Over the past two years first lady Michelle Obama has showcased her hula-hooping skills, broken a world record for jumping jacks and taught us how to "Dougie" in an effort to encourage the nation's children to live healthier lives through exercise.
Today the first lady is on the move again, embarking on a three-day tour to celebrate the anniversary of her signature "Let's Move" initiative to fight childhood obesity.
In stops in Iowa, Arkansas, Texas and Florida, Michelle Obama will continue to promote healthy eating and exercise while also touting the successes of her program.
"The physical and emotional health of an entire generation and the economic health and security of our nation is at stake," the first lady said two years ago today when she launched "Let's Move."
While an estimated 17 percent of American children and adolescents are obese, the White House said the first lady has made great progress toward her goal of ending childhood obesity within a generation.
She has encouraged more than 1,500 schools to meet high standards in nutrition and fitness, partnered with nationwide chains and small grocers to expand the availability of healthful foods and convinced restaurants and food manufacturers to cut calories and offer healthier options, according to the White House.
The work, however, goes on. Today the first lady kicks off her trip in Des Moines, where she will discuss Iowa's goal to become the healthiest state in America by 2016. Later this afternoon, at Little Rock Air Force Base, Michelle Obama will announce efforts to improve the nutritional value of military food. Finally, in Fort Worth, Texas, the first lady will host a roundtable discussion with parents who are changing their families eating habits at home.
Later this week, the first lady will join forces with chefs from Bravo's "Top Chef" and the Dallas Cheerleaders to highlight school lunches in Dallas, participate in a WebMD town hall in Homestead, Fla., and discuss the work of community organizations in supporting healthy lifestyles in Longwood, Fla.
The first lady's whirlwind tour will conclude with a stop at ESPN Wide World of Sports at Walt Disney World, where she'll get moving with local kids and their families.
Michelle Obama has also been celebrating the "Let's Move" anniversary on the airwaves. She pushed Jay Leno to eat healthier foods on "The Tonight Show," challenged Ellen DeGeneres to a push-up competition on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and beat "Late Night" host Jimmy Fallon in a fitness face-off at the White House.

Long before Samsung used caricatures for their Galaxy Note promotions, I've been a big fan of the carnival-style artform. The ability to watch the action unfold before your eyes is always entertaining. So what better way to celebrate the excitement of our newly owned Google Glass than by getting a Glasses-wearing Caricature while we record the entire thing with Google Glass?
There is none. So we did it. The blow video was recorded #throughglass:
In the below video (recorded by me with a Galaxy Camera), please notice the man in red with a gold chain who enters at the 2 minue 20 second mark. He becomes intensely frustrated with his inability to throw away garbage, quickly loses his temper, chucks his trash on the ground, and huffs off. Hilarious. If you're somehow reading this, mister- you're an idiot!
What my camera didn't catch (internal storage ran out, had to stop video and insert MicroSD card) is a homeless gentlemen shoved his entire life savings of trash into the trashcan a couple minutes prior, clogging it up. I found it hard to contain my laughter during the whole thing.
Above is the beautiful final product: Steve wearing Google Glass, holding up his caricature of himself wearing Google Glass, after recording the whole thing with Google Glass. Google Glasseption celebration: success!

Like homeowners who still hadn't winterized their sprinklers during last fall's mild weather, many eastern Colorado trees were unprepared for the record-breaking cold in early November. Temperatures in Denver plunged from the high 60s to minus 14 degrees over just four days, and as a result, many trees suffered needle and bud damage that will impact tree health this year.

Before conducting this analysis on my stakeholder's need, I thought only social interaction is the important part in designing a product for teenagers with Aspergers syndrome. Also, I only tried to focus on teenagers with Aspergers syndrome as my target audience but because all of parents, NFP, school, teachers can be my users, I learned to look at things from other perspectives. In order to help teenagers with Aspergers syndrome, they need supports from all around them. Through this, I once again thought about product being low cost but have all the features and functions that able them to develop their social skills. Safety and simple design is also help to teenagers with Aspergers to focus on the product without any confusion and hesitation.

HR 38 versus Trident Warrior 38
Hi !
We (me, wife and baby daughter) are planning to do a bit of sailing from Europe to the Caribean and back again. Having looked at many, many boats and having read a lot on the subjects we are at a point were we can't decide between:
- the Hallberg Rassy 38 (for us this boat has proven itself over and over again, all calculations are perfect but room on board is suboptimal)
- Trident Warrior 38 (for us an unknown boat which does OK on the AVS score etc, has plenty of room below)
It seems dfiicult to find information about the Warrior and plenty is available on the HR obviously.
Can anyone offer advise, information in order for us to make a well thought through decision?
Many thx!

text: The afternoon sun warmed Botswana's Okavango Delta and the breeze was just stirring the leaves of the mopani trees as a group of about seven kudu bulls crossed the two-track road we were hunting about a hundred yards in front of us. "From what little I saw of the trailing bull in that bunch, he appeared to be pretty good and well worth taking another look," opined my professional hunter, Andrew Walker. "Are you ready for a walk in the woods?" With that we took up the track of the band of bulls and began a stalk for the kudu I had traveled more than 10,000 miles to find. Although the breeze was slight and the sandy footing was ideal for quiet going, the trees were just thick enough to make it nearly impossible to spot anything that wasn't moving. That, coupled with the fact the slight breeze was constantly changing direction, meant the advantage in this stalking game went to the kudu. But the Delta sand gave us a trail almost anyone could follow, and our trackers weren't just anyone, they were some of the best Africa has to offer. So we knew where the kudu had been. But our wafting scent meant the bulls knew exactly where we were, and every time we got close they moved deeper into the trees, keeping one step ahead of us. Sometimes we saw flashes of gray hide, other times we just heard them as they bolted off just out of sight. After about 45 minutes of this cat-and-mouse game, Drew, our PH, decided a new approach was in order. But I get ahead of myself ... This adventure really began the better part of 25 years ago, when Robert E Petersen, then chairman of the board, owner and founder of Petersen Publishing Company, at the time, the world's largest publisher of special-interest magazines including such titles as Motor Trend, Hot Rod, Guns & Ammo and Petersen's Hunting, took delivery of a George Honig custom rifle. Pete, which was what those of us who knew and loved him called him, had asked George to create the rifle based on a Winchester Model 70 action, sporting a full stock (Mannlicher-style) and 22-inch barrel, in .375 Holland & Holland Magnum. The little gem was topped with a Burris compact variable scope in 3X-9X. The whole package with four rounds in the magazine barely topped 9 pounds and, in my opinion, came as close to sex as wood and metal can become. George Honig, being the master gunsmith that he is, doesn't just create beautiful rifles: All of his creations must also shoot, and this little beauty was no exception. Once we got the rifle zeroed, we sat down with no less than three different brands of factory ammo and produced three-shot groups nearing the magical 1-inch mark with consistency—spectacular performance for a short-barreled big-boomer. Pete, in addition to being CEO of a major corporation, was first and foremost a firearm enthusiast—and sometimes called a gun nut—and he had this rifle built for a specific purpose: as a short, fast-handling safari rifle. The 22-inch barrel is perfect for getting in and out of a safari car, and it's handy for over-the-shoulder carry. The .375 H&H Mag., with well-placed shots, is capable of downing any animal on the planet. And the full stock, well, to him and me, it just looks sexy. All in all, it's a package with "safari" written all over it. It's a special rifle for a special job. At the time the rifle came into being, I was working for Pete as publisher of one of his magazines, Petersen's Hunting, and after playing with this little gun for the better part of a half-day, I said to him, "When you die, this rifle is mine." I'm not sure I remember his actual response, but I'm pretty certain it was something less than complimentary and a long way from confirming my eventual ownership. But, you know, I have pretty thick skin and I thought he was probably only kidding and that someday this little rifle and I would become one. As I mentioned, Pete was a dyed-in-the-wool gun nut, and over the years he nurtured his passion by accumulating one of the finest collections of firearms ever assembled. Although this rifle was a minor player in his vast collection, in terms of value or specialness, it became an important part of his hunting battery, his "go-to" rifle if a .375 was in order. To digress for just a moment, I should mention that a portion of the wonderful collection Pete put together is now on display in the Petersen Gallery, a part of the NRA National Firearms Museum in Fairfax, Va. In this special room of the museum you will be surrounded by 420 of his finest rifles, shotguns and handguns from the world's best makers, some highly engraved and inlaid with precious metals, others special in their uniqueness, most one-of-a-kind, all displayed for the pleasure of everyone, even if you are not a nutty firearm enthusiast. Included in this special display is probably the finest collection of mechanical machine guns (Gatling guns) ever put together, even the actual gun that went up San Juan Hill with Teddy Roosevelt during the Spanish-American War. If you ever find yourself in Northern Virginia, be sure to do yourself a favor and spend some time in the museum, especially the Petersen Gallery. You won't regret it, I promise. Over the next decade or so I had the pleasure of hunting with Pete in various parts of the world chasing everything from red stag to big Rocky Mountain elk and some of the biggest of Africa, where the little .375 performed just as it had that first day so many years before. In fact the last safari Pete and I took together was in Zambia where we, among other things, celebrated his 70th birthday. He used the Honig .375 H&H Mag. almost exclusively, taking a 43-inch sable, a beautiful roan, a Cape buffalo and a huge zebra stallion. It was a special safari rifle doing what it was created to do. Following that final safari, the inevitable happened and Robert E. Petersen, my boss of 35 years and my good friend, passed away. After the mourning was over, Margie Petersen, Pete's wife of 45 years, said to me, "I know you have coveted that Honig rifle of Pete's, and I think he would want you to have it." I'll never know if that is what Pete actually wanted, but I would like to think it's so; what I do know is that rifle conjures memories of the man and the good times we spent together, times as important as anything this life has given me. At the 2013 Safari Club International Hunters' convention, I found myself in the booth of Calitz Safaris, sharing the story of the Honig rifle with Johan Calitz, professional hunter supreme and owner-operator of Calitz Safaris. I had hunted with Calitz Safaris in 2006 and my wife, Elizabeth, and I had been on three photo safaris with Johan in Botswana's Okavango Delta out of his Qorokwe Camp (pronounced gil-loc-we). Johan and his crew provide a safari experience unsurpassed by any operator in all of Africa. When I explained to Johan that I wanted to take my newest rifle on one more safari in Pete's honor, and take one more animal, he suggested that we book a trip in late August as it would be the final safari in the Okavango, as the Botswana government, in all its wisdom, had decided to close the area to hunting after the 2013 season. To make the trip even sweeter, we would share the camp with my old pal Tony Makris of "Under Wild Skies" TV show fame, and his wife, Warner. Tony would be taping a few episodes for upcoming shows. Although the season was pretty well booked, if I wanted to take just one animal, Johan said he could probably come up with a kudu license, and after the hunt Elizabeth and I could spend the remainder of the trip on a photo safari. It all sounded almost too good to be true: I would be hunting one of Africa's premier animals, in arguably one of the continent's best safari areas during its final season, with a special rifle designed for just this place, in memory of a man who, through his publications and philanthropy, had done so much for hunting and guns, with some very special friends. It was a fitting tribute to the man, Botswana's Okavango Delta and this one-of-kind custom safari rifle. On Aug. 12, 2013, we were clearing customs in Maun, Botswana, and rendezvousing with Tony's TV crew, and Warner's cousin, a fellow named David Hilton, who would ride on the photo safari car with Elizabeth until I joined them after my kudu hunt. Once the bureaucrats were satisfied, we took the 20-minute hop to the Qorokwe Camp. A more inviting spot in Africa would be hard to find. The camp staff heralded our arrival with some African singing and dancing, a welcoming that everyone should experience once in their lives. I realized being back in Africa on safari is about as good as it gets!

A "no surprises" approach to maintaining your Mazda.
Every time you visit the service department of a Mazda Full Circle Service dealership you will receive something that you may not expect - a complimentary Full Circle Service Inspection and Report Card. This provides the peace-of-mind that your vehicle is performing in tip top shape.
All Full Circle dealerships are staffed by Mazda service professionals and use Genuine Mazda Parts and equipment designed specifically for your vehicle.
Maximize the Life of Your Mazda - with Routine Maintenance
"Expect To Be Inspected" - The Mazda Full Circle Report Card identifies concerns before they affect your car's performance.
"Expect To Be Reminded" - The Mazda Customer Care Service Reminder provides an honest, "no surprises" approach where we do the remembering for you.
Sent to your home, it includes simple updates about recommended service schedules, as well as the status of your tires and brakes.
Maintenance schedules are based on factory recommendations, so you can be sure your Mazda is being taken care of and performs the way you expect.
Maintaining proper tire pressure is important in preserving fuel efficiency and overall safety while driving. Visit www.safercar.gov to help you learn about what your vehicle is telling you when that funny squiggly line icon illuminates on your dash. By 2008 model year, all new Mazda vehicles will be equipped with a Tire-Pressure Monitoring System.
Please refer to your tire warranty guide for additional information.
All it takes is a few simple steps to make sure your Mazda is using fuel efficiently.
- Keep your engine well-tuned by following your Mazda's maintenance schedule.
- Make sure your tires are properly inflated. Check the vehicle's door-post sticker for appropriate tire pressure and save up to two miles per gallon.
- Have a Mazda dealer inspect your air filter. A new Genuine Mazda Air Filter can improve gas mileage by as much as 10%.
- Check your gas cap. Damaged, loose or missing caps cause 147 million gallons of gas to vaporize every year and may cause your check engine light to come on.
- We know Mazdas are fun to drive, so this one may be difficult. Take that foot off the pedal. Aggressive driving can lower gas mileage by 22% on highways and by 5% on city streets.
- Choose cruise control on the highway to keep speeds constant. Each mph over 60 can cost you around 1% in fuel economy.
- Ask the experts. Take advantage of your Mazda Dealer's Full Circle Inspection. A Mazda-trained service professional will perform a thorough, multi-point inspection to ensure your Mazda is performing at its best.
Proper installation of floor mats, carpet or all weather, is key to safe driving. Mazda recommends that only Genuine Mazda floor mats be used in your Mazda. Genuine Mazda floor mats are carefully designed for use in your specific Mazda vehicle. Non Mazda floor mats may not meet Mazda's specifications, including the way they anchor to the floor (retention pins).
For the safest use of both carpet and all weather floor mats make sure you remember the following:
- Always make sure that the floor mats are hooked onto the retention pins. Failure to secure the floor mats to these pins may result in various safety- and performance-related issues.
- NEVER overlay Genuine Mazda Accessory All Weather Floor Mats over the standard Genuine Mazda carpet floor mat (or vice versa).
- Use Genuine Mazda Parts and Accessories for the best, and safest, fit.
If you need assistance with proper installation, please contact your authorized Mazda dealer.

Wastewater Division employees in Pueblo have discovered a hole in a sewer main under Court Street between Second and Third Streets.
This discovery came last week with the help of an in-line camera. Workers determined there is risk of collapse, so repairs will be made immediately.
The work should start early tomorrow morning, March 15. The intersection at Second and Court as well as the intersection at Third and Court may be affected, and traffic will have to be diverted.
The repairs should take about two weeks to complete. Sewer lines in the area are estimated to be more than a hundred years old.

18.11.07 By Matt Yanofsky: As well documented, the World Boxing Councils heavyweight situation as been a mess for quite some time. Their full champion Oleg Maskaev has not fought since defeating the incredibly undeserving Peter Okhello by unanimous decision in December of 2006. Since then, Samuel Peter won his second eliminator in January 2007 by dominating James Toney and assuring himself a title shot at Maskaev.. Enter Vitali Klitchko, who retired as the champion in 2004 after numerous knee injuries. Klitchko announced his plans to fight again and planned to use his champion in emeritus status {meaning that since he retired the champion, he would get an immediate title shot upon approval}. Initially, it appeared that the WBC would sanction the fight between Klitchko and Oleg Maskaev. Maskaev preferred facing Klitchko since he would have earned considerably more money then fighting Peter. Peters promoter, Dino Duva sued the WBC over the ruling and after a long and confusing battle, Duva won. Maskaev was ordered to face Samuel Peter. After long negation issues, the fight was finally staged for October 6th at Madison Square Garden with the bout to be aired on Showtime. Peter was a heavy favorite and Maskaevs team was still upset over the fact he couldnt face Klitchko. On September 21st, Maskaev pulled out of the fight citing a back injury. Peter, who was still scheduled to fight, was named the interim champion by the WBC. Longtime contender Jameel Mccline ended up taking the fight. Mccline was ironically slated to face Vitali Klitchko on September 29th before Klitchko was injured. Mccline shockingly dropped Peter three times in the first three rounds before doing nothing over the next nine, while losing a unanimous decision. Peter, who escaped victorious now, holds the interim belt and a proposed February 2nd, 2008 date with Maskaev. However, the ratings situation does not end there. In addition to the whole Klitchko situation, the WBC sanctioned an eliminator between Oliver McCall and Juan Carlos Gomez with Gomez ending up the victor. By definition, the winner of the eliminator bout is supposed to be the mandated opponent for the champion. What about Vitali Klitchko? What is his raking if he elects to fight? Why does the WBC have Vladimir Virchis ranked number one if Gomez just won an eliminator? Who is going to face the winner of the fight between Oleg Maskaev and Samuel Peter? Some of these questions may be impossible to answer. This why WBC President Jose Suliman has elected to stay quiet over the issue, while offering no clarity. Until this whole situation is logically cleaned up, expect to see multiple lawsuits and further corruption in the sport of professional boxing!

Cliff Street – $250k – Harwell Hamilton Harris
I don't normally listed condos, but then again, most condos where not designed by Harwell Hamilton Harris. I would be surprised if this place last all that long on the market. I'd stop by this weekend for the open house but I'll be out in Bandera running Cactus Rose.

Got a couple of PM's and created a couple of forums, but be sure to suggest any that you don't see here
I know we have several Canadian fans here (e.g., Canada's #1 Pats Fan, CanadianPat'sFan, NovaScotiaPatsFan, JSn) but no Canada sub-forum.
How about Mexico?, football is the third most important sport in Mexico (as seen in the 49ers vs Cardinals matchup)
Maybe in the 'Outside the US' sub-forum you should just put "other countries". Then if there are enough fans from one other country to warrant a new sub-forum, one can be created and you can move their comments at that time.
Hi. Just joined the board and would love to see a sub-forum for either Europe at large or Germany specifically. I know there's alot of Pats fans in the military stationed here like me. Thanks.
Looks like you are the first from NM to post here; do you know many other Pats fans out your way? :welcome:
I didn't see a Germany forum and now that I see at least 3 others have asked for Germany before me; Am I looking in wrong place? How about GERMANY!!! Thanks in advance.

Some of Britain's most dramatic scenery is to be found in the Scottish Highlands. The sight of mighty Ben Nevis, the desolate plateau of the Cairngorms, or the imposing landscapes of Glen Coe can unleash the call of the wild in all of us. Although these landforms were largely carved by glacial activity that ended some 10,000 years ago, the rocks themselves tell of a much older history. The Highlands are merely eroded stumps of a much higher range of ancient mountains. This unit is an account of the origin and demise of that ancient mountain range, based on the geological evidence laid before us in rock exposures.
When you have studied this unit you should be able to:
- describe the geological history of the Scottish Highlands;
- give examples of igneous, metamorphic and structurally complex rocks.

Mountain building in Scotland
The unit gives a brief outline of the geological history of the Scottish Highlands. It offers the opportunity to study igneous, metamorphic and structurally complex rocks, indicating their natural settings in Scotland: the deformed rocks of the Dalradian basin, the Caledonian granites, and the Highland Border Complex. The materials are presented as a series of PDFs. Each file represents a section of the book.

Walk to Brooklyn, New York
Escape route: Brave the morning subway ride to City Hall and make a beeline for the Brooklyn Bridge's wooden footpath; once you pass under the second arch, look for the stairwell (on your left) that leads to the underpass where the Brooklyn neighborhoods of DUMBO and Brooklyn Heights meet.
Make a day of it: Discover some deep-breathing opportunities along Brooklyn's waterfront. From the Brooklyn Bridge, head south through the gardens of Cadman Plaza Park, then west past the Victorian row houses and brownstones lining Middagh Street to the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, a terraced park overlooking the East River. Can't get enough of those stunning Manhattan views? Stop for lunch at the River Café, where the highlight is a toss-up between the location (on the water—literally—facing the skyline) and the new American menu. Save room for an ice cream cone from the Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory, take a spin through Brooklyn Bridge Park's Pier 1 (one of the city's newest green spaces), and then detour through DUMBO's art galleries and boutiques. Head back to the river in time to catch the sunset at the Main Street Lot park.
Perfect ending: Mingle with the locals at DUMBO's ReBar, a former factory turned arty lounge with an extensive list of European wines by the glass and Belgian Trappist ales. When it's time to head home, walk to nearby Pier 1 and grab a water taxi back to Manhattan.—Douglas Wright

Choronzon /ˌkoʊˌroʊnˈzoʊn/ is a demon or devil that originated in writing with the 16th-century occultists Edward Kelley and John Dee within the latter's occult system of Enochian magic. In the 20th century he became an important element within the mystical system of Thelema, founded by Aleister Crowley, where he is the Dweller in the Abyss,[1][2] believed to be the last great obstacle between the adept and enlightenment. Thelemites believe that if he is met with proper preparation, then his function is to destroy the ego, which allows the adept to move beyond the Abyss of occult cosmology.
Including Crowley's spelling of the name, Choronzon, there appear to be three alternatives. Meric Casaubon states that the name is Coronzon (without an 'h') in his 'True and Faithful Relation…'. However, this is at variance with the spelling that appears in Dr. John Dee's own journals. Laycock's Enochian Dictionary gives the latter spelling as Coronzom, citing an original manuscript (Cotton XLVI Pt. I, fol. 91a) as the source for the variant.[3][4]
Otherwise known as the Demon of Dispersion, Choronzon is described by Crowley as a temporary personification of the raving and inconsistent forces that occupy the Abyss.[1][5] In this system, Choronzon is given form in evocation only so it may be mastered.
Crowley states that he and Victor Benjamin Neuburg evoked Choronzon in the Sahara Desert in December 1909.[1][6] In Crowley's account, it is unclear whether Choronzon was evoked into an empty Solomonic triangle while Crowley sat elsewhere, or whether Crowley himself was the medium into which the demon was invoked. Nearly all writers except Lawrence Sutin take him to mean the latter. In the account, Choronzon is described as changing shape, which is read variously as an account of an actual metamorphosis, a subjective impression of Neuburg's, or fabrication on Crowley's part.
The account describes the demon throwing sand over the triangle to breach it, following which it attacked Neuburg 'in the form of a naked savage', forcing him to drive it back at the point of a dagger. Crowley's account has been criticised as unreliable, as the relevant original pages are torn from the notebook in which the account was written. This, along with other inconsistencies in the manuscript, has led to speculation that Crowley embroidered the event to support his own belief system. Crowley himself claimed, in a footnote to the account in Liber 418, that "(t)he greatest precautions were taken at the time, and have since been yet further fortified, to keep silence concerning the rite of evocation." Arthur Calder-Marshall, meanwhile, asserts in The Magic of my Youth[7] that Neuburg gave a quite different account of the event, claiming that he and Crowley evoked the spirit of "a foreman builder from Ur of the Chaldees", who chose to call himself "P.472". The conversation begins when two British students ask Neuburg about a version of the story in which Crowley turned him into a zebra and sold him to a zoo. Neuburg's response in this book contradicts both the words attributed to him in Liber 418[8] and the statement of Crowley biographer Lawrence Sutin.[9]
Choronzon is deemed to be held in check by the power of the Goddess Babalon, inhabitant of Binah, the third Sephirah of the Tree of Life. Both Choronzon and the Abyss are discussed in Crowley's Confessions (ch. 66):
In much the same way that Satan has been championed by some of those who object to Christianity, Choronzon has been turned into a positive figure by some iconoclastic occultists, in particular chaos magicians who object to what they see as the stultifying and restrictive dogma of Thelema.[10][citation needed] Peter Carroll's "Mass of Choronzon"[11] is a ritual with the purpose of casting the energy of one's ego into the universe to effectuate an unknown desire.[12] This, in part, has served as an inspiration for modernised ritual effectuation based on the "333 Current". Carroll himself states in the aforementioned book, however, that Choronzon is simply the name given to the obsessional side-effects of any deluded search for a false Holy Guardian Angel, or anything which the magician would mistake for his own profound genius itself.[12]

I have tried looking at both packing.org and handgunlaw.us and can't find and appropriate answer. So here is my first post.
I will be traveling to Franklin, NC (a small town in western NC) and am trying to find the laws about carrying in national forests in North Carolina and Georgia. I am looking at a map that shows most of the western half of the state being a national forest. If I can't carry in a national forest does that as well mean while driving on an interstate highway that cuts through the forest? Any clue as to where I might find any good information?
Just trying to find out the law before getting in trouble.
Thanks to all,

The Washington Post's Philip Rucker and Rosalind Helderman: "At South Carolina GOP debate, four survivors spar; Gingrich adds host to the fray" In an electric debate here Thursday night, the four remaining Republican presidential candidates clashed sharply over who has the temperament, character and know-how to lead the party into a general election as they clamored to take advantage of the race's changing dynamic. LINK
The Wall Street Journal's Patrick O' Connor and Neil King Jr.: "Fewer Debaters, Plenty of Heat" Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich kicked off Thursday's final debate before the South Carolina primary by taking the media to task for asking a question about one of his marriages, setting the tone for a combative debate among the four remaining GOP candidates. LINK
Politico's Maggie Haberman: "South Carolina Republican debate: 6 takeaways" In less than 48 hours, Newt Gingrich will know if his good night was good enough. The former House Speaker was the standout — and early — star of Thursday's CNN-hosted Republican debate in South Carolina, the last before voting begins in the first-in-the-South primary. LINK
ABC News' Brian Ross and Rhonda Schwartz: "Exclusive: Gingrich Lacks Moral Character to Be President, Ex-Wife Says" Newt Gingrich lacks the moral character to serve as President, his second ex-wife Marianne told ABC News, saying his campaign positions on the sanctity of marriage and the importance of family values do not square with what she saw during their 18 years of marriage. In her first television interview since the 1999 divorce, to be broadcast tonight on Nightline, Marianne Gingrich, a self-described conservative Republican, said she is coming forward now so voters can know what she knows about Gingrich. LINK
ABC News' Chris Good and Elicia Dover: "Highlights From Newt Gingrich's 2010 Tax Returns" Newt Gingrich's tax returns aren't the flashiest or the most complicated, but the former House speaker pulled in quite a few dollars in 2010. Gingrich and his wife, Callista, made an adjusted gross income of $3,142,066 in 2010-most of it from one of Gingrich's companies, Gingrich Holdings, Inc., headquartered on K Street in downtown Washington, D.C. LINK
The New York Times' Jim Rutenberg and Jeff Zeleny: "Gingrich Jousts With Rivals on Matters Professional and Personal" Newt Gingrich angrily turned aside questions about his marital history at the outset of the final Republican presidential debate before the South Carolina primary, and then aggressively took on Mitt Romney and the other remaining candidates in a raucous confrontation on Thursday night about immigration, abortion, conservative credentials and electability. LINK
The Washington Times' Stephen Dinan: "Gingrich assails infidelity charges in S.C. debate" Besieged by accusations from one of his former wives of marital problems, Newt Gingrich on Thursday night fired back, blaming the press for carrying the story and calling it "trash," as he and the three remaining Republican candidates held their final debate before South Carolina's primary on Saturday. LINK
The Hills' Justin Sink and Cameron Joseph: "Gingrich's attack on the media sets feisty tone for GOP debate" A fiery attack by Newt Gingrich on the news media for raising questions about his acrimonious divorce set the tone for a bruising Republican presidential debate that featured tough critiques of the presumptive front-runners – and more gaffes for Mitt Romney. Gingrich was pressed by moderator John King to comment about recent interviews given by Gingrich's second ex-wife, Marianne, in which she said that Gingrich had requested an open relationship. LINK
The New York Daily News' Jonathan Lemire, Alison Gendar and Bill Hutchinson: "Newt Gingrich lashes out at media for reporting ex-wife's 'false' claim that he wanted an open marriage" He might be the Swinger-in-Chief. Newt Gingrich's second ex-wife dropped a bombshell Thursday, claiming the White House hopeful – now soaring in the South Carolina polls – once asked her for an open marriage. LINK
The Los Angeles Times' James Oliphant: "Romney pledges to release tax returns if he's GOP nominee" Under fire from his GOP rivals, Mitt Romney on Thursday pledged to eventually release his tax returns, but suggested they would be made public only after he had secured the presidential nomination. "I'll release my returns in April, and probably for other years as well," Romney said at the Republican debate in South Carolina, adding that he would do so if he were the nominee. LINK
The USA Today's Susan Page and Jackie Kucinich: "A fierce debate caps a rollercoaster day in Republican race" A debate that featured fierce exchanges among Republican presidential contenders Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum began with an extraordinary rebuke of another figure on stage: moderator John King of CNN. In his opening question, King asked Gingrich whether he wanted to respond to allegations by an ex-wife that he had asked her for an "open marriage" that would allow him to continue an affair he was having with a staffer.

Another new pitch for Wembley
06 Mar 2010 - 15:39:34
Wembley bosses have been forced to re-lay the troublesome pitch again following recent criticism from Manchester United, Aston Villa and England officials.
The surface has failed to sufficiently cope with recent downpours in the capital and Red Devils chief Sir Alex Ferguson believes the poor conditions may have contributed to Michael Owen's season-ending hamstring injury that forced him out of their 2-1 Carling Cup Final win against Villa last Sunday.
Despite Ferguson's concerns, the FA have played down his views but they have forked out around £90,000 for the new turf to be put down.
An FA spokesman said: "The groundstaff did very well to stage the Carling Cup, despite around 80mm of rain in the week with a further 40mm the night before the match, and they used a canopy to shield the pitch from the rain on Saturday night and on Sunday.
"They worked round the clock and could not have done more. Conditions were better ahead of the England match, but the pitch was still not good enough for our liking.
"Ultimately, it has not fared well through what has been an extremely harsh winter and it needs to be replaced.
"The stadium caters for football and non-football events, so replacing the pitch more than once a year is the reality of a multi-purpose venue."
Work is expected to start immediately and will be ready for the Johnstone's Paint Trophy final between Carlisle United and Southampton on March 28.

Lavie Tidhar's 'Osama,' 'The Weird' anthology win World Fantasy Awards
Lavie Tidhar's 'Osama' was voted the year's best fantasy novel this weekend at the World Fantasy Convention in Toronto. It won over stiff, worth competition that include Jo Walton's "Among Others," which had already won this year's Hugo and Nebula Awards; George R.R. Martin's "A Dance With Dragons," the latest installment in his "A Song of Fire and Ice" series; and Stephen King's "11/22/63," a popular and bestselling Kennedy assassination time-travel tale.
Tidhar is an Israeli-born writer who now lives in London. i09.com's Charlie Jane Anders described his novel as "a strange pulp-oriented alt history about Osama Bin Laden." »Read Full Blog Post(1)
Gaffigan's stand-up act well-received by Milwaukee crowd
Jim Gaffigan didn't have the fortune of being born here, but the native Hoosier did the next best thing and married someone who was.
Milwaukee is sort of a second home for the New York-based stand-up comic, not simply because of his family connections or because he's played annual year-end shows at the Pabst Theater since 2007. His style of stand-up - clean, soft-spoken, often deadpan, obsessive about food - seems tailor-made for Midwestern sensibilities. »Read Full Article(2)

Read The Full Review » At this week's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Garmin has announced that it will be adding Google Street View to all Navigon apps later this Spring. This new addition will allow users to get a close-up view of their destinations before they depart, letting them zoom in on target buildings or cross streets so they can more easily spot a previously unvisited locale.A specific launch date for the update was not given, but it should be arriving soon. This upgrade is a godsend to people like me who really want a street-level view of unvisited locations. It's just so much easier, in my opinion, to find the place you're looking for when you've seen the building, know what side of the street it is on and can see what other buildings and landmarks are nearby. This addition makes an already impressive GPS app even better, and it's getting really hard for just about everyone else out there to compete with Garmin's Navigon offerings. Know those corny signs that are up in just about any tourist-heavy area which show people which direction and how far another tourist-heavy attraction/city/state is? Something like an arrow sticking out of the ground in Maine, pointing West and proudly displaying "Hollywood: 'X' miles." Well Direction Known does something similar, only with customizable lists of things to point at and a readout that updates and syncs in real-time as the user moves around. As someone living in a major metropolitan center, I can't exactly walk a straight line to wherever it is I need to go. However, anyone who's ever tried navigating anywhere on foot ever knows that even having a general idea of where their destination is can be a huge help. Of course, there's also the option to use the device's built-in GPS to check the map. Direction Known does have plenty of practical uses, including finding a friend at the park, trying to figure out which direction to start walking in after getting off the subway or finding one's way out of the wilderness (if there's a signal). It also has some non-practical uses, like showing the kids how much farther until they reach grandma and grandpa's house or letting said grandparents watch their family getting closer. It can also be used for purely nostalgic purposes, such as having an arrow that always points to one's childhood home. Locations can be saved in separate groups, keeping things from getting too cluttered and giving users more control over what they're trying to find. Upon first glance, Direction Known might look like nothing more than a colorful compass, but it can be much more than that. It can be incredibly helpful in the right situation, and it can illicit a nostalgic smile in others. Ultimately it's up to the individual user to decide. Regardless of how it's used, it's available in the App Store right now.

Read The Full Review » While there are hundreds of travel and city guide apps for iPhone, it looks like mTrip will blow them away with its unique spin on the traditional tour guide app. While mTrip offers users the default sightseeing tips and direction tools for a location, it goes one step further helping users plan their trip itinerary. Better than that, the app can even create an itinerary for you based on your preferences, trip duration and accommodations. Daily schedules can be edited at the user's discretion and the app is even intelligent enough to list attractions based on their opening hours and proximity to the user. Once you arrive at your destination you can make use of augmented reality to see where sites are in relation to your current location as well as point out restaurants, bars, hotels and other points of interest. Travelers can also swap tips on locations via the app by adding notes and viewing those of others. All of these features make mTrip a very useful and fully featured tool but its ability to function offline is the real jewel in its crown. Your itinerary can be customized and reworked without an internet connection and augmented reality also functions in the absence of a network. Pretty much the only feature that requires the internet is the fun little postcard tool that allows users to send messages to friends from their vacation via email or Facebook. mTrip travel guides are currently available for London, Paris, Amsterdan, Berlin, Rome, Barcelona, New York, San Francisco and Chicago in a choice of five languages. Many more locations are also planned with more information available here.

'Steel Curtain II' vs. a big offense: a contest of styles
Super Bowl XLIII will put on display how football is being redefined in front of fans' eyes.
Brian Snyder/Reuters
Tampa, Fla.
Once upon a time, in the lean war years when bombs fell on London and Berlin, two American originals – the Cardinals and Steelers – joined forces.
They were the Card-Pitts. They were so bad the rest of the league called them "The Carpets."
This Sunday, that ill-fated experiment comes full circle, pitting two teams with an interconnected past against each other in Super Bowl XLIII at Tampa's Raymond James Stadium.
These days, the franchises have opposing game-time philosophies. The Cards, their offense led by former grocery-store stock boy Kurt Warner, face the Steel Curtain II defense and its wild-haired Greek Orthodox Samoan safety, Troy Polamalu.
The game will not only arc across history and put into crushing motion a mix of regular guys-turned-gridiron mavericks. It will also delve into the heart of a game that is being redefined in front of fans' eyes.
The adage that defense wins championships dies hard, but today's champions are more likely to rely on a balanced game plan built as much on offensive grit as defensive formations.
"The main story line is the dynamic offense of the Cardinals versus the defense of the Steelers and how these teams have built their squads," says Jeffrey Ohlmann, a University of Iowa researcher who does quantitative analysis of NFL teams.

I swore that if the AK-47 ever dropped to a reasonable price, I'd get one. One week ago, it happened! Got my new baby online. After shipping and FFL transfer fee it was $570!
Took it straight to the range, squirted some rem oil onto the rails and threw 60 rounds of 7.62x39 down range. It felt awesome! And very similar to my already owned AR-15 as far as recoil. It's a much simpler gun but extremely satisfying to shoot. Pretty to boot :)
I'm a happy camper!

Not sure if any of you have heard of it, but based on the CyBookie craze on this site, I'm guessing it'd interest quite a few people. It's a site where you can bet on sports using play money. They give you $.10 to start. If you go all in and lose, you just get $.10 again to bet with. If you're able to win enough that your balance gets to $10 or higher, you can cash out for real money. They're able to cover it because the advertising revenue brings in more than what its users cash out for. CentSports.com
Sweet! That's my type of gambling. No risk

09/30/2014Process Filtration Technology: Making Informed Decisions
Solid-liquid separation is an instrumental part of chemical processing. To separate the solid particles, filter media made of textile or metallic materials and of composite materials are used as the basis for the filter cake. Often there will also be a washing process to improve the purity of the filter cake or to increase the yield of the liquid phase. Solid-liquid separation can be carried out in continuous or batch operation. There are many factors for selecting the right process filtration system for your specific application. This white paper reviews methods for identifying the right process filtration technology for your application and highlights case studies illustrating the methods discussed.

Issues related to physical properties, process parameters, electronic features and interconnections can all affect the flow of liquids and gases. Often working around the clock to process, transfer, and store sometimes hazardous and corrosive chemicals, processors must tackle issues related to physical properties and process parameters. In this Chemical Processing Flow eHandbook, we take a look at what it takes for chemical processors to master flow challenges for several types of materials with vastly different physical properties including:
- How to increase process availability - coriolis mass flow meters provide reliable indication of gas entrainment
- Overcoming the challenges of changing gas composition - new technology addresses need for more accurate and efficient biogas measuring
- How to ensure proper control of parallel flow paths demands care
- Case Study: Speed Pipe Installation - pipe-joining system eliminates need to weld or thread connections

In this Special Report, we review compressed air and provide insights on how to understand equipment and identify potential areas for savings.
04/07/2010Spray Gas Quench Design Considerations
The use of spray nozzles to rapidly cool or quench gas streams is an essential application in many industrial processes, such as chemical reaction vessels, incineration, and power plant absorber gas inlet. An optimized spray quench design requires engineering analysis of the operating environment, spray nozzle performance and process reliability. This technical paper describes the design considerations for spray gas quench systems such as nozzle selection, process control, system configuration and reliability. Application of this knowledge can result in a gas quench system that operates efficiently and reliably with reduced vessel size, reduced atomization energy consumption, and minimized downtime, to achieve capital and operational cost savings for your process.
09/16/2009Design Considerations for High Liquid Rate Tray Applications
Except for a few odd services, high liquid rate applications are typically the domain of either trays or random packings. Aside from the distributors, random packing designs are rather straightforward with the designer choosing the proper size to accommodate the fluid flow rates and achieve the desired efficiency. Trays, on the other hand, have a large variety of adjustable parameters and can be especially complex, especially when designed for high liquid rate applications.
09/17/2007Removing Liquid From Gas
Liquid entrainment in a gas stream can be a disturbance in many industrial processes. In natural-gas processing, higher-order hydrocarbons, water or impurities have to be separated from the main methane stream. Upstream of gas compressors, droplets that can damage the impellers, have to be removed. With the recently acquired Knitmesh technology and the strategic alliance with Shell Global Solutions, Sulzer Chemtech can supply a broad portfolio of advanced, tailor-made systems for gas/liquid separation to customers in all industries.
