NEW YORK -- What's more important, degree of difficulty or the magnitude of the moment?
Even Roger Federer couldn't say which of his between-the-legs shots was better, the one Monday night against Brian Dabul in the first round of the U.S. Open, or last year's semifinal tweener against Novak Djokovic.
Federer, a five-time U.S. Open champ, had trouble deciding which of his babies he loved more, so he went into detail about both.
On the one hand, last year's was pretty pivotal.
"Obviously the importance of last year's was probably a little bit more important just because I think it was love-30 to go love-40, two points away from the match, and it was a semifinal," Federer said.
On the other hand, Monday's was pretty difficult.
"I had the feeling I had to run a longer distance and I was further back somehow, I felt," Federer said. "I had to really give the last big push at the end. I didn't have time to set it up. So I felt like this one was incredible again. I turned around and couldn't believe the shot landed in the corner."
Luckily, fans can check the tape of both shots, and debate the merits of a passing shot like the one that blew by Djokovic, to a corner winner that left Dabul to shake his head. Clearly, Federer had more distance to cover Monday night, and the shot landed closer to the line.
"I had good contact, perfect speed and hit and everything," Federer said of this year's version. "I kind of like it when the ball gets away from me a little bit, so I hit it [when] it's lower, because then I can generate more pace off it. The thing is, by the time I turn around it's already in the corner of the court on the other side, so I'm almost looking for the ball first up. And then I just -- I'm not even sure if I saw the bounce or not, and then obviously the crowd gave me the answer, which was kind of good."
The advantage the crowd at Arthur Ashe Stadium had this season was experience. Monday night, one announcer even called a tweener as Federer ran to the baseline to make the shot -- and there was reason to believe the No. 2 seed could turn it into a winner, even with a higher degree of difficulty.
The beauty of the between-the-legs shot is that it can only be used in certain moments, as a last resort once the ball has nearly gotten away from a player. Most of those shots are impressive, but ultimately bound for the net.
Federer is accumulating his own highlight reel of those shots, and the U.S. Open has barely gotten started.

ARTISTS PROFILE ---------- I grew up in Florida and lived there through out childhood untill age of 12 at which time I relocated to Chicago. I was always drawing and painting in childhood but stopped for some time in my late teens and beacame reaquainted with my love of art in my early 20s of which I then developed a love particularily in painting. Living in Florida in the keys and residing in Chicago for the latter part of my life has fostered a love of nature in many aspects with me which fuels my inspiration. I spend most of my time with spiritual meditatve practice which does include my time with painting. I enjoy nature shows,movies that uplift the heart and occasional fantasy. I like to spend time in meditation,quiet and walks in nature. I believe in peace and non violence. I love to paint still-lifes,landscapes,birds,scenery in general and spiritual in nature type of scenes and sometimes once in a while portraiture/figures. My favorite medium to work in is oil ,acrylic and occasionally watercolor. I love to work in a somewhat realistic impressionism style in painting type. I currently reside in Chicago Il. with my spouse living a wonderfully happy life. ARTISTS STATEMENT ---------- I'm a self taught artist who has studied the great masters of Dutch & Flemish realism and impressionists of different eras. Some of my favorites are Vermeer ,The Kalft family,Sargent,Renoir and Monet and David Leffel and Richard Schmid of the current century to name a few. These Greats inspire me to reach for high standard quality painting. Im an artist interested in only one thing,that is to produce original paintings that are one of a kind. In my paintings both hand made and digital I strive for rich color,and harmony with lighting,hue,shape,edges which I studied in Eastern philosophies in painting regarding color and space and lighting etc. which I apply to Western subject painting techniques and matter. My paintings look great in many settings,formal to country casual,from traditional to contemporary,from American to European and more. It is also important to me to create beautiful works to uplift ones spirit to serenity, calm and just sheer delight in color and form and how the spiritual quality of light plays on the subject matter creating paintings that transcend the everyday mundane existance of subjects in a world lit with light imparting to the subject a regal existance of validity that in most eveyday life is overlooked by most because of a busy paced world. A painting stops you and can transport you to seeing, really seeing the beauty of existance around you. I believe that art is an alternative language that is universal. No words are needed. It is as old as time and as relative as the earth is round. I believe in the power of art to conceal, to heal, to reveal and to concieve. My work represents the ever revolving door of the human mind's desire to dream, and imagine, to examine and determine.My work is of me and is me. It has always been and will always remain me and the world as I precieve it. I will continue to create for the pure pleasure I get from creating what is uniquely mine, as it is concieved and birthed in my mind's eye. This is my oath to myself and to all who may find a moment of beauty or mystery in my work.

Ryan perfects the Big Lie
At his party's convention in Tampa last night GOP Vice Presidential candidate Paul Ryan rolled out, Orwellian-style, what just might be the biggest lie yet in the 2012 election campaign.
Rock band to Romney: "Stop using our music!"
The band made it clear they did not support President Obama's Republican opponent.
Ryan's home-staters take the lead in exposing him
The Ryan pick was intended to galvanize the right-wing base, but amusingly, it is actually Republicans who have mapped the road against Ryan.
Republicans fear Ryan pick could sink GOP
Congressional Republicans aren't admitting it, but they are nervous as hell about Paul Ryan being the party's VP nominee.
Unions on Romney's VP choice: Wrong for America
"As CEO of Bain Capital, Romney made his fortune by hollowing out the dreams of ordinary American workers. The Romney-Ryan budget would wreak the same kind of economic damage on households nationwide."
Generation Opportunity: another Republican stealth group
Generation Opportunity says it is a nonpartisan, 501c4 organization. That means it is tax-exempt, and while it engages in political advocacy, it does not have to disclose its donors.

Casey Abrams American Idol: Will He Survive This Week?TheMommyologist
Casey Abrams got a huge break on American Idol last week. On the elimination show, he was the person with the lowest number of votes, much to everyone's surprise!
At the last minute, Steven Tyler, Randy Jackson, and Jennifer Lopez decided to use their one "save" of the season to keep Casey Abrams on American Idol. Will he be able to survive this week?
Casey Abrams has been a front runner on Idol all season, and he has delivered some performances that were far superior than the other contestants. How did he wind up in last place anyway?
Tonight's theme is Elton John songs…hopefully Casey brings it home!

Last night, Hollywood said thank you to the fans who voted a record breaking 175 million times for all of their favorites. That's right, the People's Choice Awards kicked off award show season with a bang on CBS. Hosted by Queen Latifah she started the show off with a random, irrelevant song and dance number which really confused me. It wasn't an original song, nor a parody. Just Queen Latifah doing a terrible cover of the year's hit song, Dynamite by Taio Cruz. The dancers on stage were good but her opening really served no purpose.
Besides our host, the stars really turned it out for a night on the town. The gowns from the ladies were extraordinary and the men looked dapper in their suits and ties. New dads Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka sat in the front row along with the Kardashians, Hellcats co-stars Aly Michalka & Ashley Tisdale and straight off the plane to the red carpet were the famous trio from the Twilight series.
Voting had closed before the new year except for two categories: Favorite New TV Drama and Favorite New TV Comedy. We were also treated to a few performances in the evening. Selena Gomez & The Scene who were voted best breakout artist this year performed their hit A Year Without Rain and hip hop/rock/country superstar Kid Rock also knocked out a stellar performance. But most importantly… WHO WON?
Favorite TV Comedy Actress: Jane Lynch
Favorite TV Comedy Actor: Neil Patrick Harris
Favorite TV Comedy: Glee
Favorite R&B Artist: Usher
Favorite Country Artist: Taylor Swift
Favorite Pop Artist Rihanna
Favorite TV Drama Actor: Hugh Laurie
Favorite TV Drama Actress: Lisa Edelstein
Favorite TV Drama: House
Favorite Female Artist: Katy Perry
Favorite Male Artist: Eminem
Favorite Movie Star Under 25: Zac Efron
Favorite Talkshow Host: Conan O'Brien
Favorite Comedic Star: Adam Sandler
Favorite TV Guilty Pleasure: Keeping Up With The Kardashians
Favorite New TV Drama: Hawaii Five-O
Favorite New TV Comedy: Sh** My Dad Says
Favorite Move Actor: Johnny Depp
Favorite Movie Actress: Kristen Stewart
Favorite Movie: The Twilight Saga: Eclipse
And that's not all. For the list of ALL the nights winners as well as highlights from the red carpet, backstage and more, head to the official People's Choice website for all the details.

The problem I'm having is that I've set pages with some content and a shopping basket that all worked fine. I then wanted to add another page but I want it to appear in a specific order in my sidebar.
Is there a way to order the list? I've tried changing the page order when editing my pages and I can't see that that did anything.

Dear Human,
I have worked with the finest furry tailors in the world, and am here to share my bounty of knowledge. Here's how to measure your pet...
Measure from the base of the tail (where it connects to the hindquarters) up to where the collar typically sits at the base of the neck, then follow up with a generous back scratch.
This is measured by giving your pet a
hug, during which you measure the entire circumference (all the way around) at the widest point of your pet's chest. This is typically right behind the front legs.
First, plenty of kisses. Then, measure the neck's circumference
(the distance around it) at the point where the collar sits.

Last season saw the release of two new Naxos discs by Falletta with each of the Buffalo Philharmonic and the Ulster Orchestra. She recorded seven additional Naxos discs last season, including two with the London Symphony.

Europe Repeating Same Mistakes in Crisis Handling, Katainen Says
Finnish Prime Minister Jyrki Katainen said he is afraid Europe is repeating the "same mistakes" in its handling of the debt crisis as efforts to contain the region's turmoil falter.
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions," Katainen said today in a speech in Tampere, Finland. "Markets are not good or bad, they are logical."
European finance chiefs will today work on the details of plans to increase the muscle of the European Financial Stability Facility in a bid to shield countries such as Italy and Spain from the spread of the debt crisis. Leveraging the fund would aim to boost its spending capacity to 1 trillion euros ($1.4 trillion).
European Union treaties need to be "more realistic, not idealistic," Katainen said, adding that the region is considering changes to the treaty to help end the turmoil.
Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou yesterday agreed to step down to allow the creation of a national unity government intended to secure international financing and avert a collapse of the country's economy.
In Italy, Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi faced pressure to quit as the country's 10-year borrowing costs approached the 7 percent level that forced Greece, Ireland and Portugal to seek bailouts.
It is imperative that EU members stick to the bloc's fiscal rules, Katainen said, adding that a Greek rejection of the nation's bailout terms would only result in deeper cuts and that Italy must deliver the austerity measures that it has pledged.
Resolving Europe's debt crisis is of the "utmost urgency," he said.

now ade is on his way back when we have him he takes dempseys role and that means bale/holtby left and centre with no changes to the rest of the team till sandro and kabs are fit.
walker daws verts bae

but when all are fit
walker kabs verts bea
sandro dembele

it wold be a shame to see ble move out wide as he is blistering in that central role he is taking up.
dempsey has to play upfront hes a recognised striker and scores. ok not a world beater but a striker none the less. for me i would go with dempsey upfront and bale and holtby alternating from wide to central as the game goes on.bale to start out wide left and drift , wouldnt change the rest of the team till sandro and kaboul are fit.

1) kaboul or parker , but i think kaboul pips it with some solid commanding displays.
2) maybe not improved player but improved position,right back. we finaly have a class right back in walker.
3) modric staying and then going on a 11 game run without lose
4) walkers against arsenal or bea's cracker
5) wins against arsenal and newcastle
6) 2-1 vs arsenal
7) have to agree on levy's comments about we are not selling our players.
8) that we didnt finish 3rd, i was sure we would.
9) some BIG signings coming in and to finaly beat man utd
10) fa cup and 3rd.

Not angry thoughts...by Sfer Feb 27, 2012 09:35benidorm spur benidorm spur Feb 28, 2012 17:07 Flag
im a big bea fan i think that he has been so improved in the last 2-3 years and one of the most solid players in our team. yes he is a bit daft at times with his control but his overall play has saved us games and won us games.
i think against the arse he was shocking , but so was most of the team. bales wondering around meant less of an outlet ball cos he would go walk about. plus i thougt he was to blame for not closing sagna down for the goal. i think his wondering exposses bea and its harsh to blame him totally for all of the game.
king was slow and looked a bit lost, walker to keen to bomb forward ,kaboul looked slow, so the whole back four didnt look up for it.
but in myu opinion we lost the game in the midfield, they won all the loose balls and passed right through us. modric and parker were tore apart, and then the man who came on to shore it up fucked of to be a striker. sandro was appalling when he came on . did any one see daws tear him a new on when he came on?
our midfield was ripped apart and that expossed the back four to much. i cant believe that the players who they played did a number onb our team. rociskey and arteta and walcott have been shocking for ages and then all of the sudden they turn in to barca.
bad bad game for every one , mangers players and fans. harry got it wrong with his subs for me, and the players didnt show up in the second half.
need to bounce back , but will be hard against man utd.lets hope the whl faithfull inspire a fight.

admitting nervesby benidorm spur Feb 25, 2012 13:28benidorm spur benidorm spur Feb 26, 2012 02:01 Flag
defo, i think we have the chance to really show we are top dogs in london this season and that should spur them on.
good to see we have all the big players fit and a full team to play, they have injuries to most of their defenders so if there was every a chance to beat them at theirs this is it imho.
2-0 spurs , 2-1 if rvp turns up. but a win in any case.
- benidorm spur by benidorm spur Feb 25, 2012 13:28 Flag
ok so we are favourites for the match according to sky sports pundits( all apart from charlie the cunt) arsenal are being wrote off against our team , people are saying that we should win this.
is any one else nervous that this has happened before and we have lost. i have confidence in the team and harry, i think our midfield with modric and parker will boss arteta and co all day. but i guess the old spurs nerves are getting the better of me.
i want a win so badly like all spurs fans and spurs winning will do so much for us and also write of the their season.
anyway nerves aside my head is saying 2-1 to us but my heart is wary of a cornered animal.

totally agree, its the kind of message that i have been trying to get across for a while. i do understand the dreaded feeling of playing the old top 4 in the epl cos we had such a dreadfull record. but it has improved drasticly and i feel those teams will nolonger see us as a home banker but as a team that can and will take 3 points of u if u give us the chance.

Tottenham 5 Newcastle 0by RAMBR0 Feb 12, 2012 01:05benidorm spur benidorm spur Feb 12, 2012 20:13 Flag
only just watched the game as i was working, so i recorded it and finally sat down.
wow wow wow what a game for us spurs fans. alot has been said about individual names but personally i would give them all 10 out of 10. i thought ade destroyed newcastle,saha was the missing striker in the middle we have missed(cos of formations etc) and the midfield was solid and kept the ball so well.
i think the unsung hero of the game was friedel who onyl had to make a couple of saves but didnt lose concentration with not having a lot to do.
love seeing king and daws in the middle of defense, my fav pairing and they were solid again.10 clean sheets for the season and 2 in a row.
loved seeing niko make the most of his starts in the team and then having defoe and lennon come on as subs must of made newcastle wet themselves. what a bench we have and players are taking the opportunities when them get them.
so many positives to take from the game , yes they had there 2 best midfielders missing but thats the EPL for you. great to see 5 goals, amazing to hear the crowd sing so loud and for so long.
in cloud nine right now ,cant wait to see nelsen,the young south african possibly,livermore and a few others get a game at stevenage and then bring on the arsenal.

Dirty players at the Lane.by longtimespur Feb 8, 2012 11:17benidorm spur benidorm spur Feb 8, 2012 11:50 Flag
players like ruddock , zokora, tarrico and fruend could all tackle but i dont think there has ever been a player i would call a dirty player. no one like roy keane or vinny jones.
i think the tradition of playing good football has always meant we have footballers and not thugs. i coul dbe wrong but i cant think of any one thats ever played that was a dirty player.
- benidorm spur benidorm spur Feb 7, 2012 22:45 Flag
for where he kicks him and where the ball is i would say it is deliberate. its shows hes a dirty fouling low life. i hope they look back at it and ban him more
im hoping that the arses next 2 games hurts them bad and we get a few of our boys back before that game. i think with the backbone we showed in the pool game can drive us on to another win against the enemy.
- benidorm spur benidorm spur Feb 7, 2012 22:00 Flag
totaly agree Joe, to add to all the other stuff he goes and boots parker. daws put on his twitter page suarez called him a white honkey. not sure if hes having a laugh but im not ruling it out.
i grew up watching liverpool through the 80's when they were good. a few mates supported them as they were the man utd of the time and i always watched and kept up with there results even till recently. but now with kk and his bad attitude ive switched off and hope they slip down the league.
does anyone know if anything can come of the kick on parker??
- benidorm spur benidorm spur Feb 7, 2012 20:30 Flag
have to say the jol years are one of my fav tottenham periods. i love the big fella and loved the football we played. daws and king sums that time up as they were amazing and fit nearly all the time.
they love king kenny up here, hes a legend and cant do anything wrong. any time u criticise anything they all just throw 18 titles and 5 euro trophys at you. i think they forget man utd have 19 now. it has actually made me lose respect for lfc as kennys smart arse comments are letting the club down imho.
but im kind of safe the wife is a blue so want us to win last night.lol
- benidorm spur benidorm spur Feb 7, 2012 12:57 Flag
yeah joe i live in liverpool. its been a battle all night and morning. they are saying we sat back and bale dived, i just asked whats worse bale diving or suarez kicking parker and then reminded them of the poolvs city game. we all know people have short memorys.
i think we have to give a certain amount of credit to pool as then penned us back and got at us. i am as ive said very impressed at the back bone and work we show when we arnt getting it all our way.
loved seeing daws and king playing , they are my favourite pairing and so solid. i know kaboul has been immense but daws and king are my pick.
- benidorm spur benidorm spur Feb 7, 2012 01:38 Flag
joe after reading all the posts i feel u have hit the nail on the head with all u said.
loved havin daws and king in the centre. they are always solid together and i thought they did a amazing job.i noticed tonight we got to pretty much all the second balls or knock downs. it showed a stregnth that is rapidly becoming a everyday part to our game and not just a one off.
i thought the midfield of livermore ,modric and parker were out of this world. livermore really putin a mature performance and is growing into a class player. modrics touch is brilliant and parker was there to clean up any threats. defo motm for me.
off game for bale ,but i think we can let him off and a ok game for niko,walker and co.
defo would have liked to have seen saha up with ade. he needed soem help and i think we could of benifited from taking niko rather then jake off and played modric on the left bale right and then 2 upfront.
does anyone think that if arry had been there we might of gone for it and kevin and the boys didnt want to lose??? just a thought.
there are 2 things im taking from this game 1, we took 4 points and 2 clean sheets of liverpool. and 2, we have shown that we have strength in our squad and the will and passion to succed. this was defo a game we would have lost a few years ago and i know i have said it before but it shows progress and that counts for a lot.

a statement released today saying we are pulling out for breach of regulations. liverpool are now in the semis.
anyone know why?????
- benidorm spur by benidorm spur Feb 3, 2012 02:47 Flag
just seen bentley might be back in the spurs line up soon. i know that we all have wrote him off as not good enough and a show boater with no follow through, but with the injuries we have and the poor transfer window why not play him?
id like to think niko,livermore and sandro are all ahead of him as far as subs are concerned but he could add that natural right hand width we miss when lennon is missing. cant see him getting too much pitch time as arry doesnt even give gio a chance in the league . but im not against him back in the squad , might help us get shot of him next transfer window.
any thoughts???

i dont believe kentish is happy with insults SB, and i think jimmy went too far with his reply. but u have pissed most people off with how u come across and u . i dont want a row but ur response to kentish was a typical defense cat trapped in a corner SB response.
if we dont agree with ur post its no that ur wrong its just we dont agree, ur reviews on the games and indepth and u hit the nail on the head at times but ur posts come across as stating facts and that u possible cant be wrong. thats my opinion.

i havent seen the game yet but have heard it wasnt good.
maybe im a stupid postive fool but this last 2 years weve been winnng or drawing games when we play rubbish. this is for the first time in a long time. so for all the bad points in the game to be in the next round and where we r in the league i will take a sh1t game or 3 as long as we win or get through.

Fragment (Mass Market Paperbound)
June 2009 Indie Next List
"If you are looking for the heir to Michael Crichton, look no further than Warren Fahy. This gruesome and fascinating debut highlights cutting-edge science and time-tested action as we go exploring the genetic cesspool that is Henders Island. A great summer read."
— Katie Glasgow, Mitchell Books, Fort Wayne, IN
Aboard a long-range research vessel, in the vast reaches of the South Pacific, the cast and crew of the reality show Sealife believe they have found a ratings bonanza. For a director dying for drama, a distress call from Henders Island a mere blip on any radar might be just the ticket. Until the first scientist sets foot on Henders and the ultimate test of survival begins.
For when they reach the island's shores, the scientists are utterly unprepared for what they find creatures unlike any ever recorded in natural history. This is not a lost world frozen in time; this is Earth as it might have looked after evolving on a separate path for half a billion years" "a fragment of a lost continent, with an ecosystem that could topple ours like a house of cards.
About the Author
WARREN FAHY has been a bookseller, editor, and a lead writer for Rockstar Games's "Red Dead Revolver" and WowWee Robotics. He is the author of "Fragment" (nominated for a BSFA and an International Thriller Award) and other works. He currently resides in San Diego, California.
Praise For…
"Fahy's imaginative debut puts a fresh spin on the survival-of-prehistoric-beasts theme popularized by Jurassic Park."—Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Fast-paced action adventure with a speculative scientific edge…this debut thriller effectively combines bone-chomping, blood-spurting action-adventure mayhem with intriguing (if improbable) scientific speculation."—Library Journal
"A perfect read for poolside this summer…Fragment closely follows the patented Michael Crichton style."—Booklist
"Showcases the talents of a new novelist with a flair for forward-charging narrative. The details seem brilliantly researched, and the observations could be those of a sharp-minded student of biology."—Dallas Morning News

Look! 70's Vintage Wallpaper Lampshades
Of all the decades, we've never been particularly fond of 1970's decor. Perhaps it's flashbacks of our own early childhood, filled with suburban memories of dirty mustards and pond scum greens, dark wall to wall carpeting, and all sort of furnishings that looked straight out of Ralph Furley's apartment. But we admit, of late we've been warming up to many of the prints and patterns of the era, like these Etsy lampshades...
Handmade in Italy with authentic vintage papers, Etsy seller WHEN IN DOUBT DRAW FLOWERS offers eight different patterns in different sizes, ranging from $69.70-$250.

2013 a year of growth for port
Cargo volumes at the Port of Long Beach rose 11.3 percent last year, making 2013 the port's third-busiest year behind the two-year period prior to the Great Recession, the port said Thursday.
Cargo volumes increased to 6.73 million containers in 2013 but were still below the record years seen in 2006 and 2007.
Meanwhile, at the Port of Los Angeles, container volumes declined 2.59 percent to 7.86 million in 2013 versus slightly more than 8 million containers in 2012, said the Port of Los Angeles in a separate statement.
For the Port of Long Beach, imports were up 12.8 percent to 3.45 million, and exports rose 10.7 percent to 1.7 million and empties were up 8.8 percent to 1.57 million. With imports exceeding exports, empty containers are sent overseas to be refilled with goods.
Shipping container volume rose in the Port of Long Beach partly because major shipping lines started to increase their service to Long Beach at the end of 2012. December 2013 saw a slight dip in imports, but overall it finished with a 4 percent increase that month compared with the same month in 2012.
The Port of Los Angeles recorded volumes increasing 11.09 percent in December to 653,358, up from 588,154 seen in the same month in 2012. The increase is due in part to shippers moving cargo in advance of the Chinese New Year, which this year will take place Jan. 31.

About TheResidentSkeptic
CTO, Rv'er, biker, pilot, total geek. Real grey-haired CTO who still codes because I enjoy it - and because it annoys the hell out of the little day coders that the old fart can out-code 'em.
... all the aliens out searching the universe for intelligent life read stories like this, and check the "not found on the 3rd rock" box...
Irrelevant: The combination of Verizon + AOL + Yahoo.
No wonder they need a backdoor:
..is that they have no clue why the ratings and viewership keep dropping.
When it was all about the sports and the athletes, it was great to watch.
Now that the Olympics is all about lawyers and profit - I have no desire at all to watch their tightly controlled version.
I'll wait for the youtube highlights (that should piss 'em off)
Although I'm getting senile here in my old age, I do recall that ALL the early games had the cheats built-in - even Castle Wolfenstein 3D had a "god mode" cheat so you could play all day.
Are they just mad that the externally made cheats are better than their own cheat codes?
well - then HIRE the cheat developers! Build 'em in and control them.
Tilting at windmills rarely works out well.
... so how much can I sue for?
it will not get better. As long as conduit and content are controlled by the same entity, there is only a reason to fight for the status quo.
If we ever got to the point that broadband was considered and handled as a utility service - and content over that utility service was handled by content providers - then these issues would become irrelevant.
Thank God the electric company doesn't "rent" us all the electrical devices in our homes or control which brands we can buy...
"we have this fee we might charge you - but you can avoid it by paying us $30/month".
"your business might burn down - but you can avoid it by paying us $30/month"
Guess they did learn from history.
...are the ones who print effusive praise of my leadership.
As every 100KB book lent out will have 1.21GB of "DRM" and other protective code on it to prevent it being copied/shared again; and built-in delete code to remove it from the device at the end of the 24-hour lending period; and code to detect when/where it is read and by whom...
The proletariat is lucky to be allowed to cast their vote - at least the voting card isn't pre-punched with their decision on it.
We are nearly at the point of "Thank you for coming. Your vote has already been recorded".
If the machines were transparent, then the voters actual chosen candidate would win the election.
We can't have that.

Their advertisers will love the cut in rates due to the Nielsen numbers tanking.
... every establishment (cafe, library, doctors offices) that used to buy a copy or three to share decides to cancel their subscriptions...
Or will they be ordered to keep purchasing, and locking the copies away so no one can read them?
What about families? Will a family have to purchase one copy for each person in the family who can read? So with Mom, Dad, and 3 kids they have to buy 5 papers? Per day or just the Sunday Edition?
I was so wrong. I didn't realize that "Idiocracy" was a documentary..
I have seen your ads.

Oklahoma Tourist Bureau declares bankruptcy.
Where do all the millions they give to politicians come from? Sales? Well, then seems to me that the authors are the ones getting screwed first here.
All the "middlemen" are the same - giving all creators as little as possible (nothing is the preferred amount), giving themselves incredible salaries, and buying off politicians to screw the public with more draconian laws.
"Collection" (s/b "shakedown") Societies are supposed to exist to ensure that creators are paid - so it should be illegal for them to spend anything on lobbying - they get an operational budget - and the rest must go to the artists.
Until the Authors/Artists/Creators start demanding that the publishers start paying THEM instead of POLITICIANS nothing will change.
Hmm... I seem to be dreaming. Time to wake up and go to work.
if google *doesn't* take down an infringing URL- they will get sued.
if google *does* take down a legitimate URL from a bogus DMCA request - they will get sued.
if google does *nothing* asked - they will get sued.
if google does *everything* asked - they will get sued.
Since they can't do the *magic* process of taking down only the "bad" ones...
It really looks like Google needs to change the rules. The only way to force that may be to take down CBS, NBC, *AA sites. Yes, they will get sued for doing so - but it may be the rule-changer that is needed.
Just think of how many people Google will have to hire - just for Erdogan.

As amazing as it would be, amplifiers and effects units just don't run on sweet guitar riffs and power chords. They need a steady stream of volts to keep doing their thing, and when those don't come from a battery, they've got to come from amplifiers and effects power supplies. Whether you're looking for something more reliable than a 9V cell, or if you're just sick of changing them all the time, you can find the solution right here in this section. From single-pedal wall warts to whole-pedalboard power supplies and even vacuum tube base adapters for your tube amps, the range of power accessories in this lineup is ready for just about anything.
All electronics perform better with cleaner power, and that includes effects units. That's one of the nice things about a power supply like the Eventide PowerFactor 2 - these boxes have built-in power conditioning to prevent unwanted noise getting into your signal. Maybe you're interested in a power supply for your pedalboard, but you have a few stompboxes that sound great when the battery is a little drained? No problem: just go for a model like the Voodoo Lab Pedal Power Mondo, with built-in "sag" outlets that simulate a low battery for those pedals that rock it.
If it's an amplifier you're looking to kit out, then naturally, the power supplies and accessories you choose will depend on what sort of amp you're dealing with and what you want to do with it. For instance, if you run a Special 6 and you want to reconfigure its 6V6 socket to use an EL84 tube instead, check out the VHT Special 6 EL84 Adapter. Do you use an Aguilar Tone Hammer Preamp/DI Box? In that case, save yourself from battery swaps by hooking it up using the Aguilar Tone Hammer Power Supply.
These are just a few examples of what amplifiers and effects power supplies and accessories can do for you, so don't hesitate to take a close look through the selection and see which options will work for your setup. They're the perfect way to turn your pedalboard from a battery-management nightmare to a simple plug'n'play solution, not to mention powering up your amps and preamps in brand new ways as well.

In many species, males are shorter-lived than females, and, mostly anecdotally, shorter lifespan was also attributed to Daphnia males. This does not necessarily stay in accordance with the biological roles of the sexes in Daphnia. Daphnia females maximize their fitness by maximizing the number of produced offspring, which incurs costs associated with quick attainment of large body size: metabolic costs of fast growth and increased risk of predation. In contrast, Daphnia males maximize fitness by maximizing the number of fertilized females, and seem to follow the strategy that enables them to maximize the lifetime female encounter rate, which should increase with lengthening lifespan. As arguments exist both in favour and against males living longer than females, we tested for differences in physiological lifespan of Daphnia magna males and females. Although maximum observed lifespan was always equal or longer in males than in females, no statistically significant differences were found. The results indicate that Daphnia males should not be considered short-lived anymore.

Pain Management Health Center
Anesthesia - Topic Overview
What are the risks and complications of anesthesia?
Major side effects and other problems of anesthesia aren't common, especially in people who are in good health.
But all anesthesia has some risk. For example:
- After general anesthesia heart problems, pneumonia, sore throat, or vomiting can occur.
- With high doses of local anesthesia, the anesthetic can go into the rest of the body and affect your brain or heart.
- After spinal anesthesia some people get headaches.
Your risk depends on the type of anesthesia you get, your age, your health, and how you respond to the medicines used. Some health problems, such as heart or lung disease, increase your chances of problems from anesthesia. Taking certain medicines, smoking, drinking alcohol, and using illegal drugs can also increase your chance of problems.
Your doctor or nurse will talk with you about the best type for you and will review risks, benefits, and other choices.
How can you prepare for anesthesia?
Your doctor or nurse will let you know what to do the night before and the day of the procedure. Here are some tips to help you prepare:
- Know when to stop eating and drinking. If you take any medicines regularly, ask your doctor or nurse about changes to your medicine routine for the day before or the day of your surgery.
- Try to stay calm. Many people are nervous before they have anesthesia and surgery. Mental relaxation methods, such as guided imagery or meditation, can help you relax. And some medicines can help you relax.
- Plan ahead for going home. Ask a friend or a family member to drive you home. Don't plan to drive yourself.
If your child is having surgery or a procedure, you can help him or her prepare. Let your child know what to expect. Be honest if he or she might feel pain. Be sure to tell your child that you will be close by.
What happens while you're under anesthesia and when you recover?
Before and during surgery, an anesthesia specialist will take charge of your comfort and safety. He or she will give you the anesthesia and closely monitor you. This means he or she will check your blood pressure, breathing, heart rate, and other vital body functions throughout the surgery. During surgery, the anesthesia specialist also will continue to give anesthesia to keep you free of pain.

I've had not done wine tasting in awhile. This place looks wonderful!
Too bad I have not tasted Anderson valley's wines!
I've tasted wines in this region, and find this cooler area produces some outstanding rieslings and pinot noirs.
I always thought Boonville was famous only for its beer and annual beer festival!

When Jacob Bollman graduated from Yellow Medicine East in 2005, he knew that he would have to go away to college but always intended on coming back. Having gained a degree in Optometry, the 27-year-old has obtained foundational credentials needed to begin family life--and with the assistance of Granite Falls Eye Care's, Todd Trudel, Bollman looks ready for success.
"We came back and started talking to Todd because we wanted to be back in the area and Todd's been a great resource for us," said Bollman of himself and his wife, Emmy. "We like the area, we like the people. There's nothing better."
The son of Economart owners, Dave and Jodi, Jacob was born and raised in Granite Falls. In ninth grade he started dating fellow freshman, Emmy Lynner, the daughter of Pam and Jim of Clarkfield, and in 2009, following their schooling at Concordia, Moorhead, the pair was wed.
Earning a degree in Social Work and a Bachelor of Science, respectively, Emmy would accompany Jacob to Forest Grove, Oregon where her husband would go on to complete his schooling at the Pacific University College of Optometry.
Returning to the area this past May, the two have been living at the family farm in rural Clarkfield. There they have had their hands full raising their son, Thatcher, now 17 months old.They also have a golden retriever, Laney.
"We love it. We love the peacefulness of being out in the country," Bollman said.
Having known Trudel for years, the 23-year owner of Granite Falls Family Eyecare, was receptive to helping a fellow optometrist and community member get his feet wet.
"I've known Jake since he was really young and he comes from a great family, has always had a good work ethic and is just a nice young man," said Trudel. "I had availability a few days, and might be able to loop him in with another clinic. He's not only a good guy, he's a good doctor."
And for Bollman the feeling has been mutual, as Trudel has proved an exceedingly apt Optometrist.
"Todd's a great mentor," he said. "During a year of rotations I followed around four different optometrist and Todd is the smartest one I know. He's the most educated on things and I think the best thing I've learned from him is that you always have to keep the patient in mind––whether a big or small town you always have to do what's best for the patient. And he's just a great clinician. I learn more and more everyday.
At present, Bollman works at Trudel's Granite Falls office on Wednesdays and at his other office in Benson on Mondays. Otherwise he fills in on an as needed basis.
Page 2 of 2 - "Hopefully we stay in this area and, hopefully, with Todd. If we can get enough business to support both of us then that's how we'll do it," Bollman said. "For this year, we're going to see how it goes, but the best case scenario involves me working right here in Granite Falls.

Politics Soul Searching
posted by November 28 at 15:41 PMon
Looking for a way out of the night that set on Nov 7, a senior editor of National Review, Jeffrey Hart, makes the bold claim that G. W. Bush is not a conservative. The strange syllogism that produces this strange truth:
(Major premise) Conservatives are realists.
(Minor premise) Bush is not a realist.
(Conclusion) Bush is not a conservative.
Out of all Hart has to say and stress, this is the only passage worth pointing out:
Richard Cheney:
Once you get to Baghdad, it's not clear what you do with it. It's not clear what kind of government you put in place of the one that's currently there now. Is it going to be a Shia regime, a Sunni regime, a Kurdish regime? Or one that tilts toward the Baathists, or one that tilts toward Islamic fundamentalists? How much credibility is that going to have if it's set up by the American military there? How long does the United States military have to stay there to protect the people that sign on for that government, and what happens once we leave?
Smart man, that Cheney. The only problem is that he said that back in 1991 during the first Gulf War when he was secretary of defense in the administration of George H.W. Bush.

Get the real facts about seafood
Published: Sunday, April 17, 2011 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 15, 2011 at 4:37 p.m.
Fisheries and seafood topics provide a real "gumbo" of interesting facts, myths and misconceptions.
Add to this sauce some authentic Louisiana Cajun flavor, and what you've got is a well-seasoned helping of "Fish & Seafood Trivia."
Through the years, I've managed to compile quite a few bits and pieces of interesting fisheries facts — trivia if you will. Here are some of the more interesting items I've come across. See how many you can answer correctly.
Question: What is a "bouillabaisse"?
Answer: It is a highly seasoned — pepper and spices — stew of red snapper or redfish and various kinds of vegetables. In France, sturgeon and perch were used to prepare the dish. The name of this fish stew originates from Modern Provencal "bouliabaisso," which literally means boils and settles. "Bouli" is to boil and "abaisso" means to settle or subside.
Question: What fish is known as "Poisson Arme" — armed fish — by the Cajuns, and what is the significance of this name?
Answer: This is an appropriate name given to the garfish that inhabit Louisiana waters. The gar has long narrow jaws full of sharp teeth and its body is armored by a covering of hard protective scales. The Choctaw Indians knew the gar as "strong fish" — "nani kallo" or "nani kamussa." They made use of the gar's sharp teeth to scratch or bleed themselves and their pointed scales to arm their arrows. Today gar meat is highly prized by central and north Louisiana residents, and the scales are fashioned by innovative bayou dwellers into decorative plaques, napkin rings and other knick-knacks.
Question: What common Louisiana fish's name translates to "milk bag"?
Answer: Because of its silvery olive appearance and beautiful white flesh, French-speaking Cajuns call the White Crappie, Proxomis annularis, "sac-a-lait," meaning "bag of milk" or "milk bag."
Question: What is "Cajun Caviar" and from what fish does it come from?
Answer: "Cajun Caviar," as it is known, is caviar made from the roe (eggs) of the bowfin, Ami calva. Cajuns know this fish as "choupique." Choupique is a derivative of the Choctaw Indians' "shupik," which aptly means "mud fish."
Question: What is a "caiman" (pronounced KI-MOA) or "cocodrie" (pronounced COCO-DREE)?
Answer: These are Louisiana Cajun French names for the alligator.
Question: What is a "caouane" (pronounced COW-AN)?
Answer: It is the Cajun French name for the alligator snapping turtle, better known locally as a "loggerhead" because of the extremely large size of the head. Its circumference may reach up to 25 inches.
Question: How many species or different kinds of fish are there?
Answer: Scientists estimate that there are 20,000 to 40,000 species of fish found on Earth; many of these are still undiscovered.
Question: What is the world's largest fish?
Answer: That would be the whale shark. Measuring in at more than 50 feet long, it can weigh several tons.
Question: What is the world's smallest fish?
Answer: Growing to less than 1/2 inch at adulthood, the goby, found in lakes in Luzon, Philippines, qualifies as the smallest known fish.
Question: How can they tell how old a fish is?
Answer: There are two methods commonly used to age fish. Growth rings are counted on either fish scales or otoliths, small inner ear bones, in a manner similar to counting rings in a tree. The rings generally correspond to seasonal changes in the environment. Otolith ring counts are generally more accurate than scale ring counts due to the fact that scale rings are often influenced by other, nonseasonal factors.
Question: How long do fish live?
Answer: Some small reef fish live for only a few weeks or months, while other fish, such as sturgeons, have been known to live for 50 or more years.
Question: Is fish flesh very salty?
Answer: Actually, in most cases, the flesh of fish contains very little salt. So little in fact, that many doctors recommend it in salt-free diets. One exception though is the shark, whose meat is salty — as salty as the water in which it lives.
Question: Are salt-water catfish edible?
Answer: Absolutely! The two species found in U.S. waters, the gafftopsail catfish and the sea catfish, or hardhead, are both good to eat, with the gafftopsail catfish considered the more delectable.
Do you have any fish and seafood mysteries that you'd like solved? Do you know a fisheries/seafood related fact that others might find interesting. If so, contact me and we'll look into using it to add just a little more spice to our fish and seafood trivia sauce.
