Project 365 - February NOW AVAILABLE!!
I'm running late... but it's finally FINISHED!!! Next month it is my goal to release March's Project 365 on the 1st of March lol
Project 365 - An ongoing Collection of resources to help you document your everyday moments.
The good, the bad, the beautiful, and the ugly! Our lives are filled with joy and tragedy, defining moments, as well as mundane and necessary activities. It is all these put together that make us who we are, shape our family and create memories to last a lifetime.
By documenting all these, through photographs, words and creative expression, we can preserve the memories and give future generations the opportunity to share our life - not just the happy times, but an insight into what it is like to be 'us'.
So whether you want to follow the Project 365 religiously and take daily photographs, or whether you want to complete weekly or monthly summaries, or just the odd page now and then, here is a Collection that has everything you need!
If you missed January, you can find it here. And there are Basics which also coordinate with the entire Collection...
Thanks for looking, and happy scrapping

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) Texas aims to bring more pain to toll-road freeloaders by publishing a monthly list of habitual unpaid toll violators.
A Friday statement from the Texas Department of Transportation says TxDOT will publish updated lists of the state's top 25 toll-road scofflaws, starting Dec. 2.
The TxDOT statement says the department already has entered into payment discussions with 11 of the top 10 violators publicized last month, and six of those are now in good standing.
TxDOT finance chief James Bass says the department collected $1.3 million in unpaid tolls and fees in just the past month.
Updated lists will be posted to TxDOT.gov and TxTag.org. Violators who fail to contact the department can have their vehicles banned from toll roads, ticketed by law enforcement or impounded.

Thanks for your detailed and informative answers.
I respect your hesitance to rate the performance of the Nightmare bat. That speaks well of you and the inner confidence you must have in it.
The timeline you provided is much appreciated. Your reasoning is sound and the customers should come as the word gets out. I, for one, am willing to give this bat a try if only to support your efforts. And hopefully the performance will fit my skill set.
Now if you could only offer a different color...
Good luck and please keep us updated. Here's hoping you have found the "Holy Grail" of bats.

Discussion: Nightmare bat approved
tattooball, your devotion to bat design and honoring your friends is admirable. I want to try, and like the bat for those reasons alone.
IMO, ignoring the durability issue the Ultra II remains the bat to beat. Many pretenders have come and gone without matching the power of the Ultra.
My question to you would be, how does this Nightmare compare? The durability appears to be far superior but what about the actual hitting quality of the bat? I've seen the video of a big guy belting 350-400 foot shots but he could probably hit one out with a wiffle bat.
My next question would be this. Above you state that "Right now I am just selling the bats I have and working on the next one. This is the worst one I have made and as time goes on they will change rapidly."
-When will the next generation of this bat be available?
-What improvements can we expect?
Keep up the good work.

My sympathies to the overworked individual who must do the schedule and TD at the fields as well but this is too much.
As someone trying to get off work and drive to Phoenix, the difference between playing Friday morning or afternoon is significant to me.

Could someone explain why the schedule for session #3 (Oct 23-25) of the Worlds in Phoenix has still not been posted? It is now less than one week away.
Session #1 pairings were posted 11 days and session #2 matchups were given 9 days before the start of those sessions.

Haverhill woman nominated for Young Tenant of the Year award
Posted: February 24, 2014|
A former homeless woman has been shortlisted for an award honouring outstanding individuals.
Hazel Webb, 21, could take home the prize for Young Tenant of the Year after spending the last 12 months volunteering to help others.
Hazel moved into the Cangle Foyer, Haverhill – run by housing provider Riverside-ECHG – in January last year, and has since become a representative for other residents across the association.
As part of her work, she supports her peers with health issues including sexual health problems and substance abuse. She also provides a voice for other residents to air their problems and views on Riverside's services.
Tonia Punter, Riverside tenant involvement organiser, said: "All of Hazel's hard work to help improve her own situation, as well as the lives of other residents at The Cangle Foyer, has been highlighted by her shortlisting for this nationally-recognised award.
"Hazel has made great steps forward by becoming empowered to make positive changes in her own life as well as supporting others at The Cangle Foyer.
"Hazel has been tirelessly volunteering in a local Haverhill charity shop and offers support to other young people aged 12 to 19 in order to enhance her employability. We admire her dedication to all of the other projects she takes part in."
The 21-year-old has also been raising money for Cancer Research UK – she will take part in a headshave next month, and hopes to participate in a skydive in Great Yarmouth later in the year.
Riverside, in partnership with local organisations, provides youngsters with places to live and learn.
The awards are being run by national organisation The Tenant Participation Advisory Service.
The winner will be announced on March 7.

Am I starting this correctly?
by BellaMobile, Window Shopper
- Created: July 22, 2010, 7:12 pm
I want to start a mobile spa service. I am currently in Texas, but I plan to move to another state very soon.
I've obtained an EIN, a Duns number, and a Texas Taxpayer ID.
I want this to be an LLC, but I have not filed with the Secretary of State so I assume as of right now I'd still be considered a sole proprietor?
I've already looked at the links here on the website, but I'm still a little confused on the process.
Should I file with the Secretary of State here in Texas to establish myself, or should I wait until I move? Does it matter where an LLC is formed? Can you move it to another state?
Does anyone know of a professional service that will write my business plan for me?
How am I supposed to go about establishing credit when creditors have no credit report to check? I can't get credit without a report, but I can't get a report without credit! What am I to do?!
Since I have an EIN am I obligated to pay taxes even if I never do anything with it? Are you required to pay just for the mere fact that you have an EIN?
I'll stop there with the questions for now, but I probably have 1,000 more. Oh and yes, I do know about the Score and SBA advisors, I just haven't set up an appointment yet because I feel as though I need to have some background information first. I feel completely clueless as to how to get this whole thing up and running!

I think you can try to have some remote office. That's what I plan to do if ever I relocate in other State.
BizResearcher | Window Shopper | 7/27/2010 - 8:32 am
You may want to visit a small business development center or a SCORE office in your new state. The counseling is free and they can answer your questions as they pertain to your new state. An EIN has many purposes and having one does not require you to pay taxes of any kind. The EIN serves as your tax payer identification number instead of using your SS number. Many businesses and banks will no longer accept your SS# as your identification. When you file for and EIN, the government assumes you have employees and sends you a payment booklet. You can easily cancel that by returning a coupon with a balance of zero owed and a letter stating that you have no employees at the present time.
NicoleD | Former Moderator | 7/23/2010 - 10:21 am
BellaMobile - First congrats on your new venture. I will try answer some of your pressing questions here, and perhaps some members who have experience can also jump in. First, regarding relocating your business - I recommend that you read these two guides from Business.gov: Moving to a New State: A Small Business Relocation Checklistthis article sheds some light on the regulatory side of relocating your business to a new state - from corporate structure issues and tax ramifications to business registration and licensing Relocating a Businessthis article walks through goals and objectives of relocating a business, and tips for increasing your odds of success in a new environment. Regarding business plans - The following resources will help you develop a sound business plan, including video tutorials, free templates, and technical guidance: How to Write a Business Plan
teamextension | Contributor | 7/22/2010 - 10:26 pm
The state matters. Since you are moving very soon, form the LLC in the new state. Write it yourself. Use software like Business Plan Pro to help guide you. Writing the business plan is a lot of thinking and planning for you. If you are going to use this business plan to get a loan, you can then look for a professional service to make it pretty after you have written it yourself. You will be most likely be using your personal credit while your business is new. Use your business name and EIN for everything related to the business and you will build credit as you go. D&B can also help build credit for businesses. You are required to pay taxes for any income earned, not because you have an EIN.
gbs03 | Creator | 8/3/2010 - 3:25 am
Ultimately, the choice of plan isn't based as much on the stage of business as it is on the type of business, financing requirements, and business objective. Here are some important indicators of the level of plan you'll need, even as a startup: Some of the simpler businesses keep a plan in the head of the owner, but every business has a plan. Even a one-person business can benefit from creating a plan document with ideas written down, because the process of producing a plan is useful and valuable. As soon as a second person is involved, the need for planning multiplies. The plan is critical for communicating values, goals, strategies, and detailed implementation. As soon as anybody outside the company is involved, then you have to provide more information. When a plan is for internal use only, you may not need to describe company history and product features, for example. Stick to the topics that add value, that make you think, that help support decisions. When you involve people outside the company, then you need to provide more background information as part of the plan. For discussion purposes, text is enough to get a plan started. Try describing your mission, objective, keys to success, target market, competitive advantage, and basic strategies. How well does this cover your business idea?

Weekend Recap
Move-in and new student orientation are behind us, and with all the events over the past few days it's hard to remember everything that happened. Scroll down for a brief recap of the week that was.

Friday saw the world's largest "ONU" made out of human beings ... (video)
... and the price was definitely right at Friday evening's SPC event ...
... and so was the live music on the Tundra!!!
ACE Day volunteers woke up early on Saturday to make a great first impression on their new community ... (photo gallery)

Lenten Devotions: "Follow Me"
This Lenten season, Bread Blog will be running a series of devotions written by Pastor Ron Glusenkamp, senior pastor at Bethany Lutheran Church in Cherry Hills Village, Colo. The reflections are based, in part, on the music of Peter Mayer, accomplished vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter. The theme for this year's series is "Mighty This Love," named for one of Mayer's compositions (Listen to a special welcome message from Mayer).
This post is reprinted, with permission, from Glusenkamp's site, h20 devos. Audio podcast versions of the daily devotionals are also available.
"Follow me to the place where dreams come true
Follow me and we can see this through
Follow me until the end
on this you can depend
Follow me and I will follow you."
—Lyrics from "Follow Me," by Roger Guth, Peter Mayer, and Jim Mayer
On this day in 1980 Oscar Romero, archbishop of San Salvador, was assassinated.
I've posted a picture from Westminster Abbey of some modern martyrs: Martin Luther King, Jr., Romero, and Dietrich Bonhoeffer. These three followed Jesus with such intensity and passion that it cost them their lives. They were and are witnesses to the transforming love of God.
About 20 years ago, I was serving as an associate pastor in Wichita, Kansas. I was able to learn about Bread for the World from some wonderful Methodist and Mennonite clergy and lay people. I had a pretty good understanding of Methodism, but I didn't know too much about the Mennonites. I quickly learned that Lutherans had not always been very kind to their Anabaptist brothers and sisters. I purchased a book, A Third Way, by Paul M. Lederach. One day when I was reading it, these words from Menno Simons caught my eye and my heart:
"Just as natural bread has to be kneaded of many kernels of grain broken in the mill, together with water and then baked by the heat of the fire, in the same way the church of Christ is made up of many believers, broken in their hearts by the mill of God's word, baptized with water by the Holy Spirit, and brought together in one body by pure and unadulterated love at the Lord's table."
As Wesley once wrote, "I felt my heart strangely warmed."
Yesterday afternoon, we had an event at church where the young families could bake pretzels with me. Prior to making and baking the pretzels we gathered together in a big circle and shared in the Lord's Supper. It was just as Menno Simons wrote: "[B]rought together in one body by pure and unadulterated love at the Lord's table."
Pretzels are a symbol of the Trinity. They are fun to bake. Great to eat. And even more wonderful to share with family, friends, neighbors and even strangers.
I'm humbled and honored this day to be surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses.

Father and son orthodontists R.G. "Wick" and Moody Alexander can say they've set several generations of the city's teeth on a straight path.
Drs. Alexander Orthodontics at 840 W. Mitchell St. has been in operation for 50 years, treating more than 17,500 children and adults. Add to that the thousands of people who have benefited from Wick Alexander's own Alexander LTS Bracket technique, which has been taught to orthodontists worldwide. ...
Alexander still instructs on his technique all over the world, and this year alone has visited China, Japan and Germany. The bracket-bracing system makes straightening teeth "a little easier and there's less discomfort," said Alexander. He is also a clinical professor of orthodontics at Texas A&M University Baylor College of Dentistry.

Teen Mom
Catelynn Lowell Denies Being Pregnant Again
Word on the street is that Teen Mom's Catelynn Lowell and her hubby-to-be Tyler Baltierra have joined the cast of Vh1's Couples Therapy — and while the reality star isn't denying that piece of news, she is denying being pregnant again.
When a fan on Twitter questioned Catelynn about the latter, she responded with a resounding "NOT TRUE." And since it's written in caps you know she means business.
So how did this rumor start in the first place? We have no idea, considering that Catelynn and Tyler are currently putting their careers first. Just look at their recent string of cryptic tweets and sudden move to Los Angeles, which they've been teasing nonstop on Twitter. Catelynn even said fans would "freak" over their new endeavor.
At first we assumed they were working on a wedding spin-off (they're planning to get hitched on July 13, 2013), and then we thought maybe Tyler had landed a major acting gig. But now, with this new Couples Therapy report from TMZ, we're all kinds of confused about what Catelynn and Tyler have up their sleeves.
And to make matters even more confusing, Teen Mom 2's Kailyn Lowry just revealed that Couples Therapy producers approached her and husband Javi Marroquin — but they turned down the opportunity because Javi's away at Air Force training.
And the plot thickens! But at least we can rule out another baby ... for now. Do you think Catelynn's telling the truth? Tell us below, Teen Mom fans!

Democrats and the media have long tried to blame congressional gridlock on Republican "extremism." But the truth has always been that the two parties find themselves so far apart these days because while the GOP has become more conservative, the Democrats have moved to their left. And President Obama has, as Josh Kraushaar explains in a trenchant column at National Journal, played a key role in that shift.
Kraushaar writes that on some high-profile issues, the Democrats in Congress have followed Obama's lead when electoral considerations would suggest they go their own way. (It's one reason Obama has been such a disaster for his party's congressional caucuses in both midterm elections.) On the Keystone pipeline, for example, Obama has pulled his party in line with the environmental extremist base. On Israel, Obama has worked assiduously to drive a wedge between his party and the Israelis, calling into question Democrats' long pro-Israel history. The unpopular health-care law is another example.
Obama came to office wanting to be a Democratic Reagan by transforming the electorate in his image. "He has indeed transformed the Democratic party to his liking, but failed to get anyone else to follow suit," Kraushaar writes.
The key part for Democrats, however, is that Obama doesn't seem to care what happens to his party's congressional delegations; he has all but ignored Congress even on issues he repeatedly stated he needed their support for. Obama also made clear that he believes in the "I won" mode of politics, exacerbating a system that has seen wave elections in both directions in an increasingly winner-take-all brand of national politics.
So what to do? The Atlantic's Noah Gordon says that the practice of gerrymandering means not only do we have winner-take-all elections but they're the kind of elections that "waste" the most votes in doing so. (Gerrymandering is not the polarizing force it's often made out to be, but it's nonetheless an absurd practice that should be reformed.) One solution then, Gordon writes, would be for the U.S. to adopt a system of proportional representation, in which parties receive seats in the Congress (or parliament, or Knesset, etc.) proportional to their vote counts:
The American system of government is stable, popular, and backed by the Constitution—and dominated by two political parties. A political system comprised of multiple, smaller parties and shifting coalitions may be unimaginable in America, but it's the norm in most other democracies. While the United States is one of the world's oldest democracies, and spreading democracy is a central tenet of the country's foreign policy, our winner-take-all system itself is among our least-popular exports. In Western Europe, 21 of 28 countries use a form of proportional representation in at least one type of election.
There is, certainly, a fair amount to be said for such a system. And yet I can't help but notice that we've already devised a solution to many of the problems in our current system. Instead of proportional representation, here's a radical thought: why don't we try, say, a federal republic.
And Gordon almost gets there himself. Look at how Gordon describes some of the PR systems:
Israel elects all 120 members of its national legislature from a single multi-member district that encompasses the entire country, and the Netherlands does the same with its lower house. But districts that large can lead to over-representation of fringe parties who receive just a small percentage of the vote, as well as giving numerous tiny parties the ability to make outsized demands from big parties if they lack a majority.
Indeed, and if anybody doubts the power of more marginal parties they can take a look at the latest Knesset polls for next month's election and try to piece together what a governing coalition–any governing coalition–might look like. And in larger countries, it would be unmanageable to have the entire state as essentially one district for the purposes of elections. Gordon takes another step toward a solution:
So larger countries often break themselves down into smaller districts to ensure legislators have some connection to a particular geographic area.
Now we're getting somewhere. Hey, we're a large country. How might we follow this advice? Back to Gordon:
In the United States, those geographical areas could be the states.
There it is. Unfortunately Gordon stops there, and just games out how proportional representation would apply to the geographical-areas-otherwise-known-as-states.
But he shouldn't. The best way to prevent the worst effects of winner-take-all national elections is to have the American system as it was meant to be, with states given far more leeway and government subject to far more local control. Not total control, mind you. But definitely not the top-down approach favored especially by Democrats in which the federal government seeks to impose an inflexible, universal standard on everything from health care to education to drug policy to gun laws to social issues to right-to-life concerns to employment restrictions.
Nothing wastes votes more than nullifying local governance on a grand scale. Yes, there are problems with how America conducts its national elections. And the obsessive focus on national elections is one of them.

Easter's messages
Perhaps you'll mark today with an Easter egg hunt, in your home or with a larger group.
Perhaps you'll gather around the dinner table – or the picnic table – for ham and other traditional Easter dishes, chocolate bunnies included.
Chances are good, if you are a Christian, your day will include some time in church, even if you're one of those sometimes referred to as "C and Es." If you're an early riser, you may already have taken part in a traditional sunrise service.
Today wraps up Holy Week for Christians – and for many, 40 days of Lenten reflection and sacrifice. And today is nearing the end of Passover, the eight-day commemoration of Jews emancipation from slavery in Egypt.
For both faith traditions, these are spiritually important days, but even for those of other faiths, or no faith, this season is one of rebirth and renewal, as longer days, warmer temperatures, budding trees and blossoming flowers announce that spring, that most hopeful of seasons, is truly here.
Like that other most sacred of Christian observances, Christmas, Easter has been enveloped in the commercial nature of modern society. It's easy to lose sight of theological meaning when we are bombarded with news of special sales and enticed by the lure of something new for the season.
And like many observances, this one has roots that reach back far more than 2,000 years and has antecedents that have been blended into the modern religious traditions.
As a writer put it in the British newspaper, The Guardian, earlier this month, "the fun things about Easter are pagan. Bunnies are a leftover from the pagan festival of Eostre, a great northern goddess whose symbol was a rabbit or hare. Exchange of eggs is an ancient custom, celebrated by many cultures. Hot cross buns are very ancient too. In the Old Testament we see the Israelites baking sweet buns for an idol, and religious leaders trying to put a stop to it. The early church clergy also tried to put a stop to sacred cakes being baked at Easter. In the end, in the face of defiant cake-baking pagan women, they gave up and blessed the cake instead."
If you are put off by some aspects of today's celebrations – whether because they are too sacred or too secular for your tastes – best to adopt the attitude attributed to those early clergy –give up and immerse yourself in the day in whatever strikes you as the most appropriate way.
For our part, we think today is an excellent time to reflect on the message of the faith born of the story of sacrifice and resurrection. It's a good day to remember the least among us, to commit to work for peace and justice, to take as an affront to that who we worship that one in four of our city's residents are poor and to try to live by that central tenet of the faith, to do unto others as we would have them do unto us.

Merkel Spokesman Queries Westerwelle Comment on Helping Greece
June 18 (Bloomberg) -- A spokesman for Chancellor Angela Merkel today queried comments by her foreign minister, Guido Westerwelle, suggesting Germany was ready to give Greece more time to fulfill the terms of its bailout.
Georg Streiter, Merkel's deputy chief spokesman, told reporters that while the outcome of Greece's election yesterday was good for Europe, "this is not the time for some sort of rebates" for the country. "The terms of the bailout agreement are still valid," he said.
The remarks, in response to reporters' questions at a regular press conference in Berlin, followed comments made by Westerwelle yesterday after the release of Greek exit polls. Westerwelle, a member of the Free Democratic Party which serves as Merkel's junior coalition partner, said he can "imagine we could do something in terms of the time frame," while adding that "one thing must be clear: the treaties must be valid in substance. They can't be canceled or renegotiated."
Merkel's government is awaiting a review of Greece's record of sticking to bailout pledges by the so-called troika comprised of the European Commission, the International Monetary Fund and the European Central Bank, before weighing how to help Greece, Streiter said.

Lipscomb soccer takes home Battle of the Boulevard ...
The Battle of the Boulevard is routinely one of the biggest games of the year for all Lipscomb and Belmont sports teams. The heated rivalry often leads to physical, heated matches, and this incarnation was no different.
In front of the home crowd, the Bisons earned a hard-fought victory in their first game of the season against the rival Bruins 3-2.
Senior and captain Luke Gearin, recently voted the pre-season A-Sun Defensive player of the Year, put away the game-winning goal off of a penalty kick in the second half of overtime.
Fellow senior and A-Sun pre-season Player of the Year Omar Djabi drew the foul that earned the penalty kick with three minutes to go in the second overtime period.
The high-scoring affair began with a goal from junior forward Zach Tarbox fifteen minutes into the game, followed by a Belmont equalizer from sophomore forward AJ Arnold late in the first half.
Belmont sophomore keeper Grayson Rector and Lipscomb sophomore keeper Micah Bledsoe made back-to-back key saves for their respective squads early in the second half.
Ten minutes into the second half Lipscomb junior midfielder Josue Chavez rocketed a shot in from outside the box to give the Bisons a 2-1 lead.
Senior Bruin midfielder Rashad Hyacenth fired in an impressive shot of his own halfway through the second half to tie the game at two apiece.

مملكة أيرلندا هي الاسم الذي تم إعطاءه إلى ولاية أيرلندا، بداية من عام 1541, عن طريق تاج أيرلندا. تحرك عام 1542 من برلمان أيرلندا. الملك الجديد استبدل حكم أيرلندا, الذي تم أنشاؤه في عام 1171. الملك هنري الثامن أصبح أول ملك لأيرلندا منذ عام 1169. تم إلغاء ملك أيرلندا منذ أن انضمت إلى المملكة العظمى البريطانية في عام 1801.
- ^ W. G. Perrin and Herbert S. Vaughan, 1922, "British Flags. Their Early History and their Development at Sea; with an Account of the Origin of the Flag as a National Device", Cambridge University Press: Cambridge, pp. 51-52:
- The red saltire on white ground which represents Ireland in the Union flag had only an ephemeral existence as a separate flag. Originating as the arms of the powerful Geraldines, who from the time of Henry II held the predominant position among those whose presence in Ireland was due to the efforts of the English sovereigns to subjugate that country, it is not to be expected that the native Irish should ever have taken kindly to a badge that could only remind them of their servitude to a race with whom they had little in common, and the attempt to father this emblem upon St Patrick (who, it may be remarked, is not entitled to a cross - since he was not a martyr) has evoked no response from the Irish themselves.
- The earliest evidence of the existence of the red saltire flag known to the author occurs in a map of "Hirlandia" by John Goghe dated 1576 and now exhibited in the Public Record Office. The arms at the head of this map are the St George's cross impaled on the crowned harp, but the red saltire is prominent in the arms of the Earl of Kildare and the other Geraldine families placed over their respective spheres of influence. The red saltire flag is flown at the masthead of a ship, possibly an Irish pirate, which is engaged in action in the St George's Channel with another ship flying the St George's cross. The St George's flag flies upon Cornwall, Wales and Man, but the red satire flag does not appear upon Ireland itself, though it is placed upon the adjacent Mulls of Galloway and Kintyre in Scotland. It is, however, to be found in the arms of Trinity College, Dublin (1591), in which the banners of St George and of this saltire surmount the turrets that flank the castle gateway.
- The Graydon MS. Flag Book of 1686 which belonged to Pepys does not contain this flag, but give as the flag of Ireland (which, it may be noted, appears as an afterthought right at the end of the book) the green flag with St George's cross and the harp, illustrated in Plate X, fig. 3. The saltire flag is nevertheless given as "Pavillon d'Ierne" in the flags plates at the commencement of the Neptune François of 1693, whence it was copied into later flag collections.
- Under the Commonwealth and Protectorate, when England and Scotland were represented in the Great and other Seals by their crosses, Ireland was invariably represented by the harp that was added to the English and Scottish crosses to form a flag representative of the three kingdoms. At the funeral of Cromwell the Great Standards of England and Scotland had the St George's and St Andrew's crosses in chief respectively, but the Great Standard of Ireland had in chief a red cross (not saltire) on a yellow field.
- When the Order of St Patrick was instituted in 1783 the red saltire was taken for the badge of the Order, and since this emblem was of convenient form for introduction into the Union flag of England and Scotland it was chosen in forming the combined flag of England, Scotland and Ireland in 1801.

Monte Carlo. Australian driver Mark Webber won the Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday to give his Red Bull team a third successive win in Monte Carlo.
The 35-year-old driver won his second Monaco Grand Prix in three editions, and came in ahead of Germany's Nico Rosberg racing for Mercedes while Spain's two-time world champion Fernando Alonso was third in a Ferrari.
Webber — who was the sixth winner in six races this season — took pole position for the team on Saturday after clocking the second-fastest time behind seven-time champion German Michael Schumacher of Mercedes, who was given a five-place penalty for crashing during the Spanish Grand Prix two weeks earlier.
Webber's win follows a brief spate of controversy.
Red Bull also found themselves at the center of a technical row on Sunday, just hours before the start of the race.
Rival teams — believed to include McLaren, Ferrari and Mercedes— were said to be unhappy about the design of the floor used by the pole-sitting car to be driven by Webber.
According to paddock sources close to the engineering staff of those teams, they were unhappy at the creation of a "hole" in the floor of Red Bull's RB8 car, just ahead of the rear wheels.
None of the teams were prepared to make any official complaint about the floor design, but said instead that they hoped it may be discovered and investigated.
Red Bull said it had no comment to make on the issue, but a senior source at the team told Autosport.com that the design had been declared legal by the ruling body, the International Motoring Federation (FIA).
It is believed that the design has been in use on the car since the Bahrain Grand Prix, won by Red Bull's defending double world champion German Sebastian Vettel.
The "hole" may have contravened article 3.12.5 of F1's technical regulations.
It is believed to have been created to improve the airflow under the car and to increase the amount of rear end down-force, which in turn would improve the car's handling.

Willie Lyles told John Canzano of The Oregonian that he has spoken with NCAA investigators for hours, that he felt Oregon attempted to make him appear incompetent and that he his information that led to Oregon providing one of the nation's top running back recruits, Lache Seastrunk, with a pair of rare Air Jordan sneakers.
Lyles, the owner of the Texas-based recruiting company, Complete Scouting Services, recently told Yahoo Sports that Oregon coach Chip Kelly asked him to hastily compile recruiting profiles that would justify the $25,000 charge just days before the story of Lyles' financial relationship with the program broke.
"I answered the questions they asked me, that was it," Lyles told The Oregonian about speaking with the NCAA. "I really felt that, in a sense, I felt like I should help protect (Oregon) because we have a history."
But Lyles added he didn't like the way Oregon released documents in June that had 140 recruiting profiles and most were outdated. The following day, according to The Oregonian, the school released spreadsheets that covered four states and were up to date.
"(Oregon) tried to make me seem incompetent," Lyles told The Oregonian. "The other spreadsheet I gave them was a lot more extensive, when they didn't release that, it was like, 'Let's make it look like Willie didn't deliver what he said he was going to deliver.' "
Lyles spoke more with The Oregonian:
— On the recruitment of Seastrunk, who redshirted this past season: "He's a complete Jordan-head. That's one of the big things he liked. So Oregon had a pair of Jordans for him — only one of two pairs ever made."
— He's already invoiced Oregon and provided recruiting help for 2012. He said Kelly assured him that the deal was for multiple years. "I was told, 'This year we're going to have to make sure the paperwork is in order. My talking (now) has nothing to do with me not having the money. It was because they made me look like an incompetent jerk who was trying to swindle money from there."
— On cooperating with the NCAA: "What did Coach Kelly say to the NCAA? What did he say to the administration? That's going to be a key piece of information for them. I keep things. I don't throw things away. It bodes well in this circumstance."

By Jim GaramoneAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, March 24, 2006 Turkish-American relations are critical to the health of the United States, the top U.S. military officer said here today.
In a wide-ranging interview, Marine Gen. Peter Pace, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, spoke to Murat Akgun of Turkey's NTV network about a number of aspects of life in Turkey's geopolitical neighborhood.
Iraq dominated the discussion, with Pace talking about what's right and wrong in the country. He said the training of Iraqi security forces is moving ahead well. Iraqi troops, he said, control more than half of Baghdad and about a third of the rest of the country. About 75 percent of counterinsurgency operations have Iraqi units in the lead with only a quarter solely done by coalition forces, Pace said.
On the debit side, he said, are continuing suicide attacks and bombings. "These terrorists are trying to steal Iraq by fear," he said. "They know they have lost their opportunity to stop the elections and the writing of a constitution. They fear the stand-up of a representative government, and they are doing all they can right now to try to turn the tide. But they will fail again."
As the Iraqi military and police become more proficient, coalition forces will turn over more and more battle space to them, Pace said. There is no set timetable for coalition withdrawal from the country, and the coalition remains flexible with conditions on the ground dictating the size of the force. The United States raises and lowers level of forces in the country as needed, Pace explained. In December, about 168,000 American servicemembers were in Iraq. Today, there are about 133,000, he said.
"We will continue to monitor the situation, and as Iraqi troops take over more of the territory we will be able to back away and reduce our troop levels," he said.
Turkey is concerned about the possibility of a civil war in Iraq. Pace said he does not think there will be one, but that the opportunity for a civil war is present if the Iraqis decide to go down that path. Since the bombing of the Golden Mosque in Samarra on Feb. 22, the Iraqi people have glimpsed the path to civil war, but have chosen another route, he said. He credited religious and political leaders with urging calm and army and police with enforcing security.
Iraq must more forward politically for any true progress in the country. "If (the political leaders) come forward with a unified government -- Shiia, Sunni, Kurd and ... Iraqi in flavor through and through -- I think we will see a healthy and prosperous 2006," Pace said.
Turkey, with a large Kurdish population in the east, is worried about the effect a free Kurdistan in Iraq would have inside Turkey. Pace said it would not be good for Iraq to allow Kurdistan to become independent. "Iraq is a solid, prosperous, healthy country with well-educated individuals that has the opportunity now to build a very solid future," he said. "For them to splinter would certainly be bad for that country and bad for the region."
Underlying the concern about an independent Kurdistan is the presence of the PKK, a Kurdish separatist group that the U.S. State Department has listed as a terrorist organization. "Their existence is unacceptable to us and unacceptable to Turkey," Pace said. The PKK is operating in northern Iraq, and the United States and Iraq are committed to eliminating the group. But progress must wait until the Iraqi security forces are sufficiently strong to take on the organization, Pace said.
The chairman also discussed Iran and squashed rumors that the United States is contemplating a military solution to the standoff over Iran's use of nuclear material that could be used for making atomic bombs.
"Iran is a long way from needing any military solution," Pace said. "There are many things that can be done diplomatically and many countries working together to persuade Iran to work in such a way that is not dangerous to its neighbors. There are many things that can be done before any country contemplates a military option."

I know constructive criticism from persistent negativity. Now, I certainly do not have the time nor the patience for infantile exchanges. Again if you have no substantial comment on this topic, move on.
Thanks for railing us back.
First my condolences to the deceased. May her Chilren and family find consolation and comfort.
A poor woman is dead, and immediately the blame game on the Nigerian Woman begins. She must have done something to deserve it. The irrational logic of people like Akinyis and the Katampes of this world will never cease to amaze. A Nigerian man kills his wife, and the root cause is immediately traced and blamed on Nigerian Women whose eyes America and the Western world has opened. If it was a Nigerian woman who had killed her husband, guess who gets the blame? you're right: It is also the Nigerian women whose eyes are open by the West. The Nigerian man can never be wrong. Wonders of ignorance shall never cease to be amazing. May the Katampes and the Akinyis of this world find women who will grind their noses on the ground. May they marry a feminist in disguise who will pretend until she has hooked them and make mince meat of their blokos.
I think you are right, and until people start tackling this issue of madness in some different way we might continue to have pockets of this kind of incidents.It is indeed very humbling,but I don't think it is only our IBO brethen alone.It cuts across men and women, and commentators and writers of divisive articles between the sexes may also fall in this insanity category.It is the degree of rage that differs.Some come online to visit it on an unsuspecting virtual community, others on their spouses and end up killing them.
May the Lord have mercy on our souls!
This chap that calls himself salstep is in self denial. He cannot understand the importance of the story? He dismissed Stephen Lawrence death as something in the past; he dismissed Damilola Taylor death as simply stabbing by black boys; and the case of Ese, as merely the victim of UK\EU laws. And of course, if he has his way, he would throw me out of the UK. As far as this na├ā┬»ve and despicable sod is concern, he just tells it like he sees it.
That's the part that gets me. Especially when the same thing is already happening back home. What's the excuse then?
WHATEVER, Mr moderator.
See big K's post below:
When someone doesn't conform to the norm, u want to jump down his throat. I have said what i said, u either like or u don't. Take it how u like.

Re: .Nigerian man stabs wife to death
@fredlintaz...very well said. Folasayo is always on point IMO and I applaud all her efforts and wisdom.
May this woman's soul rest in perfect peace and may God grant her kids and loved ones the heart to get through.
What could have led this rageaholic to stab his wife to death? What in the world could they have argued about that he couldn't even stop to think of his kids even if jail or his life did not mean anything to him? What could she have done that he thought he had the right to end her life?
I hope other couples going through unpleasant situations in their homes/relationships seek help before it is too late. The Nigerian tradition frowns against washing our dirty linens in public so, rather than couples realizing that they need to seek help and address the real issues between them, couples pretend like all is okay and the problem persists and worsen.
Na real Wa..
Big K,
I sympathize with you o jere. The torture some of us have to go through in the attempt to be civil! Sigh..
These threads reeks of the very thing that holds us back as a people. A woman died from the vicious attacks from her husband. The news reaches NVS and is posted therein. People come in to comment as with other articles and news stories.
Then some folks think someone's comments trivialize the issue and, rather than focus on EXACTLY how he was wrong and correct him, they run him down, lambast him and judge him. Another person expresses his views from another angle that sought to understand why marriages fail but he is villified by someone else who does not agree with his views - and he is further condemned for his taste in the articles he features/allows on the website - by the way. And some others come in, and in that Holier than Thou manner, to preach at others for daring to approach the unfortunate news story from all the different angles; claiming God will judge those who have judged (commented?) on the individuals involved in the events that led to the death of a wife and a mother.
Until we learn to be less controlling, judgemental/hypocritical and dictatorial of others, we are bound to continue to have such bad altercations and problems arising amongst us. People should be free to comment however they feel like without being harangued by any other person. Don't hate the player, hate the Game - they say. If something does not agree with you, respond by focusing on the issue (not the person) and if the other person refuses to see things your way. Move the heck on. Ahn-ahn, kilode!
May the kids not suffer for the sins they did not commit...and again, my the woman's loved ones find the fortitude to bear their loss.
Although I haven't found much on culturally competent counseling services for Nigerian couples in the US, I have found a book psychologists recommend for people with anger management problems. It's "The Anger Management Sourcebook" by Glenn Schiraldi and Melissa Kerr. Biggest hurdle: getting someone with anger issues to agree that they have a problem and to calm down long enough to read a book. Anyone with info on culturally competent counseling services in the US, please share.

There are a few thought experiments I've been running through my head for the past few months. The questions that lack importance, given that they've already been answered. I can't help but ask anyway.
Why do languages have their own VM?
For most languages, you are limited to their custom engine. Certainly, programmers have made Ruby, Python and PHP for various virtual machines developed by Oracle and Microsoft. These are popular languages and for popular virtual machines.
The question is more broad. If I want to run Language X, then I need to find interpreter or compiler for my system. If such a thing exists, some of the more interesting languages have poor support for Windows.
My thoughts go beyond simply running code.
Why can't I use library written in Language X in Language Y?
A few things has peaked my interest in this thought experiment of mine. Technically, you should be able to do so using LLVM, given that if you compile to IR for a given language, then you should be able to call into that module from another supported language. There are details that are no simple and the first is that it would require having a reference to that library to know what the call depending on the restrictions within the caller language.
The second is HippyVM, which attempts to provide a VM for PHP using PyPy. One of the long term goals after successfully porting PHP to PyPy is interoperability between the two languages. Where you can call a PHP library from Python and a Python library from PHP. This could change things. Or maybe not.
The problem is the lack of success in Java VM, CLR and LLVM. It is certainly true in the technical sense that you should be able to call another library in another language, because it is after all, bytecode. The truth is that it is not easy and if something is not easy, then it is not often done. My criteria is calling into userland libraries and not built-in types and libraries, which are obviously supported.
Best practices, debugging and programming tools.
In the thought experiment, You have a VM that can run all languages that exist and will exist. In this VM, there is interop between languages and libraries.
So what do you get?
- Debugging tools and libraries that work in one language can be applied to other languages. In this environment, you don't require duplicate effort of porting libraries from one language to another.
- Programming tools from one language could be applied to another. So if you have a tool that formats code based on the VM AST, then could that be applied to another language as well? So formatting code to a coding standard would be as simple as running a command.
- Learning best practices from one language and applying it to another. If there was only one VM to code to, then what tools and best practices might come from it?
I think about all of the neat tools, libraries and code concepts that are coming from Node.JS, Ruby, Python, Clojure, etc. I wonder where it will go from here. Where would it go if every tool had a foundation for building off of? If it wasn't difficult to convert the JavaScript package tool to include every other language that is part of the VM.
If the tool to query the running debug state of JavaScript was just inherit of the VM and I could do it for PHP or JavaScript or Python.
DSLs and programming should be easy.
In my thought experiment, I think about the different concepts I've been learning from functional languages. How awesome these concepts are, and if they could be applied to my favorite languages.
I keep thinking back on the Python language and how everything should be as readable as possible. How everything should make sense as much as possible. You should be able to code how you think it should work and most of the time, it should just work. That is perhaps the best feeling in the world.
Yet, there is also a fascination with making code as small as possible using only symbols for most things. I weep when I think about how great functional languages are, but how complicated they are when starting out. There is a great power with Haskell and Clojure that I love and would enjoy.
It is true that with any language, there is a learning curve and I don't believe or at least there is no evidence that it will go away. BASIC and COBOL prove that even with the most simple of all languages, you still have a learning curve.
My point, is that code should be readable while not completely going into the realm of BASIC and COBOL. I'm not sure how to accomplish this and I think looking at Python and other languages that have this goal in mind should give some insights to a possible solution, if one exists.
Haskell does give one possible solution that I want to explore with experiments, if at all possible. Domain Specific Languages, might allow a programmer to provide an intuitive interface to a library as long as building the DSL is not complicated. If creating a mini language was simple, then would more programmers create them to provide an easier way of using their libraries?
It might create a problem where you have too many tiny DSL and programmers have a difficult time remembering and learning them all. It is one possibility and I'm not sure what the solution or if it is even a problem.

Saturday's big win in Toronto came at a costly price. The news broke this afternoon that Andrei Markov and Mathieu Schneider will be out for extended periods of time, due to injuries sustained during the game.
Markov, out for 3 weeks, has 64 points in 78 games this year. He has been the key to the Habs transition game and a mainstay on a powerplay that has been heating up recently. Markov eats up 25 minutes per night, plays against opposing teams top lines and plays a significant role in specialty situations, meaning he will be impossible to replace.
Schneider, who came over from Atlanta about a week before the deadline in exchange for a draft pick, will be out for the rest of the year. According to RDS.ca, Schneider will undergo an operation that will keep him sidelined for a long time. The veteran defenseman, along with Markov, has helped stabilize Montreal's powerplay since his arrival. He has played 21 games for the Canadiens and has put up 16 points, 13 of which have come with the man advantage.
With the injuries, the top 6 D will look much different. Tonight, the pairings will be Komisarek – Gorges, Hamrlik – Brisebois and O'Byrne – Janik (recent call-up from Hamilton). Mathieu Dandenault will play up front, as he provides good insurance in the event that someone gets hurt and has to miss some time during the game. Francis Bouillon is still recovering from his groin injury suffered in February, so he is not an immediate option. The concern for me right now is the powerplay more than anything, which leads me to hope that the Canadiens' Organization gives Yannick Weber another shot. It couldn't hurt having him play 7-9 minutes per game at even strength and getting additional time on the PP.
Clearly, this will hurt the Canadiens' chances to advance in the playoffs, but let's not collectively jump ship right away. Let's see how they finish the year with these final 4 games. People in New Jersey were equally pessimistic when they found out that Marty Brodeur would miss the majority of the year, and that team turned out ok. The Habs play the Sens tonight in Montreal, where a win would almost secure a playoff spot for the bleu-blanc-et-rouge.

I don't think you should restrict the players to a Mantas or Walrus as an actual game feature. If we were to limit the amount of players in a game to five (for each team), then that means we've got a commander (perhaps selected by your method, or selected in the lobby by team vote) and four players. Then those four other players could alternate between the eight units at their own choice, depending on what they want to play or which unit is more useful at the time.
There are times where having four players all in one unit type could be useful, or split them up so there's two in each.
And if the team wants to nominate a Walrus/Manta commander, then they can do so, but there doesn't need to be any actual gameplay mechanic lableing them as such.
