Six great reasons to visit the Ice Rink
There's something about the ice rink. Whenever I go there, and it's not very often at all, I feel genuinely happy in a very child-like way. It reminds me of my childhood and when my mom used to take my sister and me there. And I firmly believe that everyone should make a point of going at some point or another. -

Wainwright looks to continue Cards' success
Rockies aim to even series at Busch Stadium behind Chacin
The fantastic Cardinals pitching staff is facing one of its toughest tests of the early season this weekend against a powerful Rockies lineup. On Saturday, St. Louis' ace will try to keep its trend of excellence intact.
A day after rookie sensation Shelby Miller shut down the Rockies in the series opener, Adam Wainwright will take the ball at Busch Stadium.
St. Louis has, by far, the best starting rotation ERA (2.20) in baseball. Miller's shutout on Friday only strengthened those numbers.
"If you look at our offense, we knew these guys were going to hit," Wainwright said of his club. "We're going to keep pitching. What a deadly team if you keep pitching and start knocking the ball around like we know we can, a team that can win in a lot of different ways."
At 19-16, the Rockies have the offense to put up a fight and are right in the thick of things in the National League West. Colorado's 169 runs were good for fifth in baseball, and its 45 home runs on the year was tied for third. The team's .446 slugging percentage was second.
Both pitching staffs excel in keeping the ball on the ground, and the Cardinals lead the NL with opponents having grounded into 36 double plays. Rockies pitchers have induced 29 double plays this year.
Colorado will send Jhoulys Chacin to the hill on Saturday to make his first career start at Busch Stadium. Chacin has made two career starts against the Cardinals, combining for nine innings.
After missing two starts while on the 15-day disabled list with a back strain, the right-hander threw a season-high seven innings on Sunday against the Rays.
"I felt really good about my pitches I was throwing after the first," Chacin said. "I feel good throwing my changeup and slider for a strike. Maybe I could get better command with my fastball, especially the beginning of the game. Things happen, but, anyway, I'm real happy to be back with my team and happy to throw seven innings and help the bullpen also."
Rockies: Some serious relief
Despite a heavy workload, the Colorado bullpen has stacked up against baseball's best. Rockies relievers have a group ERA of 2.62 after combining for five hits, no walks and six strikeouts in seven innings over their last two games.
Cardinals: Holliday hits vs. former team
• Matt Holliday, who was drafted by the Rockies in 1998, made his Major League debut and played five seasons with the club, is a career .372 hitter when facing his former team, with eight homers and 23 RBIs in 25 games.
Last year, he hit five home runs and drove in 16 runs in seven games against Colorado. He hit .481 in that series.
• Jon Jay is riding a seven-game hitting streak, during which he's batting 11-for-23 (.478).
Worth noting
• Chacin is 5-10 with a 4.60 ERA in his career against the NL Central.
• Cardinals reliever Edward Mujica has converted all nine of his save opportunities since picking up his first save of the year on April 18.

Tigers, Royals begin Central showdown
Division's top two finish first half with four-game set
The final series of the first half for the Royals and Tigers could go a long way toward determining their trajectories for the second half.
The two teams will meet for four games beginning on Thursday night, when Detroit lefty Drew Smyly opposes Jeremy Guthrie at Kauffman Stadium.
Kansas City has appeared to be the Tigers' biggest threat to a fourth consecutive American League Central title for much of the season's opening three-plus months. The Royals actually briefly overtook Detroit the last time these teams met up, a four-game set in Detroit in mid-June.
But since then, the Tigers have rebuilt their division lead to 4 1/2 games.
Both teams notched wins on Wednesday. Detroit earned a 4-1 win over the Dodgers, while the Royals used a three-run ninth-inning home run by Salvador Perez to erase a two-run deficit for a 5-4 win over the Rays.
"It's going to be a big series -- top two teams in the division," Smyly said. "Hopefully, we can end on a strong note as a team, and go in there and take care of business."
Smyly added that, after a first half that included a number of personal and team ups and downs, he's hoping to find more consistency as he heads into the All-Star break.
This pitching matchup is a repeat from the June series. In that game, a 2-1 Royals win, both pitchers were effective. Smyly went seven innings and allowed only two runs. But Guthrie was even better -- 6 2/3 innings of four-hit, one-run ball.
Guthrie is coming off his shortest start of the season, in which he lasted just four-plus innings and allowed six runs off 11 hits in a loss to Cleveland.
"They just hit everything," Guthrie said. "I kept the ball down for the most part. A lot of singles -- they just kept hitting it where we weren't, and they just kept piling up."
A sweep by either team would provide a huge momentum boost entering the break. Should Detroit take all four, it would almost certainly have the largest division lead in baseball at the unofficial halfway point. If Kansas City managed a sweep, it would pull within a half game of the Tigers before the start of the second half.
Last year, the Royals went into the break after losing five straight (two at New York, three at Cleveland) but they came out of it with new vigor and got into the AL Wild Card race.
"It left a bad taste in our mouth, but I think the best thing for us was to take those four days off and everyone got away," left fielder Alex Gordon said. "We came back and forgot about it and got off to a hot start."
A big unanswered question going into the series is whether or not Gordon will play. Scratched from the lineup on Wednesday night, he'll have his sprained right wrist examined on Thursday in Kansas City. He did enter Wednesday's win in the ninth as a defensive replacement for Raul Ibanez.
Also uncertain to play is third baseman Mike Moustakas (flu), although he wouldn't be in line to play against the left-hander Smyly.
Royals: Vargas out of series finale
One thing that's certain about the Detroit series is that left-hander Jason Vargas won't make his scheduled start on Sunday. He was to be matched up against Justin Verlander.
But following Tuesday's start at Tropicana Field, Vargas was taken to a local hospital where he underwent a successful appendectomy on Wednesday night.
"Vargy's surgery went great, no complications," manager Ned Yost said. "They did it with a scope, so he got three little scars. Everything went well there."
That likely puts lefty Bruce Chen in line to come out of the bullpen to take Vargas' turn. The Royals will have to call up a pitcher to fill Vargas' roster spot before Thursday night's game.
Tigers: Club beating the best
Detroit has risen to the challenge when facing good teams this season. Against clubs that are currently above .500, the Tigers had a 22-13 mark after beating the Dodgers on Wednesday.
Manager Brad Ausmus said that when you're playing a team can be equally as important, if not more important, than who you're playing.
"When you play a better team or you face a better pitcher, you probably have a little bit more adrenaline, maybe slightly more concentration," he added. "I guess it's possible that against a lower-tier team, there's a little bit of a letdown but there shouldn't be."
Against the Royals, the second-place team in the AL Central, the Tigers shouldn't need any added motivation.
"This is the big leagues," Max Scherzer said. "You have to bring it for everybody. If you get that notion where we're only going to gear up for the big teams, you're going to get chewed up in this league. Every player in here knows you have to bring it every day. We respect every opponent we play."
Worth noting
• The Tigers hold a 6-3 lead in the regular-season series with the Royals.
• Kansas City finished its nine-game road trip at 5-4.

It's the small moments I remember instead of the big ones, the quiet tender gesture rather than grandiose theatrics designed to make you swoon. Big and blown out- for me- simply fizzles and dissipates. There are gaps in my memory that reveal this proclivity to live off to the side, observing the small and overlooked, wondering what all the mainstream fuss is about. So much of what parades by as important strikes me as a lot of loud and self conscious whistling in the dark.

Choose your favorite, best tasting extra virgin olive oil for this recipe. It really makes a difference. You can use your favorite clean tasting vinegar for the acid, or use fresh lemon juice. And if mustard is not a problem for you, add a half teaspoon or so of prepared mustard, to taste.Optional: a dab of your favorite mustard, to taste
This recipe is a flexible template. Start with the lesser amounts and add a little more if you need to adjust thickness or taste.

Think this class will be the best in a long while, regardless of how it fills out (personally, I think last year's class was the 1st true 'Rhoads' class & this is looking like it is shaping up very similarly). X-factor here is Lanning - where does he end up position-wise? Thinking should Webster be a LB - if Lanning went there and Knott 2.0 already there, we could have more depth than 1st thought. However, with Meeks joining the fold it kind of opens up opportunities for Lanning. Hell, probably end up @ QB after all the discussion/speculation.

What's the limit of EE's that a team can have? I'm pretty sure there is one and I was thinking it was 3-4.
Originally Posted by 19210 What's the limit of EE's that a team can have? I'm pretty sure there is one and I was thinking it was 3-4. You can have however many you want. You can only put them in last years class if you have room in that class, however. Everyone can early enroll but only a few could be back dated. I think that would be five this year. Georgia, for instance could have 18! early enrollees. I am sure nothing fishy is going on there. That's huge, especially if you can throw a RS on top of it.
At the risk of sounding stupid what does EE stand for?

To much whiz and not enough bang

The radiant heat does help the pain in the short term but so does a hot water bottle, heating pad and my Dr. Ho. Just another expensive gadget to add to my collection. I returned it.

Your body naturally fights back when germs get inside. Sometimes an abscess forms when your body is trying to do this kind of germ fighting. But then the abscess (say: ab-sess) becomes part of the problem because it's an area of infected tissue that needs attention.
Abscesses can form on the skin, under the skin, in a tooth, or inside the body. Some people feel sick when they have an abscess. They might get a fever that makes them feel too hot or too cold.
Unlike abscesses inside the body, you can see an abscess on your skin. A skin abscess may look like a red, swollen bump — a large pimple that might be tender if you touch it. An abscess can happen after an injury, like a scrape.
Tell a grownup if you think you have a skin abscess. Make sure you don't touch or squeeze the abscess because that could make it worse.
With a grownup's help, you might want to put a warm washcloth on the area. Sometimes, that can help the abscess open up and drain. What's in there? A gooey fluid called pus that contains germ-fighting cells.
Use warm — not hot — water to warm up the washcloth or compress. Keep the compress on the area for several minutes. Do this a few times a day.
Since abscesses contain germs, you want to wash your hands before or after touching one — or the pus that comes out of it.
If the skin abscess opens on its own and drains, and the infection seems to clear up in a couple of days, your skin should heal on its own. If it doesn't, it's time for your mom or dad to call your doctor's office. If you go to the doctor, he or she will probably prescribe a type of medicine called antibiotics. They help your body kill the germs that are causing the abscess.
Sometimes the doctor will want to drain the abscess to let all the pus and germs out. This will allow the abscess to heal. The doctor might put gauze into the wound to soak up the drainage and help the abscess heal. Gauze is a bit like the white pad on a bandage that rests against a cut or scrape.
Make sure to follow your doctor's instructions about how to take care of the abscess when you go home. And be sure to tell an adult if you don't feel better or the abscess gets worse. Ask your parents for your own washcloth and towels so you don't spread germs to other people.
You can help prevent skin infections by being extra careful when you get a cut or scrape. Keep it clean and dry, and cover it with a bandage, if necessary. That helps keep germs out so the cut can heal.
And regular hand washing (before you eat or prepare food and after using the bathroom) is another germ-fighting step to take all the time, whether you have a cut or not.

When Google Reader dropped support for the built-in sharing features and integrated with Google+, the settings page added a long list of JSON files you could save to your computer to export your followers, the items you've shared or starred, your notes and more. Until then, you could only export your subscriptions.
Now all these files can be downloaded from Google Takeout, a service that lets you export data from Google+, Google Drive, Google Contacts, Picasa Web, YouTube and more. Reader is probably the only Google service that sends users to Google Takeout to export data.
Unfortunately, you need to download 8 files even if you only want to export the subscriptions OPML file. Google has to create a ZIP archive first, so you'll have to wait a lot more. Instead of downloading a small XML file, you need to download a large archive (34MB for my account). That's a general issue with Google Takeout, which only lets you download all your YouTube videos, all your Picasa Web photos, all your Google Drive files.
Another service recently added to Takeout is Google Latitude. You can download a JSON file with your location history data.
Let's hope that developers will create cool apps that parse these JSON files and make them more useful. Maybe Google should also offer human-readable formats like HTML.

Adam Dunn started at first base today against the Cardinals.
JUPITER, Fla. — Hello from Roger Dean Stadium, spring home of both the St. Louis Cardinals and Florida Marlins. The Nationals, fresh off yesterday's hubbub in Viera, made the trip down I-95 this morning to face the Cardinals, and I would imagine there will be slightly less interest in this game than there was yesterday for the GSSSTD.
Not that there aren't significant matters taking place today. For one thing, Garrett Mock takes the mound for his second start of the spring, hoping to build off his solid debut last week against the Astros. J.D. Martin, technically also in the running for a rotation spot, is slated to follow Mock out of the bullpen. And Drew Storen will look to keep his fabulous spring (two perfect innings, 19 total pitches) going with another inning of relief on the schedule.
So check back throughout the day for updates, and any other news that crops up will magically appear in new posts…

Not that I've ever been a fan of either the Cardinals or Pujols, but the recent Fantasy Baseball issue of ESPN magazine had a great piece about his philanthropic work, of which I am now officially a fan. There's also an interesting piece about the origins of Rotisserie baseball (not that I'm into that stuff either).There's an excerpt of the Pujols article here, but you have to be an Insider or buy the issue to read the whole thing.http://tinyurl.com/yzgb6rkLet's go, Nats!p.s. Forgot about Greene and Penny being with the Cards. Kinda looks like an NL West game what with them and Holliday in there. And check out that third baseman. hmmm…

"Mock … hoping to build off his solid debut last week. J.D. Martin, technically also in the running for a rotation spot. And Drew Storen will look to keep his fabulous spring (two perfect innings, 19 total pitches)." All of these guys have pitched quite well. I'm surprised you don't give JD some credit, since he has done as good or better than Mock and Storen. "technically in the running"? Come on now.
- Mark Zuckerman - Mar 10, 2010 at 4:43 PM
StressFree: I meant that as … Even though Martin has only pitched out of the bullpen so far this spring, technically he's in the running for a rotation spot.

Now that week one is out of the way, let's wipe the slate clean and start all over again.At least let's see if we can do better that 0-7 (actually 8 if you count the split sqaud game).I still do not take any stock in won/lost records during early March but, come on, nobody else is getting hammered consitently like us.Go Nats!

Mark…I believe that is Tyler Greene starting at SS for the Cardinals not Khalil Greene.
- HabsProf - Mar 10, 2010 at 6:17 PM
Desmond at short! Yeah!
- Kim - Mar 10, 2010 at 6:35 PM
Atta boy! Pudge. That should fire up the team a little bit.
- Anonymous - Mar 10, 2010 at 7:38 PM
Maybe this is skewed by the other teams scoring so much, but it doesn't seem like the Nats have been doing much in terms of hitting so far. Would you agree with that Mark or are you seeing something we can't see from thousands of miles away?
- Barney - Mar 10, 2010 at 7:53 PM
I remember when the Redskins' preseason featured opponents who walked through the lines like they weren't there and people making excuses saying that it was "just preseason". But it was a harbinger. Now the Nats can't hit the throw-away pitching that gets tossed when the teams move north. The W-L may not matter, but HOW the games are played does…worrisome…
- Scooter - Mar 10, 2010 at 8:03 PM
Did Pudge earn every single dollar of his contract, just in today's game?
- Mark Zuckerman - Mar 10, 2010 at 8:06 PM
Regarding Rizzo's comment, I took it to mean: "I'm not paying attention to team results, but I am paying attention to individual performances."
- Nervous Nats Fan - Mar 10, 2010 at 8:37 PM
Rats. I was really looking forward to "seeing" Storen pitch again today.
- Scooter - Mar 10, 2010 at 8:58 PM
In case it wasn't clear, my question about Pudge referred to throwing out Lopez twice, and the answer is yes.
- NatsGirl - Mar 10, 2010 at 8:58 PM
It's like a new children's book: See Felipe. See Felipe not hustle. Hustle, Felipe, hustle. Felipe is lazy. Lazy, lazy Felipe. See Felipe get unconditionally release. Fail, Felipe, fail. Sorry, couldn't resist the reference
- Doc - Mar 10, 2010 at 9:09 PM
Rizzo isn't concerned about individual performances. Gee, talk about whistling in the dark!!
- BaseballinDC - Mar 10, 2010 at 9:11 PM
(a) Pudge is awesome. I've been a huge fan since he went to my hometown team in Detroit and helped build a pennant winner out of nothing.(b) I agree with Riggleman that wins and runs aren't what you look at in Spring. In fact, I'd argue that the ONLY score that matters in spring training is how many of the 25 man roster you were planning to start with that gets injured. So far, I'd rather be the Nats than the Twins based on what's happened in Spring Training.
- Philip - Mar 10, 2010 at 9:16 PM
If Rizzo isn't concerned with an 0-8 record, terrible starting and relief pitching, poor defense and weak hitting, he's sticking his head in the sand. This happens every spring; ths Nats lose in the Grapefruit League then they keep right on losing during the regular season.
- Doc - Mar 10, 2010 at 10:57 PM
Fair analysis, Mark. After one week, the newbees (Capps & Walker) are treading water. Except for Desmond and Morse (and thery're supposed to be subs)nobody's hitting. Stasburg is doing great but he's not going north with the team. What's Rizzo waiting for, the baseball fairy???
- BaseballinDC - Mar 11, 2010 at 4:47 PM
"This happens every spring; ths Nats lose in the Grapefruit League then they keep right on losing during the regular season."Last year Washington finished two games ahead of the Phillies in the Grapefruit League.

Downsizing Blog
The School Computer Mania
The Washington Post reports that President Obama is cheerleading for more spending on high-speed Internet, tablet computers, and Wi-Fi in the nation's K-12 schools. There are budget and federalism reasons why the president of the United States should not be sticking his nose into local schooling activities, but let's put those concerns aside here.
New CBO Budget Report
The CBO released its new budget outlook today. The chart below shows total federal spending since 2000. Spending was way up under Bush and the first two years of Obama, and roughly flat since then.
Basic Fiscal Facts
We're not going to come up with a good answer if we don't understand basic fiscal facts.
Minimum Wage Laws Kill Jobs
President Obama set the chattering classes abuzz after his unilateral announcement to raise the minimum wage for newly hired Federal contract workers. During his State of the Union address, he sang the praises for his action, saying that "It's good for the economy; it's good for America." Yet this conclusion doesn't pass the economic smell test; just look at the data from Europe.
New SOTU Education Promises Just Like the Old SOTU Education Promises
What should President Obama have said about education policy in this year's State of the Union address? In a more perfect world, he would have announced his plan to eliminate the U.S. Department of Education in order to restore control of education policy to the state and local governments where it constitutionally belongs.
Farm Bill Spending Up 49 Percent
Under cover of SOTU media coverage, Congress is set to sneak through the first big farm bill since 2008. The Congressional Budget Office released its estimate of the bill's cost: $956 billion over 2014-2023. It would thus mean almost $1 trillion more borrowed from U.S. and foreign creditors, adding more weight to the anchor pulling down the living standards of our children and grandchildren.
Another Cost Overrun on Government Infrastructure
From the Wall Street Journal, here's the latest evidence on quality and efficiency in government infrastructure spending
Tax Reform: The First Step Is Simple
New leadership is coming to the congressional tax-writing committees. Ron Wyden will be taking the helm of Senate Finance and Paul Ryan will be likely taking the helm of Ways and Means. This is good news, as both gentlemen are serious legislators and very interested in major tax reform.
New Farm Bill Much Larger Than Last One
Congress is gearing up to pass the first big farm bill since 2008. The logrolling between farm interests is nearing completion, the Republicans have given up on making substantial food stamp cuts, and the Treasury stands ready to borrow another $1 trillion. We are all set to go.
Transparency and Spending Control
Luke Rosiak at the Washington Examiner is not just a journalist who rolls his sleeves up to root out corruption. He's also a capable computer programmer. Rosiak has produced a new feature on the Examiner web site called "Appropriate Appropriations?" that is worth checking out.

This definitely is interesting news!
I look forward to a rendering-engine with less legacy-bloat of the old days having been mainly with Apple and Safari. There is no need to refer to how big of a step it was to remove the old Apple-style-span.
In this regard, getting rid of 4.8 million lines of more or less relevant code (I guess rather the latter, being architecture-specific) will have its merits.

Family Style Dining
Sit down under the hand-hewn timbers of the Restaurant Barn and enjoy Amish Acres nationally famous Threshers Dinner, a family style feast of Amish country favorites. In tribute to the generations of Amish threshers who band together each harvest season to cut and thresh, thus separating the grain from the chaff, each other's crops in friendship, mutual aid and neighborliness.
This feast is reminiscent of the hearty fare cooked up by the women in the wood fired stoves, bake ovens, and smoke houses of the host farm in time for the noontime break in the threshing day. Often served out of doors under the shade of orchard trees, the Threshers dinner was and remains the best of all worlds.
In the spirit of neighborliness and thanksgiving, and in the tradition of the Threshers Dinner, you'll share your simple vittles amid the hand hewn beams of John T. Vawter's bank barn which was originally raised in 1870 and reconstructed here in 1977. Your food is all on the table and there's more in the kitchen, so like a hungry thresher, don't be timid, ask for more.

Vivianana D.USAHairBlackColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairTime SaverI love this product. I just started using it . I couldn't believe how easy this was to cover my thinning areas. It used to take me a long time trying to style my hair so that my scalp wouldn't show through. I was using the powders for over a yr now and I hated the mess it made on me and my bath room. I am saving a lot of time also in not having to clean the whole bath room after I did my hair. The stiffness to my hair didn't bother me much because I was able to carefully brush it through after it dried. I have always had to use hair spray anyways to hold the hair in place after I styled it so the scalp wouldn't show. I might add that I always had baby fine hair,but now that I am a senior it got see through thin in the crown area. This product does the trick for me.posted Sep 2, 2011Link to this post

Product Details
Subaru WRX 2005, Solid Drilled and Slotted Rear Chrome Rotors (CBX1.1109.1138C) by Chrome Brakes®. Quantity: 1 Pair, Outside Diameter: 265mm, Lug Holes: 5, Weight: 22. This is a set of OEM-sized replacement rear rotors that feature both slots and drilled holes to provide the superior level of cooling needed for high performance street driving, trailer towing, 4x4 use, even drifting. High-graphite G3000 grade iron provides superior performance from reduced temperatures and quieter application. Patented colored chromium layer adds style while providing a higher level of resistance to corrosion and temperature buildup than zinc or paints. The chromium layer is designed to disappear in the area that the brake pads contact the rotor.
- Set of rear disc brake rotors that are sized to match OEM equipment while providing superior braking performance and better looks
- Produced from the highest quality G3000 grade of "grey" iron with graphite microstructure
- Rotors have high thermal conductivity and are extremely resistant to temperature buildup
- Lower operating temperatures reduce rotor warp, fluid boiling, and hot spotting
- Rotors are slotted and drilled for better venting of heat, water, brake dust, and gasses
- Rotors are machined to a fine, consistent weight balance to provide the smoothest brake applications
- Pyrolytic Chromium Carbide (PCC) color coating provides a higher level of resistance to corrosion and temperature buildup on non-contact areas than zinc or paints
- 1 year / 36,000 mile manufacturer warranty is effective until rotors reach minimum thickness due to normal wear
- Manufactured in the United States
- Slots and drilled holes provide dust and water dissipation
- Slots help to increase pad bite and improve air circulation
- Cross-drilled holes provide increased cooling
- Reduce stopping distances in wet weather
Drilled and Slotted Front Rotors are designed for the customer who wants colorful style and enhanced braking power for their performance vehicle. As beautiful as they may be to the eye, every material and design aspect of the Chrome Brakes® rotors is created to keep overall temperature of brake components down, and overall stopping performance up - even in hard use street conditions. Pad contact surfaces are slotted and drilled for best venting of heat, water, brake dust, and gasses. Centers are ventilated for air pass-through. Plus, the iron used to form the rotors is cast with a high graphite content that takes longer to heat up - minimizing the chance of rotor warp over time. Brake fluid doesn't boil and create pedal fade, so grip remains even and strong. Your vehicle will glide to a civilized stop because Chrome Brakes® rotors are machined to a fine, consistent weight balance to provide the smoothest brake applications.
Chrome Brakes® rotors will stay looking good for a long time thanks to a pyrolytic chromium carbide protection layer. Not only does this PCC application give the rotors their color, this patented coating bonds to the metal to provide a level of corrosion resistance that paint and zinc cannot match. Plus, it actually aids in the resistance to heat buildup that gives you superior braking and longer rotor life. Chrome Brakes® rotors are available in a range of colors to meet your needs, and we invite you to contact our knowledgeable specialists seven days a week for help with any questions.
Located in Greenville, South Carolina, Chromebrakes® began with the goal of bringing the benefits of superior brake components at a reasonable cost to performance enthusiasts everywhere. Company engineers believed then, as they do today, that better brakes make driving more enjoyable and safer for any vehicle. As a result, they developed a philosophy that superior brake components cannot be superior without advanced materials that match the exact tolerances of each and every individual vehicle they are created for. Relentless development and testing led to brake pads, rotors, and other related components that deliver uncompromising fit and operation, and Chrome Brakes' customer base has expanded due to fierce loyalty. So when you want superior brake pads and rotors for high performance driving that exceed OEM specification without the excessive cost, Chrome Brakes® has the products you need - backed by the best warranty in the business.

Too bad, they should open soure more decade(s) old games.
Phoronix: EA Talks About Gaming At UDS: It's Boring
An Electronic Arts representative just finished talking at the Ubuntu Developer Summit in Oakland...
Too bad, they should open soure more decade(s) old games.
Fully agree.
If the sources are still available - why not open up the Dungeon Keeper (1+2) engine, for instance?
I bet the engines would get ported to Linux in no time AND they would even sell some of these old games.
Michael: Would it be possible for you to ask this guy what is really holding them up from doing this?
I saw the stream and the EA representative actually said that he would like to see more "legacy" code being
open sourced by his company. Honestly, if they would open up the DK engines for a start (not the assets, ofc),
this would surely give them a tremendous positive feedback AND press coverage. No doubt about this!
Last edited by entropy; 05-09-2012 at 06:06 PM.
Could anyone tell me which 14 games those are? This just sounds like a hand-waving argument regarding their support. It couldn't be Mass Effect or any of their Medal of Honor games, because those didn't come to WINE; WINE came to them. And that was after an ass-ton of work.
And MoH still ran like shit the last time I tried it.
I guess "Challenge Everything" applies to truth, logic, and respectability.
Indeed, they make games for both Consoles and PCs.They say they're a platform agnostic company.
They also like both kinds of music.... Country and Western.
You guys sure aren't being welcoming. More like uncivilized baboons shouting profanities...
Still glad EA are at least paying some attention to Ubuntu. But as we're seeing from many of the responses, many people, even Windows gamers, don't trust EA. They're done a lot of previous damage in that sense unfortunately.
tell me more about that "parts of sims 1" source code.

This pot rack is definitely worth every penny. It is sturdier than I expected it to be since it was so cheap. I have a relatively heavy set of pots and the rack holds them just fine, as do the hooks that were included. We have vaulted ceilings, so I was worried that it would be difficult getting the 4 separate chains to hang evenly. We were able to bring all 4 of them together on the one hook in the ceiling. It's hanging evenly and it looks great. I looked at several different stores and they were double the price on Overstock and many didn't look nearly as nice.
I ordered this pot rack because the price was good. I could have ordered others that were more costly and now I'm sorry I didn't. I've had other pot racks in the past...very heavy duty. This rack is very flimsy. The hooks are weak, as are the chains to hang it. I actually broke one of the hooks trying to install it and went out and got heavy duty hooks and stronger chains. I have very heavy pots...enamal covered cast iron. Unless you have light weight pots, don't even consider this rack. I would be afraid it would pull out of the ceiling with any weight on it at all, assuming the hooks actually held.
I got this pot rack to go above our kitchen island. Be sure to check your measurements. This isn't the biggest pot rack, but it has ample storage hooks. The pot shelf is small, maybe room enough for one or two large pots. Overall, it is a nice looking, sturdy rack.
I bought this pot rack several months ago. I love it, it is perfect for me - I have several pots and pans I use all the time and those are what I put on this rack. I also put the other essentials I use all the time (grater, wood pizza shovel, tongs, wire spiders, etc). I don't need the heavy duty rack or chains - the ones that came with the pot rack are fine and also easy to install.
I have always wanted a pot hanger for my kitchen but hadn't found one I liked in a long time. When I saw this one I fell in love with the picture right away & had to try it. It arrived in excellent condition & was the perfect shade of black. However, when I went to hang it, the hooks that were provided with it were made of very cheap material; one actually broke in my hand, before anything was ever put on the rack. So, I went to the local hardware store & picked up some stronger hooks for hanging it. The rest of the unit is absolutely perfect for me. Yes, I would recommend this product to friends & family, with the stipulation that they buy stronger hooks first. Otherwise, I love it & get compliments on it all the time.
I like everything about this pot rack, but wish we had more pot hooks.
I like that it has the screen on top that you could use as saucepan or cover storeage
It is so functional & easy to hang. I think it is beautiful. Even when we move I plan to take with me just for decorative purposes. It is truly worth every penny! High Dollar pot & pan rack for a great price. I was so happy & even more impressed once hung! Love it!
The product was a good product. I was not buying it for the use of a pot rack, I needed something to dry herbs. It was too heavy for that purpose. My bad.
Single spot welds holding together 4 pieces of scrap metal. I'm fairly confident this would not hold my pots/pans. I would not recommend this to anyone.

We invite you to cycle and change more lives in 2013. "I crossed the line and it felt amazing" - Leanne Peters, Special Olympics Great Britain Athlete. Paris2Nice was founded by Special Olympics in 2011 as a fundraiser to support the work of our national programmes in the Europe/Eurasia region. As the event this year will support multiple charities we are asking people to support us in 2013 and nominate Special Olympics as your chosen charity for Paris2Nice.
We need as many riders as possible this year ride and raise money for Special Olympics. Funds raised will support the Special Olympics programme chosen by the riders and the development work of Special Olympics across Europe.
Leanne is a member of the Special Olympics South West Club in Scotland. This is the moment she crossed the finish line in 2012 after many gruelling days in the saddle, accompanied all the way by her Special Olympics coach Tom Ahara." The group were fantastic and provided great support for Leanne and me. For Leanne, it really was one of the best experience of her life". (Tom Ahara)
Leanne Peters was the first Special Olympics athlete to take part in the Paris2Nice cycle challenge. Leanne has both an intellectual disability and cerebral palsy and it was a week of many firsts for Leanne!She had never spent more than a night away from her mother; never cycled more than 85kms and had never cycled in an event over consecutive days. Leanne is a member of the Special Olympics South West Club in Scotland and is a true champion! Over the 6 days of Paris2Nice, Leanne managed to ride 4 of the days and she covered 425km during the week. Tom Ahara, Leannes coach, picks up Leanne's story: "Given that Leanne's previous longest ride was on average 85km which she said took her 6 1/2 hours and 8 minutes to complete, for her to do 100km in just over 5 hours on the first day was a fantastic achievement. Then to go out the next day and do 135km was unbelievable. With each day of riding Leanne visually improved her performance and her own self belief that she could ride the whole day". Since returning home Leanne has gone from strength to strength both on and off the bike. She shared her experiences of the cycle with her fellow Special Olympians at her regions' AGM and is now gearing up for a 400km charity ride later this year!

The Best selling system of all time, with over 100 million units sold. Whenever you see a Xbox or nintendo fanboy bashing it, remind them it has sold FIVE TIMES MORE THAN THE XBOX OR GAMECUBE (they each have only sold about 20 million each, how sad for such "superior systems" as the fanboys keep calling them.

The best system out there. the only people who bitch about it are who were stupid enough to believe the hype that Bill Gates put out there. People can say that it breaks easily or it has poor graphics(it has neva broken for me, and the graphics aren't that different), but the fact of the matter is, Sony is still dominating the industry. All developers come to Sony first and the rejects go to Nintendo and then to Microsoft. Playstation2 is the succesor to PSONE, the only game system in its time, so whoever hates it only does coz they were too cheap to buy it and missed the fun.
PS2 and Xbox are about the same price retard!!

Signs of sexual abuse may not be apparent without an examination of the genital area. These signs include:
Vaginal bleeding in a child before the beginning of menstruation is abnormal, as are other vaginal or genital symptoms such as sores, warts, pain, or unusual discharge. Abnormal vaginal bleeding may be caused by physical or sexual abuse that injures the abdominal or vaginal area. Vaginal bleeding that is caused by abuse often is the result of minor physical injuries that will get better on their own or with home treatment.
You may feel uneasy if your child's doctor brings up the issue of abuse. But doctors have a professional duty and legal obligation to evaluate the possibility of abuse. It is important to consider this, especially if there were no witnesses to the injury that caused the child's vaginal bleeding.
If you think your child has been sexually abused, call your child's doctor or contact the National Child Abuse Hotline and Referral Service at 1-800-422-4453.

Diabetes mellitus refers to a group of diseases that affect how your body uses blood sugar (glucose). Glucose is vital to your health because it's an important source of energy for the cells that make up your muscles and tissues. It's also your brain's main source of fuel.
If you have diabetes, no matter what type, it means you have too much glucose in your blood, although the causes may differ. Too much glucose can lead to serious health problems.
Chronic diabetes conditions include type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Potentially reversible diabetes conditions include prediabetes — when your blood sugar levels are higher than normal, but not high enough to be classified as diabetes — and gestational diabetes, which occurs during pregnancy but may resolve after the baby is delivered.

Article | Harvard Business Review | December 2014 Rethink What You 'Know' about High-Achieving Women Robin Ely, Pamela Stone and Colleen Ammerman On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the admission of women to Harvard Business School's MBA program, the authors, who have spent more than 20 years studying professional women, set out to learn what HBS graduates had to say about work and family and how their experiences, attitudes, and decisions might shed light on prevailing controversies. What their comprehensive survey revealed suggests that the conventional wisdom about women's careers doesn't always square with reality. The survey showed, for instance, that 1) the highly educated, ambitious women and men of HBS don't differ much in terms of what they value and hope for in their lives and careers; 2) it simply isn't true that a large proportion of HBS alumnae have "opted out" to care for children; 3) going part-time or taking a career break to care for children doesn't explain the gender gap in senior management; and 4) the vast majority of women anticipated that their careers would rank equally with those of their partners. Many of them were disappointed. It is now time, the authors write, for companies to consider how they can institutionalize a level playing field for all employees, including caregivers of both genders. The misguided assumption that high-potential women are "riskier" hires than their male peers because they are apt to discard their careers after parenthood has become yet another bias for women to contend with. Citation:Ely, Robin, Pamela Stone, and Colleen Ammerman. "Rethink What You 'Know' about High-Achieving Women." R1412G. Harvard Business Review 92, no. 12 (December 2014): 101–109.

Case | HBS Case Collection | September 2012 (Revised September 2014) Doing Business in Turkey Felix Oberholzer-Gee, Robin J. Ely, Daniela Beyersdorfer, Emilie Billaud and Cigdem Celik In a rather flat international business environment characterized by shrinking markets and economic turmoil, Turkey promoted itself as one of the safe havens for investments. Led by the strong domestic demand of a young population, the country had tripled its GDP between 2002 and 2011, and had kept growing by 8.6% in 2011. Thanks to its central location "between the East and the West" and its access to 1.5 billion customers in its region, as well as to its "healthy" state of public finances and reduced government debt, Turkey had by 2012 become the 13th most attractive investment country in the world. As a result, many foreign companies considered setting up shop in Turkey, weighing whether the opportunities would outweigh the difficulties that doing business in emerging markets sometimes brought with it, such as an unpredictable regulatory and tax environment or the presence of a large informal sector. London-based beverages firm Diageo had been facing that same debate in February 2011 when it had to decide whether or not to buy Turkey's leading spirits producer and distributor Mey Icki. The deal would establish Diageo as a leading industry player, but it also bore risks. The case describes Turkey's economy, history, political context, and its business culture, and discusses some of the key opportunities and challenges for foreign players in the Turkish market.

Article | Harvard Business Review | September 2013 Women Rising: The Unseen Barriers Herminia Ibarra, Robin Ely and Deborah Kolb Even when CEOs make gender diversity a priority—by setting aspirational goals for the proportion of women in leadership roles, insisting on diverse slates of candidates for senior positions, and developing mentoring and training programs—they are often frustrated by a lack of results. That's because they haven't addressed the fundamental identity shift involved in coming to see oneself, and to be seen by others, as a leader. Research shows, the authors write, that the subtle "second generation" gender bias still present in organizations and in society disrupts the learning cycle at the heart of becoming a leader. Women must establish credibility in a culture that is deeply conflicted about whether, when, and how they should exercise authority. Practices that equate leadership with behaviors considered more common in men suggest that women are simply not cut out to be leaders. Furthermore, the human tendency to gravitate to people who are like oneself leads powerful men to sponsor and advocate for other men when leadership opportunities arise. The authors suggest three actions to support and advance gender diversity: educate women and men about second-generation gender bias, create safe "identity workspaces" to support transitions to bigger roles, and anchor women's development efforts in their sense of leadership purpose rather than in how they are perceived.
