Nishita is a simple, minimally-styled photoblogging theme with a choice of dark or light color scheme—the muted design puts all the focus on your photos. Not only is this theme designed for photos, it loves big photos: the default layout is super-wide at 1024 pixels.
Theme Options
Theme options include two layout choices: "Photoblog" at 1024 pixels wide, or "Blog" at 768 pixels wide. The same form also allows choosing the dark or light color scheme.
Reduced Photoblog Look
For a reduced photoblog look, where you showcase one photo at a time, you could change your WordPress.com reading settings to show one post per page, and thus only one image will show on your front page. Your site visitors would then navigate to older photos by using the navigation links below.
Thumbnail Archives
This photo-loving theme also uses post thumbnails to show a small version of images on your archive pages. Out of the box, the theme will crop the image attached to the post and make a thumbnail for you. If you prefer to crop your own thumbnail—or use a different image—use the Featured Image tool to set the alternate thumbnail image.
Widgets and Sidebar
Love widgets? Use the three footer widget areas to keep your photos full-width and the sidebar hidden. You can also add widgets to the "Primary Sidebar" to make a sidebar appear next to the main column—otherwise the sidebar will remain hidden on all pages.
Custom Appearance
Customize Nishita even more with the custom background feature, a custom header image, and a custom menu.
Quick Specs (all measurements in pixels):
- The main column width is
1024for the Photoblog layout, and
768for the Blog layout.
- Header image size is
295(width, height).

Additional Information
More information about this loan
This loan is part of UGAFODE's program for clients who live in isolated rural areas with limited access to financial services. Uniquely, UGAFODE focuses its efforts on agricultural areas in Uganda that are over 50 km from their branches, providing loans to both groups and individual borrowers. The organization believes that the risk of offering services to remote clients is outweighed by the benefits to customers and their often underserved communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Earl's 633003 - Earl's Speed-Flex Hose
Earl's Speed-Flex Hose
The stiff extruded Teflon liner with tightly woven high-tensile stainless steel outer braid solves the brake pedal travel problem by eliminating line swell. This increases the firmness and feel of the brake pedal, which allows you to modulate brakes more efficiently. Compatible with alcohol, gas, hydrocarbon fuels, nitromethane, mineral and synthetic lubricants, and high-density fuel additives.
In the mid-1960's, Earl's pioneered the use of the armored flex hose of extruded teflon to solve the brake line expansion problem associated with the new disc brake systems. The stiffness of the teflon liner combined with the tightly woven high tensile stainless steel outer braid solved the pedal travel problem. By eliminating the line swell it also dramatically increased the firmess and feel of the brake pedal which allowed drivers to modulate the brakes more efficiently. Improved abrasion resistance and increased temperature capacity are secondary advantages.
For use with Steel Speed-Seal Hose Ends or Aluminum Speed-Seal Hose Ends ONLY.

Thanks for the great advice. I think I'll go with the "08 with a different sprocket and leave the rest alone. There are enough back roads here and if I do need the interstate, even the big Harleys keep there speed around 55-60 mph. I read a lot about letting the engine cool down while on long rides, do you just shut it down, or let it idle for a few minutes like we had to do with the old duce and half trucks in the military?

What Else Can You Do to Help Your Rivers?
Rivers are not only great for recreation, but they are the primary source of clean water for most Americans. Taking care of rivers is everyone's business – not only keeping trash and other pollution out of the river, but helping to manage how much is taken out. Here are some ways to help.
Conserve Water
Our nation's water supplies are under increasing stress from the needs of our growing population, development, energy production, irrigated agriculture, and the challenges brought by climate change. Here are 10 ways to help reduce the amount of water you use every day.
Save Energy and Save Water, Too
Energy and water use are tightly connected. We use energy to pump and treat drinking water and wastewater. And water is used in energy production, both in cooling water for many of today's power plants as well as in certain energy production, such as hydraulic fracturing ("fracking"). Discover ways to save energy, save water and save some money.
Keep Drugs and Personal Care Items Out
Pharmaceutical drugs are of particular concern because not only have they been found in surface waters, but they may also be present in our drinking water. In 2008, the Associated Press released a report that found that pharmaceuticals, hormones, and other organic wastewater compounds (OWCs) were found in the drinking water supplies for 24 metropolitan areas, affecting over 41 million people. Chronic exposure could lead to adverse health effects for people and aquatic organisms that are continuously exposed to them. Learn more about how pharmaceuticals are affecting your drinking water.

Riviera 43 Open FlybridgeBy Capt. Richard Thiel
It's All About the Boat
Riviera builds a boat that makes you forget about pods.
Over the last few years I've tested quite a few boats that were equipped with pod drives. Some were more successful than others, but in every case I found it impossible not to focus on the pod system and how it dictated both the boat's performance and accommodations. Whether they were IPS or Zeus, the pod drives not only dominated the boat, in some ways they actually defined it.
I knew someday pods would become so ubiquitous and widely accepted that I would get on a boat equipped with them, examine, test, and evaluate the vessel, and then add, "Oh, and by the way, this boat also has pod drives." At that point, I'd be able to declare that, at least for myself, pod drives had become just another accepted and ingrained onboard feature, like a chartplotter or a bow thruster, and I could again return to evaluating boats on their inherent features and performance.
That day arrived for me in May when I ran Riviera's new 43 Open Flybridge out of Sanctuary Cove, Australia. From the very moment that I approached her at the dock, I could see that she was different. Riviera cut its teeth on building real convertibles, boats designed for fishing that could also be cruised—today it offers six open-bridge and five enclosed-bridge models ranging from a 38 open to a 70 enclosed. I've been on every one of them—some for rather lengthy periods—and the minute I saw the 43, I knew she represented a major change in direction for the company. She'd turned the whole convertible concept on its ear because she was focused first on cruising and then on fishing.
Oh yes, the 43 had that unmistakable Riviera convertible look, but her hull was dark gray, not a color you'd likely see on a battlewagon. She also had a four-foot-deep swim platform that would make hauling a billfish through the starboard transom door a bit of a chore. More telling was her cockpit, at the aft end of which was a module containing a barbecue and sink, with stowage below, not a baitwell/prep station (although it is available). Yes, there was a teak sole, but it was optional, and there were 4'4"-long fishboxes port and starboard, but their gasketed hatches and lift-out liners meant they'd work well as dunnage boxes. (More stowage is available in 4'5" long side compartments and inside.) And finally, at the forward port end of the cockpit was that fishiest of features, mezzanine seating, from which you could watch baits. But considering that it was shaded, cushy, had a stereo remote, was flanked by stereo speakers, and the saloon window forward of it could flip open, the seat was just as well suited to lounging.
To sum it up: Riviera offers a host of options for the 43 that allow you to seriously fish it, but absent them, you have a very comfortable cruising boat.
Take the saloon. It's one step up from the cockpit and finished in leather and gloss cherry. With the galley forward and surrounded by glass, the main deck is all about entertaining and comfort. A starboard table extends to 4'7", and two halves of the port-side settee split and slide over to provide two more seats for the eight-person dining table. Each has stowage beneath, and there's an overhead, flip-down compartment obviously derived from a rod-stowage compartment above and to starboard but with sea rails so it can hold things like bedding and duffel bags. Another stowage area is fully forward and to starboard, where the optional lower station goes, and yet another is beneath the saloon sole where conventional inboard engines would normally be.
The bridge is, if anything, even less focused on sportfishing. Staggered helm chairs make it pretty difficult for a captain to face aft and watch the cockpit. But for cruisers, this space is pretty close to perfect. Sightlines are great all around, and there's plenty of seating, a dining table, and to port, a sink and fridge. Although this is one of Riviera's open-bridge models, an optional soft enclosure can make it sufficiently weather-tight so that you can easily heat and air condition it.
On the lower deck there's extra space because the IPS engines are so far aft. How it's been utilized can only be described as unique. Despite the presence of a full-beam midcabin, Riviera designates the V-berth as the master. The midcabin enjoys more floor space plus, like the forward cabin, it has a queen-size bed (but aligned athwartship). However, it does not have en suite facilities; they're just outside, in the lobby so that they can also function as the day head. What's really different is that this stateroom has a second bed along the starboard side, which could accommodate a child who doesn't want to sleep with siblings or just an unattached adult who doesn't demand privacy. Either way this berth brings the 43's sleeping capacity to five, although the Riviera Web site claims it to be six, apparently considering that second berth to be a double.
That Web site also features a lot of pictures of an attractive, casually attired couple lounging about and dining in various places on the 43. There are shots of the boat at anchor, underway, and towing an inflatable. There's not one of the boat being fished, even casually, so the message is pretty clear: this is primarily a cruising boat, and that marks her as different from her open-bridge sisterships and representative of a new course for Riviera, a course I suspect will appeal to a much wider audience.
Oh, by the way, did I mention the 43 is powered by IPS pod drives?

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) -- AJ McCarron nearly matched Johnny Manziel with four touchdown passes and Vinnie Sunseri returned an interception 73 yards for a score, sidestepping Johnny Football on the way to the end zone, as No. 1 Alabama paid back No. 6 Texas A&M with a 49-42 victory Saturday.
Alabama (2-0, 1-0 Southeastern Conference) spotted the Aggies (2-1, 0-1) a 14-0 lead, shades of last season when A&M jumped out to a 20-0 lead in Tuscaloosa on the way to victory that all but won the Heisman for Manziel.
McCarron and the Tide didn't take as long to respond this time, ripping off the next 35 points.
Manziel was his spectacular self, throwing for a career-high 464 yards and five TDs.
But Alabama's best defense was its offense. The Tide gained 568 yards and kept Manziel on the bench with a couple of long drives.

Looking for advice on wetsuit or dive skin for Cozumel dive trip. I have a Henderson 5mm AquaLock full wetsuit, hood & gloves. I just dove in 49 degree water (deep dive) and had no problems with being cold. I typically bake in my 5mm Henderson until I can get to cool waters. I know my 5mm full is going to be way to much for Cozumel trip. Id like to have full body protection (from stinging creatures) but dont necessarily want a full 3/2 wetsuit. I currently have a LavaCore short sleeve top. Looking for advice if you think I would be okay with adding a LavaCore Trilaminate Poly dive pants to my LavaCore top and if that may be enough for Cozumel. Id appreciate any advice you can provide.
i am 61" with a 34 inch waist. which measurement is more important when choosing a pant size?
Any time you purchase a neoprene product for your body the 2 most important measurements will be your waist and chest measurements followed by your height as a secondary measurement. You want the item to fit snug around the torso area to maintain the thin layer of water between your body and the material. In this case, of course chest measurement is not going to come into play but it remains a very good rule of thumb.
66" 225 lbs, who sells long lavacore pants that fit? Thanks
The most important measurements any time you purchase a wetsuit or drysuit using the manufacturer's sizing charts will always be your waist and chest/bust measurements. The suit needs to fit your torso correctly in order to do its job properly. Keep in mind there is no such thing as a comfortable wetsuit on the surface. You want it to be snug, but not cut off circulation to your extremities. The more snug it is, the thinner the layer of water your body is heating. If its too loose you will remain warm for awhile, but eventually your body won't be able to keep up with the greater amount of water flowing through the suit and you'll wind up getting cold faster. After that your height is a secondary measurement. The manufacturers realize that generally speaking your boots and gloves can overlap slightly short arms and legs, or the diver can push or roll up longer sleeves and/or arms if need be. Weight is a measurement the diver can usually ignore. It really has little to no bearing what so ever on the sizing and fit of your suit. The manufacturers do not take into account muscle being more dense than fat, so based simply on fitness levels 2 people can be the exact same size but quite different in weight. This measurement should only be used if the person is literally on the fence between 2 sizes in all categories.
I am 67" 270.... I am having a problem no fitting into a wetsuit because of no TALLS. I was wondering for basic scuba diving in warm water would LavaCore by Oceanic Triaminate Polytherm Dive pants work? I am assuming would need a 3x??? thank you Mike

CLEVELAND (AP) – LeBron James tells Sports Illustrated he will sign with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The NBA's biggest star made the announcement in a first-person essay published in Sports Illustrated, in stark contrast to his televised decision four years ago, for which he was heavily criticized.
During his time in Miami, James led a star-studded Heat team to two NBA championships and four Eastern Conference titles but Sports Illustrated' s banner headline "I'm Coming Home" explained his decision to go back to Cleveland.
"Before anyone ever cared where I would play basketball, I was a kid from Northeast Ohio. It's where I walked. It's where I ran. It's where I cried. It's where I bled. It holds a special place in my heart. People there have seen me grow up," James wrote.
"I sometimes feel like I'm their son. Their passion can be overwhelming. But it drives me. I want to give them hope when I can. I want to inspire them when I can. My relationship with Northeast Ohio is bigger than basketball. I didn't realize that four years ago. I do now."
— LeBron James (@KingJames) July 11, 2014
The Heat, Phoenix Suns, Houston Rockets, Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Lakers had also expressed interest in signing James, who is widely regarded as the best basketball player on the planet.
The frenzy over the 29-year-old forward's eventual landing spot was the biggest the NBA had seen since James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh all signed contracts to team up in Miami in 2010.
James, who was on the losing end of a humbling five-game defeat by the San Antonio Spurs in last month's NBA Finals, opted out of the final two years of his contract with Miami to become a free agent who could negotiate with any team.
Welcome Home @kingjames. I am excited for the fans and people of Cleveland and Ohio. No fans and people deserve a winner more than them…..
— Dan Gilbert (@cavsdan) July 11, 2014
"These past four years helped raise me into who I am. I became a better player and a better man," James, who grew up in Akron, Ohio, said about his time with the Heat.
"I will always think of Miami as my second home. Without the experiences I had there, I wouldn't be able to do what I'm doing today."
James, a 10-time NBA All-Star who was drafted first overall by Cleveland in 2003, has averaged 27.5 points, 7.2 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game in 11 NBA seasons.
YESSSSSSSS!! Couldn't be happier for my guy @KingJames and the @cavs #Cleveland
— Johnny Manziel (@JManziel2) July 11, 2014
His decision to rejoined the Cavs is expected to dramatically shift the balance of power in the NBA with bookmakers reacting swiftly to the news.
Cleveland, which has never won an NBA title in 44 years of existence, was listed as the 4-1 favorite to win next season's NBA while Miami blew out to odds of 50-1.

|Christmas a reminder of Ferguson's progress
|Written by Jes-c Brandt
"It's hard to believe where she was last year," Connie Ferguson commented as she reflected on her 20-year-old daughter Brittney's progress. In a time of year that's big on family, the Fergusons have spent this holiday season thinking about how different it will be from the previous year.
Last year Christmas marked three months since Brittney's accident. She was still at Craig Hospital in Denver, and their holiday celebration was arranged around hospital schedules and policies. In stark contrast, this Thanksgiving was spent in Holyoke with family, and Brittney even ate some turkey and potatoes and gravy.
Rance, Brittney's father, recalled at this time last year doctors thought Brittney was totally deaf, blind in her right eye and that her right ankle was fused. They predicted a bleak future without sound or complete vision, and walking was beyond what they could ever hope for. But in the year since then, Brittney has proven them wrong on all three counts.
It didn't take long to realize Brittney could hear, and she began following conversations in her room, looking from person to person as they talked. Now she listens and laughs as family and friends joke around with her. Communication is still tough, her parents noted, but they know she can hear, and that's a big step from where they were last Christmas.
Brittney's vision isn't what it used to be before the accident, but she certainly isn't blind in one eye. After discovering Brittney retained vision in both eyes, doctors still predicted she would lose sight in one. Connie explained that even when a person has sight in both eyes, if she doesn't use them both together, the brain will stop listening to one to prevent double vision.
Clearly, if the Fergusons have learned anything, it's to expect the unexpected. As of today, Brittney still has vision in both of her eyes. In fact, her family explained, she switches from seeing with both eyes or just one, depending on what she is looking at.
The most recent source of surprise for Brittney's family was news that her ankle was not fused, as they had previously been told. Full range of motion in the ankle brought the possibility of walking even closer. Shortly after receiving this good news, Brittney went in for surgery.
Surgery was completed six weeks ago on her right Achilles tendon, her left calf and several tendons in her feet. Since then she has had neon casts on both legs, but Monday, Dec. 21, she was scheduled to have them removed.
While she still had casts on her feet, Brittney made great progress walking. Much to her parents' delight, one night at the movies as Rance was preparing to take Brittney to her seat, Brittney started taking steps. It was like she was suddenly ready, they said. Since then, Brittney has continued taking steps with the help of her family.
The use of a walker with a harness has been helpful in Brittney's process of relearning to walk. Getting started is sometimes slow, the family noted, but Brittney gave an impressive demonstration of a few sturdy steps across the living room.
It's hard to tell how walking will go after the casts are removed, but the entire family has high hopes for strengthened muscles and continued progress. Rance commented they hope to have her walk from her room to the living room, with assistance, on Christmas morning. "And I think she can do it," he added with a smile.
While they are still in the early stages of walking, Brittney has become quite comfortable with the use of her wheelchair. She propels herself around the room, coordinating her feet and hands to get where she wants to go. In general, her movement has had phenomenal improvement over the year, and Brittney is now able to do a number of things for herself that she relied on others for last year.
Another area the Fergusons are excited to continue work on is communication. Since the accident Brittney hasn't spoken, and communication has been one of the biggest roadblocks. Over the last few months the family has worked on some basic signs for communication, including "yes," "no," "mom," "dad," "sister" and "I love you." Always big on humor, she also has a few playful signs she utilizes, such as "loser." A signed "Merry Christmas" greeting was just one more indication of Brittney's communication recovery.
Writing has been an additional means of communication the Fergusons have been working on. While it's sometimes difficult for Brittney to find the letters or words she wants to use, it's one more way for her to let people know what's going on inside her head. It's also reassuring, her mom said, to know that she can read.
Reading and writing can be tiring, so the easiest way to communicate is still by asking Brittney questions and allowing her to write or sign an answer. Regardless of the method, everyone feels a sense of satisfaction when they successfully talk with each other.
Of course, it's not all work and no play at the Ferguson house. Brittney's started playing tic-tac-toe and checkers with her friends and family. She's quite the character, and has a tendency to change the rules when they don't suit her, but even that is a sign that Brittney's still the same ornery girl she's always been. Also a lifelong dog-lover, she seems to be enjoying the company of their family dog Cooper.
As Rance, Connie and Amanda talked with Brittney and observed her actions, each took a moment to think about how much she has improved. Connie noted seeing her every day makes it easy to overlook the progress, but when they step back and look at last year's Christmas, they're amazed by how far she's come. There was a lot of crying and frustration last year, but Brittney's smile is bright for the season and this year the Fergusons are all prepared for a much happier holiday.
Finishing her interview, Brittney and her family used a combination of writing, asking and signing to relay a message to the city of Holyoke. "Merry Christmas and thank you. Love, Brittney."

Spring (gardening) is in the air
It's official. As of Wednesday, March 20, spring has arrived. That means enjoying the warm weather by getting outside and starting a new garden or changing up the landscape around the house.
And if you're a beginner, a veteran, or just trying to supplement your grocery bill by growing your tomatoes and squash in your backyard, here are some tips and ideas to keep in mind when shrugging off that winter dreariness.
Bob Prophit, general manager at King's Greenhouse in Stallings, offers up his expertise for people wanting to get growing this spring.
Getting a garden going has no shortage of benefits, and these days people get started for a number of reasons.
Sustainability, fresh produce, and stress release are all on that list, and even general health is a consideration.
"Gardening is good for you," said Prophit. "Just in general, especially if you work in an office all the time. I mean, that's a release, you get to go out and work. It's healthy, you're not sitting around, most gardeners are just happy; they're doing something."

The Sing Off 12/15/09: Chart Toppers and Guilty Pleasures
December 15, 2009 08:21 PM by Paulene Hinds
Tonight on The Sing Off, the excitement continued as six a cappella groups battled it out in front of America and the judges by singing chart toppers and guilty pleasures; songs from the 60′s, 70′s, 80′s, 90′s and today. One group will be eliminated from the competition tonight. Will Your favorite group go on or will they be singing their swan song this evening?
Host Nick Lachey let the crowd know what was at stake for the groups, a recording contract by Sony music and one hundred thousand dollars! He then introduced the six remaining groups and Ben Folds, Nicole Scherzinger and Shawn Stockman who were serving as judges tonight.
The first group up was The Beelzebubs singing Right Round. They were trying to put a dramatic flair on the hit tonight and they really did! I thought they were amazing! Ben Folds said that there was no novelty to the group and they really knew what they were doing. Nicole Scherzinger said that the group was sexy and loved their innovation. Shawn Stockman told the guys that they rocked it!
Up next was Noteworthy. This group couldn't cut it last night, but they made it through? They were singing Viva La Vida this evening and the group was hoping to make this an iconic performance. Their song was fantastic tonight. I bet they were thankful to have a second chance. Shawn said that he loved the fact that the group took a step and came out, warming it up a bit. Some parts were still off, but the group took the chance and he thought it worked. Ben said that the group had loads of charisma and he loved the bass singer. Nicole said other than liking the outfits, she thought that the group found a good key, but found the song a little too low.
Voices of Lee were singing No One tonight for America. The group planned to work together to make the magic happen. Their lead singer had a smooth melodic voice and the back up singing was in line with her. Nicole thought that Candace did a great job and the group held their own. Shawn thought that he felt the group tonight and really enjoyed the lead with the nice set in background and Ben thought that the group had grown and loved their arrangement with fantastic bass lines.
As the competition continued, the next group Nota were singing Down. They were ready to bring Puerto Rico to LA and felt that this performance needed to be 100%. Smokin' HOT! Shawn began by saying, "WOW!" and that the group was effortless. Ben commented that the show was getting very good now, especially with David's rock star voice and Nicole said that she didn't have any ear tweaking, loving their intro as she was taken somewhere else. This group is going to win if I can vote…sexy David!
The SoCals went to work practicing Already Gone for tonight. They were having difficulty finding texture with only eight voices and were really hoping to knock it out of the park. The group captured the emotion of the song, but their lead singer was not as strong as a few of the other groups. Shawn said that everyone has stepped their game up tonight and he was getting chills from the group. He thought that Kelly did her thing and sang from her gut, but the group could have used a bit more bass. Nicole loved the song and thought that Kelly had a beautiful voice. Ben agreed with the other judges and felt that the group nailed it adding shimmer to their performance.
The Barbershop soccer moms, Maxx Factor were singing next and their chart topping hit was Love Story. The group was having difficulty stepping out of the box, but they did their best with what they had. Barbershop is not my favorite, but the song was cool. Ben thought that they had invented their own style and Shawn said that this group was helping to make this show the hottest in the country. Nicole said that the ladies did their thing and were so tight with beautiful blends.
The big hits were done and now it was time for guilty pleasure songs on The Sing Off. The Beelzebubs were singing Come Sail Away and they took goofiness over the edge with their performance. Ben laughed and said he thought the song was good. Shawn continued to laugh and said that he didn't think the group should be embarrassed to do anything after singing that song. Nicole said that she went sailing away with them and loved the voices.
Noteworthy had given their take on modern rock and now they were singing a girly song Hold On. I didn't like the song as much as their first, but they had lots of energy. Nicole thought that Kelsey did a good job holding down her part and felt the groove in the second half. Ben liked to see the girls goof off, but wanted the girls to work harder. Shawn said that he liked the beat box, but he felt that the girls were missing some mellow tones.
Voices of Lee were singing the guilty pleasure song Freedom and they were hoping that the audience would chime in during their song tonight. I really enjoy the tones in this group! Ben thought that the group's singing was slick and was freaked out! Nicole said she felt a sense of freedom and was liberated with the big beautiful, warm gospel sound. Shawn said that the group pulled out another side of Voices of Lee, but they were missing the mid range in their song.
It was time to get out those bell bottoms and flip on those lava lamps as Nota sang Stayin' Alive. I am really fond of these guys…it doesn't hurt that I have a crush on their main man of the group! They really hit the high notes….stayin' alive honey. Shawn said that women love a falsetto and the group sounded hot! Nicole said that she was feeling it and it was real funky and Ben's thoughts were that the group knows who they are and even though they were a little sharp they were awesome.
The next team So Cals, took singing very seriously and they were singing Nothing Is Gonna Stop Us Now. They just wanted to rock everyone's faces off and have a good time with this song. They were a little too cheesy for my liking, but Ben thought that they had a great musical theater edge tonight. Shawn said that this song was all about melodrama and they brought it and Nicole said she loved it.
Maxx Factor was the final group of the evening and they came out singing Rehab. This song was awesome for the ladies and they really expressed the song well. Shawn thought the performance was good although he had heard them sing better. Nicole loved the personality of what the song brought out in the women and Ben said that he thought that the women had lost the song a little bit.
Six mega hits and six guilty pleasure songs were now done, who would be singing again and who would sing their swan song this evening?
Nick Lachey then announced that Nota and The Beelzebubs were moving on to tomorrow night along with Voices of Lee, The So Cals and Maxx Factor which meant that Note Worthy was heading home tonight! They sang their swan song Happy Ending!
Tomorrow night, the groups are rockin' melodies of the most famous songs of all time and the phone lines will be opened to America so they can vote for their favorites! Be sure to tune in tomorrow at 8 pm EST for another episode of The Sing Off on NBC.

Transferability and applicability of college credits. Transferability refers to the conditions under which the University accepts credits from other postsecondary institutions for inclusion in the student's record. Applicability of credit toward a degree refers to the prerogative of the academic divisions to count specific credit toward the fulfillment of a student's degree requirements.
- Collegiate work will be considered for transfer credit from postsecondary institutions that are fully accredited by regional accrediting associations and that offer the baccalaureate degree or associate's degree leading to the baccalaureate degree.
- Collegiate work from postsecondary institutions not fully accredited nor in candidacy status for accreditation from regional accrediting associations will be considered for transfer credit only when approval is recommended by the dean of the academic division of the University in which the student seeks to enroll. If the work is approved for transfer, the credit will be accepted on a provisional basis.
- Provisional credit will be applied as appropriate to the student's degree if an average of "C" or higher is earned for a year of academic work as a full-time student.
- In the case of the part-time student, a "C" average or higher must be earned for work completed from the time of initial enrollment through the semester (summer included) in which a total of at least 24 semester hours of work is completed at the University.
- A student who transfers within the University will have his or her provisional credit applied as appropriate to the curriculum of the division into which he or she transfers.
Applicability of credit toward the degree. Transfer credit will be applied as appropriate to a student's degree program. The authority to apply transferred credit toward degree requirements rests with the academic division of the student's intended major.
If a student chooses to transfer to another academic division within the University, credit previously earned at another postsecondary institution will be reevaluated and applied as appropriate to the student's new degree program.
Transfer students will have no more transfer credit applied to the degree than they would have been permitted to earn in the division of the University into which they are admitted.
A maximum of 60 semester hours of two-year college credit will be applied toward graduation requirements. If a student transfers less than 60 hours at the time of the initial enrollment at The University of Alabama, additional two-year college credit may be transferred later. Once 60 credit hours have been accumulated from all sources, no more than 12 additional semester hours may be transferred from a two-year college. The additional transfer courses must be equivalent to 100- or 200-level courses at The University of Alabama.
Transfer students who earn a grade of "D" on transferable courses may apply these courses to their degree requirements. All transferable coursework will be included in the student's grade point average, but only transfer courses with a grade of "D" or higher will be allowed to meet subject requirements and degree requirements.
Any transferable course with a grade of "D" or higher is acceptable at The University of Alabama with the exception of English composition and introductory math courses. Specific math courses where a "D" grade in transfer will NOT be accepted are as follows: MATH 100, MATH 103, MATH 110, MATH 112, MATH 113, and MATH 115.
The policies and procedures of UA's academic divisions for determining grade point average and applying transferred credit are discussed in each division's section of this catalog.

Pick up your secateurs, harvest has started! As every year, we started harvest with some whites. A small team of harvesters have been picking the Viognier from Coudoulet since Wednesday. It rained a bit last night so we had to stop harvesting today. Thankfully the Mistral has been blowing strong since this morning, as is it often does after rain and has blown all the clouds away and is drying out the grapes. This weekend we shall be resting! See you Monday!
"Very racy, with lots of red and black currant fruit backed by a great graphite spine. Offers nice hints of licorice, spice and iron on the finish." Drink now through 2012 –JM Smart Buys. 91 points, WineSpectator June 15, 2008
"Ripe, rich and racy Rhône red, with an ample core of black currant, fig paste, hoisin sauce and graphite, backed by dark coffee, mesquite and mineral notes on the long, structured finish." Drink now through 2011.—J.M. Smart Buys. 91 points, WineSpectator Sept.30, 2008
"Dark and smoky, with alluring cocoa powder, mesquite and bacon fat notes leading the way for rich black currant, melted licorice and espresso. The long, smoldering finish shows a nice wild side. Impressive now, but better with some cellaring. Grenache and Syrah." Drink now through 2014.—J.M. Highly Recommended. 93 points, WineSpectator Sept.30, 2008
Primium Familiae Vini has just conducted its annual meeting and has appointed Marc Perrin as its new president for one year. All the details are available on PFV website. Technorati Tags: pfv
all the details are here. Technorati Tags: gigondas, rhone
The historical terroir of Perrin's Gigondas, La Gille lies at the foot of the Dentelles de Montmirail on sandy soils. Considering that this unique soil brings the wines their finesse, this is the starting point to find the perfect food match. The morel also grows on sandy soils; an obvious match between these two products. The finesse found in both the Morel and the "La Gille" is the key to this match. Tender with silky tannins; the texture of this wine reminds us of veal. Our match is found: "Rib of veal with morels, cooked in a bread sealed clay pot"
Nice tasting of Beaucastel's wines in Singapore. Read the report here by the wine social media: jiuwine.com
A great article from Jancis Robinson in her excellent purple pages: 'This is the time of year when thousands of fine wine lovers usually place their orders for the latest vintage of red bordeaux offered en primeur, writing out large cheques to merchants in anticipation of wine that is still in cask and will be delivered from the cellars of Bordeaux two years hence. This year's offering however is of 2007 bordeaux. Our tasting notes on more than 500 reds and, much more exciting, whites can be found here. But 2007 is a curious vintage for red bordeaux, producing wines that look as though they will mature too fast to provide much excitement for investors, and so far there has not been a great deal of enthusiasm about the vintage. Here's a strong alternative suggestion for a widely-offered wine that costs much less than classed growth red Bordeaux, is already in bottle and should be shipped later this year when, if my tasting of it from cask in Châteauneuf du Pape is anything to go by, it should already provide some delicious drinking, although it should continue to improve for another four or five years or so at least. The blend of this Côtes du Rhône produced by the Perrin family of Ch de Beaucastel from 30 hectares of vines that don't qualify for the Châteauneuf appellation is 30% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre, 20% Syrah and 20% Cinsault and was just bursting with health and interest. The first three ingredients are of course the classic triumvirate of thesouthern Rhône but I think it may be the Cinsault portion that makes this wine so approachable in youth. It's an often under-estimated grape variety capable of oozing charm and fruit. "A wine to make you smile", I wrote when tasting a sample of pure Cinsault 2007 at Beaucastel. I made the white version my wine of the week back in January but make no apologies for revisiting Coudoulet this week. This is a wine with a great track record, as purple pagers on the members' forum have attested in this thread. The 2006 vintage was a real hit in the southern Rhône. The spicy, herby, complex style of southern Rhône wines is so easy to like. I really don't think you can go wrong by ordering a case of a dozen bottles of this beautifully balanced wine.'
Another step in our cultural approach around Perrin & Fils wines from the Southern Rhône Valley and the prestigious wines of Château de Beaucastel. Wines are invited to the table! Served to match our wines, two menus were elaborated by our Laurent Deconinck who was sent to Japan specially for the occasion. The event took place over 5 evenings at the Michelin starred restaurant "Signature" directed by Olivier Rodriguez on the 37th floor of the breathtaking Mandarin Hotel in Tokyo. A wonderful opportunity for wine lovers to come and try some food and wine matches. This series of events ended with a sumptuous Gala where truffle based dishes were served and some exceptional wines were served by Mr Kamo, Chef Sommelier at the Mandarin: - Château de Beaucastel Red 1990 served with a roast lamb cooked with truffle from Provence - Château de Beaucastel Red 1998 served with mushroom Ravioles, truffle shavings and chestnut crumbs - Château de Beaucastel 2001 served with crispy piglet - Château de Beaucastel white, Roussanne Vieilles Vignes 1990 served with roasted lobster in Argan oil - Château de Beaucastel, Magnums of Hommage à Jacques Perrin 1995 served with Foie gras partridge and black truffle of course! An unforgettable event, a big thank you to all the team!
In Beaucastel we use all the 13 grapes varieties which are allowed in Chateauneuf du Pape. Fabrice Langlois, our sommelier, explains their specificities in the final blend. Thanks to VINOTV.fr for this video.
... at the America wine blog awards. Congratulations Jason for this well-deserved trophy. Tablas creek blog is indeed great, well-written and definitely worth reading! Technorati Tags: wine
The Perrin brothers, who own the Châteauneuf-du-Pape estate Château de Beaucastel, are very much stars of the appellation. But as prices for Châteauneuf creep upward, it pays to look at the brothers' Coudoulet de Beaucastel, especially in the terrific 2005 vintage. The Coudoulet vineyard is just outside the borders of the appellation, so it qualifies only as Côtes-du-Rhône. But what a Côtes-du-Rhône! Made from a blend of 30% Mourvèdre and about the same of Grenache with 20% each Syrah and Cinsault (all cultivated organically), it's rich and spicy, with a scent of wild thyme and red, red fruit, it's drinking beautifully now, but it can also be aged 10 years or more. And it's vibrant enough to make a great showing against grilled chops, roast leg of lamb, or, right now, braised lamb shanks with beans and herbs. --S. Irene Virbila Los Angeles Times; Feb 27 2008 Technorati Tags: beaucastel, chateauneuf, rhone

Got into the basin about 4 pm last night and found a bruiser! Closed the distance from about 3 miles out and ended up on an adjacent ridge with wind in our face not 200 yards from him. Everything went absolutely perfect! I let my bro in law fire the first round and he rushed his shot and missed. The buck ran up hill a bit and stopped so I took the follow up shot guessing him about 300-350 after his first dash. Settled my 300 crosshair on his spine and let er rip. I MISSED!! He bolted. I ranged where he was and he was only 220. I completely underestimated the incline of the mountain he was on. Even though he ran a bit after my brother shot it was so steep that he gained very little yardage on us. Hard hard lesson learned!! Range twice shoot once! We both drug our tails out of that basin last night. With minimal options we decided to glass the next basin over to try and relocate him this morning. On a whim at daybreak I swung the spotter to the basin we hunted last night and he was just feeding over the top. Still in the same basin!! Unfortunately some other hunters heard our shot last night and decided to scope out the basin this morning. I watched them from a mile or so out with their bushnell binos, blue jeans and jansport backpacks they never had a chance to see him. Were heading back in there super early this afternoon to try and locate him. Dinners are running low so hopefully we have backstrap for dinner!!

I like the new Zimbra Desktop and have so far only noticed one problem:
When sending email from any of my AOL accounts, a copy of message is not being saved to the sent folder. I know the messages are getting to their destination because I've tested this by sending messages to myself; but a copy is not being saved to the sent folder. GMAIL accounts are fine -- this is specifically noticed only with AOL accounts.
Having the message saved to my sent folder not only verifies for me that the message was sent, but also allows me to save a copy for myself.
Is this a known bug in the program?

they're going out
you seem like the big mentor around here.
I really do feel like you want to smack me for calling you a mentor too.
You do give off a Coxish vibe.
then my life is complete. i can just leave my car at the red light.
Fullmetal actually does come off a lot like JD if JD was less quirky and more angry.
I think he's more of a chilled out Cox.
fullmetal doesn not seem cox like at all ???
without a doubt.
But you're also an awkward querky kind of guy that seeks someone to be his own mentor in lights.
I was making a stretch for comparisons.
i really don't see it though :(
really if you could give me an example i would go "oh i see what you mean" but i don't remember any instance of that happening.
That last one's made the elastic broke :(
i've asked devil and god to mentor me? about what? when? i don't think i've asked any forumite for mentorship.
No, my point was you seem to need a mentor
And I admited I was stretching things to make arguments
fullmetal is a confused, misguided soul in a cold world he struggles to understand
Like Snoop Dog Resident :(
FM needs a mentor about as much as I need a punch in the face. Take that as you will

Failed Earmark Culture Should Not Return
Promoted from the diaries. The 2010 election spurred hundreds of Americans to call for a change in the direction our nation was taking.

WHEELING - The Wheeling Nailers are coming off a four-game week in which they captured just three of a possible eight points. But it's the way they lost that has players and coaches alike shaking their head.
During that stretch, Nailers goaltenders Mike Condon and Eric Hartzell played two games each, combining for a 1.98 goals-against average and a robust .938 save percentage. If only a couple of those power-play chances hadn't gone by the wayside.
In a nutshell, a man advantage that has converted just once in 33 chances is the primary culprit for the team's 3-5-1 start to the season.
''It is hurting us,'' Wheeling coach Clark Donatelli acknowledged Tuesday following an optional skate at WesBanco Arena. ''If we score a couple times on the power play our record is obviously different.''
It's true.
The Nailers have lost all but one of their games by two goals are less, meaning one here or one there is the difference between being near the bottom of the Atlantic Division, or atop it. The defense has been solid, for the most part.
''We've faced a bunch of different penalty kills and we should be scoring, so it's on us right now,'' forward Zack Torquato said. ''We need to have more end-zone time. We were just watching some (film) and we need to work on getting pucks in and on our puck retrieval.
''When it comes, it's going to come in bunches.''
The general consensus is that it's only a matter of time before things start clicking. Though most haven't done it at this level, there are several players who have shown a penchant for finding the back of the net in their careers.
''I feel like we have the right guys on this team to be able to put it in, so we just tweak a couple of things and figure it out,'' Torquato said. ''Our defense and goalies are playing really well, so it's on the forwards right now.
''We've got to give our goalies some help.''
Scrunched Schedule
After playing all of three games in the opening month, business has certainly increased. The Nailers follow up last week's four games in five days with a 3-in-3 this weekend - all against Elmira.
The Jackals reside in the basement of the Atlantic Division, one point behind Wheeling. The clubs will play Thursday in Wheeling, travel to Elmira on Friday and return to WesBanco Arena on Saturday.
Don't worry. That type of scheduling doesn't make sense to anyone.
''We've got them for three games starting here at home, and we know what we're up against with them,'' Donatelli said. ''I like the way we're playing. We're working hard, we're competing and finishing our checks and we're a tough team to play against.
''The puck will go in the net.''
The teams have met only once this season, a 3-2 Nailers victory in the season opener in Wheeling.

|Dragons grab first win over Sedgwick County
|Written by Chris Lee
A busy week ended on a good note for the Holyoke Dragons.
Coach Scott Dille was very pleased as the Dragons were able to capture a win over Sedgwick County Saturday, Dec. 15.
The win was the first for the Dragons this year and they enter the holiday break with a 1-3 record.
"It was great," Dille said. "I think it would've been a real long break for everybody if we would be sitting without a win."
The coach said the kids have been working hard and it's nice to see them rewarded for that extra effort.
After a sluggish start, the Dragons hit the court in the second half and played ball. Dille said he was proud of the adjustments the team made in the second half.
Dille felt the offense moved the ball the best it has all season during the second half against the Cougars.
Holyoke held a slim 16-14 lead heading into the second quarter. Sedgwick County poured it on in the second outscoring the Dragons 23-13 to take a 37-29 lead into the locker room.
After some adjustments, the Dragons took control. Dille felt they crashed the boards better and slowed the dribble penetration from Sedgwick County during the second half.
Holyoke tied the game at 53 at the end of the third stanza. In nail-biting fashion, Holyoke squeezed out the three-point, 70-67 win after outscoring their neighbors to the north 17-14 in the final quarter.
At the free throw line, Holyoke finished 22-41. Dille said any time a team shoots 41 free throws, they should be able to come away with a win. Had the Dragons hit a few more, they would've been able to breathe a bit easier down the stretch.
Logan Tharp led the team from the charity stripe going 13-26. Dille said the junior was getting pounded during many of his dribble penetrations which sent him to the line a bunch throughout the game.
Dille said the team was scheduled to practice all of this week and will take next week off during the Christmas break.
The coach hopes the win over Sedgwick County will keep the team hungry and in a working mood over the break.
Holyoke will host Chase County, Neb. Friday, Jan. 4 with games beginning at 4 p.m.

Love My TKDK x HK Bag
This bag came just as described. It's the perfect size for traveling or those times when you have a lot to carry. The design has a lot of favorite characters from both Sanrio and Tokidoki. Super cute!
i LOVE this bag
im in love with this bag. after i seen it in store, i HAD to have it. i love the collabo, really one of a kind. nice size tote.
Pretty nice handbag
I really like this Sanrio Tokidoki collaboration handbag! Good size tote! Only thing I don't like is the quality looks a little cheaper than previous Sanrio Tokidoki handbags. Should be a little nicer for $100.
Toki doki sanrio characters shoulder tote bag
I love the collaboration! I look forward to the next collaboration! Love the purse! Great size for me and I like the pockets on the inside!
locelyy tokidoki
i'm not a huge fan of pink, but it goes so well with the purse . i love the size & thr pockets inside . it's the perfect fit for me ! i put all my neccessities in it & still got more room for more stuff .
Adorable but HK was cut off
It's a nice bag, the only problem is that the pattern of the characters varies depending on the purse. I guess the material/fabric is not always cut the same way. I was mainly interested in the hello kitty as Sandy character, and mine was cut off unfortunately.
Comfortable and spacious bag
I really love the print of this Tokidoki x Sanrio collaboration. Fits snuggly on shoulder when worn. A good sized bag to wear out. Love the keychain that is attached to the bag. Has some pockets where you can place wallet or phone. You will definitely get attention for wearing this out. I would suggest getting this style of bag from the tokidoki x sanrio line.
Great Bag
This bag is the perfect for all of my stuff. Absolutely love the charms that come with it too.
just ok
Just ok, too large, but small bag looked super cheap with the beige/tan parts.
Pretty awesome!
Decent sized, and totally cute. Loved the pockets on the inside. :)

Thursday Renovation Report
Our chairs and desks are only slightly shaking despite the massive construction taking place at the stadium Thursday. There are several sets of crews working all around Kauffman and most of them have the jack hammers going at full speed. Here's a brief rundown and some photos of what's happening out here. Keeping safety in mind – which we always are doing – we could only get so close to snap our photos.
One of the spiral ramps along the third base side is coming down. There hasn't been a big blast as of lunchtime on Thursday, but it is scheduled to be completely demolished soon. Right now, construction workers are removing the concrete that connects the ramp to the concourse.
Workers have been up on the Crown Scoreboard all day in preparation for its removal. You may be able to see from the picture that the screen is slowly getting dismantled.
They have demolished the left field concession stands and are "jack hammering" through some concrete in the Dugout Plaza level along the first base side.
We should have a photo gallery of the renovation progress on royals.com shortly. Sounds like the web cameras will be installed by the end of the month.

The official R.I.P. to the Crown scoreboard.
Interesting! So they basically "gut" the scoreboard before taking it down? And they're taking out those speakers it looks like, were they even used anymore? I remember straining to hear those speakers and how the wind would blow the sound around before they installed the new speakers all over the stadium.

Nature provides the foundation for the raw materials and processes needed for industrial production, commerce and trade. Today, companies are facing many nature-related challenges including water scarcity, climate change, over-exploitation of natural resources and pollution, all of which can threaten their future viability. At the same time, a company's 'licence to operate' in a particular country or gaining access to global markets increasingly depends on sound environmental credentials.
With business seen by many as an important player in nature conservation, IUCN is working with companies from large multinationals like Holcim, Shell, Rio Tinto, TATA, and Kuoni, to small, emerging enterprises in developing countries, encouraging them to adopt measures that reduce their environmental impact. It also shows how business can make a positive contribution to biodiversity, ecosystems and the services they provide. By working with industry leaders to generate positive change, it is hoped others in the field will follow suit.
Through various studies and on-the-ground experience, IUCN helps companies demonstrate that conserving biodiversity makes good business sense: Companies can increase their revenue by responding to increased consumer demand for responsible products, obtain the license to operate by addressing civil society's concerns, make savings by using natural resources more efficiently, and improve their access to capital. All these benefits are clearly reflected in a company's bottom line.
More and more companies are making money from nature's services in sectors such as nature-based tourism, natural health products, agriculture, and the food industry. IUCN supports businesses of all sizes in implementing good practice, ensuring that their use of biodiversity is sustainable. It aims to raise biodiversity performance standards across different sectors of the economy.
IUCN also helps find solutions for specific conservation problems that industry faces in their operations. Examples include the establishment of a scientific panel to advise on the impacts of oil and gas production on a threatened whale species; the relocation of a soda ash plant to protect Lake Natron in Kenya; and in Ghana, collaboration with Unilever to develop a sustainable alternative to palm oil.
Our work on business and biodiversity is part of IUCN's broader priority area of 'greening the world economy'. Through this approach, IUCN helps decision makers reform economic policies and markets to better support nature conservation. It also works to ensure that the impacts of economic decisions, trade and investment on biodiversity are properly addressed and better managed.
This month we take a look at some of IUCN's work on greening business and the economy, some of the challenges we face and the results that we're seeing. Listen to interviews with members of our team, read about our projects and test your knowledge with our quiz.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The bartender working the private fundraiser where Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney made his comments about "47 percent" of Americans says he didn't make the secret recording as a political partisan.
In his first public interview, Scott Prouty tells MSNBC's Ed Schultz that he lost sleep and struggled for weeks before deciding to release the recording to the magazine Mother Jones. But Prouty says he thought it was important that people heard Romney and knew what he was really thinking.
In the video, Romney tells donors paying $50,000 apiece that 47 percent of Americans are dependent on government, see themselves as victims and believe the government has a responsibility to care for them.
Romney's critics used the video to argue that he was out of touch with average Americans.

WITN's Dave Jordan emceed the 46th annual Eastern North Carolina Vocational Center banquet Thursday night. It was a night of inspiration to remember.
As the non-profit ECVC says, it allows people's abilities to outshine their disabilities. Thursday night, companies from all over the east that not only support but hire many of the disabled workers from ECVC- celebrated the drive and determination those workers show while on the job. Tony Deblois, a blind, autistic pianist with savant syndrome entertained guests with beautiful music. He says he has memorized more than 8-thousand pieces. Jessica Cox was the guest speaker. She was born without arms and shared her story about not letting that stop her from getting her pilot's license- or anything else for that matter. She reminded everyone- a disability doesn't mean you cant live your life to the fullest.
"I got my pilots license about 3 years ago. I learned how to drive a normal vehicle, so I drive an unmodified vehicle. I have a black belt in taekwondo. Actually I have 2 black belts. So I've earned a second degree black belt in taekwondo and I've done a lot that probably most people wouldn't even imagine someone without arms could do," said Cox.
"They have what we consider true disability, but they do a lot of things that most of us can't do," said marketing director Susan Daughtry.
The ECVC provides job training and employment services for about 300 people with disabilities each year in Pitt and surrounding counties.
ECVC is holding its 46th anniversary banquet tonight in Greenville at Rock Springs Center.
The banquet is designed to celebrate the "abilities of persons with disabilities," according to ECVC CEO Daneel le Roux.
ECVC stands for Eastern Carolina Vocational Center. It's a private, non-profit company that helps people with disabilities secure jobs.
ECVC has won multiple awards for its efforts.
The guest speaker at tonight's event is Jessica Cox. She was born without arms, and her goal is to help people reconnect with their inner strength and aptitude. Cox is a scuba diver, pilot, surfer and black belt.
The guest entertainer is Tony DeBlois. DeBlois is blind, autistic and has Savant syndrome. He is a gifted musician and singer. His story has been featured in a TV movie.
WITN is a proud sponsor of tonight's banquet, which is being emceed by Dave Jordan.
We'll have more on the event tonight on WITN News at 11 p.m.
