4' Wide Trilogy Staircase Bookshelf
by Smart Furniture
At A Glance:
Similar to our bestselling 6' Wide Trilogy Shelf, this 4' Trilogy shelf fits in places other shelves can't. The Trilogy shelf is a perfect example of staircase furniture. Its angled form makes it ideal for placement underneath a stairway.
What's To Like:
- Assembly of the Trilogy Shelf is just about the easiest you'll ever experience. No tools needed; all you need is a space on your floor to fit the shelves together like a puzzle (with step-by-step instructions).
- Because it is a customizable shelf, it can be modified and reconfigured to work anywhere else in your home.
- Each individual shelving space is capable of holding up to 75 pounds without bowing. That's a crazy-strong shelf!
What's Not to Like:
If you need to store binders, the cubbies of the Trilogy Shelf will be too small.
The Bottom Line:
Smart Shelves are kind of like building blocks. They can be customized in height to the nearest 6" and in length to the nearest foot. That modularity alone makes the Trilogy Shelf a bookshelf worth buying - and it's aesthetically pleasing to boot!
- Overall: 48" h x 48" w x 9.5" d
- All Smart Shelves are made of medium density fiberboard with a melamine laminate shell
- Scratch, dent, and water resistant
- Made in USA
- Limited lifetime warranty included

In addition to designing Smart Shelves and founding Smart Furniture, Stephen Culp is an alumnus of the Peace Corps, an active participant of the non-profit organization Chattanooga STAND, and a Marshall Fellow.
At Smart Furniture, we believe that customer service is what sets us apart. For those who know Stephen, it's not difficult to see why. Our customer-centric way of doing business can be traced directly back to Stephen's civically-oriented way of living. You can read Stephen's complete bio to learn more about his accomplishments (and non-accomplishments - see final paragraph of bio for a laugh).
About The Manufacturer
Culp realized that people needed an easily adaptable furniture system that allowed them to reconfigure spaces to their changing needs. In a small workshop in a professor's garage, he set out to create a furniture system that was both simple to assemble and easy to reconfigure as needed. He succeeded and received a patent on his Signature Line system.
By 1998, Smart Furniture was up and running in Palo Alto, California. Smart Furniture relocated to Chattanooga, Tennessee in 2001, where Culp expanded the company and founded a local manufacturing, warehouse, and shipment distribution system for the company's Signature Line products.
Along the way, Culp's experience in the Peace Corps provided a founding principle of Smart Furniture: Help people help themselves. This simple but effective principle was the basis for a business model he called Design on Demand. Smart Furniture's Design on Demand model was created to give both residential and business customers the opportunity to design their own spaces and customize furniture products to their needs, quickly and easily.
The next step was to make the model come alive through technology on our website, Smartfurniture.com. Our website's designer tool, free 3-D renderings, and integrated Google Sketchup technologies combined empower our customers to design, order, and receive everything from individual units to interior layouts, quickly and easily.
The result was a revolutionary solution incorporating state-of-the-art design, e-commerce and fulfillment capabilities that can deliver orders from concept to customer within a week. Such a short turnaround time is unheard of in the furniture industry.

Back history
In effect, council has in the past delegated the choice of chair to the 'school community', but not without playing a significant role in the nature of the choice.
When Mostafavi was elected, the three final candidates were selected by council with agreed terms and conditions, so that the AA could not be held over a barrel by someone being elected and then writing their own contract.Will council be happy with the current situation? Not necessarily.
Apart from anything else, the 60 per cent poll was less than impressive and might put it into the council's mind to avoid the painful and disruptive process. The current problems stem from the previous failure of council to do anything about third terms, which are probably a mistake. Bedford Square should be more presidential in a US sense.
Meanwhile the phones are ringing all over London as well-meaning people come to terms with the democratic process AA-style. It appears that not enough was done to prepare for the special meeting where Mostafavi put his case, disrupted as that was by a student with a personal grievance which could in no way be resolved at the meeting. It was all very reminiscent of the bad old days, except that there is no financial crisis. In that respect at least, the AA has grown up.

Pink wines go with dinner, prep palates for new flavors
By Chuck Furuya
Let's give a big shout-out for pink wines. Thankfully, roses are a fast-growing segment of the wine world. A couple of reasons why: There's a growing number of terrific renditions readily available.
Family vineyard possession lets wineries keep price low
By Chuck Furuya
We are always on the hunt for really good wines that offer great value. These are much harder to come by than most would think. Finding something interesting at $12 a bottle, for instance, is a real challenge.
As cooler weather nears, try wine that's pink or red
By Chuck Furuya
We are heading into the fall, which hopefully means cooler, less humid weather. To hedge my bets, here are recommendations for wines suited to those conditions.
Warmer weather demands light, thirst-quenching wines
By Chuck Furuya
I don't think it's an overstatement to say this summer is sizzling! There have been a couple of days when the heat, humidity and lack of tradewinds have been almost unbearable. This weather has altered my wine preferences, and I'm now in search of lighter, fresher, thirst-quenching wines, which I serve much cooler than I normally would.

Pinot noir grape varieties can offer remarkable value
By Chuck Furuya
Over the years, the pinot noir grape variety has garnered quite a reputation and following in Burgundy, France, and is now booming in both California and Oregon as well. What most wine lovers do not know, however, is that pinot noir is also the patriarch to a family of other pinot grape varieties.
Family-owned vineyards can signal quality wines
By Chuck Furuya
Selecting a wine can be an overwhelming process for many wine drinkers faced with the multitude of bottles and labels lined up on shelves. I've heard countless times that, in the face of confusion, people will select a wine based not just on sale prices, but even pretty packaging or an eye-catching label.
Food-friendly Beaujolais ideal for Valentine's meal
By Chuck Furuya
For a change of pace, I thought I'd recommend some Beaujolais for Valentine's Day this year. Beaujolais is a region in France at the southern tip of Burgundy, home of the gamay noir grape variety.
Top-notch German wines age well if stored properly
By Chuck Furuya
The other night, a customer at Hiroshi Eurasion Tapas asked me what wine they should "put away" for their kids until adulthood. I get asked this question frequently, and the answer differs based on the number of years of cellaring and, more important, the budget per bottle.

One of the most influential "wine minds" of our time is Kermit Lynch, a prominent importer based in Berkeley, Calif. Lynch began his career with a small specialty shop, Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant.
Underappreciated rieslings shine in certain situations
By Chuck Furuya
When I mention the word riesling, I'm often met with odd expressions. Sadly, over the years riesling has been categorized in what a friend called the "ugly duckling" section, meaning it is highly underappreciated. But I hope I can convince tasters that it can be a real swan.
Choose your wine wisely for frothy Valentine's Day
By Chuck Furuya
The Valentine's Day holiday raises the questions of where to eat and what to drink. Selecting a restaurant is one thing. But contemplating what wine to share with your loved one can be another way to enjoy the experience together, especially if you are having wine at home. Here are some suggestions.
Pre-paired for New Year's
By Chuck Furuya
Few occasions carry as much symbolism as the exit of an old year and the dawning of the new one. It's a time for reflection of what was and for welcoming all that will come with customs to draw good luck and prosperity.
Value-priced wines deliver ample flavor for festivities
By Chuck Furuya
Yes, the holiday season — with its many office parties and family get-togethers — is already upon us. Here are some wine recommendations to bring even more cheer to the festivities.
California zinfandels offer many delicious possibilities
By Chuck Furuya
Wine lovers have been enjoying California zinfandel for decades. This grape variety had quite a following well before the chardonnay and cabernet booms really mushroomed.
Old vines often produce unique, interesting wines
By Chuck Furuya
I have been intrigued with wines produced from older vines. While vine age does not necessarily translate into wine quality, old vines in the right locations and farmed well can add nuance, intricacy and unique character to the finished wine.
Soil type is the big factor in choosing wine by 'terroir'
By Chuck Furuya
One fascinating trait of classic wines from the Old World is "somewhere-ness." The French refer to this quality as "terroir."
Chilled vermentino adapts well to isles' warm weather
By Chuck Furuya
Those unfamiliar with the white wines of the Mediterranean should consider one standout grape variety: vermentino.
Prosecco hits the spot as weather gets hotter

By Chuck Furuya
Heads up, wine lovers. Two star-studded events are in the works on Maui in the next couple of months.
The art of wine pairing evolves with food trends
By Chuck Furuya
In my days of working in "white tablecloth" fine-dining restaurants such as the Maile, La Mer and Bagwell's 2424, with their classic French-oriented menus, chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon had their golden moments, especially when paired with cream- and butter-infused sauces.

Alcohol level contributes to the 'balance' of a wine
By Chuck Furuya
I was in New York recently, where one of the more controversial topics in the winemaking world reverberates. It centers on high alcohol levels in wine.
Food festivals prove wine pairs well with Asian food
By Chuck Furuya
There has been an upswing of food-and-wine festivals throughout the state. Last month's Hawaii Food & Wine Festival, for instance, organized by local superstar chefs Roy Yamaguchi and Alan Wong, brought to Honolulu top chefs from around the world.
Discerning search turns up values in New World wines
By Chuck Furuya
Finding wines that deliver the biggest bang for the buck is and will always be a challenge. Part of rooting out such value is finding winemakers who have control over the growing of the grapes.
Hidden gem of grenache offers ripe and rustic taste
By Chuck Furuya
Grenache is a grape variety on the cusp of being "discovered" by the general public. At its best, grenache offers lush, ripe, delicious red fruit with a rustic, gamey, peppery edge that keeps the taster engaged from beginning to end.

It is always a learning opportunity to attend a well-thought-out, well-run wine event.
Light wines that harmonize with food are unappreciated
By Chuck Furuya
How does the public learn about wine? While the most obvious answer would seem to be the wine media, what readers tend to forget is that wine publications make larger profits by selling, along with advertising, more copies.
Meal greater than its parts when wine matches entree
By Chuck Furuya
Pairing the right wine with a dish can be quite a revelation. It nurtures the thrill of discovering a complete dining experience.
Bordeaux sites' overseer works for enjoyable wines
By Chuck Furuya
When I was growing up in the wine industry, the world's standard for cabernet-based red wines was those from Bordeaux, France.
Light, fizzy wines do justice to colorful vegetable plate
By Chuck Furuya
At a Hawaii Food & Wine Festival luncheon last fall, chef Ed Kenney featured an array of fresh, locally grown vegetables. Not only was his presentation wonderfully colorful, it deftly conveyed a "farm-to-table" theme.
Explore new tastes in 2012 with inexpensive, tasty wines
By Chuck Furuya
I have heard more than one person say they will look to do things differently in 2012 instead of keeping the status quo.
Welcome 2012 with bubbly, no matter what your budget
By Chuck Furuya
What better way to celebrate New Year's Eve and the prospects for 2012 than with bubbly? Because sparkling wines can be so festive, light and ethereal — full of life and bursting with bubbles on the palate — how can you go wrong?
Picking the right wine helps make any season bright
By Chuck Furuya
Christmas, with all of its festive get-togethers, is right around the corner. Time to get in the spirit, and what better way to set the tone than with wine?
These white wines enhance your meal, save some cash
By Chuck Furuya
Over the past year I have been asked to do a lot of wine presentations. These certainly have been fun, and I've left each with a smile because of the new friendships fostered.
Prime batch of 2009 wines available on isle shelves
By Chuck Furuya
If you have been following the wine media, you know 2009 is a sensational vintage for French wines. I was there with my wife, Cheryle, at harvest, tasting grapes alongside some of our favorite winemakers, with pickers working around us. The superb grape quality created pure excitement. The best wines have sensational physiological ripeness and innate complexity coupled with wonderful balance.
Plentiful wines from 2009 pour value as well as flavor
By Chuck Furuya
In many parts of Europe, 2009 was a special vintage. Not only was quality high, but so was quantity. This is unusual.
Warm weather of summer calls for light, tasty wines
By Chuck Furuya
With summer in full swing, I asked several wine professionals for recommendations appropriate for warm-weather sipping. Here are their replies:

This LG mini will be the solution for your cleaning needs and hassle. It will provide you lasting cleaning performance without the hassle of having to buy additional paper bags. Plus the compact and round design will enrich your convenience and style.
Easy Removable Tank; Easy to Clean
One simple step to separate the dust tank and filter, and easy emptying of dust. You can rinse the dust tank and filter with water, without the hassle of scrubbing.
Ellipse Cyclone System
The elliptical cyclonic system continuously creates strong centrifugal force to effectively separate the dust and the air so that suction power lasts longer. As such, this maintains the actual cleaning ability of the cleaner.
Low maintenance
Being a cyclonic bagless vacuum cleaner that does not need the worries of purchasing additional dust bags, all you need to do is empty the dust tank after cleaning and washing the pre-filter once a month.
Compact Size
LG mini is super light-weight and compact enough to carry around the household for easy cleaning.
Easy Simple Dust Dumping
Dust separation system collects the dust on one side of the dust tank. As the cyclone action sends over the dust to the other side of the dust tank, the air passes through the cone of the mini Ellipse system. Hence, the dust is collected on the one side of the dust tank that all it takes is to make a shake of the wrist to empty the dust and debris.

|Central hemodynamic effects of oxytocin and interaction with magnesium and pregnancy in the isolated perfused rat heart.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 9240588 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|OBJECTIVE: Our purpose was to determine the cardiac effects of oxytocin in the isolated perfused rat heart model and to see whether pregnancy or pharmacologic levels of magnesium modifies the hormone's action. STUDY DESIGN: Hearts were excised from 30 female Sprague-Dawley rats (15 pregnant, 15 nonpregnant) and attached to a Langendorf's apparatus. Heart rate, left ventricular systolic pressure, and contractility were measured. Hearts were exposed serially to 2, 4, and 6 mU/ml concentrations of oxytocin. The experiment was repeated in 15 pregnant animals at a magnesium level of 5 mEq/L. RESULTS: Hearts from pregnant rats had lower heart rates than did hearts from nonpregnant animals. Oxytocin exposure diminished heart rate but increased left ventricular systolic pressure and contractility in a dose-dependent manner. Pregnancy did not alter this response. Magnesium levels of 5 mEq/L reversed the effects of oxytocin on contractility and left ventricular systolic pressure. CONCLUSION: Oxytocin is a negative chronotropic and positive inotropic agent in hearts from pregnant and nonpregnant rats. Magnesium reserves the positive inotropic effects of oxytocin.

Utah football: Reilly not thinking of future just yet
Trevor Reilly said he had dreams of playing in the NFL some day while growing up.
Utah's defensive end, who will play his last collegiate game Saturday, could be one of the few to see those dreams realized.
Reilly, projected to be a second-round draft pick by NFLdraftscout.com, has the makings of being yet another quality pro player produced by the Utes, Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said.
Whittingham envisions Reilly, who leads the team with 86 tackles, continuing to play a hybrid position.
"That's what suits him best and is how we have used him in that capacity," Whittingham said. "We've had several guys like Koa Misi [Miami] and Paul Kruger [Cleveland] that have done that and flourished in the NFL. He is a lot like those guys."
The 6-foot-5, 255-pound Reilly said he hasn't given much thought to a pro career and is focusing on the Colorado game.
"I'd like to go out on top with a win," he said. "You dream about playing in the pros as a kid, but a lot of people dream about being millionaires and it doesn't happen. But I've been blessed with height and can run. It's a meat market, but a lot of times if you can meet their measurements, they will take you."
Untimely injury
Whittingham is one to say he never uses injuries as an excuse for performances, but he did this week when he was asked during the Pac-12 teleconference if the Utes failed to handle the success of beating Stanford properly, leading to Utah's five-game losing streak.
Whittingham disagreed with the notion, instead blaming the hand injury to quarterback Travis Wilson.
"There is something to be said for not losing your quarterback the next week," he said. "That is what that is all about. It took away our momentum. We had a big win against Stanford, the quarterback hurts his hand the next week and we got into a slide and were never able to recover."
The losing streak is the longest of Whittingham's career and the longest since the Utes lost six in a row in 2002.
Of note
Tickets still are available for Saturday's game. ... Saturday's game marks the 60th meeting between the teams, but it is just the third time the teams have met since 1962. ... Utah's 19 seniors will be recognized in a pre-game ceremony. Whittingham said all the seniors are on track to graduate by May. "We're very proud of that," he said. "That is the main reason they are here, to make a future for themselves, and they have all taken care of business."

This seems a useful word, but I can find no authority for
Philaletheia, the disinterested love of scholarly truth, can lead one into some strange places. The connection of the two marginalia is the urge to recover the sense of an ancient text in full and accurately; to probe past the obscurity of poet and translator alike, to what Lycophron's persona thought was to happen in those beds.

Sounds like it should mean 'love of forgetfulness' but Liddell and Scott gives philalethes as 'loving truth'.

LEBANON, Pa.—Two people are behind bars and a third remains at large in connection with a shooting in central Pennsylvania that has left two men dead.
South Lebanon Township police said Tuesday that 34-year-old Rick Lavar Cannon of Harrisburg and 29-year-old Akeita Harden of Lebanon are jailed on charges of criminal homicide, aggravated assault and related charges. Cannon also is facing a drug charge.
Police received a 911 call around 10 a.m. Monday reporting gunshots coming from a home. They arrived to find Marcus Antonio Ortiz and Keith Crawford Jr. mortally wounded. They died at a hospital.
Cannon and Harden were arrested after a foot chase. Authorities are still looking for a third suspect, identified as 36-year-old Eddie Lee Williams Jr. Police say he should be considered armed and dangerous.

From Teresa Dunn,
Mountain Home:
Another Friday night home football game; another disappointment.
Am I disappointed with the officiating? Not really. Officiating "is what it is." The officials make some good calls and miss some that are glaringly obvious from the vantage point of "UP" in the stands.
Am I disappointed with the coaching staff? No, I am not disappointed in them. I may not always agree with the coaches, however, I did not go to school to be a coach. I do not get paid to be a coach. To be honest, given the chance to coach, I would probably find out that I was not very good at it, even though I truly love the game.
Am I disappointed in the players? Absolutely NOT! I was impressed with the improvement they have made and really proud of each of them for fighting hard and not giving up!
Why am I disappointed? Is it disappointment in yet another loss? Yes, there is some disappointment there, but only because of how bad those young men wanted to win. The real disappointment lies with the fans or, more appropriately, "the audience."
Let me set the stage for you.
It's the fourth quarter in a really close game, and the players are exhausted. They have fought hard and if they can just hang on for another 12 minutes, they can win this game.
They turn to the stands and wave their arms up and down asking the fans to get on their feet and make some noise, hoping that the fans will help them get that little extra shot of adrenaline to get them through. The student section is up on their feet. A proud parent, a friend here and there, a fan or two rise to their feet, but most of "the audience" remains seated, maybe politely clapping.
This is the disappointment! These young men needed you and you let them down. It may not seem like much to you, but believe me it was a BIG deal to them. So Saturday morning, when you are rehashing the game and mourning yet another loss, go look in the mirror and ask yourself if you were a fan or just another member of "the audience".
To have a successful football program, the program needs community involvement and fan support. Don't expect them to win games if you are not willing to be there when they need you.
I may not win a lot of friends with my comments, but to the young men of the Bomber Football team, I hope that today I have at least given you a voice.

Building a strong resume at the high school level with his size, shooting touch, and defensive presence, Austin finished his prep career ranked among the top-5 players in the RSCI. Considered a potential one-and-done prospect when he entered the college ranks, a solid, but inconsistent freshman season didn't solidify his stock, and his decision to return to Baylor was made for him after a torn labrum promised to keep him from participating in much of the pre-draft process. Taking a step back in some key areas as a sophomore, while improving in others, Austin's draft resume reads largely the same as it did a year ago, as he finds himself firmly on the first round bubble.
US Presswire
Austin's intrigue as a prospect has long hinged on his extremely rare physical attributes. Measuring 7'1 with a 7'3 wingspan at age 16 in 2010, the Texas native has outstanding size for a center at any level to go along with impressive mobility. In contrast, he weighed in at just 200 pounds when those measurements were taken, and while he was listed at 225 this season and has gotten noticeably stronger in his upper body in recent seasons, he remains extremely skinny for a big man at the professional level.
As of right now, Austin's offensive game largely revolves around the small and occasional flashes he shows, as he's not a particularly efficient or reliable at this point in time, but shows intriguing potential in a number of areas.
After averaging 16.7 points per-40 minutes pace adjusted on 45.9% from the field a year ago, he averaged 16.4 on 44.3% as a sophomore, and didn't make significant strides on this end of the floor. Possessing soft touch inside and the ability to score away from the rim, Austin has a unique offensive skill set for a 7-footer, but struggles at times to finish plays around the basket due to his lack of explosiveness and toughness, and forces some difficult, awkward shots from the inside and outside alikepart of the reason he was the least efficient center among all prospects in the DraftExpress Top-100 rankings.
Inside, he'll show deft touch and a high release point on hook shots with either hand at times, but lacks to lower body strength to establish good post position consistently. While he isn't what you'd describe as a freakish athlete, he's mobile and smooth enough to put the ball on the floor a bit from the midrange, and will even knock down a pull-up jump shot from time to time. Shooting a very solid 45% with his back to the basket according to Synergy Sports Technology, Austin has a promising finesse game on the block, but converting at a 53% clip around the rim, he doesn't deal with contact well and tends to take some difficult, off balance shots from the paint.
Away from the rim, Austin's unique skill level gives him interesting potential as a pick-and-pop option. Almost a quarter or his shots in the half court last season were jump shots, off which he made just 32%. Though his consistency leaves something to be desired, he shoots the ball with solid mechanics from the perimeter and seems to have the potential to draw opposing big men away from the rim at the next level, which could become an important part of his offensive profile at the next level.
US Presswire
Defensively, Austin did make some strides this season,
ranking in the top-15
nationally in blocks per-40 minutes pace adjusted and swatting away more than twice as many shots per-40 minutes pace adjusted than he did as a freshman. His length, mobility and timing have always made him a presence defensively, but he made a more concerted effort to challenge would be scorers inside this season. His improved activity level as a weakside defender came at the expense of his defensive rebounding numbers, which dipped from an average 7.8 per-40 minutes pace adjusted to a very poor 5.1,
tied for the lowest mark
among centers in our top-100.
Austin's length is a plus defensively, but his strength limits his impact on the glass and ability to defend one-on-one. He isn't quick to pursue the ball off the rim, but he shows the mobility necessary to step away from the rim and hold his own from time to time.
Austin put together a very nice NCAA Tournament performance, and while the lack of discernable improvement this season has certainly hurt his perception among scouts, he remains a rare and intriguing talent with his size, skill level, and shot blocking ability, even after revealing that he's blind in one eye. He'll need to improve his efficiency offensively and get significantly stronger to put himself in better position to contribute at the next level in the coming seasons, but will draw interest in the first round and could fit well on a roster that has the luxury of being patient with his long-term development in the next two to three years.
We've taken a more visual look at his strengths and weaknesses thanks to game film from Baylor in the following video scouting report, courtesy of Mike Schmitz.

PLYMOUTH -- The choice was almost too obvious.
And Tuesday at Compuware Arena, it becomes official when the Wings name Henrik Zetterberg as their 36th captain, replacing fellow Swede Nicklas Lidstrom, who retired after last season.
"It's a great choice," Danny Cleary said Tuesday after the second day of training camp. "He would be a unanimous vote in here."
"I think Hank's been groomed to be our captain for many, many years now," Niklas Kronwall said. "Ever since he got in here, he sat beside Stevie (Yzerman) and learned a lot from him. Hank, he's been a captain for many years even though he hasn't had the 'C.' Of course we had Nick but Hank is just as good a leader and he brings it every night. That's what you want from your leader."
"No question, he's going to be a great leader for us," Jonathan Ericsson said.
Zetteberg, who has been wearing an "A" as an alternate captain since 2006, will be just the Wings' third captain since 1986.
He was the odds on favorite after Lidstrom retired after last season.
"I think Hank, the biggest thing for me is that he's so unselfish," Cleary said. "He's such a personable guy. He's a star. He's got great talent on the ice, but he's very respectful off the ice and he's vocal when he needs to be and he leads by example."
This offseason, Wings general manager Ken Holland said the next captain would come from one of last season's alternate captains - Zetterberg, Kronwall or Pavel Datsyuk.
"You need to speak at the right moment and know when to shut up at the right moment," Zetterberg said. "It's not just one guy who's got to do it; everyone has to do it together. You got to sense the feeling around the locker room, how the mood is."
Zetterberg, 32, is well respected in the locker room and fits the mold of previous captains in Detroit, like Lidstrom and Yzerman.
"It's hard to make comparisons when Nick was unique," Cleary said. "Even like Stevie, they led by example on and off the ice with their work ethic and their play. When something needed to be said, they said it. They weren't huge rah-rah type players like (Kris Draper) was. So you have different personalities but certainly they were well-respected.
"I think as a captain, you look for the players to respect you and you lead by example, by working hard and by being an honest player and treating people with respect," Cleary continued. "That's what Stevie did, that's what Nick did and I know Hank will."
The biggest difference between Zetterberg and Lidstrom in the locker room is all about being vocal.
"Z's definitely going to be more vocal than Nick," Jimmy Howard said. "Nick spoke when he needed to and led by example. Z is more vocal throughout the room.
"You can't go wrong with either or," Howard continued. "Nick was probably one of the best ever to play the game at his position and Z has been a leader now for years so I think he's going to transition very easily."
As for his relationship with Wings coach Mike Babcock, the two of them share something in common.
"He and I have a relationship where he doesn't mind getting mad at me and I don't mind getting mad at him," Babcock said. "I don't have any problem with that. He doesn't mind telling me what defense the team needs to do, which I think is very important.
"He doesn't mind standing up for the guys and telling you want he thinks," Babcock continued. "And I think that's so important for us. The other thing is nobody ever wants the team to not be as good on their watch, believe me."
Kronwall and Datsyuk will continue to serve as alternate captains.
For the past several seasons, the Wings have had three alternating captains, rotating it on game day since only two can wear the "A".

RENO (AP) — A status hearing has been postponed for a 24-year-old man accused of killing and dismembering several dogs, leaving a gruesome scene in a Nevada motel room.Jason Brown was scheduled to appear Wednesday in Reno Justice Court on six felony counts of torturing or maiming and killing an animal.A half-dozen animal rights protesters demonstrated outside the courthouse before the hearing was continued. It has yet to be rescheduled.Brown was arrested July 9 after a maid told authorities she found a decapitated dog in a south Reno motel room he was renting. Detectives found four dog heads in a small refrigerator in the room.Brown's lawyer, John Oakes, told the Reno Gazette-Journal last month that Brown has mental health issues and might need a psychiatric evaluation before he goes to trial.

The trip to burnside manor was fortunately uneventful by Umbralume standards - only a few dozen Zombies, Wolves, and Zombie Wolves to fight or evade on the way over, and most of the Zombies in the town were easily avoided. The trip took two days, both nights of which some of the group may have been able to hear the otherwise fierce Drider woman softly crying in her sleep.
The mansion itself was thankfully gated and somewhat away from the rest of the town. With the gates closed behind them and the distance between the mansion and the town proper, it would probably be many hours, if not a day or two, before the zombies outside the gates managed to stumble their way inside, thankfully. Granted, it was probable there were already zombies within the mansion and ground, and given the late Lord Burnside's hobbies, quite probable the interior of the mansion might have other, nastier, things waiting.
The mansion itself was a fancy, two story, affair and largely intact - there were no obvious broken windows or walls and other than general neglect, no signs to show that the mansion, like the town, had recently suffered a zombie apocalypse.
The apparent points of ingress for the group were the large double doors in front, which may or may not have been locked or barred from within, and a few large windows for dynamic entry.

I searched but I couldnt find out the lengh of the cables that are included with the monitor, the vga and usb for the TS. The computer will be going in the trunk in my Maxima and I just need to see which lengh cables I should go with. I should need around 15ft. I remember reading somewhere that the Lilliput cables are around 5ft but I cant find it again so I just need to make sure. If anyone has some pics too, that would be nice. Thanks.

Michigan State Spartans forward Matt Costello.
- Filed Under
Matt Costello is back practicing for No. 5 Michigan State but will not play in Saturday's game against New Orleans.
Costello has been out since earlier this month because of mono and Tom Izzo said following Friday's practice that he's "very question mark" for the start of Big Ten play next week.
"One thing we can't do is rush this," Izzo said. "He practiced a little more today but if we rush it and he gets a relapse then we're in real trouble. We'll be very cautious with him and it depends on another blood test and this and that." ...

|Low Body Mass Index Is Associated with a Positive Response during a Head-Up Tilt Test.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23035628 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Background: To describe the association between body mass index (BMI) and a positive response during a head-up tilt test (HUT) in patients referred for an investigation of syncope. Methods: Observational study of patients referred for the diagnostic evaluation of syncope. Patients were divided into four groups according to their BMI: <18.5 kg/m(2) , 18.5-24.9 kg/m(2) , 25-29.9 kg/m(2) , and > 30 kg/m(2) . Results: A total of 419 patients were evaluated. The mean age was 43 ± 22 years, and 62% were female. The prevalence of a positive tilt test was different between groups when stratified by BMI (P = 0.01), with a higher proportion of patients with positive tests among those with BMI <18.5 kg/m(2) compared with other groups (P = 0.05). Multivariate analysis also showed that underweight patients had a 3.9 times higher risk for a positive HUT response (P = 0.01); additionally, the use of contraceptive drugs was associated with a protective effect during HUT (odds ratio: 0.35, confidence interval:0.19-0.45, P = 0.001). Conclusion : In our sample, changes in BMI are associated with a positive response for HUT, and oral contraceptives seemed to protect against this response. Further studies are needed with larger numbers of patients to corroborate this finding. (PACE 2012;00:1-5).

Currently, Bagwell is the Houston Astros all time Home Run and RBI leader. Bagwell finished with a career Home Run tally of 449; which was especially impressive considering that the bulk of his career took place in the cavernous Astrodome. Throughout the 1990's, Jeff Bagwell was among the games most offensive minded first base baseman. He had power, decent speed, and was capable defensively. He was a popular player and was able to net the National League MVP Award in 1994.
As consistent as was in the 90's, Arthritis caught up to Bagwell early in his career. His numbers started to decline in 2002, and by 2005 his shoulder rendered him a liability as opposed to an asset. He retired at the age of 37 and had arthritis not retired him, his career stats would have been padded significantly. As such he finished with over 2,300 career hits in a fifteen year career. Bagwell's career numbers may seem at first on the bubble but with the great individual seasons he had before the steroid era we initially felt that he could have been a first ballot inductee. He did receive a healthy percentage in his first year, it should only be a matter of time before he gets in.

Estimation Theory and Information Theory: New Connections
For signals observed in Gaussian noise, we will unveil a new relationship between the input-output mutual information and the minimum mean-square error (MMSE) achievable by the optimal estimator of the input. This relationship holds for arbitrarily distributed scalar and vector signals, as well as for discrete-time and continuous-time noncausal MMSE estimation (smoothing).
We will also focus on two applications of these information theoretic results: the mercury/waterfilling formula for power allocation with arbitrary input constellations; and a universal continuous-time nonlinear filtering formula that couples the signal-to-noise ratios achievable by smoothing and filtering.
Sergio Verdú is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at Princeton University where he teaches and conducts research on information theory in the Information Sciences and Systems Group.

Prospects Signed
Colaiacovo, Upshall, Bowumeester, Nash, and Garth Murray.
participants:Leaf_Expert, oojuxeoo, GNashPredThis was on NHL.Com:
Panthers agree to contract with D Jay Bouwmeester
SUNRISE, Florida (Ticker) – The Florida Panthers agreed to terms Monday on a three-year contract with defenseman Jay Bouwmeester, their first-round pick and the third overall selection in the 2002 draft.
Details of the pact were not released.
Bouwmeester had to reach an agreement with Florida by 3 p.m.
EDT in order to play in the NHL this season. If not, he would have spent the season in juniors.
The 6-4, 210-pound native of Edmonton, Alberta collected two assists in six preseason games with the Panthers.
"Because we've been in the middle of negotiations it's been difficult to express just how impressed we've been with this young hockey player," said Florida general manager Rick Dudley.
"He truly is as good a prospect as I've seen in many years.
It will be fun to be associated with this evolving talent."
Bouwmeester, the top-ranked North American prospect and a smooth-skating offensive-minded defenseman, had 11 goals and 50 assists in 61 games for Medicine Hat in the Western Hockey League last season. He was one of only four players in Canadian history to appear at the World Junior Championships at the age of 16.
Already with the size to make it in the NHL, Bouwmeester may step right into the lineup for the Panthers, who ranked fourth from the bottom in goals-against with 250.
Blue Jackets sign No. 1 draft pick Nash
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Columbus Blue Jackets signed Rick Nash, the No. 1 overall pick in the NHL draft, to a three-year contract Monday potentially worth more than $12 million.
If he hadn't signed by Monday, Nash would have returned to his junior team, the London Knights of the Ontario Hockey League.
Nash's base compensation will be about $1.2 million a year, the rookie maximum. He could make up to $9 million more in incentives over the life of the deal.
"I'm just thrilled to get the deal done," the 18-year-old Nash said. "It took awhile, but it was best for both sides. I'm really happy with the contract and my main goal was to get it done and make the team."
The Blue Jackets sent their first-round pick to the Florida Panthers as part of a deal that allowed Columbus to move up and select Nash.
The left wing, from Brampton, Ontario, had 32 goals and 40 assists with London last season.
He had three goals and three assists in the preseason for Columbus, which opens the regular season Thursday against the Chicago Blackhawks.
Nashville announced the club has signed forward Scottie Upshall, the team's first selection (sixth overall) in the 2002 NHL Entry Draft. The 5-11, 184-pound Ft. McMurray, Alberta native finished second in scoring with 83 points (32g-51a) and logged 139 penalty minutes with the Kamloops Blazers of the Western Hockey League. Upshall tied for the Predators team lead with five points (1g-4a) in five games in the 2002 preseason.
Rookie defenceman Carlo Colaiacovo signed a three-year deal with the Toronto Maple Leafs on Monday that could pay him over $10 million US if he meets all of his bonuses.
Colaiacovo, who impressed the Leafs at training camp with his unexpected play, will earn the maximum salary allowed for rookies of his 2001 draft class, $1.13 million US this season, but can earn a whole lot more if meets certain performance bonuses.
The deal was reached less than an hour before the 3 p.m. EDT deadline to sign junior-aged players to NHL contracts.
"I don't think there's any better feeling to get everything done and over with," an overjoyed Colaiacovo told The Canadian Press moments after the agreement was reached. "I'm very happy with the whole situation. What a feeling, starting the season with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
"I'm just going to keep living every day the fullest."
Colaiacovo, 19, had 13 goals and 27 assists in 60 games with the OHL's Erie Otters last season. That's where he would have returned had the Leafs not signed him Monday.
Instead, he'll be in Leafs uniform Thursday night when Toronto opens the season in Pittsburgh.
"The only thing I'm thinking about right now is joining the team in West Virginia," Colaiacovo said from nearby Burlington, at the office of his agent Todd Reynolds.
The Leafs have a three-day sojourn in Wheeling, W.Va., before heading to Pittsburgh.
Colaiacovo, who played for Canada's world junior team last January, surprised even himself with his play in training camp and the pre-season.
Toronto's first pick, 17th overall in 2001, had three goals and three assists in six exhibition games and looked confident with the puck on both ends of the ice.
"I cannot believe the way this has ended. I conquered the greatest expectations of myself at this training camp," Colaiacovo said. "My goals going into it was to make an impression on the organization. I think I've done more than that."
The Rangers also announced Monday that the club has agreed to terms with forward Garth Murray on a professional contract. Murray, 20, skated in 62 contests with the Regina Pats of the WHL last season, tallying 33 goals and 30 assists for 63 points, along with 154 penalty minutes. He also registered one goal and three assists in nine post-season games with Hartford (AHL).

@5:36 The only thing I hate more than hipsters are people trying hard to be hipsters.
Factually Correct.
You can when you overdose.
One does not simply...\n\n\n...Do coke and stay calm.
says the guy doing bath salts
Im going to go with crystal meth on this one
Shocking that the guy doing coke is an idiot!
Is doing coke still a thing? Is it 1987?
I keep wondering that, but, judging by the posts to this website, it's come back around again. It typically takes about 20 years for that to happen with any given drug. People need to forget the previous generation's horror stories first. Having been a young'un in the 80s I personally was witness to some cocaine horror stories. :-(
GetOffMyLawn: I'm sure these up
True enough but then who would want to?
Correction: you calm down, go do some coke.
How can I be passed out if I was high on crack Ronda?
Chinese riddle for you
You could calm down by dying. Stupid coke head.

Born: December 26, 1919
Died: December 12, 2009
Burdeen "Buddy" Carlson, 89, Ada, MN, died at the age of 89, on Saturday, December 12, 2009, in Fargo, ND.
Born on December 26, 1919, he was the youngest child of Swen and Bertha Carlson. He was raised and educated in a country school in Anthony Township, near Halstad, MN. On March 16, 1946, Bud was married to Ruth Sundseth in Ulen, Minnesota. They raised their children and farmed in Anthony Township for many years. Bud was on various boards in the community, among them: the East Marsh River Lutheran Church Council, the Farmers Union Co-Op board, and the Anthony Township board. They enjoyed some winters in New Braunfels, Texas.
Bud and Ruth moved into Ada in 1995. He was able to go out to the farm to help his son, Tom, for many years after that. He was happiest when he was working or figuring out how to fix something. He saw many changes in his lifetime, and had interesting and funny stories to tell about his work. We will miss his wisdom, expertise, and counseling.
In November of this year, Bud and Ruth moved into an apartment in Fargo for the winter months. He is survived by his wife, Ruth, and children Thomas (Yvonne Horge) Carlson of Halstad, Judith Ann (Harold) Thompsen of Fargo, grandchildren: Shane (Deb Halvorson), Brock, Kathryn (David VanderArk), Trevor, John (Shea Westcott), Courtney (Jeremy Anderson), and Laura, great-grandchildren: Jacob, Bailey, Cody, Austin, Lexie, and Savanna, one sister, Helen Carlson Lee, Moorhead, MN, and many nephews and nieces. He was preceded in death by a son, baby boy Andrew; his parents; and siblings: Kenneth, Mildred, Leslie, Bernice, Wallace, and Erling.
Bud wrote: "I feel God is in charge of my future, be it life or death, and the promise of eternal life with Him is mine to grasp, paid for by His Son, Jesus, on the cross." We have been blessed to walk this generous earth with this gentleman farmer.
Funeral Service: 11:00AM Wednesday, December 16, 2009, at Grace Lutheran Church, Ada.
Visitation: 5-7PM on Tuesday at Fredrikson Funeral Home, Ada.
Prayer Service: 6:30PM Tuesday at the funeral home.
Burial: East Marsh River Lutheran Cemetery, rural Halstad, MN.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 126.96.36.199
I'd love to hear stories/"case studies" of people who thought they had it all and then came crashing down, and why did that happen, lessons learned, etc.
Rather than wasting my money on luxury toys, I'm planning on buying real estate, probably some rental properties. That way you still have a passive income and own something in the future if this all goes away.
I personally hope to make enough to retire on and get out. I don't need big, fancy things. What I have right now suits me fine.
As with the real world, your best bet is to be sensible with your money. There have been a few excellent books recommended here on the subject. "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", "The Millionaire Next Door" and "The Richest Man in Babylon" were my favorites. But to tell you the truth, they all say basically the same thing when it comes to personal finances. "Wealthy people don't spend money, they save it."
I had to take him to court over it, during the court proceedings the sites were down and lost all search engine rankings. I basically had to start from scratch after regaining ownership of the websites.
Never at one time did I even consider the possibility of getting a real job. To me with a real job there's no incentive or motivation to work hard. The people i know are happy to get a raise of 50 cents after a years work... so they earn $7.50 an hour versus $7.00... not exactly what i look for. It's not going to buy me my one way ticket out of this country.
Each day you learn something subtle about it that only comes from experience. You know it can be done, you know you can do it and what you learn can be applied to most any business. As long as you are smart with the $$$ you make, you should have a decent stash that will get you through some lean times. The next boom or crash is always just around the corner.
If you go all out, it can be a one way street that may not always be paved with gold and might not always be AM but when you know you can do something and you've done it, you have a better guage of your value and you have more confidence and you can sell yourself better. You're not likely to end up at some low wage mindless job again or if you do you'll know how to make the most of it and bounce back quickly.
If you look at yourself/your company as a lead generation operation, rather than an "affiliate marketer", this may help in expanding your view of things and give you an edge in business.
It's funny how people here seem to equate "real" jobs with $7.50 per hour. My real job (years ago), at a VC/investment banking firm paid quite well. I am not arguing the merits of this vs. aff marketing, and I certainly do not want to turn this into another idiotic "how much ya make?" thread, but I can assure you at this particular wall street firm, the employees and partners were not paupers by any stretch. In short, if your friends are making $7 per hour, they certainly qualify for wellfare in America and probably do not represent...errr.... the educated folks here that may be making real decisions about this very matter :)
A more direct answer to your question might be that of course things can go wrong as with all business. Some of the folks who have been running their own show for a while may have the benefit of cash to fall back on, however, if you are just starting out and have family and bills to worry about, I would certainly have a back up plan for a bit!
Can things go wrong? Yes, of course. I believe though that all the skills one learns in order to reach a point where they are doing this full time are worth far more than the actual money earned on a daily/monthly/yearly basis.
Essentially, we are training to sell. There is always going to be consumers, and there are always companies that target these consumers. That's we're we step in. Maybe it won't always be as good as it is now, where you wake up with money in the bank after a good night's rest, but the knowledge gained that makes this possible today can be applied both in the cyberworld and the "real" world tomorrow if the need arises. Combine this with a fail-proof method of security such as good real-estate investments for example and I think you can be quite confident that you will be alright no matter what comes your way.
Just my opinion however.
I'd say it depends what country you are from. What I am doing now would not equate to a major salary in the outside world so to speak in my country (UK). I agree that this would differ for the US, the land of opportunity :)
So how do companies like Mercedes and Yacht brokers stay in business?
BTW, rich dad poor dad = fraud/mlm chump. He is/was not a real estate guru and never had a rich dad. Also, the advice is pretty much crap in there and total BS as the truth is over 95% of the wealthy hae over 50% of tehur cash in teh stock market....But go for it, retire rich and becomae a slumlord -the real estate market never goes down if you follow his simple advice! :)
In my own view, the single biggest mistake you can make in AM is to start winning and relax. The minute you have something working well, start working on something else in a completely unrelated field. This way, when the first thing dies from too much competition or whatever, you have the second thing to fall back on.
Take this approach until you have at least 10 different industries providing you an income, making sure to replace anything that's dying with something new, then you'll have a pretty secure future.
And, in my very humble but proven opinion, put any spare cash into real estate and low risk stock market investments. None of my expensive toys have ever made me a profit :)
mfishy - gotta say I read Rich Dad Poor Dad and agreed with every word.
There are lots of things wrong with that book, you should read some professional reviews on that book.
I don't think I will ever have a day job again because I have enough resources to acquire other well established sites that are ranking high at google and other search engine so I'm really not worried about google or any other search engine folding because there will always be another big search enigne that everyone will use.
And by the way, I also disagree about rich people saving their money, rich people make their money work for them by investing in other businesses and if you have a good budget in USA its relatively easy to make your money work for you. It doesnt have to be all online (ex: car selling, real estate etc...)
So my advice to everyone, especially for people who are just starting up is to invest as much as possible in knowledge and expreriment with everything until you figure out what really works. Remember, its not how much money you have in a bank account, its how you can make that money work for you.
Remember, its not how much money you have in a bank account, its how you can make that money work for you.
But you still need some meaningful amount to get things going.
I'm trying to plough back 50% of my net earnings into the AM biz every month - advertising, acquiring domains, marketing materials etc.
It is difficult because of other commitments but I feel that's way forward.
Need to diversify across industries, hosting companies, domains, traffic sources, merchants within same industry, etc.
All these need $
rich dad poor dad = fraud/mlm chump
Maybe he was, but the real estate stuff wasn't what I was talking about. (I personally would avoid real estate myself. Too many headaches in my opinion.) All the books that I pointed out all say the same thing in regards to money. If you spend more that you make with the expectation of making more, you don't get anywhere. You have to save it (and invest as well, if you would like) in order to be prepared for rough waters or even just retirement.
Many lottery winners go bankrupt after they win b/c they spend their money like maniacs. Sometimes it might seem a bit heady to suddenly be making much more than you were before, but AM is not something that you go out and take a loan out on a $50K car 'cause you expect to be making what you are now forever.
Reoccuring theme:
They stumble across their money making ideas doing their normal day job, they dont gamble (no horses or big risks), they occupy a niche market which they are experts on.
with regards to wealth management they are very conservative buying only businesses that are established and with a good reputation.
76% of self made millionaires had no advanced education.
just my 2 cents... I'm sleepy testing our application.. oh well back to work... :)

2nd-largest fine levied against debt collector
Posted By -NO AUTHOR- On 02/01/2012 @ 7:14 pm In Money | No Comments
(NEW YORK TIMES) — The Federal Trade Commission signaled on Monday that it would continue to crack down on debt collectors who harass consumers for money they may not even be legally obligated to pay.
In the second-largest penalty ever levied on a debt collector, the F.T.C. said that Asset Acceptance, one of the nation's largest debt collection companies, had agreed to pay a $2.5 million civil penalty to settle charges that the company deceived consumers when trying to collect old debts.
