text: The biannual international event dedicated to the world of fish and marine ecosystems has now reached its fifth edition. Debates, meetings, workshops and tastings will focus on issues linked to sustainable fishing and responsible seafood consumption. Slow Fish is organized by the Liguria Regional Authority and Slow Food, with the support of the Carige Foundation, the Province of Genoa, the Genoa Chamber of Commerce and the City of Genoa. The web portal www.slowfish.it, in Italian, English, French and Spanish, explores what's new for the 2011 edition, with information on bookable events and all the tastings, conferences and meetings in the programme. One section is dedicated to the international Slow Fish campaigns, launched by Slow Food after Slow Fish 2009. The campaigns aim to inform consumers, promoting good, clean and fair fish and creating connections between all those working to make fishing and fish consumption sustainable. The 2009 edition was dedicated to fish species, and this year the spotlight turns on the people of the sea. Displays will be organised along a path from the past to the present: artisanal fishing as it used to be, what cultures it involved and what opportunities, hardships and skills; and small-scale fishing as it is now, how it has modernised, how it relates to the world and how it has suffered from globalisation. The Market exhibition area will offer a rich display of fresh and preserved fish, oils, spices, salt, seaweed and other related products. All the exhibitors, Italian and international, have committed to not using artificial preservatives and flavours and will not sell bluefin tuna, swordfish, shark and salmon, species at risk of extinction. The Presidia of the Sea can also be found in the Market, offering concrete examples of how fishing communities can live in harmony with the ecosystem, preserving the marine fauna and adding value to their work by selling high-quality fresh fish and processed products. For the first time, Slow Fish 2011 will be extending beyond the pavilions of the Genoa Fiera to involve prestigious locations around the city, with conferences and meetings open to the public, organized in collaboration with the Festival of Science. The event organisers have taken a systemic approach to reducing its environmental impact, continuing the work begun by Slow Food at the Salone del Gusto 2006. The aim is to make a significant commitment in every aspect of the event, whether in the choice of recyclable display materials, goods transport, waste management or water and energy use.

Sammy Davis Jr.
Sammy Davis Jr. was a versatile and dynamic singer, dancer and actor who overcame extraordinary obstacles to become a leading American entertainer.
The showman was born in a Harlem tenement, grew up in vaudeville from the age of 3 and never went to school. His talents as a mime, comedian, trumpet player, drummer, pianist and vibraphonist as well as singer and dancer were shaped from his childhood and made him one of the nation's first black performers to gain mainstream acclaim.
With heavy jewelry around his neck and on his fingers, and clad in a snug jumpsuit or tuxedo, the short, slim showman with a broken nose, defiant jaw and big, crooked smile had a rakish charm that energized stages for decades. He sold out leading nightclubs and concert halls, won personal triumphs in such Broadway musicals as ''Mr. Wonderful'' (1956) and ''Golden Boy'' (1964), illumined movies and television and made scores of hit recordings with such signature songs as ''What Kind of Fool Am I?,'' ''Candy Man,'' ''Mr. Bojangles'' and ''I've Gotta Be Me.''
He died of throat cancer on March 13, 1990, at the age of 64.

CRANSTON -- Some thoughts on Woonsocket's 28-14 victory over Tolman in Sunday's Division II Super Bowl:
Woonsocket just had too many weapons, too many ways to win the game, than Tolman did. The Villa Novans had a big size advantage in the middle of both lines, they had way more seniors than Tolman in their starting lineup, and they had a better game plan.
Woonsocket coach Carnell Henderson wanted to try to beat Tolman's constant blitzing tactics by throwing the ball, getting it out on short slants to receivers Jesse Charette, Jarome Robinson and Geo Heredia. Quarterback Kevin Reyes threw the ball on seven of Woonsocket's first 10 plays from scrimmage (he was sacked trying to pass on another one). Reyes showed a strong arm while completing six of 14 passes for 103 yards.
Charette scored two touchdowns, one on a 25-yard pass from Reyes, the other on a 41-yard scamper down the left sideline that left people shaking their heads in disbelief at his athletic skills.
Woonsocket just had too many playmakers for Tolman. Tight end Geo Heredia eluded defensive back Josey Knapp's chuck at the line of scrimmage and caught an 18-yard TD pass. Heredia also intercepted two of Knapp's passes and caught Mamour Samb from behind after a 40-yard kickoff return.
Woonsocket's defensive linemen -- Manny Heredia, Desmond Gray, Joe Rodriguez, Geo Heredia and Joell Sherrod -- were just too big, too strong, too tough for Tolman's undersized linemen to deal with. If games are won in the trenches, this is where Woonsocket demonstrated its superiority.
Those big linemen allowed people like Oswald Torres, Jarome Robinson and Kyle McKellick the chance to fly to the football. It was pretty impressive to see Torres run down the speedy Knapp. Tolman just could not turn the corner on its sweeps and reverses, a staple of the Tigers' offense all season long. Halfback Ousmane Samb, who ran for 165 yards last week against St. Raphael, got 12 yards on 15 carries.
Knapp finished with 59 yards on 23 carries.
Tolman deserves credit for hanging around and trying to make a game of it in the fourth quarter. The Tigers recovered two straight onsides kicks, which is pretty amazing. But Woonsocket's defense just wouldn't let them convert on a short field.
Woonsocket was clearly the better team today. Tolman made too many mistakes, right from the start of the game. Woonsocket made mistakes, too, otherwise the final margin of victory might have been three or four touchdowns.

NEWPORT–Alex Giroux is a good golfer.
Actually, Alex Giroux is a very good golfer, but you would never know that if you sat down to talk with him.
The soft-spoken fourteen year-old from Derby is one of the best young golfers in the state of Vermont, and he has back-to-back Vermont State Junior Stroke Play Championships to prove it.
But he was so quiet about it, even the Newport Country Club's Head Pro Kim O'Neil didn't know he had won in 2011 until the 2012 tournament.
But you don't just up and win titles, not in this game.
I went up to the Newport Country Club on Tuesday, July 9th to speak with Alex and to see how he was able to become one of the state's top junior golfers.
To see what he had to say, see the Express on 7-10-13.

BUZZ: Justin Schultz To Make A Decision Tomorrow
Bob McKenzie of TSN tweets that free-agent defenseman Justin Schultz will make a decision sometime tomorrow where he's signing on July 1.
The New York Rangers are believed to be on the short list of teams Schultz is interested in playing for that include Edmonton, Vancouver, Toronto, Ottawa and Minnesota. New York made their presentation to Schultz's camp yesterday in Toronto.
James' Thoughts: While the Rangers will not guarantee playing time for Schultz, they do offer the best opportunity for him: a coach that likes to rely on youth for production/strong play, two former Wisconsin Badgers for comfortability and a young team close to winning a Stanley Cup.

Chronicles of War (World of Warcraft)by Christie Golden
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Over the eons, an endless struggle between the forces of order and chaos has shaped the world of Azeroth and its inhabitants. The orcish Hordes violent invasion of the Eastern Kingdoms stands as one of historys most tumultuous periods. Through the Burning Legions demonic machinations, the once-noble orcs were transformed into a nearly unstoppable foe and let loose upon Azeroths unsuspecting denizens. Yet even in the face of the Hordes unparalleled fury, brave heroes risked everything to rise up in defense of the . . .
Rise of the Horde: Before the savage orcs began their rampage across Azeroth, they were a proud shamanic race native to the world of Draenor. The cunning demon Kiljaeden saw lethal potential in the clan-based orcs, and thus he set about molding them into the Horde—a single, brutal force driven by an all-consuming thirst for destruction. But the foul demonic magic that granted the Horde its immense strength began consuming the orcs from within, ultimately threatening to destroy everything that they once were.
The Last Guardian: Long ago a group of magi known as the Council of Tirisfal was formed to fight a secret war against the sinister demons of the Burning Legion. To this end, the council imbued a single champion with enormous power to act as the worlds guardian. Medivh was one such Guardian of Tirisfal, and he was expected to be the greatest who had ever lived. Yet he was destined to follow a much darker path. From birth a mysterious evil had tainted the core of his being, and his subsequent struggle against the darkness within himself would precipitate the orcish Hordes invasion of Azeroth . . . and change the world forever.
Tides of Darkness: During the First War, the orcish Horde laid waste to the once-great human kingdom of Stormwind. From the ashes of this terrible defeat, however, hope emerged. Anduin Lothar, Champion of Stormwind, rallied the survivors of his ruined homeland and valiantly led them to Lordaeron in the hopes of uniting the human nations into a mighty Alliance that could stand against the Horde and its ruthless new leader, Orgrim Doomhammer. Yet as formidable as Lothar believed the Alliance would be, many humans feared that no force would ever be capable of stopping the Hordes merciless onslaught.
Beyond the Dark Portal: In the aftermath of the Second War between orcs and humans, the Dark Portal, a gateway connecting Azeroth to Draenor, was destroyed. The orcs, however, did not abandon their lust for war. Led by the mysterious orc shaman Nerzhul, a fresh wave of Horde fighters flooded into Azeroth. Even more unsettling was that small bands of orcs intent on something other than mere conquest began scouring Azeroth for powerful artifacts desired by their sinister leader. To counter the Hordes dark schemes, only one option remained for the Alliance: a suicide mission into the orcs ruined homeworld of Draenor.
Now in one epic volume for World of Warcraft's 11 million-plus players, four original novels that chronicle pivotal moments in Warcraft's history!

Where the EU stands on reducing administrative burdens Arna fhoilsiú an : 29/02/2012, Nuashonrú is déanaí: 01/03/2012
President Barroso welcomed the best practice report on administrative burden reduction and called on Member States to learn from each other.
Recent measures reducing accounting red tape for more than 5 million small companies gave a further boost towards achieving the target of reducing administrative burdens by 25 % by 2012.

The Commission has already proposed measures that reduce administrative burdens by up to 33 % or more than EUR 40 bn. Out of this, Council and Parliament have so far adopted measures amounting to a reduction of 22 %.
Examples of measures already adopted by the Council and the Parliament, based on a Commission proposal
With billions of VAT invoices annually in Europe, the switch to a fully electronic VAT invoicing system will save much time and money for more than 22 million taxable enterprises. This measure will remove obstacles to company's electronic billing, in particular additional requirements in the Member States to make invoices VAT compliant. The maximum mid-term reduction potential is estimated at EUR 18.4 billion if all businesses send all their invoices electronically. For the more general savings potential of e-invoicing see: IP/10/1645.
The European Parliament and the Council recently agreed on a compromise concerning the Commission's proposal (February 2009) allowing Member States to exempt micro-entities (max. 10 employees) from EU accounting obligations which are more fitted to the situation of bigger companies. The agreed measures will allow more than 5 million small businesses in Europe to benefit from a simple system of financial reporting. Although the compromise falls short of achieving the estimated annual savings of about EUR 6.3 billion of the Commission's original proposal, substantial savings worth several billion euro remain.
Fruit and vegetable producers spend about two hours in labelling and grading a ton of produce. Regulation 1221/2008 replaces 26 marketing standards with a General Marketing Standard. Labels will indicate origin but no longer class, size or variety. This measure can save up to EUR 970 million.

The annual Messiah Oratorio was performed in the civic auditorium early in December before a near capacity audience.
I have written comments about this annual highlight of the Christmas season for many of the 30 or so annual performances, and each year the choir, soloists and orchestra seem to get better.
This year for the first time a performance was given in Emery County. Many of the choir members and soloist live in Emery County, and it was appropriate and fitting that it should have been held in Emery County as well as in Price.
Maestro Russell Wilson, as always, did a very capable job of directing and conducting this very complex masterpiece. It was written in 4 weeks in 1741 and has enjoyed a world popularity as no other Oratorio have seen. There are hundreds of oratorio's out there composed by such musical greats as Mendelsohn, Bach and Mozart but none have seen the popularity of the Messiah.
The coordination with the chorus, soloist, orchestra and the harpsicord, the musical score was executed with perfect timing by Mr. Wilson. One look at the score shows the variety of music dynamics and variations in orchestral structure. No less than seven key signatures were employed by Handel in the Christmas portion of the Messiah which was heard in this performance. The dramatic key of D, and the noble keys D, E flat and B flat were heavily used. This may have influenced the use of these keys by Beethoven and Mozart, composers who came along later.
Musicologists rank Handel slightly below these music greats and some even above on the scale of musical greatness. Handel was a prolific composer who wrote in about every musical form and as frequently happens, one work stands out among all the others, in this case the Messiah.
The usual striking ovation followed the Hallelujah Chorus - the same that King George rose to his feet upon hearing this spectacular finale.
We look forward to this event every year and have never been disappointed.

Safe and Sound
Can Home WiFi Ever Be Secure?
Definitely, but to help ensure the security of your home wireless network, there are some precautions you should take, many of which are available as part of your Cox Internet services. First, let's look at the risks of an unsecured wireless network.
Who Is at Risk?
Without the proper security measures in place, you could be leaving your home WiFi network wide open to unnecessary risks. An "open WiFi network" is wireless Internet access that is not protected by a Username (also known as an SSID) and password (also known as a WPA or WEP key). This means you and your family are vulnerable to the following:
- Anyone in range of your home network can intercept your private information or personal files, leaving you vulnerable to identify theft.
- Attackers can infect your computer with viruses and spyware.
- Others can steal your Internet service, slowing down your connection speed.
- Unauthorized users can perform, and make you appear responsible for, illegal activities through your network.
Is My WiFi Network at Risk?
When a Cox customer's WiFi network is professionally installed by a Cox technician, it is secured with an SSID and WEP or WPA key. All wireless equipment installed by Cox comes equipped with several built-in security features from the manufacturer.
However, if you installed your own WiFi network and did not enable any security features, your network and personal data could be at risk.
Can Cox Help Me Secure My WiFI Network?
We sure can. Home Network Security Check, a free tool provided to Cox High Speed Internet subscribers, is an easy way to make sure your wireless connection is secure and encrypted. If a potential problem is detected, you'll get easy-to-follow instructions on how to secure your network with:
Your own personal network name.
Your own security password to keep your network private.
An easy way to add additional computers and devices securely to your network.

Flights to Münster from Europe
Flights from Münster
As university towns, Muenster and Osnabrueck offer a range of clubs and bars to spend the night. All kinds of music and sounds are presented by famous DJ's from all over Germany. At Muenster harbor visitors can choose between several clubs. Osnabrueck's nightlife spots are spread all over the city. But not only students can enjoy the night here. For those who like it a little bit more quiet: Bars, pubs or taverns are located in both cities and invite tourists to spend a relaxed evening in good company.
Everybody loves German food. And there is a great variety of it in Muenster and Osnabrueck! Both cities are home of traditional German bakeries or breweries. Besides the famous diversity of bread and the really good beer, the Westphalian cuisine is down to earth and rustic. Famous regional delicacies are Muensterland ragout or peppered beef stew. An addition to the regional cuisine, visitors of Muenster and Osnabrück can dine at several other locations such as Italian, Turkish or Greek restaurants.
Both cities, Muenster and Osnabrueck, have great shopping opportunities. Besides the well-known brand shops visitors can find small boutiques and stores offering regional fashion or local groceries. Muenster with its small alleys and its historical surrounding creates a unique shopping experience. Osnabrueck attracts its visitors with modern buildings and pleasant shopping malls. During the day tourists have the possibility to get from one city to the other by bus or train or even take a tour to the near located Netherlands for a shopping-trip.
Muenster strikes with an old fashioned carriage drive through the old part of the city. On the journey visitors will receive a lot of information about the town's history and be well entertained. Since Muenster is known as the city of bicycles, tourists can explore Muenster's city area not only by carriage but also by bike. Many of the important tourist places of Muenster like the Krameramtshaus, the modern municipal library or the St. Clemens' and the Dominican church can be easily reached from the Prinzipalmarkt by bike.
The Muenster harbor-festival is taking place at the beginning of June and welcomes thousands of visitors and generates lots of excitement. Many national stars and acts perform on three separate stages around the harbor area during these days. Moreover Stand-up surfing or paddle board contests are taking place. Many restaurants are located at Muenster harbor and serve their guests all kinds of German specialties. At night several bars and clubs are continuing the entertainment program. It is this vivid atmosphere that makes this event so special and shows off the modern and creative side of Muenster.

Chemistry Programs
Natural Sciences Major
Natural sciences is Xavier University's preparation for students who wish to pursue a career in medicine, dentistry or other health sciences. The program emphasizes those sciences, namely biology, chemistry and physics, required for admission into professional schools.
Xavier's natural sciences majors, upon graduation, are equipped with a scientific background necessary for subsequent studies in medicine, dentistry, or in similar professions, and have a solid foundation in the liberal arts. Committees on admission at professional schools leave no doubt that they regard an education in the liberal arts as one of the most important factors in forming an effective and capable professional in health care.
To major in natural sciences, 20 semester hours of biology, including zoology, physiology, embryology and genetics; 21 semester hours of chemistry, including general, organic and physical; and 8 semester hours of physics are required. An additional 10 semester hours in a science concentration must also be completed. To strengthen and broaden the background of all Xavier students, a liberal arts core curriculum consisting of courses in history, literature, foreign language, fine arts, mathematics, philosophy, social science and theology is also required.
- The recommended course sequence can be found here.
Upon successful completion of the program, students receive a Bachelor of Science in natural sciences. Those students wishing to pursue administration employment in the health care field may wish to inquire about Xavier's graduate program in Health Services Administration (GPHSA) program.
Natural Sciences Minor
The minor in natural sciences is designed for undergraduate students who wish to complete science courses general required of applicants to medical school while completing a bachelor's degree in a non-science major.
- Thirty-five hours of science courses are required for the minor, including BIOL 160, 161, 162, 163, CHEM 160, 161, 162, 162, 240, 241, 242, 243 and PHYS 160, 161, 162, 163.
- A 2.000 cumulative average must be attained in these courses.

Define various discount settings
- Create discount categories for items
- Give discounts to single customers or customer groups*
Define discounts for customers and customer groups*
You can easily assign special attributes to single customers and customer groups. For example, a discount attribute with the value 7.5 specifies a special discount of 7.5% for a customer group. If an attribute named discount also exists directly for this customer, it takes priority over the group attribute. This percentage will subsequently be deducted from the total amount in the shopping cart.
Discount categories of items
You can also provide single items or whole item groups with discounts - you can offer these discount items to certain customer groups or to all customers.
Discount activities such as introductory prices, sale prices or warehouse clearance can be realized easily and efficiently. You can promptly react to discount activities of your competitors.
Define customer groups
The convenient customer administration offers you as the eShop operator many options:
e.g., single customers can be looked up according to zip code area.
You can divide your customers into self-defined groups, e.g. regular customers or club customers. All customer data can also be exported into or imported from other programs.

Round 1 of One Crafty Contest!
Here's what our fabulous contestants did with BEADS.
Besides a short-lived hobby of beaded jewelry making, I don't have much experience with bead crafts. So I stuck to what I do know: Crocheting! I found 1″ oval wood beads that looked a lot like olives. Olives are very symbolic in that they represent the idea of peace, prosperity and love. After I crocheted around the bead, I thought it would be perfect to use the top of the bead hole for a little love note… a reason why "Olive You!" This would be a great gift for someone you love (who also loves olives!), but would also make a nice centerpiece at a martini party :o)
ENTRY C: Beaded Family Tree
The beads are genuine garnet (for January), amethyst (February), peridot (August), and citrine (November). Because diamonds and rubies are out of the budget, I did some research on alternate stones, and found that carnelian sometimes represents July and white quartz represents April. With everyone finally represented, I formed the tree roots around a rock, then sculpted the trunk and branches from copper and brass wire. Then I beaded and arranged each branch. The end result is something that embodies both roots and growth, which is the perfect message for the beginning of a new life together!
Inspired by Ralph Lauren's collection for summer, this wrap jewelry gives you the look for less! Both were made in about and hour and were ready to wear…. The only materials needed for this project are lightweight crochet thread, BEADS, and something fun to watch on TV while you work! I can't wait to give all the details on how you can make this for yourself too!
ENTRY F: Ombre Beaded Frame
I'm so excited to be in this contest, and so excited for the way my project came out, especially after having no clue what to do for a few days! I created an ombre picture frame by painting wood beads in 5 shades of blue and gluing them to a plain wood frame that I'd painted white. Then to fill in the little bit of space left around the edges, I trimmed it with strips of burlap that I ruffled a little as I glued it around.
ENTRY G: Beaded Tutu Bedskirt
ENTRY H: Beaded Chalkboard Wine Bottle
I often use beads when making jewelry, but rarely in other crafts, so I wanted to go for something a little different for the One Crafty Contest. Think outside the "bottle", if you will. I had an empty wine bottle just waiting to be crafted upon and decided to embellish it with beads. I thought the vivid colors of turquoise and red would look great against a black background and that chalkboard paint would be perfect. It is great to use on home decor items because you can change it up by simply changing what is written. I hope you love my bead craft. I'd love to have your vote!!!
ENTRY I: Beaded Chandelier
When I found out that our project was beads this week I knew exactly what I wanted to make. I had just seen pictures of a family friends wedding where they used a chandelier as decoration. Their chandelier was similar to the one I made but without the lamp shade and cute ruffle. After asking If I could come take a look at the chandelier I knew I could make one on my own and wanted one for my daughters room. This chandelier is made from a lamp shade found at Deseret Industries (pretty much a Goodwill) and fabric I found at a garage sale. The beads are from one of those beaded doorway curtains we all used to love when we were a kid! This project was so simple and easy to make! I can't wait to post the tutorial on my blog after the judging!
ENTRY J: Fabric and Bead Necklace
First of all, I wanted say a special thanks to Amy for putting on this fabulous contest! It's always fun to challenge yourself and see what all of the other contestants come up with! When I first heard about the challenge, I dug out my old bead collection and started looking for some inspiration. I came up with this beautiful piece of fabric that was left over from a previous project and found some beads that complemented the vibrant accent colors. Who doesn't love some tangerine tango this year? But like all of my projects, they tend to evolve through the creative process and I ended up using more cool colors for this project. I used the fabric to make the three flowers and then paired it with ocean blue and gray beads. I love how it turned out and the bright colors are perfect for the summer months ahead. Can't wait!
ENTRY K: Twine & Bead Wrapped Jars
I love the look of wrapped jars and bottles, especially with jute twine. Because this round calledfor the use of beads, I thought it would be fun to incorporate some red, white,and blue beads into wrapped twine jars. These Twine & Bead Wrapped Patriotic Jars would make a perfectaddition to any Fourth of July or Red, White, and Blue themed birthday partytable as centerpieces or utensil containers!
ENTRY L: Jewelry Holder
I made this Jewelry Holder from a wood 'frame' I bought at Michael's. I spray painted some polyester screen fabric (from Home Depot) white then used lace fabric as a stencil on top of it & spray painted it with Nutmeg. I also spray painted the wood frame with Nutmeg. I attached the painted/stenciled screen to the back of the frame with a staple gun & trimmed it. I used white puffy paint to draw the floral details on the frame & glued individual pearls/iridescent/white beads & silver bugle beads to accent the floral details. I glued large pearls around the frame opening & glued a large flat back white/iridescent bead in the center of the fleur de lis detail at the top/bottom of the frame & surrounded them with glitter glue & pearls/iridescent beads. I attached an ecru satin ribbon hanger to the back of the frame with a staple gun & added the satin ribbon bows to the hanger & the bottom of the frame to finish it. Earring posts & hooks fit through thestenciled screen fabric & necklaces & bracelets can be hung on/through the 'loops' of the frame. The frame size (not including hanger) is 22″ tall by 16 1/2″ wide.
ENTRY M: Beaded Headband
I chose to make a beaded headband because I really like the idea of making accessories. I have seen lots of tutorials for fabric headbands but not too many for beaded headbands. I chose my favorite color, aqua, and made a simple yet elegant headband that {I think} is the perfect accessory for that special date-night outfit or for a night out with your girlfriends. I used a clear stretchy elastic cord to string the beads and tied a knot at each end so the beads would not slip. I tied each end of the clear elastic to a hair rubber band to complete the headband. This is a simple project that adds the perfect touch to an outfit. The best thing is that you can customize it to match any outfit in your closet!
ENTRY N: Beaded Rainbow
I love color and I love the rainbow because it puts all the colors together so I don't have to choose a favorite! I am currently decorating my daughter's room in rainbows and I was excited to create this stitched, beaded rainbow for her!
ENTRY O: Wire Cuff Bracelet
I couldn't have been more excited when I found out the first challenge was beads. I decided I wanted to make a piece of jewelry that was going to be something that makes a bold statement and is versatile. This is a cuff bracelet that you can make yourself, and is affordable requiring minimal materials. It is a piece of jewelry that you can either dress up or down, depending on the occasion. The turquoise chips are one of my favorite colors and remind me of the ocean. They came from an old necklace that I no longer was getting much use out of, and I knew they would be perfect for this first challenge. I'm all about reusing something that you already have to create something better. So, whether you pair the cuff bracelet with your favorite jeans or your little black dress, this will quickly become your "go to" piece of jewelry.
ENTRY P: Pottery Barn Inspired Chandelier
ENTRY Q: Beaded and Embroidered Storage Jars
ENTRY R: Aqua & Pearl Jewelry Set
This little ditty is one of a kind! It was inspired by a piece I spotted in a magazine but didn't want to pay $96 for! I chose to make these pieces with aqua colored glass beads & mother of pearl shell beads. The set really stands out on black, or has a more subtle look when worn on white! The necklace is a longer style that is so much FUN to wear! I wanted to add some flare so I offset the pattern of the aqua beads with three pearly beads on one side. The cluster pendants are the funnest part of the necklace & they make a beautiful focal point! The earrings were whipped up to match the necklace & were fashioned the same way – with silver wire & crimps. All together, it's a winning combo that I LOVE to wear – epecially in the summer!
ENTRY S: Beaded Lantern
Using a lamp I found on clearance I knew it would be a big impact on the piece with a coat of spray paint and some pearl beads. I did two coats of spray paint to the piece, and then adorned it with lots of strands of beads for its finishing look. The lantern is energized by the sun, so no batteries needed! It's the perfect piece to add to any front porch, or patio!

- Description
- Reviews
Proudly display this hand-carved executive desktop model of the SR-71 Blackbird, a U.S. Air Force reconnaissance jet. The plaque on the wooden display stand of the SR-71 Blackbird Executive Display Model is signed by test pilot Robert J. "Bob" Gilliland who achieved Mach 1.5 and an altitude of 50,000 feet on his first test flight of the SR-71 Blackbird on December 22, 1964. This first flight of the SR-71 Blackbird was in Palmdale, California, where it was flown for 1 hour over 1000 mph. Gilliland was the first and principle test pilot for the SR-71 Blackbird aircraft series. As the SR-71 Blackbird program continued to grow, Gilliland logged more experimental supersonic flight test-time above Mach 2 and Mach 3 than any other pilot. The Society of Experimental Test Pilots awarded the Knicheloe Award to Bob in 1964 for his work on these supersonic secret planes. An exceptional gift for CEOs, senior managers, pilots or aviation enthusiasts, this highly collectible and autographed replica model of the SR-71 Blackbird Executive Display jet is hand crafted of solid mahogany. Scale 1:63. Ages 14 and up. 20.75"l. x 11.5"w. x 11"h.
Museum Provenance
No reconnaissance aircraft in history has operated globally in more hostile airspace or with such complete impunity than the SR-71 Blackbird, the world's fastest jet-propelled aircraft. The Blackbird's performance and operational achievements placed it at the pinnacle of aviation technology developments during the Cold War. On March 6, 1990, a SR-71 Blackbird was turned over to the Smithsonian after setting a speed record flying from Los Angeles to Washington, D. C.

Nestled against the Columbia River, the Gorge Amphitheater in George, Washington, is known for being one of the most picturesque concert venues in the United States. Attending an event there is a breathtaking experience, making the Sasquatch Music Festival something that can't be missed. The yearly gathering, held toward the end of May, brings together some of the biggest names in indie rock, and landing some Sasquatch Music Festival tickets is any music lover's dream.
The festival was started in 2002 and its first year attracted a very limited slate of performers. Though it got some big names like Ben Harper and Jack Johnson, it only included seven acts and lasted just one day. However, that would soon change. By 2006, the line up had greatly expanded and the festival grew to a weekend-long event. That year featured the likes of The Decemberists, Death Cab for Cutie and Sufjan Stevens - all of whom are icons in the indie music scene.
Over the years, the Sasquatch Music Festival has also broadened its appeal. Though it still retains its indie-heavy slate it also has grown to include acts of several different genres including hard rockers Jane's Addiction and Foo Fighters as well as DJs Skrillex and Ratatat.

Whether you're a seasoned technician, someone new to the beat, or simply an evolving chef with a little DIY know-how under your belt, it's always important to acquaint yourself with the parts, controls, and components working behind the scenes. When it comes to refrigeration equipment, one such important piece is the refrigeration pressure controls. These bad boys help maintain and regulate internal pressures, which in turn is what cultivates that cool atmosphere you're aiming for. When a pressure control malfunctions or stops working, your fridge or freezer is essentially dead in the water. That's why it never hurts to have an extra on hand; ready to go just in case!

I liked NEO Online, it wasn't perfect, and some of the quests at the start were a little too hard. But, it did have a few things I liked, such as: a merchant that would only appear at certain times, usually at night. Eggs, and possibly some other stuff that you could break that would give you an item drop of some sort.
It's too bad no one ever made a private server for the game!

Shit or not, once you learned how to get good the game was hype as shit.
Notable games for me would be these though.
YouTube Video
Not sure what it was about Cardmon Hero that got me so freaking hooked. Played that game almost every day from start to finish. Was so sad when it got closed.
YouTube Video
The original Twelve sky had me hooked since I watched the original trailer and read the features and shit then played in the original closed beta. Played on and off for years and was my go to game whenever I had no other MMOs to play. Was so sad to hear it being shut down but was happy for the second one to be getting an english release! Then that one turned into shit fairly quickly since Aeria is full retard when it comes to handling their shit.
YouTube Video
And of course, motherflippin' DFO. The one game I was so freaking sad got shut down even though I had such long periods of time between times I'd actually play. Friend of mine made this video to record some pretty funny rage. I'm actually one of the people talking in the video, guess who I am. (Hint. I'm the one who mentioned the bit about yugioh cards and sellin' them.)
just some images from Google..
awesome game gone down the drains

YIELD: Serves 6
- 5 strips lean bacon, finely chopped
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 medium onions, finely chopped
- 1 medium carrot, finely chopped
- 2 pounds very lean ground beef sirloin
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup finely ground fresh bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 tablespoon bottled horseradish, well drained
- 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 2 tablespoons coarse salt
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon finely minced fresh thyme (or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme)
- 2 to 3 cups croutons
- 10 whole, unpeeled, garlic cloves
- 4 bay leaves
- 1 sprig fresh thyme
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Place the bacon in a medium sauté pan over medium-low heat. Sauté the bacon for about 5 minutes, or until it has begun to crisp and most of the fat has rendered out. Add the garlic, onion, and carrot and continue to sauté for about 4 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft and the onions are translucent but have not taken on any color. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the vegetables to cool (see Note).
Place the ground sirloin into a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs and milk and, using your hands, work the liquid into the meat. Add the bread crumbs and continue to work the liquid and crumbs into the meat. Add the cooled vegetables, mustard, barbecue sauce, and horseradish along with 1/4 cup of the parsley, salt, pepper, and thyme. Using your hands, gently work all of the ingredients into the meat until well combined.
Place one-half of the croutons into a shallow baking dish at least 14 inches long.
Transfer the meatloaf mixture onto a clean, flat surface and, again, using your hands, shape it into a loaf about 3 1/4 inches wide X 2 1/2 inches high X 12 inches long (or into a round, breadlike form, a letter of the alphabet, an oval, or into several small loaves). Press the remaining croutons into the loaf, making sure that they are partially pressed down into it.
Gently press the unpeeled garlic cloves into the top of the meatloaf. Carefully lay the loaf on top of the croutons in the baking dish (you might need to use a couple of spatulas to facilitate this), reforming the shape with your hands, if necessary. Pierce the meatloaf with the bay leaves and thyme sprig. Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reads 165 degrees on an instant-read thermometer and the top is nicely browned.
Remove the pan from the oven. Allow the meatloaf to rest for about 5 minutes before transferring it to a serving platter. Remove the bay leaves and thyme sprig and sprinkle the remaining parsley over the top of the loaf and around the platter. Cut crosswise into 1-inch, or thicker, slices and serve.
Note: I prefer to slightly precook any vegetables that I will be adding to a meatloaf so that they can more readily release all of their flavor into the loaf as it bakes. You can also double the amounts of vegetables and reserve half of them to spoon around the meatloaf before serving.

Quote: The West Side Stadium Would Have Been Perfect For The Winter Classic
Too bad that James Dolan fought so hard to help kill the Jets' plans to build a stadium on the West Side. It might keep his hockey team from hosting a signature event for years to come.

No baby clues here -- Jennifer Love Hewitt is mellow in yellow!
With her engagement ring shining, the expecting star looked lovely in a full-length canary yellow gown outside of her baby shower at the Hotel Bel Air in Los Angeles on Saturday.
The bash was "a gender neutral party with a black and yellow theme," sources tell Us Magazine about the bash, which was attended by about 30 people.
Hewitt's fiance and "The Client List" costar Brian Hallisay reportedly attended the soiree, where the couple were gifted all gender-neutral presents as well.
It's unclear if the two want to keep their baby's sex a secret from the general public or if they just don't know it yet either.
Hewitt and Hallisay are expecting their first child together later this year.
Check out more of her pregnancy style in the gallery above!

Am I the only person concern with all these low scores ?
Am I the only person concern with all these low scores ?
Low scores?
Be VERY AFRIDI!!
Remember this isn't IPL. Its the WC and the level of cricket higher then IPL. So, you wouldn't be seeing a run fest like IPL here.
Higher quality bowlers but also higher quality batsmen. The larger issue is the quality of the pitches.
To answer the OP, I have no issue. As long as the pitches are consistant for the duration of the match and plays the same for both sides I have no problem whatsoever. Nobody wants to see 200 play 88 allout but a match that goes down to the last ball where a team is chasing 110 will be just as tense as one where a side is chasing 190 really.
There's no problem with low scoring games - my concern is pitches where joke bowlers can win games. The recent Windies-Zimbabwe series had dreadful pitches.

What concerns me more is our ability to play spin well, which has been shown up at times in ODI cricket. Maybe the T20 format will ensure that players aren't caught in two minds.
Don't worry me at all, good to see the bowlers fighting back.
I actually disagree with the idea that low scores are ok as long as the games are competitive. At the end of the day t20 cricket is about hitting sixes and if we dont see that here crowds are going to be hugely disappointed and games are going to be boring. I am not saying we need 200+ scores but teams scoring 120 and winning is not really what anyone wants to see.
Tendulkar = the most overated player EVER!!
Beckham = the most overated footballer EVER!!
Vassell = the biggest disgrace since rikki clarke!!
I think looking at the games in Delhi during the CL showed how the pitch can really take away from the spectacle. If you get ordinary pitches, it turns a 20 over game into a very close cousin to the middle overs of one day cricket, which T20 was supposed to avoid. Pushing your way up to 120 or so isn't a spectacle.

In June: Film loans around the world
For decades we have been a source of archival film prints to be projected at (respected, well-trained) repertory theaters and film festivals around the world. As more and more screens turn to digital-only projection, these film prints become the main attraction of rare events as our museum artifacts are exhibited in only the best of film projection venues.
2013 has been no exception – below is a highlight of some of the films we'll be providing to other exhibition spaces this month:
The Cinefamily
On June 5, The Cinefamily will be continuing its monthly series "The Silent Treatment" with a preservation from George Eastman House. BARBED WIRE (1927) is a World War I romance with Pola Negri as the French farm girl and Clive Brook as the German P.O.W. Pola Negri was one of the great beauties of the silent cinema. Born in Poland, she worked in German film until she and her director, Ernst Lubitsch, were brought to Hollywood.
She continued to make films in America during the silent era and reportedly had relationships with Valentino and Chaplin, but her thick accent did not translate well to the talkies, especially not the siren roles she had been cast in for over a decade. "The Silent Treatment" is curated by Selznick graduate Brandee Cox and you can find more information about it here.
Our friends at the Museum of Modern Art are organizing a film series titled "Allan Dwan and the Rise and Decline of the Hollywood Studios." It is impossible to mount a complete retrospective of this overlooked director (over a 50-year career he directed more than 400 films), but MoMA has put together a great series that runs over a month from June 5 to July 8. We are providing three prints for the series: DAVID HARUM (June 9 and 10), FRONTIER MARSHAL (June 15 and 18), and STAGE STRUCK (June 18 and 19). Both DAVID HARUM and STAGE STRUCK are 35mm preservations from nitrate held at George Eastman House, and STAGE STRUCK includes a two-color Technicolor sequence where Gloria Swanson dreams of herself as a famous actress. Imagine! Allan Dwan was dubbed "The Last Pioneer" by Peter Bogdanovich and you can see all the details of MoMA's series here.
British Film Institute
There has been a lot of interest in the British Film Institute's preservation of nine silent Alfred Hitchcock films ("The Hitchcock 9"). The last of these, BLACKMAIL (1929), was also the first of Hitch's (and Britain's) sound films, as it was created both with and without a soundtrack during Britain's changeover period. Even at this early point, Hitch was doing genius work with sound, as evidenced by this very subjective scene:
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is dedicating a night to both versions as a double feature and has asked us to provide the sound version. The screening will take place June 18 at the Goldwyn Theater on Wilshire (which I was lucky enough to visit in April) and the website for the event is here.
Il Cinema Ritrovato
Il Cinema Ritrovato (The Rediscovered Cinema) film festival has been taking place in Bologna, Italy for over 25 years now, and we have often provided prints for their screenings. This year, attendees will get a special treat as they watch a double feature of Cecil B. DeMille's CARMEN (1915) and Charlie Chaplin's A BURLESQUE ON CARMEN (1915) in the Piazza Maggiore, a 13th-Century public square in the heart of the city. Not only will the attendees be able to see the films in this gorgeous venue (again, a place I've been lucky enough to see), but the musical accompaniment for these silent films will be provided live by the Orchestra del Teatro Comunale di Bologna. They should plan for a wonderful evening and a beautiful print of CARMEN that faithfully recreates the tinting found on the original nitrate print donated to George Eastman House by Cecil B. DeMille himself. More information on Il Cinema Ritrovato here.
In addition to these screenings, we will be contributing to museum exhibits by providing footage that will play throughout the day in museums wihtout film projection facilities. First, the Spessart Museum will be displaying the 1916 version of SNOW WHITE. Housed in a 14th-Century castle in the town of Lohr am Main, the museum is dedicated to the concept of "Mensch und Wald" (Man and Forest), as it sits in an area representative of the historical development of woodland in Germany. The museum is interested in this film because, according to its website, "In 1986…Dr. Karlheinz Bartels…was able to prove conclusively, on the basis of facts provided by fabular science that Snow White came from Lohr." I'm not sure what "fabular science" entails, but the museum and the castle sound like a lot of fun. Read more about it here.
And much, much closer to home, the Strong National Museum of Play is featuring actual footage of Coney Island from film in the George Eastman House collection for its new exhibit "Boardwalk Arcade." The footage will provide context for the recreation of turn-of-the-century boardwalk with games and attractions typical to the attractions up and down the East Coast. Opening weekend for the exhibit is July 6 and 7. Read about it here.
While these films are being sent around the world, make sure to take advantage of our own Dryden film series in June, including the Revisionist Sherlock Holmes series and – my favorite – To the Moon in June!
