See Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt's $24,000-a-Month Rental Mansion in England
Perhaps they'll invite Prince William and Kate Middleton over for tea?
Recently engaged Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are shelling out $24,000 a month to rent a mansion on the posh Wentworth Estate in Surrey, England, sources confirm to Us Weekly.
PHOTOS: A timeline of Brangelina's romance
Along with their six kids, Jolie, 36, and Pitt, 48, will call the spread home "for the next 15 months" as they make movies in the UK, the source explains. (Jolie is currently filming the Sleeping Beauty-inspired flick Maleficent at nearby Pinewood Studios; Pitt shoots Ridley Scott's The Counselor with Cameron Diaz, Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem later this year, and Jolie has reportedly signed on for another British film after that.)
PHOTOS: Angelina's stunning style transformation
And Maddox, 11, Pax, 8, Zahara, 6, Shiloh, 5 and twins Vivenne and Knox, 3, will have a ball at the new place, the source says.
"The house is amazing!" the source says. "It's like a miniature version of the White House, although there is nothing mini about it."
Another plus? "It's perfect because they're still close to Miraval," the source says of the even grander home they own in the south of France, where some speculate that Jolie and Pitt could hold their top-secret wedding. "They love the house!"

For some of you it may be most important to make contact and share experiences with other teenagers in similar situations. You can 'talk' to others in the discussion forum in the 'Support' section. Also, we recommend that you have a look at the stories on the site to find out what other young people in similar situations are going through.
Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions that are not answered by the information on the site. You can also get in touch if you would like any advice or emotional support in relation to what you are going through at the moment. Riprap has a team of support specialists with lots of experience in cancer care to talk things through or help you find the support you need locally or elsewhere.
Riprap was developed by a team based at the University of Sheffield, UK - within the Academic Unit of Supportive Care, the Department of Oncology. The website was first launched in 2003 and we are very grateful to the New Opportunities Fund for funding the initial website development under their 'Living with Cancer' initiative. We are also very grateful for the subsequent funding from the Department of Health that enabled us to upgrade the website in 2012. In July 2014, riprap's future was secured by being merged with Maggie's and becoming part of their Online Centre.
As the site is developed in the UK, we have included a directory of services - called 'support in my area' - so that you can find out where to go if you want to contact someone locally where you live. There is also a list of links to national – including some international – organisations where you can look for further information and support.
You may wonder why we have called the site 'riprap'. The word 'riprap' means loose stones placed into a stream, onto which a firm foundation can be built. We hope that this site can be one of your building blocks at a time when many things may seem uncertain and at a loose end.
We want to make this site as helpful as possible. Please visit the feedback section and let us know what you think so that we can continue to improve it.

Hank Williams said that country music aint nothin' but three chords and the truth, or was it Johnny Cash? It turns out that it was actually a songwriter named Harlan Howard. Then Muddy Waters said that the blues aint nothin' but three chords and the truth. Bono sang that all he's got is a red guitar, three chords and the truth. These people from different eras and backgrounds all understood that real music is about real life and real feelings. It is truth.
When we were trying to come up with a name for our band, we wanted a name that epitomized who we are. We play rock, blues, country, gospel, soul and R&B, but we wanted a name that didn't typecast us as just a rock, country or blues band or gospel group. No matter what style we are playing we are bringing the truth. So that's what we went with. "The Truth"
Now it turns out that there were a million other bands with that name. One time we played a place and they had ordered a bunch of our CDs to sell. The only problem was that it wasn't our CD. It was another band called The Truth. Well that was the last straw, so we thought it was time for a change. We settled on "Truth Jones". "Jones" means to crave or greatly desire something, so "Truth Jones" means to desire the truth. It retained everything we loved about "The Truth" plus it sounds like somebody's name like Marshall Tucker, Lynyrd Skynyrd or Pink Floyd.
The Truth was formed in the year 2000 and features Jim Gustin on vocals and guitar, Jeri Goldenhar on vocals, Chris Baurer on guitar and vocals, Burke Greer on bass and vocals, and Jim Sipotz on drums. Jessica Baurer on vocals, yes, she's married to Chris and is Jeri's daughter. Stephen Semola on keys and vocals, and Chuck Goldenhar on harmonica, yes, he is Jeri's Husband but not Jessica's Father. Got it?
We have played at lots of parties and celebrations, dozens of clubs, sports bars, wine bars, beer bars, events at Magic Mountain, and we even played in the Staples center prior to an LA Kings hockey game (Go Kings!) We have played benefits to support The Hunger Defense Fund, Help the Children, Susan G, Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, and the Santa Clarita Sheriff's toy drive and many other charity benefits. You can also find most of us playing in church on Sunday mornings.
We are currently working on our debut album, tentatively titled "Can't Shed a Tear". We hope to be finished in May. It is the culmination of years of playing all kinds of music and experiencing everything that real life brings, joy, hurt, doubt, pain, faith and hope. It is a very honest album and I think you'll feel a true connection with us when you hear it.

From time to time it's good therefore to take up Jesus invitation to come to Him, to step aside, and in meeting with Jesus to discover refreshment, fullness of life, and strength for our next steps. At Lough Derg we have an opportunity to be still in an ancient place of pilgrimage, and to pray in company with other Christians across our religious traditions."
Friends and interfaith groups from across the Christian Churches are welcome to come as a pilgrim people and gather in faith as God's family in one of Ireland's oldest living places of pilgrimage - Lough Derg, the Sanctuary of St Patrick.

'A minimum of 6 people will suffer intense grief following a suicide, more than 50 people will have strong emotions and a further 13 to 30 will experience moderate grief as a result of death by suicide'
Ahead of World Suicide Prevention Day next week Lough Derg announces a response to support people who are living with suicide in their lives:
Living with Suicide Retreat - 'Seeking Strength, Finding Comfort'
on Wednesday 24th September 2014
Fr Cathal Deery, Spiritual Director of the Living with Suicide Retreat Day on Lough Derg, speaks about the true reality of the numbers of people impacted by suicide: "It is estimated that around 1,000 people die by suicide in the island of Ireland every year - a reality that casts a shadow on the lives of hundreds more; families, extended families, personal and professional networks, whole communities, the extent of which can reach tens of thousands of people."
Fr Cathal, also a member of the Lough Derg team, continued: "During this year's pilgrimage season we continued to encounter many pilgrims who shared their witness to the heartache of living with suicide in their lives. We wanted to do something once again to support those people who have been affected by suicide, either through personal loss or with suicidal ideation, or for those ministering to the suicide bereaved or working in support services. The Living with Suicide Day Retreat is not a conference in the secular sense of the word but rather an invitation to people to come to a safe place where they might find some sense of healing and peace in the midst of pain and struggle."
Lough Derg is a sacred place known over the years for offering a welcome and an opportunity for healing and hope to thousands of pilgrims. Christy Kenneally is a guest speaker and comments ahead of the Living with Suicide Retreat on 24th September: "I came to Lough Derg in 2013 for the first time and found it an oasis of calm and safety - no one is judged and everyone is welcome. Coming away for a few hours to Lough Derg from the everyday living with suicide gives us the distance to establish perspective and focus on what really matters. The retreat offers a degree of silence unlike any other where one can listen - listen to the interior voice. To unburden ourselves from the expectations of others and the expectations we burden ourselves with. We can come to be grounded in our reality, resilience and in our relationship with God. We can come to allow our spirits some breathing space and to gain sanctuary from 'have to', 'must do' constraints.
The Retreat on Lough Derg helps one to know that moving beyond coping is possible. Coping gives us a framework for existence but existence is not life. It takes a different kind of strength to transform our reality rather than just endure it. The essential strength to move on is within us. A day in a 'quite place - a place apart' gives us a chance to evaluate what or who will sustain us."
Christy concludes: "Coming to the Island sanctuary for the first time last year touched and stilled me. The stillness and peacefulness to be found on Lough Derg can help us listen. Listening to the internal voice requires conscious effort. Listening to the voices of those who have gone before us requires courage; courage to listen without argument or judgement. Time on the Island allows one the space to experience the unseen dimension of what is happening inside."
The Living with Suicide Day Retreat offers time for Reflection through the talks as well as time to spend on the holy Island. Everyone is welcome. There will be a closing session of prayerful reflection embracing the love of God. Refreshments throughout the day and a light lunch. Admission €40/£35. Timings: 10.00am - 4.00pm; Wednesday 24th September.
For further information on this retreat please contact Sharon or Maureen in the Lough Derg office on 071 9861518 (from Northern Ireland 028 68632391)
Lough Derg's extraordinary spiritual attraction as one of Ireland's oldest places of pilgrimage is revealed in an insightful new documentary to be broadcast on Ireland's first international channel Irish TV.
Ireland's Pilgrim People will air at 9pm on Thursday, July 17 and can be seen across Ireland, the UK, and Europe on Sky Channel 191, Freesat 400, Eircom's eVision.free-to-air boxes and online at Irishtv.ie and in the United States on the PBS network.
Presenter Malachi Cush joins pilgrims as they land at the Sanctuary of St Patrick on Donegal's Lough Derg and the hour-long programme records their experiences of three days of prayer, penance and fasting.
Malachi said, "We show viewers what brings pilgrims to Lough Derg and explore the deep sense of peace, calm and fulfilment that is to be enjoyed on this Island which St Patrick himself was called to."
Bishop Donal McKeown, Bishop of Derry, made this statement before departing to Lourdes on Tuesday 1st July with a group of 365 pilgrims, the group included 70 young people.
Bishop McKeown said, "I, along with many from our group, have just completed a three day pilgrimage to Lough Derg. This was an important part of our prayerful preparation for Lourdes. Our annual pilgrimage to the Marian Shrine is an important element in helping us rediscover the joy of both conversion and mission."
Bishop McKeown led the Three Day Pilgrimage to Lough Derg for the youth of the Derry Diocese on Saturday 28th July 2014
"A well-spring of living water"
The words of new Prior Fr Owen McEneaney to describe Lough Derg's
continued appeal ahead of the opening of thecenturies-old
Three Day Pilgrimage on Friday 30th May
New Prior extends a warm invitation to young and old alike to come on pilgrimage to Lough Derg a place apart and take rest.
At the beginning of his first Pilgrimage Season as Prior, Fr McEneaney says; "Lough Derg, 'a well-spring of living water, is like a 'detox' helping to bring heart, mind and soul into balance. Lough Derg's new season message 'Come as you are…..to a quiet place and rest a while' echoes the invitation of Jesus to his disciples when he called them away for a while as so many were coming and going that they didn't even have time to eat." (Mark 6:31)
Fr Owen continued; "In today's fast paced/pressured life style, where people are continually connected to smart phones and tablet devices - time for oneself – time to come to the table of life, to be present to the deeper meaning of life and to sip the joy of life – is getting lost.
In today's technology driven world doing the Lough Derg pilgrimage may be counter cultural but it survives through the generations because, as a pilgrim put it, 'it is a place of pilgrimage with a powerful magnetism that is difficult to explain.' I believe in this magnetism - our fore-fathers and mothers journeyed to pray for their families and we are their families today and our children will be Lough Derg's families of tomorrow.
People continue to come for a myriad of reasons - to give thanks, to find themselves, to make sense of something or everything, to draw closer to God, to offer the pilgrimage for someone and for others it is the challenge to just do it."
This unique place of pilgrimage welcomes people on Three Day Pilgrimage from Friday 30th May until Wednesday 13th August.

Hey Jen! I actually do many of those things because with three kids and my own business, I have to use my "spare" time wisely!

I really just want to cuddle with that cat... :) He looks so soft!!!ReplyDelete
There's nothing a hot bath can't fix. Especially if you lock the bathroom door so you're kids can't wander through wanting stuff.ReplyDelete
These are all good ideas. I am always trying to find a way to be more centered and more present. Sometimes the solution is so simple. I think I need light candles more. Especially now that it is the holiday season, there are so many yummy fragrances. Candles always make me feel little more relaxed.ReplyDelete

A British-born mate in Hong Kong had been communicating about the performance of the Olympic champion, Ben Ainslie, in the first six races relative to that of Jonas Hogh-Christensen, who was becoming dubbed: 'the Great Dane,' a title formerly reserved for fellow Finn sailor Paul Elvstrom. The friend in that district of China with national autonomy is not a man of little faith, but like many others, his belief in Ben was being stretched almost to breaking point.
July 31, 2012 Heavyweight Mens Singlehander - Ben Ainslie GBR - approaching Mark 1 on today's first race
Come Thursday and there is a change in the weather. Despite a bleak morning, the sun came out to shine and its effect was noticeable throughout Team GBR. There was a couple more knots of breeze, but that should have given the Danish sailor even more advantage as he is 12 kilos (27lbs) heavier than his British rival. Ben had his best start of this regatta in the first race of the day and led throughout. The pressure was relieved somewhat when Jonas capsized early on the run and went from fourth to tenth. But those are the factors that make yacht racing the sport that it is.
Jonas went for broke (old English expression) at the start of the eighth race by nailing the pin end of the line. He was a trifle slow away and Rafa Trujillo of Spain was to windward of the Dane. Watching the two was enlightening - Jonas went for speed while Rafa went for height. At the first mark it was one-two in favour of the Spaniard, but not far behind, in fifth place, was Ben. His downwind technique was called into play and he moved up to third as Jonas slipped to fourth.
On the day, Ben had improved seven points on Jonas and now trails him by three with two races and the double-pointed medal race to come. The telling reply from Hong Kong read: 'No lack of faith here, believe me. Jonas had to have a result worse than Ben's worst, which was that eighth today that forces him to count the seventh from day 2, and Ben's worst now is a 6. Damn, I could get into this maths stuff! My money says Ben in the lead before the medal race. Am equally excited about Iain and Bart (in the Star), Goodison (Laser), Stevie and Ben (49er), and the 470 boys.' It would seem he knows where to put his money - his bets would have paid handsomely on this day.
A 1,2 by Iain Percy and Andrew Simpson in the Star, extended their lead by five points over Robert Scheidt of Brazil. This was aided at the finish of the first of the day's races when it appeared that the Brazilians would take the second place, but Mateusz Kusznierewicz and Dominik Zycki's boat lifted on a wave and surged past the hapless Brazilians to snatch the place from them. Then finishing second in the next race helped the British pair to a nine point lead after eight races.
The extra breeze was obviously what Stevie Morrison and Ben Rhodes wanted for the 49er races. They led the first from start to finish - just nine seconds ahead of the Finish pair, Lauri Lehtinen and Kalle Bask. The same two had a close battle with places changing three times before the result was exactly as before. The much-vaunted Australian duo of Nathan Outteridge and Ian Jensen had, for them, a bad day with a tenth and a sixth, so that the British pair are within eleven points in second place.
Goodison and his fellow Laser sailors had the day off, but the '470 boys' began their campaign in style, emulating the British Star sailors by putting only three points on the board to lead the Austrian pair by two points and the Australian pre-series favourites, Matthew Belcher and Malcolm Page, who lie fifth, by nine points.
If the sun continues to shine and the winds to blow, who knows what the next days will bring? The maths will be brought into constant use (and the rusty cogs of the calculator will be heard whirring) before this regatta is over. Faith persists.

Economics Class Goes Downtown
Byline: Tony Gonzalez
As the bustling energy of school began to wind down, one economics class from Lake Zurich High School experienced a dose of frenzied economic activity when visiting three downtown locations.
Fifteen students and two teachers, Chris Bennett and Bill Helzer, led the group through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Federal Reserve Bank, and the Chicago Board of Trade.
After arriving from the train by 9 a.m., the group crossed one street to enter the Mercantile Exchange. The economics students watched future commodities being traded in two busy "pits" and heard a formal presentation on the action they observed. Students came away flashing the signs of the buyers and sellers, with pointing fingers and enthusiastic gestures.
Senior Vlad Kroshinsky felt the exchange operated with its own unique language, described as "two weeks of intensive hand training."
The Federal Reserve Bank proved to be the most educational and interesting stop of the day. Of all the locations, it was most thorough in security measures, giving a hard time to junior Derek Blanchard for his steel-toe boots.
"He's not one of my brightest students," joked Bennett as the detector continued to buzz.
While wandering through the public displays, students learned about the origins of U.S. currency, the development of the $10,000 bill and the measures taken by and against counterfeiters.
The Federal Reserve Bank also offered a presentation in which the "millions, billions, and trillions" were discussed by speaker Jerry Nelson. As a man of numbers, Nelson rattled off many statistics, including the number of bills brought to the bank each day, the $14 billion held at all times in the vaults, and random facts about how many gold bars, checks, and ATM machines are in the Chicago district of the Federal Reserve system. …

Damn crotch rockets, I'd never own one of those death traps!!!!
I may be fat but I'm slow enough to make up for it.
is today. For a street application, there really isnt a worse bike one can use, but,
they look cool and you get an intense rush winding up on the straights, so this has
become the new standard in determining a bikes worth. I have seen sooooo many
people get miles under thier belt and then move on to the dreaded Harley or
BMW type 'olde mans' bike because the reality is that they are soooo much more
enjoyable to ride on public roads for long periods of time
I may be fat but I'm slow enough to make up for it.
I may be old, but at least I'm not fat. Well, I'm fat, but at least I'm not stupid. Well, I'm on BF, so that's debatable, but at least I still have my house in this economy.
I think I just jinxed myself.
Very scary...Realistically, I could ride the 600 much faster. And, recently, the last
year they made the ZX-9 Kawi. Very nice motor, but then a curve came along........
in places you would not believe !! Do a search on adventurerider.com !!!
For the DR, I actually prefer the 21" frontee on the street. I think its more out
of familiarity, but the way it turns in on twisty roads at speed is a liitle more
predictable to me. Doing full lock powerslides on backroad pavement with slick,
new knobbies is too cool for words, too
the sake of riding and sightseeing, etc, this is where they end up.....
No fighting intended

The OP reminds me of buying the Sportster that I have now. My current wife was REALLY against the idea. After months of preparing her for the fact that I was going to buy one we were at my parent's one night and the issue came up. Her eyes got as big around as saucers, she knew she had me. You see, my parents are the epitome of overly-safe and conservative. However, she didn't know that my dad taught me to ride and we had both had bikes and rode together the last few years I lived at home. BACKFIRE!
To please your parents take the MSF safety course. It will also help on insurance and in some states substitute for the test for a motorcycle endorsement on your license.
Beyond that be very careful and be a little paranoid when riding. Ride as if everyone is out to get you.
The only reason I survived my first five years of motorcycling is because I had 15+ previous years experience as a road cyclist target for the cagers. I was already familiar with avoiding them. By the way, if you see some kid driving a car with a backwards or sideways ball cap, they're an idiot. If they can't even put a cap on straight, count on them being unable to drive their car.
Here's a couple more good ones...

Scary, but nice !
Bikes, love bikes
Here are my current ones
Here is a shot of one I sold a couple of years ago. You know that feelng you get when you watch the new owner ride off..The feeling, "WHY DID I SELL THAT BIKE". That feeling has never left me, daymn... My Norton rat, it started life with me as a Norton Interstate.
Con, what is up with the front brake on the Norton? Is is a solid disc with an unusual wear pattern?

although I don't own a bike ( my friends talked me out of it last summer) i have crashed one...it sucks..and it hurts......and that was without getting run over by another car or truck...hitting the pavement sucks enough...but i completely understand the alure of motorcycles...for all the accidents i've been to at work, my crash, and seeing my friend messed up from a crash ( hes fine now thank god) I have to say..there is still something inside me screaming "GET ONE!!!".
On a side note + 1 on the enduro's thats what I was looking at, then found out what a supermoto was and fell in love

A New London Superior Court judge sentenced 48-year-old Kevin Bialowas to 15 years in prison Monday, telling Bialowas he had taken away everything Stephen Germano had when he struck him with his pickup truck and fled the scene on July 14, 2009 in Norwich.
Bialowas, initially charged with murder, had been convicted by a jury in October of the lesser crimes of second-degree manslaughter and evading responsibility.
According to the state, Bialowas, driving a Ford F-150 pickup truck, hit Germano, 33, at the intersection of Elm Avenue and East Town Street during a dispute involving Bialowas' female passenger, Jennifer Sanford. Germano died of blunt traumatic injuries.
Bialowas, who had been released from a halfway house hours earlier after serving a six-month stint for tax evasion, did not stop or report the incident to police.
"I find it significant that this event took place on the day you were released from prison, which calls into question your ability to be a productive member of society," Hadden said.
Defense attorney John Franckling had argued for a shorter sentence for Bialowas, who he said had been threatened by Germano, who was speaking on the phone with Sanford during a seven-mile chase that began at her home in Baltic.
"He was being pursued by a very large, very angry, very violent man," Franckling said.
Bialowas had attempted to back up his truck when Germano exited his vehicle but had nowhere to go, according to Franckling.
"The jury rejected very rapidly the state's contention that there was intent on Kevin's part," Franckling said. "They did find he was reckless."
Prosecutor Stephen M. Carney had asked the judge to impose a lengthy sentence. In his summary of the crime, Carney said Bialowas, who dated Sanford before he went to prison and kept in touch with her during his incarceration, had gone to Sanford's home in Baltic hours after he was released from a halfway house. He encountered Germano, who he knew had been pimping out Sanford as a prostitute at Mohegan Sun while Bialowas was incarcerated.
"Mr. Bialowas couldn't exactly be described as Richard Gere in 'Pretty Woman' in light of what happened next," Carney said.
Bialowas and Sanford left together, and Germano began following them. At the Norwich intersection, Carney said Bialowas put his truck into drive, uttered an obscenity, and drove directly into Germano, whose body came to rest on the hood of the car before Bialowas turned the wheel and Germano fell off.
Bialowas' parents, siblings and children were in the courtroom for his sentencing.
Nobody was present on behalf of Germano, a Milford, Mass., native who grew up in a tumultuous family environment, according to testimony.
Germano's cousin, Michael Evangelista, said he had hoped to attend the sentencing but was unable to travel here from Texas.
In an email sent to The Day this weekend, Evangelista referred to Bialowas as "a coward."
"All that Stephen Germano wanted that day was to have a good American fist fight with the man who took his girl and he would have walked away, never bothering anybody again," Evangelista wrote.
"But instead, he did not stand in front of a man, he stood in front of a coward who drove his car at him trying to run him over because he was scared."

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) -- A custody case over one of Sarah Palin's grandchildren has been closed.
RELATED: Young Celeb Grandparents
State court records show that the case between Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston involving their son, Tripp, was closed earlier this month after a lack of activity.
Johnston attorney Rex Butler says the best way to interpret this is that the parties are likely to work out their differences on their own.
RELATED: Celeb Plastic Surgery Transformations
In 2010, Bristol Palin and Johnston agreed Bristol would have primary physical custody and the two would share legal custody, subject to Bristol's resolution if they couldn't agree.
Bristol Palin and Tripp appeared on the recent Lifetime series "Bristol Palin: Life's a Tripp," in which Johnston's presence in his son's life, or lack thereof, was part of the story line. The website TMZ reported last month that Johnston wanted full custody.
An attorney for Bristol Palin didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

Everything you need to know about the new Mercedes CLA-Class
The all-new highly-anticipated 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA is just two days away from launch and Mercedes has a new video telling us everything you need to know.
The all-new highly-anticipated 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA is just two days away from launch and Mercedes has a new video telling us everything you need to know.
On the first day of the set of "The Reach," Michael Douglas is very impressed with his new co-star, the new Mercedes G63 AMG 6X6 monster truck.
A new video just released by Mercedes-Benz shows the new 2014 S-Class being the first vehicle in the world capable of self-driving.
Brabus is to AMG what AMG is to Mercedes-Benz. They take high-performance cars and make them insanely fast. Brabus is the ultimate Mercedes tuner.
Mercedes is launching a global offensive with their new premium compacts and the new CLA250 is creating a new buzz for the brand and it has finally arrived on U.S. shores.
Want the ultimate in luxury performance? It didn't take Mercedes-AMG long to do their magic on the new S-Class and they have unleashed the 2014 Mercedes S63 AMG.
The new 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA is the first Mercedes compact SUV and quite possibly it's the sportiest compact SUV on the planet.
It's a great time to buy a diesel here in the U.S. as Mercedes announces their new 2014 E250 BlueTEC sedan that gets an astounding 45 mpg.
How many automakers could pull this off? The all-new 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class gets more horsepower, and new high-tech luxury features yet gets a drop in price over the outgoing model.
The design philosophy of Mercedes-Benz is optimized in the all-new Concept S-Class-Coupe and it "exudes emotional appeal." But it also comes with incredible intelligence.
Mercedes just released a teaser image and video of the new Concept S-Class Coupe and gives us 26 seconds of pure eye-candy.
If you think performance cars are going away, don't tell performance enthusiasts in the UK. Registrations for Mercedes-AMG vehicles are way up.
Only Mercedes-Benz could think of putting this kind of luxury in the new 2014 S-Class. And guests are treated to two world's firsts in the luxury sedan.
Mercedes announces the sexy new Mercedes S-Class Coupe Concept that will make its global debut at the Frankfurt IAA next week.
Mercedes-AMG GmgH has had great success in the past producing a customer sport racing car in the SLS AMG GT3 and will likely offer an affordable CLA 45 AMG race car in the future.
This is why we love Mercedes here at Torque News. Mercedes-AMG doesn't waste any time turning a new vehicle into a high-power performance model.

A big step forward for both companies

More than 81 percent of S&P 500 companies paid dividends in
the first quarter of the year, the highest number since 1999, an
increase that is putting U.S. stock dividend payments on track to
reach a record $300 billion this year.
But the rising total dollar value of dividend payments for U.S.
stocks is more a function of a growing number of companies starting
to make quarterly payouts rather than a simple case of generosity,
S&P Dow Jones senior index analyst Howard Silverblatt told
IndexUniverse. Think of Apple in 2012 coming in with a $10 billion
payout-or other companies, such as banks, resuming dividend
payments, he said.
In any case, dividend-focused
are right in the middle of that traffic, and investors are
gravitating to them as an alternative to what are plainly paltry
bond yields on risk-free government debt. Inflows into payout-rich
ETFs have easily topped $60 billion in the past year, according to
data compiled by IndexUniverse.
The payouts are alluring and exceed the 2 percent that a 10-year
Treasury note yields. The $11.16 billion SPDR S&P Dividend ETF
(NYSEArca:SDY) is currently paying a 30-day SEC yield of 2.55
percent-the 30-day SEC yield is a standardized yield that reflects
dividends and interest earned minus expenses. That yield is just
shy of the 2.61 percent weighted average for all dividend payments
in the quarter.
SDY's first-quarter inflows totaled $357 million, and its share
price rose 15 percent.
The $5.4 billion Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (NYSEArca:VYM)
attracted a net of $588 million in the first three months of the
year while rallying some 13 percent. The $2.8 billion iShares High
Dividend Equity Index Fund (NYSEArca:HDV) pulled in $454 million in
the same period, according to data compiled by IndexUniverse.
A Slowly Rising Tide
Outside of the S&P 500 universe, 46.1 percent of companies
paid dividends on common stocks in the first quarter, up nearly 3
percentage points from the previous quarter and significantly
higher than the 41 percent serving up payouts a year earlier.
What's more, all 30 members of the Dow Jones industrial average
paid dividends in the first quarter of this year.
"These companies are not being generous yet," Silverblatt said.
"But at the end of the day, more companies are paying dividends,
and some in higher dollar amounts."
Actual cash payments ticked 12 percent higher in the first
quarter relative to the same period a year earlier, according to
S&P Dow Jones data. A total of 944 firms increased their
payouts-nearly 40 percent more companies than the 677 that did in
the same year-earlier period, according to S&P Dow Jones
In all, net dividend payment increases reached $14.5 billion in
the first three months of 2013-well below the year-earlier
comparison, though that comes with an important caveat.
Indeed, that increase rate was only about half the net increase
seen in the comparison between the 2012 and 2011 first-quarter
comparison, when net increases exceeded $29 billion for the first
quarter of last year.
"But this figure represents a much more relevant improvement,
because in the first quarter of 2012, payouts were still coming off
sharp lows seen in the previous year," Silverblatt noted.
"We went so far down in 2011, that in 2012 we were still coming
back-there was an enormous amount of ground to cover," Silverblatt
said of dividend payments. "But now we are clearly past that
recovery period, we are building stability and we are seeing more
continued growth."
The weighted dividend yield for the quarter was, as noted, 2.61
percent, according to Silverblatt's estimates, down from 2.8
percent in the previous quarter and only marginally higher than
year-earlier comparisons.
"The lower yield is the result of the strong 10 percent equity
increase in the first quarter," Silverblatt said. "Dividend yields
remain relatively attractive compared to other instruments such as
corporate bonds, Treasurys and bank CDs, especially considering the
new 'permanent' tax rate, which, while higher than last year,
maintains preferential treatment for dividends."
What's more, despite a surge in dividend payments late in 2012
as companies looked to avoid potential higher taxes this year-an
event that inflated total 2012 dividend payments to $281.5
billion-payouts are expected to exceed $300 billion in 2013, which,
as noted would be a record.
"Even if not a single company increases dividend payments
anymore this year, we will hit $300 billion," said Silverblatt.
"The dividend cycle is solidly back on the upward track, with
investors and companies viewing them positively," he added.

Christmas tree hunting season is now open.
Starting this week, permits to cut Christmas trees in the Umatilla National Forest and the Wallowa Whitman National Forest are available at local Forest Service offices and commercial outlets. The permits are $5 each and valid for cutting one tree on forest land.
Permits are limited to one per household and do not authorize cutting on private, state, or other federal lands, said Joani Bosworth, Umatilla National Forest public information officer.
One change this year is that permits will not be available for purchase in the Tollgate area. People who want to cut trees in that area need to purchase their permit before heading up the mountain, Bosworth said.
After cutting a tree, the permit should be securely attached to the tree trunk between the limbs. The permit also needs to be visible during transport.
Forest officials ask that trees be cut at least 50 feet away from a roadway. Tree cutting is also prohibited within 200 feet of the Bluewood or Spout Springs Ski Areas, summer home sites, Tollgate Work Center and Forest Service guard stations.
Christmas tree cutting in the Pomeroy Ranger District is prohibited on Park and Cook Ridges and in the Lick Creek area, including Sheep Creek, Cabin, Capehorn and Mud Springs ridges.
People cutting trees should clean up all trimmings and limbs and leave stumps no higher than 10 inches. Green limbs left off the stump should be cut off and used for decoration.
As a final note, forest officials cautioned that anyone going into the woods should be prepared for sudden weather changes and check with local ranger stations for road conditions.
"Keep your family and your own safety in mind as you head to the forest," said Kerry Sherman, resource specialist for the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest. "Carry a forest map, snacks, water and dress warm."

Yonkers High sophomore Marianna Monaco led Section 1bowlers with a 203.53 average. Matthew Brown/The Journal News
Before the bowling season, there were many things Marianna Monaco already knew. She knew she wanted to average a 210. She knew she wanted to qualify for the state tournament. She knew she wanted to be a vocal leader.
One thing she didn't know was that her grandmother was very ill and fighting for her life.
Monaco still approached the season with her Yonkers teammates the same way, but the reason for doing so was different.
"When I found out, I dedicated the season to my grandma and I wanted to achieve all my goals for her," Monaco said. "I knew that it was going to be a tough few months for me."
With her grandmother in a hospital and working to recover, The Journal News' Westchester/Putnam girls bowler of the year managed to maintain her focus and achieve her goals.
"She gave me a lot of encouragement, and she told me not to worry because she was going to make it and be there when I bowled my first 300," Monaco said.
In the midst of her concerns about her grandma's recovery, the sophomore exceeded her goal the first half of the season, averaging 221 per game. At that point, Monaco decided it was time for a new challenge.
"I knew I would become a better bowler if I started working on different things," Monaco said. "I started trying different shots, using balls that wouldn't react as much. I switched things around when I was confident that nobody was going to take it from me."
When Monaco changed her game, it resulted in a drop in her scores. Despite that, she finished the season with a 203.53 average, the highest in Section 1.
Yonkers coach Enrique Rosario recognizes Monaco's strength as one of the primary reasons for her success on the lanes.
"When she first came to the team as an eighth-grader and threw the ball down the lane, it was fast and hard," Rosario said. "Since then, her style of bowling has not changed. She still sends that ball down the same way. She's an incredible athlete and is just so physically strong."
Although Monaco did not average a 210, she did qualify for the state tournament and is looking forward to her final two seasons at Yonkers.
"I should improve and make it to states the next two seasons," Monaco said. "This season, I developed a different type of game and realized I was versatile."
Monaco finished the season happy with her success, but there was something else that put a bigger smile on her face.
"My grandmother made it through something that most people don't make it through," she said. "This season, just like always, my priorities are family, practice, dedication and what's best for those around me and my team. Next season it will be the same."
Also named to The Journal News all-star first team:
Jeanna Brown, Mahopac: In 48 games, Brown's total pinfall was 8,981, a 187.1 average.
Melissa Fisch, Scarsdale: Fisch had a 173 average. The Scarsdale bowler had the high series in the Section 1 tournament with a 1,255. Fisch also had the high game, a 255.
Amira Sealy, Peekskill: Sealy averaged a 170. In the Cortlandt League, she had the high series with a 602 and highest game with a 238.
Danielle Semp, Yonkers: Semp had a 172 average. The Bulldogs' bowler showed her potential in matches against Clark, where she bowled a 205, and in the Gorton match, where she bowled a 211.
Coach of the year
Enrique Rosario, Yonkers: The Bulldogs finished with a 91-2 record, continuing their dominant run of the past three seasons.
Second team: Angela DiRenno, Panas; Lauren Klarsfeld, Ardsley; Lori Miller, Ardsley; Amber Okin, Yonkers; Christina Stoll, Panas.
Honorable mention: Jasmine Berrios, Lakeland; Sarah Frederick, Mamaroneck; Emily Levin, Scarsdale; Carly Mannino, Woodlands.

Ship Traffic
NOAA Makes Recommendations to Reduce Collisions with Whales
NOAA this week urged ship captains to use new recommended routes when entering or leaving the Florida ports of Jacksonville and Fernandina, and Brunswick, Ga., as well as in Cape Cod Bay off Massachusetts. These new routes are expected to reduce the chances of ship strikes with endangered right whales. The recommended routes take into account safety and economic impact to the mariner. Although the routes are voluntary, they will appear on both electronic and paper NOAA nautical charts no later than November 30. The new designations will help mariners decrease whale strikes by reducing vessel activity in areas frequented by ships and whales. North Atlantic right whales are among the most endangered marine mammal populations in the world, and are highly vulnerable to ship collisions. Pregnant females and females with calves are known to have been struck by ships along the east coast in recent years. The right whale population is small--around 300--and many scientists believe recovery has stalled, making the few reproductively active females even more important to population recovery. Right whales typically travel south from waters off Canada and New England to calving and nursery areas off Florida and Georgia in winter, traversing areas frequented by large ships. Females and their calves then return to more northerly feeding grounds, aggregating in Cape Cod Bay during the spring, also an area with substantial ship traffic.
Bisso Marine Salvages Crewboat
Bisso Marine salvaged a 110-ft. crewboat in Sabine Pass, TX. The crewboat which was involved in collision with a ship rolled over and sank in approximately 50 ft. of water with the stern of the capsized vessel ultimately resting on the bottom and the bow keel floating above the surface. The sunken crewboat was positioned in the middle of the channel such that the Sabine Pass was closed by the USCG creating a problem for inbound and out bound ship traffic whose cargos are loaded and
North Atlantic Right Whale Management Measures
In August 2001, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) proposed ship traffic management measures as a means of reducing the incidence of ship strikes and resulting fatalities of the North Atlantic Right Whale. There are approximately 350 surviving Right Whales, and they are considered to be the most endangered of the large mammals. Through federal regulation, the NMFS implemented a "mandatory ship reporting system" to increase the industry's awareness of the problem and encourage the
Muddy Footprints: Satellite's View of Ship Pollution
Long tracks of elevated nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels show up along certain shipping routes when viewed from NASA's Aura satellite. For more than a decade, scientists have observed "ship tracks" in natural-color satellite imagery of the ocean. These bright, linear trails amidst the cloud layers are created by particles and gases from ships. They are a visible manifestation of pollution from ship exhaust, and scientists can now see that ships have a more subtle, almost invisible
Bar Pilots, New Orleans, Choose Raven TMS
Raven Aerostar say that the Associated Branch Pilots of the Port of New Orleans (Bar Pilots) has selected its Traffic Management System. The system provides increased situational intelligence for Port of New Orleans ship pilots. Raven Aerostar's marine navigation aid systems are used by ship pilots in over a dozen ports in the U.S. The Bar Pilots recently ordered 35 Raven Traffic Management Systems, including the company's latest rate of turn sensor, Revolve.

Northwest Passage Wrecks Hunt Launched
The Canadian government launches its largest search yet for the lost ships of Sir John Franklin's doomed 1845 quest for the Northwest Passage.

A previous large-scale search for the Franklin ships was launched by National Defence in 1967 as part of Canada's
Arctic Nautical Charts: NOAA Plans Updates
Less sea ice and more ship traffic means new charts needed for safety. NOAA's Office of Coast Survey has issued an updated Arctic Nautical Charting Plan , as a major effort to improve inadequate chart coverage for Arctic areas experiencing increasing vessel traffic due to ice diminishment. NOAA plans to create 14 new charts to complement the existing chart coverage. For example, seven of the charts will complete chart coverage from the Alaska Peninsula to Cape Lisburne at the edge of

Antiques Considered - January 11, 2012
- Details
- Last Updated on Saturday, 05 January 2013 22:03
- Published on Tuesday, 10 January 2012 21:46
- Hits: 1025
This past Saturday our family paid our annual visit to the Washington Winter Show, always one of the finest antique shows in America. Again this year housed at the Katzen Center at American university, the show hosted 45 of the nation's premier antique dealers, who brought some of their finest treasures.
The theme of this year's show was entitled, "Celebrating The White House."
The welcoming exhibit featured items for the Executive Mansion's earliest years down to the present. The catalog of the show contains wonderful articles about The White House and the antiques that have passed through it over the past two centuries.
The exhibits were truly awesome. Of particular regional interest was that of A Bird In The Hand Antiques from
Florham Park, New Jersey, which included some superb Virginia and Maryland stoneware. The dealer, Ron Bassin, is particularly knowledgeable on the topic, and I enjoyed chatting with him about his Peter Hermann crocks from Baltimore and the variety of Shenandoah Valley jugs and crocks.
With stoneware the maker's name makes the big difference in determining value. Peter Hermann's pieces have clearly incised stamps bearing his name. Shenandoah Valley crocks by the Bell family and Alexandria ones by the Milburn and Smith families are the most popular in this area. The quality of the blue decoration is another factor in assigning value. This year's show had some splendid examples, and they were selling well.
This year's show chair was Amy Zantzinger, whose husband's grandparents were Dick and Isabel Zantzinger, the owners of Westhatton Plantation across the Potomac not far into Charles County. She and her committee put together an outstanding presentation, which the public clearly relished. Each year I find the show to be one of the best teaching tools for novice collectors and connoisseurs alike. Each booth contains the highest caliber wares, hosted by wonderfully informed dealers who enjoy telling visitors all they know about their pieces. The show is always great, but this one was especially brilliant.
Next week I shall speak of some of the other dealers and the great collections they assembled for the show.
Happy Antiquing...

HSS if shutterspeed is lower than 1/250s
Mar 6, 2013
Hello to all,
How will a Canon 430exII behave if it is set on HSS and the camera shutterspeed is lower than max sync speed (eg. 1/250s or slower) ?
Are there any disadvantages compared to set up the flash on First Curtain ?
I'm asking because I just purchased some TTL triggers (YN622c), and I notice that when I power up the triggers, the transmitter is put by default on HSS (even if my shutter speed is lower than 1/250s).
Sure, I can change it back to first curtain; but what if I forget and I use it in HSS mode with shutter speed lower than 1/250s ?
Thanks in advance for your feeback.
Yves from Belgium.
