Musical Tribute
Harvey Pekar wrote underground comics, yes, but he was also a critic for the nation's top jazz magazine, Downbeat. He once dubbed Ernie Krivda "one of the greatest jazz tenor saxophonists in the world," seeing the local bandleader as a kindred spirit, another international talent stubbornly rooted in Cleveland. A year after Pekar's death, Krivda responds with the bebop album Blues For Pekar. Flush with a $20,000 arts grant, Krivda hired the Detroit Connection, some of the Motor City's best jazz musicians. In five classic bebop tunes and two originals, Krivda's sax solos swing, leap and tumble, giving improvisation new vitality. Harvey would admire the artistry. erniekrivda.com

2012 Annual Report
1)develop a measurement/modeling technique to identify components of water use in temperate and semi-arid vineyard systems,.
2)define strategies for excess water removal and/or water conservation in vineyards for moist temperate regions of the Southeastern U.S., and.
3)define strategies for water conservation in vineyards for semi-arid regions (Israel). Activities during the third year of this project were primarily with regard to Objectives 1 and 2. New measurement systems developed specifically for the conditions in the vineyards of this study are in operation. These are coupled with measurements of evaporation and climate parameters above and below the vines and in the soil at both study sites. Data analysis has begun although adjustments to measurement techniques continue to be made to optimize system performance. Data from these measurements will enable testing of a mathematical model to predict how much evaporation occurs from the vines and how much from the grass and soil and how management practices can optimize water use by the vines. These predictions and data from the next growing season will be used to address Objective 3 that will lead to the development of strategies to improve water management in vineyards. The project Prinipcal Investigators met at North Carolina State University in July for data review, to set a strategy for data analysis and manuscript preparation, and to visit the North Carolina field site.

Sugars in fresh green peas begin converting to starch as soon as they are picked from the vine. Preserve them as soon as they are harvested, or within 24 hours after purchase from a market. The best food preservation methods for shelled green peas are freezing, salting (brining), drying, and canning. Preserve sugar snap pea pods and snow pea pods by freezing or salting.
- One pound of green peas is equivalent to 3 to 4 cups pods, 1 to 1½ cups shelled peas, or 1 to 1½ cups purée.
- One pound of snow peas or sugar snap peas is equivalent to 2 to 3 dry pints (4 to 6 cups trimmed).
How to prepare peas
- Shell green peas by splitting the pods and scooping out the peas. Discard or compost pods. Snow peas may be shelled or left whole.
- For snow peas or sugar snap peas, you may want to remove the string. To remove the string, trim or pinch one end and pull down the inside curve to remove the string.
- Best longest storage life, steam-blanch prepared peas 1 to 2 minutes (until tender-crisp). Cool in ice water (10-30 minutes) and drain in a colander.
How to freeze peas
Spread prepared, blanched, and drained shelled peas or pea pods on a parchment lined tray. Freeze 30 minutes, or until solid. Pack into freezer- safe containers.
How to preserve salted peas
Salting vegetables is an old-fashioned method that still works great. Use only young, very fresh peas. Prepare shelled peas or pea pods and then weigh peas before blanching to determine amount of salt to use. For every pound of prepared peas, measure 3.2 ounces (1⁄3 cup) pickling salt. Blanch and drain peas; then pat dry. In a large bowl, toss peas and pickling salt until evenly mixed. Pack 1 pound peas with salt into a sterilized 1-quart glass jar (or 5 pounds into a gallon crock), leaving 1 to 2 inches headspace. Press peas without crushing to extract liquid to cover vegetables. Weight the peas to keep them submerged, and cover the container. Set aside in a cool, dark place. In 24 hours, if the liquid does not cover the food completely, prepare a 20 percent brine using 7.7 ounces (3⁄4 cup) pickling salt per quart of water. Add enough brine to cover the peas generously. Cover and weight again to keep submerged. Cure (pickle) the vegetables 2 to 4 weeks, and then store in a cold cellar or refrigerator up to 6 months. If white scum appears on the surface, remove it. If peas become moldy, soft, or develop a disagreeable odor, they have spoiled and must be discarded.
How to dry shelled peas (or beans)
If you grow beans or peas, simply dry them on the vine at the end of the season. They may need additional oven or dehydrator drying after harvest. To dry indoors, preheat oven or food dehydrator to 130°F to 140°F. Prepare, blanch, and drain shelled peas or beans; pat dry before placing on drying trays. Dry until vegetables rattle. Cool until no longer warm and then store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place up to 2 months. Freeze for longer storage.
Drying also works well for pea pods, if you want to enjoy then as a dried vegetable snack, or to add to soups and stews.
Rehydrate dried vegetables by covering with boiling water and soaking 20 to 30 minutes, or until they have plumped up to their original size. Use in favorite recipes calling for fresh or frozen. Or, grind dry peas into a powder (using a coffee grinder reserved for spices and vegetables). Add boiling water to make pea soup, enhance with cream or butter, if desired.
Recipes for enjoying shelled peas, snap peas, and snow peas
Pea "hummus" spread (2 cups spread or 25 appetizer servings): Place in the jar of a blender or food processor 1 cup fresh, frozen, or rehydrated dried peas, 1 cup soaked dried or drained canned chickpeas, 1/4 cup plain yogurt, 3 tablespoons chopped onion or chives, 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley or mint (or 1 teaspoon dried), 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 1/2 to 1 teaspoon (or to taste) ground cumin or mace or curry powder, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Process until smooth. Scoop into a bowl and drizzle with 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil. Spread on plain or garlic toast as an appetizer or accompaniment to soup.
Cream of pea soup (4 servings): Heat 2 tablespoons butter or oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Saute 2 finely chopped medium shallots for 3 minutes. Pour 2 cups water and 3 cups fresh, frozen, or rehydrated dried peas. Add 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper.Cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes, or until the peas are tender. Puree soup using a blender or food processor. Return to the saucepan and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with a drizzle of cream or dollop of sour cream or plain yogurt. If desired, add a sprinkling of freshly chopped parsley, chives, green onions, or bacon and a few croutons.
Pasta with peas and cream (4 servings): Sauté 4 sliced green onions over medium heat for 2 minutes, reduce heat to medium low, cover, and let onion sweat for 5-8 minutes, or until it has reduced greatly in volume and is very tender. Add 2 cups pasta cooking water and 1/2 cup cream. Raise heat to simmer liquids gently for 8-10 minutes, or until reduced by half. Add 2 cups fresh, frozen, or rehydrated dried peas and simmer 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Add 4 cups cooked pasta (or 1 pound fresh) and toss to coat pasta evenly with the cream sauce. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup grated Parmesan or pecorino cheese and freshly ground black pepper. Variation: add 1 cup of cooked, diced chicken meat or ham along with the peas.
Beef or shrimp with peas (4 servings): In a small bowl, stir together 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice wine, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch. In a wok or skillet heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium high heat and 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root and 1 tablespoon minced garlic for 30 seconds. Add 1 pound thinly sliced beef round steak or 1 pound peeled and deveined medium shrimp, and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Beef should be nicely browned or shrimp should be pink on all sides. Stir in 2 cups fresh, frozen, or rehydrated shelled peas or snow peas, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or sesame seeds, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the soy sauce mixture and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer until the sauce is thickens. Serve over rice or noodles.

The Many Different Ways We Smooch
Kissing is an important part of our relationships. Whether it's a sign of affection, desire, intimacy, or romance, kissing helps us express our feelings and show our love to one another. However, not all kisses are created equal. Here are ten different types of kisses:
Affectionate Kissing
These are the kisses that bond us to our loved ones. Kisses can help release the brain chemical oxytocin, which bonds people and creates warm feelings; so when you kiss a loved one, whether it's your mate, your child, or maybe even a furry friend, it can help you feel a special connection.
Kissing as a Greeting
Kissing is a greeting in many parts of the world. The French and British kiss once on each cheek, and the Dutch follow suit. In Italy and the Mediterranean, it's not unusual for friends to greet one another with kisses, including on the mouth. And, in Arab cultures, men kiss one another on the cheek to say hello.
PDA Kissing
Sometimes you want to kiss your mate while out in public, but you don't want to be too intimate — or take it so far that it might offend someone. Enter PDA (public display of affection) kissing: Those little PG-rated kisses that you sneak in over dinner at a restaurant when you think no one is looking.
Erotic Kissing
Erotic kissing needs no explanation…you know it when you see it (or when you feel it!). Erotic kissing is often a key part of foreplay and helps to increase your desire and awaken your sexual response.
Butterfly Kissing
Butterfly kisses are so popular that there is even a song written about them! To give your partner a butterfly kiss, just lean in close and let your eyelashes tickle his cheek.
Maintenance Kissing
These are the kisses that occur when you are rushing out the door on a Monday morning. You don't have time for a deep, intimate make-out session, so you just give your mate a loving kiss before heading out to face the day. They might not be as romantic as other types of kisses, but they are just as important when it comes to keeping your sexual connection alive.
Familial Kissing
These are the kisses we share with family: some out of an overflowing of love (such as when you shower your child with kisses) and some out of obligation (such as when you let Great Aunt Martha kiss you with her bright-pink lipstick).
French Kissing
French kissing is often considered the ultimate in passionate kissing and foreplay. Perfecting the art of the French kiss and using just the right amount of tongue isn't always easy, but most people are happy to practice until they get it right!
Bonobo Kissing
Did you know that bonobos (formerly known as pygmy chimpanzee) are highly sexual creatures and that they actually swap deep, passionate kisses while seducing their mates? It just goes to show how deeply ingrained our need for touch and kissing is in our DNA.
Fairy-Tale Kissing
Kissing is often the way to break evil spells in fairy tales. From Sleeping Beauty to Beauty and the Beast, kissing is the key to defeating evil and finding a happy ending. Life might not be a fairy tale, but that doesn't mean we all couldn't benefit from more kisses!

There are times when it seems the moderators at Facebook live in the Twilight Zone. On Wednesday, administrators of the anti-Islam page "Islam Exposed" discovered that a post asking visitors to refrain from using hateful language was pulled. The reason, Facebook said, is the post allegedly violates their community standards. Moreover, the administrator who posted the message received a 30-day ban, Examiner.com was told in an exclusive interview.
"This is not a Muslim hate page, as stated in our mission here. We hate the ideology of Islam and the brutality it perpetrates and condones," the post read. Administrators also asked that visitors not use derogatory or threatening language, saying it does not help their mission to educate visitors.
"These types of posts and terms only detract from our ability to effectively raise awareness and attract those who are wavering on both sides of the fence and are seeking the truth," administrators said.
They even suggested those who felt they could not refrain from using such language should not post, but rather "observe and learn."
"However, until that time, we will reserve the right to remove the comments and posts of those who don't comply. We ask for your understanding and cooperation," the post said.
Facebook, however, said this message violated their standards, but did not explain why.
In short, the social media giant said a post encouraging visitors to abide by Facebook's standards violates their standards.
Administrators agreed the social media site is targeting their page for being critical of Islam. Last Wednesday, we reported the site was briefly unpublished after administrators received death threats. Facebook relented, saying the page was pulled in error. Since then, administrators have been harassed with mysterious reports of non-existent messages and comments being yanked. Facebook, however, did not say what had been pulled.
Page administrators also said they believe Facebook has targeted them because of their stand on Islam. Worse yet, they say the social media site is not even bothering to check the reports against them, some of which they say are being fabricated.
"We believe that Facebook is no longer a viable platform to disseminate news and information," they said. "It has systematically bullied and harassed us into silence and is controlling the information and the narrative that is conveyed to the general public. Unfortunately, it is that same public which lacks the appropriate knowledge and information to formulate new opinions and ideas and has the most to gain from pages such as ours but that loses the most."
Facebook did not respond to our request for comments.

This book is a series of photo profiles of people who in later life have found and are following there life's ambition. People who did not retire from something but to something.
The photographer, Al Gerk, is a retired Engineering and Management professional living in the downtown district of Huntington Beach. Dr. Gerk has returned to his first love, photography, after almost a forty year absence. In all of his work he is supported by his muse, Stella (who happens to be his wife) who is an active participant in the work. Today the digital age has revolutionized the technology of photography but the most important "Eye of the Photographer" remains essentially unchanged. "I want to share the beauty that surrounds all of us and take photographs that people pause, think, and want to come back to again and again. For this it remains that one needs the right aesthetic concept and then be in the right place, at right time before the power of the new technology is of any value."

Volkswagen is hard at work to extend the new Golf VII family, and next in line is the Wagon version (a.k.a. 'Variant'), that our photographers have spotted during a hot weather testing in Southern Europe. Looking at these photos we can see that the new Golf Variant is almost aiming at the VW Passat in terms of size: it just looks really huge, doesn't it?
Anyway, the next Golf Variant will share the platform and drivetrains with the 'regular' Golf hatch, and hopefully we will also get to see a 'GTI' and a 'R' version of this body-type. The official unveiling of the model could happen at the next Geneva Motor Show in March 2013, but chances are we will get to know the final version of the car the following September at the IAA in Frankfurt, Germany.

"Evano The Terrible"
Reviewed by: George O'Connor (email@example.com)
Before the heroes can grasp what has happened, however, they see a group of robotic ships coming at them.
Elsewhere, Green Lantern and Superman meet as they save a commuter airplane from crashing. Superman becomes suspicious when he hears that Lantern and the rest of the League were all invited to Palmer's laboratory without him, especially when he can't find the rest of his team members.
Meanwhile, the rest of the League springs into action against the robotic ships. The Atom shows up after the League has vanquished their foes, and informs them that they are inside Superman's body, which has been invaded by aliens that are plotting to control Superman's brain for their own nefarious purposes.
Palmer reveals that he was forced to turn his shrinking ray on the Leaguers in the laboratory without explanation because he knew Superman was approaching... and if the Man of Steel had already been taken control of by the aliens, there was no way the Leaguers would have been able to stop him. With the League members miniaturized, the Atom had then led them into Superman's body where they could hope to sabotage the aliens' efforts.
Later, the League finds themselves at the alien's base, and J'onn does reconnaissance on the command center. J'onn watches as the aliens try to test their control over Superman by having him K.O. Green Lantern. They fire a synaptic discharge and the Flash chases it up Superman's nerves, bashing the electrical stream with Hawkgirl's mace before it can reach its destination.
Superman screams out in pain as the confused aliens try again. The League invades a moment later and captures the leader, who tells them that they have controlled Superman's body so he can destroy the tyrant, Evano the Terrible, who apparently destroyed an exploration vehicle of their species that crash landed on Earth.
The Justice League insists that they don't know who this Evano is, and the whole matter is later cleared up when the Green Lantern tracks down Evan Offenhauser, an owner of a collectibles store in suburban America. Evan reveals that as a child, he found a ship that he thought was a toy submarine and put it in water.
Recognizing that the entire incident has just been an unfortunate tragedy, the aliens set off for space, exploring in honor of the fallen crew.
Story - 4: This latest JL Adventure is a fun sci-fi story with an ironic twist ending. The Atom's inclusion, meanwhile, is a welcome one, even if his part doesn't seem very large (no pun intended). While I would have liked to see Superman really unleash on a few targets before the League gained control of the command center in his body, this was a taut, well-told tale that was engaging and enjoyable... though the premise of a miniature alien species being wiped out accidentally does remind me of part of Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy in which almost the exact same thing happened.
Art - 4: The quality seems to slowly decrease as the book progresses, but it remains good enough to award it a 4 rating. The first page is the most beautiful in the whole book, with the League members awaking unconscious. The use of perspective and layout on this page is terrific. As the rest of the tale goes on, there's some rather typical action shots and dialogue sequences, but for every mediocre page, there is another that is, if not exactly gorgeous, very nice.
Cover Art - 3: I've seen this cover a thousand times before, but that doesn't make it any less cool.

State stranding coordinator Bill McLellan
talking to UNCW students
This Florida manatee stranded last fall and was necropsied behind Dobo Hall on October 14, 2005 with volunteers from the stranding network. Planned necropsies like these provide an excellent forum for training and educating stranding volunteers on marine mammal biology and anatomy. Gross findings upon necropsy indicate that the manatee likely died from cold shock.

Do you have multiple smartphone and tablet devices in your home? Tired of running out of desk space when charging your mobile devices? Annoyed with the growing mess of cables about your house or office?
As a big fan of cable management - and having an organized desk - I got excited when I came across the Arq, a new Kickstarter project, which solves the problem of being able to charge multiple devices simultaneously while taking up a small footprint.
The Arq is a modular dock that provides the ability to charge multiple iOS and Android devices while being 'nested' so that it utilizes a smaller footprint on your desk or wherever you decide to charge your devices. The Arq provides the flexibility of arranging the docking stations in groups or being used individually.
The Arq is made of aluminum construction that's bead-blasted and anodized. Users can choose from Apollo Silver, Titan Red, or Aurora Black as the color for their dock.
According to B&A studio, the creators of the Arq:
"The Arq was inspired by the utility and space saving features of nesting furniture. CNC machined from aircraft grade aluminum, bead blasted and then anodized for an exquisite finish. Arq docks will compliment any environment you place them in to showcase your devices"
You can use either a Lightening or Micro USB charging cable with the Arq and the cables are easily swapped out (which you can see from the video). The Arq was designed with the ability to allow users to adjust the connector height from 0mm to 9mm which allows a device to sit on the docking station without putting any stress on the connector. Additionally, the adjustable connector height and adjustable back support pins allows you to charge a device even if it's in a case.
One additional useful feature of the Arq is the use of nano suction pads on the bottom of the docking station which allows it to be firmly anchored to smooth surfaces so that you can undock using one hand.

ALL HALLOWS EVE 2012 – GUEST AUTHOR: Lee Collins "Halloween" & Giveaway (ends 6pm GMT 31/10/12)
Halloween was not a priority holiday for me as a child. I enjoyed it well enough (a life-long penchant for sweets and dressing up has to begin at some point), but it never ranked among the A-list holidays. Those few, coveted spots were dominated by Christmas and birthdays because I loved toys more than candy. Halloween served as the local opener for the big show: it had its own appeal but mainly served to set the tone for the following acts. I didn't realize there was anything unusual about this until I got to college and realized that Halloween was an integral part of many childhoods, my girlfriend's among them.
My upbringing has a lot to do with this tragic downplaying of the year's best combination of eccentricity, hedonism, and terror. Growing up in a conservative Christian household doesn't leave much tolerance for any of Halloween's primary characteristics. Still, it wasn't as though my brother and I were forbidden from participating. On the contrary, we would select costume patterns from the fabric store each year, and my mother (an absolute wizard on the sewing machine) would dedicate hours to making those patterns a reality. Thus garbed in our homemade costumes, we would charge brazenly into the virulent cesspool that was the local elementary school's Corn Cob Festival. Said festival was exactly what you'd expect: a densely-packed collection of costumed children frantically running from one game to the next, exasperated parents a few steps behind. Candy bags hung from the hands of angels, devils, ghosts, princesses, witches, and (in the case of yours truly) a Dalmatian until they became too loaded with loot for an eight-year-old to manage. They would then find their way into the arms of their associated adults, adding to the burden of costume props, carnival maps, and perhaps a drop or two of the hot stuff to help the night pass more smoothly.
Surely a fantastic time for anyone unburdened by the self-consciousness puberty brings, so why wasn't this at the top of my yearly events? As I mentioned earlier, my parents were very conservative, and this mindset informed what they thought would be best for us growing up. Thus, our Halloween participation was bound by certain restrictions and preconceptions that colored the holiday in bleaker shades. For one, we weren't allowed to go as anything evil. This included the obvious ones—devils, vampires, werewolves, witches—and the odd ones like Ghostbusters, Disney villains, and Power Rangers. In a child's mind, the classification of costumes as "evil" transfers to the wearer of any such costume quite easily. Thus, when the Corn Cob Festival rolled around, I found myself questioning the alignment of my friends. How could seemingly good kids dress in lawful evil costumes? Did that mean they were really evil? Was it okay for me to crush on a girl if she dressed up like a witch? Although forgotten a week into November, such thoughts managed to make Halloween slightly sinister.
The other main element of unease came from my mother's insistence that we bring our pets indoors while we went trick-or-treating. People sacrificed household pets in Satanic rituals on Halloween, she said. This was in the early 1990's, so my seven-year-old self could not have checked Snopes even if I'd had the thought to question her. As it was, I did not. Therefore, I spent the time between houses with two main trains of thought running through my head: somebody may have kidnapped my dog and sacrificed her to Satan, and that somebody might live in the next house. Not entirely rational, perhaps, but it made sense to me. I had a very fearful and over-active imagination, you see.
When I was in the third grade, our church started hosting Harvest Festivals, which were essentially Halloween parties minus all evil stuff. It was also around this time that I stopped trick-or-treating. This took care of both problems rather handily, and late October became a simpler time of year (thereafter called "Harvest" and not "Halloween" in my house). However, this aversion toward all things horror continued well into high school. I saw my first horror film (Hannibal) when I was 16, and I was decidedly uncomfortable the whole time. I didn't see The Nightmare Before Christmas until I was in college. Somewhat ironically, it was my girlfriend who first introduced me—at 21 years of age—to the fantastic myriad of horror films available. The genre quickly became a favorite of mine, and I began consuming them with reckless abandon.
All this to say: Halloween may not be on equal footing with Christmas in terms of past fondness for me, but it has come into its own in recent years. I can't exactly go trick-or-treating anymore (not going for that particular kind of creepy, thank you), but I can still appreciate all of the blood-chilling books and movies that come out of hiding this time of year.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Lee Collins has spent his entire life in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains. Despite this (or perhaps because of it), he generally prefers to stay indoors reading and playing video games. As a child, he never realized that he could create video games for a living, so he chose to study creative writing at Colorado State University. Upon graduation, he worked as an editorial intern for a local magazine before securing a desk job with his alma mater.
Lee's short fiction has appeared in Ensorcelled andMorpheus Tales, the latter of which awarded him second place in a flash fiction contest. In 2009, a friend challenged him to participate in National Novel Writing Month, and the resulting manuscript became his debut novel, The Dead of Winter. It will be published in 2012, and the sequel, She Returns From War, arrives in 2013. In his spare minutes between writing and shepherding graduate students at his day job, Lee still indulges in his oldest passions: books and video games. He and his girlfriend live in Colorado with their imaginary corgi Fubsy Bumble.
ABOUT THE BOOK: The Dead of Winter (Cora Oglesby #1) – Cora and her husband hunt things – things that shouldn't exist. When the marshal of Leadville, Colorado, comes across a pair of mysterious deaths, he turns to Cora to find the creature responsible. But if Cora is to overcome the unnatural tide threatening to consume the small town, she must first confront her own tragic past as well as her present.
A stunning supernatural novel that will be quickly joined by a very welcome sequel, She Returns From War, in February 2013.

Columbus, Ohio - UCLA's Benjamin Kohlloeffel won two singles matches Friday to advance to the semifinals of the 2006 ITA National Intercollegiate Indoor Championships at the Racquet Club of Columbus.
Kohlloeffel, the top-seed and defending champion at the Indoors, opened up the day with a 6-2, 6-4 victory over Ohio State's Justin Kronauge in the round of 16. He followed that up with a 6-1, 6-3 decision against Old Dominion's Harel Srugo in the quarterfinals. Kohlloeffel's opponent in Saturday's semifinals will either be Todd Paul of Wake Forest or Ivan Puchkarov of Oklahoma State.
Kohlloeffel, who is the only seeded player left in the draw, is looking to become the first back-to-back champion at the Indoors since Sargis Sargsian of Arizona State won it back in 1994 and '95.
In women's consolation singles action, UCLA's Riza Zalameda and Yasmin Schnack each won matches Friday. Zalameda was a 6-1, 6-3 winner over Notre Dame's Colleen Rielley, while Schnack downed Notre Dame's Cismina Ciobanu by the same score.

Integrate "Read on phone" features to have similar functionality to iPhone app
It is decidedly odd that your excellent "read on phone" android app and chrome extension is not integrated with the "read later" diigo feature. It seems that you do provide offline reading capability in the iPhone app, but this does not exist in the Android app. It would be much much more useful to have the great reading experience of "Read on phone" in the main Android app and available for all "Read later" marked bookmarks.67 votesplanned · Sandy_diigo responded
After we rolled out diigo V6 , we will address this issue.

Raza & Parker Finish Top 10 in St. Mary's Finale
Courtesy: GoDucks.com
Release Date: 09/25/2012
After Tuesdays final round, UO (296-287-291-874) ended 14 strokes behind the leader and host St. Mary's (first, 290-285-285-860). Fresno State followed in second place (289-288-280-867) in the 15-team field.
On the individual front, freshman Sulman Raza (72-74-71) and redshirt senior Tyler Parker (76-68-73) tied for 10th place overall with one-over scores of 217 and their highest career placings.
The Portland, Ore., native Parker also led UO in an event's final standings for the first time in his career, and logged four birdies on holes #1, 8, 11th and 18th. In Tuesday's finale, he also carded 10 par scores (#2-6, 9-10, 13-15), three bogeys (#7, 12, 16) and one double bogey (#17).
The Eugene native Raza carded an eagle on the par-four 11th hole, three birdies on the eighth, 13th and 15th holes, 11 par scores (#1, 3, 6, 7, 9-10, 12, 14, 16-18), two bogeys (#2, 5) and one double-bogey (#4). His first under under-par collegiate round also helped him pace UO for the second time in the event and career.
On the par-72, 7,024-yard course, two other Ducks ended with top-25 placings – sophomores Jonathan Woo (20th-tie, 74-74-72-220 (+4)) and Rak Cho (22nd-tie, 74-72-75-221 (+5)) – and Woo posted his seventh career round of par or better.
UO also featured one other team entry – freshman Brandon McIver (42nd–tie, 77-73-78-228 (+12)) – and another individual entry in sophomore Tye Gabriel (52nd-tie, 75-75-80-230 (+14)).
Overall for the event's 54 holes, three Ducks scored single eagles – Cho, Parker and Raza – and combined Duck birdie/par counts follow: Parker (11/31), Raza (9/34), Raza (9/34), Gabriel (8/27), Cho (7/33), Mc Iver (7/31) and Woo (5/41).
Overall on the individual leaderboard, Ben Geyer of St. Mary's jumped 18 places Tuesday to win by one stroke (75-72-65 (-4)), thanks to the tourney's lowest score in the finale.
Jobim Carlos of San Francisco (70-73-70) and Scott Lowe of Santa Clara (72-70-71) followed in a tie for second place with three-under final scores of 213.
Two other players followed in a tie for fourth place with two-under scores of 214.
Hole-by-hole results are available via the link to the right, and more tourney information is available at the www.SMCgaels.com website.
Looking ahead, the Ducks look ahead to their third of four fall events in two weeks – the Pac-12 Preview at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club near Portland, Ore., Monday-Tuesday, October 8-9.

According to Susan Sanford, Public Information Officer for the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, Texas' state boxing commission does not regularly test professional boxers for the use of most performance enhancing drugs (PEDs), including anabolic steroids.
Texas implemented an updated drug testing protocol in the fall of 2011. It has widely been assumed that the process, which includes a random selection of four to six fighters from any given fight card, incorporated testing for performance enhancing drugs such as anabolic steroids. However, information provided to TSS confirms the current random testing protocol is almost exclusively geared towards illicit and recreational drug screening.
According to Sanford, the nine-panel urinalysis test only includes the following:
1. Amphetamine Screen
2. Barbiturate
3. Benzodiazepines
4. Cannabinoid
5. Cocaine
6. Opiates (Codeine and Morphine)
7. Phencyclidine
8. Methadone Screen
9. Propoxyphene
Sanford provided documentation indicating Texas could direct combatants of any professional boxing match sanctioned by the state to undergo additional testing requirements, including but not limited to PEDs, but only at the direction of the executive director or his assistant. The rule reads as follows:
61.30. Responsibilities and Authority of the Executive Director (Amended effective December 1, 2003, 28 TexReg 10445; amended effective February 1, 2005, 30 TexReg 378; amended effective February 1, 2006, 31 TexReg 481; amended effective October 15, 2010, 9081)
(p) The executive director, or his designee, may require of a contestant, neurological or other medical testing.
"Under the rule, the agency can require a contestant to undergo anabolic steroid testing, among other tests," Sanford told TSS. "Anabolic steroid testing is not regularly performed, but it has been done on occasion."
It is unclear how many PED tests have occurred since the testing protocol was initiated. An inquiry made to Dickie Cole, Executive Director, has gone unanswered at time of press. Information posted at the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation website indicates random drug tests are provided either before or after a bout as directed by the executive director or his designee:
(p) A person who applies for or holds a license as a contestant shall provide a urine specimen for drug testing either before or after the bout, if directed by the executive director or his designee. The applicant or licensee is responsible for paying the costs of the drug screen.
The state also lists categories of banned substances which it would constitute conclusive evidence of a violation. However, the standard test given at random by the state does not match the eleven categories listed:
(q) A positive test (which has been confirmed by a laboratory authorized by the executive director or his designee) for any of the following substances shall be conclusive evidence of a violation of subsection (o).
(1) Stimulants
(2) Narcotics
(3) Cannabinoids (marijuana)
(4) Anabolic agents (exogenous and endogenous)
(5) Peptide hormones
(6) Masking agents
(7) Diuretics
(8) Glucocorticosteroids
(9) Beta--2 agonists (asthma medications)
(10) Anti-estrogenic agents
(11) Alcohol
"The agency contacts Request-a-Test, and that organization arranges a lab technician for the event," said Sanford.
TSS obtained additional information on the drug testing protocol through a public information Open Records request. Sanford confirmed, as suggested in the document, that the nine-panel drug test is the one given in accordance with the process described therein, where four to six fighters are chosen per card at random.
Texas has received unfavorable press in the recent past due to its testing protocol. In a day when combative sports competitors continue to get bigger, faster and stronger at ever advancing ages, the suspicion of rampant PED use in the sport continues to grow. Texas' policy of administering drug tests randomly to a maximum of six randomly selected competitors was already considered subpar by many critics. The fact that the test does not even include screening for almost any form of PED (with the exception of amphetamines) would seem to indicate the state is perhaps ill prepared to help combat the ever looming problem of PED usage in the sport.
In comparison, the New York State Athletic Commission conducts urinalysis tests before or after every fight. In addition, Nevada's Keith Kizer told TSS his state tests every fighter on every card. Information posted at the Nevada State Athletic Commission website indicates the state also reserves the right to randomly test fighters any other time during the year. While no one would laud either of these commissions for being beyond reproach when it comes to drug testing protocols (neither fully comply with guidelines set forth by the World Anti-Doping Agency), it would seem reasonable to set drug testing every fighter on a fight card as the absolute minimum standard.
In stark contrast to what happens in Texas, the urinalysis tests performed by both New York and Nevada include screens for anabolic steroids and PEDs much more often. Laz Benitez, a Public Relations Officer for New York's Department of State, advised that while every fighter on every card was tested for "illicit/prohibited substances," the urinalysis tests ordered by the NYSAC for "all championship fights" included testing for PEDs. She also said the Commission uses "discretion to order additional tests if it is determined to be appropriate." Meanwhile, Nevada's top man Kizer confirmed the "primary" function of every urinalysis test done on every fighter in Nevada is to screen for "anabolic agents, diuretics and masking agents."
It is clear the state of Texas lags behinds its peers in regards to PED testing.
Ditto, Deepwater! Roids and PEDs are not the problem. You can whup a joker on dat jive. The corrupted officials are darn killa bees in da legal mayhem hive.
Mad salutes to Texas. Holla!
Read my post on the TSS Donaire piece (if you like). It applies to this as well. Peace boxing lovers.
Texas isnt the only one not doing tests I assure you. A fighter gets a level playing field in Texas but not Vegas or NYC
True DAT, C.J Rock! These self-righteous, corrupted states oughta jump off doze roids-and-PEDs trains of deceit, and call a spade a spade. Ninety percent of fighters are on dat syet -- because of the yearning for a Hulk-like built -- so let all the fights be made. Da best roids-and-PEDs pugilist will get their sorry-@sses whup if they don't have talent and/or skills to pay the bills.
An unskilled and untalented fighter has a better chance of winning by getting da whammy put on his sorry @ss by a hypnotist than "takin' dat sh*t, as Pops Joy May calls roids and PEDs.
I'm reminded of my in-my-momma's womb, infant and toddler's times. The RAGE on boxing's front PAGE during that time was about pugilists gettin' their cheat on by having professional hypnotists put da whammy on 'em and turn 'em into whup-arse wrecking and/or killing machines.
But did dat jive REALLY WORK? HECK NO, IMHO! Just a bunch of hyped-up jive and BIG exaggerations.
Okay! Well maybe it worked a bit. But to me, it was just placebo-working sh*t for a weak mind strong enough to believe in automagic nonsense!
Hypnotist (Doctor) Michael Dean put da whammy on then "clubfighter Ken Norton," who GOAT Ali was using for a tune up before gettin' a rematch against the late, great "Smokin" Joe Frazier. The oddmakers gave Norton absolutely no CHANCE. The odds was something like infinite to double fudge you. Hehehe! But nobody knew about Dr. Dean, who had been putting the whammy on sailors, Marines, male tourists, businessmen and dey bytches and hos around San Diego way. "Wives and good girls didn't play that," according to some bad mamajamas of those days.
The doc could make people do all types of jive on stage. So, anyway, the story that was told to me after I was born and about three years old is that Kenny Norton's trainer was at Dr Dean's show one night, and the trainer didn't believe in hypotism. His arse was smack talking how no muthasucka could put the whammy on him. But the doc did it, and had the trainer doing all type of crazy jive. This is what I was told anyway.
So the next day, the trainer went back to Norton's training at the then popular Fifth Street Boxing Gym in downtown San Diego, and told "every d*ck and trick in the gym that [he had] the magic potion to bust up Clay's @ss and break his jaw, so dat he won't be able to sh*t talk no mo' [sic]." What a prophetic omen!
Yall know the rest of the story. Dr Dean put da double fudge whammy on Kenny Norton, and made that scare-of-Ali fighter believe himself to be part black Superman, part Mandingo Warrior, and he broke GOAT Ali's jaw, put the GOAT's wife into serious shock, shut da champ up for a day and a half and became a superstar sensation in boxing, commercials and movies and a millionaire almost over night. Dude got all type of movie deals, whammy-belief advertisting and super-mad love. The GOAT Ali haters really madly embraced the Jaw Breaker of the GOAT fighter.
And as I came into the world and got long in da tooth as a toddler, I heard the legend of Dr. Dean and the deadly use of hypnotism. OMFG! But the thing about it, even as a toddler being carried around the world to boxing gyms and get my pee pee on everybodee and dey momma, I didn't believe that hypnotism or what the boxing dawgs call whammism worked. Because the doc put da whammy on tons of fighters after Norton, and that jive didn't get them anywhere because they just didn't have it. Off the top of my head, some of the pugilists that I can think of -- leading the bunch would be Duane Bobick, Olympican Gold medalist Ronnie Harris and a San Diego club fighter named David Love.
See nowadays roids and PEDs are the "dangerous putting a man in a trance to kill" hypnotism/whammism of the 1970s and early 1980s. I don't know for sure, but I faintly recall Gentleman Gerry Cooney messing around with that hyped-up dumpsyet.
Hyponotism/whammism couldn't HELP sorry arses back in da day. AND Roids and PEDs cannot help sorry arses nowadays. The greatest benefit of dat junk is that it will give a super, low-confidence muthasucka a shocking PLACEBO surge -- nothing more IMHO! Holla!
Rumors are wildly flying all the way to the P-ISLANDS that Money May is going holla about Fallen Angel Heredia juicing up Juan Manuel Marquez. Wow! Showtime is going straight-up tabloid with Fam May's sensationalism. I ain't hatin.' Holla!
Agreed Radam, whilst the juice may help the fitness. It wont turn a bum into a skilled fighter. It will be interesting to see if anything comes of those JMM/Heredia-juicing and Mayweather rumours. And it's not like Pacman can afford to cry foul play whether you buy into what Floyd says, or doesn't say.
Who will win the Sergey Kovalev vs Andre Ward fight?

So a couple of friends were talking food one day...and out of that conversation came the Burrito Challenge.
So now Jeremy is going to eat Chipotle Burritos for breakfast, lunch and dinner as a way to raise money for a children's hospital in Minnesota.
It got me to thinking...if you were going to pick one food to eat 3 meals a day... What would you pick???
Yesterday I said something that offended a friend, which I feel really bad about. Today, upon hearing how I had upset her, I wrote her an apology letter.
It is very therapeutic to apologize, and something that I feel is part of the very fiber of who we are as Christians.
I thought that you could use this space to say I am Sorry for whoever you need to apologize to.

"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love" (1 Corinthians 13:13 NIV).
Most of us strive to build our faith. Most of us hope in the LORD at all times, but somehow, we keep missing the mark. We've been praying; we've been fasting, and we've been believing GOD for our miraculous breakthroughs. But where is it? Why are we not seeing the manifestation of the promises in every area of our lives? It's simple. As human beings, we tend to under dress ourselves before we approach the LORD. We come to HIM in faith; we come to HIM with hope, but all too often, we miss the most important ingredient: love. Why is it important that we have love? How can we approach the LORD in love?
Growing up, we were taught to walk after our flesh. We learned to adapt to our environments and the people around us. In other words, we were taught to act and think like animals. Most animals are creatures of adaptation. They only survive and flourish in certain environments, but if taken outside of their elements, many of them would not survive. GOD gave us something greater, however. HE gave us HIS very image, and HE called us gods. "I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High" (Psalm 82:6). Because we are little gods, we were not created to become comfortable; we were created to embrace the unfamiliar so we could continue to operate just like GOD. After all, HE is a peculiar GOD, and to be like HIM is to be peculiar, unpredictable and loving. Needless to say, we've all grown comfortable with our lives and the people around us. We only rate our lives as good when our familiar settings have not been interrupted. We like to go each day without incident, and when we pass away from our bodies, we want to go to heaven. We have plans for ourselves, but our plans are oftentimes not GOD'S plans for us. "A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps" (Proverbs 16:9). GOD calls us to do something that requires faith. HE requires that we come out of our comfort zones, take up our crosses and follow HIM. Just what are our crosses? The cross represents crucifixion. We are to crucify our flesh everyday, not giving in to the lusts of the flesh, and we are to follow the lead of the LORD.
Why are we called out of our comfort zones? It's simple. So we can grow in love. But how does embracing something new help us to grow in love?
When I was 29 years old, I traveled outside of the country for the first time. I was afraid at first because I'd never even rode on a plane. When I landed in Germany, I listened to all of the strange tongues around me, and I saw all of the unfamiliar characters around me. I could not generalize them as I'd learned to do in my own country. My curiosity was triggered and I payed more attention to the people around me than I did to the people I'd often see in the United States. While in Europe, I met people from various countries, continents and races. I was taken aback by the stories I heard. I listened to people talk about the conditions they'd grown up in. I met people who grew up in polygamous households. Then again, I saw people who'd never even seen a black person before. What I learned (and heard from people who were traveled) was that people who have traveled outside of their countries were more understanding and loving towards other people. What caused them to be more compassionate and loving? They'd stepped out of their familiar settings and embraced new knowledge. Many racist organizations were established by impoverished individuals who'd never even traveled outside their countries, and some haven't even stepped a foot outside of their states! They'd come to identify themselves by the skin they are in, but many of the people who leave those organizations, walk away after having experienced life outside of what they once knew. Without meeting others who are unlike us, most people end up being led stereotypes.
GOD called us out of our comfortable places so that we could learn to love one another as we love ourselves. But because we have learned to plant ourselves in mindsets, relationships and lifestyles that offer us no growth, GOD oftentimes allows our soil to be overturned by trials and tribulations. In the beginning, we keep going back to what we know, but the LORD won't allow us to root ourselves in the places HE has called us out of, so we keep enduring adversity until we surrender to HIS will for us. Our trials aren't there to break us; they've come to usher us into new mindsets. Our trials are there to take us from one level to the next, but before we leave what we know, everything has to be shaken up to get us to understand that we can never return to those familiar places again.
Let's go back to the questions. Why is it important that we have love? How can we approach the LORD in love?
First off, GOD is love; therefore, we must approach HIM in the very essence of who HE is. To approach HIM in love, we must approach HIM with a forgiving and loving heart towards one another. We must also approach HIM in the beauty of holiness. In other words, we cannot approach the LORD in the wrong way; otherwise, our request to be heard by HIM will be denied. "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land" (2 Chronicles 7:14). What is GOD telling us here? HE said that "if" HIS people would humble themselves, pray, seek HIS face and turn from their wicked ways, it is "then" that HE will hear from heaven, forgive them of their sins and heal the land. In other words, there is a right way and a wrong way to approach the LORD, but if you attempt to go before the altar of GOD in the wrong way, your prayer requests will be turned away with you. That's why the LORD tells us that if we have a brother or sister who has a problem with us, we are to leave our gifts at the altar and be reconciled to our brothers and sisters. "Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift" (Matthew 5:23-24). GOD is telling us to always approach HIM in love. Everything GOD commands us to do brings us back to the foundation of who HE is: love. That's why so many people have unanswered prayers. Their prayers haven't even reached the LORD because they are coming before GOD with loveless hearts. They keep trying to approach the throne of grace with an unforgiving heart. They are attempting to approach a loving and merciful GOD with a hateful and unmerciful heart. Even though they cry with many words and they show up in church faithfully, their prayers are being sent from a dark place; a place hardened by the burdens that they haven't yet cast upon the LORD. We cannot approach the LORD in an ungodly way...ever!
People are going to do us wrong in life; that's a given. After all, people sin against GOD everyday. Who are we that they won't do evil against us? But their sins against us are not our problems. When someone speaks evil of you, it's none of your business; it's GOD'S business. When someone betrays you, it's not a situation that you need to handle; it is a situation that you need to hand over to the LORD so HE can show HIMSELF as mighty. But anytime we attempt to hold onto the hurts, betrayals, lies and any evil that has been done to us, we reject GOD as LORD over our situations, even though we claim that HE is LORD over our lives. "Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men" (Isaiah 29:13).
Anytime we attempt to fix our own problems, we rob GOD of the opportunity to glorify HIS Name. There are two positions that are available for us, and we can't play musical chairs with them. We can either rest in love and know that GOD is the head of our lives, or we can try to head up our own lives because pride has made us restless. Your situation isn't there to put fear in you. People didn't betray you to put fear in you. Sure, the enemy had his intentions, but GOD intended for those situations to cause you to come out of your familiar places and to trust HIM. Anytime GOD moves you, HE is enlarging you, but before HE moves you to another place, HE must remove from you anything and anyone who is hindering you from going into that new place. All too often, we get caught up in looking at the shovel that uprooted us from our comfort zones that we miss the whole picture of GOD'S plans for our lives. GOD never intended for us to become distracted by the vehicles HE has allowed to move us from one place to another. HE wants us to pay attention to the road ahead, for in keeping our eyes on HIM, we are moved into our predestined places in HIM. Our lives are not our own; we belong to the living GOD, and we must remember this always.
To go somewhere, we have to grow somewhere. Keep going forward in GOD, and know that every hurtful situation you endure is an opportunity for you to take the wisdom from that situation and expand your territory here in the earth realm. Don't become distracted by the situations or the people who pulled you up by your roots. Look at every trial as an opportunity for you to get new knowledge, new wisdom and new understanding. It is an opportunity for you to step forward and get closer to who you are in the LORD, and what you were designed to do. It's not all about you; it's all about love. Love your enemies, and GOD will give you understanding as you continue to represent the very essence of who HE is in the realm of the earth.
1 John 4:8- "He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love."
1 John 4:16- "And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him."
John 13:34-35- "A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another."
1 Peter 1:22- "Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently.
Luke 10:27- "And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself."
1 Corinthians 13:8- "Love never fails.."

Sooooo…. yeah. It's been almost 8 months since I've posted anything on here with any substance. Don't judge. Don't get your hopes up either. This isn't a content rich post! Haha. It's been an insane year for me, but it is finally starting to simmer a little bit instead of being at a constant, steady, rolling boil.
Christmas has been upon us since before Halloween hit the shelves in Target 'round these parts. I can't imagine it's much different anywhere else. It made me kind of sad, because, you know – goodbye warm weather and all. I've really been extra-dreading this season this year because for approximately 897,212 reasons, I hate the cold. BUT, as my husband loves to remind me, each day that passes brings us one day closer to Spring. I cannot wait for January when they put bikini's out at Target and put the coats on clearance, despite the fact that people will still need them for 4 more months!!
Secretly though, I've been pretty excited about putting Christmas up this year. I have delusions of grandure that Louie & I will be spending Thanksgiving Break together (minus the 2 days I'm actually working), baking and making decorations for the tree and what-not. We're going to make awesome little felt ornaments for her teachers and I saw a super cute tutorial this morning on how to make these glittery Christmas Trees. I'll post photos once we do it. This proves to you that I'm losing my mind, because glitter is the devil in sparkly shoes. Sparkly, stick-to-every-single-thing-find-it-for-months-can't-get-rid-of-it shoes. Still, I need a little sparkle in my every day life, and I also need a new center piece for my dining room table.
The tree goes up on Black Friday at my house every year, because despite the fact that the very tip-top of our tree is totally shifty and held on by a random broken pencil or some sort of metal thing shoved in the tube, I love it. It makes me happy and I love to look at it. It makes my living room feel warm and cozy. It's awesome.
Santa started shopping for a certain 6 year old a little early this year. Poor guy always gets nailed with a gnarly bill in December, so his elves decided that they'd start in September this year. When American Girl had free shipping and Isabelle was the most hotly talked about item in our household. We will NOT discuss the fact that said 6 year old completely ditched Isabelle plans AFTER THE DOLL WAS PURCHASED AND FOUND A SPOT ON THE SHELF IN THE BACK ROOM AT MY OFFICE, and decided that no, she'd like to have Julie instead. We're at Defcon 4 at my house, and trying in earnest to talk up Isabelle and her multi-talented, pink-hair-extension self, and downplay Julie and the (gasp) $250 trundle bed that comes with her. I can't do it. Lou's entire bedroom set cost me $200 (on Craig's list) and I absolutely REFUSE to spend that much on one bed for a doll. I won't do it. Regardless, we're still working on gifts for her and I can't wait to start wrapping and putting things under the tree.
Not much Black Friday stuff that I'm interested in this year. I do love me some bogo wrapping paper at Target, but I suppose we'll be fine without that deal. I'm not going out at 6:00pm this year. There's nothing I need and not really anything I've seen that I WANT, excepting perhaps some $4.50 pajamas for Lou. Plus, you know, 6:00pm. Bite me, retailers. That's just ridiculous.
I've purchased precisely one thing for my husband. I have ideas for several more, but we started talking about what I wanted and he completely pooh-poohed my "please only get me gift cards" idea. He likes a list. I like a list too because then we're not wasting anyone's time. I like to make lists with massive price ranges because I like to take it easy on him and also I really like to be surprised when maybe one day keys to a '67 Benz Coupe will be under the tree. Don't judge. I LOVE those cars.
Anyhow, in the spirit of being helpful, here my Love, is my list of Christmas Wishes (in no particular order):
- A new watch. Since I mother-effed the face of mine. I want a gold one this time. Because I'm so fancy. But you already know 🙂 OOh. Or also a black one. I just found this link. I love this. A lot.
- GIFT CARDS. Nordstrom, Target, Ulta, Sephora
- This fake-tan kit: I have read loads about this and seen tons of reviews. It's amazing. Really, it's my gift to you in a way, because then my skin won't be see through anymore!! 🙂
- Uggs. I know you don't love these, but I really, really do. These are the ones I want the most of all. In grey. . Size 8 please.
- Something sparkly. This will always be on the list. I extra love these earrings in all of the colors in which they come!
- Valentino Perfume. I know. I have a million perfumes. But there's just something about a good perfume. Again, at Nordstrom, it's this one… in case you wondered. It smells so yummy.
- I still really want that "Unless You're God or George Strait, Take Off Your Boots" sign to hang by the front door. OOhh! And then a bench to have by the front door too so people can sit. And maybe it can be one with cubbies underneath so we can put shoes in it. Just a thought.
- A good lense for my camera that doesn't require so much lense switching back and forth all the live-long day. Although, not especially necessary. I am capable of lense switching.
- That Rustoleum kitchen cabinet refinishing kit at Home Depot. Don't laugh. I still really want that.
- There's this necklace pendant that you can have made at CrackPots in Longmont. It would have yours & Lou's fingerprints on it. You can see an example right exactly when you walk in the store. It's at the register. You have to book an appointment for it, but I want one SO BAD. I think they are like $60 +/-. Not really sure.
- Fiestaware is always good. I want giant coffee cups in all good colors. Kohl's or Jax are great places to scoop these up.
- A gift certificate to the Converse website for $75 so that I can custom-make those sweet Chucks I want in Navy & Orange.
- A girl could always use more makeup brushes. I need some that are good for wet applications. These ones are good.
- These earrings by Oragami Owl that I love, love, love.
- I would love to have a Le Cruset dutch oven (no fart jokes, please). You can get them for less than 1/2 price at Marshalls, but they're still SUPER expensive. Just be advised.
- Coach things are always appreciated.
- I would also love a black leather bag by Michael Kors. Something with gold hardware. I can't find an exact photo, but something slouchy and soft. And big. At least as big as my orange Coach bag I scored from the outlet a couple of years go. I may or may not have spilled a considerable amount of coffee in that bag. But we won't talk about that. I'm also not opposed to fringes.
- Frye. You know the boots I love. In a 9 because you need a little extra room in a heel. Or a slouchy squishy soft black leather Frye bag. Do they even make bags? Oh man…. I just looked. They totally do. You're in luck! I like a Campus Hobo bag in Chestnut. I'm not nuts about the rest of the line.
- I would like a living locket necklace from Origami Owl. They're super cool. I'd like you & Lou to pick the charms. Long chain though please. I'd like it to hang about mid-boob. 🙂
- I'd love to have me a Bose Sound Cube. For rockin' out at my desk. Because you know I'm all about that bass, 'bout that bass. (Plus my other one REFUSES to pair with my phone. Won't do it.)
- Starbucks has this really cool coffee cup that I love so much. It's white ceramic with a lid and down one side it has 2 rows of graphite colored pyramid spikes. It's badass. You know, for coffee cups. Lou knows which one it is. I showed her. If you can't find that one, they have a cool mermaid one in teals & gold. It's my second choice. Cups are always good. Love me a good cup.
- I'd like to own one of those water bottles that has a fruit infusing tube in the center. Because they're cool.
- I'd really extra love the Love the Skin You're In collection by Younique. I know a girl too if you need to know where to buy that…. www.eyelovethoselashes.com. She's AWESOME.
- I'd like blitz cards for my business. They're expensive, but I'd like to have some. Fun wish list when you're in your 30's, right?
I can't really think of anything else. Really, all that matters to me is that I wake up with you & Louie and we spend the day together with our crazy petting zoo. None of this stuff matters to me all that much. But since you asked… 😉

I have same problem with 6210 ver 4.08
Was youre phone ok before flashing as the one i got someone else had tried to unlock it and screwed it up. But flashing sorted it apart from it now asks for security code which should be 12345 according to Logomanager. If I find a solution I will post please do likewise.

Hi there...
Perhaps a stupid thing, but i had the same problem... with all the other cards except the original card that was supplied with phone , the phone says security code:
only with the original card i did not have this problem.. when i put in the original card, i had no troubles at all... i could go to menu, settings, securitycode, and change it to whatever i wanted to be... 12345 worked than , but only with the supplied card..
Perhaps this is your problem to.. try it!

A think this is a problem with cellnet phones as they lock some phones to the sim.
If the flash was only network locked would that still leave the phone sim tied. Therefore do we need a flash from a cellnet or other similar sim tied phone to cure. Thoughts anyone ????

For 6210 Security Code, there is only 1
working solution and you need to have the
Original SIM from which the phone was locked
in the phone security (not sp_lock)
1. Read security code via Logomanager
2. Put Original SIM to phone
3. Phone does not ask for security code
4. Go to phone options and change access
codes to security code. When asked to
input original Security code, enter the
5 digit code that you get from Logomanager
then change the security code to 12345
5. Go to phone security, and disable phone
security level
6. Now you can use any SIM!
What you should not do!
1. Try to restore factory defaults using
Nokia Tool
2. Try to restore factory defaults using
Cracked NSE dll for WinTesla
3. Try inputting the Logomanager readout
code to the phone using non-original
SIM and trying for more than 10 times
or so because the trick above might not
work anymore
This new feature for 6210 makes stolen phones
that ask for security code useless unless
you have the proper hardware and software
to get around the problem.

latest version of logomager does give correct security code. although turn off phone disconnect battery, power up and then type in code. works. tested twice so far. No harm in trying.
Best of luck!!

If you have trouble with security code try this Read the code with logomanager or nokiatool switch the phone off and on again and leave it for about half an hour or so Then try the security code. This has always worked for me.

Ultra-Efficient Gas Engine Passes Test
By Kevin Bullis in Technology Review, March 8 2010
Transonic Combustion, a startup based in Camarillo, CA, has developed a fuel-injection system it says can improve the efficiency of gasoline engines by more than 50 percent. A test vehicle equipped with the technology gets 64 miles per gallon in highway driving, which is far better than more costly gas-electric hybrids, such as the Prius, which gets 48 miles per gallon on the highway.
The key is heating and pressurizing gasoline before injecting it into the combustion chamber, says Mike Rocke, Transonic's vice president of business development. This puts it into a supercritical state that allows for very fast and clean combustion, which in turn decreases the amount of fuel needed to propel a vehicle. The company also treats the gasoline with a catalyst that "activates" it, partially oxidizing it to enhance combustion.
The technology is one of many being developed to squeeze more efficiency out of existing engines to meet new fuel economy standards and other regulations--without making vehicles more expensive. "It's a time of renaissance for internal combustion engines," says William Green, a professor of chemical engineering at MIT. Improvements include smaller engines boosted with turbocharging, improved valve timing, and direct injection, in which fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber rather than into an adjacent port. He says Transonic's approach "may be a promising way to improve on conventional direct injection."
If it works as promised, the new technology would improve fuel economy by far more than these other options, some of which can improve efficiency on the order of 20 percent. It is expected to cost about as much as high-end fuel injection systems currently on the market, Rocke says.

Last week a friend took me to see "Menopause The Musical."
I was told it was a musical comedy.
I note that it was a musical … but a comedy?
This show scared the sh*t out of me!
Apparently I am going to grow old and have a dry vag*na, night sweats and hot flashes.
Who knew?!
And that, is if I am lucky. The "change" seems to bring on depression in 50 percent of women, mood swings in 48 percent of women and in 2 freakin'percent of the population, it makes you want to sing about it in a musical!!!
I understand … just last week I walked into a room with a purpose, but forgot entirely what that purpose was. I immediately started dancing about my "senior moment." In fact, I already started working on producing "Dementia, the Dancefest." I will let you know when it is ready for release.
But seriously…
What if I decide I am not "changing?" I have been known to march to the beat of my own drummer you know. I went with the menstruation thing, I did the whole giving birth gig, I do mammos with my mama … but I am not "down" with this one ladies. Wanna sit this one out, know what I mean?
Plus, other than the chicks dancing and singing in the show, most of you have not given people like me fair warning. Oh, sure, you joke about your broken internal thermometers, you may have told us your "friend" stopped coming each month—but you're not talking about the rest of the stuff that can come with "meno…" I can't even say the rest of the word.
So, a few of you must have some secrets you can share. There's an underground club for chicks like us, who don't want to hit the "play button" on the topic of this musical, right?
Please respond. I will be waiting … anxiously.

It was from before the party; they knew the other whippets were coming so they were waiting patiently at the window.

Friday Ark #362…
Happy Thanksgiving! We'll post links to sites that have Friday (plus or minus a few days) photos of their chosen animals (photoshops at our discretion and humans only in supporting roles). Watch the Exception category for rocks, beer, coffee cups, and…
