ANN ARBOR, MI -- (Marketwired) -- 05/09/14 -- Michigan Governor, Rick Snyder joined Anand Mahindra, Chairman, Mahindra Group today in Ann Arbor, to inaugurate the Mahindra GenZe electric two-wheeler facility and the North American Technical Center in Southeast Michigan. The Mahindra Group was also represented at this milestone event by Dr. Pawan Goenka, Executive Director and President - Automotive & Farm Equipment Sectors. Consistent with Mahindra's 'Rise' philosophy of employing alternative thinking to drive positive change, these investments exemplify the company's commitment to developing transformative urban transportation solutions for cities around the world.
"Michigan provided us the perfect eco-system to step up our U.S. presence. We were able to draw on the terrific automotive engineering and manufacturing talent available in the state, to create industry leading initiatives for the United States," said Anand Mahindra, Chairman, Mahindra Group. "The North American Technical Center and GenZe represent important disruptive product incubators for the Mahindra Group. Constant innovation focused on improving the lives of our consumers, employees and the communities they impact is at the core of Mahindra's 'Rise' philosophy and we are delighted to see this come to fruition in the United States."
The Mahindra Group already has a substantial presence in the United States with IT companies, Tech Mahindra and Bristlecone and the world's number one selling tractor brand based on volume, Mahindra USA.

"We welcome global leaders like Mahindra to Michigan and applaud them for their product and engineering leadership. Hi-tech green manufacturing & R&D has been the cornerstone of our partnership and job creation initiatives and we are pleased to have the Mahindra brand grow its U.S. presence from Michigan," said Governor Rick Snyder.

Fuel Cells Shift from Automobile to Niche Markets
The company also gave a paper on performance of a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) using carbon nanotube (CNT) electrodes in November 2006. The CNTs were aligned perpendicularly to facilitate water drainage and control voltage drop (flattening) in the high-current region due to water generated on the air electrode side.
The prototyped MEA has gas diffusion 1.2 to 1.4 times higher than conventional designs, catalyst proton conductivity 3.3 times higher, and electron conductivity inside the catalyst layers 7.5 times higher.

Super Rugby
James Horwill is still the best man to captain the Reds, says Queensland coach Richard Graham who baulks at suggestions the lock's game benefited from being stripped of the Wallabies leadership.
In what was subsequently deemed a masterstroke, Wallabies coach Ewen McKenzie - Graham's Reds predecessor - sensationally replaced Horwill with Test rookie Ben Mowen as skipper in October.
Horwill bounced back after lacklustre form earlier to produce improved efforts on the tour to Europe, helping Australia finish with four straight wins last month.
As part of McKenzie's bold changes, reformed Reds playmaker Quade Cooper was promoted to Wallabies vice-captain just a year after being persona non grata and his game flourished on the Europe tour with the added responsibility.
Graham admitted Cooper had put his hand up as a potential future Reds captain but claimed Horwill was never in danger of losing the Super Rugby team's reins.
"Quade has been outstanding on this tour," said Graham on Tuesday.
"He is confident and when he is you see the full array of skills that he has got - I think that makes us a better team.
"Quade has been a leader here for the last three or four years by the nature of his position.
"(But) Horwill has captained the team very well. There is no reason in my mind to change the captaincy."
Graham didn't but the theory Horwill may play better without the burden of leadership.
"I don't think necessarily taking the captaincy off him was the catalyst (to his form revival)," he said.
"James and Ewen would have discussed it and given great thought about it but it was fantastic to see him play well."
Meanwhile, Graham said he had no problem with Cooper continuing with boxing despite the injury risk it poses.
Cooper has made it clear since inspiring the Wallabies' tour ending 30-26 win over Wales that he will not follow in the footsteps of good mate Sonny Bill Williams, who has put his budding boxing career on hold for at least three years.
Due to the hectic year-round rugby schedule, Cooper may be forced to cram his second professional bout in between Reds pre-season trials, as he did successfully earlier this year.
Graham said boxing only seemed to benefit Cooper's rugby game.
"I have no issues (with him continuing boxing)," he said.
"I think physically it keeps him in really good condition."
Graham said winger Rod Davies (knee) was their only injury concern ahead of their pre-season which will include a February 14 clash with Melbourne Rebels at "spiritual home" Ballymore.
Cooper said he would discuss a suitable date for his next fight when he resumed training in coming days - well before the scheduled January 16 return date for Queensland's Wallabies contingent.
"I want next year to be a better year. There are areas that I can improve my game," Cooper told reporters on his return to Brisbane on Tuesday.
"I am looking at areas away from the game where I can be a better teammate and a better person."
Horwill said he would relish the Reds' reins in 2014.
"I enjoy captaining my state and obviously enjoy captaining my country but now that (being Reds skipper) is something I can work on," he said in Brisbane on Tuesday.

Nature: Crime is in the air for wild birds
Saturday 11 October 1997
Shooting, poisoning and egg-collection increased last year, although the total number of all offences reported was the lowest since 1990, according to the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds.
Apart from birds of prey, at least 70 birds were illegally shot, including cormorant, grey heron, mute and Berwick's swans, Kingfisher and even blackbird. Nests of non-birds-of-prey robbed included nationally rare birds such as black-throated diver, roseate tern and chough. Fifty-one prosecutions came to court in 1996, 42 successfully, with fines totalling pounds 26,295 and costs pounds 16,330.
Graham Wynne, conservation director of the RSPB, said: "At a time when the interest in birds and their environment is at an all-time high, it is a disgrace that the law is so widely flouted." The figures were published as the UK Conference of Police Wildlife Liaison Officers opened in Carmarthen.

Virtual docs may help prevent future suicides
- Urvaksh Karkaria
- Staff Writer- Atlanta Business Chronicle
- Email | Twitter | Google+ | LinkedIn
Before all MCG students enter their clinically intensive third and fourth years of medical school, they spend time with these patients, honing communication and patient-examination skills.
The researchers hypothesize that students who interact with Denise will be better able to assess suicide risk in the standardized patients.
If they are right, researchers want to share Denise with other medical students. They also want to study Denise's long-term impact on students as they take clinical rotations in psychiatry and graduate from medical school.
While students type their questions and mostly get a typed response from Denise, the virtual interaction helps them think through what to ask and the best way to ask it. In fact, Denise tells them when she doesn't understand. To enhance Denise's inter-actability, MCG is sharing unanswered questions with collaborators at the University of Florida, to see if maybe she should respond. As in life, sometimes the problem is just a matter of phrasing.
Studies show that front-line providers, such as family medicine physicians, don't feel comfortable assessing suicide risk. In countries with some of the highest suicide rate, such as Japan and Hungary, targeted provider education has helped decrease rates.
Warning signs of suicide include unrelenting low mood, hopelessness, desperation, anxiety, withdrawal, sleep problems, increased alcohol and/or other drug use, impulsiveness, taking unnecessary risks and threatening suicide or expressing a strong wish to die, according to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

In 1835, Lord Marcus Sandys returned from India, and asked Lea and Perrins to prepare a sauce from a recipe he had brought back from India. Lea & Perrins thought the result was terrible. They sent the barrel they had made for themselves to the cellar.
About 2 years later while 'spring cleaning', they came across the wooden barrel, and decided to taste it again before throwing it out. They found that the sauce had mellowed, and was delicious. They purchased the recipe from Sandys, and began to sell it commercially in 1838.
During the WW II, vats of Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce were stored at local pubs, causing angry scenes as locals assumed they were full of beer (which was unavailable at the time).

- In a weird twist of fate, I wish that the Chargers were in contention to land Peyton Manning.
- Survivor was extremely frustrating to watch last night. Never in my life did I want HD to be so real that I could literally punch someone's face on the other side. I'm speaking to you, Colton, you narrow-minded uncultured elitist jerk.
- Speaking of Survivor, a few seasons ago Eddie George's wife was a contestant. Recently he was in the passenger seat of an attractive female golf pro that was pulled over and arrested for DUI.
- There's something about AngiesList.com that I don't trust. I know the intent of paying weeds out fake or over-exaggerated reviews, but there's something about it that makes me raise an eye-brow.
- WifeGeeding started to count the number of words that DaughterGeeding knows, I think the count is somewhere around fifty-five.
- None of the surviving members of the Monkees will attend Davie Jones' funeral. They are afraid their presence will ruin the service for his family. I think that's some true friendship and must be hard for all of them to not attend.
- We got a birth announcement in the mail, and the picture of the baby had the umbilical cord still attached. I'm thinking they should have used pictures without that scabby looking thing.
- While flipping channels last night, we landed on the Texas version of Storage Wars. It was interesting to see a show about the area I live in, but it was a bit shocking to see former Cowboy Roy Williams (the one that's a biscuit shy of being a line-backer) actually be part of one of the shows. In one segment, one guy actually drove to Tyler to get a gun appraisal.
- Scientists aren't sure the color pink actually exists.
- The new iPad is heavier and thicker, but has fancier graphics. I think Apple can sell a turd in a box and people will still camp out.

- I think it's time to get involved with the Syria situation.
- If you are into that new Taco Bell Dorito taco and want to grab one at midnight, find the nearest one here.
- The Republicans are where I was back in 2004. My vote for Kerry was more a vote against Dubya than it was for Kerry. I don't think the Republicans have a candidate they really want to support, they just want to get Obama out of office.

Demeter is the only ecological association that has built up a network of individual certification organisations world-wide. In 1997 Demeter-International was founded for closer co-operation in the legal, economic and spiritual spheres. Presently Demeter International has 18 members and 6 guest members from Demeter organisations from Europe, America, Africa and New Zealand. Thus Demeter-International represents around 5.000 Demeter farms with nearly 150.000 hectares in more than 50 countries.
Demeter-International e. V. is a non profit organisation and its member organisations work together in the spirit of an international confederation with democratic principles. Membership requires a functioning Demeter certification programme. Associations which support the objectives of Demeter-International can be elected as associated members. Its basis is the Biodynamic® agriculture method, originated by Rudolf Steiner in his "Agriculture Course" given in Koberwitz in 1924, and developed further in practice and research.

Nice add on but sometimes the alert does not close and remains on the screen (one line); closing firefox still has this alert on screen and firefox held active - you need to go to task manager then to kill firefox to release it.
Would be nice to see a fix.
Excellent looking theme, but removing the fav icon from the URL toolbar removes the ability to drag the fav icon to the desktop to make a bookmark shortcut. Also non standard toolbar buttons don't have frame (don't know if this second part could be fixed).
Thank you for bringing back an increased level of function to FF3. The AwesomeBar isn't awesome - it is incredibly inept. Thanks harikaried.

text: SNC 2D0 KANTHARAJAH CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION The case of the "Bad Beverages" CSI Agent Name: __________________ BACKGROUND: You and your CSI team arrive at a homicide scene where 2 individuals, Bob and Betty, are found dead. One man, Bill, is hospitalized due to mild intoxication but he will survive, and Brittany is alive and well. All 4 individuals were at a party and had consumed various types and amounts of beverages. Apparently, somebody contaminated the beverages with highly toxic chemicals containing sulfates, chloride and iron ions. You need to determine which drinks were contaminated and with what type of chemical ions. Remember, Bob and Betty died. Bill is ill and Brittany is fine. Also, Bob never drank fruit juice because he is allergic to citrus fruits. Consumption of all 3 chemical ions lead to death. Consumption of at least one will lead to mild intoxication. The following drinks were served at the party: orange juice, ginger ale, sprite, lemonade and water. You will work in pairs only. You will submit ONE mini-lab report per pair, typed! There are 3 special testing solutions that can be used to help detect the presence of those toxic Sulfates, Chloride and Iron Ions: Testing Solution A detects for Chloride Testing Solution B detects for Sulfates Testing Solution C detects for Iron First you must determine what a positive test result will look like for each 'toxic' ion. Use the chart below to help guide you with this. Table 1: Positive tests for Toxic Ions – What will the toxic ion look like when it reacts with the testing solution. Indicate what happens – (3 Marks) Testing Solution A Testing Solution B Testing Solution C Chemical with Chloride ions Chemical with Sulfate ions Chemical with Iron ions SAFETY: No eating or drinking in the lab at all times Chemicals are harmful, toxic and poisonous Wear Safety goggles at all times Keep pipettes in the correct containers and do not squirt Dispose all chemicals in the WASTE BEAKER SNC 2D0 KANTHARAJAH PURPOSE: To determine the presence of ions in 6 unknown solutions/drinks QUESTION: Which beverages did Bob, Betty, Bill & Brittany consume at the party? MATERIALS: Beverages (Bottled water, Club Soda, Orange Juice, Kool Aid, Coke, 7 Up; pipettes; Microwell Plates; Safety Goggles; Testing Solution A: Silver Nitrate, Testing Solution B: Barium Chloride, Testing Solution C: Potassium Thiocyanate METHOD: Design a fair and safe procedure that effectively helps you to solve the crime (without wasting chemicals). (10 Marks) Include a diagram (of your spot plate) to demonstrate how you will set up your "tests" (2 Marks) OBSERVATIONS: Create a proper chart to record your results. It must have a table title (Table 2: …) and be drawn neatly with a ruler and in pencil. Describe any changes when you react the beverages with the testing solutions. Use + / - signs to show your results as well as any colour changes (10 Marks) Conclusion & Discussion: Answer the following questions (8 Marks) 1. Which possible drinks did Bob, Betty, Bill and Brittany consume? Organize your answer clearly in a chart (4 x 2 marks = 8 Marks) Lab Skills (set up, clean up and safety) (4 Marks) Your mini - lab write up for this investigation will be simple and short. It must include the following information: a. Title page (Full name, course, Purpose & Scientific Question) b. Procedure (12 marks) c. Observation Tables (Positive Ions test & Testing of drinks) (10 Marks) d. Conclusion table (8 marks) e. Skills (4 marks) Do not include any more information than required please -- 2 typed pages maximum excluding title page. Thank you!

One man writes Linux drivers for 352 USB webcams
A LONE HOBBYIST programmer sitting at his home in France is responsible for adding 352 USB webcams to the list of those supported by Linux. He tells the INQUIRER about this often unknown and unrecognised achievement.
Near three years ago, I purchased the cheapest USB webcams -actually, one pair- I could find at the time, without taking into consideration whether those webcams worked with Linux or not. I ran one desktop PC with Win2K and one of the webcams was plugged to that box. I quickly found out several things: first, "Made in China" webcams surely are cheap, but that comes at a price of often having no support web site, no physical address of the manufacturer, and no updates to its drivers. The Win2K drivers for the "DigiGR8" 301P had apparently a memory leak under Win2k, forcing me to reboot the win2k box on a daily basis. Basically it just stopped working after a dozen hours of continuous use, and rebooting was the only solution.
I then concluded I had enough with Win2K and decided to install my Linux distro of choice -back then Sun Microsystem's ill-fated Java Desktop System for Linux R2. It soon became evident that the device was a power-sucking brick as far as Linux compatibility was concerned.

I'd buy him a beer
...and pizza, of course
What an achievement!
Mais non, il est Français !
So you'd have to offer him a French beer -- say, http://www.kronenbourg.com/
As for the pizza... I would recommend something else for a French. Say:
- Saumon fumé et son coulis à la ciboulette
- Côtelettes de veau de grain à l'effeuillage d'épinards, sauce porto et chèvre
- Côtelette de canard grillée sauce forestière
- Cuisses de grenouilles à la provençale (persillade)

Access to source code was not the issue, because that was already available—through platforms such as Minix or, if they really had cash to shell out, by obtaining a source license for AT&T Unix. Therefore, the notion that early Linux programmers were motivated primarily by the ideology that software source code should be open because that is a better way to write it, or because it is simply the right thing to do, is false.

WATERLOO REGION — The cost to taxpayers for municipal employee pensions jumped from about $27 million in 2008 to $36 million in 2011.
That includes staff, firefighters and police in Cambridge, Kitchener, Waterloo and the Region of Waterloo, excluding city libraries, according to information cities provided to The Record.
Wages increased 12 per cent.
"Is it fair for taxpayers to fund a pension for city workers when taxpayers do not have a plan of their own," said Mike Magreehan, co-organizer of a forum about public pensions in Waterloo earlier this month.
Magreehan and others argue it isn't.
But members and officials say a $10 billion Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System (OMERS) deficit is being managed by rate and benefit changes and that the pensions should be maintained.
"OMERS has no problem paying the premiums in the short term and the long term," said Mike Robinson, OMERS manager of client services.
He said the deficit will be addressed within 15 years through a combination of rate increases and benefit changes.
Cities must share the cost of OMERS contributions 50-50 with employees if they want to offer a pension plan. They can't get out of the program unless all their members agree.
Fred Hahn, president of the Canadian Union of Public Employees, said instead of abolishing OMERS, the emphasis should be on achieving better pensions for everyone. "We don't want pension plans just for our workers, we want good pensions for all of us."
About 230,000 of OMERS's 430,000 members belong to CUPE, including many employees of the local cities.
A majority of most cities' operating budgets are spent on wages and benefits for their employees, including the City of Waterloo, which spends about 56 per cent of its budget on compensation.
Last year the retirement system in Waterloo cost $3.3 million, up 35 per cent over four years and more than the 24 per cent in Cambridge and 33 per cent in Kitchener and the region during that time.
Police pensions, funded by regional taxpayers, soared, with pension contributions jumping 44 per cent in four years.
"The numbers tell the story," said Bill Tufts of advocacy group Fair Pensions for All.
Municipal governments have limited control over OMERS, though they do have influence through the board that decides rates which is made up of both employer and employee members. They have more control over collective agreements with staff for wage increases.
Coun. Karen Scian helped organize the OMERS forum and said Waterloo was the first local city to negotiate a contract with staff that didn't award a three per cent increase in wages each year.
"For six years we've been very aggressive with our agreements," she said. "We were the first municipality to break the three per cent barrier."
The average cost of a municipal employee does continue to increase, even as the number of full-time employees goes down.
Most of the increase is driven by OMERS costs and the cost of other benefits.
Average cost per employee increased the most in Kitchener, by 16 per cent to $77,640 last year.
In Waterloo it went up 11 per cent to $81,697.
For the region that cost went up 11 per cent to $87,094.
In Cambridge the cost has gone up nine per cent to $81,789.

The Worst Car In the History Of The World - Top Gear - BBC Top Gear: The Worst Car in the History of the World will be released on DVD, Blu-Ray and digital download on Monday 19th November 2012 Get your copy here - http://www.bbcshop.com/search?q=top+gear+worst+car+dvd&cm_mmc=bbc+shop-_-TG -_-youtube-_-Tg+worst+car+dvd Jeremy Clarkson and James May will present their opinions on The Worst Car in the History of the World in a brand new, all exclusive Top Gear DVD. Jeremy and James travel to the North of England to name and shame the most rubbish cars in the entire WORLD. It's a labour-intensive affair, filled with heated debates, giant cranes, James being locked in his own car boot and...Jeremy being tied to a tree. But don't be fooled, it's not all about terrible cars -- to appreciate the stinkers you have to revel in some good ones too -- like the 4.5 litre Ferrari 458 Spider, Toyota's GT86 and the £340,000 Lexus LFA running shoulders with a Mercedes SLS AMG. As they are up North, the boys invite The Stig's Yorkshire cousin to be a guest driver. Putting his whippet to one side he throws the BMW M5 round a gymkhana course before testing out a couple of Transatlantic challengers with Jeremy and James. Things, you won't be surprised to hear, don't go according to plan. The debate about The Worst Car in the History of the World continues while the boys play a few rounds of golf. But that doesn't go according to plan either. They even put their own cars -- past and present --into the reckoning. That ends badly too. The rest of the time up North is spent arguing over the great and the awful from Peugeot, Ford, Mahindra, FSO, Alfa Romeo, Rolls Royce, Porsche, Citroen, Saab and many more. There's also a special surprise fate in store for the car picked as the biggest loser...

Funny: The Belgariad
- When Belgarath remarks on Polgara's sympathy to Mandorallen's love life:
Belgarath: Polgara spent too many years associating with the Wacite Arends. They were as bad or worse than the Mimbrates. You can't wallow in that kind of sentimentality for that long without some of it rubbing off. Fortunately it hasn't totally blotted out her good sense. She's only occasionally girlish and gushy. If you can avoid her during those seizures, it's almost as if there were nothing wrong with her.
- After Garion manages to make the rock move with the Will and the Word by saying "Push!" we have this exchange:
Belgarath: Push?
Garion: You said to say push.
Belgarath: I said to push. I didn't say to say push.
Garion: It went over. What difference does it make what word I used?
Belgarath: It's a question of style. Push sounds so—so babyish. After all, Garion, we do have a certain dignity to maintain. If we go around saying "push" or "flop" or things like that, no-one's ever going to take us seriously.- This was after he moved it once by "lifting" from the bottom...and sinking himself to the shoulders into the ground because he didn't brace himself to get leverage.
- Another rock-related scene, when Garion leaps in to help Belgarath stop rocks being rolled down on the party.
Belgarath: Did I ask for help? Do I look like an invalid?
Garion: There's another rock coming.
Belgarath: Don't change the subject. I think you're getting above yourself, young man.
Garion: Grandfather! (telekinetically hurls rock away)
Belgarath: Tacky, Garion, very tacky. You don't have to throw them all the way to Prolgu, you know. Stop trying to show off... fine, as long as you're here anyway, but stick to your own rocks. You throw me off-balance.
Garion: I just need a little practice.
Belgarath: You need instruction in etiquette, too. You don't just leap in with help; it's very bad form.
Garion: Another rock coming. Do you want to get it, or shall I?
Belgarath: Don't get snippy, young man. - In the Malloreon, Garion has matured and learned a bit more about the style of sorcery. Then he goes and creates a door by saying the mystical Word "Door". Much to Beldin's horror.
- Later on, when he and 'Zakath are "competing" in a tourney, he tries to reinforce his lance so it won't break. He's distracted and can't think of a suitable word, so he says, "make it that way." Which ends with it working too well, as in his lance was throwing opponents out of their saddles without even touching them.
- From The Malloreon, after Garion has stolen the boat at Lake Karand (and argued with Silk as to whether it was stealing or just borrowing, and fielded complaints about the boat being ugly):
Belgarath: (speaking of the Grolim they've captured) What did you hit him with?
Garion: My fist.
Belgarath: Use an axe next time, you almost killed him!
Garion: (speaking to everyone) Does anyone else have any complaints? Why don't we just pile them all up right now? - Ce'Nedra's Big "NO!" definitely counts — even more so because Garion initially had no idea what caused it.
- For this exchange to make sense, keep in mind the following: Angaraks worship Torak. In the first series, Belgarion KILLED Torak. Belgarion is at a gala on Angarak soil.
Angarak Noble: Torak's Beard, I— (said as a curse)
Belgarion: He didn't have one.
Angarak Noble: Pardon me?
Belgarion: Torak. He didn't have a beard.
Angarak Noble: (turns pale) You mean the stories are true? - Another extremely funny moment happens when Ce'Nedra goes into labor. Garion's brain clicks to "Off". By the time Polgara arrives, he's about to start breaking furniture to throw into the fireplace. Fortunately, she recognizes the problem and sends him away until the business is finished.
Polgara: Oh, it's going to be one of those.
- Killing a god was a big deal, but becoming a father? Brain-breaker. Subverted with the salvation of reality. When his daughter is born, he gathers his son and goes back to sleep at the other end of the castle until it's over.
- The group needs to get information from a simple worker. Silk's not available, so Durnik takes the helm. His first move is to order Belgarath around like a servant.
- A beautiful one happens, right at the end of The Malloreon. Geran is a bored two-year-old and Garion wants to keep him entertained... so he hands his son the Orb of Aldur, the blue gem that eats Gods for breakfast. And then, when he takes the Orb away from Geran, the Orb grumbles in Garion's ear for the next hour.
Beldin: That's really very disturbing, Garion. You've turned the most powerful object in the universe into a child's plaything.
- One exchange from The Belgariad: An assassin who had been tailing the party and trying to kill them for most of the series up to this point attempted to lunge at and kill Silk... while they were standing near the parapets of a city built on a mountaintop. The consequences are predictable. The two of them actually fought for several moments Neo/Agent Smith style, with Garion the only witness.
Belgarath: (upon reaching the site of the fray) Where is he?
Silk: Last I saw... trying to learn to fly. (a loud crash of a body hitting rocks far, far below) He wasn't doing it very well.
Belgarath: Maybe it'll come to him in time.
Silk: He doesn't really have all that much time (a second and final impact echoes from below) Does bouncing count?
Belgarath: I don't think so.
Silk: Then I'd say he didn't learn in time (starts to walk away, staring up at the stars) What an absolutely beautiful night! - Also, there's exactly one week between Lelldorin's summons to Riva and him actually getting there. His explanation of what happened during that week (he fled the country with his Mimbrate girlfriend-turned-wife) to Garion is one of the series' funnier moments, reaching Crowning status halfway through with "the priest had it coming, though..." Considering that Arendia was a homage to English/French Romance (in the traditional sense), it's no surprise that he managed that in only a week. It both plays straight and mocks it at the same time.
- Garion meets a commoner in a Mallorean tavern:
Commoner: Watch yer fate.
Garion: (alarmed) Fate?
Commoner: Fate. Them thangs you got on the end of yer laigs. - Queen Layla's is shared with the Sendarian royal children when they all work together to reduce the Tolnedran Ambassador to tears of frustration as he tries to persuade her to allow the Tolnedrans to take over the "chore" of administering the main port of the country. He assumes that since she's a woman, she's stupid, so she puts on an astonishing imitation of The Ditz. Then two of the children interrupt with an argument about a string of beads, and the youngest prince caps it off with a jam-smeared face — that Layla wipes clean with the treaty.
- Mandorallen manages one that lasts for roughly 2 pages in the twenty-seventh chapter of the Seeress of Kell, the funniest bit for this troper being when he 'misses' the floor when casting his gauntlet in challenge and 'accidentally' hits an offensive young baron in the face.
- Also worthy of note is Velvet's response to Garion's epic There Was a Door moment.
Velvet: After all, there are so many fragile things around. You know, windows, doors, people, the city of Rak Hagga...
- Near the end of The Malloreon, a Mimbrate aristocrat insults Lelldorin (of Asturia, the most bitter enemy of Mimbre), who is also the friend of Mandorallen (also a Mimbrate). Mandorallen's response qualifies for a crowning moment of Awesome as well as Funny:
Mandorallen: My lord, I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offense against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possible that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?
- The entire exchange continues for another page and a half. This can be considered something of an encore or "victory lap" for Mandorallen, who was probably the most chagrined of all the original Belgariad heroes at having to sit out most of The Malloreon.
- When Belgarath and Silk return from their sidequest to rejoin the group, Belgarath has a mysteriously broken arm and Silk is sporting a slightly malicious grin. Efforts to find out what transpired are hampered by Silk breaking down in hysterical laughter when Belgarath finally grudgingly admits that a tree fell on him. Polgara is distinctly unimpressed.
- At the very end of Seeress of Kell, after everything is over, Silk and Garion are chatting about what they're going to do now that the course of the world is back on track. (paraphrasing)
Silk: So what are you going to do now?
Garion: I'm going to be very busy being a father. The Prophecy said to expect a large amount of daughters.
Silk: Garion, there comes a time when women are past childbearing age.
Garion: Do you remember Xbel? (a youthful dryad [tree nymph]) Do you think she's past childbearing age?
Silk: Of course not.
Garion: Silk, Xbel is over 300 years old. Trees live a long time you know. Ce'Nedra's a dryad too.
Silk: Well then maybe you'll get too old to... (looks at Belgarath who had his kids at the age of 4000) Oh my! I guess you do have a bit of a problem. - Every instance of a character, particularly Barak, telling Mandorallen that he REALLY needs to sort out his nickname of "The Bastard of Vo Mandor" in The Belgariad ALWAYS manages to crack you up.
Barak: You're going to have to do something about that one of these days.
Mandorallen: It would seem so. - Another good one is when Mandorallen recovers from his fear and starts kicking ass but less recklessly... for a few pages, anyway.
- Barak and every other character has commented on this.
Mandorallen: They cannot be over a hundred. Shall we attack them?
Barak: One of these days you and I are going to have to have a long talk about a few things.- And this exchange:
Mandorallen: Then we must teach them to fear our trail and avoid it.
Barak: You're falling back into your old habits.
Mandorallan: (after a Curb-Stomp Battle) We must seek them out. Better to destroy them now.
Barak: He's definitely backsliding.- And here:
Mandorallen: All else failing, we must of necessity resort to main force. (starts putting on his armor)
Barak: You're backsliding again.- However, Mandorallen at least recognizes some limits:
Mandorallen: We are some distance from our own forces, Your Majesty. I pray thee, be moderate in thine address. Even I might experience some difficulty in facing the massed legions of all Tolnedra. (Note: the Tolnedran Empire has the largest and best-trained military on the entire continent, and all of it was at that battlefield.) - Silk has been at the Market and basically ripping off everyone there. Despite making an extraordinary profit, he is moody and irritated because he can't tell who "won" in a trade for a perfume bottle that he doesn't know the value of. He takes it anyway because he didn't want the merchant to know he doesn't know its value. To solve the dilemma, he gives the bottle to Polgara who calls it a "princely gift". Silk couldn't figure out if she was serious or not and stomps away, muttering about Rivans and their deceptiveness.
- When the group gets captured... again, Silk picks the locks of the jail cells, complaining about how it's the rust's fault it's taking such a long time. Then, in a moment of necessity, Belgarath turns around and opens a lock with magic
Silk: When we've got some leisure, I'll want to talk to you about that.
Belgarath: You were having such a good time with the locks that I didn't want to interfere. - When Garion starts experimenting with his new powers and manage to bury himself in the ground up to the neck. After unsuccessfully sending his pet colt to look for help (got distracted by a particular patch of grass), he was stuck there for half the day before Silk and Hettar finds him.
Silk: How in the world did you manage to do that?
Garion: I don't want to talk about it.
Hettar: He probably can do many things that we can't. The thing I can't understand is why he'd want to do it.
Silk: I'm positive he has a good reason for it.
Hettar Do you think we should ask him?
Silk: It's probably very complicated. I'm sure simple men like you and me wouldn't be able to understand it.
Hettar: Do you suppose he's finished with whatever it is he's doing?
Silk: We could ask him, I suppose.
Hettar: I wouldn't want to disturb him, it could be very important.
Silk: It almost has to be.
Garion: Will you please get me out of here?!
- Extra funny is brought here by the fact that up until this point, Hettar's role as The Quiet One has been played absolutely straight.
- In this exchange, we realize how stupid it is to insult a Cherek:
Barak: I am Barak, Earl of Trellheim, kinsman to King Anheg of Cherek, and I see that certain nobles in Arendia have even fewer manners than they have brains.
Sir Haldorin: The Lords of Arendia are not impressed by the self-bestowed titles of the pig-sty kingdoms of the north.
Barak: I find your words offensive, friend.
Haldorin: And I find thine ape face and scraggly beard amusing.
Barak: (proceeds to effortlessly knock the knight unconscious with one hit) Would anyone else like to comment about my beard? - Belgarion forcing Mandorallen and Nerina to get over their wangst and marrying them literally at swordpoint. With a doily on her head.
- The first royal decree of King Fundor the Magnificent: "I prithee, good sirs, have a care for thine finery. I have just manured the field you are kneeling in."
- Polgara attempting to scare Sadi into submission. Sadi, however, is stoned out of his mind and thinks her projection is "pretty.
- This:
The banquet featured a number of exotic dishes that Garion could not put a name to and several which he did not even know how to eat. A deceptively innocent-looking rice dish was laced with such fiery seasonings that it brought tears to his eyes and sent his hand clutching for his water goblet.
"Belar, Mara, and Nedra!" Durnik choked as he also groped about in search of water. So far as he could remember, it was the first time Garion had ever heard Durnik swear. He did it surprisingly well.
"Piquant," Sadi commented as he calmly continued to eat the dreadful concoction.
"How can you eat that?" Garion demanded in amazement.
Sadi smiled. "You forget that I'm used to being poisoned, Belgarion. Poison tends to toughen the tongue and fireproof the throat." - The scene mentioned under Disposable Woman definitely fits in a Gallows Humor sort of way. Belgarath's amusement as Ctuchik searches desperately for his victim, and his total horror when realizing the Father of the Gods was protecting her sell the scene.
- Hettar notes that the horses are getting tired, but then adds that they may be lying in order to get some time to rest. Silk, astonished, asks if horses really lie, and Hettar confirms that they do all the time. There's a moment's pause, and then Silk bursts out laughing, his faith in the world restored.
- During The Malloreon, Barak, Hettar, Mandorallen and Lelldorin, all of whom are a little enthusiastic about picking fights and four of the biggest badasses on the planet, are left out of the main adventure. So, they go looking for a way to help Garion, and are described as, 'a natural disaster, looking for somewhere to happen'.

This is a fashion-forward, runway inspired package targeted to teens. It puts a fresh design spin on a well loved novel, which remains the same as the lush, romantic and wildly passionate Wuthering Heights that has been cherished for centuries. It is suitable for children aged 12 years and up. Lush, romantic, and wildly passionate: Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights", the tale of two soul mates separated by class and society, has seduced readers for generations and inspired countless adaptations. Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff - the gypsy boy her father brought home to their estate of Wuthering Heights - have been inseparable since childhood. But as Catherine grows up and becomes a lady, she spurns Heathcliff for the wealthy and genteel Edgar Linton. She never stops loving him, however...with a passion that not even death can diminish.
Born in 1818, the British author and poet Emily Bronte is best known for Wuthering Heights, originally published under the male pseudonym Ellis Bell. Wuthering Heights was published in 1848, and has become a celebrated and classic work of English literature. Fashion illustrator Sara Singh's have appeared in such prominent publications as Vogue, The New York Times, and House Beautiful.

I know I am making every effort to use all my tickets instead of giving them to clients.
The media has given the NHL a free pass. I'm not sure I understand why exactly. It would seem to be a good story to write that would sell a lot of papers. Basically, the NHL took advantage of the CoG (an easy thing to do it appears), and not by just a little bit. The CoG built an arena for the NHL team, gave up a $50M payment from Ballsilly when it decided not to support his bid in the BK, and on top of that actually gave the NHL $50M over the last two years. People put their careers on the line based upon representations by the NHL. The CoG dedicated a tremendous amount of staff time to all things Coyotes. I mean, it is really sicking.
I can only hope some of this is brought to the light of day sometime soon.
But let's not expect Sunnicks to write the article.
The guy is lost and doesn't have the brain power to actually connect the dots and do the hard work of creating the time line necessary to tell the story.
Having said all that, it was nice to watch the game in front of a full house yesterday. And I would say less than 20% appeared to by Flame fans. And some of them already come to Coyote games and wear Coyote sweaters unless the Flames are visiting. One has to ask why yesterday, but in a week for the Wild game it looks like less than 12k tickets are sold thus far. I scratch my head when it comes to attendance issues.
The problem with Sunnucks is that his main sources have always been one of the carpetbaggers who were trying to buy the team with as little investment of their own money as possible. They duped Sunnucks and several on Glendale city council.

Recent reviews:
July 14, 2014 - July 2014, very pleased with them. They look beautiful on our front deck.
September 16, 2013 - Nice...NO concerns
August 4, 2013 - I have bought many flags in the past and was VERY happy to see a site that actually did something for our veteran's so what a better place to buy an American made product. I think they are pretty well made for the price. The flags have hemmed ends and the material is sharp and crisp. Should last awhile. As for the mounting bracket...it does the job and you don't have to use it if you don't want to.
August 1, 2013 - The material of the flags is weak, the brackets for all 3 flags are put together, I rather have 3 separate flags and brackets, they sure are pretty though, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE USA made items........I wouldn't of ordered it, if it was made any where else !!! GO USA
June 1, 2013 - Mounted perfectly on our front porch all three flags are flying in the breeze and look wonderful. Ready for the 4th of July!!
