To say that "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" was a success this weekend would be an understatement. The sequel to Marvel's "Captain America", which introduced the First Avenger, debuted with $96.2 million this weekend. That not only sets new April records, but it's also almost twice as high a gross as its predecessor's debut was—an impressive feat that likely owes a lot to 2012's "The Avengers", which Captain America appeared in alongside other popular Marvel heroes. It doesn't hurt that "The Winter Soldier" is getting rave reviews, with many citing it as the greatest Marvel movie yet.
Fortunately, no other movies had to go up against "Captain America" this weekend, as that was the only new wide release. Last weekend's number one movie, the Biblical epic "Noah", dropped to second with $17 million.
The complete list of the top 12 movies at the box office this weekend is below. Click the links to read my full review of each film.
1. "Captain America: The Winter Soldier": $96.2 million

Update, 5 a.m. EDT: After talks failed, the first in a series of five-day strikes by British Airways cabin crew begun this morning. It is expected to impact some flights in and out of London Heathrow.
(20 May, 2010) -- Fly-cruise passengers are set to face possible disruption once again after judges overturned a High Court injunction against British Airways' cabin crew union, Unite. This means that strikes can go ahead as planned from next week.
The first strike had been due to begin on Tuesday and end on May 22. Now, the three five-day strikes will take place on May 24, May 30 and June 5 unless an agreement can be reached between BA and the union.
So what flights will be disrupted?
All flights into and out of London Gatwick and London City airports will operate normally.
London Heathrow: For passengers travelling through until May 29, British Airways has published its planned flight schedules, so travellers should check the Web site.
BA has not listed flight details for the two final strike periods -- from May 30 to June 4 and June 5 to June 9. Flight schedules will be available on May 26.
A statement on BA's Web site says that the company is "very disappointed that Unite's appeal has been upheld, reintroducing the threat of strike action. Our key concern now is to keep as many of you flying as possible and we will be proceeding with our contingency plans." Unite's site, meanwhile, reads, "BA must now accept that negotiation not litigation is the only way to secure the settlement we all want."
Until the two come to an agreement, holidaymakers flying to their cruise ports will need to prepare for possible disruptions.
Stay tuned.

New Jigsaw desk member Scott is a 3D printing enthusiast. He brought in practically all the components of a Prusa printer, shown here laid out on his desk. Note in particular the extra-powerful NEMA 17 stepper motors, the Smoothie controller board, and the roll of <hushed tone>nylon 618</hushed tone>. (Oooooh.)
If none of that made any sense to you, come down and let Scott tell you all about it. He'll be assembling those pieces into a working 3D printer, letting anyone who's interested watch. He'll also be leading workshops in which people will build their own printers and controller boards. Exciting stuff! Stay tuned for details.

Rick Santorum Was Not Aware That He Borrowed His Campaign Slogan From Langston Hughes
Correction: Santorum's new slogan, "Fighting to Make America America Again," was borrowed from the title of a pro-union poem by gay poet Langston Hughes, "Let America Be America Again." That's like the least Santorum-y thing in the world, so obviously Santorum had no idea until ThinkProgress reporter Lee Fang informed him yesterday.
FANG: Today, you unveiled your new campaign slogan, "Fighting to make America America again." But was it intentional that this line was borrowed from the pro-union poem by the gay poet Langston Hughes?
SANTORUM: No, because I had nothing to do with that so-
FANG: Oh, alright thanks. Wait did you have a clarification there? Was it just a coincidence?
SANTORUM: I didn't know that. The folks who worked on that slogan for me didn't inform me that that's where it came from, if in fact it came from that.
FANG: Do you like Langston Hughes? Is he a favorite poet?
SANTORUM: I've read some of his poems. I'm not a big poetry guy so I can't say I have a favorite poet, sorry.
But more than just not knowing the origins of his campaign slogan, Santorum isn't sure whether he even has a campaign slogan to begin with.
When asked a short time later what the campaign slogan meant to him, Santorum said, "well, I'm not too sure that's my campaign slogan, I think it's on a web site."
It's definitely "on a website," and it looks a lot like a campaign slogan. Santorum has obviously been heavily involved in the campaign-slogan-making process so far.

I unofficially revealed February's Jewel of the Month over the weekend. I just couldn't resist posting this photo of the WTF ring set — worn by model Tina J for my lookbook shoot — as soon as I got it.
Here's a closer look at the rings.
These rings are sterling silver with adjustable bands so they can fit a range of finger sizes. They can also be custom-made in specific sizes with closed bands. The standard, adjustable set costs $345 for all three rings and I'm taking pre-orders on my website.
Speaking of model Tina J, I was excited to see her on the cover of WWD yesterday.
There were 14 more images inside. They were all very cute and "girl next door."
I was amused, seeing as I hired Tina specifically because I thought she was much more than "girl next door." It's good for Tina to show how versatile she is, of course. But I like her better styled my way (with the help of stylist Caitlin Burke).
Good girl gone bad!
10 Responses to "Jewel of the Month: WTF Rings (on a Good Girl Gone Bad)"
SO SO cool. I want these rings even more now.
Dang, I need to wear my swear rings more. I've been wearing one here and one there to work (software geeks appreciate @ signs and hashtags!). But I haven't worked up the nerve to wear the full set in my new workplace.
That's such a great picture – I love Tina's tough side!
I really love the rings (and don't forget you can use them as FTW: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ftw).
"Um, of course, I mean "free the whales," boss!" Hee! I might have to have these…
Hi my dear!! She models your fabulous rings perfectly, she has great attitude and style xx
Wow badass. I've been curious how did you come up with the typeface for your rings? Is there a story behind that?
You couldn't have picked a better model! That photo is so bad arse!
LOVE the shoot and the model!
She is so gorgeous!! I love the edgy her more too!
Kickass! Amazing how some styling and photography skillz can totally change the vibe of a person. Tina is gorgeous and has the most beautiful profile.
I love those rings.
And Tina was a beautiful choice for your lookbook.
It's nice to see her getting her face out there!

The Phoenix Coyotes are reportedly closing in on signing goalie Mike Smith to a six-year contract extension, according to TSN and NHL Network insider Darren Dreger. The contract is pending approval from the NHL, which maintains ownership of the Coyotes.
Smith, who would have become an unrestricted free agent July 5, reportedly will make approximately $5.67 million per season under his new deal.
Smith went 15-12-5 with a 2.58 goals-against average, .910 save percentage and five shutouts in 2012-13. He was 38-18-10 with a 2.21 GAA, .930 save percentage and eight shutouts in 2011-12, when he helped the Coyotes reach the Western Conference Final.

Umm hello? Perfectly Imperfect Sweetie Lace Nighty ($60) on line one! We found it girls! A comfy, cute and impossibly perfect nighty to wear that just kicks the butt out of our other sleepwear. The super slinky material makes us want to wear this under just about everything we own instead of actually having to wear those uncomfortable work clothes all day long. Who are we kidding, the weekends will be spent wearing this piece too!
I propose not to hold off until you earn big sum of money to buy all you need! You should just take the loan or just commercial loan and feel yourself comfortable

If there is any justice in the world for long-suffering Kansas City Chiefs fans, the same football gods that ripped their hearts out last week in the 45-44 playoff loss to the Indianapolis Colts will help get one of the greatest Chiefs of all time, guard Will Shields, into the 2014 Pro Football Hall of Fame induction class after the NFL announced Shields is one of the 15 finalists to be considered on Thursday.
Of course, the justice would be served if Shields makes it in over former Colts (and first-time nominees), wide receiver Marvin Harrison and head coach Tony Dungy. And yes … your Chiefs Examiner is fully aware of the fact that Dungy spent three wonderful years (89-91) as the defensive backs coach in Kansas City under head coach Marty Schottenheimer and defensive coordinator Bill Cowher, but the sting of the playoff loss to the Colts trumps any KC connection for this year.
This is Shields' third year to make the final 15, and along with Dungy and Harrison, he is joined by eight of last year's 10 finalists who did not make the cut: wide receivers Andre Reed and Tim Brown, running back Jerome Bettis, defensive ends Michael Strahan and Charles Haley, linebacker Kevin Greene and cornerback Aeneas Williams, along with owner Ed DeBartolo Jr.
Joining Dungy and Harrison as first-timers are linebacker Derrick Brooks and tackle Walter Jones. Kicker Morten Andersen (another former Chief!!) and safety John Lynch round out the final 15.
Voting takes place February 1 and no more than five of the 15 modern-day finalists can be elected into an enshrinement class. So who are the best bets to make the 2014 class?
If Brooks doesn't make the Hall, then they probably shouldn't have one. He helped changed the way the game was played as the lynchpin of Dungy's Tampa-2 defense. An 11-time Pro Bowler, Brooks is also a member of the All-Decade Team for the 2000s and is widely regarded as one of the greatest outside linebackers to ever play the game.
Strahan was a dominant personality for the dominant team in New York – and oh, by the way, was a dominant pass rusher for a championship team. He owns the single-season sack record of 22.5, despite the fact that many people feel it is jaded because of Brett Favre's "dive" in that season's last game that gave his buddy Strahan the record. Strahan is a virtual lock to go in this year after he was probably "punished" for that dive by not making the Hall last year in his first year of eligibility.
The fact that Strahan's face beams out on national TV every football Sunday on FOX's NFL show, plus daily on his popular morning talk show with Kelly Ripa, makes it a certainty he'll get in this year. Your Chiefs Examiner is hopeful because for three years he has owned an autographed football from the FOX show that has Strahan's signature along with current Hall-of-Famers Terry Bradshaw and Howie Long, who host the show with Strahan. Cha-ching!
Jerome Bettis could finally hear his name called for the Hall this year. One of the most popular players in the league when he played, the only people that hated "the Bus" were fans of his division foes (that hate EVERYTHING in Pittsburgh) and linebackers that had to tackle him every week. Bettis was the 1993 Offensive Player of the Year and 1996 Comeback Player of the Year. He topped 1,000 yards eight different times during his 13-year career, which spanned three seasons in St. Louis and 10 in Pittsburgh. Bettis also sits 10th on the career rushing TDs totem pole, with 91.
Tim Brown will probably make the Hall because now that Harrison is eligible there is a logjam at wide receiver with Andre Reed thrown in the mix as well. Statistically, there are few receivers better than Brown, but he has done himself no favors in the "wide receiver whining" department about not getting into the Hall earlier. HOF watchers marvel at how wide receivers almost single-handedly whine the most every year about getting disrespected by voters. The voters finally silenced Cris Carter by voting him in last year and this could be the year they shut Brown up.
And finally, the Chiefs fan in me says that Shields will make the Hall. Shields took over as the Chiefs' starting right guard in Week 2 of the 1993 and never left that spot until he retired after the 2006 season — a span of 223 consecutive starts. Shields was one of the most dominant interior linemen the NFL ever saw, as evidenced by 12 straight Pro Bowl appearances from 1995-06. Now that Larry Allen has his bust at the Hall, Shields should get his turn.
Besides, the football gods owe us one ….

LIBERAL - You'd expect your local utility company to take care of your electric needs and maybe provide natural gas. But how many companies would be willing to help out with real estate?
The city of Liberal has found a utility company willing to do just that in UtiliCorp, and the two are teaming up in a unique effort to find a new tenant for the abandoned Trailmobile plant.
UtiliCorp has seven divisions that provide electric and gas services in seven states, including Kansas Public Service, which provides utilities to the Liberal area.
Deanne Linn, director of economic development in Liberal, said the economic development efforts of UtiliCorp are pretty unique in the utility industry.
"They've been such a big help," Linn said. "They really are right there with you anytime you have a manufacturing idea. They'll go right to the (negotiating) table with you.
"We were very surprised. This (UtiliCorp) is a big business, and what does a big business usually do in a community of 20,000? Not much."
UtiliCorp maintains an economic development division that specializes in helping out in these types of situations.
Of course, UtiliCorp has an economic interest in getting tenant into the Trailmobile plant because manufacturing uses lots of electricity, but Linn said the company is going way beyond the call of duty on this effort.
The city and UtiliCorp teamed up to produce a postcard advertising the facility and have been sending the cards out all month in an effort to find a new tenant.
The Kansas Department of Commerce (KDOC), which helped train Trailmobile's workers, also has chipped in.
UtiliCorp allowed the city to use its list of over 2,000 contacts in manufacturing that may be interested in relocating to Liberal, while KDOC provided 1,000 names of its own.
The 200,000-square-foot building the organizations are looking to fill was formerly occupied by Trailmobile, which manufactured dry freight and refrigerated trailers. The city issued bonds for construction of the facility in 1998, spending just under $20 million on the building and equipment by the time production started, Linn said.
A downturn in the trailer industry put all that to a halt, however, and the company pulled out in January, cutting about 350 jobs and dealing a harsh blow to the economy of the town, Linn said.
The city, which owns the building, land and equipment, is looking for a new tenant. Linn said officials aren't too picky about what business moves in or what kind of deal has to be made as long as the laid-off employees can be put back to work.
"We are motivated, which means that we would be willing to sit down and do a deal," Linn said. "There are so many ways you can approach this: lease, purchase, straight rental. I think that we'd be willing to take any of those approaches."
Linn said she is hoping to find a metal manufacturing business that is looking to relocate a division and could utilize the nearly new equipment already in the facility. The Trailmobile building has a lot of advantages that should make it attractive to a business, she said.
The area boasts low utility prices, abundant water, and perhaps most importantly, an already trained work force. Lynn said the Trailmobile workers are mostly still living in Liberal, but if they aren't put to work soon, the city could lose that resource.
"The overriding priority is to get those jobs back in there," Linn said. "Our work force is trained, and we don't want them to scatter. The workers are still here, and they're underemployed, but if we don't find them good jobs soon, they'll move on."
The city has received several responses from the mailings, but most of those have been from brokers wanting to sell the property for the city. But Linn said she is confident that a manufacturer interested in the building will turn up soon.

Corduroy gets a bad rap. We'd like to give it a second chance with these Charter Club Slim It Up Straight-Leg Corduroys ($42). We're introducing the acai berry and intrepid blue shades to our already-established fall wardrobe in order to bring in some fresh fabrics. Change is always a good thing, especially when it fits as well as corduroy.
Those look like mom jeans.
Agreed! Mom's jeans!

Let's face it, 4th of July weekend is coming up around the corner and many Chicagoans are ready to enjoy a Barbeque! With heat rising and ozone levels at critical levels, it is improtant for the elderly and small children to avoid excessive heat. Not surprisingly, high on the list of people whom suffer more heat paralysis are those whom are considered obese.
While this may be true, small children and people over the age of 65 are more prone to heat exhaustion overall; however, because fat in a natural insulator which stores heat, those who carry excessive amount of extra core weight, tend to dehydrate and overheat faster than any other group of people.
With U.S. summers extending and becoming hotter than previous years as well as the rise in dust, mold, pollen and ragweed, it becomes increasingly hard for people to stay cool let alone hydrated in the summertime.
Between heat exhaustion, heat stroke and heat cramps, how can someone stay hydrated and healthy during a heat wave? Also, what should individuals do in situations where they are exposed to excessive heat for prolonged periods of time? Here are five key tips to stay cool during the 4th of July week/weekend:
1.) Always stay in a cool environment. If you have air-conditioning, it would be highly advisable to turn on the AC during the heat wave. Sure it may cost you an arm and a leg, but rather that, then your health or worst, your life. (If your home or apartment does not come equipped with AC, make sure to keep the house well ventilated and invest in a decent cooling fan.
2.) It is imperative that those considered elderly, obese or have young children, should focus on staying hydrated at all times and reduce the meals you intake. Try switching your friend chicken for a grilled chicken salad.
[Not everyone can afford to buy water bottles by the case every other day, so opt for BPA free water bottles and refill as needed.]
3.) Stay in shaded or covered areas if you have to be outside.
4.) Avoid doing outdoor or strenuous activities after 12 p.m. that is when the temperatures are at their highest, after all there's nothing cute about passing out from heat exhaustion.
5.) Make sure to keep it light! If you're going outside always make sure to wear lightweight and light clothing. Darker, heavier clothes attract heat and can affect the body's core temperature by spiking it to dangerous levels.

I am very excited to get to interview the author of The Elite. Jennifer Banash is truly talented and not to mention super busy. From working on In too Deep, the sequel to The Elite, having plans for another book called Bitten and being the co founder and co publisher of Impetus Press, an independent publishing house. It makes me wonder, how does she find time to smell her dogs paws…..well you'll get what I mean later on in the interview.
TP: How did you get the idea to write The Elite?
JB: The impetus to write THE ELITE was largely based on my own experiences going to a private school on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. I knew I wanted to write about that world, but that I also didn't want it to be just an escapist fantasy--I wanted to temper that glamorous lifestyle with real issues.
TP: Do you have a favorite character from The Elite? If so, who is it and why?
JB: My favorite character changes all the time! Usually it's Drew because I love walking around in a guy's head ad figuring out what makes them so, well, difficult, lol! But lately, because I'm so cranky and tired, it' Madison--there's something really liberating about writing in her voice, and just getting to be as bitchy as I want with no repercussions (well, at least not in MY life!).
TP: What character do you most relate to?
JB: Casey. I always feel like everything I do is either wrong, or that I could've done a better job. I'm definitely harder on myself than anyone else could ever be. I also relate to Casey the most because she can really laugh at herself, no matter how bad things get, and that's a quality I'm desperately trying to cultivate!
TP: In reading The Elite, I noticed that it has laugh out loud moments but makes a point of tackling serious issues, how hard was it to have a balance of both?
JB: It was really important to me. I think it's irresponsible to write a series with no real issues or problems for its characters. That's not the way life was for me when I was a teenager, and it's certainly not the way it is now for many teens growing up. I gave the characters real problems because it reflects the world that young adults grow up in today. It's funny, because my editor really tried to get them to take out the plot line about Sophie being a cutter, and I fought to keep it in. After all the appreciative emails I've gotten about that particular story line from readers, I'm very glad I did.
TP: How many books are planned for The Elite series and what can readers expect next in In Too Deep?
JB: There are three books scheduled so far. The next installment, IN TOO DEEP drops in January. The third book will be out sometime next June. All I can tell you about IN TOO DEEP is that it involves reality TV and a fabulous sweet sixteen bash! You wouldn't want me to ruin the surprise now, would you? I think not.
TP: What is the best part about being an author?
JB: The best part about being an author is fame and money, the circling photographers that stake out my house daily, getting the best tables in restaurants, not worrying about my cell phone bill . . .
Oh wait. That's Britney Spears . . .
The best part about being an author is getting to feel like I'm contributing something to the world--no matter how small.
TP: Who is your favorite author and what is it that strikes you about their work?
JB: My favorite author overall is Virginia Woolf. I love her sentences, how she wasn't afraid to take risks in her work, her tenacity. Reading her books is like stepping in to a beautiful dream. I could spend hours lost in the pages of her writing. In terms of YA, I love Melissa Walker, RA Nelson, Barry Lyga, Alexa Young, Anna Godberson, and I'm dying to read SISTERS OF MISERY by Megan Kelley Hall.
TP: What is something that people might be surprised to learn about you?
JB: Umm . . . I smell my dogs paws a lot? He usually smells like corn chips, but lately since we have been going to the beach so often, he smells kinda salty . . .
TP: What advice do you have for aspiring writers?
JB: Just keep writing-and don't let anyone's negativity discourage you. Actually, I"m still trying to take my own advice on that one . . .
I would just like to thank Jennifer for allowing me to interview her and for giving me a glimpse into her Elite world!

Awesome interview! :) I especially liked the dog-paw-sniffing part. Made me crack up. I'd really not want to smell MY dog's paws, considering they run around outside and probably step in each other's crap. But beach paws probably smell nice. :p
Anyway, I loved The Elite and it was great reading more about Jennifer!

RENO – The Desert Research Institute's cloud seeding program received a $100,000 funding recommendation Wednesday, from the Northern Nevada Water Planning Commission (NNWPC) to help sustain its Tahoe-Truckee Basin operations for the 2012-13 winter season.
This commitment augments $175,000 committed by the Truckee Meadows Water Authority for the same time period.
Michael J. DeMartini, the Domestic Well Owner Representative on the Northern Nevada Water Planning Commission, made a motion during the Wednesday meeting that an effort be made to secure long-term funding for DRI's cloud seeding program in the Tahoe-Truckee Basin.
DRI conducted 29 separate seeding events during the 2011-12 winter season and generated an estimated 21,600 acre-feet of snow water, which accounted for 147 percent of the 15-year average augmentation from cloud seeding. Considering that 2011-12 was one of the driest winters on record, this was an extremely valuable addition to the Tahoe-Truckee Basin watershed, said Arlen Huggins, Director of DRI's Weather Modification Program.
Earlier this year, DRI's cloud seeding program received a three-year $1.3 million commitment from the Southern Nevada Water Authority. DRI is also entering the third year of a five-year $1.6 million contract with the Bureau of Reclamation for cloud seeding in the Walker River Basin.

Some federal land must be offered to the ag department and government agencies before it is offered to patrons
SASKATOON — The Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association says the federal government should exempt the non-reversionary land in some of its pastures from the Treasury Board disposal process.
Non-reversionary land is land that the federal government owns but can't transfer to the province without first offering it to the federal agriculture department and other government agencies. Patrons are supposed to take control of the first five pastures that Ottawa is disposing of this spring.
A resolution presented at the SSGA semi-annual meeting in January said the non-reversionary land is critical to the viability of the pastures.
The province had offered to swap land with Ottawa to avoid the disposal process, but a deal fell through.
Mark Elford, who ranches near Wood Mountain and sat on a pasture transition committee set up by the provincial agriculture ministry, said the trade was a sensible idea.
Patrons want to lease the pastures in their entirety.
"It doesn't seem like the government of Canada is able to get out of this policy," he said.
It would be simpler and easier if it could exempt the pasture lands, he added.
Non-reversionary land is scattered throughout several of the pastures, including McCraney, which is to be turned over to patrons this spring and the only one of the first five that patrons haven't yet officially leased. The pasture's home quarter and yard site are on non-reversionary land, and the patrons are hesitant to proceed with a lease without assurance they will have access to it.
Other resolutions passed at the meeting included calls to lobby the provincial government to recognize that conservation easements de-crease the sale value of land, that a surface lease compensation review process for crown lease land be established and that Health Canada approve irradiation for trim and ground beef.
SSGA members also want funding increased for the predation program administered by Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corp. so that more control officers are available quicker to deal with coyotes and other predators.

With unstoppable Internet growth and penetration, more and more businesses realize how adopting web solutions is becoming very advantageous. Take the case of having virtual offices as an example. With the help of the Internet, doing efficient business while establishing a reputable name can now be more easily achieved.
However, it's important to be mindful of some critical points about virtual offices before deciding on having one. The following should be useful in choosing the right virtual office option.
1. There are many services that can come with a virtual office package. It is important to properly determine what is needed and what could be foregone.
Businesses that need a virtual office have to be acquainted with the different services available. These include virtual assistance, call center functions, remote receptionist service, voice mail, and a reputable virtual office address. Before picking a virtual office service provider, it is important to know the needs of a business to be sure that such are adequately and efficiently covered.
For example, a company that regularly takes customer calls and customer service concerns should choose a virtual office package that has an efficient call center or customer service system. On the other hand, a company that focuses on financial transactions should look for an expert in handling pecuniary matters. There are companies like Financial Guardian that offers virtual office services along with a host of other solutions such as the accounting, credit card processing, and offshore company formation.
2. Virtual office service providers also offer physical spaces. Proper location choice is hence also necessary.
Virtual office services are not just about outsourcing communication and office assistance services. Physical space services can also be availed. These physical spaces are particularly useful for companies that need to establish their presence in a certain area to better compete against other similar businesses. For instance, a software company can practically deliver all software services through the Internet but if it wants to earn the trust and secure contracts with government offices, it is an advantage having established a business address in the area where the target clients are located.
3. One of the main goals in getting a virtual office is to establish and maintain a sense of professionalism, to help create reputability.
Companies that seek to attract new customers or those that are new in the business can benefit from having virtual offices. This is to establish credibility in an area. A software development firm, for example, would be more appealing to prospective clients if it has a physical address in some respectable location. For many clients, a physical address acts like a proof that a certain company is legitimate and reliable.
4. There are different kinds of virtual office arrangements: lease or membership.
Virtual offices can be obtained through a lease agreement or through membership. Both options have their respective advantages and disadvantages. What's important is to be careful in reading the terms of the agreement. Memberships are great for those who need "plug and play" offices spaces but they may not provide a secure way of establishing a business address. With a lease agreement, a landlord-tenant relationship is created so there will be legal protection and more defined terms to expect.
5. Virtual offices don't necessarily mean the abandonment of a traditional office setup.
It is still possible, and in some cases even more practical, to have a virtual office and an actual physical office to suit different business operation needs. For companies that plan to expand to new markets, for example, having a virtual office in the new target market could be a good way of testing the waters before deciding to have a full-blown expansion or the construction of a building for a new branch.
6. Virtual offices should be able to support or protect confidential operations or transactions.
Businesses are unlikely to want to divulge everything about their operations. Law firms, for instance, need a space and a virtual office that supports and protects confidentiality. When choosing a virtual office, it is very important to ascertain policies on confidentiality and to check on the safeguards put in place to protect the interests of a business.
7. A virtual office can provide customers or clients some degree of reassurance.
For companies that offer financial and other high risk services, a virtual office (including a physical business address) can help reassure customers since it guarantees that customers have some specific address to visit if they have complaints.
8. Recruitment advantage can be expected but it is important to know how to do proper HR management.
Through online virtual offices, it is possible to hire the best talents from different parts of the world. Businesses can hire good writers or programmers from Asian countries, for example, and enjoy more choices of talents. However, this advantage cannot be properly tapped in the absence of good HR management. Employees who work from home and only connect through the virtual office need to be properly monitored and motivated in doing their jobs.
Some companies fail in running their virtual office systems because they hire the wrong people and fail to adequately empower their personnel or team members. There is a need for online employees or virtual officemates to have a sense of identity and belongingness. Without these, the benefits of a virtual office will be rendered useless.
9. Salaries can be adjusted according to the location of an employee in a virtual office setup.
There are possible savings in hiring employees for a virtual office. Companies may offer salaries based on the prevailing cost of living in a specific locality where the virtual office employee will be working. By hiring skilled people from sub-urban or even in rural areas, a company can lower salary expenses, reduce business operating costs, and maximize profits. Of course, it goes without saying that it's okay to be practical with cost reduction efforts but it's inadvisable to be stingy when it comes to paying web-based employees.
10. Virtual offices can mean lower office operating costs when properly implemented.
Business operation cost reduction is one of the main benefits of having a virtual office as it removes the need for monthly office rentals, costly utility expenses, office maintenance expenses, and other overhead costs. However, this cost reduction is not something that is automatically achieved. Effective management is also necessary. Before shifting to a virtual office setup, it is important to study the procedures and be acquainted with the best practices.
These points should be helpful for businesses to come up with a good decision in finding the right virtual office service or package to use. Likewise, these should offer useful insights or warnings on the possible pitfalls of switching to a virtual office system without the necessary preparations.

Curried Mango Chicken Thighs
Curried Mango Chicken Thighs
Normally, this curry would call for garam masala, a classic Indian spice mix. Since you may not have a stash of g.m. lying around, we've imitated it here with a blend of cumin, bay leaf, black pepper, cardamom, and—of all things—pumpkin pie spice. Standard p.p.s. contains cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and nutmeg—which makes it a "warm spice" cousin of the real thing. If you happen to have g.m., substitute ½ teaspoon for the cumin, p.p.s., and cardamom in the recipe. On the side, try Coconut Rice, Simple Snow Peas, Turnip "Fries," Roasted Root Vegetables, Broiled Summer Squash with Roasted Pepper Oil, or Roasted Spiced Cauliflower. Tips: Look for organic, pasture-raised, or antibiotic-free chicken. Always clean your cutting board and wash your hands thoroughly after handling raw poultry.

Cicerone Field at Anteater Ballpark (map it)
917 Mesa Rd
Irvine, CA 92612
Cicerone Field at Anteater Ballpark website
Year Opened: 2002
Capacity: 2,900
There are no tickets available at this time.
Official Review by Drew Cieszynski, Stadium Journey Regional Correspondent
In less than ten years, the University of California Irvine has come back from the dead, achieved a #1 national ranking, and played in the school�s first College World Series.
When you attend a UC Irvine game and experience the buzz of the crowd, it�s hard to believe that the baseball program was ceased in 1992 due to state budget cuts.
The program was resurrected in 2002 when Cicerone Field at Anteater Ballpark opened its doors. �The field itself was named for the school�s Chancellor from 1998 through 2005, a period that brought Irvine�s baseball team back to prominence.
The FANFARE scale is our metric device for rating each stadium experience. It covers the following:
Each area is rated from 0 to 5 stars with 5 being the best. The overall composite score is the "FANFARE Score".
As I walked through the entrance to the ballpark, I was a bit skeptical of the cuisine that would be on hand due to the size of the ballpark. My thoughts were quickly disproved as within just three stands an extensive offering was provided.
The main entrees include tacos (2 for $5), burrito ($6), quesadilla ($4 for cheese and $6 with meats), BBQ tri-tip sandwich ($7.50), hamburger/cheeseburger ($6.50), footlong hot dog ($6), boca burger ($6), chicken sandwich ($6.50), Philly cheesesteak ($6.50), Italian sausage ($6), chicken Caesar salad ($6), chicken fingers with fries ($6), or a bratwurst ($6).
Side options include Kettle corn (three sizes $3, $5, and $7), nachos ($3 with cheese only or $6 loaded), churro ($2), soft pretzel ($3), onion rings ($3.50), sweet potato fries ($4), french fries ($3.50), yogurt parfait ($5), fresh fruit cup ($5), and peanuts ($4).
Dessert options include funnel cake ($6 with powdered sugar only or $7 with apple cinnamon, strawberries, chocolate, or a caramel), and finally fried oreos or twinkies ($3).
While fans are not accustomed to alcohol being served on many campuses, Irvine is one that does allow it. The options include imported beer ($7), domestic beer ($6), and wine (red or white $6).
Other beverage options include 20 oz soda ($3.50), Gatorade ($3.50), coffee ($3), hot chocolate ($3), smoothies ($4), bottled water ($2.50).
While I was very pleased with the menu and could not ask more for a facility of this size, I did have a thought. With such a unique school nickname, I'd love to see some sort of snack or dessert with an ant theme to it to immerse the younger fans in the Anteater culture.
Between the chairback seating and the grassy berm, the ballpark was mostly full prior to the first pitch and the early spring buzz was in the air. The action started off with the PA announcer naming each player as he ran onto the field with a local youth player.
Unfortunately, I was rather disappointed with the sound system at the stadium. It was certainly aged and produced a muffled sound when the play by play announcer spoke throughout the game. It was otherwise okay when music was played between innings and the familiar "Law and Order" sound upon each member of the opposing team striking out.
Probably the best part of the game was the animated support that the UCI players gave one another. They seemed to be hanging on every pitch and at-bat and had a rather substantial reaction to every play. They were so loud in support of one another that the crowd seemed unnecessary.
Unfortunately, the mascot Peter the Anteater did not seem to be in attendance for this game.
Irvine is one of the cleanest and safest communities in Orange County, and not far away are the communities of Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, and Santa Ana which receive 35 million visitors annually.
One of the most visited outdoor malls in the nation, the Irvine Spectrum is nearby. Here, fans can find known establishments such as Edwards Theaters, Target, Yardhouse, California Pizza Kitchen, Dave & Busters, Wahoo's Fish Tacos, and Red Robin.
One of the places closer to campus is the Steelhead Brewing Company. Here you'll find some unique microbrews along with a menu featuring burgers, pizza, pasta, and wings. People seem to like their Root Beer above all else, which apparently took the establishment two years to develop.
The Anthill Pub and Grill is cleverly named for the college. The selection here is great with beer offering such as Dogfish Head and Arrogant Bastard. While they've got your typical pub food items, the claim to fame is the "Stoner Fries." These are part of a "secret menu" and are essentially asada fries with salsa, guacamole, and jalapenos.
Ray's Pizza is probably the best pizza joint in the area. Offering New York style pizza, this place offers a rather simple menu on eight sandwiches, lasagna, rigatoni. Hey, stick with what you're good at, huh?
Other popular local spots include Le Diplomate Caf�, Gen Grill, Golden Spoon, Britta's Caf�, and the Veggie Grill. Some of the more common chains such as In-N-Out Burger, Jack-In-The-Box, and KFC are also in the area.
Out of town visitors should be sure to check out the Orange County Great Park. This self-sustaining park's main attraction is the Great Park Balloon. This free ride takes fans 400 feet into the air in a tethered helium balloon, providing breathtaking views of the surrounding areas.
While the northern part of Orange County boasts teams such as the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Fullerton Flyers (formerly Orange County Flyers), and even the reputable program of CSU-Fullerton, the southern part relies on the Anteaters to provide their sporting excitement.
The fans certainly did not disappoint. While I thought the day of the week, the time of day, and weather would all work against the crowd on this day, the fans seem to fill out the ballpark rather nicely.
While there were some fans who were disengaged by watching from the parking garage, there were a few in particular who were making their presence felt behind home plate. One long haired gentleman wearing a black leather UC Irvine vest (see photos) would really get the fans around him going. After each player was announced, he would yell, "Ladies and Gentleman... (a blurb and the player's name)." This was followed by fans chanting the players name and clapping. This had to make the players feel extremely at home.
Another fan behind home plate had a clever Anteater hat (see photos) while others simply showed their support by clapping along to the bullhorn and organ recordings coming from the pressbox.
Another notable highlight from the fans included the "Rip 'Em Eaters" hand sign which included lifting the pointer and pinky finger and making a "snout" with the middle, ring, and thumb.
While fans may get hung up by the 5 or the 405, Irvine is usually rather simple to navigate and the area surrounding the campus is usually free of substantial traffic. The stadium is also easily accessible from the 73 (toll road) and 55.
The parking structure is found on Mesa Road and offers parking for 1,300 vehicles. Spots are $10.00 each per day or event. Unfortunately there are few alternatives in the nearby area, so most fans succumb to this fee.
With so many tourist destinations in the surrounding areas, plenty of hotels are nearby for anyone traveling to see the game. Even better, the John Wayne Airport (also known as Orange County Airport) is just three miles away, so you don't have to go far if you are flying in.
The restrooms are just inside the main entrance and seemed an appropriate size for the venue. Fans could hope for something more centrally located, but with such a small venue size, it is never a far walk.
Having visited all MLB stadiums and many minor league venues, I probably entered with a bit of a chip on my shoulder, but left feeling very whole with the value of the experience.
Seats in the main grandstand with chairbacks go for $12. While they were the most expensive, this would be my recommendation for adults. Quality chairback seating and (aside from the net) completely unobstructed views provide a great experience. General admission seating on the "anthill" down the first base line is $10 for adults and $5 for children. This is the better option for families with children. While I wasn't thrilled with the view from here, the children certainly loved the space to run around.
I felt the concession prices were very reasonable, but the parking seemed a bit inflated. Ultimately I am easily more on the positive side of the investment.
I start my extras off with the cleverly named "anthill," or grassy berm where fans sit for general admission. Sure, many smaller stadiums have berms for inexpensive seating, but how many cleverly incorporate the school nickname?
Orange County airport is nearby and 99% of the American public is annoyed by airports near their homes; Orange County residents are especially frustrated by the noise the planes flying overhead cause. Due to the noise abatement laws, fans at Anteater Ballpark can witness airplanes ascend nearly straight up upon takeoff from the runway.
While the game I attended was not on the clearest of days (and there are very few unclear days in Irvine), the stadium sits just above the beautiful Newport Beach Bay Back, an ecological preserve. Opposite the back bay, fans are treated to great views of the Santa Ana Mountains.
Beyond the third base dugout is the Newkirk Pavilion. Constructed in 2007, it has been a welcome addition to Anteater Ballpark with its player lounge, locker rooms, and training facility. There is also a suite known as the Anteater Room, which provides unmatched views to donors and group events.
In front of the nearby Bren Events Center, fans can get their photo taken with the giant anteater statue/shrine. While the anteater appears to be to scale, it is perched atop a three foot block that brings it up to torso level for most adults. The plaque below it tells of how the school received its nickname and why it make the "Zot Zot Zot" sound.
The 1,500 acre campus is covered with over 11,000 trees, making it rather green year round. I did take particular notice of the Euctalyptus tree beyond the right field fence, something fans will not find in many ballparks.
Just like the basketball program, the Anteaters baseball provides a value all fans can enjoy. The program's achievements in just over ten years should be applauded and local fans can certainly look forward to a prosperous future.

College Hockey:No Goal: UND, SCSU Finish With 2-2 Draw
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — One second remained in overtime when St. Cloud State defenseman Justin Fletcher submarined North Dakota forward Chris Porter, denying him a scoring chance on a breakaway. Referee Bill Mason's arm went up.
Fighting Sioux fans among the crowd of 11,600 in Ralph Engelstad Arena roared their demand for a penalty shot. On UND's bench, coach Dave Hakstol made the penalty shot signal. And Huskies goalie Bobby Goepfert wanted it, too.
"I was actually hoping for a penalty shot," the senior from King Park, N.Y. said. "I'm not a gambler, but I'm a risk-taker. I like to throw it all on the line.
"I said to everybody in the locker room, 'I bet you guys didn't want it, but I was itching.' I hadn't taken a penalty shot since juniors and I was pretty excited about it."
But there was no penalty shot, which meant a wild game filled with end-to-end action ended in a 2-2 tie. UND, which was swept by SCSU at home last season, had to settle for three of four points, despite outshooting the Huskies 42-28.
"It's tough to lose a point, but we also gained a point and we played very well doing it," said UND coach Dave Hakstol.
The Huskies put themselves in good position by doing what no team has done to UND all season: They scored two goals in the first period. UND had outscored opponents 10-1 in the opening period.
The Huskies got on the board first at 10:40 with a power play goal by freshman forward Ryan Lasch. Junior forward Dan Kronick fired a cross-ice pass nearly parallel to the goal line that went through the crease to the left side of the net where Lasch was camped out. He directed the puck into the open net to give SCSU a 1-0 lead. It was the Huskies first power play goal in 23 attempts.
The Sioux answered back at 13:51 with a goal by Grand Forks native Robbie Bina, his first of the season. With the teams playing four-on-four, freshman Chay Genoway feathered a pass through a defenseman's legs that found Bina crashing the net for a tip-in. At the time, Bina and Genoway were UND's defensive pair on the ice.
"It's something that shouldn't happen where both defense are up, but it worked out all right, I guess," Bina said. "It was a great play by Chay to get it over to me."
Hakstol shook his head and smiled when asked about the two defensemen leading the rush up ice and combining for a goal.
"We worked on that in practice," he deadpanned. "When you're having trouble scoring, you have to try new things, get creative."
SCSU responded less than a minute later when Lasch picked UND defenseman Brian Lee's pocket behind the net and threw a pass into the crease. Despite being tied up by Sioux forward Matt Watkins, Kronick got his stick on the puck and pounded it past Sioux freshman goalie Anthony Grieco to put the Huskies up 2-1 at 14:38.
SCSU coach Bob Motzko said he was proud of his team's effort, and especially Lasch, a native of Lake Forest, Calif., who had two goals and an assist in the series.
"We don't have a whole lot of go-to guys, but they have to learn how to fight through it in this league," he said. "He (Lasch) is doing it on his own. An atmosphere like this, he's not intimidated. He wants the puck every shift. He has a track record of that."
UND senior forward Chris Porter scored the game-winner Friday and the game-tying goal Saturday at 10:24 of the second period. With the Sioux on the power play, defenseman Taylor Chorney's shot from the point was blocked, but the puck bounced to Porter who roofed a shot over Goepfert's glove.
"It went off one of their defensemen in front," Porter said. "I just happened to be sitting back door and I tried to put it home as quick as I could."
Motzko said that after UND tied it up, the Huskies didn't hold back on going for the win.
"We're in North Dakota making plays," he said. "With a young team, you're going to make mistakes once in a while, and that's what cost us."
That set the stage for a wild third period with end-to-end action, brilliant saves by both goalies and outstanding defensive and offensive plays. The Sioux appeared to have the go-ahead goal with 7:46 left in the period. Forward T.J. Oshie's shot from the slot hit the crossbar and bounced out. In the ensuing scrum in front of the net, the puck ended up in the net.
"All of a sudden, I don't know what happened, but it went in. I didn't see how," Goepfert said.
The replay revealed that Sioux forward Jonathan Toews kicked the puck in with this skate, and the goal was disallowed.
The wild action carried into the overtime period with both Goepfert and Grieco making difficult saves. Despite having to kill a penalty, the Sioux outshot the Huskies 4-1 in overtime. Coming across the blue line, Oshie hit Porter with a pass that would have sent him in on Goepfert, but Fletcher's tripping penalty prevented him from getting a shot off.
"The best way to describe it was chaotic," said Goepfert, who was obviously still charged up after the game. "Everything was going a mile a minute.
"It's going to take me about two hours to get to sleep now with my adrenaline going," he laughed.
Watkins said that the play of Grieco, who's filling in for the injured Philippe Lamoureux, shouldn't be overlooked.
"He stepped in with zero experience and we're undefeated with him in the net right now, so that's a good thing," he said. "He played exceptionally well this weekend."
UND improves to 6-3-1 overall and 4-1-1 in the WCHA. SCSU, which has played all league games, is 2-3-1. UND is off next weekend, and then travels to Alaska Anchorage for a two- game series Nov. 17-18. SCSU has a home-and-home series with Minnesota Nov. 10-11. .

Rotisserie Approximate Cooking Time Chart
All rotisserie cooking on your grill requires Medium-Hot indirect heat, and a drip pan. A large enough pan will provide the indirect heat for you. Fill pan ½ way with whatever you are going to baste the meat with and be sure that the liquid never runs dry through the cooking process. A dry drip pan that fills with grease will quickly turn into a 3-alarm fire ruining a good meal.
Remember if unsure always use a meat thermometer and follow the USDA temperature guidelines.

Next in the 2013 Wyoming Roller Derby All Star Roster is Debbie Mercury, a skater who enjoys skating so much, she has filled many league rosters in her career. Most recently, Mercury was one of the skaters in Wyoming to make the first WFTDA Charter for the Cheyenne Capidolls. Currently off skates due to injury, Mercury still remains active in the derby world, announcing at bouts, while also continuing to organize the 2014 Wyoming Roller Derby Cup. This is Debbie Mercury's first year on the Wyoming Roller Derby All Star roster.
"She is an all around BAMF! Mad blocking skills, jams when she is needed, always there to support her team (on the track and off). This girl is unstoppable. She has only been skating a little more than a year (couldn't even stand up on skates before that) and made the cut for Wyoming's only WFTDA league when tryouts were opened up to all Wyoming players. This girl needs some recognition." ~ Charmaniac
"Mercury has worked with three teams in the state, and thanks to her dedication to roller derby, she made it onto the charter team for the Cheyenne Capidolls. She was sadly injured this summer, but the injury didn't stop her from participating in the sport in whatever capacity she can (in fact, she is a great announcer!). She has also put in tireless efforts to organize the first Wyoming Roller Derby Cup happening in 2014, and will be serving as the games director. The tournament wouldn't be happening without her, and I don't think we have a more dedicated skater than Mercury in Wyoming." ~ Shake 'n Break
"The very first words I ever spoke to Mercury were, 'Please tell me your name is a tribute to Freddie Mercury!' as a P.S. in an email. From that moment on, Mercury and I became fast friends. She is a lovely person, extremely dedicated to derby, and motivated to further the sport in the state. I was very happy to skate alongside Mercury as a Cheyenne Capidolls charter member, and while seeing Mercury is always a blessing, having skated against her as well - it's better when she wears your colors. The girl has a mighty fine.....hit! Much love for Mercury, one of the most deserving in the state of this nod." ~ Sadie Godiva

iPhone and iPod Touch aside, I've always considered manual brightness and auto brightness to be mutually exclusive settings. Intuitively, auto brightness means exactly that - the device figures it out. Why is the iOS auto brightness setting implemented relative to the manual brightness setting rather than absolute? In other words, why is manual brightness even an option when auto brightness is selected?
Why does iPhone and iPod touch auto-brightness setting work relative to a brightness you set rather than absolute?
Because a one-size-fits-all auto-brightness setting is going to be unpleasant for a large number of users, either because the automatically-selected levels are either too difficult to see, too bright, or eat too much battery. The automatic setting is based on the threshold you set specifically so that the device can "figure out" ideal settings within a range that you can tolerate.
More to the point, I have a question for you. Is there a point on the auto-brightness slider that you're comfortable with? If not, that should be all the proof you need that the slider is necessary! If there is a setting that looks ideal all the time, you've got nothing to complain about - the system works for you.
The reason why the brightness bar is still an option when auto brightness is on is two-fold. First, on the lock screen, when you are putting in your code or just checking time or whatever, the IPhone/IPod Touch uses the actual brightness bar setting for the brightness on lock screen. Auto-brightness only works after you unlock the device (by unlock, i mean the point in time where you can click on apps and such).
Also, the brightness bar sets a quasi-minimum limit, like, if you go into a darkened room like a movie theater, the auto-brightness will dim the light, up to the level that you have your brightness bar. Kind of like the volume limit for music, except this sets a minimum value instead of a maximum. There are situations where this doesn't apply, which is why i called it a quasi-minimum limit.
For example, if the place you are in is like, literally pitch black (or as close to it as you can achieve, then the difference between your set level and the level the auto-detector wants it to be, is considered extreme, and the auto-detector will override the set level, and put it on the lowest possible brightness.
Hope this helps, seeing as I derived all of this from personal experience with my own usage of the IPhone 3GS and IPhone 4.
Oh, just a note, i mentioned that while on lock screen, the device will use your brightness bar settings, yeah, that only works when it's NOT on the charger. placing the device on charge will automatically put the new lock screen (the one that shows a picture of a battery) on the highest brightness setting.

The Annual Barents Press International Conference in April Haparanda appeared unforgettable. According to many in attendance it was one of the best. We are very grateful to the hosts – Barents Press Sweden! What do the young participants think back about? Here're some viewpoints from different countries.
How can media not lose readers, listeners and viewers and not lose their social role in society? Is journalism to die or to become a new "business niche"? These issues were discussed by journalists from Norway, Finland, Sweden and Russia at the annual conference of the journalistic network Barents Press International in late April in the Swedish city of Haparanda.
Sami time – project of TV "Murman"
In November 2009 there was announced a competition within the Joint Programme «Minorities in Russia: developing languages, culture, media and civil society" with financial support of the Council of Europe. 314 applications were sent to the competition, and 282 were admitted including the one from the State TV and Radio Broadcasting Company "Murman".
In April 2010 the Selection Body of the Joint Programme approved a list of 24 organizations - grant receivers - for project realization in different regions of Russian Federation. State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company "Murman" was among the winners. It presented its project under the name "Sami time: preservation and protection of the traditional way of life of the indigenous people in Murmansk Region". The project started on the 1st of July, 2010, and it will last till the 1st of February, 2011.
Our work implies making and demonstrating TV series of video-films about livelihood of Sami people: about their history, cultural and business traditions, about Sami language preservation, about Sami position in the modern society, about vital problems and last achievements in development and preservation of Sami originality.
The main purpose of the project is to draw public attention on issues of cultural, social-economic and language development of the indigenous people of the Kola Peninsula, on the issue of protection and preservation of Sami traditional way of life.
All the series of the video-film "Sami time" will be recorded in DVD format in Russian and Sami languages. TV/Radio Company "Murman" will distribute the video-film among educational institutions, cultural-educational centres, museums, and archives both in Murmansk Region and in the countries of Barents Region, where Sami communities also live in Northern parts.

Life is too short to not recognize a random act of kindness when you see it.
Thank you badger.
Your comments are always welcome and valued !! So ok, Badger does the list , so he can do it anyway he wants to . I don`t want to do it , don`t know anyone else that wants to do it , I may not agree with his method , but I have to say oh well that is how he wants to do it ..
Subject dropped ...
Part of the responsibility of speaking your mind is recognizing the inevitability that there will be others who see things differently than you. And that's not a bad thing, it's a good thing. Diversity of perspective always adds value.
Since I'm not active in the vining community (and believe me, that's a community service in and of itself - I know myself too well) perhaps it's not my place to comment here, but if you'll allow an observation. The list that Badger maintains, and provides to the community for free, would seem to be a thing of considerable value despite any perceived shortcomings. And in my book, it's damn hard to reasonably complain about a free good.
Perhaps if you were to propose an implementation plan for a solution for the issues, it might be more constructive?
Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.
appreciate all badgers work , still just don`t know why all the vines are not on the list .
sorry if my observations offend whoever .. Do you all see why it`s not worth voicing your opinion aroung here . make a comment or ask a question and all i get is bullshit from people who are not even active members in the vineyard .( except richard, no probleme there) so whats up with that ? Is this not a free world are we not permited to say whats on our minds ? "speak your mind not someone elses"
well you can throw that one out the window . at least here .. Gee sorry I have my own mind and sorry I speak my mind ! wait no I`m not sorry ..
badger , it`s not required standards , it`s just doing it the way it was meant to be , remember you started this vinedex thing .
Nice to know people are grateful for all your hard work badge

Spanish Jam
The Vindex is generated from a computer list of all known shows, and undated shows tend to slip through the cracks, that's all there is to it. I thought it would be helpful to indicate that the undated shows were missing. I am truly sorry my efforts fail to meet Stuman's required standards. .
in having a vindex if ALL the vines are not listed ? The vines I did seed do have dates , not exact dates but there is dates and they do have names .
and yes Richard I am sleep deprived, it`s an issue of mine , the inability to sleep. I am only able to take like short cat naps , and so my sence of humor is a little warped .
peace out ...
Either Stuman has been a little sleep deprived to the point of paranoia or he has a wickedly sardonic sense of humor. I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and go with the sardonic sense of humor.
I have had several interactions with the cosmicbadger over the last 2 years and have never found him to be anything other than kind, gracious and generous.
Hey stu - let us in on the joke. OK?
Thats alot of vines!! Never knew there were so many.
Stuman, It takes a lot of time to do this and I am happy to admit that there are bound to be errors and omissions. But are you seriously suggesting I deliberately omitted vines you seeded from the Vindex? I have left out some shows from very early years when that do not have firm dates, as I mentioned when I posted the Vindex. Some of those shows were vined by Stuman (as I also acknowledged) and some by others (e.g some shows on the Acid Test Vine), I have not put much thought into how to deal with undated shows, rehearsal tapes etc but maybe next time I will get round to that.
If there are mistakes or omissions then please correct them, but please do not take anything personally or start insulting me.

Tomorrow (Thursday, October 22) the day-long Fairfield County / East Coast Greenway Bicycle & Pedestrian Summit will be held in Stamford, CT. This meeting will be a forum for all interested parties to have their say on topics including safe routes to schools, bicycle tourism, commuting, walkable communities, and more. We hope to end the day with (among other things) added energy and enthusiasm for the proposed Merritt Parkway Trail, and with the formation of a new county-wide bike & ped advisory group.
I think this is significant in two ways. The local effort in Fairfield County, obviously, will get a great boost. This will pay dividends in the years to come. Also significant is that this is just one of many such summits which the East Coast Greenway Alliance has conducted, or co-conducted, over the past several years. Summits in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire and Massachusetts have been important not only because they offered opportunities to solve problems faced by the ECGA, but also because they helped to galvanize support among those already in the fold, and succeeded in bringing new people in. For a project such as the East Coast Greenway, which has been active for years and will continue to be active for many years to come, this is critical. So keep your eyes on greenway.org; there may be a summit coming to your area soon!
On a completely different subject: the Connecticut State Cyclocross Championships are being held in Cheshire this November, and the event will be a fundraiser for the East Coast Greenway! Being involved with events like this one not only help financially, but are also a great avenue for spreading the word. As with any endeavor, for the ECG, marketing is crucial. So come on out to the races, and support the ECG!

Every year, Pantone chooses their Color of the Year, basing the choice on emerging trends and expert hunches. 2012 brought us Tangerine Tango. 2013 was a year-long pageant of Emerald.
For 2014, they have chosen Radiant Orchid and you will be seeing it quite often in the worlds of fashion and design. We first saw this color emerging at the Milan Furniture Fair and we've been in love with it ever since.
Radiant Orchid inhabits the middle ground between the passion of red and the calmness of blue. It effortlessly evokes a feeling of royalty and majesty, of something exquisite, yet attainable. It is aristocracy for the people.
This teen bedroom is a brilliant showcase for the vibrancy and surprising intimacy of Radiant Orchid. You can create a stunning space – be it a craft room or home office – by simply varying the value of the color from dark to light. The contrast of hues and textures will lead your eye around the room.
Think about how you will use this warm and expressive color in the coming year. It works equally well as the basis for an entire color palette or as the strategic splash of color that will pull an entire room together.
Learn more about the Color of the Year at Pantone.com.

Max Bemis is returning to the world of comic books in March with his new series, once again releasing via Boom! Studios!
The series, entitled Evil Empire is the tale of a modern society that transforms into, you guessed it, an evil empire. This transformative tale is told from the perspective of an underground rapper named Reese who witness the devolution of the world around him. Unfortunately, other than the small blurb on the product's page, little more is known about the title. However, if it's anything like Bemis's previous work, expectt tongue-in-cheek, and scathing social commentary that is one part satire and sever other parts reflectively introspective finger pointing.
Max Bemis is the leader singers and primary songwriter for the indie-pop group Say Anything. Bemis began his foray into literature with first comic min-seires, Polarity, which dealt with a bipolar artist stuck in a hipster world who realized that his disorder granted him unique powers. The critically acclaimed series presented Bemis as more than just a music writer. He has since written for Marvel Comics on their A+X series, and is currently working on another creator owned series for Boom!
The first issue of Evil Empire hits physical and digital stores beginning in March. Pre-orders for the entire collection of the series are available through Boom! Studios's web store. Those who purchase the series will do so on a subscription basis, receiving each issue on or before its date of release.

Praxis Skis are constructed by inspired skiers who take pride in producing the perfect ride for a variety of individual needs and styles. By designing skis that work for the individual, Praxis Skis aims to elevate the experience of skiing by reducing fatigue and increasing the amount of time you're on the hill.
Like many ski companies, this time of year Praxis Skis is starting to roll out new ski plans for 2015. This year Praxis Skis is adding more options to its already stacked lineup.
"With a record-setting year in Tahoe so far, the factory has been high and dry for longer then we care to talk about," Praxis Skis stated in a press release. "What did the ski engineers at Praxis do with this poorly dealt hand of weather? We took this pile of lemons and made sweet lemonade!"
Actually what they built are some cambered skis that carve ice and other firm snow conditions just in case the snow decides to hold out for the rest of this season.
"For us it was a chance to test skis in a new way. Get out, go fast, and carve."
This year, Praxis Skis has honed in on the versatile all-mountain carvers that you would not want to take out on a powder day. For a crew of off-piste powder seeking freeriders, this is a fun and interesting experience that brought skiers back to their early years of racing and chasing gates.
Praxis Skis has two new additions to our 2015 lineup.
These two skis find a common ground, having a slim waist of only 82 mm and an attitude ready to rip up the hard pack.
The new Park-N-Ride and the SND (Slice-N-Dice) is our answer to the perfect edge to edge hard snow carver. One for that speed freak that enjoys a stable ride.
The 2015 Praxis Park-N-Ride is the ski you will be carving all over the mountain. Bumps, Stumps and Jumps are the theme for this ski. A ski that bleeds fun and an effortless ride all over the mountain.
Limited number of new skis
A limited number of the 2015 Park N Rides are in stock and available now at a great introductory price. Praxis Skis is also offering a made-to-order sale on the new SND for this week only. Order this week and Praxis Skis will make a custom SND for the same low price as our current in stock models.
Praxis Skis in North Lake Tahoe travels to a different beat when designing skis. This is not about mass manufacturing, because Praxis handcrafts its colorful, decorative skis.

While we take the time to admire our beautiful environment in the heart of Belize, we work hard to practice agro-forestry.
Our sixteen varieties of bamboo are "clumping bamboo", meaning that they are non-invasive to the surrounding environment. Bamboo is used in a huge array of crafts here, and on the farm we even furnished our 'palapas' out of handcrafted bamboo. Importantly, bamboo provides additional habitats for wildlife and is 100% recyclable. Which is why Spanish Creek grows it as the primary crop, alongside our fruit 'milpas' and organic gardens.
We strongly rely on the expertise of our local, Belizean farm hands and the enthusiastic efforts of our volunteers from around the world. Spanish Creek would not be what it is had it not been for their hard work. Please come and

If you're anything like me, you've heard about the mysterious "Google Slap" and wondered what it's been really about. Has the Traffic Generation completely dried up for people like Jonathan Budd and the Internet Marketing Industry on Google? Or is there just a lot of hype and misinformation? And why would Google go and bite the hands that feed it?
I couldn't think of anyone more qualified to share the "behind the scene happenings" of what is REALLY going on with the "Google Slap" than Mr. Jonathan Budd himself.
Jonathan shares his own story of how 400-500+ leads per day dried up almost instantly over night, what he did at that point, what he's learned in the process, and what he recommends for the Internet Marketing community to do based on the results he's seeing now…
I don't want to delay this entertaining and insightful interview any longer. Sit back and enjoy!
When it's finished I'd really appreciate your take on our interview with your comment and you taking the time to share and retweet this post, too! Thanks!
To Your Success,
PS Don't miss this important link, as Jonathan Budd reveals in more detail exactly what he's stumbled upon with his 4-part series, "Get Traffic 3.0"… <—Click

I'm so sorry to hear that Beth. My dad passed away when I was sixteen after a long struggle with cancer. It's a difficult thing that touches many families and takes many way too young. We should celebrate the time they had with us, touching our lives in the time they had.

The Siskiyou County Sheriff's Office identified the man who was found dead near the Applegate Creek area in northern Siskiyou County.
34-year-old Michael Christopher MacCallum of Medford was found at the foot of a steep cliff. The investigation is being treated as a homicide.
Last Tuesday the Siskiyou County Search and Rescue Team was asked to assist Jackson County Sheriff's Office with a rescue mission for MacCallum, after his family reported him missing near the California and Oregon border just outside of Hilt.
When teams arrived, they found his body at the base of a cliff. Siskiyou County Sheriff Jon Lopey said,
"This investigation is being handled as a homicide but there is still a lot of investigative work being done by our detectives."
Detectives ask anyone with information to contact the Siskiyou County Sheriff's Office.
