Lady Gaga Sports Menswear, Bares Chest in L'Uomo Vogue
Lady Gaga revists her metallic, Terminator-like look from the 'You & I' video (where she met rumored squeeze Taylor Kinney) on the cover of the January 2012 issue of L'Uomo Vogue.
Lady Gaga revists her metallic, Terminator-like look from the 'You & I' video (where she met rumored squeeze Taylor Kinney) on the cover of the January 2012 issue of L'Uomo Vogue.
Lady Gaga has always said that her greatest work of art is her mastery of fame. She sought it out ever since the days when she was toiling away as a performer at hole-in-the-wall clubs on the Lower East Side of her native New York City.
However, someone else would like a little credit for Gaga's success and it's none other than entrepreneur Donald Trump.
Calling Lady Gaga … Literally.
During a chat with 'Nightline' (Nov. 22) while promoting her Christmas workshop, the Mother Monster revealed that even though her beloved and cherished little monsters call her beloved and cherished parents' home phone at all hours of the day and night, her father Joe Germanotta refuses to change the digits.
Time magazine has been around since 1923. It's not exactly the beginning of "Time," but it's almost 100 years, so the publication has clout and has chronicled a large part of modern politics, culture, society and life as we know it. So it's a big deal when the mag christened Lady Gaga's 'Bad Romance' to its list of the 'All-Time 100 Songs.'
Lady Gaga has booked another high profile TV appearance, this time at the 'Grammy Nominations Concert Live!! – Countdown to Music's Biggest Night.' That's a mouthful, and when you break it down into its base parts, the Mother Monster will be performing at the televised ceremony where the Grammy nominations are announced. Given the success of 'Born This Way,' something tells us that Gaga's name will be read off as a nominee in multiple categories.
The 2012 People's Choice Awards have released a lengthy list of contenders for next year's ceremony, with Katy Perry and Lady Gaga predictably leading the way. Each award features 12 possible contenders, and it's up to fans to narrow down the choices to the final five nominees in each category.
Among the luminaries paying homage to former President Bill Clinton at the 10th anniversary of his foundation were Stevie Wonder, Usher, Bono, and — perhaps most notably — Lady Gaga.
Calling it her "Marilyn moment," Mother Monster appeared in wavy blonde hair, scarlet lips and a nude-colored outfit, altering some of her song lyrics in honor of Clinton, such as changing 'Bad Romance' to 'Bill Romance.'
Queen is looking to fill the void left by the late Freddie Mercury, and Lady Gaga is being considered for it. Guitarist Brian May previously reached out to Bad Company leader Paul Rodgers, but now it looks as though the pop diva is at the top of the list.
Singing the Ben E. King hit 'Stand by Me' together is nothing new for Lady Gaga and Sting.
But at last weekend's iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas, they took their onstage collaboration to the next level by also performing a version of The Police's 'King of Pain.'

Okay, technically it's the 2nd day, but this is the first day that media have been reporting on it.
So the big news from the day is that Roddy White and Tony Gonzalez weren't there at these voluntary workouts. Neither was Desmond Trufant, who is finishing school at the University of Washington. But he's apparently putting in the extra work by contacting teammates and coaches via Skype. Levine Toilolo is also finishing up his schoolwork at Stanford.
Linebackers Sean Weatherspoon, Stephen Nicholas, and rookie end Stansly Maponga were held due to their recoveries from off-season surgeries: knee, sports hernia, and ankle, respectively.
The Falcons opened with a starting 5 of LT Sam Baker, LG Justin Blalock, C Peter Konz, RG Garrett Reynolds, and RT Mike Johnson. Lamar Holmes is expected to be in the mix with Johnson at right tackle.
The Falcons cut UDFA Deon Goggins. Goggins played DT at Syracuse, but was being converted to fullback in Atlanta.
That's about it. See, how exciting OTAs are?

With Chip Kelly news at a standstill for the moment, you can add another name to the GM search for the Browns, according to Jay Glazer on Twitter earlier this afternoon: Panthers and Browns have requested permission to interview Vikings asst GM George Paton for GM. He's scheduled to meet w Panthers next week — Jay Glazer (@JayGlazer) January 5, 2013 George Paton (note: just one "t", not two like the general) was promoted to the Assistant GM position with the Minnesota Vikings in February 2012. This is his sixth year in Minnesota and he has had a long relationship with team GM Rick Spielman. The Vikings improved from 3-13 in '11 to 10-6 and a Wild Card berth in '12. Previously, Paton also spent six seasons with the Miami Dolphins as their Director of Player Personnel after beginning his post-playing days with the Chicago Bears organization. Also on the Browns reported list at the moment: former Raiders employee Michael Lombardi, San Francisco's Tom Gamble and Seattle's John Idzik.

Fitch Affirms KeySpan Corp. and Subsidiaries' Ratings; Outlooks Stable Business Wire NEW YORK -- October 11, 2012 Fitch Ratings has affirmed the ratings for KeySpan Corp. (KSE) and subsidiary companies KeySpan Gas East Corp. (KGE) and Brooklyn Union Gas Co. (BUG). In addition, Fitch has affirmed the ratings for New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) (Brooklyn Union Gas Projects). The Rating Outlooks are Stable. KEY RATING DRIVERS: --Low operating risk due to regulated nature of gas distribution subsidiaries; --Stable utility financial metrics; --Balanced regulatory treatment; --Parent and subsidiary rating linkage; --Sufficient liquidity support by ultimate parent company, National Grid plc; --Moderate capital funding and debt refinancing needs. KSE RATING RATIONALE The rating affirmation of KSE is driven by the low operating risk of its regulated operating subsidiaries; an improved debt profile supported by the substantial reduction in stand-alone parent company debt by $700 million to $1 billion in fiscal year end (FYE) March 31, 2011; moderate funding needs; and, sufficient liquidity support by ultimate parent company, National Grid plc (IDR 'BBB' Stable Outlook by Fitch). The Stable Outlook also reflects an agreement having been reached for the renewal of an existing long-term Power Supply Agreement (PSA) with the Long Island Power Authority (LIPA) (IDR 'A'; Stable Outlook) which expires in 2013. On Oct. 2, 2012 the company and LIPA announced that both parties had agreed to modify and extend the existing PSA for the purchase of up to 3,700 MW of generation produced by National Grid-owned generating facilities for a minimum period of 12 years. The agreement will need to be approved in the next several months by the New York State Attorney General, the New York State Office of the State Comptroller and the FERC. The PSA will contain similar terms and pricing, at rates approved by the FERC. Included in the revised plan are options for LIPA to achieve cost reductions through the retiring or repowering of older generation assets which will reduce energy costs and improve environmental performance. The existing Management Services Agreement with LIPA will terminate effective Jan. 1, 2014. At present, Fitch does not expect there to be a material impact on financial metrics. KGE AND BUG RATING RATIONALE The rating affirmations of KGE and BUG are driven by strong utility financial metrics and balanced regulatory treatment in New York. Utility financial metrics are expected to remain in-line with Fitch guidelines for the rating category and risk profile, with Fitch forecasts for EBITDA to Interest to remain above 6 x (times) through FYE March 31, 2014 at both KGE and BUG. FFO to debt is forecast by Fitch to drop from current levels of 35.2% at KGE and 29.4% at BUG by FYE March 31, 2014; however, forecasts levels remain strong relative to Fitch guidelines. Consistent utility cash flow metrics are supported by the inclusion of regulatory risk mitigation mechanisms in utility rate designs including revenue decoupling, weather normalization and full and timely commodity cost recovery with monthly cost of gas adjustments. KGE and BUG are currently operating in the fifth year of five year distribution rate plans, expiring December 2012. With both utilities currently earning near or above the allowed return of 9.8%, Fitch anticipates new rate plans will not be filed with the New York Public Service Commission (PSC) in 2012 and distribution rates will remain frozen until the next rate filing. Earned returns above 10.5% are subject to an earnings sharing mechanism. Fitch views managing costs as a key determinant to maintaining credit quality. PARENT & SUBSIDIARY RATING LINKAGE The KSE, KGE and BUG ratings are driven by the application of Fitch's criteria entitled 'Parent and Subsidiary Rating Linkage', Aug. 8, 2012. All three of the issuers rely on their ultimate parent, National Grid plc, for liquidity support. Fitch considers that this degree of linkage limits the IDRs of all three entities to a maximum uplift to Grid's IDR. In Fitch's view, the standalone credit measures of KGE and BUG warrant a two notch uplift relative to their ultimate parent's IDR. Sufficient Liquidity Support is provided by ultimate parent company National Grid plc. At FYE March 31, 2012, KSE parent company, National Grid USA (NR) had access to approximately $4.13 billion in total borrowing capacity, with no monies drawn. The primary sources of liquidity to National Grid USA include a $3 billion loan agreement with National Grid plc, on which KSE is a named borrower together with National Grid USA; an $850 million syndicated facility that expires in November 2015; and, a $280 million bilateral revolving facility that expires in July 2017. The $3 billion loan agreement with the ultimate parent is backed up by an adequate operational liquidity position at National Grid plc, including cash available, committed syndicated and bilateral revolving facilities with a combined approximate U.S. dollar value of $2.2 billion, in addition to CP and MTN programmes. MODERATE FUNDING NEEDS Capital spending levels are moderate and primarily allocated to general system maintenance in order to sustain system reliability. Debt maturities at the parent level are manageable, with $150 million due in 2013 and $108 million due in 2016. KGE and BUG have no debt maturities until 2016 when a $400 million note comes due at BUG and a $100 million note comes due at KGE. Fitch views access to the debt capital markets as unrestricted for KSE and its operating subsidiaries. POSITIVE RATING TRIGGERS --Parent and subsidiary rating linkage limits positive rating action at this time. NEGATIVE RATING TRIGGERS -- Negative rating developments at National Grid plc that could limit liquidity support to KSE or require KSE to upstream cash above current levels. -- With rates frozen at BUG and KGE a failure to manage costs could weaken financial metrics Fitch has affirmed the following: KSE --IDR at 'A-'; --Senior unsecured debt at 'A-'. KGE --IDR at 'A-'; --Senior unsecured debt at 'A'. BUG --IDR at 'A-' --Senior unsecured debt at 'A' New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) (Brooklyn Union Gas Projects) --Gas facility revenue bonds at 'A' The Rating Outlooks are Stable. Additional information is available at 'www.fitchratings.com'. The ratings above were solicited by, or on behalf of, the issuer, and therefore, Fitch has been compensated for the provision of the ratings. Applicable criteria available and related research: --'Corporate Rating Methodology' (Aug. 8, 2012); --'Rating North American Utilities, Power, Gas and Water Companies' (May 16, 2011); --'Recovery Ratings and Notching Criteria for Utilities' (May 13, 2012); --'Parent and Subsidiary Rating Linkage' (Aug. 8, 2012).

I already have at least 20 SST 49LF020 chips and PLCC sockets so that's not really the problem. By the way, what bios would I flash to it if I did make it?
Any 256Kb sized bios appropriate to your xbox version - examples are EvoX M8+ 1.6 for 1.6 or IND-Bios 5003 for 1.0-1.5. For LBA48, .6 or .67 depending if you want F or F/G drives.

Yes, this is going to be a 29 wire modchip
The cheapmod is a lpc installed homebrew chip and the schematic was available. I'm not familiar with 29 wire modchips and don't know if the schematics are available.
EDIT: Found a diagram but no idea what bios to use. How does a 29-wire modchip work?

Posted 03 September 2009 - 08:31 AM
The 29 wire modchips simply replaces the original Tsop flash on the mobo. As modern modchips use the LPC bus for their connection to the mobo, the 29 wire modchips simply use adress and data lines.
Connecting 29 wires to the mobo correctly is not an easy job. That's why they started to use the LPC bus.
There is an SST flashrom chip that has the LPC interface embedded in the chip. That's the one that is used for a cheapmod.
If you boot from the LPC bus, there is no way anymore to access the on board flash. So, for that reason you need a 29 wire modchip if you bricked your mobo due to a bad tsop flash.
Posted 05 December 2009 - 04:42 AM
I too am looking to make a few modchips.
BTW, the SST49LF020A is an LPC flash. You would probably have better luck using the type of chip in the diagram that idotsfan posted. But from what I gathered, you can only use the homebrew 29 wire modchip on a version 1.0/1.1 xbox.

Whalen carded a 78 on Saturday at the Eagle Creek Golf Club in Crittenden, good enough for a second place finish in the 65-player field in the Grant County Classic.
Karen Bear began singing when she was 12 years old.
"I fell in love with Barbra Streisand..." Bear said. "I would sing for hours to her records."
Bear's love for music and singing led to a degree in voice performance and music education and 20 years as a choral director.
And Bear will soon share her vocal training and choral directing experience with the community as the director of The Licking Valley Singers.

Gear Question
Why do they not have a removeable liner?...
Why do they not have a removeable liner? That is a key feature in any glove I look for. Multi day ski trips need to dry the lining overnight without a dedicated glove dryer. On warm days it is nice to be able to reduce the insulation value. It is also nice to be able to wash the funk out of your gloves once in a while by washing the liner. I am not afraid to spend money for a glove that has high quality contruction and features i.e. all leather technical glove. My gloves need to last through 300 ski days to be a good value.CD in Girdwood
Yule & Bellow
what kind of question is that! you should just look for a glove that fits ur needs instead of complaining...there angus i chilled-----------------------Chill, Cyrus.

Market Impact Continued
August 20, QAD Inc. (NASDAQ: QADI), a global provider of collaborative
enterprise applications for manufacturing and distributing organizations, reported
upbeat financial results for the fiscal 2004 second quarter and six-month period
ended July 31, 2003. The improved financial performance has not come without
astute moves with regard to product functionality enhancements. These moves
"fortune favors the bold" and "patience is a virtue" adages would be applicable
to QAD's endeavor of finally getting far beyond its most trying days. "Patience"
would stand for the reason of QAD staying true (and being finally vindicated)
even during its most difficult times in the last few years (see Figure
2), to what had made it successful in the first place—solving manufacturers'
real-world problems.
This is Part Four of a six-part note.
One detailed the above moves.
Two presented the Company Background.
Three began a discussion of the Market Impact.
Five will cover Challenges and
Six will make User Recommendations.
QAD Strategy for Lean and JIT Manufacturing
MFG/PRO eB2 supports traditional manufacturing (MRP-based)
methods of planning, it also incorporates many enhancements in support of lean
and JIT manufacturing. Traditional manufacturing methods rely on the movement
of materials through functionally-oriented work centers or production lines,
and are designed to maximize efficiencies and lower unit cost by producing products
in large lots. Production is planned, scheduled, and managed to meet a combination
of actual and forecast demand, and thus, production orders stemming from the
MPS and MRP planned orders are "pushed" out to the factory floor and in stock.
External suppliers also work to support planned production, while materials
management often relies on maintaining sufficient inventory, using a make-to-stock
(MTS) rather than make-to-order (MTO) or assemble-to-order (ATO) approach. In
traditional manufacturing, the time and cost of changeover to produce different
products is high, as are the costs of inventory, planning, and expediting.
Lean manufacturing and JIT concepts, by contrast, emphasize reduced inventory throughout the supply chain, shorter lead times, and faster cycle times, all enabling improved response to customer demands. QAD has again bolstered its commitment to lean manufacturing practices with functionality designed to promote rapid response to customer orders based on demand "pull", including kanban, mixed-mode manufacturing, and the flexibility to schedule and manage flow orders for products within product families, with or without using MRP. The idea is for products to arrive exactly when they are needed, in the mix and quantities that are required, while production begins immediately after a customer order is confirmed, without having to run MRP, or create and release a work order.
Materials are consumed from point-of-use locations or raw-in-process (RIP) locations, whereby both internal and external material suppliers receive replenishment signals at point-of-use locations and RIP, and build or supply material when the location needs to be replenished. To that end, enhancements in MFG/PRO eB2 that should promote lean and JIT manufacturing include: Available to Promise (ATP), Distribution Order Entry, EDI Ecommerce, Supplier Consignment Inventory, Enterprise Material Transfer (EMT), Kanban Management Phase II (allows users to track and manage the move of Kanban-controlled items into and out of inventory), Linked Site Costing (allows users to specify default source cot sites for items held at multiple sites but in one database), Purchase Order/Work Order Accounting and Logistics Accounting. These features will have been attractive at least to existing QAD customers, particularly automotive suppliers, who have been pinched by a tightening economy and under pressure to speed up operations and adopt JIT and lean manufacturing practices. Even in the accounting arena, the requirements for the automotive industry are critical with evaluated receipt settlement, self-billing and retro-billing, all speeding up processes while helping suppliers optimize their limited resources.
While QAD uses MRP for mid- and long-term planning, on the execution side, however, it caters to both JIT that is used for build-to-order or final assembly manufacturing, and to lean manufacturing, which is suitable for build-to-demand pull for finished and component items. Namely, most companies will still use MRP to ascertain longer-term dependent demand (i.e., based on forecasts), but replenishment will be based on independent demand (i.e., actual customer orders), with closely managed inventory buffers.
illustrate the differences between these three methods, Mrs. Lopker, who was
recently hailed by the IT press as "the queen of elegant software", during her
keynote presentation at Explore 2003, compared the AMPM Convenience
stores with Wendy's and McDonalds burger chains
modes of operation.
The above burgers' example would be quite applicable to e.g., computer or automobile manufacturers, where QAD really figures. The issue becomes much more complex when the customer would say, "I don't want a beef burger, but rather an ostrich burger" or "I would like a car with a sunroof and painted with the US flag motif" and these peculiar instructions would have to be ordered and propagated down the supply chain. Consequently, more recently, the vendor has focused on its solutions for supply management and visualization. In other words, while still adding to ERP (e.g., lean manufacturing and JIT management modules), the vendor has been fleshing out the components of extended enterprise (e.g., distributed order management, flexible schedules, customer self-service, consignment inventory, vendor managed inventory (VMI) and supplier managed inventory (SMI), replenishment management, and B2B eCommerce) and of manufacturing community (i.e., consolidated visibility via a portal of inventory, production, product lifecycle, payments and invoices).
Execution Becomes Critical
Particularly during these calamitous times, manufacturing and distribution companies continue their effort to meet high customer expectations for on-time delivery by achieving general responsiveness, speed and agility. While core back-office ERP and not any less-cumbersome SCP systems might have traditionally excelled at planning, conceptual optimization and financial integration functions, they have not, however, addressed warehousing, distribution network planning, or transportation/logistics management aspects of replenishment. The execution side is therefore gaining increasing awareness among companies that realize that planning can do only so much without the ability to make the right and timely decisions and execute on the shop floor, in the warehouses and/or within the entire distribution chain.
To be able to react to fluctuating demand, respond to customer specifications, and coordinate real-time event messages from multiple disparate systems, these systems are being further enhanced with decision support capabilities and planning engines aimed at order fulfillment and inventory and order status visibility. Therefore, the most regular and justifiable enhancements have been Web-based order-fulfillment modules, which typically include real-time supply chain event management (SCEM), alert messaging, order tracking, and complicated workflow management. Harnessing this technology should lead to the so-called "self-healing" or adaptive supply chain — when a software engine monitors all the numerous events taking place supply-chain-wide, identifies and escalates exceptions, sends notification, and reacts appropriately to those exceptions, ideally without human intervention.
QAD has jumped on this bandwagon since its focus has also evolved to target collaborative e-Business and event-driven manufacturing. These markets need support for demand events such as a customer order, supply events such as a supply disruption, process events, product events, or others. QAD has thereby created a notable business-to-business (B2B) collaboration vision to appeal to its mid-market user base, but it acknowledges that it will take much more doing for the vendor to capture the entire replenishment order model whereby every link in the supply chain will react to the demand pull, create the needed product and then drive the demand pull all the way down the supply chain.
Nevertheless, QAD has long shifted its focus from being a mere ERP vendor dedicated to the industrial mid-market to fully leveraging the Internet in the applications it provides to manufacturers and distributors to link their back-office systems to those of their business partners via private trading exchanges. To that end, QAD eQ product, might be viable for some focused areas such as direct materials procurement and/or replenishment and sales order fulfillment.
eQ is a PTX (Private Trade Exchanges) suite that contains four applications:
Commerce Foundation Management, Sell-Side, Buy-Side, and Replenishment, providing
the backbone to allow a manufacturer to establish a private trading exchange
among its suppliers and/or customers, with support for XML messaging, Java,
HTML, and no need for a client side of the software. QAD eQ is also devised
to support private Internet exchanges that are connected to multiple sites,
run on diverse ERP systems, and to accommodate a rule-based order management
functionality. Particularly notable is eQ Commerce Foundation Management
framework (formerly Commerce Relationship Management), which
allows users to define the collaborative, many-to-many relationships and accompanying
business rules supporting personalized buying and selling on the Internet among
trading partners along the supply chain.
potential virtue of private trade exchanges is that enterprises should automate
procurement without necessarily opening up sensitive information to unwanted
eyes. Increasing velocity, visibility and accuracy—and subsequent cost savings—is
what makes PTX attractive as a B2B application framework. Moreover, while most
Internet exchange strategies rely heavily on procurement software, QAD eQ acts
as a holistic order management hub by including commerce relationship management
(relationship modeling), sell-side, buy-side, and replenishment applications.
Through this hub, user can make the sales, purchase, and replenishment orders
issued by MFG/PRO, even advance ship notices (ASN), available to the entire
supply chain. The latest version of eQ includes eQ Replenishment,
which lets real-time consumption about material usage drive the flow of material
through production to customer sites. In other words, the actual customer usage,
not the receipt of purchase orders, not min/max economic order quantities (EOQs),
is driving replenishment. Similarly, real downstream demand, not forecasts,
triggers production and procurement processes.
combining eQ (for supply chain management requirements) and MFG/PRO (for traditional
manufacturing ERP requirements), QAD often additionally competes with SAP,
Oracle and PeopleSoft in its sectors of focus,
where it provides the individual factory level ERP solution while these giants
remain the preferences at the corporate level. Additionally, QADs 'collaborative
commerce' eQ system not only works with its flagship MFG/PRO, but also with
others ERP and legacy systems. It also connects with supply chain planning systems
like QAD's partner Adexa, and demand planning systems like
Demantra. Thus, there is the potential to build functionality
on the usual heterogeneous mix of systems one may find in multi-national companies
at this level. Look for QAD continuing to build on its early to market 'collaborative
commerce' suite which might be ever appealing as more upper mid-market manufacturers
seek to improve their external trade partner interactions to realize efficiency,
responsiveness and reduced costs.
QAD also offers MFGx.net, a manufacturing-based network already integrated into QAD, which includes hosted Internet application services such as basic alert-based management. SV lets suppliers see all the information regarding the items they supply to the customer and which have been authorized to see through browser and password only. SV gets this information for inventory, purchase orders, supplier schedules, and receipts from a customer's ERP system using an XML interface called "the poller," which sends the ERP information to the SV web server. Suppliers can also load information for shipping forecasts and ASNs directly into SV, as well as export information from SV to their external systems. Suppliers without EDI can import their shipping forecasts and ASNs into SV using spreadsheet.
Essentially, it is a basic vendor-managed inventory solution that lets suppliers monitor how items are consumed. QAD plans to add a link to its eQ Replenishment application, which will add more complex algorithms allowing suppliers to determine when to replenish stock to its customers. To execute the portal-based applications, the supplier will need a Web browser such as Internet Explorer or Netscape, and the customer must install a small poller on their MFG/PRO server. From MFGx.net, users that are not necessarily the MFG/PRO users can download the software, which updates the system at certain time intervals by replicating data from the QAD MFG/PRO database and uploading it to SV. The result of this, ideally, is streamlined material replenishment up and down the supply chain. QAD SV is the first application made available on a subscription basis through QAD's new MFGx.net manufacturing exchange, and it comes pre-integrated with the most recent versions of MFG/PRO, namely eB and 9.0 releases. QAD MFGx.net is the vertical exchange, which also offers associated education and services, while QAD provides full consulting, implementation, migration and support services.
This concludes Part Four of a six-part note.
One detailed the events.

I don't know what it is, but the Louisville starter for tonight just went from Wood to Willis to TBA.

I don't know what it is, but the Louisville starter for tonight just went from Wood to Willis to TBA.
Something has gone done.
Whatever it is, I'm sure it will not be anything more than chair shuffling. JMO.
Benzinger backing and calling! And the 1990 world championship series belongs to the Cincinnati Reds!
The beast is hungry, any move must satisfy a hungry and assuming crowd.
I'm sure it's something minor like Arroyo might miss one start and Willis might take his place.
I'd be happy with Volquez being sent back to AAA and either Willis or Wood taking his place.
Volquez needs to spend the rest of the year in AAA. Then bring him back to spring training next year and make him fight for his life.
Thank you Walt and Bob for bringing winning baseball back to Cincy

Daily boat tours, waterside views, and complimentary kayak usage make this Kirkland hotel on the shores of Lake Washington a great bet. You'll pay more for the better views and rooms with balconies, but it's probably worth it. Great views can also be had from the upscale restaurant, which serves tasty Pacific Rim fare like Quinault King Salmon topped with crème fraîche and sake-cured salmon caviar. The Beach Cafe is equally good, and more casual.

We stayed at the Woodmark for Memorial Day weekend and had a marvelous time. The hotel is located waterside right on the east shore of Lake Washington with incredible water views and glimpses of the Seattle skyline and Olympic Mountains. We were greeted by a valet and the Woodmafrk's mascot, a Labradoodle pooch fittingly named "Woody". We were unloaded, checked in and ensconced in our lakeview room in less than 10 minutes with complimentary glasses
of Champagne courtesy of the Woodmark. The rooms were nice enough although certainly not luxurious they were roomy with a separate walk in area with a compact fridge, coffee maker and honour bar/snacks. The in room coffee is very nice but there is a Starbucks a 2 minute stroll away. Our view was great but be aware that there is no Ipod player or radio in the rooms so if you want some smooth jazz ambient music bring your own. Also, the beds are nowhere close to the exquisite beds found in comparably priced hotels. The restaurants (both the top drawer Bin on the Lake and the informal Beach Cafe and Living Room Lounge)all serve excellent fare with good service. The lobster mac and cheese at the Bin on the Lake was divine and the wine list with well designed flights was impressive. There is a nice (albeit rather short) promenade along the river and the 2 hr cruise on a restored 1956 Chriscraft is a terrific adventure. Finally, this is a totally pet welcome hotel with no pet surcharge. All in all a thoroughly en joyable weekend getaway destination.

By doing the bidding of their Wall Street contributors, Republicans aren't just hurting consumers. They're actually hurting the companies and values they claim to represent. Real bank profits don't require devious schemes. Real innovation in the financial markets doesn't involve fraud. Stable banks, and a stable middle class, depend on everybody playing by the same rules.
Senate Republicans, meanwhile, continue to play by an older set of rules, one that already sent our economy down the path of crisis and ruination. "Congress has remained a collection of two-cent politicians who could serve well enough in simpler days," TIME magazine wrote in 1942. "But the ignorance and provincialism of Congress renders it incapable of meeting the needs of modern government."
Truer words were never spoken. We need the minority party in the Senate to get with the program. We need a CFPB with the firepower, the funds and the fangs to do its job. Until we get that, honest American consumers and businesspeople will continue to get pulverized.

Picture: Katy Perry - Celebrities leaving 34 Restaurant - London, United Kingdom - Monday 9th December 2013
Katy Perry banned her Republican parents from attending U.S. President Barack Obama's 2013 inauguration to see her sing.
The I Kissed a Girl hitmaker was invited to perform at the Democrat politician's inauguration ceremony in January (13) and her parents were keen to watch their daughter sing, despite voting for Obama's Republican rival Mitt Romney in the election.
However, Perry blocked them from the event, insisting it would be wrong for them to attend the inauguration of a president they opposed.
She tells America's Marie Claire magazine, "My parents are Republicans, and I'm not. They didn't vote for Obama, but when I was asked to sing at the inauguration, they were like, 'We can come.' And I was like, 'No, you can't. I love you so much, but that - on principle.' They understood, but I was like, 'How dare you?' in a way."

Based on Matt Moore's pitching of late, the Tampa Bay Rays could be in good position to continue their home dominance of the Toronto Blue Jays. The left-hander tries to win a third consecutive start while looking to help the Rays complete a three-game sweep with a fifth straight home victory over the Blue Jays on Thursday. Alex Cobb allowed one run over seven innings as Tampa Bay (58-52) secured its 16th straight winning home series over Toronto with a 3-2 victory Wednesday. The Rays are 35-12 against the Blue Jays at Tropicana Field since Toronto last won a series there April 6-8, 2007. "We seem to struggle for some reason playing in this ballpark." losing pitcher Carlos Villanueva said. There's a good chance that success continues with the ball in the hand of Moore (8-7, 3.84 ERA), who has not allowed a run in 17 2-3 innings despite yielding six hits and three walks in 5 1-3 innings of a 2-0 win over Baltimore on Friday. Moore last gave up a run in the second inning of a 2-1 ...

The Buccaneers continue their busy offseason, even though they are not signing cornerbacks. Today they announced the release of two veteran per the NFL transaction logs. Running back DJ Ware and quarterback Dan Orlovsky were released, the Orlovsky one being a bit of a surprise. Head coach Greg Schiano wanted competition for quarterback Josh Freeman but apparently Orlovsky was not what he was looking for. The only other quarterback on the roster is Adam Weber. The Bucs were tied to Matt Cassel and Carson Palmer recently but they obviously went elsewhere. Current available free agents at the position are names like Charlie Batch, Brady Quinn, and Matt Leinart amongst others. It's doubtful the Bucs may go after any on the list. Only thing left to wonder is if the Buccaneers (Schiano to be exact) will be targeting a quarterback in the draft to mold into their own in case Josh Freeman does not go as hoped in 2013. The post Bucs release Dan Orlovsky and DJ Ware appeared first on The Bay Cave.

Abuja/Lagos/Maiduguri — DESPITE global outcry against the activities of Boko Haram, the United States (U.S.) yesterday decried the security threat posed by the insurgents in Nigeria.
Speaking at the opening of the third session regional security working group meeting of Nigeria-U.S. Bi-National Commission, held in Abuja yesterday, U.S. Assistant Secretary for African Affairs, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, said the frequency and scope of terror attacks has grown more acute, adding that this has constituted a serious threat to the overall security of Nigeria.
She said: "Boko Haram has shown that it can operate not only in the North-East, but in Kano, Abuja and elsewhere. We are very troubled by the apparent capture of Bama community and the prospects for an attack on and in Maiduguri, which would impose a tremendous toll on the civilian population. This is a sober reality check for all of us."
Also, French Minister of State to the Minister of Defence for Veterans and Memory (SEDACM), Kader Arif, has re-affirmed that his country was still committed to helping in surmounting the dreaded militant group, Boko Haram, in Nigeria and its neighbours such as Chad, Niger and Cameroun.
A statement from the office of the minister, which was made available to The Guardian yesterday, noted that Arif made the affirmation at the ministerial conference in Abuja following the Paris Summit for Safety in Nigeria.
The statement read: "The presence of Kader Arif in this event which was attended, among others, by representatives of Nigeria, Cameroun, Niger, Chad, the United Kingdom (UK) and the United States (U.S.), underscores the commitment of France to maintain regional dynamics initiated during Paris summit on May 17 in the fight against Boko Haram. Kader Arif said that the position of France is to contribute, with all the partners in this matter, in concrete terms to "the development of a joint response to the threat Boko Haram poses to all the region bordering Lake Chad."
In another development, the founder of the Kingdom of Love Church of Christ, Prophet (Dr.) Felix Oluyemi (JP), has called on Vice President Namadi Sambo to collaborate with all the northern governors and emirs to dialogue with Boko Haram to bring back the abducted Chibok schoolgirls.
The prophet, who disclosed this in Lagos yesterday at a press conference on the state of the nation, said: "It is time for Vice President Sambo to call on the northern governors and emirs to sit together and settle the rift between them and go to the forest to bring back the kidnapped girls before 2015 general elections.
Why are they not talking of unity before 2015? Why should the northern leaders fold their hands?
On the collective efforts to curb the excesses of the insurgents, Thomas-Greenfield said: "Despite our collective efforts, the situation on ground is worsening. The conflict has affected the lives of hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people in the Lake Chad region. Cameroun's military is increasingly forced to fight Boko Haram within its borders and they flee back into Nigeria without fear."
"The Chibok schoolgirls and others remain hostages, enduring horrible and tragic suffering. Abubakar Shekau's bold announcement that Boko Haram is now governing a 'caliphate' only adds to the perception that the security situation is steadily worsening. All of these developments are deeply disturbing and increasingly dangerous with each passing day."
Besides, she said that U.S. would continue to provide technical training to military and police forces involved in the fight against insurgency.
"As an important part of this effort, we are pleased to provide advanced training to a Nigerian infantry battalion. We applaud the motivation of this unit and the progress it is making. It is critical that the investment in this unit be properly maintained and utilized upon deployment with clean supply chains and adequate supplies, a strong chain of command and mission and values that address Nigeria's counterterrorism threat and keep civilians safe. The reputation of Nigeria's military is at stake. But more importantly, Nigeria's and its children's future is in jeopardy. Failure is not an option," she added.
However, the Shehu of Borno and Chairman of the state's Traditional Council of Chiefs (BOTCC), Alhaji Abubakar Umar Ibn-Garbai El-Kanemi, has cautioned members of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) on "strict rules of engagement" in fighting insurgency to restore peace in the state.
The monarch's caution, according to the palace sources in Maiduguri yesterday, came barely 24 hours after the Shehu declared a three-day prayers and fasting among the Muslim and Christian communities in Borno State.
Addressing a news conference at the Maiduguri palace on capture of Bama and Banki communities by the insurgents, Abubakar said that members of CJTF sought support from traditional rulers on how to end Boko Haram insurgency in various towns and villages in Borno Central and Southern Senatorial Districts of the state
His words: "As the vigilante youths sought our support and co-operation to enter Sambisa Forest and other training camps and hideouts of terrorists, they should however, strictly abide by the 'rules of engagement' so that none of them commits any offence against extra-judicial killings in the forest or any attacked town or village in Borno."
While urging the vigilante youths to abide by rules of engagement, he also appealed to them to follow the directives of the military and other security agencies while discharging their duties.
He said with the emergence of the civilian JTF, it has assisted in dislodging the sect out of Maiduguri and its environs, and therefore called on other places to set up their own civilian JTF/youth volunteers to fight terrorism.
Co-ordinator of CJTF, Abba Aji Kalli in an interview yesterday, said they were at the Shehu's palace to seek his "fatherly and religious" blessings and advice, as the group has vowed to go after the Boko Haram insurgents even if they are not well armed, like the military and other security agencies.
He said: "We are optimistic that with our sticks, bows and arrows and other local arms we will raid all terrorists' hide-outs and kill them when given permission by the Federal Government."
He also said that the Civilian JTF are now more motivated with the support and assurance they have received from retired military men, local hunters and other patriotic citizens who have expressed their willingness to join the group to end terrorist activities in the North-East sub-region of the country.
While expressing dismay over President Goodluck Jonathan not supporting CJTF after sacrificing their lives in the fight against insurgency, noted that the group, which is non-political and non-religious, would not be deterred, but would ensure that it works with the military to restore peace in the affected region.
Meanwhile, a senator representing Borno Central Senatorial District at the National Assembly, Ahmed Zannah, yesterday called on the Federal Government to "deploy more troops" and aerial surveillance to the state to reclaim the captured border towns of Bama, Banki, Gambouru, Dikwa and Wulgo by Boko Haram terrorists group.
Speaking during an interview with the Hausa Service of British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) yesterday and monitored in Maiduguri, Senator Zannah said: "I am urgently calling on the Federal Government to deploy more troops to Bama and other captured towns and villages; as failure to heed my calls, could lead to worsening insecurity situations that have claimed the lives of many people, including the unconfirmed number of Bama residents killed in last Monday's attacks and takeover by gunmen."
The military, according to him, should rise to the challenges of protecting people's lives and property, and not to politicise the lives of innocent citizens.
Also, another senator representing Kaduna Central and retired Army General, Senator Saleh Mohammed Sanni, yesterday blamed the Federal Government under Gen. Ibrahim Babangida for weakening the power of the Armed Forces.
Sanni spoke at the meeting between the National Assembly Joint Committee on Defence and Chief of Defence Staff, Air Marshal Alex Badeh, which also had in attendance, other top security officers.
The five-hour meeting, according to the Chairman of the Senate committee, Thompson Sekibo, was to be briefed on the current security situation in the country.
Sanni said that comprehending the security situation would entail referring to former military President's administration, which he alleged, systematically and comprehensively disarmed the military.
He said: "For us to understand why this is happening, we need to go back to the Babangida era. After the 1990 coup, the Federal Government systematically and comprehensively disarmed the military.
"All the tanks, all the artillery guns were disarmed and locked up. All the aircraft were parked in Ilorin and other places. Flying stopped and training stopped to ensure regime security not national security.
"All the good officers of the Nigerian Army were hounded out of the military and there was over-concentration of power at the centre, which was the Army Headquarters."
Sanni said that though his responsibility as a senator was that of over-sighting the activities of the military, his explanation was however pertinent at this time considering that he was an insider and has factual account of how the military was grounded at the time.
He further said: "What I am saying is based on my experience as an insider. Prior to that, General Officers Commanding used to have training and manouvre grants. They had the power and responsibility to train their troops and battalions and to ensure an efficient logistics and service support system.
"All that stopped. Everything was from Army and Air Force Headquarters, including the Naval headquarters. The attendant result was decay.
"Training was no longer going on at the battalion level, soldiers lost their skills and since then, no additional military equipment was purchased for the Nigerian Army.
"Even things as little as machine guns were in short supply, ammunition was in short supply. An individual soldier's professional skill was to be a match-man, to shoot and hit his target but can he do that if he has no ammunition?
"We have a duty to rebuild this Army, to rebuild this Armed Forces and unless we understand these basic facts, we are not going anywhere.
"Also, after some time, the fighting doctrine of the Nigerian Army was changed. We were essentially British brought up. That means we knew how much materials we had, the tasks before us and so on. But along the line during the Obasanjo regime, Gen. Obasanjo brought Americans here and our doctrine approach was changed to warfare.
"I make bold to tell you that up till today, nobody understands that. I know it is a strategic concept of warfare but in Nigeria, we are applying it to the operational and tactical level. It has created a lot of confusion within our Army.
"Apart from that, our involvement in foreign operations and the kind of training we give to our soldiers for operations was a kind of defensive posture. You don't kill until you are killed, you don't attack until you are attacked. That also helped to change the orientation of some of our soldiers.
"Then again, I must mention here that there is fraud within the Ministry of Defence and fraud within the military service systems themselves has contributed a lot to diminishing our fighting capability.
"Further to that again, we have the issue of our combat service support. Because of fraudulent activities, we monetised everything. Our supply services, our medical services are completely inefficient and are unable to support the fighting in the North-East now."
In his response, Badeh, who assured Nigerians that the military was doing everything possible to contain the menace of Boko Haram, appealed to Nigerians not to lose hope in the ability of the military to defend the nation's territorial integrity. He also called on other national powers to support military operations
He said: "Let me just say that Nigerians need not lose hope in the military but continue to support her in a bid to defeat the terrorists.
"Secondly, all other elements of national power should contribute more in support of military operations. Right now, the element of national power we are using is the military.
"Other elements of national power are not being engaged sufficiently. There is also the need for diplomatic lobbying for our foreign partners to provide more assistance in areas of equipment and whatever they can give us."

Originally written on Fox Sports Wisconsin | Last updated 4/25/12
MILWAUKEE Milwaukee Brewers reliever Kameron Loe knew he could always count on hearing his grandfather's voice at his baseball games. From little league through his college days as a pitcher at Cal State-Northridge, Loe's grandfather Howard Pound would always be there, always delivering his typical cheer from within the crowd. "Hubba, hubba!" Pound would yell from the stands. Loe still isn't exactly sure why he said that particular phrase Pound had explained to him that he learned it in the military as a sort of rallying cry but no matter what, Loe could count on hearing his grandfather's voice yelling from the stands, game in and game out. And even as Pound grew older and Loe's baseball career took him from Texas to Japan and finally to Milwaukee each destination thousands of miles away from Pound, who lived in California his grandfather would still yell that same phrase at the television, doing his best to will Loe to a successful outing. As Loe took the mound on Saturda...
