The Regime Complex for Plant Genetic Resources

This article examines the implications of rising density on the evolution of international institutions. Despite the increase in international institutions scholarship on regimes has continued to embrace the assumption that individual regimes are decomposable from others. We contend that an increasingly common phenomenon is the "regime complex": a collective of partially-overlapping and non-hierarchical regimes. Regime complexes develop in special, often path-dependent ways. They are laden with legal inconsistencies because the rules in one regime are rarely negotiated in the same institution or at the same time as rules in related regimes. The architects of these regimes attempt to avoid the most serious inconsistencies by adopting broad rules that allow for multiple interpretations; in turn, solutions refined through efforts at implementing these rules focus later rounds of negotiation and legalization. We illustrate the concept and the evolution of a regime complex using the rarely-studied issue of plant genetic resources (PGR). Over the last century governments have created property rights in these resources in a Demsetzian process: as new technologies and ideas have made PGR far more valuable, firms and governments have mobilized and clashed over the creation of property rights that allow the appropriation of that value.

Today is National Pina Colada Day! You don't need to be on a cruise, lounging at the beach or on some tropical island this afternoon to take time out to enjoy one of the most popular frozen drinks summer has to offer. If the pina colada is on your lists of favorites, than you have a great excuse to enjoy one today no matter where you are.
According to a Food.com report National Pina Colada Day is celebrated around the world every July 10. The pina colada was originally created in San Juan, Puerto Rico and has grown to become a favorite of millions of people worldwide. The ingredients for a classic pina colada are simple.
All you need to make this classic drink is pineapple or pineapple juice, rum, coconut cream and ice. That's it! Of course you can't enjoy your pina colada without drinking one to the world famous song by Rupert Holmes.
"Escape (The Pina Colada Song)" was released by Holmes back in 1979 and has been a cult classic ever since.
While it is debatable of when and exactly who came up with original pina colada, legend says the earliest trace of the classic drink dates all the way back to the 19th century.
It's been said that Puerto Rican pirate Roberto Cofresí used to give his crew a cocktail that contained coconut, pineapple and white rum to boost their moral. Those ingredients are what we know today as a pina colada. Corfresi died in 1825 and unfortunately at that time the recipe for the piña colada was lost.
Nowadays many bars and restaurants not only serve the classic pina colada, but they have put several twists on the old classic. If you are interested in some different recipes on how to make a pina colada, be sure to click here.

Michael Douglas gave the fans of Behind the Candelabra a reason to really appreciate the movie. The HBO film had the fans interested in the life of Liberace, but Michael Douglas gave fans another reason to watch the movie again. Dishing on the red carpet of the Golden Globe Awards about the film, Douglas shared that he once met the star when he was a kid and it was a meeting he would ever forget.
"We were in Palm Springs," said Michael Douglas on the red carpet. Sharing he was with his father legendary actor Kurt Douglas as a kid, the chance meeting had many realizing how important it was for Michael to make Liberace come to life on film. "He was like blinding me with his rings and the gold around his neck."
The encounter wasn't shared before with the fans and it is obvious the impact the moment had on the star. When talking about the fan moment, Michael Douglas glowed with delight in sharing how the meeting came full circle and he was able to portray the man he once met.
Take a look at the video clip of Michael Douglas talking about Liberace on the Golden Globe Awards red carpet.

TakeOff from St. Maarten as seen from cockpit 747.
To answer some remarks from viewers:
Why is T/O so fast and short? Well aircraft weighs only 260.000 kgs (max = 396.000kgs) in this T/O with only 30.000 kgs of fuel for a flight time of 1hr15min to Curacao (you can see the landing here: ). With this low weight Vr is 125kts and climbout speed is 155kts(=V2 + 10kts)
Why is V1 and Vr called so close?
Because, when a/c is very light you have to increase V1 to the Vmcg(=Vmin control ground)speed. If you don't and start flying below this speed and an outboard engine fails, you are not able to control a/c. That's why in this T/O V1 is the same as Vr.
Yes, it's a 747. No, it's not fake.

New Orleans Saints 24, Houston Texans 23
The Saints came out firing in the third quarter when Luke McCown found Andy Tanner in the end zone for a 14-yard touchdown. The Saints' drive was helped by a 40-yard defensive pass interference penalty two plays earlier, which put them into the red zone.
The Texans responded late in the quarter with an 11-yard touchdown pass from quarterback T.J. Lates to Alec Lemon.
Luke McCown exited the game after completing 10-of-14 passes for 118 yards and two touchdowns, giving way to rookie Ryan Griffin early in the third quarter.

Meet Richard, A Sydneysider
Did you know that in the capital of New South Wales, a Sydneysider is what they call a local? If you're making your first visit to Sydney, Australia, there's a Sydneysider you really want to meet. Richard Graham runs "My Sydney Detour." It's a private sightseeing company introducing you to the authentic local scene, which Richard likes to call "the city, the beaches and the bush."
So cool
When was the last time you sat in the front passenger seat (on the other side, of course) of a shiny baby blue meticulously restored 1964 EH Holden Premier? Yes, that's your front row seat for the day to explore the hidden side of this stunning city with a charming gentleman. For those, like me, who didn't know....Holden is quite special, the only car built for Australians by Australians, in production since 1908.
VIP treatment
Richard will drive by to collect you from your hotel accommodation, private residence or cruise ship for a tour from three hours or longer, as you prefer. By the time I got downstairs in the elevator to join Richard, the hotel doorman and passersby were admiring the Holden. You do get used to that as the day unfolds. Get ready for seeing Sydney-off-the-beaten-track and for hearing anecdotal insider bits and pieces that leave you thinking this is the best city and this is the best city tour ever.
Have it your way
The other thing that's special is your tour. No two are alike, because Richard's clients help determine just what he'll show and share with all the passion and know-how that only a native can muster. If you're bonkers over beaches, you'll see a good deal more than Bondi. If National Parks are your thing, you've not seen views from bluffs like these. Perhaps an urban crawl through art galleries, neighborhood coffee shops and meeting local artisan makers? Absolutely.
Sydney rocks
If you'd rather just leave the tour itinerary to Richard, you won't be disappointed. We stopped at a cemetery overlooking the surf, walked over a historic bridge to a well-hidden lake with prehistoric rock formations at the edge of the bush, ate lunch at a sweet restaurant where the chef toured us through his cottage garden, donned aprons for a handmade butter producer's factory tour, took great photos from a hilltop spot with superb harbour views, shopped sunflowers at a farmers market, and shared cappuccino and conversation with local artists in a neighborhood coffee shop.
There's no question that Sydney is a superb city, graced with a stunning setting. It is thanks to Richard's touring skills that your Sydney visit will be unforgettable.
Read more about My Sydney Detour, and if you're going to Sydney, tell Richard hello!

Riptide has been a mainstay on the Tulane sideline since 1998.
From 1893 to 1919, the athletic teams of Tulane were known as the Olive and Blue. In 1919, the Tulane Weekly, one of Tulane's many student newspapers at the time, began calling the football team the Greenbacks.
On Oct. 20, 1920, Earl Sparling, the editor of the Tulane Hullabaloo, wrote a football song which was printed in the newspaper. The song was titled "The Rolling Green Wave." Although the name was not immediately adopted, it began to receive acceptance. A month later, a report of the Tulane-Mississippi A&M game in the Hullabaloo referred to the team as the Green Wave.
By the end of the season, the Hullabaloo was using the term Green Wave to refer to all Tulane athletic teams, as were many daily papers, although as late as 1923, the name Greenbacks was still in use.
In its infancy, Tulane's mascot was depicted as a pelican riding on a surf board. The surfing pelican image lasted for more than 50 years.
The "Greenie" was adopted in 1955. It was created by John Chase, a local cartoonist who drew the covers of the Tulane football program and those of many teams throughout the South.
When Dr. Rix Yard became the athletic director in 1963, he felt Tulane needed a more virile symbol for its teams. Working with Eldon Endacott, the manager of the Tulane bookstore, he arranged for a new mascot to be created. Several sketches were submitted by Art Evans, art director for Angelus-Pacific, Co., in Fullerton, Calif.
The angry-looking wave was adopted in 1964, and the block "T" with waves became the Tulane athletics logo in 1986.
Tulane unveiled a new family of marks in August 1998. The new logos featured the return of the pelican to the Green Wave look, along with the use of a "T" with a modern "wave" as a primary logo mark. A new pelican mascot was introduced and given the name Riptide by a vote of Tulane students.

The Joint Aquarium Fiji Expedition left Makogai last spring, but the expedition members continue to be closely connected to the Makogai people and developments in Fiji. Recently, the Namena Marine Reserve and the crew of NAI'A were featured in a Discovery photo essay called "Coral Success Story" by Emily Sohn. The story highlights successes of Marine Protected Areas around Fiji, and it's definitely worth checking out.
Detail photo by Keith Ellenbogen.
There have also been reports that the Makogai clam farm is back up and running. During the expedition, it was reported that equipment malfunctions and lack of funds stalled the farm, but since then the Fiji Government has asked for restoration of project funds and now the only Tridacna farm in all of Fiji is back up and running!
The 100-year-old generator that powered the Makogai farms was out of fuel at the beginning of this year. Photo by Bruce Thayer.
The clam farms are growing two different species: Tridacna gigas and crocea juveniles. They are reared for distribution to the reefs in protected areas all over the country. According to reports, these large healthy specimens produce prodigous amounts of gametes and innoculate surrounding areas that are pretty much devoid of clams.

History was made on Saturday as the New Orleans Saints won their first road playoff game, and in cold weather no less. The Saints defeated the Philadelphia Eagles, 26-24, and are moving for a divisional round rematch against the Seattle Seahawks.
The Seahawks handed the Saints their worst loss of the season in early December, defeating them 34-7 at CenturyLink Field.
But it's a new year and a clean slate for the Saints, who will face the Seahawks this Saturday. So bring on your questions.
Send in your questions via the comment section below, and I'll do my best to answer them from noon to 1 p.m. today.

AVON LAKE — Brendan Aussem believes he learned something valuable at last week's Division I district golf tournament and he hopes it will pay dividends for him at the state tournament at Ohio State's Scarlet Course.
It wasn't the mostly steady way he played in shooting a 2-over 74 at Red Hawk Run in Findlay, however, and it wasn't the way he reached down deep to hit a clutch shot out of deep rough to save par after nearly losing his ball on the first playoff hole.
No, the Avon Lake junior is taking his lessons from the triple bogey he made at the 11th hole that nearly cost him a third straight trip to state.
It's the foundation of his game plan for the tournament which begins today.
"The goal is to not get anything over a bogey, to limit my bogeys and avoid stupid results," Aussem said. "I like to be aggressive all the time, but there's smart aggressive and stupid aggressive."
Aussem, who made his first trip to state as an individual his freshman year and also made it last year when the Shoremen qualified as a team, classifies the triple bogey he made at districts as "stupid aggressive."
Aussem started the hole with the right mind-set, taking a safe club off the tee to find the fairway. Unfortunately he didn't hit it very well and was left with some 200 yards to the green. Facing a bad lie and needing to clear a lake in front of the green, Aussem threw caution to the wind and went for broke.
He made the wrong kind of splash with the shot and suffered the consequences.
"I should have laid up and taken my bogey," he said.
Easy to say, not always so easy to do, but Aussem seems committed to dialing it back a notch this weekend when needed.
Don't be fooled though. Aussem doesn't plan to play it safe this weekend, just smart. After all, he believes his game is clicking at just the right time.
"I'm feeling confident," he said. "My swing's feeling the best it's felt all year. I've been confident all year, but I have more confidence now than I have all year."
It's been a confidence-inspiring season, that's for sure. Aussem has averaged 74 for 18 holes, while sprinkling in a few rounds in the 60s, and has had only two rounds in the 80s.
That kind of consistency has Aussem believing he's got a better chance to contend at state this year than he might have his previous appearances.
"Freshman year I was just seeing what it was all about," said Aussem, who shot an 86 to tie for 56th in a tournament reduced to one round because of rain. "It was tough. I was kind of nervous."
Last year his goal was to finish in the top 20, but he shot 82-83 to tie for 35th.
Avon Lake coach Amy Manco knows Aussem's a much different player than the freshman she watched try to tackle the daunting Scarlet two years ago.
"One thing is he's just a lot stronger," Manco said. "He hits the ball a ton. The physical changes are amazing. When he was a freshman the length of that course really challenged him. … I think he's a lot more confident now, too. When he was a freshman it was the glory of being there. Now it's let's go down there and win this thing."
"I put a lot of hard work and dedication into it," he said. "I expect results."

"Dissapearing (sic) Act"
Reviewed by: Michael O'Connor
Superman, Flash, and Hawkgirl want to know why Batman's junior partner has snuck into the Watchtower, and Robin, after some initial hesitation, tells them: Batman is missing and J'onn J'onnz just attacked a book store owner for the man's family heirloom, a shard of an old talisman. Something strange is definitely going on, and Robin needs the Justice League's help in figuring it out.
But before the group can come up with an organized plan, they hear news of a rogue Green Lantern, robbing an electronics store employee of a talisman similar to the one J'onn J'onnz swiped. When the League arrives to confront their friend, they realize that there's something distinctly different about Mr. Stewart, like, for instance, he's actually Clayface!
The villain takes out the League without much trouble and escapes, leaving Flash, Superman, Hawkgirl, and Robin with only one option for furthering the investigation - a visit to the Slabside Island Penitentiary. While there, they confirm Clayface's escape from the facility and Robin's investigative skills lead him to Clayface's cell, where he discovers a false brick and, behind it, a concealed book of magic spells.
Though confused by what Clayface would want with a book of spells, Robin isn't given much time to ponder the mystery. News of a third pendant robbery, this time by Wonder Woman, sets the League into motion.
Of course, it's not Wonder Woman; it's Clayface and, again, the super villain clocks out with the knickknack before the League can get in a solid hit. After Clayface's escape, Robin suggests that the League return to the Slabside Penitentiary, where he believes they'll find the master planner behind the whole operation: Felix Faust.
Robin's hunch pays off. Faust is indeed controlling Clayface to obtain the pieces of a talisman that, when combined, give him supreme power. Faust and Clayface hold off the League, but before the evil sorcerer can chant his incantation, a batarang smashes the talisman into even more shards.
Faust is just about to obliterate Robin for dismantling his plan when Robin recites his own incantation, freeing Faust's control over another subject: a prisoner that is, in fact, an undercover Batman.
The Dark Knight springs on an unsuspecting Faust and wraps up the case with a well-placed punch.
Story - 4: Given this title's recent track record (one bomb after another), it's nice to have an above-average effort with a solid enough story, great characterizations, a tidy little mystery, and good super villain presence. While there are a number of plot holes or inconsistencies in the story (1 - Isn't Faust dead? 2 - Where the heck are the real Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, and J'onn J'onnz? 3 - Why would Clayface disguise himself as a Justice League member? It only draws more attention to him!), it is, for whatever reason, forgivable. The 'Adventures' comics have rarely aspired to reaching the quality and depth of the animated series they're based on; often, the best that we can expect is a fun story that cuts slightly against the grain - and that's what this story ultimately accomplishes. It's engaging and amusing, and in a comics world that now embraces darker, more adult themes and long, convoluted storytelling, there's something to be said for what a good issue of JL Adventur
es (like this one) promises - a nice read.
Art - 4: Tim Levins really steps up in this issue. Great layouts show that Levins had some fun with the assignment, especially the page where Robin's unraveling the mystery in the foreground while the League faces off against Clayface in the background. Levins also masterfully captures both Robin's admiration and sheepishness around the League, by portraying the JL members as towering giants to Robin's limited size and experience. Capable, quality inking by Riggs is definitely a bonus.
Cover Art - 2: UGH! Where do I start? Green Lantern's face looking like a hideously contorted mask? The non-existent background? The misleading image? (Robin doesn't fight the Justice League!) No matter which way you cut it, this is just a bad cover all around. I know the artist of these works on the show, but his covers for this book have been, for the most part, pretty hideous.

Parineeti Chopra unplugged
"I don't hate anything about the industry but the lack of privacy is somewhat bugging," says actor Parineeti Chopra as she settles down to chat with CS.
Finally! at home
As many know, I never aimed to become an actor. It just happened to me. Now, I have realised that acting is what keeps me truly happy. Looking back, I don't think I was fit for the routine office job. I used to sing in office, make a lot of noise and never thought about anything logically. My colleagues felt that I just didn't have the sophistication required for the executive level (laughs out aloud).
Greasepaint gossip
As an actor, I am really spontaneous. I do what my director tells me to do. Frankly, I don't believe in method acting. Nor do I observe other actors intently or watch too many films. I think doing all of that takes away your originality. I like to use my own brain and instincts. Yes, my education has helped me in the sense that I am very pro homework and disciplined. I prefer doing some research on my character, setting, situation, etc.
Money matters
I am a very laidback person. I love my work, and money is something that's not on my mind 24×7. Thankfully, I have enough and more to fulfill my present needs. Yes, I am ambitious and want to own a house and a car but there's no hurry. I firmly believe that money should come over a period of time. It's fun when people talk about my remuneration though (laughs).
Beyond the camera
Honestly, I am a lazy person. But I am very enthusiastic. I am not at all athletic or aggressive like Zoya of Ishaqzaade. When it comes to clothes, I am most comfortable in ganji, tees and denims. Food and music are two things that interest me. I love eating pizzas above anything else and enjoy singing. In fact, everyone in my khandaan loves to croon. Priyanka (Priyanka Chopra) is a huge inspiration for me. Like her, I want to carve my own identity with my talent, hard work and professionalism. It will be great to hear that both the Chopra sisters are equally good actors.

Vanquished: Kelly Cordes Chases a Fleeting Ice Route in His Own Backyard
Sometimes you don't have to travel to Pakistan for a meaningful alpine experience. Our good friend and product tester, Kelly Cordes, who's also the senior editor of The American Alpine Journal, has been on "The Chase" in his own backyard looking for ephemeral melt/freeze lines. Says Kelly, "It's staggering to think about how many hours of time I, and others, spend on recon missions, carrying the gear around pursuing some rumor, studying maps and weather forecasts and scheming, etc. [The Chase] certainly applies to surfers as well, from what I gather, probably skiers too, finding the right stash and right conditions." Today, Kelly shares with us the ups and downs of The Chase and how, with some local knowledge and little luck, it can pay off.
Since moving to Estes Park eight years ago, I, like every ice and alpine climber around, have fantasized about a route called Vanquished. Every fall and every spring, Rocky Mountain National Park climbers whisper about fleeting smears of ice and patterns of precipitation, temps, wind and sun. Ice will form and disappear within 24 hours. Rumors and notions circulate like conspiracy theories. The Chase begins.
[Photo: Steve Su hiking to the base after we killed an hour gearing up and hanging out in the rocks below, waiting for sunrise. It'd been cold at night (and T-shirt rock climbing weather down low in the days), but the forecast called for a warm afternoon, thus forcing us to eschew the preferred "crack-of-noon" style in favor of a proper alpine start, to try to finish the route early. I'd been chasing the route for so long that I didn't want to risk missing it. All photos © Kelly Cordes.]

What We're Following on Instagram This Week
Here's what the @pdnonline folks are checking out this week on Instagram.
Cengiz Yar, Jr @burndiary
Burn, the online magazine for emerging photographers founded by David Alan Harvey, has been using Instagram to post photo essays: one photographer sharing photos from somewhere in the world for seven days. This week: Cengiz Yar, Jr., (@hfwh) posting from Syria, mainly the Kurdish-controlled region, and from a refugee camp for Syrians in Lebanon.
Thanks to PDN's 30 photographer Zun Lee (@zunleephoto), whose work we featured last week on PDN Photo of the Day and on the @pdnonline Instagram feed, for introducing us to this one. Social Photography is using Instagram as a virtual gallery and online forum in connection with its physical gallery exhibition this month at Indy India Art Gallery in Indianapolis. Social Photography is fostering a dialogue about how social media and the sharing of images is changing both photography and how we view our daily lives. In addition to Zun Lee, contributing photographers have included Samantha Box, Lauren Bohn and Patricia Lay Dorsey.
Daro Sulakauri for @opensocietyfoundations
Daro Sulakauri (@darosulakauri) is taking over the IG feed of Open Society Foundations, posting from Tchiatura, a manganese-mining town in the Republic of Georgia. The story is brutal, the images beautiful.
Carl De Keyzer for @newyorkerphoto
Magnum photographer Carl De Keyzer (@carldekeyzer) is taking followers of the New Yorker Photo Booth to an exotic locale called his backyard. All week he's posting from his home and garden. De Keyzer lives in a restored castle "somewhere between Ghent and Brussels in Belgium." This proves, yet again, that you don't have to venture too far to make great photos, especially if you live in a restored castle and have a garden with peacocks and geese and a big white dog.

Junior guard Danielle Blagg goes up for two of her team-best 18 points against No. 22 Middle Tennessee on Wednesday.
March 5, 2014

Tulane/Middle Tennessee Game Book In PDF Format
NEW ORLEANS - It was a case of good news/bad news for the Tulane University women's basketball team left the court on Wednesday evening following it's regular-season finale against Conference USA newcomer and 22nd-ranked Middle Tennessee.
When the final horn sounded to mark the end of the Green Wave's showdown with a Blue Raiders' team that had already locked up the 2013-14 C-USA title, Tulane (20-9, 11-5) found itself on the wrong end of a 64-52 score which gave the team its first loss in a home finale since 1993. Midway through the second half, however, the Wave received word that Old Dominion had defeated East Carolina, 87-78, in Norfolk, Va., and that allowed Tulane to clinch the No. 4 seed in the upcoming C-USA Women's Basketball Championship.
"I certainly think it is an advantage but whatever we needed to do, we were ready," Tulane head coach Lisa Stockton said. "It is nice to be able to watch the tournament and our opponents. We are going to be able to watch [potential quarterfinal's opponent East Carolina] live, and that is always good. It is good to take a little pressure off of us these first two rounds. By the time we play there are a lot of teams that have already gone home. This is a great opportunity and this is a great conference. We finished in the top four. Anything can happen. We just need to put three good games together and I think this team has the potential to put those games together."
Junior guard Danielle Blagg led the Green Wave with 18 points after sinking 8-of-14 shots from the field, including a 2-of-3 performance from beyond the 3-point arc. Sophomore center Chinwe Duru was next on the team offensively with 10 points to go with six rebounds and blocked shot.
Junior forward Tiffany Dale paced the squad with seven rebounds and a career-high six blocked shots. Junior point guard Jamie Kaplan, meanwhile, handed out a game-best 10 assists to mark her sixth double-digit dime effort of the 2013-14 season.
Tulane shot 39.3 percent from the field (22-of-56) against Middle Tennessee and held the Blue Raiders to a .322 clip for the game (19-of-59), including an 8-for-33 showing in the second half (.242). The difference in the contest came at the free throw line, where Middle Tennessee was 19-for-21 while the Green Wave went 5-of-7. The Green Wave were also out-rebounded, 41-35, and despite giving up 21 offensive boards Tulane actually held a 14-13 edge in second-chance points.
"I thought the team was excited for the game," Stockton said. "It was a great opportunity for us and we certainly knew that a double-bye was at stake. We felt that this was a team that if we want to win the conference tournament, we are going to have to go through again. The stats that made the difference were their free throws and their rebounding. Those two were clearly different. We got seven free throws for the game and they got 21. That is a pretty big disparity to overcome."
Tulane got off to a good start, scoring the first four points of the contest and holding Middle Tennessee scoreless for over four and a half minutes. The Green Wave led by as many as five at 9-4 with 12:46 to play in the opening half before Middle Tennessee used an 11-2 run over the next 3:05 to take a 15-11 lead it would not relinquish. The Blue Raiders' advantage swelled to as many as 10 twice in the first half, but Tulane scored five of the final eight points of the period to go into the locker room down, 36-28.
The deficit fluctuated between six and 10 points over the first 12 minutes of the second half. Following a Blagg jumper with 8:02 left play and make it a nine-point affair at 52-43, Middle Tennessee quieted any talks of a Green Wave comeback as Ebony Rowe sank a layup, Janay Brinkley drilled a 3-pointer and Olvia Jones hit1-of-2 free throws over the next 2:13 to stretch the lead to 15.
Tulane answered with a 7-0 run courtesy of a three-point play by Dale and consecutive layups by junior wing Adesuwa Ebomwonyi to make it 58-50 with 1:38 left on the clock, but the Blue Raiders all six of their free throw opportunities down the stretch to keep the Green Wave at bay.
"A loss is never easy to take," Blagg added. "I think we finished out well, not that it was our goal. Our goal was to win the league. Give a lot of credit to Middle Tennessee because they deserve to be there. We are a little disappointed, but we are okay with where we are at. I think it is a big advantage with two byes. Getting to watch the teams and getting to scout them is a huge advantage."
Rowe led Middle Tennessee with game-high totals of 24 points and 14 rebounds while leading the Blue Raiders with three assists and sharing team-high steal honors with Shanice Cason at two thefts apiece. Caroline Warden and KeKe Stewart also posted-figure offensive totals for the Blue Raiders with 11 and 10 points, respectively.
The 2014 C-USA Championship will begin on Tuesday, March 11, and Tulane's first game in the tournament will be on Thursday, March 13, at 2:30 p.m. (CST) in El Paso, Texas. The five-day event will conclude on Saturday, March 15, with the title game, which is slated for 7 p.m. The winner of the C-USA Championship will receive the league's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.

Oh God... Please don't let this Oak Black Half Tank with Asymmetric Hem ($82) become "in." If, heaven forbid it did, we could see it going into hipster-redneck territory, like ironic trucker caps and mullets; alternately, it could be co-opted by club kid guido wannabes trying to impress girls with their "juiced" biceps. It's bad enough that they took a $3 Hanes black undershirt and lopped off one sleeve + part of the front hem, and are charging $82 for it, but we can't decide one crucial thing, and fear it may keep us awake at night: Is this an attempt to make underarm hair "fetch"?
I thought this was a womens blog?
This post is pretentious. I hope Oak reads this post and cuts off all ties with your silly blog. Sure, the design is unusual but that doesn't mean that Oak's fabric quality is the equivalent of "a $3 Hanes undershirt".
The poll options are an insult to the readers' intelligence. What if someone genuinely liked the shirt - for example, someone who has a broken arm or no arm at all?
This blog continues to lose credibility each day and does not compare to Uncrate at all.
Oh, go away, Anonymous. Haven't you grasped the idea that this is a blog of OPINIONS? Everyone is entitled to theirs: you may find the shirt is fabulous, and I'm willing to bet the Outblush staffers have posted stuff they LIKE from Oak before, but most of us don't. Hence the poll, which any fool can see is decidedly tongue in cheek. If you don't like it, go read some other blog. Buh-BYE!
Marie, you just made my Monday.
P.S. Anonymous sure goes to extremes to both hide him/herself and (try to) make us feel sh*tty by listing his/her email address as something extremely rude towards us. It's obv fake, but the thought that went into the comment and all speaks to a lot of anger that needs to be managed. Or a troll, same thing.
Oh, surprise, surprise... Hiding behind a stupid fake email address... Well, Outblush, you've still got a fan in me! I heart Doubtblush - they always make me spit diet coke on my keyboard!
Oh go scowl at some happy people Anonymous. I mean, you'd still be unnecessarily wasting your (clearly unfulfilled) time, but at least you'd be getting some fresh air, right?
Outblush, I agree with Marie, Doubtblush always makes me laugh. Coz honestly? That shirt is beyond ridiculous.

I have a MacBookPro (MacBookPro5,4) with the DVI output connection and I can't seem to get it to connect to my Dell Monitor. I've tried using Detect displays and made sure the monitor is using the DVI input. It says there's no power coming from the cable and enters power save. Detect Displays does nothing. Any ideas?
A few steps to try:
Try a different cable
If you get success with one of these then the problem probably lies with whatever you left out, after that you'll have to try combinations of the above.

The first Citizen of the Year ceremony was held in 1981, and since then, the Park City Rotary Club has named honorees that exemplify the motto "service over self."
Abby McNulty of the Park City Education Foundation and Summit County Councilor Kim Carson both said kind words about Hickey who was the recipient of the Volunteer Citizen of the Year award.
"He is incredibly devoted to making this world a better place and making this community a better place," said McNulty. "He is unbelievably hard-working, and I cannot say that enough."
Hickey began his volunteer service about eight years ago with the "Men of McPolin," an attempt to get fathers more involved in schools. He is now a member of the Park City School District Board of Education, on which he will serve as President for the 2013-14 school year.
"We have a great school district and great people working in the district," said Hickey. "I just truly appreciate this."
Sister Mary Ann Pajakowski , Education Director of Holy Cross at St. Mary's of the Assumption Catholic Church was named Professional Citizen of the Year for her work with the Latino and immigrant community of Park City.
Several Rotary Club members and Sister Suzanne Brennan spoke about Pajakowski's dedication to the minority community and the impact of her work.
"We see her joy of being alive and bringing people together, and we are grateful for her open mind and open heart," said Brennan. "She sees that somebody has a need and also sees that somebody has a resource."
Pajakowski, a third-generation immigrant from Poland, spoke about her personal connection to the immigrant community and her appreciation of the support from the city.
"In terms of being a citizen, I think it's possible to give back," said Pajakowski. "It's possible to do more than just deliver services but to value the people involved in the services."
The Rotary Club will celebrate Park City's mining heritage with its annual parade on Historic Main Street on Monday, Sept. 2, and Hickey and Pajakowski will serve as Co-Grand Marshals.

Basketball ex-wives and girlfriends Wives premiered Sunday on VH1 and during the promotion rounds for the show, Shaunie O'Neal made some interesting comments about fidelity in the NBA to the morning radio show, "Big Boy's Neighborhood."
"I think that I do know one that is faithful. I mean [know one], personally, personally," Shaunie O'Neal said. "If someone made me bet on who is faithful, I'd say Grant Hill."
Former Orlando Magic forward Grant Hill has been married to R&B singer Tamia since 1999 and the couple has two children.
The radio crew pressed Shaunie O'Neal as to who she would "bet" was being faithful to their significant others.
"LeBron James?"
"I wouldn't bet," Shaunie O'Neal responded breaking into laughter. "I'm not saying he does, but I wouldn't put…"
"Dwyane Wade?"
O'Neal didn't verbally respond, but she gave an Ochocinco "child please" glance toward the morning crew.
Given the latest breakup news of "nice guy" San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker and wife, actress Eva Longoria, infidelity among professional athletes isn't exactly shocking information. But it is interesting to hear someone from the inner NBA circle be so candid about relationships over the past year.
No one suspects the fidelity rate among professional athletes, in this case the NBA, is particularly high. But Grant Hill can't be in that small of a case study for faithful NBA husbands. Right?

Brave Michael Douglas' cancer fight
- From: Daily Mail
- October 05, 2010
BRAVE Michael Douglas continued to defy his cancer to carry on with normal life as he walked his daughter to school in New York today.
The 66-year-old actor is undergoing gruelling treatment to fight his throat cancer, which doctors have told him he has an 80 per cent chance of survival.
As Douglas concentrates on regaining his health, his friend Danny Devito headed to Zurich to pick up a prestigious award on his behalf.
DeVito, who co-starred with Douglas in Romancing the Stone and Jewel of the Nile, accepted the Golden Icon Award on behalf of his friend at the Zurich Film Festival.
Despite the actor's illness, DeVito kept things light-hearted, telling the audience: "Michael is so strong. He gets better and better with every movie he makes.
"So that's why I tell him to work more."
Last week Douglas's wife Catherine Zeta-Jones abandoned plans to watch the Ryder Cup after attending the grand opening ceremony.
On Wednesday evening Zeta-Jones had said that her husband was 'doing great, given the circumstances.
She said: 'Michael's not travelling with me this weekend. He's just finishing up his treatment.
'He's holding up very, very well and everyone could not be happier with the progress. He's doing fine thanks.
'He's strong and the doctors are so happy and he's just about to complete - what anyone who's gone through it knows - a pretty gruelling eight weeks.'
While Zeta-Jones would normally have stayed with her husband to watch the golf - both love the sport - she then flew home the following morning to be with him and their two children Carys, seven, and Dylan, ten.
The Oscar-winning actress has also pulled out of a new film role so she could spend time with her husband during his health battle.
Zeta-Jones, 40, had been due to play Vivien Leigh in the film My Week With Marilyn alongside Kenneth Branagh and Michelle Williams - a part she was said to be eager to take.

Thoughts of health and happiness and sent your way Mr Douglas...
JMP of Townsville Posted at 7:35 AM October 06, 2010
Tracey.....I don't think the paparazzi gave Michael Douglas the throat cancer....I'm pretty sure the cigars and cigarettes might have played a vital role in his illness. Don't distort the blame here. The paparazzi are a pain in the ass, but they're not the cause of all that is wrong in the world.
been there Posted at 12:31 AM October 06, 2010
Good luck Michael, I survived throat cancer 12 years now. Laryngeal throat cancer is a beast. ( I presume that is what you have as you were a heavy smoker, as I was) I had to have my voicebox removed. Not nice, nowadays treatment is more advanced and with a bit of luck you will survive this with your voice in tact. I am thinking of you and what you are going through.

charred corn tacos with zucchini-radish slaw

Charred Corn Tacos with Zucchini-Radish Slaw
Corn filling adapted from David Schuttenberg
The space between "seasoned vegetable side dish" and "taco dinner" can be filled with whatever delights you. It could be storebought or tomatotillo salsa, hot sauce, cilantro, sour cream or Mexican crema, diced tomatoes, salsa fresca, diced pickled red onions, pickled jalapenos, shredded cabbage or a green onion slaw, avocado wedges, grated cheddar or jack or a crumbly, salty cheese and maybe a bib, especially if you have designs on using these all together. Keeping your favorites on hand means that all you need to cook in a pinch is the filling.
To bulk these up further, you might stir in some cooked and drained black beans. But we found them pretty shockingly filling without the beans.
1/2 pound red radishes (from about 2/3 of a bundle with stems and leaves), trimmed
1 small (4 to 5 ounces) zucchini, long and narrow if you can find it
2 limes
4 ears corn, husks removed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus additional if blistering tacos in skillet
1 medium white onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons chopped epazote (if you can find it), cilantro or pasley (for the cilantro-averse) leaves (optional)
1/2 cup (2 1/2 ounces or 70 grams) crumbled cotija cheese (or another salty, crumbly cheese such as ricotta salata or feta)
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
10 to 12 small (6-inch) soft corn tortillas
Cut radishes and zucchini into tiny matchsticks with a mandoline. If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a peeler to peel thick ribbons down the long side of the zucchini. Stack the ribbons and cut them crosswise into thin matchsticks. Cut the radishes into a similar shape by hand. Toss radishes and zucchini together. Squeeze the juice of half a lime over the radish and season with salt to taste. Add more lime juice if desired. Set aside.
Remove toddlers from the kitchen. Over a hot grill or an open gas-stove flame char two of the ears of corn until well-blackened but not completely burnt. If you're using the burner method, you'll probably, quickly, notice that corn likes to pop and snap, occasionally spraying you with splats of corn. It's a little scary, which is I why I suggest you remove anyone small and easily harmed before you begin. However, I found the charred corn flavor to be completely worth the scare and hope you do too.
Remove cobs from heat, and when cool enough to handle, shave off kernels using a large knife and reserve. Remove kernels from remaining two ears of corn.
Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat. Melt the butter and oil together and once hot, add the onion. Cook the onion for about 5 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and cook another minute. Add the raw corn kernels and sauté until corn is just cooked through, about three to five minutes. Turn heat to high, add the charred kernels of corn to the mixture, and toss to combine until heated through. Squeeze the juice of one lime over the corn mixture, and use the juice to scrape up any stuck bits. Season the corn mixture with salt and chili powder. Stir in chopped herbs, if using.
You can heat your tortillas one of two ways. You can wrap the whole stack in foil and place it in a warm (250 degrees) oven for 15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients. However, I prefer to get a nice blister on them before filling them. Coat the bottom of a cast-iron skillet with olive oil and wipe it out so on the thinnest slick remains. Heat the skillet on high. Once hot, cook a tortilla for about 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side, until lightly blistered. Repeat with remaining tortillas but if your skillet is well-seasoned, no need to repeat the oiling process.
Fill each taco with a few small spoonfuls of the corn mixture. Top with a spoonful of crumbled cheese and a bit of the radish-zucchini slaw. Serve with an extra lime wedge on the side (you'll have half a lime left to slice up), and whatever fixings you like (sour cream, avocado wedges, etc. See above).

Lots Of Space
By Shphrd
from Ontario, Canada
We have had this Fridge for 3 weeks and it is great. The only issue i have with it is that the dairy/cheese drawer has to have both doors open to be able to pull out the drawer. It should have been made into 2 or 3 drawers so you only have to open one door.

I bought this refrigerator 4 yrs ago. It failed in the first 6 months. We had a service engineer come out and he told us that this was first generation dual evaporator design and that whirlpool knew there were design flaws and went and marketed anyway. Whirlpool ordered a spare evaporator and they fixed it at their expense. Then the electronic panel on the bottom drawer failed. We did not report it.Then the freezer failed. Whirlpool came in and fixed it. Last week The fridge failed. It is not cooling to 34F that I have set it at. This time I will probably have to pay. I am thinking of putting it in the trash and calling it a day. My older refrigerator ..a GE model is still running after 16+ yrs
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Failing in three years
By Bbe
from pA
Poor product. Three times in 9 months I have had so much frost build up behind freezer that drawers will not shut. Doors tightened first time, new control plan next time. That failed in less than one month. Bought extended warranty through hhgregg. "Fast reliable service" means takes 8 days from first call to come, and another 8 days to get replacement part. Won't deal with either Whorlpool or hhgregg again. Lemon obviously. From other reviews, looks like it is my total loss.
Too Loud !
By Lean
from Miami
The refrigerator is ok.... but it makes to much noise when the compressor stars operating.At night or in quiet moments I can hear the noise in all the rooms of my home.Very annoying.
French Door Refrigerator
By Homeowner
from Virginia Beach, Virginia
We have had the refrigerator for less than 2 years and have had three service calls. Very loud noise and extra ice forms in freezer. Currently trying to receive service from Whirlpool.

Bad experience like others
By Nick
from Louisville,Ky
3 years and completely dead. Spoiled food, water leaking everywhere. Contacted Whirlpool and they were indifferent. Extended warranty worthless since UNIX can't be fixed. I'll never buy Whirlpool again

Buyers beware
By Jewel
from Ohio
I bought this in Sept 2012 Ice maker leaked twice. Stopped cooling 2 days ago and has a major problem with the closed system. There is a special notice to correct the cooling problem that will cost half as much as I paid for the refrigerator and system may leak again. Great design on the outside, very unreliable performance.
By Toby
from Trinidad and Tobago
I was happy with the product until it started to build up ice behind the cripster. I called custermer service but there was not a tech to advise me. I have to keep defrosting the ice. I think it needs a new sensor .

Jay Z knows one thing for sure, he has built powerful brands: Jay Z, Roc Nation and Shawn Carter. The strength of a brand's equity directly affects its ability to innovate and traverse markets into new adjacencies. His latest brand move into Roc Nation Sports is positioned in the market to further grow athletes' brands.
Perhaps Jay Z's small ownership stake in the Brooklyn Nets basketball team opened his eyes to the world of sports and the opportunities available to build stronger brands for athletes. He is planning to become a certified sports agent and recently created the sub-brand Roc Nation Sports, signing on the Yankee's elite second baseman, Robinson Cano. True to his music roots, Jay Z raps on his "Crown" album "Robinson Cano, you coming with me." ( Nice little score! )
Interestingly, if Jay Z wants to go on to represent basketball players, he will have to sell his stake in the Nets in accordance with NBA rules. That move would surely be a sign that he is broadening beyond a pilot effort in baseball to engage in deals across the sports world.
The Roc-Nation Sports proposition is seductive for the US athlete, who sees Jay Z as a master of brand building on a global scale. Today there is considerable tension inside the NFL between players and owners regarding the freedom an athlete has over his own identity and brand. When athletes sign to a team, their contract significantly constrains ownership of their personal brand. This limits what they can do, including in the world of social media. There are players and lawyers actively raising their voices around this issue. No doubt we will be hearing more debate on this subject of brand ownership, since players are trying to maximize their income at the peak of their short careers.
It may be that Jay Z had the foresight to recognize a shifting sports landscape and grasped its potential in a global arena. Instead of viewing entertainment as the only territory for his brand, he chose to look further and test the strength of his brand and its leverage in other markets. There are some points to extract from this story for any business when it comes to identifying and acting on opportunities outside of your current market boundaries:
1. Expand the scale of the brand– by transforming athletes, from star status in their local geography, into global celebrities (think David Beckham).
2. Leverage the established brand in market cross-over–by using the Jay Z music brand to drive awareness, such as the lyric example described above.
3. Create a culturally relevant "cool" factor –by driving a hot, athlete brand that people want to connect to and follow in sports.
4. Build an international fan base– by using social media to change the scale of the athlete's celebrity, which in turn impacts their future endorsement earnings.
5. Learn in small ways–by starting with one or two athletes Jay Z will learn the sports landscape, which has its own unique culture and codes that must be understood.
Try a little brand batting practice with your team. Create a list of your brand's competencies and consider whether your brand could compete effectively in other markets based on the elements or attributes of your brand's equity. If your brand dimensions are currently limited to your market definition, then you have an opportunity to build other assets, with an eye to where you could expand.
This exercise is useful to stimulate dialogue within your team to identify those adjacent areas and determine whether they are financially attractive to consider or pilot. Jay Z is using a test and learn strategy, rather than swinging for a home run. You can do the same in your business to innovate beyond the current constraints and open up your field of play.

Volcanalis - Recap
<-- Previous Episode
Next Episode -->
The Demon came home and he declared that the air was not clear. "I smell the flesh of man."
In the forest outside of Portland near Mt. Hood, Jill Prembrey is surprised to discover active fumaroles. As the geologist for Eon Industries collects samples, Jill records everything and notes that the existence of the fumaroles is extremely rare. She hears someone moving in the forest behind her and goes back to her truck. A man, Marcus Hemming, grabs her pack of rocks and tries to take it away, insisting it doesn't belong to her. Jill nails him with pepper spray, grabs the rocks, and drives off. She calls her boss, Thom Evans, and tells him what happened as she comes back in.
On the road behind Jill, Marcus transforms into a bull-like Wesen, a Taureus-Armenta.
At the station, Nick and Wu both hover over Hank as he works at his desk. Renard comes over and they all three tell him to get out for three weeks. They figure that Hank is stalling and wheel him toward the door for his first vacation in four years. Everyone waves and then goes back to work.
Juliette returns home and looks around nervously. She makes her way to the kitchen but turns, startled, when she has another memory-flash of Nick cooking at the stove. More memories of Nick appear, all overlapping, and Juliette screams at them all to stop before running out the door to her car and driving away. Another Nick-memory appears and Juliette loses control of the car when she tries to hit it.
In Vienna, Adalind is in her hotel room vomiting because of her pregnancy. Frau Pech arrives and Adalind reluctantly lets her in. She tells Adalind that they have a meeting with the Zigeunersprache: the queen of the Schwarzwald Gypsies. Adalind refuses to go but Frau Pech says that she needs to go if she wants to learn the true value of motherhood and find out how much her child is worth.
When Nick hears about Juliette's accident, he goes to the hospital and she mistakes him for another memory at first. Once he convinces her that he's real, Juliette insists that Rosalee did something to her and now she sees Nick everywhere. She tells Nick that she can't see him anymore and Nick reluctantly leaves.
When Jill arrives home that night, the house shakes briefly and she assumes that it's a tremor. She hears something burning in the dining room and goes to investigate. The glassware has melted and the wallpaper is starting to char. A flaming creature lunges out of the next room and grabs her...
Nick is at Bud's place watching soccer with Bud and Eddie. They soon realize that he's not paying attention and sympathize, saying that they've all been dumped. Nick isn't comforted and says that he's calling it a night. Before he can leave, Nick gets a call about Jill's death and heads to her house to investigate.
Once she's released from the hospital, Juliette goes to see Pilar, who immediately realizes that her memory problems are getting worse.
Nick arrives at the Prembrey house and Wu brings him up to speed. Jill was supposed to pick up a co-worker but didn't show, and the co-worker called it in. Jill has been hideously burned, hand marks branded into her arms and neck. There are the same burn marks on the back door and everything is melted. Wu finds Jill's camera and they play back the video from Mt. Hood.
Juliette describes her problem to Pilar and has her drink a drug that will help her focus. She explains that as Juliette's missing memories are returning, they're too much for her to handle. Pilar tells Juliette to choose the memory that she wants and try to be in the moment with it. To do so, Juliette must go home despite her reluctance or she'll have no future.
Frau Pech drives Adalind to the Gypsy camp and brings her to the Zigeunersprache, Stefania Veduva Popescu. Adalind introduces herself and Stefania escorts them into her tent. She explains that to establish the value of the child, she must determine its bloodline... and there's only one way to be sure. Stefania has her sons hold Adalind while they take some of the blood of the child with a large syringe.
The next day, Nick and Wu visit Thom Evans at Eon. He explains that Jill was one of their best workers and gives them the location where she was working. Thom also tells them about the attack that Jill reported and says that they reported it to the state park police. Nick confirms that Jill was taking rock samples and measuring chemical contents. Thom drives them out to the site. As they go to the fumarole, he admits that they've had a few protestors. The vent is still active and Thom warns that it's a sign that the volcano is becoming active.
Nick senses that something is wrong but can't pinpoint it. Thom pockets a few rocks and they go back to his truck. When they get there, they discover that someone has thrown rocks through the truck windows. As Wu calls it in, Nick hears something again and goes into the woods. He finds Marcus and orders him not to move, and the Wesen woges into his Taureus-Armenta form. After a moment he turns and runs, and Nick chases after him while calling for Wu. Wu catches up to them and tackles Marcus, and as they secure him he screams that they're all going to die because they didn't show respect.
Stefania tests the blood and tells Adalind that she was right about the child being a Royal... and they don't have to kill her. The Zigeunersprache offers a half million Euros for a boy, 750 if it's a girl. Frau Pech points out that they can get more for it on the open market, but Adalind says that what she wants are her powers restored. Stefania warns her that it may not be possible and Adalind threatens to abort the child. Frau Pech advises her to take the money but Adalind stands firm.
Back at the station, Nick and Renard go over Marcus' record. He used to be an archaeologist and has been arrested numerous times for assault and property damage. Marcus disappeared 15 years ago when he began his crimes, and his wife died the same way as Jill. Nick figures that Marcus is involved with Jill's death, but admits that he didn't recognize the man's Wesen identity. Renard offers to help and Nick reluctantly agrees.
Juliette returns home and the memories start again. She goes outside and reviews Pilar's instructions, and sees another Nick-memory coming up with some boxes. Juliette tries to remember what she did and repeats the words she said on the day he moved in with her. Together they replay the day and how they both asked the other if they had second thoughts.
Nick and Renard tell Marcus that they know what he really is. Marcus insists that he was trying to warn Jill that she was taking "his" property, and says that they don't know what he is. The Wesen says that the creature he's trying to stop from rising is Volcanalis and he wants his revenge. Nick asks about Marcus' wife and the former archaeologist says that he couldn't save her, either. The two officers step out and Renard points out that in mythology, Volcanalis was a priest of Vulcan, the Roman God of Fire. Nick wonders if they're dealing with a fiery Wesen and they both agree to handle it off the books. As Wu comes in, the building shakes from a tremor. Once it stops, the sergeant tells them that there have been several attacks on people who took rocks from volcano sites on the Ring of Fire surrounding the Pacific. According to legend, the theft of sacred stones results in death. Once Wu leaves, Nick remembers that Thom took some rocks and they head out to visit him.
That night, Thom is at home eating supper when he hears something outside. Assuming it's his wife, home earlier, Thom checks but doesn't see anyone. When he goes back to the kitchen, he discovers that the rocks he was studying are gone. The water in a coffee pot starts boiling, the lights go out, and the fiery creature grabs Thom. Nick and Renard arrive and tell Volcanalis to drop his victim. The Wesen casually tosses Thom away and they open fire, but the bullets have no effect. Volcanalis walks out past them and by the time Nick and Renard recover from the heat and smoke, the Wesen has made its escape. Nick chases after him but he escapes into the sewers.
Juliette continues to relive the memories of the day that Nick moved in with her. She goes to get him a beer and realizes the refrigerator is now full, and comes back to reality. Looking around, Juliette realizes that she isn't haunted by memories of Nick.
At Marie's trailer, Nick and Eddie go through the journals. Nick finds a reference to the Taureus-Armenta, which describes the Wesen as stubborn and courageous. Monroe finds an entry on Volcanalis but it's in Latin. They take it to Renard to translate, and he reads bout how many of the people of Pompeii took rocks from the volcano. They all turned up dead, charred almost beyond recognition, and the Grimm escaped just as Vesuvius erupted. They wonder if Volcanalis had anything to do with Mt. St. Helens, and Nick suggests that they consult with Marcus.
Nick and Renard show Marcus the sketches of Volcanalis and he immediately confirms that it's the Wesen at Mt. Hood. They plan to pick up more of the rocks and lure Volcanalis out, and want Marcus to come with them. He doesn't know where Volcanalis can be found or how it finds its victims, and there's nothing they can do against the creature. Renard asks if he wants to get revenge on his wife's killer, and Marcus vows to die if he can take Volcanalis with him. Nick gets an idea and asks how cold they can make it.
Nick, Renard, Eddie, and Marcus go to the fumarole and take the rocks closest to the vent. They drive back down the mountain, towing a flatbed holding a covered device, and go to a sheet metal company. Inside, the group puts the rocks in the middle of the factory and then set up their cargo: three tanks of liquid nitrogen. Marcus stands near the rocks, acting as bait, while the others prepare to spray Volcanalis when he arrives.
The temperature in the factory starts to rise and the floor shakes. A nearby manhole cover turns red-hot and then explodes upward, and Volcanalis emerges. Marcus dares it to come after him and once it's in position, the others spray it with liquid nitrogen. The Wesen freezes solid and Nick offers an axe handle to Marcus. The Wesen takes it and smashes Volcanalis apart. They look at the pieces and the creature's eye look up at them for a moment before fading away.
Juliette opens up her drawer and puts up all of the photos of her and Nick that she's hid away since her coma. She finds the engagement ring that Nick gave her, contemplates it, and then goes downstairs to the couch. Concentrating, Juliette remembers when Nick proposed to her and smiles.

Charlotte Perriand Accordo Tablefor CassinaCreated by Charlotte Perriand in 1985 as a single piece for the retrospective exhibition that the Musée des Arts-Décoratifs dedicated to her career, this table's simplicity of form is presented in close relation to the design of the wool rug that accompanies it.
The unique characteristics provided by the permutation of compositional elements is based on a geometric system of combinations that further enhances the clean-honed, primary forms of the table, which appears to be suspended: a sculptural, visually dynamic form, the fulcrum and source of an atmospheric space that invites convivial enjoyment.
