Ladies beat Jesmond to make cup progress
Published at 07:35, Wednesday, 19 February 2014
TYNEDALE Hockey Ladies survived a late fightback from Jesmond Parish Church II to progress in the Shield Cup.
With Tyne leading 2-1, the game grew tense as the game neared its conclusion as JPC were awarded three short corners in quick succession.
Although the final whistle went before the final short corner was taken, the game carried on and, just as the ball was smacked out, an excellent interception from Katy Brown cleared the danger and confirmed Tynedale's triumph.
The ladies were indebted to the superb goalkeeping of Amy Keirl who more than once proved her worth to keep her side ahead in the second half.
The tie was a close affair throughout with the first few minutes quite congested, both sides struggling to settle into their rhythm.
Tynedale were disrupted by an injury to Brown, going off temporarily for a split lip caused by a lifted ball, but they started to turn on the style on her return.
They took the lead with half time approaching following a move which stemmed from a great save from Keirl.
Some intricate passing from Iona Mills and Sarah Withers saw them rapidly make up ground, splitting the Jesmond defence to allow Tori Rutherford to casually pick up the ball and push past the JPC keeper.
Jesmond roared back but were denied by some excellent defending from Alice Hodgcroft, leading to Tyne increasing their lead moments before the break.
From a short corner, a pass from Gemma Stanhope enabled Carole Weatherley to provide a cracking goal from the top of the D, the ball flying straight past the defence and the goalie.
Jesmond reemerged for the second in fine form and came close to reducing the arrears soon after, only for Keirl to keep her goal intact.
But she was to be eventually beaten, a long corner being fed into the D and a crowded circle where JPC managed to get back in it.
Tynedale responded well and nearly regained the two goal margin, Stanhope and Becca Glaister combing to set up Rutherford whose effort on goal narrowly sailed wide.
The missed chance was nearly punished as Jesmond pushed on, but Tyne dug in deep to hold on and book their place in the next round at Newcastle III tomorrow.

People from all backgrounds came out this week to strut their stuff for a panel of judges at a casting call for Jacksonville NC Fashion Week.
The tryouts were held Tuesday night at Miller-Motte Technical College, where a mixture of students, locals and professional models came to have their runway walk judged by a panel of seven people charged with deciding who would get to walk in the shows.
Fashion Week organizer Mike Claiborne, owner of Phase Two Beauty Salon and minister at New River Ministries in Jacksonville, said so many people showed up earlier casting calls that they had to turn some away. But for those who get the chance to be judged, the decision is based on things like attitude, not body shape. The casting call posted on the organization's web site asked specifically for males and fuller-figured models.
"I don't care about body size, I care about confidence," said LeeAnne Curtis, owner of LeeAnne's Creations and one of the panel's judges. Curtis was responsible for picking the children and teen models who would be modeling her clothing at the Sept. 26-27 fashion shows.
Few children showed up for the evening's auditions, but the teen and adult crowd was diverse. Zack Lewdell of Motions Model Management was one of the first in line at the casting call. He said he's been modeling and coaching models for nine years.
"Traveling to New York, Atlanta, Florida, and D.C. is what I do on a normal basis, but I always support North Carolina," Lewdell said.
Experiences like this are good for the city, he said, because it gives aspiring models in the area a chance to learn what is expected of them in the modeling world.
Kelsi Batchelor, 16, and Brittany Nguyen, 17, were among those trying out for the first time. They heard about the casting call from a friend, and decided it was worth a shot.
"Never in my life did I think Jacksonville would have something like this," Nguyen said.
While Nguyen and Batchelor were waiting to walk for the panel, an organizer told the women in the waiting area to make sure they had their heels ready. The pair rushed to their car to grab the pair of high heels, which they would have to share for their audition. Both of them said they were hoping an opportunity like this would lead to a career; but ultimately, it would be a fun experience to tell friends about, regardless of the outcome.
As more people began to trickle into the overflow room, Claiborne addressed those waiting to be seen in the main room. Not getting picked doesn't mean you're not model material, Claiborne said. For those who didn't make the cut, he said there would be more opportunities in the future.
"Fashion Week is not going anywhere," Claiborne said. "It'll be back again and again."

1150GS Tail Electrics
Doing some work to the bike today, when I took off the tailsection I noticed a factory plug zip-tied to the rear subframe. Wondering if anyone can ID this. I've run power to the rear of the bike to charge batteries in my top case, but I'll utilize this plug if it's for accessory power.
Thanks in advance. :thumb
That plug there is for a CO2 potentiometer. Your bike does not have it, since it has a lambda probe, AKA oxygen sensor. The harnesses are all the same, so some plugs remain unused.
On my 1150 that is where the shut off or turn on valve is for the vacuum for the charcoal canister.
I sealed mine off with electrical tap and zip tied it out of the way.
Cannister solenoid plug
That's the plug for the charcoal cannister solenoid. You must not have the cannister. It looks as though the solenoid is missing for sure. I know - I removed all that crap from my 1150GS yesterday to fit something else in place of the cannister.
Regarding the use of the connector as an accessory power source. I think the connector is supplied switched 12V through one wire when the key is on, and the other wire is a switched ground from the Motronic ECU to operate the solenoid at the proper time. That means you should be able to use the switched 12V wire to power a phone charger or what not. If it is switched 12V you can easily pull a few amps from that gauge wire over 2 meters.
p.s.: I would verify the wiring instead of just from memory, but I don't have the pdf wiring diagram handy. I bet someone on here will check that for you. Hey you guys. Who has the factory 1150 wiring diagram handy?
Thanks, gentlemen! :thumbup

Celtics drop preseason opener to Raptors, 97-89
BOSTON — The Boston Celtics played a scrappy, hustling brand of basketball that on most nights will be good enough to be competitive, as was the case on Monday night against Toronto.
But being scrappy and successful are not synonymous, a point driven home by the Raptors handing the Celtics a 97-89 preseason loss despite Boston's best efforts.
Yes, this is a new team with a new coach.
But Monday's loss exposed an Achilles heel - rebounding - that has hurt the Celtics in recent years.
Toronto spent most of the game getting easy shot after easy shot which allowed them to shoot an impressive 52.1 percent from the field.
But even more disturbing for the Celtics was how the Raptors dominated the boards, 46-26 which led to the Raptors outscoring the Celtics 22-11 in second-chance points.
Last season, Boston grabbed 39.3 rebounds per game which ranked next-to-last in the NBA.
Even more telling about the Celtics' rebounding woes was their minus-4.3 rebounding differential which was dead-last in the league last season.
As badly as the Celtics were getting manhandled on the boards, they would not go away quietly.
After trailing by as many as nine points in the third quarter, they rallied to tie the game at 73 on a Gerald Wallace jumper with about 10 seconds remaining.
The comeback was short-lived as the C's allowed Terrence Ross a lightly contested baseline jumper with 1.5 seconds to play that gave Toronto a 75-73 lead.
Boston had its share of runs in the fourth, but the Raptors countered each Celtics spurt with one of their own and ultimately put the game away.
A victory would have certainly been a great way for Stevens to kick off his coaching career with the Celtics, especially with Monday being his wife Tracy's birthday.
But more important at this point for him is to figure out which combinations work best for the Celtics as they continue to gear up for the regular season.
Monday's loss didn't exactly add any clarity to the situation as the Celtics starters and backups each played well in spurts.
In the first quarter, the Celtics fell behind by as many as 12 points only to rally behind the play of the bench trio of Gerald Wallace, Kelly Olynyk and Jared Sullinger.
Wallace finished with a team-high 16 points. Sullinger had 14 points, six rebounds and four assists while Olynyk had four points and a team-high five assists.
It was that trio that Stevens singled out prior to the game as a combination that had been working really well together in practice.
"Those guys have been terrific," said Celtics forward Jeff Green. "The challenge of playing against Gerald (Wallace) has made me a better player; to me one of the top defensive players in the league. Sully has been working hard to get back. And Kelly for a rookie, he's very talented, very mature for a rookie. They've been looking good together."
Still, the Raptors have their own talented threesome headlined by Rudy Gay who had 13 points at the half on 5-for-8 shooting. He finished with a game-high 17 points.
"I just want to win," Gay told CSNNE.com. "That's what this season is about for me; winning. It's the next level for me, honestly."
In addition to Gay, Toronto also got solid performances from Jonas Valanciunas (10 points, 10 rebounds) and point guard Kyle Lowry (seven points, five rebounds, five assists) who told CSNNE.com that he was looking forward to matching up with C's point guard Avery Bradley.
"Bradley is such a good defender, you have to be on top of your game when he's guarding you," Lowry said. "He's a good player for them."
The Celtics have a number of solid NBA players on their roster. But whether they can eventually become a good team remains to be seen.

School Wants Students to Sign 'No Twerking' Contract
Twerking has no place on school grounds.
Twerking has no place on school grounds.
Teams are beginning to jockey for playoff position as the 2013 NFL season reaches its eighth week. Here are five storylines we'll be watching this week:
It's scary how creative some Halloween costumes are.
Halloween is haunted-house season, the one time of year you when, if you want, you can pay a random group of actors to fill up an old warehouse with gory props and costumes and scare the snot out of some people. But if you're looking for a subtler, truly frightening experience, America is full of houses that really are haunted (well, maybe).
Here's a math question for you: if a struggling student passes a class, how loud will his dad cheer?
Fights at NFL games among fans are almost as common as Eli Manning interceptions, but a tiff at this weekend's New England Patriots-New York Jets tilt may have taken altercations to shocking new levels.
At a middle school in Sparks, Nevada, on Monday morning, a student shot and killed a teacher, then shot himself in the head fatally, according to early police reports.
Life at work can be difficult enough without having to deal with a coworker who isn't pulling his weight. This person can do a lot of damage to workplace morale, not to mention the team's overall success. You don't have to just suffer in silence, though. There are ways you can deal with a lazy co-worker, and none of them involve you running screaming from the building.
Somehow, bacon has gotten even tastier.
Ronald McDonald has never been funnier.
Raising kids these days is almost as tough as getting your little ones to like you.
The season of the witch is upon us. Time to brush up on your history—these evil green-skinned sorcerers aren't necessarily what you think. For example, they aren't evil, green-skinned or sorcerers. (Well, maybe some are, but not usually.)

White House to press senators on consumer nominee
Sunday - 12/4/2011, 8:01pm EST
WASHINGTON (AP) - White House officials say they will pressure Republican lawmakers from seven states ahead of this week's expected Senate vote on the confirmation of Richard Cordray to head the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
In a conference call with reporters, aides said the White House will use briefings and interviews with local journalists and statements from local elected officials to try persuading GOP senators to back Cordray in a vote they said could occur Thursday. The seven states — Alaska, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Nevada, Tennessee and Utah &mdash all have Republican senators that the White House is hoping to win over.
Republicans have said they will block Senate confirmation of anyone to head the agency until other regulators and Congress have more control over the bureau.

Did you know that Mitt Romney was in a coma for a few days during the `60s? No, not due to drugs. Lou Colagiovanni gives the commonly accepted story for the Examiner:
… Read the rest
Before Mitt Romney was a politician he was a Mormon missionary in France during the 1960s. It is a little known fact that while he was spreading the gospel through rural France in 1968, Mitt Romney was involved in a head-on collision. Romney was driving, and one of his passengers was killed.
This was first reported by The Boston Globe in 2007 when they told the story of Mitt Romney almost dying in Bernos-Beaulac, France while driving a Citroen DS. Romney, who was 21 at the time, was driving from Pau to Bordeaux as a chauffeur for Duane Anderson the French Mormon mission president.
Romney tells the story of going around a curve and being struck at full speed by a Catholic priest named Albert Marie.

47 year old woman | Austin, TX, USA | Seeking women 30-52 within 50 miles
I have a lot of love to give....I just need the right woman to give it to.
My friends say I am generous of heart and spirit. I think I am intelligent, down to earth and fun. I love to laugh. I'm open to new experiences. Definitley passionate, caring and affectionate; a sensual and committed lover. Loving and loyal like a dog minus the shedding a face licking...unless you're in to that ;) . Being trustworthy and reliable is important for me and something I look for in a partner. Comfortable in various social settings. I love sports of all kinds. I like being outdoors, indoors, between doors.....just as long as the company is good I'm there. Texas is a little hot for me given that I moved here from Chicago. But I am getting better as time goes on. Though I still do enjoy a chilly, rainy day! I find that I am attracted to different types of women, but ultimately I really enjoy someone who can hold a conversation, doesn't believe everything she reads and likes to build new experiences. A woman who can laugh even in the toughest of times, adventurous and fun. Someone honest and accepting of herself and others. A woman who enjoys her sensuality or is at least open to finding it. Down to earth but with some knowledge of culture. A woman who enjoys affection, likes to be held and delights in being told she is loved. But, let's just start with a date and some laughs. We have plenty of time to get to the rest.

I love a lot of different music, but not much of a country fan--though some songs are okay. I play a lot of hip hop, old school R&B and neo-soul.
Though it won't win any awards for originality, I like going to movies, out for a dinner or drink, relax at home, attend sporting events and go out dancing now and again. Maybe see some local bands, a play, comedy club just the usual.

"We can't do it the same way we have been doing it in the past," said Tedisco. "This is a governor (Cuomo) that is not a steam roller and a person that thinks before he acts."
When asked who should sit on the panel, Tedisco said members of Academia, individuals with business experience and elected officials. He said Cuomo could choose to make the panel any way he desires, with less or more members, but he merely offered a suggestion.
"When you have an addiction you need some outside intervention," said Tedisco. "I don't think it is ever a bad thing to get your constituents involved with recommendations."
Also, Tedisco doesn't imagine there would be any cost with the commission and it will be comprised of volunteers to offer suggestions and solutions. Getting constituents involved in the process, he said, is never a bad thing to pursue.
"If you are dealing with deficit I don't think we would want to pay anybody," said Tedisco. "I think it would be an honor to want to straighten out the economic situation facing New York."
Tedisco cited Cuomo's volunteer transition teams, which work with Cuomo to select candidates for leadership roles in cabinet position and agencies, for the willingness of constituents and advocacy groups to assist in state matters.
"Cutting the deficit is not going to be easy but the longer we wait the harder it'll be to turn our state's economy around," said Tedisco.""

Murray has also won 3 of their last 4 matches. Based on that I would say Murray is the better player right now, despite the rankings. Obviously many agree with me, as in previewing the Australian Open final the ESPN continously referred to it as the two best players in the World right now. The rankings will follow suit soon enough in all likelihood.
Federer won 6 tournaments in 2012: 3 MS1000's, 2 500's and Wimbledon. Murray won 3 tournaments last year: the USO, Olympics and a 250 event (zero MS1000's). Masters tournaments are actually very tough to win, just ask David Ferrer who, although #4 in the world, just won his first ever at Paris Bercy. And Federer
have a lot of points to defend going forward because he had a much better start to last year than Murray who went away after the AO, so yes it will be tough for him to hold onto his ranking if he can't defend those titles. But I still believe every time he and Murray play it's all on his racquet. If Federer has his A Game, Murray's in trouble.

One of California's most well-known and celebrated figurative
expressionist painters, Joan Brown is recognized among the important
artists who emerged from the creative milieu of the San Francisco Bay
Area in the late 1950s. Perhaps because of her premature death,
recognition of her work as a significant abstract painter of the late
20th century has taken time. San Francisco born Joan Brown
became an art student almost by accident. She graduated from high
school at 17 with no real training in art in 1955. Her parents
enrolled her at Lone Mountain College, then a women's Catholic school
in San Francisco. Shortly before her first day of classes there,

We all know the story of Laika the Space Dog, the brave pup who ventured into space in a Soviet rocket ship and died in-transit. At Motherboard, Becky Ferreira has written a piece on the lingering heartbreak of Laika's death and the questions that arise regarding the ethics of sending an unsuspecting dog into space to die for human progress and science. Whatever side of the fence you sit on, it's a lovely essay (seriously–I felt my eyes welling up while reading it) and is worth a read. … Read More

As of yesterday, 20,000 people had applied for a spot on the mission, and 24 to 40 of the applicants will duke it out on reality TV to be among the first humans to colonize a planet. Clearly, they haven't seen enough space movies to realize that this is a horrible idea. If these applicants just took the time to watch the following movies and TV shows, they'd surely think twice about hopping into a spaceship. … Read More
10 Fantastic Pre-Spaceflight Films About Space
Between the death of Neil Armstrong this week, the recent death of Sally Ride, and all of the high-resolution postcards from Mars that Curiosity has been busy sending back to Earth, we've had space on our minds quite a bit lately. Generations of scientists have been captivated by the prospect of space travel, but prior to the first human actually leaving the Earth's atmosphere in 1961, it was up to science fiction to imagine what that experience might be like. Film offered the perfect medium for envisioning the desolation of hurdling towards the stars, the exotic landscapes of faraway worlds, and the alien creatures that we might encounter there. We've put together a list of ten classic sci fi films that predate cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin becoming the first person in space. From the realistic to the campy, science fiction film remains one of the most imaginative genres. … Read More
The Inspiration Behind Neil Armstrong's Immortal Words
NBC reported yesterday that the modest astronaut who became a global hero after taking "one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind" on the moon in 1969 died yesterday. Neil Armstrong was 82 years old. The mission commander of the Apollo 11 took his historic flight with command module pilot Michael Collins and lunar module pilot Buzz Aldrin — who tweeted these words after hearing the sad news: "I know I am joined by millions of others in mourning Neil's passing – a true American hero and the best pilot I ever knew." The always wonderful Open Culture has published an hour-long BBC documentary about the life and times of the astronaut, which reveals how Armstrong conceived of those famous, poetic words we will always remember him for. Head past the break to find out more. … Read More
15 Fictional Spacecrafts We'd Like to Call Home
Prometheus, Ridley Scott's first go at sci-fi since his epic cult classic Blade Runner took a genre-defining look at the modern metropolis of the future, hits theaters this Friday, and we couldn't be more excited. Even though we're no closer to a world overrun by flying cars and human-like androids, we still fantasize about a day when Venus is a viable getaway option and adorable lifeforms from other planets drop by to chat over a bag of Reese's Pieces.
To satisfy our insatiable curiosity for all things futuristic, we thought we'd take a look at the interiors of some of the most notable space stations, space hotels, and intergalactic battleships in film and television and ponder the question: could we ever really live in space? If space architecture looks anything like the stunning, luxurious, and playful production design of these decidedly livable spacecrafts, our answer is a definite yes. From the decadent, spacious interiors of The Fifth Element's Fhloston Paradise Hotel to the well-executed mix of old and new on the creepy Solaris space station, click through to check out the best of livable design in places not on this Earth. Maybe Richard Branson has the right idea after all! … Read More
Happy Super Moon: A Brief Overview of the Moon in Pop Culture
Werewolves, it's time to lock yourselves up extra tight (probably in the library cage, if you're Oz) — tonight, the full moon will be a "supermoon," that is, even bigger and brighter than usual. The phenomenon is caused when the moon becomes full at the same time as it comes closest to the earth in its orbit, and has been linked to various natural disasters — though science tells us that's all nonsense. To celebrate the lunar event, you'll probably be wanting to indulge in some moon-related pop culture, so we've collected 30 culturally relevant moons and moon-related phenomena for your perusal. Click through to check out the moon in all its phases in pop culture, and let us know if we've missed your favorite lunar shout outs in the comments. … Read More
10 Memorable Disembodied Voices in Film
New Yorkers will recognize the voice of Carolyn Hopkins, but they might have a hard time placing it. That's because she has recorded many of the voiceovers used in New York's subway system, alerting commuters about incoming trains and the like (you can hear a recording at the New York Times). As in real life, these voice actors often go unnamed and unappreciated. So, in honor of Mrs. Hopkins, we decided to look at 10 of the most memorable disembodied voices in film. … Read More
Moon's Moody Take on the Sci-Fi Genre
Editor's note: This review originally ran during the Tribeca Film Festival. We're re-running it because the film opens in theaters nationwide today.
Moon is a collage of sci-fi cinema whose cut and paste pieces will be familiar even to those not comfortable dropping terms like Replicant or Sleestack into polite conversation. That's not to say it lacks originality — there's a star-cluster of clever twists and style — but Moon manages to find that magical middle ground where both zealots of the genre and newbies will feel satisfied to spend 90 minutes on board. Much of this has to do with Sam Rockwell, and the simple concept that gets pulled in a number of contortions that are easy enough to follow yet avoid the soap-opera-in-space-syndrome that plagues too many frames of contemporary sci-fi celluloid.… Read More

Review: Zipit Z2 Messenger
I keep hearing that it has to be 10 dollars a month. But then I also heard you have to pay about 30 dollars at the end of the year and the ending price gets higher after 2 yers. Why?
Now the zipit is only about
Now the zipit is only about $50 and can send txts (SMS) to cell phones to... But you have to register at zipit and you get a year free and a year of servace is only like $25 so It ant all that bad..... I came here looking for info on the hakes version that's like a little comp. Just so you know
I think the only reason
I think the only reason people dont like the keyboard is because the zipit was originally made for teens, therefore it is made for thin fingers.
IMing from Zipit to Zipit
I have the Zipit 2.How can I IM to someone elses Zipit? I don't always see my IM friends under the "MyFriendz" column. Do they have to be online in order for me to see their IM names listed or should their IM names always show on my list even though they aren't online or on their zipit? The only names I see all of the time are those who I can text to their phones. For instance I set up an IM account in Yahoo for my niece so she can use her Zipit. I can't send her messages to her Zipit because her name doesn't appear on my "MyFriendz" list. Same thing for her. She can only text to someones phone and not to a Zipit. And yes I did add her and she added me. I do however see all of those I've added both text and IM frinds when I click on "Delete My Friendz". They are all there so I know they are added. Please help!
YES, your friend has to be
YES, your friend has to be online (computer, phone, or Zipit) at the same time in which you are in order to send an instant message. Also, make sure the screen name is spelled correctly. Sometimes people can confuse zero's with the letter "o" and so on. Good Luck
It seems like the keyboard would be a hassle to type on. However, i think that for something with the specs, watching videos with mplayer would be cool and potentially real time, and as a pda/calendar app would be very good
I wasn't able to dig up the processor specs, etc -- but I agree the keyboard isn't fun. Regarding typing functionality, it's somewhere between a cellphone and an EeePC. :)
I really do hope they open it wide up for 3rd party stuff, it's a pretty neat form factor, and it's built pretty solid. The screen is very bright and clear too.

Ariana Resources plc : Successfully Passes Public and Ministerial Consultation for Red Rabbit Gold Project, Turkey 2 April 2013 AIM: AAU PUBLIC AND MINISTERIAL CONSULTATION: RED RABBIT GOLD PROJECT, TURKEY Ariana Resources plc ("Ariana" or "the Company"), the gold exploration and development company focused on Turkey, is pleased to announce that the Kiziltepe Sector of the Red Rabbit Gold Project in Western Turkey has successfully passed the public and ministerial consultation process as part of its Environmental Impact Assessment ("EIA") submission to the Ministry of Environment and Urban Planning ("MEUP"). Highlights: *Meeting attended by approximately 100 people from surrounding villages with no opposition to the proposed development of the mine at Kiziltepe. *Site selected for the mine and process plant considered suitable by the Provincial Directorate in subsequent communication with Turkish authorities. *Clear path to production for 2014 now in place with one remaining milestone: EIA positive certification, expected in Q3 2013. Dr. Kerim Sener, Managing Director, commented: "The successful completion of the Public Consultation Meeting for the proposed development of a mine at Kiziltepe is another significant milestone for Ariana. Having clearly presented our intentions in detail to a group of over 100 people from the surrounding villages there was no opposition to the Kiziltepe development. This is testament to the regional support Ariana enjoys, which is an instrumental factor in developing a mine at the site. "Following the meeting, the site selected for the mine and process plant at Kiziltepe were considered suitable by the Provincial Directorate. The next step is the EIA positive certification which, following a meeting for the purposes of scoping the requirements for its completion last week, is expected to be received during Q3 2013. The successful completion of these milestones provides us a clear path forward as we progress towards production targeted for 2014. We look forward to updating shareholders on further developments." Public Consultation Meeting On 14 March 2013, a Public Consultation Meeting was held at Yusufcami Village in the district of Sindirgi, Balikesir Province. This meeting was held in accordance with the requirements of the MEUP as per Article 9 of the EIA Regulations and was chaired by a representative of the MEUP. The meeting was organised for the purpose of informing the public and in order to receive their opinions. The meeting provided a presentation of the Kiziltepe Gold and Silver Mine given by the EIA consultants, SRK Consulting, followed by a forum in which questions could be asked. Public participation in the meeting comprised of approximately 100 attendees from the surrounding village areas of Yusufcami, Yolcupinari and Coturtepe. There was no opposition to the proposed development of the mine at Kiziltepe. Following the meeting and in a subsequent communication from the Governorship of Balikesir, Provincial Directorate of Environment and Urban Planning, sent to the Company on the 20 March 2013, the site selected for the mine and process plant were considered suitable by the Provincial Directorate. Ministerial Consultation Meeting A meeting was held on 21 March 2013 at the MEUP in Ankara for the purposes of finalising the requirements for EIA completion among various government departments. Participants of the scoping meeting included the representatives from the General Directorate of State Hydraulic Works, General Directorate of Meteorology, General Directorate of Nature Conservation and National Parks, Provincial Directorate of Environment and Urbanization, Provincial Directorate of Public Health, SRK Consulting and the Company. The Provincial Directorate of Food, Agriculture and Livestock and the General Directorate of Forestry did not participate in the meeting but instead provided their written reports. The representatives of the various government departments expressed their views on the project and indicated that the required documents and information relevant to the EIA were provided to their satisfaction. Any additional information required as relevant to the EIA was noted and will be provided to the MEUP in due course. All additional information as requested by the MEUP is considered by the Company to be necessary and routine.

The Company is developing a portfolio of prospective licences selected on the basis of its in-house geological and remote-sensing database, on its own in western Turkey and in Joint Venture with Eldorado Gold Corporation in north-eastern Turkey. Eldorado owns 51% of this joint venture and is fully funding all exploration work on the JV properties, while Ariana owns 49% and is the operator.

The total resource inventory of the Company stands at 448,000 ounces of gold equivalent.

While the food (when they have it) is Ok (quality is really inconsistent), this is the fourth time I get a call from them after placing an order telling me they don't have something on the menu and asking me to change my order. While I get that these things happen once or twice, at the third or fourth time one has to wonder about the standards of an establishment. I will no longer be ordering from Choice Market via Seamless and will think twice about popping in while I am in the neighborhood.

Choice is so tasty it's always worth the big price tag and the 45 minute wait to receive my goodies. I've never been disappointed with any meal I've ordered from here and I've had the works. The BLT is their most famous food item for a reason, it's absolutely kickass. Their burgers have great meat and have great buns (hehe) the scones are killer (duh) and their coffee is my favorite in the neighborhood. They take great care in packing the food so it arrives fresh and fabulously delicious.

I'm starting to think delivery from Choice is a bad idea, as it's extremely unreliable and as I just made mention that it's been over an hour and she remarked, we won't send you cold food! in a very rushed tone. Eventhough they are slammed, seem awfully rude, that response. My rating of this cafe has dropped from 4 to 2 stars. I would suggest walking in and ordering! Do NOT ORDER DELIVERY! TOO UNRELIABLE. WAITING OVER 75 MINUTES NOW! :(

Choice used to be my favorite place to order from until they changed their delivery minimum to $18 PLUS a $1 delivery fee, from a previous $12 minimum. Ridiculous. I will most likely not be ordering from them again.

I wondered why out of hundreds of reviews this place has only 3 Stars and now I know. It took them over 1 hour to deliver us some eggs and toast. When it arrived the food was cold and tasteless. We will not be ordering breakfast or any other meal from "Choice" ever again because there are so many other better CHOICES to be made in Ft Greene.

No stars!!! I walked over to Choice on Thursday Nov 21st at 6:45 p.m. why is it that it took over 20 minutes to get two, TWO kebobs heated up!! It was not packed, it seemed like the kitchen staff and the two people working the cashier could not get their stuff together. Waiting for over 20 minutes for two already made items, items that only needed to be heated up is completely unacceptable! I used to give Choice the benefit of the doubt but this was the last and final straw! There are way more places around where the service, food and staff are way nicer and actually say "sorry" for making you wait, because we screwed up!

If I could, I would make 'Choice boycott Club'. Terrible service, overpriced, taking a million years to deliver (WTF with $1 delivery fee!!??) and I guess food is okay, relatively okay.

I have to say.... I never really rate restaurants unless they're TERRIBLE and I want to help people avoid spending unnecessary money for mediocre food. OR in this case.... To help them make a choice they won't regret. Truth is, have not been disappointed by Choice Market. Their chicken paninis are phenomenal, freshly squeezed orange juice is very delicious.

If I was writing this review for Choice Market one year ago, it would have been a solid 4 stars. Today, it pains me to have to leave a 1-star feedback for this Clinton Hill staple. I frequent Choice Market approximately once a week for lunch - usually have it delivered via Seamless or pick it up from there. While the service has always been abysmal, yesterday's Choice experience left me vowing never to return. My co-workers and I placed an order via Seamless for pickup. The first mark on them was that when we got there they alerted me that one of the items we had ordered was one they didn't have. I don't know why they couldn't be bothered to call and tell me that before they charged my card AND proceeded to make the rest of the order. I have ordered from other places who happened to have something on their menu that was not in stock and received a call to alert me of this every. single. time. Upon asking them, "Well, what are my options?" The guy rudely said "Um. A refund?" Well, as I mentioned, the refund never came and I had to call Seamless, who very quickly resolved the matter. Now, as far as the food itself...it was off. My co-worker and I both ordered the steak panini and the steak in it tasted really REALLY off. We both noticed this and ended up removing the meat from the sandwich, but not until after we ate the first half of it. It tasted like old meat. I can't really describe it, but it was terrible. I always order the steak panini there and have never had this experience before. I also know how the sandwich and meat is supposed to taste. Well, as cliche as it may be, both of us ended up sick with severe stomach cramps from it! I can't in good conscience ever order from here again. At least before, their food was actually worth the headache it is to have to deal with them. Now, its completely not. I know this place gets a lot of love because on the surface they seem super awesome and have lots of varieties of food and drinks, but its completel

So I used to order from these guys a lot. The paninis were good and filling, and I thought worth the price. But the last two times I've ordered from Choice I've had some problems. The first time was breakfast, which all arrived cold and overdone. I understand that it can sometimes chill out on the way over, but for the price I was paying I was seriously underwhelmed. Then there's my lunch today. Ordered a hefty amount, feeling hungry- chicken panini, kale and cranberry salad and a home-made juice. They called me up saying my salad wasn't available, so I substituted, not a bother. But when the food arrived, my sandwich was burnt, I took a bite out of it and pulled out a bone, and the serving sizes were TINY for the prices I was paying. 6 dollar juice in a tiny bottle, 5 dollar salad not even one full serving and a meager sandwich. Needless to say I called up, and the girl was super polite and gave me a refund (2 stars are purely because of her service). But the food was a complete disappointment. Quality has gone downhill since my first order. Come on, Choice! Bring it back!! Give me a reason to order from you again. Edit: Also just tried the kale and barley salad. DO NOT ORDER. Horrifying.

If you want to order your lunch but get it for dinner, Choice Market is your best choice!

Choice Market is always solid. Everything is fresh and very tasty. Delivery can take a while to arrive but if you've lived in the hood for a while you would understand why. This place is ussually pretty busy. If you are looking for a meal to be delivered quickly you may want to look elsewhere.

I have to preface this review by saying that I love Choice Market and I go there often. That said, I do NOT recommend ordering from them via Seamless Web. I was so looking forward to a nice soup, a BLT sandwich and a brownie. I received confirmation of my order at 12:49 with a 45 - 60 minute time frame for delivery. The guy finally shows up at 2:08, and it's not until after he's long gone that I notice they brought me the wrong sandwich and left out the brownie! I was so disappointed. I called immediately after looking in the bag and noticing that the brownie was missing. They said they'd send it right away (though it's already been nearly 30 minutes, and still no brownie). I ate the soup first, so I didn't notice the sandwich was wrong until I was ready to bite into it. At that point, I called back again to tell them how disappointed I was. After explaining everything to the guy who answered the phone, he tells me to hold for a second, and a woman gets on the phone and says "Choice Market". What??? Sorry but I no longer have the energy to repeat all of that because after waiting so long for my food to arrive I'm STARVING. Needless to say, I ate the other sandwich. It wasn't bad, but not what I wanted. Still craving that BLT...though next time I'll get it on a day when I have time to walk over there.

MINNEAPOLIS University of Minnesota football coach Jerry Kill was not on the sideline for the second half of the Gophers' game Saturday against Michigan State. The school said that he was unlikely to return to the game but did not have any other updates on his condition during the second half. The Gophers went on to lose, 26-10. Kill, 51, has a history of seizures. He suffered one on the sideline of the Gophers' game last year against New Mexico State and another in the TCF Bank Stadium locker room after Minnesota's loss to Northwestern earlier this year. He was hospitalized after both episodes. Despite his seizure disorder, Kill has never missed a game due to seizures. The Gophers' second-year coach prefers not to talk about his medical condition. After his seizure this October, Kill downplayed the situation. His only comment on his health following the Northwestern game was, "I'm back to work, going full speed." Follow Tyler Mason on Twitter.

Watch Falling Skies
The aliens landed six months ago, and it didn't go well for the residents of Earth. In Falling Skies, TNT's latest sci-fi series, Noah Wiley plays Tom Mason, a history professor who is forced to become a revolutionary hero in order to save his sons, his country and his world. He becomes the second in command to the 2nd Mass rebel group which is trying to fight its way out of post-invasion Boston.
Ever since the invasion of the combination of insect-like "skitters," the grey skinned overlord aliens and the robot Mechs, most of humanity has been wiped out. Cities have been destroyed and millions of people killed. Many surviving children have been captured and turned into slaves through the use of a biological harness that attaches through their skin on top of their spine.
Tom Mason's son Ben is one of the children fitted with a harness and kept in mental slavery by the skitters and their companions. Mason's main objective is to rescue his son from the aliens and try to remove the harness and restore his boy to his humanity. This may be Mason's main goal in life, but the leaders of the resistance have other plans.
Tom Mason's encyclopedic memory for history is of great use when planning campaigns against the enemy, and the resistance finds Mason a valuable second leader. Their one and only goal is to cause as much damage as possible to the aliens while finding safe haven for themselves and the civilian groups they gather along the way.
The surviving members of the human race are as diverse as you might expect, with not everyone being a good and noble human. There are members of a biker gang that are helpful as long as it suits their purpose, backstabbing collaborators who cooperate with the aliens for preferential treatment and selfish loaners who want nothing to do with the resistance, preferring instead to just hide out and be left alone.
Falling Skies was created by Robert Rodat, who wrote Saving Private Ryan, and is produced by Steven Spielberg. The production quality is high and each episode looks more like a theater-quality film instead of a television series. It is filmed in Canada during the fall and winter, giving the mainly outdoor sets a chilled and serious look. Now in its second season, Falling Skies is garnering even bigger praise from critics than it did its first year.

Falling Skies News
"Falling Skies" is getting one more year before saying goodbye. TNT is renewing the sci-fi drama for a fifth and final season, according to Deadline. The report claims that five seasons was the length that producers were hoping to have for the series in order to complete the story. "Falling Skies" has been a winner for the network, as it has recently averaged about 5.5 million total viewers once live views and seven-day DVR views are counted. By the same metrics, the show gets about a 2.
The beginning of this series finale episode was a prime example of why this show is so frustrating: everyone is combative just for the purpose of being difficult. They would tell you they're being "principled," but really, this is a show full of stubborn characters who like to preach their ideals so much that they're completely unable to see the other side of the argument. In short, either "Falling Skies" has a bunch of obnoxiously written characters, or it's a brilliant show that acts as a metaphor for our ineffective Congress and the political in-fighting over trivial matters that continues despite more pressing issues.
With just two episodes left in the second season, you would expect some action in this penultimate episode. You would be wrong. There are no aliens, nor scouting, nor shots fired in "The Price of Greatness." There is only politics. It had to come to that eventually, and honestly, a show about the political restructuring of a nation after an alien attack might be a really interesting show. "Falling Skies" is not that show, however: it is a show about shooting the aliens, and then everybody hugs, and then hopefully two attractive people make out.
What. A. Yawner. This episode was a prime example of everything that's been wrong with this second season of "Falling Skies." It was a perfect storm of characters we don't care about getting screen time, manufactured obstacles that impede the progress of our heroes, and general mucking about with feelings when there are much larger things to worry about. Murphy's Law struck in a couple of places: Hal, Maggie and Pope got a busted radiator hose (of course) and the rest of the caravan was attacked by the sibling of a harnessed girl that they picked up, because apparently nobody has learned their lesson yet about picking up harnessed kids.
Well, Ben's little excursion with Kara goes predictably badly, and I say predictably because whenever the characters on this show aren't suffering some of the worst luck in the world (see last week's commentary on how prevalent Murphy's Law is on this show), they're making some of the worst decisions. It's really astonishing how often these people are wrong. They fail to trust the people that they should trust (remember how much of a dick Weaver was to the woman from Charleston?), and they all too easily trust the people that they shouldn't.
At this point, we might as well rename Murphy's Law to "Falling Skies"s' Law. Anything that can go wrong on this show, will go wrong. Case in point: this episode has Weaver falling ill from, apparently, a toxin from the harness that has entered his bloodstream. This has not been a problem for anyone else, mind you... just Weaver. The solution is to pump Weaver's blood out, heat it to 108 degrees and kill the pathogen, then cool the blood and pump it back in. This would all go swimmingly if, of course, it weren't for the fact that 2nd Mass happens to be nearly out of fuel for their generators.
Finally, an episode of "Falling Skies" that moves forward instead of idling at a standstill. It seems that, ever since the pilot, every episode has been manufactured obstacles and interpersonal drama, most of which has been supremely uninteresting. Not to sully the memory of Jimmy or anything, but c'mon... who actually cared? We start with a small mystery, as the group encounters a bunch of dead mechs and skitters but no sign of human bullet casings or weapons. Are the aliens fighting against each other now? There isn't much time to consider that question as they uncover Rick, still alive but in shock.
Another down week for "Falling Skies" it seems, as we seem to be pretty heavy on the sentiment lately and short on action. There was a bit to get excited about this week, but a lot of it was bogged down in emotion based, once again, on characters that we don't even care about, or barely even know. It all starts when 2nd Mass has a run-in with a group of kids who steal their bikes. When Hal and Ben go to get their stuff back, they invite the leader, Diego, and a few of the other kids back with them to resupply.
It's cute how this show assumes that we care in the slightest about Jimmy, isn't it? Here's a tip, guys: if you want us to care about a character, you have to have them do something likeable first. You can't just have them nearly get everyone killed in season one because he wanted to save his dog and then assume we'll care what happens to him later. In any case, spoiler alert, Jimmy dies at the end of this episode. Yeah, that wasn't a lot of warning, but I'm assuming since you read "recap" in the title that you're expecting spoilers.
Back to Part 1 - "Worlds Apart" The second part of the premiere manages to stay in one time period, which means less jumping around for us. But Tom's health is still in question: we open with him having a nightmare about Ol' One-Eye, which makes Tom wonder if the aliens might have done something to his mind while he was their prisoner. Pope obviously agrees, but Weaver, for all his lack of trust last season, has absolutely no doubts about Tom now... at a point when he actually should.
Welcome back, folks! It's summertime, and while our TV options might not be as plentiful as they are in the fall, there's still some good stuff to watch. "Falling Skies," as we learned last year, has the potential to be that good stuff. It also has the potential to be a real yawner. The season two premiere, a two-hour event that combined the first two episodes, was a bit of both. In the first episode, we started off three months after Tom got on that spaceship with the alien leader.

The South has evolved y'all. Ok, maybe that's speaking a bit prematurely, but on a recent visit to Music City, AKA Nashville, TN, what I found beyond the deep fried everything, was a city on the verge of being socially awesome for the gay community.

Nashville bills itself as Music City–now it's trying to lock in the future of that status. The city ...
In Nashville, nearly 30 people have died, and the damage seems almost impossible to calculate or comprehend. Let's all do our part to help Nashville and its people keep the music playing forever more.
Am I going to be moving there anytime in the near future? Probably not. But do I want to go back? Absolutely!
