Group asks supreme court to stay US Airways-American Merger
WASHINGTON, Dec 7 (Reuters) - A group of consumers and travel agents filed a last-ditch petition on Saturday to the U.S. Supreme Court to stop American Airlines and US Airways from merging, a move they fear would drive air travel prices up and service down and make planes more crowded.

A Syrian monastery lies at the nexus of Islam, Christianity
It is late afternoon at the monastery of Deir Mar Musa on the edge of the Syrian desert and the only sounds are the call of desert birds and the whisper of the breeze over time-worn stones.
Until, that is, a group of Muslim schoolgirls arrive from a nearby town to fill the monastery's valley with laughter and joyful chattering.
"Keep the noise down. This is a monastery," bellows the Rev. Paolo Dall'Oglio, the monastery's Italian Jesuit founder, looking stern for a moment before breaking into a broad, proud smile.
The monastery of Deir Mar Musa was first built by Greek monks in the sixth century as a remote retreat from the material and political world. Abandoned in the 19th century, it once again houses a small religious community. But now, under its second founder, Father Dall'Oglio, it is on the forefront of politics with a fresh approach to bridge-building with the Islamic world.
"When I arrived here 25 years ago, Syria was [a] center of the struggle between communism and capitalism," says Dall'Oglio, dressed in a worn gray pullover. "And today it is the crossroads between Islam and Christianity."
"For us, dialogue really starts from being curious about others," he says, explaining that instead of proselytizing, the Catholic Church now advocates building bridges with Islam.
Through day-to-day interaction, bridge-building is what the Deir Mar Musa's six monks and nuns and several lay assistants are working toward. Traveling to local Muslim communities they work with Muslim leaders to improve opportunities for young people, promote ecological awareness, and arrange theological discussions between religious leaders.
"It's really just a simple, evangelical life," he says, stroking silvery beard. "I accept pluralism as a gift from God."

Looking at the map, I think that the introductory factions to precipitate pvp in EE are The Knights of Iomedae in the northwest, The Brotherhood of Silence in the center/east and the Hellknights in the south. Obviously the level requirement for faction membership will come later, as will the alignment system. Myself, I don't see a need for an advancement requirement for faction membership when it should be the new players entry into sanctioned player conflict. If players begin with 1000 rep then the only mechanical effect need be that npcs ignore players at -2000, as I believe has been stated. Fort Riverwatch, Thornkeep and Fort Inevitable will each have four trainers representing the mvp roles plus a faction npc. This opens up roughly two-thirds of players as potential targets but will discourage ganking close to one's homebase. I assume looting, grouping in parties, the attacker flag and the normal rep hit for killing someone in your own faction will be in place.

Health officials say winter flu is just starting to show up in the U.S. while swine flu infections continue to wane.
Swine flu was widespread in only 14 states last week - mostly in the Northeast. That's down from 25 states the week before and 48 in late October. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released the new data Friday.
CDC officials said a shortage of swine flu vaccine is easing, with 85 million doses now available. About 98 percent of lab-confirmed influenza cases last week were swine flu, but the CDC also noted seasonal flu is increasing slightly.
The regular flu usually peaks in the winter.

Pros:The cables work fine. I ordered two and they charge and sync just fine. Charges from USB port on a desktop, MacBook Pro, Belkin car adapter and Apple USB charger without issue. The cable feels solid and doesn't feel like its cheap and will fall apart anytime soon. Even has the rubber like texture that various Apple branded cabling have.
Cons:The locking mechanism is different on the two cables I have. Well, they're the same, but one locks in just a little tighter than the other, no biggie.

Metabolically Active Microbes In Hydrocarbon Lakes On Earth Boosts Chances For Extraterrestrial Life
In a ground-breaking discovery released by the journal Science, researchers have revealed microhabitats of metabolically active, thriving microbes living in the world's largest asphalt lake, Pitch Lake, on the island of Trinidad in the Caribbean. Asphalt lakes are large reservoirs of a sticky, black, viscous hydrocarbons (known as asphalt, bitumen or pitch) where no life was expected to be found.
The international team discovered the microbes in tiny water droplets recovered from the lake in 2011. Each sample, measuring only one to three microliters, has the equivalent volume of approximately 1/50 of a conventional "drop" of water.
The team's only United States-based researcher, Dirk Schulze-Makuch, is a professor at Washington University School of the Environment. Using advanced sequencing technologies, the team extracted all the DNA of all organisms in each droplet simultaneously. Reading through 12 microdroplets, they found 21 species of bacteria and archaebacteria.
Professor Schulze-Makuch explained that each water droplet seems representative of an entire ecosystem because of the observed diversity in bacteria and archaea. Moreover, remarkably there was very little measurable ammonia or phosphates, both ingredients thought to be essential for life.
These microbes, the researchers report, are actively degrading oils in the lake, most likely to exploit it as a source of bioenergy. One bioengineering implication of this discovery is to use these active microbes to clean up oil spills with as little impact to the environment as possible.
The water droplets also had an unusually high salt content. By studying the isotope composition of droplets from Pitch Lake, the team was able to say that the microbes did not originate from surface waters that are part of the hydrologic cycle, but rather from much deeper, for example ancient underground seawater or another deep source of brine.
Professor Schulze-Makuch went on to explain that these microbes could mean life on other planets as well. One well-known example is Saturn's moon, Titan. Its surface is characterized as being saturated with hydrocarbons, in liquid lakes on the ground and also in vapor form and liquid rain in the atmosphere. Schulze-Makuch explains that this discovery has implications for astrobiology, the study of life on other planets.
This research was published in Science.

Healthy living, herbal remedies and DIY natural beauty.

Tags: GreenDeals, Groupon, Groupon for Greenies, green shopping, eco-shopping, green consumers, green discounts, Robyn Griggs Lawrence
Groupon, the shopping site that sends coupons for huge discounts with popular businesses to thousands of subscribers via a daily email, has caught millions of budget-minded consumers' fancies (and an unsolicited $6 billion buyout offer from Google). I've never been a big coupon user, largely because most of them offer discounts for products I'd never use. (Frozen TV dinners? Virgin-pulp paper towels? I don't think so.) That's why I'm thrilled to learn about a GreenDeals, a new "Groupon for greenies" service from Green America, a network of environmentally and socially responsible businesses. GreenDeals serves up daily deals, just like Groupon, but (as the name implies) focuses on offers from green companies.
More than 100,000 people have already signed up for GreenDeals, created in partnership with Q4 Marketing.
"GreenDeals helps Americans who are tightening their belts live a green life and save money at the same time," Green America executive director Alisa Gravitz says. "From household necessities to great gift ideas, GreenDeals provides terrific products from businesses that have been screened by Green America for their social and environmental responsibility."
GreenDeals offers discounts and deals every 24 to 48 hours from local and national green online businesses approved by Green America — reassuring in this age of rampant greenwash. "When you get a great green deal from our businesses, you'll know it's truly green," the site states. "We've examined these companies for you to ensure they have deep commitments to social and environmental responsibility in their policies, practices, and products." GreenDeals also offers daily tips on living green, coupons and weekly deals on items such as Kleen Kanteen reusable water bottles, Clif Bars and Moonrise jewelry. Those are coupons I could use.

Like everyone else I haven't posted on her in a while. I was just wondering if anyone was still actively doing affilaite work.
I have done a number of programs which have had varying degrees of success and was hoping to get any additional tips or advice here.
Thanks! Val
Yes! I just found this group but I have found a new one I love....
You can get paid daily for placing one ad a day for the company (It's for Zeekler Penny Auctions)....as long as you place your ad, you get a share in the companies daily profits.
You can also get paid monthly for referring affiliates that get started as a Silver and above.
Silver is $10.00 a month...I have definitely made more than that on the daily pay alone....
There are other ways to make $$$...commissions on any bids your customers buy, sales from your store (another perk)
They have great banners that you can display on ad sites and your blog....
I love it...check it out!

One-piece bathing suits don't have to be boring! SHOP these seriously sexy styles that will leave you sizzling in the sand.
You don't have to wear a bikini to look sexy! You can try all different types of one-piece bathing suits. From pretty patterns to sexy silhouettes and features, the options are endless. Instead of baring it all, you can opt for more coverage without sacrificing sexy style!
High-Waisted Bathing Suits & One-Pieces:
High-waisted bathing suits aren't only so chic but they also cover up your stomach area if you want to hide it. The vintage, retro trend is seriously back in a big way — and it looks great on all body types! Hour-glass figures really look great in the style, but that's not all! A slew of body types can benefit from this cut.
Plunging Bathing Suits:
If you are trying to cover up but still want to look super sexy a one-piece with a plunging neckline is just for you. The low neck will allow you to flaunt your assets while it will also draw the attention to your chest — a great way to distract from looking at other areas! It also is great for the gal who doesn't want to feel totally covered up. Skimpy bikinis don't have anything on this sexy style.
Strapless Bathing Suits & One-Pieces:
Strapless one-pieces are so trendy and have tons of benefits! Most importantly, strapless one-pieces help you avoid tan lines at all costs and it puts your shoulders on full display so you can look sexy by showing off your upper body. If you aren't ready to bare it all and need a little more support, halters also highlight shoulders and are a great alternative to a strapless silhouette.
Backless Bathing Suits & Sexy One-Pieces:
Even though you may opt to cover up in front doesn't mean you can't bare it all on your back! Our favorite one-piece definitely has to be the suit with a stringy back. While the whole front of the suit is covered, the back is held together with strings that offers up a seriously sexy detailing and really balances out the coverage on the front. If there is a day that you don't feel like showing off your stomach, why not show off your entire back in an interesting way!
SHOP our picks if you are looking for a sexy alternative to your basic bikini and get ready to turn up the heat on the beach this summer.

Which famous television autos are in such bad shape they should be traded in? TV Tango has a fun list that includes the Beverly Hillbillies car and Columbo's old Peugeot.

How to Get Rid of Stains and Odors
Pet Peeves 6-10
By Heloise
Special Offers
Pet Peeve 6
Smelly Dishwasher
First check to be sure the drain hose is not crimped and look in the bottom of the machine for bits of food and gunk. Believe it or not, a dishwasher should be cleaned and deodorized occasionally. Pour a gallon of household vinegar in the bottom, let it sit for an hour or so, then run the washer through a full cycle. To help remove hard-water buildup, simply add a half cup of citric acid powder (available at supermarkets) and run the dishwasher. If the odor is still strong, call a plumber, because it could be a potentially hazardous problem that needs to be remedied by a pro.
Pet Peeve 7
Lipstick Marks
Lipstick can usually be removed with rubbing alcohol. Get two hand towels; lay one out and place the garment, lipstick stain facedown, on it. Dip the other towel in the rubbing alcohol and use it to dab the back of the stain. Repeat until stain is gone. Marks made by lipsticks formulated to be long lasting or by those with a lot of gloss may need several treatments.
Pet Peeve 8
Cleaning Silver
Both sterling and silver-plate utensils (except hollow-handle knives) can be washed in the dishwasher as long as you stop the machine before the drying cycle, take the pieces out and hand-dry them. Do not put these utensils in the same basket with stainless steel, because this could damage the sterling. For long-term care, a good-quality silver cream or polish is still the way to go.
Pet Peeve 9
Smoke Fumes on Clothing
Normal laundering should remove the odor from washables. For winter coats and heavy sweaters, many fabric-refresher sprays do a good job. But if there has been a fire and the smoke smell is awful, find a dry cleaner that has an ozone cleaner.
Pet Peeve 10
For washable clothes, soak garment in cold water for about 30 minutes -- that will usually do the trick. However, if you still see a mark, mix a little water with unseasoned commercial meat tenderizer (which breaks down the protein in the blood) and apply to the affected area. If the fabric can't be laundered at home, take it to the dry cleaner ASAP. Point out the stain and let the professionals save the garment.

Halloween Haven
Interactive Dueling Banjo Skeletons
Big hit on Halloween
These guys were a gift from my mom and sister for my Western-themed Halloween display. Easy to assemble, they fit in perfectly with my saloon scene. I ran into trouble with them dying on me a few days before Halloween, too late to exchange them even if Grandinroad had more to send me (they were out of them). Called customer service and they were very understanding when I asked if they would still take them back if I tried to fix them and failed. No problem. One of the servos in the head of one of the players had gotten stuck and I was able to free it. Got me through Halloween night before it happened again and the exchange was hassle-free.
Couple of notes - keep them away from small children who will try to "help" them play the banjo. Let the song play all the way through and the heads return to the "home" position before turning off the power and they are less likely to get stuck. If the same song over and over drives you nuts, turn the volume down and play banjo music through some nearby speakers - visitors were amazed at how many songs the guys knew, so they look pretty convincing.
April 9, 2013
Just OK
The players performed admirably for a short time. Then the head movement on the skeleton with the smaller cap stopped working. So, that's OK. I set them up outside on Halloween. The temperature dropped to about 60 deg and they quit working altogether. Brought them back inside and they started working --- less the head movement, above. The electronics is quite temperature sensitive. Not mentioned in their instructions. Don't use them outdoors when it's chilly!

Great Halloween Fun!
Halloween is magic and magic is just fooling the eye into thinking that what you are seeing is real. For the people complaining that the banjos are not real, they don't have to be, like all props and magic they just have to trick the eye into thinking they are real. I have put my little banjo strummers on hay bales in a dark stage area lit with scary lighting this makes them look bigger and everyone loves them. In fact my grandsons drive me nuts playing them over and over! I have had them for several weeks and they have so far worked perfect. They have been a great addition to add to my Halloween props.
October 28, 2013
Playful Piece in scary setup
I bought this for the 2014 Halloween season. I kept them inside until Halloween night.
They are a people pleaser for sure and very entertaining. They are one of my few "not scary" decorations so I hope their durability is good. So far they have functioned perfectly I look forward to many more seasons with them.
November 17, 2014
These are the cutest but I ordered the first two sets from HSN and one set stopped playing way before Halloween. So they had no more so I ordered another set from Grandinroad and they played about 4 times and set them by my front door for Halloween so I could watch over them and they never played one time and the other set for my partner in business also stopped on Halloween night. So I have returned them all for credit me back. they would be great but still need some work to ensure that they really will preform. very disappointed as people came to see them and they would not play.
November 4, 2013
They were the focus of attention!
Our little visitors, and their parents, watched the dueling skeletons with fascination and delight! We had two short folding step stools that we placed the skeletons on so that their feet touched the floor. Looked great! The only two things that would have made them perfect, was if their mouths opened and closed when they talked...and if a volume control could be added.
November 13, 2014
Until the Banjos Start To Play
I have purchased one of these two years running for two different people.
The first person I bought it for, so absolutely loved them.
I haven't heard from my gift receiv-ee this Halloween so don't know but had Bone Jet I purchased for her last year on display during the Halloween season last year.
Very cute...I have made a suggestion for next Halloween for Rascal Vamps...yep, you guessed it Rascal Flatts singing Life Is A Highway or maybe re-lyric to be Life is a Flyway, I'm gonna Vamp it all night long...and I will think of more....suggested they be dressed to the nines with bat wings that expand and contract with the song...think it would really sell!!!!!
October 10, 2014
really Cute
they are well made and great price waiting a week before halloween. It will be part of several of the animated figures from Grandin Road

I am interested in the Dueling Skeltons, but 38 inches is awful small in heght. Is that mesurement shown of them sitting? Do they appear as a small child of 4 or 5 years old, as an adult or just as a table top chotskie? Thanks
2 years, 6 months ago
We appreciate your interest in this item. These skeletons are 38" tall overall. They are intended to depict adults however are somewhat smaller than a normal adult - more child sized at just over 3 feet tall. We apologize for any inconvenience.Answer:
It is a prop but there size is about a 5 year old. If you want them to look bigger put them up highLength of Ownership: < 1 year
I think they are between a 3-4 year old..but still smaller than I was expecting.2 years, 6 months ago

I use all of my (indoor) props outdoors!How, I make battery packs that replicate the original wall wart that comes with each unit.
I'm an electronics tech, so if you are not sure about what voltage, polarity and plug to use, I would not suggest doing this as it would void your warranty. But it makes everything wireless with no extension cords. Not sure why the manufactures don't have this feature.
Some props come battery operated, with a plug in wall wort just in case.

How are they activated? Motion dector?? and does anyone know if motion activated, how well it works?
2 years, 6 months ago
Yes, they are motion activated, so far they work real well.2 years, 6 months ago
The skeletons are activated by ekectricity. There is a plug that hooks up to one of the skeletons and there is never a need for batteries. Thats what makes these even better!Length of Ownership: < 1 year
2 years, 6 months ago
I have never been satisfied with light activated motion sensors as the light has to shine in front of the props and when you move in front to block the light they activate.Seems these are the same.
Most of my props are in a dark area, so I hook up PIR (passive infrared) sensors that work by heat and motion, so no light needed, of course the banjo players do not have a (try me) button or jack, so I would be voiding the warranty. But at least they will work great!

There appears to be a small hole for a motion or light sensor in the top of the banjos. They work very well.2 years, 6 months ago

City urge Bojinov caution
24 Jan 2008 - 19:54:46
Manchester City assistant manager Hans Backe has warned supporters not to expect Valeri Bojinov to be back in first-team action soon despite his return to training.
The Bulgaria international striker suffered a serious knee ligament injury just three games into his City career following a £5.75million summer transfer from Fiorentina.
The 21-year-old returned to light training this week, but Backe believes City may not see the best of the Bojinov until the start of next season.
He told the club's official website: "He will take time. He had his first session on Wednesday and I believe I am a little bit pessimistic, but I think with that kind of injury he will be fully fit in the summer.
"If we are lucky perhaps it could go quicker, but with that kind of injury I know it takes some months to be back.
"He is so hungry and you can see in each session he's done in the gym, training with the reserves one or two times and the first time back with us, because he's so lively.
"It was a shame for his injury but he will be a big boost for us."
Meanwhile, Backe has revealed that fellow striker Emile Mpenza has been passed fit to face Sheffield United in Sunday's FA Cup fourth round trip to Bramall Lane.

Due to the recent recession, interest in Ayn Rand's Objectivism is greater than ever, and in the past two decades, interest in Eastern philosophies has reignited in the West. There are also many books on the market that cover Objectivism, such as The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem, My Years with Ayn Rand and The Art of Living Consciously, all by Nathaniel Branden. However, although Branden took Objectivist practices and gave them some flexibility, he stopped long before reaching the concepts of "enlightenment" or, at least, the personal serenity found in the Eastern philosophies. Similarly, Buddhism Plain and Simple by Steve Hagen, Buddhism for Dummies, and The 8 Minute Meditation by Victor N. Davich are examples of excellent books on Zen Buddhism and Meditation, but that's where they stop. There has never been any attempt to apply philosophies and other practices to the "real world" of the self, until Morgan D. Rosenberg wrote Dark Buddhism: Integrating Zen Buddhism and Objectivism, where he merges Objectivism with traditional Zen Buddhism. On the surface, these two philosophies seem to contradict each other, with Ayn Rand's principles of self-focus and the Buddha's principles of selflessness, but the author argues that each of them has logical inconsistencies, which once weeded out, means the philosophies can be blended into a cohesive whole. In his book, which is aimed at professionals as well as readers who seek a self-help guide, chapters range from Zen Buddhism Basics and Reintegrating the Self into Buddhism, to Living Consciously and Mindfully and The Dark Buddhist Lifestyle. Although most of this book has been directed towards thoughts and consciousness, which are functions of the mind, the author stresses the importance of always remembering that the body supports the mind. "When you have a feeling, which originates in your mind," he says, "your body responds to it." The connection between self, consciousness, happiness, and the body has been long recognized. To quote the Buddha, "Your body is precious. It is our vehicle for awakening. Treat it with care." The mind-body connection is a very real thing and also part of our modern world. An entirely fresh and highly original philosophy, Dark Buddhism offers a series of practices that will cultivate strong self-worth, bring about inner peace and harmony, help with personal growth, and improve physical health.
Morgan D. Rosenberg presently serves as the Director of Middle East Operations at Litman Law Offices in Manassas, VA. Rosenberg has a graduate degree in Physics from the University of Maryland, and haswon the Society of the Sigma Xi award, the Dr. Robert H. Goddard award, the Bausch and Lomb Science Medal, and the Allied-Signal Science Award. He is a member of Mensa, and is the author of The Essentials of Patent Claim Drafting, which was published by Oxford University Press in 2011.

We previously reported the development of a simple, user-friendly, and versatile 384 hanging drop array plate for 3D spheroid culture and the importance of utilizing 3D cellular models in anti-cancer drug sensitivity testing. The 384 hanging drop array plate allows for high-throughput capabilities and offers significant improvements over existing 3D spheroid culture methods. To allow for practical 3D cell-based high-throughput screening and enable broader use of the plate, we characterize the robustness of the 384 hanging drop array plate in terms of assay performance and demonstrate the versatility of the plate. We find that the 384 hanging drop array plate performance is robust in fluorescence- and colorimetric-based assays through Z-factor calculations. Finally, we demonstrate different plate capabilities and applications, including: spheroid transfer and retrieval for Janus spheroid formation, sequential addition of cells for concentric layer patterning of different cell types, and culture of a wide variety of cell types.

Famous 21 Club's Steak Diane
Total Time
10 minsCook
15 minsI have several recipes for Steak Diane, and this one is from the 21 Club. Cooks Notes: Use the best steak you can afford, from a good butcher.
Nutrition- 16 ounces boneless shell steak or 16 ounces New York strip steaks or 16 ounces sirloin strip steaks or 16 ounces filet mignon
- salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 3 tablespoons finely minced shallots
- 6 tablespoons cognac or 6 tablespoons other good brandy, divided
- 2 tablespoons dry white wine or 2 tablespoons dry vermouth
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard (preferably imported)
- 2 tablespoons A.1. Original Sauce or 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1⁄2 cup beef broth
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons finely snipped chives
- Trim all outside fat off the steak. The steak should now weigh about 12 ounces.
- Cut the steak in half horizontally, creating 2 6-ounce steaks.
- Pound the steaks lightly to flatten them to 1/4-inch thick. Season them on both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Heat a 12-inch skillet until a drop of water dances on the surface.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the butter. As soon as the foam subsides, add the seasoned meat.
- Cook on each side for 1 minute. Remove to a plate. Immediately adjust the heat under the pan to low.
- Add the second tablespoon of butter and the shallots. Sauté the shallots for 1 minute.
- Increase the heat to high. Add 3 tablespoons cognac and flambé, if desired.
- Add the wine, and with a wooden spoon, scrape up any browning in the pan (deg laze the pan). Stir in the mustard and A-1 sauce.
- Cook for about a minute, or until the liquid is reduced to a syrup. Add the broth and continue to boil for about a minute, until reduced to a few tablespoons.
- Add the cream and stir well to incorporate. Boil a few seconds.
- Taste for seasoning and add freshly ground pepper to taste. Add the remaining cognac and ignite. When the flames die down, stir in the chives, taste for salt and pepper, and adjust if necessary.
- Add the reserved steaks and their juices (that have accumulated on the plate) to the simmering sauce.
- Turn the steaks in the sauce a couple of times, as the sauce reduces a little more. Place the steaks on individual plates.
- Divide the sauce on the steaks. Serve with mashed potatoes or brown rice, and some bread to mop up the sauce.

Should corporate America be contributing a greater share to reducing the federal deficit?
On the same day (Jan. 17) that the Business Roundtable, representing 200 of the nation's top chief executives, suggested reducing the federal deficit by raising eligibility ages for Social Security and Medicare recipients to 70 years, Bloomberg News reported that corporate profits are at a historic high: "U.S. corporations' after-tax profits have grown by 171 percent under [Barack] Obama, more than under any president since World War II, and are now at their highest level relative to the size of the economy since the government began keeping records in 1947. ... Profits are more than twice as high as their peak during President Ronald Reagan's administration and more than 50 percent greater than during the late-1990s Internet boom, measured by the size of the economy."
In the same article, Bloomberg reported that "workers' compensation is claiming a 54 percent share of the economy, down from 59 percent as recently as 2001 and the lowest mark since March 1955." (A summary of this article appeared in the Star Tribune on Jan. 20.) It has previously been reported that corporate tax rates are now at 30-year lows as a percentage of GDP. These data prompt the question of whether corporate America itself should be contributing a greater share to reducing the federal deficit instead of relying primarily on lowering employees' entitlements.

I've brewed a grand total of one beer (and it's still green) and I've never played with recipe creation before, so forgive me if this is a stupid question. I did do a search and wasn't able to find anything that quite addressed my question. I've tried and really enjoyed Sierra Nevada's Ruthless Rye. I see that Northern Brewer has come out with a rye malt syrup, which is a boon to extract brewers that want to use rye. With a grain bill of 70% 2-row, 20% rye malt, and 10% caramel 40%, this sounds very much like the grain bill of a typical rye IPA. My question is this: could you just use 12-12.25 lbs of this stuff as the grain bill for a respectable rye IPA?
Actually, according to Northern Brewer the rye is only 20% of the syrup, so it would seem to hit the upper end of your recommendation. I agree that you wouldn't want 100% rye malt as the base!

(I wrote part of this in the recent shotgun thread here, and it sparked a few of my own questions)
I live in an apartment and am paranoid about the thin walls. For home defense—I know the majority of shotgun owners use 00 buck—I have the Mossberg loaded with #12 shot to almost completely reduce the risk of wall penetration. I have the 00 buckshot as backup once I'm composed and am more aware of exacty where my shot is going in an emergency situation. I really have to be careful; I have people above me, and to the side and am a little paranoid about it. I've read about door breaching rounds and how they're practically powdered lead and double duty well for close range combat/defense without that penetration. (The idea of door breaching rounds of course being that you can blow the lock/hinges/whatever off a door and minimize penetration—same idea for home defense and the concern of thin walls). Thoughts on that?
Now, for handguns, does anyone really know exactly what has a good chance of penetrating and what doesn't (generally)? I've read a bunch of forums, and see conflicting answers. The folks at my local gunshop say the best choice is the blue glaser safety rounds. But I've read that these easily penetrate drywall. I don't 'know what to believe now. I've also been told that hollowpoints are a good choice because they expand and have a better chance of stopping in a wall, but that can't be true for drywall?
We'd like to have our .380's or 9mm available for the home, but just aren't sure which ammo (if any) would be adequate for our living situation.
Any guidance greatly appreciated.

Sunderland manager Steve Bruce hopes to have three of his key players back fit for Sunday's derby with Newcastle.Lee Cattermole, Nedum Onuoha and Danny Welbeck have all been pivotal in the Black Cats' rise into the top six this season and may return from injury against Alan Pardew's men.Bruce told the club's official website, www.safc.com: "Onuoha, Cattermole and Welbeck might be in the equation, but we'll see how things go. It's early in the week right now. I hope we'll have some of our big players back for Sunday's game."One thing you want is your players going out there 100% fit. If they're not they don't play, it's as simple as that."They will have to train Wednesday, Thursday and Friday before I even consider them."One thing I've learnt over the years is if you try to rush someone back before they are fully fit, they are useless."

The Super Food Group - Ch. 4Chapter 4 Prehistoric PowerIt had been a couple of hectic weeks for the SFG after dealing with Tommys over-reaction to getting hit in the face, with Toao and Azzy in particular feeling the effects of lost time saving the city from Doctor Dents attacks. Toao had less time for inventing, testing and causing havoc, while Azzy had not only her job and store to keep an eye on, but her lessons as well. Despite Danis insistence that they relax for a few days, and let her and Mini-Me handle things the pair marched on, facing teeth braking robots with giant fists, a meteor and two giant mutated creatures. It was a big relief to them when they found out that nothing was going wrong for once one day, so Dani offered to patrol the city, leaving Toao to stay in the Canteen of Tranquillity and Azzy got to relax in the Four Fables, alongside Mini-Me, who Toao sent to do some maintenance on her electronics.How are you and Dani able to keep this up?E
The Super Food Group - Ch. 1Chapter 1 Thrills, spills and windowsIt was a rather warm summer day in the Tandy Gardens Park, with several of the towns inhabitants using the weather to tap up tans, or just as an excuse to do nothing. In one of the more open parts of the park, two Scottish people one a third of the size of the other, were standing in the middle, each holding steering wheels, turning them rather sharply and visors over their eyes. The larger one sighed in frustration as he removed the visor and looked at the smaller one. This is what I get for letting you play games all day while I work!This rather large Scotsman was Toao, also known as Trike to others who didnt like saying Toe-a-oh every time they talked to him. Toao stood at 6 foot five and weighed at around two hundred and fifty pounds, a combination of fat and muscle. Clad in his usual black shirt and opting for a Kilt, rather than Combat trousers due to the weather, alongside his Steel toe caps
The Super Food Group - Ch. 2Chapter 2 Rise of the SultanIt was the day after Toao swore vengeance on Avocado Girl for breaking his window. His Facility looked no different, except for the fully repaired window. No-one was inside the building, except for one person. Walking through the door was neither Toao nor Mini-Me, but a woman dressed in a dark purple open tight jacket and a knee-long dark purple skirt, with matching shoes in the same colour and dark tights. Under the jacket she wore a ringer shirt in pink with flower prints and ANTREYKI in black letters, with medium-sized circular glasses that rested on her nose. With a silver necklace, rings and earrings, and her dark blonde hair in a tight bun, Dani held her ribs in one hand, and a shopping bag in the other. Her ribs were sore after yesterdays escape. Leaning on Toaos computer, she groaned.This would be easier if I didnt leap out of his window...He must keep some sort of potion around here...I know

Anita Sarkeesian, aka Feminist Frequency, is a cunt. A massive, massive cunt.
If you're reading this you probably already think that, and if you don't, you're more than likely just as much a cunt as her.
It's often assumed, for some reason, that I assume with Anita, as she seems to share my 'anti-men' mentality. Maybe she does, but her and I are on two completely different levels. I accept the singular fact that women in this country are not nearly as oppressed as people like her see. There is no true 'patriarchy' in which the noble 'feminists' must fight against to obtain equality and freedom. Women in this country live on the top side of numerous double standards that give them advantage in society. We are not disadvantaged, unequal, or otherwise put down unless we allow ourselves to be, or if you're Anita, tell yourself that you are everyday due to a false and self-righteous victim mentality.
Video games, Anita? Video games. Video games are the reason women are oppressed. Anita, is it because of video games that women in third world countries are forced into burqas, into slavery, sex trafficking, or otherwise oppressed by men? Is it because of video games that legislators in this country are so interested in regulating what I do with my vagina? Is the fact that Link from the Legend of Zelda isn't a woman so horrible and oppressive to women that you must take over 100 thousand dollars from other delusional idiots who agree with anything that would feed their own victim mentality?
You haven't played one of those games. Not one.
I myself am not a huge gamer myself (in case it isn't obvious) and even I can tell that what you claim about many of them are complete bullshit. Showing two seconds of a clip, of a woman being hit, for example, could be out of context, and you do that with dozens of them.
Would I like more women in video games? Yes, Anita, I would. But the fact remains simply that games are about the game. It's about having fun on an adventure in a virtual world, and your bringing arbitrary drama and forcing the point of 'sexism' in video games is not only stupid in callous, but outright distasteful to the people who devote their lives, working for years on these games only to have them called trash by a dumb cunt on the internet, because they didn't want to write in a mary sue perfect female character.
Fuck off, Anita Sarkeesian. Fuck off and don't dare call yourself a feminist.

Skysports.com understands Louis Dodds is poised to sign a new deal with Port Vale.
Midfielder Dodds was one of a number of players coming to the end of his contract at the League Two club next month.
The Valiants offered the 23-year-old fresh terms and Dodds is expected to sign a two-year extension to keep him at Vale Park.
Dodds has established himself as a key member of Micky Adams' squad since arriving from Leicester in the summer of 2008.
