Dead or Alive (Jack Ryan Jr. #2)by Tom Clancy Grant Blackwood
Tom Clancy returns with a #1 New York Times bestseller that will remind readers why he is the acknowledged master of international intrigue and nonstop military action.<P> It is The Campus. Secretly created under the administration of President Jack Ryan, its sole purpose is to eliminate terrorists and those who protect them. Officially, it has no connection to the American government--a necessity in a time when those in power consider themselves above such arcane ideals as loyalty, justice, and right or wrong. <P> Now covert intelligence expert Jack Ryan Jr. and his compatriots at The Campus--joined by black ops warriors John Clark and "Ding" Chavez--have come up against their greatest foe: a sadistic killer known as the Emir. Mastermind of countless horrific attacks, the Emir has eluded capture by every law enforcement agency in the world. But his greatest devastation is yet to be unleashed as he plans a monumental strike at the heart of America. <P> On the trail of the Emir, Jack Ryan Jr. will find himself following in his legendary father's footsteps on a manhunt that will take him and his allies across the globe, into the shadowy arenas of political gamesmanship, and back onto U.S. soil in a race to prevent the possible fall of the West...
The Deadliest Game (Tom Clancy's Net Force Explorers #2)by Tom Clancy Steve Pieczenik Bill Mccay
Here comes a Clancy first: a new series of novels for young adults starring a team of troubleshooting teens--the Net Force Explorers--who know more about cutting edge technology than their teachers!<P> Computer savvy teens, a war game gone awry, and good old-fashioned intrigue are the elements of The Deadliest Game, a high-octane episode in Tom Clancy's wildly popular teen series Net Force. Clancy and co-author Steve Pieczenik envision a futuristic society where people enliven their dull lives with intense virtual experiences. One of the most favored of these virtual realities is a medieval war game called Sarxos. Players leave their physical bodies at home while an implant in their head carries them through their computer to the virtual Dominion of Sarxos, a land where they may be anyone-- from a reigning warlord to a practicing hedge-wizard. But when players who are winning too many battles in Sarxos start getting stalked and attacked in the real world, it becomes clear that one player has begun taking the game far too seriously.<P> Enter teen cyber-sleuths Meg and Leif, experienced Sarxos players. As members of the Net Force Explorers, a teen auxiliary of the cyber-crime-stopping Net Force, Meg and Leif start questioning characters in the alternate reality. Even when their boss instructs them to stop, they stay hot on the trail of the online Sarxian player who is "bouncing" any threatening opponent out of the game. But time is running out in the search for the online criminal, and Meg and Leif may find themselves the next bouncees!<P> In Net Force, Tom Clancy has created a cyber-thrilling series that will transition into the next millennium with ease. The breathless action and abrupt plot transitions between the real world and virtual reality will fascinate teen computer fiends and young video gamers alike.

Debt of Honor (Jack Ryan #6)by Tom Clancy
Razio Yamata is one of Japan's most influential industrialists, and part of a relatively small group of authority who wield tremendous authority in the Pacific Rim's economic powerhouse.<P> He has devised a plan to cripple the American greatness, humble the US military, and elevate Japan to a position of dominance on the world stage.<P> Yamata's motivation lies in his desire to pay off a Debt of Honor to his parents and to the country he feels is responsible for their deaths--America. All he needs is a catalyst to set his plan in motion. <P> When the faulty gas tank on one Tennessee family's car leads to their fiery death, an opportunistic U. S. congressman uses the occasion to rush a new trade law through the system. The law is designed to squeeze Japan economically. Instead, it provides Yamata with the leverage he needs to put his plan into action.<P> As Yamata's plan begins to unfold, it becomes clear to the world that someone is launching a fully-integrated operation against the United States. There's only one man to find out who the culprit is--Jack Ryan, the new President's National Security Advisor.
Deuda de honor (Jack Ryan #6)by Tom Clancy

Y cuando uno de estos nuevos enemigos se prepara para atacar el centro de la economía mundial, Ryan, con la ayuda de los oficiales de la CIA John Clark y Domingo Chávez, acepta el desafío. Porque una deuda de honor debe ser pagada, y el precio será muy alto.

Executive Ordersby Tom Clancy
The President is dead--and the weight, literally, of the world falls on Jack Ryan's shoulders, in Tom Clancy's newest and most extraordinary novel.I don't know what to do. Where's the manual, the training course, for this job? Whom do I ask? Where do I go?Debt of Honor ended with Tom Clancy's most shocking conclusion ever; a joint session of Congress destroyed, the President dead, most of the Cabinet and the Congress dead, the Supreme Court and the Joint Chiefs likewise. Dazed and confused, the man who only minutes before had been confirmed as the new Vice-President of the United States is told that he is now President.President John Patrick Ryan.And that is where Executive Orders begins. Ryan had agreed to accept the vice-presidency only as a caretaker for a year, and now, suddenly an incalculable weight has fallen on his shoulders. How do you run a government without a government? Where do you even begin? With stunning force, Ryan's responsibilities crush on him.

Filled with the exceptional realism and intricate plotting that are his hallmarks, it attests to the words of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch: "This man can tell a story."tell a story."

I really like the food but was not fond of the way they give you drinks in a Styrofoam cup instead of a can. The delivery guy argued with me saying I have to let them know if I want it a can, now how ridiculous is that! Not too mention the soda tasted flat no fizz at all!

I hate writing bad reviews but these were literally the worst french fries I've ever hard in my life, which is weird because I'm pretty sure you just fry them? It was as if they gave me the fries that had been sitting in the oil overnight and then let them sit out for a couple hours then gave them to me. The salad I ordered was really mediocre and my boyfriend got a burger that he said was okay.

Great food in hipster central. I had a hard time finding parking, but it was all worth it. The chicken gyro was extremely juicy and well flavored. The hummus is really delicious. The staff was really nice even though they were busy. I will be back, but just wish parking was easier here.

This place is great. It's the little restaurant next to the Los Feliz 3. I ordered the lamb gyro sandwich and my wife had the falafel and both were terrific. The gyro had nice big chunks of lamb not fatty or gamey at all. They came with a side salad too which was really nice and a good size as well. The people there also seemed really nice. Definately a good choice for Greek/Mediterranean food in the area.

A simple and elegant piece. Very versatile in pairing with other tea brewing items. Recommended more for green, white, and yellow tea brewing because glass tends to get hotter to hold with higher water temperatures and can be difficult when brewing oolong, black, and pu-er teas.
Excellent with a tea filter and glass strainer. 150 ml (5oz.)

Join us for GrowthBeat Summit on June 1-2 in Boston, where we'll discuss how to merge creativity with technology to drive growth. Space is limited. Request your personal invitation here! In its quest to offer a useful cloud service for just about everything, Oracle announced today that it has bought Eloqua, a cloud-based marketing automation firm, for $871 million. Eloqua's technology lets companies easily begin, manage, and analyze marketing campaigns. The company also offers revenue performance management that's intimately tied into its cloud marketing service. Oracle paid $23.50 per share for Eloqua, a 31 percent increase over the company's closing price of $17.92 yesterday. Eloqua's board has already approved the deal, and it's expected to close in the first half of 2013, pending regulatory and shareholder approval. Notably, Eloqua's chief executive Joe Payne had poked Oracle in the eye last year, during our CloudBeat event, when he told VentureBeat executive editor Dylan Tweney on stage: "I wake up every day, and I know I'm adding value…Ask someone at Oracle if they feel good about what they're selling." Together, Oracle and Eloqua will create a "Customer Experience Cloud" to streamline the way companies market to their customers, as well as how they sell, support, and further serve them. Ultimately, it looks like Oracle wants to build the one customer experience service to rule them all. That includes offering a single brand experience for customers, pushing loyalty through social services, and pushing better leads to sales teams to drive revenue. The acquisition comes on top of Oracle's SelectMinds purchase in September, which gave it a leg-up on cloud human resource services.

What Mad Universe is a science fiction novel, written in 1949 by the American author, Fredric Brown.
Keith Winton is an editor for a science fiction magazine. With his glamorous co-worker girlfriend, Betty, he visits his friends one day in their elegant estate in the Catskills, unfortunately on the same day as an experimental rocket is to be launched. Betty has to go back to New York. Keith is alone in his friends' garden, deep in thought, when, suddenly, the engine of the rocket (whose launch has been a failure) crashes and explodes on his friends' residence. The rocket having been equipped with a brand new capacitor capable of storing previously unheard amounts of energy -it had to release that once in outer space- has it instead unloading its full power meters away from Winton, allowing his physical form to 'shift' through dimensions, taking him to a strange but deceptively similar parallel universe. Wild-eyed, Keith is astonished to see how credits have replaced dollars; is amazed when he encounters some scantily-clad pin-up girls who are, at the same time, astronauts; is driven to stupor when he encounters his first lunar native vacationing on Earth. But it is when he tries to get back to his usual world when he finally understands his problem. For a solution he has to get in touch with the impossibly 'larger than life' hero who leads Humanity's struggle against the Arcturian menace and his "artificial brain" sidekick 'Mekky'...getting involved in a last-minute plan to thwart the onslaught of a fearsome alien superweapon against the Solar System and Earth.
What Mad Universe is full of humor, mostly stemming from the description of the culture shock that the protagonist feels, and the strange things that are in the universe, like sewing machines that open the way for a voyage in space. A half-serious, half-humorous take on modern society and the reality of our world, its light-hearted tone would be built on by subsequent books, most notably his 1955 work, Martians, Go Home.
The novel has been named amongst the capstones of science fiction literature by several sci-fi critics, including [1]
- Annick Beguin, Les 100 principaux titres de la science-fiction, Cosmos 2000, 1981 ;
- Jacques Sadoul, Anthologie de la littérature de science-fiction, Ramsay, 1981 ;

- Stan Barets, Le science-fictionnaire, Denoël, coll. « Présence du futur », 1994.
Boucher and McComas named What Mad Universe the best SF novel of 1949, citing its "blend of humor, logic, terror and satire."[2] P. Schuyler Miller praised the novel as a "gleeful mulligan stew of well tried ingredients dished up with that all-important difference in flavor."[3]

NFLPA files grievance on behalf of Hernandez
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP)
The NFL Players Association has filed a grievance to help former New England Patriots star tight end Aaron Hernandez collect an $82,000 workout bonus.
Hernandez's contract provided for him to receive that amount if he participated in 90 percent of the team's voluntary offseason workouts.
''On behalf of all players, it is our responsibility to protect the rights in the collective bargaining agreement,'' the union said in a statement. ''We are not tone-deaf to what the allegations are in this case, but for the benefit of all players, there are important precedents here we must protect.''
The Patriots cut Hernandez after he was arrested on June 26 and before he was charged with murder later that day. He pleaded not guilty and is being held without bail in the shooting death of Odin Lloyd, a friend whose body was found June 17 near Hernandez's house. The union believes Hernandez earned the bonus before his arrest.
Patriots owner Robert Kraft indicated he disagreed.
''It's simple,'' he said Tuesday. ''You can look at our history. We honor all our contracts and we expect the people who sign them to honor their part of the contract.''
Asked if he felt Hernandez didn't do that, Kraft said, ''We honor our contracts and we expect the people on the other side to do the same.''
Last year, Hernandez signed a five-year, $40 million contract extension through the 2018 season. The contract, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press, includes an $82,000 bonus if Hernandez ''successfully completes'' at least 90 percent the possible offseason workouts at the team's facility. The bonus would have been paid ''on or about'' Aug. 1.
The NFL's collective bargaining agreement allows teams to recoup bonus money when a player is incarcerated. The Patriots cut Hernandez before the bonus, if earned, was due.
Hernandez was indicted last Thursday on first-degree murder and weapons charges in the death of Lloyd, whose bullet-riddled body was found in an industrial park about a mile from the ex-player's North Attleborough, Mass., home.
Prosecutors say Hernandez orchestrated Lloyd's killing because he was upset at him for talking to people Hernandez had problems with at a nightclub days earlier.
Kraft said that since he bought the Patriots before the 1994 season, ''we've had probably over 2,000 people playing here and I think, by and large, we've done a pretty good job. If you look at the last four years I don't think we had any off-field incidents. So we're as diligent as we can be.
''We know what we want to achieve, yet, when people go outside this building, it's like those of you who have children,'' Kraft told reporters. ''Once they get to a certain age, you can't control all their activities.''
He also said that ''every year in all of our businesses, we recalibrate what we are doing to make sure we're staying fresh and on top of things, and once you stop doing that, you'll perish.''
The NFL, Kraft said, is ''the most competitive business I've ever been involved in and so we have reviewed everything. We've been very diligent (in) the way we look at things and we'll try to do things as best as we can to achieve the results we want.''
The Patriots are ''a microcosm of the world,'' he said. ''All kinds of things are going to happen. We do our best to hope that (players) understand they're in a unique place. Playing in the NFL is a privilege and we hope they're wise and mature enough to make sure they know how to take advantage of that.''

Congress leader and former Union Minister Beni Prasad Verma today termed as conspiracy about the reports of his joining ruling Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh and did not rule out involvement of some persons from his party.
"A section of the media is showing speculative news regarding me joining SP, which I outrightly reject. There is no question of my son Rakesh joining the SP either," Beni told reporters at his residence. Such rumours were being spread as a part of a "conspiracy" and possibility of involvement of some person from Congress could not be ruled out.
"This is true that I was with the SP for 30 years, but I left the party due to acts of its supremo. Now I am in Congress and will die under the tricolour," Beni said. Verma lost to BJP candidate from Gonda constituency in the Lok Sabha polls.
He said Congress has become weak and the process started with the demolition of disputed structure at Ayodhya. "At that time Muslims went with the SP and with emergence of BSP dalit voters got associated with it," Verma said.
The former Union minister said Congress has to struggle and move forward, and it has to create its social base. He said that Yadav and Dalits were disenchanted with SP and BSP respectively and Congress should take advantage of this.
Beni claimed that the previous Manmohan Singh government strengthened the economic condition of the country by 10 times, but Congress failed to publicise it. He alleged that the BJP took advantage through propaganda of scams.

SINGAPORE (ICIS)--China's Zhejiang Jiahua Energy Chemical Industry shut its 380,000 tonne/year sulphur-burning plant in Zhejiang province, east China, on 20 January for maintenance, a company source said on Monday.
"The company will shut the plant for 15 days," the source said.
The shutdown will have a limited impact on China's sulphuric acid spot market as the plant's capacity is small, the source added.

Dear next prime minister,
Even as a significant contributor to India's economic development, the country's power sector is crippled with many challenges, owing to dated approaches and technologies. The 20th century was an era of centralised power generation when power stations were more expensive and less reliable than the grid, sharing of costly generating capacity and handling of diverse loads was only possible via a transmission grid but now is the time to change course and tackle the modern day problems crippling the sector by using modern day technologies.
Major challenges that are affecting conventional power generation technologies in India are:
Fuel availability – 70% of our generated power comes from fossil powered technologies. Ministry of coal has projected a coal deficit of 238 Metric Ton by 2017 to will be fulfilled by imports. This will be the major driver of inflation in electricity prices in future.
Ineffective transmission system – According to a report by central electricity authority, India looses approximately 23.8% of its produced energy in its transmission network where as continual power deficiency in the country in 10%. More over with transmission network is gradually becoming saturated and is insufficient to evacuate any more power unless a significant investment is made to upgrade the system
Environmental pollution – India is now the third highest polluting country in the world, based on CO2 emissions and 54% of the pollution in the country is due to electricity and heat production
Land acquisition – Consolidation of large parcels of land in suitable areas near water/ coal fuel source is tough and new Land Acquisition Act makes land acquisition more expensive and prolonged
This makes it imperative for India to start exploring the distributed generation model that has proved to be a roaring success in countries like USA and Germany. The advantages of distribution generation are manifold.
A distributed generation source can employ a range of technological options from renewable to non-renewable sources and help us diversify from the unclean and expensive fossil fuels. It can operate either in a connected grid or an off-grid mode. The engineering benefits of distributed generation include lower grid losses, better fault management and reactive support, thus ensuring increased power quality. Renewable energy based distributed generation has minimal environmental impact and improves the bottomline by controlling electric supply and costs.
Flexibility of having small modular installtions means no large consolidated land parcels are required. Due to a policy stasis on the matter, distributed generation remains an underutilised mechanism, while subsidised prices of fossil fuels is leading to artificially created low electricity rates in the country. This is reflected in the dismal financial condition of many state discoms in India. An important way to addressing this situation is by enforcing inter-connection standards, net metering and switching to smart grids. Grouping of smaller projects to reduce execution and financing costs and low cost debt would increase the attractiveness of the market for investors.
For distributed generation to achieve its true potential in making India an energy secure nation, it is critical to address the sector's needs at the technical, financial, regulatory and policy levels.
(Author is a graduate of Indian Institute of Technology- Delhi, currently working on his venture, Aeon Solaris, aimed at increasing the adoption of distributed generation models in India)

Removed the rest of the broken retainer plug. Part number was on the top of the plug. Went to Partselect.com looked up the part and ordered it. The right part (important) arrived in a few days. I put the arm back in place, screwed in the new retainer plug and we were back in business. Cost of part about $5.00. Price of not having to share in cleaning the dishes, priceless. Any future problems with any of my appliances, this is the first place I'll look for the needed part.

And that's just the pool. Add a massive dryland training area with trampolines, suspension harnesses and diving boards into foam pits, and it's no wonder that FINA, the sport's international governing body, has come to Tijuana three times since starting the Diving World Series in 2007 and not at all to the United States.
"I just wish I had a facility like this to train in," said American Christina Loukas, who is based outside Houston and finished second with Kassidy Cook in the synchronized 3-meter springboard behind China's Wu Minxia and He Zi. "It's just incredible."
Loukas and Cook also had the advantage of competing in only Dubai and Tijuana, opting to train for June's U.S. Olympic Trials instead of padding their frequent flier accounts with trips to Beijing and Moscow.
There'll be ample opportunity for that in the future. FINA is considering expanding the global series to six cities next year.

Sinitta has one gorgeous body and isn't afraid to show it off! If you don't believe us just check out these gorgeous snaps:
Sinitta looks amazing! Copyright: [rex]
This is exactly what we are wishing we had on today — is it hot outside or what?
So it's no surprise Sinitta was making the most of the weather as she stripped off at Rewind Festival.
The festival celebrates all things 80s and what is more 80s than former pop star Sinitta.
However, we know her best for being for being Simon Cowell's right hand lady on The X Factor.
We wonder if Sinitta picked ehr backing dancers outfits too?! Copyright: [rex]
Sinitta also famously dated Si back in the 80s and we can see exactly what it was that wooed Mr Cowell. Plus, the singer has also admitted that she has dated Brad Pitt and it's easy to see why!
We actually cannot believe she is 43, she has the body of an 18 year old! A blimmin' hot one, at that!
Some people have already said it is a bit of an odd outfit choice, but if we looked that good in our bikini we would probably wear it to the supermarket, let alone on stage.

Related Story: [Sinitta says Simon Cowell book is lies]
Plus, it's so hot outside can you hardly blame her?
And you better get used to seeing Sinitta back on stage, after she has vowed to make a pop comeback!
She says that she is definitely going to record some tracks and then see how it goes:
"So I'm going to record a couple of songs and see what happens. Hopefully I will be able to release an album next year."
We'll buy it in exchange for her fitness secrets! Deal?

If there was ever a time Apple felt the heat of the competition from the Android ecosystem, it's now. The fact that Apple broke its tradition of launching a single device every launch cycle with the iPhone 5S & the iPhone 5C is a strong indication of how it's reeling under the pressure.
With the iPhone 5C, Apple tried to appeal to a younger lot by making the range more price competitive and colorful. Now that the 5 inch 'phablet' is a norm and with more and more larger displays hitting the market, the 4-inch screen on the iPhone is beginning to look smaller and smaller. There are increasing suggestions that Apple fanboys are craving for larger displays and if Apple doesn't go for a larger real estate, they might just make a switch to the other side.
Besides, there have always been rumors of an Apple iPhone 6 with a larger display but now they seem more likely than ever. We have a deluge of leaks of body parts, chassis and iPhone 6 renderings. Most of them fake and some of them might just turn out to be genuine in time.
Here are a few that look the most interesting and possibly are closest to being the real iPhone 6.
As per rumors, the new iPhone 6 might sport a display size anywhere between 4.5 inch to 5 inch. We think it might be 4.5 inch if the ability to use the device with one hand is taken into consideration. But there is always room for more innovation as some of these images suggest.
Do let us know which rendition of the iPhone 6 you liked the most or which you think is most-likely to be the next flagship device.

Jordan nips Japan, seals last quarterfinals berth in FIBA Asia
More News from Celest R. Flores
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines — Jordan booted out Japan, 65-56, and booked its fifth straight quarterfinals appearance on Wednesday in the 27th Fiba Asia men's championships at the Mall of Asia Arena.
Jordan, which led by as many as 18 points, withstood a final rally by Japan, which pulled to within six in the last minute of the match.
"It was a tough game for both teams. We had to keep our concentration. But finally we won," said head coach Evangelos Alexandris through an interpreter.
Naturalized cager Jimmy Baxter paced Jordan with 16 points, along with six rebounds and three steals while Mohammad Hussein added 15 markers.
Naoto Tsuji was the lone scorer in double digits with 14 on 4-of-10 three point shooting for Japan, a nation that was once a contender in Asian basketball.
The 2011 finalists Jordan, which secured fourth in group E, meanwhile, set up a meeting with Iran in the knockout quarterfinals.
