text: Founded by the Dominicans, 1891, under the direction of Father M. J. Lagrange, and approved by Leo XIII, 1892. The purpose of its institution was to form a progressive center of Catholic biblical study, which would aid in offsetting current rationalistic-modernistic attacks upon the Holy Bible. The school is particularly interested in oriental languages, and biblical geography and topography. Among its important contributions to biblical science is the discovery of the famous mosaic map of Madaba, a map which has shed considerable light on the history and geography of that part of ancient Palestine which lay between Samaria and the Nile delta. It also publishes the well known "Revue Biblique." The Biblical Institute of Jerusalem still remains an active and progressive school of thoroughly sound scientific biblical research.New Catholic Dictionary

The ruling BJP councillors' pressure on Mayor D. Venkatesh Murthy to postpone presentation of the budget may have paid off. For, the budget that should have been presented on Saturday has been postponed to July 26.
The presentation of the budget by the Mayor without consulting his party colleagues had ruffled feathers with many senior councillors alleging that Mr. Murthy had fallen into the hands of ruling Congress government in the State.
"The draft copy of the budget came only in the evening and it needs to be vetted and discussed," the Mayor said justifying the decision to postpone the budget.
"I will discuss the matter with my party colleagues and the Chief Minister as well before the budget is presented on July 26," he said.
Meanwhile, a senior BJP councillor said that it was natural on their part to demand a discussion on the budget.
"We are the ruling party and we need to know what goes into the budget. We feel that the Congress is trying to dictate terms on us. After presentation of the budget if the state government wants to make any change, it is up to them," the councillor said.

(hat tip to commenters from the last Cosmos thread suggesting this)
two great articles to read about the freakout taking place over Cosmos.
this really is a scary thing for the science denying crowd. i see more and more Obama hating conservatives sticking up for science on conservative blogs. it's a strange phenomenon for me, as i often had to go it largely alone. now, i have allies whose ideology is 180 degrees from mine, but we agree to hate 'teh stupid'. science can do more than just enlighten us and move us forward technologically, it can bring us together in ways that religion can only separate. we may not believe the same things, but we can agree what is complete and total bullshit.
ps - i have a friend who is a recent convert. he's loving his (closeted) atheism. he's a very conservative, liberatarian millionaire. i'm his only outlet to discuss atheism, which is telling.
Future, love your advice to the science deniers.
I second that!
he's too busy watching everyone all the time, answering a few prayers that he finds particularly compelling (not yours), and plotting man's next extinction (we're pissing him off big time with this gay marriage thing).
Yeah, he's doing important stuff like Matt says. what an awesome god. (barf)
The number one reason why creationism gets no time on Cosmos, and deserves none, is that it is not an equal idea. There is simply no evidence whatsoever in any branch of science that points vaguely in the direction of a creator. Not a scratch. In fact, all the evidence points away from one. Creation is simply not a scientific theory. It's not even a wild hypothesis. It's a mythology, and it's completely improper to compare mythology to scientific theories. If it were, we'd have to include literally every creation myth ever invented -- in the interest of "true" equality.
lol, good one Mel! gotta love Oklahoma.
Something wrong, Sooner State? You don't like Cosmos messing with your precious superstitions? Maybe we should get Travis Bickle on their case!

I am with Rodney Cutler and he is going to tell us about the hair look that he created for today's show.
So, this is a really, quite a simple look. We wanted the girls to have a look like if they did it themselves; very young, very fresh. The clothes are so beautiful but we wanted to bring a really youthful look to the hair. The first step, we've prepped the hair with a [unknown] of volumizing spray that's gonna create some fullness to the hair and give it some grip. Then what we're doing is we're finishing it off with the Redken hairspray, that's a very light spray so we wanna be able to brush it up. The idea is that you're sort of creating some texture into the hair. So, when you pull it back it's easy to get that shape and we don't want it to look clean. So what we're doing if you're loosely, back combing the hair just to create some texture into the hair, the idea is that we're gonna get this nice, drying [unknown] finish. We don't want any shine, and it's also gonna create some sort of body and fullness into the hair so that when we pull it back it really sort of sets it up. And it's really quite simple. What we do is we pull this in, and you just slightly brush the hair out with your hands. You wanna get it a little smoother but you don't wanna loose all that texture we've built up with the back combing. And you're pulling it nice and low, securing it with a ponytail. And then all we're gonna do is wrap a very loose messy bun into it and it sets really close to the hair. We use a big tongs; these are great pins because you can anchor the hair. So, you anchor that in, push and then reverse it. And that will create that support. Let's start with these types of pins and then you go to the bobby pins. The bobby pins are the ones that cross because this is really gonna hold the whole hairstyle in place. [unknown]. Runway ready.

It's so easy to make excuses and so hard to follow through! With temps up to 100 this week I think I'm going to have to start working out first thing in the morning before work. No real point to this post, just thought I should declare my intention and admit to my excuses.

Search and Destroy in Lima.
Pedro Barros and his Brazilian protege Vi Kakinho alongside photographer Helge Tscharn set off from the beach in Brazil to the beach in Lima, Peru, for a skatepark opening. Not just any skatepark opening, it was the opening of the Lima Converse Skatepark, one of the biggest in the continent and without a doubt the biggest in Peru. While in Lima they got to skate the park with Rune Glifberg. The rest, as Helge told us, was " just Search and Destroy". Here are the photos for your viewing pleasure accompanied by written context from Helge himself.

U. S. Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis said she did not hesitate a minute when she was asked last year to be a keynote speaker at today's 100th anniversary commemoration of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire.
Solis reminded the thousands of people packed into the blocks near Washington Square that the fire in the overcrowded garment factory claimed the lives of 146 workers. Those are "146 reminders that we can and should do better," she said.
Solis said the young men and women who perished are "all modern examples of the work we still have to do," as she alluded to the numerous fatalities that have occurred recently in the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon rig, in coal mines and among construction workers.
"We are reminded that we must always protect our most vulnerable workers," she said, adding that the U.S. Labor Department was "back in the enforcement business." Her remarks brought loud cheers and applause from the people in the crowd, many of whom carried union banners.
Solis said that her parents had belonged to unions, and hailed the legacy of organized labor. "Unions have helped all workers in America have the opportunity to join the middle class," she said. "Let us pledge to never give up our fight for justice."
Joining in the centennial commemoration were men in hardhats, school children, unionists, the ceremonial unit of the New York City Fire Department and descendants of family members who died in the Triangle fire, as well as those whose ancestors had survived.
Bruce Raynor, president of Workers United, an affiliate of the Service Employees International Union that represents garment and textile workers, pointed to the former Asch Building, now New York University's Brown Building in Greenwich Village, and told the crowd that they were looking at the exact spot where tragedy occurred.
"Those were the windows out of which young women, garment workers… were forced to jump… and were crushed to death on the sidewalk."
The workers in the Triangle shop, which remained non-union following a bitter strike, had fought for such safety features as exit doors that opened outward and adequate fire escapes.
"We come together to remind ourselves that those workers were fighting for their rights to have a union in that workplace, and be treated with dignity," Raynor said.
Another key speaker, New York Senator Charles Schumer described the fire as "a clarion call to action." Out of the tragedy grew major reforms in labor laws, fire safety and building codes.
He wasted no time in tying the Triangle fire to the battle in Wisconsin, where Governor Scott Walker engaged in a fight with public-sector unions to deny them collective-bargaining powers.
"Today, hard gains are under threat across the United States by those who want to drag our country back to 1911…. We saw this kind of power grab in Wisconsin," he said.
Schumer got huge cheers when he said Walker "may have won the battle, but he's going to lose the war. That is because the American people do not want to go back to 1911 when workers had no rights."
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg described the fire as one that "shocked our city and stirred its conscience." But Bloomberg was booed loudly during his remarks and especially when he mentioned immigration reform. Someone yelled out, "Tax the rich!" That catcall was followed by another that said, "It feels like snow, go to Bermuda," a reference to the mayor's absence earlier this year during one of the city's worst snowstorms in years.
Rabbi Michael Feinberg, executive director of the Greater New York Labor-Religion Coalition, opened the commemoration ceremony. A solemn procession of people marched earlier this morning from Union Square, along Broadway, to Washington Square. The marchers came from many walks of life — unionists, performance artists, teachers, family descendants — and from as far away as Salt Lake City and Chicago.
Most striking were 146 handmade shirtwaists or blouses that were attached to bamboo poles and held high in the air, dancing in the wind on a cold but sunny Friday.
As the marchers gathered, one person blew a shofar and others sang Italian peasant songs, tributes to the mostly Jewish and Italian workers, some as young as 14 years of age, whose lives were cut short.

De TrueEcuador , 09-08-2011
WRONG NAME - Your attemp to translate in english a foreign name (LA CHOCOLATERA-which is Spanish) is incorrect. It's an insult (calling it "shitbay"???)for a country culture and shows us the little (or nothing) respect you have for challenging places for surfing.
The TRUE and near translation may be "CHOCOLATE POT or CHOCALATE MAKER" due to the forms that the waves make when hits the rocks of the bay, Salinas people relate it with the form of melt chocolate making. (just in case:chocolate is a food from the cacao seed). Nonetheless LA CHOCOLATERA can be dangerous for surfing due to the rocks under the sea.
De Anonymous , 22-05-2010
Jake, bodyboarder from LA - how's it? had the pleasure of surfing this spot today in 10-12 ft surf, absolutely glassy!
a few pointers:
1. at low tide, you can walk along the shore to the private beach on the navy part of the base. only a 15 minute stroll from the gate.
2. the boats cost $10 now (according to the drivers i talked to). it's $2 to take a taxi to la chocolatera and have the driver go a bit further up the road, right up to where the beach at the navy part of the base is. fyi, the cab will enter the army gate and you will run into a guard where the road transitions to the navy part of the base. tell him you only want to check out the waves for a moment. you can just send the cab back.. they may give you a bit of hassle when you walk out of the gate without a pass though.. unless you use the shore at low tide ;-)
3. the first part of the wave is pretty fast. if you get sectioned off, it's easiest to ride it out for a bit and then paddle over to where the wave fattens up on your way back out.
4. if it gets croweded, line up at the back of the guys with skill, but ahead of the kooks. i got plenty of waves that way. a lot of the guys up front will keep taking off really deep, trying to one-up each other. a lot of time they won't make the first section, and you can jump in.. as always, be carefull and show respect.
enjoy this wave!

What do the Hungarian wire-haired vizsla (below) and the coton de tulear (above) have in common?
At first glance, not a lot.
The fuzzier version of a Vizsla is a mid-sized dog with what's been called a "professorial" appearance, while the tiny coton de tulear is a fluffy French breed that resembles a Q-Tip on steroids
Both breeds, newly recognized by the American Kennel Club, will be competing for the first time when the Westminster Kennel Club holds its 139th annual dog show in New York in February.
"Coton is the French word for cotton and that's what this dog looks like, a little bit of a cotton swab," David Frei, the host and director of communications for the show, explained to NPR.
"It has got a long white coat, smallish dog; looks more like a toy dog than the non-sporting group that it's in — fun little dog," Frei added. "The royal dog of Madagascar, if you will, was exported through the Port of Tulear in Madagascar, ended up in France and other places in Europe before it came to this country and now it's not really a new breed per se, but it's new to us."
Unlike their smooth-coated counterparts, the wirehaired vizsla has an inch-long, rust-colored coat that helps protect it while romping through the brush.
While best known for their hunting abilities, their fuzzy faces — with beards and moustaches and, if you will, Andy Rooney eyebrows — give them a distinguished appearance that belies their playfulness.
The two new additions brings the total number of breeds recognized by the American Kennel Club to 192..

Worst in show: Pair stole from elderly sisters to pay their dog show expenses, police say
To pay for their dog show habit, two Pennsylvania women stole thousands of dollars from the life savings of two elderly sisters, state police say.
Jessica S. Skacel, 30, of Derry, and Ashley M. Giovannagelo, 22, of Greensburg, were charged with criminal conspiracy and theft, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported yesterday.
According to court documents, Skacel was hired as a caretaker for the sisters, now ages 85 and 83, in their home in Derry Township in 2011. Giovannagelo later assisted her in those duties.
Police say they started stealing from the sisters — both from their bank accounts and money the sisters had squirreled away in hiding places around the house — in early 2012.
Police began an investigation after a man who has power of attorney for the sisters noticed their bank accounts, both of which exceeded $100,000, " were basically empty," according to court documents.
"The bank records showed that both victims were making regular, large cash withdrawals from their accounts in amounts such as $5,000, $10,000, $15,000 and even $20,000 at a time," an investigating officer stated.
Police say the money was used to cover travel expenses to dog shows. Skacel's former husband, Kyle Squib, told police she purchased two trailers for more than $5,000 to transport dogs to shows.
Police say Skacel admitted to stealing an estimated $40,000-$50,000 from the sisters.
Skacel is a dog groomer and Giovannagelo shows dogs regularly, according to their Facebook pages.
Skacel and Giovannagelo were fired as caretakers for the sisters in September 2013, shortly after the investigation began, police said.
Both face preliminary hearings Sept. 3 before a district judge.

Playing dirty at the dog show?
Police have filed animal cruelty charges against a Pennsylvania man who allegedly drugged a competitor's Siberian husky at a dog show in Wheaton.
Ralph Ullum, 68 of Claysville, was attending a kennel club show in December at the DuPage County Fairgrounds with his girlfriend, whose Siberian husky, Diana, was entered in the competition.
He's accused of feeding Protonix and possibly Benadryl to a competing husky, named Pixie, NBC in Chicago reported.
Pixie's handler, Jessica Plourde of Newark Valley, N.Y., noticed a crushed pink pill near Pixie's cage on the second day of competition, according to police. Later, witnesses came forward saying they had seen Ullum feeding and petting Pixie while Plourde was away from the cage
A veterinarian induced vomiting in Pixie and found a rubber band, dog food, chicken pieces and an undigested Protonix pill. Protonix is used to treat acid reflux and heartburn. Wheaton police say the pink crushed pill found near Pixie's cage is believed to be Benadryl, an over the counter allergy medicine that can cause drowsiness.
Ullum denied feeding anything to Pixie, but said he did pet her.
His hearing on misdemeanor cruelty to animals charges is scheduled for June.

Hickory snubs a steak from Sardis
Among the traditional perks of winning Westminster's Best in Show are a trip to the top of the Empire State Building, ringing the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange and going to Sardi's in Manhattan for a steak.
You'd think that last one, at least, would appeal to the average dog — and especially to the pampered pooches that strut before the judges every year at the Westminster Dog Show.
But Hickory, the Scottish Deerhound chosen as Best in Show this week, had virtually no interest in the juicy filet, prepared medium rare, sliced into bite-sized chunks and placed in front of her at Sardi's. She took only a taste or two before ignoring it entirely.
As her trainer pointed out, there were lots of lights, and hordes of media, and Hickory's never been real big on steak in the first place.
You could view it as a photo op turned photo flop, but I kind of like the fact that she turned up her scruffy nose at the offering.
In light of all the human control inflicted on dogs during dogs shows, not to mention throughout history, I like seeing, for some reason, a little canine independence and rebelliousness exhibited in that setting. Of course, I don't know what Hickory was thinking when that juicy red meat was set before her, but I like to think it was this:
Two hundred people have gathered, pulled up in their news vans, and started their cameras rolling, and are lined up outside – all to watch me eat a steak? OK, then, I'm not going to do it.
Silly humans.

Best in Show? A Scottish deerhound
A Scottish deerhound named Hickory was awarded best in show last night at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in Madison Square Garden.
It was the breed's first best in show win at Westminster.
Hickory — full name Foxcliffe Hickory Wind – beat out the other finalists: a Pekingese, a Shar-pei, a bearded collie, a black cocker spaniel, a Portuguese water dog and a smooth fox terrier.
"Over the moon," is how owner Cecilia Dove described the win. "This is the first deerhound to ever win at the Garden. She's in an elite group of one. "
Hickory's best in show comes after finishing third in her group last year, which her handler, Angela Lloyd blamed on big-city jitters. "This dog isn't used to cities or venues this size. It is used to chasing squirrels and deer all day on a big farm," she said.
Hickory lives on Dove's farm, outside Warrenton, Va.
"She's got everything," Paolo Dondina, a judge from Monterchi, Italy, said after picking Hickory. "The movement, the presence. It's a dog for the big show."
Hickory, according to Bloomberg.com, is named after a bluegrass song by John Duffey. Hickory succeeds Sadie, a black Scottish terrier who won Westminster last year.
About 2,600 canines from 179 breeds competed in the two-day event.
The Scottish deerhound breed dates to the 16th century, when it was used for pursuing and killing deer, and could be owned by "no one of rank lower than an earl," according to the American Kennel Club website.
Lloyd, Hickory's handler, said the 5-year-old, 85-pound dog loves the spotlight.
"She's constantly making sure she's getting attention," Lloyd said.
Like all Westminster winners, she'll be getting plenty of that in the days ahead, before retiring to Dove's farm in Virginia.
Here's a video of her first round win — she's the third one to strut — over two other Scottish deerhounds.

Skinniest in show: It's Hatch!
Likely the oldest dog to ever appear at Crufts — and probably one of few mutts ever allowed entry – the skeleton of a sea dog named Hatch is on display at the prestigous UK dog show before heading to her forever home.
Hatch — a mongrel, believed to have been about two years old — died in 1545 when her ship, the Mary Rose, sank in the Solent Channel.
After Crufts, she'll return to the south coast for display at the Mary Rose Museum in Portsmouth.
The dog was likely assigned to catch rats aboard the ship, a common practice at the time because cats were believed to bring bad luck.
According to experts, the formation of her skeleton suggests that she spent almost all of her life confined to the ship's smallest and darkest areas.
The Mary Rose, the flagship of Henry VIII, sank in 1545 at the Battle of the Solent. Artifacts including clothing, jewelry, furniture, musical instruments, medical equipment and weapons were discovered when the vessel was raised in 1982.
The bones of Hatch were found on board the ship, near a hatch door that led to the carpenter's cabin, the BBC reported. Staff at the Mary Rose Trust reconstructed her bones, and came up with her name.
John Lippiett, chief executive of the Mary Rose Trust, said: "Expert analysis of Hatch's bones suggests that she spent most of her short life within the close confines of the ship … It is likely that the longest walks she took were along the quayside at Portsmouth, her home town."
The animal's skeleton and will go on display March 26 at the Mary Rose Museum at the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. A new museum to house the Mary Rose Collection is scheduled to open in 2012, and will display the preserved hull of the ship.

The scoop on Sadie
Here's the lowdown on America's new top dog, courtesy of the American Kennel Club.
Breed: Scottish Terrier
AKC Name: CH Roundtown Mercedes of Maryscot. (Sadie's father and his littermates were all named for cars.)
Age: 4 years
Residence: Rialto, California
Biggest Wins: "National Champion" at the 2009 AKC/Eukanuba National Championship; Best in Show at both the 2009 Montgomery County Kennel Club and Philadelphia Kennel Club Dog Shows; won the Terrier Group at the 2009 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Seventy-nine Best in Show wins in 2009.
Favorite Pastime: When she's not at home playing in the backyard or snuggling on the couch with her handler, Gabriel Rangel, Sadie loves being at dog shows. She loves the attention, the roar of the crowd and the treats she gets in the ring, the AKC says. When judges look at her, she looks back and makes it clear that she expects to be admired.
Favorite Treat: Sadie loves hot dogs made from organic chicken.
Exercise regimen: A long walk in deep grass in the morning and afternoon workouts on her treadmill
Beauty Regimen: Daily brushing, with a hair trim early in the week; on the morning of a show, she is bathed and blown dry.
Pedigree: Sadie is descended from the 1967 Westminster Kennel Club Best in Show winner Ch. Bardene Bingo. Bingo's handler, Bob Bartos admires Sadie so much that he lets Sadie use Bingo's show lead.
Fetishes: Sadie has a penchant for footwear. If a closet door is left open, Sadie helps herself to the lining of Rangel's shoes.
Best friend: A Chihuahua named Tad.
Sleeping habits: In bed with her human family.

Only pl;ace I have seen the long ones (harem pants) was on another discussion board, and then only one or two. One of them was selling hers as she did not like wearing them. have not seen harem pants in any stores in my area-Nordies, Macys, or the little expensive shops in my area, When they first appeared a few months ago there were a lot of comments like on here-and I knew not many would ever wear them. There are some who will wear anything that is fashion forward or very "on trend" but I can not see how anything like this will ever be! |

Here's another of his designs. Just not for me . It's a whole lotta "what's going on here ?" I get his tops ~somehow the bottoms all seem off to me. |
I LOL at those pics! U.G.L.Y. IMO I have a couple of pair of sort-of-harem pants altho they do not have that dropped crotch. They are very comfortable and I've had many compliments on the style from women of all ages, even 20-somethings. Mine are a BoHo style that I'll wear for a very long time. The styles above are what I call flash-in-a-pan fashion - here today and gone tomorrow and not mourned! |
- Posted by justgotabme (My Page) on Sat, May 3, 14 at 12:39
Now I can see a GUY liking that last one forboystoo posted. I don't mean they'd like them on girls either. They'd like the extra room for their "boys" to breath if they were to wear them, if you know what I mean. |
Well I guess when you sit cross legged you have a small table for your laptop or picnic lunch. |

The black outfit is the complete "package" ;-) |
- Posted by AnnieDeighnaugh (My Page) on Sun, May 4, 14 at 7:24
Well, I guess with those low rider pants, they kept falling off...they even made suspenders for them! So now they just drop the crotch...same effect, but no suspenders needed. Thing is, when the crotch is so low, you can't walk! How ridiculous is it to make clothes that don't function! Of course, they've been doing that with women's shoes for decades. Get a load of these ballet fetish shoes! |
- Posted by justgotabme (My Page) on Sun, May 4, 14 at 12:18
So that's how those guys keep their pants up? I had no clue, I thought "the walk" was to keep them up. It does make sense that with a crotch that low, even with the suspenders to keep them from falling down, they'd have to walk weird. I've seen shoes like these before. They too are downright ugly! |

"I cannot even tell you how many complimens we received on this birth announcement! It was so wonderful to get that feedback. They are even nicer in person. I would describe them as pretty, elegant and delicate. We did almost identical to the stock photo (grey back drop with white trim and our photo was 'naked' baby with white flower headband that somewhat matched the trim on the cards). Oh- and I ordered at 10 pm on a Wednesday and they were at my door step Friday afternoon! Just wonderful and am so, so pleased with our order and Tiny prints!"
"My cards came out adorable! Remember to order the modified envelopes or you will pay extra shipping! I paid 70cents to mail each one instead of 49 cents"
"I sort of recreated this product to become an announcement to share with my family that I am starting the journey of adoption. It turned out beautifully!"
"My husband and I waited until our daughter was about 3 months old before taking professional photos and sending an announcement. After reviewing multiple options, we decided that this design was perfect to showcase her look. We styled her in a "little black dress" complete with pearls and photographed her against a pink blanket. I loved that the gray background of this card complimented her outfit and the pink made her first and middle name pop. We have received so many compliments on this announcement. And I look forward to saving it in her memory book."
"The card was beautiful and the changes that were suggested by the person doing the layout were just what the card needed."

I just received this...
Verified Purchase
I just received this today in the mail, tested it out, and it's a wonderful
waterbrush. I feel like the reviewer below gave this wonderful brush a bad rep
for using it the wrong way. This isn't a brush pen. The brush is not meant to
hold anything other than water. Sure, you can try to place ink into it, but of
course it won't work as well since it was not made for that purpose.
I use this as a watercolor brush, and it works extremely well. The bristles hold water nicely, and giving the barrel a little squeeze lets out a drop of water onto the bristles to rewet the brush. The brush blends paints together well, and as of yet, I haven't had any staining on the bristles, though I suspect it maybe happen through continuous use. Though this will never replace my traditional watercolor brushes, it's nice to be able to carry this around when I'm traveling or on the go. 4 people found this helpful

I just received this...
Verified Purchase
I just received this lovely pencil case in the mail today! (: Originally, I
wanted to get this same pencil case, but in navy blue, but it was just taking
forever to restock, so I figured, I need a pencil pouch now anyway, so why not
try the khaki green? But this pencil case is just so nice, if the navy blue ever
does come back in stock, I wouldn't mind purchasing a second one as well!
The case itself looks a lot bigger to me than what the photos advertise. It's about the size of a small clutch, and it fits into your hand pretty well. The cloth is very sturdy; I suppose it's going to take a lot to tear or damage it. The main compartment is where I keep the majority of my pens, and it is very large. I have maybe a large handful placed into it and it hasn't reached the top yet! All-in-all, a really nice pencil case. (: 4 people found this helpful

Audrina Patridge just turned 27 and the reality star hit the beaches of Cabo San Lucas earlier this month with her BMX beau Corey Bohan for her 27th birthday celebration. During her vacation in Cabo, she has been spotted in different bikinis as she flaunts her flawless bikini body.
A few weeks ago she was seen enjoying a drink on the beach of the resort where she stays in a skimpy white bikini, and the 27-year-old hit the beach again earlier this week in a skimpy orange bikini, leaving very, very little to the imagination of onlookers.
The reality star definitely has a nice body, who can blame her for showing it off. Enjoy the pictures of Audrina Patridge flaunting her bikini body in an orange skimpy bikini in Cabo San Lucas.
Earlier during her stay in Cabo, she was also spotted on the beach in a white two-piece bikini while having a few drinks, check out those photos below.

A clash over labor rights in Indiana (STOIN1) is taking shape in the state Capitol as House Democrats try to stop a measure that would prohibit union contracts from requiring that workers pay dues, a top priority for Governor Mitch Daniels and fellow Republicans.
When the legislative session opened yesterday in Indianapolis, Democrats remained in caucus, preventing the House from conducting business. The opening-day maneuver recalled last year's session, when the Republican-dominated House shut down for five weeks after Democrats fled the state in opposition to bills restricting union rights. It extends battles over unionism throughout the Midwest to a new arena: private businesses.
While the House is scheduled to convene today, Democratic leader Patrick Bauer said yesterday his members would return if public hearings on the bill are held throughout the state, not just in the Capitol in Indianapolis.
"We refuse to let the most controversial public policy bill of the decade be railroaded through and the public denied fair and adequate input," Bauer said in a statement.
"There is no urgency to schedule this bill for passage so quickly," he said.
The measure, which prohibits contracts at private work sites from requiring workers to contribute to a union, is scheduled for a committee hearing tomorrow.
Midwestern Rage
Some Republican governors and legislatures targeted government-worker unions last year. Wisconsin (STOWI1) Governor Scott Walker provoked weeks of demonstrations in Madison when he pushed curbs on collective-bargaining rights. That sparked recalls of Republican legislators and a continuing effort to oust Walker.
Ohio Governor John Kasich, a Republican, pushed through Wisconsin-like restrictions on public-employee unions and had his effort overturned by voters in a November ballot proposal.
The Indiana bill, which targets unions that have contracts with private businesses, is being advanced in the name of job creation.
"We're missing between a quarter and a third of the opportunities because the business has this as a prerequisite," Daniels said in an interview last month. "That's a big matter to us, a big deal. In this economy, a state like ours needs every edge it can get."
Union Resistance
Although 22 states have enacted the ban, none have in the industrial Midwest, according to the National Right-to-Work Legal Defense Foundation Inc. Oklahoma (STOOK1) was the last state to enact a right-to-work law, in 2001. Democrats say the laws lower paychecks for working families.
The average worker in a right-to-work state is paid $30,167 a year, or about $5,333 less than workers in states that don't have the rule, according to U.S. Labor Department data.
The Indiana State AFL-CIO, a union coalition, is running television and radio ads attacking the bill. Nancy Guyott, president of the state chapter, the bill would have an "overwhelmingly negative impact on workers' wages."
The future of the bill rests on the actions of the Democrats. Republican House Speaker Brian Bosma told the Indianapolis Star that he hopes "common sense will prevail and they'll come back here."

I bought the VIA 1500 and installed mytomtom according to the included directions. It is up to date and I am logged in to my account, however when i try to activate the lifetime maps with the included promo code it wants me to redownload mytomtom and I noticed it doesn't show the VIA series in the supported units. I've tried to download and follow their prompts, but when I put in the code it comes back with an error... stating there is an incompatibilty with the installed application version?
Has anyone else had problems with their VIA series units and activating the lifetime maps. Also has anyone had any sucess doing it just out of curiousity!
I bought mine today. Similar issue. Called tech support and she supposedly input the code for me on her end, however I still cannot get the latest map to install. It downloads (3 times I've tried so far) but then gives me an error message. Frustrating!
Email from CS concerning MyTomTom software failing to install map updates. (As of July 08 )
"Thank you for your replies. Currently we are experiencing an issue with the My TomTom software failing to deliver map updates. We anticipate having this issue resolved with an update to the My TomTom software in the future. We do not have an estimated release date for the update at this time. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We appreciate your patience while we work to improve your navigation experience."
1> In order to activate the promotion code, there must be the updated version of map in the GPS (e.g.. Version 8.70);
2> Currently, the new version of map is not downloaded by 'my tomtom' automatically. If you want to download the new version, you have to contact with the customer service and provide them the scan/fax copy of purchase invoice as well as the promotion code voucher.
3> Unfortunately, even if you download the new version of map with the help of customer service, you are still not able to install it into the GPS. Because the 'my tomtom' will tell you that 'there is something wrong with your GPS, please contact with customer service'. When you phone the customer service, they will tell you that they are working on this issue, and will get back to you ASAP. Problem is that the issue being found was in April 2011. So the problem may not be resolved quicker enough.
To sum up, there is no solution for the issue of promotion code or updating map for VIA series currently.
Well thats great to know! Thanks for the info. Maybe I should have got the Garmin after all, lol!
Will the mytomtom app recognize when a new map is out on the system even if I can't download it to my device. Say in six months from now if they still haven't fixed the update to the VIA series, will mytomtom update and notify me a new map is available (even if I can't install it), or will it just lead me to believe I always have the most up to date and not let me know there are newer maps out?
yes i'm having the same problems i was supposed to get lifetime map updates and havn't updated it since i've had it,,,,
i got a via 1500 and i DL the tomtom program said cant connect to device though this account , so i unplugged the device from computer then hit update map, then it asked me to connect to device,, but still wanting to charge me for updates , they need a fix for this it's a bunch of crap...
Are you using MyTomTom with the device? (get it at tomtom.com/getstarted).
A different email than used for a prior device?
Call CS to activate the lifetime maps:

I have a 7 lb leg of lamb in the freezer. It is rock-hard solid. I plan on cooking it this week for Christmas.
Question -
Is it OK to cook it while partially frozen, or should I take it out of the freezer and move it to the fridge - like tonight - and let it thaw out completely?
I am planning on cooking it on my large BGE using Steven Raichlen's method for leg of lamb Provencal (studding with garlic, rosemary and olives).
Any hints appreciated, this will be my first lamb cook.
Happy Holidays!
I raise sheep and we age the meat in a cooler for 10 days at about 33 degrees. I wouldn't worry about taking it out of the freezer today and letting it thaw in the fridge.
Don't overcook because unlike beef theres no marbling in the meat and it just gets drier as the temp goes up

I have been trying many different chili recipes and really hadn't found one that really pleased me - until now. Very tasty with spunk and not real tomatoee. Thanks for sharing
A very good basic recipe that lends itself to your modifications. I added cayenne. I would recommend making it at least one day before serving, as it takes time for the flavors to blend.
Excellent recipe...I used regular yellow onions instead of red; 1 small can (4 oz?) chopped green chilis in place of jalapenos; added 1 tblsp allspice; hot Hungarian paprika in place of sweet; and Mexican chili beans AND the juice in place of red beans. I also drained off most of the fat before adding the spices, etc...but I left a little for flavor. To stretch further, I served over hot buttered macaroni. My father-in-law loved it!
I read others reviews and made some changes that resulted in a smoky chili with a kick. I used half ground beef and half chorizo sausage taken out of the casing. Instead of jalepenos I used smoked chipotles in adobo sauce to taste. Also, used a bottle dark beer instead of beef broth. Turned out hearty, spicy and perfect for a cold rainy night.
This was GREAT old fashioned chili! I substituted 1lb of pork for the beef just to mix it up a bit. I also added a bit of cayenne for additional heat. I'll definitely make this again and again and again!
I am not sure how this recipe has a high rating for its low flavor. I had to add pretty much everything to produce a well balanced chili flavor. I like a tomato sauce base for chili, which this did not have.
Delicious chili, though I'm afraid I won't be able to replicate what I made. I added a can of beer and some bullion cubes instead of the broth, a pinch of nutmeg and curry powder, a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa, a dried chipotle chile chopped up... This is a good basic recipe that you can doctor up.

During the '70s, '80s, and '90s, hot rods followed very definite trends. This SA Design Rat Rods: Rodding's Imperfect Stepchildren book gives you some insight to the rat rod's history. It seems every hot rod built in the '70s reflected the somewhat garish tastes of that decade, and everyone had a small block Chevy powering it. In the '80s and '90s, many rods were built to seamless perfection in a modern high-tech style, laden with billet, smooth seams, no rough edges, and a huge price tag. You had to know there would be a backlash, and rat rods are the backlash to the extreme. As a response to the high-dollar, billet-based street rod trend, budget-limited, home-based rod builders looked to the past for inspiration and style, and rat rods were the result. These imperfectly fine rods rarely sport paint jobs of any kind, and their owners aren't scared to drive them. They represent a rebellious attitude, but never take anything too seriously, either. Rat rods are high on style but low on budget, and that's why so many love them. The Rat Rods: Rodding's Imperfect Stepchildren is a celebration of this trend, and almost as importantly, the lifestyle that accompanies it. Never has rodding been so cosmetically indifferent, so socially oriented, so affordable, and most importantly, so much fun! Author Scotty Gosson watched the rat rod trend start, grow, and blossom into what it is today.

A shoplifting suspect who was being pursued by South Milwaukee police was arrested in Oak Creek after he drove his car into wet cement in a construction area Oct. 24.
According to the Oak Creek police log:
About 11:45 a.m., South Milwaukee police reported a 45-year-old Oak Creek man was driving west on Drexel Avenue, approaching Howell Avenue, when he drove over the median and began driving west in the eastbound lanes of traffic.

The man also was wanted on a Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office warrant for retail theft. He was turned over to South Milwaukee police.
Police were unable to find the woman.

Useful Haircare Tips for Teens
- August 2014
- Posted By JohnnyG
- 0 Comments
Teens have enough going on to have to deal with unruly hair too. Taking care of your hair can be a chore, but it doesn't have to be. There are actually many different hair care tips for teens, many which can be used through adulthood. Here are some of these tips to help you better take care of your hair and scalp.
Dry scalp is often a problem with teens. It's dry, it's itchy, and makes you want to scratch. Dry scalp often happens because you may wash your hair too much. Washing your hair every day can strip your scalp of essential oils that your scalp needs to maintain healthy hair growth. It might be a good idea to skip a day or two between hair washings, to allow these healthy oils to nourish your hair. If you are already doing this, it may be that you are using the wrong shampoo, one that is drying out your head. You want a shampoo that provides healthy nutrients.
Girls often like to change their hair color as much as they change their clothing style. Whether it's dying, bleaching, or perming their hair, it's important that you're careful. Your hair is sensitive, no matter what kind of hair you have. The more you put your hair through this kind of stress, the more brittle it'll be, the more split ends you'll have, and this damage can become permanent, and even cause your hair to fall out prematurely. In addition, constantly treating and dying your hair removes nutrients essential for healthy hair and scalp, causing all kinds of other problems, especially as you get older. Hair thinning, premature baldness, and even bare patches are a few of them. This isn't to say you can't do it, but make sure you aren't changing your hair color every month. Wait until your original hair has grown completely out before changing it's color.
Both guys and girls may be inclined to blow dry or style their hair with curly or flat irons. This is not a good idea because it can burn your hair, and cause more problems than it's worth. You should let your hair air dry, and for those with long hair, it's a good idea to wrap your hair in a towel and let it dry that way. If you just can't get away from using heat irons or blow dryers, it is recommended that you use these on low settings. If you want to prevent hair breakage, split ends, and pulling your hair out, you should really brush or comb your hair while it's still damp, instead of waiting until it's dry. For hair that tends to be frizzy, especially when dry, try a larger spaced comb or brush, this will help prevent tangles and breakage.
Many teens are concerned about their hair, whether it's about what products are the best for their different kinds of hair, what foods to eat for healthy hair, and many others. It's important to get the best advice you can find, so you develop healthy habits throughout your life. Even if your family has a history of hair problems, you can break this cycle in some ways, keeping your hair healthy and growing for as long as possible. You can find more information here http://www.hairstylenation.com/. This website offers many helpful tips and information about hair care, what kinds of shampoos and conditioners are great for different hair types, how and when to color your hair, and what volumizing products are available are just a few.
Each person is different of course and sometimes you are going to have to experiment to find out what products or tools work best for your hairstyle. You can find an abundance of information about hair care online. WebMD is a good site to start with.

In the event of a campus emergency, a group of Higley High School students is being trained to assist law enforcement with triage, basic treatments and light search and rescue.
About 20 Higley students are participating in the Teen SERT (School Emergency Response Training) pilot program with the Gilbert Fire Department.
Nancy Diab, assistant principal, said they are the first students to sign up for the program in Maricopa County and possibly even the state.
"Just in case something happens within the community or the school, (the students) can assist their peers and we can incorporate it into the school emergency plan," Diab said. "It takes away that helpless feeling."
The students participated in Saturday training for three hours for six weeks, culminating with a mock emergency exercise on Saturday.
Karissa Greene, a 16-yearold junior, said she's learned a lot about fire safety and creating emergency plans for her household. She shares what she learns with her parents when she goes home after each lesson.
The lessons were also made applicable to the school setting.
If an emergency occurred on campus, students from the class would be pulled out of class to help, and would be able to provide assistance without panicking, Greene said.
"Say the ceiling fell and we were OK," she said. "They would have us help people get out, light search and rescue, or if there was a little fire, we know how to put those out."
Greene and her classmates have also learned to be more aware of their surroundings.
"One thing I do now, when I enter a room, I look to see where the exits are," said Tyler Lovell, a 16-year-old junior.
Lovell, who wants to be a volunteer firefighter, said he's learned how to assist people having breathing problems, how to use a fire extinguisher and where to apply pressure if someone is bleeding.
"It's helping you become well-rounded (and) safe if an incident happens," he said.
Jacob Schultz wants to go into the military and thought the course would be helpful in that capacity. The 16-year-old sophomore said he's learned how to crib, or lift heavy things off of people, and perform light search and rescue. In day-to-day life, he's learned what chemicals not to mix, how to take care of a Christmas tree so it doesn't become a fire hazard, and safer routes to ride his bike.
He also understands that he doesn't know everything.
"If you're in danger," he said, "don't go in — call professionals."

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Henry, a Encinitas Chihuahua puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in Encinitas, or seeking a Chihuahua puppy from a breeder in Encinitas.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Encinitas already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Encinitas breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Encinitas paves the way for another one to be saved.

Slate Floor Tiles
All of our slate floor tiles are imported either from China, India, South Africa or Brazil. Riven slate is usually easier to seal than limestone, less vulnerable to domestic acids and generally sympathetic to low maintenance. The calibration process(eliminating the thickness variation inherent in a riven/ split material) with slate tiles is not always precise and therefore some variation in thickness is to be expected This is taken up by a variation in the amount of adhesive bedding. Special offer 30x30 slate tiles have a minimal amount of variation:larger format slate tiles or flagstones tend to have a bit more.
The Brazilian Ardesia Slate tiles are softer and can be sawn for an even calibration and can therefore be used as wall tiles as well as floor tiles.
The slate flagstone tiles are an effective way of achieving an authentic look without the expense of a limestone. The large formats do mean that the tiles are uncalibrated and an allowance should be made for generous quantities of adhesive.
