Mario and Sonic — long time foes in the video game world — decided to, in celebration of the 2008 Beijing Olympics, bury the hatchet and appear together in a game called Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for the Wii and Nintendo DS.
The first game was so successful that when the Winter Olympics held in Vancouver, Canada rolled around in 2010, Mario and Sonic got together again for Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games, also for the Wii and DS.
And now, with the 2012 London Olympic Summer Games just around the corner, Mario and Sonic will do it one more time - and for the first time ever, they'll be competing on the Nintendo 3DS, too! Soccer, Equestrian, Canoeing, Aquatics, Table Tennis and more add up to almost 50 Olympic-themed events for you to compete in both 2D and 3D.

The SI Kids offices have been buzzing for months now over two burning questions. One: Why does Professor Ulane where those goofy glasses in his photo? Two: What will 2K do for an encore after last year's terrific NBA 2K11 starring His Airness, Michael Jordan?
The answer we've all been waiting for: They're bringing back Jordan, and this time, he's not alone. Keep reading to see full size cover images of who's joining Jordan this year.
This year's Tour de France is in full swing. Even as you read these words, riders from around the world are currently pedaling up impossibly steep mountains in the French countryside. Winning the coveted yellow jersey, or even the polka dot jersey (which goes to the best climber in the race), is truly an achievement.
Now, you--yes, you--have the chance to don the yellow jersey, without having to do all the work and training and sweating! Yes, thanks to the wonder of video games, which make experiences that are otherwise impossible to mere mortals like us, we can now travel from one end of France to the other in Tour de France 11: The Official Game (available now for the iPhone and iPad).
Is this game worth a download? Let's take a look at the pros and cons.
Developer Natural Motion boldly made a run at the Madden franchise last year with their underappreciated take on football. The game, titled Backbreaker (PS3 and 360; 505 Games; look for it in the bargain bin at your local game store), featured a realistic physics engine called Euphoria which resulted in some of the best tackles the Sports Gamer has ever seen. Unfortunately, without the coveted NFL license, which Madden's publisher EA Sports has a lock on, few gamers were willing to give the game a shot.
But buried within the mini-games section of Backbreaker, and also available on the iPhone (Backbreaker and Backbreaker 2: Vengeance), was a gaming experience that arguably captures more of the essence of the football experience better than Madden does in its entirety. I'm referring, of course, to Tackle Alley.
If you've played Tackle Alley on the iPhone or 360/PS3, then you have a good idea of what you're in for with Backbreaker: Vengeance (Xbox Live Arcade; $15). Once again, you take control of a ball carrier and attempt to traverse all 100 yards of the football field while tacklers attempt to take you down.
Looking for a taste of Saturday afternoon football before the college season officially begins in August? NCAA Football 12 (EA Sports) is in stores on July 12th, which is a mere 14 short days away. But if you can't wait that long, and you have an Xbox 360 or a PlayStation 3, you can download the NCAA Football 12 demo right now. Best of all, it's free.

It is a relationship of dominance and subordination that makes further conflict inevitable.
Slavery, racism, sexism, and other forms of bigotry, subordination, and human rights abuse transform and adapt with the times.
For most of history, the subordination of wives to husbands was enforced by law and custom.
If there is any such relationship, the British people have seen no reward from it—only subordination and sacrifice.
They shared in every privilege belonging to her native sons, and but slightly felt the inconveniences of subordination.
They have learned too well the lessons of order and the necessity of subordination.
Every official strove to gain influence beyond his own sphere, and subordination hardly existed.
The Index of subordination is low, but we don't want one too high for this post.
Turning next to the Roman family, the condition of woman is more favorable, but her subordination the same.
I do not believe in the subordination of a wife to her husband.
mid-15c., subordinacioun "hierarchical arrangement," from Medieval Latin subordinationem (nominative subordinatio), noun of action from subordinatus (see subordinate (adj.)).
The use of expressions that make one element of a sentence dependent on another. In the following sentence, the first (italicized) clause (also called a subordinate clause) is subordinate to the second clause: "Despite all efforts toward a peaceful settlement of the dispute, war finally broke out."

Ridding one of the local trails I decided to go off the path where there is a patch of shredded wood, some how I managed to snap my rd completely in half and break a spoke and hopefully I didn't bend the rd hanger all this caused my rear wheel to lock up. Good news is I didn't go down or I would be picking splinters out of me. Man this will be the second rd I have busted this year just replaced it in March.

Tagada's journal
Welcome to Tagada's and Claire's journal !
Claire : I'm 19 years old and I come from France. I'm in university and my level of English isn't very good. It's for this reason that I'm here : I want to improve my English. I thought that combine English with my passion could motivate me, and as I'm in love of my small pony : Tagada !
Tagada is a shetland pony. Today he's 5 years old, and I know him since he was a baby. When he was three weeks old, his mother died. He was weak and he hadn't much chances to survive but we bottle fed and ... look at how he's in shape now! Since that day I take care of him as a new mum !
Waiting for photos (I have hundreds !) and a fuller account of our story, I leave you a video who summarizes our five years of life together.
Watch in HD !!
Here's what I said at the beginning :
"He's only a pony. Yet, it makes me always something to see him and to realize what he has allowed me to live. Think at him, this is to think at this faithful friend who follow me for 5 years. This is to think at a love who is continually built and renforced during a multitude of ordeals. This is to think defeats and victories. This is especially to think at happiness. I 'm proud, so proud of him. This exceptional friend, he will forever be for me. He has a special place in my heart that nobody else can have because he is irreplaceable. And I love him. He isn't only a pony, he's my pony, Tagada. "
See you soon !
PS : I apologize for my bad english, I hope you understand me ! Don't hesitate to correct me.

Its one of those crimes that makes you shake your head in disgust. Police say two robbers confronted a 10-year-old Montgomery boy, pulled a gun and took his puppy.
The fifth-grader was not injured in Monday night's incident near the downtown area.
The boy's father said his son was walking the two-month-old pit bull to show his grandmother when he was threatened by two males in a car.
He said the youngster was so shaken that he's now afraid to venture outside his house.
Lt. Huey Thornton, a police spokesman, said there's been a rash of pit bull thefts around the city. He said the dogs are either sold to individuals involved in dog fighting or to drug dealers who use pit bulls as guard dogs.
Thornton said investigators are looking for the two suspects.

There are hosted lunches each day at TED, and today I went to one hosted/sponsored by Coke, which has been teaming up with various NGOs to work on bringing water to wider public attention.
Coke certainly uses a lot of water in its core business proposition, which suggests why the corporation is interested in maintaining access to an uncontaminated supply. Daniel Vermeer is director of the sustainable value chain at Coke, and he told me he has spent the past five years working on water. After the lunch (at which attendees were tasked to come up with opportunities to raise water's global profile) he summarized these five ideas:
1. Link water to the climate discussion (because people need an intrinsic sense of what water is and what it means to conserve).
2. Emphasize the embeddedness of water in every part of the industrialized system, from clothes to Coke. As Vermeer put it, he realized water's importance when he realized that a car was essentially an industrial swimming pool driving around.
3. Use technology (an unsurprising suggestion from this crowd). But there could be an inexpensive opportunity to allow individuals to monitor the quality of their water.
4. Exploit innovation and connect stakeholders in a design sense. The Global Water Challenge is just one example of this philosophy in practice.
5. Create a movement around water issues and activate people in a powerful way to work together.
These kinds of discussions are the meat and potatoes of TED.
What comes next? The Bloomberg Businessweek Innovation and Design blog chronicles new tools for creativity and collaboration, innovation case studies in both the corporate and social sectors, and the new ideas that have the power to change the way things have always been done.

How to get shedding hair out quick and fast?
Anyone have any tips to make a horse shed faster before shows start back up! I don't want a harry horse haha!
Elbow grease.
You can try lights and blankets but they should of been started months ago.
Blanketing doesn't help but longer daylight will. If she's inside the lights have to come on earlier and go off later. Shedding is triggered by lengthening daylight hours.
I just bought a Farnam Slick Block because my beast thinks we live in Antartica. I used it a little bit last night and it worked wonderfully! I'd invest in one of those (it was $4).
Posted via Mobile Device
Yep, the Sleekez is the most effective shedding tool. I have tried every brush, shedding blade, furminator, block on the market. When you can't pull off anymore hair with that tool, or you have a tricky spot, like legs, face, chest, switch to the shedding block. The Sleekez is basically a hacksaw blade with a comfy handle. I have tried just a hacksaw blade before, I couldn't get a proper grip on it in order to do some serious brushing, the handle made all the difference. However, even with my arsenal of shedding tools, hours of brushing is still required.
Posted via Mobile Device
Blankets do help by warming the body and opening the follicles making the hair easier to pull out with grooming tools.
Agreed that the sleekz is basically a hacksaw blade inside a block. The furminator is the same as the bottom blade of a clipper. I like to have a couple different hacksaw blades around. When outside of the block, they are very flexible and easy to use over the curves of the horse.
Bathing will also help loosen the hair by eliminating the dead skin and sebum build up.
All those tools are merely pulling hair that has already been released. It doesn't remove still attached hair. The lighting encourages the horse to blow his coat.
Best thing ever for my Wooly Mammoth... With a little bit of applied pressure, I can get my guy pretty much completed shedding in about 2-3 hours.
I've used one of these on the horses , works great.

As recently as one hundred years ago, in parts of the Eastern European countryside, fear of vampires ran so high that corpses had iron stakes driven through their hearts. One wonders what events provoked such a practice. Via the Washington Post:
Bulgarian archaeologists say they have unearthed centuries-old skeletons pinned down through their chests with iron rods – a practice believed to stop the dead from becoming vampires to feast on the blood of the living.
According to Bozhidar Dimitrov, head of the National History Museum in the Bulgarian capital, Sofia, two skeletons from the Middle Ages were found in such a state last weekend near the Black Sea town of Sozopol. He said Tuesday that corpses were regularly treated in such a way before being buried in some parts of Bulgaria, even until the beginning of the last century.

|Dendritic cell subsets and type I interferon system in Behçet's disease: does functional abnormality in plasmacytoid dendritic cells contribute to Th1 polarization?
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 17949549 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|OBJECTIVE: Several lines of evidence point to a polarized T-helper-1 (Th1) immune response in Behçet's disease (BD). However, it is not yet clear which factors are involved in the proposed Th1 mediated pathogenesis of BD. Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen presenting cells which play a crucial role in the polarization of immune response. No previous study has examined the possible role of DCs in the pathogenesis of BD. We conducted both quantitative and functional analysis of the peripheral blood DC subsets in BD patients with different clinical presentations. METHODS: Thirty-eight patients with BD, 12 healthy controls (HC), and 12 patients with undifferentiated spondylarthritis (uSpA) were enrolled in the study. Peripheral blood DC subsets were analysed by flow cytometry and were further characterized for maturation with CCR7. Serum levels of interferon (IFN)-alpha and IFN-b were measured by ELISA. RESULTS: BD patients had a decreased percentage of plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) compared to HC (p = 0.036). IFN-alpha levels were found to be increased in BD patients as compared to HC and uSPA (p < 0.001, p = 0.005, respectively). BD patients had decreased levels of IFN-Beta as compared to HC and uSpA (p = 0.013, p = 0.004, respectively). No difference was found between HC and patients with uSpA regarding IFN-Beta levels. Subgroup analysis of BD patients disclosed normalization of percentage of pDCs and the level of IFN-Beta in patients receiving IFN-alpha-2b. CONCLUSION: We suggest abnormalities in pDCs and type I IFNs appear to be a master switch leading to the pathogenicity in BD by directing immune response towards Th1.

|Hello :3
Hiiii!! 8D I'm Scar!! Wanna be frineds? Cuz I do!!
This little gal here is Scar McSpark. She moved from North Park to the neighbor town, South Park with her divorced mother. When you meet her, she will probably make you slightly uncomfortable with how loud and energetic she might seem, but it's just her way of showing she's glad to meet you. She will probably want to be friends with you immediately, no matter what. Once you truly get to know her, she's actually not that bad. She has very high energy, she always wants to have fun (sometimes at an extreme level), she has a very cheerful and optimistic view of things, and she's just a pleasant, loving person to be around. Her hobbies vary from doing extreme stunts, doing outdoors activities, shooting stuff in the woods, to just chilling at home and playing video games, or playing with her pet rat. She's very open-minded to do anything!

Mortality Rate and Serious Disease Management at Baltimore Pretrial Facilities Continue Positive Trends
Intensive focus on health, suicide, and violence issues paying dividends
Towson, MD (July 8, 2010)---The Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services intensive effort to control chronic diseases, increase healthcare awareness, and decrease detainee deaths continues to make great strides, in stark contrast to a report released this week by the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS). That report cited Baltimores 2000-2007 pretrial detainee mortality rate as being the highest in the nation.
Since the current DPSCS administration came into office in 2007, a dramatic shift to proactive healthcare, education, and suicide prevention has made in impact at the Baltimore Central Booking and Detention centers. Those facilities, in the Division of Pretrial Detention and Services (DPDS) are among the busiest in the nation, with an average daily population of more than 4,000 men and women awaiting trial in the city.
Baltimore historically has one of the highest rates of violence in the nation, and is among the top five American cities in rates of HIV, hepatitis, and other communicable diseases. Intravenous drug use is also a huge problem. Since approximately 85% of the detainees in the pretrial facilities are city residents, its not surprising that most of them answer yes to questions at intake related to those issues. 78% report yes when asked if they suffer from any of these diseases.
The BJS report cited Baltimore as averaging more than 13 deaths per year at the pretrial facilities between 2000 and 2007. That number has dropped: to 12 in 2008, 7 in 09, and 3 so far this year.
HIV education programs have resulted in a 238% increase in the number of detainees submitting to voluntary HIV testing since FY 07. Additionally, we are the first system in the country to have a licensed methadone program within a pretrial facility. Other highlights include a reduction in hospital admissions for infectious diseases among detainees; fewer ER visits; fewer cell phones and contraband entering the facility (reducing overall violence); reduced hospitalizations for cardiac care and diabetes; and an intensive suicide-reduction effort.
Important statistics are listed below.
The OMalley-Brown administration came into office in January 2007. Since then the state has made substantial progress in improving conditions related to medical care, population safety and suicide prevention. All of this is shown in the numbers. In both the Baltimore City Detention Center (the jail) and the Division of Correction, weve made great strides in managing health care. Highlights include a 238% increase in voluntary HIV testing since FY2007 (going back to previous administration).
Some other quick numbers related to inmate/detainee heath care throughout the DPSCS system:
Cardiac Care/Infectious Disease Control
Diabetes Disease Management:
Increased Treatment Capacity and Utilization

Open wide, baby star: Here comes a stream of gas. Astronomers observing the still-forming sun HD 142527, located about 450 light-years away, have found that it is being fed by two hidden gas giant planets several times the mass of Jupiter. The planets, which are also still forming, each live in and are obscured by their own river of gas, which flows from a large, misshapen halo on the outer edge of the system (artist's impression, above; image from Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array telescope in Chile, inset). The planets' gravity draws gas from the halo, but much of that gas overshoots them and hurtles across a vast gap toward the star instead, the team reports online today in Nature. HD 142527 is only about 2 million years old, but it's a big newborn, already twice the mass of the sun. These rivers will help it grow even more.

Northern Integrated Supply Project proposal. / Courtesy of Northern Water
Glade Reservoir at a glance
What it is: The largest of two reservoirs that would be built as part of the nearly $500 million Northern Integrated Supply Project, Glade Reservoir would have capacity to hold 170,000 acre feet of water. An acre foot is enough water to put a football field under one foot of water.
Where it stands: NISP has been put under the microscope in a prolonged study of its potential environmental impacts being performed by the Army Corps of Engineers. The initial study was released in 2008, with a supplemental draft environmental impact statement ongoing.
Whats next: The Corps of Engineers study is expected to be released sometime in 2014, which would bring up a new round of public comment and hearings. A final decision on the project may be years off.
Learn more: Northern Water provides more information about the proposal at http://noconow.co/nisp.
When it comes to the proposed plan to construct the Glade Reservoir northwest of Fort Collins, there are no definite answers.
Would the man-made body of water rivaling Horsetooth Reservoir in size be a blessing or a bane? A destructive blow to lower Poudre River habitat or a gift to Northern Colorados precious and stretched water supply?
Even after the project resolved another great unknown in September how the Colorado Department of Transportation would re-route U.S. Highway 287 around the reservoir it is no closer to being a reality, and no closer to being completely shut down.
But whatever the contentious Northern Integrated Supply Project might be to Northern Coloradans, at least one thing is (mostly) certain: Despite numerous claims to the contrary, the Poudre River-fed reservoir could have done little to stem the tide of the Poudre during the September floods.
As much as Id like to say Glade would have had a big impact on the flood, it really wouldnt have, said Brian Werner, spokesman for Northern Water, the water managers organizing the NISP project.
The project to build Glade Reservoir is roughly 30 years in the making, since President Ronald Reagan declared the Poudre a National Wild and Scenic River in October 1986. Then, the declaration was a victory for environmentalists it limited where the river could be diverted for water conservation but set aside a portion of the river, at the bottom of the canyon, for projects such as the Glade Reservoir.
In theory, the reservoir would divert water off a swollen Poudre River when flows were high, conserving it in the reservoir for dry years, such as 2012, when extra water would be desperately needed, Werner said. The system would hypothetically pull up to 1,000 cubic feet per second from the river; typically, a Poudre flow peak reaches up to 3,000 cfs, Werner said.
But during the early September floods that pushed record levels of water down the Poudre, a loss of 1,000 cfs would have done little to mitigate the waters power, Werner said. Glades ability to help Northern Colorado would be in its ability to hold water in reserve for dry times, Werner argued, not in its capacity to control a 500-year flood event.
At the height of the flood, the Poudre was flowing through Fort Collins at more than 10,000 cfs, city officials said.
Like much about the Northern Water project, however, what Glade Reservoir could and couldnt do remains speculative.
The project stalemated after a 2008 Environmental Impact Statement a study of potential environmental damage done by the Army Corps of Engineers drew the ire of water activists. A supplemental report was ordered and will hopefully be completed by early 2014, Werner said.
Initial costs for the project were set at $350 million, but over the years, the cost was brought up to $490 million. Northern Water and its partners already have spent $12 million on assessments of the project.
Until it gets the results of the 2014 assessment, Northern Water is checking off the necessary boxes to put the project in order checks that mean nothing until the project gets the go-ahead. Re-routing portions of U.S. 287, which currently runs through the center of the reservoirs footprint, is one of those checks.
For the re-route, CDOT has chosen a 7-mile rock cut route through a hogback ridge just north of the current intersection of Overland Trail and U.S. 287, northwest of Fort Collins. It would mean new passing lanes at Teds Place the intersection of U.S. 287 and Colorado Highway 14 and would cost between $40 million and $50 million.
In the projects early days, the highway re-route was one of its more contentious aspects. Public meetings were held to address residents concerns about the road changes; diverting water from the Poudre wasnt the overriding issue that it has become, Werner said.
We used to joke in the early days of this project that it was a highway reclamation project, with a reservoir on the side, Werner added.
Eventually, environmental concerns about damage to the Poudre overshadowed any concerns about a new highway. Once, and if, Northern Water gets its project approved by the Army Corps of Engineers, it has a few legal battles to fight with environmental groups before its reservoir becomes a reality.
We are mired in the environmental permitting process, Werner said.
For Gary Wockner of Save the Poudre an activist group born of the NISP and Glade Reservoir proposal the final decision to re-route U.S. 287 has little consequence.
The CDOT decision is irrelevant. Because NISP would drain and destroy the Poudre River and violate the National Environmental Policy Act, Clean Water Act and Endangered Species Act, the project will never get built, he said in an email to The Coloradoan. So, where CDOT proposes to put a road that will never be built for a project that will never be built is irrelevant.
In the meantime, Colorados need for water has been temporarily relieved by Septembers deluge. But catastrophic flood is not a final solution, and droughts specter likely will haunt Colorado again.
We need to figure out where to build additional storage, Werner said of the need for more reservoirs to preserve what water Colorado does get. I am totally convinced that we have to figure out where to put some of those reservoirs.

As a feeder program for high school golf around the area, the York County Junior Golf Association is gearing up for another season.
Last season alone, four boys' — Isaiah Logue, Josh Rinehart, Nick Geiman and Axel Hartman — from the YCJGA program advanced to the PIAA Tournament.
It's reasons like this that will make this summer's York County Junior Golf Tour worth a view.
Beginning June 17 at Cool Creek Golf Club, nearly 100 young golfers will get their season underway.
There are three boys' divisions – 14 and younger, which play from the white tees, and two divisions for ages 15 to 18 — one plays from the white tees and the other from the blue tees. There also is one girls' division, which plays from the red tees.
But the tour is focused on reaching even younger players.
"We have an introductory program where less experienced players can play nine holes in a non-competitive setting," YCJGA board member Neil Crowell said via email. "They play the same dates and courses as the Tour program, except for June 30, when there is no nine-hole event."
For six weeks, the players will battle for a spot in the George Barton Match Play Championship at Grandview Golf Club to be played July 29 and 30.
In that event, the top 16 boys and top eight girls compete.
"Most major tournaments are stroke play, so its an opportunity for them to experience the unique strategy and rules of match play," Crowell said via email. "There are more spectators than usual and sometimes some of the players who have been eliminated will even caddy for the remaining players, so it is a neat atmosphere and the event carries a lot of prestige among the players."
What also carries some weight is the YCJGA Cup, for which players accumulate points throughout the season. The players with the most points in each division are recognized as champions.
"It really rewards players for consistency and gives them an incentive to not give up if they have a bad hole, because they know every point counts," Crowell said in an email.
To close out the season, on August 8, the 11th Annual Junior War of the Roses vs. Lancaster takes place at Meadia Heights Golf Club. York won the event last year.
"It's a Ryder Cup style team competition that pits our top players against the top players from Lancaster's junior program," Crowell said in an email.
Crowell believes this season's group of players is the deepest the program has seen.
"I think they all make each other better because the bar is set so high," Crowell said.
Logue, Rinehart, Geiman and Hartman headline the boys' division players.
Logue won the past two PIAA Class AA championships while at Fairfield. He posted a league low 68 average in the regular high school season.
Rinehart, from West York, won the District 3 Class AAA championship this season and is a four-time All-Star and a two-time Division II boys' golfer of the year.
Geiman, of York Catholic, won the Match Play championship last year.
Hartman, also from West York, finished 24th in the PIAA tournament.
Some up and coming boys' players to keep an eye on include Carson Bacha, who won the YCJGA Cup in the 14 and younger division last season at just 11-years old. Also, Evan Greenplate recently won the 12 to 13 age group of a Plantation's Junior Golf Tour event in Virginia.
On the girls' side, Julianne Lee, who won the Match Play championship and the YCJGA Cup last season will be a freshman next school year.
Tori Ross of Spring Grove is coming off her second straight YAIAA individual championship, and she recently finished third in the District 3 tournament.
Finally, Dave Childress, Spring Grove's head golf coach, is the new president of the YCJGA.
"He really believes in the importance of golf at the junior level and that having a strong junior program is vital to the ongoing success and viability of the local high school golf teams," Crowell wrote.

Garmin intros budget zumo 220 for motorcycle riders
updated 03:00 pm EST, Wed January 20, 2010
Garmin offers lowest-priced zumo for bikers
Garmin on Wednesday introduced the lowest-priced navigation device for motorcycle riders in its current range, with the zūmo 220. The rugged device has a 3.5-inch color touchscreen with a 320x240 resolution that has the ability to make text-to-speech guidance over the built-in speaker or by sending it to a Bluetooth headset. A lane assist feature and off-road navigation are its two largest software extras.
The zūmo 220 will display speed limits on most major roads, and contains preloaded maps of the US, Canada and Puerto Rico, along with six million points of interest. Users can pre-plan their trips and share them through the use of a microSD slot.
As with other motorcycle navigators in Garmin's range, the 220 is resistant to fuel spray, waterproof and its touchscreen can be operated with gloved fingers. The zūmo 220 is estimated to ship in March, priced at $600. It includes mounts for both motorcycles and cars.

While watching the Wild Card Playoffs this weekend as Minnesota and Phillidelphia tightened their chin straps, I had a my usual sense of uneasiness I have watching this version of the Childress led Vikings. In years past I could easily tell how far the team could go under Jerry Burns and Bud Grant due to the physical play of the team mostly on defense, and under Dennis Green due to the stellar offense play. Strong play by the weaker squad and we would advance. But after the first quarter of play a strange thing happened, I was comfortable with the effort put out by both sides of the ball and most important the confidence of Tarvaris Jackson. The team believed and i did. I have always been a strong critic of Jackson and his unability to throw the medium range pass that is needed in this run oriented offense. Then a strange thing happened in the second half, i could see in the Eagles defense that the threat of a medium pass was not there, Jackson was not going to hurt them. Then you could see it trickle down to the Vikings offense and finally to the stout defense. Season over.
So here the Vikings go into another offseason with questions concerning the quarterback. I have seen many articles and blogs concerning free agents, we should get this and that, another wideout, another corner, line help, but after much thought its obvious we need a quaterback who can throw a medium range pass effectively and complete a long third down pass once I awile. It is a necessity in a run oriented offense,( see Phil Simms, Trent Dilfer) not great passer ratings but able to make the medium range pass effectively and when the team needs the chains moved. The short pass only cloggs the running lanes, evident by the many defensive linemen the Eagles put in coverage, allows blitzing teams to hang around the line of scrimmage 8 and 9 men, hampering the running game while adding in exotic blitzing schemes. This team is as good as its going to get on defense and offense, besides the quaterback position. Is the team going to get better with the current batch of quarterbacks or will they look outside. And making matters more confusing ,the team seems to be behind Jackson now, unlike last year. Jackson had me believing for a half of playoff football, even after the interception, but a 45.4 quaterback rating wont get it done, and above all his unability to lead this strong, balanced team. Do we try him one more year or go with a another? Put in your opinion, I am truly on the fence......but my intellect tells me this is just not a good fit with this type of offense. This team immulates the Eagles in everyway except we have Adrian Peterson, opposed to Brian Westbrook. Two totally different type of backs. Even with Donovan Mcnabb at the helm of the Viking offense I believe the offense would run the same. Nothing against Tarvaris Jackson, I just think its a bad fit. See you next year Viking fans.

Both Sides Have to Give In, Mideast Expert Says
Franciscan Urges to Guerrilla Violence and Israeli Colonization
| 510 hits
JERUSALEM, MAY 15, 2001 (ZENIT.org-FIDES).-
Peace in the Middle East demands an end to Palestinian guerrilla violence and to Israeli colonization of the occupied territories, says a Franciscan.
Israeli Franciscan Father David Jaeger, an expert in relations between Israel and the Vatican, spoke with the international agency Fides about John Paul II´s appeal Sunday for a break in "the immoral chain of provocation and retaliation." Father Jaeger was involved in the agreements that opened relations between the state of Israel and Rome.
"There are two initiatives," he said, "which could offer a way out and halt the escalation of reciprocal violence between Israelis and Palestinians: the Egypt-Jordan plan and the Mitchell Commission, set up by the United States after the Sharm-el-Sheik summit failed.
"Both these initiatives, which have the approval of the European Union ... [and] the United States, connect the Palestinian intifada with Israeli colonization, and agree that violence on both sides must stop, before negotiations for a lasting peace can begin."
Both the plan and commission "agree that the colonization being carried out by Israel is just as violent as the intifada launched by the Palestinians," the Franciscan said.
He continued: "With this colonization" -- promoted by all Israeli governments since 1967 -- "day after day Israel inexorably reduces the Palestinian territories in question. While everyone hopes that Israel and Palestine will resume negotiations, slowly but surely Israel advances with its buildings and settlers, until there is little left to negotiate."
Because of this, the "international community, as well as a good part of public opinion in Israel, is saying that colonization by Israel must be stopped at the same time as the Intifada by Palestine," Fr. Jaeger added.
The Franciscan said he believes that the conflict has degenerated to inhuman levels.
"World public opinion was shocked by the ferocious killing of two 14-year-old boys on May 9 in the West Bank area," Father Jaeger said. "The boys were stoned to death with cold-blooded vengeance; their skulls smashed to small pieces, their bodies tortured to the point that not even Israeli propaganda had the courage to show the pictures."
"Violence such as this hardens hearts and thwarts the many peace efforts being made by international mediators," he lamented.
"For the recommendations of the Mitchell Commission and neighboring Jordan to take effect, both sides must take a stand for humanity," the Franciscan said. "They must condemn and stop similar acts of cruelty and commit themselves unconditionally to respect the humanity and dignity of both peoples."

The Best Part
Coconut Cake with Ginger-Lime Curd Filling and Cream Cheese Frosting. What's that? You think that sounds good? Spectacular, even? Well, congratulations!, you're right. I've made a fair amount of layer cakes and with each new one, I seem to think it's the best one yet. This one, however, could be tough to beat.
(Click "more" for the rest of the story, the photos & the recipe.)
Really, this cake had it all. The cake itself was dense and moist, with a soft coconut flavor. And the frosting was luscious and creamy and, again, subtly coconut-y. And, with it's ethereal dusting of flaky ribbons of coconut, it was beautiful. If I do say so myself.
And, I still haven't even gotten to the very (very, very) best part: the ginger lime curd filling. I have never made a curd before and, frankly, wasn't all that excited about it. But, once I got past the need to zest and juice about a million limes, it turned out to be an oddly satisfying experience. Seeing a sloshy bowl of sugar, eggs, lime juice and zest, and ginger transform into velvety mounds of curd was, well, neat. And, oh my goodness, was it delicious: rich and sweetly tangy, with whispers of spicy ginger.
I would've been happy to eat this stuff slathered on toast, cradled in a tartlet shell or, most of all, straight up by the spoonful. But it was absolutely perfect sandwiched between the layers of this cake. With its complex and assertive flavor and creamy texture, it elevated this cake from one that was very good to one that was really special.
The cake was also a perfect finale to the line-up of Spanish food I wrote about yesterday. Best of all, Brynn loves coconut desserts, so this cake was the perfect one to celebrate her engagement.
Coconut Layer Cake
Shubox Café via Bon Appetit
2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 3/4 cups sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup canned sweetened cream of coconut (such as Coco Lépez)*
4 large eggs, separated
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk
Pinch of salt
Cream Cheese Frosting***
4 cups sweetened shredded coconut
Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and flour two 9-inch-diameter cake pans with 2-inch-high sides. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon salt in medium bowl to blend. Using electric mixer, beat sugar, butter and sweetened cream of coconut in large bowl until fluffy. Beat in egg yolks and vanilla extract. On low speed, beat in dry ingredients and then buttermilk, each just until blended.
Using clean dry beaters, beat egg whites with pinch of salt in another large bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold beaten egg whites into batter.
Divide cake batter between prepared pans. Bake cakes until tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool cakes in pans on rack 10 minutes. Run small sharp knife around pan sides to loosen cakes. Turn cakes out onto racks and cool completely.**
Place 1 cake layer on cake plate. Spread 1 cup Cream Cheese Frosting over cake layer. Sprinkle 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut over.*** Top with second cake layer. Spread remaining frosting over top and sides of cake. Sprinkle remaining coconut over cake, gently pressing into sides to adhere. (Coconut Layer Cake can be prepared up to 1 day ahead. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Let stand at room temperature 2 hours before serving.)
*Canned sweetened cream of coconut is available in the liquor section of most supermarkets nationwide.
Cream Cheese Frosting
Shubox Café via Bon Appetit
Beat cream cheese in medium bowl until fluffy. Add butter and beat to blend. Add sugar, sweetened cream of coconut and vanilla extract and beat until well blended.
*Bon Appetit Note: Canned sweetened cream of coconut is available in the liquor section of most supermarkets nationwide.
**Kristin's Note: I made two cakes for the party. For one of the cakes, I cut the two cake layers in half to create a four-layer cake. For the other (from which the slice pictured above came), I left the two layers in tact.
***Kristin's Note: Instead of filling the cakes with the cream cheese frosting, I used ginger-lime curd (recipe below) for the filling, as I mentioned in the post.
Ginger-Lime Curd Filling
Bon Appetit
3 large eggs
3 large egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup grated lime peel (from about 12 limes)
1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger
Pinch of salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces, room temperature
Whisk eggs, yolks, sugar, lime juice, lime peel, ginger, and salt in large metal bowl to blend. Place bowl over saucepan of barely simmering water (do not allow bottom of bowl to touch simmering water); whisk constantly until curd thickens, about 8 minutes. Remove bowl from over simmering water; whisk butter into curd. Strain through fine strainer set over bowl; discard solids in strainer. Press plastic wrap directly onto surface of curd; chill overnight. (Curd can be made up to 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.)

- Bexxie says on January 21 2008 at 7:39 am:
wow that looks lovely! I love coconut cake
- Karina says on January 21 2008 at 7:49 am:
Mmmm the ginger-lime filling sounds delicious. What a beautiful cake!
- ourkitchensink says on January 21 2008 at 8:48 am:
Bevsedgehills: Thanks! I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one considering a slice of this cake for breakfast!
Bexxie: Thanks! I've never been a huge coconut fan, but this cake converted me.
Karina: Thank you! The filling was absolutely amazing. Your blog looks great, by the way! I see you recently made a coconut cake too. Thanks for leaving the link.
- rachel says on January 21 2008 at 10:15 am:
That's a beautiful and yummy sounding cake!
- amanda says on January 21 2008 at 10:47 am:
i love the way that these coconut cakes look. so light and fluffy. totally reminds me of a spring cake, you know?
- Evelin says on January 21 2008 at 12:02 pm:
This looks, sounds and I don't doubt must taste so good! I'm a huge fan of coconut, but I'm usually a bit skeptical about cake recipes that feature coconut milk/cream. How well does the flavour come through here?
- Joy says on January 21 2008 at 12:14 pm:
Yumm!!! That looks soo beautiful! My tummy is grumbling now because of it. Haha.
- ourkitchensink says on January 21 2008 at 12:14 pm:
Rachel and Amanda: Thank you, thank you!
Evelin: Thanks! Between the coconut cream in the cakes themselves, the coconut cream in the frosting, and the actual coconut flakes coating the outside, there is a definite, yet subtle, coconut flavor. I was worried it would be overpowered by the curd (but not that worried because I loved the curd so much), but it wasn't. I think the coconut and ginger/lime flavors played off each other really well.
Joy: Thanks!
- Brynn says on January 21 2008 at 2:22 pm:
This cake was heaven. 2 of my absolute favorite flavors – coconut and bright, tangy citrus – put together into a perfect (not to mention beautiful) cake. I wish I'd had the foresight to snag an extra piece to go when I had the chance. Thank you again for the best party and the best cake.
- ourkitchensink says on January 21 2008 at 4:40 pm:
Brynn! I'm such a bad hostess. I can't believe we didn't send you guys home with the leftover cake. The good news is that I have a very hefty wedge in the fridge right now that has your name all over it. I'm so glad you enjoyed the cake (and, oh yeah, the party)!
- JP says on January 21 2008 at 6:09 pm:
- ourkitchensink says on January 21 2008 at 6:47 pm:
JP: Yes, that's the recipe I used for the ginger-lime curd. The reviews for the cake and frosting, however, were less than ideal and commenters recommended the Shubox cake in its place. So, I went with that!
- JEP says on January 21 2008 at 7:22 pm:
I sure wish this cake were sitting in my kitchen right now! Huge fan of coconut cake—the lime curd just elevates it to the next level!
- Sara says on January 21 2008 at 8:18 pm:
This looks incredible! I can't wait to try it.

Ginger and lime is a fantastic combo, throw some coconut in there too and I'm in heaven!
- Deborah says on January 22 2008 at 12:32 pm:
There is a coconut cake that I have been dying to make, but this one sounds even better!!
- Sindy says on January 27 2008 at 9:28 am:
I saw this picture on "Tastespotting" and that led me here. The cake was beautiful but when I saw the recipe I knew I just HAD to have it. BUT, I am a self professed non-baker. So, I rolled up my sleeves. Read the recipe several times and measured and mixed a carefully as I was capable of. The results? OMG GOOD! and it even looked beautiful (often I only get one or the other) I had a small dinner party and my guests were VERY impressed! One even said it was possibaly the BEST CAKE SHE EVER HAD and she is quite a cake coniseur so I am quite proud of myself and in debt to you.
This balance of flavor was truly profound!
- ourkitchensink says on January 27 2008 at 3:19 pm:
Sindy: That's great! I'm so glad you gave it a try and, even more, that it was such a great success! Thanks for letting us know.
- Rachelle says on March 06 2008 at 10:27 pm:
Hi there!! I don't know whether or not you will get this comment as the post is a bit older, but I had a quick question about his cake… how tall does it bake? It's fairly tough to tell from pictures… I LOVE tall, tall cakes for birthdays and am going to be baking this for someone next weekend. Would you recommend making it as is or making one and a half times the cake and making a third cake round to create that dramatically tall cake??? Thanks for your time!!
- ourkitchensink says on March 07 2008 at 6:41 am:
Rachelle: I'd guess the cake was about 5 inches high. I think you'd be fine if you added a third layer, because this cake was pretty sturdy. Between the dense/moist cake layers themselves, the curd (which acts as a glue) and the thick frosting (which holds the whole thing together really well), I think you'd be fine. Just be careful when you slice it. Let me know if you try …
- Sarah C. says on April 20 2008 at 7:28 am:
Hi there, this cake really does look special. I have a question for you regarding the recipe. Do you think that coconut milk could replace the sweetened cream of coconut? The cream of coconut always seems extraordinarily sweet to me.
- Phaedra says on April 21 2008 at 9:37 pm:
OK, I have some friends that are doing a kinda Japanese-themed wedding this fall and I'm looking for some cake ideas and wanting something that's citrus-y and ginger-y but also would lend itself well to a beautiful big wedding cake. I think I'm going to run this recipe by them just because I think it looks so yummy… Any more possible ideas anyone?
- Kristin at The Kitchen Sink says on April 25 2008 at 5:38 am:
Sarah C.: I'm not sure about that swap. I'd be mainly concerned about the difference in texture (thickness) between coconut milk and cream of coconut. I will say that the end product here is definitely not overly sweet. I think you would be safer to make the switch to coconut milk in the frosting than you would be to do so in the cake. If you do try it, let us know how it goes
Phaedra: I think this would be wonderful for the occasion! What lucky friends you have!
- Kristina H says on September 29 2008 at 9:21 am:
I made this cake for a Cake Buffet last week and I must tell you, it is by far the most delicious cake I have ever made. Thank you!
- Kristin at The Kitchen Sink says on September 30 2008 at 9:26 am:
Kristina H: That is wonderful to hear!
- PA says on March 26 2009 at 5:20 pm:
Just found this. Am asking huz to make it for my birthday.
- Polly says on January 27 2010 at 5:38 pm:
Well now. This was some work, but it was beautiful and better yet, a big hit. A few mods: the first being accidental. I realized AFTER making the curd and licking the spoon in ecstacy that I had omitted the butter. It tasted so good without, that I let it be. I also toasted 1 c. of the coconut for the frosting which added a little depth to its snowy appearance. Thanks for another standby recipe!

Occupancy rates boost profit at Life HealthcareComment on this story
Londiwe Buthelezi
With more than 1 100 new bed licences pending, growth momentum in markets outside of South Africa and low gearing that provides financial flexibility to continue to invest more into its existing and new operations, Life Healthcare is advancing its position in the country's private hospital sector.
The company, which has been increasing its hospital occupancy rates ahead of rivals in the past few years, continued to capitalise on South Africa's growing demand for private hospital services. Reporting its results for the half year to March, the group yesterday reported 70.6 percent occupancy, the best it has had for the period since it listed in 2010.
It recorded a 10.2 percent increase in revenue to R6.2 billion. Operating profit increased by 90.1 percent to R2.49bn and normalised earnings a share rose 16 percent to 82.7 cents.
36One Asset Management analyst Jean Pierre Verster said that although the other hospital groups were yet to announce results, he expected Life Healthcare to still have the highest occupancy rate.
He said the group benefited from operational efficiencies as a result of both its structure and its geographic position.
"Netcare has high concentration in Gauteng and Mediclinic has wide representation in the Western Cape. But Life Healthcare has a presence across South Africa, which makes it a preferred hospital group when medical aids are looking for preferred service providers because they want a wide network," he said.
Verster said he felt that Life Healthcare had increased its profit margin by more than its rivals as a result of these structural contributors.
Life Healthcare said it was planning to add an additional 120 brownfield acute hospital beds in the next six months.
In the period under review, the group added 142 acute care hospital beds. After the 120 new beds that were expected in the next six months, Life Healthcare expected another 180 or more of the outstanding 1 100 beds within a year.
As demand for private hospitals grew in South Africa, all of the country's three biggest independent hospital groups – Life Healthcare, Netcare and Mediclinic – have been adding new beds rapidly.
Verster said the three groups had "fire power" to expand in South Africa and while Life Healthcare's group results showed good gearing, the other two groups' gearing was offshore.
Even if local competition is tight, Life Healthcare is increasingly looking beyond South Africa for growth. Last month it bought a 80.7 percent stake in Polish private health-care company Scanmed Multimedis for R427 million
In India, where it acquired a 26 percent stake in Max Healthcare Institute in 2011, revenues continued to grow.
Verster said it would be interesting to see if Life Healthcare was going to increase its stake closer to 50 percent now that there had been management changes that would allow the group to exert more influence in Max.
Life Healthcare declared an increase of 16.7 percent in the interim cash dividend to 63c a share.
Life Healthcare shares lost 0.4 percent to close at R41.93 on the JSE yesterday.

Caol Ila 1980 (Malts of Scotland)
Tasting notes by Ruben Luyten - Posted in Caol Ila
After the Caol Ila 1998 cask #12374, this 1980 vintage is the second
Caol Ila released by Malts of Scotland. The new one is much older (29 years old) and from a sherry hogshead. Caol Ila of this age is quite rare and sherry matured Caol Ila even more so, which means expectations are high.
Caol Ila 29 yo 1980 (54%, Malts of Scotland 2009, cask #4935, 175 btl.)
Nose: let's start by saying the smoke is rather light for a Caol Ila. It's mostly new leather that shines through at first with some fruity notes, like warm apples, tangerines and even chocolate bars with a tropical fruits filling (mango). I don't think I've ever had a Caol Ila with such a tropical side. Lots of spices as well (mint). A bit of paraffin. Just light waves of typical coastal / smokey / medicinal notes. A bit shy maybe, if you're used to powerful (younger) Caol Ila, but most elegant and very smooth. Mouth: rich and slightly more typical with linseed oil, camphor, grapefruit juice and some pepper, although it stays rather sweet. Much more smoke now. Cherry liqueur. Liquorice. A very slight bitterness underneath the sweet sherry (like pink grapefruit). A few resinous notes as well. Finish: long, growing saltier and drier.
A very good old Caol Ila with a profile that we don't see very often. The sherried sweetness works well, and the result is really smooth while at the same time showing the typical Caol Ila power. Very fair price: € 130. Recommended!
Score: 90/100
