Personally I didn't ...Hi Janet - good question! Personally I didn't have any trouble with it. I think the concern with bias edges is that they may stretch and distort. My rows came together just fine anyway, and the quilt didn't seem to get bent or distorted during the quilting process, so I didn't have a problem with it. But there's certainly a chance those things could happen. If you want to avoid it, you could always cut larger squares (twice as large? not sure if my math is correct), and cut the squares into 4 triangles instead of just 2. That would give you triangles with straight-grain edges.

Thanks for reading! Please post a picture of your finished quilt to my Flickr group, http://www.flickr.com/groups/1773074@N21/. I would love to see it! : )Leehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7256649576715716272.post-1984026717909050932012-01-31T13:56:11.469-06:002012-01-31T13:56:11.469-06:00I have a question about your setting triangles.......I have a question about your setting triangles....are their bias edges on the edge of your quilt? Did you have trouble with that? I thought bias edges were to be avoided, and that you'd need bigger squares for setting triangles, so that the big side (hypotenuse?) is on-grain. I am so scared of setting triangles for this reason. Thanks. Love love love your quilt and am trying to make it for my grandbaby.

TC TO CHARLES BUTLER ; 6 September 1859; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18590906-TC-CBU-01; CL 35: 194
Auchtertool, Kirkcaldy N.B. / (for Chelsea, London) / 6 Septr, 1859—
My dear Sir,
The day before yesterday, I received your Letter, with its Inclosure,—£14 half-yearly Dividend,1—date New York 17 Augt; punctual as that always is, like the movements of the Zodiac:—and can only again thank you for all the kind skill & trouble you expend on my behalf. The Investment of the £1,0002 appears to be complete in all its parts; and could not be surpassed in any of the qualities required in such a transaction. So soon as the Document you talk of ("Certificate" or whatever the name is) comes to hand, I will lock it well away; and have the pleasure of thinking that human art could do nothing more for me in regard to that particular bit of business,—for whh I myself was so little qualified, and whh nevertheless was required at my hands under penalty. The investt seems to be as safe as any in this mutable world can be; and clearly enough the rate of interest is as 7 to 4, compared to any I could find, on what were judged sure terms, in this country.3 You have very much obliged me; and if the consciousness of that can be any recompense, most surely it is yours, with the wish on my part that I had a better to offer!—
We have been here, in the Scotch maritime regions (pleasant country, across the Frith from Edinburgh), for above two months past; endeavouring to gather a little strength out of the blessed Summer, instead of being stewed to despair by it in the heats of London. We were both of us, especially my Wife, at a very low ebb before removing hither; and both of us, especially she, have derived some visible profit; and hope to front the Winter on rather better terms. I, alas, have still my Task mainly ahead of me; and it is horrible to me4 to think of! But I must do my best & wisest; and hope to struggle thro' by some kind of miracle! In 2 weeks more we are to be in Chelsea; and must try.——with many kind regards & thanks, I am ever, Yours sincerely T. Carlyle

Ending a string of tough scheduling, the Cheney girls' tennis team is coming off a few close losses. But, easier opportunities are right around the corner.
Losses to Pullman, East Valley, Colville and West Valley left a sting, but the team has played well throughout, head coach Jason Overland said.
"I am very happy with how the girls played against Pullman," he said.
Although losing 6-1 against Pullman, the team was able to rebound two days later against East Valley, falling only by 4-3.
After that match, Overland said the girls were starting to gain more confidence. The most impo...

Investors love stocks that consistently beat the Street without getting ahead of their fundamentals and risking a meltdown. The best stocks offer sustainable market-beating gains, with robust and improving financial metrics that support strong price growth. Does NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) fit the bill? Let's take a look at what its recent results tell us about its potential for future gains.
What we're looking for
The graphs you're about to see tell NVIDIA's story, and we'll be grading the quality of that story in several ways:
- Growth: Are profits, margins, and free cash flow all increasing?
- Valuation: Is share price growing in line with earnings per share?
- Opportunities: Is return on equity increasing while debt to equity declines?
- Dividends: Are dividends consistently growing in a sustainable way?
What the numbers tell you
Now, let's take a look at NVIDIA's key statistics:
Passing Criteria
3-Year* Change
Revenue growth > 30%
Improving profit margin
Free cash flow growth > Net income growth
0.4% vs. 73.8%
Improving EPS
Stock growth (+ 15%) < EPS growth
(19.1%) vs. 79.1%
Passing Criteria
3-Year* Change
Improving return on equity
Declining debt to equity
Dividend growth > 25%
Initiated in 2012
Free cash flow payout ratio < 50%
How we got here and where we're going
We first looked at NVIDIA last year, and it has slipped a bit in its second assessment to finish with a still-strong seven out of nine possible passing grades. One failing grade -- the same one that kept NVIDIA from a perfect score last year -- was only because NVIDIA's net income growth exceeded the gains in its free cash flow over the past three years. However, NVIDIA's nominal trailing-12-month free cash flow is more than $100 million higher than its net income. On the other hand, the company's long-term revenue growth has been hindered since last year due to a slowdown in PC sales. How might NVIDIA rev up its revenue growth over the next few quarters and come closer to the perfection that's thus far eluded it? Let's dig a little deeper to find out.
NVIDIA posted better-than-expected revenue and earnings per share for its fiscal fourth quarter earlier this year, primarily on the back of increasing demand for GeForce graphics chips for high-end PC gaming. The launch of graphics-heavy games like Call of Duty: Ghosts, Black Flag, Assassin's Creed IV, and Batman Arkham Origins over the holiday season helped swell NVIDIA's GeForce GTX sales in an otherwise-lousy PC market -- PC games are expected to generate around $20 billion in sales this year.
NVIDIA also introduced two desktop graphics processors based on its new Maxwell architecture earlier this year. The Maxwell chips have already outclassed AMD's Radeon R9270 in power consumption and price for performance terms, which are critical considerations for cost-conscious gamers. Foolish writer Timothy Green points out that NVIDIA's Maxwell-based notebook GPUs are expected to capture a big chunk of the growth in gaming notebooks this year. NVIDIA's $1,000 GeForce GTX Titan Black graphics card has also gained momentum in the ultra-high-end PC gaming market. AMD's (NASDAQ:AMD) Radeon 295X2 GPUs are even costlier, and while it's not likely to be a major driver of sales, this monster card is currently the undisputed king of the high-end market, according to recent head-to-head performance tests. This superiority seriously undercuts NVIDIA's long-standing claim to be gamers' greatest ally in the fight for peak graphics performance.
Earlier this year, NVIDIA also announced the launch of its next-generation Tegra K1 mobile processors, which promise to bring console-quality graphics to mobile devices. The company also foresees strong interest in these chips for use in driver-assistance and self-parking systems for the auto market. Volkswagen will use NVIDIA's Tegra Visual Computing Module to power three new in-car systems, and will use Tegra K1 processors to power its future self-driving initiatives.
Fellow Fool shraf Eassa points out that NVIDIA has not yet won a major placement in mobile for the Tegra K1, which has left investors skeptical about the strength of NVIDIA's future revenue growth. Mobile laggard Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) already boasts more than 90 tablet placements for its Bay Trail-T processor, but that company's crowing could simply be a bit of braggadocio to cover up the fact that it simply isn't a force in mobile yet. NVIDIA doesn't need to crow quite as much because it already has a much larger slice of the mobile pie with its older chips. Tegra-powered NOTE 7 tablets were unveiled at the PAX East 2014 gaming convention, so there are some design wins to speak of, even if NVIDIA doesn't feel the need to toot its horn quite so loudly.
Putting the pieces together
Today, NVIDIA has many of the qualities that make up a great stock, but no stock is truly perfect. Digging deeper can help you uncover the answers you need to make a great buy -- or to stay away from a stock that's going nowhere.
Are you ready to profit from this $14.4 trillion revolution?
Let's face it: Every investor wants to get in on revolutionary ideas before they hit it big. Like buying PC maker Dell in the late 1980s, before the consumer computing boom. Or purchasing stock in e-commerce pioneer Amazon.com in the late 1990s, when it was nothing more than an upstart online bookstore. The problem is, most investors don't understand the key to investing in hyper-growth markets. The real trick is to find a small-cap "pure play" and then watch as it grows in EXPLOSIVE lockstep with its industry. Our expert team of equity analysts has identified one stock that's poised to produce rocket-ship returns with the next $14.4 TRILLION industry.

Land snails of Turkey: Xeropicta smyrnocretica
An e-mail that came a couple of days ago from the editor of a well-known malacological journal brought good news. A manuscript we had submitted had been accepted for publication. However, a reviewer recommended some revisions, one of which concerned the identity of a snail that we were calling Xeropicta smyrnocretica. The snails in the family Hygromiidae are notoriously difficult to identify. So the questioning of the reviewer led me to reconsider the suspect identification.
Here is a brief summary of the existing literature on this species. Germain1 described Helicella (Xerocrassa) cretica var. smyrnocretica in 1933. The type location was specified only as "Environs de Smyrne [= Izmir]). Thirty years later, Forcart2 dissected a specimen and determined that the snail in question was not in Xerocrassa (which he considered a subgenus of Helicopsis), but instead was in Xeropicta (another subgenus). Another 10 years later, Hudec3 examined some specimens that had also been collected in Turkey, which he called, following Forcart, Helicopsis (Xeropicta) smyrnocretica, and emphasized the characteristic sculpture of the shell surface.
There are 3 widespread hygromiids that may be confused with X. smyrnocretica: Cernuella virgata, Xeropicta krynickii and Xerocrassa cretica. However, each has a characteristic that makes it easy to distinguish them from each other. The shell below is one of the specimens that we are identifying as X. smyrnocretica from southeast of Izmir, north of Aydin. It has some irregular and indistinct growth rings.
The photo below shows the microsculpture of the same shell, which consists of very fine regular spiral lines. I believe this is the microsculpture Hudec noted.
Xeropicta krynickii also has a microsculpture somewhat similar to that of X. smyrnocretica, but the former has an eccentric umbilicus unlike that of the latter. So, that rules out X. krynickii. Cernuella virgata can also be eliminated, because it does not have a microsculpture of regular spiral lines. We are left with X. cretica. Luckily, I have on loan some specimens of that species from the Field Museum in Chicago.
Here is a larger picture of X. cretica. Every shell in this lot (and also in another lot) has densely stacked radial ribs as you can see in the photo. That characteristic and also the lack of a distinct microsculpture distinguish this species from X. smyrnocretica.
Having gone thru the specimens and the available literature one more time, I am once again confident of my identification.
1. Germain, L. 1933. Bull. Mus. Nat. Hist. Nat. Paris 5:389-392.
2. Forcart, L. 1963. Arch. Moll. 92:78-79.
3. Hudec, V. 1973. Zoologische Mededelingen 46:231.

i dont remember it being so noisy in the old vids.still walks funny
It's kinda wonder why they would use such an old technology ( inner combustion engine ) for such a high-tech thing!!!
Actually, there is water. There are pure water motors in the works as an alternative to gasoline. Until they are ready for production, there is the Brown Gas Cell (splits H2O {liquid} in HHO {gas}) that increases the mileage on a regular motor up to 100%.

It proved to be a good idea a few hours later. I got plurred, sat in someones throw up, high fived some bros, met a lot of people on Molly and made it to bed by 11 P.M. Line-up included Major Lazer, Matt and Kim, Dillon Fracis, (with the Fat Jew drinking nacho cheese on stage) Flosstradamus, Rockie Fresh, 3Ball MTY, Destructo and Keito and Reija Lee all played a sold out show. The next stop for Mad Decent is Dallas at the end of the month.

Nguyen Donohue
Copyright 2005 Maura Nguyen Donohue
NEW YORK -- Somewhere
in David Neumann's journey through the mythically mundane a voice
tells us to "get what can be gotten." Fair enough. This is a departure
from much of what I have come to expect from this choreographer,
who has impeccable comedic timing, proper hip-hop chops and an intimidating
list of theatrical collaborators. "Tough, the tough," seen Thursday
at Danspace Project at St. Mark's Church, isn't a stunning display
of virtuosic dancing or a hilarious romp (or even a vague, unrealized
group work, like some past Neumann efforts). Playwright Will Eno's
text encourages us to appreciate the magnificence of mankind just
standing around. Neumann's choreography essentially does the same.
But "tough, the tough" is hardly the minimalist borefest this premise
implies. Instead Neumann has woven a meditation on commonplace routine
into a poem rife with subtle shifts, witty inflections and haunting
Dancers Kimiye Corwin,
Taryn Griggs, Karinne Keithley, Erin Wilson, Chris Yon and Neumann
enter the space dressed in maintenance coveralls given just a slight
couture ribboning by designer Miho Nikaido. Appropriate attire for
the pedestrian, overlooked, daily chores that the group meanders
through. There is an eloquence hidden within the repeated act of
making oneself a cup of coffee. Where I had expected my decreasing
mobility to have been at odds with viewing a dance I thought was
going to be about inertia, I find instead that the OCD that has
been rising with my gestational hormone level is overwhelmingly
satisfied by the highly task-oriented movement. Amidst the jumble
of gestures and mumbling, an occasional arabesque stands out in
striking contrast while the dancers perform their duties and travel
their routes with a truly urban myopic zeal. As the work progresses
the gestures accumulate with a dynamic vigor, though Neumann easily
manages the most compelling performance of the evening while barely
Yon stalks and skulks
behind the church's pillars before an awkwardly overeager burst
in the stage proper. He follows with a humorous attempt at casual
recovery. He plays his moments with perfect deadpan, suffering at
the hands of Taryn Griggs during a Marx Brothers-inspired slap routine,
and serves as a fantastic foil to Neumann during an animated duet
that has me wondering what a true changing of the guard at the India-Pakistan
border really looks like.
The score plays off
the sleepy bounce of the church's echoes to greater success than
most. (The program includes credits for composer, to Hal Hartley;
music, from the Pickpockets; live sound, Daniel Barnidge; and sound
design, by Justin Kawashima, Keithley and Jane Shaw.) Rather than
fight the difficult acoustics of the church, Neumann installs a
chorus of performers in the balcony to deliver several sound effects.
Distant chatter and echoing footsteps help create a delirious hallucinatory
ambience. Sound becomes an equal collaborator, allowing me to zone
out with an easy gaze on the dance while I imagine a cocktail party
in the desert that I'm falling asleep at. For a few moments I train
a conscious ear to the sound of the stage manager calling cues mixed
with filmmaker Hartley's ethereal contributions to the score. I'm
taken out to orbit and just as quickly returned to an appreciation
of the choreographic craft at work. The components all work perfectly
in tandem, with nothing incidental or overpowered.
Corwin and Wilson end
the journey with a duet that wanders its way into struggle and conflict
with an engaging bout of grappling. The final poetic image of the
women standing static while confetti drops elsewhere strikes first
as a clever reference to an earlier voiceover demanding "balloons
and then confetti" but leaves us with the bittersweet of an elegy,
perhaps for a lost sibling mentioned in the dedication.

Parenting the Future: Momdoulary Certified Doulas & Parent Coaches are Changing Pregnancy & Parenting As We Know It
Today's parent's face challenges and opportunities unlike any generation before. Recognizing that birthing in today's environment is different from that of any other space in history, Momdoulary, LLC responded by developing the Momdoulary Method Certified Doula and Parent Coaching Program, creating a task force of professionals prepared to spread a ripple of change throughout their communities, helping families better meet those challenges. Helping families build a stronger foundation can create a world of better tomorrows.
Modern parents are greeted by an avalanche of information, much of it conflicting. Women are frequently caught off guard by the powerful changes that accompany pregnancy: a changing body, transitioning relationships (even friendship!), and a whole new array of topics to become educated in – prenatal care, childbirth options, how to feed and care for your baby, which gadgets to acquire or how to support them through different phases and stages.
Experts and businesses vie for her attention and dollars, offering conflicting information and advice. This has given rise to the "Birth" and "Mommy" Wars – a natural response to conflicting information in a climate where one must keep up with the Joneses while always seeking that "one right answer" they learned through years of schooling must magically exist. The result? Super stress!
Beginning with pre-natal care and the forthcoming labor, parents bump into dogmatic attachments to allopathic birth ("The epidural is the answer!") clashing with Natural Childbirth ("All doctors, hospitals, and especially that epidural, are evil!"). This is just the beginning of the competing methods, though. Most know, sense within , that such dogma can't be the answer, yet when experts weigh in on both sides with equally compelling information, neither quite resounds with most parents.
Parents naturally do what anyone would do in such circumstances: Turn to friends and family for advice. Only to find more turmoil and disagreement there! Reality hits: Every choice they are about to make carries political and personal statements. The pressure is on. No mater which path they choose, which options they embrace, they will be judged by others.
The only sane remaining action is to choose for oneself what ''best fits" one's family and needs, regardless of what anyone else thinks. How though, to best determine that? This is where the Momdoulary Professional enters the picture. Certified in 6 areas – birth, postpartum, and ante-partum doula, in-home childbirth educator, parenting preparation coach, and family lifestyle organizer, these new professionals enter a family's life to both educate and to coach them through assessing their options, cutting to the chase in a non-judgmental way, as they help a family navigate options and opportunities, so they can identify what best fits their needs.
These professionals not only educate in terms of childbirth preparation and newborn care options, but guide a family through an assessment process that helps them identify their deeper needs as they enter the brave new world of parenthood. When the Big Day arrives, these professionals show up to provide labor support, guiding mom and partner through an array of comfort measures designed to provide optimal support and efficiency, while ensuring parents understand options, as well as how choices made at any point will impact choices open to them 2 hours or 2 centimeters later.
Support doesn't end there. Far too many parents find themselves without much familial assistance at this time, given geographic challenges. The Momdoulary Professional typically continues assisting parents, as a postpartum doula and new parent coach, helping them navigate the early days of newborn care, as well as helping to coach them through organizing both their home and life commitments in a way that better suits the new path they've embarked upon.
Momdoulary Professionals are no lightweights. "Meeting the needs of modern parents demands quality people, quality education, understanding, and commitment. Here at Momdoulary we focus on excellence. Our qualifying graduates are put through over 200 hours of training, live coaching, Mentorship through their early case-work, and must meet stringent safety training to protect themselves and their clients, such as CPR, Food Handler Safety Training, Blood-Borne Pathogen training, Body Mechanics Safety, Conflict Resolution and more. Our admissions policy is challenging as well, as is our Board Exam. We pride ourselves on turning out the highest quality professional. Families, and future generations, are depending on us. We plan to continue to deliver," said Laura Saba, author, parent educator, doula, and founder of the Momdoulary Method.

Samsung Digimax 410 review
An excellent image quality with 3 possible resolutions and 3 possible JPEG compressions. On top of this, it is full of nice features such as sound recording (image anotation), video recording and the ability to turn the LCD off to save the battery. You can use standard AA batteries (very nice when you are abroad with no AC to charge the Ni-Mh batteries!)
It is a little slow when you turn the camera on before you can shoot (around 9 sec.).
The camera does not memorize the flash setting: it is always on at turn on.

Girl's Stomach Removed After Drinking Liquid Nitrogen Cocktail
The 18-year-old had a perforated stomach.
A teenage girl in England had her stomach surgically removed after she drank at least one cocktail prepared with liquid nitrogen last week. The Sun reports Gaby Scanlon's 18th birthday celebration included two "Nitro Jagermeister" at a Lancaster bar. Scanlon lost her breath and was taken to a nearby hospital, where she was diagnosed with a perforated stomach. Her friends, who were reportedly drinking the same cocktails, did not become ill, but in the meantime, Oscars Wine Bar and Bistro has removed all cocktails made with liquid nitrogen from its menu and are cooperating with a police investigation.

Actress Molly Sims said it took her over a year to lose the 65 pounds she gained while pregnant because of a thyroid condition.
"It was hard work for almost 13, 14 months because of my thyroid issue," said Sims. "But once I knew what it was I got it under control."
The former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model gave birth to son Brooks Alan in June 2012. Despite a strict diet and grueling workouts, Molly had a tough time losing the baby weight because of her thyroid problems.
"I've had to exercise and keep a very, very rigid diet," said Sims, 40. "It's the hardest thing I've done."
After taking thyroid medication, Sims gradually slimmed down and regained her slender pre-baby body. The former Victoria's Secret model now easily maintains her weight loss by being careful with her diet despite working out a lot less.
"I know this is going to sound weird, but I'm actually exercising a little bit less, and watching what I eat a little bit more," said Molly. "I find that sometimes I can over-exercise, where it actually makes me hungrier, to the point where I'm starving! So I've been trying to cut back."
Molly isn't the only celebrity who experienced weight gain due to thyroid issues. In 2008, supermodel Karolina Kurkova, also a former Victoria's Secret Angel, was ridiculed as "too fat to walk the runway" after she abruptly gained 30 pounds due to an under-active thyroid. Getting treated for hypothyroidism helped Karolina shed the excess weight.
Similarly, "Dancing With the Stars" host Brooke Burke-Charvet has battled Hashimoto's disease for over 10 years and takes drugs to manage the thyroid condition. In 2012, Burke-Charvet underwent surgery to treat thyroid cancer. She has since recovered and is doing well.

The 2012 Huskies - Who's Back and Who's New
The last two seasons have seemingly brought NIU Volleyball back to the "glory days" of the 1990s dominant decade (24.5 wins per year, 7 1st place conference finishes, 3 NCAA Tournaments) as the Huskies' 55 wins over the last two seasons were last matched in 1992-93 (62 wins).
With the first Mid-American Conference regular season championship and NCAA Tournament appearance since 2001 last season, 11th-year NIU Head Coach Ray Gooden (184 wins rank 2nd at NIU) and his two new assistants Lynnette Moster and Joe Julkowski will look to keep the upward trend of the program growing while defending its MAC crown and looking to go even further into the postseason.
Who's Back - Three starters - middle blockers Sarah Angelos (Jr.) and Mary Kurisch (Sr.) and defensive specialist Justine Schepler (Jr.) - and libero Amber Walker (Sr.). Angelos and Kurisch were both All-MAC selections in 2011. Also returning are defensive specialist Sue Hayes (Sr.), middle blockers Sam Grams (Sr.) and Emily Paschke (So.), outside hitters Tori Halbur (Jr.), MacKenzie Roddy (So.) and Meghan Romo (Sr.), and setter Kayla Zeno (Jr.). Overall, the Huskies have 71 percent of their blocks, 51 percent of their digs and 43 percent of their kills back.
Who's New - Setter Alexis "Pookie" Gonzalez (Fresno, Calif./Bullard), a 5'9" freshman who earned all-conference honors in her final three prep seasons, and middle blocker Lauren Zielinski (Oak Forest, Ill./Marist), a 6'4" freshman who was a two-time all-conference performer before missing her senior season due to a torn right labrum, and is the tallest Huskie since Kori Schauer (1990-93), who was also listed at 6'4".
Kurisch Named to Preseason All-MAC Team
Voted on by the MAC coaches, senior Mary Kurisch was selected to the 2012 Preseason All-MAC Team on Aug. 22. Starting all 35 matches last season, she was a first team All-MAC and honorable mention Academic All-MAC selection as she set career marks for points (378.5), total blocks (109), digs (80), solo blocks (34), and aces (22). She tallied a hitting percentage of .321 to finish second on team and sixth in the MAC, while compiling 20 matches with 10 or more points for the second straight season. Kurisch enters her final season in a Huskie uniform ranking fourth on the all-time NIU career attack percentage list (.303), 14th in total blocks (288), and 17th in blocks per set (0.81). She has 732 career kills (2.05 per set) and has a chance to become NIU's 19th member of the 1,000 Kill Club as she has tallied over 280 kills in each of the last two seasons.
MAC Coaches Pick NIU to Finish 4th in West
Voted on by the MAC coaches, the Huskies were picked to finish fourth in the MAC West Division. NIU was the league's pick to win the regular season and tournament prior to the 2011 season. This year's favorite in the West and overall is Western Michigan.
Gooden Plenty
Entering his 11th season as NIU head coach, 2011 and 2006 MAC Coach of the Year Ray Gooden is coming off his most successful season as he earned his first regular season MAC championship and NCAA appearance at NIU. The program's second all-time wins leader owns a respectable 184-136 record at NIU, including a 113-91 mark in MAC play and an impressive 113-54 tally at home.
Gooden is in the process of leaving an indelible mark on the program as the top three place holders in kills, kills per set, attack attempts and points all played under Gooden, as well as the top two holders in digs and digs per set.
Additionally, Gooden has coached 22 All-MAC, 16 Academic All-MAC, five MAC All-Freshman and five MAC Player of the Year selections, along with the only seven All-American selections in program history. Five players have also reached the 1,000-kill plateau under Gooden.
NIU Season Openers
NIU is 9-1 in season and home openers under Gooden. The Huskies won last year's opener at the NIU Invitational over IUPUI in four sets on Aug. 26, 2011.
Scouting North Dakota State
NDSU is coming off its fourth straight Summit League title and is the preseason favorite to win No. 5 in a row. The Bison went 26-9 (16-2 Summit) last season to reach the NCAA Tournament for the third time in four seasons. Three starters and the libero are back along with five newcomers as three starters were lost to graduation. NIU and NDSU have never faced each other prior to this season.
Scouting Wichita State
WSU is coming off a 21-11 (13-5 Missouri Valley Conference) season in 2011 as the Shockers made the NCAA Tournament for the fifth straight year and sixth time in the last eight years. WSU has four starters back and received three points in the AVCA Preseason Poll and was picked third in MVC Preseason Poll. NIU owns a 2-1 series advantage over the Shockers as the teams last met in 1996 - NIU won 3-0 in DeKalb on Sept. 6, 1996.
Scouting New Mexico State
NMSU is coming off a 23-10 (10-4 Western Athletic Conference) year in 2011 as the Aggies fell to Hawaii in the WAC championship match. With two starters back, NMSU was picked to win the WAC in the preseason coaches poll. Since 2003, the Aggies have reached the NCAA Tournament five times. NIU and NMSU have never faced each other prior to this season.

Healthy Candy Bars?
A few days ago Elliott Minor of The Associated Press reported that chocolate makers plan to roll out healthy candy bars. As we have discussed before, Mars Inc. plans to launch "CocaVia" a new product line made with a dark chocolate. The vitamin enriched, plant sterol injected snack food exploits dark chocolate's high in flavanol content. An antioxidant found in cocoa beans believed to thin the blood. Some medical professionals have mixed reactions:
Rachael Brandeis, a national spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association in Atlanta, said dark chocolate is a good source of flavanols, but so are other foods such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains.These processed and sweetened chocolate products are rich in hype and excess calories. Dr. Fuhrman's fruit and vegetable based diet style will provide you with many of aforementioned disease-preventing nutrients. If you absolutely can't live without a chocolate fix consider this message from Dr. Fuhrman in the discussion forum of DrFuhrman.com:
"Dark chocolate can fit into a healthy diet," she said. The fat in chocolate is a type that does not raise cholesterol levels, but it can add unwanted pounds if a person overindulges, she said.
You do not have to stay off chocolate, you can purchase raw cacao buds and make smoothies and sauces and healthy puddings with that chocolate flavor. All the beneficial compounds, antioxidants and flavonoids in the raw cacao make it a valuable food, even with minimal exposure to toxic components such as caffeine. I have no problem with you powdering some cacao in the VitaMix and making some chocolate style treats occasionally. Spinach, kale, banana, cacao powder, macadamia nuts and dates make a great, healthy chocolate pudding.A lot of people have wondered how you can tell which kind of cacao is recommended. Dr. Fuhrman and his staff have tested a lot of them, looking for excellent nutrition and flavor. The best they have foudn is now available in powdered form and is one of Dr. Fuhrman's newest products.

Sunday, the New England Revolution announced that the club added U.S. Men's National Team star Jermaine Jones, 32, to the roster as a designated player via a "blind draw." In that draw, MLS Commissioner Don Garber selected the name of the Revolution from an envelope, which contained the name of only one other interested club, the Chicago Fire, which had originally pursued Jones.
According to ESPN, Jones will earn more than $4.5 million in an 18-month deal.
Jones had expressed a preference to play for the Fire, who have a natural grass stadium and where he has ties. But in another one of Major League Soccer's heretofore unknown odd rules, as a designated player of a "certain threshold," Jones was not subject to allocation ranking for dispersal to an MLS team.
"The Chicago Fire Soccer Club has pursued Jermaine Jones as a free agent signing over the past month and a half, and have gone to great lengths to bring him into Major League Soccer and our organization," said Chicago Fire Head Coach and Director of Soccer Frank Yallop. "We thought that he'd be a great fit in Chicago. While we're deeply disappointed that he will not be a part of the Fire, we respect the system employed by MLS and wish Jermaine well with his new club."
Jones was one of the USMNT's outstanding performers at 2014 FIFA World Cup this summer. He was one of the USA's break-out stars in Brazil and played every minute of the USA's four matches in 2014 FIFA World Cup. Jones debuted with the U.S. National Team in October 2010 and has earned 46 caps and scored three goals.
Jones comes to play in the U.S. after a 14-year career in Europe. Born in Germany and raised in Chicago, Mississippi and Germany, Jones played most of his professional career in Germany with Eintracht Frankfurt, Bayer Leverkusen and FC Schalke 04, in addition to stints with England's Blackburn Rovers and, most recently, Turkey's Besiktas.
"I'm very excited to come to MLS and join the Revolution," Jones said. "New England is an exciting team on the rise, and I believe I can come in and help the team make a push toward MLS Cup."
Jones has been a key player in the USMNT's midfield under head coach Jurgen Klinsmann, although his career could have progressed with the German national team as he is a dual citizen. After playing in Under-21 games for Germany, Jones was originally identified by German head coach Joachim Löw and called in for European qualifiers against Cyprus and Wales in the fall of 2007, but injuries prevented Jones from joining up with the team. He later appeared in three friendlies in 2008 and 2009 before petitioning FIFA to switch his international eligibility and play for the United States. His petition was approved in October 2009.
The injury that kept him out of club play in 2009-10 also prevented him from playing with the USMNT for most of 2010, and he made his U.S. debut on October 9, 2010, in a friendly against Poland in Chicago and picked up an assist on Jozy Altidore's goal. Jones made 11 appearances in 2011, including six starts in the U.S.' run in the CONCACAF Gold Cup.
In 2013, Jones made a career-high 12 appearances for the United States, and started seven matches in the squad's final round of World Cup Qualifiers. This year, Jones has made seven appearances, including four starts at the World Cup. In addition to his goal against Portugal, Jones also recorded the assist on Clint Dempsey's goal against Ghana in the U.S.' opening match of the World Cup.
"We thought Jermaine was the best player for the U.S. in the World Cup and we are excited to welcome him to New England," said Revolution investor/operator Jonathan Kraft. "Robert and I have always said that any major DP signing would need to make an impact, on and off the field, and we believe the addition of Jermaine will do just that. When we learned that he was interested in signing with MLS, we immediately informed the league of our interest."
Jones will be added to the Revolution's' roster upon receipt of his International Transfer Certificate.

Disgraced and alienated from the academic community, Kennedy wants nothing to do with the event. But Summer Place has other plans....As Summer Place grows stronger, Kennedy along with the paranormal ghost hunting team, The Supernaturals, sets out to confront...and if possible, destroy...the evil presence dwelling there.But sometimes in a paranormal investigation, the ghosts hunt you.

"Black widows," this is what the media is dubbing the three women at large in Russia who are believed to be suicide bombers targeting the Russian Olympics. The up-and-coming Olympics in Russia are marred with the hunt for the three black widows, as the safety of the people coming from all over the world is in question today, according to "Fox and Friends" live on Tuesday morning, Jan. 21.
NBC News reports today that Russian officials believe these women are set to attack between Tuesday and Thursday in Rostov-on-Don. The Olympic torch is due to arrive on Rostov-on-Don on Wednesday during its journey to Sochi. Wanted posters sporting the pictures of the black widows are posted all over the city, which is suspected to be targeted by these women suicide bombers.
Russian officials put the posters up that ask for help in finding these three women; Zaira Alieva, 26, and Jhannet Tsakhaeva, 34, who are both from the restive Russian region of Dagestan. The third so-called black widow is Oksana Aslanova, 26, from Turkmenistan.
Officials have also pinpointed two men, who they believe plan to attack in southern Russia. These men are; Ruslan Saufutdinov, 21, and Murad Musaev, 25. Their images are also seen on wanted posters throughout the area that officials believe they will target.
NBC News terrorism analyst, Evan Kohlmann said that these posters "suggest gaping holes" in security right now in Sochi."
As the games draw near, the fear of attacks are growing, especially after a video surfaced with two men claiming responsibility for Russia's twin bombings last month in the city of Volgograd. These men posted their video online Sunday and in it they vowed that a "surprise" is planned for Olympic tourists as well as Putin.
The black widow terror suspects are dubbed black widow because their husbands are dead and they may be seeking to avenge the death of the men they married.

Reviews for Mom's Lemon Custard Pie
"Fantastic pie !! I have been making 2 every Friday night for the restaurant and they are sold out by 6:30pm. Thanks for sharing"
"Made this pie a few times, everybody loves it,nice change from plain custard."
"this is the absolute pie I have ever made!!! Made for a dinner party and all enjoyed. I am making it again today but only baking for50 miutes!!! Thank you"
"My mother used to make something like this, but she put it in custard cups. Will that work with this recipe? Will it have to be baked in a water bath if it's in custard cups? That would work better for me than a pie, but it sounds wonderful either way."
"I'm not a huge lemon person, but this was delicious! The curd bottom layer and spongy top layer appears to be how they recipe is intended to turn out, which I thought was fascinating. Food science! I followed the recipe exactly and though the top was quite brown after an hour in the oven, it lightened up in the fridge overnight. Still yummy! Will probably lessen the baking time next time just to achieve a more lemony appearance."

Based upon Honda's own parts manual information and the general worldwide base of knowledge concerning the mysterious 1959 CE71, the consensus has been that there were only 390 examples built before the whole project was scrapped in favor of the new-generation CB72/CB77 Super Hawks. Certainly, I have been a part of propagating the "390" stories in all of my writings to date.
Those few individuals I know who have restored or generally dabbled with these rare bikes have never seen a serial number beyond the legendary 390 mark, to the extent that it has never even been a point of discussion… until now!
Enthusiast Steve Taylor, a Sidney, Australia resident recently happened upon a ragged CE71 chassis located on a farm, many miles away from home. How he came to find it is probably a good story on its own, but the real story is that the frame number is CE71-10438 with engine number CE71E-10452!
The "body of knowledge" for these machines is sparse, of course. Supposedly, these bikes were built primarily for the US market, although this was the only bike built for America that didn't have an "A" in the serial number, which generally designated the models for US consumption. The bulk of them did come to the States and my friend, the late Dr. Fred Bell, owned the #2 machine, both when it was new and later in life when we rediscovered it out in PA and he bought it back for restoration. After his passing, the bike disappeared under mysterious circumstances, along with the bulk of his collection of cars and motorcycles. After investigations by law enforcement and private investigators, an airplane hangar was discovered to contain some of the cars and motorcycles inside, including the CE71. The bike was subsequently sold back to investors in Japan, where it resides today.
Just about the time I had finished Fred's bike, a second machine was offered to me from someone down in the Southeast, recovered from a barn that was being emptied and then torn down. Being "MrHonda" sometimes has its rewards and the owner recalled some brief conversation with me in years past, so contact me to see if I wanted to buy it before offering it out on eBay or the Cycle Trader. It was a rough one and most of it came together eventually. My friends in Japan made an offer, post eBay auction closing and it went off to him, along with a second CE71 which belonged to my friend Ray, up in Orange County. So, in a matter of about six months, I had my hands on three different CE71s, all with serial numbers well below the 390 threshold.
It would be hard for me to backtrack and correct all the writings I have produced stating that only 390 CE71s were produced, but at least in this venue. I can, however, begin the process now and be open to the truth that all of the "facts" that I have learned or observed over the years about Hondas (or other topics) just could well be another "myth," instead of a confirmed known piece of accurate information. From this new find, it appears that a separate batch of CE71s may have been shipped to Australia and elsewhere, beyond the 390 destined for the US market. More information is trickling in, so this story may continue to grow in the months to come.
I guess the phrase, "Nothing is certain except death and taxes" remains as true as it ever has. All the rest is subject to interpretation and revision as time goes on.

Verizon's Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 runs Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, and features a 10.1 inch PLS display with 1280 x 800 pixels, the well-known S Pen stylus, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, Adobe Photoshop Touch, 1.4GHz quad-core Exynos processor, 2GB of RAM, 5MP rear camera, 1.9MP front-facing camera, 16GB of internal memory, MicroSD card support, and a 7,000 mAh battery.
At the moment, you can buy several Samsung tablets from Verizon, including the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, Galaxy Tab 7.7, and even the original 7 inch Galaxy Tab.
Later this year, Samsung is expected to introduce several new Galaxy Note models, including a 6 inch one, a 7.7 inch one, and a 13 inch one.

PHILADELPHIA -- Food safety is just as much about communication as it is about protection, said a crisis-management expert who spoke at the Produce Marketing Association's Fresh Summit 2001. Nancy Glick, executive vice president of Ruder-Finn, Washington, and a veteran of many public-education campaigns, stressed the importance of food-safety communications at a time when consumers seem to believe they don't have major roles to play in solving the problem. "Americans are not paying enough ...

There are good reasons I don't live in London today: high living costs, road congestion, and the fact that it's tough to run into friends in such a large city. Low-level irritation with a city the size of London is understandable. But one common contention coming from other British cities is that London sucks talent and economic activity from the rest of the UK; and that other UK cities would be much better off if London wasn't there.
Today, urban policy research group Centre for Cities has published its "Cities Outlook 2014" report about the relationship between London and other UK cities; and knocks down some of the misconceptions about the "harm" London does. Cities across the UK benefit from these relationships and no city can go it alone. This is a worthwhile lesson for small cities worried they are losing out to a larger rival.
The report does not try to dispel the notion of our capital city's dominance. It is home to 19% of UK jobs, 21% of UK businesses, and 25% of UK economic output; but does this harm other cities? Here are three common arguments:
But things change as people hit their 30s and move away for a better quality of life, which is often linked with having children. In all age groups over the age of 30, more people move out of London than move into it.
Even so, 60% of those leaving London stay in the city's commuter belt, which shows how the city retains its attraction even to those escaping.
London-headquartered businesses account for a significant proportion of jobs in other British cities. For example, 22% of people working in the private sector in York are employed by London-headquartered businesses; and other cities would lose out if growth in London were somehow curtailed.
This ignores a couple of facts. The first is that the city depends on the talented young people trained in other parts of the country; and the second is that the people who work in London don't necessarily live there or use public services there. London can only do what it does with support from everywhere else.
It also relies on technological innovation happening in the rest of the country. Cambridge, Swindon, and Edinburgh are listed as the three UK cities with the most patents per 100,000 residents, and London comes only 23rd on this list.
The lesson here is that even a large city like London cannot succeed alone; and if a country is going to be successful then it needs cities to both compete and cooperate.
We can still demand changes. The government could give London more powers to raise taxes and increase investment in infrastructure, including homes, transport, and tech. It could also give big cities like Birmingham and Manchester more powers to help them economically, such as an elected mayor, power over transport budgets so they can make improvements, and more strategic planning powers.
Policies like those would help our smaller cities. They'll do much more than a vague notion of getting rid of London or pretending it doesn't exist.

Spice, Sex and Science: History Through the Eyes of a Chemist
Why are peppers spicy? Did you know that the male and female sex hormones are almost identical in their chemical structures? What do TNT and sunscreen have in common? To answer these questions, we will take a look at the molecules that make up the everyday world. These molecules have shaped history, started wars, and made some great meals. In this seminar, we will also come to a better understanding of how much chemistry influences us and how to think scientifically about these interesting questions. In an age where chemicals are often misunderstood (products labeled "chemical-free!"), we will learn what roles they play in our everyday lives. Students will learn the research skills necessary to tell the story of a molecule, tracing out its chemical nature and its impact on history, as well as general and basic organic chemistry concepts. No prior knowledge of chemistry is required.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Former Colorado School of Mines football players Kaleb Anderson, Marc Schiechl and Blaine Sumner worked out for professional scouts from the NFL's Buffalo Bills, Denver Broncos, New York Giants and Tennessee Titans on Monday afternoon, March 14th, during a Pro Day at the U.S. Air Force Academy.

A 6'3", 260-lb. defensive lineman from Lakewood, Colo. (Bear Creek High School), Schiechl finished as the runner-up for the 2010 Gene Upshaw NCAA Division II Lineman of the Year Award. Schiechl became the all-time NCAA Division II career leader in sacks (46.0) during the 2010 season and concluded his career at CSM ranked fourth in the NCAA Division II record book in career tackles for a loss (70.5). Schiechl, who selected as the Defensive Player of the Game at the 2011 Cactus Bowl (annual NCAA Division II all-star football game), also earned First Team Don Hansen All-Super Region Three honors in 2010. Schiechl also garnered AP Little All-America, Daktronics All-America, First Team D2football.com All-America, First Team Don Hansen All-America and AFCA All-America recognition this season to become the first three-time All-American (2008, 2009, 2010) in the history of the CSM football program. Selected as the Daktronics Super Region #3 Defensive Player of the Year and the Don Hansen National Defensive Player of the Year, Schiechl also earned Daktronics Super Region #3 First Team Defense recognition, collecting the most votes among defensive linemen. A First Team All-Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference pick (lone unanimous selection on defense) in 2010, Schiechl was also named RMAC Defensive Player of the Year for the second consecutive season. Furthermore, Schiechl garnered First Team National Football Foundation All-Colorado accolades and was selected as the NFFCC Defensive Player of the Year.
