Held annually January 4 – 12 at various locations around Palm Beach County, Supercar Week presented by PBIR includes private VIP and public parties, opening day of the Polo Season at the International Polo Club Palm Beach in Wellington, a Track Day event at Palm Beach International Raceway, Supercar at The Gardens in Palm Beach Gardens, Media Day, Supercar at The Norton Museum of Art, Supercar Auction America, an art auction of significant exotics, classics and specialty vehicles and an art exhibition, this year entitled "The History of Formula 1," and the grand finale Supercar SuperShow, held Sunday January 12th on the West Palm Beach Waterfront.
More than 50,000 people and 600 cars are expected for the 2014 Supercar Week presented by PBIR, including supercars, race cars, classics, muscle cars, high performance sports cars, electric and 'green' cars and art cars.
Celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2014, Palm Beach International Raceway is a state-of-the-art motorsports and entertainment facility. Purchased in 2008 by a group of local motorsports enthusiasts, the track underwent a $20 million upgrade and now features a challenging 2.034-mile asphalt Road Course, 1/4-mile concrete Drag Strip, and 8/10-mile Kart Track. The facility is popular for testing with teams from all forms of racing; IndyCar Series teams use the track for winter testing, as do several sports car teams from the Tudor United Sports Car Championship. Driving schools, testing sessions, private rentals, and corporate team-building events are held at PBIR year-round. Located in Jupiter, Florida, PBIR is the official home of the Palm Beach Driving Club®, MRP Motorsport, and Driven2Win Drag Racing School.
"We're confident that the 2014 Supercar Week presented by Palm Beach International Raceway is a win-win situation for both organizations," says Jason Rittenberry, President and CEO of IRG Sports + Entertainment™, the parent company of PBIR. "It provides us with an opportunity to directly engage with our demographic and increase enthusiast participation in the Palm Beach Driving Club. And for the owners of these magnificent cars, PBIR is the only place in South Florida where they can develop their driving skills and utilize their cars at the levels for which they were designed. And hopefully, once they've been introduced to our facility, they'll come back as fans for the racing events that take place at one of our tracks practically every week."
Celebrating its 50th Anniversary, Supercar Week presenting sponsors Palm Beach International Raceway and the Palm Beach Driving Club have planned an incredible driving experience day for professional, intermediate and beginning level drivers and their cars. Activities include a full day road course driving experience, as well as drag strip or autocross. Enthusiasts can drive their own vehicle on the track or ride as a passenger with professional drivers in specially performance enhanced race cars. Supercar Week sponsors, their vehicles and race teams will be on display and both vendor and catered food and beverages will be available.
"Our new relationship with PBIR is a big step forward for both Supercar Week and all automotive enthusiasts in South Florida," says Neil London, President and Executive Producer of Supercar Week, Inc. and Managing Director of ICTV1 Networks. "With this high-demographic event drawing national and international attention to the automotive scene in Palm Beach County and the ready availability of a world-class facility where owners can both race their own cars and attend a wide variety of professional racing events, we have the elements in place to create a major automotive 'happening.' The city has offered us space that will allow us to again double the size of the event, which will certainly happen in the next few years as more enthusiasts from around the world make this their winter automotive pilgrimage, and more automotive and lifestyle manufacturers begin to take advantage of the marketing opportunities."
All of the Supercar Week events have been created as media occasions for film and TV, with Palm Beach-based ICTV1 providing full event coverage and streaming live worldwide on ICTV1.com.
The event schedule includes:
Saturday January 4 / V I P Supercar Week Kickoff Party from 6 pm to 9 pm

Looks great and bolts/laces right up. I actually bought this for a 2003 450 SX, but the website doesn't list this bike as being compatible with this hub. As far as I know, there were no changes to the rear wheels between the two models. At least nothing that would affect hub compatibility. I used the spacers it was shipped with.

Police force here is holding a woman for stabbing to death a man suspected to be her 'lover' in a fight whose source was yet to be established.
Arusha regional police commander Thobias Andengenye confirmed the incident, naming the deceased as Abiud Lema, whose age is estimated to be between 60 and 65.
The RPC named the woman who is suspected to be behind the killing as Sabina Shirima (29), a resident of Sanawari area, one of the popular suburbs in Arusha. He explained that the incident occurred on Tuesday night at around 11pm at Sanawari area and police were still interrogating the suspected woman.
RPC Andengenye said earlier investigations show that the deceased was stabbed by a steak knife on his left leg, causing him to bleed profusely.
"Our officer, who went to the scene, found blood stains scattered all over the room, " he said, adding: "We're still investigating the incident and cannot conclude that his death was caused by overbleeding. The doctor who did the postmortem is yet to release the report," he said. Aluya Swai who is the sister of the deceased said the late Lema was working as a driver with commuter buses plying between Arusha and Moshi.
"We still don't know what happened, because during the confrontation only the two of them were in the room. We're waiting for the police to tell us as to why the suspect killed the deceased," she said, while shedding tears.
She said that the late Lema was stabbed in a house, close to his own in Sanawari area and that the suspect informed the local government leaders in the area, who took the deceased to hospital.
One of Lema's children, Anandumi said: "The cause of my father's death remains uncertain as it does not make sense to me that the lady is the one who killed him. I went into the house; the blood was on the floor only. Her bed and the door had no blood at all."
He added that the lady who is suspected to be behind the killing was very new in his eyes. "We're waiting for the police report," he said.
The late Lema is survived by a wife and seven children and the body was preserved at Mount Meru Regional Hospital's mortuary.

These critically acclaimed American television series have broken new ground in popular entertainment. If you haven't seen them yet, use the following links to catch up on these pioneering programs that challenged the generic conventions of network TV and deeply influenced American culture, generating devoted cult followings and changing forever the way we watch television.
BREAKING BAD (AMC) - Seasons 1-4
Breaking Bad is the award-winning story of Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a struggling high school chemistry teacher who, with the help of former student Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul), turns to producing and selling methamphetamine to support his family after he learns he has inoperable lung cancer. Now in its 5th and final season, its final eight episodes will air in August 2013. Check Pratt catalog
FREAKS & GEEKS (NBC) - One season
The short-lived (18 episodes) teen drama that many consider to be Judd Apatow's crowning achievement addressed cliques and identity issues at a fictional Michigan high school in the '80s, while launching the careers of Seth Rogan and James Franco. Check Pratt catalog
GAME OF THRONES (HBO) - Seasons 1 & 2
Based on George R. R. Martin's best-selling A Song of Ice and Fire fantasy novels, HBO's adaptation of the power struggle to rule the Iron Throne of Westeros thrilled viewers with its bloody battles, bawdy beddings, and barbaric beheadings and created a pop cultural phenomenon every bit as epic as Martin's books. Check Pratt catalog
SEINFELD (NBC) - Seasons 1-6
Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld's show about "nothing" reveled in life's minutiae with a cast of adult Freaks and Geeks, creating one of TV's most devoted cult followings and spawning Larry David's spin-off HBO comedy Curb Your Enthusiasm. Check Pratt catalog
THE SOPRANOS (HBO) - Seasons 1-6
The Writers Guild of America named HBO's New Jersey mob saga the best-written TV series ever screened in the US, adding, "No show has been more responsible for TV's storytelling renaissance." As Tony Soprano, the recently departed James Gandolfini (1963-2013)'s struggles with domestic life and his complex relationship with his shrink made the show much more than a simple crime story. Check Pratt catalog
24 (Fox) - Seasons 1-5
Each 24-episode of 24 covered 24 hours in the life of Counter Terrorist agent Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutrherland), using a real-time narration method to chronicle his race against the clock to thwart terrorist plots. Though controversial for its "ends justify the means" depictions of torture, it won numerous awards and remains the longest-running American TV espionage series ever. Check Pratt catalog
TWIN PEAKS (ABC) Season 1
Mark Frost and David Lynch's series about FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan)'s investigation of the murder of homecoming queen Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee) was genre-defying, deftly switching tone between Norman Rockwell Americana and surrealistic creepiness – all underscored by Angelo Badalamenti's brooding soundtrack music. Check Pratt catalog
THE WIRE (HBO) – Seasons 1-5
The Wire should be required viewing for anyone living in Baltimore. Despite only receiving modest ratings and never winning any major television awards in its five seasons (2002-2008) on HBO, David Simon's gritty crime drama was a favorite with critics, many of whom called it one of the greatest TV dramas of all time.

The new elongated Speed Pocket of the TaylorMade SpeedBlade Irons delivers more speed, forgiveness, and distance of any TaylorMade iron. The Speed Pocket creates a faster face and more ball speed across a larger area of the face: from the center, down low, towards the toe, and towards the heel. Combine that with the lowest center of gravity (CG) of any TaylorMade distance iron, and the SpeedBlade is easier to launch for a high, strong, penetrating flight.
New elongated Speed Pocket delivers more ball speed across a larger area of the face.
Lowest CG of any TaylorMade distance iron for easy launch and high flight.
The advanced head structure, Speed Pocket polymer, and multi-material badge absorb unwanted vibration to promote fantastic sound and feel. Each iron comes individually engineered to optimized distance, trajectory, control, and spin, thus balancing the distance gaps between each iron. That makes every iron in your bag a valuable asset, and the excellent long-iron distance closes the gap between your longest iron and shortest metal wood.
The Tour-inspired, Tour-shaped wedges feature blade-style construction for a great feel, and the ATV sole found in the sand and lob wedges allows for improved versatility from all lies.
Five years ago, we challenged ourselves to create the best distance iron we could. We've taken everything we've learned in that time and made our most complete iron ever in SpeedBlade. It's combination of distance, performance, and forgiveness is unmatched.

Susie replies:
If you continue having sex after ejaculation while using a condom but the condom doesn't break and there is hardly any semen in the condom what are the chances of pregnancy? Could the semen have seeped out? Is this likely???
The instructions on every packet of condoms I have ever seen (including condoms in countries outside the United States) clearly state that once the man has ejaculated, he needs to withdraw and dispose of the condom promptly. Proper withdrawal means you grip the ring firmly, pull out completely and slide the condom off (by the ring! Obviously you don't just pull it off at the tip 'cause that's messy, and risks rubber-band-like snap-back). Proper disposal means tie off the condom and toss it in the rubbish. Do not flush down the toilet.
The reason you must stop once ejaculation is complete is that the penis loses its erection pretty quickly after orgasm. Once the erection starts to subside, the condom immediately loosens, and you'll risk seepage and slippage -- generally termed as condom failure and improper use. Essentially, if you do not follow the direction to a T, then the condom's effectiveness cannot be guaranteed. So is there a chance of pregnancy? With an improperly used condom, yes there is.

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) - Passing yards are easy to come by when playing the Washington Redskins, to the point where other offenses have figured out they don't need to run the ball nearly as much.
Teams are throwing 58.8 percent of the time against the Redskins on first-and-10, gaining 8.4 yards per pass. It's pretty hard to stop the other team when they keep getting second-and-1s or second-and-2s.
Washington ranks last in the NFL in pass defense, negating much of the production of a revitalized offense under rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III.
Says defensive coordinator Jim Haslett: "We've got to fix the back end."
The Redskins play the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- WUSA 9 wants you! You or someone in your family could have his/her face in our new promotion.
The most important two letters in "WUSA 9" are "US."
The images, pulled from the frames of video above, show a collage of faces in the letters "U" and "S."
We want your face to be a part of that collage.
So, upload your photos and videos here: http://on.wusa9.com/VvFoKW
We'll select a bunch of your photos and videos to be part of our ad that runs during the Grammy Awards on Sunday, February 10. Millions of people will get to see "U" as part of "US" here at wUSa9.
Here's an important message from WUSA 9's Marketing Director, Sandra Gehring:
You may have noticed that in January we modified the name of the station and our newscasts. We are very proud to be WUSA 9. We made the change because communication today is a shared, engaging two-way experience. The name of our television station was updated to take advantage of great call letters that are symbolic of our brand promise. Just like the U.S.A., we are dedicated to being inclusive, real, engaged, honest and original. That's a perfect description of the WUSA 9 brand.
We've worked to craft a Super Bowl commercial that demonstrates why WUSA 9 will provide real-life solutions, is mindful of your time, will be open and available 24/7, is realistic but also focused on where the story is going, not where it's already been. In this commercial you will see people who look, act and feel just like you do, because you are the pivot point for everything our television station must do. Like the American flag, WUSA 9 must provide and support our customer in ways that are inclusive and meaningful...that is the difference between an advertising campaign and a genuine communication commitment.
We've decided to pre-release the commercials online and in social media, because you live in a multi-platform world and we get that. The aspect that I'm particularly jazzed about today is putting the U is WUSA 9... beginning today and all year long we want to include U in everything we do, including our commercials. Viewers and users can upload a picture or a video that represents "you" or "us" to them personally and they will start seeing themselves on the air when we start using their pictures the night of the Grammy's, Feb. 10th.

All ST's Front-end Manufacturing Sites Achieve ISO 50001 Energy-Management Certification
STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, has announced that all six of its front-end1 manufacturing sites have achieved certification to the latest, most stringent ISO 500012 energy-management standard.
ST's Agrate site in Italy was the first to achieve the ISO 50001 certification, followed quickly by Catania in Italy and ST's other front-end sites in France (Crolles, Rousset, Tours), and Singapore (Ang Mo Kio). Each manufacturing site is committed to implementing energy-performance indicators to both monitor and optimize its consumption of electricity and natural gas and explore all opportunities to minimize the amount of energy used, reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
"Environmental performance and energy management are rooted in ST's culture and have been a priority since the creation of the Company. We had started to upgrade our energy-management systems in anticipation of ISO 50001 before the standard was finalized. Today, our products and technologies are recognized as enabling low energy consumption for the end user. It is completely complementary now for our manufacturing sites producing those products to be certified; an acknowledgement of the substantial work undertaken at sites for better energy consumption and management," said Edwin Dobson, Director Facilities, Front-End Manufacturing and Technologies, STMicroelectronics.

THE JINDABYNE BUSHPIGS have become the first team in 29 years of Jindabyne Rugby Union history to secure a home grand final. In front of packed John Connors Oval crowd, the Bushpigs ground out a nail baiting 14-13 win over Taralga Tigers.
Having to play each other for the fourth time this season, both teams who had each recorded a win, withthe other result ending in draw, knew that the end result of this game was the most important of all - a home grand final.
The match began at a frantic pace, with the Bushpigs coming out with plenty of fire in the belly. In early exchanges the Bushpigs defence led by hooker Daniel Josifovski and captain-coach Matt Tripet were giving the Tigers plenty to think about with some bone crunching tackles.
The forward pack was at its best, putting ascendency on the Taralga pack with a number of turn over balls in the ruck and through the scrum.
The Bushpigs advanced on some field possession early on with five-eight Matthew Caldwell accurately kicking with the breeze to put the Tigers under constant pressure. The Bushpigs pack took great control around the break down with a series of phases to put the Bushpigs in the lead early on after a penalty kick from Andrew McDonald.
The Bushpigs continued to apply the early pressure as Taku Tairoa and John Field churned up the metres with some great runs. However, the only way the Bushpigs managed to pick up points was only through another penalty as the Tigers defence tried to hold out.
As the game began to settle in, so did the Tigers, working themselves back into it. The Tigers took advantage of a number penalties to lock the score at 6-6 with only a few minutes remaining in the half.
On the half time siren, Michael Needham went agonising close to extending the lead further for the Bushpigs which resulted in a Bushpigs penalty. McDonald again stepped up to the plate to send the home side in front 9-6 after a tight first half.
The Bushpigs came out of the sheds at the half knowing that they had to take full advantage of possession to ensure they took out the game.
From the kick off, great work around the ruck from Steve Rompannen and Ian Vagg ensured the Bushpigs turned the ball early on. The Bushpigs continued to press the Tigers line with Liam Pepper, Dave Akkersdyk and Michael Bottom running great lines to put the Bushpigs in great position to score. The forwards controlled the break down with Matt Fish, Tripet and Needham taking on the line a number of times. After almost 10 phases with the ball, the Bushpigs were rewarded with try through Needham to extend the lead to 14-6.
With the eight point buffer and plenty of time on the clock the game was certainly for the taking for both teams. The Tigers began to pick themselves up as they did in the first half and take advantage of the breeze to camp the Bushpigs in their own half.
The Tigers threw everything at the Bushpigs, and were rewarded as their slippery five eight somehow managed to fine a hole through the solid Bushpigs defence. His try was converted and it was anyone's game from then on.
The final 10 minutes of the game was very much a nervous one if you were a Jindabyne fan.
The Bushpigs were well camped inside their own half defending for their lives to ensure no slip ups to give the Tigers the lead. However, some ill discipline from the Tigers and some heroic defence by the Bushpigs was enough to seal the elusive grand final in Jindabyne in two weeks time. As the final whistle blew, the loud Jindabyne faithful burst into a loud cheer as the Bushpigs players celebrated.
It was a gallant effort by the Bushpigs as coach Tripet said, "It's an honour to be wearing this jersey, with these men in front of our community to showcase what we did today. I have never been a part of team to show courage and determination then I did with the Bushpigs today."
Tripet reflected on the season and all the hard work that Bushpigs have put in to get to where they are. He stated 'The boys can go and enjoy this victory tonight, but from next week it will be a clear focus on the grand final in two weeks time. We want to bring this home for the Jindabyne community.'
The Bushpigs are the top team in the competition this season, deservingly taking out the rights to host the grand final on September 1st and will take on the winner of either Taralga Tigers/Crookwell Dogs who will be playing this weekend.
The Jindabyne Rugby Union Club encourages every person in the Snowy Mountain region to get behind them in the quest for the premiership . The grand final will be played at John Connors Oval, Jindabyne on September 1st with a 2.30pm kick off. Let's go PIGS.
JRUC weekend results: U10s lost 10-19 to St Edmunds; 12s won 19-7 against Marist 19/7; 13s won 25-19 against Tableands; 15s won 24- 19 against Wests; Sore Bores drew 9-9 against ACT Vets; Miss Piggies lost 10-37 to Royals; Bushpigs won 14-13 against Tarlaga.

Documenting new seabird-colony Important Bird Areas, finding previously undocumented colonies and colonies thought to be extirpated: these are just some of the exciting discoveries reported within Environmental Protection in the Caribbean's (EPIC's) ground-breaking Seabird Breeding Atlas of the Lesser Antilles.
Flooding at BirdLife's Woodbourne Shorebird Refuge in Barbados reduced the amount of suitable stop-over habitat for shorebirds this autumn, but this proved good for ducks and in September, two globally threatened West Indian Whistling-ducks turned up - the first time the species has been on the island for 50 years.
A new environmental study sharply critical of the Government of Barbados shows the key Graeme Hall mangrove wetland is disappearing due to outside pollution and poor water quality.
Fifteen to thirty thousand shorebirds are shot each year in a handful of managed shooting swamps on Barbados on their southbound migration. However, the tradition of hunting migratory shorebirds is changing. The old culture of 'kill as many as you can' is being replaced by a conservation ethic among hunters.

Pakpour Consulting Group Leads Municipal Civil Engineering with Ongoing Carbon Neutrality
Pakpour Consulting Group believes that environmental stewardship is everyone's responsibility, and as civil engineers tasked with providing safe, clean water and air to the communities it serves, PCG chose to be at the forefront of the fight against global warming and hope to lead other civil engineering firms to follow suit so it can become the first industry to achieve carbon neutrality.
"As a certified green business in Alameda County, going to a zero carbon footprint was the natural next step for us. Environmental stewardship is everyone's responsibility, and as civil engineers tasked with providing safe, clean water and air to our communities we should be at the forefront of the fight against global warming," stated Joubin Pakpour, P.E., president of Pakpour Consulting Group. "We hope other civil engineering firms will follow suit so we can become the first industry to achieve a zero footprint."
"Carbonfund.org's mission is to improve the world by helping people reduce their environmental footprint. Their goal is to provide a forum for the massive and growing, but mostly unconnected majority of people – whether they think of themselves as citizens or business people, parents or consumers, activists or theorists who want to do the right thing. Action is impossible without information. Pakpour Consulting Group is proud to be working with Carbonfund.org."
Pakpour Consulting Group provides comprehensive municipal civil engineering design and construction management services for a wide variety of public projects. Services include serving as contract district engineer, water distribution systems engineering, civil plan review, transportation engineering, sewer and storm drainage design, hydrology studies, program management services, constructability review and construction management.
Since 2007, Pakpour Consulting Group has monitored, measured and ultimately neutralized its environmental footprint. Pakpour Consulting Group offsets the carbon emissions used in producing its supplies such as paper and packaging and its office electricity by supporting Carbonfund.org's carbon reduction, clean air technology and forest preservation projects. In the past five years, Pakpour Consulting Group has neutralized over 500,000 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions through Carbonfund.org – the same quantity of emissions produced by the average passenger car driving almost 550,000 miles.
"As part of this process we scrutinized almost all of our day to day operations and through innovative approaches, we now recycle 80% of our waste and have reduced our paper usage by 13% while the company has doubled in size," stated Pakpour.
In addition to the operational emissions measurement, reduction and mitigation, Pakpour Consulting Group is helping to restore the natural resources used to manufacture paper and other office supplies through tree planting, watershed restoration and conservation projects. Carbonfund.org appreciates the commitment to environmental leadership and action that Pakpour Consulting Group continues to demonstrate through these company-wide efforts.

The state Medical Examiner's Office says that DNA taken from remains found in a wooded area in Lisbon matched that of Christiana Fesmire, 22, who disappeared in July of last year.
Authorities have confirmed that remains found last week in woods in Lisbon are those of Christiana Fesmire, 22, of Lewiston who disappeared on July 1, 2011.
The state Medical Examiner's Office says that DNA taken from the remains and examined at the Maine Crime Lab matched that of Fesmire, the Lewiston Sun Journal reports.
The cause and manner of death were "homicidal violence with facial fractures," spokesman Mark Belserene told the publication.
Buddy Robinson, 31, of Lewiston, was convicted last month of murder in connection with Fesmire's death, though her body had not yet been found.
Robinson has not been sentenced.

Or, the Day of the Dead to us Americans. I first learned about this holiday when reading Ray Bradbury's "The Halloween Tree" (which, if you haven't read it, I suggest going out and getting a copy ASAP). Although we usually associate this holiday with Mexico, it actually is found throughout Latin America. It is closely tied with the Catholic holy day, All Soul's Day, which falls on the day after Halloween, and is celebrated throughout the world (albeit, a little less awesomely, IMHO). Dia de los Muertos is centered around one idea- to honor the dead. This is done by giving presents to children and other living family members, as well as preparing special types of food, such as sugar skulls or pan de muerto (a sweet egg bread). It's traditional to leave food out for the dead, either by offering them a literal place at the family table, or by leaving offerings of food on their graves. Figurines depicting skeletons (calaveras catrinas) in everyday situations are made and sold to be displayed in the home.
Instead of the same old Halloween party, try throwing a Day of the Dead celebration. Dress up like calaveras, make some delicious Mexican food, and raise a toast to those who have gone before us. However, be careful. You may get some visitors that you didn't expect. 😉
Pan de Muerto (Thanks to Allrecipes)
- 1/4 cup margarine
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons anise seed
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 2 teaspoons orange zest
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 2 tablespoons white sugar
- Heat the milk and the butter together in a medium saucepan, until the butter melts. Remove from the heat and add them warm water. The mixture should be around 110 degrees F (43 degrees C).
- In a large bowl combine 1 cup of the flour, yeast, salt, anise seed and 1/4 cup of the sugar. Beat in the warm milk mixture then add the eggs and orange zest and beat until well combined. Stir in 1/2 cup of flour and continue adding more flour until the dough is soft.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough into a lightly greased bowl cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. This will take about 1 to 2 hours. Punch the dough down and shape it into a large round loaf with a round knob on top. Place dough onto a baking sheet, loosely cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until just about doubled in size.
- Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for about 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven let cool slightly then brush with glaze.
- To make glaze: In a small saucepan combine the 1/4 cup sugar, orange juice and orange zest. Bring to a boil over medium heat and boil for 2 minutes. Brush over top of bread while still warm. Sprinkle glazed bread with white sugar.

Robert Simmons pioneered a revolution in synthetic brushes, creating a unique blend of filaments that perform so remarkably like pure red sable that they earn the name "White Sable." Simmons' White Sable brushes offer superb point and spring at a fraction of the cost of red sable.
The original synthetic artist's brushes for watercolor and acrylic are still guaranteed for life — just as they were when Robert Simmons introduced them in 1972.

I'm starting with a basic idea, sort of a cage match final battle where the big battle will culminate on a central platform with room for any survivors to watch, or throw things.
This is just a rough sketch of the area, not even sure if I like the lava yet.
I have some ideas what I want to dress this up with, but certainly open to suggestions.
The proportions of this map are interesting ... it almost looks a wee bit Japanese. Tatami and slime
The colour scheme (brown/slimegreen) does not look great, particularly the greeny-grey gates in the central island. Are you able to alter the colour of everything except for the slime? I'd be almost inclined and make all walls and floor and gates a pale grey to give a unified and simple look, and to really emphasise the slime. What I would do is to reduce the saturation of the floor layer by 50% and lighten it slightly, so that it matches the palate of the four external doorways (leave the doors and external walls as they are) and then change the hue of the gates on the island from grey/green to grey/brown like the other walls. You might also consider a hue change on the iron spikes (I really like these by the way) to a less brown and paler rusty grey/orange.
The second thing I noticed is dark green grid lines in the slime. Are these intentional? They seem to follow a different (and too small) grid than the brown background.
Last edited by Jacktannery; 04-12-2012 at 03:00 AM.
I can play with the colors of most of the items. Will give it a try tonight. The slime is only a few feet deep so the brickwork beneath it shows through. It is just a different brick pattern that doesn't have a grid to it, and it cannot easily be changed.
Huge improvement - the slime really stands out now. The spikes are also much better. I might have been inclined to desaturate the floor a little bit less, to keep a slight hint of beige like on the walls and outsdie doors, but overall I think it looks much much better.
Your wall lights are the same colour as the slime - is this intentional? Some sort of slime-light effect? If not, consider changing the hue to be the same reddish-orange as the braziers to reduce the amount of clashing colours on the map.
It's definitely epic ... I'm tempted to just steal it for today's game
I played with the colors a bit more and added a couple detail objects. I think it is a pretty good balance like this.
My biggest question now is there is a lot of open space on the right and left sides. Should I leave it open for "room to fight" or should I add some kind of furniture to be obstacles and cover?
### Latest WIP ###
How about designs/decorations on the ground? Like a pentagram of fire that boosts fire-magic and effects? Maybe a heptagram of ice on the other side ... you can leave the terrain open for movement, but make it so it has other effects on the combatants.

Aura of Holy Emp
Command Unit Scarlet Lily
Shecas (1)
I'm running a L3 Lawt rush that uses exorcist and augment doll. It's a Lawt account, but I have the Refess Proxy (very few refess cards now ) and hope someday I can dual sphere; maybe using Aura on that L5 Refess Lawt multisphere card would be cool.
The order I'm thinking of choosing is:
1. Aura
2. Doll
3 Shecas
4. Mizalio
What should I do?

The number of hotel rooms in Maine's largest city is set to expand dramatically next year. While some regard this as a sign of Portland's resurging economy, there's also concern in the industry that the hotel market could be oversaturated - at least for the short-term. Tom Porter has more.
A recent groundbreaking ceremony in downtown Portland (above) marks the latest development in the growth of the Portland hotel market. By May next year, this stretch of ground at the corner of Fore Street and Union Street - which has served mainly as a parking lot since the 1970s - is expected to accommodate a seven-story, 130-room hotel.
Portland mayor Michael Brennan says more than 8.4 million visitors come to Portland every year.. "So between the jetport, trains, cruise ships, driving - 8.4 million people. So some people say, 'Do we need another hotel in Portland?' And I say, 'Yes we do.'"
"There's a huge demand for people coming into Portland, both to live -residential - and to visit," says Tim Soley, president of East Brown Cow, the development company behind the new Hyatt Place hotel.
He says visits among hotels and restaurants on Portland's peninsula doubled between 2006 and 2012 - despite the recession that hit midway. And this means a shortage of downtown hotel rooms. "It's at this point extremely obvious for anybody in the industry that the demand exists," Soley says.
"Well it's wonderful to have new hotels being built in the Portland area, but there is a level of concern about, are we going to need a lot more 'heads in beds?' if you will," says Barbara Whitten, president of the Greater Portland Convention and Visitors Bureau.
Filling extra hotel rooms, she says, is not a problem during the busy summer months. The problem arises in staying afloat during the off-season. It's not so much as question of "build it and they will come," she says, as "build it, and then do everything you can to make them come."
"There's got to be a concerted effort to bring as many people as we can here," Whitten says.
A lot of new hotel rooms are on the way to Portland next year. Apart from Hyatt Place, three more establishments are due to come onto the market. Marriott is opening a Courtyard Inn - also in the Old Port area - which will be about the same size as the new Hyatt. A smaller so-called boutique hotel is coming to the old Portland Press Herald building on Congress Street. And the historic Eastland Park Hotel - which is currently undergoing a $40 million renovation and expansion - will re-open next Spring as The Westin Portland Harborview.
In all, says Greg Dugal, this means about 400 extra rooms will be available next year. Downtown Portland alone will have some 2,600 rooms, while the wider metropolitan area will boast nearly 4,000. Dugal is executive director of the Maine Innkeepers Association.
"Hotel markets are resilient, they tend to be able to absorb rooms," Dugal says. "It just generally becomes a matter of, how long does it take for them to become absorbed?"
Dugal says the magic number for hotels is 60 percent - that's the occupancy rate generally required for a business to break even, and that's been about the level that Portland's hotels have been at for some time now. The question is, will the city's innkeepers be able to maintain this average occupancy rate year-round once the new hotels are here?
I think there's as much upside here as potential downside, but I think it's going to take a little while to shake it all out, to be honest with you," Dugal says.
"It will impact all of us," says Gerard Kiladjian, general manager of the Portland Harbor Hotel, a 101-room establishment located just yards from the site of the planned Hyatt Place hotel. "We will see a downtick in our occupancies, but hopefully, we're all going to go out and market Portland a lot better, and push for more tourists and more businesses and more conventions, and hopefully be successful at the end of the day."
But in the meantime Kiladjian says he expects things to be a little tougher for the next two or three years.

24V Power Amplifier from STMicroelectronics Brings State-of-the-Art Audio to Truck Cabs and Buses
Industry-unique chip replicates high-quality car audio performance in heavy vehicles without any external components
STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications and the world's leading supplier of automotive audio power amplifier chips 1, has introduced the market's most powerful and most simple-to-use audio power amplifier for commercial vehicles such as trucks, buses and agricultural vehicles, whose electrical systems run at 24 V rather than the 12 V used in cars. It is the world's first audio amplifier that can drive the cabin loudspeakers directly, without any external components, in 24V vehicles, confirming ST's dedication to the heavy-vehicle segment.
"Millions of drivers of trucks and other heavy vehicles often have to drive long distances with no one else in the cab for company. High-quality audio can help them stay relaxed and focused, but up till now they have usually had to settle for less than the best," said Luca Celant, Audio & Power Marketing Director, ST's Automotive Product Group. "Leveraging our worldwide leadership in automotive audio power amplifiers, we have developed a unique product that will allow them to enjoy the same superb audio experience that people expect in the latest cars."
Audio amplifiers used in automotive systems must be designed to withstand the demanding automotive environment, including a high level of electrical noise and the need to provide comprehensive protection against potential hazards such as short circuits, load dumps, and excessive chip temperature. Audio amplifiers for use in 12V automotive systems have reached a very high level of sophistication, but up till now audio equipment manufacturers have been unable to replicate this performance in 24V systems without using external components that not only drive up the Bill of Materials cost, but can even compromise safety under certain conditions.
ST's TDA7576B 24V audio amplifier uniquely solves this problem. It is built in a proven high-volume semiconductor manufacturing technology called BCD5 that allows a single chip to include both the power blocks and the signal management blocks – so there is no need to use a more expensive multi-chip approach - and it can sustain a peak supply voltage of 60 V without any damage. The most powerful audio power amplifier for 24V systems available on the market, the TDA7576B has been designed with the same guidelines and care that ST uses for car radio audio power amplifiers, so the final user can enjoy the same high-quality audio as car drivers.
The TDA7576B audio amplifier expands ST's dedicated portfolio of products for 24V vehicles that includes recently announced chips for exterior and interior lighting.
Key features of the TDA7576B include:
- 24V battery operation;
- High output power (2 x 20 W);
- Minimized external components (no decoupling capacitors, no bootstrap capacitor and no external compensation components);
- Integrated power-saving standby function;
- Diagnostic output pin that alerts the host controller in the event of clipping, short circuits or excessive temperature;
- Output DC offset detection;
- Protection against 60V load dump, excessive chip temperature, ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) and output short circuit to GND, Vcc, or across the load.
The TDA7576B is available now in a compact Multiwatt15 package at a price of US$4 in quantities of 1,000 units.

The fill-factor index option has a huge impact on the performance of your DB. By using a different approach for specific use cases this session will give you the tools to find the most optimal fill-factor for your tables.
Temporal Snapshot Fact Table
Snapshots without snapshots...is that possible? Take a "Classic" snapshot fact table, add some temporal data theory and you'll get a new fact table than can store snapshot data without doing snapshots. A life saver when you have a lot of data.
TSQL Performance Tips
SQL Server optimizer doesn't use and index seek for execution of your query although the query is high selective? What is better, when and why: LIKE vs: SUBSTRING, IN vs. EXISTS, SUBQUERY vs. JOIN. Why you should not use the UPPER or LOWER functions?
Advanced SQL Server 2008 Troubleshooting
It's Friday, 05:00pm. You are just receiving an email that informs you that your SQL Server has enormous performance problems! What can you do? How can you identify the problem and resolve it fast?

Gov. Paul LePage says he'll do whatever it takes to ensure that Maine's first two charter schools get the state funding they were promised this year. At a morning event at a Catholic elementary school, LePage expressed dismay at his administration's ongoing fight with Democrats over charter schools. Earlier this week, the Legislature's Education Committee voted, along party lines, to include the charters in more than $12 million in budget cuts to education. Jay Field has more.
Gov. Paul LePage believes kids in Maine should be able to go to whichever school will give them the best possible education. It could be a regular public school, a charter, a private or a Catholic school. LePage, himself, has a soft spot for parochial schools. He attended them growing up in Lewiston.
Early Friday morning, LePage read a story to kids at St. John's Cathlolic School in Winslow and took their questions. "What's your best accomplishment as governor?" asked one student.
"My best accomplishment as governor is still yet to come. It's improving the school system in our state," he replied. "Every child in Maine deserves to have the same good education that you're all getting."
But LePage's Democratic opponents in Augusta don't share his views on school choice and some other reforms he's pushing. It's a source of frustration for the governor.
LePage believes the teachers union and professional organizations representing school boards and administrators helped Democrats retake control of the Legislature, in exchange for blocking key parts of his agenda, like education reform.
"The lobbyists, the big unions, are doing an awful, awful thing to the future generations of Maine, and they need to look in the mirror," he says.
LePage's emnity for these groups escalated this week, after a party-line vote in the Legislature's Education and Cultural Affairs Committee. Democrats decided not to spare the state's first two charter schools - the Cornville Regional Charter School and the Academy of Natural-Science at Good-Will Hinckley - from funding cuts under the governor's $12.6 million dollar budget curtailment.
The schools have a combined enrollment of just over 100 students. Gov. LePage and other supporters say the move won't result in any substantial savings, and is a political stunt intended to undermine charters before they get off the ground in Maine.
"It's just a matter of basic fairness," says Boothbay Democrat Bruce MacDonald, the House chair of the Education Committee. MacDonald denies his party is playing politics with charter schools.
"When there is a curtailment like this, we just felt that it needed to be share equally across the board," he says. "Some of the statements that are out there - that Democrats are out to make charter schools fail - well, we each of us took an individual vote on that committee based, I think, upon our conscience."
Shortly after the vote, the Maine Education Association, the state's teacher's union, sent out a press release, praising the committee for its fairness in including charter schools in the cuts. Lois Kilby-Chesley, the MEA's president, says the union doesn't oppose charter schools.
Kilby-Chesley says it just wants them to abide by all of the same rules that regular public schools have to follow, a position she says the governor doesn't understand. "It's unfortunate that what we have is someone who tries to drive a wedge between the parties and make it a partisan issue," she says.
But the governor says it's Democrats, and the interest groups that support them, who are the ones driving wedges. LePage says charter schools will get the support they're counting on from the state. "They're going to get the money they need if I have to take it out of my own pocket," he says.
In the interest of full disclosure, the Maine Education Association represents some employees of the Maine Public Broadcasting Network.

I DO remember seeing a map where the text of varying thickness or darkness was used to create a map/image...but I can not remember where or what. I am not sure that would suffice for your project as they might not be able to distinguish the changes in the text. You might want to find out just WHAT impairments you are to make allowances for.
If you want to convey terrain by touch, I believe that there are papers and inks that can be used to layer an image with each layer having a certain noticeable thickness to it. Again going from (faulty) memory here....better to ask Gameprinter about that. And the last method that I can think of is 3D printing.....used in some industries like Architecture and Model creation.
As for the colors...I wouldn't think that using too much shading would be a good idea....use mostly solids and none too similar to another...
Hope that helps some

Vol State Radio Station WVCP-FM Goes HD
Submitted on October 14, 2011 at 9:49 AM
Hybrid Digital (HD) may be the future of radio and it's transmitting right now on the Volunteer State Community College radio station WVCP-FM 88.5. The college station starting broadcasting in HD just in the last few weeks. "There is a noticeable difference, it's cleaner," said WVCP General Manager Howard Espravnik. "It's a total upgrade of our studio to a digital platform."
The advantages of digital radio are not only the quality of signal, but also the ability to split the signal into multiple programs. Vol State will continue with a music mix of oldies, modern rock and heavy rock on HD 1, just as it has for years on the analog transmission. The new HD 2 channel features classic rock and Vol State student music projects. People will need a special HD receiver to get the digital signal. More and more automakers are including HD as a standard feature. The traditional FM analog broadcast will continue as usual, and listeners will not need a special radio to receive it.
WVCP is a student operated station and the digital technology will provide benefits for learning. "This will give our students the opportunity to use the latest cutting-edge technology. I don't think there are very many community college stations that have HD," said Espravnik.
For more information visit the station web page: www.volstate.edu/wvcp

Played the game and became like one of the best support players in the game. Probably top 3 and I was in the top 10 in the leaderboards. Fell off because I ended up quitting and I got tired of sitting in queue for 45+ minutes, then queuing into the same people in the top 10, and when you premade, it was into the same groups. Because of that, game got REALLY stale. I was also one of the players who innovated Kel into the support meta. I used to play with TulceRay, 50Shades, MianheDang, etc.
And I saw the leaderboard and I have no idea how SheebsLoL is 2nd when he's really bad at Dawngate. I had him on farm for like 20 straight games when I was sniping him once.
As for the Shaper, it is a less innovative Empath from HoN, so I agree with Candy.

Curtis has now addressed these longstanding concerns thanks to the generosity of Gerry and Marguerite Lenfest and more than 300 donors who contributed to the effort to plan and construct Lenfest Hall. This beautiful new building was completed early in FY 2012, and opened in time for the 2011–12 school year. Lenfest Hall has been a hub for living, learning, music-making, and socializing ever since. With the new building in operation, Curtis was able to repurpose space within its historic buildings, moving offices and studios to optimize all campus spaces.
Among the strategic steps Curtis took toward improving its facilities in FY 2012:
- completed the construction of Lenfest Hall on schedule and under budget, and opened in August 2011
- implemented a comprehensive operational plan for housekeeping, maintenance, security, waste management, and other building services
- undertook major renovations to the Rock Resource Center at 1720 Locust Street and relocated administrative offices, large-instrument studios, and the orchestra library
- raised $1 million in additional endowment to operate Lenfest Hall
