I am of the belief that Givens will be gone. I see it as a Johnny Damon type thing. The Pats have placed a certain $ value on Givens and/or a #2 receiver, and that another team out there will come in offereing more that he will not pass up on. That being said, I think we should look into FA to replace him at the #2 spot as the draft class is not a strong this year. I would like to see the Pats re-sign Brown and Davis, but we still need a solid #2. Here are some names: Joe Jurevicious Antonio Bryant Jabar Gaffney Rod Gardner Kevin Johnson All of these guys have had success and are around, if not bigger then Givens. Plus most should be under 3 mil per year, which is the limit I think the Pats will offer Givens. But, more then anything I am a homer and is not very up to date on players outside of NE, expect for what I see on the stat sheet. Thoughts and Suggestions? One last thing, anyone think BB will go the route he has done in the previous years and trade a late first day draft pick for a veteren WR, alla Washington, Dillon and Starks. We do have 2 3rd rounder and 2 4th rounders. We can trade on of those and we will still get something back for the compensatory picks for the FA we lost last year. Maybe not a 3rd, but maybe a 4th. I know we can't trade those picks, but it might make up for a pick already traded.
My guesses : 1 - The longterm solution route atempt will be Antonio Bryant. We may not hear about it but I bet we make him a solid offer if he makes it to UFA. 2 - The shorterm solution route attempt will be Keenan McCardell. In this case we'll use one of our top three draft chocies on a WR.
FWIW - If the Pats wanted Gardner, they could have signed him already as he is a street free agent since he was released by the Panthers before the end of their season.
I would like to see Jurevicius here. He played great for the Seahawks this season when both of their starters were injured.
I have a hard time seeing a guy like Bryant in New England. I can't see BB taking on a kid who throws punches at his coaches. The FA scene is lacking in WR talent this year, and that's the main reason it will be difficult to keep Givens.
I know what you mean. I wonder if they might fill this need via trade? I've heard that the draft doesn't have much to offer at WR either. I really hope that they bring Givens back.
McCardell would probably represent a fabulous short term solution since at age 36 he outperformed Givens by a wide margin and appears to be more durable. Unfortunately despite what some sources say he is not a FA. His contract with the Bucs when he was traded (which they were forced to do because he had held out all season) to the Chargers ran thru 2005 and was paying him around $2.5M. But in March of 2005 the Chargers signed him to a 2 year extension. I suppose they could cut him but that seems unlikely since he played in 16 games, had 70 receptions for over 900 yards, and scored 9 TD's in 2005. As BB would say, that's value. From the Chargers official website: "Keenan McCardell's arrival in San Diego was a blessing for Chargers fans. When Reche Caldwell went down with a season-ending knee injury just days before the trade deadline, Chargers General Manager A.J. Smith cut a deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to bring McCardell to San Diego in exchange for third- and sixth-round choices in the 2005 NFL Draft. His experience as a Super Bowl Champion and a two-time Pro Bowler helped the Chargers make a late-season run and clinch their first division title since 1994. On March 9, McCardell signed a two-year contract extension with the Chargers to keep him in San Diego through 2007. McCardell has a rather impressive NFL resume. With 755 career catches, he ranks 15th on the league's all-time receptions list and his 9,763 career yards ranks 25th. Keenan is a five-time 1,000-yard receiver and has 26 career 100-yard receiving games. Not bad for a guy who was a 12th-round pick and was the 45th of 46 wide receivers chosen in the 1991 NFL Draft. "
My pick is Andre Davis. He's a much better outside receiver than inside. A full offseason to get back to 100%, study the playbook, and build chemistry with #12 and he'll be a totally different receiver than he was this past season. Of course, we'd have to sign him.
SteveDog- I wouldn't say that Gardner and Johnson have had success. Gardner got released from the Panthers mid-season. I like Eric Moulds and Joe Jurevicius as replacements for Givens.
If we want a good, young WR we either pay out the nose or draft him. Signing a 26 year old really good WR is probably out of our price range. McCardell would be a 1-2 year solution while we hopefully develop a 2nd or 3rd round draft choice.
Im really not concerend for 2006. Between Bethel, Brown, Dwight, Davis, and all the guys we can bring to play alongside Branch, assuming Givens goes, I think we'll be fine. Its the long term issue that we need to be keyed in on.
As for another player to add, I would love to see Reche Caldwell added. He's shown to potentially be a great kick returner and I think that he'd been good on punt returns as well.
Looking at those options I don't know how you could not be concerned short and long term. Bethel has not proved to be more than a 5th WR and kick returner, if healthy - which he seldom is. I know Belioli likes Davis the man but in 4 years Davis the WR hasn't shown he can be more than a 3rd or 4th receiver and potential KR. Dwight and Troy are both great fallback players with value in the kicking game (and in Troy's case there is always emergency DB). But there is not a #2 on the roster, and without one Branch is too easily doubled out of the equation altogether (not to mention he has durablility issues of his own). If they indeed build Brady that fortress some of us hope for the TE's could mitigate that somewhat, but we still need a solid #2 at the least. I'll say it again, McCardell would be a nice stop gap BUT HE IS NOT A FA according to the Chargers web site and multiple other sources.
Apparently you missed the part about all the guys we can bring in. Ive never bought into the #1, #2, etc thinking. Especially in our offense. If our 2nd and 3rd leading receivers are a guy with 60 and one with 40, thats not a lot different to me than 3 with 35 a piece. Let them double whoever they want, our offense is based on Brady reading the coverage and finding the receiver. As long as we dont have slugs out there, we'll be fine. BB is not going to go into the season without a full complement of bullets in his gun at WR. We just dont know what it will look like yet, but there are lots of complementary parts already here.
I dont think the Pats go after Bryant. This is an except from "Patriot Reign" This is talking about interviewing Torrie Cox at the NFL Combine: Cox said he once got into a fight with former teammate Antonio Bryant. The coaches paid attention then, because Bryant's demeanor had turned them off the year before. "So why'd you fight him?' Cox was asked. He replied, "That mouth of his. Sometimes that mouth of his gets to much." There was laughter followed by, "Torrie, you just went up a notch in our eyes."
Lets not forget the Pats were willing to give Derek Mason 4.5 mill last year. So they will pay a reciever if they believe he is worth it.

In Zone of Enders, you'll command the orbital frame against several robotic opponents. The game features agile 3-D movement, both in the air and on land, and smart camera work that keeps your opponent in view during the most intense, furious battles. The game also comes with a playable demo of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Forget the derivative sci-fi back story: Z.O.E. is all about arcade action. Pilot your oversized Mech through dozens of encounters with other automated units all out for your blood. An element of strategy is added by the arenas you fight in, a cross between Judge Dredd's Mega City 1 and Akira 's Neo Tokyo--too much collateral damage to the local citizenry or architecture and it's game over. The graphics are astonishing: laser blasts and explosions fill the screen and no matter how many enemies you face the frame rate zips along. Like a lot of Japanese conversions, the longevity of the game is questionable, but while it lasts you will experience an adrenaline-packed arcade romp
But, in all honesty, a lot (a majority?) of UK gamers will be buying Z.O.E for the one-level demo of MGS2: Sons of Liberty. This is probably the most anticipated console game ever and will be a defining moment for the PS2--if the whole game lives up to the demo's promise then the wait will have been worth it. But if you have got Z.O.E. for the demo, make sure that you play the main game as well otherwise you will be missing out on an exhilarating if short-lived gaming experience. --Michael Bartley --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Ellie Goulding Switches To DPAâs d:facto⢠Vocal Microphone
Award-winning singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Ellie Goulding has switched to a DPA d:facto⢠Vocal Microphone after trying it for the first time at the Chime for Change concert, which took place in London in June.
Currently touring in the USA to promote her second album, Halcyon, Goulding is now using the a wireless version of the d:facto Vocal Microphone for all of her concerts.
Gouldingâs Front of House sound engineer Oz Bagnall and monitor engineer James Neale were introduced to the d:facto Vocal Microphone by Dave Kay at Adlib Audio. He recommended it as an ideal replacement for the hardwired microphone she had been using on her previous European tour. DPAâs UK distributor Sound Network was able to arrange a demo just prior to the Chime for Change concert, and Bagnall and Neale were so impressed by its performance that they bought one.
We both felt it was the best microphone for Ellie,â James Neale says. âShe is really happy with it and is now using it for all her live performances.â
Oz Bagnall adds: âDuring Ellieâs European tour we struggled with level and ambient spill on her vocal, so we used a mic that was discontinued several years ago and was only available as a hardwired version. From that point our search was on to find a modern microphone with similar rejection but hopefully with better quality sound. We tried out a lot of different microphones before demoing the DPA d:facto Vocal Microphone. Apart from sounding amazing, it was the only microphone that was able to deliver what we wanted in terms of rejection, plus it allowed us to go back to a wireless system which gives Ellie much more scope to move on stage.â
Gouldingâs first proper try out with the DPA d:facto Vocal Microphone came at the Chime For Change concert, which also featured artists such as Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Jessie J, Rita Ora and Florence and the Machine. The microphone was supplied via Adlib Audio by DPAâs UK distributor Sound Network.
âDuring the first sound check Ellie did find the change in tonality a little disconcerting because she wasnât used to it, but we persuaded her to use it for the show and in the end she was very happy with the result,â Oz Bagnall says. âAt FOH, the microphone was a huge success as I had all the level I needed and much improved audio quality and clarity. I especially like its flat response and virtually no low end proximity effect.â
Oz Bagnall demoed the DPA d:facto Vocal Microphone with a Shure wireless system, but he is now using it with his existing Sennheiser system.
He says: âAt Chime for Change our slot in the concert program put us on the side stage so that the main stage could be reset for Beyoncé. This meant that Ellie was in front of and in between the SL main and side PA hangs, which from a sound quality perspective is not an ideal position. However, thanks to the DPA d:facto Vocal Microphone, the sound we got in the stadium was great. I was so pleased that we were able to take delivery of the wireless version of the d:facto before Chime for Change â and very grateful for the help Sound Network and Adlib Audio gave us.â

Low hopes for Ballack's century
22 Nov 2010 - 16:04:38
Germany national team boss Joachim Low remains hopeful that veteran midfielder Michael Ballack will return to the fold to complete a century of international appearances.
The 34-year-old, who headed home to Germany to join Bayer Leverkusen in the summer, missed the World Cup finals earlier this year due to an ankle problem, while more recently he has been hit with a broken leg.
That has left Ballack currently stuck on 98 caps for Die Mannschaft, with Low hoping that the former Germany captain gets the chance to reach a well-deserved landmark.
He told Bild: "I hope he reaches the 100-cap mark, because Michael has been an ambassador for this country for a long time.
"He doesn't deserve to end his career like this. Michael will fight for his chance, he is not someone who gives up easily."

(Name) stared at the ceiling from her warm bed. Everything was quiet and serene. It was 9:16 A.M and the (e/c) eyed girl had just woken up. Saturday. What should I do today? she thought. Her thoughts were disrupted by the ringing of her phone.
"Guten Morgen, (Name)! Do you vant zo come sledding vith zhe awesome me?" came the voice on the other end of the phone, muffled bickering could be heard. "I mean, us?"
"Sure. Let me just get ready. What time are we going?" she asked.
"Buenos dias, chica. We are coming right now."
Stumbling out of bed (Name) rushed to the bathroom, putting the phone on loudspeaker.
"Bonjour, mon petit fleur. We are almost at your 'ouse."
Running back to her room she pulled on sweat pants and a sweatshirt. Tying her (h/c) hair in a messy ponytail she shoved it under a hat. Weird sounds were coming from the phone.
"Vhat are you doing! Give me zhe phone!"
"Non. I will talk to 'er"
"You don't need to talk, Gil. You're driving!"
"It's mein phone!"
"Amigo, watch the road."
"Oui, watch ze road."
Making herself a quick breakfast, (Name) scarfed it down. Putting on her boots, she still heard bickering. Wearing her coat, gloves, and scarf she picked up the phone.
"I'm ready." She said hearing silence at the other end.
She sighed with relief. If she wasn't ready they would have just burst into her house anyway and see her changing. Not to mention the lecture they would get from her father.
She wrote a short note so everyone would know where she was.
Ding Dong.
Opening the door, (Name) saw the infamous Bad Touch Trio.
"Are we going to the usual hill?" she asked.
"Ja/Oui/Si." they responded all together.
"Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" screamed (Name) at the top of her lungs. "I win!"
"Nien! I vent farzer." yelled Gilbert.
"Noooooooooo! I did! See! See!" she pointed vigorously at her sled.
"I vant a rematch!"
"Watch out!!!!!!!! Dios mio!" came Antonio's voice.
They both turned to see him coming straight for them. Running out of the way, they both tried to dodge other oncoming sleds.
"That was so freaking close." muttered (Name).
"Sorry, mi querida." apologized Antonio as he helped her up.
"It's ok, Toni."
The three of them began trudging up the hill dragging their sleds with them.
" 'ow was it?" implored Francis.
"Fun!" answered the Spaniard.
"I have an awesome idea! Let's all sit on zhe sleds und go down holding hands."
"Let's do it." agreed (Name).
A few moments later they were all situated on their designated sled. Francis and Antonio were sharing one, Gilbert was by himself, and (Name) on a disc.
"Ready. Get set. Go!" they shouted in unison, grabbing each other's hands.
Sliding down the hill, Francis let go of Gil's hand sending him flying over a bump in the hill, falling onto the snow. Sitting up, he saw (Name) let go of Antonio's hand, falling of her disc and crashed into him. Trying to steer themselves into another direction, Antonio and Francis failed miserably and became a part of the pile at the bottom of the hill.
"My beautiful 'air is ruined!" wailed Francis.
"No vone cares, zhe Awesome Me is covered in snow." retorted Gilbert.
"Well,the "Awesome You" needs to get up!" screeched (Name) from underneath the albino.
"That's where you were, chica." said Antonio.
"I never knew you like being ze bottom, (Name)." leered Francis perversely.
A snowball promptly found a way to his face.
"Non! My beautiful face! 'ow could you, (Name)?"
Rising from the ground and dusting herself off, she took notice of the disapproval of many faces.
"I love you guys, but sometimes you are a little too much."
"It's mein Awesomeness."
"It's my beauty."
"It's my passion."

However I am in based in Ireland. The bulk of the site users are UK or USA based. Are users seeing ads that I am not because of the likelihood that many of the advertisers are not adding Ireland to their countries list?
It seems the answer is likely yes, which is a bit disconcerting as it means I have no real idea what ads are being run at the site.
If you like, you can sticky me your website URL and I could browse through and let you know what kind of ads I see...
I'm not sure if this conclusively proves that there are regional differences, as they seem to be playing with the algorithm at the moment and that could have caused the different results.
It could also have been due to my ISP's cache.
I had a friend in the USA check it for me and she sees ads I have never seen, so it would seem the answer is that they are served in accordance with the regional settings.
She saw some that had I known they were there I would have blocked, but I won't for now anyway, they are earning too much to do so and their presence does not seem to have affected sales from our site at all.

master/media servers on vmware
For one of our new data center we are going with physical servers, so we planned for SAN transport for ESX backups. Now we need to consider the best approach if master/media are also on vm's. Also, need the best practice on sizing master/media on vm's.
Comments 2 Comments • Jump to latest comment
my recomendation is to keep the Master and Media servers in Physical hardware unless you go with very small setup.
you may end up with lot of perfrmance issues when you setup master and media in VM
see the "General guidelines for support" from the below DOC page number 2 , and also discuss about your infrastructure( size of data, number of clients, type of backup, type of storage etc) with symantec support before making a desission.
I agree with Nagalla.
Please bear in mind that only disk storage units are supported on VM media servers.
The same resource requirements for physical master and media servers will apply to virtual servers.

'The Great Gatsby' movie tie-in cover rankles some fans
(Read article summary)F. Scott Fitzgerald's 'The Great Gatsby' is experiencing huge sales in advance of Baz Luhrmann's cinematic take on the novel, but a cover featuring Luhrmann's leads doesn't appeal to some.
Print copies of F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" are selling like hotcakes these days. But even as the novel enjoys a resurgence, a new cover has some fans steamed.
While the original cover (you remember it from high school – that blue backdrop and the two huge eyes) is still available, a new version of the book is also available with a movie tie-in image. That one has much of the cast of Baz Luhrmann's upcoming adaptation – Leonardo DiCaprio as Gatsby; Carey Mulligan as his love interest Daisy; Joel Edgerton as Daisy's husband, Tom; and Tobey Maguire as narrator Nick Carraway – all gracing the book's front. Actress Isla Fisher as Myrtle Wilson and Elizabeth Debicki as tennis player Jordan appear as well.

Graphomania (from Greek γραφειν — writing,[1] and μανία — insanity), also known as scribomania, refers to an obsessive impulse to write.[2][3] When used in a specifically psychiatric context, it labels a morbid mental condition which results in writing rambling and confused statements, often degenerating into a meaningless succession of words or even nonsense and called then graphorrhea[4] (cf. hypergraphia). The term 'graphomania' has been used in early 19th century by Esquirol and later by Eugen Bleuler, becoming more or less usual [5] Graphomania is near condition to typomania - obsessiveness with seeing one's name in publication or with writing for being published, excessive symbolism or typology.[6]
Outside the psychiatric definitions of graphomania and related conditions, the word is used more broadly to label the urge and need to write excessively, whether professional or not. Max Nordau, in his attack to what he saw as degenerate art, frequently used the term 'graphomania' to label the production of the artists he condemned (most notably Richard Wagner[7] or the French symbolist poets [8])
According to Kundera, graphomania is the groundless claim, sometimes being large-scale, of being a writer:
"The irresisitable proliferation of graphomania among politicians, taxi drivers, childbearers, lovers, murderers, thieves, prostitutes, officials, doctors, and patients shows me that everyone without exception bears a potential writer within him, so that the entire human species has good reason to go down the streets and shout: 'We are all writers!'"
Kundera's feeling about graphomania may be explained by the fact that such a pejorative meaning of graphomania is actually often used in Post-Soviet block to denote foolish, unprofessional and excessive writings (not only in the form of literature, but also science), while logorrhea as a noun (with its negative, pejorative meaning) is not as often used.[10] The word "logophiliac" is used in a similar disparaging fashion by cognoscenti in the US.

Patient Advocate Foundation (PAF) and Aetna ( NYSE: AET) announced today a joint effort to help members navigate the sometimes unavoidable complexities of the health care system. Personalized information and resources offered through the Aetna Clinical Appeals Care Line help members with complicated health care cases and, most importantly, get them needed care.

Aetna members who may benefit from the services are referred as part of Aetna's appeals process. Members can access PAF through the Care Line. This dedicated phone line is staffed by professional case managers from PAF's Mission Delivery team. They use their knowledge of coverage issues, health care resources and clinical experience to independently find solutions when members face challenges. Their patient-focused approach assists members with:

Lions rest before district play
With a break in their schedule, the Rosa Fort Lions will spend the week preparing to meet an old rival.
Rosa Fort will meet Byhalia on Oct. 4 at the Lions Den for their Homecoming game and the start of district play. Head Coach Edwin Norwood anticipates it will be a game fans will want to see.
"Byhalia is a familiar opponent," Norwood said. "All of the coaches know each other and we want to beat each other. We anticipate a great, hard fought game. They are 1-3 right now. They didn't play this Friday because of weather related issues."
Meanwhile, Rosa Fort stands at 4-1 after a close battle with 6A challenger Olive Branch on Sept. 20. The Lions fell 37-18 to the "all around solid competitor."

Off to Bar Harbor, Maine, Obama ends week on an up note
Obama – and the Democrats – may well feel buoyed by better news about the Gulf oil spill, Senate passage of financial reform, and latest poll numbers for vulnerable Sen. Harry Reid. The president now gets a weekend away, in Bar Harbor, Maine.
Haraz N. Ghanbari/AP
President Obama may well feel he has earned his weekend away with the family in Bar Harbor, Maine.
A containment cap on BP's blown-out well in the Gulf of Mexico has finally stopped the gushing oil. Sweeping financial reform gained final Senate passage Thursday and is ready for Mr. Obama's signature next Wednesday. The Democrats are about to get a temporary replacement for the late Sen. Robert Byrd (D) of West Virginia, which will put in place the crucial 60th Senate vote needed to pass an extension of unemployment insurance. That vote is expected next Tuesday.
Obama was feeling so good Friday morning that he took six questions from the press (after offering "just one or two") following a statement on the capped BP well before taking off for Maine. Obama is typically fairly tight-lipped with reporters.

These obligations are gone the day Kodak files chapter 11, which seems a given under the current circumstances. After that Kodaks film business might well be profitable for a while, depending of whether they can handle the decline in movie film business. Ask Ilford how they did it. Ask Polaroid how not to do it.
At the same time Kodak spent next to zilch on research and development, which saved them a bundle and makes mathematical possibility possible
Please tell me who claimed that. I have followed most of the threads regarding Kodak but I have not read this anywhere. You'll find more folks blaming HAARP on this than people claiming what you wrote.
Bean counters. Making the impossible possible since beginning of capitalism Bernie Madoff's ponzi scheme was possible for much too long that I would trust in GAAP requirements.

Senate VA Committee Passes Amendments to Post 9/11 GI Bill
August 11, 2010
On August 5, the Senate Committee on Veterans' Affairs approved a comprehensive bill introduced by Senator Daniel Akaka (D-Hawaii) to reform the Post 9/11 GI Bill. The "Post 9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Improvements Act of 2010" (S.3447 aka Akaka's Bill) simplifies and improves many areas of the Post 9/11 bill, implemented one year ago. NACUBO, along with various veterans' groups and higher education associations, supported the changes and continues to work with the VA to ensure institutions and veterans are receiving timely and accurate payments.
Under Akaka's Bill the following changes were made:
Book Allowance. Active-duty users of the new GI Bill would be eligible for a $1,000-a-year book allowance, which is currently paid to veterans but denied to active-duty service members and their spouses using transferred benefits.
Currently the book allowance is linked to the program's housing payments. Since active-duty service members are already receiving a housing allowance or are provided housing they were considered ineligible for the book allowance. The new bill will separate book and housing payments so that both active-duty and veterans can receive the $1,000 allowance for books.
Living Stipend. Akaka's bill also would overhaul living stipends so that payments are prorated based on the number of credits taken. The current law provides a full living stipend - based on military pay grade housing allowance for the ZIP code of the institution where the student is enrolled - for those taking a course load that makes them more than a half-time student. Under Akaka's change, more part-time students would receive payments, but some taking less than a full load of courses might be paid less.
Tuition and Fees. S.3447 also eliminates the state-by-state cap and replaces it with a national average of tuition and fees. With the change, the GI Bill would cover the full cost of tuition and fees for almost everyone taking undergraduate classes at a public college or university. Those attending private schools, paying out-of-state tuition at public institutions, or enrolled in graduate or doctoral classes would be paid up to the national cap, based on the average cost of tuition and fees for full-time undergraduates at in-state rates for four-year public colleges and universities.
Additional Training. The bill would also add vocational training, flight training, on-the-job training, and apprenticeships to the types of education covered by the Post-9/11 GI Bill. Currently, coverage is limited to courses offered by a degree-granting institution.
National Guard. Akaka's Bill also gives credits toward earning benefits to National Guard and reserve members on full-time active duty; their service currently does not count. Akaka said these people were "inadvertently omitted" when Congress approved the benefits program last year.
Distance-Learning Living Stipend. The bill also provides a reduced living stipend to distance-learning students, who under current law receive the benefit only if they are taking at least one on-campus course. Those who enrolled only in distance-learning classes would receive a payment that is 50 percent of the payment for on-campus students carrying the same number of credits
Still to be determined is how to pay for the many provisions in the Akaka Bill with estimated costs seen as high but still to be calculated. Other concerns include the system for payments to institutions and the administrative burden of overpayments and refunds many insitutions are facing. NACUBO continues to monitor and work closely on these issues with the VA as progress is made.

Do parasite cleansing kits truly work? Has anyone here tried one? Do they cause side effects or other issues? Do I have to starve in order to do a parasite cleanse? Or is there a kit that can be used along with a regular diet?
I have some of the symptoms of internal parasites like bloating, fatigue and diarrhea. I've seen some pictures of worms that live in the intestines and I'm really scared that I might be suffering from one of them. Especially hookworm sounds very scary. I think I need to do a cleanse but I can't be without food for several days. I would like to continue eating normally but cleanse my system at the same time. Is this possible?

Audience Reviews for Master Harold...and the Boys
I worked on a production of this stage play in college. It is an interesting alternative to the Oscar contender The Help. It is freed a bit from its constraints as a stage play during the opening credits and by including Hally's parents as characters. Master Harold, or Hally informally, has formed friendships with Sam and Willie who work at his parents' restaurant. Sam especially has been there for most of Hally youth more than his father has. However, as a white "master" in Apartheid South Africa, Hally fluctuates between treating his friends with respect and dignity and snapping at them in the way his father and culture tell him he should. Hally struggles with who he is. I had forgotten that a major part of the story, which reveals a lot about Hally's inner being, is about how embarrassed and ashamed he is of his father. Ving Rhames, as Sam, carries himself with a regal bearing through demonstrating dance (an important symbol) and all the injustices he faces. This is a good drama.

Saturday, June 5, 2010
Nesting started last week when I pruned the heck out of the lilacs in the back, turned over the compost heap and spread it all along what I hope will be new garden beds next year, mulched, cleaned the bird bath and the bird feeders, vacuumed the porch, organized the linen closet, ripped up carpet, and painted the floor.
Today, I cleaned the basement. And when I say I basement, I mean quasi cellar.
Our house is nearly 100 years old. The foundation is stone and the floor is concrete, although clearly someone laid what looks like 1940s linoleum at some point – flooring that is now almost completely flaked off.
You get to the basement through a 4½-foot door located in the kitchen. (And yes, that's a YELLOW plastic cat door. It was my dad's idea. Swear.) Even my friend Shari – at barely 5' tall – has to duck her head. The gas meter reader isn't as fortunate. He's 6'2". My stepson, who is also over 6' tall, calls our house a death trap for tall people.
I clean in a Z pattern: southwest corner to northwest corner to southeast corner to northeast corner, which is where the second exit is located, the one that takes you up a few stairs to the outside cellar door – the one Claire likes to hop down.
With my trusty old shop vac, I sucked up a year of cobwebs and dust bunnies, and I moved luggage and boxes and chairs around to make the space more spacious and user friendly, particularly around the washer and dryer. Surprisingly I only hauled out two 30-gallon garbage bags of trash and a box that was rotting. Unfortunately IN that box were the games Scrabble and Battleship which also suffered those funky water marks and odor. I thought I'd transferred everything to plastic bins, but obviously I overlooked the game box. Dang it.
In 90 minutes, the basement was no longer scary, and if you're my height or shorter (5'5"), you can safely walk upright without getting creepy crawly sticky things in your hair.
The purge felt good, and afterwards, I celebrated with roasted Brussels sprouts and cauliflower (ate most of them before I thought to take a photo. Recipe to follow)
and a glass of Fredonia.
18 days until surgery. Think I'll tackle windows next. And maybe the Memory Box. You know the one – the thing in which you dump all your letters, homemade Mother's Day cards, ticket stubs, photos, grade school report cards, and fat pants (yup, that's where I keep the size 28 black stretch pants). It's one of the last bastions of unorganization that I need to organize. But the Memory Box is a daunting place, not only from an organizational standpoint, but an emotional one, too. It's like Pandora's Box in reverse. Most of the stuff in there is good, but some of it is not. I might need a bit more Fredonia before I open that bad boy.
Anyhoo, here's the Brussels sprouts recipe I promised. It took me nearly a year to finally make it the way I like it. I'm done experimenting!
Hope you're having a productive weekend, too. If not, I hope it's at least fun.
Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Cauliflower
Serves 2 normal-sized servings or 1 Lynn serving
5-6 oz Brussels sprouts, trimmed, cleaned and cut in fourths
8 oz cauliflower, either cut or twisted off into small bite-sized portions. I prefer to twist.
Non-stick spray
1/8 to ¼ t seasoned salt
1/8 to ¼ t other spices such as garlic powder, pepper, celery salt/powder…whatever floats your boat)
1-2 T veggie broth (any broth would work)
Place the veggies in a deep roasting pan sprayed with non-stick spray. Sprinkle the spices on, spray the veggies and mix with your hands. Roast in a 375 degree oven for 20 minutes. Pour in the broth and mix. Put back in the oven for another 20 minutes or until done the way you like it.
7 comments:
I've never heard of twisting off cauliflower...you know I have to try it now, lol! Thanks for posting the recipe - I've tried roasting cauliflower once and it didn't turn out very well.
Good going on the cleaning - that is on my list for tomorrow, along with some furniture moving. You might want to save your memory box for after the surgery when you won't be as mobile. In anticipation, maybe you should stock up on the Fredonia? Love the name - my grandmother grew up in Fredonia, Kansas!Good job with all of that cleaning and organizing. I'm a real sissy so if I had your basement I'd probably never go down there. I originally come from Southern California and almost nobody in the whole place has a basement so it is something we never grew up with.
Great recipe! Thanks for sharing it.

www.myhealthylivingthruweightcontrol.blogspot.comLynn, you are the queen of roasted veggies. Thanks for another good idea. Although I don't know if it can beat your other cauliflower recipe that I love so much.
And you have inspired me. My laundry room is like a cavern. And also very scary to walk into. A vacuum cleaner is just what I need to use out there. Thanks!
And to Shelley, if you follow Lynn's OTHER roasted cauliflower recipe, You can't go wrong. IT is the best!!As I was reading your post, a thought came to mind that it seems like when one gets one area of their life in control they start to line up others. It is all about that life style and behavior change. Sounds like you had a good day and enjoyed the video. I love old homes, it brings back memories of when I'd spend summers with my grandparents. Their home was not 100 years old, but it was the entire neighborhood of older homes. They were all different and unique vs. the cookie cutter house divisions you see today. Enjoyed the post!
ReplyDeleteI do the same before surgery.
I hope this brings you pain relief. There is this marvelous moment when post surgery you hurt less than before. Takes a while to get there, but you will. And once you've healed you will be able to get back to all the things you love doing at your size now!
I can't help but be jealous of your surgery though. I know that pain and I wish you (and I) didn't have to live with it. How you cope is remarkable. I'll be following to see how this buff n shine goes for you.

Canstar Community News - ONLINE EDITION
Many cultures, one mural
Wayfinders project represents diversity of neighbourhood
A little dose of multiculturalism is coming to a corner store near you.
Some 25 students from the Wayfinders program have begun work on a new mural featured on the side of the neighbourhood 7-Eleven at Mountain Avenue and McPhillips Street. The mural is a multicultural medley, from an eagle-headed totem pole to the grand Taj Mahal to the cherry blossom trees of Asia and the serene waters of Cambodia.
"There are so many ethnicities in this part of the city, we wanted to do something that represented an international theme," said artist Rachel O'Connor, who designed the mural and is guiding students through the painting process.
"It represents the community well."
For O'Connor, who lives in River Heights, it's her third mural in the city, and the second one being done with the Wayfinders program. Last year, O'Connor and students completed a mural depicting inspirational figures throughout history, including first Canadian Prime Minister John A. Macdonald, on the side of the 7-Eleven at Jefferson Avenue and Sheppard Street in The Maples.
That mural was such a positive experience, O'Connor said, Wayfinders invited her back to work on another.
"It gives (students) a chance to put their mark on the community," O'Connor said.
Wayfinders provides high school students in the Seven Oaks School Division with support to help them graduate high school and make the transition to post-secondary education or other training.
Arunesh Sharma, a Garden City-area student, said the mural is just one of the many summer projects he'll have a hand in as a student/staff member hired by Wayfinders for the season.
"The last time I painted was probably in middle school," joked Sharma, 17.
"I'm pretty stoked I'm not ruining anything."
Beyond brushing up on his painting skills and putting his mark on the community, Sharma said he's learning about leadership and improving his communication skills by participating in public projects like the mural.
"I'm really learning how to get involved and get younger kids involved," he said.
"It's motivational. Everyone drives by here all the time. I hope it brings a lot of people together."
The mural is being sponsored by Take Pride Winnipeg. It will be complete on July 19, O'Connor said.

Specify byte order of instrument
You configure ByteOrder to be littleEndian or bigEndian. If ByteOrder is littleEndian, then the instrument stores the first byte in the first memory address. If ByteOrder is bigEndian, then the instrument stores the last byte in the first memory address.
For example, suppose the hexadecimal value 4F52 is to be stored in instrument memory. Because this value consists of two bytes, 4F and 52, two memory locations are used. Using big-endian format, 4F is stored first in the lower storage address. Using little-endian format, 52 is stored first in the lower storage address.
Note You should configure ByteOrder to the appropriate value for your instrument before performing a read or write operation. Refer to your instrument documentation for information about the order in which it stores bytes. |
You can set this property on interface objects such as TCP/IP or GPIB. In this example, a TCP/IP object, Tobj, is set to bigEndian and you change it to littleEndian.
Tobj.ByteOrder = 'littleEndian'

Fisterra Energy And Blackstone Energy Partners Announce Financial Close For "Ventika," Mexico's Largest Wind Farm
Fisterra Energy, a company majority owned by funds managed by Blackstone (NYSE:BX), and Blackstone Energy Partners, Blackstone's energy-focused private equity business, today announced it has reached a financial closing for Ventika, Mexico's largest onshore wind farm upon completion and one of the largest wind farms in Latin America. Ventika will be located in the northeastern Mexican state of Nuevo Leon, approximately 35 miles from the United States border, and is comprised of two 126 megawatt (MW) wind farms with total capacity of 252MW. Once completed the project will alleviate significant demands on Mexico's existing power infrastructure, helping Mexico reduce pollution and CO2 emissions, and meet its target of achieving 35% renewable generation by 2025.
The $650 million project is being jointly developed by CEMEX, a global building materials company with presence in more than 50 countries, and Fisterra Energy. This investment funds the installation of 84 Acciona AW-3000 wind turbine generators, each with a hub height of 120 meters and a nominal output of 3MW per turbine. Construction of the project, which is scheduled to be completed in 2016, is expected to generate approximately 1,000 jobs and more than 2,000 additional jobs in related industries.
"With the development and construction of Ventika, we will be able to support Mexico in meeting its green energy targets. This project exemplifies the progress and positive impact that can be achieved when private capital works in partnership with government, entrepreneurs and industry." said Sean Klimczak, Senior Managing Director at Blackstone. "We look forward to being active in the Mexican power generation sector as the country continues to incentivize private investment through its ongoing energy reform."
"We are delighted to reach this important milestone and are excited to begin construction on Ventika," said Pedro Barriuso, Fisterra's Chairman and CEO. "We thank our partners, who have shown tremendous dedication to getting this project off the ground and look forward to continuing our work with them."

The American Center for Law & Justice (ACLJ) is a conservative Christian law firm based in the United States in Washington, D.C. and associated with Regent University School of Law in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The ACLJ was founded in 1990 by law school graduate and evangelical minister Pat Robertson. ACLJ generally pursues Constitutional issues and conservative Christian ideals in courts of law.[1][2][3][4] The leaders of the ACLJ also occasionally engage in public debates to present their perspective on legal and Constitutional issues.
The ACLJ arose in part as a counterweight to the more left leaning American Civil Liberties Union, an organization which Robertson has characterized generally as "hostile to traditional American values."[citation needed] The name and acronym, ACLJ, was chosen to contrast with the ACLU. It has attracted much media attention for its lawsuits, such as its campaign to oppose changes to the constitution of Kenya that, according to the group, would permit abortion and Islamic law,[5] and its attempts to block the construction of an Islamic cultural center near the former site of the World Trade Center.[6]
The ACLJ supported blocking the construction of the center through New York City's Landmarks Preservation Commission, though the ACLJ in the past has opposed efforts (or what it perceived as efforts) to block churches in the same way. In November 2010, the ACLJ asked that the U.S. Justice Department investigate the Congressional Muslim Staffer Association's weekly prayer session on Capitol Hill and halt "what appears to be a pattern of inviting Islamic extremists with ties to terrorism to participate in these events".[7]
The Chief Counsel of the American Center for Law and Justice is Jay Alan Sekulow, an attorney and a Christian adherent of Messianic Judaism. The following are some of the cases Sekulow and the Center have argued before the Supreme Court:[8]
In 1997 Jay Sekulow and Thomas Patrick Monaghan, Chief Counsel and Senior Counsel of the ACLJ, respectively, set up the European Center for Law and Justice (ECLJ) in Strasbourg as part of the ACLJ's international strategy. Sekulow serves as Chief Counsel for the ECLJ. The following year the ACLJ set up the Slavic Center for Law and Justice (SCLJ) in Moscow. Both organizations on the European mainland have a full-time staff of religious rights attorneys.[10] The ECLJ is active in the United Nations Organization and in the Council of Europe, and represents the interests of certain Christians in the Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.
The ACLJ is one of several American Christian groups that are operating throughout Africa to promote conservative Christian laws, with an emphasis on criminalizing homosexuality, including support for a bill in Uganda that would have implemented the death penalty for homosexuals.[11]
