Do you have leftover plywood from another project? If you do, take a cue from the girls at Lolly Jane and make some quick and easy art in time for Easter!
For this decoration, they cut the leftover plywood into a 16 inch square. After applying a base coat of pastel craft paint to the wood square, the girls made a cute chevron egg stencil, and used more craft paint to apply the egg design to the plywood. It's a simple piece of art that brings color and Spring into the room.
Click over to Lolly Jane to get more information on this Easter craft made from project leftovers.

So, is everything new on this album, aside from the covers?
We're covering Suicidal on this record ['Institutionalized'], and people are asking why. I mean, it's SUICIDAL! We love Suicidal! It's not like we're trying to butcher their song. We just brought it up to date and want to let people know that we respect Mike [Muir] and like that band a whole lot.
The interesting thing is that we had to get clearance to do that song. And we looked around for the publisher of that song, and it ended up being Glen Friedman, who was Ice's photographer all the back to "Rhyme Pays" [1987]. He owns the rights, and he was a big part of the punk movement. It was really funny that it all came full circle.
And we did '99 Problems' to remind people that it was originally an Ice-T song and not a Jay-Z song. We were just trying to hit people over the head and let them know what's really going on. [Laughs]
Does it ever bother you that you have three albums in the band's catalogue that most people don't even know exist?
Not really, I mean, there's one in there that I don't really care for. We play songs off the records we like, and it's not weird to play them. This record has a lot of good songs on it, so it's going to be hard to figure out which ones are going to make it into the set list.
How did the track order come together for the new album? Something else that is significant about Body Count albums is that they flow from beginning to end like a complete listening experience.
Ice likes doing that. He likes listening to them in the car. He will actually drive around and program the songs so that they flow together. Then he sends them to me, and I listen to them. Then he sent them to the guys at Sumerian, and they liked the way it flowed. And that's something they weren't really aware of, being so young in the music business, that we knew from actually making records.
Like the first album, it went from a cop getting shot at the beginning to 'Cop Killer' at the end; they flow a certain way. And the iTunes Generation really doesn't know about that, because they just buy songs the way they do. But if you come across an artist that is used to creating albums, you know, LPs, you know you are going to get a product that has a beginning and an end with a flow through the entire experience without interruption.
What's with the voodoo obsession?
[Laughs] That's Ice's thing! [Laughs] He put Coco on the record! And that song ['Black Voodoo Sex'] is a continuation of 'Voodoo' from the first record. There's a lot on this album that picks up from the past. We had "The Winner Loses" on the first record, and it picks up here with "Back To Rehab." And I had actually quit drinking in the past five years, so there's truth in that. We're trying to keep things true to form.
What was the motivation behind 'Pop Bubble'?
I like that song a lot. I really like Ice's lyric at the end, "F*** bloggers, F*** bulls*** hype; Ice is on one tonight." You can get famous now by not doing anything! Justin Bieber and all these kids on television are taking so much away from music that "pop music" is a brand now. Even rock bands are brands now. During the day, band's used to stand for something, but now nothing is going on with these bands; what is their message? It's not that I'm too old, I hang around these kids, it's just that they have no motivation at all.
Why is Body Count not an ongoing entity? Why does it come out of the woodwork every several years and then disappear again?
We don't do Body Count just to keep making records. We have to have the time to do it, to feel like we want to do it. It takes a lot of work and time and energy, and we don't want to waste any of it. This record is a good record. You can hear that we took the time and did the work. It sounds exciting. We don't want to saturate the market with Body Count product every year that might be good or might be bad. Right now is a good time for Body Count.
How do you feel about going out on the road with these really heavy bands like Cannibal Corpse and Suicide Silence?
Oh, I think we fit right in. I feel really good about that. Korn actually opened for us in Europe, so sharing the stage with them is not that far-fetched. I think we fit exactly with those bands, though Ice doesn't growl. But we're definitely a match with the same energy level. We're singing the same thing, but people understand what Ice is saying. [Laughs]
Do you have any touring plans for after the Mayhem Fest?
We're going to do spot dates here and there on the weekends. Ice is going back to "Law and Order," because that's like his day-job. And next year, we're planning to do Europe. And hopefully, we'll be able to begin working on a record while we're in Europe and try new songs out on the road. The band is good right now.
Since the theme of Body Count in 2014 seems to be one of coming full-circle, does the message from 1992 still stand? Would you still f*** a Martian?
[Laughs] You have no idea until one comes across your path! You might be like, "Whoa, never saw one of those before!" But you never know, it could be a fun night! [Laughs]

I have an plane surface(all the z of vertexes equal to 0.0) with many vertexes, and attached the texture on it with lighting off by:
device->SetRenderState(D3DRS_LIGHTING, false);
And there are shades in the render result.
I tried to turn off the normal too:
device->SetRenderState(D3DRS_NORMALIZENORMALS, false);
It doesn't work also.
Does anybody know what's going on?
I just want the texture shows distorted without any light effect. And the surface is from tessellated NURBS control points.
The color of texture seems changed by VertexShader, is that possible? and how to solve it?
The pure white texture rendered like below:
question is changed to directx - texture render result is incorrect

Encyclopedia of Jazz Musicians
Modirzadeh, Hafez (aka Modir)
Modirzadeh, Hafez (aka Modir), saxophone, composer,educator, author; b. Durham, NC, 3 May 1962.
He lived in Durham from 1962-67, and Marin County, California, from 1968-70. He also lived in Montpellier, France, from 1970-72, and in Tehran, Iran, from 1972-73. He lived in San Jose, California, from 1973-83 when finishing a BA in Music from San Jose State University. He moved to Boston to attend New England Conservatory's MM in Third Stream in Fall of 1983, and then lived in Los Angeles from 1984-86 while completing an MA at UCLA in ethnomusicology. Moved to New York City in 1987, attended Wesleyan University's world music program from 1988-90, in Middletown, Connecticut, completing a PhD in 1992. From 1990-98, he taught at San Jose State University's Improvised Music Studies Program, and from 1998-2003, he has been Assistant Professor at San Francisco State's Jazz and World Music Program. His mother is Joan Quilter (b. 1937) and his father is Jamal Modir (b. 1935), the latter, a Persian drummer. He has a brother, Khayyam Modirzadeh (b. 1961), and a sister Leyla Modirzadeh (b. 1967) In the San Francisco Bay Area from 1977-83, he got informal saxophone lessons from Sonny Stitt, James Moody, Joe Henderson, Sonny Simmons, Paul Contos, Norman Williams. Since 1983, he has studied Persian classical music with Mahmoud Zoufonoun, violinist and tar player. At the New England Conservatory, Boston 1983, he took formal saxophone lessons with Joe Allard, and studied Lydian Chromatic Concept with George Russell and Arranging with Jimmy Giuffre. At UCLA, Los Angeles 1984-86, he studied ethnomusicology with Ali Jihad Racy and Nazir Jairazbhoy.
At Wesleyan, Middletwon 1988-90, he studied West African music with Abraham Adzinyah, South Indian Music with T. Vishwanathan and Ramnad Raghvan, Japanese music with Sumarsam, and conceptual studies with Jon Barlow and Anthony Braxton. Modirzadeh has focused on integrative directions for the practice and education of jazz and world music. On both international and local fronts, he is active in the realms of performing, teaching, recording, publishing, and presenting cross-cultural perspectives regarding musical culture, tradition and innovation, and individual representations thereof. Dr. Modirzadeh received an M.A. from UCLA ('86) and a PhD from Wesleyan ('92), both in ethnomusicology, and continues to develop an interdisciplinary musical approach he calls "Chromodal Discourse". From Tehran to Brown Universities, Chromodal theory has been presented within both musical and scientific academic arenas, most recently acknowledged as a formal subject for the Doctorate of Musical Arts by the University of Madison, Wisconsin (Frey 2002). Modirzadeh's contributing research has been published in such journals as the Pacific Review of Ethnomusicology (1986), Horn Call (1995-96), Music in China (2000), Ethnomusicology (2001),and Black Music Research (2002). Over the last three decades, his work on saxophones and a variety of other reeds has been documented on dozens of creative jazz and world LP/CD releases, listed in the Penguin Guide to Jazz, and in 1999, contributing to a Grammy nomination for Anthony Brown's Asian American Orchestra. Modirzadeh has appeared from the Berlin to Monterey Jazz Festivals, and has performed with such artists as Omar Sosa, Don Cherry, Peter Apfelbaum, Steve Lacy, Fred Ho, Zakir Hussein, Oliver Lake, as well as many on the local San Francisco creative music scene. Dr. Modirzadeh's composed works have been supported by two National Endowment for the Arts Fellowships ('89, '91), Other Minds (1998), and the Djerassi Composer's Residency Program (2003), while his educational outreach has been repeatedly funded by California Arts Council Artist in Residency (1996-99). Through the 90's, he coordinated San Jose State University's Improvised Music Studies Program until joining the music faculty at San Francisco State in 1998 to develop programs in both jazz and world music and dance.
He's married to Yeganeh Modirzadeh (b. 1964, Tehran, Iran) and has two sons: Safa (b. 1991) and Erfan (b. 1993).

Full text not available from this repository.
In his Hettner-lecture, Michael Watts asserted that violence might be understood as ´struggle over geography´. Surprisingly, geography is largely missing in the contemporary debates on the incidence of civil wars, the dynamics of war economies and "new" wars. These debates have produced universalistic, nomothetical statements about the causes and dynamics of contemporary war economies and have focused on analyzing the economic incentives of combatants and fighters, thereby neglecting the spatial contextualities and institutional ambiguities of war economies. In this paper, we suggest to bring geography back in focus and develop a conceptual framework that studies geographies of violence using three analytical concepts: governable spaces, spaces of agency and subjectivities. These categories are linked with the politics of scale. We illustrate this framework with examples from the Sri Lankan and Sierra Leonean civil wars. Our studies suggest that geographies of violence produce complex entanglements of survival and war economies that are manifested in the spatio-temporal dynamics of different actors´ vulnerabilities and agencies.

College Hockey:What I think I learned about what I didn't know about
Ferris is for real
One of the toughest things for this sport's observers this season has been learning about the new teams to the league. There was an assumption that Ferris State would be one of the WCHA's better teams, but I'm not sure if I saw this start coming.
Then again, other than reading some clips, what did I know about Garrett Thompson or Justin Buzzeo, who lead the league in scoring with 14 points apiece, or goalie C.J. Motte, who is 8-0-1.
"[Motte is] a big-time goalie," Bowling Green coach Chris Bergeron told USCHO. "I'm not sure the WCHA knew what kind of goalie he is. He's an all-WCHA, All-American goalie."
Good to know.
With a tie and a win over Bowling Green, the Bulldogs extended their unbeaten streak to seven games and got a bit of cushion in the WCHA standings.
Uniform schedule, please
Midway through the month of November, the WCHA standings are beginning to take shape – sorta.
It continues to baffle me that the league (and other college hockey leagues) doesn't have a more uniform schedule that keeps teams as close together as possible in conference games played.
Bemidji State has played eight conference games already. Four teams have played six games, and five teams have played just four games. How can we gauge where teams are at?
Besides knowing that Ferris State is good and Alabama Huntsville is not, the other eight teams are bunched up.
While it will take awhile to even out more, the good news is that all 10 teams will be in action against each other this weekend.
No offense, but …
One of the most baffling stats of the season so far is Minnesota State's lack of scoring prowess. With the WCHA preseason player of the year (Matt Leitner) and what, on paper, seemed to be the deepest collection of forwards in the league, the Mavericks are averaging just 1.9 goals per game, which ranks 54th in the country.
After getting swept 4-1 and 3-0 against No. 1 Minnesota over the weekend, captain Johnny McInnis told The (Mankato) Free Press: "I don't want to say it's embarrassing because we played the best team in the country. But it's pretty unacceptable as a team to score one goal on the weekend. I don't care who we're playing."
Meanwhile, Michigan Tech isn't doing much better, averaging just 2.08 goals per game (51st in the nation), although that number has risen over the last four games, as the Huskies won three of their last four games and split a home series against Lake Superior State this weekend.
Ferris State, meanwhile, ranks third in the nation in scoring at 3.82 goals per game.

Drake and Rihanna are obviously dating this time around but so far they haven't actually been caught in any type of excessive PDA situations. However, there is a photo circulating that reportedly shows the pair kissing in a club. Is it really them though?
According to Media Take Out, Drizzy and Rih were partying in an LA nightclub and seemed to be having the time of their lives. There are photos to back this up, so they definitely were at a club and they were there together. But a grainy image sent in by a reader may or may not be the pair making out in that same club on that same night.
It's hard to tell but it looks like Rihanna has her arm around Drake's neck and her somewhat iconic long fingernails can be seen hanging over his shoulder. The photo is too dark and fuzzy to say for sure though.
If it is Drake and Rihanna, then people should be glad. Drizzy always wanted Rihanna so he obviously won in the end and she seems happy. So alls well that ends well, right?

According to Monday's My Fox Tampa Bay, a Sarasota, Fla., man is accused of dousing a puppy, who was in the midst of a seizure, with hot sauce.
Early Sunday morning, 47-year-old Ephrian Myles is accused of becoming upset with the three-month-old pup, named "Gizmo," who was having seizure, and yelping.
Myles' girlfriend, Kelly Ripley, told the authorities that the cruel act took place because the pup's cries were "annoying" Myles.
Ripley was able to whisk the Dachshund mix pup out of the home - she called the police and went to a local fire department for assistance.
Officers Jessica Sullivan had been called to meet Ripley at the fire station; she described what she saw:
"It couldn't open its eyes,
One eyes was completely swollen shut and the other was barely open."
"I picked it up, looked at it, brought it to my face, and I could smell the pepper and the vinegar. I looked at [Officer Arena] and was like, this dog has hot sauce on it,"
Though the hot sauce covered little Gizmo's face and body, he is expected to make a full recovery.
According to the Bradenton Herald, the pup was turned over to the animal services and Myles was arrested on a felony charge of aggravated animal cruelty.

In Miami, residential properties are selling briskly and transactions of commercial and industrial buildings and land continue to gather steam. As reported by The Miami Herald, Miami's real estate market is slowly creeping back to normal. This previously distressed market is turning around, as Realtor.com notes, and every seller is looking to get top dollar for their property. However, some are not aware of how to pinpoint the right value for their properties, while others think that by placing a high asking price they will attract buyers willing to pay the most. Today, pricing Miami real estate for sale is both art and science.
Any property in Miami, be it a single family home, a condo, an apartment building, or a warehouse, that is priced at market will attract more inquiries than an overpriced one. Further, a property that is priced slightly below market will probably attract a large number of inquiries, showings and, as we are experiencing, even create a bidding war that will result in a higher selling price than originally anticipated. On the other hand, an overpriced property often languishes on the market, generating neither inquiries nor showings and, not even remotely, any offers.
How can a seller decide what the right price for their property is? In Miami, a significant proportion of real estate sales is the result of foreclosures, short sales, bankruptcies, negotiated agreements between private lenders and borrowers, and even between family members, employers and employees, commercial creditors and debtors, not to mention other distress situations such as illness, divorce, etc. At the same time, as buyers take advantage of the low prices and interest rates, inventories have tightened, stabilizing prices and pushing builders to jump-start their ventures. Lennar, for example, has bought unfinished residential projects that are now selling quickly, and many smaller builders, such as Adrian Builders, have begun fresh construction. New small office buildings, shopping centers and condo warehouses are also now ready for occupancy or soon will be. Thus, it is impossible to arrive at a good estimate of value without extensive investigation and analysis of recent sales and current offerings.
For a seller, it is difficult to find out the right asking price on his or her own, since that takes researching not only recent, comparable sales in the neighborhood, but also the circumstances behind every sale, the condition of the property and even, if possible, the negotiations and concessions that took place between buyer and seller before closing. This is where a Realtor® comes in. As a professional real estate sales agent, he or she will have the necessary tools to conduct the research that will bring top dollar at the time of sale. In addition, the experienced agent will also understand the recent gyrations that values have gone through in this area and how the uptick in sales requires a slightly more optimistic (albeit conservative) view when setting a price so that the seller doesn't leave any money on the table. In addition, his or her responsibility will include looking into every comparable property that is currently for sale and the ones that have been offered for sale in the recent past, even if they were later taken off the market. This involves more than desk work, as it is important to physically see these comparables to determine their desirability in terms of condition and location.
The publication Real Estate Forum mentions an "impending boom" in Miami real estate. If that is the case, beware: Don't leave money on the table. If you are thinking about selling in this evolving Miami market, you must price and position your property conscientiously in order to attract the qualified buyer who is willing to pay the most. It's a job best left to the professionals.

Brandi Glanville is in make-up mode. One week after the "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star called a truce with co-star Joyce Giraud, she patched things up with her estranged father.
On the Jan. 20 episode of the Bravo reality show, Glanville invited her family to a book signing in her hometown of Sacramento, but unfortunately her father didn't like how he was portrayed in his daughter's bestselling book, Drinking and Tweeting: And Other Brandi Blunders.
"I said he was a drug dealer," the 40-year-old reality star explained to co-star Lisa Vanderpump. "He was a marijuana grower and distributor. I haven't talked to him in months. He won't even answer my texts."
The TV family reunion was awkward at first; Glanville told her dad "Happy Birthday and "I love you" multiple times before he finally returned the sentiment. In the end, Guy awkwardly said, "My name's Guy … I'm glad I came. I came for your mom. And we will go forward. And the outfit looks really good on you."
Glanville's "RHOBH" co-stars reacted to the reunion via their Bravo blogs.
Joyce Giraud wrote: "I really liked seeing Brandi fix things with her father, because life is so short that we can't waste time being upset with the people we love."
And Carlton Gebbia added: "It was nice seeing Brandi with her book signing in Sacramento with the support of Yolanda and her family. Although I don't always agree with some of the things she says I do think Brandi has a good heart and it was lovely seeing her reuniting with her Dad."
In an interview last year with Sactown magazine, Glanville praised her parents' work ethic. "[My dad] doesn't like that word, 'dealer,'" she said. "He was a distributor. He grew [marijuana] in our backyard and gave it to the dealers to deal. It was a means to an end and a way to make ends meet. We had a lot of bills and there were always a lot of financial issues. [My parents] sent us to private schools … because other schools around us were dangerous. They were the hardest-working people I knew. My dad had three jobs. He was a janitor, he worked at the gas station and at a grocery store. My mom was a housekeeper. I used to clean houses with her in the summers during high school. I had a very humble but great upbringing. "
"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" airs on Mondays at 8:00 PM ET on Bravo.

Age 13 is an educational film by Sid Davis released in 1955. It is property of the public domain. The film centers around Andrew, a thirteen-year-old boy stricken with grief over the recent death of his mother. On the day of her passing her radio stops working, and Andrew believes that if he can repair it his mother will return. He is left with a cold, emotionally distant stepfather. He is also teased relentlessly in school, which leads him to bring a gun with him. During an altercation with another student in a physical education class, he fires the gun, injuring no one. Following the incident he receives counseling, is administered a Rorschach inkblot test and is encouraged to open up emotionally. However, his stepfather becomes increasingly brutal. Andrew commits a virtual murder by destroying a photograph of his stepfather, whom he blames for his mother's death; afraid his feelings will lead him to actual homicide, he runs away. By film's end he has recovered, and is adopted by his aunt and her husband.
Musician Kevin Moore selected this film as inspiration for the Chroma Key album Graveyard Mountain Home. The film is included on DVD in a special edition of the album, playing at half speed and featuring the album's music soundtrack as opposed to the original.
Graveyard Mountain Home is the third studio album released under the name Chroma Key by American keyboardist Kevin Moore. It was released on November 8, 2004 by InsideOut Music. Moore originally started work on the album in 2003, planning to release a less electronica-influenced album than previous Chroma Key albums, but put it aside to work on the first OSI album. He then moved to Istanbul, Turkey, where he wrote Ghost Book, the soundtrack to the film Okul. Enjoying the experience of writing music to film, Moore scrapped his previous plans for the third Chroma Key album, instead writing an album as an alternate soundtrack to an already-existing film.
Moore found the social guidance film Age 13 in the Prelinger Archives, which served as his main inspiration. He slowed the film down to half its original playback speed to allow a full album to be written around the twenty-five minute film. With complete creative control over the album, Moore was free to experiment, sometimes writing music "not necessarily to always match the images on the screen, but to sometimes play against it." The deluxe edition of the album contains the film in its full length, played at half speed, with the album as a soundtrack in place of the original audio.
Critical reception of Graveyard Mountain Home was generally positive. Critics noted that the album was a departure from Moore's previous works, and that it was best experienced as an alternate soundtrack to Age 13. Moore played songs from Graveyard Mountain Home live for the first time in a small club in Istanbul in 2007, and planned to tour more extensively in the future.

LAREDO, TX (Webb County) – Webb County Sheriff's Office deputies on Thursday evening intercepted a small dosage of heroin intended to make its way into the Webb County Jail, making this the second similar incident in as many days.
Laredo Police Department initially brought Mauricio Alvarado, 24, to the jail at 9:00 p.m. on criminal trespassing and theft charges. However, during intake procedures at the jail, correctional officers noticed a small plastic baggie in Alvarado's belly button. Further inspection revealed the substance to be heroin.
Gonzalez was additionally charged with prohibited substance in a correctional facility, felony 3. He remains at the Webb County Jail without bond on all three charges.
"The interception of this drug shows how desperate criminals can get in order keep their habits going," said Sheriff Martin. "But is also shows that our correctional officers are highly trained to find the drugs, no matter how creative the inmates try to get."

There are unique challenges inherent in raising a child with special needs, and this is especially so in the internationally mobile lifestyle of the Foreign Service. There has been a significant effort to increase the number of programs for children with special needs in American-International schools around the world. However, the quality of these programs varies greatly from school to school, and even from year to year. While more children who have mild learning difficulties are adequately served in international schools, children with moderate to severe difficulties still encounter major challenges. In addition to the lack of available programs overseas, very often there is also a lack of other support or therapeutic specialists to serve the requirements of special needs children.
Always remember, you are your child's best advocate. The Foreign Service has procedures in place to help you find the right resources and educational options for your child.
Please contact the Regional Education Officers (REOs) in the Office of Overseas Schools (OS) with any questions that you may have regarding educating your special needs children overseas. The REOs are professional educators and always available to advise you. OS also has a parent resource page that contains resources you will find useful as you educate your special needs child abroad and a list of schools that offer support to children with special needs.
In the Medical Services Office, the Child and Family Program will assist Foreign Service families with Special Needs educational issues.

One Man Flown to Hospital After Mobile Home Fire
Written by Your 5News Team
Last updated on February 11, 2013 @ 1:06PM
Created on February 09, 2013 @ 8:05PM
One man had to be flown to the hospital after trying to put out a trailer fire.
The fire started just before 4:00 p.m. at a mobile home on Owings Road in Willard. Firefighters told 5 News the trailer was being used as a storage area and no one was living there at the time.
Two men nearby tried to put out that fire, but one man in his late 40's somehow burned his arms and the back of his head. He had to be flown to the West Penn Burn Center in Pittsburgh.
Firefighters were able to put out the fire within minutes once they got on scene. There's no word on how the fire started or if it's suspicious.

Ford Motor Company is one of the best names in U.S. auto industry. The company has been manufacturing cars, vans and SUVs for the past 110 years. Its vehicles are not just sold in North America; rather they are really popular in Europe and Asia as well.
The "Go Further" Slogan
Ford's slogan "go further" is what they actually do at the company. The engineers and other officials working at the company put their best in manufacturing the finest roadrunners in history. They create attractive, reliable, sturdy, well equipped and comfortable vehicles.
If you are looking for used Ford cars for sale then go no further than Autoway Ford. With a wide range of vehicles, efficient staff and quality services, it is one of the finest auto dealerships in the country. Cars sold under this dealership's roof have been closely inspected and their aspects are honestly disclosed to the customers. As far as options are concerned, Autoway Ford offers numerous Ford models, one of which will surely suit your taste.
Ford Torino
Ford Torino is amongst the best muscle cars built in the United States. This solid vehicle had engines up to 7.0 liters in size. The size, looks, horsepower, speed and especially the sound of this vehicle proved its muscular strength.
Ford used this vehicle to enter in several NASCAR events. A movie titled 'Gran Torino' was released in the year 2008 to define a Ford employee's dedication towards his company and his favorite ride. Numerous Torino models were created within a decade and all of them were sold hand-to-hand.
The fashion of keeping muscle cars was limited to automobile fanatics, and the general public wanted more compact, yet stylish vehicles. This was when Ford launched the Mustang.
The vehicle was launched in the 60s parallel to Torino, but its target customers were different. The Mustang has been in production since 1964 till now. This amazing pony car has been used in several movies, is owned by numerous celebs, and it is well known for its solid performance.
More than 1million Mustangs have been sold until now and the numbers are still getting better. This ride can travel faster than 150mph; even the Mustang of 1969 easily crossed this speed. Modern Shelby version claims to cross 200mph. You can ask for the Mustang of your choice at Autoway Ford.
Family Cars
If you are in search of family cars, Autoway Ford provides a number of options to choose from. Here are some of them:
The Ford Escape
The Escape was launched back in 2001 and it is giving a tough competition to competitive SUVs such as the Rav4 and the CRV. The biggest plus point of Escape is its cheaper price tag, without having any substantial cuts in quality.
The Ford Fiesta
Fiesta is one of the cheaper cars offered by Ford. This vehicle has small engine size such as 1.0 L, 1.3L, and 1.7L etc. It provides good fuel economy and plenty of room for a small family.
Both Escape and Fiesta have got excellent ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Overall, you can easily buy a Ford vehicle of your choice at this dedicated auto dealership, or to get different vehicles you can check Autoway Nissan.

Breaking bad, breaking casual, breaking the habit.
Have you ever noticed that as far as t-shirts go, its more a matter of bands,rather than series or movies? It's always about the guitar and bass players. Well, let's change that a little bit and get creative.
There's a craze about the TV series Breaking Bad. I haven't seen it, but I randomly saw episode endings and a few trailers about it. It doesn't sound bad, maybe it'll go on the list. And the big fuss is around the central character, Heisenberg. The guys from Burton saw the opportunity and made a fan white t-shirt. It's simple, to the point, and doesn't look like a groupie t-shirt. We like it a lot!
A casual checker shirt to wear it with matches with the brown jeans. The color of the jeans is interesting and intense, not camel, not beige, but a great brown.
Always wear your All Star shoes with pride. Grey goes well with the other colors, so they blend in the outfit nicely.
Of course, there's another "surprise" if you may ! It's interesting if you get sunglasses similar to the ones Heisenberg has!
That way,you can see how many of the people you meet on the way figure it out.

If you bought a Windows 7 PC on or after June 2nd 2012, then you are entitled to an upgrade to Windows 8 Pro for just $14.99. The upgrade has been quite easy to obtain until now.
Before all you had to do was enter the name and manufacture of your Windows 7 PC. Consumers wishing to upgrade now must enter their Windows 7 licence key to obtain the cheap upgrade to Windows 8.
We are unsure as to why the further validation is required but we are speculating that it is the result of users abusing the upgrade system.

Department stores have borne the brunt of the widening rich-poor gap. While the rich continue to patronize luxury retailers and off-price retailers gain resonance with penny-pinching consumers, department store operators have resorted to store closures and lay-offs to keep themselves alive. Is Kohl's (NYSE:KSS) any different from its peers?
It's possible to draw insights from peers like Burlington Stores (NYSE:BURL) and Kirkland's (NASDAQ:KIRK) to gain a better understanding of Kohl's competitive advantages.
Attractive value proposition
Consumers are always looking to get a bigger bang for their buck. In other words, they want retailers that can provide the best of both worlds in terms of low prices and differentiated products.
While Kohl's has traditionally been known as a family focused, value-oriented department store, it has sought to further cement its positioning. Kohl's has attracted and rewarded its loyal customer base with its Kohl's Cash and Kohl's Charge Savings programs in the past. Under the Kohl's Cash scheme, customers are presented with one $10 Kohl's Cash coupon for every $50 spent. On the other hand, Kohl's Charge Card customers are rewarded with monthly discounts of up to 30%.
In addition, it has further extended its loyalty program Kohl's Rewards, which was first piloted in Texas in late 2012. Kohl's Rewards guarantees members eight savings offers annually and a $5 reward for every 100 points accumulated.
Fast forward to the first quarter of 2014, and Kohl's Rewards is now available in California, Texas, and Pittsburgh, and the company plans to expand it to Milwaukee and Seattle this year. Based on its experience in Texas, stores that offer Kohl's Rewards have seen a 150-250 basis-point difference in comparable store sales growth versus other stores.
With respect to its merchandising, Kohl's prides itself on its 'Only at Kohl's' strategy, which employs a good mix of private label and exclusive brands. While Kohl's has historically delivered excellent gross margins in the mid-30s and double-digit operating margins because of its focus on higher-margin private label products, it's careful not to alienate customers who might prefer national brands.
Kohl's increased the proportion of national brands as a percentage of its total product portfolio from 44% in the second quarter of 2013 to 47% in the third quarter. Kohl's has stated that it will maintain a balance between its high-margin private label products and crowd-pulling national brands to maximize customer traffic, while keeping margins at a healthy level.
Another retailer which has gone down the dual path of product differentiation and low cost strategies is off-price retailer Burlington Stores. Similarly to its off-price peers, Burlington Stores relies on low prices to attract customers. Its 'Everyday Low Price' model offers 60%-70% discounts off of items sold at regular department stores.
When it comes to product differentiation, Burlington focuses on major, nationally recognized brands. While its off-price peers typically stock up on pack-away merchandise and pre-season cuttings, Burlington capitalizes on in-season opportunistic purchases so its assortment remains on-trend and relevant with its customers. Support for this strategy comes from its large average store size of between 50,000 and 80,000 square feet, which allows it to sell a wider range of products.
Store differentiation
Unlike most of its retail peers which have stores located in malls, Kohl's has differentiated itself with a focus on off-mall locations. As of end-2013, Kohl's has close to 93% of its stores situated off-mall in areas such as strip centers along with free-standing locations.
Imitation is the best form of flattery. Kirkland's, a multi-channel specialty retailer of home decor and accessories, has also transitioned to an off-mall strategy. The proportion of off-mall locations among its stores has increased from approximately 50% in 2006 to about 90% now. In its most recent 2013 10-K filing, Kirkland's claimed that its off-mall stores generated higher revenue than its mall-based stores.
Off-mall locations represent a win-win situation for both consumers and retailers like Kohl's and Kirkland's. From the perspective of shoppers, malls have become too large for their own good as they have become complex mazes. As a result, malls have become increasingly difficult to navigate and have lost popularity with time-pressed consumers. In contrast, off-mall locations tend to be closer to consumers, which makes them more convenient for regular purchases.
While Kohl's doesn't disclose its sales per square foot by location type, research conducted by McGladrey in October 2013 indicated that Kohl's enjoyed a 40% premium in overall sales per square foot over a competing department store operator with a similar average store size of approximately 90,000 square feet. This validates the view that Kohl's off-mall locations are more valuable.
Viewed from the retailers' angle, off-mall locations typically offer lower rents than mall-based stores. Kohl's also has a higher chance of becoming the anchor tenant in such off-mall locations, which gives it further bargaining power in lease negotiations. Moreover, Kohl's stores are also far more visible in strip centers and freestanding locations than they would be if they were part of large regional malls.
In addition to store location, the in-store shopping experience is an equally important component of customer retention. Kohl's also has an edge here, with about half of its current stores either newly built or remodeled in the past five years. This ensures that Kohl's retains its sense of 'newness' in front of its customers.
Foolish final thoughts
In the first quarter of 2014, Kohl's reported disappointing results, with a 3% decline in comparable-sales growth and a 9% fall in diluted earnings per share. Nevertheless, Kohl's stands out among its department store peers with its value pricing, dual focus on national and private label brands, and off-mall store strategy.

Apple recently recruited a secret-development "dream team" to guarantee its newest smart device was kept hidden from the public for as long as possible. But the secret is out, and some early viewers are claiming its everyday impact could trump the iPod, iPhone, and the iPad. In fact, ABI Research predicts 485 million of this type of device will be sold per year. But one small company makes Apple's gadget possible. And its stock price has nearly unlimited room to run for early-in-the-know investors. To be one of them, and see Apple's newest smart gizmo, just click here!

In a twitch interview with Geoff Keighley today, Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima said that he does not anticipate seeing Snake appear as a playable character in the next Smash Bros. game.
Snake of course made his series debut in Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Nintendo Wii. His addition to the game came as a shock, being the first third party character to appear in the Smash Bros. series at that time before being joined by Sonic the Hedgehog.
In the interview Kojima expressed that it was not likely that Snake would be returning to Smash and that ultimately the decision will be left to the director of the game, Masahiro Sakurai. That being said, Kojima did note that he really wanted his character to make a return.
"I'm not working on that game, but i don't think it's likely. If Mr. Sakurai is watching this, hopefully we see Snake."
The Metal Gear series, despite being third party, has plenty of history with Nintendo. The first Metal Gear game was ported onto the Nintendo Entertainment System and as recently as 2012 we have seen Snake grace a Nintendo console in Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D for the 3DS.
With yet another third party addition being added to the roster in Mega Man and numerous characters that were thought to be cut, such as Toon Link, making a return, it appears that Snake could still have a chance to rejoin the fight. Like Kojima said, it will come down to the preferences of Sakurai in the end.

Kamanin does not minimise Korolev's key role in creating the Soviet space program, but believes the collectives can continue the program without him. In truth, Kamanin feels Korolev has made many errors of judgment in the last three years that have hurt the program. Mishin, Korolev's first deputy, will take over management of Korolev's projects. Kamanin feels that Mishin is a clever and cultured engineer, but he is no Korolev. Over the next three days the cosmonauts console Korolev's widow.
Korolev's surgery was done personally by Petrovskiy, the Minister of Health. Korolev was told the surgery would take only a few minutes, but after five hours on the operating table, his body could no longer endure the insult, and he passed away.

How does your body know when it is infected with a virus or bacteria so it can invoke a fever or ramp up the immune system?
During infection certain macromolecules present in the pathogens (pathogen associated molecular patterns) such as lipopolysaccharide launch the innate immune response, through toll like receptors. This leads to production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and also other inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins, thereby causing inflammation and fever.
An opinion by non-technical observer.
If you know the function of a hive, you know that bees communicate with each other, touching and rubbing chemical information. In a few minutes the information reaches the center of the hive and returns to individuals which are caring of it. It is widely accepted that a hive is a unique individual, composed of thousands of insects each with its own function.
I believe that we can make the observation reverse. The man (and animals) are agglomerations of cells that pass chemically information to each other. Information reaches the central system, which responds by activating the necessary functions.
In case of infection, viral or bacterial, blood flow to the affected place very quickly, scrolling faster and thus raising the temperature. Similarly in the blood activates the necessary antibodies, which communicate with each other chemically referring where necessary. Pile up in the affected areas, resulting in swelling.
Other functions, such as sweating, vomiting or pus, are ways to excrete toxins (such should not be blocked). If we imagine the human body as a great hive where each cell is a member that transmits information and responds to stimulation of central system, acting in cooperation, the operation according to me is very clear.
How do the bees know that they are dying, if not passing to collecting companions honey too thick? Sorry for non-technical opinion, if not useful delete it.

Geez, anyone else's first thought when they saw this article - Late April fools day article? Seems not thou .
NZX-listed fast food company BurgerFuel Worldwide (NZX:BFW) has sold the Master License agreement for the rights to BurgerFuel Iraq.
BurgerFuel chief executive international markets Chris Mason, who is based in Dubai, said, "We're moving forward in our plans to establish BurgerFuel in the Middle East by adding Iraq to our other territories in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.
"Whilst Iraq poses new challenges - it's another important region and we think early establishment will allow time for us to eventually open a number of restaurants there."
The first BurgerFuel in Iraq will open in Sulaymaniyah, which lies in the Kurdish speaking region of Northern Iraq known as Iraqi Kurdistan.
The area is the only legally defined region within Iraq that has its own separate democratic government for its population of nearly five million people.
The Iraqi consortium that has bought the rights for BurgerFuel Iraq also own 50% of Iraq's North Bank financial institution as well as 50% of Pepsi Iraq.
With Pepsi being the dominant soft drink in Iraq, the consortium is looking forward to adding BurgerFuel to their stable of successful brands.
One of the new principals, Raad Braich, is already very familiar with the BurgerFuel brand and adds the Master Franchise agreement for BurgerFuel in Iraq to his interests as a board member of the Iraqi National Business Council.
"We've found the Iraq partnership an interesting prospect, with strong and established business partners who approached us already having a good understanding of the BurgerFuel brand as well as the local Iraqi market" said BurgerFuel Worldwide chief executive, Josef Roberts.
"We are interested in all global territories and we seek to take advantage of our non-American, pure New Zealand positioning, wherever we can."
BurgerFuel is part of the New Zealand Trade & Enterprise Beachheads programme designed for high-growth New Zealand companies.
Other sites due to open soon in the Middle East will be located in the Dubai Mall (UAE) and in the Al Shatea Mall (Saudi Arabia).

5 Comments & Questions
i am surprised by the readers' comments: first of all, Iraq is not that dangerous, today, as you think it is. A lot of global businesses are moving here rapidly. it's a rich, developing multi-ethnic and multi-religious nation of 35 million people. Investments in Iraq are more fruitful than other areas such as Dubai or Turkey. Iraq's Kurdistan Region is as safe as New Zealand or elsewhere: there hasn't been any terrorist attack here!
With Pepsi being the dominant soft drink in Iraq, the consortium is looking forward to adding BurgerFuel to their stable of successful brands.

Offense, defense and special teams all looked healthy for West Las Vegas in Friday night's 40-14 romp against shorthanded Española Valley out of Class 4A.
Nicholas Maestas and Julian Martinez were among the Dons who shined on defense, holding the Sundevils scoreless until early in the fourth quarter.
George Martinez and Jordan Lopez, who hooked up for West's only score in week one vs. Socorro, opened the evening with a 37-yard touchdown strike.

Justin picked up a botched snap and ran with the football on Friday night.
Justin, the team's new punter, glided like a gazelle amid a group of hungry predators and picked up a first down for the Cardinals with a 15-yard gain. The Cardinal Stadium crowd cheered its approval.
More importantly, as far as his dad was concerned, Justin didn't get mauled by Lovington's hulking defense.

Las Vegas police are seeking a man who allegedly kicked a pregnant woman in the stomach during a domestic dispute early Saturday morning and then managed to escape when officers showed up at the house.

The population declines in San Miguel and Mora counties and its rural neighbors over the last decade are setting the stage for a difficult session for area lawmakers as they head to Santa Fe to redraw legislative boundaries.
State senate and house districts in this area will need to expand to pick up the necessary population, and there's even a possibility of area senate and house seats being combined, resulting in a loss of representation in this area.
State Police Agent Paul Chavez will be allowed to testify for the prosecution during Richard Baca's voluntary manslaughter trial next week. But he won't be able to testify that the location of one of the casings found at the scene indicates that Baca fired one of the shots while holding the weapon outside his car window.
District Judge Eugenio Mathis issued his ruling Wednesday after holding an evidentiary hearing on the ejection pattern analysis Chavez used to reach his conclusion.
Baca is accused of shooting postal carrier Benito Lemos three times.

I went to this talk and very
From Dominic Belfield: I went to this talk and very much enjoyed what Bibiana Sucre had to say about the whole project and island. Of particular interest was what she had to say about the effect of WLT's involvement in the securing of the site, and its impact on the local population. The local islanders clearly felt an overall boost to their flagging morale and developed a renewed sense of purpose when they could see that there was 'World interest' in their island and wildlife. They now believed that they had allies around the world where before they had been up against large mining companies only wanting to extract sands and mimerals, while leaving them with not much more than big holes in their island. This positive reinforcing of the benefits of wildlife protection on general morale and regional self-esteem should help to ensure the long-term success of the project and act as an example to others in similar positions. It's been brilliant for the parrots there too, no longer just fodder for the (illegal) pet trade, the parrots are now firmly a symbol of societal, as well as ecological, health. Well Done ProVita and well done WLT; good job all round!

Oracle VM Templates
By Wcoekaer-Oracle on Aug 05, 2008
Last year at Oracle World, Oracle launched a new exciting product called Oracle VM. It is our own x86/x86-64 virtualization product solution which adds a real hypervisor underneath our full product stack. For those that forgot - go to http://www.oracle.com/virtualization for more information.
This gives us a very nice top to bottom product layer :
application (our various applications offerings) -> middle tier (our various middleware suite offerings) -> database tier (our various database products) -> OS (Oracle Enterprise Linux) -> Virtualization (Oracle VM).
All fully certified and supported by Oracle, top to bottom.
All fully managed by Oracle Enterprise Manager and Oracle VM Manager.
So what would be the logical next step ? Well - make pre-installed and pre-configured virtual machines of these components and deployment becomes a "download -> start virtual machine" process.
In the virtualization world most people talk about virtual appliances however we decided to call it virtual machine templates. The reason for this is that we are looking at more complex and more feature rich product components. In many cases people want to make changes to the installations. We have to be able to do upgrades and apply security patchsets and so on. So we decided not to create blackboxes but create virtual machine images which have been pre-configured with recommended patches, recommended OS settings, then the Oracle product on top with the recommended patchset level and also other changes and fixes applied.
The first few templates are now already available for download. There are 2 siebel software templates, one for the middle tier and one for the database and there are the recently released Oracle Enterprise Manager templates, also one middle tier and one database tier.
The downloads might be pretty hefty but once downloaded you can just import these into Oracle VM and start a virtual machine. All you have to do is provide a password or 2 and an ip address and hostname. You then end up with a fully configured Siebel product stack or Enterprise Manager product stack .In the EM one, we even added a virtual disk which contains full yum repositories for Oracle Enterprise Linux so you can do patch management and provisioning out of the box for the OS as well.
The license on these templates contains free download and free trial use with the option to purchase a product license and use in a production environment (for the traditional Oracle products). Oracle VM and Oracle Enterprise Linux are free download and free use.
We will continue to add more templates on a regular basis and enhance existing ones but this is a very exciting project which will help our partners and our customers get started on using Oracle products out of the box. Hope you like it. And.. more to come

Book synopsis
Translations of Cervantes' Don Quijote (1605) take pride of place among foreign literature in China. Despite the contrasts between the two cultures and the passage of four centuries the adventures and misadventures of the Castilian hero have always been popular with Chinese readers.
In this book a corpus-based stylistic study is used to explore two contemporary Mandarin Chinese translations of Don Quijote: those by Yang Jiang (1978) and Liu Jingsheng (1995). Utilising a micro-structural perspective this study suggests explanations for the surprising popularity of Don Quijote in China.
Contents: Construction of a Parallel Corpus of Don Quijote – Corpus Data Retrieval and Annotation – Phraseological Patterns in Yang's Translation – Phraseological Patterns in Liu's Translation – Use of Figurative/Archaic Idioms in the Two Translations – Quantitative Exploration of Style Variation in Liu's Translation.
About the author(s)/editor(s)
The Author: Meng Ji has a Ph.D. from Imperial College London (2009) within the area of corpus-based translation studies focused on the study of phraseology in literary translations into Chinese. She is presently developing an interdisciplinary approach to corpus-based translation studies by integrating methodologies from disciplines including textual statistics, quantitative sociolinguistics and computational stylometry.

I began creating art in my High School years, after taking a number of art courses I began to develop my own style of drawing that I found I enjoyed creating. I have been pursuing this approach during the following years. Recently I have begun experimenting with wood as an artistic medium and also the use of a computer router for design engraving. Since I have only a relative small number of compositions scanned and fully digitized the works displayed on this site are not a full representation of the corpus of my work.
A great deal of what I draw is abstract line drawings, sometimes with color and sometimes kept black and white. While drawing and composing pieces I typically either try to abstract a specific subject, or simply play with the intersecting of lines and textures. For example I find I am very drawn to the shape composition of arthropods, some insects, and sea life in general. Also I really like using space and star-scapes as backgrounds.
There is a sort of binary thought process that goes on for me while drawing. There is me thinking of maps and the geologic and geographic interaction of shapes and textures and there is what I think of as the biological element. Simply but I am trying to envision and the draw a sort of none realistic combination of a landscape with its rivers mountains, cities and other human infrastructure with the different but at times similar layout of a large organism, a biological example being a whale, and a none biologic one being a star-ship. I was always really attracted to science fiction visually as a child an much of that was the images of massive star ships that are part of that genre, and that visual influence shows in some of my work. Some pieces of mine are intentionally meant to be enormous space craft traversing the cosmos.
Anyway blahblah blah....blah! I could go on about this forever, any questions or comments please direct to management. That would be me via the comment sectionzes, thanks and I hope you enjoy.

- Company: Ray-Ban
- Price: $130 at Net-A-Porter.com

In fashion, everything is cyclical. Such is the case for the latest set of shades from Ray-Ban, the Clubmasters. These frames, which are former stars from both the '50s and '80s, have made a massive comeback. They still sport the all-too-recognizable plastic half-frame that's slightly pointed at the ends, but with this re-imaging, Ray-Ban has gone one step further: Its newest Clubmasters are available not only in traditional black, but also in red, blue and tortoise-shell gray. Even with their new color palette, the Ray-Ban Clubmasters are the tried-and-true sunglasses we know and love from decades past.
Clubmasters not only define a style, they define a decade. When you spot a pair, you're instantly taken back to your favorite memories of the days when the music was good, fashion was loud and John Hughes ruled cinema. That's individualistic power you don't find in today's ubiquitous aviators, shields and wraparounds. Yes, the Ray-Ban Clubmasters are definitely the set of shades for the here and now. They have a look that's all their own and they bring a bit of retro coolness back to a world of mundane sunglasses. With one-of-a-kind framing, Ray-Ban Clubmasters stand alone in a crowd. What's even better is that now you can get them in red, blue or gray -- if black seems a bit too traditional for you. In fact, it's the color options that helped spark the revival, so feel free to be as bold as you want. After all, Clubmasters aren't only about style, they're about lifestyle.
These things just keep coming back around. We saw Clubmasters in the '50s, then they were back in the '80s and now here they are again in '09. Outstanding design and true style always seem to get rediscovered. If you add it all up, Ray-Ban Clubmasters have been around for the better part of half a century -- and if that's not stamina, then what is? It can largely be attributed to the engaging and recognizable appeal that Clubmasters have. We see them and we immediately associate them with the carefree feelings of days gone by. The only problem with nostalgia, though, is that it usually passes. That might be exactly why Ray-Ban Clubmasters continue to pop in and out of the limelight, and that's exactly why they should be added to your sunglasses collection immediately. They represent a retro style that's still cool.
