The house was about 80 % full. The show opened with a promo about the Ultimate Warrior going into the Hall of Fame and a tribute to Mae Young. Justin Roberts announced Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer was in attendance and in the front row. Meyer got more cheers than some of the wrestlers. A pre-taped promo of Randy Orton talking about his match with John Cena played.
1. The Prime Time Players beat Ryback and Curtis Axel. Titus O'Neil greeted Meyer in the front row before the match (Meyer coached Titus in his Florida college football days). Prime Time Players won when Young pinned Axel after a sit out power bomb. Ryback got a lot of cheers despite being a heel, and was pretty over as a babyface. Also some Goldberg and "feed me more" chants. Ok match ending with Titus pinning Axel with Clash of the Titus.
2. Alicia Fox beat Aksana. Before the match they did a fans vote whether this should be a wrestling match or dance off. The match won - 51%. The crowd wasn't all that into it because they weren't too familiar with Aksana. Fox won with a Northern Lights suplex.
3. Xavier Woods beat Brodus Clay in about 3 minutes. Surprisingly quick match with Woods winning with a rollup after he pulled Clay off the top rope. Brodus had new music.
4. Cody Rhodes & Goldust beat The Real Americans when Cody pinned Swagger with Cross Rhodes. Zeb did the heel promo in a wheelchair before the match ripping the Buckeyes. Someone in my section shouted "We love you Dutch". Terrific match with lots of near falls and great action by all 4. Cesaro did a 12 rep swing on Goldie. Cody hit a moonsault on Jack, Dustin surprised everyone with a Frankensteiner. Swagger kept calling Goldust "Oldust." Rhodes brothers won when Cody pinned Swagger after CrossRhodes.
5. Brad Maddox came out to bring out Kane who was to face Big Show (who was moved to the Punk team shows to replace Daniel Bryan), but said that Big Show had travel issues. He continued by saying as GM he is the most powerful member of RAW's management team (insinuating Kane is #2), and he informed Kane that he has replacement opponents and was now facing Luke Harper and Erik Rowan. NOBODY cared about 3 heels wrestling each other and the match was horrible. Harper and Rowan won with the lariat by Harper.
6. Alberto Del Rio beat Sin Cara by cross armbreaker submission. Good match. Good pace and mostly all action. ADR tried to unmask Cara when they were on the turnbuckles and I think he overdid it as the mask came completely off and Del Rio quickly put it back on Cara's head. Whoops.
7. John Cena beat Randy Orton by low blow dq in a WWE World Title match. Great match. They've worked w/ each other so often the chemistry between them is awesome. Say what you may about Orton, but his aura and presence is so great live. And he can make a match just by his facial expressions alone. He makes you think he really is nuts. The fans were about 90% pro Cena with lots of kids in attendance. Orton got lots of heel heat. Each guy kicked out of each others finishers and after the match Orton made sure to tell Justin Roberts to announce he's still the WWE World Champ and then Orton went for a punt that Cena moved from and sent the crowd home happy by giving Orton an AA.

OMAHA – Smaller, more frequent eating patterns will be a big trend in 2013, said Phil Lempert, also known as the Supermarket Guru.
Lempert said smaller bites and more frequent eating patterns will be a trend to help reduce overall portion size and increase variety. Restaurants will add more small plates and appetizers to the menu, and food companies will offer snacks with pre-portioned options, he noted.
Other trends to affect the food industry in 2013 will include the role of men in the supermarket and kitchen. Lempert said supermarkets will increase their focus on men as they have become more active in shopping, meal planning and cooking. Some supermarkets are even experimenting with "man aisles" of male-oriented foods and products.
Frozen food also will be big in 2013 as fewer meals are being made from scratch and there is an increased emphasis on nutrition in frozen foods.
Food companies are going to be catering toward millennial consumers with affordable foods that are flavorful and ethnically diverse as this group will represent 19 percent of the population by 2020.
Smart phones and technology are having a role in the food industry with programs to network with kitchen appliances and allow consumers to check how much food they have left in the refrigerator and turn on the oven from another room. Other possibilities include applications to check to see if foods have been kept at the correct temperature.
Breakfast will continue as the most important meal of the day, although there is debate on what foods are best to eat for breakfast.
Consumers remain interested in where their food comes from and what it contains, so supermarkets will take a larger role in requiring proof and transparency in claims, Lempert said. Supermarket dieticians will have a major role in consumer education.
Due to the rising costs of beef and chicken, there will be a shift to other proteins, including eggs, nut butters, tofu and beans.
Consumers are becoming more concerned with wasted food and likely will check expiration dates, opt for portion-controlled freshly frozen foods and recipes to use leftover food.
Baby boomers also will make purchasing decisions based on concerns about diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease.

Close your eyes, breathe in deeply, now exhale slowly… That was easy, wasn't it? Not for everyone…
Google will have to pay 7 percent on revenue from Israeli Internet content that is copyrighted if the Knesset approves a bill submitted by Labor Knesset Member Erel Margalit and now under discussion in the Knesset Finance Committee.
The proposed legislation calls for the royalties to be deposited in an account managed by the Finance Ministry, which then would transfer the money to those who produced the content.
Conditions for copyrighted material are that a website be active for more than one year and that at least 30 percent of the content is produced by the website itself.
MK Margalit explained that the bill is designed to protect content producers whose websites often are not used by Internet surfers, who can simply use results from the Google search site, Globes reported.
Margalit warned, "Israeli democracy is in danger…. Google has become a search engine technology tycoon in the State of Israel. Technology is an important means to bridge gaps and the Israeli economy needs new thinking about the connection between high-tech and technology and the country's economy and growth."

Cruise hell: 'sewage running down walls and savages fighting over dwindling food supplies'
Passengers on board the Carnival Triumph using mobile phones to convey tales of carpets soaked in urine and passengers sleeping in tents on deck
John Hall
John Hall is Senior Online Reporter at The Independent. He also writes a column on new music for the newspaper.
Wednesday 13 February 2013
Conditions on board a cruise ship stranded in the Gulf of Mexico have deteriorated dramatically, reportedly leaving passengers fighting over food and the vessel caked in urine and raw sewage.
Passengers on board the US cruise ship Carnival Triumph, which has been stranded since Sunday after an engine fire, are using mobile phones to convey tales of carpets soaked in urine and passengers sleeping in tents on deck.
Food supplies are said to be running low, with passengers forced to queue for hours for cold onion and cucumber sandwiches, and there are also reports of fights breaking out as groups of "savages" fight over the dwindling supplies.
Speaking to CNN, passenger Ann Barlow said: "It's disgusting. It's the worst thing ever", while her husband Toby told the news channel there is "sewage running down the walls and floors", with passengers asked to defecate in plastic bags and urinate in showers due to their being only five working toilets between 4,200 people.
It is believed there is also no electricity or air conditioning on board.
The first tug boats reached the stranded vessel yesterday and began slowly dragging it towards Alabama. The huge ship is expected to dock tomorrow afternoon.
Brett Nutt, whose wife is on board the ship told CNN: "The odour is so bad, people are getting sick and they're throwing up everywhere."
Mr Nutt is said to have added: "People are fighting over food and stuff - that's a bunch of savages."
Passenger Debra Rightmire reportedly texted ABC News saying: "Conditions are getting worse by the hour. Cabin carpets are wet with urine and water. Toilets are overflowing in the cabins, we are having to sleep in the hallways. Onion and cucumber sandwiches last night."
Carnival Triumph is said to be listing at a "not normal" 4.5 degrees at the moment, making it uncomfortable for passengers to walk around.
Carnival CEO Gerry Cahill told reporters on Tuesday evening that the cruise line is using its full resources to assist passengers and family members in a "very challenging" situation.
"No one here at Carnival is happy about conditions on board the ship," Cahill said. "We are very sorry about what is taking place."
CNN reported that the fire is the second to occur on board the ship since late January, when it had a problem with its propulsion system.
There were also recent repairs to the ship's alternator, although senior cruise director Vance Gulliksen said there is no evidence to suggest the latest fire has anything to do with that problem.

Recent Noe Valley reviews
"Our stay at this apartment was so enjoyable because it had every thing we needed. The kitchen is small, but included plenty of dishes, glasses, cooking equipment, etc. The bed and linens were fresh and comfortable. There is adequate storage and a nice dining table, couch and side chairs make relaxing pleasant. The neighborhood is quiet, clean, friendly and every sort of commercial need is easily met - coffee shop, food markets, restaurants, pharmacy and the metro stop is two blocks away. Eileen is most accommodating and helped us out with every request. I highly recommend this apartment for a single person or a couple."Guest: Jean W. Date of Stay: June 2015 Review Submitted: July 12, 2015View listing
"This rental is in a fabulous neighborhood... Walking distance to great local restaurants, shops and a weekend farmers market. We were very comfortable and enjoyed spending time in the lovely back yard (despite the cold). Everything was clean and we had most everything we needed during our stay. It was nice to have some comforts for our young kids as well (crib, high chair & laundry)... as it made it easier for us to relax. :) The only downs were tight parking for our van (which is everywhere in SF) & the bathroom needed some minor repairs. Overall we would absolutely stay here again. It took about 20-25 minutes to drive to downtown San Francisco sights with traffic."Guest: Alixess S. Date of Stay: May 2015 Review Submitted: May 24, 2015View listing
"Our stay at the Noe Valley flat was excellent. It is a well appointed space with plenty of room for a family. Our party included 2 adults and 3 children. The beds were very comfortable and everything was clean. The location is quiet, residential and within easy walking distance to Whole Foods Market, Starbucks and a variety of stores and restaurants. Perhaps one of the nicest surprises was the deck/backyard area. Flowers were in bloom and many birds sited. When we return to San Francisco, this will definitely be our place of choice."Guest: Angley Date of Stay: April 2015 Review Submitted: April 13, 2015View listing
"Great location; property had everything we desired for our stay! My wife fell in love with the Wedgewood stove! The keyless entry gave us one less thing to worry about, and parking was never an issue. A previous review mentioned the placement of the bathroom, which initially seemed to be in an odd spot; however it ended up not being a big deal just because we loved the place. We even used one of the provided grills in the yard - we bought charcoal but found we didn't need it because it was also provided! We will most definitely stay here again if we make another trip to San Francisco :-)"Guest: Tracey C. Date of Stay: June 2015 Review Submitted: July 3, 2015View listing

What we're watching: Rangers run up against King Felix
Jul 9, 2009, 4:39 PM EDT
– Felix Hernandez will attempt to cool off the Rangers, who have won
seven of their last eight games and have gone 5-0 against the Mariners
this season. He's 4-9 with a 4.35 ERA lifetime against Texas, but he
did pitch seven scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Rangers
back on May 14. The Rangers will throw Tommy Hunter, who has given them
two straight positive outings since coming up to replace the injured
Matt Harrison. He's 1-1 with a 3.18 ERA in three starts overall. It
seems like a pretty good guess that Andruw Jones will be in the lineup
tonight, though he was held out of both of King Felix's previous starts
against the Rangers. He hit three homers last night, giving him five in
his last four games.
– Tim Lincecum can add to his case for starting the All-Star Game
for the NL squad by beating the Padres tonight. However, that's not
been such an easy assignment for him in the past. Even though he has a
1.43 ERA in 10 starts versus San Diego in his career, he's just 3-2
against the team. When he faced the Padres on May 21, he allowed one
run in seven innings, only to take a no-decision in a 3-2 loss. On
April 12, he was handed one of his two losses when he gave up four runs
in 5 1/3 innings versus San Diego. Of course, Lincecum is throwing a
whole lot better now than he was then. He's allowed just one run over
25 innings in his last three starts, all of which were wins. He's 9-2
with a 2.23 ERA.
Game of the Night
Atlanta vs. Colorado – Who isn't excited to see Tommy Hanson try to
match Jung Keun Bong? If Hanson wins tonight, he'll become the first
Braves rookie to start his career 5-0 since the Korean left-hander did
so in 2003. Hanson took a no-decision last time out despite giving up
just one run in seven innings. He has a 0.90 ERA in five starts since
getting roughed up in his major league debut on June 7. Pitching for
Colorado will be ace Aaron Cook, who is already riding a five-game
winning streak. He has a 2.47 ERA in his last nine starts.

Portland Harbor sinks under Superfund stigma
|| Print |
|Articles - January 2010
|Wednesday, December 16, 2009
Page 3 of 5Much of the pollution in the Willamette can be traced to businesses that no longer exist in the harbor. The Arkema site, formerly known as the Atofina factory, is one example. It shut down its Portland operation in 2001 and is now one of many vacant and contaminated properties controlled by the chemical company that spun off from the 180 billion euro French oil and chemical company Total Fina Elf. The Department of Environmental Quality issued a press release in 2005 saying that Arkema had agreed to clean up the property, but the actual work still has yet to begin.
Another example of the daunting challenges of Superfund can be found directly across the river from Arkema, at the 43-acre McCormick and Baxter property. This former creosoting plant was named a Superfund site eight years before the rest of the harbor, and it has taken a Herculean effort to clean it up. About 33,000 tons of highly contaminated soil and debris were dug out of the ground here and transported by rail to the landfill in Arlington in 1999. Contractors built an 18-acre subsurface barrier wall to keep the creosote out of the river in 2003 and added a 23-acre sediment cap and a six-acre riparian soil cap in 2005. More than $55 million has been spent to clean up the property, and it still has not earned a clean bill of health.
All of that money has come from taxpayers. That's because McCormick and Baxter is an "orphan" site, meaning its owners are insolvent. The "Superfund" after which the federal program is named no longer exists, because oil and chemical companies stopped paying into the fund long ago. The system is designed under the principle that the polluter pays, but when the polluter can't pay things get tricky — and risky.
The University of Portland, which sits on the bluff above the McCormick and Baxter property, has been considering buying it for years and nearly signed a contract several years ago. But fears of inheriting onerous liability have slowed that deal to a glacial pace, even though it would seem like a bargain for the university and the neighborhood around it. A year ago the University expanded down to the waterfront by buying a 35-acre former shipbuilding facility and lumberyard adjacent to McCormick and Baxter, but that transaction proved neither fast nor smooth. UP assistant vice president James Kuffner estimates the university has invested $10 million over five years in a multi-agency effort to push the deal through. He says the university is excited to develop sports fields, salmon habitat, rowing facilities and environmental labs along the river, but the intensity of the process and the number of attorney hours required made him hesitant about a second acquisition.
Kuffner's doubts about the deal grew more urgent after a consultant showed him that one of the groundwater monitoring wells on the McCormick and Baxter property was pumping out inordinately hot water, indicating that something unusual was going on chemically with the material under the cap. "I'm no expert, but I certainly didn't like seeing water 110 degrees underneath a property we could become liable for."
For all of the challenges and setbacks of the McCormick and Baxter site, public officials still hold it up as evidence that a better future could lie ahead for the harbor. UP, a 100-year-old, 600-employee institution with an annual economic impact of $169 million, has been trying for years to expand without disturbing its neighbors, and its move to the waterfront will eventually create construction jobs, open space and a vibrant new gathering place.
That's better than stagnation. When the harbor was first targeted by the EPA, key players vowed to avoid the delays and bickering that have turned so many other Superfund cleanups into multi-decade wars of attrition. The port, the city and a dozen key harbor businesses joined to form the Lower Willamette Group and predicted they would have a Record of Decision (ROD) in place by 2006, laying out a clear plan for cleanup. That deadline has come and gone, and the ROD is nowhere near completed because the remedial investigation laying the groundwork for eventual cleanup took much longer and cost much more than was expected. The investigation was supposed to take just a couple of years, but it ended up lasting eight years and costing $75 million. The study is so detailed that the cost of simply printing it out is $3,000. The next step of devising a cleanup plan based on that science is sure to be similarly complex and expensive.

I have been working at Alta It Services as a contractor (Less than a year)Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEODoesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEO
Recruitment process was timely and the recruiter was good at following up. Experience with benefits was not applicable here as I was on COBRA from a job I was laid off from (but see below). Pay was in line with my experience and what the industry norms were. Worked as a subcontractor on a fed contract. Executive office very responsive to feedback.
Follow-up once I was hired was probably amongst the worst of any company I've worked for. The PM that ostensibly was supposed to be assigned to me never talked to me in the 5+ months I was there. The job was supposed to have me hired by the prime within 3-4 months, but this never happened as the prime (probably) mismanaged the contract spend and had to lay off people, including me. In fact it was the manager of my section (he was an employee of the prime) that told me I was going to get laid off, and not ALTA. The PM did no follow-up, and did not even attempt to get recruiting to inform me about other open positions. Basically a totally horrible experience, which I informed the executive suite about. Also if I recall correctly, they had a 90-day probationary period before health insurance benefits were offered.
Advice to Management
Executive Office was quick to respond to a very vocal complaint, which I appreciated. That said, the unprofessionalism displayed by recruiting and the ALTA PM I worked under were totally unacceptable, especially given the circumstances under which my position was ultimately affected by. Not sure if said persons were ever held accountable for lack of follow-through, especially since the job I was doing was well-compensated and they had placed some other people under this contract.

We love these sandwiches definetly a new favorite :)
This recipe is very tasty with an interesting texture. Unless you're a fan of hard work, use a food processor. The pate was originally pounded to the proper consistency in a mortar and pestle... It can be used all sorts of ways - made into balls for soup, sliced after cooking and added to lettuce or rice paper rolls, served with shrimp chips for munchies - whatever inspires you. The cinnamon flavor is discernible but not overpowering. I've actually made this recipe and found it to be a keeper.
