with this one to begin with, but no problems. The different combination of steps will make it easier to remember. Good track and the dance fits perfectly
Follow Your Arrow
Shirley Copeland - 30/11/2014
this dance as you can see goes back to Sep 13' however as Kasey Musgraves has just won "song of the year" at CMA this lovely little dance should be brought back to life. Just taught it at Carlisle weekend went down really well. Give it a go !
One Great Mystery
Stuart Gordon - 30/11/2014
This dance has taken me a couple of weeks to get into. The turns have to be dance, as choreographed, on the 1/2 counts and not softened over 2& to get the right feel. Wall 5 was a struggle where the music changes. Having said this it is well worth perceiving with.
Together Forever
Denise Nicholls - 30/11/2014
Bit late teaching this one but so glad I did, went down well in class and filled the floor each time. Just changed the mambo 1/2 then 1/2 and 1/4 turn for non turners into a mambo, side rock 1/4 turn everyones happy

Lloyd Selects Controversial Second Single, Collaborates with Soulja Boy
While his first single "Lay It Down" is still climbing the charts, Lloyd plans to stir up a little controversy with the follow-up, which features a special guest.
Speaking to Rap-Up TV on set of his video shoot for "Lay It Down" in West Hollywood, Lloyd revealed that "Let's Get It In" will be the second single from his upcoming album King of Hearts.
The R&B crooner, who recently cut off his trademark braids, teased with a few details. "It's featuring someone who I always really wanted to work with," he said. "It's very controversial. It's gonna be awesome. It's gonna be the shit."
Another collaboration he's excited about is with Soulja Boy. "Working on some @souljaboy new shit," tweeted Young Goldie. "Sounds amazin. I'm feelin myself. Yall aint ready."
Polow Da Don is executive producing Lloyd's fourth album, his first on Zone 4/Interscope Rrecords, which has been moved up from its February release to December. "It will be one of the top 5 best albums of 2010," declared Lloyd.

This corset is amazing! I absolutely loved it! Seller was awesome as well, excellent customer service!

I wore this as a foundation garment under my wedding gown. I can't believe how nice this corset is for the price!
|by Whitney Lai
|Date Added: Thursday 28 August, 2014
To be honest I was kind of skeptical of what I was going to get, having never ordered a corset before, but this was perfect! It's relatively easy to put on with lace on the back side (so you can adjust tightness) and hooks on the front. The hooks can be kind of tricky to take off, but at least everything is easy to slip on. I'm also VERY tiny to begin with, so I didn't think the bust part would fit, but surprisingly there's no awkward gap or anything like that.Would def recommend!

I used my measurements for the product. Was a little bigger in the bust area and smaller elsewhere. But overall looks great and will wear it for my Bachelorette party!

Watch Slick Shoota and Purple Juke Their Way Through Netscape Nightmare in 'F Dat' Video
Norwegian producer pays tribute to Chicago style on new Mad Decent/Jeffrees single
Chicago's juke music may be inextricably associated with the local footwork scene, but the jittery style's reach continues to expand ever outward, and Slick Shoota is a perfect testament to that fact. The Norwegian producer makes music that falls clearly into that framework even as he adds his own touches. To wit, his single "F Dat" showcases a unique ear for melodic context, and the uncut vocals of guest singer Purple, who laments the premature end of a relationship. "Thought we had the magic," she coos, while the corresponding Ossian Melin-directed video is full of strange voodoo — a combination of tradigital art, 3-D GIFs, vintage video-game snippets, and other Internet wildness. When we do see Purple, she's almost always within a screen within our screen. "F Dat" comes courtesy of Mad Decent's left-leaning imprint, Jeffrees.

I wear diapers for fun mostly and I will reluctantly admit now, also for convenience. It started for me in response to finally acting on a peeing fetish I have. This expanded to where I was wetting my pants several time a week. At that point I gave in to the urge to try a diaper, I instantly found I love them to the point where I'm a bit mentally addicted to wearing and using diapers, so, from a mental health perspective being diapered for me is sort of a medical reason. But in reality I where and use diapers for comfort, fun and pleasure!
they feel so nice and safe
Fun love my nappies and plastic pants
I wear a Wet Diapers for Fun and Relaxation. Diapers gives you the best way to **********, gives you the biggest Hard-On's and Whack off to enjoy the Best Organisms!!
I have been incontinent since an accident when I was 8yo injured my back and nerves.
For Fun - not sure why = but they feel so good and love wetting them
Both, and because they feel comfortable, sensual and makes me feel secure and well protected. :-)
I wear nappies at night because I still wet the bed though I have come to enjy wearing them.
Fun / Lifestyle. Why? Convenience, security, feels great, no worries if I need to GO - you just go where ever, when ever, and its FUN!
Ohh for fun i love them so much! !!!!
I am a bedwetter, and my bladder is not as strong as most people. So while there are plenty of times in the day I could manage without a diaper, especially if I really tried, I like them enough and fail safe wearing them, so I see no reason to stop. And besides, accidents do happen.
I wear it for 'fun'. as to teh 'why', I'm not entirely sure; I enjoy the pure sensations, feeling of wearing a nappy/diaper; kind of comforting, makes me feel sort of 'safe', and then I also adore the feelings and sensations of wearing it when it has been used for its intended purpose. Cbombined with which, I also get erotic enjoyment from it, and agian, I've no real idea why, it just 'does it' for me.. However, I am gradually loosing urinary continance, so before long I'll be having* to wear them for incontinence I guess... HOpefully I'll continue enjoying the pleasure, from wearing and using, when I have* to wear them.
I usually wear just for fun, but I occasionally wear for convenience too. If I'm going to shovel snow or something, I enjoy not having to take of a bunch of la<x>yers just to pee, and you can bet I'll try to be diapered for something like that.
incontinence, which can also be fun, and I need to be diapered for my sexual fun.
For fun. Why? Not really sure, LOL. Feels good. Sometimes it turns me on, too. And, like many of the others who have answered here . . . convenience. Sometimes I just don't want the inconvenience of interrupting what I'm doing, getting up, and going to the bathroom.
I haven't tried but I am curious to see why it is so liked.
neighter nor ... for practical reasons ... called convenience!
I love the feeling and warmth of pee as it gushes out and expands the diaper. Sometimes its a turn-on, sometimes its just relaxing.
because it makes me feel good, it is like a security blanket
I need to wear diapers because I am UI. I like to wear diapers for my comfort.

According to the American newspaper The Wall Street Journal, Washington plans to deploy modern missile defense systems in South Korea. It is a system THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense), which is one of the elements of missile defense of the United States in Asia.
Moreover, by 2018 the United States intends to expand its fleet of warships equipped with interceptor missiles, up to 36 units, most of which are likely to serve in the Asia-Pacific region.
Although the main reason for the increase in military capabilities is North Korea's missile program and a number of military experts associated deployment of a missile defense system in the Asia-Pacific region with plans of Washington to contain China.
United States can not directly tell that the missile defense system is aimed against China, because then they will make their intentions clear and may obtain a conflict. And saying that it is against North Korea, allows them to avoid conflict, because North Korea is isolated internationally and to act against it convenient. "
Meanwhile, the American missile defense is now a direct and immediate threat to China's nuclear forces.
Washington is able to perform a disarming strike against China with about 130 ballistic missile submarines. It's more than 500 nuclear warheads. As for the Chinese missiles of short and medium range, for their interception USA has already supplied Japan, South Korea and Taiwan with "Patriot" missile systems as well as "Aegis" that are placed on the United States Navy destroyers.
At the same time, there is no obvious military threats from China to the United States. The intention of the United States to build a missile defense system in Asia, ie Taiwan, Japan, Philippines - is, above all, the continuation of American policy to contain China.
Thus, the United States actively creates all the conditions for the expansion of its influence in the Asia-Pacific region both economically and militarily. No doubt that the European and Asian missile defense systems are part of an overall plan of the American leadership, the true objectives of which are global dominance and the pursuit of world hegemony.

Great sex does more than blow your mind—it's good for your heart, your head and your beauty.
Ever clean your kitchen and want to plug your nose because the cleaning products themselves smell worse than a dirty sink?
MORE: How to Have a Healthy Home
Those noxious smells are often signs of toxins—chemicals in your cleaning products that are terrible for your health.
Today, there are far more chemicals than there were 50 years ago, so cleaning products may be more toxic now than ever before. "In the United States, you can put a product on the market and include chemicals with little to no testing about their effect on health," explains Tracey Woodruff, Ph.D., director of the University of California at San Francisco's program on Reproductive Health and the Environment. Toxins in cleaning products can lead to respiratory problems, reproductive problems and potentially even obesity—and that's just what we know so far. "There are no requirements for full disclosure [of ingredients]," she says, "so we're operating in the dark."

Sites like GoodGuide and EcoLogo can help you sort through the mess and find products to help you clean your home without inhaling noxious chemicals. We especially love GoodGuide because it rates tons of products and highlights any harmful ingredients. In general, when you're looking at an ingredient list, "less is often better," says Woodruff. "Look for fewer chemicals listed on the label."
To clean her own home, Woodruff uses a spray bottle with a half-and-half mixture of water and vinegar. "Your house smells like a salad after you're done, but it works," she jokes. "Vinegar and baking soda work very well for cleaning most of the things in your house. Plus, they're cheaper." (Instead of baking soda, she opts for Bon Ami's Powder Cleanser.)

Professor Seid Hassan's Essay on the Devaluation of the Birr
Tsehai Alemayehu
I am submitting this short note to point to some technical errors in Professor Hassan's most recent contribution reminding us once again that given the structure of the Ethiopian economy, devaluing the Ethiopian birr is more likely to aggravate the already high level of inflation and result in other adverse disequilibria than improve the competitiveness of Ethiopia's exports. I should state at the outset that I have no quarrel with the essence of his conclusions regarding the likely consequences of an announced discrete devaluation for the country's trade balance and for the stability of domestic prices. I am an admirer of Professor Hassan's commitment for the wellbeing of our people and our native land. However, given the high regard the public accords his observations on the economy of Ethiopia, I believe it is important for any errors to be corrected.
Professor Hassan's piece contains technical errors which misinform the reader on the nature and mechanics of currency devaluation and depreciation. According to Professor Hassan, the World Bank recommends that the birr be devalued by 10%. Many people, including some professional economists, have a fit trying to explain what a 10% devaluation means exactly. Almost everyone gets the sense that it implies the currency (the birr in this case) will lose 10% of its value. But the problem arises when you ask whether that that means: (a) it take 10% more birr to buy the same amount of foreign currency or (b) you get 10% less foreign currency for the same amount of birr. And these two notions describe two very different outcomes.
The exchange rate of a country's currency is best stated as the amount of foreign currency which could be bought with one unit of the domestic currency. For Ethiopia, the exchange rate of the birr in terms of the US$ is expressed as the amount of US cents which be bought with one birr. If the birr is devalued, each birr fetches fewer US cents. As such the rate of devaluation is correctly stated as the reduction in the amount of US cents which could be exchanged for one birr after devaluation expressed as a percent of the number of cents which were traded for one birr before the devaluation.
Let us take a very simple illustration. Suppose the exchange rate yesterday was Birr10/US$1 and today the rate changes to be Birr20/US$1. If you apply Hassan's illustration, this will look like a 100% devaluation. But in fact, in order to determine the magnitude of the devaluation implied by this example, you would need to first restate the exchange rate as US cents per birr rather than birr per US$. Stated in this way, the exchange rate yesterday was US$0.10/Birr1 (ten US cents per one birr) and the exchange rate today is US$0.05/Birr1 (five US cents per one birr). You can now calculate the devaluation of the birr or its loss of value as the percentage reduction in the US cent you could buy with one birr: (US$0.10-US$0.05)/US$0.10, which equals to 50%.
The error in Hassan's approach means that he miscalculated what he called the stealth devaluation of the birr between the last official devaluation and today to be 21% instead of 17.3%. Many media outlets similarly misreported the magnitude of the devaluation which the nation orchestrated in 2010 to be about 16% when in reality it was well over 20%.
Hassan agrees with the World Bank that the birr is currently overvalued and I suspect they are both right. After all, overall prices have been rising at or near double digit rates per year since the last devaluation while the exchange rate has been has been depreciating by an average of about 4% per year during that time. However, Professor Hassan makes another significant mistake when he attributed the current overvaluation of the birr to the "influx of remittances and foreign aid".
By definition, overvaluation implies that the official exchange rate of a currency is higher than what can be justified by the demand for and supply of foreign currency in that country. It is true that in recent years, the flow of remittances through official channels has increased dramatically, as has the flow of foreign capital from loans and grants. These developments have substantially increased the inflow (supply) of foreign currency to Ethiopia. It so happens that for reasons that need not be argued here, the demand for foreign currency has increased at an even faster pace over the last several years resulting in an imbalance in the flow of foreign currency into and out of Ethiopia and creating a downward pressure on the exchange rate of the birr. Had it not been for the hefty increase in remittances and foreign aid, the noted imbalance in currency flows would have been even wider. Consequently, except if the authorities allowed the birr to depreciate at an even faster pace, the overvaluation of the birr would have been much worse without the hefty increases in remittances and foreign aid. These developments in remittances and foreign aid did in fact significantly mitigate the degree of overvaluation the birr in the face of sustained inflationary pressures. Professor Hassan wrongly states that such developments contributed to the overvaluation of the birr.
I trust that the authorities have not forgotten the lesson of the devaluation of 2010. It triggered a very painful cycle of inflation which brought the forward momentum in the economy almost to a halt. Instead, the authorities should persist on their course of controlled depreciation of no more than one or two percent per month while keeping their eyes squarely focused on domestic prices, job creation and economic growth. Exchange rate manipulation can serve as powerful economic tool only those countries where manufactures constitute a large segment of the country's exportable. Of course this is the stated medium term aspiration of the Ethiopian authorities. Until we get there, its best for the country to pursue other avenues for increasing the value and volume of the non-manufactured exports.

Improved formula
Why NEW?
After several years of in-house testing, Dr. Balogh and Intensive Nutrition are proud to announce a *NEW* Tanalbit formula. The features of revitalized Tanalbit include
- More active ingredients per capsule
- Higher Zinc and L-Proline content per capsule which allows the Tanalbit complex even greater access to the digestive tract
- Smaller Suggested Dosage: With greater potency comes a more convenient suggested regimen. Instead of 9 capsules daily our suggested regimen stops at 6 capsules daily
- Greater Efficiency: Individuals will see greater results in a shorter amount of time and as a consequence will also benefit from cost savings
Intensive Nutrition is confident that this revitalized formula will be even more successful for those seeking to maintain a healthy gastrointestinal tract
Tanalbit® is a non-prescription plant tannin formula for the which has been found to be a great natural alternative for helping the gastro intestine when compromised by bacterial or fungal infestations.
- Tanalbit won accolades from medical pioneers in candida treatment such as Dr William Crook author of 'The Yeast Connection'.
- Great Smokies Laborotories, an accredited diagnostic laboratory, made Tanalbit a staple in their list of recommended products.
The Tanalbit® formula is based on the powerful astringency and high antioxidant content of natural condensed tannins. Other components of Tanalbit® are chitin extract and lotus rhizome extract which provide synergistic anti-mycotic and anti-microbial action.
How Does Tanalbit Work?
When Tanalbit enters the lower gastri intestinal tract its natural affinity for lipids or proteins allows it to adhere to the outside of the yeast cell. The yeast cell can no longer feed of the host and dies and is naturally digested.
How Long Should I Take it?
Use of Tanalbit® for yeast, fungal or bacterial infestations is commonly 6 weeks, more or less depending on individual symptoms. As a powerful antioxidant and detoxifier,it may be taken every day as advised to help 'cleanse' or 'remove' toxic substances including heavy metals.
The suggested regime is 2 capsules 3 times per day for the first 2 to 3 weeks working down to 1 caps 3 times per day over 6 weeks.
What are other applications for Tanalbit®?
Tanalbit® is also extremely helpful in the following problems: toxicity buildup, bloating, gas, diarrhea, yeast and bacterial overgrowth, food allergies and/or food sensitivities/intolerance. As a result of its gastrointestinal support, Tanalbit® may help decrease debilitating fatigue.
The Tanalbit® formula is based on the powerful astringency and high antioxidant content (high proanthocyanidin content) of natural condensed tannins. The other component of Tanalbit® is lotus rhizome extract which provides synergistic activity in its ability to disable microbial/mycotic organisms. Use of Tanalbit® for yeast, fungal or bacterial issues is commonly 6 weeks, more or less depending on the individual. As a powerful antioxidant and detoxifier, Tanalbit® may be taken every day as advised to help 'cleanse' or 'remove' toxic substances including heavy metals
Why is Tanalbit® a superior gastrointestinal support product?
Because Tanalbit® is complexed with casein, a protein with hydroxyproline and proline amino acids, it is able to bypass degradation by stomach acid and effectively target the large intestine and colon. The action is important for two reasons. First, it ensures that Tanalbit® is effective and Second, it ensures that Tanalbit® targets the lower intestine where most infestations remain entrenched. Anti-fungals complexed without a protein as complex as casein are simply not as effective in comprehensively reaching the GI.
Interactions & Precautions:
Do not take before bedtime or with caffeine.
This formula contains purified casein. Tannins may interfere with the absorption/effectiveness of alkaline or steroidal medications. Please consult with your physician prior to taking this tannin product if on medication.
Excerpt from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and the Yeast Connection by W G Crook MD
Tanalbit – This internal intestinal antiseptic consists of natural tannins combined with zinc. It has found to be helpful in the management of yeast overgrowth in the intestine.
Serving size: 2 capsules
Active ingredients: Zinc tannate complex (Tannic Acid Canaigre Root) 580 mg, Zinc (elemental) 42 mg, L-Proline 16 mg

It's supposed to work on a Mac
It doesn't work well on a Mac
Bugs and time consuming BS! In the six months I've had this software I haven't seen a single upgrade or software revision.
Instead of addressing the issues and revising the software, it seems that Microsoft just lists pages and pages of step-by-step fix-it directions that make the consumer do all the work.
Typical Microsoft crap

Having used Microsoft Office on a Mac for many years, this version is, by far, the most stable.
In 10.6-8, no bugs experienced, and I use Word, specifically, very heavily. Updates and fixes are frequent.

"Fairly accurate review but didn't mention all the bugs."
Version: Microsoft Office 2011 14.2.5
As per above
I have to say Auto recovery function in the software is very effective after a crash when you haven't saved your work. As I detail below I have found the office suite software to be very buggy, testing it on several computers. I have become obsessive saving my documents. However in the instances where I haven't saved and experience a crash autosave almost always brings up my work right where I left it.
Extremely buggy. I have run the software on several computers and have found way too many bugs. The original release should have been called a Beta. The software updates have improved the functionality so obviously Microsoft is aware of the problem. But the fixes come too slow and there are still lot's of bugs left. This is the buggiest software I have ever used.
A couple of the most glaring examples
search still doesn't work
computer freezes when it goes to sleep and XL or Word are running
frequent crashes of the program
Extremely, Extremely, buggy. Most Beta releases are more reliable than the current release of this software. Wish there was another realistic word processing alternative and that I could get my money back.

Patrick Dempsey and Lauren Stamile by Craig Sjodin/ABC
Rose is no shrinking violet when it comes to getting McDumped by McDreamy. Given the cozy, candle-burning climax of Grey's Anatomy's season finale, it's no big surprise that Lauren Stamile's run as Derek's squeeze may be nearing its end. But the typically oh-so-nice nurse won't be scrubbed out quietly.Sources tell me exclusively that when Rose is excised from the superstar surgeon's love life, though she plays it cool with Mer, she is far from Zen about the whole thing with the boyfriend. "I'd count on at least one emotional outburst," previews a setsider. "Rose is not her usual composed self with Derek." What's more, although as recently as this afternoon the talk was that Stamile would only appear in the two-hour season opener, there are now rumblings that Rose may remain a thorn in the supercouple's side just a tiny bit longer. What's your take? Would you have liked to see Meredith be given a more formidable rival? Or can no mere mortal stand in the way of the Mer-Der romance? ...

Chandra Wilson in Grey's Anatomy by Ron Tom/ABC
Around the time Bailey got a big hug from McDreamy, comforting her in her hour of need, my heart began to break. Not so much for BaileyI felt for her, but figured her little boy would be OKbut for fans of Thursday night TV, who were enjoying their last normal night of mostly original programming for the foreseeable future.Parting is such sweet sorrow even under normal circumstances, when a typical season ends on schedule in May. But to have premature and unintended strike-imposed finales so soon into the new year, and just as some of these shows are hitting their stride (not just Greys Anatomy, but also Desperate Housewives, Gossip Girl and 30 Rock, to name just a few shows that aired first-rate original episodes this week that just happened to be the last ones in the can), it feels wrong. In fact, it sucks.At least we have two more episodes of Ugly Betty to enjoy until its inventory is depleted. Last night was a typical hoot, with Annie Pot...

Lauren Stamile, Grey's Anatomy
In tonight's Grey's Anatomy (9 pm/ET, ABC) — the last original episode filmed before the writers' strike — Derek deals with the repercussions of kissing nurse Rose after they bonded during a particularly hairy brain surgery a few weeks ago. Played by Oklahoma native Lauren Stamile, Rose is scheduled to appear in at least seven episodes. And with tonight only marking Stamile's fourth appearance, we can expect to see Rose complicating the Derek-Meredith romance a bit more. As Stamile says with a laugh, "Something else has to happen!"
TV Guide: Tonight, Derek deals with the aftermath of kissing Rose. What more can you tell us? Lauren Stamile: All I can really say is that things go a little bit differently than people would expect. [Derek and Rose

LAS VEGAS (AP) - A high-profile cast of politicians and alternative energy leaders are meeting in Las Vegas to talk about prospects for the fledgling industry.
Quick hopes for employment in alternative energy went bust quickly over the past year as credit markets seized up, orders for major projects were canceled and workers in solar and wind industries were laid off.
But unions, major manufacturers and researchers on Monday are joining politicians and others to plan for what comes next.
Organizers say they plan to define an agenda that pushes clean energy and creates jobs.
Those Scheduled to appear at the second National Clean Energy Summit include Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, former President Bill Clinton and Energy Secretary Steven Chu and U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

This year at HowTheLightGetsIn 2014, running from 22 May - 1 June, Open Gallery presents 'Openness Revisited', a video painting retrospective. Open Gallery has pioneered the video painting medium and its artists continue to push the boundaries of the moving image. The exhibition plays throughout the festival in the globe Hall.
The video painting movement was founded in 2001 as a radical new form of video art. Shot with a stationary camera, a fixed lens and presented without any sound or subsequent editing, video paintings are presented in long form as a thematic series.
Although individually titled video paintings are autonomous pieces, it is within the context and complexity of the series – typically including twenty to forty video paintings - that the medium represents a challenge to the narrative traditions of film and video art. The series do not loop but are played out in an order determined by the artists and which gradually shifts and evolves.
Included among the exhibited pieces at this year's festival are the first group collections, which focus predominantly on naturalistic imagery of both abstract close-ups and more panoramic landscapes. These early video paintings sought to escape narrative and allow the gaze of the viewer to wander across the image without seeking closure. Some of them are sufficiently abstract for the images to evade any specific description. It was in the avoidance of narrative that the early video paintings sought to re-engage the viewer with the images of video and to discover the unlimited depth and richness of the world. Later works reintroduced elements of narrative in the overall structure of a video series and the using of titling.
Showing in the globe Hall during debates throughout the festival will be video painting series from a collection of international artists including Sidsel Christiansen, Isabelle Inghilleri, Sanchita Islam, Tina Keane, Hilary Lawson (whose philosophy initiated the video painting movement), Gabrielle Le Bayon, Jasmina Metwaly, Roz Mortimer, William Raban, Sarah Turner and Alys Williams.

Voluntary agreements between low-cost rental housing residents, building owners, and real estate developers are reshaping the demographics of Washington, D.C. at a rapid rate, Annys Shin writes in 'The Washington Post'. Demand for upscale rentals is continually increasing in the city, so developers are looking for ways to acquire more buildings to renovate old apartments to meet that demand. Voluntary agreements, Shin writes, allow building owners to raise rents while avoiding long-term court battles with tenants. Instead of raising all tenants' rents, building owners simply offer the long-standing tenants a buyout, which if they can accept or decide to stay in their apartment unit at a rent-controlled rate. This way, new tenants can move in to upgraded, newly renovated units, while previous tenants stay in the original units at a lower cost. The idea seems simple enough, but as these agreements become more pervasive throughout the city, tenants who choose not to take the buyout are starting to see the downside of the agreement. "Schwat said that he warned the remaining residents that the renovations would be messy and unpleasant for them," Shin says, "but that they didn't fully appreciate what it would be like."

PSG forecasts higher profitComment on this story
PSG Group (PSG) advised on Friday that a reasonable degree of certainty exists that, for the year ended 29 February 2012, recurring headline earnings will be between 308 cents and 310 cents per share or between 27.3% to 28.2% higher.
Headline earnings will be between 325 cents and 327 cents per share or between 6.0% to 6.6% higher, but attributable earnings will be between 403 cents and 406 cents per share or between 4.3% to 5.0% lower than that for the year ended 28 February 2011.
"PSG continues to use the recurring headline earnings method to provide management and investors with a more realistic and transparent way of evaluating PSG's earnings performance. Consolidated recurring headline earnings represent the sum of PSG's effective interest in that of each strategic investment, regardless of its percentage shareholding. The result is that investments in which PSG or an underlying investment holds less than 20% and are generally not equity accountable in terms of accounting standards, are included in the calculation of our consolidated recurring headline earnings. Marked-to-market fluctuations and one-off items are excluded," the group explained.
The results for the year ended 29 February 2012 will be published on or about 16 April 2012. - I-Net Bridge

The 1972 BMW 3.0 CSi which had been completely restored by the BMW Classic Centers new Customer Workshop was handed back to its owner at BMW Welt. There was twofold cause for celebration: the BMW Classic Center was pleased at having successfully completed its first full restoration since the opening of the BMW Classic Customer Workshop, while BMW Welt marked the first occasion on which a classic BMW
BMW oldtimer cars at Schloss SeeHof… Photos of this classic car show are brought to us by forum member Dackelone! He happened upon some old classic cars in his town on Thursday.

Brescia/Munich. 70 years after its victory in the 1940 Mille Miglia, the BMW 328 Mille Miglia Touring Coupé has once again emerged as the winner of this tradition-steeped Italian event. Giuliano Cané and Lucia Galliani authoritatively steered the Coupé through the numerous trials and clocked up the 1,000 miles through Italy without a single technical hitch. Enzo Ciravolo and Maria Leitner rounded off the BMW triumph by coming third in a series-production BMW 328, clinching another parallel to the Mille Miglia of 70 years ago when … CONTINUED
This has been a big week for the BMW 328! Now it seems that a classic modified version of the car has sold at auction for an undisclosed amount that is north of 5.5 million dollars. Nice!
Munich/Brescia. 70 years ago, the BMW motor racing department had a single aim in mind: the 1st Gran Premio Brescia delle Mille Miglia. A total of five racing cars from Munich had registered for the big event. Preparations did not run entirely smoothly, and ultimately the BMW team very nearly ran out of time. But when the silver BMW racers crossed the finish line in Brescia on 28th April, they accomplished what few had dared hope for: overall victory, team victory and third, fifth and sixth … CONTINUED
Techno Classica Essen
Hi Gang,
This past weekend I went to Essen (Germany) to go see the Techno Classica Essen. It is a very cool and eccentric classic car show. I saw some really cool cars and a ton of memorabilia and collectables. I have been wanting to go to this event ever since I heard about it way, way back when! I am glad I went!
I tried to concentrate on BMW cars. But … CONTINUED
Sales of the BMW 5 Series already amount to more than 5.5 million units in five model generations – and now a new chapter is starting in the highly successful story of the BMW 5 Series Sedan.
While the sixth generation naturally follows the great heritage of its predecessors, its roots go back much further. As early as in the 1960s, BMW developed a strong and distinctive profile as a manufacturer of sporting but elegant, powerful and technically innovative midrange four-door sedans. … CONTINUED
Munich. BMW Group Classic is expanding its mission: from the beginning of this year the newly established Motorsport division is offering assistance in everything to do with classic competition vehicles that carry the BMW and Mini badges. The activities of the motorsport specialists extend from advice on servicing and repair, through parts procurement, right up to complete restoration
Munich. From now on, BMW Classics specialist workshop will not only be repairing and restoring its own classic vehicles, but also those belonging to customers. The BMW Classic Center thus closes the final gap in the complete range of services offered to the owners of classic models from every era of the blue-and-white badge. Just like owners of new vehicles, these customers can place their car in the hands of specialists, who can draw on the most profound expertise anywhere in the world
