Germany coach Joachim Low has again ruled out a recall for Kevin Kuranyi despite the likelihood of losing Miroslav Klose to injury. Klose may have to pull out of the squad that shall meet Azerbaijan in a 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ qualifier on Wednesday due to the injury which forced him to miss Bayern Munich's 1-1 draw with Hoffenheim yesterday.
The 31-year-old will undergo tests with the German Football Association's medical department, but it seems likely he will have to follow Lukas Podolski in withdrawing from the squad, leaving Low with just two strikers in Mario Gomez and Cacau.
I have told him that there will simply be no return for him while I am in charge.
Kuranyi scored twice as Schalke defeated Nurnberg 2-1 yesterday, but Low still has no intention of going back on his decision never to pick the striker again.
"I have told him that there will simply be no return for him while I am in charge," Low said. "This decision still stands today."
Kuranyi was told his international career was over when, having not been named in the matchday squad, he walked out at half-time in Germany's friendly against Russia last October.
Kiessling possible
Low indicated that he would call up Stefan Kiessling of Bayer Leverkusen should Klose fail to prove his fitness.

im good at making maps but would like to learn how to make mods. i have a psp that i built out of scrach and i fix xbox 360s ps3 and ds. so like others i play alot of games.
No blog entries have been posted here. Boring yes, but as confucius says - if you have nothing good to say, why say anything at all? Check back later, perhaps something exciting will pop-up and be worth blogging about, like season 3 of the teletubbies.
Speak your mind, rant about games, mods and the development scene, it's simple and who knows maybe someone will read it and agree. It will feel right!

Traffic - we all want it and we all need it to gain exposure for business. But, how do you gain much needed traffic is the question. There are plenty of different marketing routes that showpig producers take. However, one tried and true method to ensure that you're getting traffic on one of the most important days in your business, sale day, is to host your sale with a reputable online platform that has established a following and massive online traffic.
At Showpig.com we closely monitor the traffic that our sale site creates, in the month of June we saw increases across the board on number of auctions we hosted, total items with bids and the average winning bid dollar amount in comparison to 2014.
The two charted stats that had the largest increase were total page views and total unique IP addresses. Total page views increased from 1,269,972 (2014) to 1,565,604 (2015) which was a 23% increase. Total unique IP addresses increased from 35,089 (2014) to 42,329 (2015) which was a 21% increase.
What's that mean exactly? Unique IP addresses, there were 7,240 more devices who visited showpig.com and they viewed 295,632 more pages than they did last year.
Although online web traffic can seem like a boring subject, it's essentially critical to your sale's success and exposure to your business. We suggest that you inquire with your sale provider and take into consideration the website traffic when choosing who to host your sale events with.

I have serious feelings for these Vintage Sheet Quilts from Pins and Thimbles. They are so, so, so gorgeous. I am currently ("current" meaning April 27, when I'm writing this post) trying really hard to finished that dagnabbed purple and green quilt so I can start another and machine-quilt it. I know, I've said wonderful things about hand-quilting. And I do genuinely like hand-quilting. But MAN. It takes so much time. I started this quilt last June and have finished hand-quilting three of fifteen squares.
Cathedral Window quilt blocks were the things that convinced me that I wanted to eventually get into quilting. They are just so beautiful and intricate. This Cathedral Window Tutorial from The Sometimes Crafter is great.
LOVE this Value Quilt tutorial from Willy Nilly.
These color-coded quilts from In Color Order are great. Naturally, I want to make one of them in each color and then fold them all neatly and make the most impressive blog post ever.
I really like the idea behind this simple quilt from Katie Did, and might utilize it for the next time someone I know has a baby shower.
Or perhaps this simple fat quarter quilt from Craft could work for a baby shower. Obviously, I'm in a quilty mood.
These leggings were made out of a t-shirt! Waaaaaaant! In lots of colors! From Andrea's Garden.
I want so badly to make dozens of these skirts for myself, but we know my issues with shirring. From Instructables.
SERIOUSLY. THIS IS TOO BEAUTIFUL. From In Color Order.
AH! I'm not a huge fan of random pillows, but this pom-pom pillow is excellent. Want. Found via Craft.

Horchata is a refreshing Mexican beverage made from rice. It is often sold in large jugs on the streets of Mexico. This authentic horchata recipe from Muy Bueno is simple and straightforward. Rice is soaked in water with cinnamon sticks and cloves for eight hours before its pureed and strained. The liquid is then combined with simple syrup to sweeten the beverage. Since horchata is dairy-free, it have a longer shelf life. Spiced horchata is especially delicious on a warm day with a plate of tacos. For full recipe instructions, click here.

Ladies, if you have a realtively sane BioM in the picture and you decide to come up with a cute nickname, can you please share it with her?
My dd is a very reluctant talker and somewhat delayed (amoung other things) and I have no idea how her dad and SM are referring to Sm. I would love to be included so I can better help my dd make the asociations as well as understand when she may be trying to talk to me about her dad's house. As of now, I am assuming they are calling SM by her first name so that's how I refer to her in my conversations with dd. If it's something different I would only be confusing the poor child and appearing to undermine SM and dad. I want to do neither. I also do not want to be the one to initiate the conversation about titles since I blew a mini-gasket when they told me they were trying to teach dd to say Mommy way back when.

Have you ever spent a dive staring at your computer instead of looking at everything in the water all because your computer is hard to read? The XR-2's enlarged digits, easy-to-read icons, and split screen take the guesswork out of reading your dive computer Also, the XR-2 allows you to decide what information displays; now you can customize the display to include only the things you want to keep an eye on during your dives The XR-2 is an air, nitrox or gauge mode computer, has backlighting, and incorporates audible alarms with flashing LED warning light

I bought this dive computer for my trip to the Dominican Republic. I did a few dives with the computer and everything worked perfectly. The instructions were straight forward and understandable. I was able to become familiar with most of the functions prior to my dives. During the dive, the computer tracked all necessary dive stats and the display was easy to read at 70ft. Pressing the button allowed for cycling through a series of screens, all of which were useful, easy to read and interpret.
The hose length is just right. However, I would recommend a clip/strap to hold the console in place on the BCD while diving.
Out of the water, the console is compact, light weight and easy to handle. This console was a great buy and I consider it a great value.

BEWARE: The computer is good; however, a standard sized compass, pre-2007 model, does NOT fit in the pocket on the back of the console! If you want a compass, you must purchase Aeris' NEW model compass.[...] For this reason, I would save the compass money and apply that toward a different computer. [...] do your homework before purchasing.Safe diving.

Not as easy to use than Cressi Archimede, but a very good value for money, and does nitrox too. I recommend it.
Best Uses
Comments about Aeris XR-2 Nitrox Wrist Computer:
First, I believe that dive computers provide so much useful information that I consider them to be essential safety gear. Basic models today are so inexpensive that there isn't really a cost barrier to ownership like there was a decade ago. Even (especially) if you travel and still rent gear, own a computer that you know thoroughly and trust. That said, the XR-2 would be high on my recommended list as a first computer for a new diver or a backup computer for a recreational diver.
I purchased this as a backup wrist computer after I had a console computer battery fail without warning during a dive in cold water. During dives now, I actually find myself referring to the XR-2 more often than the console computer because it's just right there on the wrist.
This model has been around long enough to work out any bugs that some of the new models seem to have. The design is proven and does the job well but it is almost the size of a hockey puck, not as compact as some of the newer models. I use both styles and alternate depending on the dive. I like the bigger size, it makes the face easier to read. The size isn't intrusive at all while diving but you're not going to wear it around town like a wristwatch either.
This is a solid workhorse computer that is simple enough for new divers but has the capability to handle more advanced needs including nitrox and night dives with the built in backlight and the USB download capability.
I also use and like the Suunto computers. Everything has it's advantages and disadvantages so take into consideration the kind of diving you'll do. My Suunto's have more advanced features like deep stops and gas switching during a dive but the Aeris models are more intuitive and a little more liberal with no-deco times.
Best Uses
Comments about Aeris XR-2 Nitrox Wrist Computer:
I wanted something a little better than basic entry but also didn't want to spend a whole lot. This computer has audible alarms, ability to download to the PC (need a separate cable about $70), easy to read display with large numbers. Theres only 2 buttons to press, so you don't have to pull out the operating manual every time you want to get reacquainted. There's really just 3 screens to toggle thru in dive mode which gives me all the info I care about. Oh yeah, it has wet activation too in case you forget to turn it on before you jump it. It's very similar to my husbands Hollis DG02 but the Aeris has a split screen that makes viewing your nitrogen and ascent rate very easily and quickly. I absolutely love it. I'm a fairly new diver but I think it has just enough bells and whistles should I decide to go into more advanced diving, such as Nitrox. Leisure Pro's price was easily $100 cheaper than similar online stores. If you decide to get it, check out divecomputertraining.com for a great video classroom on how to use & care for it (about $6 and well worth it).
Best Uses
Comments about Aeris XR-2 Nitrox Wrist Computer:
I've used one for a couple of years and loved it. VERY easy to use. Bought one fo the wife to use on a recent trip. She can't even change a car tire herself but found this easy to read and use. Battery changing is straightforward, but it's hard to tell that the O-ring is properly seated on the battery compartment.

Study in Barcelona: Universities and higher education in Barcelona
Explorer Publishing lists the top five universities and some business schools for those interested in studying in Barcelona.
For those wanting to study in Barcelona, there are several universities and colleges to choose from. Although, studying in Barcelona has some quirks and you will need to speak Spanish or Catalan to study some of the courses in Barcelona.
Studying in Barcelona
Although home to some of the oldest institutions in Europe, Spain's universities are where the Franco legacy is said to have lingered longest. Complaints include a semi-official system of patronage between established and young academics, dismal pay for junior teachers and researchers, poor publication records and limited investment in scientific research. This is a generalised, national picture, though, and there are individual centres of excellence.
In the most recent survey of the world's top 200 universities, the single Spanish university on the list scraped in at 190. Bad news for Spain, but good news for Catalonia, as this one high-flyer is its very own Universitat de Barcelona.
Expats deciding whether to study in Barcelona or go home will have to take language into consideration, as most (though not all) courses in Barcelona's universities are taught in Catalan.
Unlike US and British universities, students here tend to live with their parents, creating an atmosphere that some may find narrow and lacking the extra-curricular intensity of campuses in Anglo states. Some institutions, such as Universitat Pompeu Fabra are considered too nationalistic and Catalo-centric for some tastes.
For admission to university (from either state or private schools), students must sit two sets of exams. Firstly, the Batxillerat and secondly, an exam set by the university itself, known as Selectivitat.
Admission of students whose educational qualifications were acquired outside Spain is notoriously bureaucratic.
To study a first or second degree here, high school diplomas and/or first degree certificates must be formally approved by the Delegación del Gobierno, which is located in Carrer Bergara 12 (93 520 96 03), near the Estació de França in El Born.
For helpful details (in English) on this process, phone the Barcelona Centre Universitari, the information service for the city's universities, on 93 23 89 049.
EU nationals do not need a visa to be residents or study in Spain. Non-EU citizens will need to apply for a Visado de Estudios for a Spanish embassy or consulate in their home country.
Student life in Barcelona
Barcelona's student population is huge, with around 200,000 of the scruffy tikes spread across its several universities. The cultural, cosmopolitan and arty draw of the city attracts students from all over the world and for a variety of reasons.
Whether you're on an Erasmus exchange, a TEFL programme, studying for a Masters or embarking on a full undergraduate course, there will be plenty of opportunity to get involved in this enriching city.
Students doing an undergraduate degree at larger universities can expect to be housed in halls of residence based on campus. The Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, for example, houses students in the University Village (Vila Universitària), which is designed to feel like a self-contained city with parks, leisure centres and so on. It is worth contacting your university's accommodation office well before you arrive.
The universities also have an affiliation with Barcelona Housing Services, which specialises in accommodation for students. Options vary from shared flats and rented apartments, to university halls.
Your social life will, at first, be determined by where you live, who you meet and what societies you decide to join.
The Universitat de Barcelona, for example, has a good range. It has one of the largest sporting venues in the city and caters for those that want to join a sports team, drama club, music society or get involved in one-off events. Beyond campus life, a lively student social scene can be found in Gràcia. It is one of Barcelona's hippest areas, with narrow streets, busy bars, bustling street cafes and lots of life.
Student accommodation in Barcelona
There are a few useful websites for students hoping to find a home. The CIAJ is an Ajuntament-run organisation that helps arrange student accommodation. The site www.bcn-housing-students.com is useful andwww.brighter place.com is focussed on Erasmus exchange students.
Further education in Barcelona
The Barcelona Business School (www.bbs-edu.org, 93 452 22 30) offers corporate training and executive education to business people, in English.
For those with good Spanish, Barcelona´s ESADE business school offers open programmes for continuing career development (www.esade.edu, 93 280 40 08), as well as partnership programmes in which business people can customise their own course, either as individuals or through their companies.
Universities in Barcelona
Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona
93 581 11 11
Various locations

text: 15 Items View 12 / 24 / 48 Great BUT By Shawn on 6/12/2015 Shawn would recommend this product to a friend There is a negative review here and I want to inform all of how to avoid a bad experience. The units have small air vents to exchange cool for hot air. These allow dust to enter and clog the heat exchanger up. You need to get a can air and blow these out periodically. I have had 2 of these units since they first came out 2-3 years now with no issues except when they get to hot from the dust issue they shut off until the cool down them come back on. I just bought a 3rd unit and am very pleased. I did have an issue with the Goose neck not coming with the bracket to attach the light. My beef with BRS is they knew the boxes where getting shipped with the missing item and I had to figure that out. Also I paid $235 for unit and now they are selling for $160 in just a few weeks time. That is a drastic price drop in a short period of time. Makes me feel like I got ripped off. Just What I needed By Dion on 12/14/2014 Dion would recommend this product to a friend I got the Ocean blue for my BC29 during the BRS Black Friday sale. I had just restarted my nano and I did not what to put the old hood and PC lights back on. When looking for a good LED replacement, I compared Kessil, AI and Ecotech. I chose to buy the Keesil almost immediately because of the sale. Although not dimmable, like the 160, the 150 looks great in my tank. It's actually not as blue as some have said, so if you like it blue go deep ocean blue. I have no corals yet but my cinnamon clown who was in a 6 bulb Ati t5 is hiding from this new Kessil. The shimmer is insane. If you don't need to dim your light and you can get this for a good price, go for it. Awesome By Jason on 12/8/2014 Jason would recommend this product to a friend I received my Amazon sun model a little over a week ago and let me say this light is great. I put it on my refugium and my cheato and caulerpa are growing like crazy. I believe that they have nearly doubled in size in a matter of a week dropping my nitrate and phosphate considerably. Its an expensive option for a fuge light but its working out great so far and i'm really happy about it. great light By mike on 10/24/2014 mike would recommend this product to a friend Have had the ocean blue a150w on a biochemical 29 for a while and the colors and shimmer are amazing. The best part about the light is the growth of my corals. softies, LPS and sps all doing great and colors pop Overprice and lasts just past warranty By Drew on 6/7/2014 Drew wouldn't recommend this product to a friend This product has stunning reviews but they will find out it is a consumer item that will last just past warranty, followed by lip service customer service. They really just wanted sell me another one. Return has been sitting in California for two week with bla blah blah coming back from them and no lamp. I canceled replacement and putting 10 year old sunpod in garage back in use. BRS usually has excellent products to pick from. This is not one of them. Kessil needs to find another customer!!!! Update amazon sun By Robert on 3/9/2014 Robert would recommend this product to a friend After 3 months switched from planted tank to 30 gallon reef tank, looks amazing, still super quiet, i wont buy any lights but kessil from now on Awesome By Will on 3/4/2014 Will would recommend this product to a friend Bought a pair of the ocean blues for my 55G and they're awesome. I'm switching from a T5 fixture and metal halid/cheap experiment and its worlds better. The shimmer is perfect. Highly recommend!! Amazing Light By Kristopher on 3/3/2014 Kristopher would recommend this product to a friend I changed my biocube from the standard lights to a rimless version with the Kessil Sky Blue with a gooseneck. The light is amazing, easy to install, and looks sleek and runs super quiet. My wife even commented that the light made the tank look "less like a salty crusty thing" and more like "a sophisticated piece that looks like it belongs in here". I highly recommend, my corals showed greater polyp extension even after only an hour under the lights. Good Bang For Your Buck By Justin on 2/6/2014 Justin would recommend this product to a friend I have JUST ONE of these over a 29 gallon reef with soft and lps corals that THRIVE! Very nice coloring and the corals love it. I've had it for over a year no problems with any of my corals. Highly recommended! Very Bright and small,Okay Spectrum By Chezare on 1/30/2014 Chezare would recommend this product to a friend Got the LEDS about a month ago. They are very bright and coral seemed to enjoy them. I found pendants were the way to go because of the odd shape of my 92 Gallon Corner tank. But if your looking at the sky blues don't get them, get the ocean blues. The sky blues are simply too blue. If i could i would return the sky blues in exchange for the ocean blues. Another thing the lights are a little loud. The fans can be heard when there is no other noise in the living room. Overall the lights are very bright but are to white and loud. Great Light By Ezra on 1/27/2014 Ezra would recommend this product to a friend I have a mix of this kessil and metal halide on my 65 gallon the growth rate on the side with the LED is great. I also have to say the shimmer is outstanding. These light run quiet and i have had no issues with the light. Wow...just wow! By Robert on 12/18/2013 Robert would recommend this product to a friend Been using the amazon sun on my freshwater tank and the plant growth is amazing(dwarf baby tears actualy spreading into a carpet). Day one you will be sold, seeing the shadow of a 1/2 inch long glass shrimps hair thin antenae is crazy. I found my best distance off the water in a 48x18x21 is about 5 inches. You should get one for every 12 inches of tank, seems like small coverage but trust me these are way worth the price (and i am certainly a little under middle class job) the apex controller (in about 15 seconds) recognised them as lights and imediately put them on a timer, awesome... Penetrates glass with a heavy white film without even reducing half the light. Get one or two extra black zip ties for the wires and you'll be set and verry happy! Cant wait to use the other kinds on a reef tank. awesome light By chuckthetang on 12/8/2013 chuckthetang would recommend this product to a friend been using them now for over a year. I have two over a 54 corner coral growth has been good with sps lps and softies. Lets not forget to mention that my electric was much lower after switching to these from metal halides !!! Awsome light By Bill on 11/15/2013 Bill would recommend this product to a friend Got this for my nano project. Just for fun turned off my TEK 4 bulb fixture running 3 ATI blue plus and a coral plus bulb. Jaw dropping color popping from my corals. Haven't used it long term to see how coral growth is but from everything I've been reading I'm excited to get some corals in the nano. I went with the Deep Ocean Blue, might be a little too much blue for some but I LOVE the color. Spread and shimmer, runs cool, just overall really pleased. I'm really considering replacing my my T5s with the A360 to run on my Apex. Don't think twice! By Old Salt on 9/25/2013 Old Salt would recommend this product to a friend I've had the Ocean Blue running over my 27 cube reef for about a month now. Can't say enough good things about it. Installation with the gooseneck is a breeze and gives the tank a nice clean look. Coral growth has been good and I love the shimmer. It's not adjustable, so you can't do the dawn to dusk thing, but it runs quiet and cool. Assuming it's durable, I think that, at this price, Kessil could quickly dominate the nano- mid-size tank market. I'm already thinking about Kessils for my 58. Get one.

Funnyman Stephen Colbert visited NBC's MEET THE PRESS with Host David Gregory yesterday. The Comedy Central star explained "satire is parody with a point, and if I was doing satire and didn't have a point of view, then that would be truly, like, schizophrenic. That would be, like, trying to establish patterns that aren't really there." He went on to say, "I always have a point of view. I care about the news. … I do not imagine that I'm a newsman. I really admire newsmen. I really enjoy good news. And I'm not a politician. But I like playing political games to see what really happens in them. Like, that's why I formed a Super PAC or that's why I ran for president or formed an exploratory committee." Check out the interview below!

Sings like a canary
Where does that phrase come from and what does it mean?
I've heard people say "as it were" quite often. It doesn't even sound wrong to me anymore. But shouldn't it really be "as it WAS" instead, for proper subject verb agreement?
Where does that phrase come from and what does it mean?
I am puzzled by the usage of 'obliged' and 'obligated'. What's the difference between the two words, which seem to share the same noun form "obligation"? I could think of two sentences as below: (1) John Doe is not obligated to do this. (2) Experts felt obliged to investigate. What if obligated and obliged are exchanged in the examples? any difference meaning? Thanks
I know the saying was popularized from the movie Alice in Wonderland. Did the expression "off with their heads" have it's origin in England or France?
What is the difference between 'skilled' and 'skilful'? Is it just a matter of collocation - the skilled craftsmen, the skilful footballer - or is there something more profound to it?
Help! I have an annual report ready to go to print....Can someone please tell me which footnote is grammatically correct? Percents do not add to 100 because members may indicate more than one business activity. OR Percentages do not add to 100 because members may indicate....
I'm helping to rewrite my organisation's style guide. I prefer (and we have always used) Collins but some other colleagues prefer the OED. Does anyone have any strong views on their respective merits? thanks, James
As nasty as it sounds, for a translation I just need to know what the word is for the shooting into head of an executed person after being shot by the fire squad. Is it a head shot? Or there is a military jargon for it?
When I lived in Canada (I'm Australian) I noticed a common phrase used by interviewers and reporters was "could you speak to that" used in the sense of "Prime minister I believe you have discussed changes to the immigration policy... could you speak to that?" I found it a little uncomfortable and wondered if it was a new journalistic lingo phrase or a perfectly correct Canadian expression. Could any Canadians speak to that? : )
I have always said "I feel nauseous". My daughter found out that we are supposed to say "nauseated" because nauseous means that we are making others nauseous! I have never heard anyone say they feel nauseated so has the rule changed through common usage?
What does "tooing and frowing" mean? And why these words cannot be found in any dictionary (at least in those I looked at?) Is it a corruption of "to and fro?" Is "frowing" a word and could it be used separately and if so would it mean differently than that of the phrase?
If Hillary Clinton is elected as the president of the US, what should Bill Clinton be called? I've seen both "first husband" and "first gentleman." Wikipedia seems to think that it should be the latter.
"Do's and Don't's" is a popular phrase, but the punctuation of it seem to vary for "don't's". What should it be? Dont's or Don't's
I suppose these questions are frequently preceded by an argument between one regarded as a pedant and another who is one secretly. I'm the pedant. Are these words pronounced so similarly as to be only identifiable by their context? For instance 'a dentist works orally' or 'I am to give an oral presentation.' This can lead to ambiguity (if they are pronounced the same): 'I can only learn a language aurally/orally.'
While waiting for the subway to arrive, I noticed this mysterious symbol between "PRINCE" and "ST." This is not a mistake of any kind. All of the signs at the station had this little triangle, and whoever created these signs put a significant amount of effort in inserting it. (Just look at how it is tiled.) Obviously this was something important for the artist who created this mosaic sign. What could it mean? It could not be a dash. Firstly, a dash would be inappropriate for this context. Secondly, if it were meant as a dash, it would have been much easier to draw a straight line out of these square tiles (instead of a triangle). (FYI: This is New York City.)
I constantly see apostrophes used in ways I believe are incorrect. I am wondering anyone can confirm for me, though. For example, I often see "Temperatures will reach the high 90′s today..." Aren't apostrophes only used to show possession or in contractions? For example, "This sweet ride isn't (cont.) mine; it's (cont) Jessica's (poss)." Also, how would I word something to the effect that everyone is coming to the house that my husband, Mike, and I own? "Everyone is coming to Mike's and my house."?
What is the consensus on using words like "therefore" and "thus" as conjunctions (i.e. to connect two sentences), such as: "I ate a burger, therefore/thus I am full." Or, can they not be used as conjunctions, and does a "real" conjunction or a semicolon need to be inserted? "I ate a burger, and therefore/thus I am full." "I ate a burger; therefore/thus I am full." Any thoughts?
Is this correct? As in "in response to some of the most problematic issues of nowadays business"? To me it sounds strange, although it seems to have a couple hundred entries in Google. I'd opt for "today's business".
I'm crossing my fingers in hopes that this question will be answered without any attacks on a person's personal beliefs. Can it happen? When carrying more than one book entitled, "Book of Mormon," do you say you have three "Books of Mormon?" This has been a bit of a joke among people of the LDS faith, as some people are very insistent that "books" must be used. The book is made up of many sections called "books" (similar to how the Bible is set up), and Mormon is said to be the editor who compiled and abrigded the book (hence the title). Based on that, I could see how someone could think of it as a collection of books edited by Mormon, and decide that "books" makes the most sense. Personally, I see "Book of Mormon" as a title that is handled like a complete unit, and so the plural would be Book of Mormons - which still sounds funny. So, is there any set way to pluralize a title with the word book in it? Like "Books of the Dead" compared to "Book of the Deads?"
Can anyone explain why the short forms or the nicknames for Robert and Richard are Bob and Dick?

Caron Butler likely headed to the Lone Star state
Feb 9, 2010, 9:42 AM EDT
The always-reliable David Aldridge comes through with the goods that Caron Butler's days in Washington are almost certainly numbered.
The reason is money: With some cap relief headed their way after the Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenton suspensions, the Wizards are about $5 million over the luxury tax threshold. If they can send out Butler for an expiring deal, they not only don't have to pay the tax but also they will get a $4.5 million check from the pool of money the tax paying teams had to throw in. That's nearly a $10 million swing. So goodbye Butler. Have a safe flight.
The question is where does he go? Aldridge says Texas.
Butler winding up somewhere in Texas is most likely, with Washington probably deciding between Dallas' and Houston's competing offers before next week's All-Star Game. The Wizards are determined to get a young player back, though, and the Mavericks' only non-geezer is rookie guard Rod Beaubois — while Houston has a young guard like Kyle Lowry and an expiring big man contract in forward Luis Scola to pair with McGrady's $22 million expiring deal.
(Don't discount Portland, either. While much has been made of the Blazers' pursuit of Washington center Brendan Haywood, the Blazers have just as much, if not more, interest in Butler, and are willing to put $3 million in cash toward a deal — which certainly interests the Wizards. But Portland's refusal to put any of its young players other than Martell Webster in any potential deal puts it on the outside looking in.)
Yesterday Mavericks owner Mark Cuban moved Beaubois into the "untouchable" category (along with only Dirk Nowitzki on that roster). If Washington wants a young player or two in this deal, Houston may be the only choice.
Butler's scoring punch added to the hard-nosed team defense played in Houston would rocket them to the top of the "teams we don't want to face in the first round" list in the West.

Hi there. I just needed to tell you that some components of your web site are onerous to scan for me, as I'm color blind. I am afflicted by deuteranopia, but there are more kinds of color blindness which will also have difficulties. I will read the majority of the site Okay, and those elements I have issues with I am able to comprehend by using a custom browser. In any case, it'd be nice if you can keep in mind we color-blind people whilst undertaking your next site re-working. Thank you.

Hello Brothers & Sisters of ConArtOrg!
I just joined, and have started setting up my little gallery. I have to say that I was very surprised to see that after less than 30 minutes, I some how received a 5 star rating of my small scale sculptural works.
I am not sure if that is good, or what, as I do not yet know the criteria of how we rate each others works.
Be that as it may, I will figure it out. What is clear to me, in so short a time among you; this is an active community!
I hope to be of value to other sculptors and painters, and if my articles are not useful, then may they at least be amusing to me fellow artist.

29 year old man | Seattle, WA, USA | Seeking women 21-30 within 50 miles
Lets have some fun!
HI! I don"t really don't know where to start here. Never done the online thing. I guess I just feel like I'm getting older and also sick of meeting people in bars. About me I commercial fish in Alaska and engineer a vessel. But aside from that I love traveling! Just recently went to Hawaii and loved it! defiantly making that a once a year thing. Im a very active person wether its snowboarding, boating, paddle boarding, skateboarding Im all for it. Love hiking and the Pacific Northwest. I do want kids someday. I could see myself being a good parent, and would like to start building a family in the near future.

I currently live in Capitol Hill and love living in the city but also love getting away for a weekend of camping, or a road trip to some where. The last road trip I ended up in the Red Woods and had a great time. I really don't like making plans or having a set agenda. Im not the kinda person who would stand somebody up or blow them off. I'm a firm believer that if you make a deal with somebody you need to stick with it. That policy has helped me in business, and relationships with people. The girl Im looking for should just be a sweet nice lady. Who respects herself is genuine knows how to have fun, and likes being active and trying new things. If you read this and are interested please don't be shy. Im a very easy going person.

Hi everyone,
I have a Craftsman 6" jointer that I bought off of CL. I put new knives on it, and generally it works pretty well. One issue I have with it, though, is that it spits out wood shavings from the top like a fountain. In fact, it never seems to run out. I really cannot get the infeed table clear of chips long enough to put another piece of wood on a clean area.
The jointer has a 4" dust port. I've reduced this down to the size of my shop-vac hose, and I have a dust deputy between the two. The reducer is sealed up tight with duct tape because I thought that was the problem area.
Do you think my shop-vac is just incapable of providing enough suction? Or is there something about jointers I'm missing? Do they all have this problem?
I'd appreciate any insight the group has.

I think the Shop-Vac (intended for low volumes of dust / shop cleanup) is definitely underpowered for the task, and more specifically, that small hose simply can't handle the volume of chips a jointer and a planer makes. Early on when all I had was a Shop-Vac, I hooked it to my planer (despite the instruction's warnings) and it quickly backed up like leaves stuck in a rain gutter. A 4" dust collector - intended for high volumes of dust - makes a HUGE difference when hooked up with a jointer and/or planer.
Posted 09 October 2012 - 04:25 AM
DC does make a difference. I have a Craftsman 6" jointer but mine didn't have a dust port. It was open on the bottom so I and went underneath and made a box, drilled a few holes to mount it and put a DC port on the bottom of the box. My DC is a Grizzly 1 or 1.5 HP and it has a 4" PVC hose that drops down from the trunk line and converts into a flex hose the last 24"....I get very little dust on the top of the jointer and no chips.
Posted 09 October 2012 - 05:18 AM
Do you think my shop-vac is just incapable of providing enough suction?
You already had the answer. If all you have is a shop vac you're better off to let the chips dump on the floor while jointing then vacuum them up when you're done.
Posted 09 October 2012 - 01:26 PM
I have a jet joiner and a older craftsman 6 inch and I prefer the craftsman I made a drawer and all
of my chips drop in no problem without any suction just gravity. Any chance your knives are spinning the wrong way?

Posted 09 October 2012 - 02:07 PM
Joiners are bad about spitting back at you when chips get packed in the top of the shoot, near the head. With the joiner unplugged, run a stick up in there and see if you can feel wads of chips packed into the nooks and crannies. That's usually what causes that. Lack of proper DC system can cause it but even if you let the chips pile up below until they start backing up on the shoot, it will cause the same thing.
Posted 09 October 2012 - 06:58 PM
OK, I took off the dust chute, and, sure enough, it was clogged with chips right at the cutting head. I left the dust chute off and let the chips fall to the floor. That works much better.
I also double checked that it was spinning the correct direction. Towards the right, right?
Thanks everyone for the guidance.

clockwise into the work is correct. I didnt think the knives were spinning in the wrong direction. You just never
know if the previous owner had replaced the motor and wired it backwards.

The closed-door negotiations between the paper mills blamed for the PCB mess on the Fox River in northeastern Wisconsin evidently aren't moving forward fast enough for the Environmental Protection Agency.
The paper companies have been trying to figure out their respective shares for what is expected to be a $400 million cleanup, but on Wednesday the EPA ordered them to get to work next month, even if their negotiations are stalled.
The state of Wisconsin, the paper companies and many local political leaders in the Green Bay area have for more than a decade been arguing that a cooperative approach to the cleanup is the most efficient way to tackle the problem. But the threat always remained that the super-industrialized river could be added to the Superfund list if things couldn't be worked out in a friendly manner.
Wednesday's announcement doesn't mean a Superfund listing, but it might be a step in that direction. The order requires the companies next month to start buying the required equipment and making plans for a suitable landfill, among other things.
It requires the actual dredging work on the stretch of river between Appleton and the mouth of Green Bay to begin in summer 2009.
Paper industry representatives weren't happy with what the EPA termed a "unilateral administrative order."
"The order can potentially move the Fox River cleanup from what has been a very cooperative and collaborative approach to a legal proceeding," said Georgia-Pacific spokeswoman Mary Jo Malach.
"We thought we'd been making really good progress in addressing the agencies' issues, but apparently they didn't share that viewpoint."
Malach added that the order "really opens the door to litigation by companies that don't agree with the path forward."
Wisconsin support
The EPA push is supported by Wisconsin officials who have not given up hope that a friendly settlement will still be reached. But they are worried if early work on the project doesn't start soon, the state's hoped-for 2009 schedule to start the cleanup could be pushed back indefinitely.
"The way to get this project done right and get it done quickly is to do it in a cooperative fashion," said Bruce Baker, deputy administrator for the water division of the state Department of Natural Resources. "But when it becomes clear that that's not going to happen, then we have to look at other options, and that's what happened here."
It's been four years since the plan to dredge millions of cubic yards of contaminated sediment from the river bottom was first approved, and the government's patience is clearly wearing thin.
"The lead time for getting a landfill worked out and constructed and the lead time for acquiring some of the equipment for dewatering and dredging, all that stuff takes at least a year. And putting that off to sometime into the unknown future based on discussions that have not worked out . . . this is just too big of a delay," Baker said.
Placing the waste
Even if the paper companies do reach an agreement on how to proceed, finding a place to put most of the waste remains a sticking point. Contaminants from a small-scale dredging project on the river this summer were trucked to the Detroit area, but the state is hoping the paper companies can reach a deal with local government leaders to put the bulk of the contaminants on a county-owned parcel.
The original cleanup plan called for the removal of nearly 8 million cubic yards of sediment, but the DNR approved a revised plan this year that calls for dredging only about half that amount. The rest of the contaminated sediment will be capped, an easier and cheaper method of trying to clean up the river.
The pollution came from seven paper mills that either manufactured or recycled carbonless copy paper containing PCBs between 1954 and 1971.

Originally written on Fight Hub TV | Last updated 2/11/13
Jeff Monson made an interesting and, in typical Monson style, incendiary comment a few years back basically saying that all athletes should be on steroids, that way there's an equal playing field. Although that is something to consider for at least half a second, Monson doesn't seem to factor in the damage steroids and certain PEDs do to someone's body of years of use. Damaging your heart, shortening your career, and the obvious shunning from the sport in which you make your living are all factors that play into the game of gaining an edge. You can't make money if you pee hot and can't fight. Now TRT is on the rise and on the tip of everyone's tongue. UFC lightweight champ Ben Henderson is the latest to speak out about steroids and their users, which have plagued sports for years. "My thing with the whole steroid thing and whatnot – I understand part of a competitor's nature is to take whatever edge, whatever advantage you can get to be the best,""To that I just say if I'm facing a ...

WOW! I'm really an emotional roller-coaster. In one way, I think it's a good point for me because I hold nothing inside and let it all out, like you saw in yesterday's blog. I bet that's why I'm never tensed in the neck and back! Ok, all jokes aside, I really need to write a follow-up to that desperate SOS call I wrote yesterday.
I knew I would get a few good answer, maybe some emoticons saying I was able to di it, just keep pushing, etc.
But I was really touched this morning when I started reading your answers. They were GREAT! Honnest like I like it (my BF got me used to brutal honesty) and kind as well. I knew I wasn�t the only one to experienced these feelings and I wanted to find ways to stop them.
First, I want to say that I don�t weigh myself everyday but maybe 2-3 times a week. Also, you were probably right about the water retention in my muscle because this morning I was lower. Still a gain since last week but not as dramatic.
Now, since my computer is broken, I must use my work station and I only have a few minutes during my lunch break that�s why I don�t write you all back like I want to do.
I�m feeling way better today. I realised I was not being totally honnest with myself and looking back, I know exatly why I�m not losing. Latelly, I�ve been buying more junk but I was eating it when no one could see me, as if it would make a difference if I was alone or not. I also stop listening to my conscience and went on a guilt trip.
JENNGETTINGBUFF linked for me an article and WOW! It's exactly what I needed, spot on the behaviour I had.
Here's the link, it's really fantastic :
I will now listen to my little voice. otherwise, I'm just hurting myself and I should not do that.
LMB100 also gave me a great link to her blog:
And many others gave me the same advice: who cares about motivation? Fake it till you make it should be my quote from now on.
Also, I won't go into a very restrictive carb diet, but I'll keep reducing them, trying to stay at the lowest of my SP range.
My BF also pointed out to me that at the beginning of my journey, I was planning more. Amking list of the weeks meal and grocery lists as well. I knew in advance what I would eat instead of tracking after and maybe ''forget'' a cracker or a chocolate bar in the tracker.
So I'll start that again, give it a try. It worked in the past, why would it be different now?
I can not promise you I won't have another meltdown and come crying about my life ever again.
But I feel so better now knowing if I'm feeling down, I can simply reach out here on SP and find some super supportive people.
I lost control, but now I don't want control, I simply want to be in charge. There's a big difference because I can't lose it and I'm responsible for my choices.
I would love to go on and on to thanks each of you, but I don't have time (I must also learn a new choir piece for this week-end and since my favorite tool to do so is my computer, I'm also praticing this Bach piece during my lunch break!).
Thanks from the bottom of my heart, I'll let you know how I'm doing later this week.

Thanks for letting us all know you are feeling better - and thanks for sharing the resources that helped to get you there! I read the article/blog you linked to and they are both great resources, thank you so much for sharing them. I do better when I plan ahead too - but it is really really hard for me to do. I once heard somewhere "if you fail to plan you plan to fail" and that mantra has helped me from time to time. Hope you have fun this weekend and glad you are feeling better about things!

Kicking back by the lake steaks on the grill. With a line in the water
Lets chat about this later, then we can decide where and when we want to go.
check out the city maybe see a movie go out anything but the CN tower (I have a small fear of heights I'm working up the nerve to go up)
A nice day trip to make new memories with a new friend.
Love to travel and see new things.
My first date idea would b n a park maybe a picnic just to get to know one another
I'm new to the area so not sure what's available but a walk in the park, sightseeing, sporting event, or something with some culture sounds fun.
Meet in park so we can talk and get to know each other.maybe take walk enjoying the weather.
Go to the zoo, it's simple, fun, relaxing, and allows you to talk without being uptight. You can get to know each other.
I am not quite sure because I have never been on a date
Quick flight to the Keys or Carribean, or 3 day cruise to the Bahamas
Drinks, walk in the park, something fun.
A nice meeing where you can talk and relate. Everyone thinks of dinner or coffee but I like a walk in the park or maybe a outdoor event that adds to conversation lines.
maybe meet for coffee late morning meander through a mall chatting, if we click maybe zoo, museum, conservatory of coarse dinner/supper maybe even that drive in movie
