Ariana Jollee rules July 21, 2009
Reviewer: xataar
Once again Ariana Jollee shows that she is the one girl who can take it all. Even though I like Ashley Long, who is in the second scene with Audrey Hollander, another of my favorites. They both take on the same number of guys (the same guys infact) that Ariana takes on all by herself. Since all the three sluts can actually take on all the guys, it would have been nicer, if Anabolic, would have had three separate Gangbang girl movies, with each one of these mega cock sluts from beginning to the end.

Professor Thomas McGarity of The University of Texas School of Law will discuss and sign his book, Bending Science: How Special Interests Corrupt Public Health Research, at the Texas Book Festival in Austin on Sunday, November 2, at 3 p.m. at the Texas State Capitol. He is one of about 200 of the nation's most accomplished authors with recently published works that will be featured at the two-day, free festival at the Texas State Capitol this weekend.
McGarity's talk, which is open to the public, will be held from 3 to 3:45 p.m. at the Texas State Capitol Building in the Capitol Extension Room E2.012. Following the discussion, participants can buy the book and have it signed by McGarity in a book signing tent fifteen minutes after the end of the session.
Introducing McGarity at the session will be Robert Pitman, a U.S. magistrate judge for the Western District of Texas, sitting in the Austin division, and a graduate of the University of Texas School of Law.
For directions to and a schedule for the Texas Book Festival go to: http://www.texasbookfestival.org/. The festival was established in 1995 to honor Texas authors, promote the joys of reading and benefit the state's public libraries.
Thomas McGarity
Bending Science, which was co-authored with UT Law professor Wendy Wagner and published last May, describes how advocates for special interests employ a range of devious tactics to manipulate or suppress research on potential human health hazards. Harvard University Press published the book in May 2008.
In the book, McGarity and Wagner describe how scientists can find their research blocked, or find themselves threatened with financial ruin. Corporations, plaintiff attorneys, think tanks, even government agencies have been caught suppressing or distorting research on the safety of chemical products.
Bending Science reveals that ideological and economic attacks on research are part of an extensive pattern of abuse and corruption, and the authors make a compelling case for reforms to safeguard both the integrity of science and the public health.
To read an excerpt from the book on-line or order a book from Harvard University Press go to http://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog/MCGBEN.html.
Thomas O. McGarity holds the Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long Endowed Chair in Administrative Law at The University of Texas School of Law. McGarity is a leading scholar in the fields of both administrative law and environmental law. He also teaches torts.
McGarity has written three influential books: Workers at Risk (Praeger, 1993) (co-author), The Law of Environmental Protection (West, 2nd ed., 1991) (co-author), and Reinventing Rationality: The Role of Regulatory Analysis in the Federal Bureaucracy (Cambridge, 1991). His recent articles include "On the Prospect of Daubertizing Judicial Review of Risk Assessment" (Law & Contemporary Problems 2003). He currently serves on the Board of the Center for Progressive Reform.

Grey Water & Rain Water in ColoradoJanuary 26, 2015
On Sunday January 25, KDNK News and KGNU in Boulder hosted a statewide call-in show about the Colorado Water Plan. Guests included James Eklund, director of the Colorado Water Conservation Board, who oversees the plan. A caller asked him how the plan deals with residential conservation methods, such as rain barrels and grey water, which is waste water from kitchen and bathroom sinks, showers, and washing machines. Eklund responds in this excerpt from the show.
Tune in this week for a special re-broadcast of the entire show on Tuesday and Thursday, January 27 and 29, at 4:30 pm.
Connecting the Drops: White Water ParksSeptember 5, 2014
Conservationists and white water recreationists are emerging as allies in the state-wide discussion on water, as both groups seek to keep water in Colorado's rivers. KGNU's Maeve Conran brings us the story in the next installment of Connecting the Drops, our yearlong water series.
Connecting the Drops: Colorado's Water PlanJuly 21, 2014
It's been over a year since Gov. Hickenlooper issued an executive order calling for the creation of a state water plan. It won't be a legal document, but the plan is expected to make recommendations that will guide future water planning and funding decisions. The process is well underway with a deadline to deliver a draft plan by this December. As part of our radio series "Connecting the Drops" in partnership with Rocky Mountain Community Radio, Sam Fuqua brings us this update on the Colorado Water Plan.
Post-flood planning in Boulder CountyJuly 9, 2014
The historic September 2013 flood reshaped waterways across Colorado's northern Front Range, making major changes to both the manmade and natural environments. Over the past ten months, homeowners, planners and policy makers have grappled with difficult decisions over where and how to rebuild…and when to let Mother Nature take her new course. As part of Connecting The Drops—our series on Colorado water issues—Sam Fuqua reports on the rebuilding process in one of the hardest hit counties.
Water education a critical part of determining Colorado's water futureJune 23, 2014
When it comes to water, Colorado's kids can expect to face a challenging future. A growing population and increasing demand may mean difficult trade-offs. That's one reason educators and policymakers say it's critical to teach young people about water management. As part of "Connecting the Drops"—our series on Colorado water—Sam Fuqua visited two water education programs to see how they're handling this complicated topic.
Colorado leading the way on small hydropower trendMarch 20, 2014
Using the force of moving water to generate electricity is an old idea. For much of the 20th century, hydroelectric technology led to the construction of giant dams across the American West and around the world. But big hydro projects have a big impact on surrounding ecosystems, and Colorado is at the center of a growing move toward hydropower on a smaller scale. As part of our year-long Connecting the Drops series, Rocky Mountain Community Radio's Andrea Chalfin reports.
Connecting the Drops: Water and PowerFebruary 5, 2014
It takes water to produce electricity. But how much water varies a lot depending on the fuel source and the power generating technology. As part of "Connecting the Drops"—our year-long series on Colorado water—Sam Fuqua reports on the critical role of water in keeping the electric grid humming along here in the arid West.
Shoshone--hydropwer on the Colorado RiverDecember 4, 2013
A complex series of agreements govern the distribution of water throughout the state. Along the Colorado River, farms, cities & towns, and the recreation industry are all big players, but everyone takes a backseat to a tiny hydroelectric plant that's over one hundred years old. As part of the year-long series Connecting the Drops, Rocky Mountain Community Radio's Maeve Conran brings us this report on the Shoshone Generating Station and the critical role it plays on the Upper Colorado.
Colorado's water warsOctober 22, 2013
Water has always been a source of conflict in the arid West. But in recent years the tensions between cities and rural agricultural areas has escalated, as both sides compete for this limited resource. KGNU's Maeve Conran has this story as part of our year-long series on water issues, Connecting the Drops.
Join KDNK, KGNU and KRCC for the Connecting the Drops simulcast!September 9, 2013
On Sunday September 15th from 5-6pm, KDNK is participating in a state-wide call in show called Connecting the Drops.
In collaboration with KGNU in Boulder and KRCC in Colorado Springs we host an hour-long discussion with listener calls focusing on the plight of the Colorado River. Taylor Hawes, Nature Conservancy's Colorado River program director who recently testified before a Senate committee on the Colorado River will be the guest in studio at KGNU. Jim Pokrandt with the Colorado River District will be the guest at KDNK and a representative from Colorado Springs Utilities will join us by phone.
Join us for this state-wide simulcast on Sunday, September 15 from 5-6pm on KDNK.

Hi all
Saw that the KAL is the central park hoodie and totally love the design. This will be my first knit along and my first big project :o) I've got DK yarn which I know is slightly finer than the recommended yarn, but my tension square seems to be ok, and I love the colour. Since I've never done anything big before, I was wondering if there are any major problems I may encounter using DK yarn instead of aran, and if there was any way around it.
Looking forward to getting started :o)
Jade from London :o)
Hi Jade,
As long as you're getting gauge and you're happy with the look of the fabric, you should be good.
For future posts on the KAL, please post replies only to this post: http://www.knittingdaily.com/forums/t/3485.aspx.
See you there!

OOC: Here we go, guys!
(BIC) Class was over, so Bless "Lessie" Arrow was walking through the hall, looking for her friends as she went to lunch. As she went, she got bored. So, she ignored the school rule of "no Morphing on campus unless for a class" & went into the forest near school to Morph for kicks, hoping if some1 saw her, it would be a friend.

First. a mile from the road in Edward Weston's time and place may be a lot more wild than what you'll experience in the UK. I suspect, like most backpacking locations in the US, you're looking more at "remote" than at "wild".
IMO, for a multi day backpacking trip, carrying anything more than a 35mm or folder (maybe a smallish TLR) means the trip is primarily around photography. But that's just my opinion.

I've got loads of exciting white wines at the moment, but I've got a problem with reds. I've suffered in the past from deciding that I like one and buying a few of them, and as a result I've got a few bottles of wines that I've already had too many of. I'm thinking Maycas del Limari Reserve Shiraz and, most glaringly of all, a Berberana Etiqueta Negra Rioja Reserva, which I must have bought a year and a half ago and still can't get through. I must learn that there are lots and lots of exciting wine and there's no need to get more than a couple of bottles of any of them unless it's something genuinely exceptional. But then, there are moments when having a stock of your favourite wines comes in handy. For example, I was emailed last week by the man who owns the winery that produced the EOS Petite Sirah that I blogged about a few months ago, thanking me for a positive write-up. So I opened another bottle and, thankfully, it's still excellent. A meaty, mighty beast that's really good to crack open every now and then. Sometimes familiarity is what you're looking for after all.

The first ever double decker train service between Mumbai and Goa got off to an inauspicious start after the driver of the train halted it at Roha station for over an hour on Friday morning. The driver was slotted to pilot the train till Ratnagiri. The train was stranded at Roha for over an hour, the drama having started at 8:40 am.
The driver cited employment rules stating that he had already put in ten hours of duty and should be relieved. As the passengers in the train fumed, an embarrassed Central Railway operations team had to send an SOS to Konkan Railway authorities to send in a replacement driver, called A 'reliever' in railway parlance.
Roha, 144 kilometres from Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST) is the start of the Konkan Railway's 740 kilometer route.
Incensed Central Railway officials called the driver's act 'insubordination' and said action would be taken against him. "Our duty chart shows his stipulated 10 hours would have got over much after he reached Ratnagiri. This is harassment to the paying public", said a senior CR official.
Officials said that CR has been having problems with its drivers for some time now, with some of them claiming that they will pilot the trains till Roha and then Konkan Railway drivers should take over. This is contested by Konkan Railway authorities, who say that the Railway ministry schedules lay down that CR will provide drivers up till Ratnagiri.
As reported by dna, the first double decker run between Mumbai and Goa has been a commercial disaster with just 135 of the total 960 seats available on the train getting sold.

Operant conditioning protocols can change spinal reflexes gradually, which are the simplest behaviors. This article summarizes the evidence supporting two propositions: that these protocols provide excellent models for defining the substrates of learning and that they can induce and guide plasticity to help restore skills, such as locomotion, that have been impaired by spinal cord injury or other disorders.

Yet in More, her one-woman show, Smith inventories a host of ordeals that have never visited young Lisa. There have been no very special episodes of The Simpsons devoted to paralyzing anxiety, fear of failure, fear of success, sex with married men, marathon bulimia sessions, or a debilitating jealousy of Cynthia Nixon. Apparently, modest acclaim and a rumored salary of $100,000 per episode have proved insufficient for Smith. She wants to be thinner, prettier, richer, better loved, and most of all, in front of the camera.
Smith commences a dreary catalog of struggle and self-deprecation: distant family, showbiz defeats, failed relationships. And she describes her eating disorder in ickily obsessive, cheerful detail. But though she includes the most intimate aspects of her lifespectators can count themselves quite familiar with her esophagus by show's endshe never really reveals herself. Throughout, Smith (and director Judith Ivey) keep the audience at a distance. She's so rehearsed and procedural, she seems to be performing less herself than just another charactera tiresome one. In fact, as the piece progresses, Smith comes to appear less spunky, self-starter Lisa and more that neurotic, romantically blighted compulsive eater of Sunday-paper infamy: Cathy.

the Panamerican Road runs between the beach and the upper part of the property (where the bungalow is located) so there is noise at times when trucks run by with their heavy breaks on, but there are lots of places around the farm, especially by the beah, where to enjoy real Peace
Additionally to lodging, Individual Tai Chi classes could be arranged or you might be invited to attend individual and group sessions (awareness/ Qigong meditation), or Zhang Zhang (standing meditation), or participate to a Satsangs meeting (but be aware! things will be said here will not exactly be the ones you'd like to hear!..at least not the usual "spiritual stuff").
or you could come join us in Push Hands Practice.
You can choose a total retreat and never leave the grounds of the Temple for the duration of your retreat, for those that CAN endure this type of challenge/solitude test (we do your shopping once or twice a week) or you can have a less "restricted" stay and be allowed "to go out and about" at your own pleasure.
Rent goes lower as one stays longer also as a reward: it shows that you are sticking to your Discipline!

It was a great experience.
First of all the hosts were fantastic : communicated with me in a timely manner and responded to all my questions,worked with me to insure connections from San Jose.
The place itself is great,clean,well maintained with thoughtful additions: coffee, flowers, fresh fruit etc.more than I expected.
It is an outstanding setting,amid bush and bamboo, with a lovely front veranda and frankly one of the best hot showers anywhere.
It's private and makes a wonderful inspirational retreat and only a short bus ride to Uvita and Dominical for shopping, banks etc.
There is a private beach several hundred meters away.
Internet connection and an array of spectacular wildlife....! Not to be missed!

Donkey rides
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|This article does not cite any references or sources. (April 2011)
Donkey rides are a traditional feature of seaside resorts in England. Children are allowed to ride donkeys on a sandy beach for a fee in summer months while on holiday, normally led in groups at walking pace. Typically the donkeys used have their names on their harnesses so they could be identified by children and parents alike.
Donkey rides have been available since 1886 in Weston Super Mare and since 1895 in Bridlington.
The tradition started in Victorian times, but is now much less popular. It is probable that the donkeys offered to ride on were originally working draught animals in the cockle industries around the coast.

McRaven tells troops to pipe down
WASHINGTON Special operations chief Adm. Bill McRaven warned his troops, current and former, that he would take legal action against anyone found to have exposed sensitive information that could cause fellow forces harm.
"We will pursue every option available to hold members accountable, including criminal prosecution where appropriate," the four-star commander wrote, in an open, unclassified letter emailed to the active-duty special operations community Thursday, and obtained by The Associated Press.
The warning came a day after a retired Navy commando revealed he is publishing a first-hand account of the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. Pentagon officials say they have not been given a chance to review the book, but Pentagon spokesman George Little said Friday officials expect to receive a copy "very shortly."
Little said the Pentagon will decide whether to take any action against the author once officials review the book's contents to determine whether it includes classified information. He said the Department of Justice would have the lead role if any legal action were to be taken.
It also follows a media campaign by special operations veterans, decrying alleged leaks by President Barack Obama's administration of secret operations, and criticizing Obama's highlighting the raid as part of his reelection campaign.
McRaven also took former special operators to task for "using their `celebrity' status to advance their personal or professional agendas."
He acknowledged that former service members are "well within their rights to advocate for certain causes or write books about their adventures," but he cautioned them against claiming to speak for all special operations troops and against endangering troops by what they write.
News broke Wednesday that one of the SEALs McRaven commanded on the bin Laden raid would be releasing his book, "No Easy Day," on Sept. 11, with the author listed under the pseudonym of Mark Owen.
The author was identified Thursday by Fox News as Matt Bissonnette, who left the Navy last summer.
One current and one former U.S. military official confirmed the name, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss military personnel matters.
Penguin Group (USA)'s Dutton imprint, the publisher, asked news organizations Thursday to withhold his identity.
"Sharing the true story of his personal experience in `No Easy Day' is a courageous act in the face of obvious risks to his personal security," Dutton spokeswoman Christine Ball said in a statement. "That personal security is the sole reason the book is being published under a pseudonym."
Bissonnette also changed the names of the other SEALs in the account, the publisher says.
Al-Qaida sympathizers posted photos of Bissonnette on jihadist web forums and called for his killing in retaliation for bin Laden's death.
"First picture of one of the dogs who killed the martyr Sheik Osama bin Laden," reads one posting, with a photo that has circulated in Western media said to be Bissonette, crouching with an automatic weapon. "We ask almighty God to destroy him sooner or later," it reads.
The posting Friday was by a militant sympathizer who goes by the username "The Sniper of the Arabian Peninsula," who often posts on such websites but whose identity is not known.

North Valley Plastic Surgery Announces New Website For Spanish Speaking Patients
North Valley Plastic Surgery responds to Spanish speaking patient needs by introducing a Spanish version of their website.
Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) September 30, 2011
North Valley Plastic Surgery is pleased to announce the introduction of their new Spanish version website Cirugía Plástica Phoenix to meet the needs of their Spanish speaking patients. Ramon Robles M.D. from North Valley Plastic Surgery says that the number of requests for consultations and cosmetic procedures requested from Phoenix and Scottsdale residents with Spanish as their native language has increased dramatically over the last few years. In response to this trend, Dr. Robles offers one-on-one consultations with new patients in Spanish without the use of a translator. This gives patients more privacy when discussing their individual needs with the plastic surgeon.
Although the new site is an abbreviated version of North Valley Plastic Surgery's website, it gives a good overall view of the procedures that are offered for the face, breast, body and skin. The site's blog will offer eSpecials on a monthly basis and be used to announce new procedures that are being offered.
North Valley Plastic Surgery is a leading plastic and cosmetic surgery facility, offering the services of plastic and cosmetic surgeons, a dermatologist, and a fully staffed MedSpa and Outpatient Surgical Clinic. They have been on the front line of bringing new technologies and innovations in cosmetic surgery to Phoenix area residents. Earlier this year, they introduced NeoGraft hair transplants and Ulthera Non Surgical Facelifts using ultrasound technology. North Valley was also one of the first facilities to offer Stem Cell Fat Transfers for breast augmentation as well as introducing the 24 hour Rapid Recovery Breast Augmentation to the area.
The new Spanish website – http://cirugiaplasticaphoenix.com is very much in keeping with their reputation for listening to their patients and responding to their needs quickly.
Go to North Valley Plastic Surgery or Cirugía Plástica Phoenix for more information.

Scotia Square
Scotia Square is a commercial development in Downtown Halifax, in the Halifax Regional Municipality Nova Scotia managed by Halifax Developments Limited. It was built in the late sixties to mid seventies. It is connected to the Downtown Halifax Link and serves as a major Halifax Transit bus terminal in Halifax.[1].
Location and layout[edit]
Scotia Square consists of a mall, a hotel, and a number of office towers connected to each other and to other buildings by pedways and tunnels. The complex is adjacent to the Cogswell Interchange, and it fronts on Duke Street to the south, Barrington Street to the east, and Albemarle Street (formerly Market Street) to the west.[1]
- Barrington Place Shops (3 floors)[2][3]
- Barrington Tower (20 floors, 84 metres)[3][4]
- Brunswick Place (5 floors)[3][5]
- Cogswell Tower (20 floors - 14 office levels on top of 6 parkade levels - 79 metres) [3][6]
- Duke Tower (14 floors atop 2 storey podium, 71 metres)[3][7]
- Delta Hotel building (15 floors)[3][8]
- Scotia Square Mall (2 floors)[3]
Pedways and tunnels[edit]
- Pedway connecting Brunswick Street to the Scotia Square Parkade, and the west parkade stairwell. Passes over Albemarle Street (formerly Market Street).[3][9]
- Pedway connecting the northwest corner of Scotia Square Parkade (topmost level) to Brunswick Place (formerly called Trade Mart building), which is located beside Scotia Square Parkade, on the north side of Cogswell Street.[3][9]
- Tunnel connecting mall to World Trade and Convention Centre, as well as the Halifax Metro Centre. Passes under Duke Street.[3][9]
- Three-level pedway going from Barrington & Duke Towers to a stairwell, which leads to parking and the mall. The middle level of this pedway joins up to the Brunswick Street Pedway mentioned above.[3][9]
- Pedway going from Scotia Square Mall, over Barrington Street, and into Barrington Place Shops. From there one can go via pedway to Purdy's Wharf, Casino Nova Scotia, the CIBC Building, and the TD Tower.[3][9]
Future Development[edit]
A proposal has been put forward by Crombie REIT with DSRA Architects to expand the Scotia Square Complex along Barrington Street.[10] The proposed 3-story development would include street-level commercial, as well as office and retail above. The changes would bring the site into better agreement with HRM design guidelines mandating more pedestrian-oriented districts.[11]

Thanks John. I found Baja a little more expensive than the mainland also, but I still miss the food at El Cadil, and Danny's asadero in Mulege. One of the things I've realized this trip is that the higher priced rooms seem to be in the beach towns, but even there you can find some bargains if you check around. One of the things I try to do is negotiate lower rates for longer stays, so I can usually save money that way. This approach is harder to make work in the tourist towns, but isn't impossible. A lot of Mexico's tourist trade is slow this year with the economy in the state it's in. This year, I'm making stays in one place of up to a month, so it actually becomes quite affordable to have a really nice place for a fraction of what the day-rate would add up to.

Soulduck, not sure if I'm getting opposable thumbs or webbed feet at this point. I do love the ocean temperature here.
I use maps. I can see the advantage of a gps, esp when navigating in a city, (where street signs and route markers virtually disappear too often), but can also see a huge disadvantage if your gps breaks or is lost, or stolen. I recommend as most here do the Guia Roji maps. The other ones they sell in Borders Books are OK in a pinch, but I've seen more than one place that while not in the wrong position on the map, had the orientation of roads kinda f@#ked up.

Varibike lets you pedal with your legs – and your arms
The Varibike's setup allows riders to cruise along using leg power only, arm power only, or a combination of both
The Varibike weighs 15 kg (33 lb)
A rubber-sheathed chain drive connects the arm cranks to the main drivetrain
The newer FR3 model adds separate freewheels to each arm crank
Along with the arm cranks, the Varibike also has a set of quite narrow flat handlebars
The base FR2 model of the Varibike features a 7005/7020 aluminum frame, and components such as a Shimano XT rear derailleur (there's no front derailleur), a Ritchey Pro V2 seatpost, and Schwalbe BigApple 28 x 2.00 tires
Steering looks like it could be a little ... unusual, but is reportedly achieved simply by leaning one's body into the turns
On the F3 model, the arm cranks can be used in "Synchron Style," in which they stay side-by-side to produce a sort of rowing motion
According to the Varibike company, a study conducted by the University of New Mexico indicated that a rider's maximum power output could be increased by over 30 percent when using both their arms and legs, as opposed to only their legs
The Varibike in action
Article Summary
Earlier this year, we heard about a proposed arm- and leg-powered bicycle known as the 4StrikeBike. At the time, we knew that if it were to reach production, it would be facing some competition from the existing Raxibo Hand-Tret-Velo. Now, it turns out that another arm-and-legger has also recently hit the market – it's time to meet the Varibike.

Job Growth Was Disappointing, But Some See Reasons For Hope
Originally published on Tue October 22, 2013 3:49 pm
When it finally came out Tuesday, the September jobs report — delayed for 18 days by the government shutdown — showed a labor market moving forward. But the pace was slow enough to prompt many economists to view it as a letdown.
Job growth "is disappointing, given that employment is still down by about 1.8 million from its peak prior to the recession," Gus Faucher, senior economist with PNC Financial Services Group, said in his analysis.
The Labor Department said employers added 148,000 jobs last month — the 43rd straight month of growth. The unemployment rate slipped to 7.2 percent, down a 10th of a point from August. Still, the number of people with paychecks remained lower than before the Great Recession, with many potential workers not even in the game. They were sitting at home, rather than trying to find jobs.
The report showed labor-force participation was unchanged in September at 63.2 percent, but that rate's "long-term decent will continue" unless employers give sidelined workers more reason to resume job searches, Doug Handler, an economist with IHS Global Insight, wrote in his assessment.
Still, beneath the disappointing data, one could find some reasons for optimism in the new year. For one thing, economists are virtually unanimous in saying the relatively weak labor market makes it more likely the Federal Reserve will continue its efforts to stimulate growth.
Throughout the recession and weak recovery, the Fed has used all of its monetary tools to push down interest rates. One of those efforts involves a bond-buying program that has the effect of restraining long-term interest rates. In June, the Fed indicated that U.S. economic growth was getting strong enough that the central bank might begin to "taper" down its stimulus effort.
But given this month's economic disruptions caused by the federal government shutdown — combined with last month's sluggish job growth — the Fed probably will not act until 2014. "A December taper remains possible, but now is increasingly unlikely," Handler said.
Translation: Interest rates probably will still be low on home mortgages come spring.
Meanwhile, the September jobs report showed an increase in construction jobs, up about 20,000 workers. A separate report Tuesday from the Commerce Department showed that in August, private residential construction spending hit the highest level in five years.
So the real estate market may look pretty good for the spring buying season, with fresh inventory and cheap mortgages. A surge in homebuying would boost growth for lots of Americans, in construction, retail, landscaping and so on.
But that optimism assumes Congress will avoid another shutdown and debt ceiling crisis this winter. Congress has set a schedule for itself to complete a budget in January and resolve debt-ceiling issues by Feb. 7. If those federal fiscal matters are resolved in the winter, the economy could brighten with the blossoms. "Job growth should be stronger in 2014 as the drag from fiscal policy on economic growth lessens," PNC's Faucher said.

IKIM VIEWSBy WAN AZHAR WAN AHMADSenior Fellow and Director,Centre for shariah, Law and Political Science
During the reign of various Muslim rulers, non-Muslims, too, have sought justice from the Syariah courts.
THE Supreme Court's judgment in the case of Che Omar Che Soh v PP (1988 and which will be referred to from hence in this article as Che Omar) is considered a landmark case concerning the interpretation of the status of Islam as enshrined in Article 3 of the Constitution.
At the time, the Supreme Court was the highest court in the country's judicial system.
A number of academics, politicians and lawyers have argued that this case laid to rest the question surrounding the law of the land, that is secular law. Any attempt to change this law is unconstitutional and therefore void.
Article 3(1) proclaims that "Islam is the religion of the Federation; but other religions may be practised in peace and harmony in any part of the Federation".
Some people interpret this Article to mean that Islam encompasses all aspects of human life, while others narrowly construe it to refer only to certain aspects.
Counsel for Che Omar sought to prove the first interpretation, arguing that since Islam does not provide any qisas or hudud punishment for the trafficking in dangerous drugs and firearms offences, and that the Constitution is the supreme law of the land; therefore a mandatory death sentence for those offences is against Islam, unconstitutional and void.
The apex court then had to decide on the possible meaning relative to the term Islam in Article 3. If the meaning is confined only to acts related to rituals and ceremonies, then the argument does not hold weight.
But if Islam is an all-embracing reality and constitutes a comprehensive system of life beyond the ritualistic or ceremonial aspects to include jurisprudence and moral standards, then the argument raised by counsel had wide implications in the sense that every law has to be tested according to that yardstick.
To make it clear, any legal provision that runs counter to the second interpretation, if deemed correct, must be considered unconstitutional and void. To put it in legal language, any law passed after Merdeka Day that is inconsistent with the Constitution shall, to the extent of the inconsistency, be void.
In Che Omar, it was held that the term Islam in Article 3 meant such acts as relating to the ritual and ceremonial only.
The then Lord President Tun Salleh Abas, leading the five-member bench, observed that "if it had been otherwise, there would have been another provision in the Constitution which would have the effect that any law contrary to the injunction of Islam will be void.
"Far from making such [a] provision, Article 162, on the other hand, purposely preserves the continuity of secular law prior to the Constitu-tion."
Not rejecting the fact that Islam is "a complete way of life covering all fields of human activities, private or public, legal, political, economic, social, cultural, moral or judicial," Salleh Abas however explained that this was not the meaning intended by the framers of the Constitution.
The learned judge concluded that their real intention was this: Islamic law was to be understood in an isolated manner, confined just to the law of marriage, divorce and inheritance.
He put the responsibility of relegating the scope of Islam, i.e. Islamic law, on the British colonialists following their rule of the land.
I wish to disagree with the judgment.
There was no sufficient evidence given by the learned judge to show that was precisely the intention of the framers.
Assuming that these legal experts knew the history of the country centuries before the coming of the British, they would not have said that the application of Islamic law was limited to personal and family matters only.
In Ramah v Laton (1926), the Supreme Court, presided by two English judges, acknow-ledged that Islamic Law "is not foreign but local law, it is the law of the land". That statement would not have been made if the learned judges were ignorant of the history of this part of the world.
The late Prof Ahmad Ibrahim argued for decades that Islamic law is the fundamental law of the country. English historian R.J. Wilkinson stated that there can be no doubt that Muslim law would have become the law of the then Malaya had not British law stepped in.
Another point of contention in the judgment of Che Omar was the term "secular law" in the court's expression: "Article 162, on the other hand, purposely preserves the continuity of secular law prior to the Constitution".
If one goes through all seven subsections of Article 162, one will discover that the actual term used is "existing law", not "secular law". In fact, the term "secular" is not mentioned in the Constitution. It does not appear anywhere in the document.
The Article states, for example, that "the existing law shall ... continue in force on and after Merdeka Day." Now, what does "existing law" mean?
Islamic law was one of the existing laws practised before, during and after Independence. Historical documents indicate that Islamic law was substantively applied in this country's legal system long before British occupation, and it was applied not just for ritual and ceremonial purposes.
The Terengganu Inscription dating back to the 13th century and the Undang-undang Melaka (Malacca Laws) in the 15th century, for example, had provisions concerning punishment for adultery, liquor consumption and theft.
This reflects that Islamic law had gained firm legal footing for centuries. The arguments presented by Ahmad Ibrahim in Ramah v Laton and the statement made by Wilkinson simply reaffirm this historical fact.
The general public is under the impression that Islamic law is strictly meant for Muslims. This is not the case in all situations because non-Muslims could seek justice from Syariah courts during the reign of various Muslim rulers.
If this has happened in history, it can still take place today and in the future.
Our esteemed Constitution, various other Acts of Parliament and state enactments contribute to the confusion by putting forth some legal obstacles concerning the application of Islamic law towards non-Muslims.
In reality, under certain circumstances, non-Muslims can and must be allowed to stand either as witnesses or even parties to certain litigations.
In this way, I believe, the misunderstanding and prejudices concerning the Syariah courts may be controlled and gradually reduced, if not eliminated.

Simple and Yummy...I made four bone in thigh chicken pieces for two people. Husband said he could have eaten at least three or four pieces. Intially, I was going to grill, but the thunderstorm required me to use the oven. No problem. Gosh it was so good. I was true to recipe. I was nervous with the idea of ketchup and brown sugar. Try it and you will love it. I am already craving it.
This an easy, quick tasty bbq sauce. I did some chicken in this and it was great. I doubled the recipe and will use the sauce on hamburgers later this week. For a make your own sauce this is really good. No fuss no muss.
This was excellent, easy, no-fuss and well-suited for a weeknight meal. I used skinless drumsticks, thighs, breast (bone-in), starting the breasts a few minutes ahead. The amount of sauce is ample for this quantity of chicken. The barbecue sauce is a good balance of sweet and smoky, with great color and consistency.
One more thing- I replaced the liquid smoke with 2 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce. I also added 1 sliced Vidalia onion to the mixture.
This recipe is exceptionally simple and also tasty. The recipe makes your standard barbeque chicken.
Awesome recipe! So little ingredients as well as prepping and marinating time, yet very flavorful. This is definitely an addition to my recipe collection!
This was a really quick and fantastic recipe. I added some extra brown sugar (not much) and a few extra shakes of liquid smoke and it was the perfect mix of spicey and very sweet! It was a hit and will make it all the time!
I grilled boneless skinless breasts and thighs. Cooking time was about 20-25 minutes. Basted after 10 minutes. We thought it was quite yummy!
Very good and tasty, and quite easy to make. The combination of slightly peppery and sweet was a hit. I used only drumsticks and thighs, and removed the skin before baking. The chicken stayed moist, almost melt-in-your-mouth quality. I bet this would be fabulous on the grill.

Sept. 10 Alabama 27 ... at Penn State 11
CFN Analysis: Alabama remained calm and cool in the emotion of the start against Penn State, and once it settled down, and once the defense started to dial it up a bit, the game was over. The offense was hardly impressive, but it did enough to get the job done with Trent Richardson pounding away for a workmanlike 111 yards and two touchdowns on 26 carries, while AJ McCarron had an effective 19-of-31,163-yard, one score game. The D gave up a long early drive, and a long garbage time drive, and nothing in between, and while the pass rush was just okay, there wasn't anywhere for the Nittany Lion skill players to go. After last week's problems holding on to the ball, going without a turnover against a defense as good as Penn State's is impressive.
Penn State did what it could, and despite completing 11-of-29 passes for 144 yards with a pick, Rob Bolden wasn't bad; he just didn't have anywhere to go against the swarming Tide D. Matt McGloin was a disaster, completing 1-of-10 throws for no yards, and at this point, the battle should be over; it's time to develop Bolden. He needs the time and the reps, and he needs to be the starter without looking over his shoulder. No one is going to do much against Alabama this year, but unlike last season's game, Bolden at least looked like he belonged on the field. Defensively, Michael Mauti was fantastic with 13 tackles and thre broken up passes, but there wasn't any pass rush from the front four.
(AP) STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- AJ McCarron was poised and efficient in a rare trip to Big Ten country for No. 3 Alabama, throwing for 163 yards and a touchdown as the Crimson Tide beat No. 23 Penn State 27-11 on Saturday.
Alabama completed a sweep of the home-and-home series between the two storied programs with a methodical and smothering performance reminiscent of last year's 24-3 win in Tuscaloosa.
Both teams came into the second week of the season with unsettled quarterback issues. At Alabama (2-0), those appear to be settled.
Playing in front of the largest crowd ever to see an Alabama football game, McCarron was 19 for 31 with no turnovers and a 5-yard touchdown pass through traffic to Michael Williams in the first quarter.
McCarron started the Tide's first game against Kent State but had to share the job with Phillip Sims. This week he was on his own. He gave coach Nick Saban no reason to make a change until the game was out of reach.
For Penn State, Nittany Lions (1-1) fans might be wondering if either Robert Bolden or Matt McGloin are the answer. They combined to go 12 for 39 for 144 yards.
With Penn State's Joe Paterno coaching from a box way above the field at Beaver Stadium -- nursing pelvic and leg injuries from a collision with a player -- there was only one two-time national champion coach on the floor of the stadium.
Saban paced up and down the Crimson Tide's sideline with his headset on, stopping to watch the action with his hands on his hips or knees, before going back to stalking.
At 59 years old, Saban has 131 victories, 271 behind Paterno's major college record. Saban will never catch up to the 84-year-old JoePa on that list, but he's got a team capable of getting him a third national title this season.
Trent Richardson was workmanlike with 26 carries for 111 yards and two touchdowns, including a 13-yarder with 6:14 left in the fourth that made it 27-3 and cleared much of the 107,846 at Beaver Stadium -- save the ones in Crimson shirts.
Led by defensive backs Dre Kirkpatrick and Robert Lester, the Tide defense held Penn State to 251 yards.
At one point in the third quarter, Alabama nearly intercepted five straight Penn State passes. The first two thrown by Bolden were called picks on the field, but did not stand up to video review. Lester couldn't quite keep either from touching the ground. On the next series, McGloin relieved and Alabama defenders got a piece of all three of his throws.
Alabama finally did get an interception that stood on Penn State's next possession when free safety Mark Barron ranged to the sideline and leaped high to get Bolden's underthrown pass.
Alabama improved to 10-5 against Penn State and snapped the Nittany Lions' 23-game winning streak in nonconference home games.
Penn State used 16 plays, three timeouts and half the first quarter to take a 3-0 lead on the game's first possession, thanks to Evan Lewis' 43-yard field goal.
With the help of a faked punt and a kind spot, Alabama grabbed the lead late in the first quarter.
On fourth-and-less than a yard, Alabama snapped to upback Brad Smelley out of punt formation. The tight end plunged into the line and Penn State thought it had the ball back at the Crimson Tide 39. A measurement gave Alabama a first down by the nose of the ball, much to the dismay of most of the crowd.
With a second chance McCarron completed four passes, the last from 5 yards out to Williams.
Another long Alabama drive ended with Jason Shelley's 22-yard field goal in the second quarter. He added an 18-yarder in the third quarter to make it 20-3.
Penn State avoided another game without a touchdown against Alabama when Silas Redd scored from the 1 with 1:53 left in the game and Bolden ran in a 2-point conversion.
Alabama's trip to Happy Valley marked just the third time since 1981 that any SEC team had played at a Big Ten Stadium. The last time Alabama played at Penn State -- 1989 -- the Nittany Lions were still an independent.

Here's The Deal … If you're expecting points, and if you're hoping for a wild shootout, look elsewhere. Not only do Penn State and Alabama have two of the nation's best defenses, but historically, these two teams don't score when they play each other.
Alabama won last year 24-3 in a game that wasn't even that close. Penn State won 9-0 in 1990, Bama won 17-16 in 1989, 8-3 in 1988, and 24-13 in 1987. The two teams played several classics in the mid-1980s that had national title implications, and of course, the 1979 Sugar Bowl, a 14-7 Tide win for the national title, is known for one of the greatest goal line stands in college football history. Can these two recapture the magic of two decades ago? If the two defenses play as expected, and if the two offenses struggle as much as they did in Week One, it's possible.
This year, the showdown of superpower names will either be a speed bump for Alabama before dealing with the SEC season, or it'll be a program-changer for the Nittany Lions. Either way, getting points will be like pulling teeth.
Penn State hasn't exactly gotten stale under Joe Paterno – even though the Urban Meyer countdown clock is on – but the program could really, really, really use a big, splashy win against a superior team. There's been a little bit of luck against Ohio State, but the last win was in 2008, and the 2010 Capital One Bowl win over LSU was great, but after a listless 7-6 season, and with so many problems and concerns on offense, somehow getting by, arguably, the nation's best team, no matter how it happens, could end up being Paterno's biggest and most important win since the 2006 Orange Bowl. There have been some huge victories since then to propel the Nittany Lions to big seasons, but a win over the Tide might put the national title on the table again for the first time in a long time. With Temple, Eastern Michigan, and Indiana up next, followed up by home dates against Iowa and Purdue to kick off a run of four home games in five weeks, a shocking upset over the Tide could translate into a tremendous start. If Penn State is good enough to beat Alabama, it's good enough to start the year 9-0 before closing against Nebraska, Ohio State, and Wisconsin.
Alabama already is in the national title chase, and while it doesn't need to make any sort of a statement to stay in the top three of the rankings, any sort of a close call could send up warning flares. Penn State has a defense, but its offense doesn't have nearly enough firepower or nearly enough talent to do much against the Tide defense without getting a slew of big breaks. With North Texas up next before kicking off SEC play with Arkansas and a trip to Florida, if all goes according to plan, this might be nothing more than a very big, very interesting tune-up game before the real season starts in a few weeks.
Why Alabama Might Win: It's time to come out and say it, and it's time to stop sugar coating it: the Penn State quarterbacks are awful.
Rob Bolden has the skills and he has the upside and talent, but when given a shot against Indiana State – with one of the worst defenses in the FCS – he only completed 6-of-12 passes for 37 yards and did nothing to push the ball down the field. Matt McGloin had his moments when thrown into the fire last year, but he started to look like a walk-on late in the year - with a five-pick game against Florida – and was just okay last week completing 6-of-8 passes for 77 yards.
Alabama could eat these two alive.
Over the years under Nick Saban, the 3-4 defensive alignment has been a killer against the run but it isn't built to come up with a slew of quarterback sacks. That changed a bit last week against Kent State with four sacks, several pressures, and big play after big play, while allowing -9 yards rushing total. The Tide turned the dogs loose, and the Golden Flashes didn't go anywhere. Penn State isn't Kent State, but the offensive line played like it belonged in the MAC against Indiana State, giving up three sacks and not doing giving the quarterbacks enough time to work.
Penn State isn't going to run the ball like it did against the Sycamores, and the passing game was wildly inefficient against an awful secondary, so it'll be next to impossible to generate any points unless …
Why Penn State Might Win: … the turnovers start to flow. Beating 2011 Alabama wouldn't exactly be like stopping 1986 Miami, but it'll take a similar defensive effort and takeaway after takeaway after takeaway to make it happen. Alabama might have beaten Kent State 48-7 and was never threatened, but the quarterbacks combined for just one touchdown pass and four interceptions, while the running game lost one fumble. The running game was okay, but not great, and the passing game wasn't explosive, and now the O could have even bigger problems against a Penn State defense that's not getting a ton of national respect. At least not yet.
After dealing with a ton of key injuries last year, the Nittany Lion defense comes back loaded, aggressive, and with a big-time attitude. There aren't any bulletin board quotes coming out of this group, but there was a slow burn already starting this offseason that Alabama's defense is getting all the press and all the respect coming into this matchup.
It's not like the defense completely shut down Indiana State last week, but all the yards and the lone touchdown came late when all the dogs were called off. Kent State has a strong run defense, but if Bama couldn't crank out big yards last week, it's not going to get the running game going against a frothing-at-the-mouth Penn State defense that knows the game falls on its shoulders.
What To Watch Out For: Alabama running back Trent Richardson ran for three touchdowns against KSU, but he only ran for 37 yards on 13 carries and was held in check. This week, the Penn State defense is going to tee off to stop him and the running game until the Tide quarterbacks prove they can play.
AJ McCarron completed 14-of-23 passes for 226 yards and a touchdown, but he also threw two interceptions. Super-talent Phillip Sims didn't run well and completed just half his passes for 73 yards and two picks. That was fine against Kent State, but with the Bama defense likely to be a brick wall, the quarterbacks can't afford to give the ball away. It's possible to still win again with another five turnover game, but it'll be very, very scary if the Nittany Lions are given opportunity after opportunity.
Both teams are going to need production out of their big-play running backs. Penn State's Silas Redd put the game away last week with 104 yards and two touchdowns, averaging 8.7 yards per carry, and while the offense will spread the work around, he needs a little room to move to loosen up the Bama D. On the other side, while Richardson sputtered and struggled, Eddie Lacy was terrific with 76 yards on just three catches, to go along with 58 rushing yards and a score on eight carries.
What Will Happen: The first team to score wins? Penn State will come out fired up and will get the crowd in the game with two early stops, and then the rain will come. It won't exactly be Alabama-Michigan State in the 2011 Capital One Bowl, but the Penn State offense will have the same sort of day, helped out only because the defense will keep the game from getting out of hand in the first half. This is where Alabama turns the volume to 11, and after all the attention and love given to LSU after its win over Oregon, this is where the big statement comes.

Dinner for Schmucks (PG-13)
2 stars out of 4
Given the premise, source material and collective talent involved, it would be nearly impossible to make it through "Dinner for Schmucks" without laughing hard at least a couple of times. Even a broken clock is correct twice a day.
Rarely has a movie been able to appeal in some way to every comedic taste under the sun -- which is the film's only strength and its ultimate downfall. It wants to be everything to everybody and as a result, its hits are less frequent than its misses.
Feeling more like a variation on "The Cable Guy" than the French film ("Le Diner de Cons") from which it was adapted, "Dinner for Schmucks" has been getting less attention for content than its title. There are nearly a dozen English translations for the French word "cons" and none of them are printable here. When the film was exported to the rest of the world in 1998, it was rechristened with the lukewarm and yawn-inducing title "The Dinner Game."
Given your own understanding of the word, "schmucks" could also be shocking and profane and in context, still carries an equal level of insulting offensiveness. The "schmucks" in this movie aren't mentally disabled but are odd, eccentric and socially inept. For the most part they're safe and innocuous, but you can be sure some fringe group somewhere will scream foul citing political incorrectness and/or minority insensitivity sometime before the weekend is over.
The principal schmuck is Barry (Steve Carell), an IRS employee who spends every second of his free time creating painstakingly detailed dioramas featuring dead, stuffed mice dressed as humans. While bending over in a busy street to retrieve a freshly deceased vermin, Barry is hit by a car driven by Tim (Paul Rudd), an up-and-comer at an investment firm whose top brass hosts a weekly dinner party specifically designed to make fun of people like Barry.
In no time, Tim realizes Barry would make the perfect dinner guest -- something that would ensure him a place within a most pathetic inner circle of wealthy cretins. There's just once catch: Tim's classy, art curator girlfriend Julie (Stephanie Szostak) rightfully finds the whole frat-boy practice deplorable and threatens to leave him if he goes through with it.
With about 15 minutes of perfect setup under their belts, director Jay Roach (the "Meet the Parents" and "Austin Powers" franchises) and screenwriters David Guion and Michael Handelman spend the better part of the next hour on largely unrelated possible love triangle subplots involving Tim, Julie, Barry, a self-absorbed primitive artist, a female stalker, Barry's power-mad co-worker and someone's ex-spouse. Also in the mix is a filthy rich art collector from an unspecified European country who appears to have something funny to say but never delivers.
A few viewers will appreciate Carell here because Barry is a near carbon-copy of his Michael Scott character from "The Office." Clueless, abrasive, backslapping and lacking a brain-to-mouth filter, Barry is essentially Michael's shut-in, underachieving brother. Rudd is good and even better when doing physical sight gags but he has shown brighter in other movies and is left holding the largely thankless, straight-man bag.
Far more comfortable with broad and mainstream, Roach occasionally dips his toe into the bleak, edgy end of the humor pool but quickly withdraws it every time. He should have done the whole movie like "Meet the Parents" or passed altogether. This material is highly flexible in nature but can only rendered loud and obvious or squirmy and dark. There is no workable middle ground. (Paramount)
