4 Stress-Busting Moves You Can Do Anytime
Quick quiz: You're ready to scream after the end of a hectic workday, but a long list of must-do holiday tasks still looms ahead. You fight traffic to get to the mall -- where someone cuts you off to grab the last parking space. You need stress relief and you need it NOW. What's your best option?
A. Scarf down the box of chocolates you've been saving for just such an emergency.
B. Go home and melt into a hot bath.
C. Head to the day spa for a pampering massage.
D. Hit the gym and crank out 20 minutes on the treadmill.
The answer: D. We don't recommend such intensive chocolate therapy. And while massages and long soaks in the tub may feel great, exercise is the best de-stressor over the long term, experts say.

The holidays offer plenty of reasons to be stressed out and anxious -- the gifts you haven't wrapped, the pile of cookie exchange invites, the office parties. But for many, the biggest source of holiday stress is family -- the family dinner, the obligations, and the burden of family tradition. And if you're fighting clinical depression, or have had depression in the past, the holiday stress can be a trigger for more serious problems. "There's this idea that holiday gatherings with family are...

Along with the well-known physical benefits, exercise has been shown to "increase one's sense of well-being, mood state, self-esteem, stress responsivity, (and) body image, as well as decreased depression and anxiety," says Jesse Pittsley, PhD, a spokesperson for the American Society for Exercise Physiologists.
Just what is it about exercise that makes a person feel good (other than those toned abs)? And what are the best moves to do when you're feeling stressed, especially when time is at a premium? Three experts gave WebMD some answers.
The Stress Response
"The human body has evolved over the centuries. While we were designed to use our large muscles in difficult environments -- hunting, defending ourselves against enemies, enduring the harshness of weather, the problem is we don't live that way any more," says C. Eugene Walker, a professor of psychology at the University of Oklahoma. "We are very sedentary, and our problems are more mental and social rather than physical."
So when we encounter stressful situations, the result is pent-up physical reactions, says Walker, author of Learn to Relax: Proven Techniques for Reducing Stress, Tension, and Anxiety -- and Promoting Peak Performance.
"It's like driving a Ferrari in a 20 mph speed limit," says Walker. "When (we are) presented with a stressful situation, adrenaline is released into the bloodstream, our muscles get tense as we prepare to react, blood pressure is increased, and breathing becomes shallow and rapid."
"Essentially, we are stressed mentally, which doesn't require a physical response. We are stepping on the gas and the brake at the same time, producing fatigue, tension, stress, and over time, chronic diseases like heart disease."
The solution: Regular exercise.
"Basically, when we exercise, we get back to what our bodies were designed to do," says Walker. "We increase our heart rate, take in more oxygen, our blood circulates better and faster."

My first thought when I saw Dell's awesome-looking 34-inch curved monitor at CES was, "Wow, that'd be amazing for photo editing." Price tag aside, the idea of having a single screen — with its viewing angle optimized from edge-to-edge by the slight curve of the display – to replace the two monitors I have wedged next to each other in a "V" is quite appealing. However, my second thought was, "How can I profile it?" Fortunately it turns out that it is quite possible to calibrate and profile a curved monitor using Datacolor's Spyder4 hardware and software – with just a little bit of extra effort.[Read More]
Using a gray target such as the SpyderCUBE or the SpyderCHECKR 24 as a known reference for a neutral gray can be quite useful for correcting white balance issues in post processing. This is true for any shot where accurate white balance is important, but it can be particularly useful for night photography, especially for some exterior locations where there may be multiple light sources that have different color temperatures.[Read More]

Hey fellaz, I have a team of five kids and we're trying to play some ranked 5 teams. Whenever I get all five players invited the start buttom turns grey and it say I need 5 player's to start this game. Does anybody know what is happening?
Senior Member
this is just a bug. disband then reinvite everyone. also if you are playing ranked, they all have to be on the same ranked team.
Yeah we tried to change the creator of the game. Reinvited everybody and I double checked whether they all on the team, yet it didn't work. Strange. Thank you anyway
If you are playing ranked five teams then they must actually be part of a formal team (you create a team in your player profile).
If you are just getting five guys together to play you don't want to do ranked five teams.

Happy with this product. The instructions could've been clearer, but install was pretty straightforward. The intake looks and sounds great! For those interested in power, K&N is one of the few manufacturers that include a dyno map of the power gains. You will notice the overall gain is only about ~10hp at the rear wheels around 5k RPM, but the improvement from idle is much more substantial over stock. The throttle feels much more responsive.

The issue of nurseries and their role in the audit process has been discussed within the FSC System for many years without conclusion. It was therefore part of the TOR for the P&C Working Group to develop and consult a proposal for this pending issue.
The P&C Working Group agreed on a proposal for nurseries which is now embedded in the Explanatory Notes of the FSC Principles and Criteria Version 5. In order to integrate this proposal into the FSC Normative Framework this Advice has been drafted (as a follow-up process to the draft FSC-ADV-30-102).
At the next scheduled revision of the Accreditation Standard FSC-STD-20-007, this Advice (if approved) will be incorporated into the standard.

This offers maximum knock-down capabilities and internal destruction while ensuring the round does not penetrate the body, exiting and injuring someone else.

Essential swim gear
Get kitted out with professional gear Discuss this article
- Picture 1 of 2
Before hitting the water, get kitted out with professional gear.
Swim jammers look like cycling shorts, but are streamlined to help reduce resistance in the water. Go for locally made Coega jammers for value and quality (Dhs120).
Swim cap
Speedo swim caps (Dhs10) have a latex outer shell that glides through the water. The Lycra-based lining won't pull your hair, and the elastic band gives you a snug fit.
Make sure your eyewear is leak-proof and comfy. Your goggles should have anti-fog lenses and offer UV protection. Try SpeedSocket by Speedo (Dhs110), as worn by Michael Phelps.

Vitis californica x vinifera âRogerâs Red' pruning/care
Can someone tell me if/how to prune this vine? While we'd love to continue to get it's tasty little grapes (for us and the birds), I planted it for it's beauty as a focal point on a wall, not as a vinyard-production-type plant. I planted it 1 year ago near a stucko wall and strung wire for it to climb. It climbed and spread quite nicely, and was beautiful in its fall color. When I search how to prune grapes, I see vinyard-type training, like high cordon system where the vine is trained to one or two trunks. How should I prune it to keep it healthy, spreading, and beautiful(and hopefully still producing) ?
grapes only bloom on older wood (not the current seasons new growth) so you want to prune so that there is plenty of old wood to bear the fruit and lots of leaves to photosynthesize food and shade young berries from burning sun. check online or with your local agricultural extension agent for specifics for your area.
There are a lot of videos on you tube showing pruning techniques for grapes. A picture says a thousand words!
Basically, the canes that produced last years grapes will NOT give you fruit again! It's important to leave a couple canes with buds on them to form next years fruit.
They intertwine so much, it's really hard to tell, so I put ribbon ties on the fruiting canes so I know what already bore and this helps to decide what to leave and what must go. The old canes grow fat and gnarly and provide structure, and the canes that grew last year need to be pruned partly, with plenty of buds for clusters and new canes.
Inside every bud on the newer "old" dormant canes is a new cane and cluster, so be sure to leave enough buds to produce for you.

Boys Basketball: Wingers walk away with wild one
The pressure was on for Red Wing senior Luke Bryant.
With the 3rd-seeded Wingers trailing 56-55 to No. 6 Albert Lea after Dylan See-Rockers drained a 3-pointer with 13 seconds left, Bryant got to the line for a 1-and-1 with 3.5 seconds on the clock.
"Our kids came down and we tried to attack the basket," said Red Wing head coach Doug Toivonen. "The ball gets tipped and you're like 'Uh oh.' And Luke picked it up, was going to shoot it and he got fouled."

By the end of this year, pollution level in Ganga will be checked on a real-time basis by advanced water quality monitoring stations, which will be set up in three cities of Uttar Pradesh through which the river flows.
Under a World Bank-funded project, the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) is installing the water quality monitoring stations in the three cities Allahabad, Kanpur and Varanasi under the supervision of UP Pollution Control Board (UPPCB). Two such stations are being set up on Nanamau and Jajmau bridges in Kanpur, one on Shashtri bridge in Allahabad and at two other places in Varanasi.
UPPCB officials said that when these stations will report a cognizable increase in pollution level in the river during Kumbh, with a large number of people taking bath or otherwise using the river, the Irrigation Department will release water into the river to provide comparatively clean water for the holy dip.
UPPCB Chief Environmental Officer Dr Madhu Bhardwaj said these stations will not only provide date on a real-time but also the information of the pollution level in Ganga will be precise. Bhardwaj said that Central government has planned to install such stations on other tributaries of Ganga in future.
"At present, we collect samples in office hours only and take these to labs for testing. Several factors such as variations in oxygen concentration between morning and night were not monitored. Now, the new monitoring stations will give real time and accurate information of pollution level round the clock," said Radheshyam, UPPCB Regional Officer, Kanpur.
Radheshyam said the CPCB has engaged a France-based agency to install the stations that comprises a computerised machine with an internet connection. The set-up will be fixed at a place near the river. A sensor, connected with the station from one end, would remain dipped in the river to detect the level of pH, nitrate, chloride and ammonia concentrations, biochemical oxygen density and chemical oxygen density levels of the water. The entire station will be connected online to authorities of the CPCB, UPPCB and the Irrigation Department.

Which Laptop should I Choose?

Looking into buying a new Laptop as a desktop replacment and can't decide between
Toshiba Satellite L875-10G Or HP Pavilion dv7-6c54ea
Both for sale on Amazon for around £630
Want a 17" with a bit of future proofing
Any help appreciated

Technically the Toshiba "shades it", plus, as a company, I would tend to favour Toshiba, anyway, but that's just my opinion.
It does depend, a bit, on what you want to use laptop for eg games, photography, office etc. If you can give some indication, on that, it may be possible to advise further, or suggest alternatives, to consider.

Just want a decent family computer, a good all rounder that's going to last a while and let us do a bit of eveything, I've been looking for a while and always come back to the DV7, don't know why, but it was around the £800 mark and now it's down to £600. Then I read a few reviews on the Toshiba and it sounds good. I know it's a minefield with so many products on the market so I thought I'd ask people with a lot more knowledge than me.
Thanks for any advice

For all round use, there's not that much to choose, although still think the Toshiba slightly better, in general, plus, as a company, would tend to favour Toshiba, anyway.
The sound system, on the HP, is supposed to be quite good, but have heard there can be heat issues, with some dv7's, but don't know if that applies to this particular model. Check out user reviews, on Amazon, on that point.
If buying from Amazon MARKETPLACE (ie independant sellers, advertising on Amazon), make sure you check seller reviews. Some on marketplace are very good, others less so!

I think you might like this laptop: ASUS K73SD-DS51
It has a really good graphics and processor for this price and if you upgrade RAM, which will cost you only $30 - you will have an outstanding desktop replacement laptop. Adding RAM is easy and will take about 15 minutes first time.

The HP laptops chosen by my family have only lasted a couple years before something goes wrong - dvd drive failing on more than one, space bar coming off on another (which couldn't be repaired) and screen problems. I have always chosen Toshiba and have had no great problems at all. I shall keep on buying them. Just avoid Toshiba tablets esp. the new AT300 (as it is known in the UK); see my post on here re usb problems with it.

In a break with tradition, I am casting my NBA awards ballot after the 81st game, not the 82nd. It's a rarity, but this season I will not hem and haw and sleep on it until the afternoon after the final day of the season. You're welcome. I have been an official NBA postseason awards voter for nearly a decade, and it would have been longer if not for a rule at the Associated Press, where I worked from 1987-2005, forbidding
Most Improved Player Rankings: And the winner is….
This is a tough column to write. It's the last edition of the Most Improved Player Rankings, and like John Boehner at an eighth grade science fair, I'm about to lose it. I uhh…I just want to tell you all how much you mean to me. (Voice cracks) It's been another incredible year in this column space. We've talked about Ike Manfresca, the Oscars, Seinfeld, the genetic connection between twins, existentialism, John Lennon, Mars Blackmon, and un-seeing the Eastern Conference standings. We even compared every candidate to a character in
Chris Bernucca's Postseason Award Choices
Transparency is a two-way street. For years, NBA media members – echoing the sentiments of its passionate fan base – wanted more transparency from Commissioner David Stern and his executive staff. Whether it was a lottery drawing, a suspension in the playoffs or a referee scandal, folks felt like they were entitled to an explanation. And they were. Stern grudgingly came around. He arranged for the media to meet with referees prior to the season about rules changes. He allowed the media
SH Blog: Knicks waiting for 2015; Cavs want to keep Spencer Hawes
Monday night. 10 p.m. Eastern. Memphis Grizzlies. Phoenix Suns. Only one of them can make the playoffs. The Grizzlies will be coming off a game the previous night against the Lakers. If they win that game, they're a game up on the Suns. If they lose, the two teams are tied. Phoenix has to be praying the Lakers get the win, because they've lost all three games against the Grizzlies this season, and they need to claim the eighth spot
Nowitzki, Conley, Dragic, Stoudemire key for NBA Teams Chasing Final Playoff Spots
With one week left in the NBA regular season, the pressure is on for two Eastern Conference teams and four Western Conference teams fighting for the final playoff spots. Millions will intently watch what transpires over the next seven days as teams face must-win games, and the effort and intensity pick up. Each of these half-dozen teams have a player who will greatly impact the fate of their clubs the rest of the way.
With Final Push, Dragic Can Lead Suns into Playoffs, Clinch Most Improved Player
In these rankings, much like in life, you've got to be lucky to win. You can be the same exact person, with the same skill set and attitude, but if that ball doesn't bounce the right way, you don't get the recognition you deserve. Take UConn coach Kevin Ollie. If 7-foot freshman center Amida Brimah, who hasn't played more than four seasons of organized basketball in his life, doesn't complete a ridiculous three-point play with less than 25 seconds left in the first
Who is the Most Improved Player in the NCAA Tournament?
As the sun fades into the North Texas sky (not sure why we can't call it Arlington) on Saturday evening, college basketball will take center stage on the American sports landscape. Everyone except Chris Bernucca will settle in for the Final Four, where some of the NBA's future stars will duke it out in a titanic stadium not meant for basketball with everything on the line. It is a spectacle that deserves America's attention. And that is why we've decided to lend
Suns Making Madness of Their Own, Taking Over Most Improved Rankings
March is about underdogs. That's why we love it so much. Well, most of us anyway. (Can someone check Chris Bernucca for a pulse?) Just kidding, boss. It's the incredible stories like Mercer's upset of Duke, Dayton's run to the Sweet 16 and Stephen F. Austin's miraculous comeback against VCU that keep us glued to the TV screen in March, like a month-long Rob Ford press conference. There's nothing like a good underdog narrative, and year after year, the NCAA Tournament delivers with several

What Do You Think Of This Reported World Cup Of Hockey Format?
by Paul on 11/18/14 at 07:47 AM ET
Comments (5)
from Chris Johnston of Sportsnet,
The parties discussing the revamped World Cup of Hockey are prepared to make some dramatic changes to the tournament format, Sportsnet has learned.
The eight-team event is now expected to include two all-star entries along with the top six hockey nations — Canada, U.S., Sweden, Finland, Russia and Czech Republic — when it returns in September 2016, according to multiple sources.
The first all-star team is expected to feature the best players from the remaining European countries: Slovakia, Switzerland, Latvia, Germany and Slovenia, among them.
The makeup of the other mixed squad is still to be determined, although one idea being considered is bringing together all of the top young stars in the sport.
Organizers looked at staging a pre-tournament qualifier to determine the final two spots, but don't believe there is time to pull everything together. They also like the idea of doing something different than the World Cups and Canada Cups of the past and think that adding all-star teams will make for a more competitive event.

Questions For The 2014 Hockey Hall Of Fame Class
by Paul on 11/17/14 at 09:47 AM ET
Comments (0)
On Monday night, Dominik Hasek, Peter Forsberg, Rob Blake and Mike Modano will enter the Hockey Hall Of Fame as the player class of 2014. Some thoughts from them, on the threshold of their induction, via Eric Duhatschek.
My greatest career moment came ...
Dominik Hasek:
"Winning the 1998 Olympic gold medal, this is something I will never forget. After we won, we flew a charter that our president (Vaclav) Havel sent for us. We spent one night in Prague. The cheering, the people's ovation, at the airport and in the square, this is something we will appreciate for the rest of our lives. We were very focused as a team. After we beat the U.S. in the quarter-finals, we started to believe in our team, that maybe we can do something a little bit more."
Mike Modano:
"The World Cup (in 1996) and the Stanley Cup (in 1999) is like 1 and 1A. With the Stanley Cup, you're representing a city and an organization, what Dallas meant. The U.S., with the World Cup, we were painted into a corner. We didn't know what to do. We'd lost the first game in Philly so we had to go to the (Montreal) Forum to win two against Gretzky, Messier, Sakic, Lindros. You look at the Canadian lineup, it was probably the best team they ever put together. To win two in a row against those guys, we were just beside ourselves – and (coach) Ron Wilson was the catalyst for that. This'll be talked about for years, he said, kind of what Herb (Brooks) told the 1980 (Miracle on Ice) team."

Bob Nicholson On The NHL Participating In The 2018 Winter Olympics
by Paul on 11/07/14 at 02:22 PM ET
Comments (0)
from the CP at TSN,
A senior Canadian ice hockey official believes NHL players will return to the Winter Olympics, and is urging an early decision this time.
The participation of NHL players in the Olympics is contentious because of disruption to the league season and teams' concerns over injury risks.
Bob Nicholson, a vice-president of the International Ice Hockey Federation and former Hockey Canada chief, was asked Friday about the prospect of NHL players competing at the 2018 Winter Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
"The players want to go but it's very difficult for the NHL," Nicholson said. "If everyone agrees to take some and leave some on the table, I think we'll see NHL players in the future."
"You never like it to go down to the wire, because everyone loses," he added. "The sooner you decide to go, the better it will be for them and for all of the countries participating."
NHL players have participated in every Winter Olympics since 1998. Doubts have been raised about the league's participation in Pyeongchang because of, among other things, a lack of hockey tradition in Korea.

Just Like That, Korean Hockey Teams Are In The Olympics
by Paul on 09/19/14 at 08:48 AM ET
Comments (1)
from Adam Steiss of IIHF.com,
The Korean men's and women's national teams will be competing on home ice at the 2018 Olympic Winter Games in PyeonChang, following a decision by the IIHF Congress to grant the country automatic entry into the ice hockey events.
"After careful deliberation and discussions with the IOC and the Korea Ice Hockey Association (KIHA), we have decided to grant an automatic qualification to the men's and women's national teams for PyeongChang 2018," said IIHF President René Fasel.
The decision came following meetings held during the 2014 IIHF Semi-Annual Congress, where the KIHA presented a comprehensive four-year plan to intensify the development of the men's and women's teams. The plan has the backing of the IOC, the Korean government, and national sponsors, who together with the KIHA have pledged to invest over $20 million U.S. into the national team program in the leadup to the Games.

The Latest World Cup Talk
by Paul on 09/12/14 at 04:17 PM ET
Comments (0)
from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN,
The expectation back in June was that the NHL and NHL Players' Association would have some kind of World Cup announcement by the end of summer, but that's going to wait a bit longer.
Both sides have an understanding that they will wait to get more concrete details in order, including being able to commit firmly to a regular interval for the tournament, which hasn't been held since 2004 when Canada beat Finland in the final at Air Canada Centre in Toronto.
In other words, while the NHL and NHLPA could have easily announced by now that the event is returning in September 2016, they want to have much more to give than that.
What we know at this point: The World Cup is scheduled to return in September 2016, primarily anchored in Toronto, but there may also be some games in Montreal. That's still in discussion.
There likely will be eight countries in the tournament, which is the same as 2004 and 1996. There are six countries fixed: Olympic champion Canada, Russia, the United States, Sweden, Finland and the Czech Republic. The additional two teams and the manner in which they will be selected hasn't been nailed down yet.

Joshua Ho-Sang Getting The P.K. Subban Treatment From Hockey Canada
by Paul on 08/25/14 at 09:06 AM ET
Comments (5)
from Jack Todd at the Montreal Gazette,
Anyone who has followed the P.K. Subban saga from the beginning is suffering a little déja voodoo these days.
You know the story: exciting, charismatic, talented young hockey player is deemed a little too cocky by the hockey establishment, which is determined to take him down a peg or two.
The player falls into the category they call "visible minority," although no one really knows what an "invisible minority" would be. He runs his mouth a little too much for the powers that be. His stock falls well below his talent level in the draft.
Then he isn't issued an invitation to the world junior training camp by Hockey Canada, the ultimate hockey establishment.
Apart from that last bit, Joshua Ho-Sang's story is P.K. Subban all over again. Brash young star rubs hockey people the wrong way despite his talent.

The Jamaican Ice Hockey Team
by Paul on 08/23/14 at 08:30 AM ET
Comments (1)
from Paul Hunter of the Toronto Star,
Jamaica is planning its own miracle on ice.
While the island of sun-splashed beaches has as many hockey rinks as it does bobsled runs — exactly none — the goal is for Team Jamaica to compete with the world's hockey powers at a Winter Games in the next eight to 20 years.
"If we can pull this off, you're looking at an inspiring story and the idea that anything is accomplishable if you put your mind to it," says head coach Graeme Townshend, 48, the first Jamaican-born player in the NHL.
"If Jamaica can get a team in the world championships or the Olympics, that's like a miracle. It's something that's so outlandish that I think it actually might work."

The Picture Said It All
by Paul on 08/15/14 at 12:23 PM ET
Comments (1)
from E.M. Swift of Sports Illustrated,
For SI's 60th anniversary, we asked readers to vote on the most iconic cover in the magazine's history. The winner was the March 3, 1980 "Miracle on Ice" cover, which featured the U.S. hockey team's joyous celebration after its improbable victory over the Soviet Union at Lake Placid. Below is the cover story from that issue.
For millions of people, their single, lasting image of the Lake Placid Games will be the infectious joy displayed by the U.S. hockey team following its 4-3 win over the Soviet Union last Friday night. It was an Olympian moment, the kind the creators of the Games must have had in mind, one that said: Here is something that is bigger than any of you. It was bizarre, it was beautiful. Upflung sticks slowly cartwheeled into the rafters. The American players--in pairs rather than in one great glop--hugged and danced and rolled on one another (see cover).
The Soviet players, slightly in awe, it seemed, of the spectacle of their defeat, stood in a huddle near their blue line, arms propped on their sticks, and waited for the ceremonial postgame handshakes with no apparent impatience. There was no head-hanging. This was bigger, even, than the Russians.

Koreans Head To SoCal To Work On Their Hockey Game
by Paul on 08/02/14 at 08:40 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Helene Elliott of the LA Times,
A first glance, the hockey players practicing at Lakewood Ice this week looked like any team anywhere in the world.
Their drills were familiar, and so was their attentive posture when they paused to watch their coach diagram a play on a whiteboard. The difference became clear when the session ended: Players gathered in a semicircle near the boards to tap their sticks and bow to Coach Craig Johnson, a charming gesture of respect that stemmed as much from gratitude as cultural obligation.
They're members of the Korea University men's hockey team and they're in Southern California until Aug. 22 to practice, train and learn from coaches in the Ducks' development program. They hope to accelerate the improvement of their skills before the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea, but it's a tough task for a nation with a talent pool of only about 2,100.
The national team — which will be coached by former King Jim Paek and is expected to draw on the Korea University squad — is ranked 23rd in the world. Rene Fasel, president of the International Ice Hockey Federation, said this year he'd like to see Korea's team rank 18th or better before he'd consider granting it an automatic Olympic berth because he wants to avoid lopsided results in the Games.

Jim Paek Named Head Coach Of South Korea's Men's National Team
by Paul on 07/23/14 at 07:11 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Adam Steiss of IIHF.com,
The Korea Ice Hockey Association has announced Jim Paek as the new head coach of the men's national team. Paek was the first Korean-born player to play in the National Hockey League. He was drafted by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the ninth round, 170th overall, in the 1985 NHL Entry Draft.
A two-time Stanley Cup champion with the Penguins, Paek was also named as a Program Director of the national team team along with his new head coaching duties. The former defenceman will replace Byoen Sun-Wook, who coached the team for three years but resigned after Korea was relegated at the 2014 IIHF World Championship Division I Group A.
Paek will be counted on to guide Korea as it looks to gain qualification to the 2018 Winter Olympics, set to be held on home soil in PyeongChang.
"The idea of coaching the National Team in the Olympics is one of my dreams. I've always wanted to help develop Korean hockey. I've returned to Korea many times to run hockey schools and coached Korean teams travelling to Canada. What a great opportunity I have now."
Update: MLive's Peter J. Wallner confirms:

When I woke up to Leonard Nimoy, Spock, Vulcan, Wrath of Khan, and #StarTrek trending on Twitter, I knew what had happened. Now there is a sentence that would have made no sense in those years when Spock was so important to me. Leonard Nimoy was, of course, so much more than the man who brought Spock to life, but it was that character who mattered most to me.
You hear a lot of people my age and older say that. When Dax talked about Spock looking so much more attractive, she spoke for many of us nerdy young women:
Dax: I had no idea.
Sisko: What?
Dax: He's so much more handsome in person. Those eyes!
Sisko: Kirk had quite the reputation as a ladies' man.
Dax: Not him. Spock.
We loved Spock because we identified with him—we understood him, sort of—and also for the same reason so many of us would develop crushes on our professors: we wanted to be him.
Spock was part of two, conflicting worlds—human and Vulcan, emotional and logical—but belonged to neither. He was, also, an alien among aliens. These aspects of Spock's character mattered to me, as they mattered to many of us. I grew up attending an all-day gifted program that kept me apart from the kids in my neighborhood (except at recess and on the bus), and I never quite belonged with either set of kids. I acted weird, even by our geeky standards, and most of my classmates belonged to a much higher socioeconomic class. But I don't want to rehearse my history of misfithood in great detail here.
Strangeness and intelligence helped me identify with Spock, but they were not the reasons I wanted to be him. Spock, again and again, chose an unusual path. He honed his sense of logic and justice, and he trusted that sense enough to follow its dictates even when it led to choices those around him saw as flawed—overly logical, or else illogical. He joined Starfleet instead of attending the Vulcan Science Academy. He saved the Enterprise at the cost of his own life:
He stood with his accused shipmates at the end of Star Trek IV. In later years he worked, mostly in secret, for Romulan-Vulcan reunification.
At least in part because of Spock, I grew up believing in the value of following an unusual path. I may not have all of space to play that out on, but I do have this globe. I had grades that could have gotten me into just about any university, and I chose to do my undergraduate work at The Evergreen State College because I saw it as a place where learning for learning's sake was valued. I went to another hippie school for my MFA and did my PhD in another country. I have taught and explored, and written and read, without anything resembling a normal career trajectory. As for normal relationships? My boyfriend is three cats. (Maybe I'm closer to Data, in that respect.)
It would be illogical to pretend that I can predict where I will be in five or ten years, and it would be equally illogical to listen to those who would tell me that I am doing my life wrong. I have lived up to my love for Spock and will continue to do so, even though the actor who gave him body and breath is gone.
A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP

What Are You Working On (And How Are You Getting There)?

Re: What Are You Working On (And How Are You Getting There)?
My flat is in pieces right now because I am totally remodelling it. I have filled in one bedroom door and made a new entrance in a different wall, and I am putting in French doors to let much more light into the room. That has been a nightmare as the walls were wood lath and plaster, covered by another drywall wall that had been built over the top. Ended up with about 40 bags of rubble for a 1.5 x 2.5 metre hole.
I also have my kitchen and lounge floor up as I am tiling the kitchen floor and putting down a wooden floor in the lounge.
Once the new black tiled kitchen floor is in I am putting in new units that are gloss white, a new sink, a new monobloc tap and a new worktop, and moving the oven across the room which has necessitated cutting a channel through the stone floor for the electric supply.
This is all to meet a summer deadline, as I am renting this place to friends and moving away for a while
Also, somebody just gave me my first games console, a hand-me-down Xbox 360, so I am working on playing my first computer game in 20 years. Mass Effect.
So it goes.

Never been in trouble and never got hurt
Never got to struggle and never had to work
Hard for anything before, believe me
Lord, I've got it easy
I feel guilty a little, I've been giving so much
People are dying in the dark while I'm lying in the sun
And I sleep like a baby every night, it seems
I'm having the sweetest dreams.
I can say all that it seems, I got it easy
Now I'm not trying to brag about it
Just wanna say I appreciate it completely
And when I'm acting a fool you'll never cruel to me
I've got it easy, yeah yeah oh yeah
Probably isn't much fun to be alone,
Wouldn't know, 'cause I've got you here, keeping me afloat
When I'm lost you set me straight, sometimes I need it
You raise me up, babe, I got it easy.
Some people drown in here and I'm walking as only needed
I don't mind what it been on this cold rainy evening
I hover in bed, got a beautiful woman beneath me
Every night I got it easy yeah oh yeah, I got it easy
Girl, this wild open to me
But it's you that completes me
Lord, I got it easy

The Department of Social Justice will embark on a day-long inspection across the district next month to sift authorised orphanages and charitable homes from unauthorised ones. It will help them restrict the allotment of State government grant to eligible institutions.
At present, the department lacks an exhaustive data bank on orphanages and charitable homes. The drive planned for July 19 comes in the wake of the District Collector's order to serve notice to all unregistered institutions.
"The drive will see all our 23 child development protection officers and 80-odd ICDS (Integrated Child Development Services) supervisors in the district visiting all orphanages and charitable homes across the district. They will collect exhaustive information about these institutions based on which a databank will be drawn up," said Ramamurthy H, District Social Welfare Officer.
A task force to monitor the functioning of the institutions is also on the anvil. The District Collector, who is the chairman of the District Level Monitoring Committee formed to review the functioning of homes, will decide on the members of the proposed force.
As per the Orphanage and Other Charitable Homes (Supervision and Control) Act, 1960, orphanages and charitable homes are required to apply for registration from the State Board of Control of Orphanages and Other Charitable Homes.
Besides, homes for the aged, disabled, mentally retarded, and children are required to procure license under separate laws governing them. For instance, a children home should be registered under the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act.
"Operating institutions without securing these mandatory clearances is an offence. The institutions operating without requisite registration and licenses will asked to either comply with the mandatory provisions or close down. We will give advice and guidance to such institutions to take them on board," Mr. Ramamurthy said.
The district has 336 institutions receiving the State government grant and it is learned that unregistered ones may also be among them.
Fr. Vincent Naduvilaparambil, president, Ernakulam Orphanages Association, claimed the district had relatively few unauthorised institutions compared to rest of the State. He, however, admitted there may instances where "some may be operating homes as an avenue to source foreign aid".
K. Tulasi, district in-charge in the Board of Control of Orphanages and Other Charitable Homes, said a large number of well-run homes remain unregistered out of ignorance.
"Rarely are homes started with mala fide intentions. To paint all institutions black with a broad brush will be like turning a blind eye to the service they render to society," she said.

How many palms can 1 grow in a zone 8b?
im curious to how many palms & cycad 1 is growing in there yard successfully in a california type z8b & also else where to compare? & thoughts of how many 1 can grow? i would like to find some ppl in my zone especially in the High Desert of california to compare results & to find out what worked for them?
i have a list of about 75 different palm & cycads (including varieties) that i think will make it in may yard.50 of them i think have the greater chance.
currently i have 17 different palms in my yard, no cycad yet & plans to add a few more by summer end.then next spring ill add about 10 more! in the next couple of years i hope to get a place with 2 1/2 acres so i can try them all out to be a source of data & encouragement to others.
Check out this site:
They're grouping palms on the basis of having similar climate requirements. The listing makes it easier to pick which palms will grow in any area. If you know that one species will grow there, the list will give you all the other palms that will grow there as well.
Unprotected and un-coddled, not many. As you already know, it will depend on what kind of protection and water you can provide. Depending on the lengths you are willing to go, it could be an extensive list. Otherwise, quite a short list. High desert can be challenging, but I have visited fantastic gardens in Palm Desert with extensive collections of Coccothrinax, Hyphaenae, Livistona, Copernicia even, and all in the ground. What is your elevation and conditions?
very good info. thank you! its just weird how palms are cuz there rating washingtonia robusta 22*f but here in my area i no personally they saw 13*F breifly. but then again in winter were always below freezing 75% of of all nights durning winter. were a harsh zone 8b but it puts are palms to the test but they have a decent spring(except this years been like are old years,always in the 90's) great summer & fall! but winter is extreme here, thats why palms are so hard to classify! also in 2007 the palms that survived were canary & date palm, california palm, mediterranean palm, blue mexican, windmill, pindos, sagos, & a few queens! but im planning on add more to that list!
thank you!
Well I would start off with the more cold hardy palms first and a plant a few other trees like pines or live oaks. The over head canopy when they get bigger will provide a micro-climate a little bit warmer than out in open. That may make all the difference to any less cold hardy palms planted under them. Also any of your walls that are facing south are also warmer micro-climates.
Good luck :)
- US_Marine
Generally palms are more cold tolerant in the southwest than they are in the rest of the US. Probably has to do with the extra solar radiation, or maybe the drier winters. Either way, it seems like palms can really reach past their limit there which means toucan grow a lot. Here's a list from most cold hardy to least that should do well for you. Some will need extra water in your climate.
Needle palm
Sabal minor
Blue Mediterranean fan palm
Mediterranean fan palm
Mazari palm
Pindo palm
Date palm
You can definitely grow at least 30 different species and even more with protection.
Thank you all for the suggestions, looks like a canopy is going to help me achieve my maximum number of palms in my yard. I've started one with California fans,canarys,brahea edulis ,pindos & a few more I need to put in still but those are in now. But I have a long ways till it all fills out!
Thanks again, James
The mule palm is a great palm for the high desert area... I planted two last spring along with canaries and date palms. The phoenix palms are frost burned but the mule palms show no damage to speak of. I know the phoenix palms will bounce back come spring. Its just sad to see them looking so shabby. Do canary palms get more cold hardy over time as they mature?
I am also experimenting a couple of bolivian coconut palms and a phoenix reclinata. Still to early to know if they will survive our winter.
I just (sadly) moved to your zone and dragged some of my transplants up from Los Angeles. So far, the wind has been the primary factor in limiting growth (as well as trasplant shock). Butias and Trachycarpus fortunei transplanted well. Most others did not. I have a Chamaedorea radicalis that is doing well. Still too early to say how othes will do, though Jubaea looks like a good choice, too.
As far as cycads go, most Encephalartos are quite unhappy about the cold winds and look bad... but if protected from the winds, or planted under a pepper tree, most seem OK. The smaller Macrozamias are unhappy, but more from summer and constant winds than winter. Larger Macrozamias tolerate wind a bit better and none seem upset by cold yet (only gotten down to 22F so far). Most Dioons have no cold worries, but some have been pretty desicated by the hot summer winds. Zamia integrifolia is OK, but mine is growing in shade. Too cold for most of the other Zamias. Cycas panzihuensis is OK with weather so far, but again, winds make the fronds look bad. Cycas revoluta gets wind bent and a bit yellowy if too exposed, but otherwise no problems. Most of the other cycas I brought up were immediately defoliated by both summer and winter. Not tried a Ceratozamia. It seems protection from winds is the most important when it comes to the cycads.
I like the silver Med palms. And the silver weeping 'Clara' Brahea. You can get a fast palm oasis look using them under our native fan palms.
And then there's the Argentinean Trinax campestrus. Plant a few giant Trichocereus cacti from the South American high deserts..hardy to single digits at least when of size.
The key is don't waste time and money on slow and tender palms,and their deaths or slow recoverys. Use those as potted accent plants..if even worth that.
Here's my results so far:
Past 2 years been challenging but the palms that pulled through, Washingtonia filifera/ robusta ( with robusta getting defiolated last winter & this winter) Chamaerhops both green & blue perfect despite cerifera slight damage first winter. Pindos slight damage first year, nothing so far just on 1 recent transplant last year. Phoenix canary's 1st year defiolated this year doing good. Brahea edulis slight damage both years but better this year(strong palm for zone 8b) Sabal pumos slight damage. Trithrinax campestris 2 palm plant 1 had spear pull ( fully recovered & doing fine this winter) nannorrhops arabica ( Iranian silver) slight damage both winters ( seems very promising) planted out at a 1 gal. Trachycarpus fortunei slight damage 1st year none this winter. Sabal blackburniana, this 1 didn't get a fare chance I move it before last winter hit & never recovered but still alive I can't access this 1 properly. Phoenix theophrastii defiolated & spear pull 1st year ( fully recovered) this winter has some damage, canariensis seem a bit hardier but to early to till, planted theophrastii out at a 5 gal.
Ok the ones that didn't make it: Queen Palm defiolated 1st year & didn't recover by next winter, didn't make it. Trithrinax brasiliensis planted out at a 15 gal. Died 1st winter( pretty surprised with this 1, but might try again) Acoelorrhaphe wrightii died 1st winter. livistona nitida died 1st winter. Livistona's might not make it up here don't seem to take much cold but I still want to try a few more & try nitida again.
1st winter we had a hand full of low & mid 20's with are lowest being 19*f two nights in a row followed by 22*f the 3rd night with the low going up the next few days! No protection on any palm except a potting bucket over Nannorrhops, livistona nitida, acoelorrhaphe wrightii.
This winter almost the same as 1st with are lowest temp so far 20*f. But it's ben nice the past few weeks & I hope it stays this way or lease temps don't get below 22*f I shouldn't get any more damage! Winter protection I put sheets on most palms except Washingtonia's, Chamaerhops, Trachycarpus, butia's. & a bucket over nannorrhops when it rained with sheet.
Oh yea I forgot about Phoenix reclinata, 1st winter fried with the biggest trunk die& this winter fried but still alive! Strong little palm but protection is gonna be key for this 1. I have mine planted with a eculyptus tree but it's still a small tree & doesn't offer any protection yet.
Whiteside, I still wanna get my hands on a mule palm! Maybe this spring. Let me no how parajubaea does for you, which 1 you trying?

Babies and rubber bands
This video cracked me up.
Here is a link that might be useful: Babies and rubber bands
It was good to them explore. Notice that it is more fun when two participate.
Now for the downside. I"m glad there was supervision because babies can chew and choke on rubber bands.
The upside: These two were more interested in discovering what the bands could do rather than tasting them. I was amazed at how entertaining these simple bands were. When these two get older, thery are going to take apart locks and clocks and might be able to put those back together.
I loved how the one in the diaper laughed so hard, he/she fell down! They look to be about 18 months old.
I'm a cook at a child care center, and I LOVE going into the toddler room, and play and dance with the babies!!
I watched that last night, very cute, but the whole time I was giggling with them I was thinking - any baby I've ever known would have eaten one, not played with it :)
Which reminded me, years ago (she's 21 now) I had taken my niece for a walk in her stroller and we passed a field of tall grasses with lady bugs everywhere. I put one on her hand so she could watch it and before I could even react it was in her mouth. I did get it out before she swallowed.
I showed this video to my just turned 2 yr. old granddaughter (who has a 10 mo, old brother) and she was laughing out loud. She wanted me to replay many times (she's 2) and then a couple of hours later she asked to see it again. Her Mom (my daughter) was cracking up. My granddaughter loved how the one baby was laughing so hard, he/she fell over -- that happened a couple of times. I love to see babies laughing.

Actually the reason I find auto-hide scrollbars inane is because I often want to go over to the scrollbar and grab/drag the scroller. And if it's hidden I have to mouse over to it under it appears, then mouse up or down to grab it. FWIW. Super annoying.

Yes, exactly. I'm running Debian Jessie and I'm not really comfortable with binary logs. It takes decades of log practice and throws it away. For what? Search capability? Maybe there's some security benefit, honestly I don't know enough about it to comment. I'll be forwarding my logs to nice text files for the foreseeable future though, until I for one welcome my new systemd overlord.
