Cost likes to stuff dried black Asian"flower" mushrooms. Because these can be expensive and hard to find, we asked if we could try fresh shiitake mushrooms instead. Cost agreed, and we loved the results.
Look for shiitakes with caps that have rounded edges to better hold the stuffing.
Active time: 25 min Start to finish: 1 hr
YIELD: Makes 4 (first course) servings
ACTIVE TIME: 25 min
TOTAL TIME: 1 hr
Soak porcini in hot water in a glass measure until softened, about 30 minutes. Pour liquid through a paper towellined sieve into a small bowl to remove grit. Discard solids.
Make stuffing and fill caps:
Put stuffing ingredients in a bowl and stir together in one direction with your hand until well blended.
Arrange shiitake caps, smooth sides down and close together, on a work surface. Put 1 teaspoon cornstarch in a fine sieve, then dust tops of mushrooms. (This will help stuffing adhere.) Stuff shiitake caps with shrimp mixture, packing gently.
Make sauce and braise mushrooms:
Stir together porcini liquid, oyster and soy sauces, salt, and sugar and reserve.
Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Add mushrooms, stuffing sides down, and cook until golden brown on bottom, about 2 minutes. Carefully turn mushrooms over and cook 2 minutes more.
Add ginger and garlic to pan (between mushrooms) and cook 1 minute. Pour in reserved sauce mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until mushrooms are tender, about 3 minutes.
Transfer mushrooms to 4 small plates and keep warm. Boil sauce, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes and spoon over mushrooms.

Tracking an invader: Science class studies zebra mussels with DNRAlthough Nathan Olson knows a lot about zebra mussels, they are still surprising to him.
By: Celeste Beam, Northland Outdoors
Although Nathan Olson knows a lot about zebra mussels, they are still surprising to him.
Olson, an invasive species specialist with the Department of Natural Resources (DNR), spent last Friday afternoon with students from Jefferson High School.
The group of environmental science students, along with their teacher, John Esbjornsson, and Olson, walked along the shore and in deeper water at L'Homme Dieu Beach on Highway 29, as well as at the channel between Lakes L'Homme Dieu and Carlos.
The number of newly settled zebra mussels found by the students was impressive, said Olson.
"We knew there were a lot of veligers [baby zebra mussels] this summer, but it was surprising how many have successfully settled on rocks and other things in L'Homme Dieu," said Olson in an e-mail to the newspaper on Monday.
"Also, the amount of mussels that now exist in Carlos is amazing."
Olson noted that this is only the second summer since zebra mussels were first confirmed in Douglas County's chain of lakes.
Last year, some zebra mussels were found on rocks at the channel between Lakes L'Homme Dieu and Carlos, but this year, Olson said they were found in abundance on plants, rocks, sticks and native mussels all throughout the lakes.
"It appears we have gone from only a few zebra mussels spotted in July of 2009 to zebra mussels being virtually innumerable after the summer of 2010," said Olson.
He talked about the size of the zebra mussels and that they are much smaller this year than last year. The reason, he said, could be due to the extensive colonization by the zebra mussels this year compared to last year.
Last summer, zebra mussels could be found in a ring around rocks, but this year, they are so numerous, that they may be limiting their own growth rate, surmised Olson.
He also noted that weather and the temperature of the water could have something to do with the over abundance of the zebra mussels.
Last September, Olson was still snorkeling in the chain of lakes and the water temperature was slightly more than 70 degrees. This year, the water temperature had already dropped to around 65 degrees at the end of September.
The higher water temperature later in the year could have given the mussels a chance to get bigger last year, noted Olson.
Despite the reasons, people have to be aware that the mussels' small size makes them easier to unknowingly be transported.
"Everyone must be extra cautious that they are inspecting, cleaning, drying and draining water from all of their boats and equipment before anything is transported to another body of water," he said.
Find out more about the zebra mussel problem in Friday's Echo Press – including an infestation in Gull Lake and a promising new study that reveals a possible solution.

Originally written on Project Spurs | Last updated 11/30/12
When San Antonio Spurs' Gregg Popovich wasn't drawing the wrath of NBA Commissioner David Stern during last night's Spurs-Heat clash, Pop was being his usual self during the in-game interviews with TNT. Except this time, he was being asked the questions by Charles Barkley which you knew meant instant comedy. "The Chuckster" did time as the sideline reporter for TNT during the game and took his shot with Pop during the game. And in true Pop fashion, he couldn't resist messing around with Barkley.

I like what you have started, but the worgen looks like its not paying any attention to the troll as if he is going to run past him. I would maybe turn his head towards the troll. Also his hands and arms could use a wee bit of repositioning,I would bring the left hand down some more. Swordsmen typically held one hand just below the cross guard and the second closer to the pummel. That is my two cents anyway.
June 22nd, 2014 #3
Thank you for your reply. You probably right about the hand, i will improve that next time!
New version with some change.
I'm still searching for improving the depth, maybe some kind of battleground with rocks, corpse, etc... dunno.
I'm trying to have a "balance of power" between the two character. You cant really say who will win at the end, it's the middle of an epic duel, two powerful character all in muscles and rage, you just know for sure there will be blood. It's the eternal battle between the horde and the alliance.
Next changes will be:
- Better detph by defining the ground, like the middle of a giant battle ground... or something else.
- Reworking the shoulder armor of the worgen
- Troll position & face can be better
- Worgen's sword can be more epic probably
If you see something else, let me know

Well I was going to say something about how the two swords didn't look like they were connecting, but looking at the new and improved version, you've already fixed that issue. And the changes in the foreground do help to make the (left hand) characters pose way more dynamic.

U.S. Admiral Taking Threat of North Korean ICBMs Seriously
The commander of U.S. military forces in the Pacific on Tuesday said he takes the threat of North Korea's work on strategic ballistic missiles seriously, regardless of their current capabilities.
Pyongyang thus far has revealed two developmental intercontinental-ballistic missiles. The older of the two, the Taepodong 2, had its first successful test-launch nearly a year ago while the newer one, the road-mobile KN-08, has never been flight-tested.
"For our military planning perspective, when I see the KN-08 road mobile missiles that appear in a North Korean military parade, I am bound to take that serious, but for not only the peninsula but also the region, as well as my own homeland," U.S. Pacific Command head Navy Admiral Samuel Locklear said in remarks reported on by the Yonhap News Agency.
Western missile experts are divided about just how far along Pyongyang is in its development of the KN-08, however they agree the mockups displayed at a July parade were more realistic than versions seen a year earlier.
In remarks to journalists at the Washington Foreign Press Center, the admiral said North Korea wants Washington to think it has the ability to carry out ICBM strikes on the continental United States.
"Whether they are real or not, or whether they have the capability or not, [the] North Korean regime wants us to think they do and so we plan for that" Locklear was quoted as saying by the Associated Press.
Meanwhile, a high-ranking anonymous South Korean official on Tuesday told Yonhap that while China's recent proposal for a path to rejuvenating nuclear negotiations with North Korea was "forward-looking," it did not go far enough in resolving U.S. and South Korean concerns. Seoul and Washington are reluctant to return to the frozen negotiations unless Pyongyang first demonstrates a concrete commitment to denuclearization.

This year was an abnormal. The winter was a lot longer and spring wasn't until summer break . When it is cold the campus seem empty because no one is walking around unless they have to. But when it is a nice sunny day people are playing frisbee or tanning or chilling in hammocks.
The parking lot for Freshmen and sophomores is really far away from the Girls dorms . It really bad when it is freezing and you have to walk in the cold at night
Party Scene:
This is a Christian College, where drinking is prohibited. We have Chapel every Wednesday for entire college student body and faculty. If you interesteded in obtaining Bible knowledge or going into ministry, Asbury is a good fit.
Greek Life:
We don't have Greek Life at Asbury. The only Greek life we have is for Hispanics, African-Americans, and Asians.
Party Scene:
We don't really have a "nightlife" at Asbury. If you consider nightlife to be going out and getting a drink, then Asbury isn't really what you are looking for. If you consider nightlife to be hanging with friends, playing frisbee or just walking around, then this is the place you have been looking for.
I feel that we have some good athletic programs, but not all of them are the best. This year, our women's basketball team did really well. Actually both teams did great. We are adding a lacrosse team to Asbury, and things are improving. We also aren't NCAA; we participate in NAIA.
Drug Safety:
I think we have good safety at the campus. I mean, I do not know of anyone at this University that does drugs or drinks alcohol. There is actually rules here that prevent students from participating in that kind of activity. I mean, that doesn't mean that some students still do not do that. But, if you are looking for a school that doesn't pressure you into partying and doing drugs, then this is the school for you.
The computers available on campus are the newes. But wireless internet connection is awful!!!
Good offerings. Some classes are irrelevant to desired major that must be taken.
Facilities are great. Not very many students involved unless they participate.
Most of the teachers on campus are very nice and are willing to help you with anything if you need it. Since it is a small campus, there are smaller class sizes and you can get to know your teacher on a more personal level. However, since Asbury is a smaller college, there are not as many classes you can take as a student compared to a big public university.
While the business department is not very big on Asbury's campus at the moment, it is growing. Asbury is doubling the size of their business department faculty next year. There are also internships available for students, both on (starting in the fall) and off campus. All of the business professors on campus have also spent time working at companies before becoming teachers, so they are very knowledgeable in their field.
Health & Safety:
I feel very safe on campus. Asbury is located in a small, safe community, and I do not even feel unsafe walking around campus alone at night. I never feel in danger on campus, and there is security roaming around campus constantly.
Compared to other schools, Asbury is pretty strict. There is a dress code (that is becoming more lenient), but students are not allowed to wear sweatpants or shorts to class (however, some teachers do not care). This is because the university wants their students to dress professionally. Asbury also has a curfew starting at 12 (1am on Friday nights), but you are allowed extensions, so it is not terrible. However, there is absolutely no drug or alcohol use allowed on campus. Since this is a Christian school, the university wants the students to keep a high moral standard.
There are computers to use both in the library and the student center on campus. Students can also choose between a mac computer or a pc, which gives a variety of computers to use and makes students more comfortable. There is wireless access all over campus, and sometimes it has problems, but it usually does not last longer than a few minutes. Asbury also gives students a pretty large printing budget, so there is no need to buy your own printer.
Everything at Asbury is within walking distance. A student can walk from one end of campus to the other in about fifteen minutes.
Drug Safety:
It depends what group you hang out with. Drugs are present, but not prevalent.
We have over 30 countries represented, but the primary race is white. For some, color means a stoop lower than the "smartest" people. But for most, Asbury is a very accepting and loving school that reaches out towards countries for ministries and mission trips.
Sometimes Internet will just go down for 5-30 minutes. Kind of weird, but it's not too bad. The school computers are generally good all the time, though.
Campus Quality:
looks pretty nice, some buildings are outdated, but generally it is a beautiful campus. There are many on-campus places to hang out, and some student fellowships just off-campus which are also available. There are many activities and events planned throughout the year. Combine this with a smaller population, and campus starts to feel like family.
I am an african american student here on campus and I've counted, there are about 12 of us in total on campus out of about 1,600 students. That is just not right.
Health & Safety:
There is literally no reason to ever not feel safe here. It is in a small town and nothing happens in it. I walk around the town in the middle of the night and never have any problems
I received a great scholarship to be here but I know that does not work for all. If I can offer some hope though, I was never one to think I would actually win these things but I won the scholarship so go for it!
It was super easy getting into my program. Since my major is Equine Managament, I was able to come in with little knowledge and still be accepted. This specific program starts from the basics and builds up to the harder stuff; it allows you to get a feel of what it will be like to be in this field after graduation so that if you are uncomfortable with this type of major, you will know sooner rather than later to choose something different. Along with classes that actually take place in a classroom, there are also many classes that are hands on, which I personally enjoy. This type of program was relatively easy to apply for; there aren't any hoops to jump through or unexpected things to account for. People here are very accomadating and helpful.
Campus Quality:
We have chapel three times a week where you can worship and delve into the word. We mix up the styles of worship, from hymns and organ playing, to comteporary music with the student band. We also have speakers that range from all over the US, parts of the world, our faculty, and even our students; they talk about the different experiences in their life and how God has impacted them personally.

Every Wednesday night, there is a Tamil-language bible study conducted by Nigel Rajadurai.
If you are interested in what God's word says and how it applies to our lives today, and you wish to study this in Tamil and English, then please come by any Wednesday night that you are available. The goal is to study the Bible in its entirety.
I started the group because there wasn't any other type of group like this. I've met some great folks in the group who have become close friends and have also met some amazing business owners.

Food Network Kitchens Food Tips: Cast-iron cornbread and fried chickpeas
Crispy treats: Fried chickpeas are a spectacularly addictive bar snack that translate well to cocktail parties — though deep-frying is always tricky — because there's almost nothing to them.
To make them, drain, rinse and thoroughly dry canned chickpeas (make more than you think you'll need; they go quite fast). Heat a few inches vegetable oil to about 350 degrees or so; while the oil heats, dry the chickpeas again just to be on the safe side.
Add the chickpeas to the oil and fry until golden-brown and crispy; dry on paper towels and toss with smoked paprika and salt. They're a natural with beer, though they go quite well with sherry, white wine and even cocktails.

NEWARK – When struggling from beyond the arc, who better to get you out of your slump than your 6-8 and 6-9 forwards?
Sure, it's unorthodox, but for a team that entered the game shooting 3 of 29 from three at home through two games, Seton Hall would take a three ball wherever they could get it. Even if it was a bit unconventional.
But both the head coach and players weren't surprised that it was the front court that got the team out of the rut, hitting the first three three-pointers in a 63-54 victory over St. Peter's College.
"A 6-foot-9 white guy better be able to shoot the basketball because they can't do much else," head coach Kevin Willard said of Patrik Auda's three. "And Herb works hard at his shot. When Herb takes a good one, he's going to make shots. It's a matter of getting him away from the ones where he feels like he needs to jack them up."
Jordan Theodore (13 points, 10 assists) reiterated his coach more concisely.
"Definitely [I thought those two could get us out of the slump]" the 6'0" senior guard said. "Pope's just been working on his shot and Patrik's just a great shooter.
Willard joked after the last game that Martin Brodeur stops everything in the Prudential Center, so maybe he's been playing goalie on their basket. So maybe the Devils net-minder took the night off after playing a game this afternoon.
"The Devils lost," Willard joked when talking about the improvement in threes. "That's the first thing I ask when I get in the building now. How'd Martin [Brodeur] play?"
Or maybe the Pirates got out of their early season slump, going 8-22 from three (and 6-14 in the first half).
Either way — and let's go with the latter — Seton Hall (5-1) can put to rest their struggles from three at home to rest. At least for now.
Sure they took 22 three-pointers — which may be seen as too many — but isn't the old adage to get out of a shooting slump, a shooter's got to shoot?
And according to Willard, they should be taking more.
"I'd actually like to take more to be honest with you. I really would," Willard said. "You got to be able to shoot the basketball to win games in college. You really do… I'd like to take 25 a game — if we could ever get there. Our pace isn't fast enough to do it."
While taking that many threes may seem like too much — especially for a team that's not known to have sharp shooters from deep per se — that's been Willard's M-O.
And tonight's performance may have given them the reassurance they need moving forward.
"Confidence," Theodore said that was the difference tonight. "We're not going to stop shooting. It's in our system. Coach likes us to shoot the three and it's not going to stop. You can't control the ball. Sometimes it's going to fall, sometimes it's not. Tonight they were falling."

ROANOKE, VA. — Virginia Tech will replace temporary memorials on the campus lawn with 32 engraved stones for those killed by a student gunman, officials announced Thursday.
The temporary stone memorials were placed in a semicircle near the administration building by student group Hokies United after Seung-hui Cho fatally shot 27 students, five faculty members and himself April 16.
The stones, each marked now with only a piece of paper bearing a victim's name, will be offered to the families of victims, President Charles Steger said.
The new stones will be an intermediate memorial while officials look for a permanent site elsewhere on the Blacksburg campus, Steger said.

Defender Aleksandar Lukovic believes Serbia's qualifying record should give them plenty of confidence for the FIFA World Cup™ finals.
Radomir Antic's side topped a group including France to secure a spot in South Africa but their form in the build-up to the tournament has not been so impressive. Defeat by New Zealand and a goalless draw with Poland were followed this weekend by a 4-3 win over Cameroon, but Lukovic remains confident of progress from a group including Germany, Ghana and Australia.
"The performances that we gave in qualifying gives us the right to think so," the 27-year-old said. "We have individuals who play at big European clubs but the results in qualifying we achieved as a group, which is more important than any individual, and that is our strength."
Serbia's solid defence was a major feature of their qualifying campaign and Lukovic insists they can tighten up after a shaky performance against Cameroon.
"We have made mistakes but I'm sure we can fix them," he added.

chewing my underwearPosted by: Jennifer
Category: Behavior Problems
Posted on: August 05, 2001 at 10:11:48
My question is my 4 mo old jack Ernie recently started chewing on my underwear. I have never noticed this before until the other night when he opened the bathroom door while I was in the shower. When I got out I noticed that he chewed a big whole in my underwear. I put all my clothes in the happer and he knocks it over and gets stuff out. I have tried everything to stop this he has already destroyed one pair. I need to know what would be good to stop him from doing this again. Thanks again.

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Farenheit.
2. In a bowl, take apple slices, and pour lemon juice on it to avoid browning. Toss.
3. Add sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in it. Mix to coat well.
4. For topping, in a large mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, and margarine.
5. With pastry cutter, cut margarine and mix it with flour. Mash and mix well with your finger tips. Do not use spoon.
6. Fill the pie crust with apple slices. Spread it evenly and pour cinnamon and flour mixture, if any left, on it.
7. Spread topping on pie crust.
8. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and place pie pan on it.
9. Pop it in oven and bake for about 40 minutes. Pork with knife and check if the apples are nice and tender.
10. Serve Dutch apple pie with vanilla ice cream.
You can also use oatmeal for topping.
Apples shrink when cooked, so fill the crust really high.
If required cover baking dish with foil, to avoid too much browning and also to speed up cooking.

I had this concern when I picked up a 2005 300 EXC a few years ago. I only found a few people who had actually had a piston seize and they occurred when running at or near WOT and then closing the throttle. Here's why:
The engine and exhaust are hot with little excess fuel and oil like you have at lower RPM. Close the throttle and the engine is still spinning along, but the fuel and air flow just got chopped. Now, when the piston comes down, there isn't a pressurized charge in the crank case to get pushed up the intake ports. This lack of incoming pressure allows the pressure pulse from the expansion chamber to push hot, dry exhaust gas farther back than normal. (go read here
or google wet line two stroke jetting) Normally, the pulse from the expansion chamber pushes most of the fresh, wet charge back into the cylinder leaving just enough to keep the piston, rings and power valve cool and lubed. When the pressure pulse pushes the fresh charge too far back, hot, dry exhaust gas comes in contact with the pistong and rings at the exhaust port, heating them up and burning off teh oil film. This is when the engine will seize.
The solution I heard that made the most sense was to slow down with WOT engine braking. If you push in the kill putton and twist the throttle to full open, you are pushing a fresh, wet charge through the engine, without burning it. After a couple seconds, you will have filled the expansion chamber with a wet fuel / air mix as well.
The next step needs to be done in the correct order to keep from blowing the expansion chamber off the exhaust flange.
Doing it backwards won't always lead to a big bang, but it can. Close the throttle, then release the kill switch and the engine will return to life. Then resume riding normally. After being at WOT with the ignition off (where you will observe more engine braking than you are used to from your two stroke) the pressure pulse in the expansion chamber can push the fresh charge as far back as it wants because gas in the expansion chamber is also cool and wet.
The issue is that a perfectly jetted two stroke at WOT won't seize, but when you close the throttle abruptly without reducing the engine speed as quickly, the jetting is no longer perfect because the pressure in the exhaust is much greater than the pressure coming from the crank case.
This can happen as easily in a long sand wash as it can on a road section.
I first learned about this subject when a friend began dual sporting a CR250R. We made him get an FMF Q because the shorty silencer someone had put on it was way too loud. What we didn't realize was that by going to a more restrictive silencer, the pressure pulse would become stronger and he would need richer jetting to accomodate it. Having only dealt with four strokes at that point, I figured a more restrictive exhaust would just make it run a bit richer and the worst that would happen is a fouled plug. I was dead wrong and he seized the piston when he closed the throttle to slow down for a turn on a road section.
EDIT: and I'm now dualsporting a 1999 Husky WR250

What's so good?
By Bri Guy | Dec 17, 2012 | Total plays: 19,112
The band consists of Kimmy, Sklar, and Nat (they all hail from Hollywood) as well as new member Chris (who's from Orlando). True to their name, Beach Day sing about enjoying the sun and sand of South Florida. Basically, they sound like a 60s girl band mixed with The Beach Boys. With this review, I'm featuring their latest single "Walking On The Streets," which is a great surf rock song with a bouncy retro vibe.
Performing at IWAN the Bubble, Beach Day played a solid set featuring songs from two 7"s and a few songs I'd never heard of... but I was bouncing to all of it! After the show, I talked to Kimmy about vinyls and their music. They are all pretty chill people, and if you're living in Florida you're in luck because they're touring this December and January. Check out the dates here.
If you want more info about the Beach Day, follow them on Twitter and/or send them a shout out on Facebook.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Brad1000000 Standard Suburban Aloft Not much remarkable about this hotel. It's a typical Aloft that's generally better than any other hotel in the Bolingbrook and greater southwestern suburbs if you don't need an on-site restaurant. The rooms are comfortable, but the thru-wall heating/AC unit has to run pretty frequently to keep it warm/cool enough. There are no "extra" platinum benefits here, just the standard points or "free" breakfast, which is a $10/person voucher for the snack bar area. I'm always disappointed in the food selection; looks like they could have a local bakery provide some fancier/better pastries and cookies. I don't even bother looking at what's offered anymore.

We did not know what to expect when we arrived. We enjoyed ever second that we spent at the hotel. We even played pool, which was a bonus for us. The location is perfect for shoppers and we both agreed that this may be the place for our annual after the holiday getaway. Thanks Again Aloft Staff!! January 23, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by RSS0815 Disappointed with comfort The bed and bedding were very uncomfortable. The bedspread looked very worn out. Was not able to get a good nights sleep with the noise in the hallway. Pool area was very uninviting. Staff were nice and helpful. January 4, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by SgtWayne Nice hotel My only issue was that the bar closes early if things are slow. December 31, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by TravelTooMuch1 Great Service The service was fantastic. Christina is welcoming and gives fantastic service at the bar. Tony at the front desk is easily one of the best greeters in a hotel I have ever visited. These two are unique in most hotels and I know as I travel 3 weeks a month. My schedule will take me to the Chicago area quite a bit in the future and I will be returning because of the service. While Christina and Tony offered excellent service, the often unappreciated engineering staff deserves the biggest thank you. There was a leak in my room bathroom and engineering responded immediately and corrected the issue. He was polite and quick and deserves to be recognized. He offered to get me into another room and was quick to apologize for the situation. December 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Batman1979 Luxurious Hotel with Excellent Staff I travel for a living and this is one of my favorite places to stay. The rooms are modern, clean and very different then any other hotel. I enjoy sitting at the bar having a cocktail, talking with Christina the bartender. The folks at the front desk are always friendly and thank me for my business. I recommend this hotel to any business traveler who wants something different then your boring old hotel room.

Wimbledon Men's Finals Predictions: Rafael Nadal vs. Novak Djokovic Free Pick
- Updated: July 1, 2011
When the dust settles in tennis betting action on Sunday, Novak Djokovic will be the world's new No. 1 player. However, he's going to be up against it when he takes on the man that will be dropping to No. 2, the defending champion of Wimbledon, Rafael Nadal in Sunday's finale at the All England Club.
Rafa is definitely no stranger to Centre Court here in London. He has already won this tournament twice (2008 and 2010), and he has been a finalist and lost to Roger Federer twice before. Nadal has already won four of the last five Grand Slam events, with his lone exit coming this year in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open. The Spaniard would love nothing more than to be able to claim yet another crown, which would be his 11th major title in his career. This has definitely been a man that has looked relatively mortal along the way to the Wimbledon finale, as Nadal had to play four sets against Juan Martin Del Potro, Mardy Fish, and Andy Murray to reach this point, but there hasn't been a player push Rafa to the brink with that fifth set since a first round match against John Isner at the French Open a few weeks ago. About the only thing that can keep Nadal down is his serve, which at times is certainly not as dominating as that of some of his peers, including that of Djokovic. However, with 27 service breaks already under his belt, there is no doubt that Nadal can return like none other in the world.
Performing in Grand Slam events has always been a bugaboo for Djokovic, especially against the likes of Federer and Nadal. It seems like he is always a semifinalist, but rarely a finalist in events like this one, and claiming glory is even more elusive. The Serb has reached the semifinals of three Wimbledon championships, but this is his first finale. He has only won the Australian Open twice in his career, and Djokovic would love to add his second Grand Slam win of the year and his third in his career on Sunday. However, the Serb has another big time hurdle to overcome. He is just 11-16 in his career against Nadal, and he is only 0-5 all-time against him in major events, including last year at the US Open when he lost in four sets in the finale. The good news though, is that Djokovic has already beaten Nadal four times this year, including twice on clay courts, where the Spaniard is the king. The only question is whether Djokovic is ready to step up and perform admirably in the big time, and whether that will be enough.
We just don't see it happening when push comes to shove. There are still better days ahead for Djokovic, but all too often when we see a change in the world's No. 1 rankings, we see the man that is abdicating that top spot come forth with a dominating effort against the man that is going to be taking his throne. Djokovic will be the top ranked man in the world when this is said and done, but Nadal -155 is clearly the right play to make on the Wimbledon odds in the men's final.

"Images can't be viewed until the roll is finished."
This actually sounds like one of the more interesting features. That and the fact your shots are (somewhat artifically, admittedly) grouped into groups of 24, like a roll. It's just taking the film cues one step further than just the (perceived, wrongly or rightly) "look". Though I can see how some might see it is an unnecessary step back.

RadVision Jumps in Tel Aviv After Avaya Stake Buy Reports
Dec. 14 (Bloomberg) -- RadVision Ltd., the Israeli maker of video-conferencing systems, jumped to an eight-month high in Tel Aviv after Globes and TheMarker reported that Avaya Inc. is in talks to buy the company for a premium.
RadVision jumped 18 percent to 37.01 shekels, or the equivalent of $9.72, the highest level since April 3, at the 4:30 p.m. close in Tel Aviv. The U.S. traded shares surged 15 percent yesterday to $9.72.
Avaya, a phone-equipment maker owned by private-equity firms Silver Lake and TPG Capital, is close to completing the acquisition of RadVision for $300 million, or $16.17 a share, TheMarker reported yesterday, without saying how it obtained the information. Globes said yesterday the company is in talks to be bought for $200 million, without citing anyone.
Deb Kline, an Avaya spokeswoman, declined to comment on the reports when contacted by Bloomberg. RadVision said it wouldn't comment on the report in a statement read over the phone.

Weekend traffic: Full slate of road work comes with fireworks, festivals
The three-day Independence Day holiday weekend looks to be warm and dry, just about perfect for watching the scores of Twin Cities area fireworks displays that will draw crowds to shows both large and small Friday and Saturday nights.
Reduced transit service on Friday might catch commuters off guard
With many people taking Friday off and turning Independence Day into a long holiday weekend, Metro Transit and suburban transit providers are expecting fewer riders and are adjusting service to reflect decreased demand. That could catch some commuters off guard as the official holiday is not until Saturday.

Metro Transit will run fewer Northstar trains on Friday, and none on Saturday.

Nature's Touch Day Spa's all-natural sugaring-solution components—water, sugar, and lemon—sound more appropriate for a recipe than a hair-removal treatment. However, the solution attaches to individual hair strands rather than the skin, so it removes hair with significantly less pain than traditional waxing while also exfoliating the skin. Staff members can enhance this service by adding all-natural pine resin to the treatment, which ousts stubborn hairs and prevents ingrown hairs. In addition, they use threading techniques to precisely shape body hair and harness intense pulsed-light equipment to remove hair with lasers.

Top chefs hold fundraiser at hotel for Cumbria business man
Last updated at 10:59, Thursday, 29 November 2012
RAY ARMSTRONG has always been a private person.
He has never been one to seek the limelight for himself or his companies.
But the deeds of one of his colleagues has prompted him to come out in public about the cancer fight he faces.
In August Mr Armstrong, 52, was told he had terminal cancer. He has cancer of the pancreas and liver.
Ray has already faced adversity in his life. The family were involved in a tragic road accident in 2007 and have been
working hard to move on with their lives.
And now together they are facing another uphill battle with Mr Armstrong's cancer fight.
His wife Jane, and sons Hal, 22, Hayden, 19, and Cavan, 10, have received support and understanding from the community.
And Mr Armstrong, who is having chemotherapy at Furness General Hospital, is vowing to fight the condition which threatens to cut short his life.
He said: "I will fight it. I will still be here in two years' time. I can't go now – there's too much I want to do with my wife, Jane, and my children.
"My wife has been a rock for me."
Mr Armstrong, managing director of PKA, has received "fantastic support" from company manager John Goodwin.
PKA, based at Sowerby Woods Industrial Estate, Barrow, employs 12 people supplying high performance products to the energy and engineering sector.
It is the deeds of Dan Austin, managing director of one of Mr Armstrong's other companies – Lake District Farmers – which have prompted Mr Armstrong to go public about his condition.
Mr Austin, 25, who has been supported in his early career by Mr Armstrong, wanted to give something back to his boss when he found out he had cancer.
Lake District Farmers employed 14 people and was going bust in 2009 when Mr Armstrong invested heavily in it.
The Lindal-based company is now going from strength to strength, employs 16 people and sells only the best top quality Cumbrian meat to leading chefs in London and the North West.
So Mr Austin rang his contacts, including some of the country's best-known chefs.
He asked them if they would come to Furness to cook for a five-day food fundraising extravaganza in aid of Mr Armstrong's charities. Without hesitation they all said yes.
After visiting Clarence House at Dalton, they opted to stage the event at the four-star hotel.
It takes place at the beginning of February, with seats at £100 and all the money going to local charities.
Eight chefs confirmed so far are Alyn Williams, Angela Hartnett, Andre Garrett, Andy Cook, Luke Rayment, Paul Ainsworth, Nigel Haworth and Simon Rogan. Chef whites signed by Michel Roux and six cookbooks signed by Gordon Ramsay will be among items put up for auction at the event.
Mr Austin said: "Ray has done a lot for me. So I wanted to give something back and make him proud."
Mr Armstrong said: "I have been taken aback, I have been amazed. We will never get this happening again in Cumbria.
"The chefs have been amazing, giving up their time for nothing. The farmers have been superb in the way they are supporting the event.
"Victoria (Barber-Bolam) and Pauline (Barber) at Clarence House Hotel have been fantastic, giving up their hotel for free and giving us all the support they can.
"If it makes someone else's life better by raising money then that's got to be worth it."
St Mary's Hospice at Ulverston, charities helping children with terminal illness, the Salvation Army and Ostley House dementia unit are among a whole host of charities who stand to benefit from the event.
All the money raised will go to charity through the Lake District Farmers Armstrong Family Charitable Fund.
The One Week Only event takes place at Clarence House from February 1 until 5. To book tickets, priced at £100 for a five-course meal, call Sarah Earley on 01229 870168. For further information email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Anyone who is unable to attend but wants to donate to the charitable fund is invited to emaillakedistrictfarmers
@live.com or telephone Steve Winward on 01229 588299.
BARROW'S popular Strawberry pub closed its doors to the public on Saturday night.
At the private function attended by 200 people, £5,000 was raised for local charities through the Armstrong Family Charitable Fund.
