Columbus North senior Cody Taylor was swimming as fast as he could on Saturday, facing the unknown.
Now if this happened to be the ocean and not the IUPUI Natatorium pool, the unknown might have been sharks.
In this case, the man-sharks were on either side of him, and they were seeking the kill in the 100-yard breaststroke finals of the Indiana High School Athletic Association state boys swimming meet.
Taylor, Columbus North's other-worldly boys swimming standout ... not as tall as Michael Phelps but with more muscles ... had more on his mind than a state championship. He wasn't thinking about his opponents.
He was thinking about time.
No, not trying to see Brazil before he turns 30 kind of time. It's the tick-tick-tick of the stopwatch.
He wanted to swim a sub-54.00 time.
If that 54.00 clicked to 53-point-anything, oh my gosh. Swimming nirvana.
Taylor had set a state record in the event during the state preliminaries on Friday in 54.56, but it wasn't enough to fill his competitive thirst. He wanted more, and he wasn't thinking about his place in the event. He was thinking about a place in state history.
The catch, though, is a swimmer can get caught up in trying to aim for the stars. He can sink himself if he sets such an early grueling pace that he burns himself out for the finish. Taylor went the first 50 yards in 25.74, a half-second faster than the previous night.
Now a half-second to most of us, when used in reference in getting from the couch to the fridge, might seem like the blink of an eye. To a swimmer, a half-second drop in time might represent a year of grueling workouts or more. And to drop that much time early in a race means a swimmer will be in uncharted waters late.
When Taylor turned for home and those final 25 yards, he had forged a lead about the length of a cough.
Taylor, in Lane 4, was head-to-head with Avon's Christian Lorenz in Lane 3 and Bloomington South's Ian Finnerty in Lane 5. You see, usually when an athlete gets squeezed between a pair of opponents during a race, it tends to make him work harder. Think of a horse race, when the one caught in the middle usually gives way. Or perhaps a mile run in track, where the contest pressure from opponents on either side takes a physical and emotional toll.
Not for Taylor.
Trust in swimming takes its own form. At Columbus North, it usually means following a designed plan that results in a certain stopwatch time when all is said and done. Taylor knew he had done the work, and that if he could turn for home even or a bit in front, he would have the strength to finish what he started.
As Taylor made that final push for home, it was Lorenz, who finally placed second, and Finnerty, who finished third, who couldn't stand the pace. Taylor started to inch away, and the inevitable was about to happen. He won, in 54.24, a new state record, again.
The Columbus North swim team had another state champion, another amazing feat to go up on its wall of fame.
But after accepting his medal, posing proudly on the podium and swimming a leg of the 400 free relay, Taylor admitted he wanted that darned time. Fifty-three-and-change sounds so much better than 54. Doesn't it?
To most of the world, no, not really. But to the swimmer with the heart of a lion, one who is headed to Indiana University and perhaps success on an international level, numbers mean everything.
Hopefully, for just a short period of time, Taylor can take a moment to relax, put away the stopwatch and give himself a pat on the back.
For those chanting "Cody ... Cody ... Cody" on Saturday in the crowd at IUPUI and those in the community who have followed his career, there is a number that should make him proud.

Anyone used this method? Did it work? I'm thinking about it for my newly turned 2 year old twins.
3 day potty training?

We used it and I will say it was so frustrating initially but once he started to "get it" it seemed worth it. I think the best thing was going cold turkey out of diapers. My son was about 3 weeks past 2 years old and we are 3 weeks in with very occasional pee accidents. Pooping is another story but we are doing a lot better there too. The book specifically talks about multiples, too, so that should be helpful for you.
Going in to it, just know it's a lot of work and maybe super frustrating but so worth it in the end.

Thank you for posting this! We are on day 4 - my daughter is only 17mo old though (and I know it said to expect it to take longer). I'm not pressuring her so trying to be laid back and use accidents as teaching time. She has been pooping on her potty for over a month so I was hoping this wouldn't be to difficult. We are about 3:4 times successful but we haven't left the house. Good luck! Hoping for more input from others who have tried this method as well!
Posted 03/21/2013
Yep. It's a starter - they won't be completely trained after 3 days, and it was about 2 months before she was accident-free, but the intense focus and ditching the diapers worked really well for us.

This is a basic animation/simulation with background information about the greenhouse effect by DAMOCLES. The animation has several layers to it that allow users to drill into more detail about the natural greenhouse effect and different aspects of it, including volcanic aerosols and human impacts from burning fossil fuels.
This is a figure from the 2007 IPCC Assessment Report 4 on atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide over the last 10,000 years (large panels) and since 1750 (inset panels).
This Flash-based simulation explores the relationship between carbon emissions and atmospheric carbon dioxide using two main displays: (1) graphs that show the level of human-generated CO2 emissions, CO2 removals, and the level of CO2 in the atmosphere, and (2) a bathtub animation that shows the same information as the graphs. The bathtub simulation illustrates the challenges of reducing greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere.
A simple click-through animation from Scripps Institute's Earthguide program breaks the complex topic of the global energy balance into separate concepts. Slides describe the different pathways for incoming and outgoing radiation.
This is an animation from the US Environmental Protection Agency's Students Guide to Global Climate Change, one of a series of web pages and videos about the basics of the greenhouse effect.
In this mock mission, students become members of a research team and conduct a series of tasks to audit Earth's radiative budget. They use a Java Applet/visual viewer to access satellite data sets, calculate the balance of incoming and outgoing solar radiation, and defend their answers to a number of science questions.
This interactive exposes students to Earth's atmospheric gases of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and ozone. As the user manipulates the interactive to increase or decrease the concentration of each gas, explanations and images are provided that explain and visualize what the Earth would be like in each scenario.
This short cartoon video uses a simple baseball analogy (steroid use increases probability of hitting home runs) to explain how small increases in greenhouse gases can cause global temperature changes and increase the probability of extreme weather events.
This short video, is the fifth in the National Academies Climate Change, Lines of Evidence series. It focuses on greenhouse gases, climate forcing (natural and human-caused), and global energy balance.
This video highlights the work of climate scientists in the Amazon who research the relationship between deforestation, construction of new dams, and increased amounts of greenhouse gases being exchanged between the biosphere and the atmosphere.

Ann and Melvin Horne have been working with "Kids Against Hunger" since March of 2005. In that time they've helped to feed thousands of starving children around the world.
"Our first shipment was 140,000 meals, which was a full truckload to the victims of the tsunami in Asia," commented Melvin Horne.
Their latest project is to get three pallets of food to Haiti every month. The boxes are the first shipment to make the journey. Their contents are hope for thousands of hungry children.
Each box is made up of 36 packets, and each packet can feed up to six people.
Going back to March 2005, Melvin said, "When we first started this Ann and I opened a package and cooked it. Lord, it took us three days to eat this package of food, so there's a lot of food in this package."
Each packet costs less than two dollars to produce. Volunteers say a few cents here makes the world of difference to a malnourished body.
Ann Horne commented on the project, "It's overwhelming to be a part of something this big. I mean, there are no words to describe what it does for the young people."
Jennifer Donalson, a volunteer, added, "I feel that this is a great organization and I got my daughter involved because I wanted her to see the importance of helping others."
These gracious volunteers are learning a valuable lesson while feeding the world. The shipment to Haiti will produce more than 21,000 meals.

Sirhan Sirhan, Up For Parole, Said To Have No Memory Of Killing Robert Kennedy
Robert Kennedy's assassin Sirhan B. Sirhan gets a hearing before a California Board of Parole on Wednesday. William Weisel, a TV journalist hit by a bullet during the 1968 attack, tells CNN that he would not oppose Sirhan's release if the parole board granted it.
Sirhan, 66, is serving a life sentence and has failed to win parole on 13 other occasions since his conviction for shooting and killing Kennedy on the night that the brother of slain President John F. Kennedy won California's Democratic presidential primary.
Sirhan lawyer William F. Pepper says the gunman has no memory of the June 4 evening at the Ambasador Hotel in Los Angeles. The AP reports that could undermine any hope of parole based on the criteria the board looks at when considering cases:
At issue is whether Sirhan, 66, remains a threat to others or to himself, whether he has accepted responsibility for the crime and expressed adequate remorse and whether he has an acceptable parole plan if he is released.
His lack of memory makes expressions of remorse and accepting responsibility difficult.
Pepper, however, argues that his client's loss of memory stems from "hypno-programming" and that he was just one part of a larger conspiracy. ABC News reports:
Pepper says he believes he knows who ordered Sirhan to shoot Kennedy, but won't yet say who it is. He said in addition to the parole hearing, he is preparing an appeal.

And the one that matters the most
Only for the most extreme circumstances
Join the NASDAQ Community today and get free, instant access to portfolios, stock ratings, real-time alerts, and more!
iShares, the world's biggest ETF company, cut the price on its
physical gold ETF, the Comex Gold Trust (NYSEArca:IAU), by more
than a third last week in a possible sign of a price war with its
biggest competitor, the SPDR Gold Shares (NYSEArca:GLD).
According to an iShares filing last week, IAU now costs
investors 0.25 percent a year, compared with the 0.40 percent price
it charged previously and that State Street Global Advisors still
charges on GLD. Another competitor, ETFS Physical Swiss Gold
Shares (NYSEArca:SGOL), charges an annual management fee of 0.39
percent. The price change was effective July 1, iShares' BlackRock
said in a press release.
Gold has been a hot safe-haven investment this year since fiscal
problems in Europe began to create renewed uneasiness about the
fragile state of the global economy. GLD rose more than 13 percent
in the first half, and closed today about 1 percent higher at
$117.73. It has almost tripled in price since its rollout in
November 2004, riding a bullish commodity wave that's been building
for the past 10 years.
In its press release, BlackRock said the move was an attempt at
making its gold ETF more accessible at a time the metal is
extremely popular among investors. It also cited IAU's previously
announced 1-for-10 share split as part of its plan to make the ETF
more attractive to potential investors. In his blog, Matt Hougan
argues iShares has a decent chance of stealing market share away
from SSgA.
Officials at both San Francisco-based iShares and Boston-based
SSgA weren't immediately available to comment.
SSgA's GLD is by far the biggest gold ETF, with almost $53
billion in assets at the end of last month, according to data
compiled by IndexUniverse.com. By contrast, IAU has about $3.36
billion in assets, while SGOL has $607 million.
More Than Meets The Eye
While offering a 37.5 percent discount on price is an
eye-catching move by iShares, investors aren't necessarily going to
flock to the broadly similar iShares ETF, which, like GLD, is
backed by physical gold held in a vault.
First, there are trading costs to consider, which can add up
quickly for those who trade GLD heavily, thus obviating any
long-term savings associated with the lower expense ratio. And
there are quite a lot of traders who do buy and sell GLD. The gold
ETF's turnover in June was more than $39 billion, the fifth-most
traded of all U.S. exchange-traded funds, according to
IndexUniverse.com data.
Another important variable is taxes. Commodities, such as gold,
and ETFs that hold gold, are taxed as collectibles, meaning even
long-term holders of funds like GLD don't qualify for long-term
capital gains tax treatment, and instead have to pay ordinary tax
rates of up to 28 percent. That could easily be a deterrent that
trumps any cheaper expense ratio for a selling GLD holder who might
face such a tax bill.
iShares is owned by New York-based money management firm

Finally, a new page!

Today we did Bartlett Lake. No ride pics, but a couple of bike pictures.
Barry1021 rode his absolutely stunning Merck 7-11
I was aboard my trusty AZ De Rosa
b21 had to leave his new ride home, because he didn't have a big enough cog on the cassette
Three fantastic builders: Eddy, Ugo and Carl
We did an out and back from his place to Bartlett Lake
This is the one way profile, obviously, the way back involves a fair bit of climbing from the turnaround
It was a fantastic ride on another perfect day. I feel GREAT!(b21's hot tub and pool helped, and Mrs OFG joined us for the water portion)
Tomorrow we are back down doing the Froot Loops around Paradise Valley, Friday a short ride from b21's before he has to head back East. I have about 10 days left here before I return to Ann Arbor, and potholes and rainy days.
30 miles or so north of Chicago. Couldn't resist this shot. 1973 Raleigh Gran Sport with an unfortunate paint job, fortunately masked by the lo-res photo.
I put my 40-something-year-old body on my 50-something-year-old English trekking bike, and then rode about 25 miles on the Bronx River Parkway in lower Westchester County, New York. Westchester County closes the Parkway off to motorists from 10 am to 2 pm on Sundays during the months of May, September and October. Cyclists can ride from Yonkers, New York up to White Plains, New York. The Bronx River Parkway, as I understand it, was the first parkway in the U.S. It is very scenic. Definitely was worth the trip there for me.
Earlier in the week, I conned Bikingshearer to plan a ride for us. Tired of riding in the same old 'hood, I wanted something different. Rich came up with a wonderful 50 mile loop out through the coastal hills to the coast and back. It turned out to be a great route on many levels - good roads, great scenery, and nice weather. Well, actually the temps did climb a bit toward the end, but had we stayed inland we would have fried - turns out a little heat wave rolled into town Saturday, and we're "enjoying" close to (and in some spots) triple digits.
Anyway, we started off with a brisk but not too long climb and then began the ride in earnest, rolling through the rural ranch-land west of Petaluma. Another climb, a stop at The Cheese Factory, and then more cruising through bucolic farm/ranch-land. It was really quite nice.
Eventually, we came to a little something known locally as the Marshall Wall. This is a fun bit of pavement that starts at around 12% or so, continues up to a false summit, turns left and proceeds to another false summit, and then turns right and eases off to 8 or 9% while traversing a ridge line to the (more or less) real summit. after that, it a little down, a little up, and then a plunge to U.S. HWY 1.
About 1/3 of the way up Rich breaks his chain. Ugh. But wait - Rich has a chain tool! So, we fix it and move on.
Turning left, we followed the coast line of Tomales Bay, where the San Andreas Fault submerges and heads out to sea, to the town of Pt. Reyes Station. A few miles down the road, Rich's RD starts to go into the spokes, but catches it in time and avoids catastrophic damage. We curse, inspect, and move on. A few miles later, I hear more invective behind me - this time the RD went "all in", destroying itself, the wheel, and bending the rear dropout for good measure. The bike is a fatality, and Rich is now on foot.
He ended up getting a ride to the nearest town while I scooted for the car some 15-20 miles distant. By the time I got back to the car it was in the mid-90's and I was pretty gassed, but the a/c and some cool liquid refreshment sorted me out pretty quickly. I loaded up, went back for Rich, and we called it a day.
It was really too bad about all the mechanicals, because we couldn't have asked for a better ride route on that day. It really was a nice day to be out and about on a bike, and it was a shame that it was marred by Rich's bike self-destructing.

No photos - always seem to forget the camera. 46 miles on the 84 Gitane Sprint (the middle 28 being our weekly group ride) and then the distance to and from my house/starting point. Flatted again this week on the rear and think it may be a case of moving rim tape. I have put 156 miles on the bike in the past 9 days and, despite the two flats, am having an absolute blast with it.

Not riding any vintage stuff, but the scenery was amazing! My sister and I went for a Sunday ride at Mohonk Preserve...
View looking south towards Ellenville
View from the tower looking NW over Catskills. Lots of Haze unfortunately...
bikes :
vintage music too (getting old)
My ride was just work and back. Ride to work was "meh" . I don't talk about work. The ride home, though. After adjusting my Brooks tilt and height, I headed out. Saddle was still a little high, so I stopped at the top of a small hill. I'd never noticed how pretty it is till today. Well, dropped my saddle bout' 1/8", stood over it, put my foot in my clips and got going..
PERFECT! It was like a hallelujah how perfect my saddle felt. I think I now know why so many people love their Brooks saddles.
I really need to take some pics of around here, though...
The Cycleheimstress and I took advantage of the great weather today by going for a ride. This lake was along our route.
Where did I ride today?
72.5 miles, to be exact. So: I figured I've needed a break from life, so Memorial day would be a
great day to do a loop. I decided to ride from my home to a place called Huasna that I'd never seen
or heard of before, until I saw a speck of a name on Google Maps. Google gave me a path there.
From there, I'd ride out to Arroyo Grande for a vintage bike shop (with a NIB Campy 50'th! ) a
vintage guitar shop (and fiddles and banjos) and coffee, followed by a ride on the Pacific Coast
trail to Guadalupe for Romo's, the WORLD'S BEST BURRITO, (east coast people put wierd stuff in
their burritos, I'm glad I live in SoCal) and then home.
But that plan failed.
The road to Huasna was all fenced and private.
(Being a fan of Woody guthrie, I ignored this, and)
I got lost in the mountains, and on the way down was informed that there was no way to
Huasna on that road.
This, of course, frustrated me a lot. There went my fun loop ride plan.
So on the way back, my tire flats, adding insult to injury.
Patch: no problem.
Pumping up the tire, my inner tube stem just snaps, and I don't have another.
I end up walking a few miles (of course I'm with my buddy cole) and we hitchike with a guy named
Michael, a screenplay writer going our way, he drops us off at a bike shop back home in Santa
Fix the tire. Square one again.
So we decide, at 3'o clock, that we'd go to Pismo Beach.
On route, the tire flats again- I couldn't figure why.
We go knock on a door and ask for a bucket-
lo and behold: a bad inner tube!
I patch the d@mn thing, and finally get to pismo.
Mmm, great clam chowder...
And ride the Pacific Coast trail home.
-I hitchhiked.
-I rode through the woods.
-I rode through the hills.
-I sunburned my knees.
-I saw pretty girls.
-I had two flats and a snapped inner tube valve.
-I was attacked by a dog while exploring towards Huasna.
-I met a beautiful bulldog like my own when going to the beach.
Not exactly a relaxing break of a day, but a good ride, and at 72 miles/116 kilometers, it was fun.
Pictures, of the ride from home towards Huasna.
After that, frustrated, I failed to take cheery pictures every five minutes.
The turn onto the CA-166, the "Highway of Death. See why when you drive or ride it...
My friend Cole's bike, done at last: (and hastily rigged with a water bottle via tape)
Me, and the bike, haphazardly rigged up for "light touring:"
Blurred shot. Call it an "action shot," although it's just bad photography:
My favorite picture of the ride: (Cole sure looked less dorky than I, but after 50 miles I was doing much better than he)
Lost in the hills, chased by dogs, tired... :
Cute dog I met at the beach:
And, of course, the too-big picture of the ride as a whole:
Allow me to apologise for the size of the final picture.
What a day! *harumpf!*
Or maybe one would live longer if adhering to the opposite view, in the words of the great Roald Amundsen: Adventure is nothing but bad planning.
"Adventure is nothing but bad planning?"
I like that!
I love adventure as a whole, I think it would be pleasantly ironic if I made this my life motto.
Which I am considering.
(And my "harumpf!" was a good one!)
Gorgeous pictures everyone! I'm living vicariously through all of you while I heal up. More stories and pictures to keep me sane!
@ OFG Great pictures! Looks like an incredible place to ride around
@ BigBossMan you always take such awesome pictures! I know we're not too far away from eachother (or are we?) but I need to make a trip to your riding spots!
@ Banjo looks like it was an awesome ride despite the snags... I would endure 100 popped tubes just to ride a few miles right now .
Whelp now that I've wiped the drool from my face... My g/f and I went to lake Shasta with her family this holiday weekend. Great fun... except, I was the only one who didn't bring my bike due to my fractured collar bone! ARGH! My only consolation prize was a glass of gentlemen Jack on the rocks to ease the pain of not being able to ride around such a beautiful place.
Everyone took a ride down to the lake shore. I drove.

Finally got some wheels that allow the odd dirt road to be traversed safely. So, with that new
acquisition in the drop-outs, I turned right at the bottom of the driveway to head up in the mountains
for a great loop ride, instead of going to town.
There's only a few more houses up there before it turns to dirt and starts to climb steeply. The
conifers are thick here on the shaded side of the valley, and the creek was loud, rushing with spring
run off. Soon I got to Hornet Draw, where a few years ago a family of black bears took residence,
waiting for the berries to ripen. No sighting today, which was good because I forgot the air horn.
You don't want to sneak up on those beasts.
Steadily I climbed, over washboards, rocks and loose dirt, to the high saddle 11 miles out. The ascend
to here is about 3200' so I was a little rubbery in the legs when finally putting feet to the ground.
On the other side of the divide is where the wolves hang out. But they roam too, as wolves do,
so hopefully they're out hunting somewhere else. Last week they were down in our backyard, probably
having their eyes on our old dog!
After a rather longish break I rolled over to the descent, down the far side. This is a good one. While I
really like grinding up steep dirt roads, my tolerance for bumpy, jittery downhills is very low. But here
there's only 4 miles of that torture before you get to a long single lane paved descent with no traffic. It
snakes steeply thru the forest via hairpins and banking corners. Too soon I arrived at river level, but way
upstream. Several more miles of solitary riding ensued before the first vacation cabins appeared. Still
hadn't seen a car today.
35 miles from the start I got to our small town and filled my bottles, before taking the county road the
last ten miles home. A favorite loop of mine this one, and a ride I've been missing since I sold the LHT last
fall. The 650A wheels on an old roadbike makes it possible again.
I used to ride across the cattle guards, no problem. Then I started wondering how a slightly loose
stem might change that experience to the worse..
The top.
Came from way down there at the end of the valley.
Early one morning last week a friend took this picture behind our cabin. The wildflowers are balsam root, and that's a wolf.

^ Wolves, bears.... no thanks, only wussie Ice cream type rides for me!
I went on a nice group ride on memorial day, 11 people, most from bikeforums. We rode about 30 miles through the rolling countryside and had ice cream along the way. I hope halfbent doesn't mind me posting a couple of his pictures over here.
I am in the upper left, in the maroon shirt sporting a cheese-tastic smile:
Afterwords, sitting around pretending to stretch:
I need to start remembering my camera!

Jan,I must politely disagree with you-Long, bumpy, rocky, rickety dirt mountain descents on an old road bike are probably my favorite thing ever.-Nick
Finally, after being loaned to me far far too long ago to admit by a way too patient BF's member, I finally got the San Marco Regal saddle mounted on the Gazelle A-Frame for a test ride. After riding the Rolls for a while, I've decided it's just not for me, and am hoping the Royal with it's slightly wider rear stance will be a better fit. And after the first 24mi, I'll have to say it's looking good so far for this saddle. I need to play with the camera less and do a harder ride on it next go around to be sure before really throwing the Rolls for Royal trade offer out there. Till then, here's a few photos from today's ride as I was playing with the camera:

I feel awful for him. I have anxiety as well, but mine comes in just not sleeping ever. At all. Long story. I wish I could help him. I know he's going to be an amazing father, and I cite so many reasons for that all the time, but I don't know how I can make him feel better while I'm over here freaking out all on my own.
I hate to see him so torn up and tired over this. Have any of you been in a similar situation? What did you do to make your man feel better or give him any kind of relief? I just want him to see what I see.

Since Oct 29, 2008
I've been all the way around the world more than a few times and worked in 32 countries. Travel is wonderful, it expands your thoughts and experiences. I still get itchy feet to hit the road again. The best part of going away though is coming home.
Good men I have met from all walks of life no matter where you go all want pretty much the same things. To live peacefully, to be accomplished at their work, to make a good life for their family and they believe in God or some higher being and that we did not get here by accident.
We come into this world naked, afraid and with nothing. We leave behind a short memory and a reputation. Our treasures on earth are just vapor; so says Solomon.
I claim to be an arch conservative but I have a little bit of libertarian streak in me. I leave other people alone and I expect them to do the same with me. I will be there in a minute to do all I can to help someone in need. I won't start a fight and never have but I'll do all I can to give much more than I get if anyone ever assails me and more than that if anyone ever lays a hand on one of my family.
I love this nation and the Constitution and the Ideals we once stood for but hate this government. What passes for campaign contributions here are really just bribes and would be a criminal violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act if it were done over seas.

InfoSpace and FAST Announce Partnership to Provide Carriers with New High-Powered, Integrated Mobile Search Solution

BARCELONA, Spain--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Fast Search & Transfer™ (OSEAX: FAST.OL) (FAST™), a leading developer of search technologies, and InfoSpace, Inc.

The two companies, with more than 20 years combined experience in the search industry, have deployed more white label mobile search solutions worldwide than any other provider.
"Personalized results enhance user satisfaction, increase purchases, increase traffic, and drive advertising revenue or any other business model deemed important by the mobile carrier."

Moreover, the companies will collaborate to develop superior storefront and WAP index functionality.
"Search is the most used and most profitable tool on the Internet. The FAST and InfoSpace partnership takes the search paradigm to mobile users to allow for controlling and monetizing each user interaction with a robust set of features, built on top of superior portal search and mobile web search," said John Markus Lervik, CEO of FAST. "Personalized results enhance user satisfaction, increase purchases, increase traffic, and drive advertising revenue or any other business model deemed important by the mobile carrier."
The partnership between FAST and InfoSpace typifies the exciting growth opportunities in the mobile search market, including personalized mobile search and targeted advertising. By 2011, eMarketer predicts brands will be spending nearly $5 billion on advertising, up from $421 million in 2006.

i've made some = didn't use a recipe, but started with bullion, crumbled ramen noodles [i tossed their flavoring but you could use it if you want], dried onions, instant mashed potatoes, some dehydrated veggies i bought from Frontier Herbs, all sorts of spices and just winged it by tasting – you could dry your own veggies if you have a dehydrator [or use your oven]and spice them to suit – then put it in a cup, pour boiling water on it, cover it [those cutsey cups w/the top/saucer thingies work real well for this] and let it sit for 2 or 3 minutes and ta daa, you have soup – something i haven't tried but i think would work well would be drying riced baked potatoes, leftover cooked veggies -you wouldn't want to use the ones cooked too much – but i think you could do peas, corn, broccoli, beans, diced beets, shredded carrots etc etc etc – let me know how it works for you!Reply
Check out Budget101.com. They have loads of soup mixes to make from scratch. Including the dehydrated type you mentioned.Hillbilly Housewife & Budget 101 are the only 2 sites I use for frugal food recipes and make your own mixes.Reply
I searched allrecipes website for "Soup mix" and they have quite a few. This one looked really good.
I make spinach dip using the veggie soup packet. I buy the Lipton brand which contains 2 packages for the same price as just one.Reply
Try to check out the book "Make a Mix" by Karine Eliason.Reply

Three years ago, back when the City Council actually had money to spend, Mayor Greg Nickels tried to get it to spend some $9 million of that money to establish a 311 service for Seattle. The previous December a windstorm had knocked out electricity to nearly half the city, and Nickels' argument was that a fancy new call center built just to handle incoming queries would better serve citizens, even in times of non-emergency. It was an argument he would lose.
Wired magazine just published a phenomenally interesting look at New York's 311 system. which has been in place for seven years and has fielded over 100 million calls. What it tells you about New Yorkers is something you already knew: they like to bitch. But what it also proves is that a sophisticated data-collection system that sorts the gripes and grumbles of millions of constituents could be the ultimate skeleton key for an incumbent politician.
This is not an original thought. But it is a pretty good one.
Sure, Mayor Mike McGinn may not have a fiscal pot to piss in. But imagine if he did. And imagine if he used said figurative pot to create a 311 call center before the next election.
McGinn would be able to anticipate every citizen complaint. He'd be like a pothole pre-cog. Or Mel Gibson in "What Women Want," except not racist and able to hear the innermost thoughts of both women and men.
I called the mayor's office today to see if 311 was anywhere on his legislative agenda but so far haven't heard back. I did this because it's what you do, and also because I like being laughed at by people in positions of power. (Imagined response: "Our boss gave the most important speech of his young political career off-the-cuff and you think he actually has an agenda? Like something...written down?! BAHAHAHAHAHAHA.")
I'll let you know what we hear.

Quincy Lou Melton Maggie Riggins gets serenaded consistently by a Caucasian Drake impersonator.
I had a big plan to hit Scarlet Tree karaoke this past Tuesday, but it almost didn't happen. The combination of an exhausting workday and a fat feast of take-out mechado (beef & vegetable stew in a tomato sauce + white rice) from the Family Time (Filipino) Restaurant had me passed out on the couch by seven. If not for an inspiring text I received from my buddy Lex ("if you guys are thinking of a Halloween costume how about we all go as Chilean miners all you need is a hard hat shirts off and dirt") at nine, I never would have been able snap to it.
Quincy Lou Melton Maggie Riggins gets serenaded consistently by a Caucasian Drake impersonator.
Karaoke was already in full swing by the time I got to the Tree at ten. I was still feeling a bit groggy from the nap so I decided to establish a buzz at the tequila bar next door, Casa Patron. I enjoyed a shot and a beer and got acquainted with the bartender and this guy eating soup. From where I was sitting I could see the Tree's singers performing through the windows. It looked like people were having a good time.
The Cazadores shot made me feel a bit uneasy. It was one of those shots that told me I was going to need two more. I was hoping to brainstorm a song plan before entering the Scarlet Tree but my mind was drawing blanks. I decided to check out what the singers were singing and take it from there. When I entered I saw my buddy Riggins (we'd made plans to meet but I was still iffy on if he would actually make it). We sat barside--a great angle for taking in everything.
It was clear night and there's a sweet view of the I-5 freeway pillars through the booze bottles on the other side of the window. The stage is set up in front of the tall windows along NE 65th side of the restaurant and it's elevated enough that it really feels like you're watching a show. My buddy Josh is the KJ, and this was his ninth Tuesday at the Tree. The place was only half full, but the people were all there to sing; Josh runs karaoke at like six other bars within a mile of there and has a following of crooners that hit every spot throughout the week. There were a few female performers, but the night was heavy with dudes.
I caught the beginning of the second rotation and saw Josh do something I'd never heard before, a four-song medley of Erasure. It was a total marathon because it didn't seem like they shaved down the songs that much, and by the time it was done he looked spent. He threw on "Best I Ever Had" by Drake to let the crowd (and himself) catch its breath, and I turned to Riggins and told him how much I loved that cut. He said he sings it to his cat, Maggie, all the time.
I had a pretty good night. Over the past few weeks I've been working at my local spots on messing with song keys and learned I only have to take it down one level (which is half a key) in order to hit the notes I want to hit. For my first number I stole one of my friend Cary's standards, "Lady" by The Little River Band. I'd heard her sing it so many times and always wanted to do it. I took the stage and it always feels cooler when you're standing above everybody. The song starts out kind of slow and I wasn't fully buzzed yet. But I could tell my voice was going to be right in the wheelhouse once I got to the peak of the song. Once I hit they verse "As I love you best...you're not like the rest," the passion hit me and I caught fire from then on. That is seriously one of the most fun songs to sing.
There were few screwball numbers done throughout the night. I hate comedy sung karaoke. A couple performed this dirty version of "Summer Lovin'." It was so bad it made me actually miss the original Grease version. I never thought I'd ever feel that way.
But the worst were a couple guys who did Tenacious D's "Fuck Her Hard." Don't get me wrong: I am a huge fan of the D. That song is hysterical when Jack Black sings it. I just don't understand what would motivate anyone else to do it. Who are they trying to impress? Definitely not chicks. And these guys always have a shit-eating grin on their faces like they're on a roll. Watching someone get up and sing that song is one of the douchiest things to witness on the karaoke stage.

You will then learn how to eavesdrop and intercept traffic on wireless networks, bypass intrusion detection systems, and attack web applications, as well as checking for open ports, performing data forensics, and much more. The book follows the logical approach of a penetration test from start to finish with many screenshots and illustrations that help to explain each tool in detail.

yeah the text thing is driving me nuts. every time i run any filters or convert doc. to different format the text gets blurry. i have not figured it out yet.
Nice map. It takes me back to my days playing Spelljammer AD&D.

In the class Parser (rev 680644) close to line 190 there is code:
// the value is an option else if (t.startsWith("-")) {
This line recognizes hyphen like -
But sometimes (when someone has to work with MS Word Docs) this hyphen - can be used instead of -.
So I would like to suggest just adding a simple piece of code like:
// the value is an option else if (t.startsWith("-") || t.startsWith("-")) {
or try to throw an exception like "Option expected not " or "unexpected argument".

The Ultimate Redundancy
There are a lot of well-known oxymorons, such as "jumbo shrimp" and the left's favorite "military intelligence."
Funny redunancies are less common, and I can't claim with great certainty that today's example is actually funny, but I can claim that it truly is the mother of all redundancies, the redundancy which all future redundancies strive to be as redundant as, the most glaringly obvious redundancy of all time.
It comes from today's news about developments in Syria, where "intensified violence" rumors of the Assad regime moving chemical weapons has even Hillary Clinton thinking that perhaps Assad is not a reformer.
And here it is, in all it's redundant glory:
U.N. pulls 'non-essential' Syria staff
If there is any part of the story that is actually funny, it's this: "Up to 25 of about 100 foreign staff could leave this week..." Seriously, somebody thinks 75 percent of the United Nations personnel in Syria are essential? As what, human shields?
