Subject: A.Word.A.Day--lemma
lemma (LEM-uh) noun [plural lemmas or lemmata (LEM-uh-tuh)]
1. A subsidiary proposition assumed to be valid and used to demonstrate a principal proposition.
2. A theme, an argument, or a subject indicated in a title.
3. A word or phrase treated in a glossary or similar listing.
[Latin lemma, from Greek, from lambanein, to take.]
lemma (LEM-uh) noun
Botany. The outer or lower of the two bracts that enclose the flower in
a grass spikelet.
[Greek, husk, from lepein, to peel.]
I also remember calculus prof using "lemma" as name for
a small part of a proof, similar to an axiom in geometry.

Loc: California I mainly know lemma as a term in lexicography. It's the form of a word used to mark an entry: e.g., in English we use the singular form of a noun or the infinitival form of a verb (sans 'to'). In Latin, the nominative and geneitive singulars of nouns are used: the former for the entry proper, and the latter for determining which declension the noun belongs to.

Sackville's Note:
Here's an easy cake that even a small child can make with a little help from an adult. Feel free to experiment with different fillings, as long as the ratio of chocolate to the other goodies remains the same.
My Private Note
Units: US | Metric
- 250 g digestive biscuits or 250 g graham crackers
- 100 g pecan nuts, shelled
- 100 g sliced almonds
- 100 g glace cherries, chopped
- 150 g butter
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- 200 g good quality chocolate (about 70 percent cocoa solids)
- cocoa powder, for dusting (optional)
- 1Break the biscuits into small pieces and put in a large bowl.
- 2Add in both kinds of nuts and the cherries and stir to mix.
- 3Put the rest of the ingredients in a small saucepan and simmer over the lowest possible heat until the chocolate and butter are melted.
- 4You may have to give it a stir or two to combine the ingredients.
- 5Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the bowl with the biscuits and use a spoon to mix everything until the chocolate is evenly distributed across the rest of the ingredients.
- 6Line a loaf pan with saran wrap, leaving lots of extra at the edges to cover the top of the finished cake.
- 7Spoon the mixture into the loaf pan.
- 8You may have to use the back of the spoon to pack it down.
- 9Pull the extra saran wrap over the top and use your hands to push down firmly on the cake, making sure it is well packed together.
- 10Place in the fridge for two hours to cool, then take out and slice.
- 11For a special touch, dust with cocoa powder.

For more than two decades, American Mattress has promoted peaceful slumber in bedchambers throughout the Midwest with their vast selection of mattresses, headboards, and linens. The sleep experts strive to stay abreast of the latest bedding technology: their Serta mattresses are made with gel foam that supports curves, and Tempur-Pedic mattresses repel allergens, mites, and poltergeists looking to spoon. This devotion to a good night's sleep has helped them earn the title of Best Mattress Store from suburban Chicago's Daily Herald five years in a row. Additionally, American Mattress doubles down on each of its beds with a 30-day comfort guarantee and a 60-day best-price guarantee.
Authorized DVDNow distributor In A Minute Games and Movies dispenses the latest Hollywood releases and video games via red kiosks. Patrons can rent or buy films ranging from horror flicks to romantic comedies, or opt for popular games such as Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, in which players guide their blood-spattered avatars through household chores. New releases grace the kiosk every Tuesday, arriving the same day they come out nationally, and patrons can reserve films renting like hotcakes once they register as members online, a process that takes roughly five minutes to confirm through email.
It's hard to stand inside a Godby Home Furnishings showroom. Comfy couches, chairs, and beds wait around every turn inside the store. Each visit showcases furnishings for several areas of the home, including living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms. A look at the item tags in any of these sections reads like a who's who of the home furnishing world?names like Flexsteel , La-Z-Boy, Serta, and Tempurpedic among many more. The Carmel location is open despite the closure of US 31.
The Godby family has curated these fine furnishings since 1974, when Jim Godby founded the first location. After coming aboard in 1992, Jim's son Jeff oversaw the company's expansion into a modern day furniture empire that rivals the ionic column emporiums of Rome. At the center of it all lies the Godby Home Furnishings 75,000 sq. ft. warehouse, which stocks all the furniture on display in each showroom. In total, about eight million dollars of inventory fills the warehouse?but sometimes that's not even enough. In those cases, Godby's team happily places a custom order for their customers.

Rooms were a good size and the bed was amazing
The pool is small and closed at 10. Also there was no hot tub. Not very impressed
The hotel had so much to offer especially the gym facility. It was outstanding
Overbooked w young noisy athletes elevators had long waits. Pool area in disarray
Not only was there the Boat Show but also a Volleyball tournament and the hotel was full. The staff kept everything organized and comfortable. This location really knows how to handle a crowd.
Very roomy. Enjoyed the lounge chair. Excellent sleep.
Can hear people in the hall easily.
accommodating, friendly staff, clean facilities, convenient access right off 55
Ramp parking is never available because it is full all the time - even valet is overbooked
Stayed inside for visit to show.
Bathroom needs shelves/towel racks.
The close proximity to the convention center
For the money and parking costs, I was expecting a nicer room. The restaurants in the hotel are just basic and expensive. $18.00 for a burger! The room was dirty when I checked into it from previous guest and when I came back after I complained four hours later, it still had not been cleaned. Moved into a different room.
Great room. Nice view. Had a good time in the bar. Good Wait staff
The nighttime view The room The comfort of the bed The price I booked at and paid for early
The pool was small The prices on snacks at the lobby coffee shop was too expensive especially for the teenagers I have who eat all the time
the quick check in time.
the noise coming from rooms and door shaming by customers.
Went to Bears game-proximity to Soldier Field. Great rate- Stayed last year-back Again!!!!
It is so beautiful in the room great customer service
Not many restaurants within walking distance of hotel
Super clean rooms. Classy bathroom and showers. Brand new TV and furniture. Thick curtains for a dark room during sunlight. Extra towels and bed sheets and toiletries.
When you arrive self parking is 32 dollars per 12 hours, meaning 64 dollars per night. At check in, you have to pay a $100 dollar deposit fee for security purposes. I Did not like that due to the hotel reservations not saying anything about a deposit fee. Also I recieved a room on the 4th floor next to the parked cars. I was not happy at all and asked for a room changed on the highest floor. The window view was not what I expected due to the second building Infront of us. No microwave in our room. Not satisfied. Lastly, at check out, the older woman checking us out called my husband a smart ass because, he asked about the $100 dollar deposit being kept by the hotel due to pre changing you for parking . So the hotel keeps your "deposit fee" for parking but does not tell you they are pre charging you for the parking in the beginning. We parked on the street far, the first night. Then parked in parking garage the second night.. Still wanted all $100 dollars. Never again this hotel!!!!!
Free wifi was a plus. Decent place to sleep. Parking complimentary with our deal.
The L stop closest to us was under construction, so we had to make the .6 mile treck to and from the Chinatown stop in 8 degree weather. Bathroom was small. Bed was mediocrely comfortable. Would've liked an in-room or express check out option. The line to check out and leave was outrageously long. We just split without a receipt. Overall, my boyfriend and I had a great evening, but the hotel did nothing to enhance it. Just a place to sleep. Disclaimer: we didn't explore any of the amenities, so it could be fine for a longer stay. Just wasn't worth it for one night.
1)bed was terrible -head was 4-5 inches lower than foot of bed. 2)roomservice overpriced and limited 3)delivery service to room was forbidden destroying image of "delivery service" 4)Chicago's "in" with Amtrak, forcing overnite mandatory is discusting
The room was great, comfortable and the staff was awesome
We got no rest because it was New Years Eve and New Years Day both nights people were yelling and arguing in the hallways ,the music was extremely loud threw out the hallways,we called the front desk and complained several times but they came up ..love the hotel but will never go back
This was the cheapest room in the city on New Year's Eve and a very nice hotel! It was conveniently located 2mins from Tommy Guns Garage dinner theatre ad made for an easy travel night. I also liked they had security checking wristbands on the way back into the elevator area to make sure you belonged!
Valet Garage was full and front was a mess, it could have been handled much better. Too much technology in the room and hotel with no explanation. I'm 32 and couldn't figure out how to use the elevator, the digital phone, or get into the room!
large room,decorations were top notch and tasteful. view was great and the privacy provided was second to none
lack of tussue dispensers in rooms spaces other than bath room.when calling down for info never directly reached front desk and one one occasion was switched several times.had to have ket cards reprogrammed twice due to their failure on two occasions trying to leave garage.
The helpful staff after discovering my room wasn't cleaned (pre-occupied)
A 45 minute wait for a new room key at 2 am , then get into new room with no remote for the television. Another twenty minutes waiting.
The help we had from bell hops was phenomenal. We tipped our last guy $15 because he was just so nice. The beds were extra comfortable.
When I booked our room for my husband and I to celebrate 2 nights away on our anniversary, I didn't expect to be mislead through photos. We booked a city view king superior. Once we got into our room, our shower looked entirely different (curtain verses glass) than the shower I thought I was booking not only according to booking.com, but also to the hotel's website. I called the front desk. I received no apologies. Only arguments. "No, you're in the right room. You booked a city view. Our standard rooms are only the glass showers." "Well, you're photos on your website say otherwise. That's a little misleading." He didn't care, nor did he apologize. I think the Hyatt Regency needs to update their room photos to accurately reflect the rooms. They're not as nice as they put out.
lots of loud people in the hall woke me up a few times
Parking fee was not disclosed at time of booking or check in, so it came as a surprise.

Burton Nug Snowboard
Way Better Than Burton
I was skeptical because I have owned and ridden other burtons and have not liked them much at all. This board handles totally different. It is light and maneuverable which i like. Great for playing around and spinning off everything you can find. Handles well at all speeds. Havnt tried it in pow yet but I plan on picking one up ASAP. Only down side is since there is not much of a tip and tail its hard to butter around. I butter was not smooth at all. All around fun board.

Sensor could improve one of nano research's most useful microscopes
December 17, 2014 3:31 pm | by Chad Boutin, NIST | News | CommentsSpotting molecule-sized features may become both easier and more accurate with a sensor developed at NIST. With their new design, NIST scientists may have found a way to sidestep some of the problems in calibrating atomic force microscopes (AFMs). The AFM is one of the main scientific workhorses of the nano age.
Neutron CT helps solve battery fire puzzle
December 12, 2014 10:43 am | by Daniel Hussey, NIST | News | CommentsEarlier this month, the NTSB released its Aircraft Incident Report on a fire aboard a Japan Airlines Boeing 787, concluding that the fire was probably caused by an internal short circuit within a cell of the lithium-ion battery.
Uniform nanowire arrays for science, manufacturing
December 8, 2014 8:36 am | by Kris Bertness, NIST | News | CommentsDefect-free nanowires with diameters in the range of 100 nm hold significant promise for numerous in-demand applications. That promise can't be realized, however, unless the wires can be fabricated in large uniform arrays using methods compatible with high-volume manufacture. To date, that has not been possible for arbitrary spacings in ultra-high vacuum growth.
Study makes case for RFID forensic evidence management
December 5, 2014 10:10 am | by NIST | News | CommentsRadio frequency identification (RFID) tags have become increasingly popular for tracking everything from automobiles being manufactured on an assembly line to zoo animals in transit to their new homes. Now, thanks to a new NIST report, the next beneficiaries of RFID technology may soon be law enforcement agencies responsible for the management of forensic evidence.
Thin, strong bond for vacuum seal
December 4, 2014 10:09 am | by Patrick Egan, NIST | News | CommentsAn ultra-stable, ultra-thin bonding technology has been adapted by researchers for use as a super-strong vacuum seal. Though it is less than 100 nm thick, the bond can withstand pressure up to 2 megapascals, and its drift, or how much it shifts over time, is on the order of less than 3 trillionths of a meter per hour.
First pictures of baby nanotubes
December 2, 2014 11:18 am | by NIST | News | CommentsSingle-walled carbon nanotubes are loaded with desirable properties. In particular, the ability to conduct electricity at high rates of speed makes them attractive for use as nanoscale transistors. But this and other properties are largely dependent on their structure, and their structure is determined when the nanotube is just beginning to form.
Study: Light may skew lab tests on nanoparticles' health effects
November 19, 2014 8:38 am | by Chad Boutin, NIST | News | CommentsTruth shines a light into dark places. But sometimes to find that truth in the first place, it's better to stay in the dark. That's what recent findings at NIST show about methods for testing the safety of nanoparticles. It turns out that previous tests indicating that some nanoparticles can damage our DNA may have been skewed by inadvertent light exposure in the lab.
Underperforming? Energy efficiency of HVAC equipment suffers due to poor installation
November 10, 2014 10:45 am | by NIST | News | CommentsThe push for more efficient air conditioners and heat pumps aims to trim the 30% share of residential electrical energy use devoted to cooling and heating. But the benefits of improved energy-efficiency ratings can go for naught if the equipment is not installed properly, as verified in a recent study from NIST.
Novel sodium-conducting material could improve rechargeable batteries
November 5, 2014 9:23 am | by NIST | News | CommentsRechargeable battery manufacturers may get a jolt from research performed at NIST and several other institutions, where a team of scientists has discovered a safe, inexpensive, sodium-conducting material that significantly outperforms all others in its class. The team's discovery is a sodium-based, complex metal hydride, a material with potential as a cheaper alternative to the lithium-based conductors used in many rechargeable batteries.
A quantum leap in nanoparticle efficiency
October 31, 2014 12:55 pm | News | CommentsIn an international study Univ. of Melbourne and NIST found that pairs of closely spaced nanoparticles made of gold can act as "optical antennas". These antennae concentrate the light shining on them into tiny regions located in the gap between the nanoparticles. Researchers found the precise geometry of nanoparticle pairs that maximizes light concentration, resolving a hotly debated area of quantum physics.
NIST "combs" atmosphere to measure greenhouse gases
October 30, 2014 8:36 am | by Laura Ost, NIST | News | CommentsBy remotely "combing" the atmosphere with a custom laser-based instrument, researchers from NIST, in collaboration with researchers from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), have developed a new technique that can accurately measure—over a sizeable distance—amounts of several of the major "greenhouse" gases implicated in climate change.
NIST offers electronics industry two ways to snoop on self-organizing molecules
October 23, 2014 12:33 pm | News | CommentsA few short years ago, the idea of a practical manufacturing process based on getting molecules to organize themselves in useful nanoscale shapes seemed far-fetched. Recent work at NIST, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and IBM Almaden Research Center suggest this capability isn't far off, however, by demonstrating self-assembly of thin films on a polymer template that creates precise rows just 10 nm wide.
NIST's finalizes cloud computing roadmap
October 23, 2014 9:41 am | News | CommentsThe final version of the U.S. Government Cloud Computing Technology Roadmap, Volumes I and II has been published by NIST.

Strengthening thin-film bonds with ultra-fast data collection
October 23, 2014 8:29 am | by Michael Baum, NIST | News | CommentsWhen studying extremely fast reactions in ultra-thin materials, two measurements are better than one. A new research tool invented by researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), Johns Hopkins Univ. and NIST captures information about both temperature and crystal structure during extremely fast reactions in thin-film materials.
NIST quantum probe enhances electric field measurements
October 9, 2014 8:37 am | News | CommentsResearchers at NIST and the Univ. of Michigan have demonstrated a technique based on the quantum properties of atoms that directly links measurements of electric field strength to the International System of Units. The new method could improve the sensitivity, precision and ease of tests and calibrations of antennas, sensors, and biomedical and nano-electronic systems and facilitate the design of novel devices.
Laser comb system maps 3-D surfaces remotely
October 8, 2014 9:37 am | News | CommentsResearchers at NIST have demonstrated a laser-based imaging system that creates high-definition 3-D maps of surfaces from as far away as 10.5 m. The method, which combines a form of laser detection and ranging that is sensitive enough to detect weak reflected light with the ranging accuracy made possible by frequency combs, may be useful in diverse fields, including precision machining and assembly, as well as in forensics.
NIST releases final version of Smart Grid Framework, update 3.0
October 3, 2014 11:51 am | News | CommentsThe National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has published its NIST Framework and Roadmap for Smart Grid Interoperability Standards, Release 3.0, a document that reflects advances in smart grid technologies and developments from NIST's collaborative work with industry stakeholders.

World's smallest reference material is a big plus for nanotechnology
September 25, 2014 9:44 am | News | CommentsIf it's true that good things come in small packages, then NIST can now make anyone working with nanoparticles very happy. The institute recently issued Reference Material (RM) 8027, the smallest known reference material ever created for validating measurements of man-made, ultrafine particles between 1 and 100 nm in size.
Polonium's most stable isotope gets revised half-life measurement
September 12, 2014 9:14 am | by NIST | News | CommentsScientists at NIST have determined that polonium-209, the longest-lived isotope of this radioactive heavy element, has a half-life about 25% longer than the previously determined value, which had been in use for decades. The new NIST measurements could affect geophysical studies such as the dating of sediment samples from ocean and lake floors.
Scientists shed light on organic photovoltaic characteristics
September 3, 2014 4:05 pm | News | CommentsThe most familiar photovoltaic (PV) designs use rigid layers of silicon crystal, but recently inexpensive organic semiconductor materials have also been used successfully. At this time, organic PV devices are hindered by low efficiency, in part because quantifying their electrical properties is a challenge. Researchers have now developed a method that allows the prediction of the current density-voltage curve of a photovoltaic device.
Optical microscope technique confirmed as valid nano measurement tool
August 27, 2014 11:22 am | by Chad Boutin, NIST | News | CommentsRecent experiments have confirmed that a technique developed several years ago at NIST can enable optical microscopes to measure the 3-D shape of objects at nanometer-scale resolution—far below the normal resolution limit for optical microscopy (about 250 nm for green light). The results could make the technique a useful quality control tool in the manufacture of nanoscale devices such as next-generation microchips.
Team finds first evidence of spin symmetry in atoms
August 22, 2014 9:07 am | by Laura Ost, NIST | News | CommentsJust as diamonds with perfect symmetry may be unusually brilliant jewels, the quantum world has a symmetrical splendor of high scientific value. Confirming this exotic quantum physics theory, JILA physicists have observed the first direct evidence of symmetry in the magnetic properties—or nuclear "spins"—of atoms.
Six nines: Ultra-enriched silicon paves the road to quantum computing
August 12, 2014 12:27 pm | News | CommentsUsing a relatively straightforward technique, a team of NIST researchers has created what may be the most highly enriched silicon currently being produced. The material is more than 99.9999% pure silicon-28, with less than 1 part per million (ppm) of the problematic isotope silicon-29. Many quantum computing schemes require isotopically pure silicon, for example to act as a substrate for qubits.

I'd like to take the Basic/Intermediate course in September since I've never had that type of training. I'll have to see if I can put the funds together for it. How long before you need payment?
I understand the need to seperate the civilians from law enforcement, are there courses available that address tactical building clearing and street survival for the everyday civilian?
People get the government they deserve.
Payments are ususally accepted up to one week prior to the course. The only problem with that is the courses have a tendency to fill way before then. I am adding a deposit option on the web page in the next week. This will allow you to reserve a spot with 50% deposit. As far as the LE type course, we offer the Civilian Street Survival course and have one coming up on July 17th. This course covers everything from room clearing, to drawing from a seated position in a vehicle and delivering fire. This is probably our best all around course that covers everything. Go to HERE to see this course description. I hope this helps and we look forward to training with you!
Thanks for the info Jason. Do you think the Street Survival course may be more practical for me?
If your looking for real world scenario's and a course that teaches drawing from a concealed carry position, basic room clearing (home protection), different types of ammunition and which to carry, then I think this is the best course for anyone who is looking for the practical aspect of firearms training.
Okay. I'll see what I can do.
Sounds good! We look forward to training with you at Sac Valley!

I thought it might be nice to share the quotes from eternaldisneyfan's Caringbridge page that she listed as her quotes to live by:
Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadows. Helen Keller You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses. ZIGGY It is only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye. Antoine de Saint-Exupé²¹ We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. Sir Winston Churchill When you come to the edge of all the light you know, and are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing one of two things will happen: There will be something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly. Barbara J. Winter TO BE SPIRITUALLY MINDED IS LIFE ETERNAL True independence and freedom can only exist in doing what's right. - Brigham Young It's not about getting what you want, it's about wanting what you get. Lyrics 'I'm Gonna Soak Up the Sun' My sayings By not trying, you automatically fail. Don?t expect from others what you don?t expect from yourself. Have an Attitude of Gratitude! Ultimate Fav' By Mattie Stepanek: Everything in life is a choice, even if the only choice we have is the attitude with which we embrace each moment.

Other El Atrio Once in the thick of things, this longtime favorite moved to a quiet street several blocks east of the bar scene...
Other Les 3 Diables A lively bar attracting a diverse crowd of disaffected university students, professionals taking the edge off and Peace Corps volunteers cutting loose...
Other Pueblo Viejo The best place for Latin dancing in town. This restaurant-club draws a somewhat older crowd, but never lacks for ambiance or energy - in fact, arrive late and you may not get a table...
Other La Ventana An unpretentious bar-restaurant that works just as well for an evening of European ales or a smart dinner of soups, crepes and other international fare. The modern sculpture and crowd are equally unpredictable.
Other Republik The hottest bar when we visited was easily Republik. Brass knobs and faux-oak panels are scratched up in time to the sexy basslines and soulful live sets in the back half of the week. Good mojitos (US$5) too.
Other Los Rinconcitos A sophisticated party-set lingers over stiff drinks and tapas at this former karaoke bar that sees Latin rock steal the stage on weekends. Head out back for some intimate outdoor entertainment.
Other Café La 'T' This is a little lefty cafe with live music (jazz or folk) on some Fridays (US$2) and free films on Wednesday and Thursday at 7:30pm. There's light food, beer and wine, and fine coffee.
Other Highland Bistro A raucous smoke-filled bar with two small rooms, and football shirts and movie posters instead of windows. There's live music most Fridays; expect a small cover charge.
Other Caminito Chocos This rowdy boutique beer hall heaves with drinkers and serves huge Argentine meat sandwiches and greasy, barbecued varietals.
Other Jungle When only the most raucous nightclub will do. It opens late and closes in time for desayuno (breakfast).
Other Cinépolis This movie chain is opening an 11-screen megaplex here. It was still under construction when we visited.
Other La Cueva Tiny bar with live music on weekends, intimate seating arrangements and a buzzing outdoor section.

Beer Garden Guide 2012
The patios for getting hoppy, movie nights, eating, hooking up, global drinking and so much more
Photograph: Jeremy Bolen
Drinking games will only get you so far. Head to these spots when the night calls for darts, bags or a mechanical bull.
Not all beer gardens are German. If you order right at these joints, you'll get an international experience that's (sort of) just like visiting the mother country.
At a great beer garden, you want to stay all night. The prices at these outdoor patios let you do just that.

With the real market value (stock price) of Facebook continuing to decline from its IPO offering of $38 (as of this writing the price was below $26.50), rumors are starting to abound about Apple buying Facebook. But does that really make any sense? We've heard Tim Cook say Apple buys companies for two reasons: talent and/or technology. While Facebook has some of both the value of the company is in the data it has collected and its massive user base.
Thinking a little different, there is another player out there that might be more suited to gobble up Facebook and it isn't Google.
Enter into the picture Microsoft. Microsoft already bought equity in Facebook a few years back by "investing" over $1 billion. Facebook uses Microsoft's Bing search engine for web search results. Microsoft doesn't have the narrow criteria that Apple does when it comes to purchasing other companies. We also know that Microsoft likes to make big splashes on the front page news by purchasing big companies (Skype, the attempt on Yahoo!... and others). Finally Microsoft totally missed the "social network" craze launched in the last decade. If they had been first they could've built it into Windows and had a real juggernaut.
If Microsoft were to purchase Facebook, it would be the biggest take-over/merger since HP bought out Compaq. The merger would gobble up lots energy on both sides trying to figure out how to merge the companies and cultures as well as the internal turf wars — trying to protect jobs. It is uncertain how many years it would take for Microsoft to recover the cash outlay/stock swap for Facebook. All in all, it would be a risky gamble, but right now Microsoft is a ship that is going down (as far as dominance). Microsoft's strategy to say relevenat may be to add the Facebook buoy to its ship.
Time will tell if this happens, but if Facebook's stock continues to decline, the smart money is on Microsoft making an attempt to buy Facebook.

Adler Confident Rose Will Approve Guns Reunion
Former GUNS N' ROSES drummer STEVEN ADLER is optimistic singer Axl Rose will join the rest of the band's legendary line-up to celebrate the 20th anniversary of classic album APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION.
On Saturday (28Jul07), Adler was reunited with guitarists Slash and Izzy Stradlin and bassist Duff MCKagan at a Los Angeles' Key Club event marking 20 years since Appetite For Destruction's 1987 release.
Although Rose, the only original member of Guns N' Roses still in the band, didn't attend the celebration, Adler is confident the reclusive frontman will change his mind and meet up with his former bandmates.
Adler, who has battled drug addiction, says, "I believe I made it this far for some reason. I want to finish what we started, and with the love and support I got from those guys, I think we can (reunite).
"I'm gonna leave it up to Axl. That's gonna be Axl's call, and I love Axl and I know he'll make the right call."

WATCH: Blake Griffin dunks over Elton Brand
Blake Griffin already has a plethora of poster dunks, so why not add Elton Brand to the group! This game was filled with highlight dunks, like the one Caron Butler had just before Griffin's dunk that had the crowd buzzing. Blake Griffin actually had another dunk that was very reminiscent of this dunk later in the game. One thing should be noted, Griffin threw a couple dunks down with his left hand. This in my opinion only makes the degree of difficulty even higher. In this particular dunk he fumbled the Chris Paul pass and brought it up in traffic for the powerful slam! Amazing!
Check it out!

ZeitounWhen Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, Abdulrahman Zeitoun, a prosperous Syrian-American and father of four, chose to stay through the storm to protect his house and contracting business. In the days after the storm, he traveled the flooded streets in a secondhand canoe, passing on supplies and helping those he could. A week later, on September 6, 2005, Zeitoun abruptly disappeared. Eggers's riveting nonfiction book, three years in the making, explores Zeitoun's roots in Syria, his marriage to Kathy — an American who converted to Islam — and their children, and the surreal atmosphere (in New Orleans and the United States generally) in which what happened to Abdulrahman Zeitoun was possible. Like What Is the What, Zeitoun was written in close collaboration with its subjects and involved vast research — in this case, in the United States, Spain, and Syria. |
