BROOK IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST WANKERS TO EVER FIGHT IN A BRITISH RINGPosted July 15, 2013 11:16 am
Yes, Brazilian Fan; the fight with Alexander fell out, so time to put it back on. Jones is a tough journeyman, but has never been considered one of the division's elite. It is, indeed, time for Brook to step up. He doesn't need any more stepping stone fights. Khan, Alexander, Broner, are all tough tasks for Brook, but he is as ready as he'll ever be. He is ready to step out of the top twenty, and start facing the top ten. That is where the money is.Posted July 15, 2013 10:36 am

For his next fight, I want to see Brook getting a title shot against Devon Alexander.Posted July 15, 2013 9:51 am
Brook should change his nick to "Special K."Posted July 15, 2013 9:48 am

A shot at EBU champion Leonard Bundu could well be an option as at 37 Bundy could be a handy scalp. Someone's 0 would have to go. This fight could also be a final eliminator for a World title of some sorts. Things are a bit confused @ 147Lb, PBF's obviously back @ 154, so who's #1 @ 147? My guess is Timothy Bradley. Next year I think we're gonna get Brook vs Frankie Gavin.Posted July 15, 2013 1:19 am

Peej I don't think so just yet.
He is still growing as a fighter and he needs further gradual steps up in opponents.
A fading but good name is perfect for his next fight, then possibly one more fight (In the USA) vs a good opponent, then a title shot would be great IMO.
I really like watching Brook fight but he really needs more work on his stamina, and inside fighting.
Go Brook!Posted July 14, 2013 4:36 pm

Our baby boy - Raleigh Franklin
Born 12/8/12 at 35 weeks 1 day
No real birthing plan...Just know generally what I want and don't want.. Of course I am going in with knowing that things don't always turn out the way we want it, so I will be flexible too.

Nope! I see no point since it would most likely go out the window and I know I want the epi so that's easy. Just remember to be flexible and not too hung up on your birth plan needing to stay perfectly in place because you don't want to feel disappointed or cheated or freaked out if it doesn't all go to plan.
I am super flexible actually. I don't really care how the baby is born, as long as it's healthy & as long as I can be drugged. But there are a few things I feel very strong about that I will NOT let anyone change...like breastfeeding. If a nurse gives my baby formula, that nurse will no longer have a face. So my birth plan is more like I want my husband there at all times, I want to exclusivly breastfeed, I want delayed clamping of the cord, things that really can't change no matter what the situation turns out to be....but I was told that it is best to have it in writing, so I am making sure I do!

ClassicsOnline Home » TELEMANN, G.P.: 12 Fantasies for solo violin (Hadelich) > Review List
Highly characterful and unfailingly inventive, Telemann's Twelve Fantasies for Solo Violin were written with an eye to the amateur or student market. They explore the possibilities of solo violin writing with suggestions of polyphony and modest elements of double and triple stopping, while making use of instrumental forms derived from the sonata or the suite, often with an overt debt to Corelli and his Italian successors. American Record Guide proclaimed that "the future of great violin playing is safe and very bright in Augustin Hadelich's 24-year-old hands" of Haydn's Violin Concertos (8.570483), recorded after he won the 2006 International Violin Competition of Indianapolis.

I've been acquainted with Telemann's fantasias for flute/recorder for a long time: fine examples of melodic and technically demanding little works. The fantasias for violin, though, are considerably weightier, not necessarily in length or format, but by being able to convey emotion and depth. Augustin Hadelich in this case does not miss an opportunity to indulge in that aspect of the music, turning in stellar and richly inspired performances, captured in wonderfully warm acoustics.
George Philipp Telemann was one of the most prolific composers of the early 18th century and more famous in his lifetime than Johann Sebastian Bach. His style of composition did move with the times, though his Twelve Fantasies for Solo Violin were written with an eye to the amateur or student market and were not representative of his output at the time of composition in 1735. Each Fantasia is in several contrasting movements, many being in dance rhythm, and make much use of double and triple stopping to add weight to the texture. It has a passing similarity to Bach's unaccompanied Sonatas and Partitas, though without the same level of pungency. They are played by the winner of the 2006 Indianapolis International Violin Competition, Augustin Hadelich, an Italian violinist of German parentage who has already made a most desirable disc for Naxos of Haydn's Violin Concertos [8.570483]. With a formidable technique he introduces a virtuoso element, often by highlighting dynamic contrasts. It is a view that looks backwards from the 21st century, the tone often warmed by vibrato, the shape of movements arrived at from one versed in modern traditions. If you compare it with recordings using a Baroque violin, you will there discover Telemann's biting astringency, though I guess most listeners will be happy with Hadelich. Sample track 8 to tell you everything about the disc, including the excitement of Hadelich's central 'spirituoso' section. The recording from Naxos's familiar Canadian team places him in a nice church acoustic.

Imperfect game caps perfect season
With pressure on and nothing going right, Huskies again find a way to win
Originally Published: April 6, 2010By Mechelle Voepel | Special to ESPN.com
SAN ANTONIO -- Maybe it just figured that this time, the perfect season ended with an imperfect game. Connecticut coach Geno Auriemma kept saying this NCAA tournament wasn't preordained. And, indeed, for a while Tuesday night, it didn't look as if the Huskies were the team that had not lost a game during the last two seasons.
They looked more like a team that hadn't won one in that time.
"It's not supposed to be easy, right?" Auriemma said.
It certainly ...

Jazz Pharmaceuticals' product candidate for once-daily treatment of epilepsy and bipolar disorder, JZP-4, incorporates a new chemical entity that inhibits both sodium and calcium channels in vitro and has shown efficacy in animal models. Two proof-of-concept clinical studies in healthy volunteers and patients demonstrated activity in well-validated epilepsy models. Jazz Pharmaceuticals plans to begin enrolling subjects in a Phase II trial of JZP-4 for the treatment of epilepsy during the third quarter of 2008.
Jazz Pharmaceuticals also disclosed three additional early-stage programs: a solid oral dosage form of sodium oxybate; a new chemical entity that is a structural analog of valproic acid for the treatment of epilepsy and bipolar disorder; and a new chemical entity that is a triple reuptake inhibitor for major depressive disorder. Both of the new chemical entities are in early feasibility studies and Jazz Pharmaceuticals has established clear targets to advance them into full development.
Financial Updates
Jazz Pharmaceuticals provided guidance forecasting selling, general and administrative expenses during 2008 to be in the range of $130 million to $140 million, reflecting the expanded sales force, launch activities related to LUVOX CR and costs associated with being a public company. Research and development spending during 2008 is expected to be in the range of $60 million to $70 million.
Jazz Pharmaceuticals also announced that it has amended its agreement with Solvay Pharmaceuticals, Inc., to defer the payment of milestones triggered by the approval and launch of LUVOX CR.

What a great project. Getting to safe and reliable for use is a worthy goal. I see a two stage process. First stage is partial dissassebly for cleaning and inspection.
Safety means new tires and tubes.
A through cleaning of tank, petcocks and carbs is required for reliability. Do that once right and be done with that. Do pull the front cover. Go over all the wiring terminals under there as well as the headlight pod and under tank area. Clean and tight everywhere.
Just standard maintenance elsewhere. Valves, oil and filter, lube, splines, head bearing and swingarm tension, the basics. New battery then just test all lights and switches.
Flush and renew the brake fluid, then pull the handle as hard as you can and verify firm and no leaks. Rebuild master and calipers if required.
Then you can fire it up and test drive, tune the carbs.
Stage two is to put a few hundred miles on it and see if you got some leaking seals somewhere and monitoring for proper function of all systems.
Sure hope it wasn't stored with gas in the tank and carbs.

Letter to the Editor: Use less oil
Wylie Harris, Saint Jo, Texas
Regarding "Our Opinions," Sept. 3: Contrary to the statement in the column, the United States is emphatically NOT energy independent, nor is it a net oil exporter. Neither is this country likely to become either of those things by any increase in domestic oil and gas production.
A quick review of data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (http://www.eia.gov/totalenergy/) clearly shows that the United States, in one day, currently consumes about 15 million barrels of crude oil; roughly two-thirds of that is imported. Domestic crude oil production in the U.S. peaked in the early 1970s, and has since declined to about half that peak level, even as the number of active rigs has doubled over the past decade.
The claim that the United States is a net oil exporter has its roots in the fact that this country has recently begun exporting more refined petroleum (some 2 million barrels per day) than it imports (about 1 million barrels per day). Exporting gasoline is not the same thing as "exporting oil."
As a path to increasing U.S. energy independence, using less looks far more realistic to me than producing more. It would be nice to see a presidential candidate who shared that view.

Coastal bend business leader: Tommy Northcutt
CORPUS CHRISTI - Tommy Northcutt
Managing Partner, Mr. Fancy Pants' Carwash; Mr. Fancy Pants' Express Wash
Address: 7213 and 5329 S. Staples St.
Phone: (361) 334-1718; (361) 723-2142
Website: www.MrFancyPantsCarwash.com
Company description: Mr. Fancy Pants Car Wash provides safe, easy, convenient and efficient car washing services at two locations. At the 5329 Staples location, you don't even leave your car. At the 7213 Staples, the carwash facilities are self-service.
Your Hometown: Lockhart
Years in business: six years
Tenure in position: six years
Education: In 1977, I graduated Lockhart High School.
First job: When I was 15, I worked as a bus boy and dishwasher at the Hiway House Restaurant in Lockhart. It was hot and the sink was dirty in that kitchen, but if I didn't wash the plates, pots and pans, the restaurant could not keep going. I learned that work can be hard and that everyone's part is important.
Biggest career break: I spent four years in the Marines after high school, worked various jobs for about a year and then was accepted into the Army Warrant Officer Flight Program. I became a maintenance manager/helicopter maintenance test pilot and retired at Corpus Christi Army Depot. The jobs I had in the Army gave me the technical know-how to start and run this business. Moving to Corpus Christi was our break. My wife, Kristi, and I had always wanted our own business. My job in the Army was stable. Bob and Sue Bequet became close friends and advisers. We realized we needed a partner. I met Daniel Davis at a local retreat and he became our partner. Kristi is our chief financial officer and handles all the paperwork and I handle day-to-day operations.
Business turning point: Our first Mr. Fancy Pants' Carwash at 7213 Staples took off pretty much from the beginning in 2005. Our research showed that the Southside needed a carwash and we were the blessed ones who opened one. My son-in-law, Steve Tschirhart, came up with the name and Daniel Davis designed the surfer logo. In 2008, we decided to open a conveyor-based express wash. We found the land at 5329 Staples. We opened in 2009. This wash took longer to catch on, but is now performing nicely.
Business philosophy: The customers are why we are here. We wanted to bring customer service to even a self-serve wash. In training meetings I always ask our staff, "What is your job?" The right answer is: "To make happy repeat customers." We always want to make it right. We are grateful for all the wonderful people around us — customers, employees, vendors, family and friends.
How would you improve the Coastal Bend's business climate? The city could use more destination things to do. That not only brings tourists, but also more businesses, which hire more people, which brings more people.
How has your business changed with today's economic climate? We are small dollar purchase that a person looks at every time they get in their car. We have been affected by the recession, but things are better this year. We have learned to focus even more on quality.

Phoenix Suns
Suns notes: Scola gives, Brown takes
Aside from the foreign background and free-flowing hairstyle, Luis Scola will never be mistaken for Steve Nash out on the basketball court.
Monday though, Scola dialed up his inner-Nash with a career-high ten assists against Sacramento.
"I've been playing for a couple of years now so I think I understand the game a little bit better," Scola said of a Suns performance matched only one other time this season (Goran Dragic, Nov. 2 vs. Detroit).
"With a little time playing for this time I've started to learn my teammates a little bit better too," Scola continued. "The number of assists doesn't really matter but the fact that if I could be effective of helping other teammates to get shots and help the team have a little bit of a flow is going to be important I think."
Scola became just the fifth non-guard to record double-digit assists in a game this season, joining Kevin Durant, Al Horford, Greg Monroe and Nicolas Batum.
The Suns caught a glimpse of what Scola could do with the basketball in his hand very early in training camp. He had a game-high five assists in the team's final scrimmage before departing San Diego.
"When you've got smart guys on the basketball court that know what to do with the ball when they get it, it makes it easier on the whole team," Shannon Brown said.
So while Scola giveth, Brown taketh away.
With 2:32 remaining in the game, Brown picked off a DeMarcus Cousins pass for his one and only steal on the night. It was, however, his 11th straight game of at least one steal, setting a new career-high.
"Just trying to lock in with the defense," Brown said of the streak. "We're going to put pressure on the guys, whether it's doubling or whether we trap a guy. I just want to be there if they try to make a lazy pass and just get it and get out and run and get some easy baskets.
"It is kind of an art to it," he added, "because you've got to be on the same page with all of your teammates. If I don't get that pass, I've got to trust that they've got my back. So, if I'm on point and I get the pass, we're off to the races."
�The starting lineup of Dragic, Brown, Dudley, Scola and Gortat is 3-0; it's the first Suns starting squad this season to win its first three games together. Alvin Gentry has used five starting lineups this season.
�Gentry on his team's season-high three-game winning streak, "What can we say? Break up the Suns, right?"

Ted Cruz: Pray To Stop The 'Assault on Marriage'
The Christian Broadcasting Network has released more footage from the recent Religious Right summit in Iowa organized by David Lane and featuring speakers like Ted Cruz and Rand Paul. Cruz, who told CBN in an interview that gay rights advocates intend to dispose of the First Amendment and pass hate speech laws, won plaudits from the audience of conservative activists for his attacks on gay rights advocates and "judicial activism."
"On marriage there is no issue in which we need to be more on our knees because the momentum is with the opponents of traditional marriage," Cruz said. "We're facing an assault on marriage."
He scolded "unelected judges" who think "we know better" on marriage, and urged pastors to "to speak to your congregations and to mobilize the people, and mobilize them more than anything to pray."
On marriage there is no issue in which we need to be more on our knees because the momentum is with the opponents of traditional marriage. We saw a decision from the US Supreme Court, a decision that some have herald, even some conservatives have herald, I think that decision was an abject demonstration of judicial activism. Five unelected judges saying we are going to set aside the policy preference of the state of California, the citizens not of some crazy right-wing state—California. The citizens of California went to vote and they voted and said in the state of California we want marriage to be the traditional union of one man and one woman, and the US Supreme Court, as a result of its decision said you have no right to define marriage in your state, we know better. We're facing an assault on marriage. As pastors, each of you has a special responsibility and a special ability to speak to your congregations and to mobilize the people, and mobilize them more than anything to pray.

Toyota's other three-row-seating, body-on-frame V8-powered sport utility vehicle carries through unchanged, despite its Tundra sibling's recent freshening.
The 381-horsepower 5.7-liter V8 is a capable grunt-master; rear- and optional four-wheel-drive.
While General Motors is getting all the attention with its thoroughly reworked family of full-size truck-based SUVs for 2015, Toyota is holding steady with its rough-and-ready Sequoia. For something this large, you get nothing less than up-to-eight-passenger capacity and a cargo hold to match. The three-section (40/20/40) second-row bench seat can be moved forward or back across a six-inch range while the third-row 60/40 split bench comes with a reclining seatback. You can also substitute the second-row three-person bench seat for twin high-back buckets. All but the driver's seat can be folded flat for toting big and bulky loads and the liftgate includes a handy power window. The Sequoia is adapted from the Tundra pickup and looks similar from the front doors forward, although the SUV hasn't received the alterations made to its sibling for the 2014 model year. Also Tundra-based is its sole powerplant: all models use the 381-horsepower 5.7-liter V8 and six-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel-drive is standard while four-wheel-drive is optional. The well-equipped base SR5 includes tri-zone (driver, passenger and rear) air conditioning, manual tilt and telescoping steering wheel, cruise control, power windows, front and rear parking sensors, eight-speaker audio system, headlamp washers and 18-inch alloy wheels. The Limited adds a leather-clad interior, overhead console, heated and power-retracting outside mirrors, running boards, roof rack, 14-speaker audio package and fancier dash trim. Along with the stouter V8, the Platinum comes with a power sunroof, power rear hatch, heated and air conditioned front seats, power tilt/telescopic steering wheel, navigation system, power fold-flat third-row seat, 20-inch wheels and a load-leveling rear suspension. For the 2015 model year, Toyota offers an optional rear-seat entertainment system that plays Blu-Ray movie discs.

Raspberry Baked Alaska Pie
|Vanilla ice cream
|3 Pint
|3 Ounce (1 Package)
|Orange flavor liqueur
|1⁄3 Cup (5.33 tbs)
|Frozen raspberries
|10 Ounce, in quick-thaw pouch, slightly thawed (1 Package)
|Egg whites
|4 (At Room Temperature)
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|Cream of tartar
|1⁄8 Teaspoon
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs)
1. Remove ice cream from container to large bowl; let stand at room temperature to soften slightly, stirring occasionally.
2. Meanwhile, line bottom and side of 9-inch pie plate with about two-thirds of ladyfingers, allowing rounded ends to extend slightly over pie-plate rim; sprinkle with half of orange-flavor liqueur. In medium-sized bowl, with potato masher or slotted spoon, crush raspberries to consistency of a paste.
3. Drop spoonfuls of raspberries onto ice cream; with knife, cut through mixture once or twice to create marbled effect. Keeping mar bled effect, spoon half of ice-cream mixture into pie plate. Layer remaining ladyfingers on top of ice cream; sprinkle with remaining liqueur. Spoon remaining ice cream onto ladyfingers. Freeze until firm, at least 4 hours.
4. About 20 minutes before serving, preheat oven to 500°F. Prepare meringue: In small bowl, with mixer at high speed, beat egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar until soft peaks form; beat in sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating until sugar completely dissolves and whites stand in stiff, glossy peaks. With spoon, quickly spread meringue over top of pie, sealing to edge and swirling meringue with back of spoon to make attractive top. Bake 2 to 3 minutes, until meringue is lightly browned. Serve pie immediately.

Product description
This founding work of the history of religions, first published in English in 1954, secured the North American reputation of the Romanian migr-scholar Mircea Eliade (1907-1986). Making reference to an astonishing number of cultures and drawing on scholarship published in no less than half a dozen European languages, Eliade's The Myth of the Eternal Return makes both intelligible and compelling the religious expressions and activities of a wide variety of archaic and "primitive" religious cultures. While acknowledging that a return to the "archaic" is no longer possible, Eliade passionately insists on the value of understanding this view in order to enrich our contemporary imagination of what it is to be human. Jonathan Z. Smith's new introduction provides the contextual background to the book and presents a critical outline of Eliade's argument in a way that encourages readers to engage in an informed conversation with this classic text.

I play all sorts of games. I have multiple names for almost infinite things that I do. My main names in the games I play are: Dragonslayer0093, Hawkian, Professor Hawk, Master Hawkian, BloodZealot, and SlayerHawk. I like a ton of different games, but the ones that I really keep track of on here are: C&C RA2/YR, Starcraft, Warcraft 3, and Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds. I'm working on becoming a better player and a better map creator for all of these games. I also have worked a bit with the SWGB AI scripting, even though it did kick my butt a few times, I still tried to work with it, and may try again in the future. I'll test whatever anyone wants me to test, I like playing on maps that I have never tried before and I like testing things and pushing it to the limit.

Is teaching mathematics an art or a science? If it is an art, then only highly talented people will be successful teachers of mathematics. For an art, which is largely dependent on creativity, can be learned only to a limited extent; the rest must come intuitively. If mathematics teaching is a science, then anyone capable of learning to teach mathematics, regardless of talent, should be able to do it.
We consider the teaching of mathematics both an art and a science. One needs a certain amount of innate ability to teach successfully. With the rarest exceptions, this ability needs to be buttressed in varying amounts with sociological, psychological, philosophical, and common-sense principles. In this book, we provide the prospective and inservice teacher of mathematics a plethora of ideas covering all aspects of the profession, ideas that we believe will support the artist in everyone. In many cases we provide solid, experience-tested suggestions. One could possibly entitle the book Everything You Wanted to Know about Teaching Mathematics but Didn't Know Whom to Ask.
The first part of the book discusses methods of teaching mathematics, considering all aspects and responsibilities of the job. We begin with an overview of the history of mathematics education so that the teacher of mathematics today understands how the teaching of mathematics has evolved. After describing the rudiments of lesson planning, we discuss the aspects of teaching that make for effective instruction. Since one of the most important aspects of mathematics instruction is the students' ability to solve problems both inside and outside the classroom, we have devoted an entire chapter to this topic. We approach problem solving in a variety of ways: from its instructional underpinnings to its recreational and motivational aspects. One difficult issue is the rapidly changing world of technology. There are two problems. First, no sooner will this book be printed than there will likely be changes in the technology available to the mathematics instructional program. At the same time, there are many schools in the United States that are less fortunate than others and do not yet have the technology described here available for teacher use. We have attempted to address the issues and situations to cover the majority of today's schools.
Mathematics teachers have additional responsibilities beyond the regular instructional program. They must concern themselves with enriching instruction for gifted and not so gifted students, and ought to provide their more motivated students with extracurricular activities to further stretch their interest in mathematics. We conclude the first part of the book with a discussion of the professional responsibilities of mathematics teachers.
We make a conscious effort not to tell the teacher how to deal with every situation. Rather we attempt, as much as possible, to provide alternatives to allow the teachers to make professional judgments about their teaching performance. This is as it should be; no one method of teaching is suitable for all teachers. Personality differences among teachers dictate varying methods of instruction, and what works for one teacher may not work for another.
The second part of the book provides mathematics teachers with a collection of enrichment units appropriate for the entire secondary school curriculum spectrum. Each unit states its objective(s), provides a means for pre-assessment, and then provides an in-depth description of the subject so that a reader unfamiliar with the topic can easily learn it. This development is accompanied by suggestions for teaching the topic to a secondary school class. A post-assessment is provided to help determine the level of learning (mastery) of the topic taught. There is a subject matter cross-index provided at the beginning of the section to enable teachers to select units by topic and grade level.
The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics 2000 Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (Standards) are referred to throughout the book. No one knows where the future emphases in the teaching of mathematics will be. Currently, the Standards are determining the agenda. Clearly, the significant technological advances we are seeing today, coupled with a decline in the cost of computers and calculators, will have a major impact on how mathematics is taught in the future. However, in many parts of the United States there is still uncertainty about the direction that mathematics education should take. We have therefore taken a forward-looking yet cautious approach to the teaching of mathematics, relying, when in doubt, on time-tested methods and ideas.
In effect the reader has within the covers of this book a complete resource on how to teach mathematics, including "the tricks of the trade:" Also provided here is an invaluable collection of enrichment material that can be easily adapted to classes of all levels, to enhance instruction and to motivate students to study mathematics with interest and enthusiasm.
The book is intended primarily for two audiences: for pre-service training of mathematics teachers for the secondary schools, and for inservice teachers of mathematics who are seeking to improve their teaching skills and increase their resources through formal coursework.

A big hand
Thanks to those in the tough jobs
Copyright: 2014 Houston Chronicle | August 29, 2014 | Updated: September 2, 2014 6:17pm
Photo By Larry Kolvoord/MBRIn this photo from Tuesday May 20, 2008, Amos Castillo, center, throws a toilet into the City compactor truck as fellow Solid Waste workers, Marcus Rutledge, left. (AP Photo/Austin American-Statesman, Larry Kolvoord)
It's been 120 years since Congress designated Labor Day as a national holiday. Much progress in working conditions has been made since the days when women could be fired for pregnancy and security guards beat striking workers with clubs, but hard jobs with long hours still exist. Consider two examples: The average solid waste employee who hauls heavy dangerous loads for low wages.
Similarly, assisted living centers pay low wages to those who clean, bathe and feed older and disabled residents. Seldom do we thank those who pick up our solid waste or who take care of the vulnerable, and Labor Day provides an opportunity to acknowledge the dignity of those who labor in difficult conditions.
It should also be a day when all of us reflect on our own relationship with the work we do with our hands. Many of our ancestors labored on farms where men and women possessed a variety of skills that might include not only planting and harvesting, but also blacksmithing, canning, roping, churning butter and making candles.
As time has rolled on, the number of white collar jobs has risen alongside economic disparities between the haves and have-nots. Many who sit behind desks all day are becoming increasingly disconnected from any type of manual labor.
While we give acknowledgment and recognition to those who toil for us in low-wage but necessary jobs, let us also celebrate the dignity that all of us can find in working with our hands. In watching television and surfing the Internet, we should not lose the ability to mow our lawns, bake our bread, change our tires or at least change our light bulbs.
Peter J. McGuire, general secretary of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, may have been the first in suggesting a day to honor those "who from rude nature have delved and carved all the grandeur we behold." Labor is not something for others. All who can should do our best to retain the ability to delve and carve grandeur from our world with our hands.

Mark opens Grand Inn and Suites in Ijebu Ode
President of the Senate, David Mark, has opened a 60-room luxury hotel in Ijebu Ode. The opening ceremony of the hotel, Grand Inn and Suites, was done early this week.
Speaking on the hotel, Mark commended its proprietor, Senator Lekan Mustapha, for investing such a huge sum of money to build the hotel in his community instead of taking such a project to a place like Lagos or Abuja where he stands to make more money.
He urged other public office holders to emulate the noble gesture. He described the hotel as first class and said it would improve the general profile of the town.
On the project, the Awujale of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Adetona, said the hotel by Senator Mustapha is a reflection of the Ijebu spirit that whatever an Ijebu indigene is determined to accomplish, he usually achieves it. The traditional ruler said he was proud to recommend the hotel facility, not just to the indigenes, but visitors to Ijebuland. He used the opportunity to lobby the Senate President for the creation of Ijebu State.
Senator Mustapha said it was his desire to create opportunities for the indigenes of Ijebu that informed the siting of the hotel in town, rather than any overriding profit motive. He said he also realized that the tourism industry is one of the areas with huge potential that has not been utilized maximally by the country, hence his desire to venture into it.
He said: "When you get involved in tourism, it means you want to bring people to your environment. Tourism is an underdeveloped area of our economy. It is an area that I believe can really grow our economy, if it is properly harnessed. It is an area that has not been fully tapped,That is why I decided to go into it. Maybe because the returns on investment are very slow, it might be one of the reasons, but it is an everlasting thing, if it is properly kept and managed.
Basically, what we have done is to make it a first-class standard, so that when you come, you will tell those who have not been here.
Speaking on the hotel, the head of the hospitality management group handling the hotel, Mr. Doran Umansky, said: "It is a new standard in Ijebu that we don't have before and this will attract a lot of customers that ordinarily wouldn't come to Ijebu.
Most of the rooms are standard with king-size beds. It is really luxury.
"The owner has invested a lot of money, taking into consideration the Ijebu market price. Yes, it is affordable and there is a lot of events in the town. People are coming here and looking for quality rooms.
"Target market is conferences and business tourists. We have a meeting room for 50, a hall that sits 500 cinema style and 300 people round table. It is a big capacity for this area."

Bubbagump gets my vote - just kept being 'drawn' to it
The7Artist7: really good, love the detail and composition - I dont kno why I didnt vote for you
Me,Myself & Me Again: pretty nice, only crit is the anatomy - spawn seems to shrink under his cloak and you seem to have had a bit of trouble with ghostrider's leg
TobbA: shame that the poses are slightly rigid, as the painting looks pretty good and you have a good idea behind it

Ok. So I'll try to give a few crits and hope it's helpful
tobbA: Pretty nice. Fix Spawns pose tho... looks stupid. And maybe it's a little too saturated or something... The cloak could be more spawny too
MoHog: Looks cool. Biggest crit would be to use more color though. Right now it's evident you've only made a b&w drawing and slapped on some red and green in select places. I think the bg could have used a bit more stuff going on too...
BubbaGump: Cool stylization. Maybe the perspective on Deadpools arms is a bit too extreme... can't really find much more to say tho
Me, Myself & Me Again, Looks cool... Maybe work some on proportions and perspective tho. Spawn looks a bit like he has no legs
The7Artist7: Gets my vote. Really like how you made deadpool... Maybe not perfect anatomy but still drawn in a very dynamic way I think Ghost Rider have some proportion issues tho, and maybe he's a little big compared to Deadpool..

TobbA: - Nice pic! It is vibrant with an interesting viewpoint showing depth. I also like the areas of careful detail like ghostrider's skull and hand. The things which I feel could be better are the overall rendering as it looks a bit unfinished and the anatomy looks rushed in places also. the only other thing is spawn's cloak confuses your eye where it goes behind ghostrider's head and flames. Overall cool!
MoHog - Something keeps drawing me to this one - I think it's the way you've captured the movement, interaction between the characters and weighting of their poses. I actually like the simplicity of the colours but agree that the rendering could have been handled better - in areas it really looks quite 'muddy'. The anatomy is really quite good apart from the legs where the muscles are slightly odd. Overall You got my vote!
BubbaGump - Very nice piece! I love the way you have really nailed the style and use colour well in a strong and balanced way - ghostrider's flames really work well. You've also got very confident linework and captured the characters. Unfortunately, the awkwardness of the hands and the strange angle of the blades Deadpool is holding detract from the strength of the rendering for me just enough to miss my vote. I feel mean as it's a cool pic! Overall very nice!
M3 - Cool! You've captured the characters and used an unusual idea. The colours are again nice and vibrant with plenty of contrast and clarity. There is a real 'showdown' vibe going on and some nice details. Unfortunately, it's a little unfinished, the interaction between the characters is a bit static* and I'm not exactly sure what's happening? Overall I like it!
*It looks like Spawn is trying to drag Ghostrider towards him and Ghostrider is trying to ride into/over Spawn - which leads the viewer to be confused as surely the tension should be in opposing directions?
The7Artist7 - I really quite like how this one turned out, it's fun energetic and captured Deadpool quite well. some areas are a bit rushed and anatomy could do with more attention especially on ghostrider. Overall enjoyable
Phew! It was a hard one to vote on this time as all the pics were very cool in different ways - thanks guys for the comments!

Good stuff everybody! Here are some crits.
TobbA: Good colors, but the poses are awkward and lack dynamic rythm. The anatomy and the line of action is particularly weak in the spawn part of the drawing. I also believe Ghost Rider could've been closer towards the viewer for more dynamism and depth.
MoHog: I like the concept and execution! Background could've been more colorful and some tangents could've been avoided but I like it.
BubbaGump: W00t!
Me,Myself & Me Again: Awesome colors. Ghost Rider could've been closer towards the viewer and Spawn could've had better proportions. Ghost Rider's foreshortening looks really awkward too (it looks like he's decapitated waste down), but a really solid and good piece!
The7Artist7: I like the poses and the skewed anatomy, but the proportions look kiddy-like and the composition I feel is very weak. Deadpool's sword could've been foreshortened towards the viewer so there would be less negative space (it seems like you didn't want to crop any part of the characters).

What are you cooking?
Happy Holidays everyone~
I missed cooking in my WFO during Thanksgiving.
My mom was sick and I had to leave town. (She's doing great now)
My goose was thawed along with 2 turkeys.
My children cooked one turkey and gave the other turkey and the goose away.
So for Christmas I'm gonna fire up the old WFO on Christmas Eve.
And cook 2 turkeys, a ham, squash, stuffing, and rolls on Xmas day.
So what is everyone else planning to cook for the Holidays?
Re: What are you cooking?
No WFO for our Christmas Eve meal (my sister cooks Christmas day). We follow the Italian tradition of the meal of the 7 fishes. We will start with Angel Hair pasta with white clam sauce, then onto baked stuffed shrimp, fried smelts, fried calimari with hot pepper rings, snail salad, pickled eel, bacala (salt cod) salad. Just because you need a veg we throw in broccoli salad. We will feast on fruits, nuts and chesnuts while waiting for coffee and dessert. Don't know what is for dessert a guest is in charge of that!!!
Seems silly to fire up the "Dragon" for just one dish that can be cooked in an oven.
Happy Christmas to all!!
Re: What are you cooking?
We had 40 neighbors over for a wine and cheese open house and I baked a ton of bread and focaccia. I over-estimated, so our friends all went home with slices of focaccia and bread. The family next door (i vicini) is a nice younger couple -- he's Aussie and she's half German, and she said my sourdough whole wheat with seeds reminded her of the bread she grew up with! She was so happy and they took a boule home for dinner. Very nice.
Unlike much of the rest of the country, it's been nice here with only a little rain, so cooking outside is easy.
Happy holidays and stay warm.
Re: What are you cooking?
Wow! James,
How did you get to know 40 of your nieghbors? Or did you just hand out invitations? I am interested in the details of how you cooked for 40 people.
Merry Christmas to all!
Re: What are you cooking?
Re: What are you cooking?
Have you gotten a larger mixer, or are you using a Kitchenaid for dough?
Re: What are you cooking?
The key was no real cooking. It was a wine and cheese open house, along an Italian theme. We had Parmesan and Pecorino with Balsamico and Honey, Prosciutto, and all Italian wine -- Sangiovese, Chianti, Prosecco and Pinot Grigio.
Our neighborhood has ended up being very social and everyone has everyone else's email address. Plus, we threw a number of pizza parties this summer so we are getting to know everyone. :-) It was fun.
I'm still getting by with my KA600. Everything was a 1kg batch and I just kept going. I did a 1kg Miche, 2 500 gram whole wheat with seeds, 2 Hamelman sourdough with whole wheat, 2 500 ciabatta with poolish, and 4 500 gram focaccia. Building the starter is as tricky as juggling the mixer. I walked around all evening making sure people tried the sourdough.
Really it wasn't that difficult. We threw the glasses in the dishwasher and sat down to watch a Christmas movie.
I'm looking forward to other entertaining stories.
Re: What are you cooking?
We're having our long-standing family tradition of clam chowder, coleslaw and corn cakes for Christmas Eve dinner. If I tried to change it I'd have mutiny. My kids actually bullied my ex into asking me how to make clam chowder one year.
Christmas Day, we're having all my husband's family over, and I just discovered that it's going to be a really tight fit in the wfo for turkey-lurkey. He's a REALLY big one. I'm going to have to do it in the regular oven this time. I did get a smaller one for learning purposes, but it'll have to wait. I can't risk burning it on Christmas. For my in-laws. :eek:
I did make sourdough rolls the other day in it, and froze them. I'll put them in a pan with butter on top and reheat them.
I will get the wfo fired up next week when my parents visit- I'm going to attempt wfo standing rib roast. Anyone got any pointers? I think I'm going to do some squash too. And I want to try out Dave's mushrooms.
Re: What are you cooking?
We are going with pizza tomorrow night...starting a new tradition. There will only be about eight people, so no big deal. Christmas dinner will be a dry aged 6 bone rib roast (prime rib). This is my first attempt at dry ageing beef myself...pretty simple process, just takes up a lot of fridge space for 8 days. I'm undecided on using the WFO for Christmas, I did a rib roast last year with all the fixens as well as the past 2 Thanksgivings in the WFO. I've been told I spend too much time "out there" and not enough time socializing with family, so Christmas dinner will probably be indoors and electric.
Re: What are you cooking?
OK, I'm killing 3 birds with one stone on this post:
1) Dave, glad you are back, it just isn't as fun without you around. Your exploits are missed
2) I've reached another milestone - post number 800. (still don't know how everyone has gotten to 1000 so quickly)
3) Merry Christmas and to be politically correct - HAPPY HOLIDAYS to everyone. I hope everyone enjoys a festive time with family and friends. This forum is great and the people are all top notch...I truely wish the best for everyone.

Eagan: Beloved mayor has earned high place in Boston history - 0 Comments
Most of us know how it feels to be underestimated, told we don't have what it takes to get the job done. No doubt Tom Menino remembers well how most of Boston once underestimated him, too.
Not anymore.
In announcing today he's had enough, "he goes out like Ted Williams, hitting a home run his last time at bat, circling the bases and tipping his hat," said former City Councilor Michael McCormack.

Hauck made it clear that it's not as simple for college coaches to manage their way through the postseason as it might be for NFL coaches, for example, because they're already dealing with time constraints that pull attention away from the field.
"People say the NFL plays that many games, but they don't have to practice like we do to get ready to go," Hauck said. "They don't have class, they don't have finals week. It's taxing."
As opposed to the more laid-back approach to a bowl game, there has to be at least some element of physical, full-contact practice for players to be ready for two of the biggest games they might ever be part of. That can be a difficult balancing act, given that there's no way to replenish an injured roster and attrition is likely to have had an effect by that stage of the season.
"There's got to be a real level of consistency and an understanding that there's almost two seasons," Bohl said. "There's your regular season and the playoff system, so you want to start strong, and you want to finish stronger.
"The teams that are going to be able to master that are the ones that are going to achieve greatness. But until you've experienced [it], it's a different animal."
Maintain perspective and stay level-headed
The buzz for a playoff has been building for years, and now that it's here, it's going to be almost impossible for a program to entirely tune out the hype.
But it's on the coaches to keep a level head on the sideline and send a message that this is just like any other game once it starts.
"I learned from [Nebraska coaching legend] Tom Osborne [that] the bigger the game got, the calmer and more consistent the coaches need to be," Bohl said. "You can say every game is important, and I get that. But there are going to be certain games that, you know what, if you just play well, you're going to win. Then there are going to be other games where you have to bring your very best. When the stakes were highest, he was the calmest. I always tried to take that into account."
From there, it helps to have a veteran team with respected leaders who can pass that message to the rest of the players. If they've been in big-time games before and can draw on that experience, even better.
"We had a lot of tradition and a lot of success there, so our guys were used to winning, and they didn't want to be the team that lost," Johnson said. "It was motivation in itself, and they knew what we were playing for. They had been there, and they understood what was at stake and what it felt like to win the thing."
That's not technically a feeling anybody will be able to draw on during the inaugural College Football Playoff this January. But soon enough, there will be one more expert to add to the panel, one who knows what it takes to win it all.

Dear Klaus, I have two remarks on Knoppix 7.0.4. First, Tomboy Notes doesn't start, although there is DVDROM activity for a few seconds as if some libraries were missing. Second, when I use the cheatcode lang=fr, the icons for maximizing, minimizing, or closing the window disappear in some applications. Any idea about the reason for this?
