Spy Shots: Maserati GranTurismo running the 'Ring
The Masarati GranTurismo was one of the most significant designs that debuted at this month's Geneva Motor Show. While many attractive autos were in attendance, the GranTurismo represented a giant leap forward for Maserati compared to the uninspiring lines of the current Coupé. It's bold and slightly overexaggerated, just like a six-figure car should be. While seeing the GranTurismo on display was a thrill, these spy photos that are hot off the memory card have us more excited. They were supposedly taken today in Germany where this uncamoflouged prototype was heading to the famed Nurburgring for some shakedown laps. With a Ferrari-designed 4.2L V8 pumping out 405 horsepower underhood, "testing" Maserati's new two-door has got to be the best way to start your work week.

Malaysia tourney trumped by money grab in Shanghai
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. Upon seeing the PGA Tour join other tours in trying to stake out a presence in Asia, one high-ranking tournament official said two years ago, "The Far East looks a lot like the Wild, Wild West."
That appears to be the case with two tournaments next week.
The PGA Tour has its Asia Pacific Classic in Malaysia, which began last year with 25 top players from the FedEx Cup standings as part of a 40-man field playing for a $6 million purse. The winner gets $1 million. The field includes Brandt Snedeker, Lucas Glover, Brendan Steele and Jhonattan Vegas.
It's up against a new tournament called the Shanghai Masters that IMG put together at Lake Malaren. It's not sanctioned by a major tour, thus has no set criteria and will get no world ranking points. But it has put together a field that dwarfs Malaysia. And while it has a $5 million purse, it is offering $2 million to the winner, the richest first-place check in golf.
The 30-man field includes three major champions - Charl Schwartzel, Rory McIlroy and Keegan Bradley - along with Lee Westwood, Jim Furyk, Geoff Ogilvy, Hunter Mahan, Anthony Kim, K.J. Choi, Louis Oosthuizen, Padraig Harrington, Ian Poulter, Paul Casey and Y.E. Yang. All are getting appearance money, and last place pays $25,000. John Daly and Colin Montgomerie also are in the field.
The PGA Tour - not to mention Malaysia title sponsor CIMB - is not happy about the new tournament, especially with 16 of its tour members involved. Because it is not a sanctioned event, the players do not need a conflicting-event release.
The HSBC Champions in Shanghai is the following week, adding to the appeal of the Shanghai Masters.
Chubby Chandler of International Sports Management said he expects the Shanghai Masters to be a European Tour-sanctioned event next year. If that's the case, there must be an established criteria.
"It's probably a similar event to Malaysia," Chandler said.
It was a perfect fit for China, which is desperate to attract top players but still needs help - IMG, in this case - to run the tournament.
Chandler just returned from China after an exhibition in which McIlroy, Westwood and Poulter were part of a group that went to seven courses in seven cities over seven days to play a total of 18 holes, promoted as the best holes in China.
"We went to one city I had never heard of that had 32 million people," Chandler said. "It was a fantastic experience. It was like an adventure. There is no recession in China, believe me. The middle class is growing. There's a lot of people with a lot of money, but there's a lot more with a little bit of money."
That explains the interest in China, along with other parts of Asia. Chandler has predicted there would be more European Tour events in Asia than in Europe within five years. After his trip, he adjusted his forecast.
"It will be three years," he said.
Next week is another example of a crowded schedule, and how competition is not just among players. Chandler said he expected the PGA Tour to be upset with the new tournament in Shanghai. But noting that the field included the likes of Mahan, Furyk and Bradley, he added, "I'm just glad it's not my boys taking all the heat this time."
CADDIE ADJUSTMENT: Tiger Woods has his third full-time caddie in Joe LaCava, and the idea was to break him in slowly. Woods said he told LaCava at the Frys.com Open that he wouldn't ask him questions on club selection or reading putts. LaCava, who spent two decades working for Fred Couples, was to spend a week observing how Woods played.

The Philadelphia Orchestra recently had a "College Night." It was a nice idea in some ways--up to two tickets could be reserved online, and as long as you flashed your college ID at the door, it was free. (Of course, I wonder why this event is only limited to college students, when those younger people who are not in college might perhaps be even more in need of free tickets, but don't mind me, I get grumpy like that.)
But basically a good idea, and as the above-linked Inquirer article says, it's one of many such activities the Orchestra has been engaged in recently, trying in reinterest the city in classical music after the long somnambulance of Christoph Eschenbach's reign. (Memo to the NSO: really?) Definitely worthy. A bunch of my students went to this concert as one of their required attendances at a performance of ye olde classical music. For the most part, it seemed to have gone well. The band played Lutoslawski's Concerto for Orchestra and Tchaikovsky's Tempest overture, both fine choices for the occasion, interesting and challenging. But the middle work of the program was....Haydn's Sinfonia Concertante in B-flat major.
Don't get me wrong. I love Haydn. I have spent many a happy hour sawing away on my viola through the string quartets. The late symphonies are divine. There's a lot of great scholarship on Haydn. Yadda yadda yadda. But...if the Philadelphia Orchestra think this particular piece is a good piece to introduce college students to the glories of classical music, or even just to the glories of eighteenth-century music...well, I'll let my ellipses speak for themselves.

In an age when Franz Ferdinand can release a two-disc DVD set after only two albums, it's easy to forget how little video footage exists of the great performers of rock's past, and that's what makes this DVD such a revelation. Culled from over forty hours of footage famed rock photographer Bob Gruen shot of The New York Dolls on an early black and white video camera, All Dolled Up includes some great live performances, interviews, candid backstage footage, and preening in front of mirrors.
Although the video is crudely shot and the audio is far from pristine, this is still an important release for Dolls fans. Because Gruen was friends with the band, he had full access to film them at all times, and managed to capture the true essence of a band that most people have never seen much of outside of a few photos. He captures the drunken buffoonery, the backstage groupies and, most hilariously, the looks of outrage the band got from "straight society".
The bonus features don't disappoint either. You can choose between the performances from the film in an unedited form, an interview between Bob Gruen and Dictators singer Handsome Dick Manitoba, a look at Gruen's still photos of the band with accompanying commentary, and Gruen, Sylvain Sylvain and David Johansen doing a commentary track. All in all, it's a handsome package and kudos to Music Video Distributors for putting out yet another important piece of American rock history.

Might be worth giving the conference call a listen. A question came up about the sustainability of the dividend. No talk of increases, for sure. Rather, they were fairly non-committal about maintaining it at the current level. I understand that their are limits to the extent of forward looking statements a company can comfortably make but this sounded like "no assurances" language if I ever heard it.
Where did ya get that ideas..
I just think Aldo is a cautious person by nature and does not like to make predictions. Throughout the conference call, he hesitates to make future calls when asked to do so. It's important to note that he specifically refers to ORI's long history of maintaining dividends - he does not say long history of increasing dividends even though they have done so. He also says he wants to maintain this long history. To me, this indicates that the dividend will not only be maintained but may increase as it has done for the last few decades unless some unanticipated event comes up - and especially in the insurance business he has to leave that door open.
I wouldn't be so sure. I think they have some concern over capital levels and what they can safely upstream to the holdco.When they acquired PMA Capital, they inherited about $60 million in 8.5% coupon debt. It's currently callable at par and the Company has a Baa1 credit rating. This debt is costing them over a million dollars a year in extra interest costs (not the interest on the note but the spread over where it could be refinanced). Why do you suppose they haven't called it? It's currently callable at par.I think they're focused on holding on to cash and, at some point, the dividend could become a source of cash for the holdco.

US gives exemption on Iran sanctions to 11 nations
WASHINGTON The Obama administration on Tuesday exempted 10 European Union countries and Japan from U.S. economic sanctions because they have significantly reduced their purchases of petroleum from Iran.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton granted waivers to Belgium, Britain, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain and Japan, meaning that banks and other financial institutions based there will not be hit with penalties under U.S. law for a renewable period of 180 days.
President Barack Obama has until March 30 to determine whether oil prices and supplies are sufficient to levy sanctions later this year on countries that still buy oil from Iran. Pending that decision, another 12 nations - including India, China and South Korea - that are deemed to be major importers of Iranian oil have until June 28 to take similar steps or face sanctions. Administration officials believe granting some exemptions before officially authorizing the sanctions could motivate other countries that buy oil from Iran to reduce their purchases.
The sanctions target foreign financial institutions that do business with Iran's central bank by barring them from opening or maintaining correspondent operations in the United States. It would apply to foreign central banks only for transactions that involve the sale or purchase of petroleum or petroleum products.
The petroleum penalties only apply if the president determines there is a sufficient alternative supply and if the country with jurisdiction over the financial institution has not significantly reduced its purchases of Iranian oil. It also allows the president to waive the penalties based on national security.
In a statement, Clinton lauded the countries granted exemptions, noting that the actions they had taken to reduce their imports from Iran "were not easy."
"They had to rethink their energy needs at a critical time for the world economy and quickly begin to find alternatives to Iranian oil, which many had been reliant on for their energy needs," she said. "We commend these countries for their actions and urge other nations that import oil from Iran to follow their example."
Clinton singled out Japan for praise, noting that it had acted despite severe energy constraints brought about by last year's earthquake and tsunami. Japan has reduced its imports by between 15 percent and 22 percent by finding other suppliers and focusing on alternative energy sources, according to U.S. officials.
There have been concerns that the squeeze on Iranian customers could send oil prices sharply higher as countries reduced Iranian exports and made up for it by buying from other suppliers. However, oil producers like Saudi Arabia have said they are willing to help offset the difference and U.S. officials have said the restoration of Libya's crude output to levels produced during the regime of Col. Moammar Gadhafi will also help. Many European countries imported large amounts of oil from Libya, which essentially dried up as a source during the revolt in that country.
Oil prices dropped Tuesday after the exemptions were announced. Traders noted that the exemptions mean some countries that import Iranian oil won't have to cut off all of it.
Some had feared that if many countries had been required to cut off all their imported Iranian oil, it could have created a run on supplies and caused prices to jump.
"It'll reduce the squeeze," said Peter Donovan, an oil broker at Vantage Trading.
Concerns about tightened oil markets have boosted benchmark crude prices 7 percent this year. Brent crude, which prices foreign oil imported by U.S. refineries, is up 16 percent.
A prolonged dispute with Iran could eventually lead to supply shortages in parts of the world, driving both oil and gas prices higher.

Disney Interactive has sifted through the sizable Disney domain and elevated two executives, Jan Smith and Steve Finney, as senior veepee, worldwide operations, and VP-CFO, respectively.Smith becomes the de facto head of Disney Interactive — one of the very few female executives to head an interactive company or division. The recently slimmed-down interactive company, which falls into the management portfolio of Anne Osberg, president of Disney Consumer Products worldwide, thus has two new faces in the top tier of its executive ranks. In her new post, Smith is responsible for the division's domestic and international businesses, including product development, marketing, finance and administration, business and legal affairs and customer support. Publishing background She comes to Disney Interactive from Disney Publishing for Children, where she held VP/group publisher stripes and worked closely with Osberg, to whom she will continue to report. She replaces Steve McBeth, who resigned as president two weeks ago. Finney will have special responsibility for finance, operations, strategic planning and accounting, and will work closely with Smith and Steve Fields, VP/Disney Software, to guide the division. He comes to his new stripes from Walt Disney Records, where he was a vice president.

Bollywood veteran Prem Chopra is extremely happy for his son-in-law Sharman Joshi, whose first solo project "Ferrari Ki Sawaari" has done well at the box office. Joshi says his father-in-law is throwing a party Wednesday to celebrate his success.
"He is very delighted and very happy. In fact, he is throwing a party for me tomorrow for the success of my film," Sharman, who is married to Prem Chopra's daughter Prerna, told IANS.
Released Friday, the Rs.10-crore film grossed about Rs.14 crore in the first three days of its release. It is about a father and son, and the actor says that he didn't feel any pressure.
"There was no pressure on me, I enjoy my work. I believe in good quality cinema and I am extremely humbled with the audience reaction," said the 33-year-old who has a daughter and twin sons.
Produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra and directed by Rajesh Mapuskar, the film also starred Boman Irani and child artist Ritvik Sahore.
"I have seen the film twice. I also saw it during the premiere. It's a beautiful film. I am very happy for Sharman," said Chopra.

Can't you tell? Lights.
Can't you tell? Lights.
Hi guys, Been following this thread for quite a while and it's great. In my own pvc light I built I've been using a 20-watt 17 deg. MR-16 bulb. The 17 deg. spread seems about right for me, but was just wondering if a Solux 3500K 35-watt 17 deg. bulb would be better. I tried a 35-watt 'GE' MR-16 with a 24 deg. spread and it did'nt seem any better than my 20-watt 17 deg. bulb. Just wondering if the Solux would make the difference? 3500K? 4100K? Thanks
4100K will give a whiter white, and may indeed appear brighter.
See if the manufacturer will tell you the operating temperature of the "Solux 3500K 35-watt 17 deg.bulb". I melted a bulb holder once when I increased the wattage of the bulb. If anyone else has used a plastic (PVC) holder at 35 watts you may be ok. I now use an old NightSun metal headlight holder for a 50 watt MR16.Originally Posted by Wino Ryder
This space open
Is anybody still using the Malibu lights that started this whole thread? How are they working out?
Also, does anybody have a source for buying just one of the Optronics lights? They seem to be better, but I can't find them for less than about $30/pair shipped, and then I need new bulbs as well. Since I only plan on mounting one light, that amounts to throwing away $15.
Check out eBay for "Optronics Fog Lamps". I got a set of two on a Buy It Now for $8 shipped. They take the MR-16 bulbs.Originally Posted by indyz
I'm looking at Optilux car fog lights... Man, these things look perfect! Well, except that I'd need a 10 amp-hour battery to run them at 55 WATTS.
I've redone my lights again. Go my bicycle's web page and scroll to the bottom to see pictures and a 18 second movie (3mb file size) of Becca's Lights v3.0.

OK Becca, those lights are awesome. Got any more details, aside from a drool-worthy movie? What did you use for the blinkers?
Sure, Jeff! I went to eBay and bought this tail/brake light. Plus four of these clearance marker lights for use as turn signals. I got the pigtails, chrome surface mounts, and rubber grommets for the markers from the same seller.
I used a 5 watt Luxeon bulb with a diffuser lens for my headlight, and a buckpuck with that. Both of those are mounted inside a plumbing tailpiece - it looks a bit like a pipe bomb, no?
For the flasher, I used one similar to this automotive turn signal flasher. It is specifically designed to handle LED bulbs.
The control box is from Radio Shack, as is the power switch which is illuminated to let me know the system is on.
This sealed on-off-on DPDT switch controls my turn signals.
Finally, I am currently using a 12v 5Ah SLA battery for power. So far it has run about 2 - 2 1/2 hours without needing recharged. The problem is that the battery weighs in at 4.1 lbs!! So I have purchased a li-poly (lithium-polymer) battery which is 14.8v and 3.2Ah. It weighs in at about 12 oz, so it will be far lighter! The only concern I have is that there are lots of warnings surrounding these batteries of fire hazard. Scary, but I think I'll be okay.

I've been working on mine, and found it really frustrating trying to source parts. Here is where I got my stuff:
Home Depot for the PVC and silicone to hold the bulb in
Batteryspace.com for the battery and charger
RadioShack for the switches
The one thing I had a super hard time finding was ceramic sockets for the MR11, I could only find MR16 sockets, I finally found some that do both, and ordered a bunch of them so they ended up cheaper. I have 4 on eBay right now if anyone is interested.
I'll post pics of my setup as soon as I finish putting it all together. I'm using clamps to hold the lights on so I can remove them any time, which is great, because I only need them for night riding, no point in having them on the bike when in full sunlight!

I got the MR11 going, man is it bright! I can even go through the woods with it! I'm going to get the MR16 on soon, then get some pics up.
Your link isn't working. Just tell us the item number, and we can cut-n-paste.

Hey, Jeff-o - I forgot to mention a couple of things. I'm using Minoura Swing Grips to hold my front turn signals. Plus my old Minoura Space Bar (think old-style Swing Grip) holds my headlight. The headlight is held onto the Space Bar using hose clamps.
For the brakes, I actually epoxied a small square of 1/4" plexiglass to the top of my brake frames on the handlebars, and then epoxied these switches with roller levers onto the plexiglass. It allows total access to the brakes if I need to service them, yet the switches allow the brake handle to operate smoothly while activating the brake lights.

I fixed the link (I think), and the item number is 4456808285. If you search for MR16 socket it comes up also.

Is anybody still using the Malibu lights that started this whole thread? How are they working out?
I am using the housings putting in mr16 bulbs i have three bikes each with two lights,i can not belive anyone would use anything else
Cool, thanks for the info. My implementation will be a little different, as I am planning lights for a trike, but I'll be sure to look for those signal lights!Originally Posted by Becca
Ok bare with me because I am new to this.
I got a 12v 3.3Ah SLA and right now it is powering a single 20w MR16.
As you can see this is a pretty ghetto setup right now. I am using a RCA cable as a power cord and some crimped fittings to attach to the battery.
Right now I am not even thinking about water proofing since I will only be commuting in the dry weather.
Once I can figure out how to do it I am going to add an on/off switch and some more lights.
I just got the SLA battery tonight. On my previous commute I just used 8 double As to power the light just to see if I could do it.
What I dont understand is how I go about adding more then one light to a setup like this. Do I just solder/attach all the positive wires to the other positive wires and the same with negative and then hook them up to the battery?
any advice suggestions are welcome.
You got it. Then you would just put the switch inline in either the positive or the negative of the light you want to switch on/off.Originally Posted by riskus
It would go like this:
Neg - > Switch - > Light
Pos - > Light
Neg - > Light
Pos - > Switch - > Light
'05 Giant Rincon
That's what I figured thanks.
Now If I am going to add a second 35w light do I need to do anything else special other then a 3 way switch? Do I need fuses or anything. Also what kind of wiring should I get for this. Obviously that audio cable is not the greatest idea.
Depends on how you want it to work. I would rather have two regular SPST switches over a 3way so that I can have either light on, or both. I actually feel the audio cable should be fine. Mine is, thats what I used :-) I would put a fuse at the battery.
'05 Giant Rincon
Is a fuse absolutely needed? I am really a newb with this stuff so I dont know. I will probably do the two switch thing as well. Just not sure If I will use a 20 and 35 or 20 and 10. I need to figure out what bulbs to use for each wattage. flood of spot, angle of degree, etc.
I would use a fuse. Its a safety thing. With just a 3.3ah battery I can't imagine much hard would be done if you had a short, but regardless it's still safer with a fuse.
'05 Giant Rincon
You could burn out a switch or possibly ruin your battery, but the chances of that are pretty slim. Just put a fuse in line with the battery before you connect anything else and you won't have to worry about it.Originally Posted by Joecool85
Can I Just get a fuse at radio shack? Is it something I just solder in before anything connects to the battery? Does anyone have any photos of thier fuse setup? Do I need a certain type/size?
sorry for all the questions.

If company valuations reflect growth potential, giant food makers should have moderate ones based on their tendency to increase yearly earnings by 5% to 8%. Yet the aforementioned names now sell for a pricey 17 to 23 times current-year earnings forecasts. The group's average is 19 times—more expensive than fast-growing Google (GOOG) at 17 times, not to mention the S&P 500 at 14 times. "I've never seen price-earnings multiples rise so high so quickly," says Robert Moskow, a food analyst with Credit Suisse. He calls the group's hold on investors "Bieber-esque," as in teen pop star Justin Bieber. It could also be described as Buffett-esque; the Berkshire Hathaway head's participation in a buyout of Heinz (HNZ), announced in February, has made the group look more appetizing.

Faced with ultralow interest rates, cautious savers have bought consumer staples stocks for their relative safety and income, but the group now looks "overstretched" and "vulnerable to a significant correction," wrote Tom Graves, an analyst with S&P Capital IQ, in a research note this past week.
One reason investors love these stocks is that if the economy slips back into a slump, shoppers will still presumably buy their Cheerios, Campbell's chicken noodle and Tide detergent. On the whole, consumer-staples companies have indeed produced steadier earnings than the typical S&P 500 company during the stress test of the past six years, based on a statistical analysis by Barron's.

The income advantage food stocks have long enjoyed over the broad market has narrowed, notes Graves. Dividend yields shrink as share prices rise. The average food stock now yields 2.3%. Among S&P 500 companies that pay dividends, which make up more than four-fifths of the index, the average is the same, 2.3%. There's also the matter of dividend growth potential. The median food company paid out half its earnings over the past year as dividends, versus one-third for all S&P 500 dividend-payers. Dividend payments have been surging, but in coming years, companies that currently pay out less of their earnings as dividends may have the most room for increases.
It's not all bad for food. This year's corn crop looks likely to be much larger than last year's, which should keep ingredient costs in line, and projections for food companies to increase their earnings by 7% this year look achievable, says Credit Suisse's Moskow. But investors seeking safe harbors should scrap the notion that some industries are inherently safe regardless of price. Price is a key predictor of future performance, which makes it a key measure of safety. The food business remains stable, but its extreme popularity has made it, if not unsafe for investment, less safe.
CONSIDER SOME ALTERNATIVES. The five companies below turned up on a screen for stable earnings, modest valuations, healthy dividend yields, recent dividend growth and plenty of room for more payment increases.
Boeing has long attracted negative attention for delays in bringing its new Dreamliner to market, followed by battery malfunctions that grounded the planes. But jumbo jets aren't smartphones; new models sell for decades and mechanical glitches in early runs are common. The Dreamliner's fuel efficiency and passenger comfort continue to bode well for sales, and while the stock has risen of late as investors come around to that view, it's still cheap. That's because the Dreamliner, which is burning free cash now, will begin adding to it next year. Free cash flow will double to around $12 a share by 2015, says Wells Fargo Securities. That's 14% of the current stock price, which makes Boeing's dividend, at 2.2%, look likely to take flight.
Travelers takes a conservative approach to managing its investment portfolio and balance sheet, which helped it avoid steep losses during the Great Recession. It's reputation for stability has also allowed it to charge premium prices for its insurance. One downside for insurers in general is that, as ordinary investors know well, putting cash reserves to work at safe, reasonable interest rates has rarely been more difficult than now. On the other hand, a lack of ability to rely on portfolio winnings to boost earnings has made insurers more finicky about keeping basic insurance underwriting profitable. Margins are on the rise. Travelers goes for 12 times earnings and yields 2.1%.
L-3 Communications isn't immune to the steep, pending budget cuts known as the sequestration. Management says they could trim 65 cents a share from earnings, or around 8%. But the company has been active in pruning its diverse portfolio of defense programs of ones that are most vulnerable to cuts, according to Deutsche Bank analyst Myles Walton. He points out that L-3 has the best free cash yield among its peers, 13%, and that it combines a 2.6% dividend yield with a stock repurchase program that can reduce the share count by 7% a year. For investors, that's like owning the target of a slow-moving takeover.
House prices are rebounding and housing starts are up. Both signs bode well for toolmaker Stanley Black & Decker, but according to Morgan Stanley, an even better predictor of Stanley's sales success is the pace at which construction payrolls are rising. Construction has been one of the strongest contributors to job growth in recent months. Accordingly, Wall Street expects revenue for Stanley to rise 9% this year. Shares go for 15 times earnings and yield 2.5%.
Occidental Petroleum has underperformed this year amid a squabble over leadership, detailed extensively last week ("What Occidental Petroleum is Really Worth," April 8, 2013). The board, led by a former chief executive, said in February it's looking for a replacement for Stephen Chazen, who is only the company's third chief exec in a half-century, but has been on the job less than two years. Analysts found the timing of the announcement odd. Chazen, 66, was expected to step down anyway within a few years. He has cut costs but also presided over an unremarkable run for the stock. Despite the drama, shares look cheap at 11 times earnings and a 3% dividend yield. Oxy's stability is enhanced by its limited use of leverage and its predictable business of scooping up older oil deposits and using advanced drilling technology to exploit them.

sent like rain to your fallen knees
I remember blue written ?Paris? on you here at the break
through not a path but brambles thick and all I can do is
sit and stare at the floor
at my shirt sugar too
I don't need you anymore
who was I trapped in all this fucking
who straight as water as wine as you
and maybe for a second we both thought
it'd turn out the way we wanted it to
but you're not like the rest
you're not the fucking rest
you're not like anything I've ever seen
second guess worst is best
I'm not waiting for you
I don't need you anymore
and now I'm holding on
I'm holding still
let me go
as far as I can go
fake the fear
face the fear
flying high and sinking low
I'm not what you think
I am exactly what I want
I don't need you anymore

i altered this recipe two different ways. First, I not only marinated the meat in the tangy sauce but i also battered them with a spicy wing packet. Then, I used ranch dressing to top with instead of the tangy sauce.
I liked the recipe, I'm just not that crazy about bleu cheese!
It was very good, though perhaps could have been a little bit spicier. Next time I think I may add a dash of hot sauce. It makes for a terrific lunch.

This gorgeous kitchen in the East Village has so much goodness happening — the black cabinets and smooth horn pulls, the butcher block countertop, the brass and milk-white pendant light — but the standout feature is undoubtedly the tiled backsplash. Just ... wow.
A Subtly Sophisticated Rental Kitchen with a Personal Touch
Kitchen Spotlight
Like many rental kitchens, Bronwyn's Nob Hill, San Francisco kitchen has older appliances, Formica countertops, a stainless steel drop-in sink, and basic contractor-grade cabinets. Not much to work with at first glance, but Bronwyn had other ideas. (That happens when you live in the same apartment for 12 years, as Bronwyn has!)
She painted the cabinets — and made them two-tone — and added in a few little touches that infused the space with warmth and personality. Now it's totally charming! Let's take a peek at all the little details.
Here's What the Kitchen in a Sustainable Micro-Cabin Looks Like
Inspiring Kitchens
Tim and Hannah live in a tiny (196-square-foot) cabin they built themselves in Tahoe, California. The cabin is situated in a forest; is made of mostly recycled, salvaged, or low-impact materials; and is completely off the grid.
How do they cook if there's no electricity? What about a refrigerator? Or running water? They figured it all out, and designed a functional cooking space full of untraditional yet smart solutions.
Jade's Thai Kitchen in Chiang Mai
Kitchen Tour
Who cooks and eats here: Jade and Toby Keller, son Cy, and dog Dot
Where: Chiang Mai, Thailand
Rent or Own? Rent
Jade and Toby's kitchen in Thailand feels familiar and inviting at first glance, but if you look closely you'll notice several elements you don't often see in American kitchens: a shelving rack for helmets for the couple's scooter transportation, a (tiny) portable oven instead of a large range for baking, a power converter to operate all the coffee-making equipment.
Those are just some of the ways Jade's cooking life has changed since she and her husband moved to Thailand four years ago, but you know what? They love it.

The Wood Plank Backsplash Is the Star of This Austin Kitchen
Kitchen Spotlight
Georgia Pellegrini's Austin home is what she dubs "primitive modern" — it's mostly white, but "with touches of the trail and bits of the outdoors." I was most drawn to the wood plank backsplash in her kitchen, however. That's certainly not an element you see every day!
A Bold, Graphic Dining Room Wall
Dining Room Spotlight
In my quest for beautiful, bold dining rooms, I'm always on the lookout for that one striking detail: an emerald green ceiling, for example, or a fabulous rug. In this dining room, the wall is clearly the standout. What a backdrop!

|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.
Government Policies and Programs to Eliminate the Worst Forms of Child Labor
The Government of Zambia became a member of ILO-IPEC in 2000 and is establishing a national plan of action to address child labor.[2745] In 2000, Zambia also joined an ILO-IPEC regional project funded by USDOL to address child labor in commercial agriculture by withdrawing children from exploitative work and providing them with education and health care services.2 The USDOL also funded the national child labor survey conducted in 1999 by Zambia's Central Statistical Office with technical assistance from ILO-IPEC's SIMPOC.3
The government is also seeking to improve education alternatives. The "Educating Our Future" policy and the Basic Education Sub-Sector Investment Program aim to improve the quality of schooling, assist disadvantaged children and families who are unable to afford the costs of education, and achieve universal primary education by the year 2005.[2746] In addition, the Government of Zambia and UNICEF are cooperating to implement an education advocacy program, with prime focus on young girls and gender sensitivity in schools.[2747]
Incidence and Nature of Child Labor
In 1999, a child labor survey conducted by the Zambia Central Statistical Office, in cooperation with ILO-IPEC, estimated that 58 percent of children under age 15 were working in Zambia.[2748] About 96 percent of working children are engaged in agriculture-related activities in rural areas.[2749] Child labor is found in a variety of economic activities, including quarrying and mining, carpentry, street vending, food production, and trading.[2750] Children also work as domestic servants, and an increasing number of younger children are forced into exploitative work, such as prostitution, as a means of survival.[2751] In addition, the spread of HIV/AIDS has led to a dramatic increase in the number of orphans and street children, many of who engage in various forms of child labor, such as carrying parcels or guarding cars.[2752] According to UNICEF, more than 600,000 children have been orphaned because of HIV/AIDS in Zambia - the highest number in Africa.[2753]
Education is not free or compulsory in Zambia.[2754] In 1998, the gross primary enrollment rate was 101 percent, and the net primary enrollment rate was 85.4 percent.[2755] In 1996, primary school net attendance was 67.4 percent.[2756] According to USAID, of those who enter grade one, one-third fail to complete their education through grade seven.[2757] Girls' attendance tends to be lower than that of boys, especially in rural areas.[2758]
Child Labor Laws and Enforcement
The Constitution (1991) prohibits forced labor and establishes legal protection from exploitative work for "young persons," defined as under the age of 15.[2759] The Employment of Young Persons and Children Act (1933), Chapter 274, establishes 14 as the minimum age for employment.[2760] The Constitution also prohibits trafficking of children under 15 years old.[2761] There have been no prosecutions for violations of child labor regulations since 1997.[2762] The Ministry of Labor and Social Security (MLSS) is responsible for enforcing labor laws. Zambia ratified ILO Convention 138 on February 9, 1976, and ratified ILO Convention 182 on December 10, 2001.[2763]

3 ILO-IPEC, Statistical Information and Monitoring Programme on Child Labour in Zambia, project document , (Geneva, 1999).
[2746] The 1996 "Educating Our Future" policy calls for, among other educational system improvements, increasing the provision of basic schooling from 7 to 9 years for all children. BESSIP began in 1999 and will continue through 2005 with a total of USD 340 million in funding. (USD 167 million coming from the government of Zambia.

[2748] This survey was carried out with technical support from the ILO's SIMPOC. For the same year, the World Bank estimated that 15.7 percent of children between the ages of 10 and 14 were working. See "1999 Child Labor Survey: Country Report" (Draft) (Lusaka: Republic of Zambia, Central Statistical Office, 2001) [hereinafter "1999 Child Labor Survey"], Section 4.1.1, and World Development Indicators 2001 (Washington, D.C.: World Bank, 2001) [CD-ROM].

- body water needs;
- fluid balance;
- fluid homeostasis;
- hydration
Healthy humans regulate daily water balance remarkably well across their lifespan despite changes in biological development and exposure to stressors on hydration status. Acute or chronic body water deficits result when intakes are reduced or losses increase, but day-to-day hydration is generally well maintained so long as food and fluid are readily available. Total water intake includes drinking water, water in beverages, and water in food. Daily water needs determined from fluid balance, water turnover, or consumption studies provide similar values for a given set of conditions. A daily water intake of 3.7 L for adult men and 2.7 L for adult women meets the needs of the vast majority of persons. However, strenuous physical exercise and heat stress can greatly increase daily water needs, and the individual variability between athletes can be substantial.

Live up to the rhetoricJune 26,2013
Live up to the rhetoric
I want to thank Sen. Sanders for reminding us that a society is measured by how it treats its weakest and most vulnerable citizens. (Sunday Times Argus, June 23) It gave me an opportunity to reflect on how poorly we are doing. The senator is concerned about how we treat our elderly and, especially now that we have assisted suicide, I agree with him. However, I think we need to extend that concern to the other end of life.
Why do we deny the humanity of the unborn child and allow her to be aborted at will?
By Sen. Sanders standard we are failing. I hope he will have the courage to apply his standard to all persons, for there is no one weaker or more vulnerable than the unborn child.
I hope that it is not a case of cynical politics (seniors and expectant mothers vote, the unborn child does not) and I challenge Sen. Sanders to live up to his own rhetoric.

OOC: I'll be short too, partially because I'm vomitting up pure acid. x.x
I growled, my hand travelling to the hip-sheathe of my knife, not at all happy about some of the things she had told me. That's when I realised, I hadn't even gotten her name.
"Thanks." I said aloud dryly, moving in towards the others. Instinctively, I selected one boy out of the crowd, a little shorter than me with spiky brown hair. I held out my hand, my right hand, obviously, towards him. "The name's Bobby Roze." I said, my face blank, but my tone distasteful. ot of him, though I couldn't exactly make that clear, but at the situation in general. "And it seems like I'm in on this jolly suicide scheme." I said, before checking my coat, shifting my shoulders to make sure my left arm was covered. After all, you didn't want to make your introduction to people by saying you were crippled. Then they just used you for meatshields. "Though I think I have only the barest udnerstanding of what exactly's going on."

More human pony art, this time it's Rarity. So the idea of drawing Rarity in a bath had randomly popped into my mind after posting my previous deviation, and I had no problem with it. I drew it, liked it, then colored it. I had some difficulty getting the bathtub and the water correct, but in the end, I think it ended up looking pretty good. My original plan was to draw Luna, but I thought Rarity suited this scenario better.

Kawaii! >_<
did any one else see lyra
Elegant as always, Miss Rarity.
Rarity has hands and the seapony Lyra doesn't.
reminds me of blair in soul eater when she was taking a bath O_o
Why is there a sea-pony Lyra in there?
Is she thinking of using her finger as a scrub brush on her...? By the look of pleasure on her face she already did? Or do I just have a dirty mind?
sorry, but I think you may have a dirty mind XD
Huhh??? Humans can't use magic!
reminds me of Blair from soul eater very hot
Very Rarity
dang foam.
Hehehe! Seapony Lyra as a rubber ducky. Why do I get the feeling Rarity would have one of those?
Best bath time ever! Awesome as always dude!
Flagged as Spam
Very Very Nice Work, So Cute (I Must not think Pervy Thought's, I Must not think Pervy Thought's)

You should draw some humanized ponies with just long pants on.

Both HP and Dell have came out with results way better than analysts estimated. PC and associated businesses are starting to look healthy. This is especially true for MSFt since MSft also sells softwars into the distributions without need for harwares, and MSFt also has Servers and Offcies that are 70% of MSFt total businesses.
Also, MSft start to record high revenue from Surface hardwares this quater!!! Very strong buy!!!
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Yeah...right, you mewling idiot...
Dell earnings fall hard as PC sales slide
A 31% slump is evidence of stabilisation....in your deranged tiny mind.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
nobody in their right mind wants SUX you slack jawed simpleton!
