The Columbus Chinese Association and Cummins Chinese Affinity Group will present the Columbus Chinese New Year Celebration from 3 to 8 p.m. Feb. 2 at The Commons.
Funded by a Welcoming Community II grant from Heritage Fund — The Community Foundation of Bartholomew County, the celebration is intended as an opportunity for Columbus residents to experience and become more familiar with Chinese culture.
Organizers hope the celebration, which previously was at Columbus East High School, tops last year's record attendance of 600 as it settles into its new venue at The Commons.
The purpose of the celebration is twofold, according to Kai Wang, president of the Columbus Chinese Association.
If you go
What: Chinese New Year Celebration
When: 3 to 8 p.m. Feb. 2 (doors open at 2:30 p.m.)
Where: The Commons, 300 Washington St.
Admission: Tickets for dinner and show are sold separately this year — $10 for show and $10 for dinner for 14 and older; $5 for show and dinner for children 5 to 14; $1 for show and dinner for children under 5.
Silent auction items available for viewing at ccaindiana.com/events/silent-auction-for-chinese-new-year-party-2/
Information: Contact Harry Huang at 812-925-5222
"The first is to enjoy our new year and make people happy," Wang said. "And we would like to show Chinese culture to the people of Columbus."
This year's event offers more traditional Chinese music and programs than in previous years, Wang said. Included in the entertainment schedule are traditional operatic pieces, folk songs, pop music and karaoke.
The Columbus-Bloomington Folk Music Lovers and Joy Chinese instrument group, from Carmel, will perform folk songs and demonstrate Chinese musical instruments, including stringed instruments such as the mandolin, pipa and gu zheng, Wang said.
Local organizations, including the Columbus Chinese Church and Columbus Chinese Language School, also will perform.
A group of young, amateur singers from Columbus will compete in "The Voice of Columbus," an adaptation of the popular talent show "The Voice of China," which debuted on Chinese television in July, said Scarlett Wu, coordinator for the celebration's performances.
"Many people have seen 'The Voice of China,'" Wu said. "But a Columbus local may find 'The Voice of Columbus' more exhilarating and fun to watch."
Short skits from Chinese theater and pop culture will be interspersed with the musical performances.
A calligrapher will demonstrate the fine art of Chinese calligraphy, using an ink brush, ink, paper and an ink stone, known as the Four Treasures of the Study, Wang said.
Several items donated by Columbus-area residents and sponsors will be available for purchase during an ongoing silent auction throughout the event. Traditional items up for bid include Chinese flowering tea, a red-lacquered box, embroidery, rubbings of stone inscriptions and clay dolls.
All proceeds from the auction benefit the development of the Columbus Chinese Language School through the Heritage Fund's Columbus Chinese School Endowment Fund.
Traditional Chinese dishes, including Szechuan spicy chicken, salt and pepper shrimp, and double-cooked pork, will be catered by Ru Yi Restaurant of Columbus.

Which drink has the lowest calories? How can I avoid a hangover? If I know I'm going out drinking should I eat less to make up for the calories in alcohol?
I'd be living in la la land if I thought everyone stuck to water! I figured I'd provide some info that might help you make some healthier choices.
Which alcoholic drink has the least calories?
Beer, wine, champagne and spirits might not have the calorie count of a coconut cream laden Piña Colada, but these drinks still contain carbohydrates in addition to alcohol.
Here's a bit of a break down for you of some calorie counts of old drinking favourites:
|Average Bar Serve
|Red wine (13.5%)
|100 – 120
|White wine (11.5%)
|70 – 120
|Sparkling wine (11.5%)
|70 – 120
|Full-strength beer (4.8%)
|425ml schooner
|Premix gin and tonic (4.5%)
|375 ml can
|Vodka with soda (40%)
|30ml spirit plus 150ml soda
|Rum and cola (4.6%)
|375ml can
|Gin and tonic (4.5%)
|30ml spirit plus 250 ml tonic
|Piña Colada (13%)
We have a winner! Vodka and soda water comes out as the lowest calorie option. Add fresh lime or lemon juice for a low-calorie flavour hit.
Surprised at the gin and tonic? It's a common misconception that tonic is another kind of soda water. It's actually a soft drink and full of sugar.
[Related: How Many Calories in a Gin and Tonic PLUS a Free Cocktail Recipe]
Which is the best drink to prevent hangovers?
To be honest you are better off slamming down waters if you are trying to avoid a hangover! But if you are going to have a drink or two, then you need to keep a eye on what exactly you are drinking and standard drink versus standard serve.
Common scenario: On a night out you are matching your girlfriends round for round, and you all drink approximately the same number of drinks. Some of you are drinking beer, some wine, others spirits. In the end some of you are much more inebriated than others despite you all having the same number of empty glasses behind you.
There are lots of factors at play here including body weight and what you each ate before drinking. But a major factor is that that some of you have had more standard drinks than others.
By definition a standard drink contains 10 grams of alcohol (12.5ml of pure alcohol). Most alcoholic beverages at a pub or restaurant are more than one standard drink.
[Related: Eating and Drinking at the Pub]
There are no common glass sizes used in Australia but you can have an approximate idea of standard drink versus standard serve:
|Average bar serve
|Standard drinks
|Red wine (13.5%)
|White wine (11.5%)
|Sparkling wine (11.5%)
|Full-strength beer (4.8%)
|425ml schooner
|Premix gin and tonic (4.5%)
|375 ml can
|Vodka with soda (40%)
|30ml spirit plus 150ml soda
|Rum and cola (4.6%)
|375ml can
|Gin and tonic (4.5%)
|30ml spirit plus 250 ml tonic
So you can see by this that if for example, if Friend #1 drank three glasses of red wine and Friend #2 three glasses of gin and tonic they would have consumed a totally different number of standard drinks.
Friend #1 would have had 4.8 standard drinks and Friend #2 would have consumed 3 standard drinks. So if you are going out its worthwhile doing some calculations in your head to make sure you know just how much you are drinking!
You can check out more info on specific alcoholic drinks in the Australian Government's standard drinks guidelines.
Should I cut down on the food I eat to compensate for the alcohol I drink?
No! No! No! Bad idea. Instead, make sure you head into the party or event with a game plan for how much food and alcohol you want to consume. Then stick to it. Eating before will also help prevent the calorie explosion that happens from a late night stop at the kebab shop on the way home!
Apart from eating before you go out my top tip is to sip your drink and alternate every alcoholic beverage with something non-alcoholic. It'll help you stay hydrated and will go a long way towards helping you avoid waking up with a nasty hangover!

Common Resume Writing Mistakes
We've surveyed scores of prime employers, career counselors, and employment agencies to determine what they feel are the most common repeated mistakes in the thousands of resumes they see.
Here are the top (bottom) ten:
- Too long (preferred length is one page- two pages is fine if space is utilized well).
- Disorganized – information is scattered around the page – hard to follow
- Poorly typed and printed – hard to read – looks unprofessional
- Overwritten – long paragraphs and sentences – takes too long to say too little
- Too sparse – gives only bare essentials of dates and job titles
- Not oriented for results – doesn't show what the candidate accomplished on the job
- Too many irrelevancies – height, weight, sex, health, marital status are not needed on today's resumes
- Misspellings, typographical errors, poor grammar – resumes should be carefully proofread before they are printed and mailed.
- Tries too hard – fancy typesetting and binders, photographs and exotic paper distract from the clarity of the presentation
- Misdirected – too many resumes arrive on employers' desks unrequested, and with little or no apparent connection to the organization – cover letters would help avoid this.

COMMERCE CITY — Frustrations boiled over. Accusations were made. Voices were raised.
But unlike past bickering between Denver and Adams County officials, the third meeting of the Airport Consultation Committee ended Thursday on a positive note. A date was set for the next meeting. An agreement on guiding principles was reached. Staff was directed to plan a trip for the group to visit development around the Dallas-Fort Worth airport.
The group began meeting this year to talk about the conflict around Denver's plans to develop property on Denver International Airport. The group includes three representatives each from Denver and Adams County; four are elected officials.
In 2011, Denver Mayor Michael Hancock presented a plan to create "Airport City" — a development of industrial hubs intended to spur development around the airport, creating an "aerotropolis."
Adams officials have argued the plans could violate a 1988 agreement that allowed Denver to annex the land but limited development. Denver disputes the argument and says the plans aren't concrete.
Broader talks stalled at one point when the Adams County attorneys sent an open-records request to Denver in an attempt to get information they said they weren't getting otherwise.
Now the small group is trying to restart discussions, although it has taken time to establish trust, officials say.
"If we're going to have open and frank discussions, I'm going to let you know where I stand," Aurora Mayor Steve Hogan said.
To allow themselves more freedom to speak openly, the group agreed Thursday to consider keeping what is said in the meetings out of evidence should the battle eventually end up in court.
On Thursday, Hogan said he was concerned that if an agreement was reached to develop Denver International Airport and areas around it, only Denver would benefit. He cited three Aurora projects near DIA — including the Gaylord conference center and hotel — he said have been stalled by Denver.
"The point is if you want to get something done it shouldn't take four years," Hogan said. "Those are three specific examples of what we're dealing with already."
Denver Mayor Michael Hancock said specific problems have interfered with each of those projects, and said Denver's investment into the High Point development on the Denver-Aurora border should be evidence that the city does contribute to regional projects.
Hancock said Hogan's comments that put the group in a "you against us" situation were outdated and antiquated notions.
"After 25 years, we're going to keep getting more of what we're getting," Hancock said. Once DIA is competing as an airport city on a global scale, "we will wipe them off the map."
Adams County officials also took issue with a suggestion by Hancock that revenue sharing for projects inside DIA boundaries is not legally possible, but could be on the table for aerotropolis development outside DIA boundaries.
"Fiscal revenues that Denver receives as a governmental entity, such as sales tax or property tax, are not subject to FAA restrictions and are available for revenue sharing," said Mark Davis, an attorney hired by Adams County.
But the heated discussions didn't seem to harm the group's evolving relationship.
"These are the tough, candid conversations we need to have to move toward realizing the regional economic benefit that's in front of us all," Hancock said in a statement issued after the meeting.
Adams County Commissioner Chaz Tedesco agreed. "Have we resolved anything? Not at this point. But at least we're able to talk."

MIAMI, FLA, October 15. FLORIDA International University has announced it will open its second season of intercollegiate swimming and diving competition this Saturday at the University of Miami in Coral Gables on Saturday at the Norman Whitten Student Union Pool on the University of Miami campus.
Head coach Noemi Zaharia and the Golden Panthers made a big splash in their inaugural season last year, garnering recognition by the swimming & diving community. "With the first season in the past, we now have to set our sights towards building a successful program while adding to the tradition of FIU sports," said Zaharia.
The Golden Panthers grabbed immediate attention with a fourth-place finish at the Sun Belt Conference Championships. The 2004-05 FIU roster features eight returnees, all of which were instrumental in making an instant impact.

Understanding Advanced Imaging Technology
MRI … CT scan … Ultrasound. Your physician and healthcare team have many options available when it comes to advanced medical imaging that can detect and diagnose disease at an earlier and more treatable stage. Here's a quick recap of the five most common imaging technologies and when they are used.
An X-ray is the oldest and most frequently used of the medical imaging technologies. This quick and painless procedure is primarily used to examine bones for fractures, infections, arthritis, osteoarthritis and cancer. It's also used to check for lung infections, an enlarged heart, blocked blood vessels and problems in the digestive tract.
CT Scan
A CT scan is a series of X-rays that are taken at different angles. It creates a cross-section image of the body like a slice of bread. A CT scan is often used in trauma situations, such as an automobile accident, to check for internal injuries and bleeding. It's also used to locate tumors, infections, blood clots, and fractures and to detect and monitor cancer and heart disease.
An MRI produces images by using a magnetic field and radio waves. For many tissues, an MRI produces a clearer and more detailed image than a CT scan. For example, it's an excellent tool for capturing detailed images of soft tissue, such as the brain, heart, blood vessels, muscle, tendons, ligaments, nerves and internal organs.
Pet Scan
A PET scan is a unique type of medical imaging because it checks the chemical activity in parts of your body. It's primarily used for patients who have cancer, heart disease or brain disorders.
This technology uses sound waves to create images. Ultrasound is used to examine soft tissues that do not show up well on X-rays. It's also used during pregnancy to avoid unnecessary exposure of the fetus to X-rays. An echocardiogram is an ultrasound that shows the heart at work, particularly the opening and closing of the valves.

about the Haider Ackermann Design. The raw, sort of scientific nature of his clothes, complemented perfectly by the sinuous cuts of fabric that are draped, folded, and tucked, create a magic that belongs only to Haider Ackermann. His clothing has the ability to traverse not only lifetimes and eras, but worlds, lending an enigmatic power in the message that his design commands. It's the subtlety of a piece of fabric cut so that it resembles a doily, peeking out from underneath a jacket, or the way the collar of a leather vest extends so that it wraps around the neck of a model, almost resembling a DNA strand. The geometric (commonly triangular, or spherical) shapes of fabric that fall beautifully on the body all while retaining a pragmatism that appeals to more than one type of customer allow the strength to emanate from within the woman. A reverse peplum on the rear of a jacket, a leather corset with swirling zippers, or the beauty of a high-necked, asymetrical collar completing a motorcyle jacket possess a quality that is far more interesting than stylish, allowing you to look at Fashion Design with a new vision. Easily seductive, yet in a different manner than the instantaneous nature that has overtaken the world, and much of Fashion Design today, Haider Ackermann's design is truly his own. This enigmatic quality that belongs to his clothing, can only be attributed to belonging to him as well. A powerful Designer.

Anthony Weiner says he's not dropping out of the New York City mayoral race in light of newly revealed explicit online correspondence with a young woman.
Weiner admitted on Tuesday to exchanging racy photos and having X-rated chats with a woman he met online. He had resigned his House seat in June 2011 after acknowledging having sexual conversations with at least a half-dozen women.
The newly revealed correspondence was posted Monday by the gossip website The Dirty. The woman involved was not identified. She says their online relationship began in July 2012 and lasted for six months.
The married ex-congressman had predicted more texts and photos might come out. Since re-entering public life this spring, he has apologized repeatedly for his behavior. He also has been near the top of most mayoral polls since entering the race.

DEFIANCE, Ohio (21Alive) - A woman who persuaded her 10-year-old adopted son to shoot and kill her estranged husband was sentenced to life in prison Thursday.
Judith Hawkey, 45, of Oakwood, Ohio, was convicted of aggravated murder, insurance fraud and endangering children in the 2003 shooting death of her ex-husband, Robert Breining, inside a home on Kyle Street.
Originally, police ruled Breining's death an accident.
But evidence discovered a decade later traced the killing back to the 10-year-old boy.
The life sentence comes with no chance of parole for Hawkey.

The Safe Alliance Rape Crisis Services Program has changed its name to the Sexual Trauma Resource Center (STRC). We talked with Mecklenburg STRC Supervisor Cori Goldstein, LCSW, about this change and how it betters communicates/positions the work that we do for clients impacted by sexual violence. Cori, please tell us about the re-branding of this important program.
A: As a trauma informed agency, it was important for us to have a name that truly covers all the work we do with all survivors of sexual assault. With the name Sexual Trauma Resource Center it shows the scope of clients that we serve. Some of the clients that we serve might not fit into the definition of 'rape crisis' but still are in need of advocacy and support services. We want our name to clearly demonstrate and reflect the scope of survivors that we serve; whether we are getting a call for a client that is in the Emergency Room due to a recent sexual assault, a hotline call from an adult survivor of child sexual abuse that is disclosing past abuse for the first time, or a member of our military who has experienced military sexual assault. We also recognized the limitations of the legal definition of rape and wanted to again be inclusive in recognizing all survivors of sexual assault are welcome to receive services through the Sexual Trauma Resource Center. We serve children, teens, and adult survivors of sexual assault, regardless of whether the sexual abuse just happened or happened years ago; regardless of whether it was reported to authorities or never reported; and regardless of whether a person had a rape kit completed or not. Within the scope of our services, we also effectively partner with survivors of groups that the community might not recognize is impacted by sexual violence, such as individuals with disabilities, survivors within the LGBT community, the elderly and those in nursing homes/assisted living facilities, as well as our military. We are proud to offer trauma informed care, as well as military informed care.
Describe for us the services available to clients at our Sexual Trauma Resource Center(s). What is the mission of the program and how are clients served?
A: The Sexual Trauma Resource Center currently provides services in three counties; Cabarrus County, Mecklenburg County (also in the Lake Norman area) and Union County. Each of our four locations continues to follow the overarching mission of Safe Alliance, providing hope and healing to people in crisis. We know that one of the first barriers that victims of sexual trauma has to overcome to seek help, is the fear of not being believed. Our philosophy is to believe and support clients, accepting them as they are, regardless of their life circumstances. Each STRC location is available to help with advocacy and provide crisis support. Services include 24 hour crisis lines, safety planning services, hospital accompaniment, case management, support groups, assistance/support with reporting their victimization, court education, court accompaniment, community education, systems advocacy, assistance with victim's compensation, and assistance with the NC Address Confidentiality Program. Each location also has trauma counseling so advocates can help in connecting clients with counseling services within the agency. In Union County, we also operate The Tree House Children's Advocacy Center (CAC). The Tree House CAC is a community based, coordinated response to child victims of sexual or physical abuse. The Tree House CAC provides a neutral, child-friendly location for forensic interviews, medical evaluations, advocacy and support for child/teen victims and non-offending family members.
Importantly, if a sexual assault victim or non-offending family member needs to contact one of our STRC's, what is the process and where are our STRC's located?
A: If an individual is in crisis they can contact our Sexual Assault Hotline for the specific county they are located in. All hotlines are staffed 24/7 with a trained representative to provide crisis intervention and answer any questions that an individual might have. To seek non-urgent services during business hours and/or to schedule an appointment with a Victim Advocate, you can contact each office directly.

Feng Wen-guang married a Christian woman without fully realizing what that meant for their lives together. She was gone a lot for church activities. So he tried to get her to stop attending church and didn't allow their child to go.
But his wife persisted. "I started to wonder why she kept on going to church," he said. "I thought to myself, there must be something better, something that always made her joyful."
Elder Feng Wen-guang has been a Christian for more than 16 years.
Two weeks before Easter 1997, Feng decided to find out. "There were some 500 people in church, so harmonious, so peaceful," he recalled. "I had to ask seriously, there must be a God."
The pastor that day preached on 2 Corinthians 5:17-19. "I had been a bad person in my life, and I wanted to change to be a new person," Feng said. "And so when the pastor asked who wanted to seek baptism, I raised my hand." Several weeks later, he and others walked 40 minutes to a river to be baptized.
Now as the chief elder of the Lijiang City Yulong County Christian Council, Feng oversees the work of 54 congregations with more than 5,000 members. "When the local council was formed in 1999, we had 106 members in 27 congregations and meeting points," he said. "Though we have only two full-time pastors, we have many evangelists and a gospel team of 40 who help everywhere, including making visits to members."
In Feng, a new creation has taken place. And in the local church scene, especially among the Lisu ethnic minority people, a new creation continues to happen.

A small study suggests a test of the chemicals in your breath may be able to detect colon cancer. Currently the tests used to screen for colon cancer is a colonoscopy.
Now a study of seventy-eight people with and without colon cancer has found that those with the disease tended to have a distinct pattern of chemicals in their breath. When researchers analyzed the breath samples, they correctly identified colon cancer patients seventy-six percent of the time.
The test is in its very early stages and won't be available in your doctor's office anytime in the near future. Findings appear online in the "British Journal of Surgery."

Today is Father's Day, and though we're all abuzz for a potential title-clenching Game 5, the luckiest among us basketball fans are busy celebrating the dads all over the world while we wait for tip-off. The NBA is packed with players whose own pro-hooper dads passed the game along to their progeny, whether through genetics or hours spent going one-on-one in the driveway. The next generation is being incubated by their pro pops but until Lil Chris' handle comes around …
or Bryce James showcases his poise in an NBA arena…
or Zaire Wade's layups pay off
or Gianna Bryant channels her dad's competitive spirit, we can take a moment to recognize the fathers whose kids have already made it.
Tim Hardaway, Jr.
Tim the younger doesn't have dad's legendary crossover but he did make the NBA All-Rookie team coming off the bench for the Knicks. He averaged 10.2 ppg and shot 36.3% from three, putting up 40 double-digit scoring games. The two clashed when Tim, Sr. pushed his son too hard early on, but when the former All-Star fell back, his son's game flourished.1 of 14
John Lucas
Undrafted as a rookie in 2005, John Lucas III has made a professional career playing for five different NBA teams and taking up three D-League stints and a seasons in China and Italy. He's found a place for his shooting an D with resilient effort imparted by his dad, former No. 1 overall pick (1976) John Lucas, whose own NBA career was marred by substance abuse. The older Lucas rebounded as an NBA coach and life counselor.2 of 14
Austin Rivers
Since entering the league as the 10th pick in the 2012 draft, Austin's career has been in flux. He's lost confidence in New Orleans—he averaged 7.7 ppg and 2.3 apg and was buried in the rotation—and was constantly involved in trade rumors. But Doc and Austin are still only the fourth father-son duo to have their teams play each other in the NBA.3 of 14
Kevin Love
Trade bait Kevin Love owes a lot to his dad, Stan, the ninth pick in the 1971 draft. Stan spent his first three seasons with the Baltimore Bullets where he befriended Wes Unseld. Stan was so enamored with Unseld's game that he named his firstborn Kevin Wesley, and forced the kid to watch old footage of Unseld's passing.4 of 14
Ed Davis
Davis used to go along with his dad Terry (after he retired) to pick-up games on VCU's campus. Both father and son are 6'10" and the older Davis brought his seed back to his alma mater to toughen the kid up against other alums like Charles Oakley and Ben Wallace. It paid off. Terry went undrafted but played 10 seasons in the league while Ed was a lottery pick in 2010.5 of 14
Kobe Bryant
The story of Joe and Kobe—how dad's traveling pro career shaped his son's fluency in languages and basketball—has been well-documented. While Kobe and his family have gone through their ups and downs it's clear that their common bond will always be a love of the game.6 of 14
Klay Thompson
Who better to have as an advisor than a former No. 1 draft pick? Mychal Thompson played 14 years in the NBA and won a pair of rings with the Lakers but he's also been a hands-on dad to Klay and his brother Trayce, a minor league baseball prospect. Dad still holds the reins in the relationship.7 of 14
Mike Dunleavy, Jr.
Pressed into a starting role in Chicago, Mike Dunleavy, Jr. is still providing valuable minutes in his fourteenth year in the league, while his father is still interviewing for coaching vacancies after 17 years on the sidelines.8 of 14
Ronnie Brewer
Both Ron and Ronnie starred for the Arkansas Razorbacks in college. Ron, the 7th overall pick of the Portland Trail Blazers in the 1978 draft, lasted nine years and averaged 12 ppg in the league. Of course, he didn't teach Ronnie that terrible looking J. The journeyman son's shot is the result of a childhood accident, not bad parenting.9 of 14
Gerald Henderson
Gerald, Sr. played for seven different teams in his 13-year career but he's best remembered in Boston for this steal in the 1984 Finals. He retired in 1992, when Gerald, Jr. was 4, and now the kid is starting two guard for the Charlotte Bobcats, averaging 14.0 ppg.10 of 14
Phil Pressey
Phil got his handle from pops Paul, who during his 13-year career was one of the first point forwards in the game. And when Paul continued his career as an assistant coach with the Celtics (under Doc Rivers) their players used to scare the crap out of a young Phil and Austin Rivers.11 of 14
Al Horford
The Hawks' Al Horford and his dad Tito (along with younger bro, U of Michigan forward Jon) are basketball celebs in the Dominicna Republic. Tito was the first Domincan-born athlete to play in the NBA (drafted in 1988) and Al is the island nation's first all-star and a mainstay of the Dominican National Team.12 of 14
Wes Matthews
The younger Matthews worked his way into the league after going undrafted in 2009. He earned a starting spot first in Utah and now in Portland thanks to his D and 39.4 career three percentage. His dad Wes was probably most famous for his run-in with Xavier McDaniel.
Stephen Curry
Of course Steph's dad Dell is remembered as the sharpshooting all-time leading scorer for the Charlotte Hornets, a trait he taught his sniper son, who's parlayed that stroke into a more multi-faceted game for the Golden State Warriors.14 of 14

Here at the office, we're all recovering from last night's Fashion's Night Out festivities, where we spent our time in New York and Boston celebrating great style (with lots of treats, of course). So what did it look like?
In Boston, the party at Nanette Lepore on Newbury Street was packed for hours with stylish shoppers and plenty of Rue Members. The champagne was flowing, the mini cupcakes (from Kick*ss Cupcakes) were flying off their trays, and our Rue Recharge Kits were saving party-goers from high heel woes.
In New York, our team took to the streets to offer solace (in the form of more Rue Recharge Kits) to shoppers strolling through the Meatpacking District. And it was pretty clear Manhattanites needed relief – our team ran out of Kits in just 30 minutes!

Toro Rosso's TR5 Tests
Scuderia Toro Rosso unveiled the TR5, the first car that the team has designed itself as it establishes itself as a constructor in its own right. However, the car's ancestry is still visible, with more than a hint of last year's Red Bull RB5. That's not surprising given the size of the team working on the car.
"2010 is a landmark year for Scuderia Toro Rosso as the new regulations demand that we go it alone in terms of designing and building our car in-house. After four years of working in collaboration with Red Bull Technology, the TR5 is the first car that is one hundred percent down to our own endeavours." Franz Tost
The car features the fully updated diffuser that Red Bull were enjoying by the end of the year but the rear of the car remains largely unchanged in form. However, there is a sharper nose than Red Bull had been using. It's a start but it remains to be seen where the team goes from here.
Being recognised as a Constructor involves owning the intellectual property rights to what are defined as the listed parts: the monocoque, all the safety structures that are subject crash testing such as the front, rear and roll-over structures as well as the complete aerodynamic package, suspension system, fuel and cooling systems.

The Labor Glut Is Coming to Town
No matter how articulate you are, sooner or later you meet someone more articulate still who can make your point better than you can. Some people are threatened and react accordingly. Others, like me, are delighted to have a sharper arrow in our rhetorical quiver. This was the delightful experience I had this morning when I read a commentary on CNSNews by Christopher G. Adamo. He makes my various points about illegal immigration more eloquently than I've done so far in the following excerpt:
Primarily, they (open border supporters--ER) operate under the noble sounding premise that "illegal immigrants are only doing jobs that Americans will not do." More accurately, they do jobs Americans refuse to do for Mexican wages.
In any case, how many jobs of this nature could there possibly be? Do they suggest that the twelve to fifteen million illegals already in this country are insufficient to perform such work? The stark truth is that illegals only linger briefly in such jobs, thereafter occupying higher rungs of the economic ladder, where they further displace American workers.
Which succinctly state the two main points I've been trying to make for years. One, Americans are perfectly willing to do any job if they can live decently on what it pays. I've had some pretty miserable jobs in the past, but they paid well by way of compensation for that misery. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case. Two, whatever else you can say about illegal immigrants, they are still fellow human beings and as such the one thing they want more than any other is for their kids to have it better than they did.
I'll elaborate some on those points. In the first case it is undeniable that over-immigration displaces American workers at the bottom of the socio-economic rung of society. It's basic the basic supply and demand principle. Even at a depressed US wage newcomers are usually better off than they were in their native countries. However, very few native Americans will accept the decline in their living standard required by those very depressed wages. So, in that sense, the detractors are right. Americans won't do those jobs anymore for a good reason. It would be stupid to do so.
Ah, but there's the rub. Many people seem to forget,those displaced don't just conveniently disappear into the ether. They have to go somewhere. If you're on the bottom rung of legitimate society, you only have three places you can go. The first two are a life of crime or the public dole, both of which hurt society as a whole. The only other alternative is to improve and reinvent yourself and move up the social ladder. Many displaced persons do this, which increases competition for jobs at those levels and consequently puts downward pressure on wages.
In my own experience, I was stunned when I graduated college and found that all the Bachelor's level jobs in my new field paid less than my old blue-collar job, a lot less. My whining about the situation prompted one of my college professors to inform me that the supply of college graduates was exceeding the demand in most fields and that, consequently, the Bachelor's degree was the new high school diploma, and that I needed to get a Master's to even have a hope of a high-paying job.
As for the second point, I have noticed that many native American citizens just assumed that the son of the guy that mows his lawn will mow the lawn of his sons and daughters. Uh-uh. Ain't no way. Nix-na, nein, no way, uh-uh. That guy working three jobs isn't doing it so his kids can work three jobs. He's doing it so that his kids can compete with your kids for middle-class jobs, and so that his grandkids can compete with your grandkids for admission to med and law schools.
No one can blame immigrants, legal or otherwise, for wanting to come here. But it is unfair to those of us already here, and our descendents. Any immigration past the point required to relieve labor shortages is ultimately harmful to the country. Just like Castro took advantage of the Mariel Boatlift of 1980 to flush out his prisons and mental hospitals, Mexico and other countries are using our dysfunctional borders to flush out their chronically unemployed who, if they stayed in their own country's, could very well become a threat to the entrenched leadership. In essence, despite what apologists say, these countries are exporting their problems to us.
These countries will keep exporting their problems to use because from their perspective it would be foolish to do so. Not only do they get the unemployed out of their hair, those same people send billions of dollars back to relatives in their home countries. As an example, Mexico is reported to get one-fifth of its GNP (gross national product) from remittances sent by immigrants here in the United States. This is done at the expense of our own GPD.
No matter what the naysayers say, Americans are not against immigration as such. What they are against is an unrelenting invasion.

The Lemaire Brothers Honoured At The 2013 Green CEO Awards
KINGSEY FALLS, QC, March 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - Les Affaires and Trebora Conseil awarded its Green CEO Hommage award to Cascades founders Bernard, Laurent and Alain Lemaire. The mission of the Green CEO awards is to shine a spotlight on the initiative and exemplary contribution of leaders in small, medium and large businesses and crown corporations in promoting sustainable development in their business practices. The judges also confer a Green CEO Hommage award on a well-known leader for lifetime achievement. Since the brothers work closely together, the judges named all three as recipients of the award this year."We are very pleased to receive this honour. Cascades has held on to its integrity. Over time, the company has evolved and changed, but we have always managed to remain true to our fundamental values despite the profound changes occurring in the world. Fifty years ago, we were always somewhat hesitant to explain the origins of the raw materials used to make our products. Using recycled fibres was frowned upon. Today, many consumers seek out our products specifically because of the fact that they contain recycled fibres. I am proud of what we have accomplished at Cascades so far, and what I find very exciting is that there is still so much to do," says Laurent Lemaire, co-founder of Cascades. Along with the panel of judges, who voted unanimously in favour of the three pioneers of sustainable development, Steven Guilbeault of Équiterre, Georges Kobrynsky, member of the Cascades Board of Directors, and Mario Plourde, Chief Operating Officer at Cascades, paid tribute to the dedication and the outstanding legacy of the Lemaire brothers. They described the company as a multinational with a human touch that actively seeks to reduce its environmental footprint and that has had a profound influence on the entire recovery and recycling movement, as well as the marketing of environmentally friendly products in North America. Cascades extends its congratulations to all the recipients and finalists of the 2013 Green CEO awards.

Tensions High as Malaysians Head to Polls
May 1, 2013
With only four days left before Malaysians cast their votes in the nation's 13th general elections, both the Barisan Nasional and the Pakatan Rakyat are intensifying campaign efforts to win the hearts and minds of voters. Political giants from both sides of the competing coalitions, such as the incumbent prime minister, Najib Razak, former prime minister Mahathir Mohamed, and opposition leaders Anwar Ibrahim, Lim Kit Siang, and Hadi Awang have all attracted massive turnouts at their campaign events. Thousands of posters and flags cover almost every intersection in the country, with some party workers and supporters being more creative than others, making giant replicas of the scale, rocket, and moon from flags to represent their party logos.

Rose chafer (Cetonia aurata)
|Cetonia (1)
|Length: 14 - 20 mm (2)
Not threatened in Britain (2).
This beautiful iridescent beetle can occur in a variety of colours; the wingcases or elytra are typically bright green, but they may be darker, variegated or golden. The white marks on the elytra are also highly variable between individuals (2). There is always a V-shaped groove on the back where the upper parts of the elytra meet, and the underside is a coppery colour (3). The rose chafer belongs to the same family as dung beetles, Scarabidae. Chafer is a Middle English word thought to mean 'to gnaw' and relates to the feeding habits of these beetles (4).
This common species is found throughout much of southern and central Europe (3), but becomes more scarce further north (2).
The adults of this species are commonly found in gardens, sitting in flowers. The larvae live inside rotting wood and humus (2).
The adult beetles are active between April and September; they fly clumsily (2) and are typically seen in sunny weather. They feed on leaves, fruits, flowers and buds of a range of plants including roses, (hence the common name), and are often perceived as garden pests for this reason (3).
The larvae feed on plant roots, and spend the winter hibernating in the soil or inside rotting wood, emerging the following year to pupate. After they emerge as adults they feed for a few weeks, mate and then die (3).
This species is not currently threatened in Britain.
Conservation action is not required for this species.

- Elytra: in beetles and earwigs, the hard fore wings. They are held aloft when the insect flies, and are often coloured or patterned.
- Hibernating: a winter survival strategy characteristic of some mammals in which an animal's metabolic rate slows down and a state of deep sleep is attained. Whilst hibernating, animals survive on stored reserves of fat that they have accumulated in summer. In insects, the correct term for hibernation is 'diapause', a temporary pause in development and growth. Any stage of the lifecycle (eggs, larvae, pupae or adults) may enter diapause, which is typically associated with winter.
- Larvae: stage in an animal's lifecycle after it hatches from the egg. Larvae are typically very different in appearance to adults; they are able to feed and move around but usually are unable to reproduce.
- Pupate: the process of forming a pupa, the stage in an insect's development, when huge changes occur that reorganise the larval form into the adult form. In butterflies the pupa is also called a chrysalis.

Is Penelope Cruz Pregnant? Pirates of the Caribbean Pic Shows Baby BumpWendyM
Is Penelope Cruz pregnant? A picture of Penelope Cruz sporting a loose shirt on the set of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides in Puerto Rico has many speculating that a baby bump lies beneath.
Of course, who wouldn't want to hear baby news from Penelope Cruz and hubby Javier Bardem? They are oh-so-cute together and a little baby Penny or Javier would be adorable.
Penelope Cruz pregnancy rumors have swirled before in fact, preggers buzz started when she and Bardem first started dating in 2007. Then when Cruz and Bardem were secretly married in July, people thought they got hitched because she was pregnant.
Seeing the pics of Penelope sporting what may be a baby bump could support that shotgun wedding theory, so we'll have to see how this plays out.
For now, Penelope Cruz is on bump watch…check out the Penelope Cruz pregnant pics.
Do you think Penelope Cruz is pregnant, had a big meal, or the bump is part of the Pirates of the Caribbean plot?
UPDATE: "Penelope is 4½-months pregnant," reps for Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem confirmed to People.com. Congrats to Penelope and Javier!

The God of Abraham, Jesus, and Muhammad
The author of God: A Biography says that, yes, of course Jews, Christians, and Muslims worship the same God.
President Bush once scandalized some of his evangelical fans by innocently asserting, during a trip to England, that Muslims and Christians worship the same God.Richard Land, speaking for the scandalized
, rebuked the President for what Land calls playing "theologian-in-chief."
Land writes: "When President Bush concludes that Muslims and Christians worship the same God, he is simply mistaken." In my view, Bush is, at least on this point, a better theologian than his evangelical critic.
Though Land neither confirms nor denies that Jews and Christians worship the same God, surely he would concede that the first Christians, Jews all, did not understand Christian discipleship to entail switching to a new God. But what of the first Muslims? If they, too, understood themselves to be worshipping the God of the Jews, then were they not necessarily worshipping the God of the Christians as well?
The Qur'an identifies Allah as none other than the God to whom Abraham offered "submission" ('islam) in the episode Jews and Christians know so well from Genesis 22, the story of the binding of Isaac. As the paradigmatic Muslim or "submitter," Abraham then made the original, paradigmatic pilgrimage to Mecca, Muslims believe, accompanied by the very son, Ishmael, whom Allah had rescued so dramatically.
Jews and Christians have always believed that Muhammad got this story wrong. It was Isaac, not Ishmael, who was bound, they believe, and Abraham made no such pilgrimage to Mecca. But have Jews and Christians also believed, historically, that Muhammad had the divine protagonist wrong as well—-to the point that he was referring to another deity altogether?
This, it seems, is Land's assumption when he writes: "There is only one true God, and His name is Jehovah, not Allah." As it happens, centuries of Jewish and Christian thinkers have assumed just the opposite. When Muhammad first preached to the Jews of Arabia, the Jews definitely thought he had got their God wrong, but they just as definitely did not think he had got the wrong God.

By MARC KOVAC
Republican Rob Portman opened a 20-point lead on Democrat Lee Fisher in the race for one of Ohio's U.S. Senate seats, a poll finds.
Of the likely voters surveyed by the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute over the past week, 55 percent favored the former congressman, versus 35 percent who favor Fisher.
Another 58 percent said they would support the candidate who opposes President Barack Obama's policies.
"It's difficult to find any good news for Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher in these numbers," Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the institute, said in a released statement. "Likely voters in Ohio, as is the case nationally, are angry at the status quo and with Democrats controlling Congress and the White House. Fisher is taking it on the chin from those who are trying to send a message to the White House. A Democrat who is losing among women likely to vote by 8 points is a candidate in trouble."
Connecticut-based Quinnipiac regularly gauges Ohioans' opinions of candidates and issues. From Sept. 9 to 14, it surveyed 730 likely voters in the state.
Among the results, 60 percent of those polled disapprove of the job Obama is doing as president.
And 49 percent said they want Republicans rather than Democrats in control of the U.S. Senate, compared to 31 percent who said the opposite.
"Among the likely Ohio electorate for this November, President Barack Obama is not a popular fellow," Brown said. "Independent likely voters disapprove 65–31 percent of the job he is doing. With the president such a heavy weight around the neck of Democratic candidates, it will be hard for one to win such a high-profile office this year in Ohio."
Oh boy
Let the record reflect that Peter A. Brown is a spin postured liar,..
Lee Fisher is losing that race because nobody knows a damn thing good about him,.. PERIOD !!!
The Independent based voters wanted Jennifer Brunner as the candidate. However, the regional take over of the democrat disguise force funded Lee Fisher and they're going to lose the seat.
There's absolutely NOTHING you can link a Lee Fisher to president Obama with. Thus to allege Fisher is losing to a Rob Portman because of president Obama is a twisted and non supportable,.. LIE !!!!
See that alleged anti-incumbent lie that clown Peter A. Brown is trumpeting. Actually only had effect on the republicans,.. What a contrast that Browns running from.
That's in spite of the fact that they're doing all they can to derail the Obama presidency and stall the democratic congress from further aiding the nation,.. CHECK THE PRIMARIES !!!
There will be no Republican / Teabagger takeover of the house nor senate in November. Then we'll see just how worthless a Peter A. Brown is.
Where if those sentiments were in anyway correct then Tim Ryan would be the first in Ohio to not be re-elected.
See Tim Ryan has worked quiet well and closely with the Obama administration to have made vast improvement to the economic emergency within the state.
In contrast both Ted Strickland and Lee Fisher hasn't and look at the difference in their candidacies in regards to voter support,.. How Profound.
So the LIE trying to blame their problems with voters on that " Black Guy ". Is a veiled cunning clan boys Teabagger tag-line in print that makes no sense and bears no credence,..
See I happen to contribute to various outlets of factual truths. That's untangling the misinformation syndicates. That's progressively making clowns like Peter A. Brown and their propaganda perched publications worthless,..COMPARE OUR ACCURACY IN NOVEMBER !!!
Off the Med's I see!
Pssst { you two clowns },..
Listen rudypoot & Salad_Doggie Doo,.. see how this goes is even as much as you fake liking lying to yourselves. I actually enjoy telling the truth on those like you even more,... ROTFFLMAO !!!
Rob and Jane Portman are SW Ohio neighbors of mine. They are the type of people one puts in their will to raise one's chldren in case of untimely demise. They will serve Ohio quite well.
@ Nunya- Where's these vast improvements in Ohio that Timmy and Nobama are supposed to have brought to the region? The unemployment rate is higher now than it was last year!

Brookes books his place, Seeley not giving up
25 July 2012
Josh Brookes booked his place in the 2012 MCE British Superbike Championship title Showdown with two runner-up places at Brands Hatch on Sunday.
The Tyco Suzuki rider's tenth and eleventh podiums of the season were enough to confirm a top six place - alongside Tommy Hill and Shane Byrne - with two Main Season rounds still to spare.
"I'm not usually happy with second place but on this occasion I'm happy enough. I enjoyed both races and the bike worked perfectly; we just didn't quite have enough to match Shakey out there," said Brookes, who finished just 0.5s and 1.5s behind double Brands winner Byrne.
"We lost time in qualifying with the crash but we worked hard, made a few changes after race one and that gave me more confidence. You could see what I was doing, trying inside, outside and every side to force Shakey into a mistake, as I knew if I just sat there he's never make one, but he doesn't crack.
"It was a good weekend. Thanks to all the boys in the team for the big effort."
While Brookes can concentrate on podium credits and prepare for the Showdown, team-mate Alastair Seeley is just tenth in the standings and needs to bridge a 23-point gap to Noriyuki Haga, who currently holds the final Showdown place.
"There's a few twists and turns to come yet I'd say, so I'm not giving up on that Showdown place until it's mathematically impossible," declared Seeley, who claimed 9-11 results at Brands.
