Let's make a thread to watch Vika rise up the rankings:bounce:
Vika fell down 1 spot this week and she is now #9:sad::sad::sad:
She is #5 in the race:D and #20 in doubles;)
Re: Ranks
this week she is playing in Rome. No matter how she does, it will count towards her ranking. You can see here, which tournaments in the past 52 weeks she has played and how well she did:
Berlin 2008 will come off as Rome 2009 points are added, and as Vika doesn't play many tournaments a year, she doesn't have any back-up tournaments.
Next week is Madrid which is mandatory. Rome 2008 points will fall off as they get "too old".
BTW, Vika rank tracker from when she entered top20:
it took her 45 weeks to get from top20 to top10. I'm trying to compare that number to other players. So far I've only checked A. Radwanska. It only took her 18 weeks.
Re: Ranks
Once again Vika is at #8:D
Re: Ranks
Vika has defended her R32 from last year, so any more victories at Wimbledon for Vika will be a bonus:D
Re: Ranks
Christina, what is the ranking situation for after Wimbledon? Will she pass Vera?
Re: Ranks
Vera is at 5400 points when the next ranking comes out.
If Vika loses in the R16, Vika is at: 4846
If Vika loses in the QF, Vika is at: 5066
If Vika loses in the SF, Vika is at: 5466
If Vika loses the final, Vika is at: 5966
If Vika wins Wimbledon: 6566
So Vika needs a SF at least to pass Vera.
Wozniacki is close to Vika. Only 66 points or something like that behind her, so if Caro advance one round or more better than Vika, Vika and Caro will shift places in the rankings.
The gap between 7 and 8 is rather big unfortunately so she needs good results to advance in the rankings. But only Wozniacki is close from behind. The gap to Petrova at 10 is big.
Re: Ranks
Thanks, Christina:)
With Vera, JJ, and Sveta out now, Vika can make a big move up the ranks:)
Re: Ranks
she def. has a chance to close the gap and then make the ranking move during the summer
Re: Ranks
Christina (a.k.a. The Numbers Magician), what will happen with rankings if Caroline wins Bastad?
Re: Ranks
If Wozniacki wins Bastad she'l only be 6 points behind Vika, assuming Vika has no points coming off next week.
Re: Ranks
Re: Ranks
Here is what Vika has to defend from now until the US Open:
140 points-Los Angeles
390 points-Toronto (Montreal)
96 points-Olympics
180 points-US Open
Combined: 806 points
Re: Ranks
Re: Ranks
Here is what Vera Zvonareva has to defend this Summer:
2 points-Stanford (not in Best 16)
70 points-Los Angeles
2 points-Toronto (Montreal) (not in Best 16)
350 points-Olympics
120 points-US Open
Combined: 540 points
So it will tough for Vika to overcome her:(
Re: Ranks
250 points-Los Angeles
220 points-Toronto (Montreal)
180 points-Olympics
1400 points-US Open
Combined: 2,050
There's a very good chance that Vika will pass her :D

Advising Information
Students are encouraged to meet with their advisor each semester to confirm that their Plan of Study is accurate and complete. If necessary, changes and updates should be made in order to ensure that program requirements can be completed in a timely manner. Faculty advisors work with students to explore appropriate internships, cooperative education placements and/or experiential learning opportunities that will enhance the student's academic program. In addition, advisors provide assistance in selecting elective courses which support the student's interests, career plans, and professional development.
Academic advising services for freshmen health and human performance majors are provided through the Advising Center on McMullen Hall first floor west, but students are encouraged to establish a relationship with department faculty as early as possible. During the sophomore year, health and human performance majors will be assigned to a faculty advisor in their department for upper-division advising and advising files for upper-division students are maintained within the department.

At least seven more people applied Tuesday to become Baton Rouge's police chief, bringing the total applicant pool to 16.
Of the 16 candidates, 13 serve in the Baton Rouge Police Department, according to documents provided by the Municipal Fire and Police Civil Service Board. One other candidate worked for the department for 26 years before leaving in 2004.
At least 11 have previously applied for the chief's position.
As of 3:15 p.m. Tuesday, the seven people who applied are:
Only four people had submitted applications as of Sunday: Provisional Chief Carl Dabadie Jr.; Baton Rouge Police Capt. James G. Drickamer; Gonzales Police Department Officer Christopher P. Hagan Sr.; and Bill D. Press, the former police chief of Fairhope, Ala.
Five current Police Department officers turned in their applications Monday: Cpl. Myron K. Daniels, Sgt. Jonathan S. Dunnam, Lt. Todd Lee, Capt. Noel Salamoni and Maj. Patricia Tauzin.
The 11 who have applied for the position before are: Dabadie, Daniels, Drickamer, Dunn, Dunnam, Hagan, Johnson, Kelly, LaMotte, Lee and Tauzin.
The Civil Service Board will approve applications at its April 18 meeting. A two-part chief's test will be administered May 22. The board will approve the exam scores and forward the names of those who passed to the mayor's office. Applicants must have a grade of 75 percent or higher to pass the test.
"We're pleased with the amount of applicants, and we have the utmost confidence in the mayor-president to make the best possible selection for the people of Baton Rouge," police union President Cpl. Chris Stewart said. "It's going to be a daunting task pulling the city back together after the turmoil."
The position became vacant after Mayor-President Kip Holden fired former Chief Dewayne White on Feb. 18.
White has accused Holden of micromanagement and has claimed the police union played a role in his firing.
Holden has called the former chief a "master of deception" who disobeyed orders and divided the community.
Advocate staff writer Jim Mustian contributed to this report.

An after school center that strives to help kids improve their lives got a helping hand of their own on Wednesday.
About 30 U.S. Cellular employees volunteered their time to get the Building Hope Community Life Center in Greenville ready for a new school year. Building Hope provides academic support and other services to at-risk youth.
Volunteers, staff and kids who attend the center landscaped, painted and did some cleaning.
Staff members say it's a huge help and a great example for the kids.
U.S. Cellular also donated three iPads and new tools for the children to use in the center's bike shop.

As one of the longest running musical outfits in St. Augustine, The Wobbly Toms formed back in 2003 and have been gigging ever since.
Best known for his roles as founder and one of the lead singers of both Jefferson Airplane and Jefferson Starship, Marty Balin's musical influence spans some five decades. Today, Balin adds painter and art gallery owner to his resume.
In celebration of St. Augustine's 450th birthday, Balin will perform tunes from his latest album, "Good Memories," as well as classic hits for First Friday Art Walk at Marty Balin Atelier on King Street on Sept. 4. Balin will be joined by Lloyd Goldstein on bass and Chuck Morrongiello on guitar.
For more than two decades, Dan Andriano has made a name for himself as bassist, vocalist and co-lyricist of the punk rock band, Alkaline Trio. He also has a burgeoning solo career under the moniker Dan Andriano In The Emergency Room. A St. Augustine resident since 2007, Andriano is working on balancing his music career with duties as a father to third-grader Sophie Moon and husband to his wife, Sunshine.
Compass: What are you up to today?
Jeff Rosenstock: Woke up super early today to drive from San Jose through the dust bowl down to Los Angeles. We have a lot of friends down here, which I know is a total biz cliché, but we do. So we've been hanging out and catching up. Right now, I'm watching Pet Symmetry shred their last song.
Compass: Will this be your first time playing St. Augustine?
Jacob Hamilton's motivation is simple. He cuts yards during the morning and early afternoon to afford being able to surf, fish and play music every day.
"I've had this epiphany all of the sudden," Hamilton said. "I'd always thought that I wanted to be in one band that was really active. A few years ago, I realized that that would mean I'd be playing the same songs over and over again 100 times. Now, I just want to be available. I want to play music with my friends."
Maybe you've seen them play at one of the various local venues they frequent. They're hard to miss, after all. Go Get Gone, comprised of husband and wife duo, Mike Edginton (guitar/lead vocal) and Angi Edginton (upright bass/backup vocals), and Katie Gay on drums, are a Rockabilly outfit with attitude. Formed in 2009, the group has become a musical mainstay everywhere from Sangrias to A1A Aleworks. Compass caught up with Angi to chat about music in the 1950s, the local music scene and what's next for the band. Here's part of that conversation.
Easily one of the most well known rockers on the Planet, musician Bryan Adams is a busy man. After all, the Grammy-winning singer-songwriter has sold more than 65 albums worldwide, garnered 21 Top 10 hits and seven No. 1 hits. Adams is also a celebrated photographer, magazine publisher and bona fide philanthropist, raising funds to better the lives of disadvantaged individuals all over the world.
At it since the early 1990s, American rock band Third Eye Blind make their way to the Amphitheatre on Sunday night in support of their upcoming record, Dopamine. This is the band's sixth studio album. Known for hits like "Semi-Charmed Life" and "How's It Going to Be," Third Eye Blind has sold nearly 12 million records worldwide. Compass caught up with lead singer, songwriter and guitarist Stephan Jenkins to chat about playing with Dashboard Confessional, Beyonce and having youthful fans. Here's part of that conversation.
The boys of Old Crow Medicine Show are no strangers to St. Augustine. The roots string six-piece, originally formed in Virginia in 1998 and currently based out of Nashville, has played the Amphitheatre numerous times. They return tomorrow night with openers The Devil Makes Three in support of their ninth studio album and latest Grammy Award-winning record, "Remedy," for which they won Best Folk Album. Compass caught up with Critter Fuqua, Old Crow's banjo player, guitarist and vocalist, to chat about St. Augustine, life on the road and coming up with a setlist.
Celebrating its 20th Anniversary, the Gamble Rogers Music Festival continues to feature some of the best in acoustic Americana and roots music. The three-day event is held Friday through Sunday with six stages on the St. Augustine Amphitheatre grounds. The festival kicks off tonight with special guests Wilco, and the weekend continues with dozens of local and national acts including The Steel Wheels, Chris Henry and the Hardcore Grass, and Jim Stafford. Compass caught up with Trent Wagler, lead singer, guitarist and frontman for The Steel Wheels, for a little Gamble Rogers preview.

Post-(optional) morning skate notes: Tuukka Rask first off the ice, for what it's worth
|01.06.11 at 12:19 pm ET
The Bruins held an optional morning skate in anticipation of Thursday night's tilt with the Wild at TD Garden. The following players participated:
Forwards: Nathan Horton, Daniel Paille, David Krejci, Blake Wheeler, Brad Marchand, Tyler Seguin, Milan Lucic, Gregory Campbell.
Defensemen: Steven Kampfer, Johnny Boychuk, Andrew Ference, Dennis Seidenberg, Adam McQuaid
Goaltenders: Tuukka Rask, Tim Thomas
Rask was first off the ice for the B's in the skate, though given the combination of the fact that it was an optional skate and the trickery these guys have pulled in the past, it isn't worth putting too much stock into. Rask made 36 saves in the B's 3-1 victory over the Maple Leafs on Monday, while Thomas played in eight straight games prior to getting the night off in Toronto.
Here are a few notes from after the skate:
– Claude Julien isn't happy with the way the power play has been performing of late. The team has been on the man advantage only six times over the last three games and hasn't scored on any of them.
"I think it's got to get better," Julien said. "We talked about that this morning and again the month of December actually was a decent month for our power play, but so far in January … it hasn't been good enough for us and needs to generate some goals. So it's a challenge for a power play right now to kind of turn that around and bring it up a notch."
– Given that the Bruins are coming off a successful road trip (3-0-2) and are gearing up for a tough stretch that includes games against the Canadiens, Penguins, and Flyers, a home game against Minnesota is a pretty good candidate for a potential trap game. That's not the way Julien sees it.
"I don't know if I'll call it a trap game, but it's certainly a game that is going to represent a challenge for us, and most games do anyways," Julien said. "I think it's important for us to be well prepared and focus properly and come up with a solid effort tonight and give yourselves a chance to win a hockey game and build yourself up in a positive way for this next segment.
– Former Boston College and Bruins forward Chuck Kobasew is back in Boston for the first time since being traded to Minnesota seven games into last season. In parts of four seasons (158 games) with the Bruins, Kobasew had 44 goals and 39 assists.
This season, Kobasew has six goals and an assist in 25 games for the Wild. His former coach had nothing but nice things to say about him.
"Chuck, to me, was always a true professional," Julien said of Kobasew. "He came in and I mean that in the sense where everything he did was related to the game, he came in and it was all business when it was at the rink. Very good individual, good person, and it wasn't easy to let him go."
"I don't think anybody's looking ahead here," he added. "We're at a stage of the season where every game means a lot, and you really have to focus on the game that's in front of you, not the ones that are a few days away, or a week away. I think our guys are pretty focused on the task at hand."
– Tyler Seguin's mother and sisters will be in attendance tonight, as they're in town visiting the 18-year-old. Seguin's mother was at the home-opener vs. the Capitals on Oct. 21, and though his sisters haven't seen him play in Boston, this isn't their first trip to the Garden. The Seguin family took in the Celtics game last night before going back to watch World Junior Championship final between Canada and Russia, a game Russia took, 5-3, via five unanswered goals.
Bruins return to Garden for first time since kicking off hot streak
|01.06.11 at 10:33 am ET
The Bruins have begun to catch fire since pounding the Thrashers, 4-1, at the Garden on Dec. 23. They have points in each of their last six games, coming away with four wins in a stretch that's seen them go 4-0-2. On Thursday, they face a Wild team that has won two in a row and is two points out of a playoff spot in the Western Conference.
– The B's haven't played at the Garden since their statement game against the Thrashers, On the season, they are 9-6-3 at home, including their season-opening loss in Prague.
– The Wild are 3-1-1 in their last five away games. Their road record is identical to the Bruins' home record at 9-6-3.
– It's been a tale of two Tylers, so to speak, regarding Tyler Seguin and his production at home and on the road. Seguin has picked up just three of his 13 points in home games, and has scored just one goal at TD Garden. Here are his splits:
Home (17 games): 1 G, 2 A, 3 P, minus-5
Road (19 games): 5 G, 5 A, 10 P, plus-7
Milan Lucic is among the guys who have fared just about the same regardless of location. He's split his 28 points right down the middle, picking up 14 at home and 14 on the road.
– The Bruins have gone 0-for-6 on the power play over their last three games, which suggests they could stand to draw a few more penalties and capitalize when they do so. The Wild have kill off 81.2 percent of their penalties this season, which puts them 19th in the league in penalty kill percentage.
– Minnesota winger Martin Havlat has four assists in his last four games and has totaled 27 this season. The numbers aren't all pretty for Havlat, as he was a minus-four on Sunday against the Coyotes in a 6-5 overtime loss.
– Who will center the second line? Claude Julien gave Tyler Seguin a good deal of time between Patrice Bergeron and Mark Recchi in the Monday's 2-1 victory over the Maple Leafs. The coach said Tuesday that he feels comfortable using the two interchangeably in the middle and on the left wing, as Bergeron got plenty of experience at wing early on in his career.
– The Lucic-Savard-Horton line looks as though it has finally gotten going, as it was able to produce goals from both Nathan Horton (his first in nine games) and Marc Savard on Monday. Horton finished the night with a pair of points.
– With the five-game road-trip in the mirror, this game kicks off a rather difficult stretch over the next eight games. Their coming opponents include the Canadiens, Penguins (twice), Flyers, and Hurricanes (twice).
Tuukka Rask remains a cool customer in dealing with role
|01.05.11 at 6:55 pm ET
WILMINGTON — Right now Tuukka Rask is looking for a happy medium of sorts. Perhaps the most surprising backup goalie of the year, Rask has made just 11 starts this season after emerging as the starter down the stretch and into the playoffs in the 2009-10 campaign.
"It's different, and I think everybody has to go through it at some point, Rask said Wednesday. "In my short career, I haven't sat on the bench that much, and this is definitely the most I've ever sat. '¦ You can't get satisfied sitting on the bench. You've got to work hard and try to find you game and get those wins the team needs."
The opportunity to get those wins has not been presented to Rask nearly as much as many expected going into the season. Tim Thomas has been the man between the pipes for more than two-thirds of the Bruins' games thus far, and Rask recently spent seven games straight games on the bench.
With his role so different from what he and a great number of people had anticipated, it's no wonder that coach Claude Julien has expressed some sort of concern with making sure the goalie stays confident. The remedy for any confidence issues the 23-year-old could be battling is more frequent starts, and results when he does play.
"It's funny how it goes, confidence-wise when you're playing a lot and you're in that groove and you're feeling good about yourself, and then you don't play that much," Rask said. "You shouldn't be feeling bad, but there's nothing you can do about it because you haven't played. You try to find that groove and get on it, but it's challenging. Hopefully I can find it."
With Rask's starts on Saturday and Monday, the Finnish netminder received consecutive starts for the first time all season. Getting the start Monday seemed big for Rask, as he rebounded from a poor first-period showing in Buffalo to a performance in which he shut down the Leafs en route to a 2-1 victory. He said that he approached both games the same way, and that given the circumstances under which he was pulled against the Sabres, the Bruins' weren't in too bad of shape at the time of his exit.
"I was still up, 4-3, when I got pulled," Rask said. "It wasn't that tough for me to prepare mentally and then try to have that bounce-back feeling. Still, when you get pulled, you don't want to get pulled twice in a row. You try to earn the trust and earn the win. That's the only thinking I was thinking."
Rask is 3-7-1 with a 2.63 goals against average this season. His .927 save percentage would be good for fourth in the NHL if he had enough minutes to qualify.
Mark Stuart still taking steps towards return to Bruins lineup
|01.05.11 at 2:14 pm ET
WILMINGTON — Bruins defenseman Mark Stuart, out since Dec. 7 with a broken hand a dislocated finger, is making continued progress on the comeback trail.
At the time of his injury, which occurred while making a pass in the team's 3-2 overtime win against the Sabres, general manager Peter Chiarelli projected a four-to-six-week absence from the lineup for the blueliner. Wednesday marked four weeks and one day since the injury. Stuart has been skating without teammates, and prior to Wednesday's practice he took to the ice with strength and conditioning coach John Whitesides. He's not yet to the point where he can work with pucks, but his coach hopes that he isn't far off.
"He's skating and he's coming along," Julien said of Stuart. "I don't know how far he is from starting to handle pucks, but at least he's on the ice. Things seem to be heading in the right direction."
In 26 games this season, Stuart has a plus-3 rating and a pair of assists to go with 23 penalty minutes.
Claude Julien open to giving Tyler Seguin more time between Patrice Bergeron and Mark Recchi
|01.05.11 at 1:02 pm ET
WILMINGTON — Bruins coach Claude Julien said following the team's practice at Ristuccia Arena on Wednesday that he feels comfortable using both rookie Tyler Seguin and veteran Patrice Bergeron interchangeably at center on the second line. Given both players' experience at wing, Julien trusts either one at either position on their line with Mark Recchi.
Monday night in Toronto, Julien gave Seguin, who has typically played the wing with Bergeron and Recchi, more time as a pivot, with Bergeron playing left wing.
"Most of it was [at center]," Julien said of Seguin's 14:21 of ice time in the team's 2-1 victory over the Maple Leafs. "[Bergeron] was taking some face-offs, but for the most part, [Seguin] was at center. In cases like that, I'm kind of using them both. If it's late in the game, and you really want to make sure you're good in your own end, you go with the experienced guy, but at the same time, Tyler is obviously a little bit more comfortable at center using a little bit more of the ice, so you give him that opportunity as well.
"Bergy has played wing before, so I think we can alternate those two guys depending on the game situation."
Seguin has made strides of late, and after getting just 6:30 of ice time against the Thrashers on Thursday, had a strong showing vs. the Sabres on Saturday. The 18-year-old had a goal and an assist and led the B's with six shots on goal in the team's 7-6 shootout loss while also scoring in the shootout.
"A lot of it is about feeling comfortable about his game and his overall game," Julien said of Seguin's recent play. "I think that's what's happening now."
In 36 games this season, Seguin has six goals and seven assists.
Mike Milbury on D&H: 'Tuukka Rask is the future of this franchise'
|01.05.11 at 12:52 pm ET
NESN and NBC Sports hockey analyst Mike Milbury checked in for his weekly visit with the Dale & Holley show Wednesday to talk about the Bruins and the NHL. To hear the interview, go to the Dale & Holley audio on demand page.
Milbury said the calls for Claude Julien to be fired during the Bruins' recent slump were uncalled for. "I didn't think it was fair," Milbury said. "I mean, here's a guy a year just removed a year from the Coach of the Year award and a team that was second overall in the National Hockey League, and I know the story of the collapse as well as anybody, but one game from the conference championship. Then he comes into this season and because of bumps in the road, all of a sudden it's all his fault."
Added Milbury: "I don't think at any time did Peter Chiarelli have in mind that this was Claude Julien's fault."
Describing Julien's coaching attributes, Milbury said: "I think he's an honest, diligent coach who's fair to his players. I think he's a very even-keeled coach. He's not a ranter or a screamer. I don't think there's as much room for that in today's game with today's player as there was in previous years. '¦ I think he's a good coach."
Milbury has consistently preached that the Bruins need to give more playing time to Tuukka Rask because he is the obvious goalie of the future in Boston while Tim Thomas is toward the end of his career. In the past week, Rask was pulled after one period of a loss to the Sabres but inserted the following game and delivered in a 2-1 win over the Maple Leafs.
"I think they've been a little unfair to Tuukka Rask," Milbury said. "I think they yanked the chance to be the No. 1 goaltender. And again, we've kind of gone through this before, but Thomas has been incredible. But Tuukka Rask is the future of this franchise in terms of goaltending. I don't think he deserves to be given second-tier status or backup status. I would have thought they would have gone to two No. 1 goaltenders for a while. And I was happy he got back in net. I've been wanting to see more of Tuukka Rask, because I think down the line, they're going to need him. It was a great sign that he bounced back. It was a great sign that they gave him an opportunity and a great sign that he bounced back."
Bruins return to practice in Wilmington
|01.05.11 at 10:38 am ET
WILMINGTON — The Bruins took the ice Wednesday for their first practice at Ristuccia Arena since the day after Christmas. All healthy players were accounted for, while Mark Stuart, still recovering from injuries to his hand and finger, skated with John Whitesides prior to the skate, according to the Bruins.
The color-coded lines when the players took the ice were the same as they had been since Gregory Campbell returned in the team's victory over the Maple Leafs Monday:
The B's did some line work, practiced the power play and had some fun with penalty shots. Blake Wheeler tried to pull a Linus Omark, and though he pulled off the spin move, he did not beat Tuukka Rask.

A Card to Print out for your Wine Collection.
2011 - Lubentiushof Uhlen Riesling Alte Reben
David Schildknecht - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Sub Region
750 mL
library code: 76069
From the Critics:
"The 12% alcohol Lubentiushof 2011 Koberner Uhlen Riesling Alte Reben delivers a combination of levity, infectious juiciness, and transparency of lushly-ripe fruit to mineral and floral nuances such as one seldom encounters from any portion of this admittedly heterogeneous but always relatively warm and dry site. (This wine came from a blue slate sector on the Kobern - as opposed to Winningen - side of Uhlen.) Pear and caramelized parsnip, papaya and fennel: to say that the array of fruit and vegetable elements here is colorfully diverse would be considerable understatement, and it engages in a dynamic dance with stony, smoky, saline, cyanic and shimmeringly crystalline nuances. Almond and pistachio extracts allied to liquid perfume of honeysuckle and rowan add seductive allure. There is an infectious juiciness and exhilarating lift on the mid-palate and a vibrantly interactive (virtually dry) finish, any one of which is rare in this vintage. A ravishing representation of its great site, this should be worth following through at least 2030."
"Andreas Barth - for further details about whose methodology and exceptional, if nowadays obscure, Lower Mosel sites, see especially my reports in issues 167 and 199 - has managed an outstanding 2011 collection (this alongside his exemplary work as cellarmaster for the von Othegraven estate on the Saar) - indeed, his finest in my experience. These wines were harvested largely only in the second half of October, and the two old vines selections finished fermenting only toward the end of the summer. But they were then bottled almost immediately; in fact, just before I tasted them early last September - when they betrayed no indications of shock - which is close to a month sooner than usual. There was no hedging or de-leafing of the vines here this year, and it's entirely possible that diverting a bit of the vines' energy to foliage rather than sugar-production was beneficial in 2011. 'In view of the health of the clusters, I had no need to free-up the fruit zone by removing leaves,' explains Barth, adding: 'that might have been a significant factor' in the resulting quality." -

Its easy to find a standard CMS system - but what do you recommend to setup a web page that is 70% www.tripadvisor.com and 30% www.hostels.com ? (The page I'm working on is not going to be a competitor to any of those pages) But it is to give an Idea about what I need. It is important for me that it is going to be web 2.0 based - so the users can interact as much as possible and the providers can list their products them self. It will be a page where the users can fine general information as well as testimonials and ratings of the suppliers.
Sorry I cant tell you what industry it is for and if you think I sound like a rookie then it is because I'm not a programmer but I couldn't think of a better place to ask my question than here.
Second question: I'm based in Asia so if anybody can recommend a good company that can make this webpage/information portal then please let me know.
Thank you

AnywAY does anyone have any flattering outfits they recently purchased online?
proud mama to Lillian and Noah, born 5/22/09
All of my pre-pregnancy clothes are way too big because I am soooo skinny now!
Just wanted to make someone mad...the answer is no, I am just wearing my maternity clothes because not a single pair of pants fits yet. I still have about 15-20 lbs to lose, and I am just wearing what I have. I bought quite a bit of maternity clothes (mostly second-hand) and I intend to get my money out of them!
At least it is getting colder, and I can layer a bit to hide some of the big problem areas!
I have one pair of maternity jeans I am still wearing when I leave the house. Otherwise its leggings and sweats at home.
Proud Mommy to Sawyer Reed born 9/11/12
I don't go out much so I can get away with the 4 or 5 shirts I have that fit. I haven't tried most my sweaters cause they're still packed up from last winter, but I do have one sweater I left out that fits.
As for pants I can't fit any of my pre-pregnancy pants so I'm stuck in my maternity pants still and I hate it. My husband's all "You'll lose the weight and get back into them!" I told him it might take a year. He doesn't care. He doesn't see anything wrong with me wearing the same 3 maternity pants for the next several months. Well, I'm going to get at least one or two new pairs of pants whether or not he likes it. I'll check the thrift store first though.
Coats are the problem. I have one big snow coat that I know will fit. But it's not fashionable and when we go to town I want to look nice. But I don't have a lot of coats that are really large so I'm worried they won't zip right and I'll look like ultra fat. We've already had snow on the ground the last day or two and it's been snowing for a few days before that, so I need to figure out my coat situation asap.

In case of things that are hard to test using traditional xUnit-style methods, such as various converters, XSLT, etc. I often employ technique based on output comparison. The test program produces some output when it's run for the first time. I make sure it's correct and save it for the later use. On the following runs the program compares the new output with the previously saved output and shows any differences. After that I may either fix the program to make the output match again or (and this is important!) I may accept the changes so that the data used for comparison are updated.
Of course, there are other aspects, such as using different preprocessing for comparison and for diffs, e.g. XML is compared using canonical representation, JSON is parsed first, s-expressions are read using lisp reader etc. while pretty-printed represention is used for diffs. The comparison can be re-run using some specified transformations such as removing parts of the output.
I use such techniques both for python where the driver program calls WSGI application using requests defined in a test script and for some Common Lisp programs including a converter from random/broken HTML to a proprietary XML format and a linear accelerator control system where control algorithms produce s-expr based output as they execute using device simulators that produce some output too.
The problem is, I don't know what is exact name for such technique. I know it's used in other places and there is even a testing framework called izh-test that uses something similar. But I've never heard of any specific name for it, including the 'accept changes' part. Data-driven testing? Seems like not quite. Any suggestions?

In this lesson, we will learn how to manage data that is stored as a text file. Using text file is an easy way to manage data, although it is not as sophisticated as full fledged database management software such as SQL Server, Microsoft Access and Oracle. Visual Basic 2008 allows the user to create a text file, save the text file as well as read the text file. It is relatively easy to write code for the above purposes in VB2008 compared to VB6.
Reading and writing to a text file in VB2008 required the use of the StreamReader class and the StreamWriter class respectively. StreamReader is a tool that enables the streaming of data by moving it from one location to another so that it can be read by the user. For example, it allows the user to read a text file that is stored in a hard drive. On the other hand, the StreamWriter class is a tool that can write data input by the use to a storage device such as the hard drive.

This past weekend our AC went out - while we had record high temps of 105-109. We tied TX for the hottest place in the US. Our AC went out Saturday morning, just as our landlord went on vacation. He's been diligent in helping us get in touch with the home warranty company for help and paid the fee for the tech to come look at the unit. Today, 4 days into the unit not working, a tech was able to come out and see our unit (there is a very very long list of necessary repairs right now). We need a certain piece that is going to be ordered and will arrive early next week. Thus, we won't have AC til early next week at the earliest (Tuesday or Wednesday). Temps have cooled to a nice 95 degrees (LOL) and we do have a place to stay til Sunday but after that we won't have anywhere to stay without inconveniencing family...and of course with a 2 year old, we want to be at home. We are even supposed to get a new sofa this coming weekend and will have to do that without AC and get our old one out without AC too!
My grandmother mentioned that we should have grounds to ask the landlord for money off on our rent for the next month (since we already paid this month of course!). I'm not sure. I can't find a ton online about it...but we'd be out of our home about 12ish days...that almost half a month!
Any thoughts? Anyone a landlord who knows if this is accurate?
We live in NC if that helps...

Our clients come from all walks of life, with different backgrounds and experiences. But they all share one thing: they've experienced a needless, catastrophic injury.
At Newsome Melton, we help bring back financial security to individuals and families affected by brain and spinal cord injuries.Get Free Advice Now
We limit our practice to only the most serious injury cases involving brain injury, spinal cord injuries or death. Because we help only clients with the most serious injuries, we don't have a "volume" practice, like other law firms who take anything that comes in the door. As our client, you will know and work directly with us, your lawyers - not just a legal assistant or paralegal.
Our firm has received the highest peer review ratings because we win cases - not just through settlements - but in the courtroom and in trial with juries and judges. With a proven track record of litigating serious cases against big hospitals and corporations, the other side knows we have the financial strength to go the distance.
Through trial, a typical case will cost in excess of 150, 000 for things like expert witnesses, depositions, filing fees and exhibits. And this is in ADDITION to the attorney's fees. Most families can't afford to pay fees or costs so we handle most of our clients on a contingency fee basis. This means we front all of the costs and get paid from a percentage of the recovery. And if we lose (which fortunately only rarely happens), you don't owe us a dime for fees or costs.

For Eye Care Professionals
Always wash, rinse and thoroughly dry your hands before handling your lenses.
Check that the special lens case includes the neutralizing disc in the base.
Stand the case on its lid on a flat surface. Open lens baskets. Place your left and right lenses on the domes inside the baskets (left side is green and marked with the letter "L"). Close the baskets taking care not to trap the lenses.
After both lenses are removed from the eyes, take each lens from its holder and place into the palm of your hand. Apply 2 - 4 drops of PeroxiClear and gently rub lenses for 5 seconds on each side.
Return lenses to the appropriate basket, taking care not to trap the lens.
Hold the lens case lid and rinse each lens for 5 seconds in the baskets with PeroxiClear over a sink or basin.
Fill the lens case up to the fill line with fresh PeroxiClear then immediately place the holder basket into the lens case. Screw the lid on the case and store lenses in upright case for at least 4 hours. Do not shake or invert case once filled.
Your lenses will be ready for wear after soaking for 4 hours.
Once lenses are removed from the baskets, discard any remaining solution from the lens case, rinse the case with PeroxiClear over a sink or basin, and leave the lid off the case to air dry.
Some GP users may experience a mild, temporary skin discoloration (bleaching) to their fingers or hands while rubbing their lenses. Always wash and rinse your hands after rubbing your lenses with PeroxiClear.
The red tip means DO NOT put peroxide solution directly in the eye. Failure to follow directions for use will result in burning and stinging. DO NOT place your lens into the eye until complete neutralization of the solution has occurred (minimum 4 hours). Do not rinse lenses with PeroxiClear solution prior to inserting lenses into your eyes. If you want to rinse your lenses, use a sterile saline solution.

Always follow the instructions for use and allow to soak for at least 4 hours. Do not rinse lenses with PeroxiClear before inserting in eyes, or burning and stinging will result. If you accidentally get unneutralized PeroxiClear in your eyes, remove lenses immediately and flush eyes with large amounts of water or sterile saline. If burning or irritation continues, seek help from an eye care professional.
STORAGE: You may store your lenses for a maximum of 7 days in the unopened lens case. If stored longer than 7 days before wear, you must repeat the cleaning and disinfecting cycle prior to wearing your lenses.

By Grace Wyler
A local company has taken the tobacco market by storm with a machine that gives a technological upgrade to the timeless art of cigarette rolling.
But the State Street manufacturer, RYO Machine Rental, has come up against a formidable pair of opponents: federal regulators and Big Tobacco.
RYO, short for "roll-your-own," has had explosive growth in its two-year existence. The company has about 200 machines at tobacco shops in 30 states, up from 10 machines in 2008. The company recently expanded its workforce to 30 to meet growing demand.
"It just took off," said owner Phil Accordino. "We recognized a niche and it just exploded."
But production at RYO's facility came to a halt last month when federal tobacco regulators ruled it illegal for a retailer to have an RYO machine without a manufacturers' permit.
The RYO Filling Stations automate the cigarette-rolling process, producing 200 cigarettes in 10 to 20 minutes, eliminating the need for the consumer to insert tobacco into each individual cigarette.
The longtime owner of Cheap Tobacco, a Girard tobacco retailer that specializes in roll-your-own cigarettes, Accordino noted a rising demand for his products as cigarette prices increased.
"Roll-your-own was our niche, so we started looking for better ways to do that," Accordino said. The machine "is not a particularly innovative technology. We just borrowed from other concepts to make it more convenient and user-friendly."
Tobacco companies and industry regulators have cried foul, arguing that retailers with an RYO machine are actually manufacturing cigarettes and should be subject to the same permitting rules and taxes that apply to cigarette manufacturers.
Accordino takes issue with the characterization, likening RYO machines to a supermarket coffee-bean grinder that allows customers to grind beans in-store, rather than using personal grinders or buying packaged ground beans. "The slowest manufacturing machine on the market makes 2,500 cigarettes a minute," he said. "Our machine can make maybe 10."
Accordino sees the company as a scapegoat for an argument that rolling tobacco companies and retailers are taking advantage of a federal-tax loophole by substituting pipe tobacco for traditional cigarette tobacco. A 2009 federal-tax increase on rolled tobacco products increased the tax on cigarette-cut tobacco from $1.10 per pound to $23.68 per pound. The tax on pipe tobacco went from $1.10 to $1.73. The RYO machine is made for cigarette tobacco but it can use pipe tobacco.
As a result, a carton of 200 cigarettes produced by an RYO machine is about half the cost of a carton of manufactured cigarettes. "The big tobacco companies already saw roll-your-own cigarettes as a threat to their market share," Accordino said. "So in a way we were too successful."
On Sept. 30, the federal Alcohol and Tobacco Tax bureau ruled that retailers with RYO machines are commercially manufacturing cigarettes. The ruling, which effectively bans RYO machines, states that the "personal-use exception" that allows consumers to make alcoholic beverages or cigarettes for private consumption does not apply to cigarettes made by the RYO machine — "as it is the machine that manufactures the cigarettes, not the consumer."
The decision has brought the company to a standstill. The factory is now empty, its 30 workers furloughed while the company determines how best to appeal.
"The big cigarette companies are very, very powerful," Accordino said. "And this is not a politically correct business — it's easy to get vilified."
Accordino projects that the end of production at RYO will result in an overall loss of 304 jobs in Ohio, as the company's suppliers cut employees taken on to meet RYO's growth demands.
"I am not going to sit here and say I am saving humanity," he said. "But those were jobs and money that were staying in Ohio."
This is typical of Govt. REMEMBER NOVEMBER
Probably wouldn't be a problem if Big Tobacco wasn't bitching about it.
So remember that come November, that major corporations are now sinking allot of money anonymously into campaigns in order for them to take over our country.
And guess who's getting that money?
are the machines too expensive for people to buy themselves? maybe he could make a business out of selling the machines?
NO way this guy could be allowed to continue in this manufacturing business. It is the same reason that smoking will never be made illegal in the US. The federal government makes wheelbarrows full of tax revenue from tobacco. Even the President won't stop it!
Big Business at the reins and government backing them up. What a horrible shame. I don't smoke so it really doesn't affect me one way or the other. However, I think the government should concentrate on big and important issues rather than one little guy/business. And these big companies grease the palms of government in one way or the other. Our country is in a big mess and it has a lot to do with politicans and Big Brother. Yes, we need to remember this come November. Our government needs a lot of new blood; get rid of the old crap living the good life on our tax dollars.
Set the machines up in their own business location, say, right next door to a Tobacco Shop. That way customers can purchase their tobacco and supplies at the Tobacco Shop, then head next door to a seperate, stand-alone buiness to "Rent" time on the rolling machine. By keeping the two businesses seperate, and having customers provide their own supplies, "manufacturing" will no longer be an issue.
This is a problem for the growers, not big tobacco. I thought that Ohio, Wva, KY and more were grower states and that this type of thing would have been protected. This is farm, not smoking. and I'm mad. This means that we'll have to smoke chemically-altered crap and there is no opportunity for smaller growers to sell their organic tobacco, I am a smoker. In bad economies, gambling, drinking and smoking still go on. Big T had a huge hand in this.

Blender model cycles render render 400 passes .
Reminds me a lot of the Ilwrath Avenger from Star Control II. It's cool though.
I did search Ilwrath Avenger , your ship I could not find it on the net but I really like to see it.
Okay I see it, yeah you are right pretty much similar ... That is a miss on my part. Maybe one day I would go back and play Star Control. Man! I am so looking forward to Elite Dangerous. That will be an epic over again.
Whoa awesome!
This is really great concept. I like its elegant form and (why hide) its shiny metal flanks
