ASSIA Launches Expresse Solutions to Help Service Providers Drive Business Value and Elevate Brand Loyalty

BOULDER—Senior Nikki Lindow surpassed the 400 career blocks and sophomore Nicole Edelman 2,000 career assists milestones as the University of Colorado volleyball team snap a five-match losing streak by sweeping the Oregon State Beavers (28-26, 25-21, 25-20) Friday night here at the Coors Events Center.
"I'm glad we were not only able to come up with the victory but that we did it in three sets," CU head coach Liz Kritz said. "We had a little gut-check coming off the last swing with the Arizona schools. There were some lulls in play tonight, I talked about it with them in the huddle, I asked them if we were sharp, and they responded 'we were sharp-ish.' They recognize that there is still a better level this team can play at."
The Buffs improve to 16-11 overall and 8-9 in the Pac-12 while OSU falls to 9-19 and 0-17, respectively. CU is now 6-2 in league matches at the Coors Events Center.
"We love this place," Lindow said. "We are warriors for this place. Cal and Stanford were frustrating for us, but we are going to bring full intensity to every game, especially at home. We have major pride for this place, especially for me as a senior."
Lindow had three blocks on the night and now has 401 in her career. She trails only Meaghan Barkman (565), Alison Koepke (441) and Lisa Soullier (412) in the CU record book. Edelman dished out 39 assists in the match and now has 2,001 in her career, becoming the seventh CU player to hit that milestone.
"I am more than excited about getting to 400 blocks," Lindow said. "Blocking is a big part of my game and it's a momentum changer when we get them."
Lindow's first block of the match was the biggest, coming as part of an amazing comeback in the first game. The Buffs staved off a quadruple set-point from the Beavers, down 24-21 and rallied to win 28-26. Junior Kelsey English sparked that run and her kill made it 24-22.
"When we get in those tight situations, there's an eerie, calm confidence with this bunch," Krizta explained. "There have been a lot of sets this year where we have come from behind and I think having done that gives these kids some confidence. They are able to play those tight points."
Lindow then teamed with sophomore Alexis Austin to block OSU's Amanda Brown to make it 24-23. A Lindow kill made tied it 24-24 and then an Austin kill put the Buffs up for the first time since a 6-5 lead early in the game. Austin put the Buffs up 26-25 and after an OSU kill, the Buffs put the first set away with kills from senior Kerra Schroeder and Taylor Simpson.
"It was good to see our team come back and take that first set," Kritza said. "Every team, even as part of a great season, has challenges and we've had some lately. I'm really proud of this group. We had a gut-check coming off the road with our last swing at the Arizona schools."
The Buffs then took control early in the second set, building early 5-1 and 8-2 leads before Oregon State bounced back to tie the set at 10-10. It was then a back-and-forth set and after it was tied 18-18, the Buffs scored seven of the final 10 points of the game to win, 25-21. English again sparked the final run, first with a kill to make it 19-18 and then a block on the next play to open up a 20-18 lead. The Buffs reeled off three straight kills, two from Austin and one from Lindow, all assisted by Edelman, to close out the second set and take a 2-0 advantage.
Senior Elysse Richardson sparked an early run in the third set, serving five straight points with a pair of service aces in there as the Buffs opened up an 8-3 lead. Oregon State pulled within 10-8 midway through the game before CU opened up a 16-9 lead after an English ace. The Beavers made one more run, pulling within 16-14 before the Buffs responded with a 6-2 run to open up a 22-16 lead and hung on for a 25-20 win and sweep in the match.
Austin led the Buffs with 13 kills while hitting .333 and junior Taylor Simpson added 10 kills to go with her five digs and three blocks. Aside from Lindow's three blocks, she had six kills with no errors while hitting .429. English also hit well, .545, with seven kills on just 11 attacks. Edelman made good on three of five dump attempts to hit .600 to go with her 39 assists and Richardson led the way with 11 digs defensively.
The win was ever critical in the Buffs race to earn an NCAA Tournament berth, which if accomplished would be the program's first since 2006. At 8-9, the Buffs are now in sole possession of seventh place in the league standings after Oregon (9-8) defeated Utah (7-10) Friday night. Arizona sits at 9-7 in the standings and plays at No. 5 USC Friday. If the Trojans wins, Oregon and Arizona would be tied for fifth place, just one match ahead of the Buffs.
"The caveat with all the tournament talk is not to get ahead of yourselves," Kritza said. "The only thing we could do tonight was beat Oregon State. The next thing we can do is beat Oregon at home. We have to keep ourselves focused on that match, we have a lot of work left to make certain we are one of the teams from the Pac-12 that's included in the 64-team field."
The Buffs will look to pull even with the Ducks on Sunday as the two square-off at the Coors Events Center, with first serve set for 11 a.m. on the Pac-12 Networks.
"Oregon is a very accomplished team," Krizta said. "They have a lot of weapons and one of the most accomplished players and athletes in Liz Brenner, who has been putting up some fantastic performances against some good opponents this year."

Hitless Wonders
Weren't we all afraid this was going to happen? Coming off what is traditionally the hottest part of the season for the Twins, Interleague Play, the Minnesota players and fans came into Kansas City on a high. Sure, we were only a game over .500, but we had been playing better baseball (especially on the road) and still (if only by default) in the AL Central division race. Then we lay on egg against the Royals with our best pitcher on the mound.
Besides a two-run blast from Justin Morneau, the Twins couldn't muster any offense against KC's Luke Hochevar. I believe we had one hit through five or six innings against him. Once again, the lineup that can (at times) put some crooked numbers on the board wilted on the road against a team we should handle fairly easily. Not once in the game did two consecutive batters get a hit.
On the flip side, Nick Blackburn pitched a decent game, but seemed to be just a little "off" from his normal self. He wasn't getting first-pitch strikes, and the hitters seemed to be really teeing-off when they got their pitch (thus the two home runs from Callaspo and Olivo). However, this was probably just the case of a pitcher (as sometimes happens) not having his best stuff, and battling through it. He kept us in the game, at the very least, although with the kind of stink our offense was wallowing in it really wouldn't have mattered anyway.
Now the pressure is on to win the final two games of this series…as that is what a contending team should do.
Preview (39-39, 2nd, 4.0 GB DET): Scott Baker (5-6, 5.17) vs. Brian Bannister (5-5, 4.17)

Tonight Hit Songwriter Whitey Shafer born, Sanger D. Shafer is in a local Nashville Hospital and needs our prayers.
In the 1970's lefty got a publishing deal with Acuff-Rose Music. He had several Number 1's hits such as "The Baptism of Jesse Taylor" for Johnny Russell, "Tell Me Lying Eyes Are Wrong" for George Jones, and a series of hits for Moe Bandy.
Whitey was very good friends with Lefty Frizzell. When Left passed away Shafer wrote a song to honor Lefty called, "Lefty's Gone."
Whitey is a Hall of Famer who has penned such hits as "Does Fort Worth Ever Cross Your Mind" and "All My Ex's Live in Texas". He was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1989.
It is being reported by one of Whitey's longtime friends that he was having trouble breathing and was rushed to the hospital today. He has been admitted. No further information on his condition is available at this time. Please say a prayer for Whitey and his family during this stressful time for a complete healing for this man who has given us so much in the way of outstanding music.
Update: 10:41 p.m.
Per Whitey's wife Tracy Bass Shafer: "Whitey is dealing with acute respiratory distress along with pneumonia he's on oxygen and other treatments. Please continue to pray."

Placement hours negotiated between student, university supervisor and placement site.
This unit fosters professional skills and awareness of professional issues in applied settings. Prior to their first placement, students are required to participate in placement preparation activities designed to enhance placement planning and student development. Following this, each student will be assigned a placement in an organisation, which will expose students to the workings of an organisation and the types of issues that arise in an organisational psychological context. The placement will be based on short and well-defined activities that students can complete for the organisation within a specified time period. The broad features of the activities will be negotiated with the organisation prior or upon commencing the placement, with final details being agreed to by the student, placement coordinator and the organisation within the first two weeks of the placement. The project/activity will be directly relevant to organisational psychology and will relate to a concern that the organisation wishes to address.
In line with professional standards for the training of provisional psychologists, students must demonstrate a satisfactory level of competence in both pre-placement preparation and placement completion. An ungraded pass will be awarded to the student for successful completion of the two assessment tasks.
Assessment task 1 - Pre Placement Preparation:
- Participation in the Post-Graduate Assessment and Development Centre (PG-DAC) or alternative task and working collaboratively with Placement Coordinator/s to develop an individual Placement Development Plan (PDP).
- Attendance of a group placement induction session.
Assessment task 2 – Placement Completion:
- Successful completion of placement and required placement documentation.
- Participation in formal peer learning experiences.
Students must satisfactorily complete all components of both assessment tasks in order to obtain a pass for the unit. If there is uncertainty regarding the satisfactory completion of any of the components or if the student's competence is questioned, the Unit Chair(s) will review and determine the outcome. Failure to complete the requirements of any one component satisfactorily will result in the student failing the unit assessment. Failure of a placement unit may lead to enrolment in the course being revoked

Mohammad Al-Mutair resigns from Parliament كبير يا محمد المطير
July 26, 2012 Leave a Comment
I've never ever voted for Mohamamd Al-Mutair, or even agreed with his political opinions. But I've got to say, he is as honest and honourable as you can get from any MP.
While others are rallying and protesting the return of the 2009 majlis, Al-Mutair made the honest and right thing and just resigned from that terrible majlis.
You've got to have respect for a man like that, no matter how politically different you are from him. He's got the kind of character you want in an MP, someone with a sense of decency, respect and honour.

First Team
Six years have passed since the last match up between Milan and Anderlecht. It was the Champions League of 2006/2007 when Milan last met the Belgian side in the group stages of Europe's top competition.
(IN THE PHOTO: A moment from the 2006/2007 match)
MILAN – The Champions League nights are back in Milan and on Tuesday 18 September at 20.45 at the San Siro stadium, the team will start this season's journey in the competition. They'll be up against Anderlecht a Belgian side that the Rossoneri have already faced twice before in Europe.
In the 1993/1994 season, Milan came up against Anderlecht in the knock out stages after having beaten Aaurau in the last 36 and FC Copenhagen in the last 16. Both matches ended 0-0 but despite the two draws, it was the Rossoneri who got through to the semis as the format was different to the current one. Milan went on to lift the trophy that season.
The last time the two sides met was in the 2006/2007 season. After a 1-0 win in Bruxelles with a goal from kaka, the Brazilian was on hand with a hat trick in the San Siro and another goal from Antonio Gilardino made the 4-1 score line. It was another Champions league triumph for the Rossoneri. 4 precedents, 2 draws and 2 wins with 4 goals scored and only one conceded. More importantly, the last 2 times Milan have faced this side, they've also won the competition. History bodes well.

Yesterday, while I was walking around Greenbelt 3, an attractive lady wearing a tight blue dress casually approached me and said 'Hi!'
I thought she wanted to have a chat and get to know me but as it turned out, she simply wanted to hand me this flyer.
The whole thing might not have panned out the way I thought it would but, at least, I'm now aware of Globe's exciting-albeit-short-lived promo. Now, isn't that sweet?
Apparently, Globe Telecom will be offering Samsung Galaxy Note2 phablet and Samsung Galaxy S3 for free with Globe Plan 999 - replete with Unlimited Mobile Internet per month plus 1 Globe Freebie - starting August 21 until August 26, 2013 - that's Monday next week - only! They'll also give consumers a chance to get the current flagship smartphone Samsung Galaxy S4 for free with just Plan 1799 instead of Plan 2499.
Huawei Ascend G510 will be free with Plan 349 while Samsung Galaxy S Duos is bundled for free with Plan 499.
So why the sudden decision to offer such high-end phablet at a bargain? I guess it's because Samsung Galaxy Note3 is set to be announced in a couple of weeks and Globe doesn't want to be bothered with too many Samsung Galaxy Note2 devices in their inventory.
Samsung Galaxy Note2 may be just days away from being formally superseded but I think it's still great handset to own. And to get it for free with Plan 999 while enjoying unlimited internet is already a steal if you ask me. For more information about this promo or to subscribe to a postpaid plan, feel free to visit a Globe Store near you.

You probably know their names. You may even personally know some of the 28 people featured in the Rainbow History Project's new exhibit of portraits, "Community Pioneers," celebrating those who've contributed to GLBT equality in the District in the past 40 years.
"I wanted the portraits to reflect who the people are," says Patsy Lynch, a local lesbian, who served as portrait photographer, and who is herself a featured pioneer. "I basically let people tell me how they wanted to be photographed."
Lilli Vincenz
Lynch's method worked particularly well with Lilli Vincenz, one of the first to picket the White House for gay equality, some 40 years ago.
"Literally, about 20 minutes before I left, she goes, 'Would you like me to play my violin for you?'… She had just finished that last note, and she threw her arms up. I knew that was the photo."
Mark Meinke, chair of Rainbow History, says the featured pioneers were limited to local people who are still living, though future exhibits may feature those who have died or left the area.
"Without community pioneers, there wouldn't be a community," he says. "You look around, there are bars, there are clubs. There are churches, there are synagogues. Thirty years ago, none of that existed. Somebody had to create it, and these are the people who did."
Lynch says she is hoping those who attend walk away with a newly found sense of history.
"I really hope that when people come to the show,… they really take the time to look at the images and read about it," she says. "If we don't know our history we're going to become forgotten. We need to let people know that we are here, and we're not going away."
An opening reception is scheduled on Thursday, Sept. 27, from 6-9 p.m. at Busboys and Poets, 2021 14th St. NW. The exhibit will be on display through Oct. 19. For more information, visit www.rainbowhistory.org.

Common Myths
Common Myths About Feral Cats
Feral cats are a new and "unnatural species" created by irresponsible humans abandoning their pets.
TRUTH: Feral cats have lived peacefully alongside humans for more than 10,000 years. Throughout most of the world, cats have lived outdoors serving as both companions and pest controllers. It was not until the mid-20th century that they were invited into the home.
Similar to farm animals, they are domesticated but not socialized to humans. Being domesticated they are protected by the state's anti-cruelty laws and should not be harmed in any way.
Feral Cats Spread Disease & Rabies
TRUTH: Research shows that feral cats are just as healthy as pet cats with equally low incidence of disease and similar life spans. In fact, in 2007 less than 1% of feral cats presented to TNVR clinics in 6 states had to be euthanized for debilitating conditions, trauma or infectious diseases.
Rabies is often misguidedly used to justify catch and kill plans to remove cats from certain areas, when in fact, feral cats are not a reservoir for rabies, and the virus itself is not nearly the threat it once was. The last confirmed cat-to-human transmission of rabies occurred in 1975 and the risk of catching rabies from a feral cat is almost non-existent.
Read "The Science Behind Why Feral Cats Are Safe Members of Our Communities".
Feral Cats Attack Children
TRUTH: Feral cats are not socialized to humans and will avoid them. They are evasive and wary, refusing to approach humans even when food is offered.
Feral Cats Endanger Wildlife Populations
TRUTH: Studies show that the declining numbers of birds and wildlife are caused by habitat loss, urbanization, pollution and environmental degradation. These scenarios are caused by humans, not feral cats.

BOSTON (AP) - The Boston Bruins have claimed Kaspars Daugavins off waivers from the Ottawa Senators.
In a shootout against the Bruins on March 11, Daugavins advanced the puck by pressing on it with the top of his stick. He then spun in front of goalie Tuukka Rask, who made the save. Boston won 3-2.
The Bruins also recalled defenseman Torey Krug from Providence of the AHL before Wednesday night's game against the Montreal Canadiens.

First Round Results in PDF Format
CARBONDALE, Ill. - The Northern Illinois University women's golf team struggled in the first round of the Saluki Invitational Sunday afternoon at Hickory Ridge Golf Course.
"There were about four holes that ate us up," NIU head coach Pam Tyska said. "We did walk the course after the rain and snow subsided yesterday. To actually play it, is going to give us a big boost going into tomorrow.
"We definitely have some better strategies on how to play the golf course now that we do have a round under our belt."
The Huskies shot an opening round 343 and are 11th, one shot out of the Top 10. Southern Illinois leads the field with a 319.
Sophomore Allie Parthie (Marinetta, Wis./Marinetta) carded the best score for Northern Illinois with an 81. She is one of seven golfer tied for 10th place, nine strokes out of the lead. Junior Katie Kuhn (Clarendon Hills, Ill./Hinsdale Central) follows with an 84 and is in 31st.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, warned in 2011 that people who take tumor necrosis factor-alpha blockers, also known as anti-TNFs or TNF-blockers, may be at risk of infection from the bacteria Legionella and Listeria.
After reviewing cases of infection in patients treated with the drugs, the FDA is strengthening the drugs' boxed warning labels to include the two bacteria.
Anti-TNFs, a type of biologic product, are used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, or RA, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, juvenile arthritis and several other conditions. The new warnings will be added to labels for infliximab (Remicade), etanercept (Enbrel), adalimumab (Humira), certolizumab pegol (Cimzia), and golimumab (Simponi).
Serious infections – from bacteria, fungi, viruses, mycobacteria (including tuberculosis) and other opportunistic pathogens – are a known risk of anti-TNFs, which can compromise the immune system's ability to fight infections. Patients older than 65 and those taking other immunosuppressive drugs may be at greater risk of infection.
The added warning may help patients with these infections get treatment more quickly, according to the FDA. In the past, healthcare professionals weren't always aware of the risk of certain infections, leading to delayed treatment.
"Any product we use to treat rheumatoid arthritis, because it affects the immune system, always has the potential for infection," says David Pisetsky, MD, PhD, chief of the division of rheumatology, allergy and clinical immunology at Duke University Medical Center. "The difference is there are now two other organisms that we have to be concerned about. So, if a patient gets sick, you add into your thinking, 'Could it be Legionella or Listeria?'"
Jeffrey Curtis, MD, director of the Arthritis Clinical Intervention Program at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, agrees. "All the FDA has done is called out two specific infections among all the other ones that physicians have been thinking about," he says.
"The take-home message for patients is that they should not have new concerns or worries about the safety of these medications," says Dr. Curtis, who is also an associate professor of medicine at UAB and a former Arthritis Foundation-funded researcher.

The senior senator from the ancestral home of Big Coal talks a good game when it comes to global warming. "I'm concerned that powerful voices continue to argue that climate change is a myth," Rockefeller declared last year. "Greenhouse gas emissions are not healthy for our Earth or for her people, and we must take serious action to reduce them." But Rockefeller's deeds don't match his lofty rhetoric. Last year, he led the charge in the Senate to prevent the EPA from regulating carbon emissions, insisting that Congress should be the one to "determine how best to reduce greenhouse gases in a way that protects West Virginia's economy." Given that there is no chance lawmakers will take action on carbon pollution anytime soon, Rockefeller's move was just another excuse to burn more coal. What's worse, it also provided Republicans with bipartisan cover in their crusade to strip the Obama administration of its last remaining way to cut planet-warming pollution on its own. "Who does Senator Rockefeller think will protect Americans from the dangers of global warming if the government is left with no tools to do so?" asks Peter Lehner, executive director of the Natural Resources Defense Council.
Sen. Jay Rockefeller

Students should assume that once they take an in-residence course in a sequence (chemistry, mathematics, language, and others), they cannot receive credit for taking a prior course in the sequence. For example, a student who took SPANISH 231 after taking and passing SPANISH 232 on the Ann Arbor campus would not receive credit for the SPANISH 231 course.
Students who transfer in credit for a course in a sequence should assume they will lose credit for that course if they take a prior course in the sequence in residence at Ann Arbor. For example, a student taking MATH 115 in Ann Arbor after transferring credit for MATH 116 from another institution would lose the credit for the MATH 116 course.
Students should contact a LSA academic advisor if they have questions about whether or not a course is part of a sequence.

This has been the hardest review I have written up to date, because, well, this place is indescribable...
Why? Because Egg Plantation is like walking into a breakfast wonderland, where you can order anything your heart may desire for breakfast, and their portions are fit for an NFL linebacker!
But it doesn't stop at breakfast. Their menu includes super-sized salads, wraps, burgers, and specialty sandwiches. Did I mention their breakfast menu includes 101 omelettes?
Yes, 101. That means, if you went there every day and had a different omelette seven days a week, then that only leaves you with two-thirds of a year to try something else.
But the omelettes don't stop there. Owner Simon Mee says they can make ANY creation of omelette that a customer may have, with their most popular one being #74 which is a four-egg omelette with avocado, bacon, tomatoes, green onion and jack cheese.
All their omelettes are made with four eggs and include your choice of country potatoes, hash browns, O'brien potatoes, fresh fruit, cottage cheese, three slices of tomato or pineapple and your choice of toast includes a grilled roll, whole wheat, sourdough, white, English muffin, rye, cinnaon raisin, or a homemade biscuit.
Mee and his wife Shannon have owned Egg Plantation since 2000 and it is a rollback to the old days, where family owned business' were able to thrive.
Mee, who is originally from Nottingham, England (yes, the Robin Hood Nottingham) said in the current economy, he's been able to successful by keeping it simple -- By maintaining great customer service and great food. Egg Plantation does keep it simple, as they are only open from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. seven days a week.
Located 15 minutes north of the San Fernando Valley in Newhall, Egg Plantation has been voted Best Breakfast by publications Elite Magazine and The Signal. Shannon (from Northridge) has been featured on The Food Network and their website includes this bit, as well as their menu which you can get to by clicking here.
Their yelp reviews are the highest I've seen, with an average of four and a half stars which you can see here.
Here is a breakdown of what I tried:
- #74 - Their number one seller, which did not disappoint, with my favorite fruit (avocado) being evenly distributed in the omelette, and meshing with the cheese and bacon. (Turkey bacon is optional.)
- Pesto Scram - Four eggs scrambled with pesto, chicken, spinach and tomatoes, topped with feta cheese. Everything is made with fresh ingredients, including farmer's market fruits and vegetables, which makes everything that much better...
- Steph's - Off of the employee favorites, Steph's is Crab Benedict: Toasted English Muffin, topped with sauteed crab, spinach and garlic, topped with two poached eggs and hollandaise sauce. One word - WOW! Real crab mixed with egg becomes an exotic breakfast that you can't help but keep on trying.
- Strawbery Stuffed French Toast - A MUST TRY! A thick egg bread filled with cream cheese, strawberry preserves topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. Dessert? Who needs dessert when you have this. Absolutely melts in your mouth, and you will not want to share this with anyone!
- Kim's - Half pound of tender Kobe beef topped with bleu cheese, bacon, baby greens, and grilled red onion on a sesame toasted bun, served with sweet potato fries. Did I mention they serve MORE than breakfast? The Kobe beef says it all...
- Pumpkin Latte - Their seasonal latte served with a fresh biscotti, makes you feel all warm inside. And the biscotti is not the hard one you will find at your local coffee shop, but soft because their made fresh.
They also have a full bar, with their most popular drinks being their signature Bloody Mary and Pomegranate Mimosa...
What does this place not have? Valet. But plenty of parking is available, and if you come primetime, expect a small wait. They also have a patio which features a guitar player on the weekends.
When asked about the wildest story, Mee said two people met at their bar area, sparked a conversation, and recently spent their ten year anniversary after falling in love. Mee doesn't promise love, but DOES promise great food, great service, and a smile everytime you see him there.
Why was this the hardest review, with nothing but good stuff to say? Well, too much good stuff. I could say they offer a business card, with punchouts for 12 omelettes and getting the 13th one free, a free meal on your birthday, or that they crack over 7,000 eggs a week... But I'll stop here, and the rest you'll have to find out on your own.
For more questions you can contact them at 661.255.8222 and their address is 24415 Walnut Street in Newhall.

Reviewer rating:
Eddie Izzard
Palais Theatre, November 22, 26 and December 4
LAUDED once by John Cleese as "the lost Python", Eddie Izzard now shows his evolution into a reptile that is entirely unique. There's no other lizard quite like Izzard.
Certainly, the vestigial Python nonsense on which Izzard slithered to fame is evident; we can picture the Flying Circus as he offers us limericks in the voice of an angry dinosaur or renames Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species as Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, You. But, there is a warmth and a (chaotic) sense of civic-mindedness at the foundation of his work absent in the cold, if brilliant, Python oeuvre.
A great deal of Izzard's charm inheres in his willingness to be terribly silly. In a show that purports to trace the spiritual evolution of humankind, the author takes fantastic liberty with fact. To see him tear about like a mad kitten in the shreds of ill-remembered Old Testament stories and bad science is enormous fun.
Izzard's is a bravura sprezzatura; there is colossal technique at the core of his anarchic blasts. There is also great heart. Unlike many comics slavishly committed to the cause of atheism, Izzard appears to care less about making cruel fun of religion and more about taking his secular clergy into challenging intellectual territory.
That he elevates debate by impersonating a giant squid is to his enduring credit. Rarely do we see cleverness unfold from the primitive mouth of a cephalopod. Entirely evolved and fatally funny, Izzard is of a singular genus.

English is not my native language and I'm struggling to get the meanings of:

I'd highly appreciate if someone explain the meanings of these two sentences to me. Thanks

Quad-core Acer Iconia Tab A700 Android tablet shows up in photos, should debut at CES 2012
That rumored Acer Iconia Tab A700 tablet has been finally spotted in some photos, allowing us to see that it doesn't look too different from the already announced Iconia Tab A200.
Unlike the A200, though, the A700 has a camera on the back (5MP with flash), a quad-core processor (Nvidia Tegra 3), and a 10.1 inch display with a higher resolution: 1920 x 1200 pixels (WUXGA).
Other features: 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, 3.5mm headset jack, Dolby Mobile sound, MicroUSB, Micro HDMI, front-facing camera, and a 9,800 mAh battery.
Acer should officially announce the Iconia Tab A700 at CES 2012 (10 – 13 January). Since the A200 comes with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, the A700 will most likely run ICS, too.

It is getting to be that season again – a time to pack away for the long winter months; not just for human beings but for all animal kind. This is the time of year that the safety of your cherished pets could potentially become an issue.
Just like has been written in the past, needs to be reminded in the present. The Midwest must look out for coyotes looking for an easy meal in the backyards of everyone from the poorest of the poor to the affluent rich of towns and cities all around.
It is not unheard of to have a coyote stroll down Michigan Avenue or a pack meeting in a near suburb because easy prey is available in a fenced-in yard with nowhere to go. Pet parents must be aware of this and follow the safety precautions issued by local authorities such as the DuPage Animal Care & Control listed below:
· Store garbage securely
· Keep bird feeding areas clean of debris. Even well maintained feeders can attract rodents which in turn may attract coyotes.
· Use squirrel-proof bird feeders. Squirrels visiting bird feeders attract coyotes.
· Feed pets indoors.
· Do not leave small pets like rabbits, cats, or small dogs unattended, especially at night.
· If you see a coyote, face it, make loud noises (clap your hands, bang pots and pans, yell at the coyote) and toss stones or sticks at it. Do not run away from coyotes.
The same type of care and control must be followed when dealing with gator problems in the southeastern states. Their precautions (reposted from Carrie Boyko's blog) include
· During April and May gators become active just before dusk, seeking both food and mating partners.
· Breeding and nesting continues through early September, making Summer especially hazardous for our dogs, since gators often mate and nest in shallow water where your dog may love to romp.
· Gators spend their days hunkering down in the mud or lying in wait in the marshy, weedy areas where they are less visible. This makes the water's edge a less safe place for Fido to play. Be vigilant in your watch and never allow water play after dusk.
· The erratic movement of a swimming or playing dog attracts the attention of this fierce predator from a fair distance, and he may wander over--under water--to check out what the fuss is all about. When Fido starts to bark, it's all over. Gators may frequently take a dog by surprise, rising up out of the depths near a dog and hauling it away to its 'locker' deep under the water.
· A small to medium dog is at greatest risk, of course, but larger dogs have been known to be taken by mature male gators, that can reach lengths of 12 feet and weigh nearly half a ton.
· If your large swimmer simply must have a dip, the safest place to swim is in the middle of a large lake during midday, where these predators don't venture as often.
· Your best bet? Leave your fresh water swimming expeditions for cooler weather when gators are not as active. October through March is much safer.
· Another extra precaution to take is a super-thick life vest. Although this will not protect Fido from the strong bite of a large gator, it may give him some relief if attacked by a smaller one.
· If you walk your dog along a fresh water area known to be inhabited by gators, always use a leash.
· Gators can travel very fast on land; do not approach a sunbathing gator thinking it will be slow-moving; you'll regret it.
· If you spot an adult gator (more than 3 feet in length), no matter how small, give it a wide berth of more than 15-20 feet, particularly during mating and nesting season. Do not allow your dog to bark at the gator, as this will be perceived as aggression and may provoke an attack. Leave the area if your dog ceases to bark on command.
· If you notice a gator sunning itself on land, make some noise to alert it to your presence. Generally, this will cause the gator to retreat back into the water, giving you a safer passing.
· If you are attacked by a gator, fight back. Go for the back of the throat, the eyes, nostrils and ears. Each of these areas is highly sensitive. The back of a gator's tongue has a flap that controls influx of water, allowing them to open their mouth while submerged. If you find yourself in the jaws of a gator in water, summon your best efforts to damage this flap. If this flap becomes dislodged or damaged, a gator will generally release you to protect himself from drowning.
· Never, ever, feed a gator. No matter how cute or how big, he is not your good buddy. #nuffsaid
· Finally, get prompt medical attention for any gator-inflicted injury, no matter how minor. Their mouths are heavily infested with bacteria, meaning you are at risk for infection.
Now you have been reminded about two potential dangers facing your dogs. Adhere to the warnings and suggestions to keep Fido safe from harm. Your dog is your best friend – treat him or her that way and you will have that friend for many years to come!

LOS ANGELES - The 12th-ranked Bruins honored their five seniors prior to Sunday's game against #11 Arizona, but it was an outstanding effort from the underclassmen that boosted UCLA to a victory, as sophomore Destiny Rodino and freshman Jessica Hall combined on a six-hitter in the circle and sophomore Devon Lindvall and freshman Alyssa Tiumalu each homered in a 5-1 win at Easton Stadium.
The Bruins improve to 32-15 overall and 8-10 in Pac-10 play, while the Wildcats fall to 39-14 and 10-8 in league action.
Rodino (2-0) was superb in just her second start and third appearance of the season, striking out one and giving up a run, six hits and one walk. She retired the side in order twice in the second and fourth innings. Hall tossed two hitless innings of relief to earn her second save of the year, striking out three and retiring six of the seven batters she faced, allowing only a two-out walk in the seventh.
Lindvall and juniors Samantha Camuso and Andrea Harrison each had two hits, as the Bruins had nine as a team.
Arizona scored in its opening at-bat. With one out, Lauren Schutzler singled up the middle and moved to second on a single by Brigette Del Ponte when freshman Kellie Fox lost sight of a pop up in shallow left field. One out later, Kristen Arriola doubled to the left-field wall to bring home Schutzler, but a great relay from Harrison to Fox to Tiumalu gunned down Del Ponte at the plate.
The Bruins tied the score in the bottom of the first. With two down, Fox doubled to right-center and came home on a single to right by Harrison to make it 1-1.
UCLA took the lead in the fourth. Harrison led off with a single up the middle and came home one out later when Tiumalu smashed her ninth homer of the season to left on a 2-1 pitch to put the Bruins on top 3-1.
In the fifth, Arizona nearly tied the game, but Lindvall made a dazzling play in center worthy of a highlight on SportsCenter. With Ashlee Brawley on first and two outs, Brittany Lastrapes launched a deep shot to center, but Lindvall jumped and made the catch while crashing into the wall to keep the Bruins in the lead.
The very next pitch in the bottom of the fifth would be another shining moment for Lindvall, as she crushed a leadoff offering over the wall in right for her second homer of the season to make it 4-1.
Arizona had another chance in the sixth after getting a leadoff walk to Schutzler and a single to left by Del Ponte. But Hall came in and struck out Stacie Chambers, induced Arriola into a pop up to short and fanned Karissa Buchanan looking to get the Bruins out of it.
In the bottom of the sixth, the Bruins added an insurance run, again thanks to Lindvall. With one out, Tiumalu walked and was pinch-run for by senior Grace Murray, who moved to second on a single to right by Camuso. One out later, Lindvall singled to left to plate Murray with UCLA's fifth run.
The Bruins close out the regular season next weekend at Oregon with a three-game series starting on Thursday at 6 p.m. Gametracker and free live audio will be available at UCLABruins.com.

Ethnographies of Doubt:
Faith and Uncertainty in Contemporary Societies.
Ed. Mathijs Pelkmans
Conversion after Socialism: Disruptions, Modernisms, and the Technologies of Faith.
Ed. Mathijs Pelkmans
Defending the Border: Identity, religion, and modernity in the Republic of Georgia.
Mathijs Pelkmans is a specialist in the anthropology of the Caucasus and Central Asia. He has conducted field research in Georgia and in Kyrgyzstan. His first major fieldwork was carried out from 1999-2001. During that time he worked on the anthropology of borders, tracing the social biography of the iron curtain between (Soviet) Georgia and Turkey. By documenting changing patterns of everyday life along the border, he demonstrated why the demise of the iron curtain was unexpectedly accompanied by a hardening of social and cultural boundaries. His ongoing fieldwork in Kyrgyzstan, conducted first in 2003-2004 and followed by several shorter research trips, deals with the religious dimension of post-socialist change. Focusing on Protestant as well as Muslim missionary activity, this project studies the dynamics of conversion and re-conversion, and analyses concomitant reconfigurations of the 'secular' and the 'religious' in a 'post-atheist' Muslim-majority context. Dr Pelkmans received his PhD at the University of Amsterdam in 2003. Before joining the LSE in 2007, he held a postdoctoral position at the Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, and taught at the University of Amsterdam and University College Utrecht. He was editor of ISIM Review and is now co-editor of Focaal: Journal of Global and Historical Anthropology. He is consumed by doubt, a preoccupation which so far has resulted in an edited volume titled Ethnographies of Doubt, and is central to a book manuscript on Fragile Convictions, based on his research in Kyrgyzstan, which he is currently trying to finish.

King Crimson: The Sheltering Sky
The Sheltering Sky
King Crimson
Discipline (E.G. Music 3629-2)
Robert Fripp (guitar and devices), Bill Bruford (drums),
Adrian Belew (guitar), Tony Levin (stick, bass).
Composed by King Crimson.
Recorded: date unknown; released in 1981
Rating: 92/100 (learn more)
By far "The Sheltering Sky," its name taken from a 1949 novel by Paul Bowles, is the most rewarding cut on Discipline for any jazz-fusion fan. The performance sounds like Weather Report without saxophonist Wayne Shorter and with two guitarists instead of none. In all past King Crimson lineups, Robert Fripp was the only guitarist. In this new version of the band, Fripp invited Adrian Belew along. Fripp plays all sorts of "devices," so he could probably come up with some sounds that approximated two guitars. But he couldn't really play counterpoint to himself. I mean he could … but you know what I mean. The two-guitarists model makes a real difference. The ever-clever Bruford steadily pounds an insistent rhythm into your head as Fripp on device, an early guitar synthesizer really, soars above it all in a Joe Zawinul-inspired flight. Every one of this tune's eight or so minutes is soaked to the saturation point with fusion trademarks. I may get an argument from many jazz-rockers that I let some of King Crimson's other works into the fusion fortress a little too willingly. But anyone disagreeing that this tune belongs in there should be sent into the corner.

Get Money
[Notorious B.I.G.]
You wanna sit more on my livin' room floor
Play Nintendo with Cease and Eno
Pick up my phone, say "Poppa not home."
Sex all night, mad head in the morn'
Spin my beads, smoke all my weed
Tattoo on titty say you're B.I.G., now check it
You wanna be my main squeeze baby, dontcha?
You wanna gimme what I need baby
Wontcha, picture life as my wife, just think
Full length mink, fat X and O links
Bracelets to match, conversation was all that
Showed you the safe combinations and all that
Guess you could say youse the one I trusted
Who would ever think that you was spread like mustard
Shit got hot, you sent feds to my spot
Took me to court, tried to take all I got
Another intricate plot, the bitch said I raped her
Damn! Why she wanna stick me for my paper?
My Moschino ho, my Versace hottie
Come to find out, you was fuckin' every-body
You knew about me, the fake ID
Cases in Virginia, body in D.C.
Woe always me, that's what I get for trickin'
Came out on bail, commenced to ass-kickin'
Lick in the door, wavin' the .44
All you heard was "Poppa, don't hit no more!"
Disrespect my click, my shit's imperial
Fuck around and made her milk box material
You feel me, suckin' dick, runnin' your lips
Cuz of you, I pull some real fuck a bitch shit
Come bitches, get money
Punk niggaz, get money
[Little Kim]
Niggaz, better grab a seat
grab on your dick as this bitch dig deep
Deeper than a pussy of a bitch six feet
Stiff dicks feel sweet in this little petite
Young bitch from the street, guaranteed to stay down
Used to bring work out of town on Greyhound
Now I'm Billboard bound, niggaz pressed to hit it
Play me like a ticket, thinkin' I'm pressed to get it
Rather do the killin' and the stick-up (?)
Rather count a million while you eat my pussy
Push me to the limit, get my feelin's in it
Get me open while I'm cummin' down your throat and
You wanna be my main squeeze, nigga, dontcha?
You wanna lick between my knees, nigga
Dontcha wanna see me whippin' your three down the Ave.
Blow up spots or bitches because I'm mad
Break up affairs like shots in the air
You get vexed and start swingin' everywhere
Me shifty? Now you wanna pistol whip me
Pull out your nine while I cock on mine
Now what nigga? I ain't got time for this.
So what nigga? I'm not tryin' to hear that shit
Now you wanna buy me diamonds and Armani suits
Ada Venadini and Chanel 9 boots
Things that make up for all the games and the lies
Hallmark cards saying I apologize
Is you wit' me? How could you ever deceive me?
Payback's a bitch, mothafucka, believe me
Naah, I ain't gay, this ain't no lesbo flow
Just a little somethin' to let you mothafuckas know
Come bitches, get money
Punk niggaz, get money

When the NCAA tournament tipped off last week, you would have been hard pressed to find many pundits who had Dayton and Stanford facing off in the Sweet 16. However, the two double digit seeds used multiple upsets to play their way into the second weekend.
Dayton (25-10) vs. Stanford (23-12) 7:15 p.m CBS
Dayton outlasted Ohio State and Syracuse in games that came down to the last shot. The Flyers defense has held their NCAA tournament opponents to 56 points per game, but Stanford might have better options on the offensive end of the court.
NCAA tournament preview: Rankings the Sweet 16 games.
The Cardinal have quite a bit of size up front, but it will be the shooting from the perimeter that could make the difference. Chasson Randle shoots over 39 percent from three point range, and he'll need to have the range from distance on Thursday. As a team, Stanford shoots 37 percent from beyond the arc.
NCAA tournament preview: Ranking the Sweet 16 teams.
Dayton shoots slightly better from distance at 37.5 percent. Their ball movement will be a factor in the type of shots the Flyers get on the perimeter. Dyshawn Pierre needs to make plays for Dayton to be successful. Pierre doesn't take a lot of three's, but he hits 40 percent of his shots from deep.
Dick Vitale resumes his Allstate March Mayhem challenge.
Stanford doesn't go too deep into their bench, so it will be important to get an early lead against Dayton. They've been the aggressor in the first two games, and it helped them secure sizable leads to avoid crunch time collapses.
Besides shooting, rebounding will be the biggest factor. If Dayton can hold their own on the boards, Stanford's size advantage will be mitigated. Dwight Powell must be a force for the Cardinal. Any type of foul trouble will limit his effectiveness on both ends. Powell is capable of snatching a double-double with more minutes.
Devin Oliver will likely match up with Powell on the court. Although he is shorter, Oliver has plenty of ability to get Powell off of his game.
If prior games have been any indication of what's going to happen, foul shooting down the stretch will be extremely important. Dayton shoots 68 percent from the foul line, while Stanford hits 70 percent from the charity stripe.
However, the right people have to take foul shots in the final minutes of the game. They also have to capitalize on the opportunities.
It's hard to see the game getting into a frenzied pace, but both teams will need flow. Hopefully one of the teams don't come into the game with the "just happy to be here" mentality. In these scenarios, that's usually not the case.
This will come down to the medium game from Dayton and the inside game from Stanford. If Stanford can swallow up the paint and control Dayton off the dribble, they'll be in good position to win. We know that Dayton is great at defending the last second shot, so it will come down to a battle of wills.
Stanford 65- Dayton 62

J.J. Watt is called by many as the best 3-4 defensive end in the 2011 NFL Draft. Find out what makes Watt so promising in our scouting report.
J.J. Watt
6'6, 285 pounds | Defensive end | Wisconsin
Pass rush: Watt is not a classically athletic player who will dominate the edge with blinding speed and flashy moves. He is a high-motor player with a relentless appetite for pressuring the quarterback. Watt was often double-teamed as a junior and saw his production drop because of it. Shows a nice swim move when working inside as a three-technique defensive tackle. As an outside defensive end, in a five or seven-technique, he is not a pass rushing threat. Watt excels at getting his hands up to defend the passing lanes and block the quarterback's vision.
Pursuit: As mentioned above, Watt is a high-motor, high-intensity player who does a great job hustling through plays. He will attack and pursue. Has enough speed to chase from behind. His long arms allow him to catch runners from behind.
Quickness: Shows good initial burst and explosion off the snap. Does show a great first step that allows him to knock the offensive lineman off balance. In comparison to other defensive ends his quickness is not worth noting, but if you look at Watt as a defensive tackle or 3-4 defensive end he is impressive in this regard.
Run defend: It must be said that most consider Watt a five-technique end in the NFL. During his time at Wisconsin he did a great job against the run playing tackle and end. He is able to anchor against the outside run and can set the edge to force the run inside. Is very active and productive against the run. Has the agility to work down the line and get to the edge. Has the size to plug holes and force runners to pause. Will draw a double-team in run situations. Is ideal for the defensive end position in a 3-4 defense.
Strength: Watt has the strength required to handle double-teams and set the edge against the run. Could stand to gain muscle and overall strength. Has the frame to add 15-20lbs. Will get pushed off the line if a blocker gets in to his pads. Could improve strength with better understanding of leverage.
Technique: Overall you have to be impressed when looking at J.J. Watt. He has the ideal size, speed and agility for the position. He does a nice job using his hands to break free of blocks. Has a nice inside swim move. Could benefit from adding 1-2 pass rushing moves. Has the size and strength to play inside on passing downs.
Final word: Watt began his journey to the NFL as a tight end at Central Michigan. After one season in which he caught eight balls for 77 yards, Watt transferred back to his home state of Wisconsin and walked-on to the Badgers football team.
Watt started all 13 games in his sophomore and junior seasons, progressing into one of the elite defensive ends in college football.
A junior entry to the 2011 draft, Watt is as NFL-ready as any defensive lineman in the class.

It may, if intense enough, severely undermine quality of life, even though acne cannot be categorized as a health emergency.

- Isotretinoin: The business name of isotretinoin, severe cystic acne that is treated by a retinoid by drastically cutting down the creation of sebum.

- Pustule: An inflamed acne papule which has become full of pus. Pustules may hemorrhage, and break if irritated.

The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) has designated April 26, 2014, National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day. Part of the DEA Office of Diversion Control's National Take-Back Initiative, the day provides consumers an opportunity to turn over unused and expired pharmaceutical products to the DEA for safe disposal.
Consumers interested in turning in drugs on April 26 can find a local point of collection by using the DEA's online tool. Law enforcement agencies interested in hosting a collection should contact their local point of collection, which they can find on the DEA's list. Points of collection in Allentown include
- South Whitehall Township Police Department at 4444 Walbert Avenue,
- Walgreen's Pharmacy at 1702 West Tilghman Street,
- South Mall at 3300 Lehigh Street,
- Giant Food Store at 3015 West Emmaus Avenue,
- Whitehall Township Police Department at 3731 Lehigh Street,
- Catasauqua Police Department at 118 Bridge Street, and
- Emmaus Police Department at 400 Jubilee Street
According to the DEA, the non-medical use of prescription drugs is the second most common form of drug abuse in the US (after marijuana use). The DEA also warns that "unused prescription drugs thrown in the trash can be retrieved and abused or illegally sold" and that unused drugs flushed down the toilet contaminate the water supply. (This information is also available in Spanish.)
For individuals who have unused pharmaceuticals but are unable to take them to a participating location on April 26, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) provides the following guidance:
- Take the drugs out of their original containers,
- Mix them with an "undesirable substance" such as used cat litter or used coffee grounds, and
- Put them in a sealable containers such as a Zip-Loc bag before placing them into your trash bag.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) seconds this advice.

The pictures alone are worth what she charges for the party, Great price for a wonderful service, you can tell she loves what she does, very good with the kids, all the girls gave her a hug before she left. I think every child should have a Party Expression party! Good job!! We will be calling you again next year and will be giving all your cards out!

A Vision Of Misery
Valley Of Dry Bones
Valley of dry bones
Bless the land
Arise come together bone to bone
Fusion of flesh to bone
Sand becomes the blood of man
Do it because I say you will
Repent to thee or turn to dust
Just like the sand
There'll be no rest
Valley of dry bones
Valley of dry bones
Bless the land
Arise come together bone to bone
