Al Jefferson scored 30 points and grabbed 13 rebounds to lead the Charlotte Bobcats to a 91-75 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night.
Gerald Henderson had 17 points and eight rebounds and former Warrior Anthony Tolliver added 11 points for the Bobcats, who currently holds the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
Golden State (29-20) shot a season-low 31.2 percent in losing to Charlotte (22-28) for the second time this season. It was the Warriors' second-lowest scoring output of the season.
Stephen Curry led the anemic offense with 17 points and 11 assists. Andrew Bogut continues to be a beast on the boards with 15 rebounds, including seven on offense. Klay Thompson had 12 points. Jermaine O'Neal returned from a 25-game absence with nine points and eight rebounds.
The Warriors shot under 40 percent for the second straight game and the third time in four games.
"We have to find a way to get out of this," said Warriors coach Mark Jackson. "Right now we are taking the life out of the building and we are letting our offense affect our play. This is a make or miss league. Just disappointing."
Both teams shot 3 of 8 to start the game. While Charlotte heated up, Golden State stayed ice cold. The Bobcats made eight of their next 12 shots. The Warriors made three of their next 17. The end result was a 13-point lead for the visitors at the end of the first 12 minutes.
The Warriors cut the lead to seven early in the second quarter, but the Bobcats responded with a 14-4 run to built a 17-point advantage. It was a 12-point game at halftime.
Golden State cut the deficit to 54-46 early in the second half and gave their fans hope that a comeback might be forthcoming. However, the Bobcats answered the bell yet again. This time, it was an 18-8 run to extend to a 72-54 advantage with 46.7 seconds left in the third quarter.
Marreese Speights finally gave the fans at the sold-out Oracle Arena something to cheer about when he swished a shot from almost half-court to beat the buzzer.
The Warriors gained some much-needed momentum with the shot by Speights, but the Bobcats quickly extinguished any thoughts of an epic comeback when Tolliver hit back-to-back 3s. Kemba Walker, returning from a seven-game absence, made one and the Bobcats had a 21-point lead with 9:14 left, sending the shocked and frustrated crowd home early.
The 31.2 percent shooting was the worst performance for the Warriors since 2004.
"We missed shots," said Jackson. "We are missing shots. I would like to see us be more aggressive at times putting the ball on the floor and make plays because that is who we are as basketball team."
The Bobcats finished at 47.4 percent.
"We defended at a high enough level to win this game," said Jackson.
David Lee returned from a one-game absence and finished with eight points, ending his streak of 123 consecutive games scoring in double-digits.
"Nobody could really find it," said Lee. "I think some nights it's because we settle for tough three-pointers but we had 15 shots in the paint tonight that didn't go in that are normally easy for us. It wasn't our night offensively."
Golden State shot 31.4 percent in the paint and converted just 4 of 20 second-chance opportunities. The Warriors are 5-7 in their last 12 games, including 2-5 at home.
"I don't feel like we're pressing but we definitely have not played the way we are capable of at home," said Lee. "We talked about it at the start of the year. The mark of a really good team is they take care of home court."

Innovation Key to Success
What makes the tea business so successful in a country that has generally no strong traditional ties to the beverage save the region of East Frisia? "It's the increasing variability of available teas, an immense offer of specialties, and the wellness trend in combination with the consumers' growing health consciousness," explains Jochen Spethmann, c.e.o. of Ostfriesische Teegesellschaft (OTG) and at the same time head of the German Tea Association. His company is market leader, representing over 30% market share. Sales accounted for some $340 million in 2004 including production of private labels. OTG's own leading product range under the trademark "Messmer" is growing at twice the size of the total market, while the company's two other brands "Milford" and "Onno Behrends" did also very well. OTG is part of the Laurens Spethmann Holding with production sites in Austria, France, and the U.K. and operates a network of business links with agencies, importers, and distributors in more than 50 countries.
As health aspects play an ever more important part in modern consumers' choice of food, tea has been one of the profiteers of this trend. "A number of scientific studies have demonstrated that the consumption of black and green teas have beneficial effects on human health and general well-being", says Spethmann, adding that tea is virtually free of calories if consumed without any other ingredients. Thus, it is an ideal beverage for people caring for their slim line.
Black is Beautiful
Black teas in all variations are the number one choice of German tea lovers, accounting for a stable 81% market share and leaving the rest for green tea. However, green tea's popularity is on a steady rise. Compared to the previous year it had gained 1% in share. Though still small in volume, herbal and fruit teas are booming. Creative new products with unusual taste innovations and in unusual mixtures are rejuvenating the market. Herbal mixtures with exotic aromas are particularly successful.
Tea has become an ever more interesting subject within the HoReCa sector, not only because of an increasing demand by the guests but also of its excellent margin for the caterer. On top of the latest trend of tea drinking habits particularly among young people are so-called "mood teas" based on the Indian Ayurveda teachings and "country teas" representing the special tea taste of other cultures like the South American Lapacho or the Indian Chai.
Specialty Tea Shops Still Strong
German consumers in their majority prefer loose leaf teas. They make up for 60% of the total volume sold, while teabags account for 40%. In spite of the sometimes hefty public discussion about biological food and its supposed health benefits, organically grown tea could not increase its rather small market share of some 2% of total sales.
Food stores represent the most important sales channels, accounting for roughly 44%. They are followed by discounters and supermarkets, which make up for another 17.4%. Interestingly enough, specialty tea shops are held in high esteem by a certain segment of customers. 17.2% of the total volume is being sold through these traditional outlets. Obviously it is the professional knowledge and counseling of the shop owners or operators combined with the exclusive offer on sale which the true tea lovers seek. The gastronomy including caterers and other consumers at large account for 4.3% followed by mail orders with another 4%. This leaves 11.8% for various other but not specified outlets including small retailers.
India Stays Number One Supplier
In 2003 Germany imported 59,205 tons of tea, some 7,303 tons more than in the year before. India is traditionally the most important supplier. In 2003 it exported 7,618 tons or around 13% of the total volume. Indonesia and China shared second place with another 12.5% each, followed by Sri Lanka with 9.4% or 5,542 tons and Africa with another 3,756 tons or 6.3% Amongst the African tea suppliers Kenya has managed to maintain its 15% share of African deliveries over the past years.
25,419 tons of the German imports were re-exported after value-adding mostly to EU countries such as the Netherlands, France, Sweden, Austria, and even to the U.K., the famous motherland of the tea drinking habit. These were some 681 tons more than in the previous year. Some smaller volumes were exported to third countries, for example the U.S. Germany, thus, is an important hub for the international tea trade.
Worldwide Boom Beverage
Internationally there is a growing tea trend, too. Tea production increased by 40,681 tons to 3,096,707 tons. India was the most important tea grower. Its production accounted for 857,055 tons. However, it exported only 165,000 tons, while the rest was consumed domestically. The annual per capita consumption in India averages some 660 grams of tea as to 250 grams for example in Germany. In contrast, Sri Lanka, which produces considerably less tea than India, exported 291,891 tons or 96% of its production, making it the Number One exporter worldwide. Third place of tea exporting countries is held by Kenya with some 268,801 tons of exports or 92% of its production.
The coming tea year will be, according to Spethmann, another good one. "Tea held firm in 2003, when circumstances were difficult. Recent consumer surveys indicate that people stay attracted to tea because of the vast range of flavors and because they enjoy the pleasant effects of tea drinking. This makes tea an every day's drink just right for any occasion."
Another indicator of tea's attractiveness is the gradual appearance in Germany of stylish tea shops where all kinds of freshly brewed specialty teas are served. They can be compared with coffee shops. Experts believe that it is only a matter of time that people can buy "tea to go" as is the case with coffee in coffee shops.
As a hot beverage tea is naturally a favorite during the cold season. However, hot tea is also a good thirst quencher in summer. This is demonstrated by the tea drinking habits in such warm nations like Sri Lanka, India or Tunisia. "Even in summer time you can find hot tea refreshing, particularly when the temperatures are soaring", says Spethmann. He does know, because you will scarcely observe him without having a good cup of tea in hand, whether in winter or summer months.

NeNe Leakes has never hid her disappointment when it comes to the cast members of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. She might be nice or she might be brutal, but her response about the incident is raw and honest. Perhaps that's why fans tend to agree that Kenya Moore's continuation with the Housewives franchise should be reviewed before she is offered up another season. According to Reality Tea on Wednesday, NeNe Leakes is once again suggesting that Kenya Moore should leave the reality show.
NeNe Leakes is currently in Los Angeles dancing her heart out for Dancing With the Stars. Being that she is so close to the entertainment business, the paparazzi have been hounded her since the RHOA brawl was first reported last week. So far both Kenya Moore and Porsha Stewart haven't said anything about the issue between the two, but that hasn't stopped NeNe from picking sides and throwing shade.
"She shouldn't get kicked off. What they need to do is kick Kenya's fake booty off," said NeNe Leakes about the possibility of Porsha Stewart getting axed from the show.
Over the past season Kenya and NeNe have been less than cordial on show. Hoping to work out the differences, it appeared that the Bravo viewers got to see NeNe Leakes unwilling to hide the disappointment that she had for Kenya. Then there was Kenya Moore who graveled for NeNe's attention week after week.
Perhaps Kenya and Porsha will be fired and then NeNe Leakes won't need to worry about either of her cast members. The Bravo producers have yet to say who will be returning next season.

TC TO JOHN MURRAY; 19 September 1831; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18310919-TC-JMU-01; CL 5:441-442.
6 Woburn Buildings, Tavistock Square / 19th September 1831—
I am this moment favoured with your Note of the 17th; and beg to say in reply:
First, that your idea, derived from conversation with me of my giving you the preference to all other Publishers, was perfectly correct: I had heard you described as a man of honour, frankness and even generosity; and knew you to have the best and widest connexions; on which grounds I might well say, and can still well say, that a transaction with you would please me better than a similar one with any other member of the Trade.
Secondly, that your information, of my having submitted my Ms. to the greatest Publishers in London, if you mean thereby that after coming out of your hands it lay two days in those of Messrs. Longman & Rees, and was from them delivered over to the Lord Advocate,—is also perfectly correct: if you mean anything else, incorrect.
Thirdly, that if you mean the Bargain, which I had understood myself to have made with you, unmade, you have only to cause your Printer who is now working on my Ms., to return the same without damage or delay, and consider the business as finished.
I remain, / Sir, / Your obedt Servt /
Thomas Carlyle

We're always on the lookout here at FQHQ for new and innovative products that we think our readers will love. Well, more like items we love … and then we just assume you'll like it too. That's how it usually plays itself out. : )
While at Spring Quilt Market in Salt Lake City a few months back, we came across one such item. The Basic Grey booth was adorned with these beautiful art canvases in all different sizes featuring a variety of scroll work-like designs. These designs were beautifully embellished with scraps of fabric, antique buttons, and other pretty bits and notions.
At first I thought they were just booth decorations but, after introducing myself to the fabulous Basic Grey team, I learned that these canvas samplers are actually a new product. Offered in three different designs, each available in two sizes, the samplers will be available for sale later this year.
I thought it was really cool to see a product that would appeal to fabric lovers and scrap hoarders (you know who you are!) that's an alternative to your typical fabric and sewing notions. Plus, what better way to decorate your home and, more specifically, your sewing space than to feature some of your favorite fabric scraps and embellishments?
So, an idea was born. I contacted Whitney and Allison at Basic Grey and pitched a Fat Quarterly Designer's Challenge featuring their new samplers. I loved the thought of starting with a literal "blank canvas" and seeing how different crafters would choose to express themselves via fabric and other materials. They agreed, we recruited some FQ readers via our Twitter and Facebook pages, and the challenge was born!
We sent each designer one art canvas and an assortment of Basic Grey buttons with no direction other than to create something they love. Over the coming weeks we'll be featuring our design challenge participants and showcasing their personal canvas samplers. We were blown away by the creativity, technique, and vision that each designer exhibited in decorating their canvases, and we think you will be too. They certainly stepped up to the challenge!

Let's face it, marketers are everywhere and they are willing to do whatever it takes to get us to use their products. Many times this works like a charm, but people forget the facts that are presented right in front of their faces because they are so drawn to whatever advertisers are telling them through the various sources of mass media.
Let's take dog food for instance. When pet foods first came out they were made with disgusting by-products like horse meat. Well, many of the popular brands out there today, while not using horse meat, are still using cast-off pieces of animals that human beings would not think to eat (unless in a hotdog).
People continuously argue over whether or not to feed the dog table scraps. Well, the simple truth of the matter is no matter what, you may be feeding Fido scraps anyway – in the form of dog food!
Of course this does not mean that if we have a bowl of ice cream that we should serve the dog one, too. It also is not an indicative that we feed junk foods or fatty foods to our pets. None of those things are good for human beings either!
If only pet parents would take into consideration that pet foods have to be made of something, they would see that some of the things are the same as what human beings eat. We just eat a better cut of the meats and fresher veggies and fruits.
If we all took that into consideration, wouldn't we come up with the fact that we could be increasing Fido's longevity by feeding him or her 'good' table scraps and not the crap out of the bags? Several dog food manufacturers get the gist and are offering not only better cuts of meats, but fresher ingredients and vitamin sources overall.
While it may not be feasible for each and every pet parent to conjure up a fresh meal for Fido each morning and evening, they could be purchasing products like Freshpet. As states in its name, this product contains fresh foods and veggies that come in refrigeration packs that are ready to serve and will offer your dog a variety of ingredients that are good for them because they are all natural.
So, if you don't have time to research all of the foods and vitamins that a dog requires to be healthy and happy and to live a good, long life, you may want to consider Freshpet. Fresh foods are good for your dog. Try it and see!

Secrets of Success
2010 The year in review...
Sunday, December 26, 2010
Hmmmm...where to start....
Well most of you who were following my blogs, you will notice that I disappeared for quite some time.
I had a family crisis that turned into a blessing in disguise.
The first 1/2 of the year - I was so consumed with co-dependency that I could not concentrate on fixing myself - I was too consumed with fixing my alcoholic, drug addicted husband. I love him with everything I am - and I felt like he was killing himself and I had to do something about it - and when I say I was consumed with this - I mean my EVERY thought was worried & frazzled about what to do!!! I didn't realize at the time that this "worried, obsessive, frazzled feeling was an illness in and of itself...it's called codependency.
Somewhere around mid-July my husband and I both hit "rock bottom". I was ready to leave - and he was ready to get help. He admitted himself to detox - and I thought everything would be better - but I got worse! I obsessed about where he was - what was he doing? - was he drinking? - was he hanging around people who are drinking?....It was aweful. Someone suggested I go to an al-anon meeting...and I did.
I went to 2 actually. The 2nd one I shared my story. I guess fully expecting someone to tell me what to do about my husband. But one lady took me totally off guard when she told me that I was sicker than my husband - and that if I didn't "let go and let God" I would end up killing myself.
Outwardly I thanked her. But inwardly I was indignant and thought she had "no clue" what my husband was like. I didn't have the problem - HE DID.
Days passed and I could not get her words out of my head. Finally one night on a particularly bad day - I got on my knees and I prayed. I asked God to "help me" fix my life. I told him that I was sorry for anything I ever did wrong - and that I was going to try my best to change. I told him that I would do whatever he wanted - but he had to show me WHAT that was...
The next day - without me even mentioning my prayer to my husband, my husband suggested that he and I start attending church on Sunday's...
We did, our 2nd visit to church we met a man who GAVE US his Bible...and told us to read it. Was this God speaking to me through this man??? I thought so.
I started reading and my husband and I ended up getting baptized by submersion on 10/10/10.
We have been attending church regularly. I have been reading my Bible and even taking non-credit Biblical Bible courses to advance my knowledge in the Bible.
I was asked on Pastor appreciation day to give my testimony in front of the church congregation - which I was honored to do.
I am happy to say that I have turned all my worries over to the Lord my God and I for the first time in a long time have "peace" of mind...and it feels AMAZING.
My husband is clean & sober 5 months now...and I am so proud of him. Our marriage is stronger than ever and I feel like I have fallen in love with him all over again.
Christmas eve we went carolling with the church...it was SO MUCH FUN!!!
I think I am at a place in my life where I can finally now concentrate on "me".
I pray that all my Sparkfriends will come back and support me!
Love to you all!

Alfred Victor Verville Papers 1911-1968
Alfred Victor Verville (1890-1970), aviation pioneer and aircraft designer, was responsible for a number of important inventions in aircraft design, including welded-steel-frame fuselages and retractable landing gear. He began work with the Curtiss Aeroplane Co. in 1914 and, by the end of World War I had moved through a number of manufacturers, including Curtiss (1914), T-M Airplane Co (1915), General Airplane Co (1915-17), and Fisher Body Corp, Airplane Division (1917-18). In 1918 he became involved in military aviation at the United States Army Air Corp Engineering Division, McCook Field , OH (1918-25) and served as advisor to Colonel William Mitchell during his inspection trip to Europe (1922). In 1925 he co-founded the Buhl-Verville Aircraft Co (1925-27) before striking out on his own with the Verville Aircraft Co (1928-31). Through the 1930s and 1940s he acted in a number of capacities, including periods as a consultant (1932, 1939-41); at the Bureau of Air Commerce, United States Department of Commerce (1933-36); Douglas Aircraft (1937-38); Curtiss Wright Corp (1941-42), Snead Aircraft, Technical Division (1942); and Drexel Aviation Co (1942-45). In 1945 he served as a member of the Naval Technical Mission to Europe and later joined the Navy's Bureau of Aeronautics (1946-61). He retired in 1961, but continued to support aviation and aeronautics until his death.
This collection contains Verville's personal papers, and relates mainly to his various aeronautical concerns as well as his involvement with military aviation. The collection includes a large number of photos tracing the development of Curtiss aircraft and Naval Aviation, and especially documenting the design, construction, and flights of a replica of the Navy's first aircraft, the Curtiss A-1 Triad, built under Verville's direction by the Bureau of Aeronautics to commemorate the Fiftieth Anniversary of Naval Aviation in 1961. Also included are a large number of blueprints and photos of Verville-designed aircraft, especially those developed by the Verville Aircraft Co. in 1928-1931. Contents of this collection also include technical manuals, reference material, correspondence, financial information, event programs, newspapers and clippings, magazines, pamphlets, brochures, journals, books, and 8mm, 16mm, and 35mm film.

There's still a few days to get some lovely, loving holiday plans made for the coming weekend, and the Phoenix Valley--with so many options in and around Mesa--offers an artistic array for affections of every shape and size. We're talking love swept with the broadest of brushes here: your kids, your forever friend, your mom, your best buds or, of course, your sweetest of sweethearts, are all reasons to celebrate. So, take time to put show tickets into a balloon or a rose-scented envelope, and let the Valentine Day memories begin.
This slideshow list, like chocolates in a red satin Russell Stover box, chronicles nearly a dozen choices for the sweetest live entertainment in the Valley.
Chris Mann
Classically trained pop star Chris Mann will croon to swooners at the Mesa Arts Center on Friday night. His passionate music is one hot ticket these days. He's topped the Billboard charts along with charming a White House audience, and is in Mesa for a rescheduled concert on account of an October date didn't work.
Playing for Peace Chamber Music concert
Bridging the divide between cultures in conflict, the 'Playing for Peace' Chamber Music concert with Israeli pianist Sally Pinkas and Syrian clarinetist Kinan Azmeh at ASU Gammage on Saturday night offers soothingly superb musicianship that helps provide most important kinds of healing affection.
'Fiddler on the Roof' at Mesa Palms
The Palms Theatre in Mesa closes their Fiddler on the Roof production this weekend. From 'Matchmakers' to 'Do You Love Me's,' the classic musical about Tevye and his family of eligible daughters is a celebration of love that struggles and strives to survive as times and cultures evolve.
Walter Cosand plays Schumann with Symphony of the Southwest
Romance of the classical music variety takes the stage at Mesa Arts Center on Saturday night. Schumann's 'Concerto in A minor,' haled as one of the greatest romantic concertos ever written, will be performed by internationally acclaimed pianist Walter Cosand and the Symphony of the Southwest.
'Oklahoma!' and 'Dames at Sea'
'People Will Say We're in Love,' and 'I Caaaayn't Saaay No!' -- complete with roses and a dessert bar -- are all part of the love tales at Hale Centre Theatre's Friday night production of Oklahoma! that opens this weekend. If waiting to celebrate until Monday or Tuesday night better fits your schedule, Hale's production of Dames at Sea provides the merriest of improbable loves and tap-dancing galore.
Top Gun: Live, Abridged, and Completely Underfunded
With silly Henson-like puppets, Mesa Encore Theatre and the 'All Puppet Players' have a delightful and innovative spoof at their new Black Box (on Brown) theatre entitled Top Gun: Live, Abridged, and Completely Underfunded. They bill it as "not just homage to the Tom Cruise flick, but to all iconic movies of the 80's" like The Karate Kid, ET, Goonies, and The Princess Bride.
Clannad at MiM
The ethereal and haunting vocals of Clannad are well worth a short drive to the northern end of the Valley. The group's Friday show sold out weeks ago. They opened a Saturday night performance at the cozy Musical Instrument Museum last week.

If you answered yes to any of the above you likely have a breath problem. The good news is that at the Center for Breath
Treatment we have a highly effective treatment that has had a 99% success rate.
When we treat a patient at the CBT we look at each person as an individual with his or her own unique problems. We also recognize the effects that a chronic halitosis condition
can have on a person's character or personality. Every
patient who receives treatment at our center must complete an in depth medical and dental history for the doctor, and a detailed questionnaire about their breath problem. After completing
an in-depth interview with our patients we proceed with the following: an examination, x-rays, an analysis of the patient's breath and sinus gasses followed by a thorough interview with each
new patient. We then formulate a diagnosis of that person's problem, discuss all the pertinent issues with that patient, and develop a specialized treatment program. Below are some other topics
associated with the treatment of halitosis.
What Can I Do For My Breath Problem if I Live Out of the San Francisco Bay Area
At the CBT we get many calls from around the world inquiring about our services. Many people make the trip to San Francisco and complete our full treatment program. This is the best way to treat a halitosis condition because you will receive a thorough diagnosis of your condition and be able to fully understand the causes of your condition and also see the before and after results because they can be quantitatively measured in our office. For those that wish to make the trip we can assist in finding lodging and transportation to our clinic. It is quite easy and we are ideally situated near many tourist attractions. Those patients that travel long distances to see us will receive treatment over a two day back-to-back set of appointments. This accelerated treatment has been used successfully in our clinic since 1996, and usually require one to two nights lodging. Once an appointment is set up we will send you directions to our office and a list of accommodations nearby. We even have arranged a discount at a local motel for our patients. There are some however, that either find the cost of travel, lodging, and the treatment itself too expensive, or they can't get the time to see us. These same people have expressed to us their frustration at not being able to treat their problem while knowing that there is a treatment readily available at our center. For those people who find themselves in this same predicament, we have an alternative program for them that does not require their actual presence in our office. The results that we have achieved have been excellent and have shown the treatment to have a predictable outcome of success. This is available through a combination of items found in our web store. Because halitosis always has a combination of causes we typically recommend a combination of items when using the home treatment program.
Please call CBT toll free at 1-888-FRESH-03 (1-888-373-7403) for an appointment or for more details about our unique alternative
treatment program. Our breath treatment and other important items can also be purchased through our Online Store.
At the center we take a methodical and scientific approach to treating breath
problems. Using a microbiological, a dental, and medical approach to each
person's problem helps us to obtain outstanding results. The cost of treatment
is $570.00. This includes all appointments necessary to eliminate a halitosis
condition, and any medicated products we might recommend. Most patients require
two to three appointments to successfully eliminate their halitosis condition:
1st Visit
On your first visit, which takes approximately an hour, the doctor will perform a comprehensive dental and medical history followed by an extensive interview. A thorough
oral examination and some dental x-rays will also be performed at this appointment. With the assistance of two state-of-the-art instruments called a HalimeterT and a PeriotempT, we will determine
the source of the halitosis and the degree of its severity. The
HalimeterT measures the volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), which are most often responsible for the malodors of bad breath. They are produced by a specific type of gram (-) anaerobic bacteria
that is often found proliferating in the mouths or sinuses of halitosis sufferers. Dr. Dailley will complete his diagnosis and place you on a program specifically designed for you to eliminate
the proliferation of this bacteria and your halitosis condition. This treatment generally consists of the elimination of any chronic oral infections, instructing you on specific home-care
techniques, and providing you with the appropriate pharmaceutical products to assist you in the elimination of VSCs. It is important to understand that the treatment is not the same for every
patient. If Dr. Dailley finds that there are any dental or medical conditions that are components of your breath problem, he will address these immediately with you. Also, if xerostomia (dry
mouth) is present, Dr. Dailley will place you on a program to try and correct that problem.
Follow-up Appointments
At these visits we will closely monitor your progress by re-evaluating you with the HalimeterT and the PeriotempT devices. Further instructions, and/or demonstrations of
prescribed techniques and the possible use of additional oral aids and pharmaceutical products, will be further implemented at this time. Once your halitosis condition has been eliminated,
we will instruct you, (via a specific home-care program), on how to prevent any further reoccurrence. Careful adherence to our home-care program will be important in your efforts at remaining
free of halitosis. Most patients successfully complete their treatment by the end of their third appointment.
Aside from the traditional instruments used during a dental examination, the CBT uses two state-of-the-art devices that help to diagnose a halitosis condition. They are the HalimeterT and the PeriotempT instruments. The HalimeterT is used to measure the volatile sulfur compounds (VSC) emanating from a patient's breath or nasal passages. It is an
extremely sensitive device that measure VSCs in parts per billion (ppb). This device helps the doctor determine what the source of a breath problem is and the severity of that problem. This
is an invaluable device in the treatment of halitosis and is also much more objective and sensitive than a human nose. The PeriotempT device determines the exact areas in the gum tissue where
VSCs might be produced. It also informs the doctor about the health of a patient's gums. The instrument automatically records this information and prints it for the doctor as the doctor is
performing his examination. This information is important because many of the same bacteria that cause gum disease are the same bacteria that produce VSCs in patients with breath conditions.
A third device, the Hydro Floss unit, is commonly recommended to our patients. This high-tech device combines magnetohydrodynamincs with the properties of an oral irrigator. The Hydro Floss
actually polarizes whatever solutions are placed within the machine. We have a combination of water and our halitosis treatment rinse that we recommend for this. The purpose of the Hydro Floss
is to inhibit the attachment of plaque and the halitosis causing bacteria in the mouth. Clinical studies have actually shown a 44% greater reduction in plaque and calculus (tarter) as compared
to a regular oral irrigator! Journal of Clinical Periodontology, May 1993. We strongly recommend the Hydro Floss device for anybody with acute or chronic periodontal (gum) disease, or anybody
suffering from gingivitis. We have seen dramatic changes in the health of patients' gum tissue and also in the halitosis levels when used properly in our recommended program. Many patients
have also found the Hydro Floss machine to be beneficial in helping them rid themselves of some of the bad tastes often associated with halitosis, and it enables them to decrease their use
of the medicated products.
One device we often recommend to patients is a tongue cleaner. Frequently we see bacteria being deposited in the posterior of the tongue.
Normal brushing is not effective at removing this bacteria, so we often recommend a specific types of tongue cleaner which is very effective at removing the bacteria from the tongue. After treating thousands of patients, we have narrowed the field down to two devices that we use and dispense at our Center.
Remember not all tongues have the same anatomy! What is important is to use the proper tongue cleaner in a correct manor.
The particular device we use has been shown to be the most effective tongue cleaner available. We frequently see patients who have been using both a tongue cleaner and a chlorine dioxide based oral
rinse without much success because nobody has ever implemented a proper program for them, or the products they are using are not very effective. This is often because of the short duration of effectiveness of the chlorine dioxide oral rinses.
We utilize a number of different medications and products in our clinic to treat halitosis and even use prescription grade medications when necessary.
The indications for the use of the different medications and devices are based upon what we see during the diagnostic appointment.
Sometimes we also recommend different types of devices that will effect the oral cavity, and or the sinus regions where halitosis may be coming from.

getting upload date from hackage-db?
Patrick Pelletier <code <at> funwithsoftware.org>
(Firstly, I apologize if this is not the right mailing list for this question. But haskell-cafe seems to be the place to go when in doubt.) I'm using the hackage-db package (Distribution.Hackage.DB) to analyze Hackage programatically. It parses 00-index.tar and provides a mapping from package name and version to a GenericPackageDescription. I've figured out how to get most of the information I want from the GenericPackageDescription. But one piece of information that's present on the Hackage web pages that I'd like to be able to get is "Upload date", but I can't find this information anywhere in the GenericPackageDescription. Am I missing it? It looks like the modification dates of the cabal files inside 00- index.tar correspond to the upload date. Is this correct? If so, I could parse this out of 00-index.tar myself (using the "tar" package). Is that the best way to do what I'm trying to accomplish, or is there a better, less "reinventing the wheel" way that I'm missing? Thanks, --Patrick

'Final Fantasy VIII' was a progression of the combined science fiction & fantasy world started in 'VI' and built upon in 'VII.' With a sweeping story that goes beyond space and time, 'Final Fantasy VIII' is in many ways a classic example of game directing done well. With an artistic flare and an aspiration to deliver an epic experience, 'VIII' holds a special place in the hearts and minds of many gamers. Here are five moments that really made the experience sing.
The Landing on Dollet
In one of the first important moments in the game, the mission to liberate the town of Dollet from the Galbadian troops is an excellent example of what 'Final Fantasy' does well: Epic music combined with a beautiful visual experience.
There was more to the cinematic than just pretty graphics; the boats moving across the serene reflection of the moon in the water, Squall looking out at the approaching shoreline all created an intense directorial experience that was heightened by the arrival of the boats on the shore and the virtually seamless transition back to gameplay.
'Final Fantasy VIII's' story is, from the beginning at least, straightforward in many ways: The characters are members of a private mercenary force and take on a variety of different jobs for different clients. While there seems to be some action stirring between the nations of the world, there's little else from the beginning aside from character relationships.
The first hint that not everything is as simple is in the first flashback/dream sequence where the players are introduced to the other protagonist: Laguna. Not only does it deepen the world by giving grounds for the game to have thick historical content, but also it is another excellent example of the great directing in the game's advancement.
With accelerating music, no hint as to what's going on aside from the apparent fact that these mysterious characters are on some kind of military operation, the plot and setting expands beyond that of Squall and the other characters, giving hint that there's a greater story to tell.
The Train Job
'Final Fantasy VII' raised the bar on what could be done in an RPG by adding moments one would expect to see in an action/adventure game; whether it was parachuting into a city, or a high-speed motorcycle chase, Square effectively brought excitement and action to the genre, and would continue to do so with 'Final Fantasy VIII.'
Hired by a small group of resistance members, Squall and the crew were assigned the task of swapping out a train car that contained the president of Galbadia with a dummy car.
Placing the player on the moving train itself by fusing gameplay with FMV-style graphics was an exhilarating moment, as was having to input the codes to decouple the trains without getting spotted in order to successfully complete the mission.
The Attempted Assassination of Sorceress Edea
One of the highest moments in 'Final Fantasy VIII,' the mission to assassinate the Sorceress in Deling city is filled with intensity and risk from start to finish.
Once again, the high directorial work and presentation through visuals and music stands out as something ambitious and confident. But there's more at work that keeps the tension going.
Anything that could possibly go wrong to jeopardize the mission does. Irvine doubts his abilities as a marksman right before the critical moment; Quistis and the second team get stuck in the sewers; Rinoa decides to take matters into her own hands only to become possessed by the power of the Sorceress.
With everything falling into place at the last minute, the shot still fails, leaving Squall to race through the parade crowd to face the Sorceress head on, where he has to fight through Seifer, who has now oddly aligned himself with the enemy.
Even though the segment directly after Squall is impaled by Sorceress Edea's summoned ice shards doesn't contain anything epic necessarily, the shift in tone and mood is yet another example of the excellent progression of the game.
Coming down from the high point of facing off against the Sorceress, with the fate of Squall and everyone else left uncertain, the quaint and gentle music introducing the proceeding scene with Laguna makes for a beautiful and poignant transition.

What does the Central Hockey League (CHL) have to say about last season's failure of the New Mexico Scorpions and the return of pro hockey to New Mexico? Plenty, as it turns out.
The Albuquerque Hockey Examiner had a chance to talk with Duane Lewis, CHL Commissioner about the New Mexico Scorpions, the team's dark season and the return of pro hockey to New Mexico. Lewis, a native of Georgetown, Ontario, was named the league's commissioner in June of 2008. Prior to being named CHL Commissioner, Lewis worked with both the National Hockey League and the Western Professional Hockey League.
The head of the CHL might know more about the demographics and climate in New Mexico than one would expect. Lewis was a member of the 1996-1997 New Mexico Scorpions team in the now defunct Western Professional Hockey League. He was in Albuquerque a short time before being traded to the Amarillo Rattlers.
Fans in the Central Hockey League have long questioned the league's willingness to provide ongoing support to the franchises within the league particularly after learning that the CHL's parent company, Global Entertainment Corporation (GEC), is in the business of building arenas. Hockey fans are quick to point out that arenas keep going up, but that several teams in the Central Hockey League have closed up shop in the last decade. So, how does the league address accusations that the CHL and the GEC are more interested in the revenue that comes from building arenas than they are in the work that goes on to support existing teams in the league?
Lewis is quick to point out that GEC builds arenas only in markets that are interested in having arenas, and, that not all arenas are built specifically for CHL hockey (Wenatchee, WA and Dodge City, KS). The CHL only puts hockey teams in markets that "make sense geographically." Extensive market studies, Lewis continues, are then done to determine a team's success in the market. Lewis notes that the CHL is mindful not only of CHL success but of the success that might come in the form of future teams, such as a Junior team.
With all of the market research, fans may wonder why the league moved the Scorpions out of Tingley Colliseum in Albuquerque to the Santa Ana Star Center in the smaller city of Rio Rancho. When asked about the location of the Santa Ana Star Events Center, home of the now dark New Mexico Scorpions, Lewis admits that "the CHL thought the city would be more built up than it is now." He continues that fans might be more inclined to access the new arena if it "were on a highway and you didn't have to drive through neighborhoods to get there."
The location of the arena aside, Lewis believes that strategic and successful marketing is essential to make a team profitable in any market. "Marketing is a huge part of how well a team does," he says. The focus for any CHL team, Lewis continues, should be "community involvement. Having a sports franchise in your community is a quality of life issue." Part of the league's appeal is having the athletes out in the community where fans and potential fans can interact with them on an individual basis. "The (team's) office is responsible for laying that out," says Lewis. "How visible were the guys and the team in the community?"
Lewis points out that owners, often from Canada and the northern United States, need to realize that they can't just rely on the game to sell tickets in United States markets where the game isn't an integral part of the culture. The CHL focuses on marketing and selling entertainment in addition to the game of hockey. Lewis states that teams "need to create the urgency to get tickets." Some teams in the league, he notes, such as the Colorado Eagles and the Rapid City Rush have done this well. Fans feel an urgency to buy tickets because waiting until the last minute may mean that you don't get a seat for the game.
Clearly the league has a vested interest in seeing their teams succeed, but what type of assistance is offered by the CHL to teams in the league - particularly to teams that are struggling? Lewis was able to outline the many trainings, opportunities and tools offered by the league to all of its franchises. "The CHL," he says, "doesn't have a favorite team" and the league gives "every (team) owner every chance for success." The league offers substantial tools and help to all league franchises including help with licenses and licensing agreements, executive training, team visits and reviews, conferences, committees, weekly conference calls by department (ticketing, sales, marketing, etc), keynote speakers from successful pro sports franchises, and multiple opportunities for teams to share best practices with each other.
The league puts forth every effort to help teams, but the Commissioner also notes that the league can't force anyone to take the help. The onus is on each individual team's ownership and management to accept and use the resources. Some teams, acknowledges Lewis, use the resources much more frequently than others. (The two teams that the league heard from the least last year? The New Mexico Scorpions and the Rocky Mountain Rage).
Because of pending litigation, Lewis could not specifically state whether or not pro hockey would return to New Mexico in 2010-2011 or if any potential buyers had stepped forward to purchase the Scorpions franchise, but he did state that "there are markets where we (the CHL) won't be back into, but Albuquerque/Rio Rancho is not one. We want to be in there." Albuquerque/Rio Rancho, he continues, is "a large city that should be able to support hockey. We are attempting to do what we can to have CHL hockey in New Mexico for the 2010-2011 season."
Keep your fingers crossed, Scorpions fans.

I'm by no means trying to start a $h!t storm or anything, I'm VERY pro-choice when it comes to the way women decide to give birth. I'm just curious as to why some gals decide to go decline pain medication/epidurals. I've always been quick to accept the epidural b/c I figure why not? It's safe and makes things so much easier. (I also admit I don't think I could make it without it!) But of course I respect women that decide against it. So in order to culture me and help me gain perspective, what are some reasons why some of you choose to go natural?
Why go natural?
@herewegoagain ....in response to your cyber eyeroll.... I KNOW there's a huge difference in a tattoo needle vs epidural needle to the spine, I was just joshing with her. I ain't that stupid.
SAH Mom to Fin (8), Saylor (3) and welcomed our last baby, Beau, VaLeNtInEs dAy 2013!
dang greenqueen that sucks! I hope your back issues get better!
Reading everyone's perspective is very enlightening. I've always been curious why so many don't use any pain relief... I never ask b/c I don't want to get tar and feathered by a bunch of anti epidural nazi's. I rolled the dice and asked today and everyone's been pretty pleasant about it!
SAH Mom to Fin (8), Saylor (3) and welcomed our last baby, Beau, VaLeNtInEs dAy 2013!
My reasons for going natural with my first:
1. Didn't want to dose my baby, regardless of whether the effects were short- or long-term, and regardless of whether the effects impacted APGAR scores. I didn't care about any of that, I just did not want to flood my newborn's system with a pain med that he didn't need.
2. Statistically, epi's increase the chances that you'll end up with an emergency C-section. This occurs because they often make it more difficult for the laboring woman to feel her pushes and/or push correctly, which lengthens the labor, which leads to increased likelihood of emergency sections.
3. I really, really, really wanted to avoid a C-section. I'd had an abnormal pap, and was told repeatedly by every practitioner at my OB office that we wanted to try to have me deliver vaginally, even moreso than with other women, because there is something about delivering vaginally that aids the cervix in naturally sloughing off abnormal cells, after the baby is born. Getting a C-section would not confer this same benefit. I really wanted to get my cervix healthy again -- it was a real concern to be told that I had cervical cell dysplasia.
4. I had heard many, many stories of all the things that have gone wrong with epi's. In the "best" of those stories, the epi's simply didn't work. In the worst of those stories, the women ended up with long-term disabilities or pain -- permanent damage. I was surprised that it wasn't just one or two isolated, rare cases.
5. I didn't want to be required to labor on my back, which I was told would be necessary for the kind of epi administered by my hospital. Laboring on your back is the worst position for so many reasons. I also didn't want to be hooked up to a catheter -- which again, I was clearly told would be required for the kind of epi given by my hospital.
ETA: Forgot a major one: Epis increase your chances of getting pitocin, for reasons explained above regarding how it often lengthens a woman's labor. I did NOT want pitocin, not after what I learned about how it impacted the baby. I really wanted to avoid that "cascade of interventions."
There are a few other reasons, but those were my biggest ones.
@ebneezer... I didn't know that about #3... very informative. All of your posts are so well written, btw.
I think going all natural does sound pretty exciting...I enjoy hearing all natural birth stories a heck of a lot better than epi ones.
SAH Mom to Fin (8), Saylor (3) and welcomed our last baby, Beau, VaLeNtInEs dAy 2013!
I am more afraid of the epi. In my opinion pain is predictable and the possibility of problems with the eip aren't. And the pain wasn't unbearable - about the time you think you can't do it anymore it's over. Plus I think I would do just about anything to avoid a catheter,LOL. I did have a pretty fast labor, though, which I do think makes a big difference.
I dont' think the women's center I give birth at is too supportive of natural birth. I had a bleed when pregnant with my DD back in 2009 @27 weeks. I had to be monitored overnight in the L&D. There was a woman in the room next to me moaning loudly and letting out the occasional yelp... she was in active natural labor. The two nurses coming in to check on me were continuously bad mouthing her about refusing an epidural and saying she still had a long way to go and she needed to give it up and just get the drugs. I thought well dang that's not very nice! It's her choice.
SAH Mom to Fin (8), Saylor (3) and welcomed our last baby, Beau, VaLeNtInEs dAy 2013!
^^ How disrespectful and unprofessional of them! You'd think that working in a birth center, they'd get used to the idea that birth usually = pain. I'm pretty sure even with drugs it's not exactly a joyride!

========= Original post below =========
I own a 75 Wagoneer (since '97) and a 01 TJ. The TJ I bought new in 2000 and used as a daily driver for the first three years. During that time I ran a 3" lift and 31s ATs for street driving and 33 Swampers for offroad. In this config I ran stock gears and put a lock right in front. In around 02 I put in an Atlas II 4.3 to help out my crawl while keeping my highway gears since it was still a DD.
In 2002 I put on a 5.5" RE LA and moved to 35" MTRs. I regeared to 4.56s and put a detroit in the rear to replace the blown out trac-loc. After a few trips wondering if I could make it home, I decided it was time get a truck and trailer, so I took advantage of the 0% interest at the time and bought a Chevy 2500HD.
I started looking into putting a d44 in front, then found a good deal on a d60 for the rear. Then I found a great deal on d60 front so a whole new project started that ended up with me running 39.5" Iroks on 15x10 allied beadlocks. I was still running the RE LA, but we reconfigured the rear to be a 4-link.
The front d60 was shortened to 64.5" WMS to WMS and converted to 5x5.5 to work with the beadlocks I got for a good deal used. It got Moser inners and, 4.88s and detroit. I started with stock steering, but snapped the pitman arm after a year and moved to full hydro. The rear d60 was converted from FF to SF with 4.88s, spool, and 40-spline moser shafts.
Around the time I went to full hydro, I scrapped the RE LA and re-did the suspension. The front is 3-link with a panhard and the rear is a 4-link. When building it we stretched the front 8" and the rear 4" for a wheelbase of about 106".
We recently put in the cage. I kept setting up to have it done, and it would fall through for one reason or another. We finally bought a bender and just did it.

I went up to Drummond this year on a family vacation. I took my 3 year old daughter out for her first jeep trip. She seemed to like it, especially when we went for a swim at Shale Beach (us, not the jeep).

The shocks must have faded pulling off the trailer. You know those pesky air shocks.
It ain't a bad drive from here to there, maybe 30-35 minutes by back roads. It's probably only 20 miles, majority of it on gravel roads.

Love this game I absolutely love this game but I have 1 thing͵ is it possible to retrieve a save file, because I went through the whole game unbeaten but lost all of my data to a factory reset. Is there anyway to get that save file back (without Google play)
Love it with a suggestion I love it. I am addicted. I do have one suggestion: 3v3s. You should be allowed to make teams of 3 and have them play. Make it 4 if it is allowed to include goalies. If you add it, ask google to allow rates to 10 stars
Love this As soon as I checked this game out, it looked pretty interesting, and since there was a free version, I went to give it a shot. 5-10 min after, I bought the game! Loved the idea and a beautiful game overall!!!
Good game but slow I'm playing on an LG g3 and the frame rate seems to dip quite a bit when watching the matches. Can you fix this please? I've been reading on reviews from your other games and they all seem to lag someway when played in LG g3. I wanted to get more games from you, but I won't do it until this is fixed. Thanks :-)
Fantastica!!! It's getting addicted amazingly! Cute paintings, smart mechanism, great diversity of players' classes and so many more features make the game eventually so excited to be explored and challenged! It makes me recall the good old days of NES cartridge games, small but intelligent! P/s: a fantastica CAM is a must have playmaker!
Fixes Some times I love this game and some times I hate it. Like I go un defeated in the regionals and never wnin a game in nationals. I played a little more and soon I got 20,000 the max and got crushed. Either put another league between the regionals and the nationals or make the nationals easier. Other than that, it is a fun game.

Responses in a fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) ...
|Responses in a fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) lifecycle test and in wild white sucker (Catostomus commersoni) exposed to a Canadian bleached kraft mill effluent

|To evaluate currently available bioassays for their use in investigating the causes of pulp and paper mill effluent effects on fish reproduction, the responses of wild white sucker (Catostomus commersoni) collected from the receiving environment at the bleached kraft mill at La Tuque, Quebec, were compared with responses of fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) exposed to effluent in a laboratory lifecycle test. White sucker collected at effluent exposed sites had increased liver size but none of the reproductive effects that had been documented in earlier field studies at this site. Exposure to 1, 3, 10, 30, and 100% bleached kraft mill effluent (BKME) in the lab led to significantly decreased length, but increased weight and liver size in male fathead minnow. Female length was also decreased and liver size was increased at high effluent exposures. Most effluent concentrations (1 to 30%) significantly increased egg production compared with controls. The fathead minnow lifecycle assay mirrored the effects seen in wild fish captured downstream of the BKME discharge. These results will be used to select short-term fish tests for investigating the causes of and solutions to the effects of mill effluents on fish reproduction.

1 cup nondairy milk (I use soy)
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
1 small onion, diced
nonstick spray
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 egg equivalent (Ener-G and flax work equally well)
1 green pepper, diced
2 cups whole wheat bread crumbs
1 pound baked smoked tofu (use leftovers or store-bought, vacuum sealed kind), diced
1/2 cup dulse or nori, toasted and crumbled
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning, or to taste
1. Mix the vinegar or lemon juice into the milk and let set for 5 minutes, or until it develops a buttermilk-like consistency. Meanwhile, simmer onion in non-stick cooking spray or water until translucent and lightly browned on the edges. Scrape onion into a large mixing bowl and set aside.
2. Heat "buttermilk" and flour over low heat until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and cool. Add to the bowl with the onions: egg equivalent, green pepper, bread crumbs, tofu, and dulse (or nori). Mix well and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. (I have the best results when allowing the mixture to set up overnight.)
3. Preheat oven to 350*F. Shape mixture into patties and place on a non-stick cooking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, or until lightly crisp on the outside, flipping the patties (each patty, not the trays) once halfway through cooking. Sprinkle with Old Bay and serve.

Parents, volunteers, teachers and staff unite to help Betz Elementary students learn about far off places
April 10, 2014 | Vol. 117 -- No. 51
John McCallum
A parent-volunteer reviews a Betz student's geographic knowledge for The Passport Club.
Next time you run into a student from Cheney's Betz Elementary School, ask them what level they are in the Passport Club? If they're a "Geo Whiz," they should respond by naming all 195 countries in the world.
If they can't do it off the top of their head, they have got a small, blue book to prove that they know them.
The Passport Club was started by Betz parent-volunteer Daiatra Westlund. Westlund got involved in the program when her family lived in Olympia, which is where former elementary school teacher and parent-volunteer Lynn Erickson created the program in 1994.
According to a Jan. 14...

While posting the Yamantaka eYe exhibition yesterday I realised I haven't uploaded his PLANETARY NATURAL LOVE GAS WEBBIN' 199999 mix CD yet. Personally I don't like it as much as his DJ CHAOS - LIVE MIXXX, but then it's nothing like that, but still definitely worth owning. I'm feeling a bit lazy to upload it myself and because it slows my computer when I do it, so here is a link I've found where you can get it and thank the person for taking the time out to upload it for you to enjoy.

so what happened to Pete? Is he too busy playing guitar solos in Stoke Newington cemetery to re-post that same Italo-disco YouTube clip he keeps posting?

I am 32, in pretty good shape and I have started to take on weight. I am now overweight (BMI 26). Although I exercise 3 times per week, I always feel very hungry and find it extremely difficult to avoid eating during the day. I have also tried to improve what I am eating. On the advice of my doctor, I am now considering taking Meridia for a short period of time, to help loose some of the weight and help me fight my food cravings.
However, we are considering having a baby. I am wondering if they are any side effects (especially on conception) that I should be aware of. As said, I am in good shape, no medical problems, no other medication and normal blood pressure.
First of all, Meridia would not be indicated for you. A BMI of 26 is just not that bad. Secondly, I generally frown on using a drug for this purpose unless there is a major current health problem (or risk) due to obesity. I'm doubtful any study has shown whether or not Merida can affect male fertility, but it seems unlikely. I recommend considering a low carbohydrate diet such as The South Beach Diet. People generally have fewer cravings on a low carb diet and weight loss can progress pretty rapidly in many cases, making it especially attractive.

I've built myself a WA5VJB-design yagi for 435 MHz according to the plans at http://www.clarc.org/Articles/uhf.htm Just linear for now (horizontal). However I'm having a devil of a time tuning it. Although I can get a resistive part of around 50 ohms I have a reactive part of around -50 ohms as well. Moving the feed point along the driven element changes things but the SWR never gets very low. Closest to the boom it is 2:1 or so. Any suggestions for tuning up this antenna? I believe my element lengths and spacing are reasonably accurate. thanks, Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB <firstname.lastname@example.com> <firstname.lastname@example.com> ---- Sent via email@example.com.

It seems that fans of "The Real Housewives of New York City" don't have to worry about the show getting canceled despite its low ratings, at least if Andy Cohen still has some say over the show's fate. In an interview with Bravo TV's The Dish and a tweet that he sent a fan, Andy expressed how much he loves the ladies of New York City.
In his interview with The Dish, posted on Monday, June 16, Andy gave a small preview of what viewers can expect when they watch the season six reunion show, which filmed on the previous Friday. He said that the reunion had everything that one loves about the "Real Housewives" reunions, including "drama and laughs."
And it seems that unlike the recent reunions of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" and "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," New York City's reunion will be very light-hearted and fun. Andy said that there were so many absurdities that happened that "there were too many to count."
The morning of the reunion filming, Andy had actually assured a nervous fan that the show is doing great. A fan, alluding to Simon van Kempen's article about the show's disastrous ratings, tweeted Andy that the network's decision to have such a long break between seasons four and five hurt the ratings. As some may or may not know, Simon van Kempen is the husband of former housewife Alex McCord. He now runs the Bravo Ratings website.
Instead of just ignoring the tweet, Andy chose to respond. He wrote that not only is the show doing great but more importantly, he and others at the network "LOVE IT!!" Of course, while Andy's responses seems to indicate that "The Real Housewives of New York City" isn't going anywhere, that doesn't mean that the cast members, Ramona Singer, Sonja Morga, Heather Thomson, Carole Radziwill, Kristen Taekman, and Aviva Drescher, don't have to worry about being replaced!

I lost two hours yesterday as my Elipses all missed the main menu bar. I had no problems with Eclipse at first after installing Ubuntu 10.10. But then yesterday I tried Unity and after realizing that it was useless, I logged out and in again into the normal Gnome shell. OK - time to do some serious work. So I started Eclipse, and...? NO MENUS!!! After a long while of searching I found out there was an environment variable: UBUNTU_MENUPROXY that fucked upp apps by moving the menu bar to .... somewhere ...!
I found out that the file /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80appmenu contained the line:
export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY="libappmenu.so"
So I just edited the line using
sudo gedit /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80appmenu
put a comment char in front of the line to make it:
#export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY="libappmenu.so"
Now all my Eclipses works again.

So Alpha data is awesome, always has been always will be. Wanna know why? Because he does things like remixing songs by Brothers Past. Seriously who does that? Anyways, he calls this genre of song Lazer/Glitch and I would tend to agree with him on this for sure. The song is super tight and I have a feeling your going to be pleasantly surprised. Enjoy.

Owner Hairston Makes History
New York Met's Scott Hairston, co-owner of Sabakiball International, recently became the 10th player in Mets history to hit for "the cycle" (single, double, triple, and home run in a single game). Scott and his wife Jill became part owners in Sabakiball International back in November of 2011 after meeting founder Michael Cerpok at a sport convention. They have already made a positive impact on the growth of Sabakiball and continue to assist in "brainstorming" new concepts and directions for the company. Congratulations Scott!

There's a newcomer to the heatsink market, but can they take on the big boys? Only one way to find out, and thats to head over to 8Balls Hardware and see their take on the CoolMax CBG-38 HSF. here's a snip:
"At first glance the heatsink looks like a Power Cooler PCH137/ OCZ Gladiator but further inspection reveals that its a totally different heatsink. Its easy to mistake it because of its similar size and shape and also the long and slim fins. The difference being the clip which is more conventional compared to the Power Cooler PCH137/ OCZ Gladiator where the clip actually clamps the cooler down by the two bars which run though the heatsink."

Was greeted politely and shown to our table, ambience pretty good with the heart shaped balloons all around. First served with Love Potions (cocktail) with lime and cherry. Appetizer was Hotate avo Salad, with Japanese Scallops, Prawn, Bell Peppers, Onions, Avocados and Lime. Then came Salmon Taru Taru, Salmon slices topped with mayonnaise and Roe. Main dish was Wagyu Korokke, it's tender, juicy and comes with heart shaped Bell Peppers and Potato Tempura! Top it off with Chirashi Sushi that comes with Prawns, Avocados and Cheese romantically shaped. Dessert was Apple Harumaki with hot apple fillings wrapped and slightly flamed! Overall food and drink quality for the set was good!
Went on a Friday evening. Ordered sashimi and some maki to start while waiting for the rest of the group to some. The sashimi is not thawed properly and the replacement is not much better. Decided to venture elsewhere so not to spoil the night. Price is pretty steep for the quality. Will not go back again ever!
For details, please visit http://foodesteem.blogspot.sg/2013/08/tomo-izakaya.html
Spacious place, and able to opt for tatami seats, it also has live band on certain days.
They have a wide selection for food and drinks. But if you are looking at noodles and rice, it is no more than two full pages.
Miso Nikomi Udon ($15.50). Soup is not too salty, and udon is cooked just nice. Salmon Sushi ($8.00) with a little wasabi in it.
Wakadori Sansyou Yaki ($14.50). Grilled chicken with Japanese sansyou pepper, that comes with somewhat taste like mashed potato. Shitake Mentai Cheese ($7.50). Despite having cheese on top, it isn't cheesy though.
Tsukune Teriyaki ($6.50). Compared with Tori-Q, I would actually prefer the latter, as their meat ball is too mushy.
Generally, their food are ok, but lacking of the "yummy" factor. The food is not worth the value, in my opinion.
For details, please visit http://foodesteem.blogspot.sg/2013/08/tomo-izakaya.html
I went there last weekend with two of my friends. We had nearly nothing and spent sgd 150. The salmon was not fresh. Waiters are not friendly. They will never reply your "thanks" after refilling your cup and they know only showing their d**k faces. Terrible place and i will NEVER go again.
I am always intrigued by the crowd in Tomo Izakaya and thought hmmm there must be something that I am missing so the chance is finally here.
Seaweed Salad - Can't recall name of salad but this is my favourite, main ingredient is seaweed
Smoked Duck Appertizer - Do not order this! It's like dried smoked duck that is steamed. Meat is dry and almost tasteless
Cha Soba - Nothing to talk about
Mushroom rolled with Pork Belly - If only pork belly was thinner, it would be better. One of the better dish
Sashimi Moriwase - Hubby is particular bout freshness, he didn't even mention his sashimi the whole nite
Asparagus wrapped with Bacon - Hubby said mine is better
Chicken with leek - Not too much taste but chicken was pretty tender
Scallop wrapped with Bacon - Mild tasting, pretty ok for me
Miso Soup - Strong mushroom taste and pretty blande
I wasn't too thrill about paying for my food cos I seriously didn't enjoy anything except 2 dishes :( In other words, we will never bother going there ever again & I seriously doubt the ppl who are in love with their food.
Was looking on a place to have a nice dinner wif my gf on valentines day where we found Tomo. Place looked inviting and waiters looked enthusiastic when we went in, but MAN.... it was a mistake.......
We ordered a 40 dollars sushi platter which never came. We waited for that expensive platter for 1 hour... asked the waiter afew times and they told us it will come in 5 minutes...... we waited for another 10 minutes and it still didnt come. I asked for the manager to come and he didnt even know which dishes were served. So we decided to leave. The manager didnt even dare to face us when we asked for the bill.... and he ask his "kah kia" to come and handle the situation. The thing is the table next to ours and behind us didnt get their orders as well and im amazed at how they are able to charge us service charge for their horrendous service.
Never make the same mistake as us, totally spoiled our valentine's day.
