I'm not super great at filling out these "self descriptions." But hell, I'll give it a try. My life is full of random adventures. I know how to balance working hard and playing hard, and I am pretty proud of that. Overall, I like where I'm at and I love life. By day, I do graphic design for Disney; By night you can find me at a local bar unwinding after a busy day. Gotta reward yourself, right? Anyway, what do I like to do for fun? Well i'm into cooking, photography, drawing, watching anime, cosplaying and video games. When I'm with friends, we usually go out and have drinks at a club or go to a show. But I also don't mind staying home and just kickin' back. Good company is what matters to me and I am down for whatever's right at the moment. So you're probably wondering what I am looking for? I'm looking for someone who is kind hearted and values friendship; Someone to go out and have fun or stay home and watch tv; Someone who will enjoy cooking with me. I'm still new at cooking, so my food is sometimes a surprise...haha. Also...random impromptu adventures! You should send me a message about... anything! What is your favorite game? What's your favorite cuisine you wanna learn to cook? Name it and lets chat about it.

Men's VIP List
Both Women's & Men's VIP List
Okay, we are a little obsessed with Red Wing Shoes. After looking at the imagery above and after the jump, who can blame us?
Anything and everything Spurr does is with great attention to detail. This hoodie is no different. The black nylon liner adds an element which allows a causal piece to have the versatility to be dressy. Want to wear it with a shirt and tie? Go for it. We would go with navy or black neckwear. Want to unzip the lining and wear it as a vest? Sure, you can do that too (check it out after the jump.) Jeans and/or chinos with this look? Check. Comfortable and dressy; what a concept!
We always emphasize versatility at SINGER22. This is why Grungy Gentleman x J Shoes is our selection for 'Catch This NOW.' The boot can be worn several different ways. For work, you can wear the shoe standing up straight, with your pants over them. This will act as a brogue. If you want to wear it combat-style, there are 2 options. You can simply fold over the tongue and body for that effortless, rugged look. If one desires to clean that version up, wrap the laces around the body when you tie them. Then fold over the body and tongue. The end result will be a very clean fold, where the contrast between the leathers really pop. Which way is your steeze?
It is about that time of the year to swap you summer wristwear with new fall additions. The hottest bracelet collaboration in the game, Burkman Bros x SINGER22 are back for fall 2011 and have your wrists covered. Scoop some here. We hope y'all dig it.
Del Toro is so on point! Here at SINGER22, we wear DT's practically every single day. Comfort, elegance, versatility are all achieved effortlessly. We advise that everybody should have a pair. This is what we call an intelligent purchase.
When men dress, they seek that little extra hop in their step. Confidence is king in regards to style. This Bestaff jacket is so masculine and will have you prepared for the winter. The freedom to layer underneath this bad boy, its sleek pockets, and 'go-to-hell' collar will have you looking like a G this winter. Pair them with these Michael Bastian for Randolph Engineering teardrop aviators and Tom Cruise would have a serious run for his money if they ever do a re-make of Top Gun.
Rogue makes masculine threads with serious attitude. Being able to achieve look sharp while being edgy is hard to accomplish. That is, unless you are rocking Rogue!
AG Jeans fall 2011 campaign is all about the New York City couple. Just strolling around on the weekend together and enjoying one another's company. Enjoy!
Project NYC Trade Show 2011 was action backed. Who headlined it? Obviously, Rogue and Spurr. Check out what they got coming to a store near you real soon.

4200 Ti issues
It started when I tried installing a ATI HDTV-Wonder card. I started getting a lot of screen artifacts, in 2d and also in 3d.
It progressed to the point that once it booted to XP, as soon as I opened anything, a window, a menu, it would hard freeze. I ended up removing the HDTV card as I never could get it to work correctly, but my issues with the 4200Ti didn't end.
I ended up doing a full format/clean install of XP, new drivers, re-seating the card (agp) and no help. When I went to the DirectX diagnostic screen and tried to run the 3d display, I kept getting massive artifacts, right away, and if I let it go for more than a few seconds it hard froze.
BTW, using the card a 1440x9?0 res, lcd flatpanel hooked up via analoug cable.
I haven't been able to get the card to work any better since, am I looking at hardware failure? I don't have another comp available to double check it isn't the mobo.
Yes it is an old card, and this is like the 4th comp it has been used in. The replacements I have been considering don't benchmark really any better than this card though.. (radeon 9600 pro, fx 5200) Not a gamer, but my onboard video won't support my lcd's native resolution.

YIELD: Makes 4 servings
1. Cut a slice from broccoli raab base and taste to determine toughness. If fairly tender, trim only 1/2 inch or so from stalks; if tough, trim more. Wash vegetable in several changes of water, lifting out so debris settles. Without drying, spread in microwavable serving dish. Cover with plastic wrap and cook for 2 minutes. Toss, then continue cooking until not quite done, 1 to 2 minutes more. Pierce plastic and allow to cool.
2. Peel carrots. Place in microwavable dish. Cover with plastic wrap. Cook just until carrots lose their raw crunch but are not cooked through 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Pierce plastic and cool slightly.
3. In a small dish, mix sherry, vinegar, honey, salt and hot pepper to taste, stirring to blend. Add peanut and sesame oils.
4. Line up broccoli raab stems on cutting board. Cut apart from tops (the florets and leaves). Squeeze tops dry, then blot with towel. Cut into very thin shreds; return to dish. Slice stems on a sharp angle to form long oblongs 1/8 inch thick; add to dish. Cut carrots the same way and add to dish. Toss with dressing. Season. Chill.

Albany, New York (PRWEB) August 26, 2014
Antimicrobial Plastics Market was valued at USD 662.3 million in 2013 and is anticipated to reach USD 1,227.4 million by 2020, expanding at a CAGR of 9.3% during the forecast period from 2014 to 2020. In terms of volume, the antimicrobial plastics market in the U.S. stood at 100,062.1 tons in 2013.
Antimicrobial plastics help reduce deterioration and increase the lifespan of medical products. Thus, growth in the medical devices market in the U.S. is likely to be one of the primary factors driving demand for antimicrobial plastics in the country over the next few years. High rate of hospital-acquired infections is projected to boost market growth. Rising demand for antimicrobial plastics in packaging and subsequent growth of the packaging market in the U.S. is estimated to fuel market growth. Volatility in prices of raw materials is expected to hamper antimicrobial plastic market growth, as it adversely affects profit margins of manufacturers and increases the overall costs of the already-expensive plastics. Product innovation, an area of focus of several manufacturers, is anticipated to open up new opportunities for market growth.
Title: U.S. Antimicrobial Plastics Market

Pages: 76
Price: US$ 4,795.00 (Single User)
For further inquiries, click here: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/sample/sample.php?flag=S&rep_id=2564
Healthcare was the largest application segment, accounting for approximately 44% of the market share in 2013. Additionally, it is estimated to be the fastest growing segment during the forecast period, led by rising demand for antimicrobial solutions in the medical devices market. Furthermore, higher number of patients with hospital-acquired infections is projected to augment demand for antimicrobial plastics. Packaging and personal care segments are likely to witness above-average growth during the forecast period. Automotive and building & construction are niche market segments of the antimicrobial plastics market owing to the high cost of the plastics.
Browse the full report U.S. Antimicrobial Plastics Market: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/us-antimicrobial-plastics-market.html
The antimicrobial plastics market is fragmented in nature due to the presence of a number of manufacturers. Additionally, there is a low threat of backward or forward integration of antimicrobial plastic manufacturing companies in the market owing to the complex manufacturing and capital intensive nature of the market. Certain companies such as BASF and Bayer are integrated across two or more stages of the antimicrobial plastics market. Key players in the market include The Dow Chemical Company, Lonza, BASF, AkzoNobel, Bayer, DuPont and Sherwin-Williams. Product innovation and development of cheaper antimicrobial solutions are the points of focus of the manufacturers. Market share of these companies is estimated to decrease in the next few years due to increasing demand for antimicrobial plastics. The report segments the U.S. antimicrobial plastics market as follows:

Our friend Kat from Bjooti.net got an exclusive peek at some of the upcoming spring/summer looks from MAC! Here are a few images she took that show off some of the new products we'll be seeing in the next few months. Those glosses above are, in fact, from the Sugarsweet Collection, as confirmed by a MA friend of mine. Apparently, the colors do not mix because of different densities (?)! Several shadesticks, two mineralize skinfinishes (which look really different from previous launches), some shadows, and even the blush duos from Grand Duos!

The layers of arena footing?
Hello, this spring I am finally getting a riding arena! It has been the calving pen for the last few years but my grandparents have down sized and they only need the smaller one. This so call "arena" is a very oddly shaped paddock, its sort of a deformed hexagon and one length of it is a cover all tent. Its well fenced and has two large gates for tractors and one so I can bring calves in the work with.
As of right now the ground is fairly uneven so we are using a bobcat to level it come spring. The ground itself is thick clay that gets slippery when it rains. I am thinking I will need to mix it with some sort of rock? What sort of sand should I use and how much?
Thank you
RE: Horse Arena Footing
Hello Tasia,
I have a general information sheet about horse arena footing that I would be happy to email you. It gives some general information about arena footing with a focus on sand, but includes suggested layers / thicknesses.
We offer a couple of arena footing products that may help as well. See: Horse Arena Footing - Crumb Rubber & Arena Dust Control
Use the contact form on the site and I will send it over to you.

Your footing may depend on your discipline. For example...
Reiners/cowhorse people generally like a hard base with a few inches of light sand on top so their horses can slide and push through the sand. And rodeo types like a little deeper footing, sometimes a clay/sand mix. I am generalizing.
If you get sand, buy a washed sand even though it is a little more expensive. The dust won't be as bad when it is dry. And it will drain better when it rains or the snow melts.

Flowers IPM MoscowInternational horticultural exhibition
The Flowers IPM is the largest plant fair of Russia and the CIS countries. It takes place once a year in Moscow and is a must for all professionals in the fields of horticulture, plants and flower production. As the only exhibition of its kind it reflects the entire value chain from the plant growing on the floristics, technology and equipment up to the point of sale. The entire international horticultural industry is gathering here and presents flowers and plants in their full diversity. But also floristry highlights and the latest technological trends are presented to the visitors. In addition, the fair is an important platform for the entry into the Russian market, which is often successful just through trade fairs. Russia is one of the world's most dynamic markets and the growth policies with new investments are boosting this development. Therefore for international companies it is worth to enter the Russian market, because with the growing demand for flowers and plants increases the demand for innovative logistics and commercial solutions in terms of transport time reduction, quality improvement and increase profits, too. Here it is important to stay tuned and to address the technical challenges. Therefore the Flowers IPM as an offshoot of IPM Germany represents an optimal platform. The exhibition is accompanied by a comprehensive program that is always appreciated as a highlight of the show.
On the whole the organisers welcomed on the 3 days of the fair, from 27. August to 29. August 2014, about 302 exhibitors from 23 countries and 24984 visitors on the Flowers IPM in Moscow.
For the twenty-second time there is the Flowers IPM on 3 days from Thursday, 27.08.2015 to Saturday, 29.08.2015 in Moscow.

For One Day Only: $1=$4, Thanks to Matching from BIG Donors
"I feel mad because my brother is always breaking my things."
"I wish things weren't always so hard for him."
"I feel both happy and sad that she is my sister."
These are the words of "typically developing" siblings of children with disabilities, recounting their feelings about having a child with a disability in their family. While their overall feelings toward their siblings are positive, they do have some mixed and negative emotions due to the extra challenges that come from having a sibling with a disability.
Caring for a child with a disability can become an all-consuming task for a parent. That child winds up getting a disproportionate amount of the available parental time, energy and attention – sometimes at the expense of other children in the family.
The additional stress, responsibilities and behavioral challenges that are inherent in caring for a child with a disability can create special issues for the siblings. Issues which their already overburdened parents may have difficulty identifying and focusing on. Yet despite the challenges, or precisely because of them, often the siblings of a child with disabilities rise to the occasion. They respond to these extraordinary challenges by remaining remarkably well-adjusted, showing greater maturity, empathy and responsibility than could normally be expected from other children their age.
This kind of resilience from siblings is even more common when the parents manage to remain attuned and responsive to the concerns and needs of their typically developing children, despite the stress within the family.
Some of the challenges that siblings of children with disabilities may experience include:
Feelings of jealousy, sadness or resentment over the amount of time and attention given by their parents to their sibling with a disability.
Feelings of embarrassment around their peers or in the community over the behavior of their sibling with a disability.
Feelings of guilt for, at times, resenting their sibling with a disability.
Feeling frustrated or sad over their sibling's lack of responsiveness or ability to engage in play or family activities.
Dealing with an excessive amount of caregiving responsibility at home.
Experiencing anger or fear due to their sibling's behavior.
Feeling the need to compensate for their sibling's limitations.
Feeling anxiety over their sibling's well-being or safety.
Fears that they may suffer from the same genetic factor, which may be responsible for their sibling's disability.
Feeling sympathy or concern over their parents' sadness or distress due to their sibling's disability.
Fear that in the future they will have to undertake a greater role in caregiving for the sibling with the disability.
How Parents Can Help:
There are many positive actions that parents can take to address these concerns and ensure that their typically developing children's needs are met, even if they understandably cannot always balance their time and attention equitably. Open communication and a forum to problem-solve, can result in remarkable teamwork and closeness within the family as all members work together to promote the well-being of the child with a disability and the overall family unit.
Here are some specific suggestions:
Set the tone in your family with your own positive attitude toward your child with a disability. Try to manage your own emotions as best you can. If you can remain positive and optimistic about the child with a disability, and accept his limitations, the siblings will do the same. If you are open and proactive in seeking support from others to deal with the challenges of caring for this child, your other children will understand that it is OK for them to do the same.
Help your children to understand, to the extent they can, the challenges the family faces in caring for their sibling with a disability. Keep them informed over time, as their ability to understand matures with age, and the condition and status of their sibling changes. Teach them about their sibling's specific condition, what to expect, and what is being done to help him. Encourage them to ask their questions and express any fears they may have about how their sibling's condition may be affecting them. Also, give them advance warning of any significant changes in the care of their sibling, which may further disrupt their schedule, responsibilities or home environment.
Make it clear to your other children that you accept the primary responsibility for caring for your child with a disability, and that, while you want and appreciate their help and participation, theirs remains a supporting role. Parents should periodically review the care giving arrangements and other household duties, to make sure that the burden is not falling excessively upon the other children.
Validate your children's feelings, both positive and negative, about their sibling with a disability. Encourage them to express those feelings openly, and show them that you take their concerns seriously.
Maintain a safe environment for all your children, especially if your child with a disability exhibits aggressive behaviors towards his siblings. Teach his siblings how to avoid "triggering" an aggressive response, and give them a safe place to which they can retreat, when and if they feel it necessary.

Orlando was once a place where people came only to visit and vacation. Now it is home to a burgeoning Torah community, a place Jewish families can be proud to call home.
The smuggler's life has been changed forever. He is faced with a major criminal charge. He will probably be sent to prison.
"Thanks to a local philanthropist who shares our core mission, we now are able to connect more Jewish teens to Israel than ever before," said Todd Cohn, executive director of Southern NCSY.
In September 2013 he was appointed head rabbi of the IDF Central Command and is currently in charge of special projects for the IDF chief rabbinate.

Marceau suggested a dark reason for his wordless art: "The people who came back from the [concentration] camps were never able to talk about it…. My name is Mangel. I am Jewish. Perhaps that, unconsciously, contributed towards my choice of silence."
Anna Henriques, who hopes to one day head back to Jamaica, says, "Rabbi Raskin must be willing to respect what exists in Jamaica. The way to the future is to gently bring in the traditions of the past and at the same time embrace the idiosyncrasies of the Jamaican people."

It may be that seeking to connect with the past is rooted in the impermanence and impersonality of modern life.

We tend to justify and idealize this division with pride attributing these tendencies as demonstrating a higher level of kedushah.
There has been much made in the media about the stress on marriage and the high rates of divorce affecting couples who have a child with a developmental disability. Yet at the same time, counter studies have been published that refute many of these claims – reporting that this data has been exaggerated and that these families do not have a significantly higher divorce rate.
A friend of mine called me recently on her way home from a date. It was 11:30 p.m., and she was walking home from the subway, a 20-minute walk from her home. She said that she had a pleasant time, but was surprised when her date walked her to the subway at the end of the evening and said good night at 11 p.m. "Doesn't he realize that at this late hour he should be escorting me home?" she cried.
"I feel mad because my brother is always breaking my things."
"I wish things weren't always so hard for him."

Customer Reviews of Pillars of the Earth
Wish I'd seen this miniseries before it is that good. Of course I have since learned that the arches shown in the church at Kingsbridge did not exist in the 12 th century..took a while for them to reach England from Europe proper. Though they call one of the main characters Maud in this series, her real name was Mathilda and she was an Empress by the way. Her son Henry became known to the world as Henry II, Emperor and King. Think Thomas a Beckett. Also, this same Henry II was married to Eleanor of Aquitaine. His son Richard ( the Lion heart ) served in the Crusades and his son John ended up signing Magna Carta in 1215 AD. Royalty in England were not called Your Majesty in England until several centuries later...it was more proper to address a king as My Lord, the King, or Sire.

Tauzin continued, "We are an organization committed to putting the needs of patients first. For years, PhRMA has wholeheartedly supported the notion that people do not check into the doctor's office as a Republican or Democrat, but rather as a patient. PhRMA's advocacy efforts reflect this belief and it remains to this day, a primary reason why we support public policies that encourage medical innovation in the U.S."
Today's announcement follows a recent decision by the PhRMA's Board of Directors to establish a new Committee on Small Biopharmaceutical Companies, which is composed of full and research associate members. The committee was created to address the particular issues facing these smaller specialty companies, including the impact public policies may have on such an important sector of our economy.
The Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) represents the country's leading pharmaceutical research and biotechnology companies, which are devoted to inventing medicines that allow patients to live longer, healthier, and more productive lives. PhRMA companies are leading the way in the search for new cures. PhRMA members alone invested an estimated $50.3 billion in 2008 in discovering and developing new medicines. Industry-wide research and investment reached a record $65.2 billion in 2008.

Fort Pierce event aims to educate about male breast cancer
FORT PIERCE — Men get breast cancer, too.Sebastian resident Nancy N ick said the phrase is rarely uttered. Nick, 52, started the John W. Nick Foundation in 1995 after her father — the charity's namesake — died in 1991 at age 58 from the silent killer. She said she didn't know male breast cancer existed until her father was diagnosed.
Nick, who also copyrighted the phrase in 2007, hopes to raise awareness about male breast cancer and early detection during the foundation's inaugural Save the Pecs 5K run and walk at the Treasure Coast Public Safety Training Complex on April 21.
Indian River State College capstone students from the business program are helping organize the event, she said, which will include a silent action, prizes and information about the disease.
"People are very surprised that men get breast cancer," said Nick, who added although the foundation has held fashion shows and participated in health fairs, it still needs funding to reach a larger audience.
Nick said event proceeds will go toward the charity's information website. "Our foundation has been making the way for people to talk about breast cancer differently."
According to data provided on the foundation's website, approximately 2,030 new cases of male breast cancer are diagnosed annually in the U.S. and 450 deaths occur. She said statistics show the average male diagnosed with breast cancer is 65 years old.
Nick said in the past month alone, two male friends died from breast cancer. She hopes to erase the stigma also associated with the disease most dominant among women. Nick said her father, who was a seasonal Vero Beach resident, struggled with accepting his diagnosis.
"The hardest thing about male breast cancer is men feel alone because they have a woman's disease," Nick said. "Men love it when the foundation gives them information. They say, 'Wow. There's something out there for us.'"
Nick said early detection is key. She's urging men to conduct at-home, self-breast exams and wants doctors to start screening males for the disease. Risk factors include gynecomastia or breast enlargement in males, history of testicular or liver disease and a positive family history of breast cancer.
What: Save the Pecs 5K Run/Walk male breast cancer awareness event hosted by the John W. Nick Foundation
When: Saturday. Registration begins at 7 a.m. Run starts at 8 a.m.
Where: Treasure Coast Public Safety Training Complex, 4600 Kirby Loop Road in Fort Pierce
Registration fee: $25

A late bloomer on the larger Italian scene, Gesualdo Bufalino began publishing poetry and articles right after the Second World War, albeit in journals of limited circulation. It was not until 1981, when he was more than sixty years old, that his novel Diceria dell'untore (US: The Plague-Sower; UK: The Plague-Spreader's Tale) brought him wide recognition including a close finish for the Strega Prize garnered that year by Umberto Eco's blockbuster, The Name of the Rose. Buoyed by this book's success, in the last fifteen years of his life Bufalino published some twenty volumes of writings, among them two important novels and four lesser ones, …

Taiwanese PC makers are reportedly cold on Google's Chrome OS due to sluggish Chromebook sales and thin support from Google.
The operating system was a key component of Google chairman Eric Schmidt's message to Taipei's media and PC makers last week, where he promoted its new Chrome OS development centre for manufacturers in Taiwan.
But the nation's PC makers were unimpressed by Chrome OS, according to Taiwanese technology publication, DigiTimes, because sales of the Acer and Samsung Chromebooks in the month after its June launch were as low as 5,000 apiece.
Google did not disclose sales figures for the notebooks at its third quarter earnings update. The devices are yet to be released to the Australian market.
The company has attempted to accelerate sales in recent months, opening two retail outlets in the UK which expanded its consumer distribution there from only Amazon and Best Buy.
A key motivation for opening the UK pilot stores was to help Google discover whether consumers actually understood the device.
Acer already appears to have missed its target of a third quarter 2011 Australian release, while time is running out for Samsung to make its 2011 launch.
By the time Chromebooks arrive in Australia, business and schools should be able to purchase the devices with a single payment after Google relaxed its "subscription only" model last month.

Respond to Review of Hsi Lai Chinese Vegetarian Restaurant
by skymonkey
Review: we have been to a few of the buddhist light temples around the world, and usually go to their cafes with made to order food. this is the first time we have been to the hsi lai temple, a branch of the buddhist light based in taiwan. their buffet lunch serves a huge number of people. the lineup can be long, but they are pretty efficient at keeping the trays filled with hot food. at first sight, the food really does not look very appetizing, but it really tastes better then it looks. there isn't a huge selection. they take a few dishes which work and make huge quantities. we were only planning to stay for a light lunch, but ended up going back to fill our plates for the second, and third time. at 7 per person (they did not charge for our two-year-old son), it is obviously a steal.

Ben Becker: Money grab in college football
Call it chaos or realignment, but the landscape of college football is shifting like the San Andreas Fault that runs through most of the Pac-12 conference.
The Pac-12, who started the earthquake last year after poaching Colorado from the Big 12, are now saying thanks, but no thanks to Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas Tech and Texas.
You can be choosy when you have a $3 billion dollar media rights deal and are in no hurry to split revenue sixteen ways.
Meantime, the tremors are being felt 3,000 miles away.
Pittsburgh and Syracuse kicked the Big East to the curb for the Atlantic Coast Conference, with Connecticut and Rutgers possibly soon to follow. It would allow the ACC to gain a foothold in the heavily populated Northeast and enable the league to renegotiate the terms of its television contract.
The bottom line — the traditional rivalries of college football, not to mention basketball, are being tossed aside, along with the integrity and loyalty of the school presidents making the decisions.
The Miami Dolphins will be taking their talents to Cleveland on Sunday (1 p.m. CBS), and perhaps that is a good thing.
The Dolphins have lost 11-of-12 at home and have started a season 0-2 for the fifth time in the last six seasons. To make matters worse, they are quickly losing ground in the AFC East, as the Patriots, Jets and even the Bills are 2-0.
According to the Biglead.com, since the league went to the current 8-division format in 2002, there were 79 teams that started 2-0, and conversely 0-2. 58.2 percent of the teams that started 2-0 eventually made the playoffs, while only 10.1 percent of the teams that started 0-2 made it.
Head Coach Tony Sparano says he doesn't have any answers for the Dolphins troubles at home and he may not have a job if the losses, home or road, continue.
Giants at Eagles (1 p.m. FOX): The Eagles will be playing their first home game of the season, but it may be without quarterback Michael Vick, who suffered a concussion in last week's loss at Atlanta. The Eagles have won six straight over the Giants.
Packers at Bears (4:15 p.m. FOX): This is the most storied rivalry in the NFL. The Packers beat the Bears twice last year, including the NFC Championship game, on their way to winning the Super Bowl.
Steelers at Colts (8:15 p.m. NBC): The game loses a lot of luster with Peyton Manning still sidelined with a neck injury. The Colts are off to their first 0-2 start since 1994.
Redskins at Cowboys (8:30 p.m. ESPN): Tony Romo's status is up in the air with a cracked rib and a punctured lung. The Cowboys beat the 49ers last week, thanks to Romo's 77-yard pass in overtime to a guy named Jesse Holley. Holley got his first chance with the Cowboys three years ago, after winning Michael Irvin's reality show.
Talk about a Holley-Wood ending.

Five key lessons from Google for the voluntary sector
6 Jul 2015
Last week Hugh Rajodev heard two experts from Google pass on their digital tips to the charity sector....
Sorry for interrupting, but there is something we need to tell you...

What's the difference between fundamentalist Christians and social entrepreneurs? Not a lot, sometimes, says Robert Ashton.
I spent far too long this weekend locked in battle with a troll. No, I was not playing some new game on my iPad, but getting wound up by a guy on a LinkedIn group. He was, I think, what you would describe as a fundamentalist Christian. He would not budge from his standpoint that God had physically written the ten commandments and that we all therefore are duty bound to follow them.
In his case, this meant literally, although I think he was relying on an English translation of the ancient scripture. I tried to reason with him, which of course was pointless. He 'knew' he was right and thus any calls from me for pragmatism were met with scorn. Of course he is entitled to his view, but I was distinctly uncomfortable with the way he was quick to dismiss mine. As someone else commented, "it's why wars happen".
He refused to respond to my hypothesis that Christianity would be easier to believe if all Christians could agree on what it demanded. In my local city, Norwich, I know and respect two ministers who have opposing views on homosexuality. One wants to conduct gay marriages and the other wants to have gay people 'treated'.
But I am not going to launch an attack on organised religion. After all, religious groups founded some of the world's most successful charities. Religion can be, and often is, a force for good.
And so to my point. What's the difference between Christians and social entrepreneurs? Both set out to make the world a better place. Both contain radicals who can alienate the very people they most wish to influence. Answer: sadly too often there is no difference!
In all the work I do my starting point is always where my audience is standing. I might not agree with them, but unless I make the first move and recognise their posting, I will not move them at all. Social enterprise, like life itself, is a compromise. There's room for radical views and heated debate. But the priority surely has always be to help those you care about to move just a little way along the path to salvation.
Rachel Shackleton

Nice observation Robert! In my experience, both are extremely passionate and wanting to persuade about their 'truth' but I'd far rather spend time with a social entrepreneur (spoken as a true Christian...). Your description of starting from where the other is standing, is how Jesus always began conversations and encounters, which invariably led further down the line to radical views being expressed about social and spiritual transformation - usually falling on the deaf ears of the religious fundamentalist leaders of the day!

At this point, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., has publicly supported Rangel. After the two met Monday to discuss the situation, Pelosi said, "I see no reason why Mr. Rangel should step down." According to a spokesman for Pelosi, removing Rangel from his leadership position is "not off the table" but no such move will come until the House Ethics committee has completed its investigation.
Less than two months before Election Day, it's hard to ignore the potential political implications wrapped up in Rangel's financial woes. Republicans hold a minority in both the House and the Senate and face an uphill battle in November elections after dealing with a spate of congressional scandals involving big GOP names such as Tom DeLay and Ted Stevens.
Republicans could stand to benefit from a Democratic scandal that could help shift the nation's attention from those past debacles, or at least even the playing field a bit.
But it's unclear how large the Rangel scandal will loom in an election fraught with global issues with mammoth repercussions like the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the recent financial meltdown on Wall Street. But the buzzword du jour on the campaign trail is "reform," especially of the "Washington establishment," which Rangel is a part.
On Thursday, Gene Green, the acting House Ethics Committee chairman, announced that the committee will meet Wednesday to decide whether to move forward with the inquiry, which, congressional sources say, it is likely to do, because the investigation was triggered at Rangel's request.
Meanwhile, Rangel has hired an independent forensics accounting firm to go through his personal finances and look into any indiscretions. Lanny Davis, Rangel's attorney, said the results of that investigation will go directly to the House Ethics Committee. Rangel has also promised to turn over 20 years of tax returns and other financial records to the committee, which he will eventually make public.
In the letter released by his campaign today, Rangel defended himself. It read, in part: "My record in the Ways and Means Committee and 38 years in Congress is unassailable. … I've never violated the public trust, so I'm not worried."

SATAN'S ANGEL: QUEEN OF THE FIRE TASSELS Set for 3/5 DVD Release
Breaking Glass Pictures have announced the March 5 DVD release of Satan's Angel: Queen of the Fire Tassels (SRP $24.99). Angel Walker rose through the ranks of the burlesque scene, bringing to the stage a delectable mix of sex, passion, and the fires of Hell. In Queen of the Fire Tassels, Director Josh Dragotta documents her love for the craft and commitment to the preservation of burlesque.
Angel Walker is Satan's Angel, a legend in the world of burlesque who travels the Globe with her wife Vic to entertain her legions of devoted fans. This riveting documentary explores Angel and Vic's private and public life, and enlists a collection of today's hottest burlesque stars sharing their insight on Angel's influence to an art form that has withstood the test of time. Angel's legacy is filled with San Francisco counter culture, Las Vegas stage door johns, and a sexuality she refused to closet.
She has amassed four decades worth of fascinating, colorful, and behind the scenes stories as she's traveled the world performing the art of burlesque. From nights with the Rat Pack to tripping with the Doors, from traveling with Bob Hope in the USO to coming out of retirement to huge crowds, Satan's Angel: Queen of the Fire Tassels gives audiences a candid glimpse into burlesque's hottest and most outspoken legend.
Satan's Angel: Queen of the Fire Tassels received audience acclaim at a number of film festivals including Outfest, Helsinki International Film Festival, Austin Gay and Lesbian International Film Festival, Scottsdale International Film Festival, Corona Cork Film Festival and Seattle Lesbian and Gay Film Festival.
The DVD will come complete with extended interviews, promotional footage, a photo gallery and more. Breaking Glass Co-President Richard Ross said, "Angel has had a spectacular career, and her stories of life as a burlesque superstar from glory days to tarnished decline to respectable rebirth are simply astounding. After watching this, you'll want much more of Angel and thankfully the DVD extras provide that!"

Argh. The Reds get the Cards' best.
Maybe the bullpen can get Lohse a win. I have to say I have been pleasantly suprised with him. Now is not the time for the league to figure him out.
I thought league average bullpen arms looked better than this
I'm pulling for 2 out of 3 and then head home for the Pirates... where I think then we will be able to take over 1st!Originally Posted by Falls City Beer
Can't win if you don't score.3 Runs in 3 games Vs the vaunted Pirates staff
The Hunt for a Reds October.
I think the key game is Arroyo's. He has to have a good outing to get his Mojo back. I saw an article that Arroyo has been pretty nasty in September, going back to 03,04,05. Let's hope he finds the magic again.
1st pick of the 2022 baseball amateur draft
The real key is for Bronson to rething his pitch location to lefties. The slider that comes down and in to lefties seem to go out of the park pretty well since must left handed batters like the ball low.
I thought league average bullpen arms looked better than this
While the Pirates' staff may not be vaunted, Maholm and Snell are both quality young pitchers, who at this point are throwing better than almost anyone in our rotation not named Harang.Originally Posted by Fullboat
Arroyo needs to start throwing more fastballs to lefties. His curveball breaks right into a lefty's wheelhouse, and it seems like he throws them 70% of the time. Now is the time for Bronson to make a counter-adjustment. If the Reds are going to make the playoffs, he must the pitcher from April and May. Lately, he's been nothing more than a right-handed Eric Milton.
to be the best u gotta beat the best
It's time to make a statement.
Sweep or bust.
Go Gators!
Arroyo has to throw the curve to make his fastball effective against lefties. He has been having an awful time locating, however.Originally Posted by kyred14
If you track Arroyo's pitches, you will find he throws about 50% fastballs and 25% curveballs to both righties and lefties. He goes to that slider about 25% of the time versus righties. Versus lefties he splits the last 25% between his slider and the change. He may vary a bit from game to game, but that is pretty much how he has pitched since I started watching him with the Red Sox back in '04.
Again, as with most pitchers, his problem has been location and not really what he has been throwing.
