Sensible style from Smeg. The DC122SS-1 is an efficient freestanding dishwasher in contemporary stainless steel. An A rating in both washing and drying performance means that it can provide top-notch results and it comes with a variety of features to help make your life easier. 12 place settings provide plenty of space for large loads and 5 separate programmes help to make sure that specialist cookware is treated with care. There's a FlexiZone which only washes one rack, so it's brilliant if you've got a few items you need cleaning. The delay timer is brilliant too, as you can set it to run at night when electricity rates are lower. With an A+ energy efficiency rating it helps to keep costs down and cut your carbon footprint too.

Pros: Good build quality, Quiet, looks good
Cons: Complicated, does not start, has a mind of its own
"Beautiful looking, stylish appliance that would grace any kitchen. When it starts the results are as good as you would expect from a SMEG dishwasher.
Sadly there is an however, it is so sensitive it has a mind of its own and only works when it feels like it. Sometimes when you have a heavy soiled load it decides that it only wants to do a eco wash, sometimes it simply wont work and we give up and try again in the morning. I am sure we have a Friday afternoon machine and a service call is required as its driving us nuts.
On average it takes us as long to get it going as washing by hand would have taken, very disappointed."

Pros: looks good
"This dishwasher is rubbish. It is difficult to load, the internal spokes are rigid and do not move enough to effectively load anything but plates. Cutlery tray falls over when full. Cups and glasses always have dirt in them at the end of the cycle that wasn't there before. Tumblers and cups cannot be loaded unless you have several to wedge against each other. Do not buy this dishwasher."

The DC122SS-1 has been awarded A ratings in both washing and drying, meaning that it is one of the best freestanding dishwashers available. As well as fantastic day-to-day performance it also has an assortment of features designed to give you a helping hand in the kitchen.
A built in anti-flood system means that if the seal is broken, the machine will automatically detect the leak and cut the water flow, making sure that your kitchen doesn't flood. A quick wash feature helps to entertain unexpected visitors without the need to waste water, energy or time on a full cycle. And in built sensors automatically adjust water use for smaller loads, cutting down on waste and saving you money.
The A+ energy rating means that it is extremely efficient, using less electricity whilst still delivering an incredible standard of cleanliness. It even comes with 1 year's warranty as standard to help give you a little extra peace of mind.

That fare increase is sticking. So are the chimichangas. At Love Field in Dallas, where Southwest Airlines is based and from which it competes with D/FW's American, fares are going up, but Southwest is easing the pain with a free ( free, no cost, complimentary, gratis) Mexican, or southwestern, food this week. The cheescake chimichangas are a sweet treat from an eatery that is based nearby and has outlets throughout the neighbouring states. This week, Southwest increased fares on most routes to and from Love by as much as $20, roundtrip. This is the first fare increase this year at its hometown hub.The majors raised their fares by $10 or so roundtrip, their seventh fare increase so far this year while Southwest has raised most of its fares six times so far this year on the rest of its system. But Southwest doesn't base its pricing on reaction or response to network carriers' fares, it says, but on its costs, and it is just like every other airline: it buys fuel and is paying for that black gold at the same record-high prices that everyone else is paying, almost $90 a barrel, up from $60 over the summer. And Southwest has lost much of the fuel-hedge cushion it enjoyed for a long time as its forward contracts expired.
So Love takes a hit, just as it becomes the showcase of Southwest's new gate and boarding areas and its new boarding process. To sweeten it all, a local eatery, Taco Bueno, will be giving away some 5,000 of its cheesecake chimichangas and other treats this week. Southwest has long given away doughnuts at Love Field but Taco Bueno wants to mark its fortieth anniversary by giving away the items on some 40 select flights from Love. Beats peanuts.

About the album
Classical music lovers all over the world will know her name: violinist Isabelle van Keulen is a soloist who, for many years now, has built a strong career worldwide. She plays with all the important orchestra's, performs in the famous concert halls and keeps on recording extraordinary CD's of a very high level. Take for instance her latest release of December 2012 with music of Prokofiev together with her duo partner Ronald Brautigam. But now she dares to do something totally different! She wanted to do this for many years and now her dream can come true to play and record the music of Astor Piazzolla. This music she has loved since she was a child of six years old. With her new ensemble she also plays in concert halls and she recorded this beloved tango music on SACD and on film (on DVD and Bluray) in January 2013 in mechelen (Belgium). In a bonus documentary that goes with the BluRay, Isabelle and her colleagues Ulrike Payer, Christian Gerber and Rudiger Ludwig tell about this music, about the tango technique and about their instruments. This not only gives us insight in Piazzolla himself but also tells more about the typical tango sound and how this is produced and why, according to the musicians, this music is so moving and goes straight to the heart!

The application of molecular and cellular biology, neurobiology, and pharmacology to the study of injury has shed new light on the pathophysiology and treatment of injury. As an example, study of the role of calcium as a mediator of cell death following brain injury has provided hope that pharmacologic interventions can inhibit this process (Saatman et al., 1996). The exchange of information from other fields has further enhanced the body of knowledge in injury pathophysiology. For example, injury researchers have drawn on cancer biology to study apoptosis, the process of programmed cell death, in relation to injury (Rink et al., 1995; Liu et al., 1997). The application of knowledge regarding apoptosis to the study of populations of cells that die after brain or spinal cord injury has resulted in more sophisticated thinking about a cascade of biochemical events triggered by injury. Knowledge of a greater number of biochemical steps in the process of cell death results in more possibilities for intervention. Promoting the exchange of information and techniques from other areas of research can increase the resources and talent available to solve the complex problems of injury etiology and prevention.
Additionally, there are new and promising developments in the study of the relationship between injury and disease. For example, clinical data have suggested that an episode of trauma to the musculoskeletal system can lead to osteoarthritis many years after the event. Recent biomechanics research has shown that nondebilitating trauma to the knee can cause long-term osteoarthritis in the knee joint (Haut et al., 1995; Newberry et al., 1997). Similarly, clinical data have shown that neuropathological changes in brain-injured patients exhibit striking parallels to brains of Alzheimer's patients (Graham et al., 1995, 1996). The relationship between neurodegenerative diseases and traumatic brain injury is even more convincing in experimental models of brain injury (Roberts et al., 1994) and suggests both a new direction for brain injury prevention and treatment research and the need to extend studies on injury outcomes to include debilitating neurodegenerative disorders.
The committee recommends an investment in research on the pathophysiology and reparative processes necessary to further the understanding of nonfatal injury causes and consequences, in particular, those that result in long-term disability.
The importance of behavioral research to injury prevention was highlighted more than three decades ago by William Haddon in his early publications on preventing motor vehicle injuries (Haddon et al., 1964). The behavioral sciences contribute to injury research by developing knowledge about psychosocial de-

Students supplying beer and meat to Devon pub
Posted: November 18, 2013|
Students at the Westcountry's college of the countryside are supplying a pub with their own beer and meat in a project to nurture home grown sustainable produce.
Bicton College has teamed up with The Fat Pig in Exeter to launch a beer named Bicton Beocca Bitter after hops from the college's walled garden were used to brew it.
The students also supplied rare breed pork and rose veal from Bicton Home Farm to the popular Exeter pub which now has the meat on its menu.
Hamish Lothian, owner of The Fat Pig and sister pub The Rusty Bike, said: "We started ordering rose veal from Bicton College after a meeting with Paul Redmore, their farm manager, and Rob Beach, foundation learning lecturer, led to some interesting discussions about sustainability and locally grown produce."
The Fat Pig said it prides itself on serving, local, home grown food and drink and was impressed with the quality of Bicton College meat.
As part of the Foundation learning programme at Bicton College, the students help rear and nurture the animals at Bicton Home Farm and are taught about the concept of field to fork or "welly to belly" as part of the studies.
The Fat Pig supports the programme and has taken on a Foundation Learning student for work experience in their kitchen, with plans to continue the move in the future.
Mr Lothian said: "We are always interested in local produce and this year we have taken some Hops from the walled garden, through Rob Beach and Janice Hindley, in the horticulture department, and created Triple B, Bicton Beocca Bitter, in our brewery."
Mr Lothian is keen to continue the relationship with Bicton College.
He said: "There's also the possibility of a new cider press that we will use to turn Bicton apples into cider and a supply of logs from the arboriculture team to fuel our smoke house."

Camillus A 2,770-square-foot gas station with a convenience store, Subway restaurant and car wash is being proposed for the corner of Newport Road and Main Street in the village of Camillus.
The plans were presented at the village's regular board meeting Monday night. The plans are an amended version of plans suggested about six months ago. Since that proposal, the village board has been working with the developer and the county to make necessary changes prior to voting on the site plan.
Should the developer get the OK from the village board, the convenience store would run 24 hours a day and seven days a week. The proposal at Monday's meeting was to operate the car wash 24-7, as well, though village officials took aim at that part.
The area would have room for 19 parking spaces, including eight at the gas pumps. The car wash area could accommodate up to six cars waiting for the bays. The developer says the addition of the store would create up to 20 new jobs in Camillus.
"This is a place for people to stop on their way to work or on their way back home," said Tim Bailey, of Keystone Associates, formerly Hawk Engineering.
Some key changes made to the proposal from the county's suggestions include adjustments to the water systems and, if the plans went through, there would no longer be a left turn onto Newport Road from the parking lot.
Only one person spoke against the proposal at the public hearing on the subject. The hearing will continue until the next meeting, Feb. 20, where residents can share their support or opposition on the project with village officials.
Attorney Dirk Oudemool spoke on behalf of property owners on Genesee Street who vehemently oppose the gas station.
"I don't think we need to sacrifice the future and the beauty of this village just to get something there," Oudemool said. "[Operating] 24-7 is an outrageous interference for people who live here. This does not need to be the hubbub of activity."

|'Is there any place that is free from evil? It is too simple to say that only the Nazis wanted war. These Communists wanted it too. It was the only way in which they could come to power. Many of my people wanted it, to be revenged on the Germans, to hasten the creation of the national state… Even good men thought their private honour would be satisfied by war. They could assert their manhood by killing and being killed. They would accept hardships in recompense for having been selfish and lazy. Danger justified privilege. I knew Italians – not very many perhaps – who felt this. Were there none in England?'
'God forgive me', said Guy. 'I was one of them.'

Dale Rogier competed in tractor pulls for 25 years, then laid low for 25 years.
Now the 83-year-old, rural Highland man is back in the game. He holds the top spot in his class (9,500 Pounds, Limited Pro Stock) with the Illinois Tractor Pulling Association.
"I'm a crazy old man, right?," Rogier said. "No really, we retired from farming last year, so I have a little more time on my hands. I had to get the OK from my family (for tractor pulling), of course. My wife got out-voted."
Rogier competed in the ITPA Track and Tractor Pull Tuesday night at the Madison County Fair, which runs through Sunday at Lindendale Park in Highland. It wasn't his best showing.
"We blew a high-pressure, water-injection hose (while pulling onto the track)," Rogier said. "I stopped because I didn't want to ruin the engine. But it's an easy fix.
"It's not how well you place. If you can finish a pull, load your tractor up, take it home, check it out, change the oil, fuel it and you're ready to go out again, you feel like you're a winner."
The fair kicked off Tuesday with livestock, exhibits, contests, carnival rides, live music, food and drink.
Upcoming arena events include the Combine Demolition Derby tonight, Car and Lawn Mower Demolition Derby on Friday, UMP Stock Car Racing on Saturday and TT Motorcycle Racing on Sunday.
Tonight's derby organizer, Dan Benhoff, has 16 contestants lined up. Their goal is to smash into other combines and debilitate them.
"You can pop the drive tires or try to break the back axle," said Benhoff, 32, of St. Rose. "When (the axle) is dragging behind them, they can't get enough traction to go through the mud.
"Those are the main two ways you try to take somebody out. Everything else is mechanical, if the engine breaks down or the clutch goes out."
This year, St. Rose Volunteer Fire Department will sell raffle tickets for a chance to ride around the arena track in a combine that Benhoff rebuilt.
Fairgoers also can help a local food pantry on Sunday.
"We'll have buy-one-get-one-free armbands (for carnival rides) if you bring two canned goods," said fair secretary Sue Zobrist. "That's a great offer. It's like buying your armbands for half price."
Today is Public Safety Day, Friday is Agriculture Day and Saturday is Military Appreciation Day at the fair. Sunday is Family Day with kids activities such as the Miss Pigtail Contest, Pedal Pull and Diaper Dash.
The popular Farm Follies talent show is Saturday.
"That's always a big draw for boys and girls because the winner gets to go and compete at the Illinois State Fair," Zobrist said.
This year's bands include Whiskey River tonight, Out of Focus on Friday, Strikeforce on Saturday and Cold Shot on Sunday.
Organizers hope the U.S. Air Force Band of Mid-America Hot Brass follow through with their performance on Saturday, but they're expected to be deployed any day.
Also in the fair entertainment lineup is the 4-H Fashion Revue tonight, the 4-H Livestock Auction on Friday and the Madison County Fair Queen Pageant on Saturday.
"We have camel and pony rides," Zobrist said. "We're had pony rides in the past, but not camel rides. We also have a petting zoo. That's open all day every day."

We have added the following products to your shopping cart from a previous visit:
Professional Ratings: 93 The Wine Advocate, 90 International Wine Cellar
Region: Ribera del Duero, Spain
Varietal: Tempranillo
Style: Earthy & Spicy
Alcohol By Volume: 14.5%
Item no. 122015
A deep, opaque cherry color, with strong purple hues. The nose has a very high fruit intensity of blackberries, raspberries, blackberries and black licorice, which are combined with roasted and spicy flavors typical of aging in French oak. On the palate, it is very fleshy and dense, very broad. It has balanced acidity, soft tannins and long, fruity and spicy finish. A treat to the palate and the senses... In short, a sip of Ribera del Duero.
Another knock-out offering from a winery founded in 2010, with some vineyards dating back to 1900, the 2011 Las Claras was aged in French oak, most of it new, for eight months prior to bottling. This fabulous bargain over-delivers in every sense. Its dense ruby/purple color is accompanied by abundant notes of lead pencil shavings, white chocolate, espresso roast and creme de cassis. This modern-styled Spanish, super-rich, intense red takes ripeness to the limit.
(fermented in stainless steel, the transferred to new French oak for malo and eight months of aging): Opaque purple. Seductively perfumed aromas of blackberry and cassis, cured tobacco and minerals, with a mounting vanilla quality. Lively, mineral-accented black and blue fruit flavors are firmed by youthful tannins and given lift by strong peppery spices. The tannins add shape and grip to the impressively long finish. Give this baby of a wine at least another year of bottle age.

Moto Trek'n to New York via the Trans Labrador Hwy
It's a 4+ hour ferry ride from Port aux Basques, Newfoundland to North Sydney, Nova Scotia. Good thing I grabbed my laptop after strapping the Beast down

as it gave me some time to start my RR.
This ferry is not like the ones in Washington. There are cabins for rent, game rooms, gift shops, a restaurant and bar, movies, some guy singing country music, an exercise room and even Wi-Fi.
The night before, I had decided to skip riding the 200 miles needed to get to the ferry terminal. Instead, I was going to get a late start and spend the night at Port aux Basques, catching the ferry the next morning. However, about 5AM I woke up and after about 30 minutes realized I wasn't going back to sleep. When I left Rocky Harbor it must have been in the high thirties becasue I had to crank up my electic vest and grips just to stay warm. But, it wasn't raining and the road was paved, so, making the trip in 3 hours to catch the ferry would not be a problem.
Pulling up to the ferry termial at 10:20AM I was told that the ferry was delayed by 2 hours. Oh well, the early ride was great, with little traffic, no moose sightings, no rain and by the time I reached the terminal, my right index finder had finaly thawed.
But, this trip didn't start at the Newfoundland ferry terminal. It started 12 days ago when I left Spokane to head for Albany to visit with my daughter. I thought about making a side trip to Nova Scotia, but then I remembered that the Trans Labrador Hwy was in the area. A quick look at google maps confirmed that it was indeed, on the way. In addition, Phase III from Goose Bay to the Cartwright junction, had been completed this year so I could ride all the way across Labrador without needing the ferry system.
To Albany by way of Labrador City (the start of the Trans Lab) east to Goose Bay, down to Blanc-Sablon, across to Newfoundland, down to Nova Scotia and then to New York - that's the plan :nod

At it again already, good on you:clap
I think I am still closer, if you like damns I would overnight in Churchill Falls and do the free tour, do some free laundry(buy soap) set in the sauna and take a swim in the indoor pool.
Remember to try and stay on New Foundland for at least 4 weeks, loads to see:deal
On the road again, yay! :clap :clap
Always love TLH assaults....
Pretty cool now and I guess you're getting some of hurricane/tropical/t-storms IGOR coming your way....rains by the gallons?? Ride safe...take your time.
From the beginning
Guess I should start from the begninning....
About 2 weeks ago I got my normal early start when I pulled out of the AAA office in Spokane at 1PM with a map of the Canadian Atlantic Provinces . I had asked for a map of Labrador and Newfoundland and after looking at the map I asked, "where's Labrador?" Oh" the lady says, "its right here", pointing to the map. What she was pointing at was a small south eastern corner of Labrador. I told that Labrador was much larger than that and she said, "Yeah, I think its out of proportion." :eek1 Well, there's only one road in Labrador that runs west to east so I wasn't too worried. I had previous loaded the Canada Provinces into my GPS, so I figured I could at least get pointed in the right direction.
That night, I made it to eastern Montana and after failing to find a state park in the area, I settled on a KOA campground. Having not been at a KOA, I was a little surprised when I was told about the live entertainment till 10PM, a pool and hot tub, showers, and even a well defined yard to park and put up my tent.

Wow, camping has changed a bit.
The following day was spent heading east in the rain and cold. Not much to talk about in eastern Montana or North Dakota. I'm sure the areas are nice, but I needed to get to Saint Catharines by Saturday to get new TKCs mounted on the Beast. That night I ended up west of Fargo in some small town hotel - sure glad I had some tequila with me :1drink
Another day and another campground later and I was at Baldone1's house :freaky The following day, I had new tires on the Beast. Balsone1 took me to visited Niagara Falls as well as a few fine gentlemen establishments in the area. Yeah, Baldone1 knows his way around the roads of Saint Catharines! He had me totally lost most of the time as we rode from attraction to attraction.
The next day, we took off towards Montreal. Baldone1 showed me the best roads of the area, and we ended up at the pub in Brokeville before heading back to the hotel and being told we were too loud while talking in the parking lot. What's up with that? it was only 4AM and I couldn't see any other cars in the area . What had we done, woke up the front desk person?
Badone1 took me to within 20 km of Montreal before deciding to head home. I made it past Quebec and camped at Mont St-Anne Provincial Park. As I lay in my tent listening to the rain, I was glad I was within striking distance of, Blanc-Sablon, the kick-off point of the Trans Labrador Hwy. Well, not exactly the Trans Labrador, but the start of 580 km of gravel road that would take me to Labrador City, the start of the Trans Labrador Hwy.
No pics of the Baldone and the settings he brought you to? :deal
Trans-Lab Here I Come
I woke up early to a nice sunny day, rode 360 km to Baie-Comeau and was greeted by this at the start of hwy 389

It's going to be a fun day!
Early that day, I'd had my first ferry crossing of the trip too

Nice Rr
Another trip I will have to live through you. Stuck again in Spoklahoma working. I gotta figure your method out. Also let Wendy know if she needs anything just ring me. Hope you are doing well and I assume you are getting plans rolling on Mongolia???:clap Stay safe.
2) Point in desired direction
3) Twist right hand
Oh goody, another Moto-Treks adventure to follow. :clap :lurk

Joseph Connor's job as a cook at a McDonald's in Hamden, Conn., never materialized, and he thinks he knows why — lookism.
Connor got the offer after attending a job fair in September of 2000. But when he and other newly hired workers reported to the restaurant to prepare for work, they were asked their clothing sizes for uniforms.
The 37-year-old New Haven resident, who weighs around 420 pounds, provided his, including a size 54 waist, says his lawyer, Gary Phelan of Klebanoff & Phelan in West Hartford, Conn.
After not hearing back, Connor called about the status of his job, only to be told his uniform pants weren't ready yet, recounts Phelan. For months, he got the same response. Finally, Connor went to the restaurant in person to talk to the manager, but was told a new manager was in charge and wasn't available to speak to him.
But at the restaurant that day, Connor noticed many of the other workers he had been hired with were already working behind the counter. And, Phelan adds, none were wearing uniform pants provided by the company.
Connor's Not Alone in Suing Over Looks
It was not long after that Connor decided to sue McDonald's for discrimination in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Connecticut Fair Employment Practices Act.
Last month, a federal judge refused to dismiss his almost two-year-old suit against the company. McDonald's did not return calls for comment.
But Connor's suit is just one of a series of recent cases where workers took legal action against their employer or prospective employer for allegedly discriminating against them or others based on their appearance.
While some of the cases seem like clear-cut discrimination, experts warn that in reality those who claim to have suffered discrimination because of their appearance have very little protection under the law.
"Appearance discrimination, as such, is not something that the law generally protects against," explains Sam Marcosson, associate professor of law at the University of Louisville in Kentucky. "That's where the problem comes in for a lot of people."
Few Laws Bar 'Lookism'
Because no federal laws protect against discrimination based on appearance — and only a few U.S. communities, like Santa Cruz, Calif., have such laws — plaintiffs often must prove the discrimination is based on other factors.
The basis of the discrimination could be alleged, for instance, to be a disability or the perception of a disability. Or the basis could be that the person is being discriminated against by being held to an appearance standard members of the opposite sex or another group aren't expected to meet. Also illegal is discrimination based on age.
"Even if an employer has a right to set certain appearance and grooming standards, it can only do so as long as it does not discriminate against a particular sex, race or religion," says Eric Matusewitch, deputy director of the New York City Equal Employment Practices Commission in Manhattan.
Connor's suit against McDonald's, for example, claims the company violated laws by regarding him as morbidly obese and not hiring him because of that perception. He also claims his weight is a disability under Connecticut state law and McDonald's is violating that by refusing to hire him.

Cardinals, Red Sox set to renew October rivalryBy BEN WALKER
the associated press | October 23,2013ap photo
Boston Red Soxs Koji Uehara throws during baseball practice Monday, Oct. 21, 2013, in Boston. The Red Sox are preparing to play the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 1 of the World Series on Wednesday.BOSTON Lance Lynn squeezed through a door leading into the Green Monster, shimmied along a cramped space behind the famed left-field wall and peered out a tiny metal slot in the Fenway Park scoreboard.
A little snug for me, the burly St. Louis pitcher said.
Plenty of Cardinals got their first look at the century-old ballpark during a workout Tuesday, a day before they opened the World Series against the Boston Red Sox.
The Red Sox saw a neat sight, too. As they took batting practice at dusk, a giant, vibrant rainbow formed high in the sky beyond center field. Slugger David Ortiz noticed.
Oh, yeah, he said. Its a Dominican thing.
Whatever, Big Papi. Something special always seems to happen when the Redbirds and Red Sox meet, from Stan the Man vs. the Splendid Splinter, to Gibby vs. Yaz, to Pedro vs. Pujols.
Now, theyre set to meet for the fourth time in that Octobery kind of air, as Cardinals Game 1 starter Adam Wainwright described it.
Jon Lester will oppose him Wednesday night, facing a lineup that got a late boost. Allen Craig, who hit a major league-leading .454 with runners in scoring position but hasnt played since Sept. 4 because of sprained left foot, is set to return.
I feel like Im in a good spot, said the cleanup man, who will be the Cardinals designated hitter.
Weather could be a factor. Temperatures are supposed to dip into the low 40s and rain is in the forecast.
Boston was listed as a slim favorite in the matchup between teams that tied for the big league lead in wins. The clubs havent met in the regular season since 2008, and Red Sox speedster Jacoby Ellsbury was looking forward to this pairing that some are billing as the Beards vs. the Birds.
It will be exciting to see some unfamiliar faces, he said.
Dustin Pedroia, Mike Napoli and many of their scraggly Boston teammates figure to get a good look at the Cardinals crop of young arms, led by postseason ace Michael Wacha and relievers Trevor Rosenthal, Carlos Martinez and Kevin Siegrist.
Ortiz is the link to the Red Sox team that swept St. Louis in the 2004 Series Boston never trailed at any point and ended an 86-year championship drought.
Obviously Im aware of the history of the two teams, Ellsbury said. Once the first pitch happens, all that goes out the window.
The Red Sox are trying to win their third crown in 10 years. St. Louis is aiming to take its second title in three years and third in eight seasons.
Some of us have some pretty bad memories of being here in 2004, and were looking to kind of right that ship, St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said.
Matheny was the Cardinals catcher that year, backed up by rookie Yadier Molina. Now Molina is considered the best defensive catcher in baseball, charged with trying to stop Ellsbury and a Red Sox team thats run a lot in the postseason.
Its fun to be part of this history, to be here in Fenway Park, to be part of this Series against Boston, Molina said.
Its different to play here overall. Playing defense, offense, pitching. Its different, but at the same time its fun, he said.
David Freese grew up in St. Louis and became MVP of the 2011 Series. He heard about Stan Musial vs. Ted Williams in 1946, knew about Bob Gibson facing Carl Yastrzemski in `67 and recalled watching on TV when Red Sox reliever Keith Foulke fielded Edgar Renterias tapper to finish off 2004.
I remember the comebacker that ended it. The sweep. You dont expect a World Series to end in four games, the 30-year-old third baseman said.
Freese said hed always hoped to get a chance to play at Fenway, and he got his first look Tuesday.
After Matheny stood near the mound and pointed out the particulars of the dirt triangle in center field, Freese stepped in for batting practice. He launched a long drive that hit high off the Green Monster in left-center, the loud thwack echoing all around the ballpark.
Thats my Wall ball, he hooted to teammate Matt Holliday.
Good for a hitter, maybe not so great for a pitcher.
A ballgame can change with one swing of the bat in this ballpark, said Wacha, who also climbed into the wall. Its pretty crazy. Crazy dimensions, thats for sure.MORE IN Wire SportsNEW YORK The United States win over Japan in the Womens World Cup final was the most viewed...

The Celtic midfielder, who has been on loan to Australian side Melbourne Victory since January, had just returned from a two-week absence due to the problem but limped off after just 39 minutes of a league match with Newcastle Jets last weekend.
Victory intend to wait until they have received the results of a scan before commenting on the injury officially but it is understood that Rogic is unlikely to recover before his loan expires next month.
The injury could affect the midfielder's prospects of playing in the World Cup this summer, with concerns having been raised already during a loan move beset by injuries. Rogic has played just eight times for Victory.

TS Cinnamon Capri is a who's been shooting for Black Tgirls for years
Stats – Height: 5'7″, Shoe Size: 8, Top or Bottom: Total top, Boobs: 36C, Best Feature: Ass ("you can look, but can't touch")
After the shoot was over, I caught up with Cinnamon Capri behind the scenes as she was getting ready to depart.
She really is a sexy lady. I thought she was hot in what she wore to the shoot. I actually had to go pick Cinnamon Capri up from here home in the San Francisco Bay Area. I got to the neighborhood, a nice, tight knitted community, and didn't know how to find her.
I told her where I was at and she she told me that she'd be over to direct me.
I heard the click clack of heels, but didn't know where they were coming from. She told me that I was close and that I needed to come around the corner. So I started my car and turned the corner.
Walking up the side of the road was a sexy lady with a long lean body, some amazing boobs and a huge ass.
Wow! I was thinking "she looks WAAAAY better in person that she does in the pictures I saw online!"
She got her stuff together and we got going.
When we got to the location, she got ready. She wanted to take a shower and freshen up, never a bad thing, so I got on the internet and messed around since I'd already gotten the place ready to shoot prior to Ms. Capri's arrival.
After emerging from the shower, she did her makeup and asked me what I thought. I liked it, so she immediately changed it. Well, really she just added some highlights after seeing a test picture.
I tried to avoid showing the models any pictures until it's too late (for them), because models are their own worst critic! She liked the pictures, though.
She was rocking the hot pink lingerie with white stockings and glittery high heels. A good look to compliment her dark, chocolate skin.
I like the models to feel comfortable, so we took a bunch of "clothed" pictures first, but it wasn't before long that the clothes came back off.
When work with models for Shemale Yum and Black Tgirls, many of them have a very difficult time getting hard and have an even worse time staying hard. Cinnamon was able to get hard with little effort.
She has the thickest cock of any model I've worked with, which is staying a lot since I've worked with some pretty big girls.
She likes to top, so you power bottoms better be ready if you come across her (which I'm sure you are right now).
My favorite body part on Cinnamon Capri is her huge, shapely ass which create a nice symmetry with her big boobs.
She has not taken hormones for years at this point, because her big selling point is that she's a top, so she can't have hormones killing her libido.
She's an avid practitioner of self-gratification. She was able to jack-off earlier in the day and still shoot a huge cum shot at the end of video two!
There were a couple of great angles

Mick, at first glance i thought Degalle Anderson would be a fight id love to see, but the more i think about it, i can see a repeat of Degalle vs Smith. Andersons found his limit imo. That being said so has Degalle!Posted November 16, 2012 5:12 am

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — The Idaho Transportation Department this week agreed to new regulations allowing transgender drivers to change the sex designation on their driver's licenses without a note from a surgeon, after two people complained that previous policy violated their civil rights.
APNewsBreak: Idaho OKs transgender licenses
In April 2011, the highway agency began requiring a signed surgeon's note signifying the individual "had undergone a complete surgical change of gender."
Early this year, two people were blocked from getting their driver's licenses.
Through the American Civil Liberties Union, they complained this was an invasion of their privacy as well as an arbitrary requirement, since only a fraction of people undergoing a gender transformation do so through surgical intervention.
Idaho's agency will now require a court order or doctor's affidavit attesting to a gender change, according to a policy director Brian Ness signed Monday. That's similar to requirements in most states.
Erika Falls, one of the two people who complained, has been without a driver's license since February after having it revoked.
A student at Boise State University, Falls said losing her license was an enormous inconvenience: Her partner had to take her to class and applying for jobs became a hassle. And simply sticking with her old Idaho driver's license with a male gender marker on it was out of the question, because it put her personal safety in jeopardy, she said.
"It was scary, going out and handing my ID to someone, and having that male marker," Falls said. "They see the male marker, I don't necessarily know them, or trust them. It's very dangerous."
She finally received her temporary license Tuesday.
The other person, Andrew Geske, received his temporary license with a male gender marker in January, only to receive an ITD revocation letter shortly thereafter, on grounds he had submitted no surgical proof.
Geske, also a BSU student, said he didn't have the luxury of going without a license — he's a caregiver for a family member — and he re-applied for a license as a female.
With this week's change, he plans to re-apply again Wednesday.
"It's major brownie points for personal liberties," Geske said. "It's really encouraging that even in a state with a fairly conservative Legislature and a long history of pretty conservative policies, all it took was sitting down and having an informative conversation to secure rights for a group that's pretty thoroughly marginalized across the board. That just felt good."

Maybe I got your question wrong and John T already gave the right answer, but I understood you referred to the system beep, the one you were used to get in the old good days when you would keep a key pressed for too long, under MS-DOS. :)
If that is what you were asking. Then you have to disable the module responsible for that in the kernel (don't panic... it's dead easy!).
From terminal, as root user (or by doing sudo):
If that solves your problem, than you can permanently tell the kernel not to load those modules anymore and you can adde them to the file
Hope this helps!

Nowadays, Claire Danes may be synonymous with her secretive CIA character Carrie Mathison on Showtime's "Homeland," but in the latest issue of Interview magazine she keeps pretty much nothing under wraps.
The three-time Emmy Award-winning actress looks stunning in gold on the November cover.
Inside the mag, the 34-year-old reveals even more in a tasteful topless portrait that is equally glamorous.
While getting interviewed by living legend Dustin Hoffman, Claire chatted about returning to the action-thriller set so soon after giving birth to her son Cyrus.
"It was exhausting, but also exhilarating," Claire said. "I had just come out of my mommy cocoon and my cushy, mushy love planet. So entering that mania at that point was not as enjoyable."
