Two lifelong friends (Seth Rogen, Elizabeth Banks) decide to make an adult film to solve their cash problems.
Movie Reviews from Rotten Tomatoes®
" "
" [Rogen's] funny, it works. "
" All in all it's a modern-day, Kevin Smith fairytale: a big-screen bearing, perhaps, of his soul at its sincerest and wittiest, if not filthiest. "
" Everyone on screen seems to be having so much fun. "
" The audience where I watched the movie laughed so hard that we all probably missed a third of the lines, and it was still one of the funnier movies I've seen this year. "
" There are laughs. Big, loud laughs. Laughs of self-recognition, laughs at social duplicity, laughs at prejudices of all types. Lots of laughs about the most basic of human functions. And many, many laughs at our own inhibitions. "
" While I wouldn't call the role of cheery, foul-mouthed Miri nuanced, Banks and Rogen click in a way that Rogen and Katherine Heigl in Knocked Up did not. "
" Zack and Miri Make a Porno is crude and raunchy, but it's also a great date movie. See it with someone you love -- and want to grope. "
" Zack and Miri Make a Porno, in spite of its lewdness, follows a gee-whiz romantic-comedy formula that would not be out of place on the Disney Channel. "
" Despite all the waggish raunch-talk, it's just not especially funny. And despite all the agile intercourse (originally rated NC-17), it's frankly kind of a bore. "
" It's one thing for a movie to be dirty; it's another thing altogether for it to be plain sloppy. "
" Kevin Smith turns out to be reverent after all: he wants to separate true love from mere copulating for money, but his story mixes romance and porn so inextricably that he seems confused, and the movie trips over its own conceits. "
" Other peoples' emotional intimacy can be downright embarrassing. Here, sadly, it's also boring. "
" Seth Rogen is totally out of control. He's been marvelously funny in the past, and will be again, but get that party animal back in his cage. "
" Smith may have pioneered this kind of upfront sex chat, but the Apatow team refined it. 'Zack and Miri' feels uncomfortably like a gruesome game of filth-talk oneupmanship, and it's hard to care who comes out on top. "
" The jokes are forced, almost mechanical, in their crudeness. They're so carefully placed that they feel a little precious rather than spontaneous, which ends up defying that impulsive, animal thing inside us. "
" The mood lurches around a bit, and the film itself feels a bit diluted -- as if Kevin Smith were doing Judd Apatow doing Kevin Smith. And Smith, and his fans, are far too original to settle for that for long. "
" There may not be a special movie rating for this kind of coyness, but it definitely feels like emotional porn. "
" Without the wit, raunchiness tends to feel uncomfortably forced. And the moments when Z&M works are, almost without exception, the ones that are more sweet than shocking. All the rest, frankly, feel like Apatow Lite. "
" Zack and Miri isn't very funny. Laugh-out-loud bits here are as rare as real breasts in an adult film. "

Carrots cooked with North Indian spices and milk, then pureed into a smooth soup.
I love Idlis. Here's a North Indian touch to this classic comfort food from the South. You can use any vegetables you have in the fridge.
Is there a home in India that doesn't start its morning with a steaming cup of kadak chai? Or have it after dopeher ka siesta? This is my mother's recipe for masala chai. You can easily multiply the ingredients to make your monthly stash. Masala Chai goes great with paranthas, aloo tikki, samose or mithai. The peppercorns and cinnamon are great for the throat and stomach.

The pituitary gland is sometimes called the "master" gland of the endocrine system because it controls the functions of many of the other endocrine glands. The pituitary gland is no larger than a pea, and is located at the base of the brain. The gland is attached to the hypothalamus (a part of the brain that affects the pituitary gland) by nerve fibers and blood vessels. The pituitary gland itself consists of 2 major structures:
Anterior lobe
Posterior lobe
Each lobe of the pituitary gland produces certain hormones.
Growth hormone
Prolactin (to stimulate milk production after giving birth)
ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone which regulates the adrenal glands)
TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone which regulates the thyroid gland)
FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone which regulates the ovaries and testes)
LH (luteinizing hormone which regulates the ovaries or testes)
ADH (antidiuretic hormone is produced in the hypothalamus, stored in the pituitary gland, and increases absorption of water into the bloodby the kidneys)
Oxytocin (to contract the uterus during childbirth and stimulate milk production)

Hippodrome confirms 'Book of Mormon' for 2013-2014 season
First, the good news:
The Hippodrome Theatre has confirmed what could only be vaguely hinted at before, namely that "The Book of Mormon," the hottest Broadway musical in years, will play Baltimore.
The bad news:
Those singing, dancing Mormons will not hit the Hippodrome stage until the 2013-2014 season. But, hey, that's really not so far off.
The musical, which was created by the folks behind "South Park" and which won nine Tonys, starts its national tour this coming season. It will reach the Kennedy Center next July.
The dates for the Baltimore visit have not yet been finalized. Subscribers to the 2012-2013 Hippodrome Broadway Series will be first in line for the 'Mormon'-spiced 2013-2014 season.

Budweiser Addresses Murder Music Complaint
Timothy Kincaid
March 12th, 2008
Last Saturday there was a concert in Tampa that featured the Beenie Man. This artist has a history of advocating for murder and violence against gay men and women in his lyrics.
We expressed our concern to two national brands that were listed as sponsors of this concert, Budweiser Select and metroPCS.
Today we received the following e-mail from Anheuser-Busch:
Dear Timothy,
Thank you for contacting Anheuser-Busch regarding the WiLD Splash concert series.
Anheuser-Busch is not a sponsor of WiLD Splash. The local, independent Anheuser-Busch distributor is a partner of radio station WLLD, and agreed to sponsor the concert series months earlier without the benefit of knowing the entire artist line-up. The local distributor will address this issue with WLLD Radio and will perform its own research on acts slated for any future concert series.
Anheuser-Busch exercises no direct control over the marketing efforts of independent wholesalers including their sponsorships, participating artists or content of such an event. However, neither Anheuser-Busch or any of our wholesalers would knowingly participate in any sponsorship, promotion or performance that denigrates any segment of our consumers, and we specifically denounce any espoused violence against the LGBT community.
Regretfully, some confusion in the original consumer contact and our own internal processes failed to escalate this consumer inquiry in a timely manner allowing Anheuser-Busch to strongly advise the wholesaler against any participation in the event. Additional safeguards have been put in place to accelerate our processes to prevent future problems; specifically, all future LGBT issues will be sent directly to my attention for immediate handling.
Anheuser-Busch maintains a corporate commitment to zero tolerance for discrimination and the belief that every consumer is important, regardless of race, sex, religion, color, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability or veteran's status.
Thank you again for bringing this regrettable situation to our attention and rest assured that it will be addressed at all levels within the Anheuser-Busch family.
James Ramey
Manager, Multi-Cultural Marketing
I appreciate the difficulty of managing the image of a national brand while allowing local sponsorship decisions. And I commend Mr. Ramey for identifying the problem, taking a strong stance against homophobic music, and establishing steps to ensure that the Budweiser Select name does not again become associated with murder music.
So folks, this week when you're catching the game (or the American Idol results show) crack open a cold Bud.
On the other hand, we have still to hear any response or even acknowlegement of our communication from metroPCS.

Who will guard the grammarians?
Today is National Grammar Day. Watch your step.
You had better, because you have been given bad advice for years.
In "The Language Mavens," a chapter in The Language Instinct, Steven Pinker expresses frustration at the self-appointed guardians of English usage, the purveyors of rules that are not rules and idiosyncratic preferences masquerading as settled law. That would be, for example, John Simon, William Safire on his off days, many (if not most) copy editors, authors of blogs like this one. To be fair, his scorn for ill-informed prescriptivists is matched by his regret that academic linguists have been ineffective at informing the public.
There is a reason for the proliferation of bogus advice on language. Here's where it all started:
In the 18th century, Britain became a world power, and the gradual fading of Latin as an international language made English more important as an expression of imperial power. At the same time, a steadily rising middle class required instruction in proper manners, dress, speech and conduct. There was therefore a market for manuals on correct English. (There is still a market for books advising the uncertain middle class how to dress, talk, write, etc. And diet. The middle class has always been an easy mark.)
The authors of these manuals operated on the principle that to elevate English to the level of prestige languages such as Latin and Greek, English must be made to resemble Latin and Greek. Therefore, for example, English sentences should not end with prepositions, since Latin sentences did not. Here also was the origin of the prohibition on splitting infinitives.
The whole question of what was "proper" English was unsettled. The French Academy had been struggling since the mid-17th century to regulate the French language, and English writers such as Jonathan Swift toyed with the idea on a comparable English Academy. (The "Immortals" of l'Academie francaise continue in their struggle, losing ground annually as the language develops in disregard of their precepts.)
Samuel Johnnson, embarking on the task of constructing the first comprehensive English dictionary, found "speech copious without order, and energetick without rules: wherever I turned my view, there was perplexity to be disentangled, and confusion to be regulated; choice was to be made out of boundless variety, without any established principle of selection; adulterations were to be detected, without a settled test of purity; and modes of expression to be rejected or received, without the suffrages of any writers of classical reputation or acknowledged authority."
Elsewhere in his great "Preface," Johnson acknowledges the inevitable mutability of language: "Copiousness of speech will give opportunities to capricious choice, by which some words will be preferred, and others degraded; vicissitudes of fashion will enforce the use of new, or extend the signification of known terms. The tropes of poetry will make hourly encroachments, and the metaphorical will become the current sense: pronunciation will be varied by levity or ignorance, and the pen must at length comply with the tongue; illiterate writers will at one time or other, by publick infatuation, rise into renown, who, not knowing the original import of words, will use them with colloquial licentiousness, confound distinction, and forget propriety. As politeness increases, some expressions will be considered as too gross and vulgar for the delicate, others as too formal and ceremonious for the gay and airy; new phrases are therefore adopted, which must, for the same reasons, be in time dismissed. Swift, in his petty treatise on the English language, allows that new words must sometimes be introduced, but proposes that none should be suffered to become obsolete. But what makes a word obsolete, more than general agreement to forbear it? and how shall it be continued, when it conveys an offensive idea, or recalled again into the mouths of mankind, when it has once by disuse become unfamiliar, and by unfamiliarity unpleasing."
Even though he restricted his examples of usage in the Dictionary of 1755 to what he considered the best writers in English, he recognized that prescriptivism has its limits.
So, without an Academy to determine an authoritative English, and without the ability of dictionary makers to "fix" the language, the task of establishing principles of grammar and usage has fallen to a mixed group authorities of varying reliability.
There are the textbooks of English used in elementary schools. The easiest way to write a textbook is to imitate another textbook, and by that means the superstitions and shibboleths have persisted over the generations. Mr. Pinker points out that "once introduced, a prescriptive rule is very hard to eradicate, no matter how ridiculous. Inside the educational and writing establishments, the rules survive by the same dynamic that perpetuates ritual genital mutilations and college fraternity hazing: I had to go through it and am none the worse, so why should you have it any easier?"
For American newspapers, The Associated Press Stylebook, periodically revised, has been a guide to usage, though the writers of the Associated Press and the newspapers that use the stylebook regularly flout its dictates. (And its processes are irritatingly circular. AP bases the stylebook on the practices of its member newspapers, but its member newspapers look to it for guidance.) There are manuals of usage, some for college use such as the Harbrace College Handbook, and there are manuals for the general public, such as this battery of books that I regularly consult:
Garner's Modern American Usage by Bryan A. Garner. Written by a specialist in law, a moderate and reasonable prescriptivist.
Merriam-Webster's Dictionary of English Usage. Detailed and also reasonable, though more heavily academic than Garner. (Merriam-Webster and Garner, along with Pinker, are the principal sources for the information above on the development of books of grammar and usage.)
The New Fowler's Modern English Usage by the late R.W. Burchfield, former editor of the Oxford English Dictionary.
The Careful Writer by Theodore Bernstein. A little dated (from 1979) but generally sound.
Words on Words by the late John B. Bremner, a delightfully cranky manual.
And I have at hand, largely for sentimental purposes, the second edition of Fowler's Modern English Usage and my 1959 edition of The Elements of Style.
The problem for the writer and editor is that the authorities do not agree on every particular, and it becomes necessary to make judgments based on one's own tastes and experience of the language. In effect, each of us must become his or her own usage authority, because there is no universally accepted central authority on English grammar and usage.
Arnold Zwicky enlarges on this point in a post at Language Log full of scorn for National Grammar Day: "Paul Kiparsky has noted on several occasions that while in some European countries the prescribing of language forms for certain public purposes is the job of official bodies, which normally include language scholars (as well as literary figures), this sort of regulation has been PRIVATIZED in English-speaking countries: it's managed by commercial publishers, newspaper and magazine editors, and a whole industry of free-lance advisers, only a few of whom know much about either the nature of language or the structure and history of English. Such an arrangement resonates with American free-enterprise ideals and also with the widespread American disdain for 'experts' and 'intellectuals'.
"In any case, one result of this arrangement is that there's essentially no one to speak with any authority for rational reform, no one to accord some sort of official status to variants. Instead, all sorts of proscriptions live on in the marketplace of ideas -- proscriptions against stranded prepositions, split infinitives, sentences beginning with coordinating conjunctions, 'singular they', and many more we've discussed here, endlessly — even when the 'high-end' advice literature generally admits them. What we get is people on the Microsoft Encarta website shrieking for the public shaming of linguistic miscreants, and a lot of peevish ranting all over the place."
I hope that Mr. Zwicky doesn't mean to imply that an English Academy of professional linguists is just the remedy, given that linguists appear to be as enthusiastically devoted to squabbling among themselves and inventing arcane terminology as any other group of academics.
We are almost certainly stuck with the language as it is, as it is spoken and written and commented on by its speakers and writers, messiness being an apparent corollary of liberty. It would be pleasant to establish some common understanding between the reasonable prescriptivists and the linguists, for the sake of increasing the store of sound advice for students and the puzzled writer. Perhaps, instead of talking among themselves on Language Log and other sites, linguists might be persuaded to give some practical help to those of us who, rather than indulging in peevish ranting, are trying to achieve clarity of prose and reasonable practices of grammar and usage in newspapers, magazines, books and electronic publications.
Until that glorious day, you, dear reader, are on your own. Find the people whose advice seems sensible to you, and follow it.

Proposed state legislation for alternative funding and Civic San Diego's vision explained at forum
Senate Bill 1
The Sustainable Communities Investment Authorities bill includes these provisions:
•Creates "sustainable communities investment areas" along transit corridors or around major transit stops; for small walkable communities (one per city); or for clean-energy manufacturing operations.
•Permits tax-increment financing — setting aside property taxes generated from new development and property appreciation — only if a city adopts restricted parking rules in transit-priority areas, requires prevailing wages for funded projects in the investment zones and sets a minimum of 20 dwelling units per acre in walkable community projects.
•Requires at least 25 percent of tax increment be set aside for affordable housing.
•Allows state and local pension systems to invest in investment area public infrastructure.
•Authorizes investment area authorities to be set up by a city; a city, county or special district together; or a county for an unincorporated area. A school district may not participate in an authority.
With the economy picking up steam, Sen. Darrell Steinberg, president pro tem of the state Senate, came to San Diego to tout his proposed legislation to revitalize older neighborhoods.
"Whether we call it redevelopment or economic development, it's really important how we create these types of projects, how we revitalize communities, how we take blighted areas and make them better," Steinberg told a San Diego Foundation forum last week. The discussion was prompted by last year's end to the state's 400 redevelopment agencies — a move by Gov. Jerry Brown to help plug a big hole in the state budget.
The biggest loser was affordable housing, which was guaranteed 20 percent, or about $40 million, annually from the so-called tax increment generated from San Diego city's former redevelopment program. Steinberg, D-Sacramento, would increase that guarantee to 25 percent.
Tax increment was the amount in property taxes generated from new development and property appreciation set aside for infrastructure, housing and economic development in San Diego's 14 former redevelopment project areas. And some of that money has been redirected back to school districts to replace state support.
Steinberg said his bill, SB1, which would create city agencies called "sustainable communities authorities," with redevelopment-like powers.
But he acknowledged the new setup would generate less money for housing and other projects because school district tax receipts would no longer be available for public improvements.
In San Diego's case, that would cut overall tax increment collections by about 43 percent and leave affordable housing with about $21.5 million per year if all the former redevelopment zones became community investment areas.
Susan Riggs Tinsky, executive director of the San Diego Housing Federation, which lobbies for affordable housing, said she was heartened to hear that housing would get a higher priority under SB1.
"If there is a silver lining to the loss of redevelopment, we are really forced to think creatively about tools we have right now and think about what tools we could have," Tinsky said.
The old redevelopment system was tied to eradication of blight, whereas Steinberg's would target support along public-transit corridors, such as El Cajon Boulevard, University Avenue and the San Diego Trolley's Orange Line through Logan Heights, Mount Hope, Valencia Park and Encanto.
Steinberg said the governor vetoed last year's bill because redevelopment agencies were still winding down. Because the new version includes Brown's hoped-for high-speed rail stations and corridors, the governor might be more willing to lend his support.
The Senate Governance and Finance Committee approved SB1 on March 13 and referred it to the Transportation and Housing Committee.
Also at the San Diego Foundation forum, Civic San Diego President Jeff Graham said his citywide agency, which replaced the Centre City Development Corp. that focused on downtown, is looking a number of alternate funding choices, including:
• Public-private investment funds;
• Builder-paid public benefits, such as parkland, in exchange for more development rights;
• Investments from immigrants seeking permanent-residency status; and,
• Foundations, grants and tax credits.

HTC Legend and Desire Smartphones with Enhanced Sense
Taiwanese manufacturer HTC announced at Embedded World in Barcelona that in the coming spring it will release two new Android mobile phones for which it further developed its Sense user experience.
Sense is the name of the user interface that HTC introduced in mid-2009 for its Hero Android phone. The interface distinguishes itself from others in that users can thematically assemble personalized desktops and views. The new Sense enhancements extend to social networking and contacts: the new Friend Stream client application uploads new contacts from Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and others to the screen. Users can group local contacts into Friends or Colleagues (see the Gallery). HTC added another news reader feature as well as a view of the seven screens that belong to the Sense concept. This view shows thumbnails of all the screens, in case the user loses the overall context.
The Snapdragon-based phones present their applications on 3.2" (Legend) and 3.7" (Desire) screens, respectively. Instead of a trackball they include a sort of finger-operated optical joystick. The Legend also has the special characteristic of aluminum uni-body construction.
North American availability was not yet announced, but Vodafone and A1should be handling the phones in Europe and Telstra in Australia. The HTC Desire will hit the market Q2 in Europe and Asia; the Legend will roll out in April. Pricing will be revealed sometime in the future.

|Braley Calls for House Hearing into CFTC Oversight of Peregrine Financial Group
|News Releases - General Info
|Written by Jeff Giertz
|Monday, 16 July 2012 14:21
Alleged misappropriation of investor funds for twenty years calls into question CFTC's oversight
Washington, D.C. – Rep. Bruce Braley (IA-01) today called on the US House Oversight and Government Reform Committee to investigate the Commodities Futures Trading Commission's role in allowing Peregrine Financial Group of Cedar Falls to apparent misappropriate $200 million of investor funds over 20 years in what could be the largest financial fraud in Iowa history.
In a letter to committee Chairman Darrell Issa and Ranking Member Elijah Cummings, Braley requested a hearing into Peregrine Financial Group and the CFTC's oversight of commodities trading. Braley is a member of the House Oversight Committee.
"It's shocking to think that Peregrine was defrauding its customers for more than 20 years," Braley said. "My question is, where were the regulators who should have stopped this long ago and how did Peregrine so easily fool them?
"It's the job of regulators to protect farmers, families, and businesses who have invested in futures. I'm greatly concerned that this misappropriation of funds was allowed to continue for so long before it was discovered. Iowans deserve answers – especially those who were victims of Peregrine's fraud."
In court filings, federal prosecutors allege that Russell Wassendorf, Sr., CEO of Peregrine Financial Group, admitted to falsifying bank statements and defrauding customers for 20 years.
The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has said that Peregrine has "used customer funds for purposes other than those intended by its customers." According to CFTC, the money has been misused for years and as many as 1,845 investors are missing their money.
The full text of Braley's letter to Issa and Cummings follows.
July 16, 2012
The Honorable Darrel Issa
Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
B3540-A, Rayburn HOB
Washington, DC 20515
The Honorable Elijah Cummings
Ranking Member
Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
2471 Rayburn HOB
Washington, DC 20515
Dear Chairman Issa and Ranking Member Cummings:
I am writing to bring to your attention the apparent misappropriation of more than $200 million in client funds by Peregrine Financial Group, an Iowa-based futures trading company. According to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), Peregrine has "used customer funds for purposes other than those intended by its customers."
According to a criminal complaint filed by the U.S. Attorney on Friday, Russell Wassendorf, Sr., Founder and CEO of Peregrine Financial Group, admitted that he was defrauding his customers for as long as 20 years. According to court documents, Peregrine had as many as 1,845 investors – and it is unclear whether their money will ever be recovered.
It is the job of regulators to protect farmers, families, and businesses who have invested in futures. I'm greatly concerned that this misappropriation of funds was allowed to continue so long before being discovered.
In the wake of the MF Global debacle and these new allegations at Peregrine Financial Group, I ask that you immediately hold a hearing to look at unanswered questions related to the role of the CFTC in allowing this situation to continue and investigate whether this agency had the proper procedures in place to prevent this type of abuse from happening again. It is absolutely essential that there is investor confidence in our commodity trading system.
It is also important that any hearing focus on whether there is a process in place to expedite the recovery of the assets of these investors.
Thanks again for your consideration of this request. We owe it to American taxpayers and investors to ensure a secure marketplace where they can trust that their money is protected from fraud.
Bruce L. Braley
Member of Congress

Lecturers from UCL Chemistry (Andrea Sella and Steve Price) have gone out regularly with their demonstration kits to present these lively and exciting displays of chemistry. These lectures are suitable for high school students of all ages. Unfortunately, because of the cost and time involved, such lectures are only available to large groups (minimum audience of 100, Science Days/Fairs, large scale BAYS events and the like) within the M25 area and we would normally expect a contribution towards travel costs for the demo lectures, though this is negotiable. These visits need to be arranged well in advance. We are happy to discuss with you what we can offer. These demonstration lectures are also given regularly at our in-house events listed here.

I am posting this on Thursday afternoon due to my work schedule and ask that someone bump it up to page one Friday morning.
Today I will talk a little bit about my travels.
We went on a family vacation 2 weeks ago to Arizona, where we stayed for 4 days in Sedona and 4 days in Scottsdale. While in Sedona we were at a Bed & Breakfast that I would highly recommend. The breakfasts were delicious, and they had some really nice touches. In each guest's room there was a bread machine, and every afternoon we would come back to a loaf of freshly baked bread. It made the room smell soooo good. From 5PM - 6PM they served appetizers, and then they brought us different home baked cookies each evening. It was a real treat, but it was tough not to gain weight. Luckliy we did a lot of hiking, at least 2 hours each day so that helped keep things in check.
As you read this today I am in Washington DC on a business trip. I travel fairly regularly for work, usually 1 or 2 days each trip somewhere in the US. Some of my recent business trips include: New York City, San Francisco, Washington DC, Chicago, St Louis, Dallas, Austin, San Diego, and Las Vegas.
When my DH and I graduated from university in 1985 (though he was not yet my DH) we spent a summer backpacking through Europe. Over 2 months we visited: Israel, Greece, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, France and Belgium. I have family in both Israel and France, so we stayed with them when we were there, but otherwise we stayed at small 1 star hotels or youth hostels. It was a great summer!
I really love to travel, but in the last 14 years since we have had children we have only been away for 2 weekends without the kids. We just have no one to stay with them so we travel as a family. My mom is the only grandparent still alive, and she is not physically able to look after the kids. I do look forward to an adult vacation again one day...maybe in another 15 years or so! Hopefully we will still be fit enough to enjoy it...
Thank you all for putting up with my rambings this week, I really enjoyed writing these entries.
I do not get on-line over the weekend, so will ask someone else to start the weekend editions of WFD if that's OK.
QOTD - Do you like to travel? What has been your favourite trip?
AOTD - My favourite trip was my honeymoon - we went to Palm Springs, San Diego and Las Vegas over 2 weeks, and stayed at really nice hotels. It was just so relaxing after all the hustle and bustle of the wedding planning.
WFD- Normally on Friday nights we do a traditional Sabbath dinner, but I am out of town so I have left a beef stew that I cooked yesterday for DH to reheat with some rice, and salad.

Leave a Plate of Matzoh for Santa
Celebrating two faiths during the holidays allowed me to appreciate twice as much
Growing up in an interfaith home not only offered me a unique perspective on holiday celebration, it allowed me to experience two religions and cultures, to both of which I still subscribe today. Even more important, our home was open to a large extended family, with everyone partaking in celebrations that differed from their own. When you think of it, most people lack an appreciation for religious beliefs and celebrations other than their own due to limited exposure or participation.
On Christmas Eve, following Midnight Mass, our family opened presents, all the presents except for the one that Santa delivered personally after bedtime. In our house, Santa always brought the best present of all. On Christmas Eve, in most houses it is a tradition to leave Santa a snack of cookies and milk. Our house was much the same. But I do recall the year in which there was not a cookie in the house, not a crumb or a chip, not even an animal cracker. "Mom, there are no cookies for Santa," I said. "Let me look," she replied. "Here, use these," she said as she pulled the Manischewitz box from the cupboard. "Here, leave a plate of matzo for Santa." Without a second thought, the accompaniment to Santa's glass of milk that year was his plate of matzo...

Air Force Academy trainer plane crash investigated
AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. (AP) — The Air Force is investigating after a training plane crashed into an Air Force Academy hangar while landing.
Neither the cadet nor the instructor pilot aboard was injured when the T-53 Kadet 2 crashed on Monday.
Their names haven't been released.
Air Force spokeswoman Bekah Clark says training flights were grounded as of Tuesday morning, but it wasn't immediately known if they had resumed.
Clark did not know how badly the plane and the hangar were damaged.
The single-engine, low-wing T-53 is the Air Force version of the Cirrus SR20. The academy acquired 25 of the aircraft last year for about $244,000 each.

I Made A Promise To Be A Strong MamaAlyson Brown
Yesterday we took Wolf for his 2 month well baby visit and he's doing great. He's gaining weight right on track {hooray!} and he's in the 90th percentile for his height{whoa!}. The nurse said he's a long, lean baby! At the end of the appointment, Wolf got his first set of vaccines. My husband stood with him because I'm not the biggest fan of needles, but I could still see his little face. He was SUCH a sad baby but I think it was me who was even sadder.
My baby boy is the most happy baby I know. He cries only when he's hungry or if he's really really sleepy. The rest of the time he's all smiles and coos. But last night was the saddest I'd seen him ever. He cried real tears, you guys. Real tears!!! His little eyelashes were damp and you could just see in his little face that he didn't feel good and his body just hurt. I couldn't help but want to cry with him and it took all my effort to hold it together.
I suppose this was just one of the many moments in Wolf's life where I have to be strong. It's a little frightening not knowing what events might come up where I have to bite my tongue to hold back tears. I'm a bit of a weanie sometimes and I cry really easily. But when I was pregnant, I made a promise to myself and to Wolf that I'd be a strong mom. And knowing the adrenaline junkie personalities of the boys in our families, I'm sure I'll have to be stronger than I think possible!

It appears that Captain America's got style. Massachusetts-born Chris Evans, who recently announced that he'd be calling it quits on acting in lieu of a directing career, has that casual-cool thing down pat. Easy plaid and chambray atop the darkest of denim. Henleys edged up with leather jackets. Suits, when the occasion requires them, sexified with a bit of scruff.
To cop one of his signature looks, follow these few simple steps:
- Start with the easiest of shirts – a graphic tee or laid-back button-front (cuffed, to expose superhero forearms).
- Add relaxed, not skinny, pants. As Evans once told InStyle: "I've got ridiculously thin legs, so I hate skinny jeans. My Paper Denim & Cloth jeans give me a little extra bag in the butt – as if I might actually have one."
- Finish with a broken-in moto jacket or hoodie, unzipped. Want to take the look a step further? Try it in camo.
Extra inspiration, right this way. Our Leading Man: Get Chris Evans's Casual-Cool Look Boutique opens Sunday, March 30, at 11AM ET.

On a winning team, a reclamation project like Grady Sizemore would not be receiving much playing time right now.
Most winning teams have their outfields set by July, but the Phillies obviously don't fit that description.
One of the perks of a lost season is the ability to give chances to players who may serve a role for you in the future.
Sizemore has gotten that chance, and so far looks like a piece the Phils could use moving forward.
"He's really been all about getting reps," manager Ryne Sandberg said of Sizemore. "He's glad to be back in the big leagues and showing what he can do.
"He's got a lot of things driving him, and it's really impressive to see him hang in there against some tough left-handed pitchers. Having quality at-bats, driving it the other way. He's a professional hitter."
Sizemore entered Saturday night's game against Arizona hitting .341 with four doubles and an .825 OPS in 11 games as a Phillie. He's gone 12 for 30 as the Phils' leadoff man, and he was back atop their lineup in the second game of a three-game series against the Diamondbacks.
In the series opening win over Arizona, Sizemore doubled twice and stole third base.
He had a unique blend of power and speed during his prime years in Cleveland before a series of injuries. The speed aspect of Sizemore's game is the one he's still waiting on.
"I think the running part of it will come along as he continues to play, whether it's the rest of this year or the offseason or into next year," Sandberg said. "That's something he's shown improvement on. That's actually the one thing he told me -- he's still feeling his way a little bit with rounding bases, with real good aggressive base running, although [Friday] night he stole third base, which was a perfect time to do it, a big set-up stolen base.
"I think he's gaining confidence with it and I think he'll continue to gain confidence with the running part of the game and the twisting you do on a baseball field."
With the season-long struggles of Domonic Brown and the possibility of Marlon Byrd being traded before Thursday's 4 p.m. deadline, Sizemore could become a true everyday outfielder for the Phillies in the second half.
And if he can stay healthy, there's no reason he can't be a productive outfielder with solid defense at all three spots and a ton of upside at the plate.
In his last full season, Sizemore hit .268/.374/.502 with 39 doubles, 33 homers, 90 RBIs and 38 steals for the Indians. Yes, that was 2008, the last of his All-Star seasons. But Sizemore, 31 years old, is young by recent Phillies standards.
Even if he stays healthy during the second half of the season, it will likely be hard for him to find a multi-year deal in free agency or a guaranteed starting job, making a return to the Phils a beneficial move for both sides.
But that decision is months away. For now, it's just enjoyable to see a Phillies outfielder other than Byrd producing when given the at-bats to do so.

All About Altars
Whether elaborate or spartan, what a true home altar really needs is attention and faith.
: I would like to create a home shrine. What are the essentials of a true Buddhist altar? Tibetans often have amazing altars in their temples and homes, but I would like to have something simpler, so I'm looking for the basics.
: I love altar practice. My home shrine helps focus my spiritual practice and create sacred space, and my meditation seat in front of the altar invites me to daily practice. Not that you need an altar or other kinds of props for following the path of awakening, but altars are a beautiful, and helpful, part of spiritual life.
If I don't have time for an hour or 30 minutes of meditation, just bowing and offering candles and incense--which just takes a minute--makes quite a difference to my state of mind, and therefore to my entire day. Simply entering that sacred space calms me down, brings me to center, and provides the blessings and awareness that I delight in through contemplative practice.
The late Buddhist teacher, Yogi Chen, offered the following five reasons for setting up a home altar:
The basic altar is a focus of spiritual inspiration and beauty: it could consist of simply a candle or candelabra, or a flower or flowers, a crystal, a holy icon, a picture of a saint or religious leader, or an object endowed with personal meaning, placed, with reverence, in a clean and high place.
A simple Buddhist altar, common to nearly all Buddhist traditions, has a Buddha statue or picture, and perhaps a candle, incense, and flowers. Ideally, Buddhist altars should be set in the east; this is because the Buddha sat facing east beneath the Bodhi Tree in Bodh Gaya, when he espied the morning star and experienced great enlightenment. The east is where the sun rises, illuminating us all. Of course, you can visualize this as being the case, regardless of where the altar is placed.
|If I don't have time for an hour or 30 minutes of meditation, just bowing and offering candles and incense makes quite a difference to my state of mind.
A traditional Tibetan Buddhist altar has specific elements, placed on three levels. On the uppermost level is a central Buddha statue, and perhaps subsidiary statues. Other images, such as pictures and statues of lineage masters and are arrayed on the second level or tier, along with symbolic elements such as a stupa (pagoda-shaped reliquary), holy relics, a dharma wheel, vital Buddhist texts, a mandala, a crystal, a conch shell, a censer, a bell or gong, and peacock feathers.
For simplicity's sake, it is taught that you need three things on a Tibetan altar to represent the Three Jewels of Refuge –the Buddha, the Dharma (the teachings) and the Sangha (the community of practioners)--and the Buddha's Body, Speech and Mind. These are a rupa (or statue of the Buddha), a dharma text, and a stupa.

Hi sebdumai,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the basic steps in the article above (Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Troubleshooting audio issues) did not resolve the situation. If you were not able to restart the device using the remote, I recommend doing so using one of these methods:
- Restart your Apple TV by selecting Settings > General > Restart.
- Unplug the Apple TV power cord for three seconds, and then plug it back in.
Apple TV: How to restart your Apple TV
If you continue to experience the issue after completing the above steps, try these steps:
- Set the audio output mode for the Apple TV:
- With your Apple Remote, select Settings > Audio & Video.
- Change the Audio Output setting from Auto to 16 bit.
- Turn off the Dolby Digital Out setting (your TV or receiver may not be properly detecting a Dolby Digital signal):
- With your Apple Remote, select Settings > Audio & Video.
- Change the Dolby Digital Out setting from On to Off.

Country singing star Mindy McCready is the latest victim of leaked online sextapes, and this time Vivid got ahold of the tape. The sex tape is called Mindy McCready Baseball Mistress and show's the blond beauty romping in the sack with an exboyfriend 'Peter'. Mindy can also be heard talking about former fling Roger Clemens and his issues with ED and other former lovers. See the Mindy McCready tape now and be one of the lucky few to see her completely naked and taking it hard.
The video tape shows Mindy on a bed taking it in pretty much every position you can imagine, with some nice screaming mixed in. You can clearly see her large breasts bouncing in the tape. The tape then moves to her doing the deed with her mouth, it's damn hot! Don't miss this celeb scandal.
Mindy is currently making a comeback in the music scene and plans to restart her country music career. Perhaps this leaked sex tape will shoot her back into the spotlight and to the top of the charts!

|AZP 80 with trough connection
|Owner's Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual
|AZP 80 without trough connection
MEIKO's AZP 80 is an advanced, high-capacity waste pulper that reduces food and mixed waste volume by up to 85%.
Normal kitchen waste, with its high water content, is an ideal carrier for disease and odors. The AZP 80 solves these problems by reducing food waste to a nearly dry and odorless pulp, using a tungsten carbide grinding mechanism and a dewatering press. An automatic flushing mechanism keeps the unit operating at maximum efficiency during peak loads.
Reducing waste volume also reduces labor costs, by decreasing the time and effort needed for trash removal. It also reduces costs associated with waste transportation, disposal and pest control. The AZP 80 is easy to operate, clean and service.
Available options for the AZP 80 include:
- Left-to-right or right-to-left operation
- Choice of waste chute directions: Front, rear or inline
- Choice of either freestanding configuration, or two different water trough recirculation pumps, to accommodate a variety of flushing trough systems

Night Flights, Hearing Voices, & Small Arms Fire
The first was a night flight with an instrument candidate. It was warm and mostly dry with light and variable winds all the way to 6000 feet MSL. With a slight haze, we made our way toward Susin Bay for an LDA practice approach as the sun set over the Pacific. Outbound on the procedure turn was were I caught the first glimpse of the nearly full moon - an unbelievably large Mandarin orange crescent rising from behind the distant Sierra Nevada Mountains. Of course my student couldn't see this, being under what Hamish calls the cone of stupidity. So I did the decent thing and asked my student to look up. He took a few moments to appreciate the sight and, after the requisite oouuhaa, it was back to the salt mines. During the flight, the moon rose higher and higher, bathing the sleeping countryside in a soft, silver light.
The next night involved an hour in the traffic pattern at Oakland so my student pilot could log the necessary night landings. The tower controller was most accommodating, demonstrating light gun signals twice upon request. I usually point out a good landmark like the Hayward Civic Center to help pilots line up on downwind. Last night, the full moon rose from behind the Sunol Ridge and provided the best target imaginable. We did all the landings available on the menu - normal, short field, power off, and the always popular no-flaps landing without cockpit or landing lights.
Yesterday was a flight in the Cirrus to Reno, part of a warm up for the pilot who will be taking a trip over some mountainous terrain. We succeeded in getting the SR22 doors to latch and we were on our way, climbing to 9,500 feet for the trip over the Sierra Nevada. The winds aloft forecast called for 20 knot winds out of the south and as suspected, the ride turned decidedly bumpy as we passed over the Hangtown VOR at Placerville. I find it amusing that the VOR is actually called Hangtown, which was Placerville's infamous moniker during the mid-1800s gold rush, presumably because of the frequent dispensing of hanging as a form of justice.
This was the view as we slipped just northwest of Lake Tahoe.
We climbed to 11,500 feet and things smoothed out a bit, but the winds aloft were higher that what was forecast and pushed our ground speed to just under 200 knots. You can see that pesky ALT2 light is on, indicating it has failed. This has been a recurring problem and the shop just can't seem to get to the bottom of it.
The descent into Reno got bumpy, but close to the surface the winds were calm and the temperature a moderate 30 degrees Celsius. Approach gave us a right base entry to runway 16 left, which gave us time to slow down and descend. On the ground, I made a quick call home. Surprised to learn that I was in Reno, my wife mentioned that she felt lucky and encouraged me to find a slot machine. Alas, I couldn't find a single one-armed bandit in the FBO. So after a short stop for lunch and some very expensive fuel (which reduced the ramp and airport fee), we were on our way back.
With the midday sun shining through clear skies, the climb out of Reno was decidedly more bumpy that when we arrived. During the climb out, following I-80 through the pass, the VSI alternated between 200 feet per minute and 1200 feet per minute - a good indication of the updrafts and downdrafts we were flying through. Now fighting a 28 knot quartering head wind, our ground speed slowed to 145 knots and provided a nice opportunity to discuss strategies for recognizing and avoiding mountain waves as well as other way to maximize passenger comfort. One simple rule is to avoid flights over mountainous terrain when the winds aloft forecast exceed 25 knots. Another guideline is to avoid flying at midday and fly early in the morning or late in the day, when solar heating of the earth's surface is reduced.
We originally planned to cruise back at 10,500, but the ride was so rough we decided to climb to 12,500 for the brief 15 minute ride across the Sierra Nevada. At the pilot's request, we diverted south a bit and descended to get a view of a lake just to the east of Ice House Reservoir. I was surprised to see several aircraft below us appear as targets on the Cirrus' traffic watch. We did a few orbits around the lake, staying above 10,000', as much to avoid the other aircraft as to avoid the turbulence below.
Here's a view of the Sierra Nevada while we were gently banking.
One thing that didn't happen on the entire flight was the annoying terrain warnings I mentioned earlier. Why no "Terrain, pull up!" scoldings? I discovered that a Garmin 396 that was added to this plane as a backup system was actually wired into the audio panel. This fact came to light quite by accident. Seems the other partner in the aircraft was listening to the built-in XM radio on the trip before ours and I immediately heard music when the avionics switch was turned on. I had not realized that the 396 was connected to the audio panel. That's when it occurred to us that the aural terrain warnings must have been coming from the 396. So we turned it off and that simple solution provided a peaceful flight. An interesting lesson on the complicated interactions that are possible when different equipment is connected to the aircraft by different people.
Back at the home base, we were putting the aircraft back in the hangar when I heard what sounded like gunfire. I stuck my head out of the hangar door and saw an airport vehicle involved in bird hazing - trying to scare birds away by shooting firecracker-like ordinance in their direction. I have no idea what sort of equipment is used to do this hazing, but I could see a puff of smoke in the air each time I heard the report from a small explosion. I returned to helping get the plane secured and when I went back out of the hangar, I saw the unintended consequences of the bird hazing. Somehow one of the rounds being shot had sparked a grass fire. Luckily, this airport has fire fighting trucks on the field and the small blaze was quickly extinguished. Bet the birds were scared away, too.

Quite the eventful day! I have not seen the same ALT2 failures when flying Cirruses (Cirri?), however we've had ALT1 and MCU failures. Losing the MCU is particularly nasty from what I've been told.
I imagine it'll get even more interesting once the turbo version is available. More heat in that engine compartment means a harder life for those alternators...
- John said...
I hear that the problem with the electrical system's Master Control Unit is oil mist from the engine compartment getting on the circuit board. I even heard that there is a AD or a service bulletin (not sure which) that requires the MCU circuit board to be cleaned and given a new protective coating at every annual inspection.
A complete electrical system failure is sobering and makes the idea of a completely separate attitude indicator (vacuum or alkaline battery driven) look like a pretty good idea. A back-up hand-held GPS and comm radio isn't a bad idea, either.
- Tony - Glider CFI said...
Heating of the earths surface really doesnt affect mountain wave. The wave works day and night when the component of wind perpindicular to the drop off is above 20ish knots.
- John said...
I agree that mountain wave activity can occur day or night. Solar heating produces an additional set of problems with updrafts and downdrafts that can be uncomfortable and even dangerous to light aircraft. Uneven solar heating is the rule in mountainous terrain where one side of a ridge is exposed to the sun and the other basically shaded. Add a capping layer of stable air on top of the ridge and the result can be a real mix-master below the ridgeline.
To my mind, mountain waves and solar heating are two different mechanisms that can generate strong turbulence.

yep thats right john. sorry i thought you were implying that heating enhanced the wave. No doubt that thermals can cause anxiety. Especially out west were 1000 fpm thermals are not uncommon. Many glider pilots wont even take a tow out there if the thermals are not at least 500 fpm!

Watts Water and Our Lead Free Initiatives
For more than 135 years, the companies of Watts Water have provided products that are compliant with Federal and State mandates. The company's commitment to providing fully-compliant, high-quality products that meet the requirements of the new national Lead Free law is no different. Specifically, here is what Watts Water and its companies have done to ensure a smooth transition to Lead Free for all of its customers:
- Built a multi-million dollar state-of-the-art foundry designed to produce Lead Free products exclusively & eliminate the risk of cross contamination between leaded and Lead Free products
- Invested heavily & conducted extensive R&D in compliant Lead Free alloys
- Worked closely with the largest suppliers in the world to safeguard the quality of raw materials
- Made a significant investment in testing equipment for verifying the Lead Free content of both its own products and those from suppliers
- Continued a long-standing partnership with NSF International as the agency of choice for testing and certifying the Lead Free content of products
- Clearly identified Lead Free products through labels and other identifiers
- Provided a variety of educational resources and on-going industry updates
Investing in Lead Free Innovation
Watts Water is committed to helping its customers make the change to Lead Free as smooth as possible. To that end the company has made significant investments in several key areas. Here's just a sampling of the investments we've made to date:
- A new multimillion dollar foundry located adjacent to its existing foundry in Franklin, NH. Click here to learn more
- Testing equipment for verifying Lead Free product content
- 10 years' of research & development into new Lead Free alloys.
Click here to learn more
- Dedicated staff, employees, and resources across all departments
We continue to commit resources to the Lead Free initiative, and we will continue that investment until every one of our customers has made the transition.
Labeling and Identifying Lead Free* Products
This is a large, administrative product transition for Watts Water, impacting some 10,000 SKU's. Managing such a change in production/distribution will require skill, planning and communication.
Our brands are implementing new Lead Free* product labeling that will clearly identify our Lead Free* offering. Lead Free* will appear in big bold letters on all levels of product packaging. This is important to ensure end users that the products they are purchasing meet the new standards.
In addition, where both a traditional and Lead Free* version of a product exists, our brands are adding an "LF" prefix to the Lead Free* product's model number to easily identify it as Lead Free*. All product documentation including specification sheets, installation manuals, brochures and catalogs are also being updated to clearly identify Lead Free* products. Lastly, on many products we are adding an "LF" mark on the body of the product to signify that it is Lead Free*. This will allow for easy identification in the field or after installation.
Experience in Helping our Channels Go Lead Free*
We have gained valuable insight helping hundreds of customers during the Lead Free* transition across California, Vermont and Maryland. We supported them by continuously adapting our inventory planning and logistics to help them adapt to changes in their market.
Our network of manufacturer's representatives across the country are very knowledgeable in the business. They are ready to serve you in this transition and ensure you have the information you need for success.
Experience in Adopting Leading Technology
In 2009, Watts Water Technologies, Inc. launched its website WeAreLeadFree.net, the first dedicated resource for educating, informing and transitioning distributors, engineers and plumbing professionals in the country to Lead Free*. The site went live early in 2009, leading the industry by nearly a year before California's Lead Free* law went into effect. To date, we've had over 60,000+ people come to our site and start their transition to Lead Free*.

The Kenansville community in Duplin County is coming together to help a family pay medical bills for a baby girl with brain cancer.
Kenansville has a small population of 869 people, but before noon Friday, they had sold out of 7500 plates and through 60 hogs for the pig pickin' fundraiser. Tens of thousands of dollars were raised in a silent auction as well.
"It breaks my heart, but the family is so strong it has brought our community together. How they're handling it and all the love that is going out is just amazing, its just wonderful," said family friend Sally Heath tearfully.
Baby Layla had her latest MRI on Monday and her tumor has grown, but she is responding well to chemotherapy. She is now having chemo once a week.

Camarillo Springs Fire Moves Closer To Full Containment
Posted May. 6, 2013, 9:24 am
Brenton Garen / Editor-in-Chief
The Camarillo Springs fire in Ventura County is now 80 percent contained with full containment now expected on Tuesday, according to Cal Fire.
All evacuations and road closures have been lifted resulting in the Red Cross closing all evacuation centers.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
There are 1,055 firefighters helping contain the fire from 62 engines (25 Cal Fire) and 33 fire crews (27 Cal Fire). There are also 10 watertenders and a dozer helping with the efforts.
About 28,000 acres have burned since the fire began last week.
At its peak, the fire threatened some 4,000 homes as it moved through neighborhoods of Camarillo Springs and Thousand Oaks. It has caused damage to 15 homes.

Reality TV (Dec. 1, 2011; Feb. 8-11, 2012)
full name / name of organization:
Southwest/Texas Popular Culture and American Culture Association
contact email:
The Southwest/Texas Popular Culture and American Culture Association will hold its 33nd Annual Conference in Albuquerque, NM on February 8-11, 2012. Proposals are now being accepted for panels on Reality TV.
Over the past decade, the global proliferation of reality TV programming has exploded. It is hard to flip through television stations at any given hour of the day without coming across some sort of reality programming that is reflecting another niche in the ever-evolving cultural landscape of the modern world. At the moment, reality TV is a field of study that has enormous potential because it touches such a wide range of subjects—from media studies to business, regional studies to education, social sciences to the humanities.
The SW/TX PCA/ACA Area of Reality TV welcomes presentations from established scholars as well as students at this year's conference that will explore the place of reality TV in modern culture from many angles, including but not limited to the following:
• Motivations for shows' participants: fantasy fulfillment, lifestyle change, fame?
This list of ideas is limited, so if you have an idea that is not listed, please suggest the new topic. If you have an idea, but you are not sure whether your topic fits, just ask. Again, this field has room for a broad range of perspectives.
Each individual paper presentation should be designed to last approximately fifteen minutes (there will be four presentations per session with time for Q&A). By December 1, 2011, please send an abstract of 100-300 words or a completed paper to Reality TV Area Chair, Josh Grant (firstname.lastname@example.com). At the top of your proposal, please include the title of the paper and contact information (your name, affiliation, mailing address, and e-mail address). Along with the abstract and contact information, also include a CV or a 50-word bio. If you wish to make a complete panel submission (four presenters), the organizer of the panel should submit all of the above information for each panelist as well as a title for the panel.
Details regarding the conference (listing of all areas, hotel, registration, audio/visual support, tours, etc.) can be found at http://swtxpca.org/ .
Send any questions to Josh Grant at this address

Contractions get more painful as labor progresses... So at first they arent going to be very painful... Is your belly getting tight? (feel it). You have to remember its just an ESTIMATED due date, it could be wrong (drs arent ALWAYS RIGHT) and your baby could just not be ready quite yet... Your baby and body will tell you when its time and theyre ready, trust me :)posted 03/13/2010 by xxkursedkissxx
I may not be helping either, but I had a few questions myself, I just 39 weeks 1 day. Had an apt. Today. Everything seemed to be fine, although my doctor didn't check my abdomen or cervix, by the way I'm expecting my 2nd baby (its a boy) first one was a baby girl born at 38 weeks. I just had a "bloody show", no contractions just lower back pain. I'm not sure what contractions feel like, please help out! They say females know when the time is here, but can I get some help please!!!posted 01/24/2012 by sujeysolismoreno

PITTSBURGH – No one knows for certain whether the San Jose Sharks, who remain in the playoff hunt, will be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline next month.
Or whether they will be willing to part with either Dan Boyle or soon-to-be free agent Douglas Murray. Both are integral parts of their defense.
If, however, the Sharks are willing to trade the 36-year-old Boyle, who has a year left on his six-year, $40 million contract with a whopping $6.6 million cap hit, the Flyers have interest.
Provided the price tag to acquire him is reasonable, according to an NHL source.
Boyle has a limited no-trade clause, which means there are eight teams in which Boyle would approve to be dealt to.
As CSNPhilly.com reported on Saturday, both Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren and hockey operations director Chris Pryor, were scouting the Sharks in Minnesota this weekend and are interested in 5-foot-10 Boyle beyond this season.
The Flyers' brass was also there for the WCHA Tournament.
Though he's not the same player he was when he won the Stanley Cup with Tampa Bay in 2004, Boyle is a mobile defenseman who can move the puck, and would be an instant upgrade to the Flyers' struggling defense.
It all depends whether the Flyers decide to buy or sell at the deadline. Right now, much like the Sharks, they're not a strong favorite to make the playoffs.
Club sources say if any moves are made it will be in the organization's interests beyond just this season.

Silver Goldfish?
Has anyone heard of attempts to breed a type of goldfish that is silver in color? Have been musing about it, researching, and asking around. It used to exsist way back when the Japanese began breeding goldfish and koi, but they only liked the the gold ones...so they didn't encourage the silver colored ones. There are silver colored koi though.
But the almost silver goldfish seem to exist, not Quite silver, but pale goldy/silver. And they're in the feeder bin. Not the best place to get good quility fish.
Would want to create new type that is true silver and reproduces silver consistantly if possible.
Any information, links or comments would be greatly appreciated.
- Atlantis Child
Goldfish are actually carp.The name goldfish was given to them by aquarium sales folk to make them sound more appealing to the customer.
Silver is their orginal coloration.In the wild carp are usually pale gold to silver.The feeder you speak of are silver comets and can be raised to be quite large.Ive seen a few that have been raised from feeders.You can medicate feeders to rid them of any parasites or disease.then they are fine to raise as pets.

Q: How do you choose which pictures you want to scrap/print?
My answer... When I am going through the files to pick out which pictures to print, I choose 4-5 per page that "tell the story"...I try to pick out a close up, a couple far away, and possibly a few that have an artistic view or whatever (kind of hard to explain that)...Also I have printed a few that are blury...then once they are printed and i have them inhand, then thats when i choose which i put on the LO...just depends on my "mood". Usually I do 1 pic LO's but lately they've been 2-5 pics.

We often take our skin for granted, but if you've ever had an itchy rash or a boil, you know how painful even a small skin problem can be. About one-third of people with diabetes get a skin problem sooner or later. Fortunately, most problems can be prevented or easily treated. Here are three common problems and how to prevent them.
When blood glucose is high, your body loses fluid. Diabetic nerve damage can also decrease sweating. Both can lead to dry skin.
To prevent dry skin, manage your blood sugar and drink plenty of fluids. When bathing, avoid very hot water and use mild soap. Then, dry well and apply moisturizer, but not between the toes or in skin folds since excess moisture in these areas can lead to fungal infections. Try using a humidifier in your home during cold, dry weather.
Vaginal yeast infections, athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm show up as itchy, red rashes, sometimes with tiny blisters. Oftentimes, fungal infections can be caused by Candida albicans, a fungus that takes hold in warm, moist folds of skin.
To prevent fungal infections, keep your skin clean, and dry well after bathing. Sprinkle talcum powder in armpits, between toes, under breasts or in other places where skin touches skin. If you get a fungal infection, tell your health care provider. You may need prescription medication.
Sores that are red, swollen, and painful may be due to bacterial infections. Styes (an infected eyelid gland), boils, and folliculitis (an infected hair follicle) are common. A carbuncle is a deeper skin infection. Styes, boils, and carbuncles are commonly caused by Staphylococcus ("staph") bacteria.
To prevent bacterial infections, take care of dry skin and avoid scratching it. Scratching can crack the skin, allowing an infection to start. Inspect your feet every day, and clean and bandage sores and cuts. Keep blood sugar controlled so that you can better prevent a bacterial infection. Check your skin daily. If a problem doesn't go away, or you think you have an infection, see your health care provider right away.
