56 Evatt to Beasley and Makin
Cablegram UND12 CANBERRA, 26 January 1946
You will appreciate the very different emphasis in the draft terms contained in our telegram No. 11. [1] We would never be forgiven if arrangements for Pacific bases were made except in conjunction with the overall arrangement for mutual defence. There is a tendency on the part of United States to isolate such questions from one another when really they are part and parcel of the same broad question as to the future Pacific set up. For the same reason it should be pointed out that we must resist any discussions of territorial adjustments in the Pacific except as a whole and in our presence.
I am sure that Peter Fraser will appreciate the supreme importance and significance of this matter and I would show him our telegram No. 11.
It would be most helpful if the Conference could be held in Australia.

After much hype, fanfare and fuss, the Halo: Reach beta has finally arrived.
Bungie's FPS had a few technical problems as everyone jumped on the servers at the same time, bringing proceedings to a grinding halt. Yet the problems have mostly cleared and dedicated fans have been able to get a taste of Halo: Reach.
So now the question is... what do you guys think of it? Do you think Bungie has done a good job of reinventing the Halo formula to keep it fresh or is there a slight whiff of stale FPS in the air? Here are a few of our quick impressions for now:
What We Liked
Pistol - Halo fans have been crying for the return of the Halo 1 pistol since... well, since Halo 1. And despite claims that the pistol is back to being awesome, it's never really matched how it was back in Halo 1. We're now at Halo: Reach and guess what? The pistol is back to being awesome! And this time, it really, really just might be.
Jetpacks - Because they're jetpacks. Everyone loves jetpacks. If we had to expand with a proper reason, then jetpacks add a whole new element to Halo, as you have to account for threats appearing from below or players who can suddenly fly away during battle, dropping grenades from above... it changes the dynamics and makes the maps a lot more interesting.
New Game Modes - It must be hard to come up with new game modes given how many FPS games are out there and how many developers strive to make theirs different. Still, with Team SWAT, Headhunter and Stockpile, Bungie has found three new engaging modes that work well within the Halo universe.
What We Didn't Like
Assassinations - They seemed quite cool when we saw them in the trailer. Yet it just doesn't really work with Halo. The bash on the back of the head was quite satisfying already and replacing it with a canned animation seems like a needless move into Aliens vs Predator territory.
Different Loadouts - One of the appeals of the Halo series is that while Call of Duty and its ilk started placing an emphasis on what weapons you choose before you start fighting, Halo placed everyone on a level footing. Now, choosing the right armour is one such example of what can make a huge difference. It might ultimately add another layer of depth to the FPS but it's a shame to see Halo loses one of its purest traits.
Needler Rifle - Some of the new weapons are quite cool (see Designated Marksman Rifle) but others, such as the strange Needler rifle, seem... pointless. Still, this balances out the return of the Halo 1 pistol, so swings and roundabouts.
What do you like and dislike about the Halo: Reach beta based on what you've played so far? Let us know in the comments section below!

October 1, 2004, 4:00 AM
By Thomas Kelly
Morty grabs me at the Tel Aviv airport, and the first thing I notice about Israel is the abundance of guns. Ordnance is everywhere. Uzi-toting guys at the doors, M16's carried jauntily by teens waiting at bus stops, 9mm's riding high on the hips of the Joe Citizens gassing up at the local filling station. After dumping my stuff in a Tel Aviv hotel, we drive out to the police station off the road to Jerusalem where Morty has his office. Here, he's a precinct of one.
We park, and as we cross the walled compound, we pass a dozen men sitting dusty and listless, clinging to the scant shade along the wall. "Illegal workers," Morty says. They watch us pass, still with the patience of the truly poor. We enter a corridor where two signs hang; one in Hebrew points in one direction, and the other says simply NYPD with an arrow.
Morty's office is small and contains a desk and two chairs. On the wall are various citations, portraits of Commissioner Kelly and Deputy Cohen, and a picture of Morty taken when Mayor Bloomberg visited to show support after a particularly bad suicide bombing that killed New Yorkers. This is where he hangs his hat, but Morty the cop doesn't sit still well. He needs to be out there. He checks the e-mail from the NYPD and off we go. Morty plans to take me around to meet his various contacts, and if an "event" — as they blandly label suicide bombings here — happens, we'll go.
We stop first in the office of the post commander, a man of middle years who is put together like a collection of bowling balls and has the hardest blue eyes I have ever seen. He's polite in a guarded way and is wearing a polo shirt with an NYPD logo on it. He says flat out he doesn't trust the press, and he wonders why the hell Morty might, then asks that I don't use his name, and I say sure, half out of it doesn't really matter and half out of the fact that he looks like the kind of guy who snaps spines the way you might snap a carrot stick. We chat about New York and the importance of having this face-to-face interaction on a daily basis, of human intelligence, of relationships, how much more effective it is to have an agent in the field rather than sitting thousands of miles away being informed by fax and e-mail and phone. The talk turns to the past problems of noncooperation between American agencies, coincidentally one reason behind Morty's deployment. The commander gets wide-eyed. He shakes his head. "You have to know what's going on with all groups. They have a responsibility to let people know."
I ask a question I will ask all week: What about suicide bombings in New York, or L. A., or at a grain silo seventy miles south of Des Moines?
"You don't need more than ten kilos of explosive to empty New York. It would only take two suicide attacks to change New York forever."
I'm thinking he's right. One in a department store and another, say, on a bridge to Brooklyn. I ask how we might prevent such a thing.
"You can't strictly copy the Israeli way. You can't put a security guard in every doorway. Take some tactics and strategy from us and adjust them to New York."
Tactics and strategy. Be smart. It's a mantra I will hear continuously in Israel. As we get up to leave, the commander says, "The best intelligence in the world is no good buried in a computer."
Morty's beeper is constantly buzzing at his side. Usually it describes sightings of suspicious characters, possible infiltrators, but this time it tells about a woman and her four children ambushed and shot dead in Gaza. The woman was a settler, and she was eight months pregnant, so the attackers made sure to fire a final shot into her stomach, killing the fetus. It's a dirty war, all right. But this happened in the Gaza Strip, territory controlled by the Israeli Defense Forces, and Morty's interaction is strictly with the police within the state of Israel, cop to cop. Still, this will ratchet up the tension level everywhere. Morty shakes his head. "There will be retaliation."
He is a long way from the streets of New York, but he is stationed right where you want to be to get a Ph.D. in counterterrorism. When Kelly decided to expand the NYPD's security perimeter to Israel, Mordecai Dzikansky was a natural choice.
As a rabbi's kid growing up in Brooklyn, Morde- cai never dreamed of becoming a cop. Nice Jewish boys, even ones reared in the ethnically diverse projects of Canarsie, were meant for higher rungs on the American ladder. Their mothers saw to that. Running around the streets with guns, no matter on what side of the law, was best left to others. But when Morty was only seven, his mother died of cancer, and maybe that's the key. If the mother does not die, Morty is probably living out on Long Island, another second-generation economic success story, trading in the Jag every two years, making sure his tony neighbors' arteries flow cleanly. Instead, he ends up muddling in a city college, half-assing his way through two years of accounting. One day playing basketball, he sees a flyer seeking to recruit more Jews for that most Catholic of institutions, the NYPD. Morty, figuring he's not cut out for office life, takes the test. His father the rabbi assures him it is an honorable profession. To friends and relatives, he becomes Morty the cop.
Soon he's pounding a beat in Brooklyn and proudly, even a bit defiantly, wearing his yarmulke always. When Jesse Jackson famously declares New York "Hymie Town" during the 1984 presidential campaign, Morty gets assigned the foot post outside Jackson's Brooklyn HQ. "I wanted the good reverend to see the biggest Jew in New York with a gun," he says. Morty is fluent in Hebrew, and soon he is cherry-picked, assigned to cases on which the language is another tool, helping lock up Israeli drug gangs and money launderers. Later, during the nineties, there is a raft of Torah thefts, and Morty gains minor celebrity as the lead investigator of the Torah Task Force, bringing the crooks to heel. All of this led to homicide, the apex for detectives, and finally to the fight against terror.
When Morty showed up in Israel, there was no system, no structure for having this New York detective on board. "It was hard at first," he admits. "Nobody knew what to expect. I started with the simple notion of respecting the host, not stepping on toes." His fluency in Hebrew helped, and being a Jew did not hurt. But while he always wore the yarmulke at home, here he makes a point of not wearing it. "I want them to see NYPD first — that's why I am here. It has nothing to do with religion or politics. It has to do with keeping New York safe." With no precedent for his posting, Morty just politely kept popping up, developing relationships, making contacts.
Gil Kleiman is about the closest thing Morty has to a partner in Israel. Half Italian, half Jewish, and straight out of Brooklyn, Gil moved to Israel to serve in the army, got out, and decided to stay and become a cop. He's hustled his way up the chain of command and now is the face of the Israeli police to the world, serving as foreign spokesman, the guy you see on CNN after an attack, with his younger — De Niro features, sharp, informed, unflappable. Over Argentine steaks, Morty and Kleiman trade war stories, like all cops, shoot-outs and collars and the brute hilarity that comes with the job no matter where it is practiced. They have the easy rapport of guys who come from the same place. Kleiman makes a point of getting Morty access to whatever he needs.
It's been three months, a scary long time between bombings, and both men are a bit on edge. There are reports of explosions to come laced with HIV-infected blood or with rat poison, of donkey bombs. Tactics and strategy are always changing. Israel averages sixty credible terror warnings a day, and its 911 system lights up with thirty thousand calls a day. It's one reason for the escalation to suicide bombings; abandoned packages in Israel attract immediate response. "We have an enlisted population," Kleiman says.

jlb5 Posts: 5I just purchased my 05 TL in March and I love it. I just took it in for the 7500 mile service and had problems with vibrations after i left. I took it back to the dealership to determine what the problem was. I was told I had 2 wheels that were damaged. One needed attention that day but I am holding off on replacing the 2nd one for now. I can not believe how weak these rims appear to be. I do not purposely drive down the road looking for pot holes but at the same time, it should be able to take some dumps. I have already paid $320 for 1 new Acura rim but I'm not sure I really want to invest another $320 in a second rim to replace it if the Acura rims are not better than this. Has anyone else had problems? Thinking of buying after market rims instead of Acura's.
jlb5 Posts: 5Yes...no vibrations before going in. Once the service was done which include tire rotation came all the vibration. They never noticed the bent rims on the original service it was only after I brought it back I was told that rotating the tires would cause the vibrations if there were damage to the rims. Okay, fine I guess I can live with that but what concerns me is that I have never had a car have rims mess up like these and I don't drive it any differently. Just seems to me these rims are not as good of quality which is disappointing. Other than the rims though, I love my car and have had no other problems and of course they aren't covered under any warranty.
Nothing extra done...just appears to be poor quality rims. -
taxesquire Posts: 681
delmar1 Posts: 744I am not doubting your assessment...but I am not getting how there was no vibration before going in for service.....then POOF...vibration.
My thoughts.... It could very well be that once your tires were rotated...the tires coming from the rear into the front were either out of balance or they had a flat spot. That does happen and that is why it is important to not only rotate tires...but to have them balanced.
Did the servicer tried to balance the tires or even 'shaved' the tires or even tried to 'un-rotate' (as in returning the tires to their original positions) before selling you rims?
Also...in regards to bent rims. Generally pretty darn tough to damage a rim from hitting something straight on. That is running over stuff at high speeds. The major cause would be by driving over major potholes...which you would definitely know of. Other cause would be when you are hitting the curb hard when parking.
Any case...I am not questioning you...but wonder if the servicer did indeed troubleshoot correctly. Anybody else had bent rims out there? I have had five Acuras and not one....and very easy to get the wheel balanced. -
jlb5 Posts: 5Did the servicer tried to balance the tires or even 'shaved' the tires or even tried to 'un-rotate' (as in returning the tires to their original positions) before selling you rim?
No they didn't do any of this. They took me to see the car and show me the wheel. The car was lift in the air and with the tire spinning their was a complete wobble while the tire was turning. They told me then my rim was bad and most of my vibration was coming from this particular rim. They then showed me the other rim but said I could hold off and see if the vibration was still too much. If it was then to come back, if not then I would need to replace that rim the next time I had my car serviced and tired rotated because the 2nd rim is currently on the back but will move to the front.
I'll admit, I have some knowledge of cars but not the specifics so maybe I should have made them do those things had I know about them. I wonder now if I just got ripped off. -
delmar1 Posts: 744Shhhs...I hate to say I don't think it was the rims....even when they did put the car on the lift and spun the tire...an out of balanced wheel will flutter. (know that all tires will go out of balance over time, wear, and mileage...just because they were balanced once doesn't mean they stay true for life. Buy tires from Costco...and they will rotate and balance for free)
Sounds like you replaced one rim and still have another that has a slight flutter. Go ahead and get that wheel balanced and I am sure you will see an improvement. Remember....even if you get it rebalanced...it will not be absolutely stone perfect...there will always be a slight movement.
Also...another thing to keep in mind for the future...since we are talking about maintenance. When replacing brakes in the future...don't just change the brake pads...but have the rotors resurfaced. Reason is that if there is an imperfection on the rotor...it will immediately create an issue where you will feel a vibration from etching an imperfection on the brake pad surface.
You might want to consider taking your car to an alternate Acura dealership for future servicing. They aren't that great at troubleshooting. -
jlb5 Posts: 5Thanks for your help. Unfortunately I will have to go to this dealership unless they continue to with these bad patterns. When I purchased the car in March I went ahead and paid for all my service up front for the first 45.000 miles. I was trying to avoid unexpected situations and thought it would be easier to just pay it all up front. Maybe that wasn't such a good idea either. I thought I finally got the car I have been looking at for a year. It's the nicest car I have ever had and I really wanted to take good care of it. I do drive alot of miles so I purchased the extented warranty and maintance program up front. You spend this kind of money you want to take care of it especially since cars depreciate enough on there own. I do believe though for the balancing of the tires I'll take it somewhere else just to get another opinion since I'll have to pay for it anyway.
huters Posts: 7First, I must say that I LOVE THIS CAR!! 04TLw/Nav. 22,000+ miles @ 26mpg ... what's not to like.
One thing that doesn't seem to work correctly is the outside temperature sensor, or some part of that circuit. Mine consistantly reads 10+ degrees high. Today, after about 30 minutes on the highway it was still reading 95 degrees when the OAT was 83 degrees. Any suggestions? Dealer tells me this is within acceptable limits, but I've never seen another car that was this far off.
Steve -
delmar1 Posts: 744
delmar1 Posts: 744Easy fix...which I am surprised the dealer didn't suggest.
Look at your owners manual...and you can adjust and recalibrate your temp readings. If you are consistently 10 degrees off...then adjust your readout by the same then you will be all fixed-up and ready to go.
Glad you are enjoying your TL.

TWC-Dimension Announces Aptly-Named Whodunit 'Murder Mystery'
In Development By Samantha Wilson on September 24, 2013 | 1 CommentThe not very imaginatively-titled Murder Mystery has been announced as the second film slated under the equally blah-ly renamed TWC-Dimension. Bob and Harvey Weinstein's company has teamed up with Endgame for the film directed by Anne Fletcher (The Proposal, 27 Dresses), which is being described as an "action whodunit comedy" written by James Vanderbilt (Zodiac, The Amazing Spider-Man, White House Down).
You've piqued my interest. Murder Mystery is the tale of a married couple (so far uncasted) who takes the honeymoon they never had in the hopes of reigniting their struggling relationship. But when one of the passengers on their cruise ship winds up dead, they find themselves embroiled in a…murder mystery…that takes them in a caper all across Europe. Why it's up to this this normal couple to solve the whodunit all by themselves is not known, but I guarantee that it brings them closer together as life partners, and as partners in solving crime. Did I just write the tagline?
The Weinsteins are excited about the new venture for their company, which they mashed together in order to focus on projects for which they have shared passions. In this case, they love them some murder mysteries. "Murder Mystery is a throwback to Agatha Christie novels with a comedic spin. We have been huge fans of Anne Fletcher for years and have wanted to work with her," they said in a joint statement.
Paddington, starring Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman, was the first film announced under TWC-Dimension. Along with Murder Mystery, there are several other unnamed projects in negotiation that will be announced at a later date.
Now if we could just get them to brainstorm a better title.
There is no release date for Murder Mystery at this time.

I'm getting ready (finally!) to grout my bathroom walls. Last night I grouted the floor with Spectralock epoxy grout and it went well.
I need to choose a grout for the shower and bathroom walls. This is a bathroom that will be hard-used and cleaned by a teenager (not very carefully, in other words!) so I would like to use a pretty high-functioning grout. I'd just use Spectralock, but I think it will be difficult to get that (sanded) into the VERy tight grout lines I have. The tiles are 4x4s butted up to each other with their little self-spacing lugs, so the joints are quite tight. Then I thought I'd use Laticrete Permacolor, but it, too, seems to be sanded (like Spectralock, I think, it's a small-grained sand, but still rough). Can anyone recommend a high-functioning grout that would be better for my application?
Follow-Up Postings:
How about TEC XT? Comes in both Sanded and Unsanded versions (for most colors), and is supposed to be more stain resistant and mold and mildew resistant than other cement-based grouts. It does require a longer cure time 7-10 days before getting wet or sealing (doesn't need to be sealed, but can be, with a solvent-based sealer, which we did when we sealed the marble and trav tile in both bathrooms). I sealed it in the MB at 7 days because I needed that bathroom functional "now" LOL. It also requires a drier clean-up (just wring sponge out well when wiping off excess grout, according to the rep with whom I spoke during my grout "research"--there's a video you can watch, too). It's a little stickier than the reg TEC grout, so you might need a bit more elbow grease to remove grout haze, but that's about it. We used the Bright White for the field tile in both upstairs baths (used the reg TEC in Bright White for our kitchen and guest bathroom since the XT either wasn't around then or we just didn't know about it at the time). We used both the Sanded and the Unsanded. The Unsanded is a bit whiter than the Sanded (because the sanded has actual grains of sand, which I'm sure you know), but both seem white enough. We used a very glossy, very white, Porcelanosa large format tile in the MB. Our grout lines are very tight, except for the White Thassos mosaic/border (which came pre-mounted on mesh), and the Unsanded worked very well. We also used it (in Almond) with the split faced trav mosaic in the hall bath which had practically non-existent grout lines in spots. Of course, when I say "we" used any of these products, I mean our wonderful tile guys used them for us! |

I was going to say the same thing. Tec XT. We used it in our master. Unsanded on the walls as there like yours, it was tight tile joints. We found the grout a bit thick, and as a terrible grouter, I can say it came out pretty well. It was a kind of beige color with white tile. As previous poster stated- it has all the anti mildew stuff in it, stain resistant, yet not epoxy. Kinda like a cross over, the way I look at it. I did seal it, but again, just to restate, it does require a SOLVENT based sealer. 18 months, and looking great. Including the sanded grout in the shower floor. You know the tile experts will say no need to seal. I will add though, that I used ordinary HD custom grout in the teen bathroom, also cleaned by them, and after 4 years, it really still looks good and cleans up easily. I had sealed that once at the install with a regular cheap sealer, but that was 4 years ago (all prior to my education here ;-). |
I did do the sealing myself (DH helped where I couldn't reach!). FWIW, we used STT's SB Sealer. Minimal odor (seriously) and very easy to use. |

Thanks folks! I replied to this before but it disappeared... |

Spectralock uses a VERY small-grained sand and is perfectly acceptable for tight joints. If you're concerned, use about 20% less of the dry sand in the mix. |

Thank you... I've already grouted using Tec Accuculor XT, which is a highly modified portland cement grout thats supposed to be very very mildew/stain resistant. but I have to say, it was a lot more of a pain to work with than the Spectralock epoxy grout I used on the floor. Wish I had done that! But, the gout IS white, and I know that the white epoxy would go yellow, so hopefully it's all for the best :) |
Your comment on epoxy grout is one more piece of evidence showing that homeowners can have success with it. Professionals often shy away from epoxy grouts. I think professionals have so much experience with portland cement grouts that they cannot unlearn their habits. They think nothing of the work involved with portland cement grouts. But, they have found epoxy grout hard to do successfully. Your comment on epoxy grout is one more piece of evidence showing that a person can successfully install epoxy grout, and quite easily too. |

Half Broke Horses, Chapters 4 Through 6
Thanks for all your comments, Bookies—I'm glad to hear that all of you are enjoying the book as much as I am. Reader Brooke brought up an interesting topic I didn't mention in my previous post—Lily's mother. She seems to be the complete opposite of Lily and clearly thinks that a woman's goal in life is to be married off to a rich, successful man. In the second part of the book, we hear about Helen's tragic situation and her awful, heartbreaking end. Do you think her mom—who encouraged Helen head off to Los Angeles alone to pursue an acting career—is partially to blame for what happens to her?
It seems that Lily learned her lesson from her first "crumb-bum husband" and makes a much wiser choice in her second husband, Jim. He appears to be the perfect match for her—intelligent, kind, resourceful, and trustworthy. In fact, Lily says that his most important quality is that she "could trust that man inside and out." What do you think is the most important thing in a marriage—love? Trust? Common morals? Common interests? Do you think she would have married Jim Smith if she hadn't been betrayed in her first marriage?
We also see Lily dabble with something illegal—selling bootleg booze to make ends meet. If you were in her situation, would you have done the same thing? While I admire her resourcefulness, I don't think I would have done something against the law that could land me in jail.
Lily's "cleaning" strategy—or lack thereof—made me laugh out loud. Do you think she goes too far in refusing to wash her family's clothes, or do you agree with her reasoning? Obviously things are different when you're living on a ranch, but I think wearing the same dirty shirts and jeans day after day, week after week, would be just too much for me! I do hate cleaning my apartment, though, so her one-day-every-few-months of all-out cleaning sounds really appealing.
And for those who have read The Glass Castle, we start to learn about Rosemary—Jeannette Walls' mother—and what she was like as a little girl. Rosemary's attitude and parenting style definitely make a lot more sense as we see what her own upbringing was like. It's interesting that Lily, who herself was such a bold, headstrong, somewhat wild child worries about her "rambunctious" daughter. Do you think it's just a mother's natural inclination to worry about her children and try to steer them down the right path, or do you think she has legitimate concerns about Rosemary's behavior? Was it necessary for Lily to turn everything into a lesson and try to "stamp out" Rosemary's lack of focus, or do you agree with Jim that she needs to lighten up?
I'm rather sad that this book is coming to an end; for next Wednesday, we'll finish the story (chapter 7 through the end). Share your thoughts and questions in the comments below!

Since the season began, everyone as talked about the strength of schedule for the Kansas City Chiefs. About how brutal this next 5-game stretch will be. First they play the Patriots (6-3) in Foxborough, then come back for the Steelers (7-3), then on the road to Chicago for the Bears (6-3), then to New York for the Jets (5-4). They wrap up the "gauntlet" with a home game at Arrowhead against the undefeated, defending champion Green Bay Packers (9-0). Yes it is a very rough schedule. Yes it may be the toughest 5-game stretch from any team, at any point in the season, but…
…the rest of the AFC West has a difficult road ahead of them as well! The AFC West is split by a single game from first place to last place. That is remarkable given that we are 10 weeks into the season!
Oakland (5-4) is currently in the drivers seat, but face 3 road games against the Vikings (2-7), Dolphins (2-7) & Packers. They should lose to Green Bay. The Dolphins have played most games very close, and their record does not indicate that. Minnesota has the ability and talent to play well, and if their defense shows up, they could easily win. They also host the Bears and Lions (6-3). Both games have defenses that could take the Raiders running game out and force Carson Palmer to beat them. At best, Oakland wins 1-2!
San Diego (4-5) is next! The host the Broncos (4-5), Bills (5-4) and Ravens (6-3). The Ravens have been playing with the consistency of a wet fart, but they have shown they are very capable of shutting down the opposing team. The Broncos and Bill have very opposite season! The Bills started hot and now appear to be luke warm at best, on the other hand the Broncos have started slow and with a little bit of Tim Tebow magic, have somehow managed to make the NFL look like the NCAA! How come teams cannot cover the read-option? Everyone is so anxious to make the big hit or big play and their fundamentals break down and they over pursue or are caught out of position. The Chargers also go on the road to Chicago and Jacksonville (3-6). They could easily lose against the bears…and the west coast to east coast time is a big concern when they go to Jacksonville. Of all the teams in the AFC West, the Chargers have the easiest road…easily winning 2-3.
Next is Denver. They have 2 road games in San Diego and Minnesota. I think by week's 12 & 13, these 2 teams will have heard all about how Tebow is running all over the place and cannot complete a pass, even if he was throwing it to a wide open WR. He will run first, then he will line up in a throwing formation, but will run it anyways! I don't even know if he knows his receivers names? Then they have 3 homes games, but with teams like the Jets, Bears and Patriots…they better bring their A+++++ game, or they will lose in decisive fashion. I could see them winning possibly 1 game, but most likely they go winless in their next 5 games too!
Lastly, we come back to Kansas City. They are outmatched in every way…on paper! They have some talent, they have the ability to win games, they just need to fight for it. I could easily see them winning zero games, but I would not also be surprised if they won a game. They may catch a luck break, or an opponent may be caught looking forward to the next week's opponent and not focus for the Chiefs. Stranger things have happened!
Just to recap;
Oakland is sitting at 5-4. If they win 1 game, they will be 6-8, if they make it 2, then 7-7.
San Diego is currently 4-5, they should win 2 and move to 6-8, or 3 would make them 7-7.
Denver is at 4-5. They might win 1 game and move up to 5-9, but I could also see lose all 5 and move to 4-10.
Kansas City is in the same boat as Denver 4-5, and may lose all 5 games and stay at 4-10, but if they win…just 1 game…they will be sitting at 5-9.
At most, Kansas City will be 3 games back with 2 games remaining. That would officially eliminate them from the playoffs, but in the best case scenario, they would still only be 1 game back, and with the final 2 games against Oakland and at Denver…the season may not be completely lost!

A Mysterious Patch Of Light Shows Up In The North Dakota Dark
by ROBERT KRULWICH
January 16, 2013 1:58 PM
Using maps and videos of America at night, Krulwich points out the clump of light in the middle of the North Dakota nowhere–a nowhere that should be dark. These are the flares burning off natural gas in the Bakken Shale.
He missed the Texas streak of light in the middle of nowhere. The streak of light that matches perfectly with maps of the Eagle Ford Shale where flares burn off natural gas.
Scientific American didn't miss that streak. They have a cropped photo posted HERE.
Gases from flaring accelerate climate change and release toxins into the air.


text: We stayed at the Dolphin last fall for a couple nights. They are very nice resorts, with some very nice restaurants, but they are very different from the Disney resorts in that they aren't themed in the same way - much more business casual oriented. They do have a sort of backstory, but it is lost on most guests.

Pears and dried cranberries, sweetened with honey, spiced with black pepper and accentuated with a subtle hint of rosemary. Perfect with cheeses, poultry and pork or even spooned over ice cream.
Terrific with all types of fresh, young or even blue cheeses. Try tossing with greens and walnuts in a nut oil vinaigrette. Complements chicken, duck and pork beautifully. Or, after dinner, serve with a simple, buttery pound cake and pillows of whipped cream.
Pears, honey, dried cranberries, sugar, orange peel, rosemary, lemon juice concentrate, black pepper.

How to install KDE's Plasma 5 in Kubuntu [updated]
The second Beta of the KDE Plasma workspace was released recently. Plasma 5 is the current development branch and Linux distributions shipping Plasma are in the process of integrating their desktop environment with this version. If you are a Kubuntu user, you can now test Plasma 5 easily. Kubuntu developer Jonathan Riddell says that most Plasma 5 packages have build successfully for Kubuntu and users can test it on their systems.
Before you follow my instructions to install Plasma 5 on your system, keep in mind that Plasma 5 is under heavy development and the stable release has not been made. Since it's in development stage, there are (as expected) issues. Some of the issue you should be aware of include the missing wallpaper, icons may stop working now and then and Plasma Network Manager is missing as well.
So once you know what you are getting yourself into, go ahead and try it out on your test machine. You can actually help developer in finding the bugs.
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:neon/kf5 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install project-neon5-session project-neon5-utils project-neon5-konsole
Logout and select Neon session from the login window.
Plasma Next is the next-gen desktop experience (with stunning look and feel) under development from KDE, one of the most popular desktop environments for Linux.

Inside the Box
Once we open the box in a box, we are presented with this. The foam utilized to protect the power supply is extremely dense and should keep things protected short of being crushed.
Removing the unit from the PSU cozy reveals the matte black finish on the unit and the I/O specification label on the top.
Both sides feature the same Silent Pro Platinum 1000W logo.
There isn't anything special on the back, just your standard mesh grill, AC input and on/off rocker switch.
On the front, we find all of the modular connectors along with pin layouts for all of the connectors except the fans.
Taking a look at the front, we find the modular connections. It is nice to see the pin out for each connector listed here.
The bottom features the 135mm HDB fan which cools the Silent Pro Platinum 1000W. The fan is protected by the chrome wire mesh grill which provides a nice amount of contrast to the unit.
All modular cables are of the flat ribbon type.

SAMA is able to offer free admission to its four museums thanks in large part to its fundraisers. As a non-profit organization, public donations and funds raised through events such as the Gala, the Garden Party, and The Art of Wine and Fashion are critical to SAMA's success. These funds help us to maintain museum operations and sustain SAMA programs. Your support at these events helps us to bring art into the classrooms of schools across our six-county region and serve more than 15,000 students annually. Our fundraisers also help support SAMA initiatives like the Museum/Healthcare Partnership Program which helps area residents who suffer from chronic pain and discomfort. Additionally, these events also serve as "friend raisers," providing the Museum with a vehicle for corporate and individual membership development, exhibition and education program awareness, and building new audiences throughout the region.
Through these fundraisers, SAMA raises unrestricted dollars through corporate donations and underwriting marketing initiatives, the selling of objects donated to live and silent auctions, and admission fees. Each year, hundreds of volunteers dedicate themselves to these events, which in turn typically attract more than 700 paying guests. For more information on SAMA's fundraisers, or if you are interested in joining an organizing committee, please contact the Museum at (814) 472-3920.
Over the past three decades, the Gala has evolved into one of the most sophisticated and complex outdoor social events in Pennsylvania. The event, held on the campus of Saint Francis University in Loretto, combines fine art, gourmet cuisine, live music and a variety of games of chance to create an electric ambience. Live and silent auctions feature spectacular items such as artwork, vacation packages, antiques, collectibles, and much more. The Museum is indebted to the patrons, sponsors, benefactors and donors who contributed to a successful program. The thirty-sixth annual Gala, "Party in Paradise," was held July 19, 2014. The Caribbean-themed program featured a variety of games, tropical music and fabulous specialty bars. The live auction provided guests an opportunity to bid on amazing artwork, a golf foursome at Laurel Valley Golf Club, vacation packages, and a vintage 1972 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow! As a special treat, guests were treated to a special visuals production by Brien Rullman, founder of OVT Visuals. Rullman travels the world with his light show productions and has a client list that includes LL Cool J, The Flaming Lips, Pretty Lights and James Brown, to name just a few. SAMA's thirty-seventh annual Gala, "African Odyssey," will be held on July 18, 2015.

SAMA-Ligonier Valley's Garden Party is a community event designed to benefit the Museum and its lavish 400-square-foot flower gardens. Since its inception in 2002, the event has welcomed more than 1,400 individuals. The Garden Party begins with a champagne reception in the gallery celebrating the featured exhibition. Following the reception, guests proceed outside under a tent on the Museum lawn for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. Live music is often featured, and silent and live auctions provide an opportunity to purchase a variety of items including artwork, antiques, collectibles, garden accessories, gift baskets, and much more. This year's thirteenth annual Garden Party, "The Thrill of the Hunt for Art," was chaired by Gretchen and Joseph Griffith and Barbara and Gene Kravits, with Rolling Rock Masters of the Hunt, Christina Henderson, Sophie Mellon and Fritz Teroerde serving as honorary chairs. The event was held on May 31 to a near-record attendance. The Museum is grateful to the chairs, committee, sponsors, donors, attendees and the Rolling Rock Hunt Club for their support of the Garden Party. The 2015 Garden Party, "Hooked on Art," will be held on May 30.

In recent years, SAMA-Altoona's The Art of Wine and Fashion fundraiser has become one of the Altoona area's most anticipated and sophisticated annual events. The program, which debuted in 2003, combines the excitement of big city clubbing with a night of high fashion and fine dining while also celebrating and supporting the arts. In 2013, the Museum rebranded the event as Think Pink. While the program format remains the same, SAMA will donate a portion of the proceeds from the event to the American Cancer Society's Making Strides Against Breast Cancer campaign. The program begins at the Altoona Museum for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres, before moving next door to The Columns for a buffet dinner, dessert, dancing, specialty bars, a scotch-tasting, and silent auction. The 2014 program, chaired by Chantel Ventura-Garofalo, featured a style show produced by Diamond Bridal Collections and Special Occasions of Hollidaysburg. The 2015 event is scheduled for November 6.

The newest of SAMA's major fundraisers, Night of Distinction debuted in 2012 as a venue to honor the Museum's most benevolent patrons. The event features dinner, as well as presentation of SAMA's Trustees Emeritus and Service to the Arts Award recipients. In recent years, SAMA introduced Betty Gamble, Jeanne Gleason, Joseph Mack, Edgar Dean Nelson, Shirley Pechter and Gerald Wolf as Trustees Emeritus. Service to the Arts awards were presented to J. William Meek III, director and owner of the Harmon-Meek Gallery in Naples, Florida, and the Wolf-Kuhn Foundation, a charitable organization that has been instrumental in building SAMA's collection of more than 4,000 works of art. At the 2014 program, SAMA honored Dr. Betty J. Lowell Cottle and Nancy Devorris with Service to the Arts awards. Night of Distinction will return to the Loretto Museum on April 25, 2015.

Turtle spotting from Sea Kayaks along Thala's secluded coast
To glide low on the water in a kayak is a magical experience. Keeping watch for marine life unperturbed by your silent passage. As you gaze at the lushness of rainforest clad mountains, life becomes timeless and takes on a whole new perspective. Our expert guide will take you in kayaks to his secret places to look for marine turtles, stingrays, dolphins and dugongs.
On a clear day, you can look down into the magical waters to glimpse the rich marine environment of corals, urchins, molluscs, rays and brightly coloured coral-fish.
Green turtles are common in our northern bay and frequently approach the kayaks without undue concern. A head appearing above the surface followed by an unexpected whoosh of exhaled air may even startle you.

02 - 03 July, 2013 - JW Marriot Jakarta, Jakarta, Indonesia
The mining industry in the Indo-Pacific region is booming with Indonesia being the top place for new mining projects, followed by the Philippines and Vietnam. But like the global mining industry, the Indo-Pacific region is also facing volatile times and fluctuating demand prices, fuelled further by political instability. This combination makes procurement departments and processes more important than ever to the bottom line of any mining company. Procurement process optimisation, dealing with unstable and changing regulations, upskilling procurement staff, finding the most effective balance between local and overseas sourcing to improve supply chain planning and forecasting are just some of the key focus areas going forward. In fact, the next 12 months and beyond will be a busy time for procurement and supply chain professionals to adjust to more fluctuating demands, forecast needs and market movements, while increasing productivity and cost effectiveness across all procurement and supply chain processes. Following the success of Mining IQ's Mining Procurement & Supply 2012 events, Mining IQ is proud to bring the event to the Indo-Pacific region. Mining Procurement & Supply Indo-Pacific is your opportunity to network and benchmark with your counterparts from across the region to ensure your business is ready for the times ahead.

Sweet, mild and smooth. Brazil is the largest producer of coffee in the world and Santos is the highest grade of Brazil available. Brazil Santos is a mild coffee with medium body and low acidity.
A coffee lover's "all day" coffee. No trip to Vienna is complete without dessert and coffee at one of the elegant coffeehouses that make the city famous. Our version pays homage to that classic European blend of medium and dark roasts. We think you will find our Viennese to be rich and hearty, enjoyable all day long.
With a hint of fruit, a very special coffee. A highly aromatic coffee from the Sidamo region. Ethiopia Yergacheffe has an aroma similar to that of lemon and apricots, a light body and an elegant finish. It is slightly sweet and a bit acidic.
A blend of Central and South American coffees roasted to produce a strong, smoky flavor with tantalizing aroma. Perfect blend for those who add cream and sugar to their cup. Our darkest roasted bean.
These beans are grown on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro near the Kenyan border. The peaberry beans are prized for their rich flavor and depth of body. Medium roasted, this coffee is unique for it's sharp, winey, cup.Winner of numerous coffee contests, and awarded many times for it's flavor.
African and Indonesian coffees have been masterfully roasted Vienna-Style for an espresso experience that's both sweet and rich with very little bitterness and a complex flavor. Dark roasted, this bean is only slightly lighter than our French Roast.
This estate-grown variety is grown on the slopes of the Poas Volcano in Costa Rica, which is famous for its rich soil and perfect coffee-growing conditions. This coffee produces a clean, hearty cup which is perfect with breakfast and lunch. Winner of the award for number one coffee of the year.
Treasure of the Sigma Madre Sierra. Grown in the mountains of southern Mexico, this coffee possesses a wonderful bouquet, a strong rich body, and slightly chocolate overtones while maintaining an excellent acidity.

This hostel is great for meeting people, close proximity to all the near by bars and clubs in La Candelaria! However the kitchen doesn't really look dirty but it just feels dirty, the living room furniture is pretty run down along with the rest of the building. Dorms are comfortable enough and the staff are extremely helpful, even if their English isn't the best, knowing a little bit of Spainish you can meet them half way :D

text: Hey everyone. Me, MommytoMJM, DaddytoMJM, and a Cast Member named Adam were over in DTD to see if the manager at Pin Traders would allow us to replace some of MJs pins that were damaged. Bonny sent me and Adam to go look at pins for about 5 minutes and called us back. When we got back, the manager at Pin Traders presented Adam with a Cast Member ONLY pin for his contributions to MJs pin collection (trust me, he has given her a lot!!!) Just thought I would mention it and congratulate him, even though he isn't at these forums (yet) and show how the Disney magic is spread when you are with the very special MJ.

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Drugs and Alcohol Quotes
How we cite our quotes:
Quote #7
Martha: we take our tears, and we put 'em in the icebox, in the goddamn ice trays[…]until they're frozen[…]and then…we put them…in our…drinks. (3.1)
Here's quite a poignant metaphor for drowning sorrows in alcohol.
Quote #8
Nick: You should try me sometime when we haven't been dinking for ten hours (3.26)
Nick uses drinking as an excuse for his impotence, but are there deeper reasons? Disgust? Shame?
Quote #9
Martha: You [Nick] just stay where you are. Make my hubby a drink. (3.96)
Making the drinks has been George's job for the whole play. Now, Martha is ordering Nick to do it. What could this sudden shift symbolize?
People who Shmooped this also Shmooped...

We built a new home last year and I should have done more research on hot water heaters, my fault. We have a 3000 sq ft home, 3 people 2 and 1/2 baths. We have a 50 gal electric HW heater (Lochinvar) and it does fine, never ran out or anything. But another contractor who came to put our water filtration in asked why I didnt consider the GE Geospring. I admitted I was not familiar with the unit. I would love to reduce our electric cost. Lowes has them on sale right now and I would also get a $300 rebate from our electric provider. We do not have natural gas in our area. We have an air source heat pump for HVAC. We do have propane, but only for the fireplace which we use only occasional. Would it make sense for me to consider swapping out the unit being that it is on sale and with a rebate? What are the downsides? If it is exchanging heat from basement (which ranges between 60 and 63 during the winter) will it make the basement colder? Someone said it takes the need away for a dehumidifier in the basement during summer...true or false? Sorry for the questions, but you guys always have the answers here. Thanks, Jason |
