The wine flights were very good as well as the appetizers |
Unfortunately (for us) the promotional deal had expired so we only had the base value. I thought it was rather expensive for what we got. |

Will Jennings Sheet Music
Looks Like We Made It (ver. 1) Piano Sheet
Looks Like We Made It (ver. 1) by Will Jennings - Piano Sheets and Free Sheet Music
About the Song
Other avaliable versions of this music sheet:
Version 1
Version 2
"Looks Like We Made It" is a song by American singer Barry Manilow, from his 1976 album, This One's For You, composed by Richard Kerr with lyrics by Will Jennings. It was released as a single on 20 April 1977. The song was first released in 1976 on his album This One's For You, and it was released as a single in 1977 where it reached the number one spot on both the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, and the U.S. Adult Contemporary chart. Despite the optimism suggested by the song's title, the narrator is actually ruminating on the fact that he and his ex-lover have finally found happiness and fulfillment -- though not with each other. They have, indeed, "made it," but apart, not together. In The Billboard Book of Number One Adult Contemporary Hits by Wesley Hyatt (p. 208), songwriter Will Jennings commented, "Richard and I have often remarked on the people, millions of them in the world, who misunderstood.

About the Artist
Wilbur "Will" Jennings (born 1944 in Kilgore, Texas) is an American songwriter. He attended school just outside Tyler, TX, in the nearby Chapel Hill Independent School District. He also attended the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. Grammy and Academy Award-winning songwriter Will Jennings began his Hollywood career with 1976s The Commitment, soon after teaming with composer Richard Kerr to author Barry Manilow's 1977 pop chart-topper "Looks Like We Made It"; two years later, Manilow returned to the Top Ten with the duo's "Somewhere in the Night." After earning his first Academy Award nomination for the song "People Alone" from 1980s The Competition, Jennings collaborated with Steve Winwood for several songs on the singer's acclaimed 1981 album Arc of a Diver; they reunited the following year for Talking Back to the Night, which generated the hit "Valerie." In tandem with Jack Nitzsche and Buffy Sainte-Marie, Jennings next scored his first Oscar for "Up Where We Belong," the Joe Cocker/Jennifer Warnes blockbuster from the film An Officer and a Gentlemen; after working with Jimmy Buffett on 1984s Riddles in the Sand and its follow-up Last Mango in.

Grayson Cellars Pinot Noir 2012
Grayson Cellars
- California
- United States
- Napa Valley
2012 has, so far been a positive year for wineries around the world. While it may be a little too early to speak of the wines being made in the northern hemisphere, European and North American wineries have already begun reporting that their harvesting season has been generally very good, and are predicting to continue with the kind of successes they saw in 2011. However, 2012 has been something of a late year for France, due to unpredictable weather throughout the summer, and the grapes were ripening considerably later than they did in 2011 (which was, admittedly, an exceptionally early year). French wineries are claiming, though, that this could well turn out to be advantageous, as the slow ripening will allow the resulting wines to express more flavour and features of the terroir they are grown in. The southern hemisphere has seen ideal climatic conditions in most of the key wine producing countries, and Australia and New Zealand particularly had a superb year, in particular with the Bordeaux varietal grapes that grow there and which love the humidity these countries received plenty of. Also enjoying a fantastic year for weather were wineries across Argentina and Chile, with the Mendoza region claiming that 2012 will be one of their best vintages of the past decade. Similar claims are being made across the Chilean wine regions, where Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon had an especially good year. These two grape varietals also produced characterful wines on the coastal regions of South Africa this year.
Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.
When it comes to New World wine regions, it is widely agreed that many of the finest wines are grown and produced in California. The long stretches of coastline and the valleys and mountainsides which come off them are ideal areas for vine cultivation, and for over a century now, wineries have found a perfect home in the hot, dry state, with many of the wines produced here going on to reach world class status. The state is greatly helped by the brisk oceanic winds which cool the otherwise hot and dry vineyards, which hold mineral rich soils covering vast areas and featuring many established wineries. The state is split into four main regions, the largest by far being the central valley which stretches over three hundred miles in length.
For three hundred years now, the United States has been leading the New World in wine production, both in regards to quantity and quality. Wine is actually produced in all fifty states across the country, with California leading the way by an enormous margin. Indeed, as much as eighty-nine percent of all wines to come out of the United States are produced in California, where the fertile soils and sloping mountain sides, coupled with the long, hot summers provide ideal conditions for producing high quality, European style red, white and rosé wines. With over a million acres of the country under vine, the United States sits comfortably as the fourth largest wine producer in the world, where imported grape varietals from all over the Old World are processed using a successful blend of traditional and contemporary techniques.
In the United States of America, one wine region seems to stand head and shoulders above all others. The Napa Valley of California has long been considered one of the world's premier wine regions, and the wineries which operate in this idyllic landscape now have generations of expertise when it comes to coaxing the very finest flavors and aromas from the imported varietals which thrive there. Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Zinfandel have become the flagship grape varietals of the Napa Valley, however, recent years have seen much expansion and experimentation undertaken by the large and small wineries which call the valley their home. With ideal climatic conditions for viticulture, and wonderfully rich and fertile soils, the Napa Valley continues to grow and impress each year.

Kilchurn Castle, Scotland. ..... Kilchurn Castle is a ruined 15th and 17th century structure on a rocky peninsula at the northeastern end of Loch Awe, in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. Access to the Castle is sometimes restricted by higher-than-usual levels of water in the Loch, at which times the site effectively becomes a temporary island. ..... It was the ancestral home of the Campbells of Glen Orchy, who later became the Earls of Breadalbane also known as the Breadalbane family branch, of the Clan Campbell. The earliest construction on the castle was the towerhouse and Laich Hall (looks onto Loch Awe). Today, its picturesque setting and romantic state of decay make it one of the most photographed structures in Scotland. ..... If you...
As a photographer I like to be on the move, physically and technically, trying out new approaches and discovering new paths. I believe artists should continually challenge themselves and experiment in order to progress creatively and to keep ideas fresh and vital. My primary aim is to capture the essential quality of the experience before me at the very moment the shutter closes. I then allow the subject to dictate the precise levels of tone or colour required for the final image. These decisions are key to my creative process and something I find continually challenging and inspiring. Dave Bowman Photography

How safe is your credit card? Plastic cash that lets you buy almost everything by just swiping the card can also turn out to be your worst nightmare.
A gang of credit card cloners with several cloned debit and credit cards of different banks and a card swipe machine were arrested by the Delhi police in June 2010 after the police received complaints from banks like Standard Chartered, ICICI and Kotak Mahindra Bank .
This is not an isolated incident. With the use of the credit and debit cards on the rise, their misappropriation has become a major worry for one and all. Credit card users in India have been robbed of crores of rupees due to card-cloning over the years.
Intl bank cards frauds have also raised taking advantages of the loopholes in the system. In many cases, Indians have used details from foreign credits cards to swipe away millions.
The offenders often get away as laws are not very stringent in India for such acts of crime. The maximum punishment would be imprisonment for up to three years.
How do credit cards get cloned?
Credit card-cloning, or skimming, is a method, by which someone obtains your credit card details, copies them onto a bogus card and begins using the credit card.
Waiters, shop assistants, courier boys and even MBA graduates have been arrested in the past for stealing vital information, making clone cards and spending cr of rupees.
How is cloning done?
A device with a scanning slot can be easily procured from the shops, or even ordered online. The fraudsters swipe customers' credit cards discreetly through the device that comes with software that can store information from about 3,000 cards.
It just takes a few seconds to swipe the card and transfer the card details into this device. This information can be then be copied on to expired, blank or stolen cards to make a clone of the original card.
Such China-made data readers are priced between Rs 30,000 and Rs 50,000.
What kind of details will the fraudster get?
The magnetic strip gives the credit card number, name on the credit card and the expiry date. However, the name and address of the person is not revealed.
Is there any way to know the card has been misused?
Unless the bank intimates you each time the card is being swiped, there is no other way that you can come to know about it till you get the monthly statement.
Is there a solution?
One solution is to have credit cards with smart chips. Smart chips are microchips embedded in some credit cards that encrypt the information contained in the magnetic strip. If a fraudster tries to scan any information, he will only get encrypted information and will not be able to transfer information from your credit card.
You have to be very careful when you give your card for swiping. You should keep looking at what the person is doing with it. Make sure he gives it back immediately.
If you think the envelope containing the credit card (when it arrives from the credit card provider) is tampered with, do not accept it.
While using your card at a shop, do not let anyone swipe your card twice without giving you a 'transaction cancelled' receipt. Do not sign a blank transaction receipt.
While using the card online, you should be very careful. Ensure they do not save your credit card details. Only use your credit card to shop at reputable sites.
How can you prevent your card from data theft?
Prevention is always better than cure. Here's how you can prevent credit card frauds:
Keep your bank informed of your current contact details. If there is any change in your address, you should immediately inform the bank.
If your card is lost or stolen, or if you have any doubt about its usage, inform the bank immediately.
Do not make the mistake of e-mailing your credit card number ever, to anyone.
Register for a free card protection service such as Verified by Visa and MasterCard SecureCode.
Be careful while withdrawing cash from ATMs and destroy the slips. Some fraudsters fit devices for cloning cards over the existing slot. If there is a slight difference in the card reader slot, do not use the machine.
Secure your card with a PIN number. Change your PIN number at regular intervals. Always destroy the letter with the PIN number.
Keep your receipts to check if they match with the monthly statement.
While throwing away expired card, make sure you cut it through the magnetic strip.
Never reveal your card details or PIN number to anyone who may seem to be calling from your bank, nor should you reply to any mails originating from the bank. A bank employee will never ask you for your password.

Brad Pitt - Brad Pitt's Contribution Helps Gay Rights Victory
Brad Pitt is one step closer to marrying his fiancee Angelina Jolie after same-sex unions were approved in three U.S. states on Tuesday (06Nov12).
The Fight Club star has long been an activist for gay rights and he famously stated he would not marry Jolie until everybody in the U.S. has the equal opportunity to wed.
Pitt recently donated $100,000 (£62,000) to the Human Rights Campaign (Hrc) in support of the organisation's crusade for gay marriages in Maine, Maryland, Minnesota and Washington, and it appears his contribution provided the desired result in Tuesday's elections.
Maine and Maryland became the first states to approve same-sex marriage by popular vote since 1998, while Minnesota voters defeated a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban gay unions in the state.
Results were still pending for Washington as Wenn went to press.
Hrc President Chad Griffin says, "When the history books are written, 2012 will be remembered as the year when LGBT Americans won decisively at the ballot box. The dreams of millions of fair-minded Americans were realised as discrimination crumbled and equality prevailed."

Parise says he may decide Monday
Ryan Suter and Zach Parise chose to take some time to sort through offers from a slew of suitors on the first day of NHL free agency.
Suter's agent, Neil Sheehy, told The Associated Press that his client wouldn't make a decision on Sunday and didn't expect one from him soon.
Parise, meanwhile, said he thinks he'll make a decision by Monday after opting not to sign a deal to stay with New Jersey and becoming a free agent.
''I'm not at liberty to say right now who's in or anything like that,'' Parise told reporters. ''But just because it got to noon, by no means does that say that the Devils aren't one of my top teams.''
Parise's agents, Don Meehan and Wade Arnott, didn't allow teams to have face-to-face meetings with the star forward despite at least one being in the area that was hoping to have an audience with him.
''He has narrowed the list of teams to a small select group,'' Meehan wrote in an email to The AP. ''The Devils are still in consideration.''
While Suter and Parise waited to make a move, P.A. Parenteau was among the many NHL free agents to accept offers in the opening hours of free agency. Parenteau, a 29-year-old forward coming off a 67-point season with the New York Islanders, signed a four-year contract with Colorado just hours after hitting the market.
Detroit coach Mike Babcock traveled to Toronto to be part of the franchise's planned pitch to Parise.
''We're going to get in the mix with him and see what we can do,'' Babcock told The AP in a telephone interview minutes after teams could begin talks with free agents. ''We're going to do everything we can.''
The Red Wings, though, had to cancel their plans to send a contingent to talk with Parise in person.
''I called Don Meehan at 12:01 and heard back from him at about 12:30 and he said based upon the phone calls, it would almost be physically impossible to meet with all the interested teams,'' Detroit general manager Ken Holland said in a telephone interview. ''We were prepared to meet with them, but we can to cancel our plans.''
Holland confirmed he made offers to both Suter and Parise, the best defenseman and forward on the market.
Detroit, though, isn't the only NHL team with a lot of money to spend in free agency.
The Minnesota Wild posted a message on the team's Twitter account, announcing they submitted contract offers to Parise and Suter, within the first hour of free agency.
Carolina Hurricanes general manager Jim Rutherford confirmed he called agents for Parise and Suter to offer deals.
''We're just playing a waiting game,'' Rutherford said.
He's not alone.
Teams will have to wait before simply finding out if they can have a face-to-face meeting with Suter.
Sheehy fielded ''countless phone calls, emails and messages'' from teams hoping to sign his coveted client. Sheey planned to respond to each team to gather more information before presenting options to Suter and deciding whether to meet with interested clubs.
New Jersey attempted to re-sign Parise and Nashville tried to keep Suter before they hit the market, but the Devils and Predators ended up being relegated to competing with other offers. Parise and Suter are both 27, potentially entering the prime of their careers.
''Sutes is in an enviable position that he has got everybody coming after him and the money obviously is going to be whatever he wants it to be,'' Predators general manager David Poile told reporters Sunday. ''I'm hopeful that he is going make his decision based on his team and his teammates and the city of Nashville compared to everything else that is out there.''
Teams seeking a short-term answer in net may make offers to 40-year-old goaltender Martin Brodeur, who, like Parise and Suter, has been with only one NHL team. The three-time Stanley Cup champion and four-time Vezina Trophy winner has played for the Devils since the 1991-92 season.
The Dallas Stars determined another 40-year-old player, forward Ray Whitney, has enough left to give him a $9 million, two-year contract in the opening hours of free agency. He had 24 goals and 77 points last season for Phoenix and has 1,003 career points dating to his NHL debut two decades ago with the San Jose Sharks.
''Ray Whitney was among the most productive players in the league last season and showed he remains extremely capable and dangerous,'' Stars general manager Joe Nieuwendyk said.
Florida agreed to a two-year deal with defenseman Filip Kuba because the Panthers expected to lose free agent Jason Garrison on their blue line. Garrison got a six-year contract from the Vancouver Canucks later in the day.
The Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings kept forward Dustin Penner with a one-year contract. Tampa Bay agreed to a $7.5 million, two-year deal with defenseman Sami Salo.
Shane Doan, Alexander Semin, Matt Carle, Olli Jokinen, Jaromir Jagr and Jiri Hudler were among the players who began the day on the market in the top-heavy free agent class of 2012.

Posted: November 14, 2012
It was Saturday afternoon on 10 Nov. 2012 the Marine Corps Birthday. Once a Marine always a Marine. I had joined the Marines at age 17. It was very windy that day, about 20-25mph. I had to aim a little right of the pin because of the wind. If you live in the Wichita Falls area of Texas then you better learn to play the wind. I watched the ball being pushed by the wind as it was coming down. It seemed like minutes but it finally hit the green about two feet short and a little right of the pin. It started to roll toward the pin. I knew when it hit it was going in. I started yelling "get in the hole", "get in the hole". Finally the ball disappeared. What a feeling. It was great. I couldn't believe it. How lucky could I be? I'd rather be lucky than good any day. Luckily I had three witnesses to fend off the non believers. It couldn't have come on a better day. What a birthday present. Semper Fi, KJ Prefontaine

US 5367129 A Abstract A scale for measuring total weight/top weight of a bowling ball includes the utilization of a pair of electronic load cells supporting a moment transfer plate with the load cells being connected to a meter. In one form of the invention, the ball is centered over the load cells with its heavy spot in predetermined alignment so as to affect one load cell differently than the other. The ball is weighed simultaneously by both load cells, the total weight is determined by adding the outputs and the difference in output is used by the meter to calculate the top weight which is displayed. In another form of the invention, both a top weight and a total weight load cell are provided and the meter calculates the top weight directly from the top weight load scale.
Claims(15) 1. A scale for measuring total weight and top weight of a bowling ball, comprising:
a) a moment transfer plate for receiving the bowling ball; b) at least two electronic load cells, coupled to said moment transfer plate by flexure means for flexibly suspending said moment transfer plate; c) a meter, connected to said load cells for calculating said top weight and total weight and displaying at least one of said total weight and said top weight when the ball is placed on said moment transfer plate; and d) a locating ring attached to said moment transfer plate and centered with respect to said flexure means for reception of the bowling ball. 2. The scale of claim 1 wherein said locating ring is adjustable relatively of said moment transfer plate.
3. The scale of claim 1 wherein indicia are provided on said moment transfer platter.
4. The scale of claim 1 further characterized by the presence of first and second sub-platters each separately in engagement with one of said load cells.
5. The scale of claim 4 wherein said moment transfer platter is suspended on said first and second sub-platters.
6. The scale of claim 5 wherein said moment transfer platter is attached to said sub-platters by vertical flexures.
7. The scale of claim 6 wherein said moment transfer platter is attached to said sub-platters by cross flexures.
8. The scale of claim 1 further characterized by the presence of means for leveling the scale.
9. The scale of claim 1 wherein one of said load cells comprises a transducer, cross-flexure and transducer block assembly.
10. The scale of claim 1 wherein a base is provided; and at least one of said load cells is mounted on said base.
11. The scale of claim 1 wherein said moment transfer plate is connected to a vertical leg which, in turn, is connected to a horizontal leg; and said horizontal leg is secured to one of said load cells.
12. The scale of claim 11 wherein calibration means are carried by said horizontal leg.
13. The scale of claim 4 wherein calibration means are carried on each of said sub-platters.
14. A method of determining top weight and total weight of a bowling ball, comprising the steps of:
a) supporting the ball on a locating ring centered over a pair of load cells; b) locating a heavy spot of the ball in a predetermined position relative to two single point load cells so as to have a greater effect on one of the cells than another of the cells; c) transmitting outputs of the load cells to an electronic meter; d) adding, by means of the meter, the outputs of the load cells to determine said total weight of the ball; and e) calculating the top weight by subtracting the differing outputs of each of the load cells from one another and displaying a resulting difference in ounces of top weight. 15. A method of determining top weight and total weight of a bowling ball, comprising the steps of:
a) supporting the ball on a locating ting connected to a top weight load cell and a total weight load cell; b) locating a heavy spot of the ball in a predetermined position relative to one of the load cells; c) transmitting the outputs of the load cells to an electronic meter; and d) displaying an output of said meter in ounces of top weight and pounds of total weight. Description This invention relates in general to scales and relates in particular to electronic scales for weighing bowling balls and determining the total weight and top weight thereof. In the sport of bowling, the weight, drilling pattern and many other factors are important in obtaining an effective bowling ball. Therefore, bowling balls are manufactured without any finger or thumb holes in them and later drilled to the individual bowler's specifications at a dealer's shop or a pro shop. In the manufacture of the bowling balls, a so-called "heavy spot" is cast into the ball and that heavy spot becomes important when drilling finger holes in the ball at the pro shop. The location and depth of the holes is determined by the location and "top weight" of this heavy spot. The top weight which the ball has is determined by the mass of the heavy spot and where that mass is located relative to the center of the ball. This weight is also called the "moment" weight and is a function of both weight and distance being defined as an ounce of weight at an imaginary circle within the ball. During manufacture, the manufacturer locates the heavy spot and marks the ball. He then reports the initial top weight of the ball to the bowling ball seller or pro shop and that weight is expressed in "ounces of top weight." By custom, one ounce of this top weight is equal to 3.294 ounce-inches of torque. During drilling of the bail, it is essential that the operator monitor the changes in total and top weight for the customer so as to insure that the ball will perform as desired when thrown by the individual bowler. While there are mechanical top weight scales now in use for determining the total weight and top weight of the ball, they are not particularly accurate and are cumbersome to use. They generally are beam-type scales which require the user to align the heavy spot, weigh the ball and then rotate it 180� and reweigh it. Subtracting the two results then gives the top weight. This is obviously a slow process. There are also scales used in ball production settings which do employ flexures and load cells, but, in those arrangements, separate scales are required for top and total weight and the operator is required to handle the ball twice. It is, therefore, felt desirable to produce single electronic total weight/top weight scales which can be produced at low cost so as to be affordable to the pro shops and rugged and reliable enough for continuous use in the field. It is also desirable that such a scale be easy to use and that it minimizes handling by the operator. Therefore, it is a principal object of this invention to provide a low cost, rugged and easy to use electronic total weight/top weight scale capable of ascertaining both values quickly and accurately. In furtherance of that object, it has been found that utilization of single point load cells associated with an adjustable locating ring for receiving the ball will permit both the total weight and the top weight to be accurately reported on an electronic weight meter using the output from the load cells. It has also been found, in a modified version of the invention, that the principal object of the invention can be achieved by utilization of a single load cell and a transducer flexure assembly to, again, ascertain top weight and total weight in a single operation. Accordingly, production of an improved electronic bowling ball total weight/top weight scale becomes the principal object of this invention with other objects thereof becoming apparent from a reading of the following brief specification considered and interpreted in view of the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a top plan view of an improved total weight/top weight scale. FIG. 2 is a side elevational view of the scale of FIG. 1 taken along the line 2--2 of FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is an end elevational view taken along the line 3--3 of FIG. 2. FIG. 4 is a perspective view of an exemplary load cell for use in the invention. FIG. 5 is a top plan view of a modified form of the invention. FIG. 6 is a side elevational view taken along the line 6--6 of FIG. 5. FIG. 7 is an end elevational view taken along the line 7--7 of FIG. 6. Referring first to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 of the drawings, it will be seen that the improved total weight/top weight scale, generally indicated by the numeral 10, includes a base plate 11, a first load cell 20, a second load cell 21, and a moment transfer platter 30 carrying a locating ring 31. Still referring to FIG. 1 of the drawings, it will be noted that the base plate 11 is a generally flat plate of metal, or some similar material, and has leveling feet 12,12 which can be utilized to precisely level the base plate and, thus, the remaining components of the scale. To that end, a bubble level 32 is mounted on the locating ring 31. First and second sub-platters 33,34 are mounted on top of first and second load cells 20 and 21 and secured to moment transfer platter 30 by flexures. Thus, the moment transfer platter 30 is suspended on sub-platters 33 and 34 by vertical suspension flexures 40,40 and cross flexures 41,41 by suitable means. While cross flexures 41,41 are illustrated and will provide further stability if desired, it is believed that their use is optional. Moment transfer platter 30 also receives, as previously noted, a locating ring 31. This ring is secured by locking screws 35,36 and includes centering screws 37,38 which enable the ring 31 to be centered relative to moment transfer plate 30 and the load cells 20 and 21 and locked into position so as to insure proper positioning of ball B. Finally, it will be noted that sub-platters 33 and 34 contain calibration weight locating depressions 33a,34a and that moment transfer platter 30 carries indicia 39 for aligning the heavy spot of the ball during operation. In operation of the form of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 3, following leveling by use of feet 12,12 and bubble level 32, centering of locating ring 31 by screws 37,38 and calibration of load cells 20 and 21, the bowling ball will be placed on the locating ring 31 and the heavy spot will be aligned with indicia 39 so that the effect of the mass is at the extremes. The effect of the ball on the ring 31 and, thus, on the moment transfer platter 30 must be transferred by some means to the load cells 20,21. That is, each end of the moment transfer platter 30 must push on one of the load cells, but cannot be bolted directly thereto. Otherwise, the load cells 20,21 would behave as a single unit and would not be able to differentiate top weight. The force is transferred in many weighing devices by use of knife edges in V-shaped blocks or by use of spring steel flexures. While knife edges work well, they are subject to wear and breakage in use and, therefore, stainless steel flexures such as 40,40 have been employed and are preferred. For accurate results, the ball must rest exactly centered between the flexures and, to that end, the flexures are mounted to precisely machined surfaces at the ends of the moment transfer platter 30. Likewise, the locating ring 31 is intended to be centered as previously mentioned. The suspension flexures 40,40 are used to transmit the effects of the mass of the bowling ball B to the load cells 20 and 21. These are flexible to allow weight distribution on the moment transfer platter 30 to effect the load cells 20 and 21 individually. It will also be noted that the suspension flexures 40,40 are arranged between the moment transfer platter 30 and the sub-platters 33 and 34. Weight on the moment transfer platter 30 will pull down on the suspension flexures 40,40 and the flexures will then pull down on the sub-platters 33 and 34, following which the sub-platters push down on the load cells 20,21. The sub-platters 33 and 34 perform two major functions. First, they are used to transfer the effects of the ball weight to the load cells 20 and 21. They are also utilized for locating test weights for calibration purposes. The calibration function can be performed, for example, by placing five-pound weights in the weight locating depressions 33a,34a of sub-platters 33 and 34 and the readings on the meter 50 can be added for total weight. Converting to ounces and using the previously mentioned conversion factor, the top weight can be determined. It will also be noted that since the moment transfer platter 30 is suspended from flexures, there is some potential for lateral vibrations. Therefore, cross flexures 41,41 can be used to stop this vibration and can be mounted between the moment transfer platter 30 and the sub-platters 33 and 34 in 90� relationship to the suspension flexures 40,40. However, cross flexures of this type may reduce accuracy somewhat and can be eliminated if desired. Once the ball has been placed on locating ring 31 with the heavy spot located in alignment with indicia 39 so as to have a greater effect on one load cell than the other, the load cell outputs will be transmitted to meter 50. This meter will then add the output of the two meters to determine total weight. Inasmuch as the output of one load cell will be greater than the other due to the alignment of the heavy spot on the ball, the top weight can be calculated electronically by the meter 50, converted to ounces of top weight and displayed. The meter may be a microprocessor unit suitably programmed to perform these functions. Alternatively, a simpler, less expensive analog meter can be employed. A single point load cell which may be employed in the invention is a Model AWS Brick 200 load cell, such as shown in FIG. 4, available from Advance Weight Systems, Inc. of Grafton, Ohio. This load cell is a dependable and highly accurate load cell adapted for industrial processes and is machined from a single block of aircraft aluminum alloy and includes sensing elements and four conductor-shielded cables potted in a caustic-resistant material. This load cell presents a large footprint and a four-hole bolt pattern, providing a reliable and secure mounting. While the Advance Weight Systems load cell just described is believed admirably adapted for use in the scale of the present invention, it will be understood that the invention is not intended to be so limited and that any single point load cells possessing comparable operational characteristics could also be used. Turning next to FIGS. 5 through 7 of the drawings for a description of a modified form of the invention, it will be noted that the base plate 111 also includes leveling feet 112,112 and a total weight load cell 120. The moment transfer platter 130 receives a locating ring 131 into which the ball B is inserted. The locating ring 131 is mounted on the moment transfer platter 130 by locking screws 135 and 136 and centering screws 137,138 for centering purposes as previously described in connection with the form of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 3 of the drawings. The moment transfer platter 130 is connected to first legs 130a, 130a which are, in turn, connected to second legs 130b, 130b which are mounted, as can be seen in FIG. 5 of the drawings, on top of cross flex blocks 140,140. These blocks are mounted above total weight load cell 120 and receive a cross flexure 141 for purposes which will be described. Also mounted above the total weight load cell 120 is a top weight transducer 142 carried by suspension flexure 143 which is, in turn, mounted on a transducer block 144 with this assembly effectively comprising a second or top weight load cell. Adjustable overload stops 160,160 are also provided to prevent damage to the load cell and transducer. A calibration plate 170 and calibration pins 171,171a are also provided at the ends of legs 130b, 130b. In this form of the invention, calibration can be accomplished by using a precision test weight suspended from pins 171,171a. In use or operation of the form of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 5 through 7 of the drawings, it will be appreciated that the top weight load cell, which is comprised of transducer 142, transducer blocks 144,144, suspension flexures 143,143, cross-flex blocks 140 and cross-flexure 141 is employed to calculate the top weight and the total weight load cell 120 is utilized to calculate the total weight. The ball B will be set on the previously centered locating ring 131 and the ball will be turned to position the heavy spot marker affixed by the manufacturer to a specific direction in alignment with indicia 139. The meter 150 will then use the output from the top weight load cell, which rests on the total weight load cell, ignoring the mass of the top weight load cell structure, to calculate the top weight. The output of the total weight load cell from the weight of the ball will also be received by the meter and the display will show ounces of top weight and pounds of total weight. While a full and complete description of the invention has been set forth in accordance with the dictates of the Patent Statutes, it should be understood that modifications can be resorted to without departing from the spirit hereof or the scope of the appended claims.

Taiwan is riven by discord over whether closer trade ties with China will revive its growth and lift it out of economic isolation—or leave it dangerously dependent on Beijing. Read More »
The drubbing Taiwan's ruling party took in local elections looks set to complicate the island's economically robust but politically fraught relations with China in the coming years. Read More »
Taiwan's ruling Nationalist Party is poised to lose ground in local elections Saturday. But if China feels antsy about the prospect, they have kept it well under wraps.
Taiwanese voters have begun to go to polls, selecting candidates for mayors, village chiefs and other local positions. Pollsters have given longer odds on the ruling party, also known as the Kuomintang, the KMT, the architect of closer cross-strait ties in recent years, as voters grew disgruntled over economic uncertainties and a perceived rise in mainland influence over Taiwanese affairs. Read More »
Student demonstrators have ended their siege of Taiwan's legislature, allowing a peaceful return to lawmaking and ending a challenge to President Ma Ying-jeou and his plans for a trade pact with China.
But the three-week standoff over the ruling Nationalist Party's plans for a services trade accord – and, more broadly, relations with China — has altered the political landscape, sending a not particularly welcome message to the island's two main political parties, and to Beijing as well. Read More »
Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense is suffering heavy casualties with nary a missile fired from across the strait.
Taiwan has been forced to name its second new defense minister in a week following the resignation of newly installed ministry head Andrew Yang on Tuesday after only six days in the office. The latest in a throng of disgraced ex-officials that have left President Ma Ying-jeou's team in recent years, Mr. Yang stepped down after admitting to plagiarism and is being replaced by Chief of the General Staff Yen Ming.
At an unscheduled press conference Tuesday night, the 58-year old Mr. Yang, a scholar-turned-military-man, admitted that a paper he published in 2007 contained plagiarized passages. "This article was ghost written by a friend, who was also a colleague…Part of the paper was indeed plagiarized from a Chinese publication which was written by a foreign scholar," he said. Read More »
It is not easy being Taiwan.
The self-ruled island of 23 million often gets overlooked despite being home to the world's biggest producers of computers , golf products and high-tech textiles. And when it does garner attention, it's usually because the legislature had another one of its famous fiery brawls, like the one that occurred last week.
Last Tuesday, lawmakers from the Kuomintang, or Nationalist Party, and the opposition Democratic Progressive Party competed for the speaker's podium in a fervent debate over Taiwan's newly signed service industry pact with China. The contest eventually turned violent, with insults and coffee flying through the air – and at least one biting incident.
While such scuffles may be detrimental to Taiwan's public image, last week's fight shines a light on controversy surrounding the new agreement. Read More »
Taiwan's opposition Democratic Progressive Party is no novice at holding massive anti-government protests, as demonstrated by Sunday's "Rally of Fury." But will there still be enough fire to fuel the party back to power when the island's next presidential elections roll around in 2016?
Snow White fell into a deep slumber after eating a poisonous apple. Now some in Taiwan are wondering whether or not the same fate might be in store for the island's news industry after word arrived Tuesday night that Apple Daily — one of Taiwan's most flamboyant newspapers — has been put up for sale.
According to a statement released by Hong Kong-based Next Media at the Hong Kong stock exchange on Tuesday, the company is in talks with a third party to sell its entire Taiwan print unit, including the flagship Apple Daily newspaper and Next Weekly magazine. Read More »
Ever since he was found guilty of corruption in September 2009, former Taiwanese president Chen Shui-bian has fought – and failed — to shorten his 17-and- half-year prison term on medical grounds. Now, he says, the battle could end with him dying behind bars.
Despite Mr. Chen's numerous attempts to convince authorities to let him out early — from staging hunger strikes, to complaints of stomach, prostrate and heart problems, even a recent diagnosis of a near mental break down — it appears the government is unlikely to budge anytime soon. Read More »
Less than two months into his second term, Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou has already lost two top advisors – and watched his approval ratings plummet to a new low in the process.
The latest casualty—Cabinet Secretary-General Lin Yi-shih—was hauled away in handcuffs last week following allegations he was involved in a NT$63 million (US$2.1 million) bribery scandal. Mr. Lin, whose mother has been accused of burning some U.S. dollar bills and flushing others down the toilet to hide them from prosecutors, has thoroughly doused Mr. Ma's hopes of maintaining his squeaky clean legacy and possibly poured cold water on the Kuomintang (or Nationalist) Party's chance at a third term, analysts say.

New rules on labor negotiations in southern China offer a potential solution to the country's growing problem with labor unrest while at the same time illustrating the difficulty the Communist Party faces in effectively addressing workers' grievances.
As Chinese society has grown more complex, the Communist Party's estimation of the annual Spring Festival TV gala as a means of communicating with the masses has increased.
President Xi Jinping's recent rhetoric on ruling the country according to law has cast a new shadow over legal reform in China.
A clampdown on "Western ideas" in Chinese classrooms isn't just about controlling society. It has another dimension, involving Xi's relationship with the conservative left in the Communist party.
For much of the last half-century, changing China through economic reform seemed to make far better sense than transforming the country through political revolution. Xi Jinping is trying to flip that on its head.

Of the junglers I have played the easiest to jungle with is nunu is by far. strong sustain good clear time gets tanky out of nowhere. great mobility and can escape and catch and keep up with anyone no problem. Chogath was fairly easy as well. get a good leash at blue and you'll be cookies through your first clear. If you can land your Q which isn't that hard it's pretty much an instakill or burned flash later on. You get to be a pretty disruptive tank monster with a little ap behind you can usually instagib the carry or force them out.
A Big Damn Hero
Sona is an awesome jungler. I think she's really underappreciated. in all seriousness, use Dr. Mundo because Mundo can go where ever he pleases.

California: No Exodus in Sight
California: No Exodus in Sight
Posted 2001-06-04
David Freeman, California Gov. Gray Davis' chief energy adviser, has a message for the state's big technology companies: Quit whining.
David Freeman, California Gov. Gray Davis chief energy adviser, has a message for the states big technology companies: Quit whining. California may be facing a summer marred by blackouts, and electric rates for large industrial customers have jumped by nearly 50 percent, but, Freeman said, "Our economy is still doing fine." And despite claims by technology industry representatives that higher electric prices could "cripple" many companies or force them to leave the state, "theres no evidence that companies are leaving," he said. "There isnt a chorus of people wanting to move to Iowa."
Although Freemans comments are provocative, they arent nearly as combative as those being made by his boss, Davis, a Democrat who has engaged in a protracted war of words with President George W. Bush. Davis and Bush met briefly in Los Angeles last week without reaching agreement on how to resolve the states energy crunch. Davis and Freeman favor imposing mandatory price caps on power generators; Bush does not.
Freemans belief in the states economy contrasts with statements made by Carl Guardino, CEO of the Silicon Valley Manufacturing Group, after the California Public Utilities Commission raised rates for large industrial users by an average of 49 percent. Guardino told reporters that the agency "has basically strangled the goose that laid the golden egg." The bird may be squawking, but it doesnt appear to be migrating. Interviews with a half dozen economic development leaders in Western states, as well as officials in San Jose and Silicon Valley, indicate that there has been little if any increase in interest in relocating among companies. "I dont see an increase in inquiries. I think the companies are trying to wait it out," said David Bentler, senior consultant for business development at Arizona Public Service, Arizonas biggest electric utility. Stephen Levy, director at the Center for Continuing Study of the California Economy, said companies need to stay in the state. "No one is about to move the center of their innovation activity away from the worlds center of innovation," Levy said.
Freeman, 75, brings a wealth of knowledge to his job. He has held top jobs in several utilities, including the New York Power Authority, Tennessee Valley Authority, Lower Colorado River Authority, Sacramento Municipal Utility District and Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. "Theres never been a better opportunity than this to show that conservation works," said Freeman, a lifelong advocate of efficiency and conservation programs. Freeman also believes that if California can get through this month without many blackouts, the rest of the summer should be relatively calm, because several power plants will be coming online in July and August. And he predicts that, over the next few years, California will reap the benefits of the many conservation measures now being implemented. "The smart companies are finding they can do business with a lot less electricity not by doing without, but by using greater efficiency," Freeman said.

To the right of the basilica, there is a statue of Joseph-Eugene Guigues, the first bishop of Ottawa, who was responsible for the cathedral's completion. The very fine woodwork of the interior was carved in mahogany by Philippe Parizeau. Around the sanctuary there are niches that contain statues of the prophets, patriarchs and apostles crafted in wood by Louis-Philippe Hébert, though they have been painted to look like stone.
