Ravens place 3 DBs on inactive list for Super Bowl
The Baltimore Ravens have placed cornerbacks Chris Johnson and Asa Jackson on the inactive list for the Super Bowl.
Johnson played in four games this season, starting one, and Jackson was in three games.
The Ravens also put safety Omar Brown and offensive lineman Ramon Harewood on the inactive list for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. Harewood started five games this season.
San Francisco's inactive list was: third quarterback Scott Tolzien, safety Trenton Robinson, running back Jewel Hampton, linebacker Cam Johnson, guard Joe Looney and defensive tackles Ian Williams and Tony Jerod-Eddie.
Baltimore's other inactives were linebacker Adrian Hamilton, receiver Deonte Thompson and defensive tackle Bryan Hall.
Neither team announced a change to its starting lineup.

is my day put to waste?
i worked out very hard today, did 15mins of HIIT and did full arm workouts for about 2-3 hours, plus abs. all on an empty stomach. but i feel like i really messed up my diet. heres what i ate: 2 egg whites with whole wheat toast(2 slices), a 25cent bag of whole grain original sunchips, a 100calorie box of stick pretzels, turkey sandwich on a white roll(only option at my college), and 3 kfc grilled toasted wraps(only option of food, had 4$ and no food at home) which added up to 930 calories, 72 grams of carbs(just the kfc snackers). good day or no?

I have a matrix and am trying to find the normalised eigenvectors of it. I am using the Eigensystem command and am getting a result.
There is a normalize command, but as far as I can see this involves applying it to each vector individually. Is there by any chance an option that anyone has come across so that Mathematica does this automatically?
Many thanks!

Here's a snippet:
After watching the Diablo III gameplay footage, I was really excited. The visuals were fantastic, a lot of small improvements had been added without seeming to get in the way of what makes the series great, and by the end of the video I found myself moving my mouse around the screen as if I was playing. That's sad, but what's even sadder is that I'm not a big-time game journalist so I can't come up with a term like "gamesturbation" to describe the lonely and desparate act while making myself cool and quotable.
Imagine my surprise when I discovered that my positive impressions were irrational and baseless, while most of the internet saw the game for what it truly was: A personal insult to them and a serious threat to all they hold dear. If you find that you've mistakenly become mildly optimistic about the game, read on to find out where I went wrong so you can adjust accordingly.
The article actually manages to delve pretty deeply into the subject that's been making headlines in the recent days. Yes, it's actually serious. Some of you may not agree with the article, but if anything you should check it out for some good laughs, even if it means having a good laugh at yourself.
Thanks for the tip, Vacorsis!

From cinema to Shakespeare, catch up on outdoor activities you might have missed this summer
Another popular option is Stone Late Night Movies. Though this Escondido series is usually reserved for adults only, it closes out its season with a free, all-ages screening of "The Princess Bride" at 8 p.m. Wednesday. For directions and details, see stoneworldbistro.com.
How much does your student know about Puck and Shylock? Get teens ready for English lit by catching a production at the Old Globe's 2013 Shakespeare Festival.
The Balboa Park theater is currently staging "A Midsummer Night's Dream" through Sept. 29; "The Merchant of Venice" through Sept. 28; and the Shakespeare-inspired "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" by Tom Stoppard through Sept. 26.
Tickets are $29 to $97. For showtimes and additional details, call (619) 234-5623 or see theoldglobe.org.
Sure, baseball technically goes way into October. But we're talking about the Padres. And there's something about spending three hours eating peanuts in the sun that just doesn't happen when the routine of homework and soccer practice sets in.
The Padres are home this weekend against the Chicago Cubs and again during the first week of September against the San Francisco Giants and Colorado Rockies. Their final week of home games begins Sept. 20 against the L.A. Dodgers and ends Sept. 26 versus the Arizona Diamondbacks. (The Padres' final game this season is Sept. 29 at San Francisco.)
Even though our hottest days are yet to come, sliding down tubes of water and lounging on a lazy river are quintessential summer experiences. And there are plenty of spots throughout the county ready to provide lasting memories — however awkward those may be.
SeaWorld just opened Aquatica in Chula Vista, and it has child-friendly and teen-approved slides. Admission ranges from $25 to $38, and details are at seaworldparks.com/en/aquatica-sandiego.
Legoland California's water park is great for young kids, thanks to its massive shallow-water area. Tickets are $66 to $93, with details at california.legoland.com.
If you're looking for a mom-and-pop option that won't break the bank, Vista's The Wave water park has slides and pools with admission below $20. Details at thewavewaterpark.com.
These last few weeks of summer are actually the best beachgoing days. The tourists are mostly gone, you won't have to sit in hours-long traffic just to park, and the sunsets get even prettier.
If you have a regular beach spot, take an adventure to one you've never visited.
"We've never actually been to the beach in Oceanside," said Harding. "But I have a vision of packing up the car, bringing snacks and magazines, and just planting there for the whole day. I guess I have to do it soon. Time's running out."

$3.1 million settlement reached for man falsely imprisoned
By Lisa Falkenberg | November 2, 2012 | Updated: November 2, 2012 9:49pm
Photo By Mayra Beltran/Staff
George Rodriguez is broke and lives in a one bedroom home after serving 17 years in prison for a crime he did not commit, according to DNA evidence. (Mayra Beltran / Chronicle )
A Houston man who successfully sued the city of Houston in 2009 after he spent 17 years in prison wrongfully convicted of kidnapping and rape will receive $3.1 million, Mayor Annise Parker announced Friday.
George Rodriguez, who was freed in 2004 after an appeals court ruled he was convicted on faulty scientific evidence, won a $5 million verdict after showing chronic problems at HPD's long-troubled crime lab.
The city appealed the jury's decision, but officials Friday announced a settlement.
"Anyone with any compassion has to offer a heartfelt apology," the mayor said.
Rodriguez's attorney, Barry Scheck of the New York-based Innocence Project, said the case spawned the report that detailed the systemic failures at the Houston Police Department Crime Lab.
"The Rodriguez case was the case that led to the Bromwich report and the cleaning up of the HPD crime lab," Scheck said Thursday. "It's very important to George and his attorneys that nothing like this happen to anyone ever again."
Since being released, he has had trouble finding a job because of another felony conviction and is unable to work steadily because of back problems. He said last year he picks up cans and pays his rent by helping his landlord do handyman work.
Despite being freed in 2004, Rodriguez's requests for exoneration or a pardon were turned away until last year when Harris County District Attorney Pat Lykos declared him "actually innocent."
Rodriguez was sentenced to 60 years in prison in 1987 after he was identified by the victim as one of two men who kidnapped and raped her at a Denver Harbor-area house. He was arrested after the HPD Crime Lab did serological testing and hair comparisons that were later shown to be flawed.
The jury that awarded Rodriguez $5 million found the city showed "deliberate indifference" to ongoing problems at the crime lab.

TETCHY people might calm down if they had more of the neurotransmitter serotonin. Researchers gave 19 healthy volunteers a diet that reduced their serotonin levels and then scanned their brains. They found that communication between the brain's amygdala regions, which process fear, and its restraining prefrontal cortex had broken down. That schism could unleash disproportionately violent reactions to mild threats.
The team discovered the effect by showing the serotonin-poor volunteers pictures of angry, sad or neutral faces as they were having functional MRI brain scans. The volunteers were asked to say whether each image was of a man or a woman, but the real intention was to see how their brains reacted to the threat posed by angry faces.
The scans showed that in all volunteers, the connectivity between the amygdalas and the prefrontal cortex was reduced when they viewed angry faces (Biological Psychiatry, DOI: 10.1016/j.biopsych.2011.07.033). The effect was strongest in those with violent tendencies, as identified in a questionnaire. "It's as if the intervening voice of reason was lost," says Luca Passamonti, head of the team at Italy's Neuroimaging Research Unit in Catanzaro.

Associated Press
Treme creator David Simon's previous credits include The Wire and Generation Kill.
I was looking forward to last night's series premiere of Treme, HBO's take on post-Katrina New Orleans.
I was nervous, too — and apparently for good reason.
To be home and in front of the television for the 9 o'clock showing was a no-brainer. I'm intensely interested in New Orleans, Hurricane Katrina and – given how much I loved Homicide (both the book and TV series) and The Wire – anything David Simon does. Given the cast and the concept, I had high hopes for Treme.
An hour and a half later, the only thing I felt more strongly than boredom was irritation.
The show seemed clichéd and, perhaps in the wake of our own devastating Hurricane Ike, stale. But I really should leave such critiques to the professionals. My beef had to do with two little lines of dialogue.
In the first, as musicians gather for a jazz funeral, one character explains how the deceased had been shot in "one of those Telephone Road bars."
It's not exactly the most flattering Houston reference, and I don't recall any real evacuees losing their lives there. But the line seemed a harmless throwaway and, possibly, a nod to the Steve Earle song about the stretch of "50 car lots and a hundred honky-tonks." (Earle had a recurring role in The Wire, and I remember at least one line in that show that had been lifted from an Earle song.)
More frustrating was an exchange featured in the previews for episode 2. When someone asks if a particular neighborhood is safe, the show's most annoying character replies, "It's never been safer. All the crime moved to Houston."
That's the only recognition Treme could muster for a city that took in perhaps 240,000 storm victims, many of whom arrived in buses with nothing but the clothes they were wearing?
Our area, according to my recollection, played a pivotal and overwhelmingly positive role in the Katrina story. Who couldn't have been impressed by the masses of volunteers who showed up at the Astrodome to feed and shelter the evacuees? Houstonians swamped clothing and furniture drives with so much that donations had to be halted.
Rightly or wrongly — and recent studies suggest wrongly – a lot of folks here wouldn't disagree that Katrina triggered a crime wave. Police say that in 2006, 74 of 377 recorded homicides involved evacuees. Despite the fact that researchers found no evidence of an overall increase in the crime rate after the storm, that spike in murders is indelible in the minds of many.
But to reduce Houston to a one-liner because of it is as distressing as it is unsurprising. Even Spike Lee – a filmmaker I've always respected and admired – was stingy in giving credit to Houston in When The Levees Broke, his otherwise excellent documentary on the storm. In one of the film's few references to Houston, a talking head spoke only of the concerns over Katrina-related crime and sneered that our city certainly was no stranger to illegal activity.
We should expect better than this from HBO. Or do I suffer from the same needy inferiority complex I'm told afflicts my hometown? All I know for sure is that Houstonians can be proud of the role they played in the Katrina disaster and secure in the knowledge that, should the need ever arise, we would do it all over again.

Nice to hear your good news that your friends son (a Brummie) will be on parade at the Whitehouse. Well done to him. Bruce, When I clicked on to the site I came on all the blank space, I first wondered if our Jim had been having a go and lost all his message again. Not sure what has gone on. Not to worry. Pam, Glad you had a good time with your grandies. We had ours up this afternoon and Emma the younger one was having a good look to see if she could find her Christmas pressies, but Nan had put them well out of her reach. Emma reminds me of our Jan with her trying to find the pressies that Rick has got for her. Jan and Rick hurry up and sort your server out as we cant have you two missing all this time. Jim. I liked the verse, where do you get them all from. Now before I forget Did you ever come on a Captain in the navy called Dennis Bellman ? He was a true Brummie. Dee where are you ??? You must have done all your shopping by now LOL. Are you still off the CIGS ??? All for now so take care. Tat Tar June.

Hi Everyone, (Too many to remember your names) It's That Man Again! Things To Be Thankful For. The mess to clean after a party... because it means I have been surrounded by friends. The Taxes I Pay... because it means that I'm employed. The Clothes That Fit A Little Too Snug... because it means I have enough to eat. My ShadowWho Watches Me Work... because it means I'm out in the sunshine. A Lawn That Needs Mowing, Windows that Need Cleaning And Gutters That need Fixing... because it means I have A Home. The Space I Find At The Far End Of The Carpark... because it means I am capable of walking. My Heating Bill... because it means I am warm. The Piles Of Laundry And Ironing... because it means I have clothes to wear. The Alarm That Goes Off In The Morning... because it means that I'm alive. Reading This Message That Takes Time... because it came from friends who I know are thinking of me. I can't claim to have written the above, I'm afraid it's another one from Anonymus. (Probably a Brummie!) Talk to you more t'morra. At the moment I am having visions of Margaret - little legs bowed at the weight of that carpet she keeps bowling - she says it aint like tossing the cabre, but how else would you bowl a carpet ;-0oooooooooooah} Tarrarabit - John.
|20 Dec 2004 01:25
Oh John Its so good to have you back, please stay a while, no more mountain climbing for a while. Jim will be so happy to have your humour added to his. June, you are so good at remembering everyones stories. Yes we had a great afternoon, turned it into a little Christmas Party,I picked up a couple of local ladies, they enjoyed the bowling and the food etc, one of the ladies is almost blind, the other is still recovering from a broken hip, they are both 84 years old, but still know how to enjoy life, they sure make me think If we have our health I think we are rich indeed, just as your verse said John. Still raining, tried to snow but didnt last long and back to rain again, so keep up the good work Jim. All for now. talk to you all tomorrow, ( guess you are already there, its 6-30pm here so 1-30am in UK.) Bye Marg.

Hello everyone ! Still no sign of our new internet link at home but we're hopeful it will be working before xmas. To make matters worse my work link has been down all day so I've had to borrow someone else's PC to get on :-((((((( Welcome to Bruce and John it's nice to see you back on here. Faith - thank you for the snow - it arrived on saturday night and there was rather a lot of it. I noticed it just as we were going to bed and had to wake Jan up to show her - she was sooooooo excited lol. We went into the back garden in dressing gowns and slippers for a closer look. The cat sat on the doorstep refusing to come out and looking at us like we were mad. As if !! Rick.xx

Hi Jim --- join The Unhappiness Club. The trouble with Genes is it has tired software that is user unfriendly, quirky, and in some aspects downright wrong. Its proprietors have never seen what other operators do. They are in an ivory castle and whilst isolated, the world is passing them by. For an example of message boards par excellence they should visit http://bbs.adslguide.org.uk/ or Microsoft's own chat rooms. Even the dreaded censored do it better. On checking this back later, before re-editiing, it auto-deleted censored yet again. In fact I now see it auto-deletes y a h o o --- see if that beats its censor. Specifically, it cannot remember your settings e.g. first or last order to display messages. It cannot tell you who is on-line in the chat room, not even how many. It does not comprehend the difference between a toggle to invite switching and a display of a statement of a condition. It cannot keep you signed-in. It cannot enable shortcuts to take you direct to a page. It cannot display new chat on your screen without you continually refreshing or hitting f5 which is a calamity of a kindergarten error on their part. It won't respond to the Back Button in some of its applications so if you try to close ther page, thinking quite reasonably you are in a sub-page, it then closes you down altogether. ADSL can do all of this properly, and run a real-time chatroom as well, telling you who is signed-in. It can do all of this without advertising banners, slogans, popups etc. It can do it on free subscription, not a stunning £7-50 a year --- which only gets you full & adequate access to Genes, not Friends. The reason you cannot find your latest posting, my splendid Brummy pal, is that you might care to select display latest first and then you have to scroll and scroll and scroll past the Pamela sea of white. I have been to general chat to discover I am the only one in it. If you go to any halfway decently constructed chatroom you will KNOW this because the who-is-here pane SHOWS you. The worse the chat room, the more the visitors give up, the smaller the number visiting, a deadly downward spiral. I am afraid I feel I too am in it. I hate Y a h o o but it is at least free and anybody can set up a site, maybe even one for "Unhappy from the Black Country" let alone "Disgruntled of Tunbridge Wells" --- Bruce +++

Hi. It's That Man Again! Thank you June, Margaret and Faith, for your very warm welcome back. I feel most honoured ;-))))} I am very glad that I am not so conversant with technology as you seem to be Bruce, I might also be sad. You said recently that you served your National Service in the RAF, that means that you were in when they were "needing 'em, not feeding 'em" I had to do three years to get in, then it was only to service and install guns, polish B29's so that they could be returned to the Yanks in the condition they arrived in. Oh, and fill sandbags to stem the floods at St Mary Magdelen in '54. 8-(} Jim (sorry, Sir James!) The lady you mentioned - the one from Italy - I think her name is Gillian who used to come on the previous thread, the one who didn't last very long. She took umbrage because I said that Ferrari was Smith in English. I hope I didn't frighten her away 8-(} Been talking a lot lately on the BC board, about Pickelets, Sweetbreads, Black Pudding and Chittlings, and Pigs Trotters Gray Paes and Faggots - god my mouth's waterin! Anybody know where in Aston Cheepside is? No talk lately about broomsticks, I bet it's bad flying weather. Shortest day of the year today, and the first day of winter, not long now to the lighter nights. Jim (sorry, Sir James) have you tried entering GR through your history on "e"xplorer? That's the way I sometimes go when the board's playing silly buggers ;-)))))} Tarrarabit - John.
|21 Dec 2004 11:07
Good Morning All you nice people. John I had to smile re the Chittlings and the Pigs Trotters, I was not into them at all. But my mom loved them. Re the Black Pudding, I have never called it that I only know it as PIGS PUDDING. did any one else call it that ????? Marge Glad the party went well and the 2 ladies at the age of 84 having a good time.. Some of the older ones can give the youngters a good run for there money. Bruce Sorry dear you lost me with your last mail, with all your high technology I must be thick laughter. Jim I hope you sort your self out and please dont get bashing your computer. Off now to see if our Brenda is on MSN. Take care all. Tat Tar June. xxx
|21 Dec 2004 14:08
Here's hoping!! Thank you all for your ideas and help. Bruce your comments are way above my knowledge of the Modem world, could be the fact that at my age(81), my brain is getting worn out. I am at the stage where I don't know the difference between url and green cheese. So in case of further troubles I will take the opportunity to wish all my friends and their families A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR (HIC)!! From teetotaller Jim and His Sober Wife Mary C. LLLOL. Fingers crossed does it work.
|21 Dec 2004 21:29
Hi There everyone, sun is shining and allsright with the world. Sorry Bruce you also lost me on the technical jargon, good job someone knows how all this works, I just know how to turn this thing on and off and find a few websites. John all those specialty??? foods , my Mom, Dad and older Brother all loved that food, I just inherited the high Cholestral it causes, and yes June we always called it Pigs Pudding. cant get any of that stuff in Canada, my Son In Law Kevin from Pelsall is over in England right now and am sure he is just pigging out on everything right now. talked to them on the webcam this morning, said it was sunny and mild in Telford,off to Pelsall for a couple of days in the morning, my three little Grandsons are really enjoying the trip, been to Buckingham Palace and the Tower of London, while they are in Telford they are near the Iron Bridge so am sure they will get another history lesson there. They are also going to a Pantomine, never see those here either so I am sure they will be fasinated with that. Well off to have a pedicure, make my feet look good for Santa if he calls and sneaks a peak. well bye for now Marg.
|21 Dec 2004 23:32
Hiya! It's That Man Again! Yes June, it was and still is Black Pudding to me, (but then I'm thick, being born so near to the Black Country!) ;-))))} Had a very nice but sad email from Gillian, to reassure me that I didn't frighten her off as her maiden name is Smith. First day of winter was just like spring - except it was damned cold. The sunlight coming through the front window, beautiful bright shafts of sunlight picked out in the blue haze caused by my burning full English 8-(((} Margaret, any chance of a piccy of those pedicured feet? lol (which gives me an idea! If I hang a pair of nice shear nylon tights up, on xmas eve, I wonder if there will be a nice lady (well, she doesn't have to be nice really, as long as she has the body of an Angel and the mind of a Marine)lol, filling them when I wake - WOW, that WOULD make a Christmas to remember!) Which brings back more memories, early in my married life, we bought a Goblin Teasmade, so that when we awoke in the mornings, there was a steaming hot cup of tea waiting. ;-)))))} The body's gone, but the memories linger on! Mommy Longlegs is noticeably absent! I wonder if Jim frightened her of when he asked how she got her monika? Jim (sorry, Sir James) did you ever hear the saying "Chickady Snitch"? I used to know an ex-Naval Officer and it was his favourite farewell. ;-)))))} Tarrarabit - John.

Tis I Tis ME. what a day this is rain, rain and more rain. we had a duck come in the garden and was sheltering under a bush. Poor thing I took my umbrella out for him, he will look good on the table on boxing day YUM YUM. John I am with you Black puddings is right. When we lived in Blackburn Lancs there was a stall in the market selling Hot Puds. They were boiled and you ate them with vinegar, delicious, and they warmed you up on a cold winters dayYUM YUM again. Sorry never came across Chickady Snitch during my navy days. John Mills is at this moment in time singing a cleaned up version of the Tattooed Lady, I remember the naval version, not for our ladies delicate ears!!! June Funny you should mention brains on toast. My late Granddad always had a special cup in which my Grandma cooked his Sheeps brains in. In the kitchen of the house they lived in was a fire range with hob and oven and always in the oven there was this cup. He introduced me to brains on toast when I was quite young and I have liked them ever since, but Mary thinks it is terrible, so I have not had any for a long time. Probably there is an EU regulation against selling them now. Another thing my GD had was an onion boiled in milk. He swore it was the best cure for a cold. Has anbody tried soft herrings row on toast? Grilled lightly under the grill a delight for tea. YUM YUM What a yummy read this all is puts Xmas fare to shame. Can any one else come up with food from the past that they enjoyed? Could be funny. Back to black puds Mary has just told me she had never had a fried pud til she came to live in Brum. They always ate them boiled. Hoping this gets thro Ok I will have to close now. Hope to get back on to-morrow. LLOL for now Hungery Jim and Slimming Mary C.

Hi our Jim. Just had a smile re your message. When we lived in Vicarage Rd we had a black grate. The fire. was in the middle and an oven each side. My mom would put her herrings into a dish and pop them in the oven for my dads supper. I would clear off as I did not like the smell. Now you leave that duck alone. That brings back some thing that happened to me when I was about 8 years old. My dad got hold of 4 hens and me being me I looked on them as pets gave them all a name and loved them to bits. They did not tell me that they would end up on the Christmas table. I was out when the deed was done. Then on Christmas day there was Bandy Legs on a plate. I just took one look and fled up stairs in tears. No way was I going to eat her and I have never eaton a bird of any kind since that terrible day. A friend of mine in Wigston used to have a pet Goose and she would take it for a walk with a collar and lead on it. It was an odd sight, but every one round here got so used to seeing them together they did not take any notice after a while. All for now. Tat Tar June.

Hi Everyone, June your tale of the Chickens and the stoves reminded me of a couple of things, when I was a kid my Dad came home from a football game with some baby chicks he had bought somewhere , they where really small so to keep them warm my Mom put them in the oven in a box next to the fire, left the door open, but one of us kids thought we would keep them warmer and shut the door, after a while Mom noticed the shut door, poor little Chicks where cooked. the other story was neighbours we had when my kids where ltlle had chickens, but their Mom always kept a wrapper from Safeway for a chicken, so when a chicken showed up on the table and the kids asked if it was one of theirs, she would show them the wrapper and say I bought it at Safeway see. My Oldest son one day, told me he thought their Mom was telling them fibbs , because they didnt have as many chickens in the pen anymore. Guess you can fool them for a while. Well John as for getting your stocking filled with a cutie keep dreaming, you never know what Santa will bring. Jim, think I agree with Mary, its the smell of all these foods that puts me off. Well Bye for now Marg.
|22 Dec 2004 22:02
Hi Marge, Poor little chicks, going back to the oven. I remember my dad telling me a story from when he was a young boy. It was a Sunday and he was in his Sunday best and he had on his new boots. Some of his mates where larking about coming home from Sunday school and they came by the cut (Remember Marge the one that ran under Rockey Lane) ? Well they pushed him in so you can see he was wet wet. He got home and his mom was out so he put his boots in the oven to dry. He forgot them and next morning his mom found them all curled up toe touching the heel. So he had a right good clout round the ears. All for now Tat Tar June

Hiya All, It's That Man Again! To she who is small (but beautifully marked), thanks for the email. Oooooooo YES, I remember my old gran always feeding us with brain and egg sandwiches. I think the brain was boiled, the eggs were boiled hard, then the two were mashed together to make a spread, we used to love it because it not only tasted nice - it eked out the rations. 8-)))} I went to the Nursing Home (where Margaret lived out her last years) party last Friday, and I was particularly taken by how beautiful the ham cobs were. I complimented the chef with the remark that they were definitly not spread with margarine, as no marg' could taste so good! She replied that "some months ago they had started to use only best butter, as it is too late in the old folks lives to worry about Cholesterol" Now that's what I call progress! With forward thinking like that, I wouldn't mind finishing my days there. There was recently a mention on TV about an anti-inflammatory drug that the Americans think might cause heart attacks. The drug by name is "Celebrex" which I have been taking for some years now. I think it's great as I take just one capsule a day, with other drugs like "Ibuprofen or Volterol" I was always having to take "Zantac" to control the heartburn that the other tablet caused :-Oooooooo} Sorry folks for getting serious. Tonight I had home cooked fish and chips (from the freezer) with mooshie paes - it was yummy ;-))))} I keep fancying pickled herrings (for them with money "Roll Mops") I wonder if I could be pregnant????? Margaret, what colour (color) nail varnish did you use, after your pedicure? Tarrarabit - John.
|23 Dec 2004 02:34
Me again, June Thank you for the Lovely e Card, what a lovely verse. I began to think we may be sisters when you started telling the story about your Dad in the cut, it sounded just like one My Dad used to tell us, he was playing with his older brothers by the canal in Nechals area, they pushed him in, they got him home and Mom was out so they dried him and his clothes off, thought their Mom would never know, and threatened dad not to say anything, well of course clothes then needed ironing, not like the wash and wear of today, as soon as his Mom walked in she wanted to know what water he had been in, well of course all the brothers finished up with a clip around the earhole and sent to bed early. Dee great to see you back, we missed you. Now John if I tell you my nails are bright red with silver dots,will your heart beat to fast, well I will tell you truth I had a nice Lilac colour ( I still spell the English way) so settle down . Its 7-30pm so off to watch a little T.V. bye for now Marg.

Former Brazil football team manager Luiz Felipe Scolari has been named as the new coach of Brazilian top-flight team Gremio.
Scolari resigned as national boss earlier this month after he failed to guide the World Cup 2014 hosts to the finals, as they finished fourth in the tournament, The BBC reported.
Under Scolari's reign Brazil lost 7-1 to Germany in the semi-finals before Netherlands beat them 3-0 in the third-place play-off.
The former Chelsea boss, who was replaced as Brazil coach by Dunga, has managed Gremio twice before and led them to Brazilian championship in 1995, the report added.

DGL (Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice) 100 Chewable Tablets from Planetary Herbals may assist in maintaining a healthy digestive system by supporting a strong stomach and intestinal lining.
Licorice is widely used as a flavoring agent worldwide. It is believed that the root of licorice is rich in herbal value and used in conditions of digestive disorders.
The chewable tablet edition from Planetary Herbals is formulated with DGL – deglycyrrhizinated Licorice. So what does it mean? It refers to the licorice root extract that has the substance glycyrrhizin removed. It is believed that this biochemical and its acidic version - glycyrrhetinic acids may suppress the metabolism of cortisol in the kidney. DGL may help in the production of mucin. Mucin is the protective lining coat present in the stomach and intestines.
Licorice root is believed to be effective for gastro-intestinal health. Apart from this' some people also say that the root extract may help with eczema' heartburns' fatigue syndrome' and sore throats. It is also said that the root extract may help in regulating the functioning of the adrenal glands. The adrenal glands are responsible for hormone secretions and regulating them ensures that the body maintains its hormone balance.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
This charming adobe home is an exceptional local treat, surrounded almost entirely by wilderness. Located on the edge of the village of Dixon, an artist community, ours is the last house on the arroyo, surrounded on three sides by public lands. Experience exceptional quiet and privacy with wilderness walks just a step out the door.
Viga ceilings, southwestern decor, and works by local artists adorn this getaway fully equipped with all the luxuries of home and access to nature as if you were camping. Cozy beds sleep up to six with the optional inflatable queen mattress. Enjoy complete comfort nestled within northern New Mexico's extraordinary golden hills dotted with pinon and juniper forests.
We are 22 miles south of Taos, 45 miles north of Santa Fe.
We were renters ourselves for a few years in a row -- our friends Jonathan and Carolyn ran the vacation rental and we'd said back then, if you ever want to sell... Sure enough, when they were ready we were their first call, and we bought the property immediately.
Nora Dvosin & Jeffrey Karoff purchased this house in 1999
This might be the most ideal property in Dixon. We are at the end of the road, with only wilderness beyond us. So we have this vast, protected, BLM natural preserve as our side and backyards. You can see our neighbors down the road about 100 yards, but that's about it. Otherwise, it's untouched.
We love going there ourselves - we are in Dixon 3-4 times a year. Somehow, we never tire of the intoxicating landscape, the air, the quiet, the extraordinary New Mexican skies, and the light. The hammock under the ramada is one of the most magical spots. The ramada's pillars provide framed views of the landscape that remind us of Maxfield Parrish's idyllic worlds.
My wife and I have stayed at this Adobe twice. We always pine to go back because of it's originality and the fact that it is so private and quiet. The interior is perfect for those who want to relax and get away from technology.
The patio outside the bedroom is perfect for morning coffee or reading poetry while enjoying and evening glass of wine from the local winery.
The patio area is perfect for cooking out and chilling out.
This place in not for everybody. You have to "get" the vibe this adobe puts out to really appreciate the location.
Visited in Oct 1996 and I think April of 1999
We stayed for a week and wished it had been at least two. Yes, we appreciated the easy access to places like Abiquiu and Taos, as well as the nearby wineries, but the most memorable aspects of the house are its calm, isolated feel and the access right outside the door to hours of exploring up the arroyos and along the ridges. The owners were a pleasure to work with. We're already dreaming of a return visit.
We're compelled to express our immense enthusiasm for this treasure of a home in
Dixon. It is a pure delight. The quiet, the sweetness, the beauty and simple elegance are exquisite. Every potted plant is a work of art to feast our eyes on. The protected land that surrounds it is so dream-like. We took endless walks, passing an entire range of hills, only to meet yet another pristine range ahead. If you're looking to be inspired and to disconnect from the craziness of life…look no further.
We just returned from a short stay at this property, and had a blast. I would describe the house as a bit quirky (in a good way) and very different from your typical rental property. Nice (and comfy) furniture and art all over the place, but solid enough to have little kids around. We felt very much at home. The fireplace makes it very cozy when its cold outside and messing with real fires always makes me a happy man :-).
Kitchen is equipped nicely, and the place was very clean. We were with 2 adults and 3 kids, and that worked out fine. In our case the very steep stairs to the "tower bedroom" acted as a magnet to our 1-yr old, so that can be a bit tricky. I'd say the whole place shows the owners have excellent taste (I realize that's very subjective, it works for us anyway, and we are from the Netherlands for what its worth).
The patio's around the house all look magnificent and the direct access to NM solitude and wilderness is spectacular for a bit older kids (and myself). For the 1-yr old this was all a bit too rough, and our 4-yr old girl also was challenged climbing the surrounding hills, but our 6-yr old son and myself made some very nice and spectacular mini hikes over the ridges starting behind the house. He definitely did not want to leave.
Skiing in Taos and visiting Santa Fe is each about over an hour's drive.
Furthermore I can confirm all earlier reviews are accurate and that the owner and caretaker are very friendly and easy to work with.
We love coming back to Adobe Home at the Edge of the Wilderness over and over again. It has perfect location, vibe, and amenities. We are already planning our next visit. Thank you Nora and Jeff.
We keep coming back to Northern NM. There's no place like it in the States. If you're planning a trip to the area, take time to stay and be prepared to chill. The adobe met all our expectations for peace, solitude and comfort. The owners were a pleasure as well as their local POC. Kitchen, pantry, bathroom and utility room are well stocked and everything works as it should. You'll enjoy three outdoor living spaces and all are very private. The dark skies are a treat, especially with a nice telescope.....courtesy of the owner. I've been visiting this area since the late 60's and highly recommend Dixon and the Adobe a thte end of the road. Cheers......

JEROME -- Experts say the war on drugs here in Idaho is always changing; what drugs are being used, how they're being used, and how they're getting into the state.
Those on the front lines say it means that they always have to stay on the forefront of technology and tactics to fight drugs in Idaho. However, one of their best tools is also one of the oldest.
Idaho is seeing a lot more of it, more of it in our small towns, more of it in our big cities and especially a lot more of it on our roads. Its drug trafficking.
It's a problem that affects all parts of the state, said Wendy Olson.
Olson is the U.S. Attorney for the District of Idaho. She prosecutes, not small-time dealers, but drug traffickers, people who are part of huge criminal organizations, called cartels, and she's been very busy. Over the last three years, there have been, into the first month of this year, close to 300 defendants sentenced in federal court on methamphetamine trafficking charges alone.
That's a significant increase, and the latest data from Idaho State Police shows the number of arrests where drugs are seized are way up. ISP also says the amount of marijuana alone they've seized, has tripled over five years.
Methamphetamine, in particular, destroys lives. It creates all sorts of problems for families, says Olson.
She also says there's been a spike in meth trafficking, partly because newer laws have made it tougher to cook at home. What's replaced that is methamphetamine trafficking from Mexico. A lot of that is tied eventually to drug cartels.
Also, as neighboring states relax marijuana laws, it can now be grown legally out of state, and driven in to Idaho, where it fetches a higher price. That means Idaho's highways are some of the front lines for Idaho's war on drugs, and ISP Senior Trooper Steve Otto is one of those people on the front lines.
We caught up with Otto in his car in a median on Interstate 84, looking for cars that might be trafficking drugs. It can be any car. It's just like fishing, it's me versus them, and I like to win.
However, he's not alone. Besides his fellow officers and undercover agents working in the dark corners of Idaho's drug underworld, he also has one of the most sophisticated and effective pieces of drug-finding equipment available, his drug dog, Bingo.
I love him to death. He's with me 24/7. He comes home with me, says Otto. He's definitely not a pet. In fact, my own family doesn't pet Bingo. The only joy he gets is from finding that odor of drugs.
And, he's great at that. At a demonstration, Otto hid some marijuana on a car, and Bingo was able to find it within seconds.
But, it's not just marijuana. Thanks to months of intensive training with Otto and continued weekly training, where drug smells are imprinted on Bingo, he can smell any type of drug.
Bingo is so effective; he can even smell when drugs used to be in a vehicle. So, he can also find drug money, like when ISP pulled $185,000 out of a truck's rear differential.
Otto says Bingo is also a deterrent, which means that when traffickers see him, they just hand over the drugs, instead of having him find them.
But right now, the only K-9 unit ISP has for the entire state is Otto and Bingo. They work out of Jerome, but travel all over to help officers detect drugs. That will change soon, though. Otto and Bingo started as a pilot program two years ago, and have been so effective, and with the need to stop trafficking is great, that three new drug dogs are training with three ISP officers right now in Utah, and are scheduled to hit the streets in March.
I can't wait for them to certify, said Otto. It is a high demand tool that we use.
Of course, it would be a lot easier for Bingo, Otto and Olson to stop drug traffickers, if Idahoans would stop buying what they're selling.
It's something we all have to work on as a community to reduce the demand for, said Olson.
However, until that demand goes away, ISP and all the state's law enforcement will have to keep searching and keep working to stop the flow of drugs into Idaho.

The Night Sky In 800 Million Pixels 120
from the it's-stars-all-the-way-down dept.
I thought the same thing. This isn't a particularly impressive resolution for such a large subject. Check out the kind of detail we get of the earth [nasa.gov]: 21600 by 10800 pixels!
my kingodom for a mod point.
I was recently at Yosemite during the Perseid meteor shower, and I got to really look at the Milky Way "scar" for the first time with my own eyes. My parents have a house in rural Texas, but the visibility was nowhere near what it was smack dab in the middle of a wide open Yosemite field at midnight.
You can't get it anywhere except the artist. I set him an email, and he sent a very prompt reply that it's for profesional use only, without actually knowing wether or not I was a professional.
I'm guessing that even though this project, GigaGalaxy Zoom, is done by the ESO, a intergovernmental organization, the image is just under license from the "artist" (in this case, "man with too much time for tedium"), so don't hold your breath about finding it anyway.
I had my own telescope, but my pitiful attempts at seeing anything were thwarted by the vexatious cold and my own incompetence at astronomy [gdargaud.net].
The ideal voice for radio may be defined as showing no substance, no sex, no owner, and a message of importance for every housewife. -- Harry V. Wade

Re: The Trouble With Columbias
Not so good for existing owners, but good for future owners like me (I hope). I'm hoping to stay as close to 10k as possible. I know she won't be perfect at that price, but I'm hoping for a mechanically sound girl that might just look ugly. Ugly I can fix over time. Mechanical I can't sail until it's sound. Anyway, getting offtrack here.
Once we get a better handle on sailing my 25 we'll be looking in that size range, and those prices (even if requiring a little elbow grease) certainly make them more accessible to a regular Joe like me.
Now, Tomperanteau, if you could sit back objectively and make believe you didn't buy the 36, which would you select today?
Now for me, I'm looking for something suitable for both daycruising the fair waters in the Florida Keys, but also capable of living aboard for two weeks while sailing in the Bahamas, potentially in the H-Word season.
Draft is important, but stiffness under sail is important to me as well, because we can have a beautiful calm sunny day here, with a 50 mph squall out of nowhere in the afternoon.
I'm torn between the 34 and the 36, but don't yet know enough about either to speak much about them, other than the yearning (you know what I mean!) when I see one sail past.

ample, they might melt a chocolate bunny and be asked to describe how it has changed. They can also be asked whether they think it is still chocolate, whether it still has the same amount of stuff, whether it has the same weight, and to make arguments about how they can tell.
In the course of these activities, not only will they be learning about how to form meaningful classifications, to carry out simple investigations, and to represent and record data in useful ways, but also they will deepen their understanding of materials. They will learn that not all properties of chunks stay the same when cut into pieces and that there are at least two ways of trying to trace (or track) the identity of different materials over time—by historical continuity (i.e., by following where it came from, or what was done to it, such as grinding) or by consideration of its observable properties.2 Originally, children might be more inclined to use commonsense properties than historical tracing. Historical tracing is important (especially across decompositions, such as grinding into smaller pieces) because it helps build an explicit idea of a material as an underlying constituent. By engaging children with considerations of what happens to materials with decomposition, they come to identify materials not just by their common perceptual features, but as constituents that can maintain their identity (and certain properties) even when they become arbitrarily small. They also begin to realize that not all large-scale properties of materials are preserved during that decomposition (i.e., some emerge when there is enough stuff or under certain conditions).
Another (related) goal identified for this period is to extend children's descriptions beyond commonsense perceptions—especially for important physical magnitudes like weight and volume—by engaging them with the problem of constructing measures for a variety of quantities so that they can develop an explicit theory of measure that underlies the practice of measurement. Measurement is an important scientific practice that contrasts with everyday practice and grows out of concern with having data that can be described in precise objectively reproducible (or verifiable) ways and made amenable to mathematical representation and manipulation. It also greatly aids in finding lawful patterns in data—patterns that would be totally obscured if one relied on commonsense impressions. Yet many aspects of the underlying logic of measurement are not initially obvious to students and can be hidden by simply teaching them how to use preexisting or standard measuring procedures or instruments. Thus, learning to measure should in-
Of course, as chemists can attest, the problem of tracking the identity of materials is complex, and neither of the strategies children use is infallible. In fact, in some situations (chemical reactions), one substance will cease to exist and another come into being. In addition, many of the observable properties that children use are not the most reliable or valid cues to material identity.

George Washington (Greenough)
- For other uses, see George Washington (disambiguation).
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (September 2013)
|Horatio Greenough
|3.5 m × 2.6 m (136 in × 102 in × 82 1/2[1] in)
|Coordinates: 38°53′28″N 77°01′50″W / 38.89111°N 77.03056°W
|Smithsonian Institution
George Washington (1840) is a massive sculpture by Horatio Greenough commissioned for the centennial of U.S President George Washington's birth in February 22, 1732.
Horatio Greenough based "Enthroned Washington" on Phidias' great statue of Zeus Olympios which was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World (and which was destroyed in late Antiquity).[2]
The seated and sandal wearing Washington gazes sternly ahead. He is bare-chested and his right arm and hand gesture with upraised index finger toward heaven. His left palm and forearm cradle a sheathed sword, hilt forward, symbolizing Washington turning over power to the people at the conclusion of the American Revolutionary War.
The rear base of the statue features a Latin inscription, which reads:
The U.S. Congress commissioned Greenough to create a statue of Washington for display in the U.S. Capitol rotunda. When the marble statue arrived in Washington, DC in 1841, however, it immediately generated controversy and criticism. Many found the sight of a half-naked Washington offensive, even comical. The statue was relocated to the east lawn of the Capitol in 1843. Disapproval continued and some joked that Washington was desperately reaching for his clothes,[4] then on exhibit at the Patent Office several blocks to the north. In 1908, the statue was brought back indoors when Congress transferred it to the Smithsonian Castle, where it remained until 1964. It was then moved to the new Museum of History and Technology (now the National Museum of American History). The marble statue has been exhibited on the second floor of the museum since that time.
Popular culture references[edit]
The demigod-like pose of Washington is portrayed in Dan Brown's best-selling novel The Lost Symbol (2009), in which the author describes a hypothesis according to which Washington and the other founding fathers decorated the national capital full of Freemason and other occult symbols. However, the pose was only associated with Freemasonry after the Taxil Hoax, which falsely linked Freemasonry to Satan worship. The Taxil Hoax was perpetrated in the 1890s, while the statue was made in 1840.
The statue appears near the beginning of the 2013 first person shooter, Bioshock Infinite, set in an alternate 1912 where Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson are worshiped by the inhabitants of the floating city of Columbia.

Hi. I just tried sending this message to the email addresses on the Italian Surname list, but most were returned! So thought I'd post the known family info here and see if anyone else might know anything about these families.
I am researching these families for my friend Carol Vivonia, whose grandparents came to the U.S. from Italy around 1899-1900. I have found them in the U.S. censuses from 1910 on. It appears they lived first in Louisiana, as their 3rd and 4th children were born there. They then moved to California, where they lived in the Los Angeles area for many years.
Her grandparents were:
"Joe" VIVONIA [Vivona/Vivionie] [b. 1859/60 Italy]. married in Italy, Mary QUARTARARO [b. 1871/72 Italy] around 1890.
Children, surname VIVONA/VIVIONIE/VIVONIA :
First 2 children b. Italy:
Julia, b. 1891-92
Mary, b. 1893-94. [b. 1895 per CA Death index]
[Family immigrated around 1899-1900]
Children b. Louisiana:
Charles, b. 1903 [per CA Death Index & SSDI]
Kate ["Carrie"] b. 1904-05
Children b. CA:
Lena, b. 1907-08 [twin, b. 1908 per CA Birth/Death Indexes]
Frank [Francisco] [twin] b. 1908, died before 1911-12
Carl ["Carlie" or "Collie"], b. 1909-10 [1910 per CA Birth & Death
Indexes, & SSDI]
[Carl was 7th child; 1910 census said she had 7 children,
all 7 living at the time]
Frank b. 1911-12 [1912 per CA Death Index & SSDI]
Joe b. 1913-14 [1914 per CA Death Index & SSDI]
The only online immigration records for Louisiana I've come across are for later years, 1905-1910, so I haven't found this family in any immigration records. [There were other Quartararo and Vivioni families on the Louisiana index, however.] The U.S. censuses indicate that Joe and his wife were aliens, not naturalized citizens.
The only mention my friend heard about where the family came from was
Sicily. And she's not sure what the original surnames of her grandparents
were, as they appear in various forms in the U.S.: Vivionie, Vivona, Vivonia; and Catarra, Quartara, Quartararo.
Appreciate any input you may have! Thanks,
Kim Danielsen

Peggy Cannistraci, owner of Math Support Services in Santa Clarita, participated in a trip to Asia with her daughter to learn more about their educational system and compare it to the educational system in California.
"My daughter and I were privileged to participate in a cultural and educational exchange to learn more about how Asian countries are helping students to excel in math and science," Peggy said. "Our trip was to Japan; however there are many similarities throughout the Asian cultures. We were also able to observe how the curriculum and instruction differed from ours."
One major difference was the fact that education is not free.
"Parents pay for all of the books, about $400 per month depending on the reputation of the school. Parents' financial responsibilities do not end there," Peggy said.
Don't miss a thing. Get breaking Santa Clarita news alerts delivered right to your inbox.
In addition to regular school, 80% of high school students regularly attended JUKU in Japan and Hagwons in Korea. These for profit schools provide supplementary education that students need just to keep up with the regular school curriculum. They also provide remedial education for the children who fall behind in their work and test prep services for University admissions.
"This 'tutoring' is every day after school for as much as 5 hours a day. The instruction is in small groups and is very costly for the parents," Peggy said. "Parents pay about $500 a month for this additional instruction. Currently only about 10% of American students participate in limited after school instruction."
Asian parents feel that eventual success does not depend on one's intelligence but on characteristics that can be developed. Therefore parents spend a great deal of time and energy and give their children every opportunity to succeed. This includes developing the ability to persevere.
Repeated studies show that the U.S. lagging substantially behind more than half the countries studied, while Asian cultures perform in the top 5%. "Asia is obsessed with education and could not have transformed into the economic powerhouse that it is today without this focus. America's latest response is to implement CORE content standards, which demand more depth and understanding from our students particularly in mathematics," Peggy said.
Do you have a news tip? Call us at (661) 298-1220, or drop us a line at firstname.lastname@example.com.
"To meet these demands teachers will have to make the time to spend on challenging problem- solving tasks. To make time for this there will be less time for review work. Our students will need more support to prepare for upcoming material and review old concepts that have not been mastered."
Just as in the Asian countries, parents who have the means will see the value in providing supplemental instruction after school. Tutoring support will be essential for Americans just as it has been in the past for Asian families.

A few widely scattered showers and thunderstorms have formed over extreme southern Missouri this afternoon. The strongest storms may be capable of pea size hail and some gusty winds. No severe weather is expected though. Any convection will dissipate and move off to the south of Missouri by this evening. A cooler and drier airmass will move in tonight. Dewpoints in the lower to middle 40s across northwest Missouri will move into the Missouri Ozarks by morning. It will be perfect open the windows type weather tonight with lows in the middle 40s across central Missouri to the lower 50s across southern Missouri. A very pleasant day is heading our way for Tuesday with high pressure filtering in and mostly sunny skies. Highs will be below average in the upper 60s to lower 70s. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday Night through Monday) Issued at 233 PM CDT MON MAY 18 2015 The front that will move through this afternoon actually stalls out south of the area and moves back northward by late Tuesday night into Wednesday. A wave of low pressure will develop along the front and travel northeastward. Showers and thunderstorms will become likely late Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. No severe weather is anticipated but will not rule out some small hail possible with elevated instability along with frequent lightning. The models have a little bit of a disagreement on how far north the warm front moves with the NAM12 a little more aggressive than the GFS and ECMWF. Most models have the front stopping at the Missouri and Arkansas state line. The NAM12 has it a little more northward with some instability developing over the far southwestern corner of the area. Will watch trends to see if the surface front makes more of a northward jog and if the instability can make it into southern Missouri. Right now SPC has the marginal severe weather risk just coming up to our southern border for a risk of marginal severe hail and marginal damaging wind gusts for Wednesday afternoon and evening. Average rainfall for the mid week system will be about half an inch over the eastern Ozarks to up to an inch over the western half of the area. Otherwise the front works back to the south Wednesday night and Thursday with drier and cooler air moving back in. Another cool day on Thursday and Friday. By the weekend...almost the same type of weather pattern from last weekend sets up again for this upcoming weekend. A large broad upper level trough develops over the southwestern and western U.S. with several shortwaves and upper level impulse moving out across the southern and central Plains region into the Midwest region. Several rounds of showers and thunderstorms are expected for the upcoming Memorial Day Weekend. Heavy rainfall will be possible this weekend with 1 to 3 inches on average will be possible. The heaviest rainfall will be across the southwestern areas. Will have to monitor trends for possible hydro concerns. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Tuesday Night) Issued at 1155 PM CDT MON MAY 18 2015 VFR conditions will continue through Tuesday evening with increasing high clouds.

Gina Hulse likes to challenge her students at Holy Trinity Episcopal Academy.
Her most recent assignment for her ninth- and 10th-grade sculpture class: work in teams to craft five African animal sculptures (a giraffe, rhinoceros, crocodile, elephant and flamingo) that will serve as game boards for what historians believe may be the world's oldest game, mancala.
The sculptures were constructed out of toilet paper tubes, then padded with papier mache plaster and painted. Egg cartons were incorporated into the top of each animal to provide spaces for the rocks or beads used as game pieces. ...
