|Welcome to skylight_icons, the graphics journal of accrues and gemstar69.
We're two icon makers with, I would say, very different styles, but very similar interests. Here there will be icons of all fandoms great and small, with focuses on Prison Break, Doctor Who (and the spinoff Torchwood), Supernatural, Life on Mars and Life. Of course there are others, bridging out here and there and the occasional stock icon. It varies, which makes it all the more fun.
This journal isn't friends only/member exclusive, mainly because we believe it's rude to be exclusive like that for things that we're sharing with the internet, especially if we've crossposted. But we encourage membership (by bribing you with cookies) because as members you get immediate notification of icon posts as well as being able to request icons on our weekly request posts (which *are* members only).

Tampa Bay needed an upgrade in the secondary, and they got their upgrade. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers traded away their first-round pick in the 2013 draft to get Darrelle Revis from the New York Jets.
Revis is already getting high praise from his new head coach Greg Schiano. Schiano called Revis the best cornerback he's evaluated in 25 years.
Schiano also had this to say about Revis:
"He's big, physical; a cover guy, he'll tackle you. And he works his rear end off. His passion for preparation is something I love."
Schiano is quite overwhelmed with joy, and rightfully so. His team now has the best cornerback in the entire league.

There was a time when the Cubs actually had a dynasty. You have to go back to a time when cars were considered a novelty, but it did happen.
Then on Oct. 14, 1908, the Cubs, led by manager and first baseman Frank Chance, became the first team to win back-to-back titles, beating Detroit 2-0 in Game 5.
Who could have known it would be their last championship for the next 96 years?
Hostile pairing
The double-play combination of Tinker-to-Evers-to-Chance inspired the famous poem by Franklin Pierce Adams: "These are the saddest of possible words...Tinker to Evers to Chance..."
However, while they worked well together on the field, shortstop Joe Tinker and second baseman Johnny Evers hated each other. According to historian Gabriel Schechter, a researcher at the Baseball Hall of Fame, the pair had a falling out early in their career and didn't talk until they were reunited in the 1930s.
"Their overriding desire to win overcame any personal problems," Schechter said.
The infamous goof
Bill Buckner may be the symbolic goat for the current generation of baseball fans, but Fred Merkle has held the distinction for an eternity. On Sept. 23, 1908, the Cubs and New York Giants were tied 1-1 in the ninth inning. With two outs, the Giants' Al Bridwell hit a single for the apparent winning run. With fans running out onto the field, Merkle, who was on first base, never ran to second.
Evers noticed and asked for the ball so he could get a force of Merkle at second. After much confusion, the umpires eventually ruled Merkle out. Since the game couldn't continue because of the chaos, the game was ruled a tie.
"Merkle's bonehead play," as it became known, took on a life of its own when the Cubs edged the Giants and Pittsburgh by a game to win the pennant.
The Series
The Cubs faced the Tigers and Ty Cobb for the second straight year. Once again, their pitching proved to be the difference.
Holding a 2-1 lead in the series, the Cubs shut out Detroit during the final two games of the series. In Game 4, "Three-Finger" Mordecai Brown prevailed in a 3-0 victory.
Detroit fans gave up hope in Game 5. A crowd of only 6,210 fans showed up despite ideal conditions. They saw Orval Overall dominate in a 2-0 triumph.
Afterward, the Cubs celebrated with their World Series shares of $1,317.57 per player. Chance called his Cubs the greatest team he had ever seen.
What they said then

Marlins acquire left-hander Wade LeBlanc from Padres for catcher John Baker
Nov 22, 2011, 7:02 PM EDT
The Marlins just announced that they have acquired left-hander Wade LeBlanc from the Padres in exchange for catcher John Baker.
The Marlins have 11 players who are eligible for arbitration this winter and John Buck is already locked in as their primary starting catcher, so swapping Baker for LeBlanc makes plenty of sense.
LeBlanc, 27, went 5-6 with a 4.63 ERA and 51/28 K/BB ratio in 79 2/3 innings over 14 starts with the Padres this season. He will almost certainly miss pitching in the cozy confines of PETCO Park, as evidenced by his 2.97 career ERA at home and 6.16 ERA on the road, but he could be a decent fit in the back of Florida's rotation. While they remain in the mix for C.J. Wilson and Mark Buehrle, adding a left-handed starter was a priority for the Marlins this winter.
Baker missed most of the season following Tommy John surgery, but batted .154 (2-for-13) after being activated from the disabled list in September. The 30-year-old backstop is a .271/.356/.401 hitter in the big leagues and has a .782 career OPS against right-handed pitching, so he could make for a nice little tandem with the right-handed hitting Nick Hundley.
- Old Gator - Nov 22, 2011 at 11:15 PM
Nothing for nothing, though if Baker returns to pre-surgical form this is a clean win for the Padres. Yeah, the Feesh are certainly going to make a splash this season at this rate.
- crisisjunky - Nov 23, 2011 at 2:53 PM
lessee, Pujolds, Reyes, Buerle, Cespedes, C.J.,…..
oh but Wade LeBlanc was out there all the time….
- mojosmagic - Nov 23, 2011 at 11:04 AM
Win for Padres, loss for Marlin fans as Skinflint Lauria dumps another salary for a bum.

"Skardu "The Little Tibet"" Skardu by explore_discover
Skardu Travel Guide: 54 reviews and 145 photos
Skardu is the main town of Baltistan along the wide bank of the river Indus. Skardu is the largest district of the Northern Areas. Baltistan is home to some of the highest peaks in the world, the Karakoram Range, Skardu is very popular with Mountaineering Expeditions.
It is equally popular with high altitude trekkers, who treks to Baltoro Glacier, K-2 Base Camp and Concordia. Skardu by road, lies approximately 5 hours away from Gilgit and 10 hours drive from Besham. A daily flight to and from Islamabad is also in operation. The flight is always subject to weather
Skardu is famous for the many trekking and adventure spots around it. There are numerous treks starting from Skardu.
The near by Satpara Lake and Kachura Lake AKA "Shangrila" resort are very famous among the local travelers and is visited by people from all over the country during June & July.
The Deosai Plateau, known as the highest plateau in the world is located at the boundary of the Karakoram and the western Himalayas.
Deosai Plains are a backwoods country at about 30 kilometres from Skardu. It is a beautiful summer pasture with greenery and countless species of Fiona flora. The view of the Karakorum Range from the top of the 4785 meter pass is legendary.
Apart from fairies, this plateau is the habitat of the greatly threatened Himalayan Brown Bear and many other wild animals. Although few people will see a bear, quite a few are said to make their homes in the heart of the plateau. At an average elevation of 3500 metre, Deosai officially is a National Park and protected area for wildlife.
The undulating meadows here have no trees or shrubs and the area is snow covered for most parts of the year.
Spring comes to Deosai late when millions of wild flowers begin to bloom all over the lush green grassland. This is a time when Deosai looks like a fairies land with a landscape full of wild flowers on green rolling hills and crystal clear water streams with snow covered peaks in the background. That is the seasons when most travellers go to the area.

Construction of townhome begins for widowed veteran
July 30, 2013
Reported by: WAVY TV 10
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) - Tuesday, TowneBank joined Habitat for Humanity in kicking off construction of a townhome community for families who have special needs members.

This Upanishad divides all knowledge into two categories. The knowledge that leads to Self Realization is called Para Vidya (Great or Divine Knowledge) and everything else is called Apara Vidya or Knowledge of Material world (wordly knowledge). Shaunaka approaches sage Angiras and asks "Revered Sir, by knowing what everything will be known ?" Angiras replies that Two knowledges should be known, one is Para Vidya and other is Apara Vidya. Knowledge of worldly things is Apara Vidya and that by which Eternal Truth or Akshara is obtained is Para Vidya.

Judicial review proceedings by four involved in Little India riot withdrawn
Published on May 30, 2014 7:43 PM
SINGAPORE - Four men charged in connection with the Dec 8 riot in Little India have withdrawn their applications for two separate judicial review proceedings against the Government, said the Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC) on Friday.
Arun Kaliamurthy, Rajendran Mohan and Ravi Arun Vengatesh had applied for a judicial review proceeding to quash certain conditions imposed on them by the Controller of Immigration pending their criminal trials. Both parties had filed their respective affidavits and written submissions for the case, and it was originally fixed to be heard by a High Court Judge on May 12.
For a judicial review to commence, the parties seeking the review must first get permission from the court. But on May 7, lawyer M Ravi applied on the three men's behalf to withdraw the proceedings with costs amounting to $3,000, to be paid by them to AGC. The application was granted by the High Court.
A week later, on behalf of Mr M Ravi, Mr Anil Balchandani applied to withdraw a separate judicial review proceeding to quash the stern warning administered by the police and the order of removal made by the Controller of Immigration on Rajendran Ranjan. Mr M Ravi was also seeking to reinstate the work permit of his client.

Unreal how bad Detroit's bullpen has been. I bet if Walt called them tonight he could get Cabrera, Fielder, PEDalta, Martinez and Jackson for Broxton and Chapman.
George Anderson (10-20-2013),Norm Chortleton (10-20-2013)
Well, it doesn't happen a lot, but I think the best 2 teams are in the series. Identical records at 97-65. 2 teams that can hit and score.
Jonny Gomes goes to the World Series.
Teach tolerance.
Tom Servo (10-20-2013)
Oh boy
Should be a good series. I went to an interleague game at Fenway between the Cards and BoSox a few years back and it was a classic ballgame. A good matchup between 2 teams with lots of weapons.
Teach tolerance.
2013 Fall Classic - teams with their respective leagues best records, very similarly built. Cards looking for 2004 redemption, Red Sox proving a Phoenix can rise from its ashes, and to once again show the curse is lifted.
I like the matchup. Should be good baseball.

Time to take a look at the draft needs of the AFC East. The Patriots and Jets have specific needs, the Bills could use general depth, and the Dolphins could use an extra ten or twenty draft picks. Aaron also goes over recent draft history, looks at receivers similar to David Terrell, and plays that game that's sweeping the nation, or at least the New York Metropolitan Area: Guaranteed RB Decline Trivia.
11 Apr 2005, 10:53am by Aaron Schatz
I think Mike Reiss of the Metrowest Daily News may have competition for the title of "local NFL writer most deserving of national exposure." While most local beat guys are rehashing the same ideas over and over, Paul Kuharsky of The Tennessean always seems to come up with an angle that isn't really new, just woefully under-covered. Today the issue is college running backs transitioning to the NFL and the difficulty they have with far more complex blitz pickup schemes in the pros.
01 Apr 2005, 11:06pm by Aaron Schatz
Not an April Fools' Joke. Now we'll really see if the Denver line can make anyone into a great running back. In other running back news, Antowain Smith is going to New Orleans to back up Deuce McAllister, and Najeh Davenport re-signed with Green Bay, a good piece of news for them.
30 Mar 2005, 12:45am by Aaron Schatz
Well, Denver wins the award as the team that managed to actually trade a running back despite the current glut of available running backs. We'll get to see if Reuben Droughns is a creation of the Denver line or not. Meanwhile, the Broncos seem to have decided that the best way to upgrade their team is to re-create the 2004 Cleveland Browns defensive line. Which was, let's all admit, hugely successful.

Nick Saban's challenge in Miami is the lead on MMQB this week, although the notes are less about the Dolphins and more about Saban himself. I think the most important thing about Saban in Miami is that he's going to tear the whole thing up and start over, which means that fans should not expect an immediate turnaround. In other news, King compares Matt Jones to Mike Mamula, Ty Law needs a diet, SI.com puts this column on around 37 different pages, and apparently our very own Michael David Smith now works at a coffeehouse in Maui. (Read last item.)

Peter King in Hawaii for the owner's meetings, where not much is going on. But he does have some comments from Tony Dungy about how Indy will finally beat the Patriots this year. ("Don't do anything different" seems to be the answer.) Also, why does nobody want Najeh Davenport, why does everybody want David Pollack, and the Thursday night opening game will likely be Pittsburgh at New England. (Which, um, it turns out is not the case. The opening game is Oakland at New England.)

The home of the Super Bowl champions is the final division to get the Four Downs treatment. Aaron Schatz revisits the Coles-Moss trade from a DVOA perspective, gives his thoughts on the Troy Brown release, and wonders why Miami has six good starting defensive linemen and no good starting offensive linemen. Plus, did Jonas Jennings make Willis McGahee, or vice versa?
07 Mar 2005, 01:12pm by Aaron Schatz
Here are Peter King's thoughts on free agency so far. He's very big on the moves made by the Cowboys, although for someone who just wrote a column about Drew Bledsoe being over the hill, he sure does engage in a lot of Bledsoe hyperbole. ("The last time he played for Parcells he was the kind of bombs-away, productive player who put up enough numbers to merit a trip to Honolulu." Peter, that was nine years ago.) I can't argue with him about the other Dallas moves though.
06 Mar 2005, 10:36pm by Aaron Schatz
Um, if you were a long-suffering franchise trying to build with youth, would you sign an over-the-hill veteran quarterback to a one-year contract to be your starter? Unless Arizona is going to draft a quarterback to learn under Warner, this seems like a colossal running-in-place move. At least the offensive line there does an okay job of pass protection.

SV, Go Man Go. I said it before & I'll say it again you're a huge inspiration to all us wanabe adventures. I think one of the main reasons a lot of us fail to follow through on our adventure plans are all the logistics involved in caring out the plan and the thought of the unknown along the way. By you spelling out your thought pattern in trying to figure out how to get you bike to Vladivostok and the GPS thing you're laying out a road map for others to follow. Ya it's difficult and ya it's scary and ya it probably won't go as planned but that's why it's called an adventure. I remember planning my first big adventure south of the border a couple years ago and all the chills I got up the back of my neck and the gut wrenching feelings I had when thinking about crossing the border solo, finding places to sleep and what would I do if I had bike troubles. So many times during my month of planning I felt like saying F it and just going back to my routine of going to work than home. Then I stumbled on your site describing your adventure through Belize, that changed my plans from a two weeker to Mazatlan to a five weeker to Belize (I'm formally belizebiker) Man that changed my life! Thanks again SV, your doing more good then you will ever know.
The chills and gut wrenching feelings are still with me when planning my cruises but I've learned to embrace the feelings as part of being more alive.

That state's governor Nikki Haley's idea to move the rebel flag from capitol grounds in Columbia into a museum is reasonable and serves to elevate discussion of racial strife that continues to bedevil Americans.
The youth baseball season ended Saturday much as it began, with volunteers working feverishly to prepare the fields for the annual Baseball Bash following heavy rains Friday night. Their work paid off and youth baseball teams enjoyed a full day of activities at Ray Jewell Memorial Park.
With Independence Day right upon us, I'd like to share quotes from some of the founding fathers. People who had a vision for this country. Great men of faith, who weren't afraid to express their belief in Jesus Christ.
A few years back I was driving down a windy, two lane road with only a double yellow line separating the opposing lines of traffic. I don't usually dawdle as I drive so I was surprised when this car flew past me like I was standing still. I remember saying to my daughter, "She'd had better be careful, this is a dangerous road."

|Seller's Description
MODEL 1903 The first semi-automatic rifle produced by Winchester was designed by T. C. Johnson. You may remember he designed the Model 12 and finished that odd duck the model 1911 shotgun after JM Browning left Winchester for Europe. This is one of only 126000 produced between 1903 and 1932. Usually the ammo for this model is not produced consistently however I see it at times on Auction Arms or the many other firearm auctions. This rifle was offered in a take-down version only and was available in a 20" round barrel chambered for the .22 Winchester Automatic Rimfire. This ammunition is produced on an irregular basis by a few specialty manufacturers and tends to be expensive. The tubular magazine is located in the butt-stock and holds 1O cartridges. The rifle was available in two different configurations: 1) Standard Rifle, 20" round barrel, plain walnut straight-grip stock. Steel crescent butt was standard. 2) Deluxe Rifle, 20" round barrel, fancy checkered walnut pistol-grip stock with checkered forearm. This rifle serial numbers place it's manufacture approximately 1911-1912.

NEW ORLEANS - JANUARY 24: Percy Harvin #12 of the Minnesota Vikings returns a punt against the New Orleans Saints during the NFC Championship Game at the Louisiana Superdome on January 24, 2010 in New Orleans, Louisiana. The Saints won 31-28 in overtime. (Photo by Jed Jacobsohn/Getty Images)
Minnesota wide receiver Percy Harvin was sidelined Sunday for a third straight game because of a sprained left ankle. Harvin was inactive for the Vikings' game at Green Bay. The Vikings said Saturday that Harvin would not accompany the team on the road, but the injury report confirmed his absence. He was listed as doubtful earlier in the week. At the time he was hurt on Nov. 4 against Seattle, Harvin was the NFL leader in total yards, which includes rushing, receiving and kick returns. He has 62 receptions for 677 yards and three touchdowns this season.

text: Home > Syndication > Yourhealth > Women's wellness Updated 11 May 2015 Look after yourself in a crisis A crisis can strike at any time and it can hit anyone. Here's how to look after yourself. 0 Even if your friends' lives look perfect, they're not. A crisis can strike at any time –and it can hit anyone. Even you.The way your body tells you that it needs a rest from stress and tension, is to get ill.It could be retrenchment, serious illness or death in the family, losing your house, having major financial problems, serious relationship problems, divorce or a crisis with the children. Sooner or later, all people have to deal with these things.And what's more, have you noticed that the week you hear you're being retrenched, is also when you get food poisoning or your cat breaks its leg?But there are things you can do to make sure that you don't get sick on top of everything else. Generally, when you are in crisis mode, looking after yourself is often not a priority. But, if you do the following things, you should be all right:Get to a doctorGo and see your GP and get some vitamin supplements and something to calm you down and let you sleep, if you need it. One does not earn any extra points for needless suffering. Sleeping tablets and tranquillisers often only need to be taken for a few days to help you over the worst.See a counsellorMake that appointment – these people are there to help, not to judge you or make you feel like you're being placed under scrutiny. There are professionals who specialise in grief therapy, relationship counselling, parenting, financial counselling – in short, whatever it is that you need. Why go through this all by yourself when there is help available? Remember, strong people go for help. If you can't afford paying a counsellor, phone LifeLine for free telephone counselling. Their number is 0861 322 322.Get sleepYou are so tired, but you are lying there tossing and turning. "Why did she say that?" "How am I going to pay for that?" "What will I do without her?" You need to replenish your strength and you are not going to be able to do that if you lie awake all night. Lying awake worrying is not doing anyone a favour, least of all yourself. If you are unable to fall asleep, or constantly wake up during the night, or if you wake up really early in the morning, you might need some medication to help you sleep for a short while. Remember, this is merely a short-term solution.Eat properlyThe majority of people stop eating properly during a crisis. They function on adrenaline, which does have a tendency to suppress the appetite. This is fine for a day or two, but remember that the body does need its replenishment on the long run.Eat fresh fruit and vegetables (Try for five portions a day), have some protein and carbohydrates and remember to drink lots of water. This will help your immune system fight diseases that may be doing the rounds. Many people smoke or drink more than usual during times of crisis, and this places extra stress on the body. A vitamin supplement also can't hurt during this trying time in your life.Get exerciseEven going for a walk will get your circulation going and reduce your stress levels. Exercise is often the last thing on your list of priorities when you're dealing with difficult situations, but it will do you the world of good.Exercise also stimulates the release of the feel-good hormones, which could do wonders for your state of mind. A visit to the gym or the squash court may just leave you feeling energised and better able to cope with whatever crisis there is in your life.Take time out for yourselfYou need time to replenish yourself and cannot be there for others on a constant basis. Unplug the phone, have a bath and have an early night. If you get burnt out, you will be useless to others and become an added burden in the crisis situation, rather than contributing to a solution.It is important that you lean on your support systems during difficult times. Phone people, see friends, confide in those you trust. Without friends we don't get through difficult times easily.Don't feel bad if you avoid those people who add to your stress rather than relieving it during this time. While you're trying to organise a funeral or deal with a crisis at work, your best friend's tiff with her boyfriend will simply have to wait. Friends will understand.Also remember that each person has a responsibility to look after themselves in a difficult time. You can be there for people, but you cannot take responsibility for their problems. Your responsibility lies with yourself.- (Susan Erasmus) More in Syndication Menopause: causing grievious bodily harm More: YourhealthWomen's wellness advertisement Get a quote Fedhealth - What cover is right for you?

I got as far as putting the one star at the top here and then came to a sticky, blank-screened halt. Where to start? How to get into a review of a place that left me, for once, as speechless as if my tongue had fused to the top of my mouth? Something that my starter, the remarkable 'pan-fried foie gras, rhubarb tarte tatin with mizuna and dandelion salad', threatened to do for real.

Lord preserve us from cutesy, in-yer-face restaurant names - all they serve to do is make me choke on the temptation to add to the bad pun fun. So is it aptly named? Oh yes.

Yields remain compressed, making it difficult for investors to obtain high quality income without moving beyond their risk tolerance. The fund seeks higher income potential than traditional cash investments, with less volatility than typical short-term bond strategies.
An actively managed enhanced cash strategy that seeks to dynamically manage risk and liquidity, the fund invests in both high quality money market instruments and a wide range of non-money-market securities such as U.S. Treasury and Agency securities, investment grade credit and high quality structured credit.
The fund's conservative investment guidelines prohibit investing in high yield securities and limits exposure to other fixed income sectors, which may increase volatility in periods of financial stress. In an effort to minimize total portfolio volatility, the fund's mandate allows for limited use of derivatives.
PIMCO has been managing short-term strategies since 1986 and the fund represents part of a suite of solutions that can meet a broad range of investor needs. We work with a variety of investors – including individuals, corporations, pension plans, foundations and universities – to create liquidity portfolios that best align with their investment objectives.
The portfolio manager for PIMCO Short Asset Investment Fund is Jerome Schneider, a managing director who started his investment career in 1996. Mr. Schneider is responsible for supervising all of the firm's short-term investment strategies.
Mr. Schneider is a managing director in the Newport Beach office and head of the short-term and funding desk. Prior to joining PIMCO in 2008, Mr. Schneider was a senior managing director with Bear Stearns. There he most recently specialized in credit and mortgage-related funding transactions and helped develop one of the first "repo" conduit financing companies. Additionally, during his tenure at Bear Stearns he held various positions on the municipal and fixed income derivatives trading desks. He has 18 years of investment experience and holds an undergraduate degree in economics and international relations from the University of Pennsylvania and an MBA from the Stern School of Business at New York University.

The monarch butterfly, one of the most seemingly delicate of all of nature's animals, proves to be one of the toughest in this reader. Making the yearly trip from the Northern United States and Canada to the Oyamel forest of Mexico is no easy task, and it takes five generations of butterflies in order to do so. Battling cold temperatures and the threat of starvation, these beautiful insects complete an almost 3,000 mile journey over the course of two months, only to have to turn and around and head back home. object width="480" height="303"param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/VO3XgqsPqzs?version=3andamp;hl=en_GBandamp;rel=0"/paramparam name="allowFullScreen" value="true"/paramparam name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"/paramembed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/VO3XgqsPqzs?version=3andamp;hl=en_GBandamp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="303" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"/embed/object

Originally written on Fox Sports Midwest | Last updated 3/11/13
JUPITER, Fla. If Trevor Rosenthal has any lingering disappointment from not being picked as the fifth starter, he's doing a darn good job of hiding it so far. Making his first relief appearance since being told he would open the season in the bullpen and not in the starting rotation like he had hoped, the 22-year-old flame thrower reached 100 MPH on four different pitches Sunday and struck out the side. It was just one appearance but Rosenthal looked every bit like the overpowering reliever that was nearly unhittable in the playoffs last year and the reason why the Cardinals decided to start his 2013 season back in the bullpen. "He came in her wanting to compete for a job and when it didn't happen, I'm sure it was a little bit of a hit to him," said manager Mike Matheny. "But he's saying the right things and instantly got back out on the mound and proved it. "He's an absolute weapon to be used out of the pen. I was happy to see him jump right back in there. He's another guy wh...

Honey on average it takes 6-12 months to get pregnant. it's not that easy. you've just started. Should you go over a year without luck, then you can start thinking about talking to a doc. Even if you time everything perfectly you still only have a 20% chance of getting pregnant any given cycle. It's not THAT easy... Also, cycles are different every month and you may have a heavier or lighter period and it may come sooner or later than usual. it's perfectly normal. But you could do ovulation kits to determine your fertile timeposted 06/17/2013 by a BabyCenter Member

a Success on the Lines
Subway service was suspended from 10 PM each night until 5 AM the next morning, as an army of workers was deployed along the 8.7 mile-long segment of the subway linking Midtown, Harlem, Washington Heights, Inwood, and the Bronx. service was suspended between 59 St-Columbus Circle and 207 St, and
Joseph Leader, Senior Vice President for the Department of Subways, said, "Our FASTRACK efforts have been highly successful in repairing and maintaining a subway system that operates around the clock, providing a better work environment for employees and improving train service reliability for our customers."
Highlights of the work completed during the Lines FASTRACK:
|Track -Scraped and cleaned 39,618 feet of track and installed 1,511 track tie plates and 51 tie blocks. Removed 100,950 pounds of scrap debris in 5,747 bags.
|Third Rail Operations - Cleaned 14,130 feet of track under and around the third rail and corrected 154 defects.
|Infrastructure – Repaired 109 leaks. Repaired or replaced 300 feet of handrails. Replaced 785 tunnel light bulbs. Completed 40 feet of bench wall repairs. Cleaned 100 feet of drains.
|Station Environment - Replaced 716 light bulbs and washed 400 fixtures. Scraped and cleaned 16,325 square feet of paintable station surface. Primed 7,330 square feet and painted 12,880 square feet. Repaired 940 feet of rubbing board, the fiberglass extension attached to the platform edge.
|Signals – Serviced 14 switches, 21 signals, and other signal equipment. Tested 4 signals and 8 switches, as well as other components. Performed routine rail/switch maintenance at 14 locations.
|Electronic Maintenance – Performed maintenance on 39 CCTV cameras and 49 CCTV monitors.
The FASTRACK program, which began in 2012, shuts down segments of a subway line for several hours over consecutive weeknights or weekend days, allowing employees to perform a number of critical repair, cleaning, and maintenance jobs. This approach has proven successful in that, under normal conditions in our 24/7 system, the scope and amount of important work completed would be impossible to accomplish with customers and trains moving through work areas. Tasks completed during FASTRACK have had a positive impact on train service with a reduction in train delays and a decrease in the number of track fires, while realizing cost efficiencies and a lower accident rate for employees.
Our next FASTRACK overnight closure will take place August 11 – 15 on the Eighth Avenue Line between 59 St-Columbus Circle and Jay St-MetroTech.

QB Tom Brady It's tough to ever advise benching Brady in a fantasy league, but owners who have a top-rate backup with a better matchup could at least consider the possibility. The 49ers are tough against the pass, and this game doesn't figure to be a points bonanza. Brady is probably still good for 280 and 2 scores, but that is not an automatic start for most teams who are still playing meaningful games. WRs Wes Welker, Brandon Lloyd Lloyd was the team's top receiver last week, and with Welker dropping everything in sight, I wouldn't bet against him being among their top two pass-catchers again this week. I'd expect him to haul in 5 passes for around 70 yards, and he's at least a 50-50 bet to score. Welker should see more than his fair share of targets, so I think his statline will be pretty similar to the projection for Lloyd. RBs Stevan Ridley, Shane Vereen, Danny Woodhead While I have been Ridley's biggest backer since the preseason (I projected that he'd have...

"The Democratic Party is lashed to health reform—even in the face of polls showing tepid public support." Thus Politico's Carrie Brown paraphrases senior Democratic aides. As unappealing as that predicament may sound, Brown writes that those same aides say "it would be politically disastrous to flip-flop now."Not so. What would be politically disastrous for Democratic congressmen is to keep turning a deaf ear to the American people and to forge ahead with a highly unpopular bill. Among the mantras that might help Democrats emerge victorious in November, this one isn't likely to top the list: The people don't want it, so we'd better give it to them.President Obama has echoed this line of thought. In a speech to House Democrats on January 14, he said,[I know] some of you have gotten beaten up at home. . . . But I also know what happens once we get this . . . bill into law: The American people will suddenly learn that this bill does things they like and doesn't do things people have been trying to say it does.So we're to believe that after months of extended debate and discussion, the American people would "suddenly" learn that this bill—which wouldn't go into effect in any meaningful way until 2014—is really not so bad. At least the president doesn't pitch such fanciful comments directly to the American people.All wishful thinking aside, Americans know that the bill would raise spending, taxes, deficits, premiums, and overall health costs; would cut Medicare and cost jobs; and would inject the federal government into the historically and rightfully private relationship between patient and doctor. None of this would change simply because President Obama puts his signature on the bill.In truth, the president and his aides are happy to sacrifice a few dozen congressional Democrats on the altar of Obamacare. They are focused on three immediate goals: passing a very unpopular bill before its window of opportunity closes, increasing the federal government's power over our society, and giving President Obama something to talk about in his State of the Union address.But individual House Democrats care a great deal about their own fate. And it's not too late for them. Evidence from 1994 suggests that Democrats who opposed Hillarycare were largely spared by the voters. It was those who supported it who felt the voters' wrath.In Hillarycare's wake in 1994, the more conservative Democrats did far better than run-of-the-mill Democrats—even though the opposite is normally true (see our "Real Lessons of 1994," in the December 21, 2009, WEEKLY STANDARD). This time around, nothing will mark a Democratic member as one who should be spared more than his final vote on Obamacare. Contrary to the not-so-helpful advice of senior Democratic aides, many members could save their own seats with just one vote.So, allow us to introduce nine House Democrats who desperately need to cast that crucial "no" on Obamacare to save their congressional careers. All of these members voted "yes" on Obamacare the first time around. Their final vote will be where the rubber hits the road.Tom Perriello (Va.) represents a district that Republican presidential candidates have won in three straight elections—twice by double-digits. The same is true for John Salazar (Colo.), Chris Carney (Pa.), Brad Ellsworth (Ind.), Zack Space (Ohio), and Alan Mollohan (W.Va.). These are not districts that want Obamacare.In addition, Perriello, Salazar, Carney, Space, and Mollohan represent districts with high numbers of seniors. Polls show that America's seniors particularly dislike the proposed bill, perhaps because they don't relish having $800 billion siphoned out of Medicare and spent on Obamacare—which is what the Congressional Budget Office says would happen in the bill's real first decade (2014 to 2023).Baron Hill (Ind.) represents a district that has gone Republican by an average of 11 percentage points in the last three presidential elections. He is also one of four official leaders of the Blue Dogs, a self-described "fiscally conservative" group of Democrats. In addition to its effect on his own prospects, his vote on Obamacare will go a long way toward showing whether Blue Dogs believe in fiscal conservatism in reality, or only in press releases.Kathleen Dahlkemper (Pa.) represents another district that Republicans have swept in the past three presidential elections. In addition, 39 percent of her district's seniors are enrolled in Medicare Advantage. In its real first decade, according to CBO projections, Obamacare would cut Medicare Advantage benefits by an average of $21,000 per person.
Voters punished Democrats for Hillarycare. They'll do the same for Obamacare.

My FX 5800U initial impressions
Now that I have my Gainward FX 5800 Ultra up and running, I thought I'd give some of my initial thoughts on this card. I bought the FX because it's an anomaly and something that not everyone will have the opportunity to own.
Having gone from an R300-based card to this, I think I can make some good comparisons.
Let's start with 2D/Desktop quality. The FX is brighter than any NVIDIA card I've previously owned (TNT, GF2 MX, GF2 Ultra, GF3, GF4 Ti4600). As a matter of fact, I had to turn down the brightness of my monitor. That, plus a small bump of the digital vibrance slider has my desktop looking better than it did with my Radeon. 2D clarity for text is about the same from both cards.
3D image quality - using the 43.51 drivers, the control panel defaults to Quality. I tested games using all three methods and anything other than the Quality setting looks like a$$, plain and simple. Textures on performance and balanced look horrid. But using Quality, IQ is quite good. 4xAA and 8xAF on the FX in Quake 3 with Trilinear filtering looks about the same as 4xAA and 8x quality AF on the Radeon. Same deal with UT2003. Image quality is excellent on both cards, and differences are imperceptible to me.
3D performance - The 128-bit bus of the NV30 is a handicap when compared to my Radeon. In the course of playing UT2003 on my Radeon, my framerates were higher overall, using 1280x1024 w/4xAA and 8x performance aniso. On a side note, though, S3TC/OpenGL in the original Unreal Tournament works on the FX, unlike on the Radeon. The Radeon would give me flashing textures and other anomalies that the FX does not exhibit. It did work fine in Direct3D, though. But with OpenGL on the FX, I'm averaging a steady 100 fps at 1280x1024 with 4xAA and 8x aniso so that makes me happy.
Loudness - this is a bit of a sore spot. In 2D work, I don't even notice the fan. But for games, this sucker is
. And it's not a loudness I would call pleasant either. I can tolerate it, but I'm not exactly what you'd call happy with it.
IMO, the FX isn't a
card. It's just not an R300-beater/killer by any stretch. Good choice for the loyal NVIDIA fan, not so good for everyone else. If you want to spend the money on it, feel free. But there are better choices out there. I'm not going to get rid of my FX, though. I think it's kind of campy - something that not everyone will be able to have.

How can I validate form data before it gets saved?

Oil falls on report showing rise in US supplies
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) - Oil prices fell Wednesday in Asia after a report showed U.S. crude supplies swelled last week, indicating demand for fuel may be weakening.
Benchmark crude for September delivery was down 46 cents at $75.31 a barrel at late afternoon Kuala Lumpur time in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract rose 53 cents to settle at $75.77 on Tuesday, rebounding from five straight days of losses.
The gains ran out of steam after the American Petroleum Institute said late Tuesday that crude inventories rose sharply by 5.87 million barrels last week, against market expectations for a drop in supplies.
Inventories of gasoline and distillates also rose, the API said.
The Energy Department's Energy Information Administration reports its weekly supply data later Wednesday.
Cameron Hanover said in a report that the API data was unexpected and surprising.
"The API numbers were bearish, showing inventory builds in both refined products and in crude oil stocks, and showing weaker demand," it said. "The big question for Wednesday is whether the DOE report will in any way mirror the API numbers."
In other Nymex trading in September contracts, heating oil fell 1.2 cents to $2.014 a gallon and gasoline fell 2.2 cents to $1.931. Natural gas eased 0.2 cent to $4.265 per 1,000 cubic feet.
Brent crude was down 51 cents at $76.42 a barrel on the ICE futures exchange.
