JACOB NEWKIRK: High school sports picking up local TV following
One thing I love about the move to digital television is the ability local stations have to bring us more local programming via their subchannels.
Among the programming that seems to be getting the most attention right now, especially as the Reitz and Memorial football teams have earned their way into the state championship title games that they'll play Saturday, have been the Indiana State football playoffs that WEHT-RTV25 has aired the past three Friday nights.
The games have been a lot of fun to watch, and as things of this nature often do, it all started with a simple idea.
WEHT sports director Lance Wilkerson, who has handled play-by-play announcing duties for all three games, tells me it all started with one very exciting matchup.
"The storylines with our first broadcast, Jasper at Reitz, were fantastic," Wilkerson explained. "Both teams were 11-0, they had ended each other's seasons the previous two seasons, and it was going to be a packed Reitz Bowl."
Against that backdrop, it seemed pretty obvious to those on the outside looking in that there was no way everyone who wanted to see the game could get in, so Wilkerson went to he station management and quickly got approval to televise the game.
"Once we got the green light, the entire station really rallied around making it the best telecast we could," he said.
The positive response to that game ensured that WEHT would air two more games: first the Heritage Hills/Memorial regional title game at Enlow Field, and then Reitz's 31-10 drubbing of top-ranked Indianapolis Cathedral.
In addition to televising the games, the station also streamed them live on their Web site, and I'm told that several thousand viewers watched each game that way.
Wilkerson said the viewing audience has shown their approval of the broadcasts.
"We have had over 200 e-mails from the community appreciating our efforts," he said. "I cannot emphasize enough how much that fuels us to continue to do games."
With basketball season rapidly approaching, I then asked if the response meant that WEHT would consider airing other sports as well.
"I really hope so," Wilkerson said. "We have some incredible talent in the Tri-State, and I think broadcasting games live is a great way to showcase our youth."
To gauge viewer interest in local sports on TV, I'm running a poll on my Web site, jakesdtvblog.com, that asks the following question: "If the local stations offered more live broadcasts of local sporting events, would you watch them?"
As of my Monday morning deadline, 30 voters had chimed in, with 19 (63 percent) saying "yes," eight (27 percent) saying "no," and three (10 percent) saying "maybe." I'll accept your votes until midnight Sunday and the results will be posted in next week's column.
n Finally, I'd like to give a little thanks of my own this Thanksgiving Day. I am thankful for all of you who read my column. Your kind words and desire to know what's going on drive me to make this column better week after week.
I'm also thankful to the Courier & Press for providing me with the opportunity to do that.
And finally, I am thankful for the good folks at our local stations, who have been very helpful to me as I work to bring you the latest TV news. Enjoy the holiday, and I'll see you again in this space next week.

I'm not sure of the original source for the following rules, but they were posted for a time on a bulletin board in the 43rd Tactical Fighter Squadron at Elmendorf AFB, Anchorage, Alaska, around 1980.
Some Rules of Air Fighting
Have a pretty good fighter. Put weapons on it that work. Have enough fuel to fight.
Know your enemy…his aircraft, his tactics and capabilities!
See him first! Cheat! Use surprise! Attack out of the sun! Sneak up on him!
Use superior numbers with mutually supporting tactics!
Fight your fight, not his.
Be a better fighter pilot than he is!
Discussion of the "rule" about using superior numbers inevitably led to the quality vs. quantity debate–was it preferable to fight flying the best damn fighter or a good fighter attacking in larger numbers? This usually led to somebody observing that quantity has its own quality, meaning a flight of excellent fighters can be overwhelmed by, and lose to, a much larger contingent of less capable fighters using well-thought-out tactics, particularly if the pilots on both sides possess comparable skills.
Which naturally leads into that last item on the list : Be a better fighter pilot than he is!
While I was flying T-33s in the Alaskan Air Command (1979-82), several of us "Lockheed Racer" pilots were qualified to conduct Dissimilar Air Combat Tactics training as aggressors against the command's F-4E Phantoms. But that's a story for another blog post…

The police in Imo have rescued a 78-year-old-woman from the clutches of kidnappers three of whom were arrested during the rescue operation.
The Imo State Commissioner of Police, Mr Adisa Bolanta, made the announcement in Owerri on Monday at the Police Command Headquarters where the suspects were paraded.
The victim, Mrs Christiana Okere, was kidnapped at her home in Ngor Okpala on the Dec. 18 and taken to Iguruta in Rivers State.
The victim was held in Iguruta until Dec. 28 when she was rescued by the Anti-kidnapping Unit of the state CID.
In the process, two men and one woman, suspected to have kidnapped the woman were arrested.
The commissioner said the suspects were arrested after a member of their gang disclosed the location of their hideout in Rivers.
The kidnappers had demanded a ransom of N20 million from the son of their victim before she would be released.
The police also paraded two men and a woman, suspected to be part of the gang responsible for the abduction of Nollywood actress, Nkiru Sylvanus.
Other suspects similarly paraded were those held in connection with the kidnapping of the four-year old daughter of the Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr Blyden Amajirionwu.
The commissioner warned against use of sirens by people not entitled to use sirens, saying that such vehicles would be impounded.

... I know what I think, but my boys think I'm paranoid!
Thirty days... 50 cents... that's more than a penny a day! May not sound like much, BUT, what if that held true for an entire year? Fifty cents a month times twelve and you've got SIX DOLLARS MORE per gallon for gas! Yep, that would be devastating.
Everybody has their opinion as to why the gas prices have shot up this past month... My opinion? Well, obviously the prices had to go down for the Presidential election... they always do... I guess that's so we are more inclined to vote for one candidate... or the other. And then they started creeping up... until now... oh well... too bad... election's over and we're back to paying through the nose! And, there's always some lame excuse as to why they increase... excuses I'm not buying! I'm just thinking that somebody is getting rich and the rest of us have to suffer!
AND... then there's my BIG pet peeve... WHY can't they make cars that get better gas mileage? WHY can't they make an affordable electric car that will also be dependable? As I like to tell folks... I had a 1984 Honda that got over 40 miles per gallon IN TOWN... why can't I find a car that will do that TODAY WHEN THE GAS PRICES ARE OUT OF CONTROL????? I'll tell you why, Somebody's getting rich by keeping efficient vehicles off the market for middle class America!
Now I'm trying to find a used car for my son that will be dependable and get decent gas mileage without paying an arm and a leg... all I can find are cars that only get 20 MPG city or 28 highway... not even acceptable! Yep, I'm frustrated!!!
So there, I've ranted and raved and I may be paranoid, but I know I'm not alone and I sure as heck wish I knew how to fix it... I'm more than a little tired of everything going up except my paycheck. Can you tell I went to the gas station this morning???
Any other opinions out there????

Boise, Idaho- The University of New Mexico women's tennis team travels to Boise, Idaho to take on the Broncos and Washington State. Play will begin Friday against Boise State at 2 PM and will continue Saturday at 10 AM against the Cougars.
Injuries have struck the Lobos early this season. Anya Villanueva was out against Colorado due to a back injury and Ashley Bonner sat against both Nevada and Kansas State. The two, and only juniors, look to both be back on the court this weekend.
"Boise is one of the toughest teams on our schedule and we are looking forward to the challenge," said head coach Roy Cañada. "We seem to be healthy now so we should be able to have everybody ready to go."
Scouting Boise State
Boise State is currently ranked 49th in the latest ITA poll. The Broncos are 4-4 overall and are coming off a 5-2 win over Colorado.
Boise State's Pichittra Thongdach, is ranked No. 27 in the singles ITA polls and holds a 4-4 record in spring play.
The Lobos have a 10-3 all-time record against Boise State.
Scouting Washington State
The Cougars are coming to New Mexico after dropping a 5-2 decision to Sacramento State. Washington State is 6-3 overall this spring.
"Saturday we will face Washington State who we beat last year in a very close match," said Canada. "I am sure they will be gunning for some revenge."
The Lobos (1-6) have a 7-3 all-time record against the Cougars.
Academic Success
The grade point average (GPA) for the University of New Mexico's athletic program for the fall 2009 semester was release and the New Mexico women's tennis team came out on to with a GPA of 3.79. The 3.79 GPA earned by the women's tennis team was the highest GPA of all 11 sports.
Serving Up A Cure
The University of New Mexico men's and women's tennis teams are partnering up with the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Association (ALSA) to help in the fight against ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease. The tennis teams will begin a season long campaign, Serving Up A Cure, this weekend to help raise money for ALS research. Serving Up A Cure will allow people to get involved in a couple of different ways. Donors can pledge money per match or per set won for either the men's or women's tennis teams. Forms to make donations and instructions for submitting them can be found at GOLOBOS.com on either the men's or women's tennis page. All donations will be sent to Roy Cañada, women's tennis head coach.
ALS affects adults of all ages, sexes and races. Every 90 minutes someone is diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's Disease and every 90 minutes someone dies from this disease. There in no known cause or cure and the cost for an ALS patient is $200,000 per year.
Please help the men's and women's tennis teams fight against ALS. For more information contact Roy Cañada at email@example.com or at 925-5780.

I've been playing around with a lot of homemade cleaning and laundry recipes over the past year – some have worked amazingly well and others haven't been so great. Today I have a great recipe for an all-natural wood cleaner and polish that is amazing. This cleaner is the best of both worlds – it really cleans AND polishes. But even better than how well it works is the smell. The yummy smell had my kids swarming me as I made it and asking to help me dust (I'm not kidding and of course I said yes!). This is a simple recipe with three ingredients – essential oils, fractionated coconut oil (liquid form, this can also be used as a carrier for your oils), and distilled (free of impurities) water.
Essential Oil Wood Cleaner and Polish:
10 drops wild orange or citrus bliss essential oil (optional)
30 drops lemon essential oil
1/3 cup (2 2/3 ounces) coconut (fractionated) oil or grapeseed oil
1/2 cup (4 ounces) distilled water
Start by measuring your water and oil and mixing them together in the container you'll be storing the mixture in.
Then add your essential oils.
Give it a little shake and start cleaning and polishing the wood in your home.
I use a microfiber cloth to dust & apply the polish. I just pour or spray a little bit of this cleaner on my microfiber cloth and start dusting away. You can make your own homemade wood cleaner with pure essential oils. It's very cost efficient and all natural. Just one bottle of pure essential oils makes several bottles of wood cleaner. Best of all, its non toxic. Visit doTERRA's website at www.mydoterra.com/abowlfulloflemons to learn out more about the pure essential oils I use.

Love the container you used. Where did you find it? Thank you for all your great tips!
It's from this set from Full Circle:
xo, Becky
I made my first doTerra purchase the other day Toni! I'm excited to receive my first order! Started out small, toothpaste,chapstick,lemon and on guard oils. I think i'll try this next. I've been doing a lot of diy home cleaners lately and this one is on my list!
Can't wait to hear how you like them! You should share on your blog and link up to my tuesday link parties.
Do you think this would work well on a wood floor. We recently moved into a new home with gorgeous dark wood floors and I am trying to find something that will clean and polish without all the crazy chemicals.
Hi Felicia!
I wouldn't suggest using it on the wood floors because the coconut oil might make it too slippery. I use vinegar, water and essential oils on my hardwoods and they look great!
xo, Becky
The link for your info about the essential oils you use isn't work. Would love to read more!
Its working now… http://www.mydoterra.com/abowlfulloflemons/
Hi, I love this recipe to clean wood and the jar is wonderful. I went online to full circle to look for it and it's not longer there. Do you know if someone carries it or the name?
Can I use coconut oil from Trader Joe's?
This is great! Thank you for sharing this information. Will try this.
Does it have to be fractionated coconut oil or can I just use plain 100% coconut oil?
So, this would be ok to use on a piano? I have a piano that was handed down to me from my grandmother and dusting it just doesn't do the trick…. I want it to shine and be beautiful!
Just cleaned my piano with it and I have a beautiful shine. Probably the best it's ever looked.
Wonderful! Thank you so much for posting and sharing this with the world. I SOOO appreciate and enjoy this blog.
Made this up and used it this afternoon. Changed lemon for bergamot (which is still lemony) and used organic coconut oil.
You need a tiny amount, or it can leave an oily film, which doesn't absorb into the wood. If this happens (as I was a little too excited to try out my new cleaner), just use some paper towel to get rid of the excess.
Thank you!
Can you use olive oil ?
Would this work to clean the sticky grim on kitchen cabinets or do you have something else to suggest? I don't want to have to refinish them, or use something that is harsh enough to remove the finish or sealant. Also I need something for removing smoke film from furniture. Would this work?
I cant wait to try this… I also would like to know can I apply this on my hardwood floors as well?
Would you put lavender oil in for the scent rather than orange?
Can you use this recipe on all wood, like entertainment center, table and bedroom furniture? Thanks!
OXOX- *smiles*

Hey kids, I've lurked here for a while but haven't posted much if anything. My mate's blog is here, but I might just use a ride report instead. http://overlandtoafrica.blogspot.com/
London to Dover
Anyway, we left London on Thursday and headed to the port of Dover for the "easy" bit of the trip - travelling down through France and Spain to enter Africa through Morocco. Did I say easy? Ice, snow and some gremlins took care of that, and maybe that law written by some ***** named Murphy. We've arrived in Montpellier in good shape but there was the about seven our ordeal I call the 13 miles of pain. I'll get to that in good time.
Dover to Calias
Murphy and his stupid law had his first crack at us at Dover. Our 2.00pm sailing to Calais left an hour late. Didn't care we we're happy enough waiting as was just too exciting. Well, I did have a burger and onion rings, mmmmm. Murphy saw my onion ring happiness and retaliated with some high winds, so it took us four hours or so to get into the port.
We missed our spot at the dock and the high winds meant all the ferries had to use tug boats to dock and leave the port. Nice try Murphy, but we got to our budget travellers hotel checked in and went for a pint. In the meantime Murphy pushed the snow button. An interesting gambit, but we were ready with heated grips, doubled up gloves and a ton of warm gear... WE WIN
Calais to Bourges
Next morning there was a descent covering of snow in the car park. The roads are gritted so its all good. Except Murphy and his daft law cranked the temp right down, so my heated grips and double glove combo couldn't handle the jandal. We did 350 odd miles to Bourges stopping when the pain in my fingers got too bad. Drank lots of dodgy vending machine tea, and re-heated and dried my gloves with the hand driers in the bogs. Slow day, but not too bad. Well...
While my heated grips (KTM OEM) couldn't overcome the cold, Simon's Oxford grips set to max were a bit too hot. So while I wiggled my fingers to try keep circulation up, he wiggled his to stop them burning. It still makes me feel a bit sick. My goggles and visor kept fogging up too, so a lot of the time I had the cold air direct on my eyeballs, and the occasional dose of salt spray from the passing traffic. My eyeballs are as hard as nails... damn you Mr Murphy, damn you!!! No wonder we quickly learnt the French for cold at the services. Every person who saw us said it or tapped their head... thinking we're crazy.
Bourges to Montpellier?
Slow start to the day with a bit of tinkering with the bikes. My rubbish sw-motech stand snapped one of its two bolts, so I had to bodge that up with wire and hose clamps. We made much the same progress as the day before, stopping as the cold got too much and warming up.
It was the worst conditions of the the trip so far, but the best leg for me. I had sorted out the fogging and improved my gloves, by duck taping the air-vents closed (doh) and by taping the fingers together into a split mitten (joining two fingers into one). I travelled maybe 200 miles tapping my feet and wiggling my fingers and bobbing my head constantly while humming any old nonsense. Stopped me riding tensed up and kept me warmer too.
Maybe 100 miles from Montpellier we stopped at the services. We met some other crazy guys from New York in there 1969 beetle - they were in a rally heading to Cameroon. They were as cold as us as the heating didn't work, an they could see the road through the floor of the car. It was well ventilated.
About then we outraged Mr Murphy and his gremlins by planing to get a hotel. Was dark and cold, and thought we'd be cautious and take the easy option. We decided to go 13 miles to a small town and get a hotel.
13 miles of pain
Right, lets go! About a mile from the services, Simon stopped from as his front tire felt dodgy. We were perched on the inside corner of a motorway on-ramp looking like we needed to do our first puncture repair. We pumped up the tire and waited to see how quickly it was leaking... it was a very slow leak, so we decided to press on. Right lets hit the road! ahh but not like that...
Cold tired and short of leg on snow, Simon did the classic hop hop wobble splat getting on his loaded up bike. I ran back and we lifted the bike, fogged up our visors with the effort. Murphy giggled, he was just getting started.
Right lets go! We get a mile and Si can't see so we have to pull over on the hard shoulder (not good). Simon is cleaning his goggles when the screen pops out. Damn it. Cold fingers and several attempts later we get it seated and fixed.
Right lets go! The ktm goes chug chug click... the battery can't cope. Murphy pisses himself. I'd had the engine off, the key on with all electrics off apart from the blinkers. I would have let the bike idle, but in the cold, the oil thins but the engine doesn't heat properly until its under load, and so it was burning a lot of oil. I try kick start, but fail miserably.
I get 2m of 10 amp car electrical wire out of me tool tubes and start stripping it. Gunna jump start it of Simon's bike. His AT is idling along nicely and Simon's gives Murphy a tip, what if my battery dies too? Looking at his temp gauge Si thinks its getting a bit hot and hits the kill switch. I wander over and see the lights on, ohh switch those off... and the panic what about your heated grips!!! Si turns the grips off but the damage was done... only took a minute or so.
In the meantime I had been working on my bike, hiding behind the crash barrier and reaching over to the bike. Then there was an almighty twang resonating through the barrier. I look up and 150m past us a car has crashed. Si saw the whole thing.
A car drove past very slowly rubber necking at us. The next car came flying up behind him going way too fast (keep in mind the ice, snow and bitter cold). This guy swerves into the inside lane to pass and then tries to swerve back again, overcooks it and slams into the crash barrier - what an idiot! We were feeling pretty guilty for being the distraction that helped moron one and even bigger moron two crash. The drivers were ok I think.
Anyway, two trucks turn up with large accident warning signs to protect us and the cars down the road. We can work more safely now. I'm thinking two batteries with not quiet enough juice should start one bike ok. We're wiring the batteries together when Si gives the AT another go and it roars into life!!! We hook the ktm up to it and it to starts!!!! Then begins the very very long process of refitting the seats and loading the bikes. I can't believe how much longer this takes with frozen hands in the snow.
Right, lets go! The AT takes another tumble... lift bike, clean fogged up visors and try again. Remember we're only a few miles form the services we left a few hours before.
Right, lets go! Hmm, we're going!!! WE WIN HAAA HAAAA!!! It was all good trundling along at 20 miles an hour along the side of the road - good but slow. Then Murphy's law strikes again. My tomtom sends us off the motorway, I blindly follow it. Seems I'd picked limited speed routing... nooooo! We go far enough to realise my blunder and have to do a short loop back to the motorway. I can picture hooning down this road in the summer with a huge grin, instead we were wobbling down the road on thick ice at 10m/hr grimacing in pain at the cold in my hands. All good fun really though.
Back on the motorway for a slow trip to the town we'd picked out. There were a ton of motels on the tomtom, so we hit the first one with a 24 hour check in. All good except the gate didn't open. Dam it, had to unload on the road and squash through the pedestrian gate (arse!). Finally got into bed for dinner of boiled sweets at 2.45am. Lovely.
The next morning we both looked like tramps who'd been sleeping rough. Stinky and blood shot eyes, slow moving and clumsy. Breakfast and a blast of Slayer on the ipod sorted me out though. So when the reception staff had wandered off and the timer on the electronic key locked us out of the hotel I was well up for some house breaking. I grabbed a squashed coat hanger from my bike's tool tube and slipped the latch on the Hotel door. We beat the 13 miles of pain and we were ready to head off to Montpellier! funfun fun!
Millau to Montpellier

What's so good?
By Christiana Bartolini | Feb 20, 2013 | Total plays: 10,975
This perfectly portrayed quintessential indie pop ballad is just oozing with infectiousness. The fast-paced guitar, the shuffling drums, bopping bass and dreamy vocals makes for the perfectly pop-centric song. This is type of musical style that is very often imitated, but not well duplicated -- but Warm Soda nails it. There's nothing bad that I can say about this track.
If you need a little pep in your step, you can grab Warm Soda's LP Someone For You on March 26, 2013 and get to steppin'!

Is the world going to end this year?
Posted 20 June 2012 - 10:25 PM
Well, I totally disagree with the fact that the Mayans even said that there was an apocalypse, because all the Mayans did was run out of stone for calenders. However, many people interpreted that as no more calender meant no more life, and here we are today.
So what do you think about all this crap?
Btw, here is a video that I found explaining my point even further :

Thalia, just to clarify:
The Mayan calendar didn't have to take into account leap years. It's actually more specific than the Gregorian calendar (that most of the world uses) which has to have leap years. So saying the Mayan calendar was "wrong" because it didn't have leap years is incorrect. It was the people doing the math to calculate the end of the long-count cycle who didn't take into account leap years & the adjustments made to our calendar cycle over time.
Of course, there's also the thought that the original start date of the cycle could have been mis-interpreted, and we may have already passed the into the new cycle ... as much as a decade or possibly even a century ago. Or that it's actually next year or two years away from now. *shrug*
At any rate, I'm sure enough that the world isn't ending just because I have to buy a new calendar. I do that every year anyway.
(Now, world ending because some idiot decides it'd be a grand idea to declare nuclear war - I can see that happening anytime.)

They gathered at the rowhouse where Marty Ward was shot, to pay respects to the Baltimore police detective slain 25 years ago while posing as a heroin dealer, to rename a still-desolate stretch of Frederick Avenue in his honor, to remember one of the first casualties in what was then the start of the war on drugs.
When the speeches and accolades were over, federal drug agent Kevin Donnelly, the leader of the Black and Gold Pipes and Drums, dressed in a towering black feather bonnet, tunic and kilt, stood at the podium. In thick Irish brogue, he reminded everyone the war is far from over.

Timbers Reserves earn 1-1 road draw at Whitecaps FC Reserves
VANCOUVER, B.C. – A free-kick goal in the closing minutes of the match by forward Sal Zizzo helped the Portland Timbers Reserves earn a 1-1 draw against the Vancouver Whitecaps FC Reserves in MLS Reserve League play at UBC Thunderbird Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
Down a goal and with less than 10 minutes remaining, the Timbers Reserves (3-1-1, 10pts) found the equalizer in the 82nd minute as Zizzo drove in a free kick from just outside the box. The draw extends the Timbers Reserves unbeaten streak to three games.
The Whitecaps FC Reserves (2-0-1, 7pts) claimed the initial lead in the first half on a goal by forward Tom Heinemann in the 26th minute. Off a cross into the box, forward Corey Hertzog had a shot from inside the box deflected, but Heinemann picked up the free ball and slipped a shot from close range inside the left post.
A handball called on Hertzog just outside the box set up the Timbers Reserves free kick that led to the equalizer. Zizzo lined up over the ball and hit a low drive that snuck by the Whitecaps FC Reserves wall and into the bottom right corner of the goal for his first strike of the season.
The Timbers Reserves generated six of their 10 shots in the match during the second half and had multiple chances at the equalizer. In the 58th minute, defender Dylan Tucker-Gangnes had sharply hit header off a corner kick cleared off the line by Vancouver's Sam Adekugbe in position on the left post. Forward Jose Valencia had a header knick the crossbar in the 72nd minute.
Whitecaps FC goalkeeper Simon Thomas made both of his saves in the second half and prevented an own goal in the 53rd minute on a play off a Portland free kick.
The Whitecaps FC Reserves attempted seven shots in the first half, forcing Timbers goalkeeper Jake Gleeson into two saves. Gleeson turned in a diving stop early in the match to deny a scoring chance on a header by Hertzog and then turned away a shot from midfielder Park Kang-Jo as he charged into the box in the 28th minute. Hertzog also had a volley strike the goal post in the 30th minute.
The hard-fought match between the Cascadia rivals produced a combined 19 shots and 22 fouls, with the Timbers Reserves edging the Whitecaps FC Reserves in shots 10-9. Timbers midfielder Ben Zemanski was issued his second caution of the second half in stoppage time and the Timbers Reserves played out the last minutes of the contest with 10 players.
The Timbers Reserves travel to Florida to play USL PRO side VSI Tampa Bay FC in their next match on Saturday, June 1, at VSI Tampa Bay Stadium at 4:30 p.m. (Pacific). The Timbers Reserves defeated VSI Tampa Bay FC 2-1 in their previous meeting April 7 at JELD-WEN Field.

Pros: looks good, very shiny
Cons: very shiny
"This is a premature review because we haven't had it fitted yet. The cooker turns out to be extremely SHINY (it's actually like a mirror on the front) which isn't clear from the photos. Stylish though, I quite like it. Certainly gets noticed!
Note: if you have only had a gas cooker before, the electric oven needs its own circuit/ring main hard-wiring in by an electrician, as well as the Gas Safe fitter."

With a luminous stainless steel finish, this cooker is certain to draw admiring looks. You'll love the ready heat of the gas hob and the thorough cooking of the conventional fan oven. Easy to use, it switches on with a smooth push and turn motion. You'll get versatile cooking power with its 35 litre conventional oven and grill on top, which is perfect for smaller meals or giving a particular dish an extra bit of crispiness. Plus, the variable twin grill allows you to use just half the grill space at a time, saving you energy when cooking up smaller items, like just a couple of sausages or bread rolls.
The main cavity is spacious at 65 litres, giving plenty of room for cooking family dinners. The conventional fan oven ensures you get even cooking whether you're using the top or bottom rack.
It's B-rated for energy efficiency, so it's affordable to run. The doors are air cooled, meaning air flow lowers the external temperature of the doors. This helps make sure you and your kitchen don't feel a large rise in temperature when your cooker is in use. And for added peace of mind, there's a flame safety device which automatically switches off the gas to ensure you aren't faced with any harmful leaks.

Nonetheless...my point is that whatever mode of transportation you've selected, you can gussy it up with a decorating kit!

Addis Ababa — The Organization for National Examinations announced last week that the results of this year's Ethiopian School Leaving Examination (ESLCE) were lower than last year, but far better than what it was the year before that.
Ato Tezazu, the organization's general manager, told The Reporter that his organization had heard rumours that this year's results were bad and new grading systems had been used. "We haven't changed the grading system and it is only common that results fluctuate from year to year," he said.
"In 1996/97, the number of students that scored 2.0 and above were 39% of the total and in 1997/98 the figure was 50%. This year, the figure is less than the previous year by 1,992."
Ato Endale Shewangizaw, representative of the Examination Preparation and Coordination, said on his part that it was not fair to compare the performances this year and last year as the students and the exams were not the same.
"The fact that students are not able to fill examination forms properly remains to be a major problem," said Dr. Woubshet Shiferaw, Examination Administration and Coordination Head. "More than a million birr worth of effort was exerted to orient students with the examination system. However, this years' performance was the worst."
Weeks after this year's results were announced officially, many are still heard saying that this year's performance is exceptionally poor.
The Tikur Anbessa School administration said the number of students who scored 2.80 and above has decreased by 50%, while St. Joseph's School said it was satisfied with the performance of its students. The school administration said that, out of the 89 students who sat for the examination, 80 have managed to score 2.80 and above, making it the best performing school in the country.

General Description
An application processor, or SoC (System on a Chip), is a microprocessor with a specialized architecture for deployment in embedded systems, such as digital still/video cameras, digital/smart TVs and set-top boxes, and automotive systems, among others. An SoC operates at frequencies from several hundred MHz to a few GHz, and is architected to deliver significant computing performances at low power consumption levels in limited board spaces. High-end SoCs often contain multiple cores, enabling them to deliver exceptional performances in applications such as digital imaging and multimedia devices.
Current-generation SoCs are capable of running full-fledged versions of modern operating systems, providing the user a rich, interactive interface on devices such as smartphones and tablet computers. Almost all the latest SoCs have the ability to decode a majority of multimedia codecs, and contain hardware engines to deliver enhanced multimedia experiences to the user. They also contain dedicated MMUs (memory management units) to manage the memory for applications being run on the device. Recent SoCs also have a multitude of peripheral connectivity solutions on the chip, offering the designer extensive control in providing connectivity options on the device. SoCs are application specific, and contain features targeted towards the intended deployment segment. Thus, an SoC designed for a mobile handset would include front-end GSM RF functionalities on-chip, which would be absent in an SoC designed for deployment in a digital still camera. An increasing number of SoCs, however, are now offering a wide range of features, making the processor suitable for deployment on any application. Samsung is a worldwide leader in providing the most advanced, efficient, and customizable SoC solutions for deployment on a wide range of platforms, such as digital imaging, multimedia, and mobile communication and computing. Samsung's line of SoCs offers the highest performance, thermal stability, reliability, and I/O density in the smallest form factors at the lowest power consumption levels. Worldwide, Samsung is the preferred provider for SoC solutions for a majority of developers and OEMs for deployment on the broadest computing and communication devices and platforms.

Reviews for the HP Compaq Presario CQ50-115NR
Source: CNet
We were excited when HP announced the revival of the Compaq Presario brand earlier this year. Here was the promise of a family of basic, entertainment-oriented laptops at extremely low prices (starting at $499). Once we got our hands on the $649 Compaq Presario CQ50-115NR, we were impressed with its high-end look and feel. But looks aren't everything, and the Presario CQ50-115NR couldn't fulfill its upscale promise on our performance and battery benchmarks. The entry-level Compaq Presario CQ50-115NR looks great, but you can get better performance and battery life for your money.

Problem Credit? No Credit?
Auto Financing Made Easy
- Report Date:
- April 15, 2013
- Campaign Number:
- Component:
- Summary:
- Honda is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 CR-V, Odyssey, and model year 2013 Acura RDX vehicles. During sub-freezing temperatures, the brake-shift interlock blocking mechanism may become slow and allow the gear selector to be moved from the Park position without pressing the brake pedal. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 114, "Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention."
- Consequence Summary:
- If the gear selector is moved from the park position without pressing the brake pedal it can allow the vehicle to roll away, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Corrective Summary:
- Honda will notify owners and instruct them to take their vehicle to a Honda or Acura dealer. The dealer will install an updated brake shift interlock blocking mechanism free of charge. The recall began on May 13, 2013. Owners may contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009. Honda's campaign recall numbers are S96, S97, and S98.

I think it's alright.
From the pictures, it looks okay for me -- temporarily of course. I wouldn't want it to stay. I don't really understand its purpose though. Hmm.
Looks stupid
"Pain is temporary, Film is Forever..."
I think it looks good...
I wonder if you could hang from them...hmmm...
At least it is prettier than the stuff on the 405 freeway heading towards LA.
I've stuck my foot in my mouth so many times I don't think I'll ever get rid of the taste.
I thought Disneyland had avoided the more obnoxious Year of a Million Dreams decor that has infiltrated Walt Disney World.
Looks like I was wrong.
This stuff is tacky. It doesn't make sense at the turn-of-the-century Main Street Train Station, and it surely has no relevance to the overall Disneyland theme.
These "fancy graffiti" things look good in advertising materials, but inside the parks, its tacky, ugly, and only makes the Year of a Million Dreams that more confusing to guests visiting the parks.
One can only hope they don't wrap our Monorails in this stuff like they did at Walt Disney World.
How exactly is it "confusing"?
Doesn't look as bad as imagined when I read the topic of the thread but it's definitely the tackiest stuff they have done in the parks in some time.

Durham company's liqueur to be delivered to Durham ABC stores
Bottles of a honey spiced liqueur blended by a Durham company that has the county's only distillery permit are expected to be delivered to Durham County ABC stores starting today.
While the company has state and federal distillery permits, there is no distilling going on at the company's warehouse space on Ramseur Street. Durham-based Brothers Vilgalys Spirits Co. needed the permits in order to process and bottle spirits, said Rim Vilgalys, company founder.
The product, called Brothers Vilgalys Krupnikas, is made with alcohol produced by a supplier in Iowa that's resold by a company in Baltimore. Vilgalys said the alcohol is neutral with no real character or flavor, and is combined with wildflower honey and a spice reduction that's made with 16 different spices or plant substances.
Vilgalys said he uses whole spices, and no extracts or flavorings. For each batch, he said he has to scrape the skins of lemons and oranges, cut up a bunch of vanilla beans, and slice up ginger and turmeric. He said he buys honey from a local apiary.
Making a batch takes about eight hours start to finish, which gets about 120 bottles of clear product, Vilgalys said.
He boils spices and plant products in a kettle to make a concentrated liquid. The honey is added in, and then is together added to the alcohol in a steel wine drum. It takes a few days for spice solids to settle out, he said.
Then the product is bottled using a small, four-spout machine, and is finished with a roll-on bottle labeler.
The resulting product is a sweet drink, Krupnikas, a traditional Lithuanian honey spiced liqueur, is good for parties or special occasions, he said. The dominant taste is honey, but he believes it's complex and would have a wide appeal.
Vilgalys started writing a business plan in 2011, he had leased space in April of last year and was almost ready to go by December. To get to that point, however, he said he had to get through red tape that was "quite extensive."
Vilgalys said permits he needed included a distilled spirits plant permit from the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, as well as a N.C. Alcoholic Beverage Control-approved distillery permit, as well as federal-level liqueur formula and product approval, and N.C. ABC Commission product approval.
Vilgalys said he pays $27 a gallon of alcohol sold as a federal tax, which he said comes out to about $2.14 per bottle. There is a state excise tax, and mark-ups that fund the operations of the local ABC additional boards, the State ABC Commission and State ABC Warehouse, but he said he doesn't pay those directly.
Vilgalys said he's selling the product, which costs $29.95 for a 750-milliliter bottle, at Chatham, Franklin, Orange and Franklin county ABC stores. He said he also has some product in ABC stores in the Winston-Salem area. In two weeks, he said the company has moved 64 cases.
The product is expected to be delivered to the Durham County ABC warehouse this morning, said Emily Page, general manager for the Durham County ABC Board, and deliveries are expected to be made to the eight stores starting this afternoon.
Page said when each store will have the product depends on the delivery schedule. She said she expected the product to be in all eight stores by Friday.
"Really, we're excited because it's a Durham product," she said. "As far as we know, they're the first legal distilled plant, the only one now operating out of Durham."
Agnes Stevens, a spokeswoman for the N.C. Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission, said there are 11 permitted distilleries in the state.
Vilgalys said he'd like to eventually be distilling his own alcohol, but what's stopping him is cost.

I applied for a tech support position they posted on craigslist. They said they were expanding to Texas bla bla. A nice lady called me and asked would I be willing to take a test and I said yes. Shes said it was 1-2 hr. basic grammar and math stuff. I thought that was kinda odd but was excited because I got a call from an employer. Well I almost got scammed once today from another ad. It got me thinking and it sure sounds like this company is using me to take a survey they can cash out on. I'm not gonna go.

I like how it says "free IPv6 certifications!".
So what do ya'll think? Since we're on the subject does anyone know any other tech job opening scam types and what to look for so I don't get totally ruined by identity theft.

"Fierce" might be an overused word in fashion, but I think it perfectly describes Kate's style. She really knows how to apply the right proportions to her body shape in a simplistic yet chic way; I mean, take a look at those lapels and studded shoes! Kate also happens to be one of the most amiably pleasant people that I met during NYFW, which is a testament to what many were telling me about her.
