Expand Your Board Game Collection With Today's Amazon Gold Box
If your board game collection has been gathering dust, you can freshen it up with over 70 discounted strategy games on sale in today's Amazon Gold Box.
If your board game collection has been gathering dust, you can freshen it up with over 70 discounted strategy games on sale in today's Amazon Gold Box.
There have been several ad hoc board game discounts over the last several days, but Amazon just rolled double sixes with this massive Gold Box deal.
Cards Against Humanity is the most popular game we've ever posted, and it never goes on sale. Hell, on Black Friday last year, they actually raised the game's price by $5. Today only though, Amazon is taking 20% off the base game and all of its expansion packs, while supplies last.
If you somehow haven't played Settlers of Catan yet, all you need to know is that it's basically the board game, perfected. And today, you can add the 5th edition to your game cabinet for just $36, the lowest price Amazon's ever offered.
Get set for your next game night with great deals on a variety of discounted strategy board games, today only on Amazon.
In her book The Monopolists, Mary Pilon explores the secret origins of the game Monopoly, which begin with Lizzie Magie, a forgotten feminist who patented her Landlord's Game in 1904—not, as many think, a man during the Great Depression.
The Wall Street Journal's Kevin Clark, who has been pumping out fun, off-color NFL stories all year, has another good one today. It's all about how a handful of Green Bay Packers got hooked on Settlers of Catan, the board game that all of your buddies who are bearded craft-beer enthusiasts are addicted to.
1. Oranges
Everybody knows how to play Jenga, right? The word "Jenga" is Swahili for "build," and the purpose of the game is to pull a brick from the base of the structure and add it to the top without making the whole thing topple over.
Yesterday a reader and I theorized that the Orange properties were the best monopoly to own in Monopoly. And now a scientician has proven us RIGHT!
Chris Haney, the Canadian photographer who invented Trivial Pursuit, passed away at the age of 59. So that's who to blame for all those times you needed an orange pie piece and got stuck with a question about mixology. [Globe&Mail]

GEN. GEORGE WASHINGTON played wicket with the troops at Valley Forge in early May 1778. Wicket involved a bat and a ball and a manicured path from the pitcher to the hitter, the sort of landscaping you saw back in the day in bygone ballyards, before AstroTurf, before high-def scoreboards, before $126 million contracts.
You didn't know that, did you? You thought baseball was invented in America in a Cooperstown pasture by a U.S. Army officer named Abner Doubleday. And if it wasn't Doubleday, then it must have been Alexander Cartwright, because there's a plaque in the Hall of Fame that credits him "with establishing many of the rules of baseball and adapting it from a children's game to an adult sport."

Apple Maps is still misplacing Dunedin
International Airport in the Octagon almost two years after
the problem was first reported.
Airport chief executive John McCall said it was frustrating
Apple had not fixed the problem after it raised the issue
with the company in 2012.
''We raised it with Apple and have absolutely got nowhere,''
Mr McCall said.
He had ''no idea'' why the airport's location still came up
as the Octagon when people searched for it on Apple Maps, but
had a simple solution.
''Go to Google [Maps].''
The error was reported in the Otago Daily Times in September
2012 after Apple took over as the default provider of maps
software on iPads and iPhones.
The launch of the software was plagued by problems around the
world, but Apple has since worked to fix issues which
included highways that ended in the middle of nowhere and
towns in the wrong location.
Apple did not respond to a request for comment yesterday.
A name, residential address, and (preferably residential) telephone number is required from readers who comment on ODT Online. These details will not be visible to site visitors.
NZ is bigger than the UK and Ireland, quite a few European
countries and roughly the same as Japan, but we have a
small relative poulation. We just look small because we sit
out in the middle of an ocean beside our western island also
known the world's largest island and smallest continent,
otherwise called Aussie.
Our so-called small size is a matter of perception rather
than reality.
The data itself is actually provided by TomTom Navigation.
Dunedin Airport is located perfectly in Apple Maps if you
search for 'Dunedin Airport' or 'Airport' or 'Airport Road',
it only points you to The Octagon if you specifically search
for 'Dunedin International Airport'. I agree it should be
changed but really it's not that big a deal, 99% of people
will just search for 'Airport' or 'Dunedin Airport'.
Or you could just follow the signs - NZ isn't that big!
No wonder I've been missing my flights!

Accuracy of Fine Needle Aspirate in Sarcoma Diagnosis
Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
Our 10-year old neutered mixed-terrier was diagnosed with sarcoma of the front left elbow by x-rays and a fine-needle aspirate. He then had chest x-rays (which showed no evidence of macroscopic pulmonary metastasis), and a biopsy, including a bone sample. However, the biopsy results were negative in all specimens, including the bone. Our specialist gave us two choices:
Is there anything else we could be doing now to possibly save the life of our dog? Would it help to take a blood sample? We feel we are wasting valuable time if he does have cancer.
Feeling helpless,
Lili Duda, VMD, Editor of the OncoLink Veterinary Oncology Section, responds:
Fine-needle aspirates can be difficult to interpret, particularly in the presence of inflammation. Fine-needle aspirates are rarely definitively diagnostic. Rather, they are usually "suggestive" or "compatible with", and this is why your veterinarian wanted to confirm the diagnosis with a biopsy before doing a more radical procedure such as an amputation. You are in a difficult situation, and it is hard to wait when you are worried cancer is present. However, it has been almost a month since your dog's last tests, so it might be a good time to repeat the diagnostics again with your veterinary specialist X-rays to see if there have been any changes in the bone since his last examination, and more biopsies of the bone and soft tissues. These two tests are probably the best two tests that are readily available (there are no blood tests that can diagnose bone cancer).
There are some other tests that may or may not be appropriate for your dog and they are only available at some larger veterinary hospitals. These tests are a CT or MRI scan, and a nuclear scintigraphy scan. Please ask your veterinary specialist for more information about these tests and whether they might help.

Developments in India indicate that some of the country's mall developers and retailers are striking revenue-sharing deals. For example, Entertainment World Developers Pvt.

Citigroup's new five-year sustainability strategy could help shift global capital towards low-carbon development.
Blog Posts: finance
The International Development Finance Club (IDFC)—a group of international, national, and regional development banks based in the developed and the developing world—released its annual report on green investment (i.e. mitigation, adaptation and 'other' environmental finance which includes environmental protection and remediation related projects)—as the world's climate negotiators were meeting in Lima, and its numbers are significant.
A recent UN report highlights the need to examine the role of development finance institutions in sustainable development, but it leaves open the question of whether member states should call for a review process.
Here's a perspective on some of the outstanding negotiation challenges.
Adaptation finance accountability is key to addressing obligations of national governments and international organizations to provide support, but actual funding decisions are often made without involving the populations hit first and worst by climate change, or without understanding how communities are vulnerable.
So who is accountable for making good use of adaptation funds, and who should hold whom accountable?
Making the transition to a low-carbon, climate-resilient economy is going to take a lot of investment, and the limited budgets of the public sector can't tackle it alone.
But by targeting their support, governments can create incentives for significant private investment into climate activities; in other words, they can "mobilize" private investment.
Why is the recent U.S. pledge to the Green Climate Fund important for a 2015 climate agreement?
The Green Climate Fund (GCF) has a big role to play. It's expected to become the world's main mechanism for securing and distributing finance to help developing nations tackle climate change.
The multi-billion dollar question is: Can it live up to this expectation?
A new report from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Getting Energy Prices Right: From Principle to Practice, argues that the costs of coal, natural gas, gasoline, and diesel fail to account for these fuels' environmental and social impacts—such as greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution, and traffic deaths.
Setting prices that reflect these side effects—through taxes, licensing, or cap-and-trade systems—could reduce deaths from fossil fuel-related air pollution by 63 percent, decrease global carbon dioxide emissions by 23 percent, and generate revenues totaling about 2.6 percent of global GDP.
There's a growing gap between current investment in low-carbon energy and what's needed to meet world demand while avoiding the worst impacts of climate change. The good news is there's sufficient capital and investor interest to close much of this gap.
However, policies that encourage market certainty and level the playing field between different energy sources are needed to attract the volume of investment required, according to a special International Energy Agency (IEA) report, the World Energy Investment Outlook, released this month.
The Green Climate Fund is holding its 7th Board meeting in Songdo, Korea this week. One of the most difficult questions that the GCF Board will grapple with is how entities will become "accredited" to receive GCF funds to help developing countries mitigate and adapt to climate change.

WAVERLY, Ohio (AP) — Demolition crews were tearing down a southern Ohio landmark restaurant after it was gutted by fire.
The historic Emmitt House in Waverly, about 60 miles south of Columbus, has stood in the center of the village since 1861, first as a hotel and most recently as a restaurant.
The three-story brick building went up Monday night in a spectacular blaze as firefighters dealt with frigid temperatures trying to put it out. Heavy equipment was brought in to demolish the building Tuesday.
The building had gone through several owners over recent years and several openings and closings. The current owner had reopened it in September. It had gained notoriety for supposedly being haunted, and has been featured on national TV shows in recent years.
Blame it on the ghosts.
Any structure that has had a frequent turn over of ownership needs to be inspected carefully for code violations.
Those type of buildings are often modified by the latest owner in a less than sound manner to suit his needs at the least cost, propagating hazards.

SAN DIEGO (AP) -- A Marine has died while scuba diving off the coast of San Diego.
The San Diego County medical examiner's office says the 26-year-old woman was with a dive group exploring a sunken ship off Mission Beach on Saturday when she failed to surface.
After a two-hour search, her body was located at the Yukon _ a former Canadian minesweeper that was intentionally sunk at a recreational dive site known as Wreck Alley.
Family members tell KNSD-TV (http://bit.ly/TtV4Oh ) that the woman as Staci Jackson, originally from Philadelphia. She was stationed at Camp Pendleton.
The cause of her death is under investigation and her diving equipment will be checked for possible malfunctions.

Academy director Nick Marshall, finance director and company secretary John Pelling, operations manager Brandon Furse and media and communications manager Fraser Nicholson have lost their jobs.
Marshall and Nicholson both had 16 years service at Forest, while Pelling and Furse had been employees at the club for 14 and 12 years respectively.
The sackings are the latest in a behind-the-scenes overhaul at the City Ground which began last month when long-serving chief executive Mark Arthur and Reds legend Frank Clark, who had an ambassadorial role at the club, were dismissed.
Chief scout Keith Burt was also let go along with Arthur and Clark.
A week ago, the Al-Hasawis brought back Billy Davies for a second spell as boss. The Scot is the fourth manager to work under the Kuwaiti's since their takeover last summer.
Burt was replaced on Wednesday when Bobby Downes was appointed as the club's new head of recruitment.

International real estate firm Hines said the 13-story, 415,000-square-foot building under construction at La Jolla Commons in San Diego will become the nation's largest carbon-neutral office building to date.
The new building will achieve carbon neutrality on an annual basis through a combination of high-performance building design, directed biogas and on-site fuel cells that annually will generate more electricity than the building and tenant will use.
The building will be fully leased and occupied by LPL Financial LLC, an independent broker-dealer, institutional service provider and a wholly owned subsidiary of LPL Financial Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: LPLA).
While there are other net-zero buildings in the United States, LPL Financial at La Jolla Commons reportedly will be the largest building in the U.S. developed for lease.
It is being developed and will be owned by a partnership of Hines and institutional investors advised by J.P. Morgan Asset Management.
Construction began in April 2012 and completion is scheduled for mid-2014.
Total on-site energy production will be roughly equivalent to generating the electricity required to power 1,000 San Diego homes.
Its system will contribute to California's goal of deriving a third of its electricity from renewable sources by 2020.

Saints use second 3rd-round pick on Louisville's Patrick
Published: Friday, April 29, 2011 at 9:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 29, 2011 at 9:18 p.m.
METAIRIE — The New Orleans Saints have taken Louisville cornerback Johnny Patrick with the second of two third-round draft choices.
The 5-foot-11, 191-pound Patrick was the third defensive player taken in the first four picks by the Saints, who began by selecting defensive end Cameron Jordan, followed by running back Mark Ingram in the first round, then linebacker Martez Wilson in the third round.
Patrick was first-team all Big East in 2010. He started 13 games and returned five interceptions for 99 yards and a touchdown to go with 12 pass deflections.
He finished with 49 tackles, including one sack for minus six yards and 6.5 tackles for losses overall. He also had a blocked field goal and a forced fumble.

Style notes: finding and styling men's cardigans for 2016
The humble cardigan is a versatile, classy and stylish item of clothing that every fashion-conscious man should have at least one of. What's especially brilliant about men's cardigans is their wearability; they're easy to throw on over so many of your other clothes. Cardigans also make layering easy and are a great cheap way to update your wardrobe. While some men have completely embraced the cardigan, others still seem a little shy, despite its prominence on men's designer catwalks.
Read over our style notes to see how versatile and slick a men's cardigan can be, then head over to our comparison pages where you can compare the latest styles and shop for your perfect new men's cardigan.
History of the cardigan
Men's knitwear cardigans were named after a British commander, James Brudenell, 7th Earl of Cardigan, after he fought in the Crimean War in the 19th century. Fishermen in the French and British isles soon adopted the cardigan as a means of keeping warm on the rough seas. When the Ivy League look became popular in the 1950s the cardigan was adopted into mainstream fashion where it still remains in 2016.
Which styles are in fashion for 2016?
Single-breasted A flattering option for all, a single breasted men's cardigan features one row of buttons down the front of the cardi.
Double-breasted A double-breasted style features two rows of buttons down the front of the cardigan. Stick to this look if you're on the slimmer side because it can bulk you up if you're not careful.
V-neck An extremely popular style of men's cardigans at the moment, the V-neck adds definition to the torso and shows off your layers underneath!
Shawl collars An added focal point on a men's cardigan, the shawl collar is a thick band around the neckline. Avoid this style if you're heavier set because it adds bulk.
Wearing and styling cardigans for men
Formal For a formal look, pair your new men's cardigan with a formal shirt and slacks, classy and slick without looking like you tried too hard. Add a skinny tie or colored cardi for a new-season update and layer under a blazer for added warmth in cooler months. Stick to neutrals, darks and muted tones in the office.
Casual Skinny jeans or chinos will always work with men's cardigans for a casual look. A classic, crisp white tee looks great with this combo. Or try a color or print top (as long as the print is very small) for added interest.
Colors Stick to buying men's cardigans on sale in a variety of dark and muted tones: black, grey, maroon, dark blue and earthy tones all look great and can be worn year-round and incorporated into any outfit.
Men's cardigans: The Rules
- Avoid bulky layers above or underneath your cardigan.
- Similarly, don't pair your men's cardigan with loose fitting jeans. It'll completely ruin the sleek silhouette you've got going on with your new knitwear!
- Wear open or buttoned-up. Both ways can look great but leave the bottom button of your cardigan open if you're doing it up.
- Wearing your men's cardigan open gives a relaxed vibe while framing the torso and is obviously a great way of showing off your shirt underneath.
- Do not pair a V-neck top with a V-neck cardigan.
- A well-fitted men's cardigan should have a soft drape at the shoulder and hang low enough to cover your belt.
- When you buy a men's cardigan look for a slightly tapered shape - narrowing under the rib cage then slightly widening at the bottom. This makes for the most flattering silhouette.
When shopping for men's designer cardigans and knitwear it's imperative you get the fit just right. Take a look at our size guide for general guidance on sizes.

MIDWAY, Utah -- Julija Tchepalova of Russia dusted off a
pair of skis and rode them to the gold medal in the 1.5-kilometer
cross-country sprint Tuesday, her second medal of these Winter
Evi Sachenbacher of Germany won the silver and Anita Moen of
Norway was the bronze medalist.
Claudia Kuenzel of Germany finished fourth and protested the
results, claiming Moen cut her off by illegally changing lanes in
the final stretch. A competition panel overruled the complaint
shortly after the finish.
"It was a very difficult victory for me," Tchepalova said.
"Today was just my lucky day."
Katerina Neumannova of the Czech Republic, favored to win the
event, was eliminated in the second round.
Tchepalova covered the Soldier Hollow course in 3 minutes, 10.6
seconds -- controlling the race from start to finish. She did it
with a pair of skis she had not used in more than two years.
"I hadn't used them because there wasn't the right weather,"
she said, referring to the slushy conditions. "Today, they were
going forward like crazy and contributed to my victory."
Tchepalova won bronze in the 10K classical event. The victory Tuesday was her second gold medal in two Olympics -- she won the 30K
freestyle in 1998.
Athletes ski just less than a mile in the sprint, a fast-paced,
fan-friendly race making its Olympic debut.
The 58-woman field was narrowed during early morning qualifying.
The fastest 16 skiers moved into four elimination heats. The top
two skiers from each four-person heat advanced to the semifinals.
The top two skiers in each semifinal then advanced to the
four-person final.
Americans Tessa Benoit, Kikkan Randall, Aelin Peterson and
Kristina Joder failed to qualify for the elimination heats.

Terrebonne loses to Destrehan in five games
Published: Friday, September 17, 2010 at 9:19 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, September 17, 2010 at 9:19 a.m.
HOUMA — It took five games to decide the winner of Thursday's nondistrict volleyball match between Destrehan and Terrebonne. Given the intensity, competitiveness and closeness of the games, it may well have taken five more had the two teams continued play.
As it was, Robin Sill's kill shot on match-point gave Destrehan the fifth game and the match victory, 25-19, 22-25, 23-25, 25-18, 16-14.
Sill finished with a game-high 29 kills and was front and center throughout the afternoon for Destrehan (6-1 overall), which overcame a 5-0 deficit in the fifth game.
"We didn't know what to expect," Destrehan coach Denise Keller said. "We knew they (Terrebonne) had some big girls, and they always come out strong, so we knew we'd have a game."
To that end, Terrebonne (8-7) didn't disappoint.
After Destrehan used an 8-0 run to take an 11-3 lead early in the first game, the Lady Tigers responded in the second game. Terrebonne found its first wind after again falling behind early at 10-3, going on a 7-1 run to pull to within a point at 11-10.
From there, the Lady Tigers kept pressing and pressing until tying the game at 14 and then taking the lead for good at 17-15 on Kellie Scoby's kill shot.
Terrebonne kept its intensity in the third game, staking a 13-7 lead early. The Lady Tigers led 21-12 before a 4-0 Destrehan run forced a Terrebonne timeout.
Destrehan fought back to make it 24-23, but Kendra Davis' putback gave the Lady Tigers the 25-23 victory and a 2-1 lead in the match.
The fourth game was played evenly until the midway point with the score tied at 12. Then, Destrehan took over, using a 7-1 run to take a 19-13 lead. They never led by less than six points the rest of the game, en route to a 25-18 victory.
But in the fifth game, the Lady Wildcats quickly found themselves staring down the barrel.
"Statistics say that if you get down in that fifth game, you've got to jump on," Keller said.
That's exactly what Destrehan did. Despite being down 5-0, the Lady Wildcats went on to score 10 of the game's next 11 points to open up a 10-6 lead.
Terrebonne settled down and pulled even, but with Destrehan leading 15-14 on game point, the Lady Wildcats turned to Sill one last time.
"We kept setting Robin Sill every time," Keller said. "I told them, 'She's on the front row. You get the ball to her.' Her percentage of kills was phenomenal."
Sill also had three assists and three aces. Nicole Haydel led Destrehan with 36 assists, and Michelle Haydel had 16 digs.
"We just made too many mistakes at the very end," said first-year Terrebonne coach Craig Hamner. "They attacked us, and we just made too many service errors at the very end. I think we missed 16 serves total in the game. We played great games if you take the serving out. I think they just served better than we did (Thursday)."
Darian Dees led Terrebonne with 12 kills, and Sabrina Bergeron added 10. Cymoine Fleming had 17 digs and Allie Domangue added 13.
Terrebonne had 14 aces as a team and Jackie Daigle had a team-high 31 assists.
"Overall, (Sill) had a great game, and she was good," Hamner said. "She was their team."
At the Morgan City tournament, Thibodaux picked up a 22-25, 26-24, 15-7 over Morgan City.
Leaders for Thibodaux (5-5 overall) were Alyssa Martinez (seven kills, four blocks, four assists), Alyssa Rodrigue (six assists), Taylor Ford and Stacy Theriot each with two aces and Theriot and Jarraneisha Allen each with five kills.
The Lady Tigers will continue at the Morgan City tournament on Saturday, with matches against Ascension Catholic, Breaux Bridge and St. Martinville.

Obama V. Romney, Round 2: Here's What To Expect From Tonight's Debate
Get the cocktails and snacks ready: The second presidential debate is going down tonight at 9 p.m. If you're a President Obama supporter, you may be a little anxious about how this whole thing might go down. After all, last time he seemed a little…off. We're not sure whether he was just unprepared or he had taken some Benadryl that day (it is allergy season, after all), but we think tonight will be a little bit different.
If nothing else, the fact that Candy Crowley will be the first woman to moderate a presidential debate in 20 years is pretty exciting. But, the town hall format —where the questions come from undecided voters in the audience instead of the moderator — could mean some interesting questions. Here are five things to watch (and listen) for.
1. Women's issues. Women didn't get any airtime in the first debate (understandably, since the theme was the economy), but it's worth noting that the only "women's issue" discussed during the VP debate was abortion. We expect that to change this time around, with more focus on things like women's health, birth control, sexual assault, and abortion laws, as well as other social issues that haven't been hashed out in detail yet.
2. Taxes, and the 47 percent. Yes, we were surprised no one brought up Romney's gaffe at the first debate, too. Tonight, expect at least one person to bring up their own tax rate, the candidates' tax returns, and whether Romney really cares about the whole country — or just half of it.
3. The Benghazi attack, and who is responsible. Besides being really, really sad, the attack on the American consulate in Benghazi, Libya, (that killed Ambassador Christopher Stephens and three other Americans) has become super politicized. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has taken responsibility for the attack, but there are still a lot of questions remaining about security and who knew what, when.
4. Surprises. Town halls tend to be gaffe factories, and the citizens asking the questions are very likely to share their own struggles and ask the candidates about their personal experiences. This could be particularly interesting since both candidates are trying hard to connect with voters, and they'll have to think on their feet. We'd be shocked if at least one candidate doesn't wander away from his talking points.
5. Smiling and interrupting, or the lack thereof. This is TV, and just like that Nixon-Kennedy debate we learned about in history class, appearance is everything. These days, the focus is not so much on makeup or clothing, but on facial expressions. Romney's demeanor in the last debate was the real winner, with Obama seeming distant and out-of-it. And people are still talking about Joe Biden's over-the-top laughing, smirking, and snarking at the patiently grinning Paul Ryan, not to mention all those interruptions. This time, we expect Obama to be more engaged, but both will have to strike a balance in this format. Neither wants to come across as a bully.
Will you be tuning in tonight? If so (or even if not), follow along as we live-tweet the whole thing @Refinery29.

Typhoon Megi Weakens on Way to South Coast of China
Typhoon Megi, which left 19 people dead in the Philippines, weakened as it moved closer to the south China coast, where authorities issued the highest alert and stepped up emergency preparations for landfall.
The storm, packing sustained winds of 176 kilometers per hour (109 mph), down from 185 kph earlier, was 440 kilometers southeast of Hong Kong at 2 p.m. local time moving north at 9.3 kph, the U.S. Joint Typhoon Warning Center said on its website.
Megi is forecast to weaken further and make landfall near Shantou in Guangdong province on Oct. 23. The storm's eye may be about 370 kilometers from Hong Kong at its closest, the center said. The Hong Kong Observatory issued a No. 3 Strong Wind Signal, indicating winds as high as 62 kph are expected.
"Signal No. 3 is expected to be in force for some time," Lee Tsz-cheung, a senior scientific officer at the observatory, said in a phone interview. "We do not expect the weather today to deteriorate rapidly."
Hong Kong's government is making emergency preparations for the typhoon as it nears as a direct hit may have a "serious" impact on the city, acting Secretary for Security Lai Tung-kwok said today.
Chevron Closes Terminal
Chevron Corp. suspended unloading oil at its terminal at Tsing Yi in Hong Kong until the typhoon passes, spokeswoman Emily Lo said in a phone interview.
"The Hong Kong terminal is closed along with the fuel terminals," said Dennis Lee, a shipping manager for agents Gulf Agency Company (Hong Kong) Ltd. "The tankers there have had to move from the anchorage areas to more sheltered waters."
Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd. doesn't expect serious disruptions from the typhoon as it approaches Hong Kong and operations should be normal for the next 24 hours, it said in an e-mailed statement. Some flight delays or diversions may be possible later tomorrow, the company said.
In China, where flooding has left at least 2,000 people dead this year, authorities ordered passenger train services to and from Hainan province to resume after they were suspended on Oct. 19, the official Xinhua News Agency reported today. Megi's impact is expected to be less than forecast, the report said.
China National Offshore Oil Corp. shut some of its offshore oil and gas wells, the company's listed arm Cnooc Ltd. said in an e-mailed statement without giving further details.
" If there is any significant impact on production facilities, the company will disclose it according to the relevant rules," the statement said.
Shenzhen Reported Shut
China's port of Shenzhen was shut as Megi moves closer to land, Reuters reported today, citing an unidentified shipping and logistics agent in Shenzhen.
Megi may exacerbate conditions in the southern provinces of Hainan and Guangdong, where water levels remain high following earlier storms that damaged flood-control infrastructure, according to the water resources ministry's website.
Taiwanese authorities issued a sea and land warning as Megi approached, the Central Weather Bureau said in a statement.
Nineteen people died in the Philippines as the storm, which made landfall as a supertyphoon on Oct. 18, passed over Luzon, the National Disaster council said today.
Megi is estimated to have caused about 4.8 billion Philippine pesos ($111 million) of damage to infrastructure, agriculture, fisheries and schools, the statement said. The world's biggest rice importer lost 314,000 tons of unmilled grain, Agriculture Undersecretary Joel Rudinas said today.
Megi, or catfish in Korean, is the 15th storm of the northwest Pacific season. The U.S. center is also monitoring two weather systems in the Pacific north and east of Saipan that may develop into cyclones within 12 to 24 hours.

Susan Walsh, Associated Press
AKRON, Ohio — The presidential campaign marched into the heat of summer with a stand-pat unemployment report Friday as President Barack Obama continued on a two-day tour of a pair of hotly contested battlegrounds whose modest economic gains he hopes to leverage into a case for his re-election.
The president's travels through northeastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania came as the government issued new numbers that showed only 80,000 jobs created, leaving the jobless rate at 8.2 percent for a second month in a row. With politics and the economy closely intertwined, the numbers set a new standard from which to judge the president and for Republican rival Mitt Romney to attempt to exploit with Election Day only four months away.
Obama began the day going after votes over a little eggs and grits, taking up a stool at Ann's Place, a local restaurant. He was to address the news jobs numbers later in the morning at a school event in Ohio. Romney also planned to comment on the numbers Friday morning.
Romney remained at his New Hampshire vacation home amid growing anxiety among conservatives that he was not being aggressive enough and was squandering his opportunity to win in November. Republicans worry that Obama's attacks against Romney are taking their toll on the challenger and right-leaning leaders in business and the media is presenting a muddled case for his presidency despite a weak economy.
On his tour, Obama was promoting policies that he says have helped states such as Pennsylvania and Ohio, particularly the government bailout of Chrysler and General Motors.
"We saved an auto industry. That saved hundreds of thousands of jobs here in Ohio," Obama said in an interview with NBC affiliate WLWT in Cincinnati that was aired Friday. "We passed a health care law that's going to mean security for Ohioans."
Obama questioned Romney's motives on health care in the same interview, accusing his rival of caving under pressure from conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh for saying that requiring all Americans to buy health insurance amounts to a tax.
Romney said Wednesday the Supreme Court ruled the requirement to buy health insurance was a tax, which amounted to a shift in his position. Earlier in the week, senior adviser Eric Fehrnstrom said Romney viewed the mandate as a penalty, a fee or a fine — not a tax.
"So the question becomes, are you doing that because of politics?" Obama said. "Are you abandoning a principle that you fought for, for six years simply because you're getting pressure for two days from Rush Limbaugh or some critics in Washington?"
The jobless numbers promised to command attention Friday and determine the nature of the political debate. The unemployment and hiring figures provide monthly milestones with which to measure the human toll of the weak economic recovery.
Republicans were quick to pounce on the report, declaring that Obama's policies had failed.
"The president bet on a failed 'stimulus' spending binge that led to 41 months of unemployment above 8 percent," House Speaker John Boehner said Friday. "He bet on a government takeover of health care that's driving up costs and making it harder for small businesses to hire."
Democrats sought to capitalize on the jobs created, which at 80,000 is not enough to keep up with population growth but sustains a string of months where the private sector has increased hiring.
"With the private sector continuing to create jobs for the twenty-eighth consecutive month, our economic recovery continues to push forward," Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, the second ranking Democrat in the House, said in a statement.

Paris Alone
... are rude!) I eventually got some and was off, now the french underground is yuck! Smelt like putrid wees (hahahahhaha yes Kylie P it was that bad!) I got on with my *****y resting face and confidence of yes I know where I'm going and made it to the stop where I had been told a mall was. I was hoping for some familiar food and clothes places, mmmm lets just say yes they were familiar clothes and beauty places but I was gonna need some serious ...
... really trumped the odd seating arrangement.
Having finally placed our order, I began to have fun observing the whole scenario and grew more amused rather than confused as the waitress set the ground rules for ordering with the six patrons across the aisle. With military precision she pointed to the first patron seated against the wall and called out, in English, "You, then you, then you" as she pointed one-by one up the line of people on ...
Christmas In Paris!
... didn't order any of the specialty of the house, she did reluctantly try some of mine and was forced to admit that it was absolutely delicious. Both of our main dishes were exceptional, although Bree's confit won out as the dish of the evening. The rain had really picked up at this point and so feeling very full and happy we huddled inside the entry way of the restaurant, waiting for our taxi to bring us back to our home away from home for the night.
Monet & Laduree
Today started with a bit of a sleep in and rain unfortunately. Our first stop today was at Museum de L'Orangerie to see Monet's waterlilies. The 8 large paintings are housed in two large oval shaped rooms, so it feels like you are surrounded by the paintings. This is how Monet intended for these paintings to be viewed as it shows how the waterlilies change according to the time of day and the light. We then went to Notre ...
... have ended up with a nice portrait we can frame when we get home. After all that it was about 3:30 so we decided it was time for Dunch (dinner and lunch). We had a couple of pizza's with a side of cider at one of the nearby restaurants. If that is how the french make pizza then I can't wait for Italy! It was so good neither of us wanted to stop eating. Now we're back in our hotel getting ready for Disneyland ...

All quotes tagged Opinion
(1958 quotes found)
"When you approach a problem, strip yourself of preconceived opinions and prejudice, assemble and learn the facts of the situation, make the decision which seems to you to be the most honest, and then stick to it"
"If you must tell me your opinions, tell me what you believe in. I have plenty of doubts of my own."
"For having lived long, I have experienced many instances of being obliged, by better information or fuller consideration, to change opinions, even on important subjects, which I once thought right but found to be otherwise."
"When we are debating an issue, loyalty means giving me your honest opinion, whether you think I'll like it or not. Disagreement, at this stage, stimulates me. But once a decision has been made, the debate ends. From that point on, loyalty means executing the decision as if it were your own."
"The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd; indeed, in view of the silliness of the majority of mankind, a wide-spread belief is more likely to be foolish than sensible"
"One should respect public opinion insofar as is necessary to avoid starvation and keep out of prison, but anything that goes beyond this is voluntary submission to an unnecessary tyranny."
"Public Opinion... an attempt to organize the ignorance of the community, and to elevate it to the dignity of physical force."

For those of you who use FXCop
We run FXCop as part of our build and are in the process of 'deciding' which rules we'd like to apply (to begin with). The FXCop project file is in XML and i'm thinking on the lines of creating it dynamically so that it uses the 'current' set of applicable rules (or) apply all rules and filter the output using the applicable rules (and then have the build take the appropriate action - fail, log a bug...).
Apart from the rules themselves, i think it's important to also keep information on why certain rules apply and others don't (e.g. project uses it's own variable naming convention). You could just store this information in a doc, but then you'd need to keep FXCop project file in sync with the doc. Importing all rules into a db and tagging applicable ones and yes/no information, would make it easier to generate the FXCop project (i.e. the rules section) ; a web front-end could be a focal point for a team discussion on which rules apply - or is this overkill?

Diabetes Health Center
Diabetes Care: Moving Beyond Insulin
Levetan is an assistant clinical professor of medicine at George Washington University School of Medicine in Washington, and director of diabetes education at MedStar Health, a seven-hospital system. She is also associate editor of the ADA's journal Clinical Diabetes and a member of the board of directors of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists.
In one study, senior author Michael A. Nauck, MD, and colleagues gave eight people with type 2 diabetes GLP-1 continuously overnight, by intravenous injection. The hormone made their bodies produce insulin in the natural pattern that people without diabetes produce the hormone.
Early findings from this study offer hope that GLP-1 or similar compounds that have a longer duration of action could be used to help people with type 2 diabetes produce insulin normally, says Nauck, from the department of internal medicine at Ruhr University, Diabeteszentrum, in Bad Lauterberg, Germany.
In another study, Riccardo Perfetti, MD, PhD, and colleagues from the division of endocrinology and metabolism at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles demonstrated that placing immature pancreatic cells in contact with GLP-1 makes them turn into insulin-producing beta cells.
"Once [the cells] acquire the ability to make insulin," Perfetti tells WebMD, "they also learn how to respond to glucose. This is a key point because ... these cells shut off their production of insulin if there is no need for it."
Both studies are published in the April issue of the medical journal Diabetes.
Based on these early findings, says Dariush Elahi, PhD, GLP-1, "might cure diabetes if it does what everyone thinks it does. ... But there are problems. Now you have new beta cells, ... but something happened before that made them go away. Can you stop it from happening again?"
Elahi is associate professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School and director of the geriatrics research lab at Massachusetts General Hospital, in Boston.
In response to this, Perfetti says that research into transplanting insulin-producing cells into people with diabetes has addressed this problem with drugs that block the immune system so that it doesn't attack the new beta cells.

- 2 teaspoons canola oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch finely grated orange zest
Spiced Walnut Yogurt Sauce
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- 1 teaspoon grated orange zest
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1⁄4 cup finely chopped walnuts, toasted
- Heat grill to high.

Such a good and healthy dessert. Although, I did add extra honey to the yogurt...I couldn't help myself! My son and I both agreed that the grilled plums would be excellent with vanilla ice cream, too!! ~Made for Zee Zesties for the ZWT6~
We loved the flavors in this dessert! So easy to prepare and it made a lovely presentation in the bowl. Made for the X-tra Hot Dishes
This was a nice light dessert. I used apriplums (a new apricot/plum hybrid I found, looks like an apricot but has the taste of a plum). Overall the dish was really tangy. We added a little sugar to the yogurt and some extra orange juice.

Three-tier middleware architecture is commonly used for hosting enterprise-distributed applications. Typically, the application is decomposed into three layers: front end, middle tier, and back end. Front end ("Web server") is responsible for handling user interactions and acts as a client of the middle tier, while back end provides storage facilities for applications. Middle tier ("application server") is usually the place where all computations are performed. One of the benefits of this architecture is that it allows flexible management of a cluster of computers for performance and scalability; further, availability measures, such as replication, can be introduced in each tier in an application-specific manner. However, incorporation of availability measures in a multitier system poses challenging system design problems of integrating open, nonproprietary solutions to transparent failover, exactly once execution of client requests, nonblocking transaction processing, and an ability to work with clusters. This paper describes how replication for availability can be incorporated within the middle and back-end tiers, meeting all these challenges. This paper develops an approach that requires enhancements to the middle tier only for supporting replication of both the middleware back-end tiers. The design, implementation, and performance evaluation of such a middle-tier-based replication scheme for multidatabase transactions on a widely deployed open source application server (JBoss) are presented.
