Bernanke Warns of Weakened Economic Rebound
- Details
- Published on Tuesday, 17 November 2009 11:04
Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke offered a dreary assessment Monday of how the economic recovery will unfold, warning that persistent high unemployment, tepid bank lending and continued troubles in commercial real estate would blemish and weaken the rebound.
His comments, before a gathering of economists and Wall Street veterans in New York, marked a mild departure for the Fed chief.

Posted: 12/27/2013 - THIS is the strangest dynamic I've EVER seen for the UK-UL get together. Saturday's match-up is barley moving the public passion needle and I think there are a number of factors causing that to happen.
Updated: 12/27/2013 - Willie Cauley-Stein and Julius Randle should be key figures in Kentucky's matchup with Louisville Saturday.
Updated: 12/26/2013 - UK coach John Calipari said Louisville plays harder. His players don't seem to agree. The annual Kentucky-Louisville battle is set for Saturday in Rupp Arena.

Build Her a Myth
Works by Carrie Ann Schumacher
August 1 - 27, 2014
Artist Statement
When I came across a box of fifty free romance novels at the library where I was working, I initially had no idea what I was going to do with them. But something within them spoke to me, and I knew I had to take them. I considered the roles that romance novels, the beauty industry and the fashion world play within our culture; the three share definite commonalities, as they all thrive on fantasy and define femininity for many. I combined these worlds into one unwearable and fragile garment as a way to speak to the visibility and invisibility of different aspects of womanhood. As I release the finished artworks into the world, I hope they share these stories wherever they go.
With Every End is a Beginning
Works by Bogumil Bronkowski
September 2 - 25, 2014
Artist statement
I immigrated to America at the age of nine, leaving behind everything I had ever known in Poland and entering a land where I did not know the customs and language. At the time, I thought my family and I were merely visiting America on vacation; I did not realize that I was never going home. My work explores the journey of immigration both specifically and generally. I study my own tale of immigration and immigrant status by combining the legends and stories of my homeland with the narrative of my own personal history as a Pole living in America. The creation of my own folklore and myths allows me to create a space where I belong.

FOTOFOCUS Biennial 2014,
A Greater Cincinnati Celebration of Photography
October 1 - 27, 2014
Opening reception- Thursday, October, 2, 4:30 - 6 pm
Exhibit Statement
Even though quite different in their esthetic approach and subject matter, the respective works of these three photographers yet share a strong commonality; they each address a transformation of a given state, transformation caused either by time, or by nature or by man's own act.
Matt Dwyer's pictures represent images he took of trash sludge, hydraulic oil, various chemicals of the trash industry, and that he transmuted into beautifully recreated abstract and colorful 'landscapes'. "Working on industrial size trash compactors, cleaning their clogged garbage and fixing their broken parts, I daily dreaded coming to work in the sludge of other people's trash," he says. "I eventually began to photograph what I saw, capturing the colors, textures and angles of my job sites. I was changing the horrifying into something beautiful."
William Howes takes pictures of old abandoned houses reclaimed by time and neglect. Their original beauty is transmuted into the spontaneous beauty caused by abandonment and decay. When first built these structures were cherished and admired. Now abandoned, they try to survive on their own awaiting the moment when they will disappear forever.
Michael Wilson's pictures of delicate tendrils of grapevines are beautiful testament to life and growth. Wilson captures their graceful and fragile shape, yet one that knowingly provides strength and support to the entire plant. "These slender and whimsical shapes are to me like small hints, clues and reminders that growth is molded by the resistance and support of that which surrounds," he says. The fragile tendrils he portrays are transmuted by nature into solid anchors, essential for life.

Artist Statement
My work has focused on the cephalopods (squid, octopus and cuttlefish) adaptive coloration as a biological model that codes and re-maps visual information such as avant-garde paintings, photographs, and video. Although the objectives for cuttlefish are very different from those of artists—survival and reproduction for the cuttlefish and aesthetics and metaphysics for artists—the fundamental three-step structure [exterior information - the environment, an individual interpretation - the act of camouflage or painting, and visual output - the new shape and color or the painting itself] remains very similar between them. This parallel between the process of paintings/digital images and cuttlefish camouflage behavior is the main premise of this project.
International Education Week
This exhibit has been scheduled with special consideration and to assist in the promotion of international education on the UC Clermont College campus. International Education Week (IEW) is a joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and U.S. Department of Education that provides an opportunity to celebrate the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide. This annual initiative aims to promote international understanding and build support for international educational exchange by encouraging the development of programs that prepare Americans to live and work in a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study in the United States.

January 6 - 27, 2015
Artist Statement
I am interested in surfaces and their relationship to what lies beneath – the discrepancy between what we see and what we know. I am drawn to photography because of its ubiquitous presence in our culture and its duplicitous existence as both an indexical representation of reality and a subjective construction of it. It is a slippery medium that easily shifts from scientific documentation of a moment in time to a subjective construction of reality. I am interested in the space where these qualities contradict each other and coexist simultaneously.

Artist Statement
My work synthesizes elements of history, mythology, and pop culture into a narrative system that investigates the unstable nature of meaning in contemporary culture. This narrative system addresses themes of science, religion, sports, war, and economics. Each of these represents a complex human endeavor that searches for some kind of truth or absolutism, yet can be manipulated to serve the ideological needs of those in power.
Works by Marty Weishaar
June 3 - 25, 2015
Artist Statement
My material investigation teeters on the universal, the craft and the 'painting process'. The mountains and cardboard forts are built from recycled cardboard boxes. The moving boxes are re-appropriated- they exist in real time before and after the move. John Henry is a self-portrait, either he gets on the train or he dies. Having said that, I am in love with the process of building. It's a wonderful and fantastic mindset to have- this is my space and you are welcome to come in. Knowing that, it is not going to last, this space will fall apart- my space, built with my hands, lives in the community. The community space that I help to occupy is falling apart and I don't know how to save it.

Contemporary Style Tips
Contemporary lighting is one that demands attention. Contemporary interior design is the opposite of traditional. It involves clean-lines and interesting, artistic styling.
What Makes a Light Contemporary in Design? Contemporary Lights
Contemporary design relies on clean lines, smooth and polished surfaces, and few intricate details. It is not stark and cold, but contemporary design is comfortable and spacious, without clutter.
Today's lighting design is used as an artistic statement in a contemporary interior. Floor and table lamps have straight lines and sleek metallic finishes. Color may be introduced with a special shade. Focus is placed on recessed or track lighting that draws attention to well-placed art and accessories.
Creating a contemporary look with lighting can be achieved with fixtures that match your home's interior décor, or with the selection of lighting effects. There are many design options available in various sizes, styles, shapes and colors. Selections are including chandeliers, semi-flush ceiling fixtures, hanging pendants, and sconces to name a few.
Evolution of Contemporary Style
There's much confusion over the design terms "modern" and "contemporary." The words are often used interchangeably yet both are completely different decorating styles.
The Modern style is basically the design and decor of the Modernism movement which begun in the very late 1800s. Birthed by the German Bauhaus schools of design and the Scandinavian design emphasis on simplicity and function, the Modern Style is actually very old.
The Contemporary style became popular in the 1970s and was originally a blend of styles before it became recognizable on its own. Contemporary design did borrow a few elements from Modernism and Postmodernism, but it also gathered ideas from many other styles such as Art Deco, Futurism and more.
Achieving a Contemporary Lighting Style
Contemporary design deals with "the present moment", the style of the design is of the day. Contemporary design is known to feature reflective surfaces, clean and sleek lines, innovative graphical patterns, unusual colors, rounded forms, and asymmetrical designs. In this design style you have the liberty to play with colors and patterns. Lots of polished marble, Lucite and stainless steel details are embedded in the design. The other materials used in contemporary design are recycled materials and variations of chrome, plastic and plaster. The tenets of contemporary style are open ended. As a result, new colors and pieces can be incorporated over time.

Packers hand Texans first loss, 42-24
The Houston Texans had a chance to remain undefeated and show just how good they could be in front of a national television audience for the second time in a week.
Instead, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers stole the spotlight.
The reigning MVP set a career high and tied a franchise record with six touchdown passes and the Packers played their best game of their so far inconsistent season, beating Houston 42-24 on Sunday night.
''Tonight wasn't our night. We didn't have a good showing,'' defensive end J.J. Watt said of the Texans, who beat the Jets 23-17 on Monday night. ''We are going to come back to practice this week, fix our mistakes, get it all corrected, and we will be just fine next week.''
Jordy Nelson caught three touchdown passes and James Jones had two, including a beautiful, diving one-hander in the fourth quarter for the Packers (3-3). Tom Crabtree had the other, a 48-yarder that Rodgers threw just before taking a hit from Texans' outside linebacker Brooks Reed.
Rodgers completed 24 of 37 passes for 338 yards. He tied Matt Flynn's game record for TD passes, set in last year's regular-season finale against Detroit with Rodgers resting on the sideline in advance of the playoffs.
Arian Foster scored two touchdowns, but ran for only 29 yards for the Texans (5-1).
The loss leaves the Atlanta Falcons (6-0) as the only unbeaten team in the NFL.
Houston had the league's third-ranked defense and badly missed star linebacker Brian Cushing, who was placed on injured reserve after tearing a knee ligament in the game against the Jets.
''There are no excuses here,'' Texans coach Gary Kubiak said. ''We got beat across the board. They got after us early.''
Houston is off to its best start in franchise history, while Rodgers and the Packers had been strangely erratic. But the Texans looked like the team out of sorts from the start on Sunday night.
Rookie DeVier Posey lined up offside on a Green Bay punt, resulting in a Packers' first down. Rodgers then lofted a perfect pass to Nelson over the shoulder of cornerback Johnathan Joseph for a 41-yard touchdown, stunning the noisy crowd.
Houston's offensive line also looked shaky. The Packers sacked Matt Schaub on each of Houston's first two series, forcing quick punts. Schaub was only sacked three times in the first five games.
''It's very disappointing to go out in front of our home crowd on Sunday night and have it turn out the way it did,'' Schaub said. ''We didn't play up to our standard, up to our level of expectations that we have around here across the board, that's everybody.''
Watt sacked Rodgers, and fired up the fans by mimicking Rodgers' ''championship belt'' pose after the play. Watt, who finished with two sacks, came into the game with 7 1-2 sacks, just behind Green Bay's Clay Matthews, who led the league with eight.
That didn't faze Rodgers, who eluded a rush from Connor Barwin and completed a 24-yard pass to Randall Cobb, who had seven catches for 102 yards. Jones made a diving, fingertip catch in the end zone just before the end of the first quarter for a 14-0 lead.
Foster finished a 5-minute drive with a short touchdown run, but the Packers had a quick answer. Rodgers found Nelson with a 21-yard touchdown to cap a smooth drive that took less than 4 minutes.
Rodgers completed 15 of 21 passes for 187 yards and was only sacked once in the first half. He connected with six receivers, and didn't miss Greg Jennings, who sat out again with a groin injury.
Not that they needed it, but the Texans helped Rodgers with some untimely penalties.
A holding call wiped out an 11-yard touchdown run by Rodgers. But Barwin stepped on another player's back trying to block Mason Crosby's field-goal attempt, an unsportsmanlike conduct call resulting in a first down.
Safety Danieal Manning was called for a personal foul after a whistle on a third-down play, and Rodgers threw another TD pass for a 28-10 lead.
Rookie receiver Keshawn Martin made two first-down catches late in the third quarter and Foster scored again. Cobb returned the ensuing kickoff to the Packers' 43, and Rodgers went back to work. On third down, he scrambled to his right and threw to Crabtree, who was wide open and waltzed into the end zone.
Sam Shields intercepted Schaub and fans started filing for the exits, with more than 14 minutes remaining. Shields left the game later with a shin injury.
Bryan Braman blocked Tim Masthay's punt and Posey recovered in the end zone with 5:30 left.
NOTES: Texans WR Andre Johnson caught eight passes for 75 yards, going over 10,000 yards receiving in his career. ... The Texans made a field goal for the 16th consecutive game, a franchise record. ... The announced attendance was 71,702, a record for a regular-season game at Reliant Stadium.

India's political capital Delhi and financial hub Mumbai have been ranked among the least expensive cities around the world by a survey, even as cost for food and housing in the country continues to rise.
According to a research by Swiss Banking major UBS, Delhi and Mumbai were at the bottom of the price range in the list of most expensive cities that surveyed 73 places worldwide.
On the other hand Oslo, Zurich and Copenhagen were ranked among the most expensive places with skyrocketing living costs in the world.
The findings come at a time when the food and commodities are getting dearer and a drought-like situation is likely to push the prices further up.
Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee recently said the government is likely to resort to imports to maintain demand supply gap as production of foodgrains and agri-commodities are set to fall due to deficient monsoon.
Interestingly, many cities spread across less developed economies were ranked ahead of the two major Indian cities in the list of most expensive places.
The survey highlighted that many of the world's regions witnessed a switch in their rankings, in the wake of the financial crisis and fluctuating currency scenario.
"Currency devaluation pushed down prices in many emerging market cities. Prices slipped the most in Mexico City, Moscow and Seoul," the UBS report said.
Besides, London the second most expensive city in 2006, plummeted 20 places following the steep devaluation of the pound.
The price spread between the most expensive and the cheapest city was the widest in Asia.
While Tokyo ranks as one of the world's five costliest cities, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, Delhi and Mumbai form the lowest rung.
In terms of wages, workers in Tokyo earn the highest wages in Asia while employees in Copenhagen, Zurich, Geneva and New York have the highest gross wages.
By contrast, the average employee in Delhi, Manila, Jakarta and Mumbai earns less than one-fifteenth of what their counterparts in Switzerland earn on an hourly basis after taxes.
Interestingly, an average wage-earner in Zurich and New York can buy an iPod nano from an Apple store after nine hours of work. At the other end of the spectrum, workers in Mumbai, need to work 20 nine-hour days — roughly the equivalent of one month's salary — to purchase the nano.
Living costs were calculated based on a survey of 154 items, including 122 products and services that are used directly to calculate the reference basket.

President Vladimir Putin is generally fond of blaming the West for the ills besetting Russia. This week though, he admitted in his State of the Nation speech that the roots of Russia's sluggish economy may lie at home rather than abroad. The government expects the economy to expand a measly 1.4 percent this year (less than half of the growth the US is likely to see) and long-term growth estimates have been trimmed to 2.5 percent a year.

Banks cannot ease Ukraine's reserve pain
The latest data from Ukraine shows its hard currency reserves fell $2 billion over November to $18.9 billion. That's perilously low by any measure. (Check out this graphic showing how poorly Ukraine's reserve adequacy ratios compare with other emerging markets: http://link.reuters.com/quq25v)

The fate of Ukraine's hryvnia currency hangs by a thread. Will that thread break?
Emerging stocks lose again in November
By Shadi Bushra
After years of basking in their reputation as high-return hot spots, 2013 could be the year emerging equity markets finally lost their magic touch. Last month continued the litany of losses — seventeen of the 20 emerging markets listed on S&P Dow Jones indices ended November in the red, the index provider says. Contrast that with developed markets' fortunes last month– 18 of the markets listed by the index rose, while eight fell.
Perfect storm brewing for the rouble
A perfect storm seems to be brewing for the Russian rouble. It has tumbled to four-year lows against a euro-dollar basket. Against the dollar, it has lost around 7 percent so far this year, faring better than many other emerging currencies. But signs are that next year will bring more turmoil.
Revitalised West knocks Brazil, Russia off global growth Top-30
By Shadi Bushra
Yet another sign of the growth convergence between developed and emerging markets. Two of the "BRIC' countries have dropped out of the Top-30 in a growth index compiled by political risk consultancy Maplecroft, while several Western powerhouses have nudged their way onto the list.

What a dire year for emerging debt. According to JPMorgan, which runs the most widely run emerging bond indices, 2013 is likely to be the first year since 2008 that all three main emerging bond benchmarks end the year in the red.

Sales of dollar bonds by emerging governments may surge 20 percent over 2013 levels, analysts at Barclays calculate. They predict $94 billion in bond issuance in 2014 compared to $77 billion that seems likely this year. In net terms –excluding amortisations and redemptions — that will come to $29 billion, almost double this year's $16 billion.
Venezuelan bonds — storing up problems
Last week's victory for Miss Venezuela in a global beauty pageant was a rare bit of good news for the South American country. With a black market currency exchange rate that is 10 times the official level, shortages of staples, inflation over 50 percent and political turmoil, Venezuela certainly won't win any investment pageants.

gotta give soviets credit for what they made, there stuff might not be fancy or top of the line but it will work when you need it and its everywhere.
This group is for everyone who like tanks, sci-fi tanks, real tanks, funny tanks, you can put here tank mods, tank maps, simply everything with straps, armor and gun :D
gotta give soviets credit for what they made, there stuff might not be fancy or top of the line but it will work when you need it and its everywhere.
for its time its pretty good tank)
Yeah but USA pu..ies will still whine. About how much their thinks are better then anything russian made.
well with american tanks we won most of our wars against the t-'s so i guess they are better but no tank is supreme its just a matter of who's using it...
The T-55 for tanks is the same as AK-47 for rifles, and MiG-21 for airplanes- all of them are Soviet legends. Anyway, Soviets really knew how to make stuff- all we use is actually upgraded/modernized Soviet technology (for countries who used or still use Soviet tech).
USA won most of the wars because of the heavy Air support (WW2, all Middle Eastern wars...). For example, during Korea war, US tank crew were talking how they were easily destroyed T-34/85 with their "Pershings", but they never mention how they were terrified when the first T-55s appeared in front of them. (Nearly)Same applies to Vietnamese war. During Persian Gulf Wars, most of the
T-72/T-62/T-55 were destroyed by the US Air Force. And, there was an advantage over Iraqi T-s - and that's the electronics in Abrams's.
Don't forget that Iraqui T-72 were monkey models Assad-Babyl of a further downgrade export T-72 model !!! And their APFSDS (in the T-72 Assad-Babyl) were made of hardened tool steel, instead of DU-238 or Tungsten alloy. Their armor were made of construction steel grade, no composite involve there ! And it didn't had ERA !!! What a pity !!! No infrared-night vision, but stupid lamps to see in the dark. You got easily spotted !
Its pretty damn good. But erm, technically, the Centurion was the first MBT by about a year.
The tank the revolutionized armored warfare.
The tank that seen action in every conflict after WWII.
The tank which outproduced every other of it's counterparts.
Tha tank that will take the worst of abuse and would still keep on fighting.
The tank that is after 60 years, can still be a deadly adversary.
The T-55. The first main battle tank.

After nearly two months of refurbishment, we are back to feed you with London's best pizza!!
Hi everybody
As you might have noticed, we are closed for refurbishment. Brand new kitchen, toilets, better soil for the oven and a light restyling are going on. We know that many whitdrawn symptoms are going on in London, we are the first to crave our pizza badly, but bear with us, we will be back soon.
We are aiming to open the first week of february, and when we'll open we are going to celebrate our 5th birthday with a beautiful surprise.
Just stay connected on:
instagram : Santamariapizza
twitter @santamariapizza
See you soon!!
Recently Evening Standardwrote again about us. But this time not because we send home some girls who ordered a salad, but because we have been voted the number one pizza to try before you die!
Always pleased when our efforts to make the best and the most authentic pizza are rewarded.
So…mangia Santa Maria e poi muori!
Oliver Thring writes a piece on the Financial Times sunday magazine about the best 5 pizzas in London. Of course only the finest pizzas are involved, the poshest! And we are proud to be one of them.
Oliver Thring writes a piece on the Financial Times sunday magazine about the best 5 pizzas in London. Of course only the finest pizzas are involved, the poshest! And we are proud to be one of them.
A short promo to explain who we are, what we do and why we do it.
Thanks to Adam Tranter @ fusion-media.co.uk and his crew, to make this beautiful video.
To all our customers,
Our opening times over the Christmas period are:
Closed from the 22nd of December until the 4th of January
We wish to everyone a wonderful Christmas and a prosperous and smashing 2012.
The staff at Santa Maria.
Recently our pizzeria made it into one of the most popular free newspapers of London, "The Evening Standard".
The reason? A bit controversial reason, ctualy, if we believe what was written on the paper.
No, we are not that bad, we have our policy of requiring our customers to have a pizza each, but we are quite flexible, especially on the quiet hours of the day. But if on a busy saturday night, four people want to have two pizza and one salad (which is a side dish), while there is more than forty people on the waiting list, you'd better give the chance to enjoy London's best pizza to someone else. It's a small place, sixteen seats, and there is people that comes all over the city to enjoy and appreciate our efforts, to make the best product we do. It's not about the money, it's about the pizza, that is why we are for, and we are very proud of what we do. We do our best to source the best ingredients, build the best oven, hire the best chefs in order to provide for the best pizza you can ever have in London, that is what we are famous for.
Of course the news was all over the places, everybody was talking about us and people that have never been here, didn't have a good opinion about us. Fortunately our customers, and people who has been here and love what we do, took our side and gave us loads of support.
The main outcome? Well, the day after we were in the BBC World Service studios to talk about this!!
"Olive" the BBC magazine dedicated to food, revealed the list of the Best Alternative Restaurant 2011, and Santa Maria made in the "Honourable Mentions".
We always known that Santa Maria is an alternative place, but now we've got it confirmed from the BBC!
During the infamous days filled with thefts and lootings (We don't feel to call them riots!) Our shop has been attacked by a bunch of guys. Fortunately the consequences and the damages weren't as big as the ones of the other shops in our area, but the shock and the feelings of fear during those hours, won't be forgotten.
A prayer goes to Richard Bowes, who lost his life to defend his street from the attacks.
A wish of going back to normality soon goes to all our colleagues, shop owners that have been attacked and their business and life affected
And a special thanks goes to all our customers, friends and Ealing residents, that showed their love and support during those terrible days. Your support has been bigger than other gesture and made us even prouder to belong to this beautiful community. Grazie
This is a CCTV footage of the attack of our shop. We hope that we won't witness those scenes anymore.
For the past 16 months, the comment we have heard the most was "You need a bigger place" or "You need to expand". But we love St.Mary's Road and our great location and we are not very keen on moving anywhere else. So the best thing we could have done was to give our customers a bit more space: 10 more seats that make a huge difference to everyone. Now queues are incredibly short and waiting time has significantly reduced. Santa Maria can now accommodate all of its customers!

Bryzgalov's interview to Sports. ru; Part I
I would like to offer you another interview with Iliya Bryzgalov to Sports. ru. I will omit some of the parts that I already translated in the other post. Also, as usual I will keep the style as close to the source as possible. In addition, I need to say, that translating Bobs interviews is much easier :)
The Iliya Bryzgalovs rules of lifeBy Artem Zyryanov
I have never had idols.
To tell you the truth, I am indifferent to fans. I can explain why. When you ok and play well they worship you; but when you on a decline- you become an enemy # 1. At some point of my career I missed almost a year due to injury. I saw a lot during that time and understood a lot.
I do not feel any pressure on the ice and I do not get nervous. I just relax and play. Hockey is entertainment and I have to have fun from it.
There are people who accept me, but there are some that do not. Its their personal choice. I do not try to be liked.
I cant say that I am a philosopher. But I read philosophy books because they are of interest to me. I am interested in these people thoughts, the ways they came to their conclusions. Just do not think that I spend all my time studying ancient philosophers. But sometimes I think about their theories, their reasoning. But again, its just sometimes.
I like Socrates. He states that nothing in this world as it seems. One can say to you that this is black and you agree; and then he will prove to you that its white and you will agree again. And then he will ask you how come you agreed to these statements; and you will ask yourself:Why is that?
I taught myself not to get carried away when praised and not to get upset when scolded. Nothing is as it seems, as I said before.
California is the best place to play hockey. You wake up in a morning, go to work and its sunny. And its not -30 frost or rainy. Its a heavenly place for hockey, honestly.
America is what I need. There is no rush. Its quiet, calm and safe.
I have considered Los Angeles as a home town for many years now. I am very comfortable there. I am getting tired of Moscow, it depresses me. I like Russia. But while my children are little, they better off in America.
I am not interested in talking to other hockey players; I practically do not have friends among them. The exception is Datsyuk. I like communicating with him, but my close friends are the guys I grew up with.
I have a very few friends, in general. But I maintain good relationship with everyone.
My previous outlook on life was in my way. I have thought a lot: what is slowing me down? Began to change myself. That Bryzgalov was a good fellow, just was not wise.
You know what I dislike the most? Stupidity and injustice. I have a trait to rebel against them.
I am old-fashioned. I do not like to read on a screen, I need to hold a book, flip the pages.
There is a difference between G_d and a church for me. G_d is everywhere, and a church is just a mean to control people. I cant say that everything is false in church, but a church is just a man who has read books. I talked to a lot of clergy men and have not found answers to my questions.
I would love to learn to drive a space rocket. I dream of going to space, even though its expensive. I am honest, dont laugh. Please realize, I not interested in routine life.
I use taxi services in Russia. I have 2 BMWs in America. I value comfort and safety in cars. (May be he will replace Richards in WG BMW Commercials. CSKA:( )
Even if I had time I would not watch TV in Russia. I do not watch it in America either.
I have a TV, but there is nothing to watch besides news.
You cant measure everything with money. If you have a chance to play in the NHL you must take it, otherwise you are coward. I cant say that a hockey player has had a good career if he has not tried himself in the strongest league in the world.
I had to go through all the levels of hockey hell to enjoy everything in hockey today.
I am afraid of heights. I used to enjoy roller coasters, but I had a fear once that something might happen. Why risk? And I am not going on any rides anymore. I have not had and do not have a fear of flying.
I lost all the interest in alcohol. I do not need it. No one will beg you to drink in America if you do not want to. Its not Russia. I have to ask people here to leave me alone.
What is the sense of life? Love. But not to a certain person. Love to everything that surrounds you. Then you achieve harmony, like me.
To be continued later on today
Goalies are odd balls, lol. So long as the puck hits him, whatever.
Wow, interviews are a lot different in Russia. I like that they ask athletes vexing questions and the athlete does not make up a reason for not answering it. He appears to be a pretty honest person with the media and I think that is a good trait to have. Some may try to spin it as him being an odd ball or weird, but I believe answering these kinds of questions are perfectly normal and are a nice change of pace to the cliched hockey interview question and answers.
"I would love to learn to drive a space rocket."
You know what I dislike the most? Stupidity and injustice. I have a trait to rebel against them.
LOL. wait he gets to deal with the Philly media.
if not everything can be measured by money, then why did you want to be the highest paid goalie in the league?
timmeh p's gonna love this guy.
hahaha that article was great, thanks for posting it
"I would love to learn to drive a space rocket."
He's already my favorite goalie since Hextall with that one. :laugh:
I like this guy. :handclap:
Ha, I liked that CSKA ommitted the part where Bryz states that he doesn't bribe Russian cops out of principal. You guys wouldn't understand. :D
I am not interested in talking to other hockey players; I practically do not have friends among them. The exception is Datsyuk. I like communicating with him, but my close friends are the guys I grew up with.
I'm not really a fan of this. I don't want him to feel like an outcast, maybe Bob stays and they can be Russian friends.
[QUOTE=xX LURKIN Xx;34162429]I am not interested in talking to other hockey players; I practically do not have friends among them.
"That way they do not make the sexy-rocket with my wife."
Bryz is already my favorite Flyer. :laugh:
Bryz is going to be my first ever goalie jersey purchased. He is the freakin' man.
I love his interviews. Behind Hexie/Parent I think I have a new goalie favorite.
Great article. Thanks for posting!
Atta guy, Bryz!

Crop damage attributed to poor surface drainage system and weak canal bunds
A team of scientists from various agriculture research institutes, who inspected the inundated crops in the seven coastal districts, have advised the farmers to take up alternative crops within a month to offset the losses to some extent.
They said the crops were damaged extensively due to poor surface drainage system and weak canal bunds in the delta area and in Khammam and Warangal districts. Paddy, cotton, maize, chilli, tobacco, pulses, onion, and vegetable crops suffered maximum damage.
Following the requisition made by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) member M.V.S. Nagireddy, a team of six scientists headed by Central Research Institute for Dryland Agriculture (CRIDA) Director B. Venkateswarlu, Directorate of Rice Research B. Virakat Math, and Central Institute for Cotton Research (CICR) Joint Director O.M. Bambawale visited the districts in the State.
CRIDA principal scientist Y.G. Prasad told reporters that paddy crop was completely damaged in Tullur, Tadikonda, Mangalagiri, Prathipadu, Paruchur, Pedda Nandipadu, and Kakumanu mandals in Guntur and Prakasam districts.
Alternative crops
CICR scientist V. Chinna Babu Naik said cotton crop which had come to final picking stage got germinated on the plants. In many acres, cotton crop was damaged due to moisture and water logging for many days, he observed.
CRIDA senior scientist K. Venkateswara Rao advised farmers to sow bengal gram, maize, and vegetables within a month to recover from the losses. The three teams that visited the affected areas would submit a report to the Centre on the crop loss due to the calamity, he said.

People will spend all day moaning on the forums how much they hate grind, then go off and grind it nonetheless.
You can not, in any way shape or form, release new content fast enough to keep people happy. You have to have content that is repeatable and gives people long term goals. Having nothing to aim for loses subs, as their studies have shown. the plugged the people leaving by adding more endgame and grind. its not a perfect solution but it works.
yes, having too much grind can be counter productive if it becomes unobtainable and people lose interest, but none of the grind is that crazy here. its all quite obtainable.

Dublin, Ireland
My Rating
The Castle makes this trip worth doing it is beautiful and a must do in my opinion if traveling to Ireland. Unfortunately the other parts of this trip is just a waste of time. Not in a bad way but really that's what it is. There must not be much more to do around there. So they have to do something
Edinburgh, United Kingdom
My Rating
Just a wonderful trip the majesty of the country during the drive with the history and stories from the guide. The drive alone with those views makes this trip worth every penny even if you are not as lucky as us and see that elusive monster.

Silica nanoparticles used to make mosquito-repellant clothing
Silica nanoparticles deposited on textile fibers, using the NANOMOSKI process
The NANOMOSKI process utilizes silica nanoparticles to render clothing mosquito-repellant
Article Summary
For many of us, mosquitoes are an irritating pest that can ruin any number of outdoor activities. For many others, however, they are also spreaders of malaria – a disease which infected approximately 216 million people in 2010, according to an estimate by the World Health Organization. Repeatedly slathering on bug repellant is one way of dealing with the insects, although wearing clothing made from mosquito-repellant fabric sounds a lot more preferable. While existing mozzie-unfriendly garments have some limitations, Portuguese tech company Nanolabel has developed a new treatment process that it claims is far superior to traditional technology.

35 temporary health inspectors to monitor anti-dengue measures
A nominal penalty is levied on those piling up waste materials and scrap tyres, Collector Jayashree Muralidharan has said.
In a press release issued in Tiruchi on Wednesday, the Collector spoke about the anti-dengue measures being taken up in the district for the past several weeks.
A massive cleanliness campaign was taken up jointly by the health, revenue, education, and nutritious meal departments and all dengue-prone areas were cleared of waste materials. All overhead tanks were also chlorinated.
These measures have gone a long way in bringing down the incidence of the disease in the district in the past one month, she said.
However, a sustained inspection is being launched in the rural pockets in which health workers, revenue personnel, members of the Mahatma Gandhi Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme, and members of self-help groups would monitor public health and destroy waste materials.
A nominal penalty has been imposed on those found piling up waste materials at private shops, public places and cinema halls. The Collector appealed to the members of the public to extend their cooperation to the drive.
Temporary appointment
She said that the district administration would immediately appoint on temporary basis, 35 health inspectors and seven taluk health supervisors to monitor anti-dengue programme in the rural areas. Retired health inspectors of the Health Department would be appointed in these posts on a contract basis. Interested persons could contact the Joint Director of Health and Family Services, immediately, she said.
Corporation's efforts
V.P. Thandapani, Corporation Commissioner, said that 12 teams have been constituted for checking the incidence of dengue in the city. He has specifically advised those constructing new buildings to avoid keeping water in open drums and other materials.
The Corporation authorities would destroy such drums and would impose fine on such builders.

I was just reading a post from mamamilk about a hebrew digestion prayer, and it made me think about blessing food before we eat it.
Disclaimer: this is not a religious thing. At least not for me anyway! But for some people it probably is, and that's okay too!
Anyway, I was thinking that if anyone wanted to share their short blessings they say before they eat, they would be really nice to read. I think that food blessings are especially nice for children :)
Anyway, here is the one that we say in my family. We've been saying it since my daughter was 4 or so. My husband and I wanted to think of one that really affirmed the connection between food and our bodies:
"God bless this food, we're about to receive, into our bodies, and will become us."
That's it. I never eat without saying it..
Here is another one that we used to sing with the children when I worked at a Waldorf school. I think it is especially beautiful:
"For leaves so tall, and skies so blue, for friends and food, We thank you" and then we would say, "blessings on this food and upon the hands of those who made it."
Does anyone else have any others to share?
My husband and I always say blessings before we eat our food but it is actually a prayer to God. It's really nice anyway though because it forces us to stop thinking about whatever we were thinking about and really just let everything go and enjoy our food. Very peaceful. It's also brings us close together because we're both focused on one thing at that moment.
Great for families.
In the meditation group where I belong we every time offer our meal to the Supreme saying: "Food is God"
I give a (nontheistic) mental thanks every time I eat. It's a feeling of total gratefulness to the universe that I can provide for myself, that I have access to nutritious food when so many go without.
Nice thoughts TJAB. Yes. In our house, we bless God and thank Him for His provision.
I really like the concept of Hebrew blessings because there are blessings (like one sentence) for the type of nourishment you are eating or drinking – there's one for vegetable, for fruit, for grain, for wine, for smelling fruit or spices even! It's really quite lovely. And typically the blessing is focused more on blessing God Himself for the food. And also, grace is said after meals as well, in acknowledgement that God is the One providing sustenance.
From a website (lovely thoughts): Chassidic teachings explain that all food contains a G-dly spark of holiness. When we say a blessing before eating, and eat with the intention to serve G-d, we actually elevate the physical substance of the food into holiness. This holy spark, which is inherent in the food, becomes reunited with its Divine source.
Years ago I did volunteer work at a small Camphill village in Germany – Dorfgemeinschaft Lehenhof in Deggenhausertal.
It was great. It was a self-supported little community of physically & mentally challenged individuals and family-like support staff.
It reminded me of a kibbutz…
They had their own bakery, agriculture, greenhouses, dairy, wool-spinning etc…
And all of the 'villagers', as they were called, got to learn how to maximize their creativity ie—to play musical instruments or learn how to spin wool if they wanted etc..
We as volunteers worked along with the villagers in their daily work duties.. either harvesting crops or working in the bakery, greenhouse, dairy etc… or doing some house chores or meal preparation.
The villagers lived in family-style (not institutional) group homes with 'parents' who ran the house.
Before each meal we would briefly hold hands at the table and simply say "Wir danken" ("We give thanks").
It was a nice (non-denominational) expression of gratitude. Peaceful & simple.
End note…
It was (& is) a very special place to me because I have an older sister who is mentally challenged.
Thank you for this food you have given me for my body. Bless it and sanctify it.
Oh, greenghost, I've always wanted to work at a camphill village. My friend, an anthroposophist and former waldorf teacher is studying medicine so that he can start one in Oregon soon. I can't wait. It sounds like you had such a beautiful experience there :)
I love working with people with disabilities, they are such a gift and we have so much to learn from them.
Thanks jellibi yes it was great. I enjoyed the experience so much that I did it again 2 years later.
The plans that your anthroposophist friend has sound really promising.
All the best to you too!

Passionate case for the role of librarians in society. One of the questions my documentary is seeking it answer is, "If libraries are important, then why are so many of them faced with cutbacks and closures?" I wonder if it is because librarians need to change more with the times?

The proper repair for a leaking Steering Rack & Pinion is replacement with a new unit.
2008 Toyota Camry Problem Reports
RepairPal Verified 2008 Toyota Camry Problem Reports
Intermittent failure of a purge control valve in the evaporative emission system can cause the Check Engine Light to illuminate. A failed valve should be replaced to correct this problem.
The valve cover gaskets have a tendency to leak oil, especially the one near the firewall.
The Check Engine Light may illuminate because a component of the oxygen sensor stops working. As a result the engine computer is unable to determine the proper ratio of air to fuel for the engine. Replacing the failed oxygen sensor should correct this concern.
Cars equipped with an automatic transmission might experience a hesitation when accelerating. Revised software for the on board computer is available which may correct this problem. Software revisions are commonly most helpful on newer vehicles. once the mileage builds up a worn component could cause similar problems. Whenever major transmission work in performed, the transmission software should be updated as necessary.
The power steering pump and power steering hoses tend to develop leaks, particularly in the V6 models.
As the size of the Camry vehicle gets ever larger, there is a tendency to warp the front rotors. This will be felt as a shudder in the steering wheel when braking. The front rotors can be remachined, if there is sufficient material left, otherwise the front rotors will need to be replaced. It is recommended to use factory quality rotors because cheap quality rotors warp very easily and tend to squeak and squeal.

First of all, I'm glad to see korean forum in PLEX.
I have a couple of suggestion for korean as well as other unicode language users.
First, supporting smi subtitle is crucial for korean users, since every single subtitles in korea are smi format.
However, the PLEX as well as XBMC practically don't have a support for smi format, because smi parser does not work properly.
This bug has been reported already in http://forums.plexap...p?showtopic=294 and has not been fixed yet.
There is a patch in XBMC trac which allow basic support for smi subtitle.
It has not been apply to XBMC svn yet. Please consider apply this patch to PLEX.
If there is any problem with this patch, please let me know. I have a personal contact with mrhjkim who submit the patch.
If it is preferable, I will ask him to submit the patch in here separately.
Second, I made and submitted a scraper for naver in XBMC trac. naver scraper is a korean movie db scraper. it is now in XBMC svn.
Please pull the scraper to PLEX.
Again, if it is preferable, I will submit the scraper in here.
Third, many unicode language users having difficulties mainly due to font.
As I posted in XBMC forum, I'd like to similar suggestion for PLEX.
Since PLEX already support system fonts for skins, it' OK.
Additionally, If PLEX can support later two suggestion, it will be great for korean and other unicode language users.
In short, please, add an option for overriding font.xml in the skin and automatically set language according to system's primary language.
@ elan, I appreciate your help on a unicode file problem, now it works great.
Best, Youngcho

Madison - In his 28th season as Wisconsin's men's track and field coach, Ed Nuttycombe has seen memorable performances and dramatic finishes.
What he witnessed Sunday afternoon at the McClimon Track and Soccer Complex, on the final day of the 2012 Big Ten outdoor meet, might turn out to be No. 1 on his list of memories.
"That was an amazing meet, an amazing finish," he told UWbadgers.com after watching UW score 25 points in the last two events to overtake Nebraska and win the team title by 5½ points over the Cornhuskers. "We're just thankful, but I think we earned it."
UW won its 25th Big Ten title under Nuttycombe - 13 outdoor and 12 indoor - but the first outdoor title since 2007.
UW finished with 121 points, followed by Nebraska (115 1/2) and Indiana (115).
Ohio State won the women's title with 117 points. UW finished fifth with 78 points
The Badgers trailed Nebraska by 18½ points heading into the 5,000-meter run, the next-to-last men's event.
Led by junior Mohammed Ahmed's meet-record time of 13 minutes 41.06 seconds, UW finished first, fifth and sixth in the 5,000, good for 17 points.
Elliot Krause took fifth (13:54.86), and Maverick Darling was sixth (13:58.92).
Those performances allowed UW to pull to within 1½ points of the Cornhuskers, who did not score in the 5,000.
Then in the final event, the 1,600 relay, the team of freshman Garret Payne, senior Brady Hammon, senior Kyle Jefferson and sophomore Drew Simmons combined for a second-place finish (3:05.27) for eight points.
That was behind Penn State (3:04.78) but well ahead of eighth-place Nebraska (3:11.50).
UW was in fifth place, but Jefferson made a remarkable surge heading into the final turn and emerged in second place. Simmons maintained that position on the anchor leg.
"Where he found that gear in that curve I'll never know," Nuttycombe said of Jefferson.
The last time UW hosted the outdoor meet was in 2002, and the Badgers rallied late to win the team title that year, too.
"Undoubtedly in my book, and I've been here quite a few years, the best meet in Big Ten history," Nuttycombe said of the 2012 event. "And not because we won. But when you look at the quality of the performances across the whole spectrum.
"I also think when the country sits back and they look at what it took to score in this conference, I can't imagine any conference being tougher than this."

To make the fifteen man cutoff for rosters at 5 pm ET on Monday, the Wolves were going to have to cut (or trade someone). Although Chase Budinger's name had surfaced in trade rumors with Indiana and Cleveland, nothing concrete was likely to happen there prior to the deadline, so that essentially left the Wolves to decide between J.J. Barea, Glenn Robinson III and Robbie Hummel. Obviously, solidifying the fifteenth man on the roster is not exactly a major thing, but that it was Barea who was bought out does in fact say something about the direction of the team.

Archives For Dallas Mavericks
After Wednesday night's 117-110 loss to the Denver Nuggets at home, Corey Brewer said, "We've got to get some kind of swag, or energy. I was in Denver last year, and we thought we were the greatest team ever, even when we weren't. We need to get an identity. We don't have an identity yet."
An identity can be hard to come by for any individual, much less an individual player defined largely by the thirty or so minutes he spends playing a game a couple nights a week. Multiply this by the nine or ten guys that get regular minutes on an NBA roster and the struggle for an identity becomes exponentially tougher. It took the Heat — a nearly overwhelming collection of talent — a season and a half to figure out how to define themselves on both the offensive and defensive ends of the court.
For the Wolves, the greatest impediment to self-definition might be how long they've been working towards that identity. Continue Reading…
Here is Rick Adelman on the Wolves' leaden, dispiriting loss to the Mavs:
We just didn't have any energy. We had shot after shot and missed shot after shot. They ran a lot of people in in the first half. I know they were thinking we played last night and the travel. We just wore down…They are willing but we were a step behind and I think it's physical and mental both.
Very little needs to be added to that assessment. There is, of course, the ongoing problem of the Wolves missing almost all of their best players and trotting out a threadbare crew of role players and D-Leaguers. Add to that the fact that they were playing the night after an exhausting loss in Denver, a very late flight and losing an hour of sleep…well it all adds up to some fatigued, uninspired basketball.
Its not that the Wolves were listless or lackadaisical in the first quarter of this game. They were playing hard, conscientiously attempting to execute their offense and make solid rotations on defense. No, the word to use might be "uninspired": the offense was stagnant and uncreative; they were bricking jumpers; they were allowing the Mavericks open looks in the midrange and in transition. It was pretty mediocre.
But that all changed when Ricky Rubio and his aura of great, oceanic positive vibes entered the game. He threaded a one-handed bounce-pass to a cutting J.J. Barea. He dropped a stomach-churning hesitation move on Elton Brand and then calmly dealt the ball behind his back to Derrick Williams in the corner (who missed the wide-open corner three, but thats cool). He denied passing lanes, frantically dug at ballhandlers and fought around screens. In traffic, surrounded by Mavericks, he bounced a pass through his own legs, past an astonished Elton Brand to a diving Greg Stiemsma. The building was stunned, ecstatic, then stunned again.
Here we are — two peas in a pod.
Both the Dallas Mavericks and Minnesota Timberwolves have been survivors through the first two weeks of the NBA season. We both lost our star power forwards for about a month to start the season. They've lost Shawn Marion after a hot start; we've lost Chase Budinger, JJ Barea, and parts of Brandon Roy after our hot start. This leads to the inquiry by some as to whether or not this basketball team or even Minnesota sports in general are cursed. Continue Reading…
We Wolves followers–especially the optimists like me–have become experts in one particular facet of the basketball fan's craft: allowing ourselves to become heartened and encouraged with very little prodding (there's a cynical, dark underside to this too, but that's for another day). Kevin Love is a rebounding colossus? Michael Beasley is averaging 27 points/game over a six game span? Darko looks like a real NBA player? The Wolves almost beat the Spurs?! Let's ignore the fact that the team is 4-13 (make that 4-14) and just, y'know, get excited!
But then there are games like Wednesday's pedestrian 100-86 road loss to the Mavericks. These games remind you of the yawning gulf that separates our Pups from the top teams in the association, of the oceans of experience and talent between the Wolves and basic competitiveness. These pills are especially bitter because they often closely resemble this Dallas game in one particular respect: the Wolves never really seemed particularly awful and the Mavs were never overwhelmingly great (Dirk Nowitzki barely got out of bed), but at no time did you really feel that the Wolves had even a remote chance at winning.
