After all, mass is mass, and the 750Li xDrive has plenty of it at nearly 4,900 pounds. But thanks to chassis tuning and help from Driving Dynamics Control, plus the aforementioned DSC and DTC, it feels as poised as a 5 Series and is the best-handling large car we've tested.

The Palace of Auburn Hills
Attendance: 13,068
Auburn Hills, MI (Sports Network) - Zach Randolph finished with 34 points and 17 rebounds to lead Memphis to a 107-99 win over the Detroit Pistons at the Palace.
Rudy Gay scored 26 points for the Grizzlies, who snapped a two-game slide. Gay and Randolph were a powerful frontcourt combination for Memphis, making a 20- of-30 shots and 20-of-26 free throws.
Ben Gordon posted 25 points to lead Detroit, which has dropped seven of its last nine. Rookie center Greg Monroe added 14 points and 11 boards before fouling out, while Rodney Stuckey had 15 points, seven rebounds and six assists.
Detroit used a 13-2 run in the first quarter take a 21-7 lead, but the Grizzlies made a late run to stay in the game. Gay scored two buckets in the final 26.7 seconds to get Memphis within 26-21.
The Pistons held a 46-43 advantage after a back-and-forth second quarter, but Memphis moved in front during a dominant third quarter.
Detroit still had the lead when Charlie Villanueva sank a three a little under five minutes in. But the Grizzlies scored the next 12 points, including six from Randolph, to take a 66-55 advantage.
"We had a real sense of urgency in the second half, got out in transition and got stops," Randolph said. "Then we started playing in transition and everyone started to contribute."
Memphis made 8-of-13 shots from the field and 13-of-16 from the foul line in the quarter, and held a 73-64 lead moving to the fourth.
"Got to keep the same focus for 48 minutes," Monroe said. "I have lapses sometimes during games. [As] a team we have to keep the energy and focus throughout the whole game, especially coming out in the second half."
The Pistons never let Memphis run away with the game down the stretch, but couldn't narrow their deficit to one possession. They had a chance after Tracy McGrady sank back-to-back baskets, drawing Detroit within 93-86 with 2:49 on the clock.
Gay was called for a foul on McGrady's second bucket, but the Pistons guard missed the free throw. Even after Tayshaun Prince grabbed the rebound, he missed two shots to waste the opportunity.
McGrady's bad pass on the Pistons' next possession gave the ball back to Memphis, and Mike Conley cashed in with a bank shot to restore some cushion.
Randolph scored nine points in the final minute to help secure the Grizzlies' victory.

WASHINGTON (AP) The leader of the U.S. House of Representatives said Thursday it will be difficult to pass immigration legislation this year, dimming prospects for one of President Barack Obama's top domestic priorities.
Republican Speaker John Boehner made no mention of the rank-and-file Republicans who were unenthusiastic about a set of broad principles circulated by party leaders last week. The principles included legal status but no special path for citizenship for the estimated 11 million immigrants who live in the country illegally as well as tougher border and interior security.
"Listen, there's widespread doubt about whether this administration can be trusted to enforce our laws," he said at his weekly news conference alluding to Obama. And it's going to be difficult to move any immigration legislation until that changes."
A group of conservative Republicans said Wednesday that Congress should wait until next year to address immigration, arguing that it made no sense to take up an issue that divides the party in an election year. They also argued that the Republicans have a legitimate shot at capturing Senate control from the Democrats and could dictate the terms of any legislation.
"I think it's a mistake for us to have an internal battle in the Republican Party this year about immigration reform," Rep. Raul Labrador, a Republican, told reporters at a gathering of conservatives. "I think when we take back the Senate in 2014, one of the first things we should do next year, after we do certain economic issues, I think we should address the immigration issue."
Labrador's comments were noteworthy as he was one of eight House members working on bipartisan immigration legislation last year. He later abandoned the negotiations.
"This is not an issue that's ready for prime time to move legislatively," said Rep. Joe Barton, who said Republicans should use the principles to begin a dialogue with Hispanics, a voting bloc that went overwhelmingly for Obama in the 2012 presidential election.
It's unclear, however, whether the year leading up to the 2016 presidential election will produce immigration legislation.
The Senate last June passed a bipartisan bill that would tighten border security, provide enforcement measures and offer a path to citizenship for immigrants living here without government authorization.
The measure has stalled in the House where Boehner and other leaders have rejected a comprehensive approach in favor of a bill-by-bill process.
Supporters were optimistic that legislation could move ahead this year when House Republican leaders unveiled their principles last week and Obama indicated that he was willing to consider legalization. Within days, however, Rep. Paul Ryan, a prominent Republican and possible 2016 presidential candidate, said he didn't think legislation could get done, blaming Obama and a lack of trust.
Conservatives have said they distrust Obama will enforce any new law, citing his waivers and suspensions of provisions on the health care law and his pronouncement in his State of the Union address that he would bypass Congress if lawmakers fail to act on specific issues.
"The president's going to have to rebuild the trust that the American people and my colleagues can trust him to enforce the law in the way it's written," Boehner said.
Boehner's pessimistic comments came just two days after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Republican, told reporters that differences between the Senate's comprehensive approach and the House's piecemeal strategy were an "irresolvable conflict."
"I don't see how you get to an outcome this year with the two bodies in such a different place," McConnell told reporters.

Emphasis will be placed on the purchase of equipment which is technically sound for the purposes required, provides a good value for expenditure of funds, is aesthetically pleasing and is functional for your specific purposes.
A Purchase Requisition will be developed by the requesting department or by Learning Resources. An Equipment Authorization form must be attached. If a department requires the purchase of Category III equipment without concurrence by Learning Resources, signature of the appropriate Council member is required. The normal purchasing procedures will then be followed.
- All equipment purchased by Northern Michigan University must be accompanied by a complete set of parts and service manuals unless manuals are already on file at Learning Resources. If there is an additional charge for manuals, that cost is considered part of the equipment cost and must be borne by the ordering department.
- In accordance with University purchasing policy, all requests for the purchase of equipment must be on a Purchase Requisition form. No employee may make any purchase commitment without prior approval from the Purchasing Department.
- All equipment purchased will receive a categorical evaluation which designates service and repair commitments on behalf of the Learning Resources Division. Category III equipment is considered expendable and no parts for service are available. Expenditure of funds for Category III equipment, absent Learning Resources concurrence, requires approval of appropriate President's Council member.
Efforts to accommodate a wide range of use situations, both on campus and off, have resulted in the development of a categorical structure identifying relative quality, life expectancy, cost and level of equipment backup as follows:
Category I – Professional Equipment/Systems
This equipment is of the highest quality, designed specifically for professional performance in one or more distinct capacities, will accommodate continuous duty and multiple users, and is often capable of being moved from service in one area to another. Equipment in this category is generally serviceable at Northern Michigan University and excellent vendor support is available. Life expectancy is usually ten years or more and the relative cost is generally high. Many examples around campus do exist; several are listed below:
Art and Design film editing equipment
Art and Design video equipment
Speech/Broadcast curriculum laboratory
Feature film projection and equipment (JXJ 102)
Category II – Industrial Grade Equipment Systems
This equipment features very good quality providing industrial or semi-professional performance while retaining rugged, multiple user capabilities. General campus-wide use is expected. Transporting equipment is a major factor in setting specifications. This equipment is serviceable internally and has a good parts and vendor support record. Usable life span of the equipment is generally 5-10 years and relative cost is moderate to high.
Category III – Consumer Grade Equipment/Systems
This category of equipment is deemed expendable/disposable in most University applications. It is recommended only for equipment which is assigned to a single location and has a limited number of users. It is not intended for transportation between one area and another, is not capable of continuous duty, and should deliver fair to average quality. This equipment is not usually cost-effective to repair, vendor support may or may not be available, and life expectancy is deemed 1-3 years in industrial situations. Minor repairs or adjustments may be possible, but are not guaranteed. PURCHASE AUTHORIZATION REQUIRES THE SIGNATURE OF APPROPRIATE PRESIDENT'S COUNCIL MEMBER.
Category I equipment is generally highly specific to professional use in a designated area. Learning Resources engineering staff will provide priority maintenance support to ensure continued and uninterrupted use of this equipment, as possible. Components for necessary repairs of sophisticated parts and major components unique to professional equipment are the financial responsibility of the department in custody of said equipment. Broadcast engineering support will be diverted from TV station operation as possible or necessary in order to provide maximum support in cases of equipment failure. Learning Resources engineers will attempt substitution or pursue rental of equipment when unreasonable delays are anticipated.
Category II equipment provides the backbone of University equipment support potential. This equipment provides excellent service in adverse field conditions and adequate backup equipment is generally available when failure occurs. The Learning Resources engineering department will maintain necessary repair and test equipment and trained personnel for repair and maintenance of approved models and will stock repair parts as necessary. Media Services or Audio Visual Services will provide backup equipment to the best of their ability to cover situations in which equipment has failed, under their respective department policies.
Category III equipment is not generally recommended for University purchase, is not capable of rugged service or transport from room to room or building to building, and often fails due to cold or damp weather. Departments requesting Category III equipment are advised that no parts and only minimal services are available. This equipment is considered expendable and no contingency equipment is available to cover failure. Departments which require Category III for certain applications in absence of Learning Resources concurrence may do so by obtaining signature of the Dean or Director and the appropriate Council member.
Learning Resources Division, 227-1300.

Man who embezzled $500K from tax-payer funded charities gets prison
ALBANY (AP) -- The former fiscal officer of two taxpayer-funded Bronx charities has been sentenced to two to six years in prison for embezzling more than $500,000 from them over eight years.
State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, whose office prosecuted the case, says 64-year-old Clement Gardner used the organizations "like his personal piggy bank."
Gardner pleaded guilty in February to grand larceny.
The related nonprofits are the Christian Community Benevolent Association and Christian Community in Action.
The latter group received Medicaid funding to provide home health services to the needy.
Justice Steven Barrett also ordered Gardner to repay $560,000.

Top 10 Direct Energy ETFs
NEW YORK ( ETF Digest) -- Tensions in the Middle East and with Iran specifically have boosted prices for crude oil and associated energy products. Increasing global demand for energy, particularly from emerging market countries including China and India, have also put pressure on prices. In the U.S. energy exploration domestically remains politically controversial with warring factions contributing to a lack of any coherent energy policy. This has been self-destructive since alternative energy sources are not yet commercially viable especially as a substitute for gasoline. All this contributes to higher inflation. Commercial and even retail consumers can hedge their daily energy costs and needs by using direct energy ETPs (Exchange Traded Products).
Another consideration causing prices to rise has been central bank easy monetary policies which began in 2008 causing downward pressure on the U.S. dollar. Since most commodities are priced in dollars this puts upward pressure on prices which can become inflationary for all commodity prices, especially energy.
As a former CTA (Commodity Trading Advisor) and CPO (Commodity Pool Operator) I know the value of having an allocation to direct energy ETPs. Energy and energy related products are consumed by all of us every day. Whether it's heating your home or filling up the family car with fuel we focus on these costs like a laser. The bottom line no matter your views we all will continue to use these products for a long time to come. When energy prices are rising, it's good to have products like these available if only to hedge rising prices for yourselves. These products do more than add diversification opportunities for any portfolio. Uniquely, ETPs in our list offer unleveraged exposure to these products as opposed to having to trade directly with leveraged futures contracts, complex options and more compliance paperwork complications.
In addition to normal market risks four other risk factors should be considered:
· The CFTC's varying considerations regarding commodity position limits as applied to the assets of ETF and ETNs--still in limbo. · The credit quality of ETNs given these are "notes" many guaranteed by Barclay's and/or Deutsche Bank. · Backwardation (back month contracts lower than front month) and Contango (back months higher than front month) can negatively affect contract rollover for investors. · Since most commodities trade in dollars, the value of the dollar can positively or negatively affect price behavior. We feature a technical view of conditions from weekly chart views. Simplistically, we recommend longer-term investors stay on the right side of the 22 period simple weekly moving average. When prices are above the moving average, stay long, and when below remain in cash or short. Some more interested in a fundamental approach may not care so much about technical issues preferring instead to buy when prices are perceived as low and sell for other reasons when high; but, this is not our approach. Subscribers to the ETF Digest receive added signals when markets become extended such as DeMark triggers to exit overbought/oversold conditions. More often than not DeMark signals provide fine-tuning of open positions to capture gains. For traders and investors wishing to hedge, leveraged and inverse issues are available to utilize from ProShares, Direxion Shares and Deutsche Bank.

Everything old is new again.
So, what's the flux Sept?
Dionysian Fullaflattus
Not getting your exact meaning. I think intellectually, I am getting bored. No, I think that is the wrong word. Not sure if you were going here, but it is what's on my mind.
I am beginning to desire to be lost in some of my old experiences again. Not really in a way of re-experiencing them, but wanting to go further, and I have stopped having them so often. I had/have been relying on drinking and sex and occasional smoke, etc to ground me, but it has been over 2 years now. But, to try and juggle experiences like I had with present life would just be incredibly difficult to assimilate again as the grounding would not be as easily attainable.
I am in a rut.
Everything old has yet to pop in as new again to me. Except for the ripples created here on GLP and some other minor places.
I'm use to change, I guess. My entire life has constantly been in flux. Until recently. My insatiable appetite tells me always,
there has got to be more
. I know there is, but this daily life is sucking up all time and energy, and I am left with my vices instead of my furthering.
Septenary Man
Ahhhh, the desire for the spice of good old chaos to put a shine on things.
What specifically is the more you are aiming at?
If you aren't centered you literally lose the center at which all things become apparent.
The problem is we begin yearning for the high spin of the perimeters.
The palace of wisdom and all that.
Ever wonder why many mythologies have gods throwing themselves into dissolution in the swirling abyss?
The center is a hi wire act.

I'd like to plant some tulips in containers next to my door on my front porch, but they don't get a lot of sun there. Worried that tulips won't be a good choice. Would Hyacinths be better? Looking for something white and late blooming so that they will bloom with the rest of the Maureen mayblooming tulips I'm thinking of getting. |

Have you tried small alliums? I have some under a Sweet Bay Magnolia where they have part sun. They are also late blooming |
Here is a link that might be useful: White-blooming onions
Just a thought: as you plan to grow in containers - could you raise them in the sun and just move them into place for the flowering season - then back to the sun to finish off and form their buds for next year? |
- Posted by donnabaskets 7b-8 MS (My Page) on Wed, Sep 9, 09 at 16:48
Spanish bluebells, "Hyacinthoides hispanica" will grow in almost full shade. They are beautiful. They are late bloomers. |

Please excuse the mess. I'm updating and many things are out of place. This website features articles and resources for leaders, educators and interdisciplinary, caffeine-addicted, tech-friendly, learners like me. Enjoy, use, and share!
We live in a complex world. New technologies, ideas and challenges surround us. Working out loud, freely sharing thoughts and ideas is one way to innovate and co-create solutions. This is where I work out loud.
We can learn a lot about leadership from observing migrating geese. They share the lead position, wait for those left behind and constantly honk encouragement to the rest of the flock.
We are all born learners. It's what we do best. As educators our job is to create an environment, a learning friendly space, and then get out of the way. The Universal Design for Learning is a brilliant framework for designing learning experiences.
Technology is the practical application of knowledge, often through the invention and use of tools. A pen is a technology. A computer is a technology. Technology is now evolving faster than we have ever experienced. I think that's very exciting. Don't you?
I am using this theme because it's beautiful and because all the developers of D5 Creation have come from the disadvantaged part or group of the society. All have established themselves after a long and hard struggle in their life. I support the D5 Creation Team, you should too,

Breakfast Topic: I quit!
Filed under: Breakfast Topics, Features
Filed under: Breakfast Topics, Features
I just started playing WoW in September. I only play during weekends anyway, but I can't imagine quitting. I admit being a noob, I can't see what the disappointment is all about. I'm having a h*llava good time!
All I can tell you that as far as a game goes, this is the most amazing, beautiful and creative game I've ever played.
Maybe I'll get bored with it someday, if fact I am sure I will. But, I never bought WoW with the idea I would play it for the rest of my life, either.
There are other things in life besides online games.
I agree whole heartedly with #38.
There will be screams of nerf paladins and shamans once everyone has to fight them.
Also completed right with having to find new tactics against the improved classes. As a priest i've worked out how to do warlocks now and hunters are no problem. Sit back, relax and think it through, duel your guildies and practice.
No class is so powerful that it can't be beaten and if you quit because you think they are then your giving up because you can't adapt.
People should quit or not, whining about it is pointless. Do they think Blizz read the forums and say, "oh crap, another warrior is quitting", to they hell. Either cancel your subscription and move or don't.
lol #41
I'm a hunt and everybody can, and do kill me, and I can kill and do kill everybody. Why ? Because I'm not a pgm, some people are just better than me and I'm better than some other ones. Let's call that skill.
People joining the game are more numerous than the quitting ones.
I also have a warrior (the most nerfed class ever) and won't quit, I enjoy the game, even with him :)

Protecting Civil Liberties in Rhode Island for Over 50 Years
Posted: Jan 23, 2015 |Category: Free Speech Police Practices
The American Civil Liberties Union of Rhode Island expressed alarm today that, without any regulations governing the practice, the Providence Police Department has been videotaping peaceful demonstrations the past two years. Even more disturbingly, the videotaping has often focused on other people, including journalists, who are recording the events, rather than trying to document illegal activity, suggesting that the real purpose of the recordings is to intimidate protesters engaging in First Amendment-protected activity.

The Rhode Island Homeless Advocacy Project and the American Civil Liberties Union of Rhode Island that a Sa bill that would make it a felony to "loiter" on a highway, causing a "distraction" or "delay" of motorists has the potential to curtail the civil liberties not only of lawful protesters but also of individuals experiencing homelessness and living in poverty.
Posted: Jan 20, 2015 |Category: Students' Rights
A number of community and advocacy organizations are calling on the Council of Elementary and Secondary Education to promptly overturn guidance issued by Commissioner of Education Deborah Gist that advises school districts they can use the PARCC exam as a high-stakes test graduation requirement as early as 2017, three years before the 2020 starting date the Council had originally proposed.
Posted: Jan 05, 2015 |Category: Students' Rights
At a work session today, the Rhode Island Board of Education's Council on Elementary and Secondary Education is considering revised Secondary School Regulations that would allow local school districts to adopt high stakes testing as a graduation requirement once the moratorium on such testing ends in 2017, creating a system in which Rhode Island students are held to different standards based solely on where they live. As the regulations had been originally proposed, a high stakes testing moratorium would have uniformly been in place across the state until 2020.

KANPUR: From being a bandit queen in the Chambal ravines to a finalist in a television reality show, Seema Parihar who has come a long way through, is now to play the character of Meera Bai- a woman epitomizing selfless love and devotion in India. The surrendered dacoit queen, Seema will be featuring in a lead role of a Bhakti album on Meera Bai.
From the backwaters of Aurraiya (Etawah district), Seema, now 40, believes, "Music describes the form of love between deity Lord Krishna and his devotee Meera. Her selfless love has made her immortal, and her passion for love made her very special even for Lord Krishna."
At the shooting venue of the album -Purnagiri temple in Unnao district, Seema said that Meera Bai had always inspired her.
The old temple received a large number of villagers who had come to see the former bandit queen perform for the religious album. Dressed as Meera Bai, Seema waved at the curious crowds.
Among her living inspirations, Seema said that she adulated Anna Hazare the most. "He is leading a great fight against corruption," she said.
Seema was an active member of the Lalaram and then Nirbhay Gujjar gangs. She surrendered in June 2000. She is still facing a trial in over a dozen cases registered at different police stations in Etawah, Auraiya and Jalaun.
Despite her criminal past, Seema wished that Indians could live in a corruption-free country as conceived by the Indian leaders at the time of independence. She said that she was ready to take up the cause of corruption with all her might.
Seema has acted in 'Wounded', a film based on her real-life story. The film 'Wounded' also won the Critics Award in Leicester Expo Film Festival ( United Kingdom) in 2005. She gained popularity by becoming one of the final 14 participants of Big Boss (IV) reality tv show.
