If you've ever wondered what the taut methamphetamine drama Breaking Bad would look like as an innocent plastic brick diorama, ponder no longer. Redditor GaryIsYouDotCom recently posted his friend's reconstruction of the show's state-of-the-art clandestine drug lab.
There's no laundromat above it, but there are recreations of Gale's coffee machine, Walt's pure blue crystal meth, chicken merchant Gustavo Fring, and that episode where Walter goes bonkers trying to kill the fly. Blast some TV on the Radio while you ogle this, and then go into the bathroom and practice your Heisenberg face.
And for more Walter White à la LEGO, check out Orion Pax's model of the infamous RV.

(케이타운러브 를 보시고 오더하신다고 하면 음료수를 무료로 받습니다.)
When I started yelp, I did it with the intentions of finding restaurants like you Olympic Cheonggukjang. Places that arent mainstream enough that everyone knows about.Places that are small but sustain themselves with DANGOLs (repeat loyal customers).
This restaurant is very small, and located a pretty unfrequented building. However, their tiny hole in the wall restaurant is kept tidy and clean. Their food is very clean in two ways. The veggies and banchans are delicious and clean (fresh). Their main dishes taste fresh and clean (no msg). Its as if its cooked with nothing but the love of your mother.
Even their kimchis were excellent. I've never been so satisfied by just kimchis in my life. Now I know what my mother means when she tells me she could eat just plain rice and great kimchi everyday for the rest of her life. (minus the need for super deodorent from all the garlic and spices that will eventually eminate from your pits)
I had their sullung tang and it was rich, creamy, and thick. Just the way I like it. $8-ish after tax is well priced. I will definitely try everything on their menu. I hear they deliver too.
One thing I noticed is that people ordered their food over the phone before they got there. Maybe they take a tad longer than average making their food… probably because they are busy squeezing more love from the love cow teet in the back.
I dont know if I could ever get sick of El Taurino.
My favorite is the al pastor tostada with red sauce. And of course some horchata to soothe the fire in my mouth hehe. Their green sauce is really good too!
I also love their carne asada tortas and nachos.. mmmmmm…
I think they're open till 2am.. maybe 3am? I can never remember… but it always gets PACKED around 1am from people coming back from clubbing.
I think El Taurino is one of the MUST TAKE.. when friends are visiting from out-of-state
This place is awesome! There are various different activities to occupy all age groups: hiking trails, the Travel Town Museum, and the Observatory. And best of all these are free!
Certainly there are activities for which you can pay (like the zoo), but why would you? Unless you have a feisty little one that needs to see the animals then you should pay.
There's also always parking available (although the spot may be a bit of a walk from your destination), and it's free. I would recommend avoiding here on major holidays though (like July 4th) because it gets extremely crowded.
Built in 1929, Chapman Plaza AKA Chapman Park Market is a major shopping and dining structure on 6th Street, between S Alexandria Ave and S Kenmore Ave (yelp.com/biz_photos/chap…). It's considered one of the main attractions in the Wilshire District of Koreatown. At the time of it's inception, it was a new concept where Hollywood movie stars could go for one stop shopping of fresh produce, meat, and dry goods. If my memory serves me correct, this location had the world's first drive-thru grocery store/market, as it served the wealthy families of the Fremont Place, Windsor Square, and Hancock Park neighborhoods of LA who drove to get their groceries. An entire central courtyard was set aside for automobile parking.
Fast forward 85 years later and the outdoor complex is still busy as ever for the many Angelinos that live nearby. The historic building caters mostly to the Korean population, but I can attest that people of all cultures flock there these days for it's delicious dining and trendy nightlife. The building was restored in 1989 to include second story offices, while still having one of the finest examples of Spanish Revival architecture in LA. Originally, the building was built for Charles Chapman (known as the Orange King of CA) and his Chapman brothers who were major land owners. Ever hear of Chapman University? YUP, it's one in the same.
* Kang Hodong Baekjeong (yelp.com/biz_photos/kang…). Their second location in OC is set to open in Buena Park at the Village Circle on Beach.
* Toe Bang (yelp.com/biz_photos/toe-…). The only location in K-town that you can find a Water Wheel.
* The Gogi (yelp.com/biz/the-gogi-lo…). Only been here a couple times, but it seems to be the AYCE alternative for those who are impatient to wait for Kang Hodong Baekjeong.
* Cafe Bliss (yelp.com/biz/cafe-bliss-…). Tailored for those who don't favor Gaam, some of the foot traffic hits here, with karaoke rooms and a full bar present on the second floor.
* Gaam Restaurant and Lounge (yelp.com/biz/gaam-restau…). Still, one of the hottest places for the mid 20′s hipsters and FOB's in K-town. Music is bumping, with an outdoor patio on the top floor.
* K Pop Karaoke (yelp.com/biz/k-pop-karao…). The main noraebang within the complex, with a top notch system and above average service. It's a good place to drown that buzz before making the drive back home.
* Antique Cafe (yelp.com/biz/antique-caf…). I remember this place being a better cafe in the past, but even the hookah and desserts can't stop this place from being rated so poorly.
* Lighthouse Waffles & Cake (yelp.com/biz/lighthouse-…). Never been here since they took over Cake Salon Bosco a while back. For some odd reason, the coffee shops seem to tank at this plaza.
* Sake House by Hikari (yelp.com/biz/sake-house-…). Once, Kyoto Sushi, recently Bistro Sakana, and now Sake House by Hikari. Let's hope this Japanese infused sushi bar can stay open longer than it's predecessors.
I would really consider valet parking when it's busy and to press your luck with the meter parking around the block, if you can find a premier spot. Regardless, of it's issues, I'm always going to have very fond memories of Chapman Plaza. I had some great times when former businesses such as Intercrew Cafe and Bohemian Restaurant still held their ground, but now with a new generation of party goers hitting the scene, I imagine it'll be popular and busy as ever.

A Virginia man says a woman he met through a dating app came over to his house and stole his dog -- and that marks both the first and last time he intends to try online dating.
The 30-year-old Virginia Beach man told Virginia television station WTKR the woman started messaging him on a dating app called Skout, and he invited her to his house to watch a movie on Wednesday. The man told WTKR that he didn't want his name released.
The woman, a 22-year-old who went by the name Essence, kept going back and forth between the house and her car. At first, the man thought nothing of it, but the third time she left, she didn't come back, according to WTKR and WAVY.
And that's when the man noticed his dog, a Pomeranian named LaLa, was gone.
"I contacted her and said, 'Can you please bring my dog back? Why would you take (my) dog?'" the man told WTKR. She didn't answer and has deleted her profile on the dating site.
Virginia Beach police are investigating the dog's disappearance. And from now on, the man says he intends to meet potential dates in person, not online.

Ozon Titanium Flat Iron
Heather M.Tampa, FLHairBlackCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairNothing BetterI've owned several different irons, and the Ozon Titanium is by far the best I've owned. I've had a cheap revlon, a hot tools, a chi nano and also infrashine. don't believe all the hype about CHI. After feeling the quality feel to the Ozon, I realize the CHI one felt cheap and poor quality, which is strange since its twice the price. What a waste of time and money. I've owned my Ozon now for about 6 months and I use it daily. It gets the job done and just feels and looks like a better product. You absolutely cannot beat the price.posted Apr 5, 2011Link to this post
LindaOklahomaHairAuburnNormal HairHad It A YearI've had this iron for one year now. It is as awesome today as the day I received it! This iron is very smooth. I like that the heat is adjustable and it makes my hair smooth without burning. It has never snagged. I have used it on my hair when it was short as well as long. I've used it to create straight styles as well as some with a little volume, and wave. It is a great iron, I would recommend this one.posted Mar 29, 2011Link to this post
StaceyCanadaHairDark BrownCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairToo Bad...I had my eyes on this flat iron for a long time and finally decided to purchase, unfortunately I am super disappointed and will be sending it back today. It has a lightweight cheap feeling, it snagged my hair and overall I am not impressed. My hair was dried with the blow dryer and I had used a good product beforehand...still, not happy with it.
I think I will exchange it for a Sedu...posted Mar 15, 2011Link to this post -
WendyCleveland, OhioHairWhiteFine or Thin HairBest Decision For My Hair, Ever!Recently, my hair stylist flat ironed my hair after getting it cut. I received so many compliments that I thought it was time I buy a flat iron and try it myself. I checked out reviews and found the Ozon Titanium Flat Iron to be one of the best and highly recommended. Folica had the best price and I had it within days of ordering! It came with simple instructions for the novice like me and I was able to make my hair look great just after the first time I used it! I absolutely love it! (FYI my hair is on the thin side but is course and has body. I never thought flat ironing would make it look good. I was wrong. The flat ironing makes my hair look more luxurious and silky. This was the best decision I've made regarding my hair, ever!posted Feb 13, 2011Link to this post
ArdyHairBlondeOily HairDry HairLove Thiswow!! i love this flat iron!! i used to have a different flat iron that sucked then i ordered the ozon flat iron and i was in heaven, i loved it and i never want to go back to my old flat iron. it has rounded plates so u can make nice curls or waves. it runs threw my hair so smoothly! i would buy this flat iron if i were u. its perfect for all hair types. i love this flat iron and i would never use a different one.posted Jan 28, 2011Link to this post
EliseLos Angeles, CAHairBlondeColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairExtremely Satisfied User!I have tried flat iron after flat iron, hoping to find one that could straighten my hair without frying it. I have extremely fine hair and I was buying the cheaper flat irons and they would either not work very well or would completely fry my hair. I decided to look into a more expensive straightening iron and found the Ozon Titanium Flat Iron to have very positive reviews and was cheaper than the Chi which I also know is an extremely good straightening iron as well. This straightener is incredible. It allows me to straighten my fine hair without damaging it, it does not allow my hair to break or get frizzy like the others. I will recommend this straightener for anyone with fine hair. The spray that comes along with it that you get for free when you order it, is INCREDIBLE! I usually do not put any product in my hair because majority of the time, my hair becomes automatically oily. The spray allows your hair to stay straight throughout the day, does not cause it to be oily and even when you wake up in the morning, it is still straight and it has a very lovely scent to it compared to most products! You will not be disappointed with the Ozon Titanium Flat Iron!posted Dec 2, 2010Link to this post
EHairMedium BrownThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairKnow How Long It Will LastGood iron- does a decent job but lasts just under a year. Has a 1 year warranty, so I replaced it but the next one also lasted about 10 months. My sister has a ghd and its lasting her already 3 years. It warms up faster and does a slightly better job. The only disadvantage is that it smells a bit. Id rather have the ghd and not the constant need to replace it.posted Nov 7, 2010Link to this post
DebbieHairBlondeFine or Thin HairChemically Treated HairWell Worth The Money!Well worth the money. Instantly noticed the difference in quality compared to the cheap discount store ones. Works well, heats up in an instant, and makes my hair look GREAT!
I also got a free mini flat iron that I gave to my daughter in law for her birthday. She loves it.
You get what you pay for but I think I got a bit more.posted Aug 29, 2010Link to this post -
Faith H.New JerseyHairLight BrownOily HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairFabulous Straightenerive had this straightener for over a year and a half now and its still going strong. i use it with nexxus protexx heat protecting spray,and its great. there is no straightener thats better than this. i have fine wavy hair thats about mid shoulder blade, naturally dark blonde, but has been bleached blonde, medium brown, bright red, and almost black, so its had alot of chemical damage to it and this straightener doesnt add to the damage. keeps it straight in humidity too!posted Jul 27, 2010Link to this post
Haydee C.HairMedium BrownNormal HairColor Treated HairGreat For Normal HairIf your hair is not so thick, this is a great flat iron for you. I used it on the highest heat level and it was great.

WASHINGTON (AP) - An officer for the Central Intelligence Agency was among those killed in a suicide bombing at an Afghan intelligence office - the latest so-called "insider attack" in the war, according to one current and one former U.S. official.
The attack Saturday in Kandahar province killed four Afghan intelligence officials and two U.S. intelligence officers. One of the Americans has been identified as a female solider - 24-year-old Brittany B. Gordon, assigned to a military intelligence company.
A senior U.S. defense official and a former U.S. intelligence official said the other American was an officer working for the CIA. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to release the information on the record. The officer's name is being withheld.
NATO says the bomber was a member of Afghanistan's intelligence agency, but the Afghans deny that.
There was no immediate comment from the CIA.

Joseph Altuzarra's fall runway show is the last place we expected to find acid-green glitter and our go-to spring party look. But makeup artist Tom Pecheux says he "twisted glitter's arm to bring it somewhere minimal" and sure enough, the result was both sophisticated and cool. "When you think glitter you think of a disco queen, or va-va-voom, but I thought we should treat it like something very simple."
That meant an otherwise bare face, easy hair, and, of course, a Kate Moss reference. Learn how to cop the look, above.

New Kaolin-based Toothpaste for High-end Dental Work
Dentisse® Natural Reflection™ is a new brand of oral care toothpaste using a special refined kaolin (a natural white clay) cleaning and polishing agent to produce a healthier-looking smile. The kaolin-based formula is a low-abrasion, stain-prevention/removal system for giving smiles a shine and luster that indicate a healthy mouth.
Dentisse is a natural alternative to harsh, artificial chemical-based whiteners and polishers. It's way to pamper your mouth the way you would pamper your skin, nails, and hair, filling the need for a more natural, luxury oral care product.
Kaolin clay is a highly purified and specially refined to produce flat-surfaced particles with microscopic ridges that polish teeth to a micro-smooth luster. Bentonite, another natural clay, is used in the formula to give the toothpaste its creamy consistency. The minty flavor comes from pure, natural peppermint oil.
To view the science behind Dentisse, demonstrating its ability to provide excellent stain removal, high polish, and low abrasiveness, click here.

I just finished my 3rd year of an Honours Pure Mathematics degree at the University of Calgary. I have done research on applications of simplicial complexes to tetrahedron packing and contact number problems in sphere packings, non-standard models of Peano arithmetic, diagonal distance in quantum error correcting codes, asymptotic combinatorics of modal frames and game theory applications, nilpotent orbit varieties, and bicyclic convex 4-polytopes. I also defined a sequent calculus for dynamic topological logic, wrote a computational chemistry paper introducing the notion of Benzene aromarings, am collaborating with physicists on a black hole physics paper, and am involved in a photovoltaic systems engineering project. I am also currently writing a book on the Geometric Analysis of Convex Bodies which studies the theory of rectification, the connection between elliptic curves and lattice packings, non-congruent sphere packing kissing numbers, homothetic translative covering problems, totally separable sphere packings, and the Mahler conjecture. Mathematically, my main goal before I finish my undergraduate is to prove the Mahler conjecture for certain classes of convex 3-polytopes and 4-polytopes and to finish my book project.

High-Efficiency Stoves for Darfur Refugees
Roll over image to zoom in
2,000,000 people die each year from illness related to breathing smoke from cooking fires. This is equivalent to the entire AIDS epidemic and 3x as many annual deaths as malaria.
Poor Health: Cooking over an open fire is equivalent to smoking 2 packs of cigarettes a day. Women and children in developing countries are exposed each day to pollution from cooking smoke, up to 20 times the level recommended by the World Health Organization. Cook fires in poorly ventilated homes cause more than 3 deaths per minute. Exposure to cooking smoke leads to low birth weight, childhood pneumonia, tuberculosis, and a number of chronic illnesses.
Poverty: Families pay as much as a third of their income to purchase fuel for cooking. Cooking over open fires imposes high financial costs on families, especially the very poor, whose incomes of less than 2 dollars a day must be stretched to cover basic necessities.
Environment: Cook fires cause deforestation and climate change. Cook fires emit greenhouse gases laced with sunlight-absorbing black carbon, and hurry deforestation. Black carbon is the second greatest contributor to global warming, responsible for an estimated 18% of the Earth's rising temperature.
Safety: Women and girls face assault as they forage for fuel in conflict zones. Finding wood to cook meals is a daily struggle for many women around the world. Women and girls must walk many hours, several times a week, just to find a single tree with usable wood to fuel their fires. Outside the relative safety of refugee camps, they are vulnerable to acts of violence.
Clean cookstoves save lives, create economic opportunity and combat climate change.
Designed to optimize fuel-efficiency and reduce toxic emissions when cooking meals, a clean cookstove is one intervention that addresses almost all of the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals: ending poverty and hunger; gender equity; child health; maternal health; and environmental sustainability. For half the world's population, a clean cookstove means one less day of struggling to find enough wood to survive. It means increased safety, better health, less harm to the environment, a higher income, more time and increased employment.
Your caring and compassion saves lives.
Each stove costs $20, which covers the cost of materials as well as transport of the stove kits from India for assembly in Sudan by displaced Darfuris. Potential Energy is now working with a local partner to sell the stoves and build a sustainable project, which will allow them to help more women. Because each stove saves a woman almost $1 per day in firewood expenses, it pays for itself in less than a month. For women who cannot afford paying the full cost of the stove up front, they are offered the option to pay for the stove in installments and through savings groups. For women who cannot afford a stove at all, we continue to cover the full $20 cost of the stove through money raised from caring supporters like you. Thank you for all that you do!Report from the Field
May 2012: Our field partner, Sustainable Action Group, is currently finishing the assembly of 2,200 stoves and have started free distribution in the Zam Zam IDP camp. We are also collecting feedback from users in Ethiopia on a modified version of the stove and will have an Ethiopia Stoves Project up and running soon.
We envision a world where technology improves the lives of everyone equitably.
Potential Energy's mission is to adapt and scale technologies that improve lives in developing countries.

You are hereThe Dini Case
Texas Tech University biology professor Michael Dini is reportedly the target of a Justice Department inquiry for refusing to award letters of recommendations to students who deny human evolution. Proposed Textbook Disclaimer Bill Dies in Committee
House Bill 1397, sponsored by Representative Carmel Wells-Smith, was introduced in the Mississippi House of Representatives and referred to the Education Committee on January 20, 2003. On February 4 the bill died in committee when it missed the House's deadline for action. HB 1397 would have required the inclusion of a version of the Alabama evolution disclaimer in every textbook that discusses the subject. Wells-Smith introduced two antievolution bills in the 2002 legislative session, both of which also died in committee.
State Board Approves Biology Textbooks
On December 11, 2002 the South Carolina Board of Education voted 10-5 to approve a number of new biology textbooks for local adoption across the state next fall. Several board members had objected to the way evolution was presented in some of the books, but a motion to remove two biology texts from the list failed by a 9-6 vote. Some board members were quoted in a December 22 news story in the Charleston Post & Courier as opposing one book because its preface referred to "creation science" and "intelligent design" as "pseudoscience". Internet "Poll" on Teaching Evolution
A Georgia newspaper, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution has published the results of its December 2002 "Voice of Atlanta" internet survey regarding evolution education. The results cannot be considered either accurate or precise, since they are not based on a random sample of the population. In addition, the single question asked was somewhat ambiguous:
Do you agree or disagree: The theory of evolution should be taught in public schools to the exclusion of all other theories, such as creationism or "intelligent design." Textbook Disclaimer Bill Proposed
On February 3 this year's session of the Oklahoma state legislature will open. Among the bills scheduled to be introduced at that time is House Bill 1504, sponsored by Rep. Bill Graves. This bill would require an evolution disclaimer in every textbook which discusses the subject.
Similar bills have been introduced in Oklahoma in the past, but failed to pass. The complete text of the bill, available on the Oklahoma legislature's website, reads as follows: BE IT ENACTED BY THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA: Pages |

"All things share the same breath - the beast, the tree, the man. The air shares its spirit with all the life it supports."

The Native American Community, the University of Kansas Medical Center, and the American Lung Association, have utilized research methods such as focus groups, surveys, and Community Advisory Board meetings, to present the first culturally tailored internet website devoted to Native American lung health and smoking cessation.
The American Indian Health Research & Education Alliance is an alliance of organizations whose mission is to partner and collaborate with American Indian peoples, nations, communities, and organizations to improve the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being of American Indians throughout the United States through quality participatory research and educational programs.
As soon as The University of Kansas Cancer Center earned National Cancer Institute (NCI) designation in July 2012, Director Roy Jensen, M.D., set the next goal: even higher designation as a comprehensive cancer center. Jensen's hope is that by September 2016, when the KU Cancer Center applies for renewal of the grant that earned its original NCI designation, the application will be for comprehensive status.
The difference between the two types of designation is essentially the size, breadth and depth of the cancer center's research and educational expertise.

Swanstone Corporate Statement
For more than four decades, we have been a quiet leader in the kitchen and bath industry. Our high-quality products have always balanced durability, value and style. Innovation is one of our core values, and we have set a standard with our ability to invent. Now it's time to reinvent.
The Swan Story
For more than 40 years, we've been creating innovative and affordable solid surface products and materials for customers all over the world. It started in 1964, when we introduced the Swan Shell Shower, a doorless, shell-shaped shower that captured the spirit of its time.
The Shell Shower was the first in a long line of original kitchen and bath products from Swan, including the Circle Shower as well as the industry's first non-ceramic tile bathtub wall system.
In 1987, we introduced Swanstone to the world, first with a line of vanity tops and bowls. Swanstone quickly became known for its superior impact strength, heat resistance, and ability to resist scratches and stains. Consumers now had an elegant and durable solid surface material that was also affordable.
Since then, our Swanstone line has expanded to include a wide variety of kitchen sinks, countertops, tub and shower walls, and more. In 1994 we introduced the Swanstone 1/4" sheet program, offering even more flexibility to Swanstone customers. In 1997 we introduced a complete line of Swanstone products for the restaurant industry, including tabletops, countertops, vanity tops, mop service sinks and windowsills.
At Swan, we're committed to a policy of continuous improvement, to providing our customers with the highest quality products and most responsive customer service in the kitchen & bath industry. And we stand behind this commitment with some of the best warranties in the business.

How they drew it up: Reds, Bucs saw this coming
While Burnett is stingy at home, Bailey has dominated in Pittsburgh
Clint Hurdle has been waiting for this since he took over as the Pirates' manager following the 2010 season.
Instead of flirting with success like the past two seasons, Pittsburgh is in the thick of the chase for the National League Central crown with less than a week and a half to play. A winning season has been locked up, and a trip to the playoffs for the first time since 1992 seems all but certain.
Hurdle is excited for his team to be in its current spot, but getting into position is only half the battle.
"It's not finished," Hurdle said. "But it's heading in the right direction. I played my part, but we still have parts to play."
Among those parts is this weekend's crucial series at PNC Park against the Reds, who also have a division title in their sights. The Reds scored three runs in the ninth on the way to a 6-5, 10-inning win in the opener on Friday, but the two teams will be back at it again Saturday for the second of six games between the division rivals to close out the season.
After the current series, Cincinnati returns home to host the Mets, and Pittsburgh hits the road to take on the Cubs. The Pirates and Reds will then meet for the final series of the season at Great American Ball Park.
"We knew the schedule once it was handed out, then you just roll with it," Hurdle said. "But isn't it great how it all played out, both for the fans here and in Cincinnati?"
Those fans will have a chance to enjoy the most tightly contested division race in baseball. With eight games remaining for the Pirates, Reds and Cardinals, everything in the NL Central is yet to be decided. Cincinnati's dramatic win on Friday put the team in a second-place tie with Pittsburgh, marking the first time the Reds have been better than third since June 20. Meanwhile, St. Louis' win over Milwaukee gave the first-place Cardinals a two-game cushion.
Whichever teams don't win the NL Central appear destined to face each other in the NL Wild Card. Both the Reds and Pirates would prefer to avoid that fate and simply advance straight to the NL Division Series. However, at least one of the clubs will likely end up playing in the one-game Wild Card, and they would both rather do so at home.
That leaves a lot on the line entering Saturday and the final nine days of the season, and the magnitude of each game is understood in both the Reds' and Pirates' clubhouses.
"If I have to instill importance of this, they need to get another job," Reds manager Dusty Baker said of his players. "It's self-explanatory. We played the whole season to get to this. You look at the schedule and know it's probably going to get to this. It's here."
Reds: Bailey looks to continue PNC Park dominance
Before Reds pitcher Homer Bailey tossed a no-hitter at home on July 2 this season, he first accomplished the feat on the road against the Pirates in September last year. For the first time since, Bailey will take the mound at PNC Park, hoping to help Cincinnati take the first two games against the Pirates.
Although his no-hitter stands above the rest, it wasn't far off from the way Bailey has performed each time out on Pittsburgh's home field. In six career road starts against the Pirates, Bailey is 5-0 with a 1.48 ERA. Including his no-no, the 27-year-old right-hander has delivered three complete games -- two of which were shutouts.
In 45 innings pitched at PNC Park, Bailey has allowed just 22 hits and 12 walks while registering 31 punchouts.
Bailey will be making his third start against the Pirates this season, having gone 0-1 with a 3.65 ERA in the previous two. Most recently, despite 12 strikeouts, Bailey took the loss on July 21, when he gave up three runs on seven hits and a walk in 6 1/3 innings.
• Reds oufielder Billy Hamilton is 10-for-10 on stolen-base attempts since being called up on Sept. 2. He scored the game-tying run in the top of the ninth on Friday after stealing second. Hamilton previously represented the game-winning run twice in this month and also scored the go-ahead run in Wednesday's 13-inning win over the Astros.
Pirates: Burnett hopes for more home success
Pirates starter A.J. Burnett has been at his best at home this season. On Saturday against the Reds, the 36-year-old right-hander will take the mound at PNC Park for the final time during the regular season in 2013.
Although he's just 4-4 in 13 home starts this season, Burnett hasn't given up more than three earned runs in any of those outings. He also hasn't allowed a home run to a visiting batter in 36 1/3 innings, dating all the way back to May 29.
Burnett made his most recent home start on Monday, when he limited the Padres to two runs in 6 2/3 innings. He took the loss, though, as Pittsburgh was shut out by San Diego.
• Pirates left fielder Starling Marte, who didn't start the last two games because of the birth of his first child, is expected to be back in the lineup on Saturday.
• Pirates pitching notched eight strikeouts on Friday, giving Pittsburgh a franchise record with 1,195 punchouts. The previous mark of 1,192 was set last season.
Worth noting
• The Reds' win Friday evened the season series with the Pirates at seven games apiece. Pittsburgh still holds a 4-3 edge at PNC Park.
• Since facing a 6 1/2-game deficit in the NL Central on Aug. 6, the Reds have the second-best record in baseball at 27-15.
• The Pirates have dropped four of their last five entering Saturday.

text: Well, this is with Mesa 7.7 and classic r300. For quite some time, the developers focus on r300g, the Gallium3D driver and I think it's more interesting to track the performance of this driver every few months or so. There have been lots and lots of commits already since you benchmarked the driver a few weeks ago It wouldn't surprise me if Mesa 7.9 would default to r300g.

Victim identification
What is it?
Victim Identification is the term often given to the analysis of photographs and films depicting the sexual abuse of a child – known as child abuse material (CAM) – with the objective of locating the child and/or abuser seen in them.
Victim identification is a combination of image analysis and traditional investigative methods.
Image analysis is the examination of the digital, visual and audio content of those photographs and films for identification purposes. Clues can come from many places and in many forms, and it is the task of the victim identification specialist to retrieve those clues and piece them together using a range of specialized tools.
The results of this analysis of the virtual world will be crucial to the investigation that can then take place in the physical world.
Who does it?
Some or all of the acts of production, distribution and possession of child abuse material are illegal in many countries. As a result, authorization to gather and investigate it is restricted to law enforcement or government accredited organizations.
Often, sworn law enforcement officers and authorized civilian analysts work together in the field of victim identification, bringing together their diverse skills and experience to solve a case.
Due to the global nature of the Internet and its content, victim identification specialists work closely with their counterparts all over the world to ensure that clues that are unique, typical or easily recognizable in one country are not overlooked by another country.
Why do we do it?
Child sexual abuse is a reality in every society but one that is rarely spoken about and is largely invisible due to the social taboos surrounding it. The vast majority of child sexual abuse is not documented, mostly taking place behind closed doors in private settings such as the home.
Contrary to common conceptions of the crime and its perpetrators, the abuser is most often a person known to the child, such as a parent, uncle, neighbour or childcare professional.
When a person sexually abuses a child and documents the act of abuse for future sexual gratification or for sharing and trading with others via email and Internet, what is really being documented is evidence of a serious crime that it is the obligation of the police to investigate.
Photographs and films depicting child sexual abuse found on the Internet are not merely an online crime affecting virtual victims; they are representations of a real crime involving real people and real suffering.
Victim identification is a methodology that has emerged in recent decades out of a clear need to act upon child abuse material found circulating online and seized by the police from computers and other storage devices. Child Abuse Material is more likely to show the face of the victims of abuse rather than the abuser. This is a reality that dictates the victim-centric focus of image analysts.
Victim identification by specialized investigators aims to alleviate the suffering of the child by identifying and locating him or her, and to bring that child's abuser to justice.
International Child Sexual Exploitation image database
Managed by INTERPOL, the International Child Sexual Exploitation image database (ICSE DB) is a powerful intelligence and investigative tool which allows specialized investigators to share data with colleagues across the world.
Available through INTERPOL's secure global police communications system (known as I-247), the ICSE DB uses sophisticated image comparison software to make connections between victims, abusers and places.
Backed by the G8 and funded by the European Commission, the ICSE DB was launched in March 2009 as the successor to the INTERPOL Child Abuse Image Database (ICAID) which had been in use since 2001.
The ICSE DB enables certified users in member countries to access the database directly and in real time, thereby providing immediate responses to queries related to child sexual exploitation investigations.
In September 2012 a new version of the database was released providing investigators with the latest technology and extensively expanding the database's features.
The development of the new version was made possible through the financial support of the European Commission. This funding also enabled INTERPOL to carry out training sessions in several member countries and to connect them to the database. Police forces in close to 40 countries are currently connected to the ICSE database and cooperating in the identification of child sexual exploitation victims and their abusers.
By December 2014, the ICSE DB included data on more than 5,600 identified victims from more than 40 countries, as well as data related to numerous unidentified victims, whose cases are yet to be investigated.
INTERPOL has recently launched a project for the development of the next generation database, once again, under the financial support of the European Commission. The new database, to be launched in 2015, will include video analysis tools as well as cutting-edge technology aimed at increasing the identification of victims depicted in child sexual exploitation images and videos.
The constant changes in offending patterns and in the nature of the material produced and distributed by the offenders, calls for new and innovative law enforcement investigative tools. This new project aims to provide police forces with such a tool to enhance their response in this crime area.
Three police forces are partners in this development project: the Dutch National Police, the Belgian Federal Police, and the Icelandic Reykjavik Metropolitan Police. The fourth partner in the project is Videntifier Technologies, a research and development company specializing in video analysis and database technologies."

Difference of opinions
Just a few comments on your editorial published in the Nov. 17 edition of The Times Argus. While some want to write off the Republican Party, it should be noted that President Obama received 50.4 percent of the popular vote according to one source and candidate Romney received 48 percent. This is hardly a mandate in the usual understanding of the term. The Electoral College was another matter.
While the people elected Obama, they also returned most of the U.S. House members so we will remain a divided country. If I love this country and truly believe that more freedom and smaller government means people can flourish and better themselves, why would I ever give up on that goal, and I doubt that most House members will not give up.
You claim that people through their political leaders have said they want Roe v. Wade to continue to be the law, but a poll by Gallup reports that 51 percent of people call themselves pro-life and 42 percent pro-abortion. This would be a national poll and not a Vermont-only poll, where no doubt your statement would be correct. The opinion of most people who call themselves pro-life have this opinion rooted in faith, and they will not change.
What we should do is eliminate the language of separation and marginalization and talk. Perhaps this newspaper could be an example.
