During Thursday's Cubs-Phillies game, a downpour erupted out of nowhere in the bottom of the seventh inning. As the grounds crew put the tarp on the field, a member of the crew slipped and fell over the mound, and was covered by the tarp. He eventually got out of there, with his pride being the only thing injured, though it did take about half a dozen of his fellow staffers to help him out. Talk about a bizarre day at work...

Home » Football NewsWeek 3 NFC NotesSeptember 18, 2012 INDIANA SPORTS PAGEAs the NFL enters Week 3, six teams find themselves undefeated at 2-0. Two of those clubs will meet at University of Phoenix Stadium on Sunday afternoon (FOX, 4:05 PM ET) when the Philadelphia Eagles visit the Arizona Cardinals. Both teams are coming off exciting Week 2 victories by a combined total of three points. The Eagles defeated Baltimore 24-23 and the Cardinals knocked off the Patriots in New England, 20-18. Combined, the two teams have won all four of their games this season by a total of eight points (Arizona +6 and Philadelphia +2). The Eagles, who scored a late touchdown to win 17-16 at Cleveland in Week 1, are the first team in NFL history to start 2-0 and win each of its first two games by one point. "When you boil down the first two wins for Philadelphia, their mental toughness prevailed," says NFL Network analyst MICHAEL LOMBARDI. "They haven't let bad play affect them and they go on to the next play. That's been critical. That's really been the testimonial to why they're 2-0 right now." Philadelphia is the first team since the 1983 Los Angeles Rams to win its first two games despite turning the ball over at least nine times. "They've had nine turnovers but they're still undefeated," says NBC analyst TONY DUNGY about the Eagles. "Wait until they learn how to take care of the ball." The Cardinals are looking for the franchise's first 3-0 start since 1974 when the team won its first seven games. Last week, Arizona handed the Patriots their first loss in a home opener at Gillette Stadium, which opened in 2002. "Going to New England and getting that win can definitely propel our season to the next level," says Arizona cornerback PATRICK PETERSON, who had an interception in the contest. "Some guys in the locker room described it as a statement game. But we'll have to wait and see what the rest of the season has for us."
"The Cardinals have Pro Bowl players on every level of their defense," says Lombardi. "This is a tough defense. There is nothing easy to get from them. They have great speed and they have great size." Over the past 11 games dating back to last season, the Cardinals are tied for the best record in the NFL at 9-2. "We have a lot of games left," says Arizona head coach KEN WHISENHUNT. "We still have a story to tell as far as who this team is going to be." Sunday's contest will also mark the first time these two teams have met in Arizona since the 2008 NFC Championship Game, which the Cardinals won to advance to Super Bowl XLIII. A trip to the Super Bowl isn't on the line in Week 3, but a victory would give one of these teams an impressive 3-0 start. "We've got a big challenge ahead of us this week against Arizona," says Eagles head coach ANDY REID. "They're coming off a big win at New England. They're playing good offense, defense and special teams so we have to make sure we prepare ourselves right this week."

New Delhi, Jan 4: Security has been increased at Delhi Police Special Cell office here after intelligence alerts that it may be attacked to free Indian Mujahideen co-founder Yasin Bhatkal lodged there, said a police official Saturday.
According to police, the Intelligence Bureau alerted the Delhi Police last week that terrorists were planning to strike to free Bhatkal, who is in the custody of the Special Cell for the past one month.
"The security was beefed up with the deployment of more men in and around the office premises in Lodhi Colony area of south Delhi," a police officer told IANS.
Bhatkal was arrested by the National Investigation Agency Aug 28, 2013. He is accused of being allegedly involved in numerous terror attacks across the country.

If you don't like Mormonism, why don't you leave?
People often ask Mormon novelist Mette Harrison why she sticks with the LDS Church even if she has some problems with it. "I believe in the principle of conversation and compromise," she says.

Defending the priesthood ban as a righteous doctrine just so we can protect our need for to worship an idol that's predictable and in keeping with our own expectations is a violation of the first commandment.
Today on Speculative Theology Day: Having Heavenly Mother and the Holy Ghost be one and the same isn't some left-wing feminist program to empower women. It's actually a brilliant conservative strategy. Here are five semi-serious reasons why.
It's unclear what the excommunication of Mormon Stories founder John Dehlin will accomplish for the LDS Church as an institution.
Paradoxically, Mormons improve our public image when we stop being so concerned with appearing perfect.
With regard to the BYU-Idaho dress code, it might be good for Mormons to remember that Jesus' only words about clothes in the entire New Testament were an admonition for us to stop worrying so much about them.
The "don't talk too much" injunction is not so much a random aside as a visible pattern. Elder Ballard has twice in one month told Mormon women to rein in their voices.
It's clear from the picture Elder Ballard paints of ward councils that while many words of value might be applied to women there – assistant, helper, supporter, or deputy, for example – "equal" is not among them.
The Church's "Meet the Mormons" film, which will hit theaters on October 10, appears to take the popular "I'm a Mormon" campaign to a logical extreme, using half a dozen ordinary/extraordinary Latter-day Saints around the world as the calling card for our religion.
What will it take for Americans in general (and perhaps Mormons in particular) to stop the insanity and admit that there need to be reasonable limits on the availability of guns? How many children have to die?

LG MS870 Android smartphone exposed, headed to MetroPCS and Cricket
0. phoneArena 21 Nov 2012, 02:34 posted on
The FCC is a place where we often find chunks of information about new smartphones long before they are officially announced. Such is the case with the LG MS870, which was given the commission's seal of approval not long ago. Want to know who is getting it? Well, none of the big boys, apparently, as the smartphone is headed to MetroPCS and Cricket Wireless...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. Birds (Posts: 1097; Member since: 21 Nov 2011)
The screen looks to be around 4.3-4.5 inches vs the Galaxy SIII which also leads me to believe that the screen is subHD...
2. MeoCao (unregistered)
LG has upped its game lately and got closer to be real rival to SS. I think these phones will compete with GS3 and have similar specs.
3. youngbatman_15 (Posts: 2; Member since: 06 Aug 2012)
i think its gonna be design and screen wise like the lg venice but hardware wise like the connect 4g
4. Gman9831 (Posts: 1; Member since: 21 Nov 2012)
It's just the LG Motion 4G with a bigger & better screen, the only thing that is wrong with the motion is the screen size & quality/resolution, the metro site is wrong the processor is actually clocked @1512mhz

Five Auburn students National Merit Finalists
Five Rockford Auburn High School seniors have been named National Merit Finalists, joining an elite group of the country's top students who will now compete for millions of dollars in college scholarships.
Matthew Eighmy, Samantha George, Abid Haseeb, Andrew Hudson and Lloyd Kevin Sy completed a rigorous application process and are among 15,000 students nationwide who qualify for more than $34 million that will be awarded as part of the 57th annual National Merit Scholarship Program.
"Being a National Merit Finalist means that these students have shown a dedication and aptitude toward their education; they've worked hard to maintain a high GPA, performed well on their ACT and SAT, and formed good relationships with their teachers," said Auburn Principal Ryan Reinecke. "We're very proud of them and enjoy being able to highlight such wonderful accomplishments by our students."
The field of potential finalists began with about 1.5 million juniors who took the 2010 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. Only 16,000 students, including six from Auburn, went on to become semifinalists. (That group represented less than 1 percent of U.S. high school seniors and included the highest-scoring students from each state.)
Now, the finalist category has been narrowed to only 15,000 — and just 8,300 of those students will receive Merit Scholarship awards. Judges select winners based on a number of factors, including academic records, recommendation letters, student essays, performance on college entrance exams, and extracurricular activities and leadership. Scholarship announcements will be made this spring.
From the Feb. 15-21, 2012, issue

Just weeks ago, RadarOnline.com found Tallulah Willis at the Coachella Music Festival. She was wearing low-riding cut-off jeans, a strapless bikini top, and smoking non-stop.
Friday night, the 17-year-old youngest daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis was cited for underage drinking in Hollywood, RadarOnline.com has confirmed.
Because of her age, cops weren't able to simply release Tallulah -- her mom, Demi, came to collect her.
This isn't the first Willis daughter to have a brush with the law.
In 1997, Rumer was one of four people in a hotel room in Aberdeen, Md. -- she was there shooting a low-budget horror film -- when cops came in and arrested one member of the group for marijuana possession. Rumer was questioned at the scene but was not arrested and was never charged in connection with the incident.
The middle Willis daughter, Scout, 19, is a student at Brown University.
Neither mom, dad nor stepdad, Ashton Kutcher, have made any comment about the incident.

In a land celebrated for its gastronomy, this could be one of the best restaurants in the entire pays. Indeed, the Relais Bernard Loiseau has built a reputation as one of France's finest gourmet restaurants.

Be sure to try one of Bernard Loiseau's legendary creations: frog's legs with garlic puree and parsley juice, Pikeperch grilled skin-side down with sautéed shallots and red wine sauce, and steamed fattened free-range Bresse chicken "Alexandre Dumaine" with truffled rice. Executive Chef Patrick Bertron follows in the footsteps of his life-long mentor with his new menu offerings. (He hails from Brittany, so there's lots of tasty shellfish on offer.)

Michelin Guide 2007: Restaurants in France
February 22, 2007
By: Mary Winston Nicklin
The winners have been announced. After much speculation, Michelin has come out with its latest crop of three-star restaurants in France, with a whopping five new restaurants added to the prestigious list. The total number of three-star restaurants is 26. To quote the New York Times:
The new three-star establishments include three in Paris — Le Meurice in the Hôtel Meurice, Le Pré Catelan in the Bois de Boulogne, and Astrance, a tiny, 25-seat Right Bank restaurant — along with Lameloise in Burgundy and Pic in Valence, south of Lyon. Lameloise and Pic each regained third stars that were taken away several years ago; Pic's chef, Anne-Sophie Pic, is now one of only a handful of women ever to be in charge of a three-star kitchen.
But perhaps the most interesting announcement of all: the startling demotion of many top-tier restaurants to two stars, including Taillevent in Paris (bestowed three stars since 1973) and Le Cinq in the Four Seasons George V.

Lets start with story'''''here it goes,,,,,,,,,,,
A jatni girl ,,,,,,,,,jatni means brave, beautiful ,gorgeous ,''''all together DHWANI types,,
Was rushing vid complete soul ,energy,,,,,,,,,,,and briskness'''..
She is dressed casually''like
But had a trolley bag vid her'''
She was running towards '''platform number 9 ,,,,,at 4:00am''''
She was nervous,,,too nervous ,,,,,,so she was talking to herself.,,,,,(as some people feel that - if they talk they will overcome their fear or nervousness)."yeh sab kuch uss chetan ki vajah se hua hai,,,,,,1 baje raat ko phone karke kehta hai 'tera kaam ho gaya,,,,,ticket book ho gayi',,,,,,subah char baje ki'AUR VOH BHI SIRF SEATER COACH'vaise acchi bat hai ki mujhe 10 mins main grand paking karni aati hai'..yeh bhi ek kala hai,,,,jo sirf kuch logo ke pass hoti hai,,,,,,,,,,'mera lapti thikh hota tho koi dhang ki train book karti ,,,,,,,,,jisme sote sote jati,,,,,,iss train ne tho meri nind hi uuda di,,,,,,,yeh agar urgent na hota tho aaraam se jati,,,,,,,,aur upar se auto wala,,,,,,4 km ke 600 rs maang raha tha ,,,,,,,,,auto bhi bail gadi ki tarah chala raha tha,,,,,,voh tho sukar hai auto maine drive kiya ''..varna tho train tho aaj paaka miss thi''''..''
''lekin train kaha ghoom gayi?????''in a serious thought ,,,,,,,, and ' worry,,,
''oh teri!!!!!!!!! Kahin maine train tho nahin miss kar di???????
BBJ(BAND BAJ JAYEGI)'''''''oh crap'' '''.''yaar maine aapni nind bhi waste kar di'' with a serious rependence and regret on face,,,,,,,,,,,,,,for the mistake she can't afford'..
NEXT MOMENT'''she heard a voice''TING TONG---PLATFORM NO. 9 SE JAANE WALI TRAIN ''RAJDHANI EXPRESS'' 1 GHANTE LATE HAI''''''..
She was like''oye hoye!!!!!!! Bach gaye yaar,,,,,,,,,train miss nahi hoi'''''.than she again thought,,,,,,,,,focused ,,,,concentrated,,,,,to wat she heard ---1 HR LATE''
''OH,,,, NOOO'''isese bahtar tho main thoda aur so lati''''who will wait for one hr???????''mmm'
''mera tho bad luck hi kharaab hai''
Saying all this she somehow manages to reach platform no. 9''..
The only sound she could hear was of the skidding trolley bag'..
And the only humans see could see on plat form was ''were,,,,,a sadhu sleeping on the floor ,,,,,,,,herself''..and soon she discovered another living being'''..a gentleman'.a young man ,,,dressed in a denim jeans'''and a armani jacket'..
She could not make out his face,,,,,,as he sat on bench facing d opposite side'''
She rested her trolley beside d bench,,,,another one which is just behind d previous bench mentioned ,,,,,,,,,the young man could feel d presence of her,,,though he didn't see her(not even her shadow)_,,,,,though deeply engrossed in d cellphone ,,,,,,,,and,,,,,,, music in his headphone,,,covering his ears completely'''in full volume(it's a trick to make himself wake at 4:00am) ''..
Soon to make himself comfortable,,,,,,,,he placed his arm on the upper edge of d bench''.
Dis movement of his was noticed by dhwani'''she saw his arms were covered with a black jacket'''.good jacket.
Seeing dis she realized it's a bit cool''..
So she took a red shall for her bag''still standing behind'''unnoticed by the dashing boy'
the shawl was plane ,,,,,,,,,,but had abit sophisticated embroidery of mirror pieces , pearls , and string..only on breadth border''
She curled the shawl around her self while sitting on the bench behind d young man,,,,, still unnoticed''
She didn't realize dat one end of the shawl fell on the wrist of the young man whose arm was lying on upper edge of d bench''..
The man felt disturbed,,,,, and saw behind,,,,,,,,,,there was a girl'
But couldn't see her face as she was busy in adjusting her shawl..on d other side''
He looked back to his cellphone and simply moved his hand for approx 5inches,,,,,,to simply get rid of the soft shawl''..
Soon even see was busy wid her cellphone,,,,,,,,,,and d time passed''.
It was about 4:55 am ''..
Shopkeepers of platform shops were opening them'''
Dhwani got up'''stood up'to the platform edge''.to check if she could see any sign of train arrival''.the singal'
Suddenly she felt a light pull from her shawl''she followed and saw''a 10 metre long red string,,,,,,,which ended on d wrist button of elegant jacket of d young man''
Dhwani stepped forward ,,,,in d same direction of string,,,,,,and started simply collecting it in her plam,,,,,,,,,,,wid a loose grip''.so as to avoid further damage'''.soon she reached the button ,,,,,,,,,,,,,was just about to unfasten it'''.dat it went out of sight''''.
Yes d young man removed his hand form d bench,,,,,,,,,,,,and was walking towards d opening shops'''..the string again elongated,,,,,,
She said'' excuse me'''.wid a weird face,,''oh hello'' she repeated her expression''.
But dis went still unconcerned from d gentleman side ,,,,,,,,,he still had his headphone'''
She hastily followed him,,,,,,,,again collecting the string,,,,,,,,,and even trying to match his speed,,,,his steps'
Soon she reached and ,,,,,,,,,,she was about to speak but,,,,,,she saw his headphone,,,,,and ignored,,,,,,
She bent down,,,,,while walking,,,,,,,again she was about to uncurl it but'''he raised his arm to adjust his head phone'''still walking'.
Soon she gripped d string again ,,,and tightly''.the young man felt a light pull on his wrist,,,,,,,,,,and turned to discover''..
And he saw d most beautiful sight,,d most refreshing'.d most adorable,,,sight in front of him'''.DHWANI..
Dhwani was shocked with his sudden turn,,,,,,,,,she was in her full speed to catch him earlier''and '.now she just collided with daqsh ,,,,,,,,they were close,,,,,,,,,their bodies were close''they were in each others perfect vicinity,,,,,,,,,,,,their face was merely 5 to 6inch apart,,,,,,,,,she was stunned ,,,,,,,,,,her body was cold'''.
Soon she noticed his black jet eyes,,,,which looked first strange ,,,,,,,and soon amiable ,,and adorable'.He saw her nervous, worried, cute , deep, big black eyes,,,,,,,,he looked as her eyes's iris was d most fascinating , shining , amazing, most bestest and unique black diamond of d world''..
They saw their world in each others eyes''..(love in first sight)'..
There are some sounds which fastens up ur heartbeats,,,,,,,,,,,,,
For daqsh ,,,,,,,,,he heard it just now,,,,,,,,,,as follows''..
''aa,,,,,,a,,,,,,,,,,,,aap,,,,,,,,,,,ma,,,,,,,main'''''she could breath out only dis much in his influence over her body,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
She gathered again all her energy again,,,,,,and continued ''vvv'.vooo'''voh'' pointing towards the wrist button in which string was still stuck'''..
He departed his eyes,,,,,,,,,wid gr8 courage'''as he didn't wanna do it'''to look d button ,,,,while dis she gazed his face,,,,,,and he saw her again''as soon as he did it,,,,,,,,she made herself busy wid d sting and d button''..
His wrist was still in proximity of his ears and cheeks,,,and ''.she was in vicinity of his wrist''..she tried to unfasten it ,,,,,,and wanted to do it eagerly,,,,,,,as she could feel his gaze on her'..she provided 2 to 3 jerks,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and daqsh ''.realised d world around him''..
The word he spoke first was ''love'',,,,,,,,offcourse under her influence''.to dis ,,,,she again raised her eyes ,,,,wide open''.
And he continued,,,,,,,,''I love my jacket a lot''dis was a serious statement''''.soon she cut d string through her teeth'.still looking at him''..and he gazing her face,,,,,noticing single single moment of it in cutting of d string''.
After dis ,,,,,,,,,,,,,d eye lock was no more romantic'''.she made her gaze,,,,,,,,to stare''step backed ,,,,,,,,,,,and answered-
''even I love my shawl a lot'''''..showing him d damaged part of shawl'''''and see wat have u done!!!!!!!!!''

What does everyone use these days for a modern, multi-function imaging solution? (something that can handle UEFI/newer technologies would be a plus, if it's possible) (self.sysadmin)
submitted 2 years ago by gadorp
Ghost(16) and Ghost32+WinPE with VNC and network boot have been in my toolkit for what seems like eons, but I'm finding that newer systems, particularly Windows 8/UEFI, are beginning to stump my imaging solutions.
For the first time in about 6 years I've had to stop and think about imaging solutions, where they are and what UEFI/Secure boot, etc. will do to force them to change.
I guess what I'm looking for is some piece or pieces of information on what everyone's using right now, what are the current challenges you're seeing and what's on the horizon.

What are you talking about? We've already been invaded.
Actually, a foreign nation is not likely to try and invade.
We still allow gun ownership in the USA...until the libs sell us out.
Bah! I'm American, and I am not pledging allegiance to a flag. I pledge allegiance to my family. I pledge allegiance to to my friends. But, fuck the flag and fuck the country. Americans were sold out a long time ago. If the place was invaded I would fight, but only because the people I care about wouldn't be willing to leave. Otherwise, I would let the place burn down and giggle my ass off on the way to somewhere else.
^^^you could always move to Somalia...its a nice place..
I thought you meant by those other aliens..
or maybe a friendly alien..
I don't need saving. I can fight for myself. and I will if it comes down to it, but in the meantime, while we are fucking with other countries and fucking with other cultures, and selling out the futures of out own people while pretending to be white knights of the world, I'll stand back in amusement.
If you were to ask, 'who are the True Americans' ??? I think you'd find that to be a 'True American' you need to be 'pure anglo' white's only, no Negros, or Mexicans or Jews. or Muslims or Native Indians or Asians or Serbs , no mixed races only Irish, English & Germans.. maybe I'm wrong but don't think so..
25 years ago I would have said that any country invading America would be heading into a meat grinder. Admiral Yamamoto, the architect of the Pearl Harbor attack stated as much to the Japanese big wigs not to contemplate a land invasion of America. "There will be a rifleman behind every blade of grass."
Now, with the wussification of men, over liberalization of women, I am not so sure enough would fight to do anything.
Oh yeah. The wetbacks would turn tail and head south as fast as possible, grabbing as much of your shit as they could carry on the way out.
Havnt had a neg in years ...Fuk it Go for it :flipoff:
if your legal it doesnt matter if your black, yellow or whatever, your american. you can tell yourself I'm african american but your american and if you went to somolia they wouldnt say "stop, dont kill that black man he's one of us" they would say kill the american. and if japan invaded they wouldnt say only kill the whites because black and hispanics arent americans. Altho if the japanese landed in LA they may think the fucked up and landed in mexico with all the mexican flags and stores in spanish. just sayn
can we swap azza for an invading army?
Subbed for invasion related humour
maybe we should try a social experiment and deploy the guard out on the streets, sand bag and fortify city buildings and declare a state of emergency for eminent ground invasion, lets see how many people have the balls to stand up and protect their country and families, and how many people run. All cowards who run will get stamped with a vagina image on their passport, and tattoo coward on their face next to their gang tattoos or teardrop tattoos
Come on man. How can you expect people who have never been in a physical confrontation in their entire life to suddenly turn into Rambo at the the drop of a hat? Boys aren't allowed to fight anymore. We are like dogs, and the tendency and ability to stand up for one's self is being bred out of us. Personally, I think people currently 30 years old and older or the last generation of fighters left.
If a legitimate threat shows up, I'll gladly pick up an m4, but I refuse to be some corrupt politicians play toy.
Wont matter what the immigrants do..... If we get invaded the world ends cause bombs will go off BIG ONES.


text: The Mogol! wiki last edited by jeffreyv2512 on 10/21/13 11:24AM View full history Mogol!Tyrannus sends his ultimate warrior Mogol to befriend The Hulk and recruit him for his army. However Hulk remembers Tyrannus tried to hurt him in the past and attacks Mogul. A titanic battle begins that destroys numerous cars and properties, with The Hulk having yet another building dropped on him! The two behemoths end up underground and find their strength to be equal. Mogol senses Hulk's loneliness reflects his own and extends a hand of friendship. A cautious Hulk finally accepts and the two are teleported to Tyrannus' subterranean city where they help build his army for an attack on Mole Man.During the invasion of Mole Man's city, Mogol is shot by a heat ray and is revealed to be a robot. Mogol himself was unaware of this as Tyrannus had programmed him to feel emotions and told him he was a living creature. However an enraged Hulk doesn't believe his friend and feels betrayed and tricked. In his anger, the Jade Giant tears Mogol in half and crushes his CPU. Mogol refuses to retaliate and to his last seconds protests his innocence, pleading with Hulk he really was his friend. After destroying the robot, Hulk leaps back to Tyrannus' city and in revenge leaves it in complete ruins. With his vengeance complete, the confused monster walks away wondering if he really did kill his only friend.

The Bad:
He didn't make a lot of friends on the last
; in fact, he resorted to hanging out with a frog on one lonely night.
The Ugly:
He's ultra-competitive and has targeted The Miz as his rival…after all, the guys' team chose to keep The Miz over Derrick on
. Can Derrick prove he's just as strong--or stronger--than the mighty Miz?

The tree of memories, they hang there waiting for her when she need to pick one, they seem so sad....
i so look forward to your posts. another excellent, thought-provoking image. =)
The loss of individuality and dissolution of identity.. as though there's nothing more to species homosapien than to generate and degenerate.. Ultimately what remains is a mother who stands there and a load of human fruits on the trees, no better than mangoes in a mango tree.. the feeling of conscience and human energy moving inside a dark cave, going darker and darker.. more and more centralized, confined, and centered on merely survival in a tough, tough world, which is getting tougher every day.. (hey, I am not sure.. This is only my interpretation.)
This is aesthetically your best image, but perhaps after evacuate, of what i have seen.. and perhaps the most draining..
what a superb piece of work!
i really dont know what to add expect wow ! - your portfolio is quite unique
OMG.... there is one hell of a lot of thought n work gone into this art!
Most will just pass it by... too blind or scared to see...
While the prophets look to the heavens and ask.... why!

Right, so by this count, John Sexton is a high brow fool for stocking up on 4x5 TMY / TMX and Ilford paper to both prepare for possible product loss and certain price increases.....

Apparently, they don't actually get out photographing much. By much I mean around 20 rolls a day, each day, 365 days a year, like Magnum. Nah. All just "stock the freezer, the end of film is nigh!". Quite apart from the fact that the reality of deep freeze embrittles over the longer term, time, stains and sticks and can in all probability be rendered useless in that state. Here's some advice: buy $200 worth of film now, and use it in the next month or two. Is film still there afterward? OK, go buy some more and repeat.

Going beyond energy intensity to understand the energy metabolism of nations: The case of Argentina
The link between energy consumption and economic growth has been widely studied in the economic literature. Understanding this relationship is important from both an environmental and a socio-economic point of view, as energy consumption is crucial to economic activity and human environmental impact. This relevance is even higher for developing countries, since energy consumption per unit of output varies through the phases of development, increasing from an agricultural stage to an industrial one and then decreasing for certain service based economies. In the Argentinean case, the relevance of energy consumption to economic development seems to be particularly important. While energy intensity seems to exhibit a U-Shaped curve from 1990 to 2003 decreasing slightly after that year, total energy consumption increases along the period of analysis. Why does this happen? How can we relate this result with the sustainability debate? All these questions are very important due to Argentinean hydrocarbons dependence and due to the recent reduction in oil and natural gas reserves, which can lead to a lack of security of supply. In this paper we study Argentinean energy consumption pattern for the period 1990-2007, to discuss current and future energy and economic sustainability. To this purpose, we developed a conventional analysis, studying energy intensity, and a non conventional analysis, using the Multi-Scale Integrated Analysis of Societal and Ecosystem Metabolism (MuSIASEM) accounting methodology. Both methodologies show that the development process followed by Argentina has not been good enough to assure sustainability in the long term. Instead of improving energy use, energy intensity has increased. The current composition of its energy mix, and the recent economic crisis in Argentina, as well as its development path, are some of the possible explanations.

Happy Thursday, Sparkland!
I know it isn't much, but I've managed 2 workouts this week. They have been short. They have been half hearted. But I've gotten up and done them. Today was a 10 minute Billy Banks workout. I love those workouts, and they are good workouts. I need to get back into the longer workouts, but right now if I can just get out of bed, get a workout done, do something around the house, and make a smoothie - before 6:30am - I'm happy! I lay back down and sleep some again before going to work. Most of the time I'm awake enough that I don't need to lay back down, but I WANT to. So I do. End of story.
I am going to hit the store after work today. I need some new headphones and I need to get some play money for my rewards jar. I mean, who carries cash around these days?? (for those who missed it, I am going to reward myself with $1 per workout and $1 per day in calorie range) I'll use the play money to track, and I will make my reward purchases accordingly. If my purchase does not come to the full amount that I earned, I will keep the "change" in the jar to carry over. Those decorative stones will be my "punishment" markers. One color will be for a missed workout and I'll have to do 10 squats at the end of the month for each missed workout. Another color will be for days not in calorie range. I will do 10 pushups at then end of the month for each day missed. So, here are my first 4 rewards:
I think hula-hooping will be a fun and different type of workout to keep me going on days that I really don't want to.
I think the versitility of these bands will help me to do some more intense ST at home - my bands are just not cutting it.
Because I want it!
I haven't decided yet between 10 or 15lb kettlebell, but I'd like to try a workout with one since I've never done anything with them before!
I think these rewards will help me to keep a workout on the books even if I don't want to go to the gym. I'm having such a hard time getting to the gym that I just need to have some new workouts at home that I am excited about. I will have to make due with what I've got until the end of June, but at least I've got something to look forward to!

Hey lady! Give yourself some credit. 2 is better than none :) GREAT JOB!! be proud of even seemingly small successes, that momentum will build. Just takes a 'spark' :)

Love your challenge! The rewards are great too...I like your comment, "Because I want it", LOL! I think it's a great idea to get small workouts in. 10 minutes is easy to get up for and not so overwhelming. An hour isn't quite as easy and makes it easier to say no to. And, you can always add more short workouts throughout the day to equate to a long workout, just in pieces. It adds up. I think you're onto something there!

Love how you are coming with new ideas to keep yourself motivated. This is awesome. I might have to steal this idea. Glad to see you are getting back into a workout routine. Anything is better than nothing, especially when its early morning like that. Keep up the great work... and thanks for sharing your idea!
Report Inappropriate Comment
Wouldn't it be nice if someone else paid us to workout? Lol! THAT would be even more motivating
But in a way we will be saving immeasurable amounts in the future simply by staying active.
Definitely get the kettlebell!! Look up Tim Ferris four hour body. You will find lots of good info on K swings and easy ways to get maximum results from minimal efforts.

I think these are some great ideas! Kettlebells give a great workout even though I dread doing them!

What an awesome reward strategy! I might have to do that with calorie range, what an incentive! Glad you got a little of your spark back. I imagine after you are able purchase one product you were really get in to things.

Magnificent Wine Company House Wine Chardonnay
Magnificent Wine Company
- Washington State
- United States
- Columbia Valley
There are few white wine grape varietals as famous or widely appreciated as the Chardonnay, and with good reason. This highly flexible and adaptable grape quickly became a favorite of wineries due to its fairly neutral character. This neutrality allows the wineries to really show off what they are capable of doing, by allowing features of their terroir or aging process to come forward in the bottle. As well as this, most high quality wineries which produce Chardonnay wines take great efforts to induce what is known as malolactic fermentation, which is the conversion of tart malic acids in the grapes to creamy, buttery lactic acids associated with fine Chardonnay. Whilst the popularity of Chardonnay wines has fluctuated quite a considerable amount over the past few decades, it seems the grape varietal allows enough experimentation and versatility for it always to make a successful comeback.
Washington state currently holds host to over six hundred wineries, each producing wines using the many classic grape varietals which flourish in the arid, dry region to the east of the Cascade mountains. Since the Washington wine industry began in the beginning of the 19th century, great efforts have been made to irrigate the semi-desert which makes up much of the state, and the results have been enormously successful in regards to creating an environment in which a wide range of grapevines can flourish. There are certain fine wineries in the wetter western region of Washington, although these make up less than one percent of the region's overall wine production levels. Recent decades have seen red wines becoming increasingly popular in the United States, and many of those produced in Washington are considered to be amongst the country's finest produce.
Whilst there are several strains of native grape varietals in the United States, it was the introduction of the European species which prompted the country to begin producing wines on a large scale. Over the past few centuries, experimentation and cross-breeding has produced great successes in regards to the quality and suitability of the fruit grown in states such as California, Oregon, Washington and New York, and the past few decades have seen New World wines from the United States reach much higher standards. Arguably the finest United States wines have always come out of California, where the climate and terrroir is most suitable for fine wine production. The masterful blending of classic grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, amongst others including Syrah and Chardonnay, have had world beating results in recent years, prompting many to suggest that there has never been a better time for buying and drinking United States wines.
