Jaguar XF: Last chance saloon
Jaguar pins hopes on XF range headed by 420bhp V8
This is it then, the new Jaguar XF, viewed by many industry observers as the final roll of the dice for the troubled car-maker. And the first thing to say is that, having viewed it in the metal on several occasions, it has way more presence in the metal than any photos we've yet seen. It also looks and feels more expensive than any recent Jag, inside and out.
At launch early next year there will be a V6 diesel, a V8 petrol and a range-topping (for the moment) 420bhp supercharged V8 with a claimed 0-60mph time of 5.1sec and a limited top speed of 155mph. It'll be known as the SV8 but it's not really a true M5 rival, rather a luxury saloon with some extra grunt to make life interesting. We'll have to wait for the proper R version to arrive later next year, with a new, 500bhp, supercharged, direct injection V8 engine.
All XFs will come with the terrific new Sequential Shift, Jag-speak for the rotary gear selector on the centre console and the slick, steering wheel-mounted paddles offering manual control over the six-speed autobox. All versions will have leather interiors, keyless-go entry, a pulsating starter button(!) and trick dash air-vents that open up when the car starts. Prices start at £33,900, rising to £54,900 for the SV8.
Expect the car to drive very similarly to the outgoing S-type, so that means very well indeed. We'll know for certain in a few weeks' time when we get to drive the car ourselves.

Had an AUG $100 straddle bought Monday and sold at 3pm today. Re-established at a $95P and 97.50C strangle. Should be quite nice tomorrow morning as long as it remains at this level.
Yeah let's cross our fingers and hope that it goes lower than these levels tomorrow. What makes me nervous is the fact that a lot of analysts like this stock....I'm afraid that some of these guys might actually come out tomorrow and defend the stock because of the expected sales in this summer olympics and the Euro2012
I agree. I'm also afraid that they will try to defend this stock, especially since tmrw is options expiration. I wouldn't be surprised if they pinned it at around 95 to wipe out a lot of the weekly put and call options.

Allright, I wanna know who out there just has a bike to ride and who has one to be pretty. I look through countless posts about "I got a scratch onthe bike whaqt do I do???!!!" I mean really now.
Allright, I wanna know who out there just has a bike to ride and who has one to be pretty. I look through countless posts about "I got a scratch onthe bike whaqt do I do???!!!" I mean really now.
I'm pretty enough already. My bike is for riding :-)
I'll be the judge of that, but all right then. way to go.
Not me. Bikes are meant to be ridden.
I have a Serotta Legend Ti that I ride on weekends. My other bike is a Lemond Poprad that I use for commuting and unpaved road/trails. My third bike is an Italian club racer circa 1980 that I will eventually build back up with mostly Campy NR components. Since the chainstays have been coldset to accomodate a wider hub, I don't think I'll be going back to 5-speed.
OTOH, I was very upset when I got the first chip on the Serotta!
"Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ...'holy *****...what a ride!'"
Good point. However, there doesnt seem to be anything wrong with riding a bike WITHOUT a scratch... I agree, many people are more into getting stuff and carrying about the bike components instead of actually riding it.

I ride my bike, but at the same time i try not to beat it up.
-Full speed ahead,Hard and fast!
-You've always got to keep on trying, if you don't try you'll only fail!
I'm a mtbr, if there is a scratch, so what, there will be more scratches in the future.
Scratches=battle scars. That being said, I still try to take care of my babies and don't particularly like when they get scratched.
Would anyone here admit if they only had it for show?
Scratches are like grey hair, they add character.

i will admit I do have some for show (read: just too old to ride) but the majority are for riding. I guess there are workhorses and showponies in everything.

to be pretty.
if the bike allows me to fly, then its beautiful to me.
My last bike had "12 Speed Racer" printed on it... I was able to scratch out the 12.
That bike is now named "Speed Racer".
first of all, I don't like my bike or any component to be scratched or in anyway damaged... I want it to last, it is my investment.. But as you ride it, scratches are inevitable, especially if you crash.
Money is tight, so I would like my bike to last and remain beautiful.. If ever it is damaged in someway, I try to remedy the problem..
BTW, I ride everyday...
Ditto. My bikes tend to see quite a bit of rain and so on. Big deal. I still make the effort to keep them reasonably clean (although I'm less than perfect).Originally posted by Mad Dog JR
I ride my bike, but at the same time i try not to beat it up.
I seem to recall reading some statistics on the Bike Qld list recently that said the level of bicycle ownership in the general population has never been higher - and the number of kilometres/miles actually ridden has never been lower. The scary part is, I didn't find that surprising at all.

i ride my "pretty" bike... lots. it gets muddy, gritty from salt and grime in the winter and covered with blood(cherries and my own) usually spring through fall but it still stays "pretty"
i am trying out some mtn bikes so i can be a little more adventurous( bunny hops on a roadie are possible but very bruise inducing) and hopefully this one will be "ugly". however ugly=pretty to me.. sooooooooo how the heck do i get unpretty?
oh.. hehe , my hair after a 4 hour ride
..life... ya gotta ride it til the wheels fall off.
Well I have a bike to ride, but see no reason not to keep it looking clean and well lubed (or as you say "pretty").
My 1978 Schwinn letour II still looks good and certainly has seen a lot of miles. we'll have to check on the newer bikes in about 15 years. I'll post back to this thread when I have the data.
I agree. I ride off road mostly. Dirt and dings are expected. But after the ride, I still maintain it so that it looks and functions well for the next go around. IMHO, you can ride the wheels off your bike and still keep it looking good if you maintain it regularly. But I see where you're comin' from w\the thread title. There are those (and we all know some) that have a sweet bike, ride it once or twice a month at the park, stow it in the garage, then boast about how pretty and expensive their bike is.Well I have a bike to ride, but see no reason not to keep it looking clean and well lubed (or as you say "pretty").
My bikes were meant to be ridden and that's what I do with them. I try to keep them clean and nice looking but if they get a scratch or three along the way so be it.
"You never fail, you simply produce results. Learn from these" - Anonymous
Well I guess I will admit to it.
I have a road bike that I ride. It is scratched up so i try to ride where noone can see me. I'd be too embarassed
I have another bike, top-o-the-line frame and components that i strap to the car rack (on nice days) and drive around where cyclists hang out, wearing the hotest cycling clothes, pretending to be a big time racer. I get all the envious looks for these people and oh the ladies just swoon over my bike and my clothes.
I never actually ride the bike cause I may get it dirty or scratched as it was VERY expensive. But I admit it is for looks and that's all. Hey what else am i gonna do with my money. After all, looks are what matters not actually riding.
Oh and for those of you who will say that the lack of skinny legs will give me away. Well I am way ahead of you. i had them surgically altered to look like a cyclists legs. So there!
It's al about the looks not the riding.
oh brother! HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Depends on the bike.
If I had a Confente I'd ride it once or twice a year
on especially nice days.
For a 60's Cinelli, or Pogliaghi I'd ride them
but not as a daily rider.
If I had a curly stay hetchins, I'd ride it (but not in rain).
If its a new bike, I'd ride it all the time.
I believe there were something like 135 Confentes made
before Mario died, so it truely is irreplaceable (last one I
saw sold for over $6k), current owners just aren't selling.
so its less of "its a work of art" (besides aren't they all?)
than "Its really irrreplaceable".

One big benefit of my Peugeot UO-8 beater is that the paint and decals are already pretty banged up, making it potentially less attractive to thieves, and making it very easy to ride anywhere or park anywhere without worry. It reminds me of my starving student days at UCLA, when I carried a heavy case-hardened chain and rode some pretty ratty-looking bikes.
At the other extreme is the CyclArt paint job my Capo is now receiving. I still plan to ride the Capo frequently, but I shall be much more careful about how I park it.

I really don't like scratches on my frame due to the fact that I want it to last me for quite a while. Actually, it's not the scratches I'm worried about. If I treat my bike like crap and I let it get scratched, eventually I'll let the tubing get dinged. If I really wanted to look pretty, I'd let my bike get all scratched up so I had an excuse to buy the latest and greatest every 2 years. I take measures to ensure my frame doesn't get scratched, but I accept the fact that scratches will happen. Let me add that I'm only careful when transporting the bike. However, when it comes to riding, all bets are off. I'm gonna ride whether it gets scratched or not.
Besides, how many people out there spend thousands of dollars extra on a car just because it looks better? I'm sure quite a few. Honestly, who really needs a Subaru WRX. So what's wrong with spending an extra grand on a good looking (and riding while I'm at it) bike? To each his own.
Does the perfect bike really exist?
Just slightly off topic, I find that most of the scratches on my bicycles are from bike racks and moving it around while working on something else at home. I don't get much in the way of scratches while riding on the road, and only very small chips from the occasional pebble. As for dirt, well it washes off easy enough.

Shutting down the house: 'Jersey Shore' ending run
But the time has come to say goodbye. Or not.
The Season Two premiere of "Snooki & JWoww" (starring "Jersey Shore" alumnae Nicole Elizabeth "Snooki" Polizzi and Jenni "JWoww" Farley) is just around the corner. From the press release: "Fans will see Nicole prepare to become a first-time mom, from nesting to going into labor and ultimately, get to see the first footage of her new son, Lorenzo." That's Jan. 8. Mark your calendar.
And in the indeterminate future, MTV plans to launch "The Show with Vinny," which MTV calls a hybrid talk/reality show that "will shatter the typical talk-show format by taking the biggest celebrities out of the studio and into Vinny Guadagnino's family home in Staten Island, N.Y." Alas, certain members of this cast could have the half-life of plutonium.
Meanwhile, MTV is moving ahead with a new gang of wild-and-crazy kids. "Buckwild" premieres Jan. 3 with a group of nine rebellious twenty-somethings living in West Virginia.
That's all ahead. But looking back as "Jersey Shore" exits, the question persists: Why?
Maybe people watched "Jersey Shore" because it was a welcome, wacky liberation. A break from the confines of parents, kids, partner, boss. Within their world, the "Jersey Shore" housemates have been privileged to serve as your surrogate id, treating you to visions of irresponsibility while sparing you from its costs - whether embarrassment, a hangover or an STD.
Call "Jersey Shore" a train wreck, then, albeit with no casualties. But does that beat a show that really takes you somewhere?

The Very Best of Garfunkel and Oates
A collection of the 13 best music videos from comedy duo Garfunkel and Oates. Garfunkel and Oates aren't only the two greatest second bananas in rock history. They're also the musical comedy duo of Kate "Oates" Micucci and Riki "Garfunkel" Lindhome. The two have performed humorous folk-rock songs together since 2007, after they were first introduced at Los Angeles' Upright Citizens Brigade Theater by comedian Doug Benson. In addition to a cult following in the Los Angeles area, the two have become fixtures on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and have produced a pilot for an HBO series.
- 1+ 5- 0
Fuck Youv"F**k You" was among the first Garfunkel & Oates songs, written as part of a collaborative musical project known as "Imaginary Larry." When the ladies began performing songs together on YouTube, they revamped "F**k You" and posted it as a "Redo." The film features the trademark combination of Riki on guitar and Kate on ukelele, as well as a kazoo solo. Though the duo typically perform the choruses of their songs in sync, "F**k You" plays around with this gimmick, having them accidentally sing different, more extreme versions over one another.
- 2+ 4- 0
Me, You and StevevThis catchy little lament tells the story of a woman who wants nothing more than to enjoy the company of her new beau. Unfortunately, they are constantly being shadowed by the man's irritating friend, Steve, who persists in accompanying them on dates. A prime example of Garfunkel & Oates' ability to combine humorous observational comedy, a compelling narrative and a catchy hook into one 2 minute comedy routine. (The song is said to be based on an actual situation in Riki's life.)
- 3+ 3- 0
Pregnant Women are SmugvSo, Kate and Riki's theory is that everyone finds pregnant women to be smug, but no one says anything. Because they're pregnant. If that's not enough to convince you, there's always Kate's impression of a smug pregnant lady to seal the deal. The song has proved one of the more controversial Garfunkel & Oates selections, particularly among pregnant women, who seem to not really enjoy being called smug.
- 4+ 3- 0
Weed Cardv"Weed Card" points out the relative ease of obtaining a license to smoke medical marijuana in the State of California. The video finds Kate and Riki, initially concerned that it will be difficult to obtain the titular card, before discovering a doctor (played by comedian and "Anchorman" star David Koechner), who immediately provides a government supply to get legally high. Among the ailments for which the girls recommend pot prescriptions are anxiety, obesity, carpel tunnel syndrome, stuttering, tooth decay or even asthma.
- 5+ 2- 0
Why Isn't There More F**king on This Island?vIn honor of the finale of "LOST," the ladies wonder musically why more of the characters on the show didn't spend their time on the island having sex. After all, they're a pretty attractive bunch taken together, and as the ladies say, one way to look at their predicament would be "the best vacation of your life."
- 6+ 2- 0
Go Kart Racing (Accidentally Masturbating)vIn what the ladies insist is a "true story," they describe Riki having fun at the go-kart track before suddenly discovering that the vibrations of the machine is making her sexually aroused. Despite her initial qualms, the chorus reveals that there was "no stopping till [she] crossed the finish line."
- 7+ 2- 0
Worst Song MedleyvOne of Garfunkel and Oates breakthrough songs, "Worst Song Medley," just as the title suggests, mashes up several of the ladies' least favorite songs from their childhood into one slightly more palatable mix. The songs included are:
"I Love You Always Forever" by Donna Lewis
"Semi-Charmed Life" by Third Eye Blind
"I Don't Want to Wait" by Paula Cole
"Too Close" by Next
"Kiss Me" by Sixpence None the Richer
"I Wanna Sex You Up" by Color Me Badd
"Barbie Girl" by Aqua
"Breakfast at Tiffany's" by Deep Blue Something
"Thank You" by Dido
"Sunny Came Home" by Shawn Colvin
"Cotton Eye Joe" by Rednex
"Rush, Rush" by Paula Abdul
"I'll Be Missing You" by Puff Daddy, Faith Evans and 112
"Drops of Jupiter" by Train
- 8+ 2- 0
I Don't Understand Job
In this Funny or Die exclusive, Kate and Riki complain - through the medium of rap - about their difficulty with manually stimulating sexual partners. The song is among the more sexually explicit of Garfunkel & Oates songs, and springs from the girls' genuine anxiety about being "late bloomers" and skipping directly from kissing to sex without learning about alternative activities at an appropriate age. The song features a variety of pop culture references and allusions, including "Unsolved Mysteries" host Robert Stack, artist Jackson Pollock, "Blossom" star Mayim Bialik, "Bones" star Emily Deschanel, comedian Dave Chappelle and "Singled Out" host Chris Hardwick.
- 9+ 2- 1
This Party Took a Turn for the DouchevOne of numerous early, more primitive Garfunkel and Oates videos that got a flashy big-budget remake in 2011, "This Party Took a Turn for the Douche" finds the girls exploring a more urban, hip-hop inspired sound than their typical acoustic guitar/ukelele ballads. The video parodies over-the-top, decadent rap videos (particularly those set in hot clubs), and features guest appearances from Sarah Silverman, Tig Notaro, Alia Shawkat, Har Mar Superstar, Diora Baird and others.
- 10+ 1- 0
Present FacevRiki and Kate's homage to that moment when you get a gift you know you won't ever use. In typical G&O style, the song picks a small, awkward moment that has happened to everyone and pours over it for ever last humiliating detail. This star-studded early effort from the ladies features guest appearances from a variety of actors and comedians, including Cobie Smulders, Sara Paxton,
Robert Hoffman, Todd Grinnell, James Kyson Lee, Justin Kirk, Autumn Reeser, Paget Brewster, Samm Levine and Mark Evan Jackson.
- 11+ 1- 1
I Would Never (Have Sex with You)vIn the narrative song "I Would Never (Have Sex With You)," Kate and Riki take on the role of a woman who enjoys spending time with a male friend, but wants to let the guy down easy by telling him he doesn't have a shot of getting her into bed. The song parodies the common social situation in which men pursue disinterested women, holding out hope that they can turn a friendship around despite all evidence to the contrary. (For instance, the girls point out that, if they did in fact harbor any romantic interest in the song's subject, they would have at least shown him their boobs by now.)
- 12+ 1- 1
Sex With DucksvIn 2009, a Pat Robertson quote discussing hate crime legislation, and arguing that the legislation would protect people who liked to have sex with ducks, made the Internet rounds. It was followed by a segment from Bill O'Reilly's Fox News program that also threatened of a potential f*ture in which man-duck sexual congress was no longer legally prohibited in the US. In the wake of these comments, Garfunkel & Oates released the pro-gay rights anthem "Sex with Ducks." The song takes Robertson's comments at face value, and looks forward to a f*ture in which the women will be able to legally copulate with ducks.
- 13+ 1- 1
One Night StandvThis song imagines an alternate reality in which Kate and Riki are really cool, and explores how a one night stand would unfold in this universe. The song opens with a number of mock "pick-up lines" and sexual innuendos, such as "I'm like Fred Flintstone, I'll make your bed rock" and "You're like a parking ticket...so fine" before proceeding to the sex...and then the inevitable awkward morning after.
- 14+ 1- 2
Gay BoyfriendvThis ode to a girl's amazing new boyfriend (who just happens to have no interest in her sexually) features guest hand-clapping and gasps from comedians Jon Daly and Josh Fadem. The song is also among Garfunkel and Oates' more lyrically dense, fitting in a ton of side jokes and references into a slender 2 and a half minutes.

Absolute quantification of microbial proteomes at different states by directed mass spectrometry
Schmidt, Alexander

Malmström, Johan

Molecular Systems Biology
The developed, directed mass spectrometry workflow allows to generate consistent and system-wide quantitative maps of microbial proteomes in a single analysis. Application to the human pathogen L. interrogans revealed mechanistic proteome changes over time involved in pathogenic progression and antibiotic defense, and new insights about the regulation of absolute protein abundances within operons.
The developed, directed proteomic approach allowed consistent detection and absolute quantification of 1680 proteins of the human pathogen L. interrogans in a single LC–MS/MS experiment.The comparison of 25 extensive, consistent and quantitative proteome maps revealed new insights about the proteome changes involved in pathogenic progression and antibiotic defense of L. interrogans, and about the regulation of protein abundances within operons.The generated time-resolved data sets are compatible with pattern analysis algorithms developed for transcriptomics, including hierarchical clustering and functional enrichment analysis of the detected profile clusters.This is the first study that describes the absolute quantitative behavior of any proteome over multiple states and represents the most comprehensive proteome abundance pattern comparison for any organism to date.
Over the last decade, mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics has evolved as the method of choice for system-wide proteome studies and now allows for the characterization of several thousands of proteins in a single sample. Despite these great advances, redundant monitoring of protein levels over large sample numbers in a high-throughput manner remains a challenging task. New directed MS strategies have shown to overcome some of the current limitations, thereby enabling the acquisition of consistent and system-wide data sets of proteomes with low-to-moderate complexity at high throughput.
In this study, we applied this integrated, two-stage MS strategy to investigate global proteome changes in the human pathogen L. interrogans. In the initial discovery phase, 1680 proteins (out of around 3600 gene products) could be identified (Schmidt et al, 2008) and, by focusing precious MS-sequencing time on the most dominant, specific peptides per protein, all proteins could be accurately and consistently monitored over 25 different samples within a few days of instrument time in the following scoring phase (Figure 1). Additionally, the co-analysis of heavy reference peptides enabled us to obtain absolute protein concentration estimates for all identified proteins in each perturbation (Malmström et al, 2009). The detected proteins did not show any biases against functional groups or protein classes, including membrane proteins, and span an abundance range of more than three orders of magnitude, a range that is expected to cover most of the L. interrogans proteome (Malmström et al, 2009).
To elucidate mechanistic proteome changes over time involved in pathogenic progression and antibiotic defense of L. interrogans, we generated time-resolved proteome maps of cells perturbed with serum and three different antibiotics at sublethal concentrations that are currently used to treat Leptospirosis. This yielded an information-rich proteomic data set that describes, for the first time, the absolute quantitative behavior of any proteome over multiple states, and represents the most comprehensive proteome abundance pattern comparison for any organism to date. Using this unique property of the data set, we could quantify protein components of entire pathways across several time points and subject the data sets to cluster analysis, a tool that was previously limited to the transcript level due to incomplete sampling on protein level (Figure 4). Based on these analyses, we could demonstrate that Leptospira cells adjust the cellular abundance of a certain subset of proteins and pathways as a general response to stress while other parts of the proteome respond highly specific. The cells furthermore react to individual treatments by 'fine tuning' the abundance of certain proteins and pathways in order to cope with the specific cause of stress. Intriguingly, the most specific and significant expression changes were observed for proteins involved in motility, tissue penetration and virulence after serum treatment where we tried to simulate the host environment. While many of the detected protein changes demonstrate good agreement with available transcriptomics data, most proteins showed a poor correlation. This includes potential virulence factors, like Loa22 or OmpL1, with confirmed expression in vivo that were significantly up-regulated on the protein level, but not on the mRNA level, strengthening the importance of proteomic studies. The high resolution and coverage of the proteome data set enabled us to further investigate protein abundance changes of co-regulated genes within operons. This suggests that although most proteins within an operon respond to regulation synchronously, bacterial cells seem to have subtle means to adjust the levels of individual proteins or protein groups outside of the general trend, a phenomena that was recently also observed on the transcript level of other bacteria (Güell et al, 2009).
The method can be implemented with standard high-resolution mass spectrometers and software tools that are readily available in the majority of proteomics laboratories. It is scalable to any proteome of low-to-medium complexity and can be extended to post-translational modifications or peptide-labeling strategies for quantification. We therefore expect the approach outlined here to become a cornerstone for microbial systems biology.
Over the past decade, liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) has evolved into the main proteome discovery technology. Up to several thousand proteins can now be reliably identified from a sample and the relative abundance of the identified proteins can be determined across samples. However, the remeasurement of substantially similar proteomes, for example those generated by perturbation experiments in systems biology, at high reproducibility and throughput remains challenging. Here, we apply a directed MS strategy to detect and quantify sets of pre-determined peptides in tryptic digests of cells of the human pathogen Leptospira interrogans at 25 different states. We show that in a single LC–MS/MS experiment around 5000 peptides, covering 1680 L. interrogans proteins, can be consistently detected and their absolute expression levels estimated, revealing new insights about the proteome changes involved in pathogenic progression and antibiotic defense of L. interrogans. This is the first study that describes the absolute quantitative behavior of any proteome over multiple states, and represents the most comprehensive proteome abundance pattern comparison for any organism to date.

The ability to analyze and understand the mechanisms by which cells process information is a key question of systems biology research. Such mechanisms critically depend on reversible phosphorylation of cellular proteins, a process that is catalyzed by protein kinases and phosphatases. Here, we present PhosphoPep, a database containing more than 10 000 unique high-confidence phosphorylation sites mapping to nearly 3500 gene models and 4600 distinct phosphoproteins of the Drosophila melanogaster Kc167 cell line. This constitutes the most comprehensive phosphorylation map of any single source to date. To enhance the utility of PhosphoPep, we also provide an array of software tools that allow users to browse through phosphorylation sites on single proteins or pathways, to easily integrate the data with other, external data types such as protein–protein interactions and to search the database via spectral matching. Finally, all data can be readily exported, for example, for targeted proteomics approaches and the data thus generated can be again validated using PhosphoPep, supporting iterative cycles of experimentation and analysis that are typical for systems biology research.

Eurocopter's collaboration with Airbus on the new A350 XWB long-haul airliner took a new dimension by the signing of a major contract at the Eurocopter facility in Donauwörth, Germany.
The number one helicopter manufacturer has been chosen to develop and manufacture the door systems for the most recent member of the Airbus fleet. The contract for the development, production and delivery of all passenger and cargo doors for the A350 XWB was signed on behalf of Airbus by Klaus Richter, Executive Vice President Procurement, and on behalf of Eurocopter Deutschland by Dr. Wolfgang Schoder, CEO.
By assuming responsibility for the development and manufacture of all A350 XWB doors, Eurocopter has reached another milestone in its efforts to be recognized as a fully-fledged systems provider.
"This A350 XWB contract with Airbus, which gives us the go-ahead for the production phase, is of decisive importance to the future sustainability of our manufacturing site in Germany," declared Lutz Bertling, President and CEO of the Eurocopter Group. "It confirms our position as an experienced and highly skilled manufacturer of aircraft components, rather than merely as a leader in the helicopter business," he added. "It also confirms that our Center of Excellence for Airplane Door Systems is on the right track by shifting its focus from traditional metal structures to new manufacturing technologies based on composite materials."
More than 150 Eurocopter engineers have been involved in the conceptual design, development and pre-production phases of this project since it was launched in 1997. An estimated budget of nearly 1.5 billion euros has been set aside to cover the total expenditure on door systems for the planned family of A350 XWB aircraft, including work subcontracted to program partners in South Korea.

RI issues non-essential travel ban on highways
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Interstate 95 and other major highways in Rhode Island have been closed to regular traffic because of the potentially dangerous storm moving through the state.
Gov. Lincoln Chafee ordered Interstates 95, 195 and 295 and Routes 146 and 24 closed to most vehicular traffic beginning at 5 p.m. Friday.
Emergency vehicles, public works and utility crews, government officials, news media and health care workers are exempt from the restrictions, as are workers involved in "critical" services including fuel and food delivery trucks.
Transportation officials say heavy snow, strong winds and poor visibility will make the roadways unsafe and potentially tie up critical public safety resources.
The restrictions are in place until further notice. The blizzard is expected to end Saturday.
Similar restrictions are in place in neighboring states.

The Lord God said, 'It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him' (Genesis 2:18).
My mom had two "must haves" when she was looking for a spouse: a man who loved the Lord and who was a farmer. She found both things in my dad when they married 37 years ago. Together they raised seven children on a turkey farm in southwest Minnesota. But then poultry cholera hit. Turkeys were dying by the dozens; the business was struggling. So my dad researched other income options and decided to build a 44-room hotel on the Mississippi River in Wisconsin.
As my dad continued to learn the ropes of hotel ownership, I remember my mom talking a lot about "following her husband" into this new career path. It irritated me. C'mon, Mom, I thought. Your kids are grown. You have a master's in Christian education. Why don't you start pursuing something you've always dreamed of? But she didn't. She brought her talents and creativity into her husband's career change.
"Helping" will look a variety of different ways in a marriage. As I talked to more of my married friends about how they help their husbands, their responses were humbling:
- When he has a dream, I help him accomplish it. I'm the detail/planner/organizer to match his muscle/provider/go-out-and-do-it.
- When I became a stay-at-home mom, I took over the monthly budget and the "business" details of running the home. I take care of those things during the day so that my husband doesn't have to worry about doing more "work" after he gets home from work.
- Since my husband travels so much, I make it a point to fold and pack his clothes, and have fresh sheets on the bed when he gets home.
- I compliment him when out with people. Respect him more than anyone else. Build him up in any way I can. I'm his biggest supporter and make home a place of comfort for him.
- Trusting his leadership is helping. If I don't trust his leadership, he can't lead and I'm not helping.
Most days the idea of baking cookies for another person, folding laundry for another person or shopping for toothpaste for another person really excites me. Susie Homemaker is a title I'd love to have, and I hope to do the job well one day. Yet part of me also thinks, Helper? Really? Couldn't a 12 year old be someone's helper? I feel a tension between my desire and ability to manage a home with the career qualifications shown on my résumé.
The good news is rather than chucking one for the other, once a woman marries, she has a great opportunity and responsibility to bring all of her experience, education, skills, personality traits and giftings to the table for the benefit of her husband and family — and by extension, many others.
We can debate a long time about the how-to's of being a helper, but let's not lose sight of what the Bible says: God created man first; it was not good for the man to be alone; God created a woman to be his suitable helper.
In our girl-power, you-can-do-anything-you-set-your-mind-to world, this set-up God invented can feel offensive. Our sinful nature resists the idea of being a helper. As a single woman, I sometimes fear the loss of independence it requires. Yet the woman as helper is part of God's design for the family.
By the way, that hotel my parents opened 13 years ago won Property of the Year at the annual AmericInn convention this year. My dad will tell you that it was largely because of my mom's creativity, competitive nature and "women's intuition" that enabled them to receive that award. And by God's grace, the property continues to be profitable all these years later.

Secrets of Success
Day 31 - hunger scale
Monday, August 04, 2014
Nibbling all day can interfere with your ability to recognize true hunger signals. Linda Spangle has a scale that we can use:
0 neutral, not hungry, not full (usually "...one to two hours after eating.")
-1 a little hungry ("...you feel hollow or your stomach growls...")
-2 very hungry (if you ignore/miss your hunger signs [-1], then you are at -2 or very hungry)
-3 starved, way too hungry (if you ignore or miss -1 and -2, then you are at -3 or starved)
This is the first time I had ever heard of this. So Linda Spangle recommends that while you are at restaurants hold off when the bread or appetizers come at least until the main meal arrives. Then put a small amount on your plate if you still want some. The reasoning behind this is to not overeat the bread or appetizers. It also helps with "avoiding taking seconds or eating desserts."
We actually went to a restaurant on Saturday. Although I did not do this, I did have only one tiny piece of bread out of the whole loaf. And, I l-o-v-e bread so this was an accomplishment for me. Also, I ate slowly and tried to put my fork down when I could remember. My son and I had originally decided to get a brownie with ice cream and I was going to take 1 bite, but thankfully he said he didn't want anyway and truthfully, neither did I after the meal. I just don't know if I could have said no without him though.
Linda Spangle aslo talks about waiting to eat the main meal until right before the bill comes so that you'll eat less and leave more. Truthfully, I don't like this idea because if I go out and spend money, I want to eat what I get. This doesn't mean I have to eat everything on the plate. Still, I believe if I wait, I will end up rushing to get it all in. Instead, I like what I have been learning thus far. I eat, leave some on the plate, and can use it as leftovers if not high in calories. I ended up eating only half of the tilipia so that is good enough for me. I know I am resisting and maybe I am just not ready yet to learn this lesson yet.
* watch for places where you postpone eating
* journal about which foods you postponed and "rate how much you ate compared to your usual amount"
* by doing this, are you able to postpone eating those foods entirely?

I'm with you. I don't agree on waiting to eat until the bill comes. Realistically how many people would you think do this?

I have heard a lot about Linda Spangle and some of her stuff is interesting. But if I postpone eating at my regular time it messes with my diabetes, to say nothing about how I want to eat even more than I had planned.
Good blog!!

In some restaurants, the server doesn't bring the check until all diners have finished. Even then, at times, you have to ask for the check. If the food is supposed to be hot, I want it boiling. Does Linda Spangle address the issue of cold food? For me, unless I was absolutely starving, that would cause me not to eat. Hmmm...maybe that's the object of the lesson.
Your writing is so powerful! Thanks for sharing.

It sounds like Linda Spangle has some very good ideas. I don't like the one about waiting to eat until the bill comes - it would be extremely hard to do that in the first place; and in the second place, it would definitely make your companions uncomfortable.
However, I would like to add that you should ask the server not to bring the bread basket at all if possible...or else be sure that it is on the other side of the table far away from you so you have to ask to have it passed if you want bread. Sometimes, that helps you think before mindlessly eating!
Keep up the great work! I am very proud of you!

OKC airport won't have scans, but pat-downs possible
Travelers flying out of Will Rogers World Airport won't have to pass through full-body scanners this holiday season, but enhanced pat-downs are a possibility and airports on return flights home could have body scanning technology.
Reports across the country of travelers being roughly handled and searched after refusing to go through body scans has brought scathing criticism of the Transportation Security Administration's Nov. 1 implementation of more aggressive passenger screening.
But those problems aren't being seen in Oklahoma, officials said here.
Tulsa International Airport in 2008 was the 11th U.S. airport to run full-body scans and has had few complaints.
Karen Carney, spokeswoman for Will Rogers World Airport, said travelers from Oklahoma City won't see many changes, but enhanced pat-downs are a possibility if a person repeatedly sets off a metal detector or is selected for random screening.
She said about 14,000 travelers a day, excluding Thanksgiving Day and Friday when numbers decrease, will fly into and out of the airport this week. The increased number of travelers, the added security measures and national attention has increased anxiety, particularly about the body searches.
"They are specifically feeling in some more sensitive areas during those pat-downs,†Carney said. "But only a small number of people traveling will go through these.â€
TSA says 69 airports have scanners. Oklahoma City is expected to join that list next year.
Luis Casanova, TSA regional spokesman, wouldn't say in detail what parts of the body are checked.
But he said the pat-downs are "very thorough.â€
"We need to know that underneath your clothes there are no dangerous objects or explosive devices,†Casanova said.
A cell phone video of a California man went viral after he refused a body scan and told TSA agents if they touched his groin area, he'd have them arrested.
This week, a story about a Michigan bladder cancer survivor being patted down so roughly a bag he wore to collect his urine spilled over his clothing increased the furor.
Others stories include parents standing by as their children were patted down and others being humiliated as they were patted down in front of other travelers.
Concerns about the new requirements have been overblown and there have been relatively few complaints, TSA's Casanova said. About 34 million people have gone through airport screenings since Nov. 1. About 700 of those have filed complaints.
"It's not punitive or picking people out,†he said. "Right now, this is what works.â€
Casanova said the imaging and pat-downs are the next evolution in an already layered security system at airports.
He said incidents like the December 2009 attempt to blow up an airplane headed from the Netherlands to Michigan is a key example of why screening techniques have become more detailed. The suspect is alleged to have boarded a flight with enough explosives under his clothing to bring down the airplane. His attempt failed, but Casanova said TSA isn't taking chances.
Nina Lyons, 23, of Midwest City, said she isn't either. As she waited in line at Will Rogers World Airport to check her bags Monday evening, she said the more aggressive screenings didn't bother her.
"I know there is a lot that goes on behind the scenes,†she said. "Those who are in the know and do those jobs know what needs to be done.â€
She scoffed at some calls to boycott the full-body scans later this week.
Muriel Rosen, 84, of Encino, Calif., flew into Will Rogers World Airport on Monday evening. Rosen has had a pacemaker for the past 14 years and cannot go through metal detectors or full-body scans.
"It felt the same as they always do,†she said of the pat-down. "They do a very thorough job, and I'm used to it.â€
Rosen said she is offered a private room for the pat-down that lasts about 10 minutes. She's so unbothered by them she allows the TSA agents to check her in public view.
"They always give me a woman, and before she touches me, she has plastic gloves on and tells me which parts of the body she's going to touch,†Rosen said. "She says 'Excuse me, I'm sorry' and you aren't a bit surprised about where they go with their hands.â€
Casanova said concerns about the radiation levels in the body scans also are blown out of proportion.
"You get more radiation being on the airplane than you do going through the scans,†he said.
Symbolic, opportune time for attacks
David Cid, executive director of the Oklahoma City-based Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism, disagrees with attempts to boycott or opt out of the new screenings. Protecting life is the fundamental function of government and the holidays provide a symbolic and opportune time for terrorist attacks.
"As a thinking people we've appointed people to do the jobs they're doing,†he said. "While we are examining this, we should comply because we don't want to leave ourselves vulnerable.â€
Cid said it's incumbent upon government officials to explain their rationale for choosing the methods they have. The public also must decide whether the new screenings go beyond an acceptable level of intrusiveness.
"We are not privy to the detailed things going on,†Cid said. "Often measures are perceived to be excessively intrusive when they are, in truth, a prudent and necessary response.â€
Airport tips
• Have your boarding pass and photo ID ready.
• All liquids and gels must be three ounces or less and contained in one quart-sized plastic bag. The bag must be placed separately in a bin.
• Coats, jackets and shoes must be removed and placed in the same bin as the plastic bag.
• Laptops must be removed from the carrying case and placed in a separate bin.
• Any liquids such as bottles of water, juice or soda must be disposed of.
• Place all valuables such as jewelry, cell phones and wallets in a carry-on, purse, or the pocket of a jacket.

From Cyrus D
This is our 2nd time taking the Dinner Cruise and we again loved it very much. To me this is the best way to relax and see the sights without feeling rushed. My only improvement opportunity would be if there was a description of the sights or the waitstaff could be more informative. The meal was very tasty and a good choice on the menu. Also it states that a bottle of wine is shared between 4 people but both times on this Cruise we had a bottle of wine between the two of us which was nice.

We took the evening dinner cruise on the Seine. Wow! I can thoroughly recommend this trip both for the visual spectical (24km of Parisien gold) but equally for the fantastic meal and service. Romantic, sumptuious and excellent value. Thank you Henri you were right, we had a wonderful time.
From Amy Z
One always worries that they will not get the best seats or meal etc. Not true with this service. The boat was elegantly styled and the meal prepared and served to the highest of quality. We had window seats but all seats provide a good view of the scenic Seine river. I would highly recommend this tour as a "don't miss" to any Paris visitors.

Dinner cruise was an anniversary gift from our family. The service was excellent and the food was good. Would do the night dinner tour next time to appreciate the lights of Paris.
From Philip S
The food and service were all that we had wished for. Our experience was made all the better by our neighboring dinner companions. The one down side was that due to river conditions we were unable to head upstream and see the expected sights. Not a major issue as lots of eating, drinking and talking doesn't leave much time for sights. They gave us a free sighting seeing cruise as sweetener to boot!

As in the previous chapter, the author has prepared a diagram illustrating the various relationships to change that various examples of judicial review perform. In looking at Figure 3.2, however, it is necessary to return to the caveat at the beginning of this chapter, namely, the recognition that there are so many court decisions spread out over so long a time period that there is little guarantee that any subset of cases like that chosen for this chapter will be representative. Indeed, the best-known cases might be so well known precisely because they appear to be so extraordinary.
Thus, as Figure 3.2 reveals, this chapter has devoted considerable attention to cases in which the Court has reversed or modified changes either by overturning its own prior precedents, by modifying or restricting the impact of constitutional amendments, or by invalidating laws, order, or developing customs. Given the Court's normal deference to stare decisis, however, the author would hypothesize that judicial decisions reversing changes are probably far less representative than those cases in which the Court either preserves the status quo or sanctions a change which has already been initiated by one or both of the elected branches. Similarly, while cases initiating changes are fairly dramatic, such changes tend to be associated with special eras (e.g., the Warren Court) or with special issues (e.g., civil rights and liberties) and are therefore hardly characteristic of the Court's usual agenda.
Like the process of amendment, judicial decisions thus perform a variety of functions. Whereas amendments have as their central purpose the initiation of change, the central purposes of judicial decisions would appear to be either preserving the status quo or following the lead of the other branches of government.

FedExCup: PGA TOUR Playoffs
The FedEx Cup is the PGA Tour's annual playoff in which players earn points throughout the season to qualify, then participate in a four-event playoff to earn a $10 million bonus prize.
Golfers amass points -- based on their finishes in individual tournaments -- in the FedEx Cup regular season, which runs from January through mid-August. The top 125 finishers in the point standings advance to the PGA Tour Playoffs for the FedEx Cup, a series of four tournaments that successively narrow the field and culminate with the FedEx Cup champion being crowned after the Tour Championship in late September.
The winner of the FedEx Cup receives -- along with the FedEx Cup trophy created by Tiffany & Co., -- $10 million from an overall pool of $35 million for participants, representing the largest single bonus payout in sports. The top five finishers in the final standings each earn at least $1 million each, with money awarded to the season's top 150 players in the final point standings.
The initial concept of a point-based system for the PGA Tour was announced in November 2005. It was designed to offer another competitive element to the sport and determine a season-long champion for golf's professional tour.
With FedEx as the competition sponsor, the FedEx Cup was first implemented for the 2007 PGA Tour season, offering a points race for participants similar to the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series in auto racing. Set up to combine a regular season in which players earn points with a series of playoff events for top qualifiers, the FedEx Cup would award the player finishing the season with the most points a prize of $10 million (among a much larger pool of $35 million in total winnings for participants).
For the initial season of the FedEx Cup, players accumulated points based on their individual finishes at tournaments in a 33-week regular season, and the top 143 golfers in the point standings qualified for the 2007 PGA Tour Playoffs for the FedEx Cup.
The standings determined the players' seeds for the playoffs portion of the competition. Qualifiers' points were reset before the four playoff events, which featured a progressive cut that narrowed the field further after each tournament to determine the final 30 participants for the Tour Championship.
After five regular-season tour victories, Tiger Woods was in great position to secure the inaugural competition's trophy. He skipped the opening playoff event, The Barclays, but finished second in the Deutsche Bank Championship and won the final two playoff events -- the BMW Championship and the Tour Championship -- to finish with 123,033 total points and capture the 2007 FedEx Cup.
Two changes were made to the point system for the 2008 edition:
-- There was a narrowing of the gap between players' point totals at the reset going into the playoffs. For example, the gap between the first- and second-ranked players was 1,000 points at the reset in 2007. That gap was reduced to 500 points, with similar reductions being made all the way down to 144th place.
-- The number of FedEx Cup points available at playoff events was increased by 2,000 additional points per finish position. For example, a third-place finish that was worth 3,400 points in 2007 was worth 5,400 points in 2008.
The effect of these two changes was some improvement in a player's ability to make substantial gains in overall position based on stellar play in the playoffs, plus an increase in the number of players who would have a shot at winning the top prize in the FedEx Cup.
The modifications might have tightened the field in theory, but Vijay Singh won both The Barclays Championship and the Deutsche Bank Championship to put himself in control of the FedEx Cup after the first two playoff events. A 22nd-place finish at the Tour Championship after a distant finish at the BMW Championship was enough for Singh to claim the FedEx Cup trophy, besting Woods' point total of a year earlier to finish with 125,101 points and earn the $10 million prize.
The main change in format for the 2009 edition of the FedEx Cup moved the time at which players' cumulative points would be reset from the beginning of the playoffs to a point after the BMW Championship to give each of the 30 players who advance to the Tour Championship a chance to win the FedEx Cup title.
Harking back to his victory in the inaugural FedEx Cup season, Woods also captured the trophy in 2009. Despite missing part of the year to a knee injury, Woods won five regular-season tournaments and entered the playoffs atop the competition's point standings.
Steve Stricker finished second at The Barclays and won the Deutsche Bank Championship to take over the top spot. But Woods then won the third playoff event -- the BMW Championship -- to regain the lead, then finished second (to Phil Mickelson) at the Tour Championship to claim the FedEx Cup's top prize.
The format returned intact for the 2010 edition, with the same point system and values from the 2009 competition. Matt Kuchar took home the first win of the playoffs with a victory in The Barclays, and Charley Hoffman followed that up with a title of his own in the Deutsche Bank.
Dustin Johnson took prime position in the following tournament, jumping to first with a title at the BMW Championship. But Jim Furyk -- not even ranked in the top 10 before the final tournament at The TOUR -- ended up taking the title with a one-shot win at the FedEx Cup's final event. It was the closest final to date, with Furyk and Luke Donald taking the win down to the wire.
Furyk had to save a bunker shot on the 18th to keep his narrow lead over Donald, shooting par on the final day and just holding off Donald's late rally. A bogey on his last hole would have meant a sudden-death playoff for the FedEx title.
This was Furyk's first FedEx win and 16th career win. Furyk had been ranked third in the FedEx standings before being declared ineligible for The Barclays, after his alarm clock didn't go off the morning he was scheduled to play in the pro-am. He became the second FedEx winner to take the tournament after missing the first event, following Woods in 2007.
The points reset came into play again in 2011, with none of the top five players entering the Tour Championship ending up in contention. And for the first time in FedEx Cup history, the champion was decided in a playoff. Bill Haas and Hunter Mahan were tied atop the leaderboard after 72 holes, with the winner guaranteed to take the FedEx Cup title.
After both players posted a par on the first playoff hole, Haas hit his second shot on the second hole into a water hazard. However, the ball was playable, and he recovered for a par, extending the playoff another hole. Haas took advantage, winning with a par to take home the title. He entered the Tour Championship 25th in the FedEx Cup standings, easily the worst starting position for an eventual FedEx Cup winner.
Each full-time member of the PGA Tour earns FedEx Cup points in every regular-season tournament he plays, based on the individual's finish in each event. There are 37 events in the FedEx Cup's 2010 regular season, which runs 33 weeks from January to mid-August. The number of points a player receives for winning a tournament ranges from 250 to 600, depending on the type of event -- with regular tour events awarding 500 points to the winner and the four majors and the Players Championship offering 600 to the winner. Fewer points are awarded to successively lower finishers in each event, down to one point for the 70th-place finisher each week.
After the regular season of the FedEx Cup is completed (ending with the Wyndham Championship for the 2010 edition), the top 125 finishers in the point standings move on to the PGA Tour Playoffs for the FedEx Cup -- a series of four tournaments that progressively narrow the field of participants and culminate in the Tour Championship in late September.
The PGA Tour Playoffs for the FedEx Cup comprise these four tournaments:
- The Barclays (125 participants in field)
- Deutsche Bank Championship (100 participants)
- BMW Championship (70 participants)
- The Tour Championship (30 participants)
Players continue to accumulate points in this secondary stage, with each playoff event awarding points equal to five times that of a similar finish in a regular-season tournament. For example, the winner of a playoff event receives 2,500 points, rather than the 500 earned at a typical regular-season tournament.
Points earned in the regular season carry through the first three playoff events. But after the BMW Championship, the point totals amassed by the top 30 players are reset before the Tour Championship. The player topping the points list at that time will be reset to have 2,500 points, the second highest will have 2,250, with similar incremental gaps set up through the standings, down to the No. 30 player, who is given 210 points. This recalibration is made to ensure that each of the final 30 players has a chance to win the FedEx Cup title, yet also to offer the top players the best chance -- with each of the top five players assured of winning the FedEx Cup if he wins the Tour Championship.
The golfer atop the points list after the Tour Championship is crowned the FedEx Cup champion, receiving the top prize among bonus payouts to the 150 top finishers.
The 37 tournaments (over 33 weeks) that make up the FedEx Cup's regular season in 2010 are:
- SBS Championship
- Sony Open in Hawaii
- Bob Hope Classic
- Farmers Insurance Open
- Northern Trust Open
- AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am
- WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship
- Mayakoba Golf Classic at Riviera Maya-Cancun
- Waste Management Phoenix Open

- John Deere Classic
- The Open Championship (British Open)
- Reno-Tahoe Open
- RBC Canadian Open
- Greenbrier Classic
- WGC-Bridgestone Invitational
- Turning Stone Resort Championship
- PGA Championship
- Wyndham Championship
The top 125 finishers in the point standings after the regular season qualify for (and are seeded for) the Tour Playoffs for the FedEx Cup, which consist of the following four tournaments for 2012:
- The Barclays (Aug. 23-26) at Ridgewood Country Club in Paramus, N.J.
- Deutsche Championship (Aug. 31-Sept. 3), at TPC Boston in Norton, Mass.
- BMW Championship (Sept. 6-9), at Cog Hill Golf & Country Club in Lemont, Ill.
- The Tour Championship (Sept. 20-23), at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta.
The golfer with the most points after the Tour Championship takes the top prize in the FedEx Cup and $10 million of a $35 million pool of bonus money (which represents the largest single bonus payout in sports). As of 2009, the runner-up in the final point standings received $3 million, with third place getting $2 million, fourth place earning $1.5 million and fifth place receiving $1 million, continuing on down to $32,000 for the 126th-150th finishers.
For the competition's initial year in 2007, the prize money for each finisher was placed into tax-deferred retirement accounts (rather than awarded as cash). But changes to FedEx Cup payouts were made in 2008, with the top 10 finishers receiving most of their prize money in cash, with a small portion still placed in tax-deferred retirement accounts. (FedEx Cup bonuses to finishers below the top 10 are still paid solely into the players' retirement accounts.)
In addition to the prize money, the FedEx Cup champion also is awarded the FedEx Cup trophy (created by Tiffany & Co.) and receives a five-year exemption on the PGA Tour. Winners of the first three playoff events receive two-year exemptions, and the winner of the Tour Championship earns a three-year exemption on the tour.

Sushi 101
There seems to be serious confusion about what sushi actually is. So, I thought I'd do a blog post about it.
Sushi is NOT raw fish. Sashimi is most commonly used to refer to raw fish. Sushi refers solely to rice flavored with vinegar and sugar.
Some of you are reporting that you are seeing rice marketed as "sushi rice". I would imagine that's just Japanese rice, which is medium grain and sticky when cooked. Rice is not sushi rice until its flavored. Here is a simple recipe for sushi rice:
3 cups Japanese-style rice
3 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
After washing the rice well, cook it by pan or rice cooker. Prepare sushi vinegar (sushi-zu) by mixing rice vinegar, sugar and salt in a small pan.
Put the pan on low heat and cook until the sugar dissolves. Cool the vinegar mixture. Spread the cooked hot rice into a large plate (if you have it, use a wooden bowl called sushi-oke) by spatula. Sprinkle the vinegar mixture over the rice and fold the rice by shamoji very quickly. Be careful not to smash the rice. To cool and remove the moisture of the rice well, use a fan as you mix sushi rice. This will give sushi rice a shiny look. It's best to use it right away.
Maki Sushi
This is rolled sushi. It starts out looking like this:
Then its cut and served like this:
Maki sushi can be stuffed with all kinds of things from cooked eggs to vegetables to raw fish to cooked fish to imitation crab to cream cheese, etc...
Futomaki refers to the fat rolls pictured above. Hosomaki is a thin roll that usually just contains one ingredient.
Nigiri Sushi
Nigiri is generally an oval or kind of rectangular clump of sushi rice and almost always topped with some sort of seafood. Usually, we're talking cooked seafood. My favorite is ebi (cooked poo, ha ha ha no shrimp I mean) and the hubbin's favorite is unagi (eel). But, I've seen nigiri with egg and certainly also with raw fish. Sometimes the whole thing is anchored with a thin strip of seaweed (nori), sometimes not.
Inari Sushi
Inari is sushi rice wrapped in a little sort of pita pockets made of aburage (deep fried tofu). Lots of times the sushi rice will have little grated bits of carrot mixed in. These are usually pretty sweet tasting.
These are my favorite kinds of sushi. There are lots of others like Oshizushi, Gunkan, Temaki and even Chirashi which isn't a little clump of sushi rice but an entire bowl full of it with other seafood and vegetables spread over it. Maybe we'll do a Sushi 201 sometime with all those others. :D

In 1994 I was diagnosed with celiac disease, which led me to create Celiac.com in 1995. I created this site for a single purpose: To help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives. Celiac.com was the first site on the Internet dedicated solely to celiac disease. In 1998 I founded The Gluten-Free Mall, Your Special Diet Superstore!, and I am the co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of Journal of Gluten Sensitivity.View all articles by Scott Adams
3 lb. Chicken, cut up
½ Cup gluten-free Flour Mix
1 Teaspoon Salt
1/8 Teaspoon Black Pepper
¼ Cup Olive Oil
1 Medium Onion
½ lb. Mushrooms Fresh Sliced
1 Clove Garlic, minced
1 Celery stalk thinly sliced
2 Carrots, thinly sliced
1 Teaspoon Dried basil
1 Teaspoon Dried oregano
4 14 ½ oz. Cans crushed Italian plum tomatoes undrained
1 Can Olives, sliced, drained
4 oz Tomato Puree
½ Cup Red Wine
1 lb. gluten-free Vermicelli or Angel Hair pasta
Dust the chicken with gluten-free flour, which has had the salt and pepper well mixed. Sauté in Olive Oil until Golden Brown. Move to plate with paper towels to drain. Pour off remaining oil. Place drained chicken back in pan, Add remaining ingredients, cover and simmer over low heat to 20 to 30 minutes. Adjust seasonings to taste. While chicken is simmering, cook gluten-free pasta (your choice) in salted water, per directions until Al Dente; please do not overcook pasta. This will serve 4.
With Preparation Time This should not take more then an hour, including the cleanup time.
As always, Celiac.com welcomes your comments (see below).

14 is out on PC and has been for about a year, if that's what you mean. (I think they cancelled the PS3 version...) I've never played a Final Fantasy MMO since I just never get into that genre and I don't want to pay for something I would probably never play. I've heard 14 wasn't very good, though, hence the console cancellation. :s

I'm annoyed that you had to play through the whole game to get critical. :/ I usually don't find crit any harder than proud mode so I would have been okay with doing it from the start. I mean, I guess I'll do my crit playthrough when everyone here is starting the English game (I don't have an English 3DS so I won't be buying it) but I'd still rather have done it from the start.

Get iiiit. Cutscenes are all in English and you really only need to learn katakana to play because the menus are all transliterated English words anyway. 8D It's seriously my favourite game ever.
I reaaaaaally want to fight
Sora in Ven's armor
because reasons.
VEN IS THE SWEETEST THING EVER HE WAS PROTECTING SORA LIKE SORA PROTECTED HIM D'AWWWWW even though it kind of didn't work because Sora still got possessed by darkness I guess? Low quality cutscenes are the devil.
When that scene first started I was kind of pissed off because: A) I didn't know it was Sora and I thought Ven had become corrupted and evil in Sora's heart which would never happen so I was mad, and B) it seemed soooo out of place and I'd thought the game was over already and honestly, the whole diving into Sora's dreams part seemed so tacked on and unnecessary.
OMG VEN. ;_____; I just about died when I realized what he did. And then him, Xion and Roxas asking Riku questions to test him to make sure he was a good friend to Sora or whatever the heck happened there. AWW. AWWWW. My new headcanon is that Ven is totally the babysitter in Sora's heart. xD; He helps along all the new arrivals
and takes care of Sora whenever he's sleeping on the job
and skldjfls.
/gives him all of the hugs in the world omg ;_;

Honestly, I think the worst part of that fight was the fact that I could never deal enough damage to that thing he retreats into before rewinding time. x_X I don't even know how I managed it the time I beat him, since it just went so much better than every other attempt. But that was seriously the only part I had problems on and I still don't know why. ;_;
