found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Stormy!
Facts about Stormy
- Breed: Poodle (Miniature) Mix
- Color: Brown/Chocolate
- Age: Adult
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Stormy's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Stormy is an amazing dog! She was found in a ditch on a rural road during a thunderstorm. She had a mammary tumor, which was removed and she has made a full recovery. Our vet estimated Stormy to be 4-6 years old, she plays with toys like a puppy, and is a very sweet girl. She is spayed, tested heartworm negative and current on vaccinations. Stormy's adoption fee is $375. Please email firstname.lastname@example.com for more information and adoption application.
Other Pets at Carrie's Pet Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Stormy, a Monroe Poodle (Miniature) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Poodle (Miniature) for sale in Monroe, or seeking a Poodle (Miniature) dog from a breeder in Monroe.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Monroe already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Monroe breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Poodle (Miniature) breeders who help with Poodle (Miniature) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Monroe paves the way for another one to be saved.

Know how to use "fewer" and "less"? Find out.
Old English forgiefan "give, grant, allow; forgive," also "to give up" and "to give in marriage;" from for- "completely" + giefan "give" (see give). The modern sense of "to give up desire or power to punish" is from use of the compound as a Germanic loan-translation of Latin perdonare (cf. Old Saxon fargeban, Dutch vergeven, German vergeben, Gothic fragiban; see pardon). Related: Forgave; forgiven; forgiving.

I'm liking this a lot! Must go get the novel now... Agree with the Yay PDF!
I love the stopping point... and the "shortest adventuring career ever" bit... Look out! *SPLAT* ... uh... Simeon, you okay?
I can imagine the GM: Okay, just roll up a new first level character, and we'll start from here...
Favorite line: "Rodrick was standing over—or, rather, in—his dead friend." Scrape that character off your boot and move on!

Mandel, who is running for the U.S. Senate seat in Ohio, was the first endorsement given by U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, who is very careful with his endorsements. And on Thursday, Mandel got a huge plug from former Gov. Jeb Bush, who represents the gold standard in GOP politics. Bush sees Mandel as crucial to gaining Republican control of the U.S. Senate. "Josh is the real deal. I mean he's a very energetic, very conservative, very smart guy," said Bush during an exclusive Newsmax interview. – NewsMax

Yes, you should be able to do that - at least I just did it. In my example, my sftp chrooted user is "test", and the homedir is /home/test (which is owned by root, per sftp root reqmts) and the subdir "data" is the sftp area for the user.
Put something like this in your smb.conf
Code:[testdata] comment = user test's sftp data path = /home/test/data valid users = test browseable = no guest ok = no writable = yes printable = no

Our Campaign
Supporting new and renovated libraries, 2009 - present
The Palo Alto Library Foundation has launched a $4 million campaign to fill our three new and renovated libraries and one new community center with all the things that make them work. Our job is to raise enough money to buy books, computers, bookshelves, tables, and chairs. Please make a generous gift today!
At this time, we have one library closed for construction. We're raising money to be sure that when each renovated library reopens, there will be plenty of chairs for people to sit down, enough shelves for the books to be displayed, and lots more computers. The city cannot use the Measure N bond money to pay for what goes inside the building, so please help these important projects succeed by making a generous gift today.
Here are the items we need in our new libraries:
Our modern libraries need modern furniture that is durable, accessible, and designed to meet the needs of thousands of patrons.
We need dozens more computers, electronic displays, download stations, and conference equipment for our new libraries.
We hope to provide thousands of new books, DVDs, and electronic resources in the Mitchell Park Library when it reopens in 2012.

Five years ago, I did a clumsy thing. I tripped going down some stairs and broke my wrist and the elbow on the same arm. This was after breaking my other wrist the year before.
The fracture in my wrist was set without any problem, but my elbow was a mess. The doctor tried to get it back in place. No luck. I then had to have surgery. My elbow was kind of crushed and just didn't go back together well. It healed slowly and is weak and it hurts to this day. I guess when you get older, you don't heal as well.
When I woke up after surgery, did I ever have a surprise! My new granddaughter had been born in the same hospital. I convinced the nurses to let me go to the fifth floor to see her. What a crazy day.

So the Wii U, a console which every "hardcore gamer" seems to be dismissing, appears to be doing ok. Yes Nintendo's new home console, which has begun the 8th generation of console gaming (it counts so no arguing), has so far sold 3.06 million units since its launch back in November. Nintendo originally aimed to sell 5.5 million additional Wii U's by end of March, but has since revised its target to 4 million. As for software sales, Nintendo have sold 11.69 million, with Nintendo Land and New Super Mario Bros. U being the bestselling games with 2.33 and 2.01 million sales respectively.
It seems the system is doing fairly well for itself, and although Nintendo are disappointed by some of figures, they are well on their way to achieve their newly revised figures. But seeing as this year we expect revels of more next generation systems, such as the new Xbox or PS4, will Nintendo be able to compete?

Jeremy Evans' Top 10 Dunks
Is Jeremy Evans the most unknown NBA Slam Dunk Contest winner of all-time? It sure seems like it, and that's probably because he's played 129 minutes this season for Utah after playing 217 the year previous. His one, no-brainer skill is dunking, a feat that doesn't lend itself to a major roll for coach Tyrone Corbin but is a centerpiece of this year's 2013 NBA All-Star Game's Slam Dunk Contest.

LaBomb says: "Um..I have a question. My friend is getting married in August and for dessert is have rugelach. She is looking for a creative way to present them. She is having an outdoor wedding in Connecticut with a blue grass band and organic local food. I figured you're very creative and could be helpful. I'm fresh out of creativity this morning."

A recap on last nights Beer Summit at the White House
Nothing like a casual brewski between friends—or a highly orchestrated "beer summit" in the White House Rose Garden between the president, a scholar and the cop who arrested him. Yes, the presidential happy hour finally happened. Two weeks after noted black scholar Henry Louis "Skip" Gates accused Cambridge (Mass.) Police Sgt. James Crowley of racial profiling for arresting him at his home near Harvard University, the men clinked mugs of beer Thursday evening with President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden. Obama's beer of choice? Bud Light. Crowley, meanwhile, chose Blue Moon. Sitting at a round table, the men also munched peanuts and pretzels out of silver bowls—as TV cameramen and reporters were kept 50 feet away, after being allowed to view the meeting for less than a minute. The president's aides hoped the "summit" would convey a hopeful message about race relations in this country, and turn down the temperature on an incident that has become "so hyped and so symbolic." At a press conference following the meeting, Sgt. Crowley called it "cordial and productive" and said that he and Gates would meet again.
Am Edition of the Hotness
As mentioned today we start the AM edition of the Hotness. Today's hotness comes to us via Pam101 Fan #25! The first AM hotness is...Kombucha! Here is what #25 says about Kombucha "it is a fermented chilled tea..It is fizzy and delicious... A perfect summer thirst quencher".

Victoria vs Summit
From Marc Malkin with E!:
Rachelle Lefevre and Summit Entertainment's fangs are retracting a little bit today—at least in public, that is.
I'm told the actress formerly known as Twilight's Victoria isn't planning on releasing any more statements like the one she sent me yesterday. Same for Summit—the corporate lips are sealed.
Why? Because now the bloody mess is apparently being hashed out by lawyers.
What's on the table? Read on to find out…
In short, Lefevre wants her money. Summit is arguing she's due nothing because the studio insists she's in breach of contract for signing on for the indie flick Barney's Version.
"Rachelle's contract says she's allowed to do smaller projects like Barney's Version," one source said.
Meanwhile, her Twilight and New Moon costars are "devastated," said another source. "As nice and lovely as Bryce [Dallas Howard] is, they feel like a family member has been taken from them."
But don't expect them to go public with too much anti-Summit talk. As my gossiping cohorts over at The Awful Truth point out, Lefevre's dismissal sends a very strong message—or warning—not to mess with the studio.
Sources also tell me that shortly after Summit announced Lefevre's dismissal, the rest of the cast was told not to elaborate on the circumstances to the media, beyond repeating that it was due to a scheduling conflict.
"But that was before the Rachelle and Summit statements yesterday," a Twilight insider said. "Who knows what they'll ask them to say now."
We are changing things up at Pam101
A recent Pam101 fan (number 25!) came up with a brilliant idea and when Pam101 fans speak…I listen. Starting tomorrow the team here at Pam101 World HQ's is going to be having an AM and PM dose of the hotness. Please send me your ideas and photos of anything that you think is hotness worthy. I'll thank you all when I win a Webby.
Pam101's thoughts on the SOB Michael Vick
I have strong feelings about Michael Vick. Guy is cruel, vicious and an ass and should never work in the NFL again. Saying that I really liked this piece by Peggy Drexler. Read it.
I'm Julia Child....Bon Appetit!
It is no secret that I am big foodie! I love all the details that are involved in making a great meal. I love it even more if I am cooking for friends and family (you all can hire me for your next event, I do have my own little business…holla). Being that I am a lover of all things related to food, I am very excited about the upcoming release of Julie and Julia. The NY Times had a great piece and slideshow in yesterday's paper (sorry for the delay in my post). Click HERE for the interactive slideshow. It is worth it! Bon Appétit!
Best Bachelorette Party Ever!

Hotness of the Day

Oh'snap! Summit studios fire back at Victoria aka Rachelle's statement.
Summit's full statement:
We at Summit Entertainment are disappointed by Rachelle Lefevre's recent comments which attempt to make her career choices the fault of the Studio. Her decision to discuss her version of the scheduling challenges publicly has forced the Studio to set the record straight and correct the facts.
- Ms. Lefevre's representatives were advised as early as April that THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE was expected to start shooting in early August.
- If Ms. Lefevre was, as she describes "passionate," about being part of THE TWILIGHT SAGA, we feel that she and her representatives would have included us in her decision to work on another film that would conflict with the shooting schedule of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE.
- It was not until July 20th that Summit was first informed of Ms. Lefevre's commitment to BARNEY'S VERSION, a commitment we have since been advised she accepted in early June. Summit had acted in good faith that she would be available to fulfill her obligations both in terms of rehearsals and shooting availability for THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE. We feel that her choice to withhold her scheduling conflict information from us can be viewed as a lack of cooperative spirit which affected the entire production.
- Furthermore Ms. Lefevre took a role in the other film that places her in Europe during the required rehearsal time, and at least ten days of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE's principal photography. This period is essential for both rehearsal time with the cast, and for filming at key locations that are only available during the initial part of production.
- Contrary to Ms. Lefevre's statement, it is simply untrue that the Studio dismissed her over a ten day overlap. It is not about a ten day overlap, but instead about the fact that THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE is an ensemble production that has to accommodate the schedules of numerous actors while respecting the established creative vision of the filmmaker and most importantly the story. The fact remains that Ms. Lefevre's commitment to the other project – which she chose to withhold from Summit until the last possible moment – makes her unfortunately unavailable to perform the role of Victoria in THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE
Get ready for baby 4!
And here is the statement
Uh-Oh....is there more to it than scheduling conflicts?
As Twilight aficionados already know, Summit Entertainment announced last night that fellow ginger gal Bryce Dallas Howard will replace Lefevre as Victoria in the just-about-to-start-shooting Eclipse.
Official reason is scheduling conflicts, but money may be a part of the problem, too...
First up, Lefevre got a hefty pay increase for the vampire franchise's third installment, according to sources.
Then she snagged a role in Barney's Version, an indie flick costarring Paul Giamatti, which she planned to film between the New Moon and upcoming Eclipse shoots.
But then, I'm told, Lefevre's Eclipse schedule with director David Slade was tweaked and overlapped with Barney's Version.
"Summit could have made it work," one source says. "But they saw that they could save a lot of money by recasting her. This could get really messy."

I wonder if JLove makes Jamie Kennedy pretend to be Edward Cullen?
"Who's not Team Edward?" she asked MTV News at Comic-Con, where she and her "Ghost Whisperer" co-stars talked about the fifth season of their supernatural CBS series. "There is not a girl in the world who's not Team Edward! Have you met girls who are not Team Edward? Well, they are not girls! They're aliens from another planet who should not be allowed to exist."
Unfortunately for Hewitt, she didn't get a chance to meet Robert Pattinson at Comic-Con, but at the same time, she isn't sure she'd have the capabilities to handle an encounter with him in the flesh. "I'd pass out. I can't talk about it, 'cause I'd pass out," she said. "It's because he's Edward. Listen, Edward can fly you through the forest. He's like Aladdin with vampire teeth — there's magic-carpet rides. He can sing. He can watch you sleep. He plays music. He sniffs your neck. I mean, please!"
After stunning loss, Phelps rebounds with record
ROME – Now that's more like it. Michael Phelps bounced back from a stunning loss with something more familiar — another world record Wednesday.
One night after he was soundly beaten by Germany's Paul Biedermann, Phelps set a world record in the 200-meter butterfly with a time of 1 minute, 51.51 seconds — more than a half-second ahead of his previous mark, 1:52.03.
Phelps whipped around quickly to see his time and held up his right index finger when the "WR" was posted. And just like Beijing, he has taken down another Mark Spitz's standards, this time with the 34th world record of his career — one more than Spitz had during his brilliant run in the pool.

Apparently, tanning beds are as bad for you as asbestos, arsenic, radium, and cigarettes. The ultraviolet light in the beds causes cancer, according to a new report by the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer. The Los Angeles Times reports that, according to the study, using tanning beds before age 30 increases a person's risk of skin cancer by 75 percent. More importantly, the special committee that conducted the review concluded that all UV radiation induces cancer, not just UV-B rays, as was previously thought, but also the UV-A rays that some tanning salons claim are safer. No one has to commit to a colorless future, though: The American Cancer Society suggests the use of bronzing creams as a safe alternative.
Burgers, Beer and Karaoke

Will Twilight-ers welcome Bryce?
LOS ANGELES — Bryce Dallas Howard is sinking her teeth into a role in the "Twilight" series.
Howard has been cast as the vampire Victoria in "Eclipse," the third film in the franchise.
She's taking over for Rachelle Lefevre (la-FAVE), who played the part in the first two movies, the 2008 smash "Twilight" and the upcoming "New Moon." Summit Entertainment says Lefevre isn't returning because of scheduling conflicts.
The 28-year-old Howard is no stranger to blockbusters, having co-starred in "Spider-Man 3" and "Terminator Salvation." She also appeared in "The Village" and "Lady in the Water."
"Eclipse," based on the third book in Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight" saga, is scheduled to begin shooting in Vancouver in August. Part two, "New Moon," comes out Nov. 20.

Freakin Hilarious!!
We all know Mad Men's Jon Hamm is a dreamboat. Tall, Handsome, great smile...but Best Week Ever has the funniest post on him!
Here is a little nugget from the site. Read it then click link at end.
Jon Hamm has a lot to be happy about. The third season of Mad Men is kicking off in a couple of weeks; he was nominated for two Emmy Awards for his work on Mad Men and 30 Rock; and he's very likely the Second Coming of Christ. So if anyone deserves a vacation, it's him. And thanks to one of our beloved readers, who clearly stalks the actor in the most well-meaning way possible (Ed. Note: I don't think I'm talking about myself but who knows…), we've been sent these exclusive photos of Jon Hamm trying his best not to be handsome while on vacation.

Hillary's Hot Suits
Nigella Lawson's Watermelon, Feta and Black Olive Salad
As improbable as it might sound, this combination is utterly fantastic, both savory and refreshing at the same time. Yield: Serves 8.
• 1 small red onion
• 2–4 limes, depending on juiciness
• 3½ pounds sweet, ripe watermelon
• 9 ounces feta cheese
• bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley
• bunch fresh mint, chopped
• 3–4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 4 ounces (½ cup) pitted black olives
• black pepper
Peel and halve the red onion and cut into very fine half-moons and put in a small bowl to steep with the lime juice, to bring out the transparent pinkness in the onions and diminish their rasp. Two limes' worth should do it, but you can find the fruits disappointingly dried up and barren when you cut them in half, in which case add more.
Remove the rind and seeds from the watermelon, and cut into approximately l 3/4-inch triangular chunks, if that makes sense (math is not my strong point). Cut the feta into similar sized pieces and put them both into a large, wide shallow bowl. Tear off sprigs of parsley so that it is used like a salad leaf, rather than a garnish, and add to the bowl along with the chopped mint.
Tip the now glowingly puce onions, along with their pink juices, over the salad in the bowl, add the oil and olives, then using your hands toss the salad very gently so that the feta and melon don't lose their shape. Add a good grinding of black pepper and taste to see whether the dressing needs more lime.

Pam101's Ellen Campaign-Day 8
Grey's Update
The cast of Grey's Anatomy was back to work on set in LA yesterday. The group was filming a funeral scene for George O'Malley who everyone knows is off the show especially after his dramatic EW cover last week. Fresh off a successful weekend at the box office, Katherine Heigl was back in the thick of playing Izzie Stevens as a cancer survivor. Despite the grueling 17-hour days, Katherine looked happy to be back with all her costars. Ellen Pompeo's baby bump is going to be impossible to ignore when the show is back in the Fall and she looked perfectly cute in her tight black dress as she and Katherine were engrossed in their phones between takes. It wasn't all about the women however — Justin Chambers and Patrick Dempsey also acted in the scenes to pay their respects to George.
Thanks PopSugar
Cal U's colors are red and black!

Mrs. Obama wore a sheath with a white skirt, black bodice, and red ribbon belt. Her hair was worn down and elegantly slicked back.
The president looked perfectly in sync with his wife, wearing a black suit, white shirt, and red tie. If only all matters of diplomacy could be so smooth.

Hotness of the Day
I've been trying to find my inspiration for daily hotness as I do every morning on my way to work. I've been looking at everyone trying to see if something catches my eye. Well...as I was blackberrying this AM I spotted the daily hotness. It was on me the whole time. No, its not my great personality or brilliant smile it is... red nail polish. It adds a fun pop of color and it makes using my bb more enjoyable as little blobs of red flicker on the keys.

500 Days of Summer Review
I loved 500 Days of Summer. It had all the little nuggets I love in a movie. Happy, Sad, beautiful shots of a city, perfect apartments, a fantastic soundtrack and fantastic fashion.
This is an offbeat romantic comedy about a woman, Summer (Deschanel) who doesn't believe true love exists, and the young man, Tom (Gordon-Levitt) who falls for her.
Costume designer, Hope Hanafin, totally hit a home run. I swear because of this movie I want to wear all vintage and retro. Deschanel, shines in her funky pieces and Gordon-Levitt wears suits better than anyone out there.
The soundtrack for 500 Days is top notch. These songs build bridges between Tom and Summer and they tear them down," director Marc Webb told PLA"Music is the soul of this movie." From Hall & Oates' infectious ditty "You Make My Dreams Come True" to The Smiths "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out," you'll no doubt leave the theater with at least one tune stuck in your head.
It is a summer must see.
I love beets

Film review
Femme Fatale
DIRECTED BY Patty Jenkins
STARRING Charlize Theron, Christina Ricci
Opens April 2, Cert 15, 109 mins
Apparently, this writer wasn't the only one who spent the first few minutes of Monster wondering when Charlize Theron was going to make an appearance on screen. Her physical transformation into the role of Aileen Wuornos, serial killer in the making, must be the most drastic since De Niro's bloated gross-out in Raging Bull. With disfiguring dentures, 30 pounds of flab and a complexion like decaying gorgonzola, there isn't a trace of the glamorous, blonde Charlize we've come to know and not take much notice of. Theron's track record hasn't suggested bold artistic ambition, but as the Oscar voters recognised, there's a desperate intensity about her performance here that hints at a giant hinterland waiting to be discovered.
Wuornos, a homeless prostitute, was convicted in 1992 for killing six men, and had become a national cause célèbre by the time of her execution in Florida in 2002, as well as the subject of two documentaries by Nick Broomfield.
Writer/director Patty Jenkins' dramatisation rewinds to the period leading up to her transformation from hooker to murderer, and conveys an authentic sense of a squalid and marginal life rolling inexorably towards a morbid end. It isn't comfortable viewing. The subject matter is ugly, Wuornos' relationship with friend Selby Wall (Christina Ricci) is corroded by a sense of impending disaster, and Theron plays Wuornos as a feral, barely socialised character. Loud, ugly and probably mentally unstable, she squares up to men in bars with a strutting, square-shouldered swagger that would send Mike Tyson fleeing into the night. Ricci subtly plays Wall as a misfit-soulmate who's holding enough of herself back to value her own preservation above Wuornos', and Aileen's loyalty to her emerges as her one redeeming trait.
Jenkins' touch is mostly assured, but she skates on thin ice by making a facile join-the-dots connection between Wuornos' broken, abused background and her multiple killings. Wuornos is driven to kill her first victim when he rapes and beats her, which trips her into a nothing-to-lose slaughter-fest. But Jenkins' equation that prostitution+violent men=mass murder is too simplistic, more like a care-worker's lament than true dramatic insight.
Still, this is a breakthrough for Theron, and mostly the film grips with alligator jaws.

I was just reading in the other thread about the suspicion that Jiro leads to seed development in other nearby Asian persimmons. What other varieties should I avoid (or isolate) if I want to avoid seeded fruit? I'd be particularly curious about Hana Fuyu, Wase Fuyu, 20th century, Sheng, Smith's Best, Kyungsun Ban si, Giombo, Saijo, Izu, Tecumseh, Gwang Yang, Tam Kam... Any of those known to produce male flowers? |

I have 20th century grafted to Chocolate.. it produced all male flowers this year. I don't know if the stock had a role in that or not. Persimmons do very strange things, just when I think I get it some other strange thing happens. This year a graft looked like it was going to die, the leaves all yellowed and crinkled, but then it decided it wanted to live after all and parts of it took off again. Scott |
- Posted by cousinfloyd NC 7 (My Page) on Fri, Nov 8, 13 at 21:33
I had a similar graft this year. I grafted Nikita's gift about 5' high on a wild volunteer. The graft pushed out some small new growth but then basically just sat there all year. There was maybe 1/2" of new shoot growth all of the leaves of which weren't more than 1-1/2" in diameter altogether. Then about early September it decided to take off and suddenly put on thick new growth that grew about a foot. I think it was all too new and tender to survive even the freezes we've had so far, but I'm hoping I've still got some viable buds on the earlier growth. |
Hanafuyu does produce some male blooms so can cause others to be seedy however I have never found over one or two seed in only a small percentage of the fruit. Jiro grown alone should be seedless. I like the very large size of hanafuyu so much that an occasional seed is not a bother though I know others may not agree. |

text: Despite the widespread idea of Italy as a sunny, warm country, winter is a long season here in the Italian Apennines and a layer of snow covers the highest peaks from October-November through April. On a crisp winter morning strong winds were blowing on the summit of Mt. Velino, the third highest peak in the Apennines. The unrelenting wind, the extremely cold temperatures and the barren snow landscape seemed lifeless. Still, the tiny shape of a Griffon vulture soaring in the landscape brought a spark of life back to it. And I, as usual, felt humbled by the ease that wildlife often show, even in the most challenging situations.

In the context of this slideshow "dated" could very well mean "went on one date and decided to just be friends" which is likely what happened between these two. Still, look at them! I think they make a rather matchy-matchy couple. And the affection between them remains, as Winona gave her first TV interview in six years on Jimmy's show.

Polo Star Nacho Figueras's Stylish Home
Ralph Lauren model and polo sensation Nacho Figueras creates a modern family home outside Buenos Aires
By Jeffrey Slonim
The facturas, or Argentine tea cakes, served at the home of international polo star Nacho Figueras and his wife, Delfina Blaquier, are fluffy and light with creamy dulce de leche centers. No wonder they are a favorite of guests, not to mention the couples children, Hilario, 10, and Aurora, 5though Artemio is still too tiny to enjoy them.
Tea is taken on the terrace, with views of a polo field beyond. Figuerass low, modernist house is located 45 minutes from downtown Buenos Aires, in an area that has become an epicenter of the sport, with literally hundreds of fields. You could buy a place here and not play polo, says Figueras, the cofounder of the Ralph Laurensponsored Blackwatch team, who also stars in ads for the designers menswear and colognes. But why would you?

A group has allegedly already hacked Ubisoft's new hugely controversial DRM system for its PC games.
The DRM system, which requires users to be connected to the internet at all times during gameplay (there is no offline option), was included in submarine sim Silent Hunter 5 when it released in the US yesterday.
But a team of crackers claims (via Kotaku) that those who download its pirated version need only "Install game and copy crack, it's that simple!" So basically, the complete opposite of those who bought the game legitimately.
The DRM system is set to be included in Splinter Cell: Conviction and Assassin's Creed II, though for the latter Ubisoft's already released a patch that tones it down a bit, allowing gameplay to be resumed at exactly the point it ended in the event of a loss of internet connection.
UPDATE: Ubisoft has issued a statement to CVG: "You have probably seen rumors on the web that Assassin's Creed II and Silent Hunter 5 have been cracked.
"Please know that this rumor is false and while a pirated version may seem to be complete at start up, any gamer who downloads and plays a cracked version will find that their version is not complete"

Remember how everybody was upset that Global Warming wasn't in any of the debates? Now all of a sudden that's all everybody is talking about, it's Global Warming this and Global warming that.
On Bloomberg Businessweek's cover it even says, 'It's Global Warming Stupid', which is the opposite of our slogan 'It's stupid to politicize the weather'. Some are saying this might be the edge that Obama needs to win this election, because he wins on this issue.
The funny thing about the Bloomberg piece is in the first paragraph the author says this:
"Climate deniers exploit scientific complexity to avoid any discussion at all."
Translation: Those Skeptics use fancy words!
So he's saying it's the skeptics that are using complex scientific terminology, while people like Tom Brokaw just speak in platitudes and hope the mind numbed public will be scared enough into voting for Obama once again.
Brokaw says:
"I get why people would want to live right on the sea, that's understandable. I lived on the ocean in California and there's nothing quite like it. But now, because of climate change, and let's be clear about this: We have climate change under way. Global warming, that's another question that should be addressing as well. A vast majority of the meteorologists and scientists in the country, and in the world who study these kind of events have concluded that there is global warming and obviously we do have climate change. So, we have to plan for the future based on these realities, Andrea, and this is a huge wake up call."
Wow, now that's some heady stuff.
Suspicious Timing
The timing on this couldn't have been better, it makes global warming the top issue once again and moves the Benghazi fiasco to page 17. It's almost like it was planned and maybe it was.
Did you know that Obama back in 2009 ordered DHS to control hurricanes and Bill Gates that same year applied for 5 patents on controlling hurricanes?
HAARP is thought to be able to able to control hurricanes, there is a site devoted to watching HAARP activity here is what it says HAARP was doing on the day the Sandy hit shore.
On their website it says that anything 10 and above can cause hurricanes and blizzards, just sayin'.
And let's not forget that Bloomberg would profit greatly from Carbon Taxes.
Of course actual scientists are saying that Sandy proves nothing, we've had worse before.

Girls lacrosse, Novato, sophomore
Novato wasn't the best team in the MCAL this season, that honor went to Marin Catholic which was unbeaten in league play. But when the coaches convened after the season and picked the best player in the league, they couldn't ignore the dominance of Weidner.
"She's a difference maker and everyone takes notice when she is on the field," Novato coach Rory Daly said of Weidner, who finished with 108 goals and 59 assists. "Everyone game-planned for her. Everyone double- and triple-teamed her. She was the focal point and she still had a season for the ages."
Weidner helped the Hornets finish second in the MCAL then led the team to the quarterfinals of the North Coast Section Division I tournament. With a large group of freshmen and sophomores on the 2013 team, Weidner and the Hornets have high hopes for the future.
"We definitely are getting better and we have a lot to prove in the next couple years," Weidner said. "I realized I was getting double-teamed and I wasn't used to facing that. But it was OK. That's when you look for the open goals and try to get assists."
Weidner said one of her most memorable moments came in a victory over San Marin. She passed to teammate Anna Schultz, who scored the first goal of her varsity career. "I got the assist, she got the goal and she was so excited she jumped into my arms. It was a great feeling."
Daly said the story perfectly illustrates Weidner's attitude on the field.
"She's the best player, but there is no attitude. She listens to coaches and teammates," Daly said. "And she never gets nervous. Before our biggest games, she could tell I was nervous and she would come up to me and say something like, 'Don't worry, we got this.' And she was right."

On-Campus Recruiting Schedule and Tips
The following are steps for success when visiting an on-campus recruiter. We hope you find these tips useful and you take it seriously when you meet with a recruiter. Good luck in your job search, and don't forget to make a great first impression!
On-Campus Recruitment Schedule
- Use this opportunity to meet with the recruiters in person. This is a great chance for you to network with different companies before they look at your resume. Learn about the positions that may be available to you.
- Recruiters are located on the first floor of the Commons (COM) building, outside of javajazz.
- Recruiting visits are Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
- On-campus recruiting schedules are advertised on the T.V. monitors located in the student center.
Make a Positive First Impression
- Dressing for success is important. Dress in professional business attire or opt for business casual (khakis and a nice shirt). Be clean and use deodorant liberally. Your appearance really does matter. How you present yourself in terms of dress and grooming can be a deciding factor in whether or not you get an interview or get the job. Stop by the Career Development Center and pick up current handouts regarding proper dress, etiquette, resume guidelines and interview guidelines.
Business Etiquette
- Remember to communicate clearly and introduce yourself to the recruiter in a personable way. Learn to listen well and carry on interesting conversations. This takes practice. A perfect place to practice your conversation skills is when meeting and visiting with a recruiter. Maintain an appropriate space between you and the recruiter and remember to be at ease and confident.
- The purpose of networking is for people to connect with people. When you approach a recruiter, think of it as an opportunity to market yourself for free. Strive to be friendly, interested in the company, and relaxed. Meeting employers can be intimidating, but if you make a positive impression and establish a relationship with them, you will stand out and get noticed.
A Great Resume
- A resume should be thought of as a way to "sell" yourself to employers before they even meet you. Since you will have the opportunity to meet the recruiter in person, we recommend you bring along a current resume to leave behind with the recruiter. Your resume should showcase your work skills and experience.
Recruiters' Websites
- Research the companies before they arrive on campus by going to their website. Familiarize yourself with what a company does and what kinds of positions are available. In other words, have a little knowledge about them.
- It is important to remember to send the recruiter a thank-you or follow-up letter. Take the recruiter's business card with you before you leave in order to send the letter to the appropriate address. If you forget, just call the company and ask for the recruiter's address. It is extremely important to thank them for their time and to reiterate your interest in the company.

Arcane Brilliance: On mage healing and other miscellany
Since those heady, halcyon days of 2004, when mages began to walk to wilds of Azeroth and players were introduced to their glass cannon awesomeness, the topic of mage healing has from time to time emerged, poking its strange and intriguing head up into the mage conversation and usually disappearing just as quickly. The idea has precedence. Healers in Final Fantasy lore are called White Mages. More recently, Dragon Age has its Spirit Mages. Archetypal wizards have had access to magical healing in one form or another throughout fantasy gaming and literature, though rarely is it their strongest focus.
And just lately, the idea has been gaining some unprecedented traction among the WoW mage community. Recently, I've seen the concept presented with consideration and clarity on the official forums, among my own contemporaries in-game, and even right here in the comments section of this very column. It bears thinking about. Though the idea is extremely unlikely to ever be implemented, its increasing popularity and the improving practicality with which its proponents conceptualize it warrant attention. Mage healing, whenever it is brought up, is immediately interesting and always at least a little bit tantalizing, even for its most vehement opponents.
Like me.
