Stock Downgrades: Fair-Weather 'Friends' Flee Facebook
Justin Sharon
Wall Street ratings agencies set the tone for today's stock market.
On the day we said a sad goodbye to Tom Clancy (the
esteemed military author
, not the
noted financial analyst
), equities didn't have to look hard to find
The Hunt for Red October
. A crimson tide quickly enveloped the stock market, with
(INDEXSP:.INX) issues imploding for an eighth time in 10. Some stocks did buck a bad tape, notably The
Empire State
(NYSE:ESRT) Building owner after its initial public offering. "
Beauty killed the Beast
" atop its spire, though the edifice's radio antenna remains strong, to judge by a 5.33% surge in
(NYSE:P). With apologies to MTV, then, video certainly didn't kill the radio star.
Video, however
— along with an
analyst downgrade
— clearly killed
Tesla Motors
(NASDAQ:TSLA), which tumbled 6.24%.
Today in economics, analysts expect to see a slippage in September's Institute for Supply Management services index at 10:00 a.m. Eastern. On the corporate earnings front,
Comtech Telecommunications
Constellation Brands
International Speedway
(NASDAQ:ISCA), and
(NASDAQ:XRTX) are all due to release results.
Alcatel Lucent
(NYSE:ALU): Raymond James reduces the French firm to Market Perform from Strong Buy, sending shares lower in today's pre-market activity.
(NYSE:ASH): The chemical company gets taken to Hold from Buy at Jefferies, whose amended price objective is $97.
(NASDAQ:BBRY): Shares, upgraded elsewhere today, are now Underperform from Market Perform at Sanford Bernstein.
(NYSE:CHL): Bank of America-Merrill Lynch moves the telecom titan to Underperform from Neutral.
Domino's Pizza
(NYSE:DPZ): Citing limited earnings upside on a stock trading atop all time highs, Oppenheimer lowers its investment assessment on the fast food firm to Perform from Outperform.
Edgen Group
(NYSE:EDG): Morgan Stanley moves the industrial equipment stock to Equal-Weight from Overweight.
(NASDAQ:FB): The social networking name, on a rocket to the moon since its earnings in July, is taken to Hold from Buy at Pivotal Research. Shares look richly valued following this parabolic recent rise, the broker believes.
(NYSE:MON): Goldman Sachs pulls the seed stock from its Conviction Buy list after the company's earnings announcement.
Redwood Trust
(NYSE:RWT): RWT, a diversified real estate investment trust, gets reduced to Market Perform from Outperform with Wells Fargo.
(OTCMKTS:SBMRY): Credit Suisse cuts the brewing behemoth to Neutral from Outperform.
(OTCMKTS:SVYZY): The European pharmaceutical firm is slashed to Underweight from Equal Weight by Barclays.
Standard Chartered
(OTCMKTS:SCBFF): Numis slashes the British financial firm to Hold from Add.
(NYSE:UN): Goldman Sachs gives a Buy-from-Conviction Buy downgrade to the consumer products powerhouse after its earnings announcement.

Surf News
- 23 February 2010 | Surfing
Since the Mavericks Surf Contest went off in epic conditions on February 13th, 2010, the Todos Santos Big Wave Event is the last remaining event of the Big Wave World Tour this season.
Californian surfer Greg Long still holds the lead of the Big Wave World Tour Ranking with two wins this season in Peru and Hawaii. Carlos Burle's 5th place at 25 foot plus Mavericks puts him in striking distance of the first ever Big Wave World Champion Title. Mavericks' winner Chris Bertish added valuable points to his BWWT tally, now 900 points behind the leader he is still capable of taking up the crown!
Set to unfold on the next big swell (waves exceeding 30 foot faces) the Todos Santos Big Wave Event is designed to be the grand finale of the Big Wave World Tour.

The Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast presented by Land Rover, Stop No. 1 of 10 on the 2010 ASP World Tour, will commence its waiting period this weekend, ushering in the greatest assemblage of surfing talent in history with 15 ASP World Titles being represented amongst the 48-man draw.
Kelly Slater (USA), 38, former nine-time ASP World Champion and current ASP World No. 6, will return to the singlet this season, challenging for an unprecedented 10th ASP World Title against the world's best surfers in the world's best waves. Coming away with an ASP Dream Tour win in Brazil last season, Slater made a mid-year challenge for the crown, yet fell short of the Australian onslaught.
"I never found myself in the right mind frame to deal with the pressure of a tenth title and find the excitement and purpose for what I was doing for more than a few heats last year," Slater said. "Brazil worked out but all the close heats went the other guy's way and I just made a lot of mind decisions and not surfing from the gut and real feelings. I am comfortable with 9 (ASP World Titles), but yeah, 10 has a certain allure to it."

The second event of the Jamaica Surfing Association's 2010 National Open Series kicked off at the Peenie Wally surfing beach at Buff Bay in Portland on Saturday 20 of February 2010.
Top Jamaican surfer Inilek Wilmot, Brother of 2009 National Open Champ Icah Wilmot, walked away with the 1000 points on offer for the second time in two events with the win and now leads the race with a perfect 2000 points in the five event series which climaxes in December.
The waves were shoulder to head high with light variable winds and provided the perfect canvas for the event to play out on.
The first round saw the lighter breeze and better waves and five fifteen minute heats of six were run to cut the field in half for the second round where three heats of five were run to select the top 9 for the semi final round.
The semi-final round saw the level of surfing go up a notch. The first heat was a matchup between Luke Williams, Akeem Taylor, Ackeam Phillips, Shama Beckford and Ivah Wilmot. The surfers caught and rode 26 waves between them in the 15 minute heat. The horn sounded and Luke took first Ackeem Taylor second and Ackeam Phillips third and all three advanced to the final.

After over a three-year period Tito Vilanova bravely fought parotid gland cancer but on Friday that fight came to an end as the former Barcelona coach passed away at the age of 45. FC Barcelona came out with an official message on Twitter.

That was then followed up by a report by Catalan daily Mundo Deportivo announcing the death of the Bellcaire d'Emporà after having been admitted to the Hospital Quirón in Barcelona last Friday due to gastric complications and had to undergo surgery. That procedure could do little as his condition had worsened. According to the Catalan daily, the former Barcelona coach passed away around 6pm local time.
After official news of the coach's passing, the outpouring of affection came from fans from all over the world as well as several individuals began to express their grief and condolences. Players like Real Madrid's Xabi Alonso:

— Iker Casillas (@CasillasWorld) April 25, 2014
Tito was one of the main architects in the emergence of one of the greatest football teams to have ever graced a football pitch. As assistant to Pep Guardiola beginning with his time as Barça B coach and then taking over the first team, this duo led FC Barcelona through the most successful runs in club history. Tito would then become the head coach of Barcelona in 2012 when Pep Guardiola stepped down from his post.
Unfortunately, for Tito, he would not be able to coach the entire season and would have to head to New York for further cancer treatment after having been diagnosed back in 2011. As coach, he helped Barcelona win the league title, thus becoming the seventh coach to do so in their first season in club history. He was also the second coach in league history to win a league title with his squad earning 100 points.
At the end of the season, he decided to step down from his position to continue a more intense treatment for his condition and would be eventually replaced by Gerardo Martino.
Football has truly lost one of the great minds of the modern game, Tito Vilanova.

Fact Set research has a great report out recently outlining the most popular investments among the 50 largest hedge funds.
Click to EnlargeData is from the end of Q4, but it's still pretty interesting to break down which stocks are being bought across the board by the big hedgies on Wall Street.
At the top of the list is Priceline (PCLN), a stock that is on the buy list of 31 of the 50 largest hedge funds. Total hedge fund positions in PCLN stock at the end of last quarter tallied almost $4.8 billion — nearly 8% of of Priceline's total market value.
Another popular pick among the top 50 hedge funds is healthcare diagnostic company Thermo Fisher Scientific (TMO). According to FactSet, 29 of the top 50 funds held TMO stock at the end of the quarter worth $4.2 billion in shares — roughly 9% of Thermo Fisher's total market cap.
Of course, PCLN stock and Thermo Fisher have been big on buy lists for a while. If you're looking for positions that hedgies are plowing more cash into, consider that Apple (AAPL) just saw a 21% increase in the amount of cash hedge funds have invested — up to $10.5 billion stake in total. That's a small fraction of Apple's $480 billion market cap, of course, but still noteworthy because of the percentage increase.
Check out the complete list attached here.
Just remember: The data is a bit old now. And even if it was completely current, there's no guarantee that the "smart money" knows what the heck it's doing….

Silk Road, the now-defunct online marketplace for illegal drugs and other goods, is getting the movie treatment. 20th Century Fox has commissioned best-selling author Dennis Lehane (Mystic River, Gone Baby Gone) to adapt the story of Ross William Ulbricht's Internet drug empire for the silver screen.
The FBI took down Silk Road in early October. Since then the saga has caused quite a stir in the film world; there was a stampede for movie rights to Ulbricht's story. According to Deadline, the movie will follow the rise and fall of Silk Road and investigate 29-year-old Ulbricht's past, as well as allegations that he hired a Silk Road user to kill another user who was blackmailing him.
Lehane's script will be based on an article that Joshua Davis is currently writing for Wired. Davis and partner Joshuah Bearman recently launched Epic, a publishing platform that hosts content with an eye towards stories that could work as screenplays. Bearman wrote the Wired article that became the box-office hit Argo.
Ulbricht, who went by the nickname "Dread Pirate Roberts," may not be so pleased by his newfound fame. He is currently in federal custody and faces charges of narcotics trafficking, computer hacking and money laundering.

Hackers blackmailed Domino's Pizza, demanding a significant payout or they said they would release customer data. NBC News shared the details.
The hackers are said to have stolen data on more than 600,000 customers from France and Belgium. The blackmail threat came from a Twitter account listed as "Rex Mundi" and said that they would publish the customer information online unless they received 30,000 euros (about $40,800).
Some time later, the Twitter account was suspended, but a message boasting about the attack was also posted to the site dpaste.de. The pizza chain has 24 locations in Belgium and 229 in France.
According to Reuters, Domino's Pizza Inc. confirmed that the data was stolen, and it included names, phone numbers, delivery addresses, email addresses and even passwords. The information the hackers used to blackmail Domino's was taken from an online ordering system server that the company was working on replacing.
Domino's spokesman Chris Brandon said that the company would not be paying any money. They also say that this was an isolated incident affecting only the locations in France and Belgium. In addition, it seems that no credit card information was involved as the hackers blackmailed Domino's.

211 La Trobe Street
Melbourne VIC 3000
+61 3 9663 1940
I have a pretty low voice for an Asian female, which does not translate to a good singing voice. Thus, I often hear myself telling people that I don't 'do' karaoke. Of course, that's not to say that I don't tag along to karaoke nights organised by friends. Sure, I might sit there for the first half hour with my arms crossed and snicker at everyone else sexing the microphone but all it takes is a few glasses of whiskey and someone to put on Guns and Roses and I'm wailing like the rest of them.
Which was exactly what happened two Sundays ago at Partyworld, Melbourne Central.
But before that, we had dinner.
To warm up our vocal chords, we stopped by Japas which was formerly known as Tomodachi, the sushi train restaurant on the Hoyts level of Melbourne Central. Japas is an acronym for Japanese and tapas. It still has the sushi train running and it still serves a la carte meals but it's 'cheaper than Tomodachi' according to my friend Aaron who organised the karaoke night.
In a way, he's right. When we rocked up, all sushi train plates, regardless of colour, were $3.80 each. There was a decent selection too. From massive bowls of edamame to pairs of grilled eel nigiri, Aaron managed to make a complete meal out of several plates.
Most of us, however, chose to go a la carte.
I had a green tea milkshake to start off with ($5-something). I love the combination of malt and matcha powder so I knew this drink could not fail. It was the perfect accompaniment to my meal…
… the Banzai burger ($14.80), which came with shichimi fries. My burger was surprisingly small but it did manage to fill me up. A soft chargrilled beef patty came basted with a sweet teriyaki glaze and was topped with lettuce, red onion, pickles and 'our awesome Japanese mustard' and ketchup. The burger was alright but I wouldn't say it was worth a thumbs up. The chips, however, were tasty – and certainly could have done without the wasabi mayo which just tasted odd and out of place with the whole thing.
There was also a salad. Called an 'Asian slaw', it was pretty much a heap of raw cabbage and capsicums mixed in with dried egg noodles (you know those Trident ones you make chocolate spiders with?) feebly held together by a ponzu dressing. It was bland and remained untouched for most of the evening.
The others also did a la carte. I didn't get to try any other dishes but I got varying responses from 'pretty good' (a fried rice dish) to 'yeah, it's o-kaaaaay' (Marwin, I was not convinced that you liked your $21 chicken bento box). Either way, the a la carte dishes were not cheap compared to the sushi train plates and the quality wasn't justified by the prices either.
I guess if you were looking for a feed before a karaoke session and felt like Japanese, then Japas would please a non-fussy group but for those looking for a bit more substance, I would suggest going to Grill'd or Nandos.
18 Comments on Japas
Yeah, my karaoke voice is pretty shit too. No Guns 'n' Roses for me either – I'd be voiceless the next day.
I had perhaps one good meal at Tamadochi, and the one I had at Japas was fairly average. Nandos all the way 😉Reply
The green tea milkshake sounds good. I also have a deep voice for a Filipino woman. No karaoke for me!Reply
Idk if my voice is deep or not-deep… but I'm not a fab singer.Reply
I never used to sing at karaoke cos I was self conscious… but yeah after a few drinks I'm screaming into the mic as well!
Welcome to the Jungle?Sweet Child of Mine? November Rain?Reply
i want some japas lolReply
Ugh. I never like it when restaurants label their foods "Asian". It's so stereotypical and non transcendant of true, exotic Asian flavours. Normally just plain soy sauce or sweet chilli sauce. That aside, we should totally go and rock out to some Karaoke tunes one day Liiiiiib. Like you said, doesn't take much for us to get on our feets and start singing our lungs out heheheReply
OK I have a low voice too and I was told that I couldn't sing in the choir at school! So as a result I don't think I can sing. But the thing is, I really don't think i can 😛Reply
For being Asian, I kind of hate karaoke, lol…I'm diggin' that burger though!!Reply
*shock* karaoke doesn't have to be about singing! It can be yelling the song and getting your frustrations out xD On another note I guess my suspicions were right about that place. Better off going GAMI to get yummy fried chicken and beer for a karaoke sesh!Reply
I think even if I WERE Asian, nobody would want me along on Karaoke night. I can't carry a tune in a bucket. I much prefer to spend a little more and get a memorable meal. Okaaay is never okay.Reply
I don't believe you love! I think your deep voice is very SEXYYYYY 😉 and lol you don't want to sing kareoke with me EVER wakkaka i'm pretty horrible 😛 Everything here looks simple and yum ~ i want that MATCHA milkshake so MUCH 😀 Can we go back together? PWEETY Please!Reply

Top 10: Credit Sequences
With that in mind, here is an attempt to cull together the top 10 opening credit sequences. This was a deep field, so there are many regretful omissions.
Number 10
Lord of War (2005)Director: Andrew Niccol
Budget: $42 million
Starring Nicolas Cage, Lord of War was an interesting, but frustratingly meandering examination of a rogue weapons dealer. What really caught the eye of moviegoers, however, was the film's innovative credit sequence. The arrangement takes the viewer through the process of how a single bullet is made and how it ends up on the battle field. The sequence manages the rare trick of being both visually interesting and informative.
Number 9
Flash Gordon (1980)Director: Mike Hodges
Budget: $35 million
Raving about the cool comic-book homage opening credits of the recent Spider-Man or Fantastic Four movies? Please pay your proper respects to this old nugget, which is still the best of the genre. Flash Gordon was a bust at the box office when it was released in the early '80s, but it has developed a large cult following since, due in large part to the rush provided by its fantastic opening credit sequence that's fueled by Queen's original theme song.
Number 8
Reservoir Dogs (1992)Director: Quentin Tarantino
Budget: $1.2 million
Reservoir Dogs is proof that flash and cash isn't a prerequisite to a great credit sequence. So minimalist and technologically simple is Reservoir Dogs' credit sequence — the slow motion swagger of a group of well-dressed killers — that it's a shock that someone didn't replicate its effectiveness sooner. Like all Tarantino innovations, the credit sequence from Dogs has been cloned numerous times since its 1992 release.
Number 7
Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997)Director: Jay Roach
Budget: $17 million
More than a decade past and a couple of middling sequels on, it's easy to discount the impact of the original Austin Powers. The film's delightfully dippy dance opening in the credit sequence draws on a host of British influences that range from A Hard Day's Night to Peter Sellers, and it was bursting with the same creativity that would make Austin Powers one of the best comedies of its time.
Number 6
Dawn of the Dead (2004)Director: Zack Snyder
Budget: $28 million
No matter what you think of the accompanying film, it's hard to deny the visceral genius of Dawn of The Dead's one-of-a-kind opening credit sequence. Taking a series of blood-drenched cuts depicting various violent acts, tossing in some artistic pretension and, most vitally, Johnny Cash's "The Man Comes Around," this credit sequence was a great concept carried off startlingly well.
There are five more worthy credit sequences…

We hopped on the exercise-ball-as-office-seating bandwagon pretty early on, but while we still use the ball occasionally, we're more likely to perch on something that's harder to fall off of. Since we like to have the ball around - it's great to watch the boss try and sit on it for a serious convo - we're considering this Balance Ball Cover ($300) as a way to make our workspace look less like a Gymboree and more like a place of business.

DIY Tiffany Lamp
At Suzy's Artsy-Craftsy Sitcom, Suzy tells about what went through her mind when she first saw this lamp at a thrift store. "To the average person, this might look like a piece of 80's furniture that needs to be put firmly in the back of the attic, but to me...I see awesome potential. I see a Tiffany lamp!"

Vienna Coffee Company, the greater Knoxville area's only commercial-scale coffee roastery, prepares a number of great espresso blends including [quotes from the Vienna Coffee Company website]
- Espresso Bella - "A lovely, rich espresso blend, smooth enough to enjoy as brewed coffee too!"
- Espresso con Robusta, Little River Style - "Our classic Espresso Blend, Viennese roast. Merely 10% Robusta beans finish this perfectly for Espresso based drinks."
- Organic Thunderhead Espresso - "Blended first for Thunderhead Perk. A rich, socially aware espresso blend."
Each of these espressos is great, and for different reasons, and the Vienna Coffee Espresso Bella, highlighted here, is really a top-notch espresso blend for pulling shots, making lattes or mochas, or even for enjoying out of the French press as a cup of brewed coffee.
The Knoxville Coffee Examiner first picked this blend while visiting the roastery in Maryville (at 106 Everett Ave.), where a nice tour of the facilities and a great selection of coffees right at the source await visitors during usual Monday through Friday business hours. When he picked it up, he was advised, despite the remark on their website about the coffee, that it is a blend "ideal for pulling shots," an admonition that he received a second time the next time he picked it up at the roastery.
So, how does this espresso blend perform in each of those situations?
As an espresso, "pulled in shots," Vienna is right on. This blend produces a very full espresso flavor reminiscent of the full-bodied, "stand-your-spoon-in-it" taste of properly pulled espresso in Tuscany. Vienna claims the same thing on their website: "This blend of three Central American beans and two roasting depths is designed to let you experience the true character of Italy's finest espresso," a feat they achieve by blending lovely "bittersweet dark-roasted beans" with more "aromatic medium-dark beans." The shots are consistently good with a rich coffee nose and a round, full mouth feel and nary a trace of acidity.
For lattes and mochas, Bella stands up incredibly well to the milk, cocoa, and sugar (if desired) by standing firmly in its full-bodied, dark-roasted coffee roots. The distinct flavors of coffee come through, and the body is amplified through the additions of steamed or scalded milk, good cocoa powder, top-shelf sugar, and smooth microfoam. This, of course, is to be expected out of any robust espresso in the Italian style, such as Espresso Bella.
As a brewed cup, Bella is a different kind of animal. The first, most noteworthy experience of the coffee (brewed in a French press with 200 F water for 3 minutes) is it's overwhelming smoothness and pronounced lack of acidity. That aside, it makes a well rounded, full-bodied taste (as would be expected) that comes off just a little toasted and perhaps a smidge flat. For a low-acidity brew, however, it's one of the better ones available. With cream and/or sugar, this decent, easy-drinking coffee, which is perhaps ideal for an after-lunch pick-me-up, keeps its underlying character while giving up distinct caramel and toffee notes with just a hint of natural nuttiness.
Overall, if the plan is to pull shots, particularly in the shot-after-shot fashion, Espresso Bella will not disappoint in the least, even if that plan changes to include a little or plenty of frothy milk or a bit of cocoa. If instead the plan is to brew it up without pressure, expect a solid but rather plain cup that delivers true dark-roasted coffee character without any overtly exciting or adventurous notes.

Argentina, US To Revive AML Intelligence-Sharing
Argentina's financial crimes agency says it's close to reaching an information-sharing agreement with the U.S. Treasury Department, reports Dow Jones Newswires' Ken Parks.
The U.S. suspended a previous arrangement between the administration of President Cristina Fernandez and the U.S. government's financial intelligence unit, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, in 2009, after a high-profile leak.
That year, Argentine media reported that FinCEN had disclosed to its counterpart in Buenos Aires that it was investigating financial transactions linked to a prominent member of the Argentine opposition.
Jose Sbattella, president of the Argentine financial crimes agency, known by its Spanish acronym UIF, told Dow Jones that his unit had new safeguards in place to prevent leaks. He said he hoped to sign an agreement with FinCEN by February.
FinCEN's public affairs office declined to comment.
Argentina overhauled its anti-money laundering efforts last year, after an inspection by the Financial Action Task Force, or FATF, revealed serious shortcomings.
Corruption Currents recently profiled Argentina as part of our series on countries that have seen a rise in corruption in recent years.

The weapons are the Predator's pride. The arsenal comprises of the:
1. Ceremonial dagger;
2. Combi stick (housing a telescopic spear);
3. Gauntlet plasma bolt;
4. Power glove (demolishing objects with pulsated kinetic energy);
5. Laser nets (targeting and tracking),
6. Sword;
7. Netgun (fires man-size nets);
8. Plasma caster (shoulder mounted energy weapon);
9. Predicomp (self-destruct device);
10. Chakram (bommerang discus with spikes);
11. Shuriken (melee weapon with retractable blades);
12. Solvent (blue corrosive chemical that dissolves organic material);
13. Spear gun (rifle that fires small bifurcated metal darts at high velocity);
14. Whip;
15. Wrist/arm blades (sharp blades retract from wristbands)
These various accessories can be purchased separately and contribute to making a more authentic Predator Costume.

Christina is a young girl, about 12-13 years old, and is a little shy. One of the reasons for this is because her parents didn't really like her when she was younger.
She has very long brown hair, with 2 ribbon-like clips in it, which hasn't been cut in a very long time. She wears an odd dress, which has short blue sleeves, a pink heart in the middle, and from the bottom of the heart down to the end of the dress, it's light pink.
Christina also has a sister, who is much older than her. She would always be creating these machines, dangerous machines. And she didn't want Christina in her way.
Christina can barely remember what happened long ago, but it still makes her very sad, so she tries not to think about it.
As far as she knows, she was out in the forest, supposedly camping with her family. She got lost, and when she finally found her way back, everyone was gone...
Christina's favorite activity would probably be playing Hide and Seek, it's a bit childish, but fun to her, since the forest has a lot of good places you can hide in.
She doesn't have a favorite food, there isn't a lot to eat around there. But she's learned to live with it.
Christina actually does have a little PSI, but isn't really that aware of it. She doesn't realize that it's the reason she can talk to animals...
Christina waves.
"Hello! You probably already know this...but my name's Christina.
I'm pretty energetic, I guess...and I love to sing...although I'm not very good at it.
I'd rather not tell you about my past...a lot of bad things happened...and er...I don't have any parents, or siblings.
It gets kind of lonely in the forest sometimes, but I'm getting used to it. Besides, there are animals I can talk to, but to tell the truth, not many can stay long enough for a chat!
Um...when I get angry, for some reason, my hands start to give off this weird red glow. I don't know how long they've been doing that for...and I don't really know what it is. It kind of scares me..."

When to move to stage I foods? Hello I just started my 6 month old on rice cereal - he is maybe having 1/2 to 1 teaspoon each time, twice a day. Am a first time mom so just wondering when I should introduce the Stage I veggies and fruits in his diet? Thank youposted 03/25/2011 by a BabyCenter Member
You can use a microwave if you make sure the food is heated all the way through, and stir it a lot, because there may be hot spots and baby could get a burn. I usually just pureed some of what we were having that night at dinner time, or lunch time. You will need to remember that seasoning can be added after baby's portion is taken and put aside. Take care!posted 06/28/2010 by paintlisapurple
For the person who said that they couldn't get the stringyness out of the food, after you cook the food and put it through the processor, blender, or whatever your method, simply pour through a strainer afterwards. I fed all three of my other children mostly homemade baby food. It was a great way to save a little money, and gave me a peace of mind that I knew what was going into their little bodies.posted 06/18/2010 by paintlisapurple
is it ok to use the microwave oven to heat up the food for babies?posted 06/28/2010 by laura_leo
I'd like some more information on baby food making too. I did make some with my daughter, but as I got to the veggies I couldn't get the stringyness out of the food. Adding water didn't take out the strings of food...what can I do?posted 06/03/2010 by derrickandsarah7

ITS Services Status
Cooper Notification, the vendor for the RSAN emergency text message system, has set up a test system to exactly mirror UT Austin's RSAN and they are trying to replicate the issue (note- all of the devices on the test system have been disabled, so no one will receive any of these tests). They are working to replicate the launch of the alert following the same procedures used Friday morning on the test server until they see the multiple deliveries as well. This testing is being coordinated through David Cronk with Emergency Preparedness who can answer any follow-up questions. No further action is required from ITS at this time.
Cooper Notification, the vendor for the RSAN emergency text message system, is investigating if there was a glitch within their system when the text message split due to the message length. If they do not find the source of the problem there, then they will investigate to see if it was a problem with the aggregator. There will be no other updates until Monday.
We are continuing to investigate this problem. We have received reports that it affected Sprint customers as well. We have received no complaints from T-Mobile users. Yet.
There was a problem with ATT and Verizon customers who received multiple duplicate text messages launched from the emergency text messaging system at about 4am this morning. Sprint customers were not affected. A trouble ticket has been opened with our distributed antenna system provider and the carriers have been contacted to investigate.

Officer Buckle and Gloria by Peggy Rathmann
Officer Buckle is a roly-poly bloke, dedicated to teaching schoolchildren important safety tips, such as never put anything in your ear and never stand on a swivel chair. The problem is, Officer Buckle's school assemblies are dull, dull, dull, and the children of Napville just sleep, sleep, sleep. That is, until Gloria the police dog is invited along! Stealthily pantomiming each safety tip behind Officer Buckle's back, Gloria wins the children's hearts. Meanwhile Officer Buckle assumes the cheers and laughter are all for him.

The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall
This summer the Penderwick sisters have a wonderful surprise: a holiday on the grounds of a beautiful estate called Arundel. Soon they are busy discovering the summertime magic of Arundel's sprawling gardens, treasure-filled attic, tame rabbits, and the cook who makes the best gingerbread in Massachusetts. But the best discovery of all is Jeffrey Tifton, son of Arundel's owner, who quickly proves to be the perfect companion for their adventures.
The icy-hearted Mrs. Tifton is not as pleased with the Penderwicks as Jeffrey is, though, and warns the new friends to stay out of trouble. Which, of course, they will—won't they? One thing's for sure: it will be a summer the Penderwicks will never forget.

The Tale of Desperaux by Kate DiCamillo
Welcome to the story of Despereaux Tilling, a mouse who is in love with music, stories, and a princess named Pea. It is also the story of a rat called Roscuro, who lives in the darkness and covets a world filled with light.

As Kate DiCamillo would say: Reader, it is your destiny to find out.

Sept. 2, 2012
IOWA CITY, Iowa -- It was more of the same from the University of Iowa women's soccer team Sunday afternoon as the Hawkeyes (6-0-0) cruised to a victory over Valparaiso (2-2-1). Iowa won, 3-1, at the Iowa Soccer Complex and is the only undefeated team remaining in the Big Ten.
The Hawkeyes improved their nonconference win streak to 15 matches, as sophomores Melanie Pickert (4') and Cloe Lacasse (23') and senior Dana Dalrymple (63') scored. Iowa held big advantages in the score sheet, outshooting the Crusaders 25-11 with an 11-4 advantage in shots on target.
Iowa is off to one of its best starts in program history, second to only last year's team that won its first eight contests.
"We had an emotional game Friday, so we wanted to come out with more good energy and get good repetitions out there again today," said head coach Ron Rainey. "We saw some good moments of that, and we're pleased to win this contest."
The Hawkeyes opened the scoring, just as they have each game this season, on a firecracker free kick from sophomore defender Melanie Pickert. After a foul from Valparaiso, Pickert took the free kick from 35-yards out. She roped the ball just under the corner of the crossbar, leaving goalkeeper Kristen Manski with little hope for a save. It was Pickert's first career goal.
"We talk a lot about goals that would work against anybody, and that was a goal that not many keepers could have prevented," said Rainey. "She hit that pretty well. We've seen her do that in practice at times, and it was great to see it in a game."
Iowa padded its advantage in the 23rd minute, going ahead 2-0 on a goal from sophomore Cloe Lacasse. Lacasse stole the ball in the attacking third and maneuvered past a Crusader defender to fire a shot into the bottom corner. Lacasse has seven goals, and has already tallied 18 points on the young season.
Freshman goalkeeper Meg Goodson started between the posts, notching two saves without allowing a goal in 45 minutes of play. Goodson improved to 2-0-0 on the season, as fellow freshman Hannah Clark took over in the second half. Iowa and Valparaiso were even at eight shots a piece in the first half, but the Hawkeyes held a 5-2 advantage in shots on goal. Iowa also led, 5-2, in corner kicks.
The Hawkeyes opened the second half aggressively, challenging Valparaiso with a barrage of shots. It would pay off for Iowa, as Dalrymple scored her second goal of the season and the 10th of her career in the 63rd minute. With heavy traffic in front of goal, senior Jade Grimm was able to service Dalrymple with a tremendous pass at the six-yard box. Dalrymple's shot beat Manski as Iowa took a 3-0 lead.
"I really liked how we started the second half," said Rainey. "We challenged the players at halftime, and they each came out and responded to that well for the most part."
A Hawkeye miscue led to Valparaiso's first goal of the match in the 75th minute. Senior Luisa Desario intercepted an Iowa back-pass, and fired a shot from just outside the 18-yard box to score.
Iowa outshot the Crusaders 18-3 in the second half, and was able to put the game on ice. Clark recorded one save in replacement of Goodson at goalkeeper for the Hawkeyes. Junior Ashley Catrell led the Hawkeyes with eight shots, three of them on goal. Lacasse (3), sophomore Anne Marie Thomas (2), Dalrymple (2) and senior Gabrielle Ainsworth (2) also led Iowa in shots.
Iowa has outscored its opponents 21-2 this season, and has scored at least three goals in every match. No other team in program history has allowed fewer goals through six games than this year's team. The Hawkeyes have a 59-23 advantage in shots on goal against its opponents this season, as well as a 119-57 advantage in shots.
Iowa has won its last 15 nonconference matches, outscoring its opponents 62-7 in that stretch. Iowa is also undefeated in its last 16 nonconference matches, dating back to Sept. 17, 2010.
The Hawkeyes will be at the Black Knight Classic next week in West Point, N.Y. Iowa will face Army on Friday at 7 p.m., and will face LIU-Brooklyn on Sunday at 10 a.m. "We need to have a good week of practice to build more confidence before we take on two teams in Army and Long Island that each qualified for the NCAA Tournament last season," said Rainey.

Spotted it at the newly opened Smart-PLDT Jump Store at SM MegaMall CyberZone last night:
Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, the thinnest tablet out in the market today -- according to Samsung.
My initial observations on the device:
1. It's lighter than iPad2 -- because its shell is made largely of glossy plastic vs. iPad2's aluminum body.
2. It's actually thinner than iPad2 -- but I think the latter's tapered edges make Apple's tablet feel a tad more sleek.
3. Despite having a plastic case, Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 nonetheless feels well-constructed. You can hold it with one hand on one side and not worry that it might crack in the middle.
4. I'm impressed with the user interface. It's neat and quite easy to use.
5. Love the front-facing camera. I can imagine me and my friends having fun with it in a party -- taking wacky group photos.
6. The tablet handles multi-tasking quite well. Transitions feel smooth too. The dual core chip does its thing well.
7. The keyboard is a joy to use. Even if you have really big fingers, I don't think you'll have a problem using it.
8. There's a virtual screen capture button found in the 'taskbar', which comes really handy for when you want to show one section of the UI on your blog or to share what you're doing on your tablet with your friends on Facebook; You won't find this feature in Android 3.0. Some are saying that the reason for the delayed release of Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is because Samsung wanted to have Android 3.1 running smoothly on it.
Watch my rather lengthy Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 hands-on video (pardon the incessant shaking and the redundant shots) --
No official word yet on pricing details nor exact release date. My guesstimate on the SRP? Around Php 30,000-38,000. Should come bundled with top tier Smart Data Plans too.
UPDATE as of October 3, 2011: The official SRP of Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 in the Philippines is Php 30,000. Please note, TP Friends.

Deposed President opens up museum to celebrate his reign
Surrounded by controversy and amid rumors he agreed to leave the country "to seek medical treatment", deposed President Ali Abdullah Saleh set up a museum to celebrate and commemorate his three decades in power.
Yemen's former strong man who was swept away by the Arab Spring, having seen his reign dissolves under the revolutionary sun is now showcasing "himself" in a wing of the Saleh Mosque - Yemen's most magnificent and opulent mosque build to date -
Visitors will be from now on able to marvel at Yemen's fallen autocratic regime, perusing over the many gifts ousted President Saleh was given by state officials and dignitaries throughout the years he spent in power.
But most incredibly of all, visitors will be able to view the very clothes ex-President Sale wore on the day his palace was bombed -- his suit, or rather what is left of it, pieces of shrapnels doctors had to remove from Saleh's broken body, his glasses and watch --
Abbas Mohammed al-Nawirah, one of the museum workers tolf the press "The private possessions of President Ali Abdullah Saleh were transferred to al-Saleh Mosque (where the museum is located), and what is public property was left at the Presidential Palaces."
With only a few minor details to go over before the exhibit can be officially open to the public, one is left to wonder what Yemenis will make of this rather extraordinary display.

A syllabus for Thanksgiving break
"Last night I sat there struggling with the duty I have to destroy that innocent notion of hers, a notion born of my ignorance and my privilege, the privilege shared by so many other well-intentioned but naive white parents."
Stuff I found while looking around
This week's link roundup. I could have just posted the video of that dog and we'd all be done for the day.
Stuff I found while looking around
This week's link roundup featuring dogs, race, bipolar disorder, human trafficking, and exercise balls. And one very specific tweet that has me snorting. I'll let you guess which one.
Stuff I found while looking around
Because I can't and won't be done talking about it. Another hat tip to Kelly.
"Much as water can be taken for granted by a fish"
Guilt is a pretty useless, ineffectual emotion. Guilt is not what I feel when coming to these realizations. In fact, I feel duty.

With the 2008 presidential election nearing, the Lindsey Wilson College community has several events planned to celebrate the republic's quadrennial national event.
Thanks to Lindsey Wilson Government Documents Coordinator Kim Hamlett, the Katie Murrell Library has a display about presidential nominees Barack Obama and John McCain.
Despite 151 yards from the school's all-time leading rusher Greg Fountain and a five-touchdown passing day from freshman Ross Deaton, Campbellsville University never led in a 61-41 Mid-South Conference road setback at Virginia-Wise on Saturday.
Fountain, who scored a touchdown, carried the ball 25 of the 41 times for the Tigers while Deaton threw for 253 yards on 18 of 33 passing.
Deaton connected twice with David Mason and former Campbellsville High School standout Bubba Lawless and once with Calvin Mann.
The numbers aren't looking good.
Last year, victims' advocate Heather Barnes investigated 215 domestic violence complaints. This year, she has already investigated 296 ... and that's only through the end of September.
There were 273 days from January through September, which means that there has been more than one a day.
Like we said, the numbers aren't looking good.
And that's sad.
October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, a time when officials try their best to get the word out that it doesn't have to be this way.
Major William Todd Caldwell, U.S. Air Force, was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel on Sept. 1.
He is stationed at Los Angeles Air Force Base, El Segundo, Calif., where he serves as deputy program manager for the space surveillance satellite system.
Caldwell is a 1989 graduate of Taylor County High School, a 1993 graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy, and received a master's degree in astronautical engineering from the Air Force Institute of Technology in 1998.
Emily Anne Minor and Derrick Allan Keltner, both of Campbellsville, will exchange wedding vows on Saturday, Nov. 22.
Minor is the daughter of Bobby and Diane Minor of Campbellsville. Her grandparents are James and Betty Tungate of Campbellsville and the late Spencer and Lorene Minor.
She is a 2006 graduate of Taylor County High School and a 2007 graduate of The Hair Design School of Elizabethtown.
Taylor County High School Class of 1958 recently hosted its 50-year reunion at Winters Dining Hall on Campbellsville University's campus. Those in attendance are from left, front: Bobby Roberts, Janet Caffee Kessler, Mary Lou Hedgespeth Corbin, Margarie Bault Colvin, Betty Sue Marcum Gilpin, Joyce Sprowles, Jetty Sue Tungate Noel, Nancy Sue Clark Bland, Mary Louise Hiestan Carter and Faye Colvin Kuegel.
Giving thanks is what the approaching Thanksgiving season is all about. But sometimes it's more difficult to do that than it should be.
We all have much for which we should be thankful. But how often do we express our appreciation?
If you're like me, then it's not often enough.
You see, it's too easy to complain ... Who forgot to empty the dishwasher? Whose turn was it to feed the dogs? The laundry is piling up, the garbage needs taking out, the car needs vacuuming, the kids' bedrooms are a disaster ... I could go on and on.
The Campbellsville/Taylor County Fire Department responded to a house fire Monday at 409 S. Jackson St. at nearly midnight that caused extensive damage to the home.
After arriving, firefighters found smoke coming from the entire structure. Forcible entry was used to gain access to the home, and firefighters found that the fire had spread throughout the entire building, which is owned by Jeremiah Perkins of Lexington.
The Central Kentucky Arts Series will present Charles Rosen as the next performer of the 2008-2009 season.
Rosen, a widely respected and internationally-known pianist, will perform Monday, Oct. 27 at 8 p.m. in the Ransdell Chapel on the Campbellsville University campus.
The performance is co-sponsored by the Kentucky Music Teachers Association, which will be hosting its annual conference at Campbellsville University during the same weekend.
Ceondre Barnett can hardly see. He was sound asleep when the sound of a smoke alarm woke him up. Now his room is filled with smoke. He gets out of bed and drops to the floor, crawling toward his bedroom door. Seeing smoke pouring into his room from under his door, he grabs a towel he had left on his floor and stuffs it under the door. He then runs to a window, opens it and calls for help.
While that scenario may have only been a part of Campbellsville Fire Department's annual fire prevention exercises, it certainly could have been real.

Orthodox Churches
Patriarch Kirill celebrates the memory of St. Vladimir at Kiev Monastery of the Caves30. July 2012 - 9:37
On July 28, 2012, the commemoration day of the Holy Prince Vladimir Equal-to-the-Apostles and the Day of the Baptism of Russia, a national holiday in Russia, Belarus and Ukraine, His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia celebrated the Divine Liturgy at the Kiev-Caves Laura of the Holy Dormition.
His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia begins his primatial visit to Ukraine27. July 2012 - 11:13
The official delegation of the Russian Orthodox Church accompanying His Holiness includes Metropolitan Varsonofiy of Saransk and Mordovia, chancellor of the Moscow Patriarchate; Metropolitan Hilarion of Volokolamsk, chairman of the Moscow Patriarchate's Department for External Church Relations (DECR); Bishop Sergiy of Solnechnogorsk, head of the Administrative Secretariat of the Moscow Patriarchate; archpriest Vsevolod Chaplin, chairman of the Synodal Department for Church-State Relations; Mr. Vladimir Legoida, chairman of the Synodal Information Department; archpriest Nikolai Balashov, DECR deputy chairman; archimandrite Savva (Tutunov), deputy chancellor of the Moscow Patriarchate; archpriest Igor Yakimchuk, DECR secretary for inter-Orthodox relations; protodeacon Vladimir Nazarkin, assistant to the DECR chairman; Mr. Mikhail Kuksov, acting head of the Patriarch's personal secretariat.
On the fact of desecration of an Orthodox church in Kosovo by extremists27. July 2012 - 11:07
The Russian Orthodox Church has received with pain the news of a new extremists's attack against the Orthodox Church of Serbia in the Province of Kosovo.
This time the blashemists attacked the Church of St. Michael in Štimlje. The church building was looted and desecrated. Unidentified vandals damaged fragments of the murals and knocked off paint from the countenances of the saints. Garbage, sewage and dead birds were put within the church building.
The Church of St. Michael was built in Štimlje and decorated by the famous Serbian artist Uroš Predić (1857-1953). In August 1999, the anti-Christian minded extremists set fire to the church, and the iconostasis was destroyed. During 2004, and in the course of the anti-Serbian pogroms in March in particular, it was not once that the foes of the Church set the church building on fire, desecrated it and disfigured the countenances of the saints depicted on church walls.
In 2009, the restoration work began with UNESCO assistance. However, the recent incident compels us to state with regret that the attitude of certain residents of the Province of Kosovo remains as intolerant as it used to be in the past.
Testifying to this attitude is an assault against the Orthodox monk Mitrofan (Bulajić) by some residents of Kosovska Mitrovica on 13 June 2012. He was admitted to a surgery with injuries to his head and arm.
Police of the self-proclaimed republic were not able to prevent either the beating up of the monk, or the act of vandalism in Štimlje. Repeated attacks of the extremists against churches, priests, monks and laymen of the Serbian Orthodox Churches in Kosovo and Metohija cause grave concern in the Russian Orthodox Church as they show the lack of effective measures aimed at their protection by the forces of international presence in the province.

"Your visit will give us an opportunity to share our opinions on various issues on the agenda of the Orthodox Churches. Recalling my visit to the Church of Alexandria, I will always remember how cordially I was received on the African continent. Welcome, dear brother!", – said His Holiness Patriarch Kirill.

Arash Usmanee took on Rances Barthelemy on the 2013 Friday Night Fights season debut main event, and I am pretty sure got himself a semi permament gig on the series, with his effort, which screamed effort and a willingness to please. Barthlemey started off strong and felt like he was in the driver's seat, but Usmanee got lubed up, and got to work. He pulled away from round three or four on...but didn't get the love from the judges, who scored for Barthelemy, by scores of 115-113, 116-112, 116-112.
Upon hearing the news, Bart dropped to his knees, and thanked the powers that be. "Whoa," said Joe Tessitore. "Hometown!"
The Magic City Casino was the venue where Usmanee felt that same sting, that same stupefication so many valiant battlers feel every year.
Teddy Atlas went ballistic. "It might be a new year but the same old bad judging...It's either incompetence or it's corruption," he thundered. "That is disgraceful! Happy new year to you same old disgraceful judges. Happy new year!"
Usmanee went 282-1,088, to 238-824 for the "winner."
Atlas saw it 117-111 for the "loser," a fine card in my eyes.
I guess the record will read that Barthelemy rises to 18-0, while Usmanee goes to 20-1...but most know better.
The lightweight scrap took place in Miami, with the Canada-based Usmanee eating a some solid body shots in round one. The Cuban dropped his hands, went lefty, and got cocky towards the end of the first. His jab was popping on the shorter Usmanee. The smaller man didn't fold though; he looked to bang to the body himself, but his low hands left him open, too open, too often, through three. He moved his head and torso and legs enough to keep him from getting cracked clean too often, however. Bart can be a wild swinger, whose balance is sometimes off a bit. He squared up in the fourth and fifth, and didn't jab like he did earlier.
The Cuban heard it between rounds and came out jabbing. He then abandoned that plan. Usmanee got into a flow, got confident and sent the message to the judges that he wanted it more, appearing to work harder, and having the edge in volume. Usmanee, born in Afghanistan, recalled that the two men had sparred but said that was years ago, and that he'd grown since then. In round nine, Bart had more mustard on his shots. In the tenth, Usmanee suffered a cut, on the bridge of his nose. They rumbled in 11 and 12, with Bart eating clean rights. Usmanee worked harder, had more gas left and took it on my card.
