DAVIE, Fla. (AP) — Miami Dolphins rookie running back Daniel Thomas has been ruled out of Sunday's game at San Diego because of a hamstring injury.
Also ruled out Saturday were cornerback Vontae Davis, who will miss his second consecutive game with a hamstring injury, and linebacker Koa Misi, sidelined by a neck injury.
Thomas missed the season opener due to his injury and aggravated it this week. His absence likely means playing time for Steve Slaton, claimed off waivers Wednesday.
Slaton rushed for 1,282 yards as a rookie with Houston in 2008, but was less productive after injuring his neck in 2009 and was released this week by the Texans.

by Amish Patel - February 18, 2011
Mixed martial arts top organization, Ultimate Fighting Championship, put together a unique auction of UFC 127 which is set to take place February 27th at Acer Arena in Sydney, Australia.
In an effort to raise funds for the victims of Tropical Cyclose Yasi and the recent widespread flooding in Australia, the experience will include a two-night hotel stay, VIP tickets to the already sold out UFC 127 event sitting among Ryan Bader and Josh Koscheck, and walking into the cage with favorite fighters during the UFC 127 intro.
The auction winner will also recieve VIP seating at media events, backstage access during the event, autographed memorbalia, and much more.
Other auction items are set to include the UFC 127 octagon canvas, autographs from the likes of Jon Fitch, Michael Bisping, and Jorge Rivera on their shorts, shirts, and/or walk-out gear.
Bidding for this amazing auction is set to take place until March 1st at ufc.thegivingbridge.com
Additional contributions to the cause may be made at www.qld.gov.au/floods/donate.html
UFC 127 features a headliner between Fitch and B.J. Penn, and the winner gets a title shot. Rivera meets Bisping in the pay-per-view co-headliner, and Australian and contender George Sotiropoulos takes on fellow lightweight Dennis Siver.

Up front.img324, with story plus * by harrietsfriendWatch
©2014-2016 harrietsfriend
On my Sycamore Street Hill documentation of 1969, I took this photo of young adults.
For me a documentary image requires an "up front" approach, the subjects interact with me and know their picture is being taken. This allows an edginess to be shown and I feel makes a better, real and often dramatic photo, none of which would happen if taken from a distance.
There is another factor. Back then it would take a bit of time to focus, meter and frame an image, so you were in their face whether you wanted to or not. I chose to let this work for me and you can see in the expressions their reaction to me on their turf. This was inner city downtown Cincinnati, Ohio, USA in the late 60s, also a time of social and political unrest over race and Vietnam. We didn't feel we were poor, but we felt oppressed in some manner.
I have a series of photos in my gallery, Sycamore Street Hill, with others of these images. If you like this series, watch my site, as I continue to post more.
Taken with a Nikon F, with a 50mm F2.0 Nikkor, with hand held Weston meter, on Kodak Plus X film.
Feel free to download, just give me photo credit.

Gratulations. You deserve it.
THIS is classic.
THIS is classic.
What an expressive photograph, congrats on the DD!
This photo is so powerful.
i love these old photos.. i enjoyed watching and sharing the ones my family has.. priceless. your collection is timeless
WOW! I live near there!
As an interesting side note. Back in this time period, these homes were considered undesirable and were valued in the 5,000 to 30,000 dollar world. Now that the neighborhood has changed to gentry and desired for the great city views, the values have gone to 200,000 to a million dollars, sometimes just for a shell of a house to be redone.
Thats insane! The pricing increase significantly due to the cities views. I would have never guessed! Thank you for sharing! ^7^
Jamie foxx XDDDD
This is incredible, Congrats on the Daily Deviation!
congratulations on the Daily Deviation! Just stumbled upon this mesmerizing picture and I must say it's very captivating.
Great work!
Great work!
This is absolutely amazing, especially given the time and the different formats of cameras. This is so very neat. Congrats on the well-deserved DD.
Congrats on DD!
Great portraits
Hey congrats man...the whole series is worth equal praise
Congrats on the DD!
Have a nice day!
Have a nice day!
Congratulations on the Daily Deviation!
Looks just like pictures of my mom from that time. She was as stylish as these women. Nice sample of that time period; from what my parents tell me it was an exciting time.
Wow! I knew that it was the late sixties/early seventies from the styles in this photo before I even clicked on the thumbnail! It's funny because they look more surprised than hostile to see you in their neighborhood. I lived outside of Cincinnati in 1967-1968 but I was a toddler. My father worked in the city and told me a story of how he accompanied a coworker home to his neighborhood which was similar to this one for a party. This was before the riots and there was social unrest about race in this country and Vietnam, but it was still simmering under the surface and hadn't boiled over. Thanks for sharing this very interesting photo and sorry for my long ramble! Congratulations on your DD!
wow, what a great photograph for that year, it's very crisp and clear. my dad was 14 and my mom was 9 at that time.
Congrats on the DD, Eugene. It's a superb photo.
That is an impressive photograph...^^
This is a beautiful photo. A great time piece and very expressive.
thank you, but in the world of art, this and $5.00 will get you a cup of coffee, not delivered.
good thing I don't do coffee.
I adore the girl on the left, posing like a little Napoleon. She reminds me of, (well, I'm dating myself here) Dee from What's Happening. 'Ooohh I'm gonna tell mama!!' I think their caught-in-the-act expressions are great.
I know what you mean. To me she is Al Bundy from Married with children. I toyed with removing her from the photo, but as she was part of the group I kept her in, what with me being a documentarist.
Congrats on the well deserved DD. Nice candid street portraiture!
fantastic capture
congratulations to the well deserved Daily Deviation
Wow what a wonderful time peace and so well presented.
great shot, really love it!
Fantastic photo! Thanks for digging it up!
Your street shots are something special, Eugene. I also love the explanations you give to them. Compliment!
It was a different world back then. I was 14 in 1969! Great shot!
I turned 19 that year. What a time it was.

Team Wiggins to ride at Tour de Yorkshire
Live updates
Doctor: Bradley Wiggins 'needs to rest' injured knee
Sky team doctor Richard Freeman said Bradley Wiggins could not compete in the Tour de France because he needs time to recover from a knee injury:
The chest infection that caused his withdrawal from the Giro has responded to treatment and rest. It has completely cleared up.
However, further medical investigations on the knee injury that we were managing at the Giro showed the condition was more significant than we thought. It's needed intensive treatment and, whilst it will be fully resolved,
Bradley now needs to rest completely for five days before a gradual, return to full training over a period of two to three weeks."
Team Sky 'can't consider Wiggins for selection'
Bradley Wiggins' team principal, Sir Dave Brailsford of Team Sky, said the Tour de France champion would not be considered for selection due to his injury problems:
With illness, injury and treatment Brad has gone past the point where he can be ready for the Tour. It's a big loss but, given these circumstances, we won't consider him for selection.
He hasn't been able to train hard since the Giro and now he needs further rest. Whilst we all know these things happen in sport, it doesn't take away from the fact that this is a huge disappointment for everyone in the team – and above all for Brad.
It's incredibly sad to have the reigning champion at Team Sky but not lining up at the Tour. But he's a champion, a formidable athlete and will come back winning as he has before.
Wiggins: 'Huge disappointment' to miss Tour
Sir Bradley Wiggins said he was forced to pull out of this summer's Tour de France because he had not been able to train due to injury:
It's a huge disappointment not to make the Tour. I desperately wanted be there, for the team and for all the fans along the way - but It's not going to happen. I can't train the way I need to train and I'm not going to be ready.
Once you accept that, it's almost a relief not having to worry about the injury and the race against time.
I've been through this before, when I broke my collarbone, so I know how it works. I'll get this sorted, set new goals for this season and focus on those.
This team has so many riders in great shape, ready for selection and we set incredible standards for performance which shouldn't be compromised. We need to have the best chance to win.
Bradley Wiggins ruled out of Tour de France
Defending champion Bradley Wiggins has been ruled out of this year's Tour de France due to injury.
Bradley Wiggins second on third stage of Giro d'Italia
Bradley Wiggins has come second on third stage of Giro d'Italia.
The results are:
- (1) Luca Paolini (Italy / Katusha) 9:04:32"
- (2) Bradley Wiggins (Britain / Team Sky) +17"
- (3) Rigoberto Uran (Colombia / Team Sky)
- (4) Benat Intxausti (Spain / Movistar) +26"
- (5) Vincenzo Nibali (Italy / Astana)
Froome to lead Team Sky's Tour de France charge
Chris Froome will lead Team Sky's charge at this year's Tour de France, team principal Sir Dave Brailsford said.
Froome played a vital role in helping Sir Bradley Wiggins claim victory in the 2012 Tour, finishing second overall himself but Team Sky stated back in January that the 2013 campaign would be built around Froome, with Wiggins in support.
Brailsford told www.teamsky.com : "As always the team selection is a management decision and it will be evidence-based.
"However it is crucial there is clarity of purpose and for that reason we will go to the Tour with one leader.
"Taking that into consideration and given Chris' step up in performances this year, our plan, as it has been since January is to have him lead the Tour de France team."

Who needs guns that spray rounds?Published 10:27am Monday, December 31, 2012
What will it take for the NRA and all gun-loving Americans to finally agree that the ordinary citizen does not need a semi-automatic rifle? These weapons are for killing people, they're not for hunting.
How many more of our children have to die before we wake up and take these guns off the market? I don't like guns and won't pretend to for this discussion. Everytime someone talks about taking semiautomatic weapons off the market, people run to the gun stores to buy a gun. No one is talking about stopping gun sales; we just want the automatic weapons off the market and out of the hands of everyone but military or law enforcement.
When you think about the damage that was done to these children in Connecticut with an AR-15 as compared to a handgun, it ought to make you sick. The children and adults didn't have a chance with someone spraying bullets at them. It's time we start thinking about our children, our neighbors and our own safety before we start realizing we don't need these semiautomatic or automatic weapons.
Let's get rid of these particular weapons and stop pretending someone is trying to take away your rights to own a gun. No one is trying to take away your rights, we just want to make our lives a little safer by saying no to these type of weapons. What's wrong with that?

Organophosphorus Pesticide Exposure of Urban and Suburban Preschool Children with Organic and Conventional Diets. (Children's Health)
Curl, Cynthia L., Fenske, Richard A., Elgethun, Kai, Environmental Health Perspectives
We assessed organophosphorus (OP) pesticide exposure from diet by biological monitoring among Seattle, Washington, preschool children. Parents kept food diaries for 3 days before urine collection, and they distinguished organic and conventional foods based on label information. Children were then classified as having consumed either organic or conventional diets based on analysis of the diary data. Residential pesticide use was also recorded for each home. We collected 24-hr urine samples from 18 children with organic diets and 21 children with conventional diets and analyzed them for five OP pesticide metabolites. We found significantly higher median concentrations of total dimethyl alkylphosphate metabolites than total diethyl alkylphosphate metabolites (0.06 and 0.02 [micro]mol/L, respectively; p = 0.0001). The median total dimethyl metabolite concentration was approximately six times higher for children with conventional diets than for children with organic diets (0.17 and 0.03 [micro]mol/L; p = 0.0003); mean concentrations differed by a factor of nine (0.34 and 0.04 [micro]mol/L). We calculated dose estimates from urinary dimethyl metabolites and from agricultural pesticide use data, assuming that all exposure came from a single pesticide. The dose estimates suggest that consumption of organic fruits, vegetables, and juice can reduce children's exposure levels from above to below the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's current guidelines, thereby shifting exposures from a range of uncertain risk to a range of negligible risk. Consumption of organic produce appears to provide a relatively simple way for parents to reduce their children's exposure to OP pesticides. Key words: biological monitoring, dialkylphosphates, diet, organic, organophosphorus pesticides, preschool children, produce. Environ Health Perspect 111:377-382 (2003). doi:10.1289/ehp.5754 available via http://dx.doi.org/ [Online 31 October 2002]
Reduction of children's risk from pesticides requires an understanding of the pathways by which exposure occurs. Aggregate exposure models that integrate all exposure pathways have been developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) since passage of the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA; 1996). Such models require an understanding of each source, exposure pathway, and exposure route, and they aim, in part, to identify the pathways and routes that are the most significant contributors to children's overall pesticide dose.
Dietary ingestion is one of the pathways by which children are exposed to pesticides (Akland et al. 2000; Berry 1997; ILSI 1999; Thomas et al. 1997). Children eat more food per body mass than adults, and their diets differ from those of adults. These diets are often rich in foods containing higher levels of pesticide residues, such as juices, fresh fruits, and fresh vegetables (National Research Council 1993). Several national programs monitor pesticide levels in the food supply (FDA 1996; USDA 1997), and at least two studies have examined pesticide levels in duplicate diets of children (Fenske et al. 2002; Melnyk et al. 1997). Recent work has indicated that children's diets may contain pesticides at levels above the acute population-adjusted reference dose (Fenske et al. 2002).
Consumption of foods grown organically is often perceived to reduce risk by reducing exposure to pesticide residues (Williams and Hammit 2001). Organic produce is grown without the use of many synthetic agricultural products, including most conventional pesticides (USDA 2001). A recent study of 110 urban and suburban children found measurable levels of organophosphorus (OP) pesticide metabolites in the urine of all children sampled, except for one child whose parents reported buying exclusively organic produce (Lu et al. 2001).

If you're a parent, then you are likely interested in finding ways to interact with your child or children that create a strong relationship, foster positive behavior, and respond to behavioral problems.
Take a look at any bookstore and the shelves will be full of advice. But figuring out which strategies are actually effective can be a challenge.
In this month's American Psychological Association's Monitor on Psychology, Amy Novotney asks leaders in child psychology about the best parenting strategies. Her quest was not for someone's idea of the best way to parent, but for strategies backed by research studies showing their effectiveness in improving behavior, strengthening the bond between parents and children, and reacting to behavioral problems that arise.
The following seven empirically tested parenting strategies were the result.

Arts Council to hold informational meeting about grants program Sept. 20Tue, 09/17/2013 - 10:18am
Are you an artist living in the Arrowhead Region, seeking funding to move your career to the next level? Does your regional arts nonprofit need operating support, or funding for a project? If so, plan to attend a meeting of the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council on Sept. 20 from 4 to 6 p.m. at Grand Marais Art Colony.
Samuel Black, assistant director of the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council (ARAC), will discuss important changes to three ARAC grants: Career Development (individual artists); Two-Year Operating (arts nonprofits); and Rural/Community (arts nonprofits).
Included in this discussion will be ARAC's new grant deadline structure, the new shape of the narrative questions (to reflect criteria), other changes to multiple ARAC programs, and using the Grant Lifecycle Manager (GLM) as an application format. All questions will be answered!
Individual artists are advised that McKnight/ACHF/ARAC Career Development Grants support and assist regional artists from all cultural backgrounds at various stages in their careers. This program encourages artistic development by assisting artists to take advantage of specific opportunities and to nurture artistic creativity through self-generated proposals. This program is also designed to allow artists the time to work to achieve specific career goals by purchasing supplies and materials, participating in advanced study not related to a degree program, or pursuing other activities that will allow them to meet their artistic goals.
Opponents continue quest to eliminate rumble stripsMon, 09/16/2013 - 1:50pm
East End residents are not happy about the new rumble strips recently installed by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) on Highway 61 between Grand Marais and the Canadian border. On September 10, citizens were on hand to speak to the county commissioners personally about the matter during the public comment portion of the county board meeting.
Citizens were informed that the county board supported their opposition with a letter to Minnesota Transportation Commissioner Charles Zelle written September 4, 2013.
Bob Carter thanked the board for the letter but asked for a resolution decrying the rumble strips. "For those of us who live there and hear them every day, day and night, they're intolerable," he said.
Carter said people who live as far as two miles from the highway can hear them. He said he had heard from over 60 people who are bothered by them.
Commissioner Garry Gamble said when they presented the letter to the transportation commissioner the commissioner listened and seemed responsive.
Gamble acknowledged that there are a lot of deaths on Highway 61 and said they want to protect public safety but also reduce the noise.
"We're not opposed to public safety," said Carter. He said people who move up here know the highway is there and are prepared for traffic noise. "There's a huge difference between the sound of traffic and rumble strips," he said.
The letter to the transportation commissioner states "While the safety goal is one we support, the Cook County Board of Commissioners and many, many residents along Highway 61 have concerns about the negative impacts resulting from the length and location of these recently installed centerline rumble strips."
Great fall trips plannedMon, 09/16/2013 - 1:49pm
There are some great fall trips coming up for the Cook County Senior Center in September with a Grand Portage Casino Express on Tuesday September 24. Transportation is free for those that sign up by registration date and board at the Senior Center.

Gunflint guide's body recoveredMon, 09/16/2013 - 5:32am
Divers recovered the body of a longtime Gunflint Lodge fishing guide on Sunday, three days after he was thrown into the waters of an Ontario lake after a boating accident.
According to the Duluth News Tribune, Bruce Kerfoot, co-owner of the lodge said provincial police told him that divers found the body of Dennis Todd, 59, at about 1:30 p.m. in Northern Light Lake in 46 feet of water.
Todd, who had been a guide at Gunflint Lodge for 25 years, had been out fishing on the lake with a new lodge employee on Thursday. The woman told officials that she and Todd were on their way back to the lodge when their boat struck something in the water in Trafalgar Bay. The two were thrown into the water and Todd, who was not wearing a life jacket, did not resurface. The woman, who was wearing a life jacket, was able to swim to an island, signal another angler and then alert authorities.
Northern Light Lake is in Ontario, a short portage from Saganaga Lake near the end of the Gunflint Trail.
A search team using side-scan sonar quickly found Todd's body Sunday about 50 feet from where the woman thought he went into the water, Kerfoot said. Todd's body was taken to Thunder Bay for a standard postmortem examination.

Photographs of David DeGree at Cross River Heritage CenterSun, 09/15/2013 - 12:12am
The photographs of Dave DeGree will be featured until the end of the month at the Cross River Heritage Center. DeGree has been a photographer all his life. His favorite subject is northern Minnesota, and particularly the North Shore of Lake Superior. "I especially enjoy photographing those areas adjacent to Lake Superior," he said. "Big waves, powerful waterfalls and delicate wildflowers are all to be found nearby. It is a great place to view through the camera's lens."
DeGree, a retired executive for a St. Paul graphics firm, lives near Little Marais and says that selling photographs is not his goal. "Rather, I wish to raise the awareness of those who come to the North Shore about the spectacular sights that are all around them here," he said. DeGree has spent more than 40 years photographing North Shore venues.
The Cross River Heritage Center is located near mile marker 79 in Schroeder. Call (218) 663-7706 or see www.davedegreeohoto.com for more information.

Skip to comments.Matthews: Cheney 'Bath-Tub Ring' Of Bush Administration
Posted on 12/21/2009 5:27:11 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest
Bear this one in mind next time you hear a liberal bemoaning that conservatives show insufficient respect for Pres. Obama and VP Biden . . .
On this evening's Hardball, Chris Matthews called Dick Cheney "the bath-tub ring of the Bush administration."
Chris' calumny came in reaction to the news that the estimable Human Events magazine has named the former VP 'Conservative of the Year'.
View video here.
(Excerpt) Read more at newsbusters.org ...
Your engine started or money cheerfully refunded ping to Today show list.
Matthews is the pee on the toilet seat.
Matthews, the skid mark of journalism.
then Chrissy Matthews is the $h!tstain on the panties of PMSNBC...
The great intellectual of MSNBC, and he sounds like a grade school kid trying to insult a classmate on the playground.
That is pretty funny you have to concede...
Matthews is the skidmark on the speedo that is the MSM
Even though I KNOW why,
It STILL astounds me when these guys get away with this kind of thing. (sigh)
Matthews: The brown ring on the TP.
Chris Matthews: Making gutter snipes look good.
Message to Matthews the Moron: Hey Spittleboy, Dick Chenney isn't the VP anymore you stupid putz!
Chris Matthews is the brown smear on the underpants of America.
Mathews, the dingleberry hanging from Obama's butt.
LOLOLOL! That's so much worse than a bathtub ring.
Yea, even though Chrissy is a big fat liberal loser, this term made me chuckle. Gotta give him points for originality, I guess.
Chris Matthews: America's skid mark
LOL. I can't remember if this came before or after he deplored the lack of civility in today's senatorial politics.
And he wasn't talking about Sheldon Whitehouse (what chance did the guy have with a name like that anyway) calling opponents of this government grab of a sixth of the economy and just about every bit of your life some of the most horrible things I've ever heard.
Missy Chrissy is throwing stink bombs trying to up his pathetic ratings.... Comcast is his new boss and will be pruning the dead wood... And that means you Missy Chrissy
LOL...these people are so immature . . .just when you think they couldn't get any more childish
Matthews is a hemorrhoid on Obama's rear.
Bathtub?....naked?...What has Chrissy been thinking about???
Matthews is the brown stain on his mother depends.
Chrissie is the anal orifice of cable television
You mean... little Chrissy, the tiny little turd/POS that just can't (or won't) disengage itself from Zero's rear end.
Yeah. That sounds about right.
time to flush Cwissy, Comcast!
This coming from a human skidmark.
Hey Matthews, the best part of you was lost as a tingle down your fathers leg
We won't say what Matthews is but it's found at the bottom of a non flushed toilet.
Someone should bitch slap Matthews.
Not many know this, so keep it to yourself, but Matthews gives the White House staff their bi-weekly anus bleachings. He shows up at the west gate with a bottle of Clorox in a grocery sack and a Walmart sack full of washcloths every other Thursday.
and little chrisy is the asshole of TV
The barfbag of MSLSD.
The colostomy bag of the Democratic party.
This could be fun.........
Well then I suppose that would make Algore and "Stand up Chuck" Biden the scrapings left in the tank after the septic is pumped.

For The Engineer
Better Quality and Consistency: Cold
Forming/Forging is a purely mechanical process that forms metal into net or near
net shapes, but unlike traditional alternatives, it is performed at room
temperature without using additional heat, providing more precise tolerances and
part to part consistency than any other method.
Whitesell Cold Forming/Forging provides
- Higher Strength: Cold forming work hardens the material raising its yield
stress, making it significantly stronger than can be produced through other
methods. With these higher strength properties, component design thickness can
often be reduced offering further savings on weight, material and clearance.
- Higher yields for exceptional strength
- Most precise tolerances available
- Improved physical properties by refining grain structure
- Exceptional surface finish no scale
- Part-to-part uniformity/repeatability
- Better functional reliability

Pros: I am not a small laptop fan, My other laptops have been a MX15 by Alienware and Asus J73 (17"), but this little dell is great and by far a better everyday computer. Pick it up take it anywhere and start it up in just a few seconds.
Cons: My only issue is the integrated RAM. Why would they do this? If not for this idiotic move I would have giving it 5 eggs!
Other Thoughts: The I5 1.6ghz on this pc goes the distance. Would have loved better graphics but it does about 200fps on video card stability test so that's pretty good.

Lunch in Technicolor: Mashinging up two of the tastiest items the city has to offer: a Salumi sandwich, a Top Pot Doughnut.
"If you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and then make a change."
-- Michael Jackson, "Man in the Mirror"
You know who you are, and I wanna talk about what happened.
Let me start by saying that I understand you didn't know what you were doing. This was your first trip to Salumi, and probably your first meal in public for years. So, what you did was excusable, because we all have to be taught how to behave as members of a society. I said nothing at the time because a) I'm a big pussy; and b) I didn't want to interfere with the other customers' bliss, the way you attempted to defecate on mine.
A meal at Salumi is an occasion. It's not open very often and lines are typically painfully long. But, the satisfaction of chomping into one of Batali's best is worth every day of curing, every minute spent in line, and every one of the ten dollars it cost. But, this is all new for you. You wandered in behind my party of three, saw a short line, and figured this was just another sandwich shop you'd read about in Seattle Met.
We all have to wait for our sandwich, and wait a couple more minutes to pay. We all would like to sit in the small dining area and enjoy our score. But, this isn't the high school cafeteria. I wish I didn't have to remind you.We all our had our sandwiches in our hands. Perhaps you noticed that after the folks ahead of me paid, they took their seats with smiles on their faces. Then it became my turn to pay for the three of us. There were four chairs left, and just before I paid, I looked at my two companions and said, "Looks like we'll be able sit and eat here."
It was at that moment that you committed an unforgivable sin. It was at that moment that you crossed a line. It was at that moment that you embarrassed the other Obama voters simply by association. Instead of waiting for me to pay, and for the three of us to take our seats, you did the unthinkable: you left one member of your party in line to pay, and sent two others to claim three of the remaining four chairs. You spit in my face, yesterday. You spit in Batali's face. You spit in Barack's face.
And as we took our sandwiches to go and searched for a table on a rainy Thursday afternoon. I thought you'd rued the day. But, you don't have that kind of power, do you. You see, when you closed one door, the heavens opened up a window to the Starbucks down the street.
Oh, you snicker, do you? I'm sure you wouldn't be caught dead inside a Starbucks, what with their delicious Pike Place Blend and unforgivably comfortable armchairs.
We took our seats, enjoyed our divine sandwiches and each others' company. And as a nod to the three of you, I doubled down and ordered an old fashioned Top Pot.
While you were feeding your smug little faces, we were comfortable and cheerful, enjoying perhaps the two most delicious items on the city's collective menu.
I hope you enjoyed your lunch. I know I did.

Artist: Mates of State
This photo is the cover of the record. Why are they doing that thing with their lips? I don't know.
Album:Crushes (The Covers Mixtape)
Label: Self-released
Release date: June 15
Rating (Skip, Stream, or Buy): Skip
Download: "Laura"
Covers records are risky and therefore largely hit-or-miss - Cat Power's The Covers Record is inoffensive, but a little boring; Sun Kil Moon's Tiny Cities brilliantly re-imagined Modest Mouse's sound; Johnny Cash's American IV: The Man Comes Around gave a reverential intimacy to Nine Inch Nails and Depeche Mode. Now we have Mates of States' Crushes (The Covers Mixtape), which is neither inspired nor innovative.
The opening track, a cover of the mopey San Francisco band Girls' "Laura," is a fun listen, peppy and soaring, but eventually the record just gets too rah-rah (as will happen with MOS). "Son et Lumiere" is a mess, losing all the intensity of the Mars Volta original, and I really don't think Tom Waits would appreciate the repetitive "yeah-yeah-yeah-yeahs" they've added to "Long Way Home," a formerly-poignant, soulful song that wanders dangerously close to Miley Cyrus territory here.
The worst is when the songs just start to sound robotic. When Lindsey Buckingham first sang the line, "one thing I think you should know/ I ain't gonna miss you when you go" on "Secondhand News," he did it with a joyous kind of disdain - here it comes off as rote and unemotional. Reimagining favorites and lost gems can be inspired, but what Mates of State has done is reduce a decent group of originals into a plastic pop singalongs.

The most amazing girl you will ever meet. She has HUGE boobs, and utterly gorgeous eyes. She has long legs. She can make anyone feel good when they are feeling down, she is very smart, and she has a great sense of humour. She can out- comeback any bitch coming her way. She never loses any argument. She has alot of friends, & she is a great friend to all of them. If you meet a girl called Kele, don't get on the wrong side of her, she will make your life a living hell. Instead, try to be friends with her, she will DEFINITELY be nice <3
Oh you're so nice, just like Kele.

TOKYO (Reuters) - The parents of a Japanese girl who was abducted by North Korea more than three decades ago met their child's daughter for the first time last week, Japan's Foreign Ministry said on Sunday.
North Korea admitted in 2002 that it had kidnapped 13 Japanese nationals in the 1970s and 1980s to help train spies and said eight of them had died, including Megumi Yokota, who was abducted in 1977 on her way home from school at the age of 13.
The Foreign Ministry said Yokota's parents spent several days with their 26-year old granddaughter, Kim Eun Gyong, in the Mongolian capital of Ulan Bator, a venue Japanese and North Korean officials often use for unofficial contacts.
Kim's father was a South Korean man who was also abducted to North Korea.
Japan has never accepted North Korea's explanation of Megumi Yokota's death, as bones North Korea said were Yokota's were found to be those of a man after DNA testing.
Japan suspects there are more abduction cases that North Korea has not revealed and the issue has been a major obstacle to normalising relations between them.
Japan has demanded more information about abductees while North Korea has said the case is closed.
Japan's Kyodo news agency said the Foreign Ministry "embraced the meeting as a positive development and plans to seek the reopening of intergovernmental talks" between Japan and North Korea.
Officials from the Japanese and North Korean affiliates of the Red Cross held talks this month on the return of the remains of Japanese nationals from North Korea.
Formal talks between Japan and North Korea have been suspended since North Korea launched a rocket which it said put a weather satellite into orbit in December 2012.
The United States, South Korea and Japan said they saw the launch as a test of technology that could one day deliver a nuclear warhead capable of hitting targets as far away as the continental United States.

Hey guys,
I am having major issues with wordpress 2.3, Apache/1.3.33 and permalinks on Mac OSX Tiger.
I have read the permalinks codex a 1000 times.
First a bit of other information:
I am running my own apache server. Here is the Virtual Host Setup:
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName sap.dev
documentRoot /Users/leevigraham/Sites/Clients/0165_summit_prevention_alliance/
<Directory "Users/leevigraham/Sites/Clients/0165_summit_prevention_alliance/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
I cannot get pretty permalinks domain.com/about or nearly pretty permalinks working domain.com/index.php/about.
I have checked the .htaccess file:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
and that also looks fine.
I also have an Expression Engine site running on the same server that successfully uses mod_rewrite.
In apache my loaded modules include mod_rewrite
Loaded Modules mod_php5, mod_bonjour, mod_hfs_apple, mod_setenvif, mod_so, mod_log_forensic, mod_auth, mod_access, mod_rewrite, mod_alias, mod_userdir, mod_actions, mod_imap, mod_asis, mod_cgi, mod_dir, mod_autoindex, mod_include, mod_negotiation, mod_mime, mod_log_config, http_core
Does anyone have any ideas what might be the problem?

Electrofishing Principles and Safety
Electrofishing is an important, commonly used tool for biologists to collect a range of fishery data such as species composition, population estimates, and growth rates. Improper techniques, however, can bias results and be injurious, or even lethal, to humans and the fish they capture. Modern equipment and proper training can improve safety and data collection.
Course Objectives
Attendees will receive an introduction to the principles of electricity applied to capture of fish, as well as:
- How to use different kinds of equipment.
- How to work in a variety of environments.
- How to work with a variety of target species, or in different life stages.
- Operation and safety, including dangers to humans and fish.
- Electrofishing techniques as they apply to bioassessments, fisheries characterizations, population estimates, or age and growth studies.
Course Format
Day One
Day One will be an eight-hour classroom setting, with instruction focused on the following topics:
- Electrical Theory: what is electricity, how it works in water, and application to capture of fish.
- Electrofishing Equipment: describing the types of equipment available for different sampling environments, species, and purposes.
- Operation and Safety: including dangers of electricity, proper accessories, such as clothing, gloves, fish holding and handling.
- Applied Electrofishing Methods: including equipment selection, use and settings; and, experimental design and techniques for various applications such as population estimates, fish characterizations, etc.
Day Two
Day Two will be a field trip, with backpack electrofishing gear, to a local stream. Fieldwork will be conducted in two groups of up to six students. Each group will spend approximately four hours in the field, including travel. This portion of the class will provide the students hands on familiarity with equipment operation and an opportunity to apply the information learned in the classroom on the previous day.
The course will be taught by a member of Smith-Root's biology department.
Attendance is limited to twelve participants per field day, unless prior arrangements are made for Smith-Root to provide more than one instructor. If the course is provided at your location, we require a classroom with sufficient capacity to seat all participants, with an overhead projection screen for a power-point presentation. We will also need access to, and a valid collection permit for, a nearby stream or lake where attendees can participate in safe equipment operation and fish collection techniques.
When taught at our headquarters, a variety of electrofishing equipment would be used for the field portion. When traveling to your location, however, we can provide only backpack electrofishing equipment. Any additional equipment supplied by a host must be fully functioning and meet our safety criteria.
We require attendees or host organizations to provide chest waders and insulated lineman's electrical gloves. Optional equipment include a brimmed hat, polarized sunglasses, and lifejackets.
Phone: 1-360-573-0202 email@example.com
Course Cost
$350 per attendee or free with purchase of any new Smith-Root backpack electrofisher.

He smiles and says "yeah I saw you, you started tapping the chair"
I instantly feel sadness bc he does this all the time. I am invisible. I ask him a question and he ignores me. I say a statement and I have to ask if he heard me bc he doesn't so much as look up or nod to acknowledge me.
I've told him it bothers me but he doesn't seem to care.
Oh and if the tv is on nothing else in the world exists. He could be on fire and not notice.

Today was our district championship age graded crit. I was a non descript missed the break 7th place. After it was over, I heard someone official sounding shouting my number and pointing at me. I wondered what I could have done wrong when he told me I had to report to doping control as first, second, and seventh from our race were selected for testing. Since I didn't really know I was seventh, it confirmed my placing.
I was escorted to the control area where they asked for my id. Since I was in a skin suit and my car was a mile or so away, my id was a good distance off. My escort wasn't too keen on the distance so just took a photo of me with my name written on a piece of paper, mug shot style.
There was a bunch of paper work to establish my name, address, doctor, coach, prescription s and otc drugs ive taken, then I had to give a urine specimen with my usada escort watching. Trying to pee after a crit was a challenge.
It was honestly nerve wracking. I know I'm clean, but had to declare a number of allergy and asthma meds I'm prescribed to take. The process for getting results is 10 weeks.
It took about an hour to complete, some of it due to how long it took to provide a specimen but most of it due to paperwork. It's pretty neat to have insight on the process now.

Does anyone know of a simple way to change the intro with Professor Oak such that instead of being asked for the Rival's name and being asked if I'm sure and then showing the textbox after that where it says, "Now I remember, etc." I would just be able to show the picture of the rival, introduce him with a prescribed name and then skip those parts with naming him and the following text until it goes into the "Journey about to unfold" bit? If I need to clarify let me know, thanks.

Hi there,
I've found lots of currency converter table plugins but what I need is slightly different.
I'd like to have a form in the admin panel to enter the exchange rate and then be able to covert a price (perhaps from a custom field...) and display it in the new currency
Basically the viewer shouldn't see a box or anything it should just look like normal text but the text is calculated automatically from the exchange rate
The benefit here is the admin person can update the exchange rate but never have to go around changing the base price of the item.
Any suggestions???

Re: 15 games
Phil & Wlady:
I don't follow the NBA enough to know where to come down in your debate, but I do know enough about Isiah Thomas, the Knick coach whose impact on the franchise has been utterly ruinous since the moment he arrived. Whatever his role in instigating the brawl was or wasn't, it's pretty lame to hear him justifying it with what amounts to a bruised sense of fair play.
"We had surrendered," he said of his team at the moment in the game when the fight started, and then, referring to the Nuggets regulars, "those guys shouldn't have been in the game at that time. They were sticking it to us pretty good. They were having their way with us pretty good."
Isiah was upset that the Nuggets were showing up his squad. This from one of the worst sportsman the game has ever seen, exemplified in his leading his Detroit Piston regulars off the court in the 1991 conference finals, refusing to shake the hands of their conquerors, the Chicago Bulls of Michael Jordan. That is right up there with the most graceless moments I've ever seen in sports. Another came after one of Larry Bird's greatest games, when an opposition player told the press that if Bird were black, he'd be just another player. Who said that? Isiah Thomas, of course.
