Pontiac G6 Caliper Covers
Your G6 is great for the journeys you need to undertake every day, but it can even provide you with a little fun when you want it. A vehicle like this should look stunning every time it leaves the garage, since you know people are making assumptions based on what they see, but it's difficult when you only rely on cleaning it. What can make the big differences you seek is aftermarket accessories, and we have a wide range of them to suit your vehicle including Pontiac G6 caliper covers!
To suit the existing look of your vehicle we can even offer a number of different styles, logos and colors, so you can find the perfect addition, and they're made by some of the best brands (MGP) to ensure you get the quality you deserve. With a set of caliper covers installed on your vehicle you will enjoy the good looks but also the smaller amount of brake dust being able to reach your wheels, so they're easier to clean. With all of these features and benefits you might expect to pay a lot, but we even offer them at fantastic prices to give you value for money!

Hi, I purchased these covers back in May, and I just managed to get them put on last month, since I had to wait for my new wheels. I have 2 issues with the covers. The rear covers make a loud grinding sound when the wheel is turning, and for the front covers, there is a slight clicking sound which is annoying.

Cirebon Kasepuhan, Indonesia
BRIEF HISTORY: A state founded in 1478 as a result of the fall of the Mojopahit Empire, split into 4 lineages in 1662 with their own land and palace (Kraton) in Cirebon: 1° Kraton Kasepuhan with the title of Sultan Sepuh from 1699, 2° Kraton Kanoman with the title of Sultan Kanoman or Sultan Anom from 1662, 3° Kraton Kacirebonan with the title of Pangeran Kacirebonan from 1710 and 4° Kraton Keprabonan (sometimes spelled Kaprobonan) with the title of Panembahan from 1694, until 1773. There was a rolling succession where the head of the Kraton Kanoman succeeded to the Kraton Kasepuhan ruler, the Kraton Kacirebonan to the Kraton Kanoman, etc. In 1773, the extinct Kraton Keprabonan 4th line's lands and rights were divided between the Sultan Sepuh of the Kraton Kasepuhan 1st line and the Sultan Kanoman of the Kraton Kanoman 2nd line; although there is still a Cirebon Keprabonan line. The royalty was downgraded to regencies by the Dutch in 1809 and revived in 2002 when the Sultan of Cirebon Kasepuhan advocated the creation of a new Cirebon province. On the island of Java (Jawa Barat). Also spelled Tjirebon.

Q&A Friday #112: What Do You Think The Effect Of Statistical Analysis Will Be On Punditry In Upcoming Elections?
Question: Oooh! What do you think the effect of statistical analysis – a la Sam Wang at PEC or that Nate guy that everybody loves – on punditry in upcoming elections? — MightyMooMan
Nate Silver's % chance of o winning on his blog is actually the chance he'll be called a genius if Obama wins & an idiot if he loses.
— John Hawkins (@johnhawkinsrwn) November 2, 2012
For all of the talk about Nate Silver's model and "statistical analysis," all he essentially did was look at the state polls and applied the Monte Carlo method to it. In other words, Nate Silver was right because the state polls correctly predicted the winners of the races. Had Gallup and Rasmussen turned out to be the ones that were right while the other pollsters were overestimating the support Democrats were drawing, Silver would have been wrong and everyone would be talking about what an idiot he is today.
As to what effect it will have, it just means that everyone will probably take the state polling data at face value in 2014. As long as it keeps working, everyone will essentially come up with the same results that Nate Silver does, without using any "statistical analysis" of consequence, just by looking at the polls. If and when the state polls are wrong again, Nate Silver and everyone else will turn out to be wrong, too.

Schluter Designline Profile Question
I'm planning on using a Schluter Designline profile horizontally between tiles in my shower. I will not be using bullnose or a vertical profile piece where the tiles end. Instead, I'll be applying grout between the wall and back edge of the tiles. Just not sure how to handle the spots where the designline profile will be showing.
Here's a photo of the profile:
Here's an example of how I plan to use it:
There is not enough detail in the second photo for me to figure out how the designline profile was finished at the shower edges.
You can treat that the same as the tile. You can bury your cut edges in the corner and have the factory edge as the show end.
If the factory edge is excessively sharp or has a bit of a burr on it from the shearing process, you can take that down with a delicate application of a hand file. If you have to work it at all, work it as little as possible so the sheen on the factory end matches the sheen on the show face.
If you want to get fancy you could miter the end and return it to the wall, but it'd be a mighty small return. I'd advise against that unless the grout behind the strip really bothers you. It shouldn't as you'll have grout showing behind the tile. If you do a mitered return, don't overheat the metal or you can discolor it.
If I go with the non-miter solution, it seems like I would have a thick exposed section of grout behind the profile. The grout would run for about 1/2" which is the width of the profile, and it would come out from the wall about 1/2". At the tiles, it would only come out from the wall 1/4". If you think this will look fine, I will do it this way.
If you have any close-up photos that show what this would look like, please post.
First, I owe you an apology.
I didn't catch that it was "U" shaped, or hollow, I thought it was a solid bar.
Hopefully this will work.
If you can, nip two 45 degree cuts in the top and bottom flanges of the material. The two 45 degree cuts on each flange will met to form a 90 degree angle with the point of the angle right at the back side of the 1" face.
Have them meet a tad over 1/4" from the end of the trim piece, say 5/16ths-inch from the end of the trim piece. You'll lose a little metal when you make the bend. So the "point" of the two 45s will meet about 5/16ths of an inch from the end of your trim piece.
Now grab the face with a pair of marr-free pliers and bend the face back to form a 1/4" return.
I wrote "1/4-inch return", but you can make the return as long as you need. If you tile is 1/4" thick and your thinset is 1/8" thick and you want no thinset to show, then you'll need a 3/8" return. Add 1/16th and make your cuts 7/16ths from the end of the trim piece, again, planning on losing about 1/16" of metal in the radius of the bend.
If you want the return to be the same size at the tile is thick, then make the cuts 5/16th" from the end, when you bend it you'll have about a 1/4" return.
Make that return bend, THEN cut your trim piece to length on the end that'll be at the wall-wall corner. That way if you mess it up you have suitable length to try again.
See my very rudimentary schematic below. This is sort of what I'm talking about. Try to imagine that you're looking at the piece from above as it'll be installed in the wall. The "X"s are the flange. The show face of the material is right below the X's, it's the underline.
The two slashes show the two 45-degree cuts that form a 90 degree angle, the material between the slashes is removed.
Now fold back the part made up of the three X's 90 degrees so the two slashes come together and it'll resemble something like this:
I hope that makes sense!
Makes perfect sense. I will give this a shot -- on a scrap piece first to get some practice.
At the inside corners, should I butt the two trim pieces up against one another? Or, do I leave a gap between them and fill the gap with caulk just as I would fill the gap between tiles at the inside corners?
By the way, no apology needed.

OpenLogic Backs Linux On Windows Azure With SLA 46
from the odd-couple dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
It is a modified version of the NT kernel.
Except this really has nothing to do with open source. MS offers a computing cloud, and they offer various options on the computing cloud because they want to make money. Some of those things happen to be open source.
MS open sourcing one of their major product lines would be open source news. This is 'cloud provider has wide variety of services'. It's not going to make open source OS's mainstream on the desktop, and there's a wide array of open source software for windows. Azure is (for the moment) an enterprise product, for enterprise users, and you're right, they've been readily using open source for some things since the 90's.
Microsoft never got much past 50% of the server market, and I think they're down around 40% these days, depending on how you count it. Considering azure is basically a giant platform service they couldn't aim to be a serious single solutions provider business and only host windows.
Just reading wikipedia's description: " CentOS exists to provide a free enterprise class computing platform and strives to maintain 100% binary compatibility with its upstream source, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)." - Why not just use Red Hat directly?
Because that way they don't have to pay Red Hat anything.
Single tasking: Just Say No.

Good move man, trade it all you can, but dont marry it :) smart trading there
I think will just trade it ever day and clink the cash register. Its money either way, not going to hold over week end. Just took my profit and ran. I think it is going higher, but who knows. Will buy back in after open monday and trade it. Good luck all.
Maybe, but I am posting the info avail, if there is more current for sure info avail please post me a link, maybe I will change my opinion. I am neither short nor long as this point.
Maybe I am but if u thing it doesn't it 20 ur crazy eps will be better than what the est r
I think you're putting a lot of weight into estimates that were made before most investors fully realized the relationship between Facebook and Zynga.
Estimates: 0.055 | 0.027 | -0.050 (High | Mean | Low)
There I copied and pasted the earnings from etrade summary page and yahoo finance page look at them if dont believe me. I am posting only facts. Pump it how you want, believe what you want, put your money where you want, but dont ask me if I am on crack, dont try to play like what I am saying is not true. The facts are there, look at them.
Here is my take on zynga. They are tied in with facebook which has 800 million users and growning fast. If they can get 5.00 per year per user, they will make a bundle. What is your take please...
So you expect them to make more than facebook per user? Facebook only makes 4.xx. Not going to happen, This will tank and tank hard EPS is .07 or below per year for this thing
I agree were looking at a 30.00 to 60.00 stock 15.00 is cheap for were this is headed

To support efficient multimedia retrieval, the multimedia server usually store a large volume of multimedia data in a compressed form, such as in the MPEG format for video and audio data. However, the variable bit rate (VBR) of MPEG movies is a serious problem for a system supporting video-on-demand services (VOD). We propose a smoothing by block adjustment (SBA) scheme to deal with the VBR problem based on the physical storage of multimedia data by a block. If we reduce the frequency of rate adjustment for all movies in a VOD system, we can eliminate much of the useless overhead of the server or network resource adjustment in a VOD system. We show that our SBA scheme can solve VBR problems without incurring much complexity and efficiently reduce frequent rate adjustment for a movie playback

Hi Pleasancoder! I noticed you nominated HTTP cookie at WP:FAR. Since this article is not currently an FA, it can't be reviewed there; it could be reviewed at WP:FAC, but per the instructions there the article would have to meet the FA criteria and you would need to consult the primary contributor prior to nominating.

I'm afraid that this article is a long way from meeting the GA criteria in my opinion, most obviously because of its lack of referencing, but nevertheless I've placed the review on hold to allow you time to work on it. You can find the review here. Malleus Fatuorum 22:21, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

IRS Issues Final Form 990 Rules
September 9, 2011
The IRS has published final regulations that generally adopt the 2008 proposed and temporary regulations related to implementation of the redesigned Form 990. The final rules make permanent the revised threshold amounts for reporting compensation, eliminate the advance ruling process for new organizations, and implement a five-year public support computation period.
Most of the provisions in the final regulations have been in effect since the 2008 overhaul of the Form 990. The rules, however, include a few new and modified rules related to private foundations and definitions related to sponsoring organizations of donor advised funds.
The final regulations became effective September 8, 2011. Earlier this year, NACUBO submitted comments in response to Announcement 2011-36, which solicited comments about future changes to the Form 990. The final regulations do not address the specific areas included in the announcement.

San Francisco Welcomes the Plush Seats, Posh Meals of JetBlue Mint
If there's one question we've heard over and over since the launch of JetBlue's Mint premium class earlier this year, it's "when will it fly to San Francisco?"
The answer arrived this last Sunday, literally, in the form of a JetBlue A321. This milestone marks the beginning of regular Mint service between JFK and SFO, which comes in addition to the original route of JFK-LAX begun in June.
**21 original photos of the JetBlue Mint seats and service**
Mint seats start at $599 each way, and include custom extras specifically for JetBlue Mint passengers. These include a full, hot meal from NYC's Saxon + Parole, a special customer service line, an amenity kit by Birchbox, a comfy pillow and duvet, and a fully flat bed for optimum nappage.
To book Mint between JFK and LAX or JFK and SFO, simply search your preferred dates on JetBlue.com and look for the green column of Mint fares.

Why One Airline is Adding Crickets to the In-Flight Menu
There is no such thing as too many options when it comes to in-flight dining, snacking, and drinking. Thankfully JetBlue knows we're suckers for a good in-flight snack, and that's why we're eager to try out their latest offering—even if it's a little out of the ordinary.
Beginning in 2015, JetBlue will be handing out some unique snack bars featuring cricket as an ingredient. To be specific, they will be protein bars in flavors like blueberry vanilla and peanut butter and jelly, and one of the main components will be cricket flour—we guess that means ground up cricket carcasses.
Pricing and other details haven't been rolled out as of yet, but we do know it's part of a collaboration between the folks at JetBlue and AccelFoods' start-up Exo.

American Airlines, JetBlue, and Virgin America Lead the New Routes News
Sometimes it's hard to stay on top of all the new route announcements that come our way, so we've complied a little bit of a rundown below. As long as you can afford the fares, this should definitely help add to your passport stamp collection.
· JetBlue:
The free snacks and blue chips are on the move once again, as JetBlue is adding a couple new options to their route network. The carrier plans to do the nonstop thing between Las Vegas and San Francisco beginning on January 5. Things will head back and forth two times each and every day, and it'll be some of the carrier's Airbus A320s doing the flying. JetBlue isn't done there either, as they have one more flight to add. October 29 will bring nonstop flights between Las Vegas and Fort Lauderdale too.
· American Airlines:
Here's a new option for those that enjoy the up in the air experience offered up by American Airlines. The carrier will be heading in and out of Delta's home in Atlanta, as they're planning to start new nonstop flights between Los Angeles and Atlanta. The plan is to start taking to the skies beginning on March 5. American Airlines plans to send planes and people between the two cities three times each day, and they'll be doing it all with some help from their Boeing 737-800s.

'Twilight' Actor Jackson Rathbone Describes Horrifying Emergency Landing
Twilight star Jackson Rathbone's JetBlue flight to Austin made an emergency landing this afternoon and he's been recounting the entire experience on Twitter.
Rathbone's first tweet, posted around 12:50 PM EST, simply read, "Thank you Jesus and the pilot of this plane."

What's Better Than Beer Onboard? In-Flight Smoothies!
JetBlue is bringing a few new options to their in-flight beverage cart, as they're utilizing some new goodies from their neighborhood—greater New York State.
Smoothies will soon be on the menu, as they realize that flyers are often looking for something a little more substantial—and healthy—than a baby bottle of alcohol and side of soft drink from their EatUp Café offerings.

The First Airline to Hyperlapse is...
Two days is about the correct amount of time before big brands begin experimenting with new social media apps. This has again proved true for Hyperlapse from Instagram, as travel companies race to see how sped-up video can enrich their online presence.
Technically the first airline to dabble in Hyperlapse was Qantas, as they re-grammed a Hyperlapse from one of their travelers, who captured Qantas airplane movements from a lounge at Sydney International Airport before his own flight.
But the first airline to create their own Hyperlapse video using the new app was...

New Routes are Taking Off from Frontier, American Airlines, and China Southern
Sometimes it's hard to stay on top of all the new route announcements that come our way, so we've complied a little bit of a rundown below. As long as you can afford the fares, this should definitely help add to your passport stamp collection.
· JetBlue:
You might not have started to plan your winter holiday, but JetBlue already has started to do exactly that on your behalf. They're adding a new Caribbean destination to their network, as flights between New York-JFK and Curacao will start up for the very first time on December 2. The planes and people will head back and forth two times per week on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and it'll be Airbus A320s responsible for heading high into the skies.
· American Airlines:
More flights in and out of Haiti, and this time it's American Airlines bringing in the new connections. The carrier is adding a nonstop flight between Miami and Cap-Haitien—it's on the northern coast of Haiti. This is the second destination to and from Haiti for American Airlines, and it looks like things will takeoff beginning on October 2. Boeing birds will be utilized—737-800s—and it's a daily round trip option.

JetBlue announced this week that a new non-stop route from New York to Curaçao will debut on December 2nd, making it the only airline to offer non-stop flights between the two destinations.
Flights will operate twice a week on Tuesdays and Saturdays, departing New York at 9:00 a.m. and arriving on the island at 2:30 p.m. Return flights will depart Curaçao at 3:30 p.m. and arrive at 7:14 p.m.

Checking in for a JetBlue Flight Now So Easy, It's Automatic
Those flying aboard JetBlue just might have an easier experience to look forward to, as the carrier is now in process of rolling out automatic check-in. That's right—soon there'll be no need to line up at the airport or deal with things online in advance, as JetBlue will already have you sorted.
This update started last week, and boarding passes are now sent to passengers around 24 hours in advance of the flight. Printing them out the old fashioned way is an option, or travelers can certainly download a mobile boarding pass. This will certainly come in handy when you're not near WiFi or a computer, or are rushing to the airport and concerned you'll miss the deadline for check-in before your flight.

Inside the Amenity Kit: Freshening Up with Birchbox for JetBlue Mint
We come across some downright awesome airline amenity kits in our travels, and the surprises of each zippered pouch can often make or break comfort on a premium flight. With this in mind, here's to our new series: Inside the Amenity Kit, wherein we unzip, unwrap, and expose the loot inside:
Picture this: you get all settled in your seat and are browsing the menu when the flight attendant delivers a small box. Inside are travel-size items to make this transcontinental flight more refreshing and relaxing. You have the choice of a male or female kit (no judgements) and, should you like what you've tried, the full-size items can be found for sale online.
This is the concept of the amenity kits for passengers in the new JetBlue Mint premium cabin between JFK and LAX (and JFK-SFO come October 26). For this partnership, the airline called up Birchbox, a hugely successful NY-based subscription service which sends their subscribers, all over the country, the latest in personal care products in travel-friendly sample sizes.
Not only is an amenity kit a first for JetBlue (we're not counting those red eye Snooze kits they used to distribute), but an airline partnership is a first for Birchbox as well.

First Impressions of JetBlue Mint, Now Flying Coast-to-Coast
After many months of coy reveals and growing anticipation, JetBlue>'s first premium seats have hit the skies. Named Mint, the cabin is now available on flights between JFK and LAX, and coming to JFK-SFO in October.
Ahead of the inaugural flight yesterday, JetBlue hosted a trial run on the ground at JFK. For this, we sent a JetBlue flyer who'd never seen the seats before and had an "empty slate" for first impressions.
There's a new plane on the tarmac at New York-JFK Airport, and it's shiny inside as well as out. We're talking about the brand-spankin-new Airbus A321s coming to JetBlue, and their "Mint" cabin of fully flat leather seating. The first of them, appropriately named It's Mint to Be, is one of the 11 Mint-configured A321s due to be delivered to JetBlue in 2014.

JetBlue's Gift to Economy Passengers? Snacks on Snacks on Snacks.
It's been a long flight; as you step out into the aisle for a quick trip to the lavatory and a stretch, you spot a glowing blue cabinet up ahead. Other passengers have been taking something from there all flight long, and now you're curious to see what all the fuss is about. The answer? A nook of free snacks!
This in-flight delight is brand new to JetBlue's Mint-equipped Airbus A321s. Why not a second Diet Coke while you're up there? It's all good, because these convenient treats are still part of JetBlue's generous complimentary snacks for customers in Economy.
The position of the cabinet at the front of the cabin is an extra perk for passengers purchasing the "Even More Space" seats; it's a far shorter trip up the aisle for another bag of Blue Chips or Popcorners, without the impatience of waiting for the flight attendants to pass them out.

Happy Free Comic Book Day!
For the 12th year, participating comic book shops across North America and around the world give away comic books absolutely FREE to anyone who comes into their stores. Since its inception, Free Comic Book Day has given out more than 27 million free comics to nearly 8 million people. This year alone, more than 4.6 million comic books will be given away.
The goal of Free Comic Book Day is to promote the comic book medium to new customers young and old and celebrate independent comic book retailers and their stores. Comics are exciting and a great tool for introducing young children to the world of reading.
This year's list of free comics includes mainstream titles such as The Walking Dead, SpongeBob, Sesame Street, Superman, GRIMM, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Smurfs, The Simpsons, Archie, and the launching of a major Marvel Comics' Event called Infinity.
Since it's May 4, which many celebrate as Star Wars Days ("May the fourth be with you!"), it's appropriate that there's a Star Wars title among this year's Free Comic Book Day offerings.
My pal Matt Price of Nerdage reports that there are 52 total Free Comic Book Day comics from which to choose. Major characters including Superman, Batman, the Avengers, the Simpsons and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are featured in this year's event.
More than one million people are expected to visit 2000 comic book specialty stores in 60 countries all over the world on Free Comic Book Day, according to Matt.
A dozen stores in the Oklahoma City area are participating. To see the handy-dandy list Matt has compiled, click here.
So, listen to Hugh Jackman and visit your local comic book retailer today. For more information, go to www.freecomicbookday.com.

WBE Singing Wildcats!!!
On Wednesday, March 18th,
the WBE Wildcat Chorus made the journey to GMEA's District 2 Large Group
Performance Evaluation held at Colquitt County High School in Moultrie,
GA. The singers had been preparing since
January for this event.
The LPGE format has each
performing group prepare two selections to be adjudicated by three selected
judges. The group's performance is
evaluated in seven different.
Tone – Pitch – Rhythm –
Ensemble – Diction – Interpretation – Other Factors
The ratings range from "I" –
Superior to "V" – Poor.
These seven scores are then
averaged to determine each Judge's rating.
All of the judges' ratings are then averaged to determine the performing
group's overall rating.
The Singing Wildcats performed
"The Erie Canal" arranged by Ruth
Elaine Schram and "Peace Be With You"
by Steve Kupperschmid and received a "I" (Superior) from each of the judges
resulting in an overall LGPE Rating of "I".
The students from WBE also
represented the school in fine fashion when they stopped for lunch on the way
home. The manager of Krystal commented on how much he
appreciated them eating at his establishment and how well behaved the students
were. Next door at Arby's similar things were happening with the employees asking the
students to sing for them. They
did! Great behavior and great times for
great students…
The Singing Wildcats want to
thank Mr. Ard, the WBE Administration-Faculty and Staff, and their families for
the support of the Singing Wildcats.

I'd never heard of Dan Simmons before, until I found one of his books in my local second hand bookshop. It was spine out on the shelf, in the Fantasy/Horror/Science fiction section. How these three distinct genres manage to get lumped together in one, I don't know. Perhaps the fact that Historical Romance has its own floor to ceiling set of shelving is because of its popularity, but surely it wouldn't take much effort to give a shelf or two to Horror, and the same again to Fantasy, etc. They might not be as popular, but these individual genres still deserve their own spots in the shop.
Anyway, I digress.
As I said, the book was spine out on the shelf, but it stood out for two reasons. The first is that, at over 750 pages, it was one hell of a thick spine. And the second reason it caught my eye is that title: The Terror. Continue reading

Pruning Fig Trees
winter_flurry(Zone 7 Ga)September 4, 2009
Greetings and I have 2 big Fig Trees next to rhe deck here. Whern are you supposed to Prune those? Just asking and they came with the house when it was bought.
lrvjim(7 to 8)
If the fig's have outgrown their location and you wish to bring them down to a more manageable size read over the linked thread. There is also an older UGA fact sheet with some info about pruning figs which you can find by doing a Google search on "figs uga".
But to answer your question, you will want to prune these in late winter, say the last of February.
Here is a link that might be useful: Turn A Fig Tree Into A Fig Bush

As long as it's not an infinite number of monkeys brains being bashed in with an infinite number of typewriters because then we'd not only destroy the complete works of Shakespeare, but also the cure for every problem there is.

Ocala SKY: Cut in hours not related to TBW woes
Published: Monday, August 10, 2009 at 3:34 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, August 10, 2009 at 3:34 p.m.
Its just for the rest of the summer, but SKY Asian Fusions hours have been trimmed to dinnertime only.
Until further notice, the top-notch restaurant atop the Holiday Inn at I-75 and State Road 200 will be closed on Sundays as well as for lunch. The change went into effect last Thursday. SKY currently is open 5-9 p.m. Monday-Thursday and 5-10 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
This is just for the summer, says Executive Chef Tony Trinidad. Its been planned for some time. Otherwise, were open for business as usual.
SKY in The Villages closed Sundays after Mothers Day in May, but remains open for lunch. Hours there are 11 a.m.- 9 p.m. Monday-Saturday.
Its just coincidental, Trinidad says, that SKYs summer hours went into effect the day after Taylor, Bean & Whitaker closed its doors. SKY and Ipanema Brazilian Steakhouse originally were opened by Dine Design, a restaurant group formed by several TBW executives.
Officials with both restaurants say they are independent units with no direct connection to TBW.
Ipanema on Pine Avenue in Ocala modified its hours July 1; it opens at 5 p.m. all seven days, closing at 10 oclock on Friday and Saturday, and at 9 the other five days. Ipanema also is open for lunch, 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday-Friday.

If you start a Sunday live blog in a week in which the Buffalo Bills have already played, will anyone see it? I hope to hear from Payne/Stopa/Nowak et al, but the Buffalo Mafia might all be out with their respective families. Meanwhile, I hope that Jay Glazer's report on Darren Sproles not playing is accurate. It would be nice to have accurate news on an inactive for the late games *before* the early games start.

Re: Pros and cons of steel sailboats
Smack- Problem is g-d forbid owner actually wants to insure the boat they spent time and money on and go ocean voyaging ( which he says is target audience). With information provided I think they will have great difficulty. I don't see any CE-A or other certification. So I got to believe an owner would be faced with great difficulty getting insurance. So as pointed out by others info on web site not compatible with reality. Know for myself I would never take any boat, even a Brent Boat, out of sight of land without some factual reassurance it could handle severe weather. It's striking when I was looking at steel boat for myself these statistics where made available and generated in a professional manner that would be accepted by a third party. When I spoke with insurance brokers I was re assured there would be no major issue procuring insurance. As you know without insurance increasingly your cruising opportunities are becoming more and more limited as well as the inability to finance the boat. Even at 25k this is real money. Especially for those still working for a living and not living off the land.

Comment on PS3 Outsells Xbox 360 by Anonymous:
Oh, please Taylor. If you are playing video games on a devices designed several years ago, you have no credibility to say other people have "primitive minds". Get yourself up to speed with modern technologyu before slinging insults like that to everybody.

Mine already exploded, it lasted 6 years tough, in that time i had 3, count them 3! xboxes, and i KNOW that im not alone in this, so even whit rampaging rrods on the xbox side, PS3 managed to beat them in sales, good for them, (i had one of the original 600 dollars 80 gig PS3s with full backwars compatibility and the cool card reader on the front, it YLOD a couple of months ago… so sad, the slim ones are so tiny and ugly in comparison)
- PS3 Outsells Xbox 360:
Wow, people who spend upwards of a 1000 dollars on a PC gaming machine cant afford a 150 dollars wii?, heck just buy it with the game beat it fast then return it for store credit (and get more PC games with it) at least in the US and most first world coutries you can do that
- PS3 Outsells Xbox 360:
It is only a matter of politics. Here in Brazil we pay a minimum of 87% tax on any electronics imports. M$ is the only one with the $$$ to afford producing it here, since they have big $$$ to spend. A retail, barebones PS3 costs now 20-jan-2013 about US$ 685. http://www.americanas.com.br/produto/111954114/console-oficial-playstation-3-slim-250-gb-sony For this insane price tag you can buy two x360 barebones or one premium with 04 games and 03 months gold membership, since four games cost the …
- PS3 Outsells Xbox 360:
Brazil is the only country of South America that XBOX 360 is the leader. They have a strong support for the console and have a fantastic install base. Other countries even with the pirated 360 are not Xbox dominated. You got your numbers bad about Chile, sum up Zmart and the rest of the retailers and PS3 is largely above any other. Bluray is a big reason but anyways. Also in Argentina the rate of PS3 againt Xbox is almost 8 to 1 in favor of PS3. Countries like Paraguay and Peru have more PS3 …

Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals' Tyrann Mathieu named NFL Defensive Rookie of the Month
The storybook season of Arizona Cardinals defensive back Tyrann Mathieu continued Thursday as he was named the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Month for October.
In four games during October, Mathieu totaled 21 tackles, an interception, a sack and defended five passes while playing 86 percent of all defensive snaps.
The third-round pick out of LSU is one of only six players in the NFL with at least two interceptions, a sack and a forced fumble on the season joining Buffalo LB Kiko Alonso, Baltimore LB Daryl Smith, Carolina S Mike Mitchell, NY Giants S Antrel Rolle and Denver LB Danny Trevathan.
Mathieu, who ranks second on the team with 49 total tackles, is just the third Cardinals player to win the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Month Award, joining CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (2008) and DE Simeon Rice (1996) as recipients.
