Dan Carpenter's groin injury apparently didn't improve quickly enough for the Dolphins' kicker to play against Dallas on Thanksgiving. Carpenter, who had never missed a game in his four NFL seasons until missing Sunday's win over Buffalo, did not travel with the team to Dallas today, a source confirmed. Shayne Graham will handle the kicking [...]

When planning a big trip, we instinctively think about the itinerary, what we need to pack, what time we have to leave and what we need to do between now and then to have as stress – free a break as possible. Planning based on a particular objective and singular transaction comes naturally to most of us. However, faced with the prospect of planning the journey of transitioning wealth many of us hesitate. So to help let's start with an understanding of the current structure and ownership.
By first understanding the nature of the assets owned and structure of ownership, it is possible to develop a plan for the future evolution and management of the wealth at hand. It is also useful to have a reference point at which to measure future progress and perhaps more, importantly, as the basis upon which you can provide your family with place to start a conversation. This is what we own and this is how we own it.
As a basis for explaining a current position this is a good place to start discussing your wealth.
In contemplating, the future management of your wealth, first understanding your own feelings around being financially comfortable and your relationship to wealth is important. What are your hopes and expectations for your wealth? How would you like your wealth to be applied in the future?
Many struggle to come to terms with their wealth and the extent to which being wealthy defines who they are. How you think about your wealth is a key determinant in developing plans for subsequent transfer and ownership.
For many, of course, the question is not how they think their wealth affects them but more significantly, how they think their wealth will affect their family. In discussions with wealth owners around these concerns, the conversation often starts with anecdotes of mis-spent inheritances and the failures of friends' children, leaving them paralysed for fear of the consequences of doing something untoward to their own offspring.
In this regard many have no touch point or firsthand experience to rely on because, many have never inherited themselves. Dennis Jaffe, a leading US family adviser, refers to "immigrants to Wealth" as a means of describing the sense of arriving in a strange place not speaking the language or having the behavioural norms to fit in.
What we do know is that 'failure to communicate' is the number one cause for the dissipation of family wealth through dispute or mismanagement.
So knowing your own feelings is the basis for asking others their opinion. If you have fears find ways to express them. Bearing in mind, your need to protect could be seen as a lack of trust, if the basis of your action is not explained.

This is a little difficult to describe, but here goes.
This isn't a huge deal for me, but as soon as I saw this, it looked like a privacy problem to me. Maybe I am not understanding my privacy settings correctly.
To cut to the chase:
I have set my photos to "friends only", with my understanding being, that only my friends on Facebook are able to see my photos.
I found an old mention of me in a tweet by a Seattle hyperlocal blog from October of 2010, along with a tinyurl back to a photo gallery of mine:
My issue is, you don't have to be signed into Facebook to see my photos in this album. I don't know why that's possible, especially since i've changed my profile setting to "friends only" and I double checked the album itself, and it's "friends only" also.
When I originally posted the pictures, I had the most permissible settings possible.
I am worried that perhaps people changing their privacy settings isn't working for Facebook URL's that are shared.
Meaning that, someone could troll through new users with permissible privacy, share their photo albums out on twitter, and then go back after users change their privacy settings to being more restrictive.
I don't know if this makes any sense or not, but it's perplexing to me.
Help get this topic noticed by sharing it on Twitter, Facebook, or email.
Pic of my FB profile settings, i've had it set to "Friends Only" for some time now.
As you can see, I am not logged into Facebook. I see an old tweet from a Seattle hyperlocal blog, along with a tiny url link back to a photo album of mine.
You can see this album, even though I have set my photos to "friends only".
Hi, I'm Mike and I work at Facebook. This post is old, but in case it's helpful to other people I wanted to post.
What happened here is that the link you shared is a "public link", to let you share your photos with people who aren't on Facebook. Flickr has something similar, called "guest passes". Only the owner of the album can see the link to copy and share it, but anyone who receives the link can use it to view that album.
I hope that helps clear things up!
Hi Mike,
Thanks for that response.
Is it possible, then, for users to change the URL and/or disable public access to their albums in order to prevent people whom the user doesn't want to see their photos from viewing them?
There's no way for a user to reset their URL at this time (though someone manually invalidated the one in the original post). The feature is only available to the album owner, so if the owner doesn't share the "public link" then it will be effectively disabled.
Mike: this is a *really* weak security scheme. (...don't share the URL? Hahahahaha.)
Have you now filed an internal enhancement suggestion at Facebook based on this user feedback...? Allowing the disabling of public URLs that users have previously created would seem like a no-brainer. You guys spend months and months working on UI designs, but can't spend ten minutes working out a 'disable' function for publicly posted information?
Has anyone in the security division of Facebook ever heard of "Revocation Lists"...? Implement that.
Got to this page after searching how to do exactly that. It seems Facebook still doesn't support invalidation of the public URL. This makes the public URL functionality useless :(

Nicolas Cage's Career hits a new low.

Re: Nicolas Cage's Career hits a new low.
I find every Christian belief related to the afterlife to be pretty much equally disagreeable and entirely unbelievable. The premise of heaven is always elitist and exclusionary. Somebody lives a life of operating outside government law so gets billions of years of torture as punishment? I don't see how moderate Christian's beliefs are that much less off-putting than fundamentalist beliefs. Those people just tend to be from poorer and less educated backgrounds so are sneered at more acceptably by society than middle-class, liberal Christians that only follow their religion when it's convenient for their lifestyle.

Admissions + Aid
Shamika Cameron
Meet Shamika Cameron, Associate Director of Admissions for Multicultural Recruitment at Emmanuel College, Boston.
Shamika coordinates our multicultural recruitment. She also visits and reads applications for California, New York City and parts of Massachusetts (Boston/Cambridge area and the surrounds).
What is your favorite thing about Emmanuel College?
I love the fact that it is a beautiful campus, right in the city.
What is your favorite thing to do in Boston?
I love going to the Public Gardens or the Common, or just walking around anywhere in downtown Boston. It is a beautiful, pedestrian-friendly city and there is plenty to do.
What is the one piece of advice you would give prospective students about the college process?
I have a couple pieces of advice. The first piece is to do your homework! Know where you stand within your high school (GPA, rank, etc.), research colleges (so the process will be much easier) and keep your options open. A very wise colleague of mine once pointed out that you will never be more sought after again in your life. It might sound a little funny at first, but it's true. There are over 3,000 colleges in the U.S. alone. Everyone is looking for great students. If your first choice says no to you, I guarantee you that there are other great schools out there that would be a great fit for you-but you just haven't thought about them.
What is the most exciting aspect of working in Admissions?
I love traveling and meeting interesting students. I am also very interested in education. My job gives me a chance to see what kind of job high schools are doing preparing their students, and I also get to see what's going on in higher education.

If I ride in a group I like to ride with two or three friends that I know well. Every now and then a group of five of us gets together to ride. We all know each other and our riding styles and abilities so it works well. I've learned not to ride in any larger groups or with more than one or two other people I wasn't used to riding with.
When I have ridden in larger groups (anywhere from 10-20 riders) after an hour or two I got so frustrated with the slow pace/dangerous riding/constant stopping, I told the ride leader it wasn't working for me, have a nice day I'll be taking off on my own.
Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most

Jim Brown, the greatest running back in Cleveland Browns and arguably NFL history, has expressed on two occasions that he does not think highly of Trent Richardson, who was drafted third overall by the team in April.
Richardson finally responded to Brown's criticism.
"He has his own thoughts. That's him being him," Richardson said earlier this month, according to ESPN's Jamison Henley. "I have no problem with it. I just wish the best of luck for him whatever he's doing in life.
"I laugh at the situation," Richardson said. "You don't know me from spic to span. But he's Jim Brown. He's done a lot here and I haven't done anything yet. I have a lot to accomplish and big shoes to fill. When it comes down to it, I have to work and make sure I make him a believer. I haven't done anything yet."
Brown may not know Richardson, but he's certainly entitled to evaluate him as a running back. The best thing for the Browns would be for Richardson to use the slights as motivation to dominate on the field. We already know Brown said he'd apologize if Richardson proves him wrong, so at least he's pledging to be fair about the situation.
For the record, I lean more toward Brown's evaluation of Richardson rather than Cleveland's.

Birth Control Health Center
Sterilization Directory
Surgical sterilization is a permanent form of birth control that is extremely effective at preventing pregnancy. But sterilization is difficult to reverse if you change your mind, and it does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases. Both men and women can be sterilized. For women, a tubal ligation is performed; for men, a vasectomy is performed. Women have the option of tubal ligation surgery or the placement of a device called Essure. Follow the links below to find WebMD's comprehensive coverage on surgical sterilization, what it involves, who does it, and much more.

How awesome is the iPad?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Handhelds, Videos
In case you didn't watch that iPad introduction keynote, someone's gone through the trouble of condensing the entire 93-minute event event into 180 seconds. It does a great job at explaining what Steve Jobs and company think of their latest creation. Check out the iPad announcement video above to see what me mean.

Weekend Reading: Plastic Man, iPads, Clowns, Jack Kirby & Top Cat
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Editorials
Is everyone ready to read Bluewater's J.D. Salinger comic book on the iPad? Now that's a game-changer I can believe in! Let's see what I've got on my desktop this week:
Apple's iPad: Apparently Apple changed the game with some kind of game changer that's supposed to be the Jesus of print that'll save newspapers from their own stupidity and ineptitude and also change the way we read comics and make a BLT just the way I like it and find me a room at Comic Con International. Tom Spurgeon at The Comics Reporter coalesces his thoughts on the matter. Me? I'm waiting for the iPad with wings.
Plastic Man: There are other places that are dropping it, but my favorite is over at John Kricfalusi's blog. He's imbedded the 10-minute Plastic Man pilot that was created by Tom Kenny (the voice of Spongebob) and Stephen DeStefano (simply one of the great modern cartoonists, and co-creator/artist of the much-beloved 'Mazing Man). Says John: "It's a real cartoon and you can tell the creators like the audience. It sure stands out from most of what's out there." Go check it out.
iPad: What it means for Apple and gaming
Posted by Drea Avellan Categories: Casual, Editorial, Electronic Arts, Portable/Mobile
Yesterday, many rumors were put to rest with the release of the Apple iPad. People were excited, joyful, angry, disappointed, or just plain indifferent. Whatever you stance, you had some kind of reaction to Apple's announcement of the iPad. Is it a giant iPhone? A female hygiene product? A cool netbook replacement? That's for you to decide.
Whatever iPad really is, and regardless of what it's competing against, one thing is clear–Apple wants to make a dent in the gaming industry. Developers and publishers were present at yesterday's conference, including Gameloft and Electronic Arts (EA,) to show off their games running on the iPad, including a full-screen version of Need for Speed. EA made its presence clear, by announcing during the presentation they are to support the iPad platform with future titles built specifically for the device. This should come as no surprise to most, as EA has been a huge supporter of the iPhone and iPod touch as a gaming platform.
AT&T providing iPad 3G service without contracts
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Handhelds, Wireless / WiFi
If you're considering picking up an Apple iPad when they launch a couple of months from now and you plan on taking it on the go, you'll want to know about the extra fees you'll incur if you choose to go the with AT&T-provided 3G access plans. First, though, your 3G iPad will cost $130 more than the Wi-Fi-only version. Once you get it, you've got two options with AT&T:
- $29.99 per month unlimited data plan
- $14.99 per month for 250MB of monthly data
It's a good deal for monthly 3G access, especially when you consider the fact that both plans are pre-paid month-to-month plans that don't require any sort of contract. The other benefit that you get from picking up a 3G iPad model is assisted GPS, which the Wi-Fi-only iPad lacks.
iPad keyboard accessory
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Apple, Handhelds
Looks like Apple is realizing that if you are going to be building a larger-form factor device like the iPad, you've gotta realize that some of the people that use it are going to want a physical keyboard. With that knowledge, they've prepared a keyboard accessory for the iPad. It's actually both a keyboard and a dock for charging the iPad as well, which can be used to plug in to a USB power adapter, sync with a computer, etc. It also has an audio jack that let's you connect the keyboard dock to a stereo system or powered speakers. No word on price just yet.

Apple iPad revealed
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Corporate News, Handhelds
It's been a long, rumor-filled road, but today Apple has finally revealed a tablet, called the iPad. Steve Jobs seemed genuinely thrilled to demo the iPad, which weighs just 1.5 pounds, is a half-inch thin, and has a 9.7-inch capacitive touchscreen IPS display. More interesting, Apple has built their own custom 1GHz processor, called the Apple A4 chip, to power the iPad. According to Jobs, the A4 chip "just screams," and as a result, the iPad boasts a 10-hour battery life, with a full one month of standby time. You'll be able to get one in 16, 32, or 64GB sizes,
prices listed below. Bluetoth, 802.11n Wi-Fi, speaker, microphone, and dock connector round out the offerings.
One of the big draws of the iPad is that all current iPhone apps will run just fine on it, and you can choose to run them at the original resolution, or in a pixel-doubled mode for fullscreen on the iPad. Apps can also be optimized for iPad to take advantage of the full screen resolution, as well as enhanced gestures. A new iPhone SDK, which includes iPad support, will be released later today.
The goal with the iPad is to do the tasks like web browsing, email, photo viewing, video watching, and e-book reading (Apple is including a new ereader app called iBooks) better than a netbook ever could, but also better than a smartphone ever could. The iPad has a "gorgeous" keyboard that actually looks very easy to use, and the actual built-in applications look more like the full version of OS X than what you'd find on the iPhone or iPod touch. In fact, you even get full-featured applications like iPhoto, iTunes, iBooks, and even Pages, Keynote, and Numbers in iWork for the iPad.
As far as 3G data plans, the iPad has two plans available from AT&T in the US. $14.99 per month for up to 250MB of data, or $29.99 per month for unlimited data. The best part? There are no contracts. You pay on a pre-paid month-to-month basis, so there are no cancellation fees. You activate your plan directly from the iPad, with no reason to hit an AT&T Store. All iPad 3G models are unlocked and use GSM micro SIMs, so in theory, you could get a better plan of your own elsewhere and just use that.
Let's talk pricing - each model of the iPad is available as a Wi-Fi-only or Wi-Fi + 3G configuration. 16GB is $499 / $629, 32GB costs $499 / $729, and the 64GB model will be $699 / $829. As far as availability, iPad without 3G will start shipping at the end of March, while the 3G models will start shipping at the end of April. Choose wisely!

At this morning's Apple tablet event, Steve Jobs revealed the latest creation from the company, the Apple iPad. More details as we get them!
Confirmed: Apple Tablet runs iPhone OS says McGraw-Hill CEO
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Handhelds, Rumors
Okay, we all know by now that Apple is going to be announcing their tablet at tomorrow's January 27th Apple event, but the CEO of McGraw-Hill, Terry McGraw, just kinda spilled the beans on CNBC:
"Yeah, Very exciting. Yes, they'll make their announcement tomorrow on this one. We have worked with Apple for quite a while. And the Tablet is going to be based on the iPhone operating system and so it will be transferable. So what you are going to be able to do now is we have a consortium of e-books. And we have 95% of all our materials that are in e-book format on that one. So now with the tablet you're going to open up the higher education market, the professional market. The tablet is going to be just really terrific."
Is true, that means no Snow Leopard tablet, to those who were hoping for that. Thoughts?

First iPad Apple tablet review
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Handhelds, Rumors, Videos
Oh, we knew the Apple tablet / iPad / iSlate would be good, but we didn't think it'd be this good. Walt Mosspuppetberg got his hands on an iSlate, and has been using one for a couple of years as it's gone through its various development cycles. He finally breaks his silence with this review, stating that "this is probably the most completely perfect product to ever be released."
Wednesday's Apple tablet event can't come soon enough!

Men's tennis team ranked 17th
Published: Friday, January 17, 2003 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 16, 2003 at 11:00 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | The University of Alabama men's tennis team is ranked 17th in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association's first rankings of the season.
Maxim Belski and Stephen Mitchell are listed in the singles rankings, at No. 39 and No. 63, respectively.
"We feel like that's certainly a fair ranking for our team," Crimson Tide coach Billy Pate said. "As we tell our players, rankings are what people think of you and results are what you think of yourself."
In doubles, newcomer Geoff Hiscox and Mitchell are ranked No. 8 entering the season. The team of Belski and Brad Friedman is ranked No. 51.

Car Rental in Provence
Looking to rent a car working out of Aix-en-Provence in September. Any suggestions on where to rent and costs. Rick's book on Provence says figure $50 for each person to rent a car. That's $100 for the two of us. We have friends visiting and it would probably be cheaper to rent if there are four of us instead of taking trains to various locations.

Mike Goodes takes Champions Tour lead
Updated: May 3, 2013, 7:26 PM ETAssociated Press
THE WOODLANDS, Texas -- Mike Goodes shot a 3-under 69 in wind that gusted to 30 mph to take a one-stroke lead Friday after the first round of the Champions Tour's Insperity Championship.
Only seven players in the 81-man field broke par on an unseasonably cold and blustery day. A gust blew down one scoreboard at The Woodlands Country Club.
Goodes bogeyed the second hole, rallied with par saves on the fifth and sixth holes and ran in a 20-foot birdie putt on No. 7. He birdied two of ...

The April Trend Report
MINI on Pinterest
In case you've been wandering around with a thick paper bag over your head for the last few months, chances are you've heard of Pinterest.com. It's a virtual pinboard that allows you to find and share the most beautiful, inspiring, interesting or amusing images on the web. Check in with the MINI page for shots of all the latest rides, along with Classic Mini images from the archives, concept cars and exclusive design models. And be sure not to miss our very own MINI Space board. Pin it!
Dead Drops
File storage and sharing methods aren't necessarily the sexiest thing on the digital agenda, but a radical offline file-sharing project is set to bring a bit of enigmatic, retro flair to the proceedings. The brainchild of architect and artist Aram Bartholl, Dead Drops are fixed USB sticks hidden in public spaces and used to share secret and creative content anonymously. Just plug in your computer and see what goodies have been left surreptitiously. Aram began "injecting" USB sticks into holes in the walls of New York buildings two years ago, and the project has attracted a wave of followers ever since. Check out the video for ideas, then create your own Dead Drops, share content, and indulge those nostalgic espionage fantasies you've always harbored (no fooling us).
Animal of the Week: Bonobo Apes
Why? Because thanks to Bonobo Hope Great Ape Trust Sanctuary in Des Moines, Iowa, these guys could be your new BFFs. The Trust have spent the last seven years developing a program allowing bonobos to communicate with humans by selecting lexigrams on large touchscreen displays. And now, to ease that awkward moment when you bump into a bonobo out and about, they've taken things one step further with the Bonobo Chat app. The app translates English speech into lexigrams for Bonobos to understand, but Head Programmer Ken Schwaller says even greater things are in the pipelines. He suggests that the apes could eventually use Bonobo Chat to change the temperature, operate vending machines, and even watch movies. Fun, or freaky? What do you think?
With thoughts of springtime and camping on our minds, we can't help but love these Tentsiles!

They come in a variety of sizes and colors, so you and your friends can snuggle up in signature style. Just make sure those trees are strong enough...

42 year old woman | Oakland, CA, USA | Seeking men 35-47 within 70 miles
Enjoying the big and small moments.
I balance playfulness with sincerity and intellect. I smile often and laugh easily. I have a close network of friends and value these relationships. I love to travel and enjoy learning about the world and myself through these adventures, but always come back to the Bay Area. It's where my roots are and I love the diversity and culture here. I get at least one new stamp on my passport every year. Art, music, food, and literature are some things that bring me great pleasure. I like leisurely Saturday mornings, walking around the farmers market, sculpture gardens, scenic hikes, going to shows, visiting the de Young, checking out new bars/restaurants, tennis, and catching a game at the ballpark. Ultimately, I'm looking for a long-term relationship with someone who shares some of my interests, intellectual curiosity, and compassion for others; someone who meets life's challenges with integrity, humor, and grace. You are looking for an awesome woman with whom to grow more whimsical, laughable, and wise as we navigate the windy avenues of life. I read the following over a decade ago and it still resonates with me: "But beware of looking for goals: look for a way of life. Decide how you want to live and then see what you can do to make a living within that way of life."-Hunter S. Thompson I would say I've managed to do this pretty well.

It's called the 'Eighth Borneo International Yachting Challenge', but as passing cruising sailors know, there's not much infrastructure, so this is really a get together for cruising sailors on their way round the world.
Borneo International Yachting Challenge
With inducements like free marina berths, air conditioned rooms and cash, this year it has so far attracted sailors with flags such as New Zealand, USA, Switzerland, Great Britain, the Philippines and Malaysia. Are YOU cruising in the area? - it's a great opportunity, and you have until mid-July to get there.
Closing date for interested 'teams' (cruising boats) to submit their names is end of June. Prize presentation of the event will be held on July 23 in Kota Kinabalu.
The Borneo International Yachting Challenge starts July 17. This year it will feature so far 21 'teams', including one from Malaysia.
The flag-off of the event will be held on July 17 by Minister of Tourism and Heritage, Datuk Amar Abang Johari Tun Openg. The flag-off will be held at Marina Bay, Miri. Teams will then head off to Labuan, before kicking off to Kota Kinabalu on July 20.
Borneo International Yachting Challenge
'Thirteen teams have confirmed their participation for the event,' said Assistant Minister of Sports Datuk Lee Kim Shin on Friday to a group of local media after chairing a meeting with the organising committee. Also present was Troy Yaw, one of the organising chairmen (BIYC for Miri side).
For more information, go to the http://www.borneorace.com!official_website.
[Readers should remember that Borneo is known as 'The Land Below the Wind' for a good reason. There are no typhoons down there, but there's not much else either. The only beverages at official functions are flat coca cola and warm orange squash. Just thought you needed to know... Guy Nowell, Editor, Sail-World Asia].

Most Helpful Opinion
Make no mistake, emotional pain is real pain. It drives some people to suicide if it isn't dealt with. It drives other people to drug addictions and sometimes behavioral addictions like sex or cutting to distract them from the pain.
There's a great song by REM called "Everybody Hurts". The first time you go through it it seems like no one could understand but most people go through it at some point. For me personally, heartache feels like someone has pinched my heart with a pair of pliers and is just twisting it and twisting it. It also burns a little.
What Guys Said 3
For me It felt like almost a sick feeling in my stomach, like having butteflies except it felt really bad. I also felt this overwhelming breathlessness, to the point where I had to sit down... then after the initial hit it was just pure sadness from then on, just wondering why things have to be like they are most of the time, it sucked ass
What Girls Said 3
I never really had a real heartbreak until I met this guy who I really got to love. believe it or not, it was like the first time I fell in love. before him, I only had tiny crushes with those good looking guys who I dated and then when the "relationship" ended I barely felt it. But then, I realized there was more than that. I fell into this guy who now is my boyfriend, and when he broke my heart I just felt as if all my world had fallen. I felt as if everything I knew was a lie, cause I really believed he liked me back. I felt lost and confused and, just as you, I realized how much I loved him. I remember that the pain really like delayed because it was until like three hours after that, when I was at home in my room, that I really felt the pain. I started crying for who knows how long and then fell a sleep. I felt his response as a stab in the heart, so that's basically how a heartbreak to me feels like.

Vote on 9/11 Health Bill in Doubt
House leaders are quietly contemplating canceling a planned Wednesday vote on a health-care bill for Ground Zero workers if Republicans try to add an amendment barring treatment for illegal immigrants who labored there—a politically sensitive issue coming so close to November's elections.
The vote will mark the second showdown on the legislation, a $7.4 billion measure long sought by New York's congressional delegation that would provide years of treatment for those who worked at the Ground Zero site or nearby. The bill would also re-open a victim compensation fund for sick or dying workers.
Medical studies have found thousands of people who worked on the debris pile in lower Manhattan later developed respiratory or gastrointestinal disorders. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health has compiled new figures estimating that since 2006, approximately 36,000 people have received some form of treatment or tests following exposure to the toxic dust and debris after the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks on the World Trade Center.
A vote on the 9/11 health care bill in July failed amid bitter recriminations. At one point in the floor debate, one New York lawmaker, Democrat Rep. Anthony Weiner, bellowed at another, Republican Rep. Peter King, to sit down and be quiet.
That fight centered on the Democrats' decision to try to pass the bill using a procedural measure that doesn't allow amendments to be offered, but requires a two-thirds majority to pass it, unlike the usual simple majority of lawmakers.
Republicans, including Mr. King, called it a political stunt, while Democrats accused Republicans of dodging responsibility for voting against those who volunteered to work at the World Trade Center site.
Mr. King sounded far more optimistic about the bill's chances this time around, though he said he could not promise specific amendments wouldn't be offered during the debate.
"I have no guarantees from anyone, but I believe it's going to go forward," said Mr. King, who met earlier with Republican Minority Leader John Boehner to lobby for the bill.
Moderate Democrats in close election races around the country have privately expressed a desire to avoid having to vote on an amendment that would exclude undocumented immigrants, and party leaders would like to protect them from having to take such a vote.
A spokesman for Speaker Nancy Pelosi declined to comment when asked if leaders would pull the bill off the floor if such an amendment is offered.
Hispanic lawmakers have threatened to vote against the bill if such language is added, saying it is an insult to people who served in a crisis. "If you're going to play politics with immigration, there's plenty of other debates in which to do that," said Rep. Jose Serrano (D-Bronx). "It would be very difficult to get the vast majority of Hispanic members to vote for a bill that singled out undocumented volunteers."
Yet the Republicans have not shown much interest in pressing immigration on the House floor this year, and it's not clear that they will do so tomorrow.
Rather, most Republican objections to the Sept. 11 health-care bill focus on its cost. GOP members have complained it is another entitlement program, and one largely for the benefit of a specific city and region.

The resort organised a shuttle service for the full moon party and there were always delays. The shuttle was supposed to arrive at 2am but it only arrived at 2:30 and we had to wait until 2:45 for it to leave although everybody was insisting on leaving.

Stayed for 3 nights over the full moon party. Nice pool, beach bar and private beach area. However in our 3 night stay there were 3 power cuts, lasting for at least 20 mins each time. Location near shops and a few bars and restaurant (the beach lounge a 2 min walk away is amazing for a treat!) and about a 20 mins drive to the full moon party. The hotel did a return taxi at a reasonable price on the night. Food and drinks at the hostel are pretty expensive and not that great.

This was the wrong town and the wrong hostel I choose. There are so much more beautiful towns/beaches/hostels on the island, for example on salad beach. The bungalows and everything needs a makeover. The staff is unmotivated and unfriendly, the prices in the resort are far too expensive (bottle of chang for 140 bath). We were so disappointed that we left two days earlier - of course without a refund. I will never come back!

The room is the bare minimum, but it's cheap so you get what you pay for. There is no aircon just a fan which makes it uncomfortable to sleep in. Water in the bathroom had a strong sulphur smell. Rooms aren't that great but the location is good, right on the beach and the pool is nice. Staff were very friendly, except the reception guy who seemed to want a tip for walking us 6m to our room and was rude to us for the rest of our stay. Food was good and cheap except for the Thai food.

Very nice place, approx. 10 mins from the pier and the city. Staff was friendly and the facilitied were very clean. My only critic would be the loud music that lasts till midnight every day. Also, it is not the best place to meet fellow backpackers if you are traveling solo. Overall a great experience.

Office workers know how easy it is for time to fly by as we spend our summer days indoors. Sure, sitting in a windowless cubicle before the phosphorescent glow of a computer screen for eight hours is glamorous, but do you ever find yourself wishing you were in a meadow somewhere chasing butterflies?
Who says the office can't be your own special meadow?
Next time you're stuck with a late-night deadline, instead of cursing friends and coworkers enjoying themselves at the beer garden — you can format those reports in the midst of your own cubicle butterfly garden. This project is not only cathartic, it's simple! Even young kids can help.
What you'll need
Butterfly coloring pages (available via Google search)
Colorful marking pens
Clear translucent cardstock (or velum paper)
Step 1: Select your butterfly coloring pages. Print them out.
Step 2: Overlay 1 piece of translucent cardstock over the image.
Step 3: Using a dark pen (I used black), trace the butterfly image.
Step 4: Flip the paper over, and on the backside, color inside the lines. Why flip? It keeps the dark ink used for tracing from blending and running into the lighter, colored ink.
Step 5: Cut out the butterfly and fold in half along the body. Use the tape to stick your butterflies wherever you want your garden to appear: on your computer monitor, on your office window, in clusters along a wall for decor.
BONUS: Name your butterflies and when people ask about them, share detailed stories about their very complicated lives.

Acura has announced that the 2016 Acura NSX will be the official pace car of the 93rd Broadmoor Pikes Peak International Hill Climb on June 28.
We're still patiently awaiting the arrival of the 2016 Acura NSX, but some of the NSX's engineers recently shared some of the technical details about the NSX at the SAE Detroit Section dinner, held in conjunction with the SAE 2015 World Congress and Exhibition.
Acura revealed the 550-hp 2016 Acura NSX this week at the Detroit Auto Show, but there are already reports that a more powerful NSX Type-R is in the cards.
It's been a very long three years since Acura unveiled the NSX concept and now Acura has unveiled the new NSX in production form. Luckily most of the design details from the original concept have translated into the production 2016 NSX.
To get the world ready for the debut of the 2016 NSX, Acura has released a few teaser photos and a 30-second teaser video that gives an early glimpse of the production car and the sound of its three-motor, twin-turbocharged Sport Hybrid powertrain.
We're still about a year away until the Acura NSX returns, but we've recently learned some details about Acura's performance targets for the new NSX.
While we still have to wait until 2015 to get behind the wheel of the next Acura NSX, Acura has announced that the Acura NSX concept is featured in Gran Turismo 6.
Acura is reportedly working on a new convertible version of its upcoming NSX supercar.
Honda still hasn't released pricing details, but Honda development chief Ted Klaus recently told Autocar that the NSX will be priced around the same as the Porsche 911.
Honda has unveiled the NSX Concept-GT, which will enter into the GT500 class of the Super GT Series Round 5 at Suzuka Circuit this weekend.
Honda has announced that a prototype of the new NSX will take to the racetrack just prior to the Honda Indy 200 IndyCar Series race at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in Lexington, Ohio.
Honda has already received so much interest for the new NSX, that it has already starting taking orders for the supercar in the UK.
Honda is going to bring two new concepts to the Geneva Motor Show next month, the Civic Wagon concept and the revised NSX concept.
We're still two years away until the next Acura NSX arrives, but in the meantime Acura has unveiled the next evolution of the NSX concept.
Earlier this year Acura previewed the next Acura NSX supercar, with a concept version at the Detroit Auto Show. Now according to Auto Express, Acura will return to the 2013 Detroit Auto Show in January with the production version of the new NSX.
Honda is reportedly working on a "Small NSX."
Acura gave us our first look at the NSX concept at the Detroit Auto Show in January. The concept was originally shown off in a light charcoal, now here are new photos of the NSX Concept in red.
On Wednesday, actor Robert Downey Jr drove onto the red carpet in a one-off Acura NSX roadster concept for the premiere of The Avengers film. In addition to "Tony Stark's" Acura NSX, the premiere, co-sponsored by Acura, featured militarized...

oops - I just ralised in my post I put "here is gallery" and did not put any links in.
Here we go. I am on last stage of assembly now. Couple more week's evenings and it will go back onto road. Nothing was wrong, I just wanted to make it 100% "mine", way I like it. And improve of course. BTW, with proper 2 inch header (stil want one) and correct jetting it does pull out 60 bhp and more torque. But even with just proper pipe it already past stock 54 bhp.
Next will be non-CV carbs...pair of nice flatslides 38 mm is a bit steep for bike I bought for 900 Euros :)
benelli can - disassembled out of pure curiosity :) Titanium everywhere
new can on....do not comment on the link pipe welding - try yourself to weld 1 mm wall pipes using stick welder... :( Looks better now painted...
new dashboard mount getting shape
better bar, handguards etc.
now it looks better - HID is in place already, rest is practically assembled, but I have not made any new photos yet.
Now you saw it naked

Handheld Buyer's Guide
Technological advances are revolutionizing the GA cockpit
Delorme In-Reach
This little unit truly is the world's most affordable satellite communicator. Since 90% of the Earth's surface lacks cell-phone reception, landing in a truly remote area could mean trouble for a pilot. Whereas PLBs can transmit your location, communication is very limited. In-Reach is a portable satellite communicator that fits into the palm of your hand. On its own, the unit will send pre-set messages to the GEOS International Emergency Response Coordination Center at the press of a distress button, and give delivery confirmation. It also transmits your GPS coordinates at intervals you select and provides remote tracking. Unlike a PLB, when paired with an Android phone through Bluetooth, In-Reach can send full text messages back and forth from and to anywhere on the planet regardless of cellular reception, and it can access topographical maps and pinpoint your location. Forget expensive satellite phones, since this unit costs $249.95, plus a monthly subscription of $9.95 to $49.95, depending on package. In-Reach floats, is waterproof and includes two AA lithium batteries that provide 60 hours of run time.
Garmin Aera 796
Garmin raises the bar once again with their handheld Aera 796. A next-generation EFB, the Aera changes the portable game. Right out of the box, what makes this unit different is Garmin's new "3D Vision" technology. It shows a virtual 3D behind-the-aircraft perspective of surrounding terrain derived from GPS and the onboard terrain database. Sliding your finger across the touch screen rotates the view, and shows land and water contours and features, obstacles, runways and airport signposts in relative proximity to the aircraft. Garmin's ultra-fast, 5 Hz (five times per second) update rate makes graphics move smoothly. The 796's seven-inch touch-screen display is readable even in bright sunlight and has a portrait or landscape mode. Pre-loaded georeferenced charts are available, or users can load Jeppesen charts through Garmin's ChartView service. A document viewer is built in, and a scratch-pad feature allows you to write clearances, ATIS, etc. Two serial ports allow connection to other hardware. Retails for $2,749.
Icom IC-A24; Sporty's SP400
When it comes to a solid and functional device, Icom's IC-A24 transceiver is a winner. Nothing fancy, it's a handheld aviation band receiver and transmitter that can double as either a backup radio or as a primary radio in LSA or vintage aircraft without electrical systems. All its features are well conceived: one-handed operation (critical for pilots), a large backlit display and keypad that remains lit until you turn it off, "flip-flop" frequencies with 10-channel storage and 200 frequency memory, an external DC power jack or optional batteries, and automatic noise reduction. The IC-A24 has both COM and NAB channels, while the smaller IC-A6 is just COM. The unit has a load of accessories available, including various clips and cases, headset adapters and chargers. The unit is made in Japan with quality components, which is rare these days. The A-24 lists for $599, though most dealers price it right around $300, while the A6 is even more affordable.
Spidertracks is a PLB that allows you to pinpoint your position when traveling, send out distress messages and displays your track graphically. The lightweight S3 unit is designed for either private or light commercial aircraft. It has an integrated keypad and sits on the dashboard of your aircraft with an adhesive bracket. The S3 is powered through a cigarette lighter plug or hardwired into the aircraft's electrical system. Once powered up, the unit sends your location at intervals based on which subscription plan you choose. If the unit stops sending position reports (as in a crash), a distress signal is sent with your GPS coordinates. Spidertracks works in conjunction with a website piece that acts as a sort of "flight following" monitor and turns on automatically when you take off. The website piece displays where you took off, where you flew, how far you flew, how fast and how high, and records it all automatically in your online logbook. Friends and family can also view your flights through the web feature. The S3 lists for $995 plus various subscription plans based on how many hours you fly.
Sporty's SP-400
If Sporty's knows one thing, it's what pilots really use and what they really want. It's this thought process that resulted in Sporty's own SP-400 handheld NAV/COM radio. The SP-400 is so powerful that it matches—and sometimes exceeds—panel-mounted gear. The unit's oversized, crisp, high-resolution screen makes it easy on eyes of any age. The SP-400's simplicity is refreshing: There are no menus or wheels or touch screens. You just type in the frequency using the perfectly sized keys. Easy-to-find AA batteries power the unit, and it all fits in the palm of your hand. On the technical side, the SP-400 sports flip-flop frequencies, and both a NAV and COM mode. It's the only portable unit in the industry with a big ILS and VOR display. It also features a built-in NOAA weather receiver. Several accessories are available. $399.
