Zamboanga City, Philippines

|58 kg (128 lb)
|Coached by
|Antonio Agustin Jr
Medal record
Hidilyn Diaz[1] (born February 20, 1991 in Zamboanga City, Philippines) is a Filipino weightlifter. She competed in the 2008 Summer Olympics and was also the youngest competitor in the women's 58-kg category in that same Olympics.[2] She was a bronze medalist in the 2007 SEA Games in Thailand and achieved 10th place at the 2006 Asian Games in the 53-kilogram class. A student of the Universidad de Zamboanga, she also won two golds and one silver in the Asian Youth/Junior Weightlifting Championship held in Jeonju, South Korea.[3]
2008 Summer Olympics[edit]
Diaz was selected as a wild card entry to the Summer Olympics by the Philippine Weightlifting Association in early 2008.[4] She is the first female weightlifter to compete for the Philippines in the Olympics, and the second weightlifter overall (the first being her coach, Ramon Solis).[5] Competing in the women's 58-kg class, 17-year-old Diaz lifted 85-kg in the snatch and 107-kg in the clean and jerk for a 192-kg total, breaking the Philippine record that she herself set at the 2007 Southeast Asian Games.[6] Although she placed second to last in a field of 12 weightlifters, her performance was praised and considered promising for her age. Philippine Sports Commission Chairman William Ramirez once commented that she competed there to gain valuable experience and predicted that she would be a strong contender in future competitions.[7]

Weybridge HeathThe Heath comprises 47 acres (190,200 square metres) of lowland heathland that runs from the deep cutting of the South Western Main Line railway eastwards to Cobbetts Hill. To the west of the railway line, much of the original heathland is now occupied by Heathside School and Brooklands College.
Thames ConservancyIn August 1866 the Conservancy inspected works between Oxford and Windsor and in October settled a table of tolls.[11]Bell Weir Lock had collapsed in June and was rebuilt the following year.[12] In 1868 tolls were placed on three of the four locks then above Oxford - St John's, Buscot and Pinkhill Locks. Rushey Lock was omitted and there were no tolls on the weirs. This reflects the poor state of navigation above Oxford.[13] Some of the old locks on the rest of the river were still wooden pens and these were gradually renewed or replaced. Works completed in 1869 included the rebuilding of Romney Lock and the addition of a boat slide at Teddington. In 1870 Hambleden Lock and Benson Lock were rebuilt, followed by Day's Lock in 1871 and Godstow Lock in 1872.[14] In the 1870s it is recorded that Teddington weir collapsed twice causing enormous damage.[15]
Walton BridgeThe second bridge was designed by James Paine and constructed of brick and stone in 1788. This bridge was painted by Turner in 1805 following his sketching tour of the river Thames and Wey at that time. The bridge lasted much longer that its predecessor, but part of it collapsed in 1859. A ferry crossing resumed until the completion of the third bridge in 1864.
Thames ConservancyA Thames Conservancy Act of 1932 Act dealt with construction of jetties and landing stages on the river[32]

Gap Between Vent and Dome
I finally finished my dome and I am ready to start my vent. I have been doing some research and noticed that some builders leave a gap between the dome and the vent. The idea, as I understand it, is to create a thermal break between the two.
Not sure if that thought is valid or if leaving a gap will compromise the structural integrity of the chimney, which in my case will be a Duravent with an anchor plate.
Once again I turn to the Forno Bravo forum for your thoughts and feedback.
Fire away......pun intended :)
Re: Gap Between Vent and Dome
If you insulate between the the entry and the dome then you are essentially building two separate structures. In my opinion it is better to insulate the entry from the outer arch so the whole inner dome and entry are one and free to move while the outer decorative arch is tied to the outer shell.A compromise is to use some insulating firebrick between the entry and the dome, but these lack strength and won't provide a thermal expansion joint.
Re: Gap Between Vent and Dome
On my build the complete entry arch is separated from the dome. There is a half inch gap between the brickwork. I worked some of the external vermicrete into this gap but most of it is an air gap. There is also a layer of vermicrete between the dome floor and the floor of the entry. The first pic below shows the vermicrete thermal break (it is the rough textured material which sits just outside the dome arch). I have tiled over this break so it nice and smooth and cannot be seen on the completed oven (see the second picture).
Re: Gap Between Vent and Dome
Thanks for the pics.
I sometimes get hung up on the science of this whole project. Looking at what you did there is not a "true" thermal break as the heat can conduct through insulating concrete and the tiles, but then again your design must stop some heat flow
How much cooler is your vent compared to the dome?
Also, to David's point, since you now have two seperate structures did you have any stability issues with your chimney? I was looking to install a 4' length of Duravent pipe and am concerned that the vent not being connected will not give its base enough stability.
Then again, perhaps this is all over thinking on my part as usual....
Doug O
Re: Gap Between Vent and Dome
Yes there will be some heat conducted through the tiles, but as that layer is only approx 15mm thick in total the amount of heat lost through this route is greatly reduced.
I haven't measured the actual temperatures on the floor, but there is a noticable difference when placing my hand across that break area.
Re: Gap Between Vent and Dome
I'd imagine that you should be able to hold your hand against the entry even when the oven is SERIOUSLY HOT. Thus you keep the heat only where you want it. I like your solultion with the tiles overlapping the vermicrete.
Re: Gap Between Vent and Dome
I am cutting my vent bricks as I am typing this, lunch break...
Very interesting Kaz. You've definitely given me some food for thought. I suspect I could even rip the fire bricks to 1/2" and accomplish the same thing as the tile. My floor is inside my oven so I can rework if necessary.

Counties Get Money For Healthy Community Programs
The La Crosse area already has a variety of programs designed to get people to become more healthy...
Now, some of those programs are getting a healthy dose of money from a statewide group. Jennie Melde from the La Crosse YMCA says the 'Transform Wisconsin' funding will help the 'Y' staff lead kids to healthier habits, and allow collaborative efforts with the Boys and Girls Clubs to continue. The La Crosse County health department and the Healthy Living Collaboration will get close to half-a-million dollars in money from the Transform Wisconsin project. That group is providing money to about 30 communities around the state.

Ok, well the way that everyone does their hair at my school is by curling it in ringletts and leaving it down. It looks really cute. As for make up, go to a beauty counter in a department store a couple hours before the dance. Go to a counter like Clinique if you want something natural or MAC if you want something a little more upbeat. Describe to them your dress and they'll do something that compliments you AND ur dress, and you get a pro to do ur makeup for free!!!! What's not to love?

For your eyes you can do light blue sparkly eyeshadow. You could also do silver eyeshadow or light blue and have the silver start at the top part of the blue eyeshadow and go up to the eyebrows and kind of around your eye. It looks really pretty especially if you have a little line underneath your bottom eyelashes. Use some black eyeliner all the way around your eyes except for the top. Make sure you get the corners though =c). For your lips I would just experiment with lipgloss ((not necessarily lipstick because I don't think it would look very good with your look)) you have, especially if you have some light pinks or "bare" or "naked" colors.. which is sort of like a brown but really pretty. Cheeks- a light brown blush would look great! And for your hair.. I'm not sure if I can explain if very well but its where you have the top front half of your head pulled back in little sections, each about the size of your first of middle finger. Then it's tied back and the ponytail is curled. It also looks cute if you curl random pieces of hair on the bottom half part of your head. Throwing in some glitter wouldn't hurt. Hope I helped! Leave me one in my inbox if I can do anything else for you! =c)

Photo By RODGER BOSCH/StringerPhysicist Stephen Hawking recorded a special 70- minute video for Houston after his doctors would not allow him to cross the Atlantic to lecture here.
Stephen Hawking, a brilliant theoretical physicist and putatively the world's most famous living scientist, is too ill to travel to Houston from Britain for a public lecture.
Doctors would not allow trans-Atlantic travel for the 71-year-old, who has lived for half a century with a motor neuron disease.
"He is in frail condition, and his doctors have very specifically forbid him from traveling across the Atlantic Ocean," said Scott Brogan, the founding and executive director of the Brilliant Lecture Series, which organized the talk to be given Tuesday night at Jones Hall.
"He feels horrible about not being able to be here personally."
Brogan said ticket-holders were contacted Wednesday afternoon about the change in Hawking's condition. Although refunds are being offered to the sold-out lecture, Brogan is hopeful that the 2,900 who bought tickets will choose to attend because Hawking recorded a special video message for the city.
As late as last week the physicist had held out hope of traveling to Houston, but when his doctors issued a final decision, Brogan and filmmakers traveled to Cambridge to record a 70-minute video.
"The message offers unprecedented insight into his personal life, his childhood, his reflections on his career, his disability and in part his unique celebrity," Brogan said. "He's at a stage of his life where I think he wants to share and to inspire people, now more than ever."
Brogan said the video, filmed in Hawking's Cambridge office, offers a behind-the-scenes look at how the scientist lives with his disease and the technology he uses to communicate while being able to move only his eyes.
Celebrity status
Hawking is known in the scientific community for his contributions to the understanding of black holes and, more fundamentally, the general nature of the universe.
Publicly he is regarded in the mold of Albert Einstein as both a brilliant scientist and iconic figure, for both his wheelchair and his synthetic, computerized voice. He is one of the few scientists who has become a bonafide celebrity, appearing on such television shows as "The Simpsons" and "Star Trek" as well as authoring bestselling books.
Later in life he has also been a frequent visitor to Texas.
Thanks to a relationship with Houston billionaire George Mitchell, Hawking has previously made a handful of trips to the Houston area, most recently giving a sold-out public lecture in College Station in 2011.
Before the cancellation of his current trip was disclosed, Mayor Anise Parker announced that Tuesday will be "Stephen Hawking Day" in Houston. The Mayor's Office for People with Disabilities is a co-sponsor of the lecture.
'Rare opportunity'
The illness that had hospitalized Hawking earlier this year caused the physicist to cancel a previous speaking engagement in early February in the Ecuadorean city of Guayaquil.
Brogan said he was surprised at Hawkings' openness in discussing his personal life in the recorded message.
Hawking spoke of growing up, his family life, talked of being a less-than-dedicated student, his two marriages and his disability, the lecture organizer said.
"I think - I hope - that patrons can not only understand and appreciate this situation, but will find it is even more so a rare opportunity at this stage," Brogan said.

6/29 Rumson Run Completed on Friday Night
By Brian Deakyne
RUMSON – Even without great weather, the Rumson-Fair Haven Run brought out hundreds of runners and spectators on Friday night.
The 5K, which was rescheduled to Friday from June 7 due to inclement weather, featured 280 runners, that all finished in less than 46 minutes.
Jason Gers, 39, of Monmouth Beach finished in first place with a 16:54 time. Max Sparshatt, 22, of Rumson, finished in second at 17:01 and Patrick Hill, 21, of Middletown rounded out the top three with a 17:14 finish.
True Fays, 38, of Middletown was the first female to finish at 19:44. She finished in 10 overall. Jessica Cini, 43, of Fair Haven was the second female finisher with a time of 19:45 and Dawn Wilcox, 40, of Little Silver was the third female finisher at 20:26.
The race, which began at 7:15 p.m., avoided the late-evening thunderstorms that were threatening throughout the day although runners had to deal with severe humidity throughout the run.

Savvy consumers already know that when considering a product advertised with the word "free," it often pays to read the fine print. In a sign that battles over pay-TV customers are heating up, Comcast (NSDQ: CMCSA) has filed a lawsuit saying a new DirecTV (NYSE: DTV) promotion stretches that word too far.
DirecTV launched an advertising campaign stating that its popular NFL Sunday Ticket package is available at "no extra charge." However, the company only gives that package away when customers sign up for a two-year contract, so Comcast is saying that it isn't truly "free."
In fact, Comcast says that the "free" claim is "an outright lie," because "the offer requires a two-year contract with hefty termination fees for early cancellation, with the NFL Sunday Ticket service automatically renewing in the second year at full price."
DirecTV typically offers NFL Sunday Ticket for $66.99 per month.
Of course, if asking for a two-year contract with a "free" product is an "outright lie," it would seem like a whole lot of cell phone arrangements and other promotions could be in trouble. And DirecTV's offers-even the one featured in the complaint-do feature fine print explaining that the promotion is only available with a 2-year commitment to a certain package.
Comcast also says that DirecTV is disparaging cable systems like Comcast in its ads, as well. "One DirecTV advertisement contains the literally false claim that cable subscribers only can view a single NFL game each Sunday during the NFL season," write its lawyers in the complaint, which was filed in federal court in Chicago (and is embedded below).
Some of the specific ads Comcast objects to include ones where former football player Deion Sanders is featured saying things like "only DirecTV gets you every game every Sunday." An ad in the Philadelphia area shows an actor wearing a Philadelphia Eagles jersey who says "I can't watch my Eagles here… I've got cable." That claim is "literally, clearly and unambiguously false," write Comcast lawyers, "as Philadelphia Eagles games are of course broadcasted in that area."
A DirecTV spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment, but told Bloomberg that Comcast's complaint was without merit and that DirecTV will vigorously defend the case.
A Comcast spokeswoman portrayed the lawsuit as an action taken to protect consumers, calling the ad campaign "false, deceptive and misleading." Comcast had asked DirecTV to take the advertisements down, she said, but the company refused. "So, we have filed a complaint to make them comply with the law and advertise fairly to consumers."

Pro C# 2010 and the .NET 4 Platform
Apress, May 12, 2010 - Computers - 1752 pages
The first edition of this book was released at the 2001 Tech-Ed conference in Atlanta, Georgia. At that time, the .NET platform was still a beta product, and in many ways, so was this book. This is not to say that the early editions of this text did not have merit—after all, the book was a 2002 Jolt Award finalist and it won the 2003 Referenceware Excellence Award. However, over the years that author Andrew Troelsen spent working with the common language runtime (CLR), he gained a much deeper understanding of the .NET platform and the subtleties of the C# programming language, and he feels that this fifth edition of the book is as close to a "final release" as he's come yet.
This new edition has been comprehensively revised and rewritten to make it accurately reflect the C# 4 language specification for the .NET 4 platform. You'll find new chapters covering the important concepts of dynamic lookups, named and optional arguments, Parallel LINQ (PLINQ), improved COM interop, and variance for generics.
If you're checking out this book for the first time, do understand that it's targeted at experienced software professionals and/or graduate students of computer science (so don't expect three chapters on iteration or decision constructs!). The mission of this text is to provide you with a rock-solid foundation in the C# programming language and the core aspects of the .NET platform (assemblies, remoting, Windows Forms, Web Forms, ADO.NET, XML web services, etc.). Once you digest the information presented in these 25 chapters, you'll be in a perfect position to apply this knowledge to your specific programming assignments, and you'll be well equipped to explore the .NET universe on your own terms.What you'll learn
This book is for anyone with some software development experience who is interested in the new .NET Framework 4 and the C# language. Whether you are moving to .NET for the first time or are already writing applications on .NET 2.0 or .NET 3.5, this book will provide you with a comprehensive grounding in the new technology and serve as a complete reference throughout your coding career.Table of Contents

Kitchen accessories can provide you with innovative ways to make your kitchen a more functional space. Your kitchen is one of the most important rooms in your home, as it is where all of the meals are cooked, family members gather to talk about their day, and arts and crafts are done at the table. You need your kitchen to look beautiful and inviting, but it also needs to be functional. Here are the top 5 kitchen accessory ideas that will help make your kitchen more usable and organized.
A Lazy Susan is a tray that rotates for maximum ease of use. These can be built into a kitchen cabinet giving you more space and functionality. A Lazy Susan is great for storing seasonings, napkins, kitchen accessories and other items that need to be accessed easily. Many people place these rotating trays on their kitchen table or inside of their pantry.
Drawer organizers can be built into your drawers to help separate silverware, kitchen accessories, and other utensils with ease. Without drawer organizers, your kitchen accessories will be jumbled together and things are harder to find. During a kitchen remodeling project, you could also have these kitchen accessories / organizers built-in for ease of use.
Adding a recycling bin to your pantry is a great way to save space and to easily collect items to be recycled. During any kitchen remodeling project, you can have a bin built-in directly to your kitchen, either in the panty or in a kitchen cabinet. Then you have the bin that you need, but it does not take up valuable space in your kitchen.
Kitchen cabinet pull out accessories and shelving make getting to the things at the back of cabinets or pantry easier. Instead of stretching your arms as far as they can go to reach kitchen accessories in your cabinet, all you have to do is pull the shelf out and grab what you need. You will be more inclined to use the storage space that you have in the far back areas, adding even more functionality to your kitchen.
Tip out trays utilize the space in front of the sink, above the lower cabinet. These small trays / accessories are the ideal spot to store sponges and other items you need close to the sink. Cut down on the clutter surrounding the sink with these useful kitchen accessories.
Kitchen Solvers also offers a variety of storage solution designs and products for your cabinets, drawers, shelves, and corner cabinets to maximize storage and give you optimum versatility. And be sure to research kitchen remodeling costs and their return on investment if you may be considering a remodeling project as part of your kitchen functionality or utilization project.
How can we help?
"I choose Kitchen Solvers to retrofit my existing kitchen cabinets with new doors as well as the installation of four new cabinets and a breakfast nook. I am very pleased with the results; particularly with the curved walnut cupboard doors you matched to my original kitchen when other said they couldn't do it. I am particularly impressed with the workmanship of your carpenter and how flexible you remained. You truly are the Kitchen Solver! "

Nairobi — Dams that produce 60 per cent of Kenya's electricity may soon be no more.
As forests continue to be plundered and the dams' water catchment areas disappear, the survival of the Seven Forks hydroelectric stations is increasingly uncertain.
Yesterday, Kenya electricity generating company (KenGen) officials said encroachment on land adjacent to the dams and continuous clearing of the vegetation had increased the level of silt and reduced the dams' life span.
Led by environment officer Obed Kariuki and communication officer Justus Waimiri, KenGen officials took journalists on a tour of the dams' buffer zones, where communities have massively destroyed vegetation.
They have cleared more than 1,000 acres of indigenous forest, leaving the ground bare.
They have also cut down more than 15 acres of forest established by KenGen to check soil erosion.
The most affected are the Kamburu and Gitaru dams' buffer zones.
The situation has been worsened by the recent burning of some five acres of exotic forest in the Kyamondia area near Gitaru Dam. Arsonists set the forest on fire, destroying 40,000 trees.
Massive destruction of vegetation cover has also taken place in the Kyuna, Kivaa and Kaira areas near Kamburu Dam.
Mr Kariuki said soil erosion caused the silt that adversely affects power generation machines.

President Michel Sleiman attends a Cabinet session at the Presidential Palace in Baabda, east of Beirut, Monday, Dec. 10, 2012. (The Daily Star/Mohammad Azakir)
BEIRUT: President Michel Sleiman signed Saturday a decree that would delay parliamentary elections by a period of one week, Baabda Palace sources told The Daily Star.
Sleiman's move comes a day after Interior Minister Marwan Charbel submitted a draft decree to the Cabinet's Secretariat seeking a delay of the elections from June 9 to June 16.
In March, Sleiman and caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati signed a decree calling for holding the elections on June 9 based on the law in effect, otherwise known as the "1960 law."
Delaying the date of the elections ultimately extends the deadline for filing applications by a period of one week. The deadline for submissions had been April 11.
Only about two dozen people have registered to run in the elections as a result of opposition from both the March 8 and March 14 camps of holding the elections under the "1960 law."
Last week, the country's main Maronite political parties vowed not to submit their candidacies under the law in effect. Their decision came days after the Progressive Socialist Party announced its members would submit applications of candidates.
Baabda sources also said Saturday that during the parliamentary consultations to name the next prime minister, Sleiman stressed to lawmakers the needed to agree on a new electoral law given that he had constitutional duties he needed to abide by regarding the elections.

In the run up to the three-week Grand Champion finals series there is not much to choose between the top two teams of the Hong Kong Rugby Football Union Premiership League.
With Newedge Club just one point ahead of Abacus Kowloon both sides still have to play matches against bottom of the table SCAA Causeway Bay Rams. Club also plays fourth-placed Verizon HK Scottish; while, Kowloon will play ONEwork's Valley, currently in fifth position. Abacus Kowloon may have a slight edge as they play both of their last two matches at home; Newedge Club, on the other hand, travel to Shek Kip Mei for their match next week against HK Scottish.
Leighton Asia HKCC (Hong Kong Cricket Club), with only one game left to play, are now virtually out of the running for the top spot after losing their match against Abacus Kowloon last Saturday (Jan 26). The top two teams would have to lose both of their matches for HKCC to take top honours. However, finishing in third place should make little difference in the Quarter Finals although on paper the Semi-final match might be a little more difficult.
HKCC vs Kowloon
HKCC against Kowloon match, played at Aberdeen Sports Ground, was the star match of the day as the two teams were equal-second in the Premiership on 33-points at kick-off – five points behind leaders Newedge Club who had no game.
Ian Wilson, coach for HKCC, talking with The Epoch Times before the match set out his feelings for the game.
"Yes, a big game today against Kowloon and I hope we can put up a good performance after narrowly losing out to them last time," Wilson said.
"Obviously they have quite a strong pack up front, but hopefully we can match that. We have some exciting backs as well and we hope we can get those into the game through the mid-field and out wide and score a few tries today," he explained.
Asked about the condition of the team, he explained how the team is preparing for the finals.
"Everyone is fit and looking sharp," Wilson said. "A few of the guys in the Sevens Squads have been training hard and the other guys around the club have been building up towards the Championships as well just trying to build some momentum going into that".
HKCC were certainly diligent in their warm-up going through a lot of different routines
"Just really lifting the intensity before the game" Wilson explained. "The guys know what they are doing at this time in the season and hopefully putting into practice what we hope to carry through into the game," he added.
But, when the game started, HKCC had an early setback.
Abacus Kowloon came storming out of the blocks and Tom Bury burst through two HKCC players to score. The try was converted by Chris McAdam and Kowloon were seven points up after the first two minutes of the match – far from the assessment that Wilson had hoped for in his pre-match plan.
A penalty to Kowloon from near the half way line was successfully slotted over by Elliott O'Brien making the score 10-0.
But HKCC weren't done with yet. A try near the corner flag by HKCC's No. 2 Jamie Tsang pulled the score back to 10-5, but the conversion was missed. However, Jamie Tsang scored again near the corner flag for HKCC near the half hour mark, to make the score level at 10-10.
Another penalty conversion by Elliott O'Brien on 36 minutes took Kowloon into the break at 13-10.
Still, with all to play for in the second half, Kowloon were looking the stronger and went on to win the match 28-13 with two more tries, one conversion and a penalty.

Gaining entry into the most prestigious secondary schools such as The Bluecoat and Belvedere is becoming more and more difficult, as ever increasing numbers of students compete for a limited number of places.
Most entrance exams consist of four separate sections which aim to test the candidates' literacy, numeracy and verbal and non-verbal reasoning skills. Many of the skills tested, like those which are required in the non-verbal reasoning section, fall outside of the mainstream Key Stage 2 curriculum. For many students, therefore, the entrance exam will be the first time that they will be confronted by questions of their kind.
Indeed, for most children, taking an 11+ will be the first time that they experience the pressure of taking an examination which is not just a simple assessment of their level, but has important consequences in terms of their future education. Academy 1nternational can help your child to hone practical skills and techniques which will be of immense benefit during the examination.
The Exam Preparation course consists of an initial ten hour block of sessions, usually taken at a rate of one per week. Further sessions can be arranged, should you and the tutor feel that your child would benefit.
To ensure a greater chance of success, we always recommend that pupils begin their preparation at least six months before the examination. This allows the tutor sufficient time to identify and address any problems or difficulties which the pupil may have with any particular aspects of the learning requirements for the examination.

I am going to start this post by apologizing right now- obviously my picking Jeff Gordon for the Championship has thwarted him somewhat. Forgive me Jeff Gordon, team 24 and all your fans. I promise from this point forward to root for Joey Logano (ok not really) as 2014 Sprint Cup champion.
Okay now back to business. Between knowing that Tony had qualified 28th and that he had spun out during the last five minutes of final practice I admit I didn't think this would be our breakout race of the season. What I didn't bargain for was the fact that I was ready to throw Tony's crew chief under the (proverbial- for some reason I feel that I need to clarify this) bus by the midway point of the race. As you may know, my beloved readers, I am an eternal optimist when it comes to team 14. I am the one always saying, "Well, we'll get 'em next week." (more…)
"It's just a fun track. It just seems like it's always been a fun driver's track. Your car has to work well there, but when you get to racing guys – you're trying to outbreak them, trying to get your car to turn and you struggle for forward bite. It's just got a little bit of everything the drivers look for to have a good race." — Tony Stewart, Pre-Race New Hampshire Team Release

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Where Can You Get Dana Wilkey's $25,000 Sunglasses?
Did you hear? Gold python is the new black. In Season 2, Episode 5 of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, new cast member Dana Wilkey arrived at Adrienne Maloof's barbecue in a pair of sunglasses she just had to show off. If we spent $25,000 on those suckers, we'd be telling everyone we crossed paths with about our 4-carat shades, too!
Fashion blog Karenly Kouture identified the glasses as "Limited Edition Sama Pyramid of Diamonds" by ILORI. So what makes them so expensive? The shades feature 18K gold frames rimmed with 1.75 carats of white diamonds. And get this: Even the lenses are golden — they're micro-coated with gold.
It seems Dana's in royal company: Princess Caroline is said to own two pairs herself. (Okay, so she isn't exactly royalty, but Dana was wearing a tiara when Kyle Richards and Taylor Armstrong payed a visit to her mansion.)
You can purchase your very own pair of Dana Wilkey's stunner shades at one of ILORI's many boutiques. And in case you don't feel like splurging, ILORI has a collection of brag-worthy sunglasses that range from $250 and under.

With aging transmission and distribution infrastructure, as well as hostile host communities,Ejiofor Alike writes that power generation targets will not translate to actual supply
When former President Olusegun Obasanjo assumed power in 1999, Nigeria's electricity generating capacity hovered between 1,500megawatts (mw) and 1,900mw.
Worried by the epileptic power situation his administration inherited from the military regime, Obasanjo embarked on the construction of gas-fired power generating plants under the National Integrated Power Projects (NIPP), with a target to hit 10,000megawatts of electricity by 2007.
The administration also started building new plants for the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN).
However, when Obasanjo's tenure expired in May 2007, the country's generation was around 3,000mw, far below the 10,000mw target.
Shortly on assumption of office in 2007, the late President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua had set a generation target of 6,000mw by the end of 2009, threatening also to declare a state of emergency in the power sector.
But few days to the December 31, 2009 deadline for the realisation of the target, the administration made a U-turn.
Speaking at the 15th session of the Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) held in Abuja in December 2009, the Chief Economic Adviser to the late President, Alhaji Tanimu Yakubu, stated that going by all permutations, the deadline would not be met.
"We may not achieve 100 per cent of the target. We have been able to achieve 5,200MW so far. As I am talking to you now, 35MW is being added to the national grid and another 100MW will be added in the next two weeks," he said.
Aware of the political implications of failing to meet targets, President Goodluck Jonathan on assumption of office in 2010, had refused to set target for his administration.
However, two years later, the then Minister of Power, Prof. Bart Nnaji, had at the Nigeria Power Sector Retreat held in Abuja at the beginning of 2012, projected that power generation would hit over 6,000 megawatts by the end of the year.
He however noted that the only challenge that could hinder the realisation of the target was non-availability of gas.
"If the gas is available we will be generating 5,600mw today. And we expect to add at least 1,000 megawatts to the grid. That brings us to over 6,000megawatts," he said.
By the end of December 2012, the federal government celebrated a peak of 4,356.9megawatts, which was below the 6,000mw target.
With the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), claiming recently that it had exceeded its target for gas-to-power aspirations; it was not yet clear why power generation hovered just around 4,000mw throughout 2012.
The target has since gone up to 10,000mw with even the Federal Ministry of Water Resources saying that it would achieve 95 per cent development of hydropower potential capable of producing up to 10,000mw by 2015.
Weak Distribution, Transmission Infrastructure
As the various successive governments were setting generating targets and concentrating on the construction of new power generating stations, no conscious effort was made to replace or rehabilitate weak and aging distribution and transmission facilities.
The implication was that even if the targets were realisable, the distribution and transmission lines would not be able to carry the new load.
President Goodluck Jonathan had acknowledged in the power roadmap he unveiled in Lagos in August 2010, that the transmission network was so weak that "even with the completion of the extant PHCN and NIPP transmission projects, for which funds have already been provided, the gap between generation capacity and the capacity of the transmission grid is expected to widen considerably over the next three years."
He, however, stated that in order to ensure that the power generated was not left stranded for lack of evacuation capacity, "there would be a need for a 30 per cent increase in the 'true deliverable' transformation capacity of the country's 330Kv transmission network between July 2010 and April 2011, above its current value of 4,500mw equivalent."
He noted that in view of the weakness of the network, it was unlikely that an increase of such magnitude would be realisable within the period.
President Jonathan said government's projected target would be a rise of just over 10 per cent to about 5,000mw, adding that even though the total nominal 330Kv transformation capacity was projected to rise to 5,995mw equivalent.
In the medium term, up to December 2013, the roadmap had targeted a generating capacity of 14,000mw for the country.
Under this plan, 4,500mw would come from the existing PHCN plants; 4,775mw from NIPP and 3300mw from the Independent Power Producers (IPPs).
Though the NIPP projects initiated by Obasanjo involved generation, distribution and transmission projects, much emphasis was laid on generation targets.
Under the NIPP, 1,737 circuit kilometres of 330Kv lines and 940kilometres of 132Kv lines are being constructed as part of the transmission projects to evacuate generated power from all the power stations in the six geopolitical zones of the country.
These transmission projects, which are split into 105 different projects, include 40 transmission lines, 45 transmission sub-stations, 20 sub-station extensions and telecommunication protections infrastructures to cover all NIPP power plants and transmission lots.
The power, after generation has to be evacuated and willed to long distances and the power will not be useful until it is reduced to a level that can be used in homes and industries.
To actualise this, there are also ongoing NIPP distribution projects in all the 11 distribution companies (Discos) in the country.
These include 1,701 kilometres of 33KV lines; 2,666km of 11KV lines and 3,540MVA additional injection capacity.
At the initial stage of the project a total of 22,598No. 25KV and 50KV distribution transformers, including Completely Self-Protected (CSP) transformers were provided.
Current Challenges
A lot of challenges are currently facing the new projects, especially in the area of transmission.
For instance, over-loaded 33KV Lines at the existing facilities of the PHCN and tough conditions being given by the communities living along new transmission line routes are hampering the completion of the ongoing distribution and transmission projects.
One of the NIPP contractors told THISDAY that the early delivery of the projects was being hampered because the PHCN's existing 33Kv lines were too over-loaded to receive the new projects.
"33KV lines are supposed to receive NIPP projects from existing PHCN facilities. But when the distribution projects are ready to take supply from such facilities, we discover that the lines are over-loaded and therefore, we cannot take supply from such facilities. When you tell PHCN to upgrade their lines, they will say that there is no fund. There is also the issue of lack of 33KV facilities at the transmission stations across the country," he said.
It should be noted that unlike the existing PHCN power plants, which did not provide electricity supply to the host towns and villages, communities living within five kilometer- radius from the NIPP plants would be provided with free electricity supply.
With this provision, the construction of new power generating stations does not face many challenges.
However, unlike the communities around power stations, the communities living along the transmission line routes are making tough demands before contractors are allowed to construct the lines.
For instance, one community in Cross River State allegedly demanded a 40-year-old virgin before shrines could be removed for the construction of the transmission lines.
"What that translated to is the huge amounts of money that will be paid to them to enable them remove the shrine," said an NIPP contractor.
Even after compensations have been paid to some communities for the removal of shrines, new shrines emerge over-night along the transmission routes and the communities will give tough conditions for the new shrines to be removed.
There are also instances where local government authorities in some areas give "stop- work" orders to contractors handling some of the transmission projects.
Role of Presidential Taskforce
Apparently aware that the on-going projects could face challenges, the Federal Government had mandated the Presidential Taskforce on Power (PTFP) to ensure "engagement with other government agencies to resolve roadblocks and bottlenecks to facilitate progress of project."
The taskforce, currently headed by Mr. Becks Dagogo-Jacks, is also charged with the responsibility of "reporting and escalation of all identified risks that can work against schedules of project delivery and take actions to mitigate their impact."
The task force is also required to intervene in smoothening inter-agency interfaces as well as in observation and reporting of all process and system gaps in the management of power projects.
Unless the roadblocks and bottlenecks hampering the delivery of new transmission projects are resolved, the existing infrastructure is too weak to carry additional load arising from the actualisation of the new generation targets.

Comment: interesting synchronicity (Score 2) 375 375
Just fifteen minutes ago I realized that my script to refactor the primary file server (newly converted to ZFS) into more sensible datasets had an irritating detail wrong (a path element was being duplicated in some paths).
I said to myself "oh, I'll just roll that whole thing back to the snapshot I made 30 minutes ago".
Then I go "zfs list -t snapshot" and discover that my snapshot was holding onto 0 GB because I forgot the -r switch to make the snapshot recursive.
Oh, well. By some impossible-to-separate mixture of good management and good fortune, it turns out I had a set of (different) snapshots from the last two days covering all datasets in questions. I lost very little work (only scripts were executed against these datasets and I still have all the scripts).
My real screw up?
Back in my second co-op workterm job, I managed not to notice that a system I was backing up changed the order of the listed drives between two very similar screen requests that I made almost immediately one after the other. Unfortunately, on the second pass I selected the active system drive as the recipient of the system backup, picking from the position in the menu where the desired destination drive had appeared moments before.
I had become accustomed to my home system being deterministic in the order it listed things. My bad.
This is back at the very beginnings of the 4.77 MHz era, so my PC was actually not yet what we now know as a "PC" (its father had an S-100, and its mother had a itty-bitty CRT).
Thirty years later I still can't type dd of=/dev/ada3 without making three trips to the metaphorical bathroom.
Whenever I type a disk-level dd command, I leave the sudo off, until after the third proof-read and several console consultations in which at least two different programs give me the same view of the drive name.
In dollar costs I couldn't say. In psychic cost, it's indelibly etched onto my permanent record.
I had a co-worker once (EEng) who claimed that as a junior intern during the late 1990s back when laser gear for fiber optics was all the rage, he routinely fried extremely delicate $2000 DUTs while the old hands just shrugged their shoulders. Dotcom dollars. Who really gave a fuck? It was considered barely worse than ruining a nice chair.

Manchester United adds to riches in deal with Russian airline Aeroflot
Jul 8, 2013, 1:27 PM EDT
Manchester United keeps getting richer and richer.
Today the Old Trafford club announced that they have sealed a deal with Russian airline Aeroflot to act as the club's official carrier.
Aeroflot replaces Turkish Airlines as the 13th global sponsor for United. While the specific numbers of the deal have yet to be released, a club source said that the new arrangement offered better terms for United.
Manchester United's Group managing director, Richard Arnold explained that the agreement was a landmark moment for United: "Today's announcement marks the club's first commercial venture in Russia, an expanding market we are keen to explore further."
As is the case more often than not, the deal is about reaching new audiences as Arnold noted that United has "close to 18 million followers in Russia, demonstrating the partnerships potential audience in the country."
The deal with Aeroflot also reflects the increasing investment of Russian companies in European soccer, with companies such as natural gas behemoth, Gazprom, already backing a number of European clubs such as Chelsea and Schalke 04, as well as the Champions League itself. "We believe that such a great club as Manchester United will help us to promote our brand worldwide," said Aeroflot CEO Vitaly Saveliev.
Interestingly, United will not actually fly on the Russian carrier as Aeroflot does not fly in and out of Manchester. Instead, Aeroflot will advise United on their travel arrangements throughout Europe and Asia, as well as promote itself on pitch-side advertising boards at Old Trafford.
The Aeroloft deal comes on the heels of a number of new sponsorship deals for United, which includes a seven year, $559 million dollar agreement that the club struck with General Motors to take over as the main shirt sponsor.
Adding to the intrigue for United supporters was Wayne Rooney's presence during the sponsorship ceremony. The striker has been the source of constant transfer speculation throughout the summer and has yet to confirm his desire to remain at United with Moyes at the helm.
