With Alpinestars you can expect incredible quality, race level protection and real value. In 1963, a leather craftsman by the name of Sante Mazzarolo set . Based in the small Northern Italy town of Asolo and with the perennial Alpine star flower as it's namesake, Mr. Mazzarolo began producing the first products bearing the Alpinestars moniker. At that time a new sport called motocross was establishing itself and becoming quite popular across Europe. Very much aware of the sport, Sante realized an opportunity to apply his talents and technical acumen to design a new type of footwear that would meet the protective needs and demands of this beautiful yet brutal form of athleticism. The revolutionary boot that Mr. Mazzarolo produced would become an archetype for motocross protection. Early on, Alpinestars Motocross Boots caught the attention of motocross racing legend Roger Decoster who became one of Alpinestars first sponsored athletes and brand ambassadors. From that moment a rich heritage in motorcycle racing was born, which would branch into road racing in the late seventies.

To this day, Alpinestar's legacy of motorcycle racing and it's roots in Italian artistry are stitched into every garment. |

Town weighs upgrades to Killington RoadBy Josh OGorman
STAFF WRITER | June 14,2013KILLINGTON Improvements to mass transit and better year-round property maintenance were two of the ideas generated during a public forum on the future of Killington Road.
Earlier this year, the town received a $15,000 planning grant from the state Department of Economic, Housing and Community Development.
This is a discussion about whats appropriate for the future of Killington Road for the next 25 years, Town Planner Richard Horner said to the two-dozen or so members of the public attending Wednesday nights meeting of the Planning Commission.
The town has retained the services of LandWorks, a landscape architecture company from Middlebury, to develop a plan.
David Raphael, principal and landscape architect for LandWorks, led a brainstorming session, asking the public to think about what works and doesnt work on Killington Road.
The most important thing is for Killington Road to succeed as both a corridor and as a destination, Raphael said, referring to the importance of having a road that both connects Route 4 to Killington Resort and also promotes the vitality of the shops and restaurants along the way.
Raphael had the audience break up into three groups, which considered questions of what works well on Killington Road, what doesnt work well, what town can do and also what the private land and business owners can do to make things better.
The brainstorming session consumed the better part of an hour, with residents batting ideas back and forth and commiserating over heavy weekend traffic. But in the end, the ideas generated by the different groups were stunningly similar.
Its amazing, the synchronicity between groups one, two and three, Raphael said.
There was a general agreement that there should be designated stops for the buses transporting guests and workers up and down Killington Road. Currently, the bus picks up and drops off wherever people request it
Raphael noted his time in Park City, Utah, during the 2002 Winter Olympics, when people huddled by the side of the road as they waited for buses, and suggested that construction of bus shelters along Killington Road might increase ridership.
Another common issue was the appearance of business signs up and down the road.
There was discussion of a need for a consistent look from beginning to end, Raphael said.
Horner noted the importance of businesses maintaining their properties such as keeping the grass cut during the summer months when many Killington Road shops are shuttered for the season.
Sometimes it looks like youre not only closed, but abandoned, Horner said.
LandWorks will take the public comments and use them as it drafts a plan to present to the town Planning Commission, which per the terms of the grant has until June 2014 to put a plan in place.

It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future! Hugo still is the boss. What happened?
As Andrea timely reminded in this blog some days ago, today Venezuela holds Presidential elections, and media in Latin America, as well as the international sections of most papers and political magazines in the world are making it the topic of the week.
On the one hand, the incumbent, Hugo Chávez: a former paratrooper who got as far as obtaining the rank of Lt. Coronel, who staged a failed coup in 1992, was imprisoned and returned to the Venezuelan political scene in 1998 when he was the presidential candidate of the Revolutionary Bolivarian Movement, which he founded. Hence, he has been in power almost 14 years and wants to remain there for another 6, making it his fourth term. On the other hand, the challenger, Henrique Capriles: lawyer, was related to the group that staged a coup finally neutralized against Chávez in 2002, and returned to the Venezuelan political scene in 2008, when he led a successful campaign as a candidate of Justice First (Primero Justicia), the opposition party which he co-founded in 2000, to be governor of the state of Miranda. Now, supported by all the opposition parties, he is confident the Venezuelan voter will give him the chance to start a new era for his country.
What would that new era be about? Or, to put it differently, what has Venezuela been about these almost 14 years? An oversimplified answer would be: nationalizations, irresponsible economic management (to say the least, the last 50 years have demonstrated at one time or another that it is not very wise to base the economy of a country on oil exports), some doses of personality cult, and unfairness in political contests. Indeed all those ingredients have been present in Venezuela, but there is a certain agreement that Chávez's strategy to stay in power has not relied only, nor to the largest extent, on the manipulation of electoral results or the decisive elimination of the opposition. When he first took office, Venezuela was in recession, as measured by the yearly reduction of the GDP. Months later, the country began to grow. A general strike, specifically because of the participation of the oil industry workers, meant an economic disaster, fostering the opposition to call for a referendum in 2004, which Chávez won. Once the strike was over, the Venezuelan economy not only recovered but was boosted. This allowed the government to implement a large public spending policy through the so-called Missions (Missiones), comprised of programs to improve all levels of education, nourishment, provision of public services, health care, housing, and a general amelioration of living conditions for the indigenous groups. This, plus an anti-American speech that even today is more or less well sold to some people in Latin America, have given Chávez continuous support.
And why is Capriles so confident about his success today? Otherwise said, have the conditions that have played in favor of Chávez no longer in place, or even weak? The mere fact that there is an opposition candidate of a long-existing political party is a good sign for Capriles. Venezuela and Bolivia are textbook examples of what scholars such as Scott Mainwaring have called "the crisis of representation", a chronic feebleness of political parties that have prevented them from articulating interests and achieving their main function of representation. The challenger to Chávez in the 2000 elections was from a party called The Radical Cause (La Causa Radical), of Marxist orientation and not a very good alternative to Chávez. And in the 2006 exercise, the other contender for the Presidency of Venezuela was supported by a brand-new alliance of parties from the most different points of view (including Marxists, labor groups, social democrats, Christian democrats, centrists, rightists, etc.), which can be argued did not have sufficient time to convince the voters to choose such an eclectic coalition. But an idea remained in the Venezuelan opposition: without a unique opposition candidate it was not possible to even consider beating Chávez. So, all opposition parties have rallied behind Justice First to support Capriles. Even more, the oil-based economy of Venezuela is close to having given all it had to offer, Capriles marks a youthful and active contrast against the perhaps too often seen image of Chávez, and, maybe more importantly, the supporters of the challenger seem to be far more enthusiastic about their chances than in the previous two electoral calls under Chávez.
Notwithstanding some changes in the political landscape of Venezuela, there are some caveats. First, Chávez is the incumbent, and there is an almost unanimous consensus on the unfairness of the campaign. Second, optimism can mean nothing. Antanas Mockus, former major of Bogotá, to the surprise of many lost in front of the official candidate Juan Manuel Santos in the Colombian Presidential elections of 2010.
In his Foreign Policy article dating from January 2006 "Hugo Boss" (http://www.foreignpolicy.com/articles/2006/01/04/hugo_boss), Javier Corrales mentioned that Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez, then close to approaching a decade in power, "had found a way to make authoritarianism fashionable again, if not with the masses, with at least enough voters to win elections". He had achieved that, Corrales continued, by means of a relatively small set of actions: attacking political parties, polarizing society, spreading wealthy selectively, allowing bureaucracy to almost decay, and antagonizing a superpower. But there is always a moment when people like to hear the same tune all over again. That moment can be today. In some hours we will see if six and a half years after the article was written his own style of authoritarianism is still fashionable and if Hugo is still the Boss.

I have a 37 year old house that unfortunately was built with particle board subfloor. I want to put in nice, pre-finished, hardwood flooring but have learned that it is strongly recommended not to nail it to particle board. It seems that the usual solution is to over lay it with plywood subfloor, but this will cause a problem in our kitchen since it will raise the stove and dishwasher height too high, depending on the thickness. My carpenter said that pulling up the particle board would be a nightmare (i.e. very costly), and we wouldn't be able to remove the subfloor under the interior framing. Additionally, the floor creeks badly in places, presumably where the subfloor is loose/warped. I'd appreciate any ideas on how to handle this quagmire. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It will probably void most warranties to apply to particle board but most warranties arent backed up anyway. I have installed over particle board many times simply because of the cost issue and have not had any problems. With using an air nailer the nails go in so fast at at such an angle that they grip very well and decrease the chances of a blowout. I would check the area very carefully for squeeks and screw down those areas and possibly screw down the entire area. Only speaking for myself and 35 years of remodeling and never a call back. |

Wet particle board will swell and has no cleat holding power, a bad combination. The best bet is to remove it altogether. It is often a 1/2" sheet over a 1/2" plywood. Just replace it with another 1/2" plywood and there will be no issues over heights to plague current or future home owners. |
Unfortunately it is not over plywood. I can see it from the furnace room, under the kitchen. It's about 1" thick and glued down. |
though it may be hard to know for sure some p OSB are acceptable. Bruce recommends 3/4" OSB ps-2-92 rated. If thats the case then you may be ok but its a risk if its not |
To clarify, this is not OSB. It is oatmeal looking particle board from 1973. |

What type of transition strip can I use between a hardwood floor and a slate tile floor? I recently removed the carpeting in my living room to expose the hardwood floor. I also removed the carpet transition strip which was next to the slate floor in the foyer. Now the slate floor is about 3/8 inches above the wood floor. |

A wood reducer to match your flooring should work nicely. If no one has one, they should be able to make one out of wood stock to match. It might cost a couple of bucks, but it shouldn't be too too astronomical. |

Purchase a end cap molding for a 3/8, or 7/16 thick wood flooring. They are sometimes called a baby threshold, or a carpet cap threshold. |

Project: Snooker Game
This project was created using C++ and a 2D DirectX Game Engine. I started this project soon after learning about circular collisions and velocity in University. The game uses circular collision handling for ball collisions and also on the edges of the tables cushions. It also calculates the resulting velocity after collisions using the balls mass and velocity at point of contact, creating realistic looking ball collisions in the game. This was one of the individual projects I worked on over the summer, read more about that here.
The game follows the standard rules of Snooker meaning points are deducted for fouls, and the correct amount of points are gained for potting certain coloured balls. The game features 2 game modes; the standard 15 red Snooker game, and 6 reds. You can also play 2 player which will follow the standard rules of a Snooker match. The game features a menu system to enter the game which you can interact with using the keyboard and mouse, and pause menu to return back to the main menu, and a mute option to mute all sounds in the game.
Screenshot and demo video of the game:
Download the executable game file along with instructions on how to play here: (if you are using Windows 8, you may need to run the game in Windows 7 compatiblity mode, under properties) Snooker147.zip
I made blog updates when I was developing the game about changes to the game and new features and functionality. Read the updates here: Snooker Game Updates

I need your opinion on graphical style and navigation.
What I want to accomplish:
I like how Apple(http://www.apple.com/iphone-5c/) used partially obscured graphic elements to subconscious tell that this page is scroll-enabled and how scrolling isn't a scrolling as we know it but more like some parallax-scroll thingy without invalid state(when you half-scrolled from one section to another and content is out of place and looks weird or unreadable) and still it feels like scrolling. So i wanted to try something like this, but build around HTML5 video backgrounds and to be non-distracting.
On the technical side:
I have made this project to play with Google Dart language (just released from beta) SASS/compass, HTML5 goodies and a new grid systems from the Foundation + some Scala on the Google App Engine JVM.And it was pretty much good, well greased experience. I've managed to optimize pretty much every aspect of the page. Here's some benchmarks: [1, [url=https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftvc-2m.appspot.com%2F]2, [url=http://gtmetrix.com/reports/1.tvc-2m.appspot.com/egxhXt0V]3](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Ftvc-2m.appspot.com%2F) With js and vanilla css it would be too hard and to tediously to do for free
Ah yes. Here is the link http://tvc-2m.appspot.com/
First time through the site the camera moved on its own on the selected pages. I didn't really "get" what the sliders were for. Then second time through the camera didn't move on its own so I got it. However not sure if I would have if I hadn't seen it move on its own the first time. Very clever. Upon minimizing the screen size everything responded beautifully EXCEPT the image of the camera completely disappeared. Not sure if I would understand on a mobile device if I never saw the product image. I was viewing on Chrome on a 15" screen laptop and resized the screen to check the responsiveness. Hope this is helpful. A.
I'd suggest you try with more rounded font such as Calibri.
I'd also get rid off the blue outline on the mouseover text or would test 1px border variant.
Hey looks good to me.
The only fault for me seems to be that when you mouse over the square page indicators the border of the div that opens runs over the square below. Which i think is what ClipartLab is also saying. If you got rid of the border i think the box with the pointed end and drop shadow would look better as well. Drop shadow within a border always looks a bit odd to me.
I also couldn't get the first screen back. not sure if this is important (can't read russian) but i guess i would like to be able to at least click somewhere to drop the first blue screen down.
Tested on FF26.0 Win7 64bit
It's really helpful feedback. Normally you should visually connect controller (slider) and controlled element(camera image). I took a compromise between "right" and "pretty" because left part of the page looked a bit "too heavy" so i grouped inputs with the text panels. Since there is nothing else that can be controlled on the page I thought that it is obvious. But of course I can't tell for shure since i designed it.
Thanks, "Calibri" looks nicer and more readable. It's even more important for the big chunks of text. But "CondensedLight" might look more official and technical. On the firs "blue page" i use built-in font to deliver some content asap. Theoretically i can load another font in deferred way, but it will interrupt user. I definitely should play more with fonts and typography.
It's a Firefox bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480888 I made this tooltip thingy without JS on pure css (hover + before, after) out of curiosity. And it turned out to be non-agile and with some glitches. For example i can't make proper arrow size in IE. So yah it's not a good solution + this bug makes it look somewhat strange.
Thanks guys! I appreciate your help.

I have a large kitchen window which is has a center divider. The sink base cabinet is centered on this window. If I go with a 1 3/4 bowl sink the sink divider will not be in line with the window divider, which I think is fine. Where would I put the faucet, centered to the window, or in line with the sink divider? I am thinking it should still be centered to the window divider.
This is my window and sink

I put my faucet centered with the window divide. In reality, the sink isn't even centered on the window (off by several inches) but with the all the focus on the faucet you never notice. Plus as a pleasant surprise the faucet stream into the shallow bowl side lines up perfectly with the drain for no splashing. |
With a 1 3/4 divide you want to center the faucet more on the divide than on the sink. It doesn't need to be right over the divide, but it needs to be close. Otherwise the reach may not work properly ... the last thing you want is to not be able to use the faucet in the small side unless you're pulling it down with one hand. If you are off-centering from the divide just make sure you check the reach very carefully before having the hole cut. |

Thank you for your advice. Part of me is so tired of making decisions I may just opt for a single bowl sink-LOL. |
Hi, I lost a few nights sleep over this very problem! LOL I can laugh now, because it's been over a year. Here's our sink. Notice it's not centered to the cabinet, but to the window, as is the faucet. Good luck! :) |

This monograph on the artist Marie Lund comprises a two-sided reflection - the first mute, iconographic; the second speculative, text-based - on how we approach sculpture when it is reproduced on paper, or rather, how we approach an image of three-dimensional reality when we are offered a single, flat vantage point. It is the very act of "paging through" sculpture after sculpture, in this publication, that powerfully accentuates the texture of the materials, ranging from alabaster to steatite. Materials that have been transubstantiated into images, conceived by the artist to make our gaze wander over the stone surfaces and our mind wander through the disorienting awareness of a disallowed spatiality.

Log in to share your thoughts Re: No one told me I'd have varicose veins in my… vulva! Is there anything I can do? Your veins are working overtime right now thanks to your expanding uterus, increased blood volume, and crazy hormones. And, in the spots that are under the majority of the pressure, including your legs, vulva, and rectum (sorry) blood can accumulate. The result: swollen, or varicose, veins. So, that's the bad news, but on the bright side, aside from some throbbing here and there, they're pretty harmless and will probably disappear after delivery. To keep them under control (or prevent them in the first place), do things to improve your circulation. Prop your legs up as often as you can, exercise, avoid tight shoes, and try sleeping on your left side so your uterus doesn't press on the vena cava, a major vein on your right side (tuck a small pillow between your legs to take the pressure off your lower back though).Plus, more from The Bump:Top 10 Things They Should Really Warn You About Before Pregnancy7 Most Embarrassing Pregnancy Sex Issues (and How to Deal)Will My Vagina Be the Same Again After Delivery?

We are replacing our old, tile countertop with laminate in the near future and I would like to replace our sink and faucet while we are at it. We currently have a white, porcelain sink that has some nasty stains on it from the previous homeowners. I would like to put in a stainless steel sink but my wife thinks it wouldn't go with our white appliances. What are anybody's thoughts/opinions on a stainless steel sink with white appliances? |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by kitchenlover1 (My Page) on Tue, Aug 5, 14 at 11:21
I think stainless steel sinks go with anything, just like faucets, but I would probably try and get the stains out of the porcelain sink, they are such a classic. Is it a stain or chipped? I never had a stain that couldn't be removed with either comet or some type of rust remover. |

I've scrubbed that thing with Comet like my life depended on it and still nothing. It's not horrible I guess. I haven't tried a rust remover or bleach yet. It would save a couple hundred bucks if we kept our current sink. |
jamnich314: maybe this post may be useful ; not sure if you have tried it all already? |
I have a stainless sink and faucet. Personally, I think they go with everything. My DW and fridge are stainless but my stove is white. |

Try bleach. You can soak paper towels in bleach and just put them on the sink. |

Gemcap great link! Jamnich314 I would read the article if I were you, bar keepers friend works well with rust type stains, and it seems to act more as a polish, I use it on my stainless steel sink. I'm really against scrubbing to vigorously. I would usually just sprinkle a cleanser dampen it and then put a paper towel over it. You can do the same thing with bleach. For black type of marks you need more scrubbing power, I think they are residue from a pan hitting the sink, but again don't over do it, you might make pits that are harder to clean. Bon Ami is also a good general cleaner that will clean without doing damage, although you usually need something stronger for stains, i.e.. red food coloring, but it too will work with the black marks. |

Funny thing: the previous homeowners left a bottle of bar keepers friend under the sink and I never thought to use it. It's still sitting there right now. I'll have to give it a good soap cleaning, then bleach, then finish with bar keepers friend and hopefully I'll have a beautiful sink and save myself a few hundred dollars. Thanks for all your input everybody! |
Has your wife any concept of the kitchens of the last, oh, say 30 years? When white was the default color of appliances? When stainless was the thing to have in a sink? I have a porcelain sink in my little condominium I rent out. Bleach does the trick. There is even a slice into the porcelain that gets dirty, which bleach cleans. It also removes all those pot marks. Good luck. |
I have an enameled cast iron sink that can be cleaned but still has icky spots where the finish has actually worn down. So it IS possible that the sink can't be saved. But that's unusual. Stainless steel will look fine, as will a cleaned up sink. Good luck! (It's a drop-in sink, right? Not mounted under or flush to the tile? If it is, you probably won't be reusing it anyway.) |

Fori, he said he was replacing tile, with laminate, so drop down sink would be the only choice. |

I have stainless sink with black appliances; my daughter has stainless with white. I truly have never noticed, but everyone in my family has stainless sinks. Just not something I have ever thought about. If you go with stainless, ake sure you get the best quality/lowest gauge (16 or 18) you can afford. It makes a world of difference. |
For the icky spots with worn finish, they sell special enamel paint that works well and helps prevent rust. |
If I replaced my tile with laminate, it still wouldn't make my sink a drop-in. :P |
The reason the finishes get worn down is from using harsh products like Comet, Bar keepers, scrubby pads. I've also read that bleach will open the pores of porcelain enamel. Damaging products make the sink more susceptible to staining. Kohler has a polishing cleaner and a list of recommended products. |

So I used dish soap, then cleaner w/ bleach, then bar keepers friend last night. It definitely made a big difference. There are still black/gray scratch marks in a few places and around the drains there are still yellow/orange marks but I'm not sure if those will ever go away. I still have yet to try straight-up bleach on it to see if that will make a difference. |

A stainless steel sink will go with anything and will last you many, many years and does not have to cost a lot of money. |
As a Kitchen Designer, I have a few opinions/suggestions. The first question would be "are you keeping your home?" If so, do any type of sink and countertop you want! I can tell you that very few people use porcelain sinks any more, the majority being stainless. I would also ask why you're choosing laminate vs granite or quartz. Depending on where you live, and the size of your kitchen, you can do a stone CT. Stainless sinks go beautifully no matter what color your appliances are. Do a matching faucet as well. |
- Posted by jamnich314 (My Page) on Wed, Aug 6, 14 at 9:06
We moved into the home about a year ago; it's our 'starter home.' We will be selling and moving to a larger home in probably 3-5 years. It's a fairly small kitchen (less than 50 sq ft of counter top) in a fairly small house (~1,100 sq ft, 2 bed, 1 bath). We looked into quartz, granite, solid surface, etc. but the price hike just isn't worth it. Adding something that nice to this house won't raise the value very much. We aren't touching the cabinet, appliances or flooring either. Just replacing counter top and backsplash. The laminate (with a nice edge) and new backsplash should make the kitchen look WAY better. A picture of the current kitchen is below. You can see the sink in question as well as the counter and backsplash. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Current Kitchen
Thinking practically- if you can clean up your porcelain sink and that would make you content in the short term, try all the tricks in the trade to clean it before you spend any money. |
I like your sink and would keep it if possible. |
SS sink with white appliances is no problem whatsoever. |

OMG I can't handle another goal-setting exercise this time of year!
I prefer to believe that I am perfect just the way I am
(And I believe that you are, too!)
Instead of New Year's resolutions or making plans to get what you want, why not just decide today to be happy now?
On my latest vacation an edition of USA Today was dropped off at my hotel room, and the featured article on "Is This America's Happiest Woman?" caught my eye.
Normally, I don't read the paper or the news…
But if you could learn who the happiest woman is in our great land is — and more importantly, WHY she is — wouldn't you want to know?
Heck, I figured it was Oprah or maybe Michelle Obama. But I had to find out for myself!
Curiosity got the best of me!
And I was wrong. Turns out, it's Mary Claire Orenic.
Allow me to introduce you to Mary, who was found by a well-being improvement firm that partnered with Gallup to compile the characteristics of happy women living in America.
She doesn't have her name in lights, nor is she bombarded by paparazzi wherever she goes.
You haven't seen her on TV, and you've never read a book by her.
In fact, she's a lot more attainable than you may think!
(And if you're building a home-based business, you're off to a great start…)
Mary is a 50-year-old, happily married mother of one teenage son. She has a four-year college degree plus graduate MBA, and telecommutes full-time as a mentor-manager for a healthcare company. She and her husband bring in a healthy six-figure income annually. She exercises almost everyday by walking or riding the elliptical machine. She lives in a 2000 square foot home on the beach in California. She is close with family and has about 10 solid friends she can count on.
And there you have it. But what is so special about this combination?
While Mary is just one person of the massive demographic highlighted by this article, she represents the picture of well-being that is shared by happy women in America.
My interpretation is that to be happy, it helps to have a job that gives you a sense of accomplishment and contribution.
And like Mary, in our line of work as networkers we are helping others by teaching and coaching them to build an income, change their lives, and in turn help others themselves.
Mary makes a good income, and how settling is it to know you have stable income coming in each month?
In network marketing we take responsibility for determining our income. It is entirely up to YOU; not a manager or boss.
Mary has a son that is relatively independent, and also has healthy parents, so this offers her more time for herself and freedom from being a major caregiver.
Mary is certainly more active than most Americans, but she's not a gym rat. And I believe just moving your body, even if it's a short stroll, clears your head, makes your heart beat so you can feel it in your chest, and gives you an overall sense of well-being.
So many of us are lucky enough to be affiliated with health, nutrition, and wellness companies where activity is emphasized, and making fitness a priority is encouraged.
And who can underestimate girlfriends? Even a compassionate husband with a listening ear is no substitute for venting with a friend and helping each other sort out our lives.
While I'm nowhere near the almost-empty-nester stage that Mary is enjoying (my little girl is taking her morning nap right now, if that tells you anything!) I am grateful for the qualities that America's Happiest Woman and I share:
- Meaningful work
- No commute!
- Wonderful husband whom I adore
- One kiddo (although most of the happiest woman have two)
- Healthy parents
- Excellent physical and emotional health
- Great friends
- Substantial income
So as we all begin 2012 together, I encourage you to take a moment and be grateful for what makes YOU happy!
I invite you to list below in the comments section what things in your life put a smile on your face and cause you to give thanks now.
And as you go pursue your goals and dreams this year, let's remember not to postpone happiness for when everything is achieved.
You ROCK! Thanks for commenting, and for Tweeting this to your network.

adidas Releases Illustrated Hype Video for Today's World Cup Semifinal
adidas has had a great World Cup from a marketing standpoint. With brand sponsored Germany already in the final, and Argentina with potential to win today, the brand will be guaranteed a record 5th World Cup winner.
In preparation for the huge semi-final match this afternoon between Argentina and the Netherlands, adidas has released an awesome illustrated look at some great moments for both squads during their World Cup runs. In addition, adidas released an info graph comparing the stats of Leo Messi and the Dutch Arjen Robben during the tournament. The graph says what we already know – that come game time, we will be watching two of the best in the world go at it.
We probably won't be seeing either side score seven goals (or allowing seven goals – ahem, Brazil), but it should be an exciting, hard-fought match throughout. Make sure to check out the flashy adidas Battle Pack cleats Messi and Robben will have on their feet, and keep it locked to Sneaker Report for more.

Though the movie is tantalizing there is a serious flow in its casting. You will find too many episodes , just an exchange of few words and places. This will make lose the taste because too many conflict does not make the movie better but the short episodes will make it the directing very bad
i love hiwet too

Hiwet movie is wonderfull. one thing i do not like the guy he effected by Hiv, i know he can live by new medication like evey body else , but in the party that her friend she is begging her to marry the guy he has Hiv. but why she intresting to do that, i remember her boy friend if you are not testing in Hiv she said she would not marry. now why she insited to infected her frind??? producer this the Qiuetion is for you.
hewet is very good
hiwet is a good movie. It has an important message. people can learn from this movie.
you eritrea people cheated by the goverment because this shows that how eritrea fail economy other wise the old grand father daniel no one follow him even if is rich. shame on u eritrea.
It is boring and lazy drama, full of imitation and childish.
It has no life in it, a one man show- a drunkan and a bad example to our good people in Eritrea! Why can't they pass the job to others young minded who could do it better and so that the children, the future of the tomorrow, might learn something valuable to change the depression and luck of freedom existed there like hell!
I never seen such a meaningful movie. this was not the life of ERITREAN ppl, but with those who thinks they are the best leaders in the world everything is messed up. Hope the right time and culture will be back soon!!!!!!
atta atata atatata atatta is this realy really a movie, who the hell does really did this to be sired on the air, may be u guys doesnt know, weys blmdi ekum ….pls do some thing, lleave the stage, cause u not reflevting the Eritrean culture, i say u…r filthy rubish!
i love this movie this is wonderfull
i loove it.
I realy enjoy this movie and can waite to fallow it sunday after sunday, but all the great act and job, are they getting paid by pfdj becouse it look like they are oing good job but they are not conpansated for their work well good work for free labor by the actors it hurt deep,
i is dead
hiwet btami mharit move,,,
OMG this movie is truly fantastic n its really taught me a lot about life.Hiwet means Life and in order to have a good life think carefully before you do bad mistakes and regret yourself because in life you will never go back or reverse yourself into what you were before but continue on and on, so that's my lesson from this movie!
im sure it s,movie, we can learn us how to be in danger life,
betam betam kongoooo extremely good.
Jolly, dessu, mahal, and the so called "eritra":
Why don't you go to Mekele and ask your relatives what they love to watch for a movie or drama? Ask them which actor's or actress's poster is posted for advertisement in almost every corner of Mekele. They will tell you "Eritrean! Eritrean! Eritrean!". When they smile, it is because of Eritrea/Eritreans and, unfortunately, when they cry they also 'THINK' it is because of Eritrea. Now, what are you crying about? Please leave Eri-TV and go to your "Sew le Sew" or "Gemena" and see how your relatives are pretending to be what they are not or what the Ethiopian people are not, or how Mekele is "more beautiful" than Addis-Ababa. Your English needs a lot of improvement; I had a hard time understanding what you guys were trying to say.
As Hana Berhane put it very nicely, "AB HIWET ZELO HIWET NAY BEHAKI HIWET"
hi yes so pls do something eritrean men ok dont tray to be a hsbandof 2 you guys allways ……………..i

Developer buys two Keys marinas
Posted onSummit Development, a diversified real estate development company with offices in North Palm Beach, Fla., acquired two marina properties in the Florida Keys – Mangrove Marina in Tavernier and Sombrero Resort and Marina in Marathon.
Summit, which is planning extensive renovations to the properties, acquired the two sites from Sun Vest Communities, the successor to Cay Clubs. No purchase price was announced, but Orion Bank is providing financing for the acquisition and renovation of the two properties, the company said.
Southport, Conn.-based Summit Development said in a statement that it is actively seeking office, retail, residential, hotel and marina opportunities throughout South Florida. The company said it specializes in repositioning underperforming real estate assets.
"It is obvious that the deterioration of these two properties has been a cause for concern. We are well-financed and are confident that we can accomplish a repositioning of the two sites that will once again make them the valuable component of the Keys business community that they can and should be," said Robert Charney, who oversees Summit's Florida operations.
Mangrove Marina has 130 slips as well as rack storage, boatyard facilities, a fuel dock, launch ramp and a ship's store. It is situated on the Intracoastal Waterway and is protected on three sides by mangrove islands.
Sombrero Resort and Marina is midway between Key Largo and Key West, and includes a 54-slip marina as well as 124 one-bedroom condo-style suites and eight detached villas.

When run-ins aren't planned, they are far less likely to go smoothly and civilly. Case in point: shortly after Cameron Diaz split from longtime boyfriend Justin Timberlake, she ran into him at a Golden Globes after-party, flirting with Jessica Biel (who ended up becoming his current longtime girlfriend). Instead of acting like an adult, Cameron freaked out at both Justin and Jessica in front of Hollywood's elite. Oops.

Arsenal fans were not very pleased with the fact that their star Theo Walcott would miss the FIFA World Cup 2014. However, they need not worry now because if The Express are to be believed than the German defensive midfielder is on Madrid's removal list and the North
Londoners are keeping a close eye on his situation.
The player could be sold by European Champions for £16 million. It is surprising, however, to notice that Madrid are planning to sell a player of his calibre but a report in the Spanish paper AS claims that the Spanish giants are very close to landing Toni Kroos. AS can be believed since they are the ones who always bring up Real Madrid news from inside sources.
Khedira would not really mind joining Arsenal since he has three of his international teammates living in London: Lukas Podolski, Per Mertesacker and Mesut Ozil. Also, the player is on good terms with Ozil and their friendship could have some impact on this transfer.

Braised Beef and Mushrooms
From EatingWell.com
Traditional braises usually call for the meat to be browned first to seal in the juices, but here that step is skipped so it can absorb the wonderful taste of mushrooms, which completely permeate the sauce. If you find them, chanterelle mushrooms can be used in place of the shiitakes. Serve with whole-wheat egg noodles or spaetzle and a mixed green salad.

- 4 cup(s) finely diced onions
- 2 clove(s) (large) garlic, crushed and peeled
- 2 tablespoon(s) tomato paste
- 2 tablespoon(s) sweet paprika
- 2 teaspoon(s) chopped fresh marjoram or 1 teaspoon dried
- 4 pound(s) beef chuck, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 teaspoon(s) salt, divided
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
- 2 pound(s) cremini mushrooms, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 cup(s) reduced-sodium beef broth
- 8 large shiitake mushroom caps, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 2-3 teaspoons finely minced fresh tarragon or dill for garnish
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Heat oil and butter in a large heavy casserole or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and cook, stirring, until the onions are soft and beginning to brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in tomato paste, paprika and marjoram.
- Season beef with 1/2 teaspoon salt and plenty of pepper. Add the beef and cremini mushrooms to the pot; gently stir to combine. Add broth and cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid.
- Transfer the pot to the oven and bake until the beef is very tender, 1 3/4 to 2 1/2 hours. Stir in shiitake mushrooms and continue baking, covered, for 15 minutes more. Remove from the oven, uncover and let stand, undisturbed, for about 15 minutes.
- Skim or blot any visible fat from the stew. Transfer the beef and mushrooms to a bowl with a slotted spoon. Return the pot to the stove and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook until the sauce just coats a spoon. Stir the beef, mushrooms and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt into the sauce and heat through, about 1 minute. Serve garnished with tarragon (or dill), if desired.
