Feb 21st 2007 3:43PM @8 I'm sorry my "retarded" comment offended you. But, in all honesty how is calling someone retarded any different than calling them "a slack jawed yokel"? Don't use one derogatory phrase to defend another. In addition, I DID read your other comment about kids with autism. Quite frankly, I don't give a shit. Good for them. Did you know that they can also solve puzzles to break top secret government code? I guess even a slack jawed yokel can figure that out.
And the award for world's worst WoW player goes to... {WoW}
Feb 21st 2007 2:19PM This is so strange. I was on Drak'thul and sure enough people were spamming over the trade channel making fun of Lynyrd. I normally ignore the gibberish that scrolls up in the lower left of my screen. This, however, caught my eye. They were poking fun of his name at the time. His defense was, "Freebird is the most requested song of all time at concerts!"
I thought that was a rather shotty attempt at a rebuttal but given his obvious retardation...he definitely claims the worst WoW player award.

Here's someone else who's doing it right. G-Cube make covers for your computer to make it look something other than grey. The cover designs range from dusky pink shades through tasteful dragonflies to fun animal prints. But here's why they're good: They make matching covers for *all* your peripherals, so can really match. And you don't have to buy a new mouse to match your new 'enchanted blue' computer. They have covers for mice and mini-mice, laptops, keyboards, webcams and USB hubs (although just one shape, but you can't ask for everything) so you really can kit everything out to match without buying any new hardware. Congratulations to G-Cube for being the second thing I like of the day. (Here's the first.)

Methysergide is an ergot alkaloid useful in the treatment of migraine headache. In 1964, Graham (1) described two patients on chronic methysergide therapy who developed retroperitoneal fibrosis. Since then, fibrosis associated with methysergide has also been reported to involve the pleura, lung, endocardium, heart valves, and great vessels (1-3). We describe a patient who developed constrictive pericarditis while on chronic methysergide therapy.
A 77-year-old woman was admitted to North Carolina Memorial Hospital with dyspnea and edema. Five years earlier she was evaluated at an affiliated hospital for a right pleural effusion and pleural fibrosis. At that time, skin testing with

Frank33 commented on the blog post Calvin Freiburger Does Not Care For Your Vagina Bowling Name
This is OT but you do have a tag "I touch myself". And Breitbart .com is part of this. That is, this, TBogg is becoming serious punditry. He is so serious people are stealing his material!
Breitbart.com's Joel Pollak explained that the 'Forward' "borrows…from decades of communist iconography." Pollak checks off a litany of scary historixcal world leaders whose lineage Obama is supposedly following, from Marx, Stalin, and Mao, to Benito Mussolini, to Thabo Mbeki, the former president of South Africa. "Communist leaders frequently used — and still use — the word 'forward,'" he notes.
The Washington Times also sees a "rich association with European Marxism," quoting at length from Wikipedia to prove the point.
Meanwhile, ever-hyperbolic blogger Jim Hoft went straight for Hitler, writing that 'Forward' was a "marching song of the Hitler youth." He added a helpful illustration of Hitler Youth wearing Obama pins.
Most of us did not make the connection of Obama and the Hitler Youth. But, a historian such as Pat Buchanan can connect those dots.

Petronas Towers
Petronas Towers
Twin stainless-steel-clad skyscrapers, linked by a skybridge, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Designed by Cesar Pelli (b. 1926) and completed in 1998, the circular, step-tapered towers house the headquarters of Malaysia's national petroleum company. Each tower is 88 stories high, has a structural frame of high-strength, steel-reinforced concrete, and reaches a height of 1,483 ft (451.9 m)a figure that includes a pinnacle and steel spire atop each. In 1996, after achieving their full height, the towers were considered the world's tallest buildings, surpassing the then-tallest Sears Tower; they, in turn, were superseded in 2003 by the Taipei 101 (Taipei Financial Center) building in Taipei, Taiwan, that rose to 1,667 ft (508 m).

At Tokyo Sushi & Grill, chefs spin out plates of authentic Asian eats alongside a sumptuous spread of quality sushi. Fish fans can fill their tuna tanks with mouthwatering morsels of white tuna ($2.25), yellowtail ($2.25), belly tuna ($4.25), or spicy tuna ($6.50), or mix and match any number of specialty sushi items to create a custom conglomeration of fresh fish, sticky rice, and chopped veggies. Complementing the sushi-heavy repertoire, Tokyo Sushi & Grill draws from the deep wells of Japanese and Thai culinary traditions. The shrimp tempura finds deep-fried succulent jumbo shrimp sharing prime plate real estate with battered vegetables and a tangy dipping sauce ($7.95 for lunch; $9.95 for dinner), and the crazy noodles entree earns its name by throwing together egg noodles, onions, carrots, pea pods, and bean sprouts in a mad mash-up, paired with your choice of protein and 17 copies of The Catcher in the Rye ($7.95–$10.95).
In woks at Bangkok Cuisine, snow peas, shrimp, napa cabbage, and scallops sizzle in a symphony of familiar sounds and tasty smells. Ingredients indigenous to Southeast Asia mingle in traditional Thai dishes, which also draw on the culinary traditions of the country's neighbors. Catfish fillets marinate before chefs cover them in breading and garlic sauce, and shrimp, scallops, and squid evoke Thailand's palm-tree-sprinkled coast. Chefs tailor each dish's spiciness to individual palates, delighting daring diners with thai peppers that can taste mild or hotter than two astronauts making out on the surface of Venus. Fusion dishes include Chinese staples such as sweet 'n' sour sauce.
Winner of Oakland Press Best of the Best awards for 2011, 2012, and 2013, Bangkok Cuisine excites diners' palates with the exotic flavors of authentic Thai cooking. Gracious servers present plates prepared by master chefs, one of whom schooled newscasters about noodles on Fox 2 Cooking School. Exotic and nutritious ingredients indigenous to Southeast Asia mingle in each carefully prepared recipe, which have been refined over Bangkok Cuisine's more than 30 years in business. Snow peas, shrimp, napa cabbage, and scallops snap sizzling drumrolls in woks over the stove. Catfish fillets marinate before chefs cover them in breading and garlic sauce, and shrimp, scallops, and squid evoke Thailand?s palm-tree-sprinkled coast.

Founded by two brothers descended from a long line of Thai chefs, Khom Fai whips up authentic cuisine in a relaxed, modern setting. The menu ranges from mouth-watering to mouth-scorching, but doles out ample servings of both for Thai bingers of all experience levels. Appetizers of seafood rangoon ($5.50) and coconut soup ($4) synchronize the taste buds for Khom Fai's traditional entrees. Newbies can wade into the timeless pad thai served with a choice of chicken, beef, tofu, or veggies ($8.50, $10 with shrimp) and those who have mastered the tiger-prawn uppercut head straight for the sizzling Khom Fai crispy chicken, fried with a honey-sesame glaze ($8.50). A plate of thai fried ice cream dolloped with vanilla custard and chocolate syrup gives the meal a sweeter finish than most episodes of Are You Smarter Than a Raptor? ($5).
As if winning the admiration of customers across Detroit wasn't enough, Chrystyna Adams, head chef and owner of Christine's Cuisine, went ahead and earned a spot in Rachael Ray's heart with her homemade pierogies, which the Food Network star deemed the best in Michigan. And pierogies aren't the only thing the Chrystyna can make. As Dining in the D discovered, the talented chef transforms beets and sour cream into decadent Ukrainian borsch, and keeps potato pancakes light, crispy, with her not-so-secret secret: adding oil to the batter, rather than the pan.
Yet, like David Hasselhoff's popularity, Chrystyna doesn't stop in Eastern Europe. Her hand-written menus showcase items from across the globe. She brings flavors from Italy and Greece with eggplant parmesan and chicken athena dabbled with feta; she sends a shout out to America and its love for grilling and cows with blackened burgers paired with potato chips; and, she even turns breakfast up a notch with smoked salmon omelets, peanut butter and jelly waffles, and bacon and cheddar pancakes.

There's no denying that the Daft Punk helmets sported by the French duo make quite the statement, which is why the Etsy store Maz Power Props is offering fans the opportunity to own their own Daft Punk helmets.
The helmet is made from urethane plastic and has a nice chrome finish. The visor showcases scrolling LEDs that a person can program through a USB to input a personalized message. The visor can also be removed if the wearer decides not to look awesome. The helmet also comes with chromed gloves and a black balaclava to protect your neck.
The only issue that the helmet has is that it can only fit "medium sized heads," which is a real downer for some people.

Watch thieves prey on rich
Comment on this storyCannes, France -
Police on the French Riviera are on the hunt for a gang who have, in the last two weeks, ripped more than a million euros' worth of luxury watches from the wrists of their wealthy owners.
The thieves have been operating on the southern French coast since mid-July.
They count among their victims a Russian who was robbed of his 550 000-euro "Richard Mille" timepiece as he returned to his Cannes weekend residence in a Bentley.
The gang's modus operandi involves identifying the owners of valuable watches and then following them to their cars.
As they prepare to drive off, one of the gang whizzes past on a scooter and deliberately clips the car's wing mirror.
When the driver reaches out to put it back in place, a second scooter arrives and the passenger wrestles the watch from the unsuspecting victim's wrist.
Police believe the robberies are the work of a gang from Naples, Italy that was behind a string of similar thefts in Cannes between 2007 and 2009. - Sapa-AFP

Stanford University biologist Deborah M. Gordon and her co-workers describe the findings in the Sept. 22 issue of the journal Nature. The discovery was made during a four-year field study led by Stanford graduate student Megan E. Frederickson in the Amazon jungle of western Peru. The research focused on devil's gardens, mysterious tracts of vegetation that randomly appear in the Amazonian rainforest.
"Devil's gardens are large stands of trees in the Amazonian rainforest that consist almost entirely of a single species, Duroia hirsuta, and, according to local legend, are cultivated by an evil forest spirit," write Frederickson and her colleagues in Nature. "Here we show that the ant, Myrmelachista schumanni, which nests in D. hirsuta stems, creates devil's gardens by poisoning all plants except its hosts with formic acid. By killing other plants, M. schumanni provides its colonies with abundant nest sites--a long-lasting benefit, as colonies can live for 800 years."
Devilish ants
Most tropical rainforests are densely populated with a remarkable diversity of trees, vines, shrubs and wildflowers. But devil's gardens usually consist of a single plant, D. hirsuta, which happens to be the preferred habitat of the devil's garden ant, M. schumanni.
In addition to the evil-spirit legend, two scientific proposals have been offered to explain why devil's gardens occur. One hypothesis is that D. hirsuta trees release toxic secretions that kill competing plants--a process botanists call allelopathy. Others argue that devil's garden ants are responsible for controlling vegetation, either by extensive pruning or poisoning. "The idea is that by killing other plants, the insects create a space for young D. hirsuta saplings to grow, thereby allowing the ant colony to expand as it occupies new nesting sites in

Zip Line USA's steel cables carve more than three miles of winding trails through Ozark Mountain treetops, all ripe for exploration by guests. Designed by the respected brains at Universal Zipline Technology, the ziplines soar higher than 350 feet in the air at some points—just high enough to make eye contact with low-flying spaceships—and are dissected into chunks as long as 3,250 feet. Between each section stands a sky bridge or platform, where guides securely hitch tourgoers to cables, which they inspect each morning. Patrons zoom through the open skies for up to two hours during the day or 90 minutes at night, when only the soft glow of lanterns beckons them to the next platform like a lightning-bug mother welcoming its family home at night.
A replica of Mount Rushmore reigns over the Hollywood Wax Museum—but instead of bearing faces of American presidents, the mugs of John Wayne, Charlie Chaplin, Marilyn Monroe, and Elvis welcome visitors into the museum's collection of celebrity wax figures. Each lifelike figure is meticulously crafted over the course of three months, resulting in uncanny stand-ins for stars such as Lucille Ball, Samuel L. Jackson, Willie Nelson, and Will Smith. Counter to the velvet ropes and glass cases of most museums, guests of the Hollywood Wax Museum can walk right up and touch their favorite figures, getting a taste of fame as they share the spotlight with them for unique photo ops. Celebrity trivia accompanies each figure across the two-level, multi-million-dollar facility, such as stars' accomplishments, the names of their pets, or which moon of Jupiter they own a resort on. After patrons max out on wax, they can head next door to Hannah's Maze of Mirrors, where reflective surfaces obfuscate players' paths as they rescue Princess Hannah from a wicked spell.
Outside the World's Largest Toy Museum, two larger-than-life toy soldiers flank the entranceway, which leads to a collection of more than one million toys from the 19th century to today. The proprietors have neatly organized their eclectic memorabilia on wooden and glass shelving, and bigger items hang from the ceilings. Visitors experience fascination and nostalgia while browsing antique tin fire trucks, a 1959 British Embassy Rolls-Royce, superhero action figures, and retro lunchboxes, a more compact version of the dinner trays kids used to carry to school.
The Harold Bell Wright Museum is a special area of the World's Largest Toy Museum dedicated to a local hero and scribe. Learn about the author's life and dedication to penning articles, screenplays, and novels, including 1907's The Shepherd of the Hills. This story, which was once a staple of required classroom reading, helped make Branson, Missouri, a popular spot for tourists.
In 1987?75 years after the RMS Titanic sank?John Joslyn helped lead an expedition to the bottom of the sea to photograph the wreck and bring up artifacts. Today, the gigantic permanent and interactive Titanic ship museum in Branson that he founded holds authentic items from the Titanic numbering in the thousands and valued at $4.5 million. But the museum's accoutrements of Edwardian life?items ranging from cutlery to deck chairs that fill meticulously accurate reproductions of the million-dollar grand staircase, the third-class sleeping rooms, and the cozy second-class space between the floorboards?are only part of the visitor's experience here. Interactive exhibits are also a permanent attraction, letting families touch an iceberg walk the grand staircase, learn to steer a ship and send an SOS signal, and perhaps even meet the museum?s pair of dog mascots. The kid friendly environment welcomes guests of all ages. A ship walk through typically takes two-hours.
In their native environments, tropical butterflies flutter among the rainforest's palm trees and blooming orchids. The Butterfly Palace & Rainforest Adventure adds humans to that equation, permitting visitors to walk through a tropical aviary designed to be a living rainforest. Here, thousands of butterflies imported from rainforests the world over, including Costa Rica and Australia, freely roam alongside tropical birds and exotic plants.
Other rainforest inhabitants such as red eyed tree frogs and chameleons reside inside The Butterfly Palace's Living Rainforest Science Center. A nearby screening room hosts a documentary on the Monarch migration and a 3D movie of the butterfly life cycle. The facility's other immersive attractions include the Emerald Forest Mirror Maze and the Great Banyan Tree Bungee Adventure, simulating a real Banyan Tree from the rainforest.

Job Opportunities Being Created through the Affordable Care Act: A Discussion with Faith and Community Leaders
The Department of Health & Human Services' Partnership Center hosted a national conference call to discuss career opportunities being created in health care through the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
Dr. Mary Wakefield, Administrator of the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), discussed current programs and initiatives, as they relate to development of the health care workforce. As the highest ranking nurse in the Obama Administration, Dr. Wakefield understands the critical link between a robust and trained workforce and strong health care services in local communities: "With the Affordable Care Act (ACA) investments, we expect to double the number of people seen at community health centers between now and about 2015," said Wakefield.
Through academic and public health collaborations, HRSA is fostering opportunities in health care careers, providing underserved and impoverished communities with high quality primary care. In addition, through investments in the ACA, programs like the National Health Services Corps can increase the number of clinicians supported.
Also participating in the call were Burt Waller and Dr. Mary Hill. Waller is the Executive Director of Christ Community Health Services in Memphis, TN and Hill serves as Associate Dean of the Division of Nursing at Howard University's College of Pharmacy, Nursing & Allied Health Sciences in Washington, DC. Both gave firsthand accounts of how the ACA is making a difference in their communities.
Waller shared the story of a recent graduate who wanted to establish a dentistry practice in an underserved area. After accumulating nearly $200,000 in school-related debt, he was considering starting the practice in an affluent community. Burt's organization worked with the young man to apply for a National Health Service Corps loan repayment. Once the repayment was awarded, he was able to establish his practice in a neighborhood that previously had no dental services for its low-income residents.
Dr. Hill also spoke about the impact of these investments. She said, "As a result of [health care reform], we now have an opportunity to make significant contributions in increasing access to affordable care through our efforts to educate the next generation of the primary care workforce." Howard University has implemented a Registered Nurse to Bachelors of Science Nursing online program, which has helped to double its enrollment of upper division students entering the clinical nursing program. Dr. Hill also discussed the university's future plans to establish a community health center for underserved and uninsured populations through a Nurse Managed Health Center.
Dr. Wakefield provided the best summary of the discussion. She said the Affordable Care Act is "recalibrating health care by focusing on services that keep people healthy and helping them manage their chronic conditions rather than simply waiting until they are ill and in need of more intense expensive care."
As a follow-up to the call, here are some helpful ways to share this information to local communities and congregations:
- Promote National Health Service Corps scholarship opportunities for primary care training. For more information, go to http://nhsc.hrsa.gov/scholarship/
- Educate about opportunities in health careers and job training programs. For more information, go to http://bhpr.hrsa.gov/grants/affordablecareact.htm
Share information with primary care and mental health providers about how their student loans may be repaid through the National Health Service Corps.
For more information go to http://nhsc.hrsa.gov/loanrepayment/
As we continue on the path to economic recovery and healthier communities, this discussion reminds us that pursuing a career in health care is a sound and noble way to serve the community.
Please send any comments or questions to partnerships (at) hhs.gov.

'Abe Lincoln in Illinois' sheds light on a hero's rugged path to greatness
Review: "Abe Lincoln in Illinois" at Intiman humanizes and illuminates the coming of age of our revered 16th president, writes Misha Berson.
Seattle Times theater critic
'Abe Lincoln in Illinois'
By Robert E. Sherwood, runs Tuesdays-Sundays through Nov. 15 at Intiman Theatre, Seattle Center; $10-$55 (206-269-1900 or www.intiman.org).In Intiman Theatre's "Abe Lincoln in Illinois," we first meet the title character in the early 1830s, as a rugged, uncouth young fellow with no money, little self-esteem, few prospects — but a voracious intellect, and a gift for friendship.
When we leave Mr. Lincoln, in 1861, bearded and formally garbed, he's standing on a railway platform. Tested and tempered by marriage, political service and a solidified moral commitment to national liberty and unity, he bids his youth and Illinois friends farewell to fulfill his destiny as our country's 16th president.
Between these two iconic images of Lincoln, playwright Robert E. Sherwood has celebrated a revered leader, and humanized his rugged path to greatness.
But in Intiman Theatre's splendidly fluid staging of the rarely performed, Pulitzer Prize-honored, 1939 drama, director Sheila Daniels also stresses how it took a village to prod, encourage and ready Lincoln for the trials that awaited him in Washington, D.C.
The community conjured here is not the small army of actors called for in Sherwood's script, but 19 performers seamlessly shifting through many roles and a dozen scenes — the latter interlinked by rousing folk tunes led by musical director John Ackermann.
To keep this epic (the first in Intiman's second American Cycle series) laudably brisk and smooth, Daniels and set designer Mikiko Suzuki MacAdams created a simple, elegant visual framework. A pair of rough wooden towers bracket the stage. And a neutral back screen allows for the silhouetted tableaus and rich-hued vistas in L.B. Morse's incandescent lighting scheme.
In less skilled and adept hands, the script might well bog down in the heavy furnishings and plodding dramaturgy of its outmoded genre: the reverential history pageant.
But there's no concealing that "Abe Lincoln in Illinois" has only one fully formed character. Fortunately, he is the ever-fascinating Abe Lincoln. And he is conveyed in a variegated, richly moving portrayal by Erik Lochtefeld.
With dynamics rather than melodramatics, Lochtefeld evokes a conflicted man with a civil war "going on inside of me" long before he presided over the national Civil War.
Lochtefeld's honest, fretful Abe is "no fighting man," but doesn't hesitate to rough up the town bully (played by Matt Shimkus). Bashful and uncertain with women, he manages to woo and wed the higher-born Mary Todd (Mary Jane Gibson).
This is Abe the witty raconteur who frustrates loyal friends — businessman Josh Speed (Hans Altwies), politician Ninian Edwards (Reginald Andre Jackson) — with his mercurial nature and lack of ambition.
And this is the Abe prone to bouts of morbid depression and guilt. In one fraught scene, Lochtefeld's weeping, distraught Lincoln nearly commits suicide over the death of first love Ann Rutledge (Angela DiMarco).
Tall and lanky, with unkempt dark hair and a slanted gait that suggests a skiff leaning into a hard wind, Lochtefeld is a good physical match for Lincoln.
And in a tenor voice (pitched like Lincoln's) he eloquently delivers excerpts of famed speeches — most memorably, a brilliantly argued attack on slavery from Abe's senatorial election debates with Stephen Douglas (the equally articulate R. Hamilton Wright).
The rest of the solid cast makes what it can of utilitarian supporting roles, with Altwies' genial Josh, Peter Dylan O'Connor's impassioned Billy Herndon (Lincoln's Springfield law partner) and Russell Hodgkinson (a shrewd Whig Party pol) providing jots of personality.
Gibson makes a prim, demanding but not very convincing Mary Lincoln, a future First Lady as complex as her husband — and even more mentally fragile.
As a citizen of his own time, Sherwood consciously drew parallels in the play between the totemic U.S. debate over states' rights and slavery and the fierce debate over whether the U.S. should enter World War II. (A former pacifist, the playwright considered it morally imperative to fight fascism.)
"Abe Lincoln in Illinois" also speaks to our own era on occasion. The political corruption Lincoln faced, the challenges in leading a divided nation, his quest to uphold "the fundamental virtues of our democracy" — these echo ongoing tensions in the American experiment.
The show is very suitable for young patrons — but not just as history lesson. It's also an act of theatrical resurrection that turns a musty work into an immediate, enriching experience about a life cut tragically short — but very meaningfully lived.

Pixies has been revived. The alternative-rock legends are set to embark on a 33-city tour from mid-January to March with support from Best Coast, Cults, and Fidlar. The previously announced 2013-14 world tour (which launch last weekend) takes them across Europe through November.
The band released a four-track called EP-1 on September 3rd, following bassist Kim Deal's departure earlier this year. "Everyone was just devastated," said the Pixies' manager Richard Jones to Rolling Stone. "But everybody believed in the songs. We decided to just carry on and see what happens." The current lineup comprises singer-guitarist Black Francis, singer-bassist Kim Shattuck, guitarist-singer Joey Santiago, and drummer-singer David Lovering. The born-again Pixies can still be formidable, as they demonstrated on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last month.
"For what's missing, I'll sacrifice my flesh," Francis sings in the Pixies' wistful, restrained "Andro Queen," whose recent music video is directed by Ondi Timoner. In fact, the band sacrifices its own faces to wear animal masks in the video, which is interspersed with sun-gleaming road footage and the revitalized energy of live-performances. Check out Andro Queen's journey here — and here's the full list of tour dates!

By C. Trent Rosecrans
ST. LOUIS -- Brewers starter Randy Wolf isn't starting tonight and he say he wasn't worried about getting Game 3 of the NLCS in ahead of rain here, but he did worry enough to check out the forecast.
"According to my AccuWeather I have on my iPhone, we are not supposed to get any rain, so I think we are going to be OK," Wolf said. "It's usually pretty right, too."
The Weather Channel app on my iPhone said there was supposed to be rain all afternoon and possible through the night, but I haven't felt a drop yet, so maybe I should change apps -- even though the skies have been gray all day and it's looked like it could rain at any minute.
"Cautiously optimistic is kind of the way I would explain it," Cardinals manager Tony La Russa said before the game. "They think -- the latest check was 3 p.m. They are going to check again at 5 p.m. They are optimistic that we can play. But they are also, by the way, they were very clear, the Commissioner does not want a lot of delays, interruptions and (the like.)"
Ron Roenicke said he'd talked to Joe Garagiola Jr. of the commissioner's office and they don't want anything to mess with the starters -- especially with the matchup of the team's two best pitchers.
"I think probably if we get to about the 6:30 mark is really an important time when -- if we are going to start this thing on time and what we are going to do. Because you get farther than that, and we run into a situation where we ran into this year, where both starters were warmed up and walking off the field and we had an hour-and-a-half delay," Roenicke said. "Something I'm sure the Yankee-Detroit game had something to do with that and what happened. So those are tough calls, because there's some times when -- right now it looks like it's drizzle, but something can happen later on where it builds up more."
With rain being the only thing to mar this postseason so far, it's obvious that baseball wouldn't want another game changed by the weather. Both the Detroit-New York ALDS and the ALCS have had delays and rainouts. The National League has been lucky so far -- helped by the fact both Milwaukee and Arizona have retractable domes. But of course, today's the first game the Brewers have had without a dome in the postseason, so there's rain in order.
Maybe it's just following Wolf.
"You know, my first years in Philadelphia, I was nicknamed the Rain Man, because it seemed like every time I pitched, it rained," Wolf said. "But I learned, you just get ready for the game and you don't worry about what the weather is, because that's another external thing you can't control. But I think (Yovani Gallardo), today, he's going to be ready to pitch; he always is. I don't think that will be much of a concern."

Quoted from BuzyBee Most mornings I make a super smoothie which includes 1/2 carrot, handful of baby spinach, frozen strawberries, pineapple, peaches, dark cherries, wild blueberries, pumpkin seeds, almonds, spoon of ground flaxseed, spoon of brown rice protein powder, pomegranate juice, aloe juice, and soy yogurt. Hope I didn't forget anything. I put this in my Vitamix and mix it into a smoothie.If I don't have a smoothie then I eat my granola oat berry cereal which is high in fiber. Then for dinner I may have black bean soup. I don't eat dairy or red meat which are rough on the digestive system for A's so I am not sure what else I can do to add more fiber to my diet. Other than an all natural fiber supplement I am just not sure what else to do.
Quoted from Mrs T O+ For some of us, dairy ... they get the runs.Lots of fruits & veggies help. Beans don't really work for

LBT-1212O | 12 Inch LED Industrial Open Frame MonitorThe LBT-1212O, 12.1(12) Inch Industrial LED Open Frame Monitor with a 4:3 Aspect ratio is one of Caltron's more popular sizes and is a unique size because it has a higher resolution than most typical 4:3 aspect 12 inch monitors. This 12.1 inch open frame monitor generally has an 800 x 600 resolution LCD panel, but in this specific model, not only is the resolution higher to deliver a much more crisp picture, but this unit also has greater viewing angles. What does the LBT-1212O have a high screen resolution? The typical screen resolution for a 12 inch monitor is 800 x 600, but the LBT-1212O has a screen resolution of 1024 x 768. With higher resolution, comes, higher viewing angles. About 80o L/R and U/D, which means, that this unit, can be used, in a wide variety of places and applications. How did the LBT-1212O get a higher resolution? With the LED backlit LCD panel, the LCD panel itself is capable of getting an optimal resolution of 1024 x 768. In most cases, it is usually dependent on whether the panel can handle the higher resolution or not, and in this case, the LCD panel can. With an LED backlit panel, the unit is able to emit more brightness while using less energy to do so at the same time. With a brighter screen, superior viewing angles and small footprint, this 12.1 inch open frame monitor is the ideal solution for any application that requires a 12 inch monitor. A few applications that the unit can go into, would be instrumentation panels, control panels, Kiosks, ATMs or signage displays. Just like all of Caltron's other open frame monitors, this 12.1 inch monitor has a chassis that is milled from a CNC machine to ensure quality and reliability. Specs

Caudex 1.5"-2.5" width. Circumference unknown. Approximately 10" tall. |

I almost forgot. Do Adenium rebloom from old flower 'socket '? After flower drop I usually pinch off socket. |
You cannot relate the caudex size diameter or circumference as to whether the plant will flower. At 1.5" - 2.5" you could see a bloom, but age of plant, amt.of sunlight and number of hours, vigor of the plant, nutritional requirements met. All play a part. When comes right down to it, they will bloom when they are ready. I wish I could give you a definitive answer, but I do not believe there is. Rick |
No, they don't rebloom from socket, socket drop off after few days. Marie |

A lot of confusion with cost plus pricing vs. value pricing. Cost-plus would mean the price is the same in all regions after PPP. Value pricing is charging what the market will bear. Prices are lower in 'poorer' regions as that is what those markets will bear. Prices are higher in Europe - ditto.
This is without 3G version, which is very very interesting enough; if you could gather info on data plan, then that will be also interesting. Data plan of iPad 3g is cheaper than that of iphone.
@Eraserhead "Possibly its cheaper in China because its made there."
Logical thinking but sadly not true. If things worked that way, milk, lamb and a good pino noir would be cheap in New Zealand. They ain't.
That's great. People in poor countries should spend less money to enjoy the new technique benefits. I think that is a market strategy. Regardless of the real value of the product, the company launches ipad throughout the world and let world people getting to the product and the company. They can occupy the the market in all the main market countries in advance. The difference in the price in poor countries could be a form of the cost of advertisement. If I buy version 1 in a cheap price and know well how to work and play on it, I am prone to buy version 2 and 3 other than other product, though another product maybe a little cheaper than version 2 or 3.
I think I can survive with a "NoPad", thank you v much!
I would like to see avg IQ on a secondary axis please. LOL.
Possibly its cheaper in China because its made there.
I am pretty sure Argentina must be one of the worst countries to buy it or import it. 50% technology import tax, low per capita GDP in U$ plus retailers price with huge margins. Anyone got that info?
Why are they comparing the nominal cost of a product vs "real" income? To accurately compare, it should be against nominal income.
Why India is not on the chart. wonder how much it sells in india.
Except for switzerland, all the prices are around $500 to $600.
The Eurozone are all about the same, and the others aren't that far off. I wouldn't call this a significant variance. The sales taxes account for more difference...
"In China and Mexico, the device may be cheaper because people are poorer."
Are you being serious?
Does the fact that the asterisc is only placed next to the GDP per capita figures suggest that the figures indicating the varying dollar (!) price tags in different countries are at market rates (and NOT at PPP rates)? I mean currently 700 dollars equal "only" about 500 euros (still would't buy it, it doesn't chage my preferences of course, but I just wanted to point out that to me the chart is not a 100 per cent clear).
I'm always amazed how cheap electronic goods are in Canada! Your table seems to confirm this, and anecdotal evidence from my recent visit in Hong Kong would seem to confirm this. What is it with Canada that electronic goods are so cheap...
C'mon no iMac index title ;)
Dear Sir,
Under the assumption that prices in Mexico may be cheaper because people are poorer, the article fails to acknowledge that the pricing strategy could try to prevent arbitrage practices.
As you can see North America's prices are within the same range (US, Canada, Mexico). So do European prices. Prices in Mexico are probably not low because the poorness of the country, but to prevent price imbalances among the same region. As you should know, if price in Mexico goes far above US price, you will get a lot of iPads moving from US (cheaper price) to Mexico, profiting with the price difference (but not to Apple's pockets).
It doesn't matter anyway - wherever you go, the iPad is overpriced. There's no getting away from that fact. And the suckers will still pull out their credit cards for one.
The talk about lower prices in Mexico and China because people are poorer is just talk. Mexico has a GDP that is 30% higher than Brazil, yet Brazil is not even in the chart. The reason for that is that those gadgets in Brazil cost usually 2 to 3 times what they cost in the US. Brazil has for instance the most expensive iPod in the world.
Tax on imported goods is very high, but of course it is not enough to explain such a distortion. I believe the iPad is not even being sold in Brazil at the time because the price would be too high.
Once a country pays up such astronomic prices, companies don't forget it and prices don't come down that easily.
So, how many big macs for an iPad?
Foreign companies seems stuck in the idea that the Euro and the Dollar should be worth the same. Its not! Lower the prices for products in Europe already to reflect that reality.
Why should Windows 7 cost same in Dollar and Euro?
Why should a PS3 cost the same in Dollar and Euro?
It shouldnt!!!!!!!!!!!

Lecture-free College Model Blazes Path For Next Generation Learning
MESA, Ariz., Feb. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Active learning, student engagement and interactive learning environments have become popular buzz words in academia, which is striving to change the traditional lecture-based classroom approach in higher education and boost student involvement, understanding and even enrollment.
But an emerging trend on which colleges are reporting solid success rates is lecture-free classes used by universities like Benedictine University at Mesa, based upon an innovative "next generation learning" approach.
"This approach is being designed to promote skilled communication as well as learning that is deeper, collaborative, self-managed, cross-disciplinary and technology-enhanced," said Mick Carroll, Ph.D., dean of Benedictine University at Mesa. "This is an interesting shift that is shaking the traditional approach to teaching and lecturing."
Lecture-free classes are a response to growing criticism of the traditional, often passive lecture-based college classes which some educators say are a turn-off to students, leading to aggravation and poor grades.
Experts say that traditional lecture-based teaching poorly prepares students for the workplace. Better prepared students are created through hands-on, interactive and team-based learning which produces the type of critical thinking skills that can be more readily transferred from the classroom to a student's career. This shifting paradigm in higher education teaching benefits students by increasing academic engagement, fostering stronger relationships with fellow students and faculty, and improving learning and success. For colleges, it can drive better retention and lead to stronger alumni networks as students become more connected to their alma maters and classmates after graduation. The use of technology is a major component to the success of this next generation learning style, creating what some are calling the "flipped classroom," where lectures and the traditional shape of classroom space is changed to reflect small-group discussions focused on interactive problem-solving.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

The second book by prize-winning Japanese novelist Fuminori Nakamura to be available in English translation, a follow-up to 2012's critically acclaimed The Thief─another fantastically creepy, electric literary thriller that explores the limits of human depravity─and the powerful human instinct to resist evil.
When Fumihiro Kuki is eleven years old, his elderly, enigmatic father calls him into his study for a meeting. "I created you to be a cancer on the world," his father tells him. It is a tradition in their wealthy family: a patriarch, when reaching the end of his life, will beget one last child to dedicate to causing misery in a world that cannot be controlled or saved. From this point on, Fumihiro will be specially educated to learn to create as much destruction and unhappiness in the world around him as a single person can. Between his education in hedonism and his family's resources, Fumihiro's life is one without repercussions. Every door is open to him, for he need obey no laws and may live out any fantasy he might have, no matter how many people are hurt in the process. But as his education progresses, Fumihiro begins to question his father's mandate, and starts to resist.
"Karma runs thicker than blood in Evil and the Mask, the thought-provoking and unpredictable new novel by the Japanese zen-noir master Fuminori Nakamura."─Wall Street Journal
"This literary thriller steeps the reader in humanity's dark nature and the struggle of those who try to resist their own moral corruption."─Library Journal
"Deals with basic questions of good and evil, guilt and remorse. Cryptic detectives, smoky nightclubs, and murky streets in Japanese suburbs add to the noir sensibility. At times bizarre, at times hallucinatory, the story is always provocative."─Publishers Weekly
"Evil and the Mask is a hard-to-put-down novel of ideas and a savage comment on nihilism, both Japanese and global ... Shouldn't be missed."─Booklist (Starred Review)
