So back in January, I wrote out my 7 goals for the year. It's been two months, so let's see how I'm doing :
1. Become FULLY polyphasic
I'm close on this one. Many days I go perfectly, sometimes if I have nothing to do I oversleep and then skip some naps during the day. I'm actually pretty satisfied with that, as I'm only sleeping 2.5-4.5 hours per night, I'm never tired, and can always count on being awake early and staying up late. I'll keep pressing to be more consistent, but I'm satisfied with where I am.
2. Gain 15lb of lean muscle
No progress here at all. I tried working out really hard once while polyphasic and it wiped me out and caused a major oversleep. I waver on whether or not I really care enough to do the work necessary to gain the muscle. I think I do, but it's not at the top of the priority list. I still expect to finish this by the end of the year, though.
3. Make a million dollars by my birthday this year
I hate to admit defeat, but this isn't going to happen. I don't like telling people when my birthday is, but I don't have the time unless something particularly lucky happens. And I don't want to rely on luck.
That said, I'm recovering pretty well from my financial disaster this year. New plans are in place that should make me very rich within 5-10 years at most. Most of my productive energy goes towards this goal. My new goal is to make a million by my next birthday. I will need to ramp things up into high gear, but it's possible without a doubt.
4. Become a relatively well known rapper
This one is going ok, and I think I am on track. I freestyle every day for an hour, and have been getting really good recently. I have a whole file filled with good lines I've come up with that are just waiting to be put into a song. I'm procrastinating working with DZK because I want our song to be great in case I don't get another one with him. I don't think this is necessarily a smart move, though.
Neil Strauss, a friend of mine who used to review music for the Rolling Stone and New York listened to my latest songs and said that he thinks I'm good enough to go pro. This is huge for me because he's always listened to my songs, pointed out the good and bad, but never said anything that made me think he thought I was good enough. I didn't want to ask, because I didn't want to pressure him to say yes.
I definitely have a lot of work to do here, but I'm making good progress overall.
5. Find and date one incredible girl OR date several great girls-
Ugh. Not much progress here at all. Not that I've met all that many great girls in clubs, but I haven't been going out recently. With no real job and no school, I meet almost no new girls on a regular basis. I find attracting them easy, but finding them nearly impossible.
Also, I'm pretty apathetic here, just like #2. I'd say that in any given week, there are two hours or so where I actively wish I had a girl with me. The rest of the time I just don't care. This is probably part of the problem. I'm going to call Tyler today and figure out when he's coming down to get me back up to speed.
6. Enlarge my social circle
Actually, I'm pretty happy with my progress here. I've made one new really cool friend who actually found me through my blog. I've also been spending more time with my old friends whose company I really enjoy. Even if my social circle isn't that much bigger, it is fuller.
7. Do something REALLY nice for someone or a group of people
I'll admit it... nothing to report here. I have a great idea for this, I just have to plan it.
How am I doing overall?
Honestly, I am not at all happy with my progress overall. I waste a tremendous amount of time. What's worse is that I'm conscious of it and do nothing to fix it. Maybe I'm being too hard on my self, but if I was on the outside watching me on a daily basis, I would immediately think "Man.. this guy is lazy".
Here's what I am happy about :
I guess that's not TOO bad for two months, but I know I can do a LOT better. In fact... F this... I have an idea and I'm going to continue in a new post.
I have been a little business man since I was in 6th grade. I am really quite the genious when it comes to ideas for businesses. I just lack the resources to get them going. You see to be the type of person that can get anything to work. You could sell ice to an eskimo, a vacuum to a vacuum salesman. You have any tips or tricks for a young entrepreneur? Would be awesome btw the website that I posted ^^ I created as a business venture, problem is that its mainly marketed to younger people that have no means of paying. Kinda blows but im learning as I go.
I don't know the best way to do it, but I basically attacked it with brute force. I freestyle every day for about an hour or so. I do it the entire time that I'm in the shower, usually for 15-20 minutes before, and also most of the time when I'm in my car alone.
At first you will be totally useless and unable to come up with two lines that rhyme on the fly. After a few months you'll be able to rap for a few seconds at a time, probably mostly regurgitated thug stuff you've heard on the radio. It's easy to rhyme that stuff.
Later you'll start being able to rap about any topic (try rapping about what you see as you walk or drive around), rap for 30 seconds to a minute.
Then finally you'll be able to rap indefinitely (basically ) and will start being able to do more complex stuff like inside rhmyes. I'm sure it only gets better from there, but that's basically where I'm at now.
Your'e totally right about one thing - I'm not really commited to that goal. More accurately, it's just not a priority at the moment.
And to set the record straight for all you readers at home... Magnus is a king among PUAs... my skills (especially these days) pale in comparison! (That sounds sarcastic, but it's not)
Dude in 5 nights in Austin I got 5 numbers, 4 tonguedowns, and two options to go home with on Valentines night... you have more l33t PUA sk1llz than me, but factor in the Brit TALLY HO element and we should come out even.
Just go out, and stop waiting for Tyler to give you permission to talk to a girl.
It sounds like you haven't really set your mind to most of these goals... going Raw was not on the list, but you achieved that, so that's really what you set your mind to.
Been a while since my last post. I'm still on it. I had a falling out around Thanksgiving with 3-4 days of extreme oversleeping. Where I'm at right now:
I tend to oversleep daily. Just random times. Seems out of my control. Like I will sleepwalk, turn off my alarm, go back to sleep. Or randomly fall asleep at my computer, or find myself in my living room, very confused as to what's going on and what time it is.
I'm usually really exhausted and out of it at 6 am-10am, and then feel fine after 11am...almost like clockwork. But then I will oversleep at other random times when I actually feel okay, like 2pm.
As I mentioned a few blogposts ago, I've had a rush of creative energy lately. The image you see above is of a birthday card I made for a lovely newly-turned 5-year-old named Sophia. She is the daughter of my friends Leigh and Chris up in Seattle, Washington. I love making birthday and greeting cards.
One on-going project that has taken a few months is a scarf that I am making for my "dominating" Persian friend Michael. (Yeah, that's how he is. I don't get it either.) I was not happy with the original version of this scarf, and so I started all over with new colors. He is a dark and brooding kind of guy, and so I thought it best to infuse some lightness. This scarf is still a work in progress, and luckily, it's been hot as hell here in Nashville lately. It will be ready by the fall.
I've also started knitting little squares that I will more or less stitch together to make a cover for my dust-magnet of a keyboard. I have five done and oh, only about sixty or so left to go. Yeesh.

I hate myself for loving you...
I bet we all have them. You spill a pot, you break a branch. What do you do with the piece?
This pot started out as Jacobean Lily (Sprekelia formosissima). A broken branch from an Echeveria somehow got stuck in the pot. I intended to root it and give it a separate pot, but, the road to H3ll is paved with good intentions too.
At some point, a piece of a Schlumbergera was added. Now, I have this mess of plants I really neither want nor need.
The second pic is not a good intention. I don't want them, and refuse to dedicate a pot to them, but I can't just put them on the mulch pile either. Sedums, Epiphyllums, Aloes, even a couple of Cleistocactus rooted in the tiny amount of soil in the bottom. Please don't condemn, but I understand a certain amount of pity.
What do I do with them? Eventually they go. Sometimes people who visit express an interest and they get a bunch. I have more plants than I need, so swapping is out. I used to send them out for postage, but I was hosed so many times I quit that. I have donated specimen plants to a botanical garden (their desert exhibit is about 1/3 my donated plants). My wife sponsors a yard sale at a local church, but the plants I send there are usually potted. I wish somebody lived close, the ones in the pics are only the beginning. I mean, how many pots of Huernia keniensis do you need? (I have 3.)
Ask for cash up front. I know I would send you out postage ahead of time if I saw something I liked. But as it is, I am in the same situation as you are. I want to keep my collection to just Sansevieria but some times I see something that really catches my attention.
About half the people pay me back for postage. I will not ask for it. If they ask, I tell them it's on the package I sent them w/my address. I have received mush more than I ever sent out. When you get a $40 plant for $3 to $4 postage. Wow, who can complain.
I like the title, was that Joan Jet?
As you may know, I did succulent sendoffs for years when I lived in SD (and met some wonderful, simply wonderful people while doing so!) and I always required postage up front (either stamps, postal money order or, least desirable, cash) before the 3-6 pounds of yard trimmings was sent to a recipient. It completely avoids the problems you describe.
I completely relate to what you're saying! A passive aggressive strategy I developed is to accidentally on purpose leave some plants outside for the winter. This often backfires, though, because I grow a lot of things that are borderline hardy here and I sometimes end up with something worse - a damaged plant that I don't need or want!

Rattan must be 'out' because when I did a search in decorating, it didn't seem to come up with much.
I went into a second hand store and found four rattan barstools for cheap. I'm thinking of painting them, but prior painting of things has often resulted in scraped chipping paint after despite sanding and priming and reading and sweating and praying. Maybe the Paint Gremlin hangs out at my house (although one rousing success was an entertainment center painted white that still looks good if I do say so myself).
And my second challenge is where exactly I'm going to put these in my tiny home.
The few times that I've seen something one-of-a-kind that really appealled and walked away, I've regretted it for years so the bar stools came home with me, all 4 stuffed artfully into the tiny Corolla.
So I have 2 questions:
1) Any tips or techniques for painting rattan so it wont chip or peel and
2) Have any of you bought furniture because you really loved it even when there wasn't much room in the house for it?
Should work out great, I've painted it before with Rustoleum & works well.(seems like paint formulas change fast now- a- days tho. Do you have a high counter to put them up to if not a round table that is high(people who collect Coke stuff can get tables & high chairs so you might look at them & then make your own "high table" Bro. had that & jukebox & old poolroom type games. it was great fun until he moved away, wonder if he has a game room now, forgot to ask him. Have fun with them.

compatability view?
My gmail account says :It looks like you have enabled Internet Explorer Compatibility View. Gmail works best if you turn this off".
So I've checked if this is true (tools-comp view settings), but the compatability view is not enabled?
I've also noticed that the weathertracker that we have on our computer (downloaded fron weatherzone.com.au is not working anymore, it says it can't find my location so therefore I get no forecast?)
Are these two things linked? Is there anything else going on that I could look into?
I'm worried because the same things have happened at my work computer this last Friday, yet my colleagues still have their weathertracker working.
Any advice appreciated :-)
I find it odd both computers are affected by the same thing, from that description it would seem to point to some up-date issue. The Google issue appears to related to IE 8. I have no idea what's going on with the weather issue, to me they seem like separate issues.
These are the only instructions I can find others appear to be having the issue as well.
Go to the "Tools" menu of your IE browser and from the drop-down menu select "Compatibility View Settings." In there, you will see a check-box labeled "Include updated website lists from Microsoft." Uncheck it i.e. make sure there is no tick/mark in the box. The link below is where the information above is from.
As far as the weather thing all I could suggest is to reinstall it and go through the set up process again.
Thanks Zep for your help! I've unticked the box and my gmail opened fine.
As for the weather tracker; now my colleagues have the same problem so maybe it's an update issue, as you suggested. Uninstalling and re-installing didn't fix it, so I'll just leave it for now.
One thing I did notice when I uninstalled it is that it didn't remove all components, even thouh it says it will? There was still a folder in C:Program Files. How come that didn't get uninstalled?

Palin Derangement Syndrome
Of all the moronic attacks on Sarah Palin, and they are piling up, this has got to be one of the lowest of the low.
And it's brought to you by the morbid ghouls who would rather you abort your unborn children than bring them into the world and increase the planet's carbon footprint. Left-wing definition of "proper pre-natal care:" A bloody trip to Planned Parenthood.
Have mercy upon them.
More trash here on Gov. Palin's pregnancy, if you feel like getting your blood pressure up further.

This paper discusses the incentives for innovation by a manager-led firm. In particular, it is investigated how remuneration practices influence the choice of a risky project. In the first place, a dynamic model with uncertainty is used to determine the optimal employment level with exogenous growth and risk. In the second part of the paper, growth and risk are explained by R&D expenditures. Optimal investment expenditures for R&D are derived for (i) the profit-maximizing firm and (ii) the managerial firm, where the manager receives a fixed salary as well as a variable share of profits. If risk neutrality is assumed, then no difference exists. However, if risk aversion is considered, the managerial firm will invest more into R&D than the owner-led company. Size-related salaries are an additional reason for higher expenditures of R&D by managers. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Pretty expensive for the bad quality. Gets the job done, but they break all the time. Highly recommend gluing the wire for strain relief.

Handy when debugging, but not the best quality. After a couple of months of very gentle use, most of the wires are broken. So, I agree with tah997, resolder and add a blob of hot glue.

Not super sturdy but worked great for bringing out the inputs of my Parallax Logic analyzer. (to clarify the hooks themselves are about 1.5")

These clips are very handy when debugging your projects. A personal tip, put a small blob of hot glue in the hole to prevent the wire from flexing and breaking off. This improvement makes these clips great value.

Objective: To compare real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE) with two-dimensional dobutamine stress echocardiography (2DE) for the detection of myocardial ischaemia, with angiographic validation of the results.
Methods: 56 patients (mean (SD) age 64.5 (6.2) years, 38 males), referred for coronary angiography, were examined by 2DE and RT3DE during the same dobutamine stress protocol.
Results: All 56 patients completed the stress protocol uneventfully. The mean (SD) acquisition time for the necessary views to evaluate all segments was 26.3 (2.5) s for RT3DE and 58.8 (3.7) s for 2DE (p<0.001). At peak stress, RT3DE had a higher wall-motion score index (1.25 (0.24) by 2DE, 1.30 (0.27) by RT3DE; p = 0.014). The regional wall-motion score for the four apical segments at peak stress was compared; it was 1.35 (0.55) by 2DE and 1.52 (0.69) by RT3DE (p = 0.003). The diagnostic parameters of 2DE versus RT3DE were: sensitivity 73% vs 78%, specificity 93% vs 89% and overall accuracy 86% vs 85%, respectively. In the left anterior descending artery territory, in particular, where RT3DE had higher regional wall-motion scores, it showed a tendency towards higher sensitivity (85% vs 78%), although this difference did not achieve statistical significance.
Conclusion: RT3DE identifies wall-motion abnormalities more readily in the apical region than 2DE, which may explain the tendency towards higher sensitivity in the left anterior descending artery territory. RT3DE results were validated using angiography as reference and findings indicate diagnostic equivalence to 2DE, with the advantage of considerable shorter acquisition times.

Given a magento installation with multiple existing websites and stores, is it possible to create a new website/store that requires users to login before they can order a product?

Challenging ideas in mental health
This unit takes you on a journey of discovery where you are invited to challenge ideas, both new and old, in relation to mental health. It is made up of a series of three extracts. The first extract, 'Boundaries of explanation', sets out the theme of boundaries: boundaries within and between groups; within and between explanatory frameworks; and within and between experiences of mental health and distress. The second extract, 'Whose risk is it anyway?', considers a critical account of the increasing focus on risk (particularly risk to others) in policies and professional practice since the 1980s. The third extract, 'The business of madness', looks at two controversial areas of mental health: the growth of mental health as a business, driven in part by market forces, and the profit motive.
This study unit is an adapted extract relevant to The Open University course K272 Challenging ideas in mental health, which is no longer taught by the University. If you want to study formally with us, you may wish to explore other courses we offer in this subject area [Tip: hold Ctrl and click a link to open it in a new tab. (Hide tip)] .

please add a filter for tags (similar to the one we can use with track types). such filter would be useful in many situations.
in the tagged tour view you can select tours with a spefic tag - of course "inside" the actual filter, so in my opionion 2.priority;-)
but only in the tagged view it works like a filter but not in other views
the next major version do not have implemented a tag filter but a photo filter for all views to display only tours which contains photos

Liberals Really Upset That Obama's Considering *GULP* Enforcing Federal Drug Laws
As I've written multiple times, I really couldn't care less one way or the other about marijuana: I don't smoke it, have no plans to smoke it, and, really, it is a much less dangerous drug than alcohol. I'd prefer they not smoke it in public, a contact high is not in my daily plans. But, it is a federally controlled Schedule I drug, meaning it is illegal to use, possess, and or sell, and has no medical benefits. Alas, liberals are really put out that Obama is considering actually enforcing pesky federal law. Here's Excitable Andrew Sullivan
What he's thinking about doing is going after those who use pot in Washington and Colorado, which made the drug legal per a referendum this November, as well as suing those states.
Well, since they're asking: if they decide to treat the law-abiding citizens of Colorado and Washington as dangerous felons; if they decide to allocate their precious law enforcement powers to persecuting and arresting people for following a state law that they have themselves just passed by clear majorities; if they decide that opposing a near majority of Americans in continuing to prosecute the drug war on marijuana, even when the core of their own supporters want an end to Prohibition, and even when that Prohibition makes no sense … then we will give them hell.
Except, under federal law, they aren't law abiding citizens. And Obama and his DOJ stooges take an oath to uphold the laws of this land (not that they haven't already broken that covenant multiple times). It's funny, though, what really gets liberals upset. Not adding $7 trillion to the debt in under 4 years. Not rampant high unemployment and record numbers of people dropping out of the jobs market in despair. Not record numbers of people stuck on food stamps. No, they're enraged by enforcing federal law on drug use.
But the main reason the president should instruct the Justice Department that this is not an area for discretionary prosecution is that choosing to focus on pot-prohibition in states that have legalized it defies reason. One of my core arguments for Obama has long been his adoption of what I consider pretty reasonable, if always debatable, policies. He is not an extremist, proposing laws and regulations that are designed to make a cultural point or wage a cultural war; he's a pragmatist, trying to fix existing problems.
It defies reason because……it defies reason. Has Andy been smoking? It's not discretionary prosecution: it's following the law as laid out.
The Plum Lines' Greg Sargent is on board with Sully (he does realize that the Washington Post drug tests, right?)
Now, on the one hand, it's admittedly hard for liberals to argue that the federal government doesn't have the legal authority to do this. But on the merits, there's an argument to be made that pursuing this course of action would undermine one of Obama's own long-held moral positions.
See, there's a bit of a problem: The Law trumps Obama's "long held moral positions". But, then, our nation has already moved past that "we're a nation of laws not a nation of men" notion long ago.
This last suggestion ain't happening any time soon, but Sullivan is speaking for a lot of angry people here. If the administration can agree not to make enforcement of other bad laws–like the Defense of Marriage Act–a prosecutorial priority, it can do exactly the same thing with pot.
Isn't kind of hard to get angry when stoned? Hungry, yes. Lethargic, yes. Angry? Dude, pass the bong.

HAVE: Buda Swap - Coffee Cans/Bottles?
Redthistle(8)March 15, 2009
I've been saving the large 2 lb coffee cans with lids in the hope of drilling holes in the bottom and painting them to make planters. I realize now I will never get the time. I have seven.
Would anyone at the Buda swap like these? They are clean and could easily be used for another purpose (coffee can Christmas bread, crafts etc.). I also have a few bottles, not blue, that could be used for a bottle tree. Anyone interested?
If no one wants the coffee cans, I'll advertise them on Craigslist.

The jacket is intended to have a boxy fit. I am 5'7" 145-150 lbs and the XS fits me perfectly. Now when I say perfectly that does not mean that it's a super fitted jacket. I mean that the sleeves hit right at the top of my hand, the hem reaches a couple inches past my waist and the chest is somewhat fitted. Again, it still has a boxy fit though with a slight flair at the hips. If that is something you don't want, it'd suggest a different jacket.

LOOKING for: Grilled chicken with gorgonzola cheese sauce.
I saw a prepared dish in Trader Joe's and decided to try to copy it, based on the description on the label. Has anyone tried this so far?
Grilled chicken with gorgonzola cheese sauce.
Ingredients as listed:
Grilled chicken
Gorgonzola Cheese Sauce
red or green peppers
sliced Portabella mushrooms
I love blue cheese, all kinds, so a sauce made with it would be great.
This sounds great to me. I have made the following recipe and it is really good! Ina Garten serves it with filet mignon and that is what I did, but of course it should be great with chicken too.
Gorgonzola Sauce
Copyright, 2001, Barefoot Contessa Parties!, All rights reserved
Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 50 minutes
Yield: 3 cups
4 cups heavy cream
3 to 4 ounces crumbly Gorgonzola (not creamy or "dolce")
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
Bring the heavy cream to a full boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, then continue to boil rapidly for 45 to 50 minutes, until thickened like a white sauce, stirring occasionally.
Off the heat, add the Gorgonzola, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and parsley. Whisk rapidly until the cheeses melt and serve warm.
If you must reheat, warm the sauce over low heat until melted, then whisk vigorously until the sauce comes together.
Great idea, Woodie: serving it with steak. I have ordered a blue cheese crust before in a steakhouse, it makes sense to have it as a sauce, though it had not occurred to me before.
As far as the recipe, I'll answer my own post! I had all the ingredients, so couldn't wait. I have to say, it turned out really well.
I have not actually tasted the Trader Joe's version, but mine was good.
I have a George Foreman Grill, so cooked the chicken strips on that. A real grill would be good, too, or some other cooking process that is similar to grilling.
2 Chicken breasts, cut up into strips
(marinate for 10 minutes or more, in 1/4 cup lemon juice, dash lemon pepper, 1 T Italian seasoning, 1 T paprika). Drizzle with olive oil right before cooking.
2 onions, sliced
2 red or green peppers
1/3 to 1/2 pound sliced Portabella mushrooms
(the mushrooms are critical to the flavor)
1/2 lb. Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled or chopped
4 to 6 cloves garlic, minced (if you're not a real garlic lover, use the smaller quantity)
1/4 cup of grated parmesan.
Italian parsley, optional, chopped
Cooked pasta
Grill the marinated chicken on the George Foreman grill.
Sauce base:
Melt 2 T butter in a shallow pan. Make a white sauce with 2-3 T of flour stirred into 1 cup milk. Cook until thickened: add black pepper, garlic salt, and minced garlic. Simmer on very low heat, adding more milk as needed to maintain a consistence that can coat the chicken. Add the chopped Gorgonzola cheese, and about 1/4 cup of grated parmesan. Let cheeses melt, keep warm. Gorgonzola may not melt completely, but appear chunky in the sauce.
Saute the onions in olive oil, until lightly caramelized; after them the peppers: remove to a plate. Saute the mushrooms until browned. Put them all back in the pan.
Put the cooked chicken in a large shallow serving bowl, add the onions/peppers/mushrooms. Pour the cheese sauce over, and toss to coat all lightly. Or toss them all together in the larger of the saute pans. Add chopped parsley.
Serve over Pasta.
@Linnea56: I jumped online looking for a recipe to match the Trader Joe's entree as well! It is so awesome! But these suggested recipies seem too rich...too much cream, don't you think? The Trader Joe's recipe is more watery (and I assume not as fattening). Have you found a good recipe yet?

Kevin Currie, Golf Editor
Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - This is the final weekend to impress the Presidents Cup captains, who will each make their two captain's picks on Tuesday.
United States captain Fred Couples looks to have a good field from which to choose. Not only does he have candidates with international team play on their resumes, he also has players that have won big tournaments this year among those he could select.
International team captain Greg Norman, on the other hand is looking at guys battling injuries or just poor form.
Lets break down the possible selections for both squads:
The U.S. team that was locked in after the PGA Championship includes Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Steve Stricker, Kenny Perry, Zach Johnson, Stewart Cink, Sean O'Hair, Jim Furyk, Anthony Kim and Justin Leonard. Of that group, only O'Hair has not competed in an international team event.
Of the next five in the standings that Couples will undoubtedly be consulting are the likes of Lucas Glover, Brian Gay, Hunter Mahan, Nick Watney and Dustin Johnson. All five are playing the second FedEx Cup playoff event, the Deutsche Bank Championship, this week.
Glover won his first major championship at the U.S. Open, and also played on the 2007 Presidents Cup team. He has missed the cut in two of his last four starts, but also finished fifth at the PGA Championship in that span.
Gay is the only player Couples is looking at that has won two times this season, emerging victorious at The Heritage and the St. Jude Classic. Gay has not played in international competition as a professional, but competed in the 1993 Walker Cup, which pits amateurs from the U.S. against amateurs from Great Britain and Ireland.
Mahan is the only player ranked between Nos. 11-15 that has not won this season. However, he has played on the last two international teams for the U.S., the 2007 Presidents Cup and the 2008 Ryder Cup. He has six top-10 finishes in 2009, including four in five starts at one point. His only missed cut this season was at the British Open.
Watney claimed his second PGA Tour win earlier this year at Torrey Pines as he won by a single stroke over John Rollins and ended two clear of Glover. He owns three other top-10 finishes, including a runner-up finish at the WGC - CA Championship, but did miss the cut at both the U.S. Open and the PGA Championship. The con for Watney is no international team experience.
Johnson had an up-and-down start to his season. He earned his second PGA Tour win at Pebble Beach, but had problems off the course as he was arrested for driving under the influence. Johnson has three top-10s since his win, including a tie for 10th at the PGA Championship. This would also be his first international team competition.
My money is on Glover and Mahan, but I would not be shocked if Gay or Watney is chosen ahead of Mahan to join the veteran-laden U.S. team. If Couples wants even more veteran leadership on his squad, he could go with David Toms or Chad Campbell, who are 17th and 18th on the points list.
Norman's International team includes Geoff Ogilvy, Vijay Singh, Camilo Villegas, Retief Goosen, Ernie Els, Angel Cabrera, Mike Weir, Robert Allenby, Y.E. Yang and Tim Clark.
Norman's top-five choices for his captain's picks include Rory Sabbatini, Jeev Milkha Singh, Shingo Katayama, Adam Scott and Mathew Goggin. Sabbatini and Goggin are competing at the Deutsche Bank Championship, while Singh is playing on the European Tour at the European Masters.
Sabbatini picked up his fifth PGA Tour win earlier this year at the Byron Nelson, and has three other top-10 finishes, though he also missed five cuts in a seven-event stretch between May and July. The South African played in the 2007 Presidents Cup and made three appearances in the World Cup.
Singh, who splits his time between the PGA and European Tours, has three top- six finishes and seven missed cuts this season. He missed the cut in two of the three majors he participated in, and shared 67th at the PGA Championship. Singh had a strong '08 season with a win and two second-place finishes.
Katayama has played in only six events in states this year, with his best showing a solo fourth-place finish at the Masters. Katayama owns 26 wins on the Japan Golf Tour, but has no international team experience and hasn't won in 2009.
Scott has been struggling all season. At the start of the year, he was battling an injured knee, now it is an injured game. Scott has one finish inside the top 35 -- a tie for fourth at the Scottish Open -- since February. Being an Australian, like captain Norman, might help his chances of making his fourth straight Presidents Cup team, but that would be a big limb for Norman to go out on.
Goggin is a 2008 Nationwide Tour graduate with three top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour in 2009, including a share of fifth at the British Open. The Australian has not won a professional event since 1999 and has no international team experience.
I would lean towards Norman going with the chalk picks of Sabbatini and Singh. Though looking further down the points list, I could easily envision Norman taking K.J. Choi over Singh.
A real wild card choice would be Michael Sim, who was 24th when the standings locked after the PGA Championship, but has climbed to 18th thanks to his third win of the year on the Nationwide Tour.
The first FedEx Cup playoff event is over and the range of views on Liberty National, the events' host course, are widespread.
Charles Howell III said after round two what a few of his fellow players were thinking.
"Look at the scores and it will tell you that," said Howell of Liberty National being a major championship-worthy venue.
Offering a differing opinion, one long-time caddie told Foxsports.com that he had never heard "so much bitching about a course." While another unnamed caddie was quoted as saying, "To call it a goat track is being diplomatic."
World No. 1 Tiger Woods, who is legendary for setting his schedule around events and courses he likes, had this to say about Liberty National, "It's interesting."
He didn't elaborate, but one got the feeling Woods was not a fan, despite the scenic views of the New York City skyline.
- Bad time for Paul Casey to be battling a rib injury. Not only is he costing himself a chance at the $10 million annuity in the FedEx Cup playoffs, there is no telling whether or not he'll be healthy enough to compete in the European Tour's stretch run of the inaugural Race to Dubai, which was patterned after the FedEx Cup.
- The doom and gloom of losing many events on the LPGA Tour's schedule seems to be slowing. The Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic re-upped for next year and the event will be played 4th of July weekend. That came on the heels of Wegmans extending its' contract through 2012.
- Congratulations to Annika Sorenstam on the birth of her first daughter, Ava.

I am D23 member living in the UK and I would like to buy some D23 stuff for Xmas presents. But since yesterday, the US website (http://www.disneystore.com) is now not available in the UK. I get automatically redirected to the UK website (http://www.disneystore.co.uk). D23 stuff is not available on the UK website !
I can get to the US Disney site (http://disney.go.com) by using the override (http://disney.go.com/index?intoverride=true). But clicking the store link from this takes me back to the UK site again.
Does anybody have the same problem or can anyone offer a solution ?
