To Realize the Self You First Must Become Selfless
January 1, 2013
Question: What would be the most practical advice for one who wants to realize the Self?
Answer: First of all, we need to keep in mind that it is incorrect to say that only a few, rare people have the desire to realize the Self, to know their own essential nature. The truth is that every single human being journeys toward that goal. The only difference is that some journey consciously and some journey unconsciously. Those who journey consciously are called yogis and those who journey unconsciously are called ordinary people. All of us, however, are moving toward the realization of the Self, and this movement follows a certain order – karma yoga, bhakti yoga, raja yoga and jnana yoga.
Karma yoga means the yoga of selfless service, and selflessness is the first thing to be developed. Living for the welfare of other beings means we have to change our habit of wanting everything to be for ourselves. In karma yoga we turn this around; we learn to live and act for the welfare of others. We do this service with a special attitude, meaning we do not expect a reward for our actions. We do not expect to receive the fruits of our actions, which makes this type of activity selfless. We culminate the practice of karma yoga by offering the action itself and the fruits of the action to Ishvara, to the Supreme Being. Doing this type of activity eliminates the impurity of the heart, which is selfishness, and prepares us for a higher yoga, which is called bhakti yoga.
Bhakti yoga is the yoga of divine love. At first that love is directed toward all of our fellow beings, but then it is focused on Ishvara, or the Supreme Being, or God, which is the reality behind the phenomenal world and the phenomenal existence. It is the creator, the preserver of creation, and the destroyer of creation. God is the inner dweller who sits within our heart and from there rules the universe. Without God dwelling in our heart, we could not even exist. Bhakti yoga is the practice of directing love toward Ishvara or God, and it purifies the mind of its outgoing tendencies, of being turbulent and scattered. When we practice this yoga we prepare ourselves for the yoga of meditation, or raja yoga.
When we enter into raja yoga we are learning to do two things – to make our mind one-pointed and to meditate. We go through all the different levels of meditation, up to the highest levels, which are the levels of samadhi. For most people this process, generally speaking, follows a certain ladder of eight steps which are causal by nature, meaning one step leads to another. You cannot skip steps, so real raja yogis will not skip the first two steps, the yamas and niyamas, which are the ethical basis of raja yoga. If they skip them they cannot be successful in the subsequent steps because mastery of one step leads you to the next. Those rare people who follow the steps properly attain the higher levels of raja yoga, the levels of deep meditation and Samadhi, or super-consciousness, which is a preparation for jnana yoga, the highest yoga.
Jnana yoga is the yoga of wisdom or the yoga of knowledge because it teaches us how to liberate ourselves from samsara, from this infinite ocean of misery. Samsara consists of birth, the in-between which basically is a mode of existence with different grades of misery, and death, and then an existence after death in different levels – some of them nicer than others. Then we are born again, and on and on in a vicious cycle. This ocean of suffering, though, is sugar-coated, meaning it appears to be a great existence even though the bitter experience of samsara lies just beneath the sugar coating. Most people cannot see this, so they just revolve in this cycle of misery. Then one day we wake up. We get the desire to liberate ourselves from this mode of existence and to enter into the realm of truth.
The realm of truth is where we are all supposed to be, so it is called the realm of our true nature. It is a beautiful, glorious, blissful, harmonious, wise and extraordinary realm. It is the realm of the Atma or the Self. In jnana yoga we learn how to exit samsara and enter into this realm, an achievement that is called Self-realization or moksha or spiritual liberation. This exit from samsara is a process of wisdom and knowledge so it is called jnana yoga, or the yoga of wisdom. It is the culmination of the whole process of yoga. Every step in this process is absolutely necessary, so we start our journey to Self-realization with the most fundamental yoga, with karma yoga. A jnana yogi is a person who is a master of karma yoga, a master of bhakti yoga, and a master of raja yoga. Only such a person can enter the path of jnana yoga or the yoga of knowledge.
You may ask, where is hatha yoga? Hatha yoga is a sub-school of the raja yoga school. Where is kudalini yoga? Kundalini yoga is another sub-school of raja yoga. The same is true with mantra yoga and with nada yoga, the yoga of sound. When you practice raja yoga, you go through all of these practices of mantra yoga, kundalini yoga, hatha yoga and so on. Now some people may say, oh this is difficult and this is long, but it is neither difficult nor long. Rather, it is samsara, the infinite lives of suffering and misery, that is long. Yoga is called the short path because you can realize the Self in one lifetime if you exert, if you are sincere, if you have a good guru. It is called the short path because it can help us to exit endless samsara.
Exiting samsara does not mean that only you exit, because if the motivation behind yoga is egotistic the Self cannot be realized. Self-realization is not ego realization; it is the realization of our true nature, which is ultimate altruism. A realized person loves all beings as his own self. Not intellectually, but truly. These people have what we call ultimate empathy. Ultimate empathy means they really feel for every single being within this creation the way a good mother feels for her own child. Therefore, when these beings realize the Self and exit samsara, they have only one thing in mind – to help everyone else. You have people like Swami Vishnudevananda, who more or less sacrificed his life for every single person on this planet, and Swami Sivananda, who did everything in his capacity to teach people how to practice yoga in the easiest possible way. Swami Sivananda definitely wanted to save all of us from samsara. He wrote so many books. He taught yoga in such a simple way that everyone could practice, and he was actually quite successful. All these people are very compassionate by nature and they do everything in their capacity to help everyone, and they have the capacity to help. There are also people who want to help but don't have the capacity.
The only problem these great yogis have is that we have free choice, and most of the time our choices are not very good. There is a universal law that the free choice of human beings cannot be violated, so even great yogis like Swami Sivananda must allow us to make mistakes. The great yogis who are guiding us, though, will try to persuade us in a kind way and point us toward better choices. Still, the choice is free, and therefore even great beings like Lord Jesus, like Lord Buddha, like Moses, like Muhammad – all these great beings who come to the planet Earth – are not able to save all of humanity from samsara because of two factors: one is the factor of evolution – everyone has the right to go through the complete process of evolution – and the other is this factor of free choice that cannot be violated. When we ourselves come to the point where we have a better comprehension of our situation, and we desire to practice yoga and to realize the Self, it is a very good thing, and such an opportunity should not be missed.

Hello. I think I have a solution to the problems at Heathrow.
Thinking out of the box, I think the problem can be solved with logistics and expansion.
Why not send two airplanes up, at the same runway, but opposite way? One airplane at each side of the runway. Airplane 1 starts to take off, when just leaving runway, airplane 2 starts right away. So on it goes. You have to direct the traffic in different way, since airplanes coming out and in both ends, but you have doubled the capacity. (also agree to route planes to nearby airports).
Other way is to build a landing stip on top of the existing one. 500 meters in or so, you can start building the other landing stip, on top.
I leave the details to the experts, but think this might work. Very unconventional solution, but sometimes it needs to be like that.

Dividend Stocks: BioMed Realty, W. P. Carey
BALTIMORE ( Stockpickr) -- Last week was a slow one for dividends with only seven companies declaring increases in their payouts to shareholders. But despite that lack of income action, dividends continue to be a big deal on Wall Street -- particularly when stocks are slow to perform and capital gains can't be found.
History tells us that when the market is bearish, dividend stocks are a good place to be. Over the last 36 years, dividend stocks outperformed the rest of the S&P 500 by 2.5% annually, and they outperformed nonpayers by nearly 8% each and every year, according to a study from NDR. And right now, companies that are willing to part with cash in arguably tough times are worth a second look.
Here's a look at
this week's dividend increasers.

The Mayans are a Mesoamerican (the region between central Mexico and northern Costa Rica) civilization known for their fully-developed written language, art and architecture and math and astronomical systems.
The Mayan calendar (of doom?).
More recently, they've become better known for their calendar system which is notable for it's accuracy, but also because the long form of the calendar somewhat mysteriously ends on December 21st, 2012. It probably doesn't help that the 21st is also the winter solstice — meaning is has the shortest day and longest night of the year.
Take the quiz below to learn more about the Mayan culture and watch the video of Julian's trip to Chichen Itza, a city built by the Mayans, to learn more about what some believe is the Mayans big prediction.

High-Performance, Counterbalanced Putters Provide Maximum Stability Through the Stroke
FAIRHAVEN, Mass. (May 6, 2014) – Two of Master Craftsman Scotty Cameron's most-popular, tour-proven models and shapes – Select Newport 2 and GoLo 7 – are now available with Dual Balance technology for golfers that want to stabilize their putting stroke.
Scotty Cameron Dual Balance putters are counterbalanced designs, developed through extensive research and testing in the Putter Studio and on the PGA Tour, that provide unmatched stability for golfers that struggle to make a consistent stroke with a conventional length putter.
Cameron and his team, through two decades of high-speed video research with tour players, have found that the best putters in the world keep the butt end of the putter pointed to the same 1- to 2-inch circle in their midsection throughout the stroke. Dual Balance putters, with a 50-gram heavier head weight (400 grams total) and a 50-gram counterweight in the butt of the putter shaft, are specifically designed to help golfers replicate that stroke, without anchoring the club to the body.
"The purpose of anchoring a putter is to stop the butt end of the club from moving. Now that anchoring will be against the rules, we've determined the best way to help golfers regain that stability and control is through Dual Balance, by adding 50 grams to the shaft and balancing that with 50 grams in the head," Cameron said. "It eliminates that tendency for many players to flip, push or lead the putter with their hands.
"Instead of stopping the butt end, we're able to slow everything down. The counterweight in the shaft helps keep the butt stable and pointed at your belly. The additional head weight makes the putter slower and more lethargic without it feeling too heavy. If you only add shaft weight, you actually end up robbing head weight, which makes the head quicker. So you need to balance that out. We have found through our experiments that 50 grams in the shaft and head is ideal for weight, feel and performance. But you have to be careful to maintain the proper shaft flex. It took a lot of testing to make sure we got everything just right with these new models."
The proper length of a Dual Balance putter is three inches longer than a golfer's conventional putter length. (Accordingly, the standard length of a Dual Balance putter is 38 inches, three inches longer than the standard length of a conventional 35-inch Scotty Cameron putter.) The additional three inches provides stability while keeping the putter unanchored.
The larger diameter, 15-inch long Dual Balance Flat Front Winn grip is designed so golfers can grip down to place the shaft weight above the hands for a smoother, more stable stroke. The grip has a colored section at the top that indicates proper hand placement (at 35 inches for standard models), keeping the 50-gram counterweight above the hands for maximum effect.
The combination of the heavier head, shaft weight and larger grip stabilize the stroke by reducing the common faults of flipping, pushing or dragging with the hands.
SHAPE CHOICES: The Dual Balance lineup now includes a shape from each of Cameron's three tour-validated putter families: Select, GoLo and Futura X."Putting is such a personal experience. That's why we have three different putter families, with putters that are doing and saying different things," Cameron said. "The shape of the putter may be something you like to look at, or it could be more about alignment. Either way, it's all about finding what helps you and gives you confidence. That's why it was important for us to bring Dual Balance technology to each of our families."Select Newport 2, Cameron's most popular model both on tour and with players around the world, is a modern blade with crisp back angles and a single black sight line for refined precision. The Newport 2 Dual Balance head is slightly larger than the conventional model to accommodate for the additional 50 grams.GoLo 7 is an elegant yet modern, easy-to-align mallet, with a single black sight line that helps square the face. The putter has a rounded profile and racy soleplate design with a curved back that flows into the ground. GoLo 7 Dual Balance stores its extra 50 grams under the soleplate. The conventional GoLo 7 model is hollow under the soleplate.Select Newport 2 and GoLo 7 Dual Balance putters use a deep-milled face to deliver tour-proven feel and soft sound. Both models feature a soft Silver Mist finish with race-car inspired, framed and double-milled cherry dot graphics in the back and cherry dot graphics in the sole to help create a modern but timeless appearance.Futura X, Cameron's original Dual Balance design, is a high-MOI mallet with advanced perimeter stability weighting and T-shaped sight lines. Futura X Dual Balance has a steel center section, increasing the weight by 50 grams, as opposed to the aluminum center section of the conventional Futura X. The putter has a Frozen Titanium finish that helps reduce glare, two black sight lines and red cherry dot weights in the sole and balance bar. The mid-milled face texture draws a crisp sound from the aluminum face and body.
PRICE AND AVAILABILITY: Select Newport 2 and GoLo 7 Dual Balance putters have an MSRP of $399 and are available beginning May 30, 2014, in golf shops worldwide.

At the North Texas LPGA Shootout, Pro V1x loyalist Stacy Lewis turned in a commanding performance that included two rounds of 7-under 64 as she ran away from the field and won by six shots.
On the European Tour, Felipe Aguilar relied on his Pro V1x golf ball to fire a back-nine 28 on Sunday that sealed his victory at The Championship at Laguna National in Singapore.
In Texas, Pro V1 loyalist Bernhard Langer continued his amazing success on the senior circuit, becoming the tenth player in Champions Tour history to win 20 tournaments with his victory at the Insperity Invitational.
And on the Web.com Tour, Titleist Brand Ambassador Blayne Barber trusted his Pro V1x golf ball and a full bag of Titleist golf clubs to capture his first Web.Com Tour title at the South Georgia Classic.
With four more wins this week, Titleist's year-to-date victory count advances to 51. That's more than five times the nearest competitor with 9 and more than all competitors combined.
In total, 7,293 players have teed up Titleist golf balls in competition on the 2014 worldwide professional tours, more than six times the nearest competitor with 1,143 and more than all competitors combined.

The PGA Tour rolls into Charlotte, NC this week for the Wells Fargo Championship at the Quail Hollow Club. Mix in the southern charm and hospitality along with the caliber of the host course, and it's no surprise that this event has quickly become a favorite stop among players on tour.
Playing at a demanding 7,445 yards in length, the course will force players to hit every club in their bags but birdies can come in bunches for players who are willing to play creative and aggressive shots.
To pull off these types of bold shots, players will need complete trust in their golf ball and this week 94 players in the field of 156 will trust a Titleist golf ball for their success, more than 4 times the nearest competitor with 22 and more than all competitors combined.
Titleist was also the top choice among players in the irons (38), sand, lob and approach wedge (153) and putter (55) categories.
Check out the gallery above for a quick tour inside the ropes from earlier in the week.
FAST FACT: Quail Hollow Club will be hosting its first major championship in 2017 with the playing of the 99th PGA Championship.
Good luck to all the players this weekend!

I honestly believe that the Bush Administration has finished the Republican Party. Many of us old time members of the GOP took a terrible hit under Nixon. It allowed Carter to win in 1977 and his problems allowed Reagan. That was the end of the GOP as they lost their way from Bush to Clinton with the final destruction of Bush 43.
There is no candidate running in 2008 that is running as a Republican that doesn't carry a very dishonest agenda. Even Paul wants to get rid of Roe v Wade that will bring back the slaughter of many women in trouble.
I am a Conservative but certainly not a social conservative. I am tired of the threats coming from the religious right and until we can get a secular Republican movement going I will never vote again for the GOP. The religious right has no concept of telling the truth to the American people. They have been hiding behind the cross for too many years.

I have seen many movies and read many books about people having their own room. So one day I asked my mother if I could have one. She agreed and here I am, sitting in my own room at my desk. I stuck Calvin and Hobbes posters all around the room. The liquid, home-made mucus and glow-in-the-dark mucus are stuck all around the room. The mucus is actually a science experiment and is called oobleck made from corn flour and water. I have made many traps for my room. My favourite is a plastic stick on which I stuck a touch-sensitive buzzer that was in an old toy. I then put one end of the stick into the door handle and the other end behind my desk. This will alert me when someone opens my door. I made a sign on my door saying "Danger. Vibhu's room. Do not disturb. Genius at work." My grandmother cut the picture of the Indian cricket team holding the World Cup trophy from the newspaper and stuck it on a piece of cardboard and hung it on my wall. She also gave me an Angry Birds night light that can change colour. On my desk, there is a picture of God along with one of Vivekananda's sayings. Scattered around the desk are story books and of course my school books. I wanted a room so that I could stay secret from my mother and the rest of the world. When my friends come for a sleepover to my house, we raid the refrigerator, lock the door and feast and play all night. I thank my mother for giving me my own room.

When J.R. Gilkinson counted the number of passengers aboard his boat for an afternoon sail off the waters of Newport Beach, Calif., he did not count a baby sea lion among them.
A baby sea lion, however, was exactly who spent the better part of an hour on board Gilkinson's boat May 18 after making his way up the boat's back deck.
"A whole bunch of dolphins were feeding around us so we hung out there for a while," Gilkinson of Orange, Calif., told ABCNews.com today. "Once they all disappeared, this baby sea lion pup appeared from nowhere and circled the boat."
Gilkinson, along with his wife, niece and friends aboard their rented 33-foot sailboat, watched as the pup climbed aboard the sailboat's back deck. What the sea lion did next amazed them.
"He came over towards me," Gilkinson said. "He started sniffing my leg and just lays up against me, puts his head back a few times and yawns, laying between my leg and the boat ledge."
"He spent over an hour like that," he said. "It was amazing."
Gilkinson and the other humans on board let the sea lion pup be, just watching as he looked down into the waters he normally calls home and enjoying his time on dry land.
"We didn't feed him at all. We didn't beckon him to come on the boat," Gilkinson said. "Everything was completely on his terms. He was in perfect shape."
The only problem with the seal's mini-vacation came when Gilkinson had to get his rented boat back to the marina. The group pulled up the boat's anchor, thinking that would get the sea lion moving, but the pup stayed put.
They then drove the boat a few miles into Newport Harbor and it was only when Gilkinson stood up that the pup realized it was time to go.
"He looked up and saw me and he walked away to the ledge and belly flopped off the boat and was gone," Gilkinson said. "It was like he kind of realized this must be it."
"He probably would have stayed on there longer."

Led By President Rogers, Loons Flying High In 2014
It has been a good year for Minnesota United FC.
The NASL club held a successful preseason in England, captured the league's Spring Season Championship, defeated an English Premier League side in an international friendly, and is currently attracting franchise-record home crowds.
And it's only August.
For Minnesota United FC President Nick Rogers and his staff, this run of success hasn't come by accident. When Dr. Bill McGuire, former Chairman/CEO of UnitedHealth Group, purchased the team back in late 2012, it was the beginning of what has been an incredible club transformation on and off the field.
The club was rebranded to Minnesota United FC in 2013, and Rogers was appointed to run its day-to-day operations. Since that moment, United, as the club is commonly referred to, has made incredible progress, going from just another one of the Twin Cities' many sports teams to one that fans seek out as a priority in the market.
"In areas like the Twin Cities, it can be hard to find your foothold. You have MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, WNBA, minor league baseball, and a huge university to compete with," Rogers said. "I think the fact that we have been able to overcome some of that is a testament to our commitment and competitiveness, and I think that is generally what has gotten us to where we are now."
On the field, Rogers is the first one to emphasize the correlation between the product on the field and the buzz surrounding the club. That very fact is why United has gone to great lengths to invest in top-level talent and training programs. Prior to the start of the 2014 NASL season, United traveled to England for a 10-day preseason stint that included playing friendlies against the likes of Derby County FC.
"I think our trips to England and Los Angeles were just a few examples of things we have done to help the first team focus on their goals," Rogers said. "The England trip galvanized the team a little bit. Being in that environment and culture sort of isolates you in a way that is positive, I think. The time the team spent together during the preseason created a bond that was really important."
United Head Coach Manny Lagos, along with his assistant Carl Craig, did their homework when it came to player recruitment. Rogers credits them with identifying a pair of players who have been particularly key in the team's run of success.
"Tiago Calvano and Juliano Vicentini have been incredible for us this season. Tiago has been our rock at center back, and he is rarely talked about which is probably good when it comes to his position," Rogers said. "Juliano has been great as well, and I think those two players have really helped breathe some confidence into our team."
Whatever the combination of Rogers, Lagos, and Craig has done, it's working. The club won the NASL Spring Season Championship in June, earning them an automatic berth into The Championship, the league's four-team postseason tournament. In July, they made waves in the soccer world with their 2-0 shutout victory over English Premier League side Swansea City FC, and since then they haven't looked back.
The Loons are currently riding a 10-game unbeaten streak, dating back to the Spring Season, where their only loss came against the New York Cosmos in early May. Forward Christian Ramirez leads the league in goals with 12, and has been named NASL Player of the Week three times already this season.
Off the field, the club is making tremendous strides as well. Rogers heads up the business operations, and has more than doubled the club's full-time staff. The additional resources on the business side have included the presence of an in-house video production team – an asset that Rogers sees as tremendously valuable.
"When I went to Dr. McGuire to talk about some of the things I wanted to do on the business side, video was an area that I found to be an extremely important," Rogers said. "He supported it, and allowed me to do a nationwide manhunt to find our video producer. It has gone a long way because I think it has shown the type of culture that we're trying to build."
Whether it's inside the confines of their office or out on the field, United is clearly headed in the right direction. Commitment from ownership and buy-in from the front office staff and team have led to a memorable year thus far for United.
"We're trying to build a club that people in the Twin Cities can be proud of and want to associate with," Rogers said. "This is something that Dr. McGuire has pushed since day one."
As for the team's on-field goals for the rest of the year, Rogers made them pretty clear.
"It obviously was gratifying for us to secure a spot in The Championship early on in the season, but at the same time, we realize that simply getting there isn't what we're trying to achieve," Rogers asserted. "Our goal is to end up with three trophies – the Spring, the Fall, and the Soccer Bowl."
United's quest for the NASL Fall Season Championship continues this Saturday when they travel to New York to take on the Cosmos at 7:30 p.m. ET. The Loons currently sit atop both the Fall and Combined Standings with a little over two months to play.

'Game of Thrones' season 2 trailer debuts online
(Read article summary)'Game of Thrones' new trailer for its second season shows more feuding, battles.
Nick Briggs/HONS/HBO/AP
Game of Thrones was arguably the most well-received and critically-acclaimed new genre show of the last year – and now that the 2011 Emmys and the Golden Globes have come and gone, you can add award-winning to that list, as well.
Since closing out its first season way back in June, fans of the HBO fantasy series – based on the popular A Song of Ice and Fire series of novels by George R. R. Martin – have been waiting impatiently for their first glimpse of Season 2.
And while we've previously seen teasers (and a featurette) for the forthcoming season, today's the first time we're seeing an official trailer with undeniably significant footage all throughout.
Check it out below:
The trailer does a perfect job of giving fans of the series just enough information and imagery to temporarily satisfy our nigh-on insatiable Game of Thrones cravings while still remaining mostly vague.

NBN backs down on agreement
PUBLISHED: 12 Jan 2012 00:01:00 | UPDATED: 12 Jan 2012 13:11:57PUBLISHED: 12 Jan 2012 PRINT EDITION: 12 Jan 2012David Ramli
NBN Co has made last-minute concessions to avoid a stand-off with telecommunications providers that had threatened to stall the number of customers signing up.
The Wholesale Broadband Agreements set out the access terms for telecommunication companies using the $35.9 billion national broadband network and must be signed by all participants.
iiNet chief executive Michael Malone said all parties were at the final stages of negotiations and a new agreement would be presented by Friday. "We're down to a difference in words with some amendments and clauses," he said."
Internode carrier relations manager John Lindsay said lawyers from all sides were in discussions and expected a "satisfactory conclusion". "The most important area of concern is the liability issue," he said. "You don't want to be in a position where NBN Co's installers have wrecked your customer's house or have no incentive to do connections in a timely fashion, with you getting the blame."
NBN Co initially warned telcos they would be banned from signing up new customers unless they signed the agreements.
But experts said the move would only damage the NBN amid rising criticism of NBN Co's low sign-up rate. According to its figures, 4000 customers were connected by the end of 2011 compared with the 35,000 its corporate plan forecast by June 2011.
The Australian Financial Review has been told carriers will be presented with an amended wholesale agreement that includes a range of concessions.
Sources close to negotiations said it shifted much of the legal risk to NBN Co to reduce their liability and addressed concerns about the lack of oversight by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.
NBN Co spokeswoman Rhonda Griffin declined to provide a deadline for the discussions but said they were ongoing.
According to a senior telco executive who did not wish to be named, NBN Co agreed to negotiate after their threat to ban users was made public by the Financial Review.
"There has been a change in the vibe and tone and NBN Co is easing off," they said.

Wednesday, February 23
New Orleans Arena
Attendance: 17,537
New Orleans, LA (Sports Network) - Chris Paul recorded 19 points, 10 assists and six rebounds, as the New Orleans Hornets defeated the Los Angeles Clippers, 98-87.
David West added 22 points and eight boards for the Hornets, who snapped a three-game skid. Willie Green chipped in with 17 points.
"It was a good win; a good defensive effort on our part as a team," Green said. "It was some of the things we've been going over in practice: getting back to our fundamentals, stopping guys from getting to the paint, making sure we box out and rebound. We did that and kept them in the eighties. When we do that, we're a good team."
Blake Griffin tallied his usual double-double with 21 points and 13 rebounds for the Clippers, who fell to 2-8 on their season-long 11-game road trip.
Randy Foye donated 15 points and nine assists for Los Angeles, which got 14 points from Chris Kaman.
Trailing by five, 16-11, with over five minutes remaining in the first quarter, the Hornets scored the final 12 points of the period to go in front. West and Paul each tallied four points during the surge, which Jarrett Jack capped with a pair of free throws for a 23-16 margin.
The Clippers, though, scored the first seven points of the second stanza to tie the game at 23-23. But Marco Belinelli's three-point play and Jack's bank shot gave New Orleans a 28-23 lead with 9 1/2 minutes to go.
Belinelli added a three-pointer and jumper later in the frame to extend the Hornets' margin to 38-31 with three minutes left. New Orleans led 45-38 at the half.
Los Angeles kept it close early in the third and got within four, 55-51, on DeAndre Jordan's free throw with 9 1/2 minutes remaining. But Green sparked a 13-3 New Orleans run with a trey and jumper. Paul capped the burst with a layup to make it a 68-54 contest with over three minutes to go.
Paul's jumper at the end of the stanza gave the Hornets a 73-62 edge heading to the fourth.
The Clippers never got closer than nine in the fourth.
"Turnovers (hurt us). We let our offense affect our defense and vice versa," Griffin said. "We didn't get stops. We came down the floor and kind of rushed into things and turned the ball over."

stanczyk 5pts it looks good (little Viper), drives fast (268hp ,wheelspinning 650 Nm, or 480 lb-ft - Torque is a KING ! - Muscle car?:)there's Youtube film EV vs Chalanger, that it beats SRT8 Chall in quater mile race..!meet new Muscle kid on the block ..and it comes from a American Muscle lover..
bl4d3y 5pts It is still better than the Lexus gs-450h which would be the same as if we stick a 9V battery in a Mustang and call it a hybrid. The only proper hybrid, for now, according to experts is the Toyota Prius and not only it's ugly as hell, it's not actually economical. It does 17 mpg!!! Besides you can't judge that it's a lotus. Lotus are now, for me, the best handling cars but the manufacturers are doing tunings for others. And Motownmojo I'm guessing you are American. You are not the best at power. And you are not that good in it. Your v8-s are lazy... I mean that I saw an American v8 beaten by an Italian 2.4l straight 4 in an Alfa Romeo.
Motownmojo 5pts In all fairness only one of the big 3 turned a profit last quarter, so having lotus set up the car to handle right is a very good idea, I just hope the we stick to what we're good at, power!!! But, I'm betting that the minivan will be first to production for the reason that Tamarack said.
Shift Ctrl 5pts I'm actually very interested in the Chrysler EV, Mostly because finally some one thought about making an efficient people mover. I would like to know the power of the electric motor too.
stars revolt 5pts FYI. In-wheel motors replace conventional brakes completely and weigh about the same. Which means no significant gains in unsprung weight. Just to let you know.
Dante_Apollyon 5pts Tamarack The Military is going to use "in wheel/hub" electric motors for their upcoming APV's and the HUMMVEE's replacement. So if it is good enough for the United States Army, its good enough for you.
tamarack 5pts Ibjeepr:Many automakers have experimented with 'in-wheel' or 'hub' electric motors and I remain skeptical for two reasons.1. All that unsprung weight is a disadvantage in racing and hard on the tires.2. Could it handle the pounding, especially for off-road applications, without breaking a seal?I do like the low center of gravity and traction capabilities, but body mounted motors seems much more feasible until the motor weight is drastically reduced.
JoeyG8GT 5pts Pretty cool idea-performance at a low/no fuel cost-good luck when the battery dies out.
johnsean 5pts Lotus have let GM (Opel sportster) and Tesla use their platforms in the past. This week Fiat announced their intention to platform share with Lotus on the new "Dino" (http://myvision.iuplog.com). So Chrysler are buying into a tried and trusted chassis. Dodge will come up with a good styling package. Introduce a battery and voila!Why not?
Ibjeepr 5pts 40 miles on pure electric is pure gold to me, my daily driving is only about 30 miles a day.A four wheel drive (electric motor at each wheel) would be incredible. Full torque from 0 would be amazing off road.My lease is up on my 2008 Sahara in Jan of 2010, Please let me have an EV Wrangler then!
STIC5 5pts I'm willing to bet that it's the electric only sports car that will be released in 2010. The E-REV designs take a lot more engineering, and I doubt that Chrysler is far enough along to accomplish that. I do like the fact that we have another American company that can see that EVs and E-REVs are the future, not silly hybrids with weak batteries or diesels.
tamarack 5pts An electric sports car competing with the Tesla would be a great high-end seller for Chrysler to offset R&D costs and push technology. Would also maintain Chrysler's performance and ingenuity impression.If they can bring an E-REV minivan to market at a reasonable price, it would not only sell to tree-hugging soccer moms, but would be the replacement vehicle for most taxi fleets. 45-50mpg and no fuel usage at idle- that's a cabby's dream and would meet NY's taxi mpg target.Not sure a E-REV Jeep could keep its' weight low enough to maintain off-road capabilities. One of the best things about a Jeep is its' ability to ride over sand, mud and snow instead of sinking in like heavier full-sizes do.
Snaeper 5pts Unfortunately F1 Lotus is a "Whore" when it comes to making cars and engineering. If anyone wants a car or their expertise they pretty much hand it to them in exchange for some cash. Besides... you can always special order UK spec body panels to fit your car if you don't want a Dodge logo on it.
Snaeper 5pts Mr. Rati... the Tesla Roadster is built of the Lotus Elise and shares quite a few chassis parts with it. Using the Europa would drum down the costs of making a completely re-bodied or original car. And seeing as how the regular Europa isn't sold here, it'll look just as fresh as the Tesla with only us car guys to know the difference.
Mr.rati 5pts Cool, but why can't Chrysler come up with their own designs. Chrysler isn't the start up that Tesla is.

Their solace was action. The first thing her father Jim Carroll did that black Saturday morning was fire up his computer to see what he could learn, while Mary Beth, her mother, contacted family members. Sister Katie, who worked for an international development consulting company, began calling every number she knew in the Middle East.
In Boston before the sun rose, the Monitor assembled an ad hoc Team Jill – Marshall Ingwerson, the managing editor; David Scott, the foreign editor; and Amelia Newcomb, the deputy foreign editor. Richard Bergenheim was in Mexico taking his first vacation since becoming the paper's editor. He caught the next flight back.
For the next 82 days, they met every few hours, sometimes starting at 5:30 a.m. and often finishing the day at 10 or 11 p.m. with a conference call with Baghdad. Some of these editors had dealt before with the stress and emotion over the kidnapping – and even murder – of foreign correspondents filing for the paper. But none were truly prepared for what lay ahead.
Jill herself, isolated by Islamist insurgents, did not envision such rallies to her cause. In the weeks to come she sometimes would avoid thinking about her family, because it made her sad; when she did, she imagined them apprehensive, waiting for some sort of word from the US government. As for the Monitor, well, she was just a freelancer, and it wasn't a rich paper. She figured that following her kidnapping and the murder of her interpreter, its rotating Baghdad staff would have fled Iraq.
She was wrong.
In the first minutes after my abduction, my captors peppered me with questions in Arabic. I played dumb, fearful they would think I understood too much and kill me.
They quickly drove Adnan's Toyota onto the highways of western Baghdad and surrounding farmlands, going in circles, apparently to kill time. Their "success" was granted by God, they believed, and they issued thanks repeatedly. "Allah Akbar" they said, "God is greatest."

Scudamore calms crunch talk
10 Oct 2008 - 08:15:50
Chief executive Richard Scudamore has played down fears that Premier League clubs will be hit hard by the current turbulent financial climate.
Earlier in the week, Football Association chairman Lord Triesman issued a warning about the rising amount of debt incurred by top-flight clubs and called for a review of the domestic game's finances to be carried out.
West Ham United are the latest club to be mentioned as possible victims of the credit crunch as Iceland's second-biggest bank, Landsbanki, was placed into receivership on Tuesday.
Bjorgolfur Gudmundsson is a major shareholder in both the Hammers and Landsbanki.
But despite admitting he has concerns, Scudamore insists that Premier League clubs are well position to cope with the current economic conditions.
"Debt is neither good or bad, it is inevitable," he told Sky Sports News.
"It depends on the value of the asset the debt is against and some of our clubs are hugely valuable assets.
"It is also a product of whether you can service the debt - and that is a debate that goes on.
"I'm not saying we don't have concerns, but it is also dangerous to be alarmist in the current financial conditions.
"We have always worried. Football has always spent a little bit more than it has earned.
"But football is very sustainable. Club names are very sustainable, they don't disappear, and revenues are very sustainable.
"We are not complacent. I am not saying we won't at some time feel the wind of the consumer crunch, but generally we are not in such a bad condition."

Latest from The Spokesman-Review
Claim: Man hoarded urine to make meth
A man arrested after Spokane police found a suspected methamphetamine lab was said to be collecting his urine to use in the manufacturing of the drug.
Washington Department of Corrections probation officer Scott Wright tipped police to the suspected lab Wednesday at a home Michael Ward Baker, 54, shares with his elderly mother in the 4500 block of North Hawthorne Street, according to a search warrant.
Wright said neighbors complained about drug activity in the home and another witness said Baker collects his urine "to be recycled for use in manufacturing methamphetamine," according to the warrant.
Spokane police drug detectives joined DOC officers at the home Wednesday and found Baker staying in the garage, where meth pipes and materials to make meth were present, police said.
Baker has seven previous felony convictions, including two for drugs.
Police returned with a search warrant and seized suspected meth-making materials, as well as receipts for cold medicine, the barrel of a shotgun, a drug scale and suspected methamphetamine during the search, which occurred about 5:20 p.m. Chemicals - including sulfuric acid and hydrogen - were destroyed by the Spokane clandestine lab team.
Crumps and Blood nabbed in meth bust
Six children were taken into protective custody in Bonner County today as detectives arrested three people for manufacturing methamphetamine.
Priest River residents Leuis Mark Blood, 44; Brandon N. Crump, 33; and Shauna L. Crump, 32, also face charges of injury to a child, according to the Bonner County Sheriff's Office. The suspects are pictured clockwise, left to right.
They were arrested today after investigators searched two homes at 352 and 358 Bandy Road in southern Bonner County, east of Hoodoo Lake and Spirit Lake Cutoff Road.
The children are in the care of the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare.
Long-term meth lab busted in Blanchard
A longstanding methamphetamine was dismantled and its operator arrested recently in Blanchard, Idaho.
Wilifred J. Dechenne, 38, was "taken through a decontamination process" before being booked into the Bonner County Jail on charges of manufacturing and possession of methamphetamine.
A team from the Bonner County Sheriff's Office arrested Dechenne while executing a search warrant Thursday at noon in Blanchard.
A hazardous materials team and the Spirit Lake Fire Department assisted.
Detectives processed the scene for five hours "safely removing hazardous materials and taking evidence samples," according to a news release.
Man w/ meth lab on back knows drug well
A suspected burglar who police say had a methamphetamine lab in his backpack has been caught with the drug several times, including a September incident in which neighbors called police to report a strong smell of chemicals.
Helmut U. Borchert, 52, was not charged with a crime after police found powdery resident and meth lab remnants, include a hot plate, coffee filters and chemicals, on the floor of a home at 2409 E. Sharp about 4 a.m. on Sept. 12.
But Borchet (left, in 1999) faces meth possession charges after police arrested him at 2728 N. Cook late Saturday. He's to be arraigned next week.
According to court documents, Borchert was struggling with a Spokane police officer when another officer put him in handcuffs – then began coughing due to smoke and chemicals coming from Borchert's backpack.
Borchert told the officer he had a meth lab in the backpack and that he uses the drug for "his personal use," according to court documents. A silver coffee pot with a blueish-white powder inside was near the bag.
A hazardous materials team disposed of the chemicals.
The case is Borchert's third pending methamphetamine charge in Spokane County. He was arrested in December 2008 after a search at 717 E. Ermina turned up meth.
He's also charged with possession of meth, tampering with evidence and attempting to elude police for a Nov. 1 arrest in which police allege he threw meth and two glass jars out his car window while fleeing police.
Back in September, officers responding to a report of a strong chemical smell forced their way into an apartment after Borchert refused to open the door, according to a search warrant.
Borchert remains at Geiger on $15,000 bond.
Authorities bust 2 meth labs in 2 days
Law enforcement in Spokane County this month discovered two homemade methamphetamine labs within two days and on opposite sides of the county.
Spokane police and firefighters found the first lab Sept. 12 after someone reporting a strong smell of chemicals at 2409 E. Sharp about 4 a.m.
Officers forced their way into the basement apartment after the man inside, Helmut U. Borchert, 51, (left, in 1999) refused to open the door, according to a search warrant.
Borchert, who was not a tenant, was allowed to leave after telling police they wouldn't find meth there. Police powdery residue along with meth lab remnants like a hot plate on the floor, coffee filters and chemical samples, according to the warrant.
Borchert, who has not been charged, has four felony drug convictions and has been arrested for possession of pseudoephedrine with intent to manufacture and possession of meth.
Less than 24 hours after that search, a woman told the Spokane County Sheriff's Office that her ex-boyfriend, Jerry F. McDowell, 47, was "cooking meth" at an outbuilding behind his father's property with anhydrous ammonia stolen in Spangle, according to a search warrant.
Deputies smelled meth-making chemicals on McDowell when they arrested him on an unrelated warrant hours later on Sept. 13, leading to a raid at the outbuilding, 12509 N. Freya St.
The search revealed coffee filters, used hypodermic needles, scales, a stained hot plate, stained glassware "and several fire extinguishers that smelled strongly of ammonia," according to the warrant.
McDowell is at the Geiger Confinement Center on a charge of manufacturing a controlled substance. It's a charge he knows well.
According to this news brief from January (it's the third item), McDowell and his then-girlfriend Natalie A. Miller were arrested as they drove from the Freya Street home with eight small baggies of meth.
Detectives found a meth lab in the home along with two ounces of the drug. McDowell was already on probation for manufacturing methampethamine.
Things apparently went sour with Miller after that. She's the one who turned him into the Sheriff's Office this time, according to the search warrant.

Quickie: Who's got your favorite ma po tofu in the area, and why do you like it?
I like Szechuan Chef's version in Bellevue - fresh-tasting and lots of ma-la flavor.
Spiced, also in Bellevue, goes heaviest on the Szechuan peppercorn, but I didn't find the flavors as balanced.
Sichuanese Cuisine on Jackson in Seattle will do in a pinch but is not as good as the east-side places.

Seriously nice
Stunning with loads of flavour - just ordering my second lot now :)
28 October 2014
Great Pastry, Great pie
really good crust and good quality filling. The best ready made pie we've tried.
18 August 2014
Could be improved
Very salty pie kept me awake all night with a dry mouth, chewy small amounts of meat altough no lumps of fat which is a bonus. The pie itself was tasty but meat and a reduction in salt is needed
22 July 2014
This will be a regular in our house!
Lovely crust, nice and flaky on top and not too stodgy underneath. Plenty of beef and seasoned perfectly, no need to add any additional salt or pepper. Just like homemade, without having to make it!
02 July 2014
Won't buy again!
Having read the reviews this was a must try....OMG! what a dissapointment!.....what meat there was , was like chewing on an old rag!....but, hey ho!...loads of carrots & gravy...

North Carolina State Names (Etymology of Names)North Carolina Name Etymology and State NicknamesMiddle AtlanticNorth Carolina is a state in Southeastern United States. The state borders South Carolina and Georgia to the south, Tennessee to the west, Virginia to the north, and the Atlantic Ocean to the east. North Carolina is the 28th most extensive and the 10th most populous of the 50 United States. North Carolina nicknames
Origin of North Carolina State NameNorth Carolina named in honor of Charles I of England. In 1629, King Charles I of England "erected into a province," all the land from Albemarle Sound on the north to the St. John's River on the south, which he directed should be called Carolina. Carolina is rooted in Latin and comes from the word Caroliinus. The word Carolina is from the word Carolus, the Latin form of Charles. North Carolina NicknamesThe Old North StateIn 1629, King Charles I of England "erected into a province," all the land from Albemarle Sound on the north to the St. John's River on the south, which he directed should be called Carolina. The word Carolina is from the word Carolus, the Latin form of Charles. When Carolina was divided in 1710, the southern part was called South Carolina and the northern, or older settlement, North Carolina. From this came the nickname the "Old North State." The Tar Heel StateHistorians have recorded that the principal products during the early history of North Carolina were "tar, pitch, and turpentine." In 1862 "tar-heel" was introduced as a term of ridicule. It was during one of the fiercest battles of the War Between the States, so the story goes, that the column supporting the North Carolina troops was driven from the field. After the battle the North Carolinians, who had successfully fought it out alone, were greeted from the passing derelict regiment with the question: "Any more tar down in the Old North State, boys?" Quick as a flash came the answer: "No, not a bit, old Jeff's bought it all up." "Is that so; what is he going to do with it?" was asked. "He's going to put on you-un's heels to make you stick better in the next fight." Creecy relates that General Lee, upon hearing of the incident, said: "God bless the Tar Heel boys," and from that they took the name (Adapted from Grandfather Tales of North Carolina by R.B. Creecy and Histories of North Carolina Regiments, Vol. III, by Walter Clark). The Turpentine StateThe principal products of North Carolina in its early history were tar, pitch and turpentine. It is from the latter that this nickname is derived. Large quantities of turpentine were produced from North Carolina pine forests. First in Flight and First in FreedomThe Wright Brothers launched their first flight in North Carolina, and this has led to First In Flight, a nickname or motto which now appears on car license plates, along with First in Freedom The Land of the SkyDerived from a book, The Land of the Sky (1876), by Frances Fisher Tieran who wrote under the name Christian Reid, this nickname references the Blue Ridge and the Great Smokey Mountains of western North Carolina. This nickname, along with "The Old North State", can also be found in a line from the official state toast, The city of Asheville, North Carolina has also adopted "Land of the Sky" as its nickname. The Rip Van Winkle StateThis nickname was mentioned in C.J. Thomas's Manual of Useful Information but no explanation for it was given. We could speculate that northern visitors may have compared the mountains of North Carolina to the Catskill mountains of New York where the Rip Van Winkle legend was publicized by Washington Irving.

The etymologies of some US state names are more obvious than
others, derived from the Spanish or French tongue. Though, more than half of the US state

A customer-service miracle shows America at its best
Amid all the talk about America in decline, we must not forget our strengths.
Port Townsend, Wash.
Reports of America's decline and China's rise abound today. As a longtime China hand, I admire Beijing's amazing accomplishments and sometimes fret about America's ability to meet the challenges China's emergence poses.
I'm also reminded, sometimes at odd moments, of our nation's strengths, some of which go unremarked. They're real – and we must not take them for granted.
A recent adventure in an airport lounge brought some of America's best assets to mind.
I spend a lot of time on planes. I'm obsessive about my favorite luggage, particularly the "wheelie" suitcase that's my savior from the purgatory of baggage claim.
Traveling to Taiwan earlier this year, I had checked my bag instead of taking it on board. On arrival, its mangled handle looked like limp spaghetti. The airline didn't "cover handles."
So I took a cab to a Costco (the US-based warehouse chain) outside Taipei and bought, for a reasonable US price, a new roll-aboard.
I was instantly smitten. One of its most beguiling features was the nifty strap, with its unique clip-in fitting, for hooking a small extra bag or a computer to the wheelie.
Three months later, on some other flight, I lost the strap. A web search revealed no sign of the bag, or its "parts," and I resigned myself to a dreary future of strapless juggling.
