GOP: President should spend less time on TV, more in negotiations
UPDATED 7:47 AM CDT Oct 16, 2013On Tuesday, Republicans said they wish President Barack Obama would spend more time working with Congress than talking to local news anchors.
Video TranscriptNew Tonight, Republicans say they wish President Obama would spend more time working with congress than talking to local news anchors...but in reality...democr atic AND republican presidents know just how to use the power of the office when it comes to the media. Presidents in both parties for a long time have reached out to local stations, local anchors, knowing they can go around the networks get the lead story on the 10pm news, you've got better ratings and you're probably promoting the heck out of this story so that's why they do it Long time Iowa republican operative David Oman know's how it works. Which is why he and fellow republicans would rather see less tv time and more negotiation time from the white house. Congressman Steve King insists President Obama is just being too stubborn. The house is going to hold its ground so why do you insist on getting your way on everything. Can't you give up something Senator Charles Grassley is still vexed by the last minute mess in congress. whether I vote for it or not I won't know till I read it in it's entirety. But there is a question about whether it will get through the house or representatives , And as the deadline draws near, one more presidential tv interview is not convincing republicans that the govt shutdown and debt crisis are solved. With all due respect I think most of us would rather see the president spending his precious time talking to members of congress, and working out a deal between the parties and between the branches of government and celebrating a compromise which he'd have every right to do once it gets done And if you'd like to judge for yourself and see what else the President had to say to Kevin Cooney. We've put up the entire interview on our free website KCCI- dot-com. Its right on the home page.

PURPOSE: Standard diagnostic proctologic procedures in the assessment of pelvic floor disorders include clinical evaluation and endoscopy. Particular aspects of combined pelvic floor disorders, especially those involving more than one pelvic compartment, may remain undetected without additional technical diagnostic procedures such as videoproctoscopy, cinedefecography, or colpocystodefecography. The aim of the study was to review the potentials of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging defecography to elucidate the underlying anatomic and pathophysiologic background of pelvic floor disorders in proctologic patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Dynamic magnetic resonance imaging defecography was performed in 20 Patients (13 females) with main diagnoses such as rectal prolapse or intussusception, rectocele, descending perineum, fecal incontinence, outlet obstruction, and dyskinetic puborectalis muscle after clinical evaluation. The investigation was performed on a 1.5 T-magnetic resonance imaging machine in supine position. The rectum was filled with Gd-DTPA enriched ultrasound gel. First a T1/T2 weighted investigation of the pelvis was performed, followed by defecography with evacuation of the rectum. Images were obtained in a sagittal plane in a frequency of 1 image/second (true FISP) at rest and during straining. The obtained magnetic resonance imaging video tapes were analyzed off-line with cinematographic evaluation of bladder base, uterus, and anal canal position in relation to the pubococcygeal line by a blinded radiologist. Investigation time was 20 minutes. RESULTS: In dynamic magnetic resonance imaging defecography of the pelvic floor, 12 patients with descending perineum, 10 rectoceles (10 females), 6 cystoceles (6 females), 4 enteroceles (4 females), 8 intussusceptions (5 females), and a dyskinetic puborectalis muscle in 3 males were detected. In 11 females and 3 males multifocal disorders were found, involving more than one compartment in females, whereas in males complex defects were restricted to the posterior compartment. Magnetic resonance imaging defecography revealed diagnoses consistent with clinical results in 77.3 percent and defects in addition to clinical diagnoses in combined pelvic floor disorders in 34 percent. CONCLUSIONS: In complex pelvic floor disorders, involving more than a single defect, dynamic magnetic resonance imaging represents a convenient diagnostic procedure in females and to a lesser extent in males, in particular in terms of dynamic imaging of pelvic floor organs during defecation. In addition to the clinical assessment, dynamic magnetic resonance imaging had clinical impact in proctologic and interdisciplinary treatment.

One-hundred years ago, an artist might starve while producing
masterpieces. Marketing his art was harder work than creating
it (it still is!!!). Many talented "masters" may have
never been discovered because they could not display their work
to a large number of people. While we should never disregard the masters (and indeed we should study them), we are fortunate that we can "meet" some contemporary artists and "see" their work online. The purpose of "Spotlighted Artist" (and WoW!)is to give you an opportunity to learn from and about a selected contemporary artist and to view their artwork. Spotlighted artists are:

Sweet and Spicy Mixed Nuts
I have been wanting to make a homemade version of spiced nuts for more than a few years now. My mom loves nuts, especially cashews, and for a long time I would stop at a kiosk at the mall and buy the cinnamon-dusted almonds and cashews to put in her stocking. The last year or two, however, I haven't seen that kiosk and they have been missing. I knew that it would be simple to make at home, but never made the time to do some playing around to see what I liked. Well, after a week of nothing but sweets and four holiday meals in the course of two days, I thought it might be a good time to do some experimenting with savory snacks, especially since New Year's is right around the corner. These nuts take about 10 minutes to make and are deliciously addicting.
They are mostly spicy, but have a sweet undertone, which is the perfect balance. I used pecans and walnuts here, but you could easily substitute any combination of your favorite nuts – cashews, brazil nuts, hazelnuts, peanuts… whatever tickles your fancy. A great snack with a nice kick!
I love the idea of putting a bowl of these nuts out for guests to munch on alongside appetizers, or during a cocktail hour. You could also put them in a little clear bag, tie with a ribbon and bring them, along with a bottle of wine, as a hostess guest if you are going to someone else's place for New Year's Eve (or any other party for that matter).

i LOVE this recipe!!! wow!!! i did not have the chipotle powder (will try it next time)…so, i added 2x the cayenne pepper and it was Amazingly delicious!! thank you SO much for sharing this recipe!!! also, i am vegan, so i deleted the butter and used organic coconut oil instead…delicious! yummy!
I was looking for a spicy mixed nut recipe and seen these. They looked so good I had to make them right away. FANTASTIC!! My skill level is around peanut brittle in a microwave but these were so easy to make and tasted awesome. The spice is not hot, but stays with you like it should. I'll making these for a long time to come. Thanks for the recipe.

"3-D Brushstrokes"
Artist James Roper works in such a wide variety of media that it is extremely difficult to choose just one to feature. But the colours and energy of his sculptural installations, such as 3-D Brushstrokes, are hard to beat. Roper made about ten origami flowers a day for three years to create Devotion, and likewise saved the masking tape he used for edges for about two and a half years to create the Masked Ball. Obsessive? Just a bit – lucky for us.

Country star Taylor Swift recently revealed that she has already planned the size of her future brood, claiming that she wishes to have a minimum of four children.
During an interview with Marie Claire for their November issue on which she features on the cover, the 22-year-old - who recently topped Forbes magazine's list of top earning celebrities under the age of 30 - also admitted that she is saving up her hard-earned cash to fund her future offsprings' college fees.
Said the 'You Belong With Me' singer:
''That money will be really good for sending my kids to college some day - or maybe I'll have a few more kids than I thought. I want a bunch of them running around, minimum four.''
The starlett, who is currently in a relationship with 18-year-old Conor Kennedy, the great-nephew of John F. Kennedy, has admitted that despite her future family plans, she is keen to wait a few years before thinking about settling down.
''I want to wait a while, but the idea of pouring everything you are into another person when you become a parent has always been amazing to me.''
Taylor - whose famous exes have included Joe Jonas, Taylor Lautner, John Mayer and Jake Gyllenhaal - also confessed that she is a hopeless romantic despite having her heart broken in the past.
Taylor Swift will release her fourth album, Red, on October 22.

Yes, it is a touristy stretch with nothing more than resorts; but there's nothing wrong with some self-pampering and relaxing. Do however get OUT of this region and explore the amazing rain forest; hike or bike around and find yourself some fresh coconuts to break open and eat.
People in Gros Islet are super friendly and helpful; the only annoyance can be the occasional drunk youngster (tourist) walking around.

Modeling Transportation Systems
To contend with the rapid growth of electronic content in transportation systems, manufacturers must manage complexity, employ more automation in design processes, and achieve faster, more reliable system and component design. Automation and verification of hardware, software, and mechatronic systems must go beyond mere electronic control unit (ECU) design automation and focus on interactions between hardware, software, and the network connecting the platform components and systems.
An additional side effect of increasing complexity is the growing reliance on software to support differentiating product features. Improved automation is also needed in the design of electrical, electronic, and embedded software components, which require a stable and reliable software development environment for modeling, simulation, verification, and testing of software interfaced to actual hardware.
SystemVision is a full-featured mechatronic system design and analysis tool suite. Created as a solution for a wide range of applications requiring coordination across the software, electronic, and mechanical domains, SystemVision is an ideal solution for vehicle design. After all, every automobile, truck, and tractor is actually a system of interacting components, large and small.
The SystemVision modeling environment addresses the functional, architectural, and implementation levels of the vehicle design process, accounting for every aspect of the underlying system design.

UN May Get Global Carbon Tax on Air Travel to Avert "Trade War"
Posted By admin On February 14, 2012 @ 4:18 am In Featured Stories,Money Watch | Comments Disabled
New American [1]
February 14, 2012
The United Nations may be able to seize an opportunity — presented by mass [2]resistance [3]against the "carbon tax" on air travel imposed by the European Union — to extract global taxes from airline passengers, with claims that failure to adopt a worldwide taxation regime under the UN International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) could result in a "trade war."
The EU, which has been among the chief promoters of international taxation, announced that it was open to discussions [4]about substituting its own scheme for a global tax. Global airlines, meanwhile, are fervently pushing the idea of a UN-brokered "solution" to the impasse, saying the disagreements could affect global air travel and lead to counterproductive retaliation by governments.
"Europe deserves credit for pushing this issue up the international agenda and it is at the forefront on emissions trading," claimed [5]International Air Transport Association boss Tony Tyler during a speech at the Singapore Airshow Aviation Leadership Summit. "But its unilateral approach must change."
In an interview with Reuters, the Director General the IATA — a lobbying group that represents over 200 airlines — alleged [6] that the UN's aviation arm was the "only" forum to resolve the controversy. He also said the EU would almost certainly cooperate to avoid further isolation.
"I very much hope that the EU and all its member states will work hard with ICAO to come up with a global solution," he told [6] the news agency, noting that the regional entity was generally supportive of a global tax instead. "It is not going to be easy."

Stephen Roche's 1987 Triple Crown
March 17, 2010 2 Comments
In honor of St. Patrick's Day, and because we've been feeling a throwback vibe lately, we're going to dedicate this post to retired Irish pro cyclist Stephen Roche and his magnificent 1987 season. In this magical year, Roche won the Giro d'Italia, the Tour de France and finally the World Championships to become only the second ever cyclist to complete this remarkable trifecta (sorry, no points for guessing that Eddy Merckx was the only other Triple Crown winner)!
Roche's run started with the Giro d'Italia, where he won 3 stages but had to out ride his own teammate, Roberto Visentini, to win back the maglia rosa and take the title:
Giro 1987: Stephen Roche. Photo: Offside/L'Equipe
Exhausted but elated to be the first Giro winner from outside mainland Europe, Roche was the narrow favorite to win the Tour de France. Roche won the individual time trial (one of his specialties) on stage 10, but later in the race almost committed an epic blunder on a mountainous stage 20, which crossed the famous peaks of the Galibier and the Madeleine before finishing at La Plagne. Roche attacked early and was in a breakaway for hours, but on the final climb he was caught and gapped by his biggest rival, Pedro Delgado. At one point in the climb, Delgado established a 1 minute 30 second lead over Roche, but the tenacious Irishman clawed his way back to only lose 4 seconds on the day. Roche then went on to win the final 35km time trial, making up a 30 second deficit to Delgado, to take the final maillot jaune by 40 seconds and become the first Irish Tour de France champion.

Robin Madeley - 19/04/2001
Hi! this was the first peice of choreography I ever did, a few weeks back, now. I did it because it was driving me nuts that i couldn't find a suitable dance for the track, and realised why when i sat down and listen to it, as it has very differeng sounds in the verses tan in the chorus. I did the verse and bridge; Mum did the chorus, and also watched and said if something didn't look very good, whereupon she thought of something else. between us, we got 'This Way'. Hope you like it :) Robin Madeley

Students, who wants a new HD Kindle Fire 8.9″ and more?…
Attention students! We have gadgets and we are going to give them away. Our Fall Jabfab POINTS contest is upon us, and you may already have seen one of our flyer cards at your college or place of study. So, read on…
Starting this month and through December 14th 2012, we are challenging our student users to score as many Jabfab POINTS as possible, and for good reason – the first five of you to reach a total of 5,000 Jabfab POINTS by Dec. 14th will get to choose your own gadget. Yes, our top five winners will receive either a Google Nexus 7 tablet, or an Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8.9″ or an Apple iPod Touch. You'll also receive a badass limited edition Jabfab T-Shirt of the size of your choice. The next five runners up will all get a T-Shirt and the glory that comes with wearing it – so Jab and Fab anything you want, cuz the top 10 will all get a prize.
Here's how to play, how to earn Jabfab POINTS quickly and our competition rules below:
How it works: Whenever you Jab or Fab something on Jabfab (what's Jabfab?) , you'll earn Jabfab POINTS. You can see them clocking up on your profile dashboard. For a plain old Jab or Fab you earn 5 points. If you share your Jab or Fab on Facebook you can earn another 5 points, and on Twitter ANOTHER 5 points. And if your profile is complete there's a bonus 5 points for a total of 20 Jabfab POINTS for a fully loaded and shared Jab or Fab. Yes it all sounds Czechoslovakian now, but once you start doing it, its as easy as stealing a lollipop from a toddler. Here's a quick info-graphic summary for you:
Oh, and we almost forgot…….if you invite friends to join Jabfab, and they actually join, you get 100 bonus Jabfab points for each one!! Dammit, we shouldn't have mentioned that, should we? ;)
Official Contest Rules: OK, so here's the rules of the contest, how to avoid disqualification and all the legalese stuff we are obligated to point out in order to protect everyone, hence all the bullets below.
- Eligibility – Competition open to any student resident of the US over the age of 18 years old on Sept 6th 2012. Employees of Jabfab, immediate family members, and partners are not eligible. Immediate family shall include spouse, parents, children, siblings, grandparents, grandchildren and any other person residing within the same household.
- No purchase necessary, you only need to be a signed up Jabfab user (it's free) – go here to sign up or sign in – or sign in from your iOS device from the Jabfab Mobile App
- Competition starts at 17:00:01AM Eastern Standard Time ("EST") on Sept 6th, 2012 and ends at 11:59:59 PM EST on December 14th, 2012 – eligible winners will have achieved 5,000 Jabfab points by the end of the competition, then the Jabfab management judges will select a top 10 prize group based upon the order in which the winners have arrived and the manner in which the points were achieved – to ensure that no cheating or cramming of points was used, and fair competition (*) took place. The final top 10 list that will receive prizes will be the management judges decision, from the pool of eligible winners. Winning a prize (gadget and/or T-Shirt) requires you to achieve 5,000 Jabfab POINTS in a fair way *and without cheating using robots or hacking. Contest winners will be notified after the judges decision.
- 5 winners (selected by the Jabfab management judges) will select the gadget they'd like to receive. The choices are a) an Apple iPod Touch 8GB 4th Generation Latest Model, or b) A Google Nexus7 8GB Tablet, or c) An Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8.9″ Wi-Fi 16MB Tablet. The top 5 selected winners will also receive a limited edition Jabfab T-Shirt in your choice of size and black or white color. The 5 runners up, selected will receive a limited edition Jabfab T-Shirt in your choice of size and black or white color.
- (*) You can't just stay up all night and Jab and Fab stuff like crazy that makes no sense at all. The final award of prizes is at Jabfab management's discretion, regardless of whether you are among the first 10 people to get 5,000 points or not. If it looks like you just completed all your points in a single day to beat the system, and didn't put up real topics and genuine opinions, we may have to award your prize to the next person to achieve 5,000 points in a fairer manner. Or if it appears that you used a robot, gadget, macro or any other kind of non-human method to beat the system, we will have to disqualify you. Again – our management judge's decision is final. Tip: If you share your Jabs and Fabs on Twitter or Facebook and keep a complete profile it will take a quarter of the time to get to 5,000 and you won't need any Red Bull to keep you up all hours. You have till Dec. 14th remember!
- Apple iPod Touch Approximate Retail Value (ARV) is $190, Kindle Fire HD 8.9″ ARV is $300, Google Nexus 7 ARV is $200
- Prizes are non-transferable. No substitution or cash equivalent of prize permitted. Federal, state and local taxes, if any, and any other costs or expenses related to acceptance and use of the prize not specified, are the sole responsibility of the winner.
- The winner will be notified by the e-mail address in their Jabfab account.

If not timely returned or prize notification or e-mail is returned as undeliverable, prize may be forfeited and awarded to an alternate winner.

If only someone had invented the photocopier a little earlier. In 1914, composer Ralph Vaughan Williams sent the one and only copy of his Second Symphony to a conductor in Germany. Then the First World War broke out, and the symphony was lost forever. Vaughan Williams and a few friends spent a couple of years arduously putting it all back together from sketches and scraps and memories. We'll hear his reconstructed work, from a concert by conductor Mark Elder and the Halle Orchestra. Plus, we'll hear the King's Singers in a recent performance at our PT studios.

Them and Us
by Andrew Kiraly | posted April 30, 2014
Perhaps lazily, perhaps cynically, I tend to imagine the collective Las Vegas tourist experience as some unremarkable tapioca smoothie of midlist peccadilloes involving a little too much to drink, a little too much to eat, and a little too much gambling, topped with a flimsy halo of overstimulation — calibrated, regulated, test-tube misadventure for a bovine mass sensibility. Yeah, like I said, cynical. Maybe it's from bumper-nosing down the Strip one too many times, despairing upon hearing the warrior-bro warble of "Vegas, baby!," or maybe it's the attitudinal residue of living among the gleaming gears and pistons behind the Sin City fantasia, knowing what an admirably efficient machine it is. How can the fun be real when it's so scripted, calculated, engineered?
Well, of course the fun is real. (That's the TL;DR takeaway, tourists: We can manage your experience, but we can never own your fun!) Also real is the pain, the dismay, the fear, the uncertainty — those elements of the Vegas tourist experience that aren't accounted for in the brochure. That's why I love me a good Vegas tourist story that breaks the buffet-stuffed trope of merely a little too much. And there are some good ones in the Quora thread, "What are some of your best and worst experiences in Las Vegas?" (Note: These quotes are airlifted raw and real straight from Quora, so mentally insert your own [sics].)
There's the cinematic dance club sucker-punch that comes out of nowhere:
(Rumble ensues? Not so fast. It has a surprising denouement.) There's a, well, actually, kinda nerdily cute (!) story about a tourist who methodically loses money at the every hotel-casino on the Strip for Just So I Could Say fodder:
Others have down-and-outer stories that go from dim to dark:
There are others — about improbable strip-club wineries, $100 cab rides for a mere 20 feet, even suicides. I draw your attention to the thread not as huffy counterprogramming to the slick Vegas of glossy mag ads and LCD monoliths beaming sushi, sex and oblivion through pleasure. Rather, it's a reminder that Vegas can promise fun, but the ludic principle bears, always, the seeds of entropy: That fun may also contain life.
Bucket city by Andrew Kiraly | posted March 27, 2014
This sounds like a story premise that might bubble up in a screenwriting class brainstorming session: As one of her final wishes, a dying woman asks her daughter to take her to Las Vegas. Imagining how that might play out, you can envision something like Leaving Las Vegas crossed with Terms of Endearment.
But it's not just a screenplay idea; it really happened: Chicago Park District employee Beverly Ballard took time off from her job to travel with her mother, who was dying of congestive heart failure, on a bucket-list trip to Las Vegas. What happened after that, though, is less fitting for the silver screen than perhaps a human-resources manager training DVD — hardly flashy or dramatic, but this micro-saga nonetheless makes for a striking reminder of all the baggage those two words Las Vegas carry in the world.
Ballard had taken the trip with her mother to Vegas under the auspices of the Family Medical Leave Act, which protects employees' jobs while they take unpaid time off to deal with their medical issues, care for immediate family with medical issues, or care for a newborn. After her trip, the Chicago Park District fired Ballard for too many unauthorized absences; she sued the district and was eventually victorious in appeals court. As told by this human resources policy website — where the case is analyzed as a cautionary tale against knee-jerk firings — the court determined that the destination didn't matter. What mattered was that Ballard was taking care of her mother during the trip.
It's interesting to consider that Vegas factor — to consider whether Ballard's employer would have had the same reaction had she requested leave to take her mother to, say, Santa Fe or San Francisco, Baton Rouge or Austin. Almost surely those two words Las Vegas entered the mind of some park district HR functionary and hatched into a burgeoning, stereotypical tableau of excess and overindulgence and hyperstimulation. (Extra credit: Could the trip itself be considered part of the regimen of care? Could a session at the slots be therapeutically distracting? Could a Cirque fantasia or Celine torcher deliver a dose of the medicinally sublime?) If this is a lesson about the power of brand, it's about how that power can split and arc into a matchless zigzag of unpredictable effects — in this case, an unfortunate firing and a successful lawsuit.
But it isn't a lesson about that. It's really a lesson about the importance of separating the content from the package, about not being blinded by the brand, whether that blinding entails a seduction or a repulsion. Tourists come to Las Vegas to overdo it and then tell exaggerated stories of chuckling regret to friends back home. The Chicago Park District overdid it, too, but it doesn't even have the consolation of a good Vegas story.
One gallon forward, two gallons back by By Heidi Kyser | posted March 19, 2014
The national attention on Las Vegas' water situation, which I noted in January, continues — now with added polarity. On March 5, "Here & Now," the live talk program produced by Boston's NPR news station, presented a show called From Toilet to Tap: City Officials Say Get Used to Drinking Recycled Water. The discussion featured Charles Fishman, author of The Big Thirst: The Secret Life and Turbulent Future of Water and apparent fan of the Southern Nevada Water Authority. Here's one excerpt from Fishman's conversation with program host Robin Young: Las Vegas is one of the most water-smart cities in the country and even one of the most water smart in the world. … They've put in a whole series of things that has really changed the water culture of the Las Vegas metro area. Let's just put the statistic on the table first. Twenty years ago, Las Vegas used 329 gallons of water a day a person. That's more than the typical household in the U.S. uses a day. They are down 20 years later to 219 gallons a day a person. They've saved 110 gallons per person per day. Contrast that with Eric Holthaus's recent article for Slate, "The Thirsty West: What Happens in Vegas Doesn't Stay in Vegas." The deck for that story — "Even Sin City's attempts to conserve water are wasteful" — pretty much says it all. But, in addition, Holthaus specifically calls out Las Vegans' per-capita water usage: The driest city in America still uses more water per capita than just about any other city in the country. … For perspective, that goal of 199 gallons per person per day by 2035 is twice California's current statewide average water consumption. One of the best in the West, San Francisco, uses less than a quarter of the water per person as Vegas—just 49 gallons per person per day. He says that all the attention given to efficiency improvements in Las Vegas is like "a one-ton man patting himself on the back for losing 400 pounds. Great news, but there's still a long way to go." It seems impossible that both Fishman and Holthaus could be right, and yet, from my perspective as a resident of one of the oldest neighborhoods in the heart of the nation's driest city, they are. Look no further than my street for proof. Although we're not required to (our house was built long before the early-2000s restrictions on lawns), my significant other and I let our front-yard grass die off when we moved in and replaced it with xeriscaping, which is watered with drip irrigation. Permaculture gardens fill two-thirds of our backyard, and the small patch of grass we keep for our dogs is Bermuda, which requires little water. To help offset the water we use in the garden, we take such measures as "bucket and chuck it" — hand-collecting and -carrying dishwater to irrigate gardens. We are perfect examples of Fishman's argument. Next door to us lives evidence of Holthaus's view. When a moving van pulled up there a few years ago, the foreclosed-upon home had been empty so long that all the landscaping except the trees was dead. The lush green lawn turned to dust and the bank (we assume) sent yard workers in to tear out the shrubs. The day I introduced myself to our new neighbors, a middle-aged couple, I asked the man what he planned to do with the blank slate. "Grass," he said. "We're from Oregon. We need to be surrounded by green." In the intervening time, I've seen him pour countless gallons of the Colorado River onto that yard — even hand-watering it with a hose almost every day one summer — in a fruitless attempt to grow a lawn. Downtown is filled with examples of this juxtaposition: Eco-conscious conservers who embrace desert living; and old-school wasters who don't want the government telling them they can't have grass. Former SNWA chief Pat Mulroy acknowledged to me in an interview that her own husband belonged to the latter class of individuals. You can charge them all you want for water, she said, and they don't care; they'll pay it. Just don't tell them what to do. In this sense, it's a wonder the Authority has been able to persuade its libertarian-leaning constituency to conserve at all — and admirable it's accomplished as much as it has. Still, as I walk my dogs each morning and spot a sprinkler spraying the sidewalk on every street (often accumulating in streams running down the gutters), I cringe in frustration. When I hear Fishman say, "It's illegal to let water hit a paved surface in Las Vegas, whether you're a business or a homeowner," I want to invite him to my neighborhood and show him the truth.
Oh, so that's how it works by Andrew Kiraly | posted January 28, 2014
You may read this breezy New York Times story on sports betting as, oh, a decently wrought, workmanlike -- almost perfunctory -- entry in the annual glut of pieces about the wild, zany world of sports betting. But -- and here is a confession of what I sometimes feel is an innate, chromosomal, almost spiritual shortcoming of mine -- for someone (a Las Vegas native, no less! I know! The irony: mordant!) whose understanding of sports, let alone sports betting, is positively paleolithic, for some reason this New York Times article arrived as a bracing revelation of sorts in its very sunny, workmanlike, Wikipedia-ish approach. So thaaaaat's how sports books make their money. I'd been hearing sports bettors toss around terms like "vig" for years, but I never had the nerve to ask: And a point spread refers to a range of outcomes on which you could wager. You don't say. I guess "point spread" has a more occult ring than "range of outcomes." Oh, and apparently, sometimes complex things can happen to those point spreads as bets come in, almost in some kind of Heisenberg-principle-kind of meta-shift: Often, the parachute-press treatments of Vegas are either aggressively simplistic or just rife with baldly inaccurate howlers. But in this case, the mainstream media paint-up of a Vegas gambling institution has proved to me to be surprisingly eye-opening. If you're a Las Vegan who has often secretly shrugged amid arcana-laced convos about over/unders, prop bets and point spreads -- and part of me suspects there are quite a few of you (show yourselves, brothers and sisters!) -- this piece might offer a few sturdy guideposts.
What Britney means by Andrew Kiraly | posted January 7, 2014
What?! The manufactured queen of manufactured pop has kicked off a residency in the manufactured fantasia of Las Vegas? Whoa, it's getting all kinds of meta up in here. But before Britney Spears' new gig, "Piece of Me," has even had its proper launch (Jan. 29 at Planet Hollywood), popcult commentators are already huffing brainily about What Britney Means. In one corner, we've got Daniel D'Addario at Salon. He wonders whether the Coming of Britney is less that stereotypical story about Vegas being the go-to site for the slow euthanization of an entertainment career, and more about -- da dum! -- contemporary capitalist child mind-slavery! But over at The Atlantic, Noah Berlatsky rises to Britney's defense -- as both a woman in possession of her own mind and prospects, and as a committed entertainer, a serious professional dedicated to craft and career, in the storied vein of just-keep-going rockers like ... The Rolling Stones? Okay! Why, to think otherwise implies a sexist double standard! Whether she's a pop robotrix stuck on perma-play or just a hard-working, unpretentious entertainer grunting in the trenches against the dying of the light, it's making rich fodder for pop commentators. But perhaps one of the most interesting pieces of commentary shows up in the comments section (!) of The Atlantic piece. A commenter identified as "dtechba" writes: Britney as unwitting champion of Las Vegas as a city where stable and rewarding work contribute to familial harmony? We'll take it!

W: R. Cook (2-2)
L: M. Thornton (0-4)
The 40-year-old Bartolo Colon has been sensational in his 16th big league campaign.
He appears to be just as surprised as the rest of us.Colon caps off a remarkable first half Sunday as the Oakland Athletics conclude a three-game set against the visiting Boston Red Sox in a matchup of division leaders.Colon (12-3, 2.69 ERA) has been especially good over his last 10 starts, going 9-1 with a 1.48 ERA to climb within one win of tying Matt Moore and Max Scherzer for the most in the majors. He received his third All-Star nod, with the previous two coming in 1998 and 2005."I've never had a year like this," Colon, who also won the AL Cy Young Award in 2005, told MLB's official website. "I believe this year is my best year. It was always in my thoughts, but I never imagined having the kind of numbers that I do right now before the All-Star break."Third in the AL in ERA, Colon outpitched fellow All-Star Jeff Locke in Monday's 2-1 win at Pittsburgh. The right-hander allowed one run and seven hits in seven innings."He probably has one of the best personalities I've ever played with," center fielder Coco Crisp said. "He just goes about his day and does the best he can and doesn't let too many things bother him. He's been doing good for us the whole year and is fun to play behind."Colon, Oakland's lone All-Star representative, still has a chance to pitch in Tuesday's Midsummer Classic despite starting Sunday."As an organization, based on his age and where we are with him and how much we lean on him, that we would like him to get the time off," manager Bob Melvin said. "Pitching on Sunday, you look at it and say, 'Is that prudent?' But we'll leave it up to him. It's his decision."Colon went the distance in a rain-shortened 13-0 win at Boston on April 23, striking out seven over seven innings of three-hit ball. He is 1-1 with a 1.90 ERA in four starts against the Red Sox since 2011.Colon has had David Ortiz's number over the years, holding him to six hits in 46 at-bats (.130) in their matchups. Dustin Pedroia (2 for 13) and Jacoby Ellsbury (2 for 9) also have struggled.After taking Friday's opener 4-2, the Red Sox (58-38) saw their four-game winning streak snapped Saturday with a 3-0 defeat. They couldn't come through against A.J. Griffin, who threw eight innings before Grant Balfour recorded his team-record 43rd consecutive save."I just tried to act like number 40 in situations like that," said Griffin, who worked his way out of a pair of two-on, two-out jams. "That's something I've learned a lot just watching Bartolo pitch."Oakland (55-39), which is a major league-best 19-5 at home since May 17, has 55 victories before the All-Star break for the first time since 1975.The Red Sox, meanwhile, give the ball to Brandon Workman (0-0, 13.50) for his first major league start. The right-hander surrendered three runs in two innings of relief in his big league debut Wednesday in an 11-4 win at Seattle.Workman went 3-1 with a 2.80 ERA in six starts with Triple-A Pawtucket before getting called up Tuesday."We know he's going to throw strikes, that's the one thing he's proven over his minor league career," manager John Farrell said of Workman, Boston's minor league pitcher of the year last season. "We're looking forward to seeing him in the starter's role."Copyright by STATS LLC and The Associated Press

I got 2 questions for you ; do you use talc to maintain your latex?
And if so did you think about the risk off filling your lungs with talc-dust ?
I`m not medical skilled, but I think it could be a healt risk.
maybe not at once ,but after many times breathing in talc ,who knows how your lungs would look like.

David Lipman of ESPN.com wrote:...Gerut's OPS mark ranked 61st in baseball, placing him right between Carlos Lee and Rondell White, meaning that at age 25, he played last season as a solid major league regular. Yankees outfielder Hideki Matsui, lauded for his 106 RBI, finished 30 spots lower. Perhaps the general public's affinity for RBI and batting average (Matsui hit .287 to Gerut's .279) and the spotlight of playing in New York got Matsui 10 first-place Rookie of the Year votes to none for Gerut. He may have fallen short in the hardware department, but Jody Gerut clearly had a great season in 2003 should be a very significant presence in the middle of the Cleveland lineup.

Are Brangelina a real-life couple? Who knows? And really, who cares? Haven't we had our fill of much-publicized Hollywood romances lately?
>What is worth caring about is the winning job Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie do in portraying a couple in their entertaining but flawed film Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
By now, most people know the premise: Two not-so-blissfully wed secret assassins are contracted to kill each other. Mayhem and marital strife ensue.
The best moments in the action-packed romantic comedy are when the couple exhibit their considerable chemistry. Whether sitting side-by-side and haltingly discussing their marriage with a shrink, bickering about banalities or setting off sexual sparks, they're always fun to watch -- and not simply because they're gorgeous.
The key to the movie is their banter, not the explosions, car chases and gunplay that clutter things up. We get why they come alive from their marital doldrums when they discover what each really does for a living. Their repressed anger gushes forth in often hilarious ways. Pitt and Jolie have an ease with well-written lines.
But you wish for more clever dialogue and fewer action-flick cliches. It's as if the movie is trying to be all things to all audiences. And that rarely works.
Blending two disparate genres, romantic comedy and action-adventure, is tricky. And director Doug Liman doesn't always do it artfully. Liman has fashioned a high-concept movie that occasionally grows numbing during lengthy action sequences and tedious with scenes of online sleuthing and high-tech gadgetry.
But weaknesses aside, Mr.& Mrs. Smith offers a witty look at matrimony and its day-to-day tribulations. If this glam pair with their sleek, elegant house and high-risk professions find little to talk about over dinner -- save for the peas recently added to a recipe -- what hope is there for us mortals?
This date movie should generate plenty of discussion on the ride home. Jolie and Pitt project more than just body heat. They convey a multi-faceted attraction, toss off clever repartee and dazzle audiences with their seemingly natural connection. And that's worth watching.

OMAX series microscopes for students and children are professional made with high quality optics and metal frames. Most "toy" microscopes or microscope kits sold in the department stores are made from plastic lenses, low end plastic frames which neither deliver good image quality nor last for long. OMAX microscopes for students and kids are the products that deliver the similar optical performance as professional ones but with simplified functions and attachments. They are all made from premium glass lenses, metal mechanic gears and frames which will last for many years.
Two main categories sorted by their applications: biological microscopes and low power 3D microscopes.
The biological microscopes, also called compound microscopes are for those who are interested in biology study. The typical powers are between 40x and 400x, up to 1600x or 2000x with 4-8 levels of magnifications. You will need to buy or make slides to use these microscopes since the microscope has the light on the bottom and the slides will allow the light going through the samples.
The low power 3D microscopes, also called stereo microscopes are for those who are interested in everyday life items, such as rocks, coins, stamps, plants, insects or any small items that are difficult for our eyes to see the details but too much power will make it difficut to focus and most of them will need a reflected light from the top since the samples are not transparent as the specimen on a slide. Compare to biological (compound) microscopes, it's easy to use - you don't need to make slides. Simply place the item you want to watch under the microscope and you can start to see the different world. The typical power of those microscopes are between 5x and 60x, up to 80x or 90x.
