text: I have had a similar experience to Dahon.Steve and have quit my meds. I have a long history of asthma and spent a good deal of time in an oxygen tent when I was a young lad. It pretty much went away when I reached puberty, but came back when I was an adult. When I was in my last year of university and under a lot of stress, my asthma was getting worse by the month and I was on a salbutamol inhaler and on steroids. After I finished university I moved to Toronto and the day I arrived my asthma stopped. Havent had any major problems with it for about 12 years or so and my inhailer will expire before I use it up. If I do have an asthma attack, it is when I am exercising in the cold and I will take one puff from my inhaler and it prevents that attack.

I made this dish at my daughter's house and used what she had in the cupboards. Normally I would use fresh garlic, fresh diced onions & jalapenos. You can also add spinach or fresh basil leaves & Italian season for a different taste. I used only 2- 3 Tbsp. of the jalapenos and it was pretty spicy, so depends on how spicy you like it!! Leave out jalapenos for the children.
Me and my husband loved this recipe. I agree with the other reviewers- the peppers made the recipe a little too hot for my taste but I will make again-leaving out the peppers.
very time consuming to make, lots of different steps. jalepenos were a little too much, but overall it was a successful good tasting dish.
Very different and quite tasty.I didn`t use jalipinos though.I used red chili peppers.

Monter surveys the governmental records of Europe's thirty women monarchsthe famous (Mary Stuart, Elizabeth I, Catherine the Great) as well as the obscure (Charlotte of Cyprus, Isabel Clara Eugenia of the Netherlands)describing how each of them achieved sovereign authority, wielded it, and (more often than men) abandoned it.

Enjoy panoramic views of all of Florence from the bedroom and a spacious terrace for basking in the Tuscan sun from a central, deluxe apartment.
This amazingly sun filled apartment is at the top of a Renaissance palazzo that faces the gallery of the Ufizzi gallery, the most famous museum in Florence, across the Arno river.
The building blends with its Renaissance-age neighbors with grey stone, pietra serena, accenting its classical proportions. The building is locked and has a doorman during business hours.
There are a few steps from the street to the level of the elevator which takes you all the way to the floor below the Torella apartment.The staircase, 18 steps, is beautifully painted and leads past a coat closet to the main level of the apartment.The expansive, private terrace is the highlight of the main level. It faces uphill and from there you can see across the river to Santa Croce, Ponte alle Grazie, San Miniato and Piazzale Michelangelo with its beautiful views. A garden in the summer, the terrace has a table and chairs for dining and enjoying the sun and views.
From the terrace, step into a charming room that has a full height window and door on its terrace side. There is a glass-topped table with two chairs, a bench and shelf unit in this room. A pass through window opens onto the kitchen.Three steps from this dining room leads into the living room with sofa, chair, credenza with television. The credenza contains the dishes and silver ware as well as the microwave. Alongside the credenza is also the refrigerator/freezer.
The kitchen is small, but has everything for preparing meals: two burner electric range, sink, coffee pot, drip coffee maker, electric tea kettle, pots, pans, knives, utensils...The bathroom has a shower, toilet, bidet, sink and washing machine. It has an independent heating unit.The bedroom is accessed up a narrow staircase that rises from the living room. There are 19 steps that are not wide, about 19 inches. Under the steps is the clothes closet and a small closet that holds the vacuum, iron and board.
If the terrace was not enough for views and light, the bedroom may even be more wonderful. A room built on top of the building, the bedroom has an arched window in each wall with a memorable view from each. The bed is a queen. If you stay up late, maybe even just enjoying the view, you can close the light-blocking drapes so you do not have to rise with the sun.TripAdvisor property ID 2428530 ...Read more

"What a location!"
We spent a great week in Florence at this unique apartment. The location is ideal: walking distance to everything, and yet out of the city center bustle. And the views in all directions from this top floor apartment: fantastic, especially at sunset and at night.
As others have pointed out, residents of this apartment must navigate a flight of stairs to get from the elevator to the apartment, and another flight of stairs to get up to the bedroom. We wouldn't recommend it for people with mobility problems...but the space and the views make it well worth it if you don't mind the extra climb. Christiana our greeter was friendly and thorough, and very accommodating to our need for a late check out.
Two recommendations for nearby activities in the Oltrarno area: take in a light dinner and wine tasting at the enoteca Le Volpi e l'Uva, and (if you're a music lover) an opera performance at St. Mark's English Church. Both are a quick 10-minute walk from Torella (longer if you stop for gelato on your way home!).

"Perfect Terrace-Fabulous Views-Charm-Torella Apartment"
Those views were spectacular. I have been to Florence half a dozen times and I wanted to give my wife a stunning first look at the city, a real wow factor. We were met downstairs after a harrowing trip and the greeter was wonderful. Just a note, the two flights of steps could be a challenge if you aren't fit. When we walked thru the apartment we were delighted, the deck was spectacular. Then, upstairs in the tower bedroom, my wife looked out the window and practically shouted "WOW". I couldn't have scripted it any better. That tower bedroom was wonderful. A note, because I'm a tall man, I had to be careful of bumping my head going down stairs and in the kitchen. We really enjoyed eating outside, it was great. As usual in Italy, the electrical system is underpowered and we kept tripping the circuitbreaker. It was great; we loved it.

Not only does the Torella's tower bedroom have a beautiful view of Florence, it is, as I said to my companion more than once, surely one of the most beautiful views in the world. We loved our stay at the Torella - - it was a magical time in a perfect setting. Thank you!

"Florence Fantasy"
This was our first trip to Florence and we chose this apartment because it seemed like the perfect place. We were not disappointed. The location was incredible - easy walking distance to the places we wanted to visit and the views!! The apartment had everything we needed and was extremely comfortable. It was close to shops, groceries, restaurants, gelato(!)so we did not have far to go for things we needed. Our greeter met us as scheduled (even though we didn't know our arrival time until the week before), was friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful in letting us know how to operate things and where to go for what we needed. We would definitely stay in Torella again.

"Perfect stay in Florence!"
Just spent two wonderful weeks in the Torrella apartment rented through Italy Perfect! The apartment was exactly as represented on the website...small, but adorable! We did not plan to cook while there and instead enjoyed many wonderful restaurants all within walking distance, but we did enjoy having breakfast in the dining area and drinks on the terrace every afternoon, The bedroom in the turret and the views from the porch were even better than we expected! All of our dealings with Italy Perfect were a breeze and the greeter/contact person in Florence was a delight. Everyone even handled a bit of a crazy crisis that we had with humor and professionalism both! Hope to return soon!

"Torella is perfect"
We stayed in Torella for a week in april and it could not have been better. The booking process was simple and the information provided by Italy Perfect was very helpful and thorough. Our greeter met us at the apartment and could not have been more helpful. It is a cozy apartment on the top floor of a very nice building. The lift makes quick work of the trip to the top and the small flight of stairs was easy enough to negotiate. The bathroom and kitchen are on the small side but the connecting window from the kitchen to the dining area was convenient. The living area is comfy and the TV is nice although we never actually turned it on. Internet is easy to use and quick enough to keep everyone at home updated with photos. The bedroom is above the living area and is incredibly beautiful. You have 4 huge windows looking out over Florence in every direction. I don't think there is a better view anywhere in Florence. Then there is patio where we spent the majority of our time. It's wonderful with fantastic views of the neighborhood below and beautiful skies. It's also a great place to listen to all the church bells ringing.
The location is perfect. Ponte Vecchio is about 1 block away as well as the market. We used the little market almost daily to buy simple things for dinner that we could enjoy on the patio. Cantina del Gelato is a few doors down from the building so you're never far from world class gelato. Lungarno 23 is also a few doors down from the building and has a great burger menu if you're craving that sort of thing. Everything in Florence seems to be no more than 20 minutes away by foot and we had some of our best times just walking through the neighborhood around the apartment.
If you are travelling as a couple I can't think of a better place to spend your time in Florence.

"Florence Perfect! June 2011"
Loved this apartment!
The views from the bedroom are sublime. It is a dream.
So enjoyed having my morning coffee and evening wine on the terrace.
The location could not be better-quiet, yet an immersive experience. You really feel that you are a part of the fabric of Florence.
Highly recommend any of the tours by artViva. The office is an easy walking distance from the apartment, and all of the tours originate there.
We will be back and we will request the same apartment!

"Great Oltrarno apartment near Ponte Vecchio"
We were met by Cristiana at the front of the Palazzo when our cab arrived. She was very nice and showed us everything in the apartment, answered all our questions and offered up some restaurant tips. The apartment is exactly as advertised; clean, quiet and well appointed with a lovely terrace and fantastic views from the bedroom. Everything worked well and the airconditioner cooled the room very effectively and quickly. The kitchen is small but sufficient for preparing breakfast. The stair up to the bedroom is a bit narrow but presented no problem. There was an iron and ironing board, a washing machine and a drying rack which worked great on the terrace. Internet worked fine.
The location is fantastic, just a 1-2 minute walk to Ponte Vecchio, very close to Pitti Palace and a short walk to the main sites on the other side of the river. It's a nice, perhaps 15 minute walk to the main train station (we day-tripped to Pisa). Nearby Museo Bardini is a little known gem. Buy Uffizi tickets in advance!
There is a great little grocery store very close by the apartment (about 1 minute walk). There are many Oltrarno restaurants worth checking out; we only crossed the river for dinner once. Borgo San Iacopo has several trattorie that we visited.
The information packet provided by Italy Perfect was the most extensive, complete set of information I've ever received in advance of visiting a rental apartment, anywhere.
I would return to this apartment and would recommend to friends.
"Torella - perfect location in Florence"
The Torella apartment in Florence was in a perfect location !! It's right near the Ponte Vecchio, and just across the arno from the Ufffizi.
There's a nice supermarket close by, and several lovely restaurants and cafes.
And there are a wide variety of shops nearby for leather and artisan goods.
The top floor deck afforded a splendid view of Florence.
Very pleasant accommodations. Again -- the location is superb.

"Great apartment in a great location"
The Torella apartment was amazing. It was on the top floor of a building along the arno River, facing the Uffizi Gallery. Every window in the bedroom had a wonderful view of the city. The apartment's location was an easy starting point to walk to any location in central Florence. Every day for two weeks, we walked across Ponte Vecchio to begin our journeys into the city. The Uffizi was only 5 minutes away by foot. There was a great grocery store around the corner from us. They seemed to have fresh bread almost every hour. The apartment's kitchen met all our needs, including the multiple coffee makers. Our favorite was the Italian coffee maker. We ended up buying two for back home. The apartment was perfect for us. It was always very quiet. The aC was a blessing for our two weeks in July. It was like diving into a swimming pool after being in town for the day. The washer worked perfectly. There were more than 8 settings that determined how long you wanted the wash cycle to last. For drying, there were at least 30 hangers to use, which were easy to use on the balcony. The TV had cable television with European and american stations. The internet connection worked very fast. The building's doorman was very nice. Overall, a great experience. We were only a few buildings away from where they filmed room with a view!

Next round of UN-backed talks on Western Sahara slated for next week
|UN News Service
|Publication Date
|14 July 2011
|Cite as
|UN News Service, Next round of UN-backed talks on Western Sahara slated for next week, 14 July 2011, available at: http://www.refworld.org/docid/4e4cc04a2.html [accessed 30 May 2016]
|This is not a UNHCR publication. UNHCR is not responsible for, nor does it necessarily endorse, its content. Any views expressed are solely those of the author or publisher and do not necessarily reflect those of UNHCR, the United Nations or its Member States.
The talks, scheduled for 19 to 21 July, are taking place at the invitation of the Personal Envoy of the Secretary-General for Western Sahara, Christopher Ross, and will also include representatives of the two neighbouring States, Algeria and Mauritania.
The UN has been involved in efforts to find a settlement in Western Sahara since 1976, when fighting broke out between Morocco and the Frente Polisario after the Spanish colonial administration of the territory ended.
Morocco has presented a plan for autonomy while the position of the Frente Polisario is that the territory's final status should be decided in a referendum on self-determination that includes independence as an option.
"During the upcoming talks, the parties will, as previously agreed, further deepen their discussion of their respective proposals on a settlement, including the issue of the electoral corps and mechanisms for self-determination," according to the announcement issued by the UN.
They will also further discuss the new ideas put forward by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in a report issued earlier this year, and have the opportunity to review the status of confidence-building measures, continue their discussion on de-mining and engage in a preliminary examination of the topic of natural resources.
The last round of informal talks was held at the beginning of June, also in New York.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly has shaken up his staff following the departures of running backs coach Tim Hinton and offensive line coach Ed Warinner.
Chuck Martin, who had been coaching the defensive backs, is the new offensive coordinator for the Fighting Irish. He replaces Charley Molnar, who is the new head coach at Massachusetts.
Martin was a head coach and offensive coordinator at Grand Valley State, where Kelly previously coached.
The school also named defensive coordinator Bob Diaco an assistant head coach and promoted Scott Booker from intern to offensive assistant. Kerry Cooks is now co-defensive coordinator.

George F. Will: The operatic governor
Cory Booker, Newark's Democratic mayor, supposedly has a bright future but it will not be as New Jersey's governor any time soon. He has challenged the renomination of an incumbent Democratic senator, 89-year-old Frank Lautenberg, rather than tangle with Christie, who already has $2.14 million in his campaign treasury and who on Feb. 13 will be given a Silicon Valley fundraiser at the home of Facebook billionaire Mark Zuckerberg.
By 2015, the Republican nominating electorate will have forgotten Christie's effusive praise of Obama's post-Sandy solicitousness toward New Jersey. And Christie will be the rambunctious fellow who before Sandy described Obama as "a man walking around in a dark room looking for the light switch of leadership." Remember the name of Mickey Spillane's famous protagonist: Mike Hammer.
Will's email address is email@example.com.

IDC: Companies select open source for safety reasons
In a survey by market-researcher IDC, companies in Australia, Korea, India and China quote better protection against vulnerabilities gaps as the main reason for the implementation of Open Source technology.
The survey titled "The Momentum of Open Source" comes to the conclusion that organizations in India and the People's Republic of China use more Open Source Software (OSS) than in Australia and Korea. In all four countries small to mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) deploy more free software than larger enterprises. "The results indicate that organizations perceived open source technology as providing better security compared to proprietary products", said Prianka Srinivasan, a market analyst with IDCs Asia/Pacific software research team. Although the market-researcher still see cost-efficiency as the key factor, OSS is now used for a precisely defined range of tasks.
Security is of the reasons for the implementation of Open Source software, says US market researcher IDC.
Decision makers all over the world use OSS primarily for security reasons, with economy taking second place. Korea is the only country where budget concerns are more important. SMEs in Korea also see the quality of the free software and better management tools as the main benefit. "IDC believes that open source technology and software will appear in the higher end of the application stack in the coming years", Srinivasan predicts, adding that "Commercial vendors of open source software will need to provide extensive support and training services, as well as address the issues of interoperability, in order to take advantage of the addressable market for open source technology in the region." The survey is based on the results and analyses of the more comprehensive IDC Exclusive Software Adoption Survey from 2007.

Goldie Hawn's star childrenGoldie Hawn has confessed the secret to bringing up well-adjusted children - is to treat them like stars.
The mother-of-three also revealed how she took her children on family backpacking holidays with actor Kurt Russell to show them the real world outside Hollywood.
She said in an interview with Britain's Independent newspaper: "The secret is to let them know they are the real stars, no matter how many people are praising you...
"Admit to your own frailties so they're not afraid to talk about their own fears. We did take family vacations where we backpacked and rode trains and didn't know where we were going, because humbling experiences are important."

Pebler, Sean (University of Oregon, March 13, 2015)[more][less]Pebler, Sean 2015-06-10T00:56:55Z 2015-06-10T00:56:55Z 2015-03-13 http://hdl.handle.net/1794/18927 8 pages Walter Pater's "The School of Giorgione" appealed to me because it addressed a concern I had with previous aesthetic texts. Most texts largely ignore the sensory training it requires to behold an aesthetic experience. I refuse to believe that art can attack just the senses alone. This theory would necessarily mean that each person is as capable of experiencing extraordinary aesthetics as the next. While this idea- utilitarian in concept- is appealing, I believe it takes some previous ability to apprehend notions of Beauty. I was struck by this realization while walking away from class a few days ago. It came after we had discussed Pater's essay, specifically the notion that all art aspires towards musical qualities. While walking and listening to Beethoven: Piano Concerto #1, I began to view objects as if music were emanating from them. Not only did I view plants and buildings this way, but human interaction as well. It was this synesthesia, this mixing of the aural and visual that prompted goose bumps in me. What could possibly be wrong with such unexpected, tingling joy? Upon writing my third paper, I argued that the world would be a better place if humanity could simply view the musicality of its surroundings. It is similar to Basil Hallward's definition of living in the sound of music in A Picture of Dorian Gray, "I believe that if one man were to live out his life fully and completely, were to give form to every feeling, expression to every thought, reality to every dream- I believe that the world would gain such a fresh impulse of joy" (13). Nothing seems more ideal than the electrifying joy Hallward identifies. While I had believed that this total immersion into the musical quality of life fostered more morality in humankind, I have since come to question this notion. en_US University of Oregon Creative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0-US Aestheticism Wilde Keats Shelley A Curious Crucible of Pain and Pleasure Other

This essay explores how the genre of the artist's book, especially the appropriative manner of artist's book, may be used as a method of literary criticism. The central argument of the paper is that the book artist, when using a preexisting work of writing to form their own artist's book, has the potential to not only create an object of interest and beauty, but also a work of intimate and scathing criticism. To demonstrate this point, the paper analyzes three separate artist's books: A Humument by Tom Phillips, Tree of Codes by Jonathan Saffran-Foer, and Legendary, Lexical, Loquacious Love by Eve Rhymer, each of which represents a different method by which the book artist is able formulate a critique of the original text they have altered. en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved.

In 2007, Ecuador's president Rafael Correa presented a novel climate change mitigation plan to the world: Ecuador would leave 846 million barrels of crude oil untouched beneath the Amazon if the global community reciprocated with a contribution of 3.6 billion dollars – half of the oil's market value (McAvoy 27). The Yasuní-ITT Initiative vowed to preserve immense biodiversity, protect indigenous groups, and prevent the emission of 410 million tons of carbon dioxide (Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues). In 2013, Correa abandoned the initiative, lamenting the lack of international support, and approved oil drilling in the Yasuní (Correa, "Anuncio a la Nación" 3). This analysis utilized Correa's speeches and government documents to identify the prevailing narratives employed in the initiative. Those narratives – common but unequal responsibility for climate change, a reconceptualization of value, and Ecuador as martyr and revolutionary – reflect a framework that simultaneously criticized and sought authority from the capitalist ideal. The failure of the Yasuní-ITT Initiative to capture the hearts and wallets of the world provides insight into the dominant global forces and perspectives on climate change mitigation policy. en_US University of Oregon Creative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0-US Yasuní-ITT Initiative climate change mitigation Rafael Correa Ecuador's Yasuní-ITT Initiative: A Case Study on International Climate Change Mitigation Narratives Other

Do large dam projects create a "sustainable improvement of human welfare" for those directly affected by a dam or not (WCD 2000, 2)? This question is central to a major debate in international development. This thesis argues that although there may be benefits of leaving a river to run its natural course, the economic gains associated with the implementation of a large hydropower dam bring greater socioeconomic benefits to the community in question. Despite environmental changes and economic obstacles associated with the Yacyretá Dam, over time, the people that depend on the Paraná River have experienced a significant "sustainable improvement of human welfare" compared to the residents along the Pilcomayo River (WCD 2000, 2). The benefits of allowing a river to run freely are the forgone opportunity costs that would be associated with the construction of a dam, such as dam-related downstream and upstream flooding. However, economic benefits such as job growth and access to electricity have the potential to outweigh these environmental costs. en_US University of Oregon rights_reserved An Environmental Anthropology: The Effects of the Yacyretá Dam on Communities in Misiones, Argentina in Comparison to the Economic and Environmental Well-being of the Pilcomayo River Basin Other

Showing that there is little or no persistent increase in growth rates of OECD countries but large persistent movements in investment, Jones argues that either the persistent movements in growth determinant variables have been offsetting, or "the hallmark of the endogenous growth models, that permanent changes in policy variables have permanent effects on growth rates, is misleading." This pafer replicates his time series test ofAK models and extends its original data to 2004 .

Exotic dancing has been studied widely throughout the social sciences. Many scholars, such as Bernadette Barton and Katherine Frank, have argued that women become exotic dancers because they are suffering from repetition compulsion, causing them to follow intimacy scripts in both work and personal relationships. However, these arguments have not adequately addressed the issue of how working as an exotic dancer may affect the sexuality of the dancers or their sexual interest in other women. This rarely acknowledged issue was of particular importance throughout this study, examining and comparing the participatory sexual encounters before becoming a dancer to the participatory sexual encounters after becoming a dancer. Through ethnographic and empirical research, I have determined that working as an exotic dancer does cause a change in the dancers' sexual interest in other women, as well as the level of sexual encounters the dancers are involved in their personal lives. en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved.

América Móvil Extends Cantv Acquisition Deadline
Published on: 4th Oct 2006
Note -- this news article is more than a year old.
Mexican mobile carrier Am rica M 243vil has filed a request with the US securities regulator SEC to extend the deadline for its share acquisition of Venezuelan carrier Cantv AMX said in a statement to SEC.
The deadline will be pushed back to December 29 of this year from the original date of October 2, which was also the date of the filing.
AMX is looking to buy 28.5% of Cantv from US telecom firm Verizon and has also stated plans to buy all other shares in the operator.
The Cantv acquisition is part of a larger agreement to purchase 100% of Verizon Dominicana and a 52% stake in Telecomunicaciones de Puerto Rico from Verizon, a deal estimated to be worth US$3.7bn. The statement made no reference as to how the other acquisitions might be affected.
Venezuela's President Hugo Chávez has threatened several times, most recently last Friday (Sep 29), to nationalize Cantv if the company refuses to pay money owed to former employee's retirement funds as ordered by Venezuela's supreme court.
Cantv started payments in the beginning of September to the retirement funds but is still waiting on the government to determine how much backlog it owes to retirement accounts.
AMX has indicated previously it would continue with the acquisition despite threats.

Qwest Field should provide a huge advantage for Sounders FC, but the club is 2-3-1 at home.
This place should be a paradise for the home team. Qwest Field with its 35,000 jump-jivin' fanatics should guarantee goals and wins and cups for Sounders FC.
It should be one of the greatest advantages in the game. Think Cameron Indoor on steroids.
It should be all cozy and crazy at the same time, the way the home pitch is for all of the great teams in this great sport.
At Manchester United and Chelsea, at Inter Milan, Bayern Munich and FC Barcelona, the home team rarely loses. It surfs that emotional wave that rolls down from the stands to win after win after win.

But in Seattle everything has been reversed. The home field has been a disadvantage. The enthusiasm of Sounders fans is fueling the wrong team.
"I think every team comes in here and is excited to play here," Sounders coach Sigi Schmid said. "It's different for them. This is not the atmosphere they have at home. For them, it's a thrilling, exciting experience that sometimes works against us."
How did this happen? How could the best soccer experience in the country turn toxic for the home team? How could all this noise, enthusiasm and passion work against the Sounders?
"Because of the crowd and the expectation of how they play, you maybe get a little anxious when there's 35,000 people willing you on to score," said San Jose coach Frank Yallop. "You get maybe a little anxious in front of the goal."
Despite the enthusiastic chorus that serenades them from the minute they take the field until they leave, the Sounders haven't been finding the back of the net. They now have gone 266 consecutive minutes without a home goal.
Qwest Field should be as safe as Old Trafford or Camp Nou. The Sounders should revel in the love and affection that pours from every corner of the stadium. The will of the hometown crowd should be worth at least a goal a game.
But after Saturday's 1-0 loss to San Jose, the Sounders are 2-3-1 at home. And they've lost consecutive home games inside their division.
They continued to push forward, continued to create chances and continued to miss the net. The Sounders outshot San Jose 18-3. They had 11 corner kicks to San Jose's 3. But at the end of the day they had another zero.
"It's the same story," Steve Zakuani said. "We create chances, but we're not scoring. Something has to change, but I don't know what it is."
After the game Schmid closed the locker room and unleashed his unhappiness.
"He told us we've got to have more pride," Zakuani said. "We can't have teams coming in here expecting to win. Teams can't come here thinking this is an easy place to pick up points, but we're on the verge of making it like that. We've got to stop that. He told us some harsh truths."
What are fans to do? Their enthusiasm is amping up the visitors and tightening up the Sounders. Qwest Field has become a Twilight Zone.
"During the national anthem I was getting goose bumps," San Jose's goal scorer Chris Wondolowski said. "Looking around, listening to the crowd, it was unreal. It made me want to come out firing. I think that first 20 minutes, their crowd really helped us."
The answer, of course, isn't for the team to encourage its fans to avoid Qwest Field. The Sounders aren't going to ask fans to muffle their enthusiasm.
As creative as their marketing department is, the Sounders won't declare their next home fixture against New England "Stay at Home Night" and offer season-ticket holders a free game next season if they stay away this season.
This team simply needs more goal scorers. It needs the return of striker Nate Jaqua, who should be ready in another week or two. It needs Swiss international Blaise Nkufo, who will join Seattle after the World Cup.
"We have to find a way to be more consistent and dominant at home. Last year, that's what we built our forte on," Zakuani said. "We have to change our approach in one way or another, because right now it's not working.
"The best teams in the league, I think it's their home form that makes them good. Last year, teams came in here and it was tough to win. It doesn't feel the same. We need to get it back."

I was out there for about an hour before I got it. The robin kept bouncing around from branch to branch and finally landed there. I snapped three shots before it flew off again.

Jay-Z's new song 'Open Letter' addresses selling share of the Nets
With news of Jay-Z looking to divest his shares of the Nets so he can become an NBA agent, we've all waited to hear what the man himself has to say about it.
So, naturally, Jay-Z put out a song about it.
Called Open Letter, the song addresses his decision to sell his stake as well as the reaction to that. It also goes pretty strong at an unnamed person, likely a Nets employee. Via the Brooklyn Game, which has full audio of the song:
"Would've brought the Nets to Brooklyn for free. Except, I made millions off of you f---ing dweeb. I still own the building, I'm still keeping my seats, you buy that bulls---, you better keep your receipts.
Jay-Z owns less than a percent of the Nets but has become an instrumental figurehead of the organization. He recently started a sports management company called "Roc Nation Sports" and has already signed Victor Cruz and Robinson Cano. But league rules state in order for him to represent NBA players, he must sell his share.
This isn't the first time that Jay-Z has rapped about his team, but this is probably the most controversial. In Open Letter, he also blasts his critics about his trip to Cuba, as well as his friendship with President Obama.

deer proof
Depending on where you live, deer can be a terrible garden pest. In my experience, there are very few truly deer proof plants; if the deer are hungry enough and used to the sights and smells of humans they will eat most anything.
They will never, however, eat foxglove...because it will kill them.
