Arsenal Message Board
you are viewing a single comment's thread.view the rest of the posts
Radge2def, you are being very generous; do you think Ferguson would be so generous? Arsenal need to be more ruthless. Ramsey has no pace, he is caught in possession many times in a game and too often makes the easy pass (back or square), let's just leave him on the bench as back-up and get rid as soon as possible. He's at the wrong level, Arsenal need better.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
I dont think I'm being too generous. Hes been pretty awful since his return from injury but since just after Xmas there has been a marked improvement. Still lacking but improving. Frankly if you can see improvement in a young player (still only 22) then there is every reason to give them a proper chance. I know Fergie probably would not have been as generous, if he had been at Utd I'm pretty convinced he would not have been given a new contract in the winter, and pretty sure he would have been shipped out this summer, but that is the diff between Wenger and Fergies man managing techniques.
Lets face it Wengers methods are a not a new revelation. Diaby has been so injury prone yet Wenger stands by him. Arshavin has been just as bad as Ramsey for a similar amount of time yet there appears to be no problem between arshavin and Wenger on a perosonal level.
For me Ramsey has recently began reminding me of Darren Fletcher. (hmmm now there is a similarity between Wenger and Fergie in terms of giving people a chance) He used to have a sweet pass on him yet now looks more of a problem when employed to hassle and harry the opposition into making mistakes and not giving them time. If Ramsey ever gains his lovely passing skills again, which i think he will, he could be a very useful player to have.

iVI Pro
Import Any Video Into iTunes or iMovie with a simple Drag and Drop...
iVI converts your files into HD (High Definition) and SD (Standard Definition) format that is suitable for all your Apple devices. In iTunes it just appears as a single HD/SD file just like a purchased video file. The SD version is great for your little devices like an iPod or iPhone, and the HD version looks great on your larger devices like your Mac, iPad or AppleTV.
Import DVDs into iTunes
iVI can import your DVDs into iTunes for playback on your Apple TV, iPod or iPhone. This import can include multiple audio tracks (surround sound, directors commentary...) and subtitles from the original DVD. A free download of VLC is required.
Apple have made it clear that this feature will not be allowed in an App Store version of iVI so it's only in iVI Pro available from our store.
Video formats
iVI will convert almost any video file dropped onto it including all common formats such as MP4 MPG MOV AVI MKV WMV FLV 3GP AVCHD MOD MTS M2TS TOD and VOB (VOB support is only available in iVI Pro). iVI can ensure the video file is converted to work on Apple devices for iTunes, AppleTV, iPad, iPhone or iPod or preserve the original resolution of the video for work in iMovie or Final Cut.
Audio formats
iVI will convert surround sound present in the video (5.1 audio) and will automatically include a stereo track (2 channel audio) in the default language even if the file did not include one originally. This means that on your home theater system you have great sounding surround sound but when you're mobile everything still plays just fine.
iVI downloads TV Show and Movie information in your local language (when available). iVI converts all available language tracks in your file and will default to playing your video in your language. iVI's interface is available in English, French and German with more languages on the way!
iVI will include any available subtitles (SRT or VobSub) that you choose to select in your converted file or you can add your own from an SRT file. iVI can also automatically import SRT formatted subitles.
Automate Your Video Conversion
iVI can monitor folders for new video files and add show information, convert and import into iTunes automatically so your video is ready when you are.

HTC Lexikon Comes With QWERTY Keyboard
Posted on September 22nd, by Effie Tjhai in archive. No Comments
HTC Lexikon now comes with QWERTY keyboard. Although it comes with gigantic screen, sometimes some people still prefer to have their finger on the tiny buttons. Verizon has comes up with many big screen devices but this one will bring a complete different experience for their users.
The device comes with 3.8-inch WVGA display, 512MB RAM, MSM7630 chipset (800Mhz), Froyo, 5MP camera, HTC Sense 1.6, and 4GB of internal memory. It could be better than DROID X and could even surpass EVO 4G. There's possibility in it but for sure it's an amazing phone there.

"Your ICy MCs: 'I' flows alot and Magic Smoke"
I use this one for talking about a computer in general and the function of its components. A computer is analogous to a box of stuff in the garage. Getting a hard drive/ flash memory with more capacity for data is like getting a bigger box so you can store more stuff in it. Getting a faster processor that can manipulate data at a greater rate is like being able to search through the stuff in the box faster. Getting more RAM capacity is like being able to hold more of the stuff you need in your hands while you work on it rather than having to dig though the box and get one piece to use at a time. I guess the power supply is like lunch, so you feel like going into the garage and looking through boxes. Turned out to be simile I think. Also, thank you Sparkfun crew for making it easier for younger and younger people to get excited about electronics and science; the touring is an awesome idea.

The hunt for the dresses
What to wear to four weddings and 3 rehearsal dinners?This is our social life, for the year at least, as far as dressing up goes.
Here are the details:
wedding 1 semi formal
wedding 2 cocktail attire
wedding 3 black tie husband will wear a tux
wedding 4 not very formal at all
I hope over the next couple of weeks that I can find 4 dresses for the weddings themselves and 3 dresses for the rehearsal dinners. Oh my budget…. Just $250.00. That's right for 7 dresses and 4 of them are party dresses. Can I do it? Can I buy a dress for around $34 each. Why, Yes I can!!!
UPDATE: Mission is complete!! I actually spent $29.56 per dress (be reminded that includes 3 Vera Wang dresses, 1 Tahari dress, 1 Sigrid Olson dress, 1 BCBG dress, and 1 Banana Republic dress!!! That is 7 designer dresses for a total of $206.96
I hope my fashion edition will help you find that one special dress for LESS much LESS because it is not what you SAVE it is what you SPEND. I am finding seven dresses to show you that budget shopping for high end dresses is not a fluke but a skill.
Here is what I found for Wedding #1
- Ellie Tahari $20.00 Found at the SPCA
- Banana republic just $9.99 found at the Outlet
Sigrid Olson dress- I found this baby at Goodwill for $4.00. Do I have to wear it twice? It cost less than the starbucks I gave up? I am just kidding, but it hardly seems worth the $6.00 to dry clean it. It is silk and was in perfect condition. I used my dryell and my steamer to make sure it is in perfect condition for wedding #3. That is right I can't decide what to wear to my sister in laws wedding. I bought a dress prior to being sick with samonella and it is now huge on me, so I consigned it. I have 3 weeks wish me luck!!
Black VERA WANG Lavender Label Dress New with Tags small spot which I removed with a little dish soap. Tags read $595.00 paid $80.00 with shipping LOVE EBAY. When I saw this dress it was lust at first site. I know Vera Wang fits me, I had one of her designs for my wedding dress. I have also worn a couple of her other dresses over the years so I was confident when I bid on this dress. I also had a plan if the white stain did not come out… black marker option one and option 2 was to sew on some beading. That is right I was willing to make some design updates if I had too. I know risky but this is the dress I had in my closet and I wore it to a VERY fancy wedding at the Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida. I will wear this dress to my other formal wedding because it is amazing and it fits 🙂
Wedding #3
I Bought a purple Vera Wang dress on Ebay $39.99 and $8.00 for shipping.
I decided to wear a dress I had in my closet to the rehersal $19.99 Sam's club BCBG
You may remember it from Fashion friday. I usually try to make outfits for $20.00!!!
Wedding #4 The final Dress
I bid on this little black Vera Wang number. I won with a bid of $19.99 then I paid just $5.00 in shipping. It is new with tags. I have this adorable vintage pin that was my grandmothers to make it mine. I am also wearing these awesome nine west leopard shoes ($2.50 at Goodwill also brand new). I mean a designer dress and shoes for less than $30.00
Total spent: $206.96

An Intriguing Setting for Experimental Choreography
On March 19 the New York Times surveyed Rashaun Mitchell's Interface at the Baryshnikov Arts Center. While the contemporary dance piece is notable for its jarring use of "extreme facial expressions," writer Brian Siebert argues its "most compelling" aspects stem from the design contributions of faculty member Fraser Taylor (Fiber and Material Studies). "Interface has much more going on, starting with imaginative use of the space," he says. "Along the two walls of windows hang movable panels, imprinted with intriguing, semiabstract black-and-white designs by Fraser Taylor." In an article published by Financial Times on March 19, writer Apollinaire Scherr states, "Taylor's compelling wall panels approach art by way of doodling." Deborah Jowitt of ArtsJournal blog DanceBeat also highlighted Taylor's work on March 21, noting that his work "adds to the impression of things taken apart and reassembled."

Has the redistricting process for Florida been fair?
admin | 3/1/2012, 4:30 a.m.
There is no magic process or transparent system that can erase human emotions, prejudices, stereotypes, beliefs and political affiliations. Redistricting is a process that is undertaken every 10 years based on the latest census data. The goal is to draw legislative and congressional districts in a manner that ensures equal and fair representation. This month the Florida legislature passed the Redistricting plan and it was signed into law by Governor Scott. Once the plan was approved and signed into law, there was a barrage of lawsuits were filed. These challenges are fitting because in certain district the maps just do not make sense. In 2010, 63 percent of Florida voters passed the Fair District amendments, which said political districts for state and federal offices must be compact and equal in population when possible. There is also another component of the amendment, and where feasible, the maps must make use of existing city, county, and geographical boundaries. Lakeland has been divided into two maps; Polk County has been split into four maps. These maps were supposed to respect communities and geographic boundaries they do not. We think all the maps are embedded with violations, said Dan Gelber, general counsel for Fair Districts Now. On the other hand, the Republicans believe that they have followed the law and that the process was consistent with the Fair Districts amendment. They have given themselves a grade of A because they believe this years redistricting process was driven by a goal of transparency. Last years statewide listening tour to initiate the process drew over 5,000 attendees and 1,637 speakers gave their input on map making. The process gave the common folks of Florida an opportunity to speak to their representatives and they did the listening instead of talking. After listening, the representatives had the responsibility to draw up fair maps. The new redistricting maps would boost the number of Hispanic lawmakers and keep the same number of Black lawmakers. Based on an analysis of the 27 congressional districts, it has been determined that 14 strongly favor Republicans and 10 strongly favor Democrats. The lawsuits have started and no one can predict what the final outcome. We can only wait for the courts to decide. Roger Caldwell is the CEO of On Point Media Group in Jacksonville.

The Swedish Academy says Canadian Nobel literature prize winner Alice Munro won't travel to Stockholm to collect her award because of poor health.
Academy secretary Peter Englund said in an email Friday that the 82-year-old writer had declined the invitation, and that it's not yet clear who will represent her at the Dec. 10 award ceremony.
The academy announced last week that Munro had won the $1.2 million US prize for this year and called her a "master of the contemporary short story."
Munro has published more than a dozen collections of short stories since the 1960s, often focusing on the lives of girls and women from the towns and farming communities in her home region of southwestern Ontario.

Automated Configuration Collections and Healthchecks for Apps 11i
By mzshaw on Jun 30, 2006
When logging a new EBiz Service Request (SR) with Oracle Support, you just know you will need to upload a whole bunch of configuration files, describe your system architecture and also run some Remote Diagnostics Assistant (RDA) scripts to gather additional data - right?
Wouldn't it be cool if Oracle Support somehow just knew all this stuff without having to ask?
Well, now we can automate this exchange of data with the recent addition to Metalink "My Configurations & Projects"
My Configurations & Projects is an extension to Oracle Metalink and provides:
- A location to share pertinent project and system information to help Oracle Support understand your environment.
- A standard way to catalog your configurations.
- Access to the Oracle Configuration Manager, a new tool enabling collection of information pertaining to your configuration.
- System Healthchecks, which utilize configuration information provided by the Oracle Configuration Manager to provide proactive recommendations and risk assessments across your environment.
- Product Alerts, which use configuration information to identify pervasive product or security issues based on your configuration.
This means that you can run scripts to gather data about your Release 11i environments and upload this information to Metalink. If you then need to raise a new SR you can do this against a specific configuration; Oracle Support will see a link in the SR to that environment's configuration information. You can even optionally configure the data collection scripts to refresh the data in Metalink automatically -- without human intervention -- to ensure that we always have the latest information about your environment.
Learn More About My Configs & Projects (Metalink Note 250434.1) describes the features and benefits of this technology in more detail and is well worth a read to see how best you can take advantage of this tool.
Providing this standard method for capturing information about your Applications environments enhances Oracle's understanding, helping Oracle Support engineers resolve your issues faster, and to make proactive recommendations to known and potential problems.

The House On The Hill
Retro Scene
This old house and car on 7th Ave. made for an interesting retro scene the other day. I believe the car says it's a Ford Galaxie 500, which probably means it's from the 1960's. I have no idea how old the house is.
Want to help a kitty?
My cat, Butler, is very ill right now with a kidney problem, and his medical bills have really added up. If you happen to have a few dollars to spare, could you help me get him well? I've set up a GoFundMe page. So far, his bills have come to about $1200, of which I've already paid around $500. He and I thank you for your consideration.
I've also uploaded several images to a Fine Art America gallery, if you would like to buy a print or greeting card. All funds raised would go directly to Butler's medical bills. Thank you.
And a huge thank you to Santiam Veterinary Hospital for their hard work in getting Butler on the road to recovery.
The Angel Opens Her Eyes
In a Room Full Of Emptiness
Guest photographer Tom Miller says this about his photo:
Just another snow photo of the old abandoned house just outside of Stayton.
I call it pretty danged cool. Thanks, Tom!
By the way…
Happy New Year's Eve! If you are going anywhere tonight, please, please, please do not drink and drive. Use a designated driver or take a cab. It's not worth the risk to yourself or anyone else. Have fun, but be safe.
'Tis The Season
I thought this house on Mountain Dr. looked rather pretty a few nights ago, so here's a picture of this house on Mountain Dr. looking rather pretty.
A call for guest photographers!
This week's weather is supposed to be pretty bad, which means I likely will be unable to go out and take pictures. So if anyone has any photos of the Stayton area they would like to share, I would love you forever. Please see the Contribute a Photo page for details. If you have any trouble with the form, please email the photo and other details to me at celinechamberlingmailcom. Thank you!
The House With Nobody In It
Summer Stripes
This was the view looking north from the Lone Oak Cemetery on the corner of 3rd Ave. and Fern Ridge Rd. a few days ago. You can't see it in the photo, but Highway 22 bisects the image, right behind that line of trees behind the houses. I believe those buildings on the upper left are part of a farm between here and nearby Sublimity, which is just beyond the hill.
The hill looks a lot close than it actually is, since there's a neighborhood, the highway, and some flatter land between where I took the picture and the hill itself.
A Place To Call Home
Fall Color
Guest photographer Denny Barnes brings us today's photo of beautiful autumn color. His description:
Finally getting a little color at my place. My coral-bark tree usually comes out bright yellow but this year it's more orange than yellow??? I've noticed a lot of the trees in the woods this year are a little different in color and slow to come on. Could be our dry and warm early fall is causing it. Anyway, we are starting to get some good color now.
That's interesting about the change in color. Nature is so danged fascinating. Thanks, Denny!

Mycotoxins in Food. Woodhead Publishing Series in Food Science, Technology and Nutrition
- July 2004
- 488 Pages
- Elsevier Science and Technology
Mycotoxins, toxic compounds produced by fungi, pose a significant contamination risk in both animal feed and foods for human consumption. With its distinguished editors and international team of contributors, Mycotoxins in food summarises the wealth of recent research on how to assess the risks from mycotoxins, detect particular mycotoxins and control them at differing stages in the supply chain.
Part one addresses risk assessment techniques, sampling methods, modelling and detection techniques used to measure the risk of mycotoxin contamination and the current regulations governing mycotoxin limits in food. Part two looks at how the risk of contamination may be controlled, with chapters on the use of HACCP systems and mycotoxin control at different stages in the supply chain. Two case studies demonstrate how these controls work for particular products. The final section details particular mycotoxins, from ochratoxin A and patulin to zearalenone and fumonisins.
Mycotoxins in food is a standard reference for all those concerned with ensuring the safety of food.
- Discusses the wealth of recent research in this important area
- Covers risk assessment, detection of particular mycotoxins and how to control them throughout the supply chain

Denis Wick first started making mouthpieces in 1968 and his range of products has expanded to include mutes and other accessories. Please click on this link to see Denis Wick talking about the company and to see the range of products described. Denis Wick products have become well-known for their excellent designs, superb sound and great intonation.
All Denis Wick metal mutes are hand-crafted in the Denis Wick factory in Poole, in the south of England, where highly skilled craftsmen create mutes which are light, but extremely hard and resonant. This hand-crafting is one of the secrets of the success of these mutes.
Denis Wick wooden mutes are all hand-made in the United Kingdom and give a different tone-quality from that of the popular aluminium mutes. They are a favourite in the best symphony and opera orchestras, where their intense sound in pianissimos is appreciated. The new range of fibre mutes offers a great mute at an extremely affordable price.
The Denis Wick mouthpiece range includes the Classic, HeavyTop, Heritage, Ultra, American Classics and DW/Paxman models, and are all manufactured in the UK using the latest computer-controlled technology to produce mouthpieces which are both consistently accurate and very comfortable to play. All the mouthpieces are hand-polished and ultra-sonically cleaned before being plated by state-of-the-art equipment designed to produce the best possible silver and gold finishes.
Denis Wick Advanced Formula Valve Oil has set a new standard in brass instrument lubrication. It uses PTFE (better known as Teflon) to produce an oil which is extremely long-lasting, gives long-term protection from corrosion and has a wonderful, silky feel.
Denis Wick brass accessories have become the favourite of brass-payers all over the world and can be found in leading orchestras and bands in every part of the globe.
Denis Wick has had for many years an international reputation as trombonist, brass teacher and conductor. Having studied in London at the Royal Academy of Music, his first professional appointment was in the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra as the second trombonist. He became principal trombonist of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra in 1952, leaving in 1957 to join the London Symphony Orchestra, also as principal trombonist, and remained there until his retirement in 1988. During his time with the London Symphony, which eventually became the longest tenure of a principal chair in the history of the orchestra, he played under many of the world's greatest conductors.
Despite the demanding schedule of the LSO, Denis has also been a member of the London Sinfonietta and, for a short period, the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble. In addition, he has made many appearances as a soloist. He has had concertos written for him by several British composers; among them, Gordon Jacob, Buxton Orr and Alun Hoddinott.
His conducting work began at the Guildhall School in the 1960s and has naturally been centered on brass and wind ensembles. It also included for many years an excellent youth symphony orchestra which has bred generations of professional players. His own London Wind Orchestra made prize-winning recordings in the 1970s which have set new standards of excellence for this kind of ensemble.

Flocks of buyers pushed up home sales across the Bay Area last month for the strongest April in six years, a real estate information service reported Thursday.
Sales of single-family homes were up 12 percent from the previous April, according to DataQuick. There were double-digit increases in the number of homes sold in Santa Clara, San Mateo and Contra Costa counties. Alameda County sales were up 6 percent from a year ago.
A drop in the number of foreclosure sales, which fetch lower prices, helped push the median sales prices up, DataQuick said.
The median sales price of a Contra Costa County single-family home was $296,750, up 12 percent from a year ago. In Santa Clara County, it was $595,000, a 13 percent gain; in San Mateo County, $635,000, a 2.4 percent increase, and in Alameda County the median price was unchanged from last year.
In some areas, there's been a modest return of the market's missing ingredient: homeowners who are selling their house to move up to a more expensive one.
"The move-up market is doing better while foreclosure resales are continuing to decline and are now at the lowest level in many years in many markets," said Andrew LePage of DataQuick.
Homes are fetching multiple offers in the distressed markets of eastern Contra Costa County, as well as in the high-priced areas of Santa Clara County and elsewhere.
In the Berkeley hills, Claremont, Rockridge and Piedmont avenue areas, "houses that did not sell last year that have been brought back on this year are going with multiple offers," said Unhei Kang of Grubb Co. in Berkeley.
A year ago, despite lower prices, houses weren't selling. "We've gone from one extreme to the other," said Robin Dickson of J. Rockcliff Realtors in Danville.
A $600,000 home in San Ramon had 40 offers, Dickson said.
In a contrary trend in Palo Alto, more homes are on the market now than there were in March, a sign prices may have plateaued.
Ken de Leon, a real estate agent based in Palo Alto, said there are still multiple offers, just not for quite as much above asking price.
"People are moving in, people are moving out. People have confidence their jobs are going be there, that the market is going to be strong," he said.
There still are more buyers than sellers in many parts of the Bay Area, but the strong performance is stirring hopes the housing market is beginning to recover in the four counties of the East and South Bay.
"At every level of the market things are beginning to improve," said Barbara Lymberis, president of the Santa Clara County Association of Realtors. "Things look optimistic. It's not a normal market, but it's getting more balanced."
Sales of foreclosed homes dropped as a percentage of the market, DataQuick said. In Santa Clara they were 15 percent, their lowest in four years. Nearly 30 percent of sales in Contra Costa County were foreclosures, down from 35 percent in March and the lowest since December 2007.
Foreclosure sales were their lowest in four years in San Mateo County.
In eastern Contra Costa County, hard hit by the subprime loan crisis, there still aren't enough homes for sale, said Joy Di Ricco, an agent with Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate in Antioch.
Still, it's more like "that old market we used to be in," she said.

1 Q. [Mr Rampton] -- no, Mr Irving, sometimes -- I know it is tiring to
2concentrate hard all the time, I know that, sometimes
3I think you just do not hear what I say. I am talking
4about the killings in the East. Leave the German Jews out
5of it for a moment, because at the beginning they were in
6tiny minority anyway.
7 A. [Mr Irving] But my reference to the wild minority carrying on was a
8reference to German Jews.
9 Q. [Mr Rampton] No. You, I think, have asserted -- if I am wrong then
10I say after the adjournment we will do a paper chase to
11see whether I am wrong, if you say I am wrong -- you have
12asserted on a number of occasions, have you not, that this
13sort of thing, like what happened in Kovno, like the sort
14of thing we have seen in that Minsk document, were not
15part of policy, they were just things that happened. You
16said just now about those Berlin Jews, they got to the end
17of line, that was that and after that they were in hand of
18the wicked witch?
19 A. [Mr Irving] The system operated from Berlin out to the East. I think
20we have conceded this, so far as there was a system. But
21I think that what you failed to establish, if I may say
22so, is to establish that the system operated from Berlin
23outwards to Hitler headquarters as well, and that I should
24have known about and I ignored it.
25 Q. [Mr Rampton] No. Do I have now a clear concession that what the SS
26were doing in the East, whether they were Polish, Russian
1or Berlin Jews, no, leave the Berlin Jews out of it for
2the moment; what the SS were doing in the East to the
3Russian Jews, and the Baltic Jews, to a total of perhaps
41.5 million, I do not believe the numbers matter, we have
5a concession now, do we, that that was done on the
6authority of and with the knowledge of at least Heydrich
7in Berlin?
8 A. [Mr Irving] Yes, quite clearly.
9 MR JUSTICE GRAY: The buck stopped there, did it, did it go to
10Himmler as well?
11 A. [Mr Irving] I think quite clearly this August 1941 message to which
12Mr Rampton probably wants to proceed next is a reference
13to the overall security activity of Einsatzgruppen in the
14East, on which Hitler wished to be kept informed, and to
15try and say this obviously refers to specifically to the
16killing of Jews and only to the killing of Jews is a very
17adventurous leap to make. Obviously you have to mention
18this desire of Hitler to be kept informed, but it is
19dangerous then therefore to say therefore he must also
20have been told in great detail about everything else that
21is going on.
22 MR RAMPTON: I am trying to take it slowly, Mr Irving, because
23I want to be sure of the bricks which I am building.
24I have built brick No. One, at long last I have a
25concession that Heydrich authorized and knew about
26shootings of these hundreds of thousand of Jews in the
2 A. [Mr Irving] Which Jews are we talking about? Can we be quite
3specific. We are talking about the eastern non-German
5 MR JUSTICE GRAY: Yes.
6 MR RAMPTON: We are talking about the ones the
7Einsatzgruppen --
8 A. [Mr Irving] Yes, it is not a concession because I said it all along.
9I think the word "concession" is loaded. It implies
10I said something differently previously.
11 Q. [Mr Rampton] -- that is what I will look for over the adjournment
12because I believe that you have on numbers of occasions,
13not in this court, said almost exactly that.
14 A. [Mr Irving] I shall await this revelation with interest.
15 Q. [Mr Rampton] I may be wrong, if I am wrong I will tell you so.
16 Now I am going to go a stage up from Heydrich.
17I am going to go to Himmler next. This is a document
18which I perfectly well accept you did not have at the time
19when you wrote your books. My Lord, it is Himmler's note
20of the 18th December 1941. It is referred to on page 63
21of the first part of Dr Longerich's report, and the
22document itself in one of several versions is at footnote
23160 of H4(ii).
24 A. [Mr Irving] While we are looking for that, can I just say this is
25precisely the kind of document, of course, that falls
26under my strictures about is it strictly relevant to the
1issues as pleaded? If it was not available to me at the
2time I wrote the books ...
3 MR JUSTICE GRAY: I have been wondering about that and I
4think ----
5 A. [Mr Irving] It is of historical interest and I am quite happy to...
6 Q. [Mr Justice Gray] Yes, but just wait a minute, Mr Irving. I think there is
7a lot of force in what you say, but I do not think I can
8stop Mr Rampton cross-examining about it because if he
9were, for example, able to show by producing a document
10you did not know about when you were writing, that it
11points unequivocally in whatever direction, and you were
12to deny it, he might be entitled to say to me at the end
13of the case, well, that shows that you are not objective
14when you are shown a new document.
15 A. [Mr Irving] He is a hard, cold denier, yes.
16 Q. [Mr Justice Gray] But I do accept the force of what you say and Mr Rampton
17may takes these documents perhaps rather than shorter than
18the ones that were available.
19 MR RAMPTON: I think it is very easy to do that because there
20is really only one question comes out of it. The trouble
21is I cannot find it.
22 A. [Mr Irving] I have, of course, used the document in the new version of
23the book that has now gone to press.
24 MR RAMPTON: It is about three quarters of the way through file
254(ii). Has Mr Irving got file 4(ii)?
26 A. [Mr Irving] I am very familiar with what the document says and its
1shape. "Juden frager"...
2 MR JUSTICE GRAY: But I am not, Mr Rampton, so can you show me
3where I go for it?
4 MR RAMPTON: Yes, my Lord, footnote 160. This reproduction of
5the note is the best I have. It comes from that little
6book, Witte. It is a Himmler manuscript, my Lord. Your
7Lordship may recognize the handwriting.
8 MR JUSTICE GRAY: Yes.
9 MR RAMPTON: Before we look at the substance of this,
10Mr Irving, perhaps it is best to say what it says. We had
11better just tell everybody what it means. I hope I read
12it correctly. It is headed: "Fuhrer Hauptquartier", is
13it not?
14 A. [Mr Irving] Yes.
15 Q. [Mr Rampton] Which is the "Fuhrer's headquarters". Underneath that we
16know which headquarters because Himmler tells us, the
17Wolfsschanze, the Wolf's Lair.
18 MR JUSTICE GRAY: Did you say FN 160?
19 MR RAMPTON: Yes, 160.
20 MR JUSTICE GRAY: Mine is 17th December 1941.
21 MR RAMPTON: Yes, but on the right-hand side it should be the
23 MR JUSTICE GRAY: I had assumed that was what was being
24transcribed on the left-hand side.
25 MR RAMPTON: No, it is not, I am afraid. In fact, in the book
26the transcription is on the next following page behind the

What is it?
Many people fear injections to some extent, but once that fear becomes persistent, excessive and unreasonable, then the fear becomes a phobia. Injection phobia is the fear and avoidance of receiving various types of injections, and/or of having a blood sample withdrawn through venipuncture (pricking a finger). This is a specific phobia and is extremely common yet not very well recognised, and affecting 3.5 % to 10% of the population.
DIY self diagnosis
How do I know if I have an injection or needle phobia?
- If you have a marked, persistent, and excessive fear of needles.
- If exposure to needles almost invariably provokes in you an immediate anxiety response.
- If you recognise this fear is unreasonable.
- If needle-sticks are either avoided, or endured by you with intense anxiety or distress.
- The avoidance, anxiety or distress significantly interferes with your normal routine, occupational or academic functioning, social activities or relationships, or if there is severe distress about having the phobia.

New – And Old – Twists In Romeo & Juliet
Despite all the buzz about the casting, David Leveaux, director of the latest production of Romeo and Juliet to hit Broadway, says the play's most radical aspect is its exploration of family dynamics. Pia Catton and WSJ This Morning's Gordon Deal discuss this new interpretation of Romeo & Juliet.
In her article on the play, Raising 'Romeo' Above Its Stars, which appeared in Thursday's paper, Ms. Catton writes:
The buzz around "Romeo and Juliet," opening Thursday on Broadway, is all about the casting of its movie-star Romeo, Orlando Bloom, and Condola Rashad, who is African American, as Juliet.
The director, David Leveaux, is prepared for the fans of Legolas (the elven hero Mr. Bloom portrayed in "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy), but he thinks they will appreciate what Shakespeare's play, in his view, is really about: clueless parents.
"For people who think of the play as just about this love story, one of the surprising, radical things is what it has to show you about family dynamics," said Mr. Leveaux. "This is a play in which there is a cavernous gap between parents and their children. The children are almost strangers to their parents."
Listen to Ms. Catton and Mr. Deal discuss the play below or at this link.

When my good friend Jim came over for brunch last month, I was excited for the chance to make a quiche in my new quiche pan. This recipe is exciting because you can modify it in so many ways. In fact, this recipe is modified from a swiss cheese and mushroom quiche recipe in my Moosewood Cookbook. I modified it because Drew and I would have to eat the leftovers, and Drew doesn't like mushrooms. So I changed it up a bit and made a turkey bacon and cheddar combo.
6 tbsp butter, cut into small pieces
1 ½ cups flour
about 4 tbsp cold water
1 ½ cups flour
about 4 tbsp cold water
1 small onion, chopped
¾ cup turkey bacon, chopped (or substitute real bacon)
½ salt
a dash of black pepper
¼ tsp thyme
4 large eggs
1 ½ cups milk
2 tbsp flour
1 ½ cups grated cheddar (substitute whatever cheese you like)
1 small onion, chopped
¾ cup turkey bacon, chopped (or substitute real bacon)
½ salt
a dash of black pepper
¼ tsp thyme
4 large eggs
1 ½ cups milk
2 tbsp flour
1 ½ cups grated cheddar (substitute whatever cheese you like)
First, I made a crust. You could use this one, which uses butter, or this fabulous recipe for pie crust that uses shortening. Whatever you feel like using!
Here are the small pieces of cold butter.
Cutting the butter into the flour.
All done! It resembles a course cornmeal when you're done.
Here's my ice water.
Adding a few tablespoons, just a little at a time.
Now we're ready!
Roll the dough out into a flat round. The edges always look like crap when I do this. I don't know how you keep it from getting a craggy. Hahaha craggy is a hysterical word. I just google imaged it and tons of mountain pictures came up.
Before smoothing it out...very ugly and frustrating.
Acceptable. I don't really care how it looks, this is how you know a person, not a machine, made it. :)
Okay, let's now construct the filling! First, I chopped up a small onion into small pieces like this.
Here's my turkey bacon. Don't get me wrong; my favorite animal in the whole world to eat is piggy, but considering the amount of eggs and cheese that is in this recipe, not to mention all the butter we just cut into the crust, I think using turkey bacon is perfectly acceptable. It's only like 35 calories a slice!
So i just cut up about half a pack, which yields something like 3/4 to 1 cup of chopped up turkey bacon. It doesn't matter a whole lot, just eyeball it.
Normally, I use vegetable oil or olive oil to saute my onion, but I had some butter out and I became Paula Dean for a split second. Oops, in goes the butter.
Our spices. Pepper, salt, and thyme. Add these to the onions as they cook.
After sauteing the onions, they become very soft, translucent, and delicious. Take them out and set them aside in a bowl.
Now, add the turkey bacon to the pan. Note: If you are using real bacon, you might cook the bacon first, then cook the onions in the remaining bacon fat. If you're using turkey bacon like I am here, you don't need to worry about the order, since turkey bacon won't render much fat at all as it cooks.
Separately, you wanna blend together the eggs, milk, and flour until it becomes a nice uniform substance. I think you can do this with a whisk, but maybe the blender does it faster? Who knows.
Now, time to construct the quiche! Step one: layer the cheese in the bottom of the unbaked crust.
I used sharp cheddar because I wanted the flavor to transcend all the egg and bacon and play an equal part in this equation, taste-wise.
Next, add the bacon and onions. Lastly, pour the egg mixture over the top!
Mmm! It's like pouring milk over your cereal. Haha gross, except nothing like that.
All done.
Now, it's ready to go in the oven. I would highly recommend placing the pan on a cookie sheet or something, in case you wobble going into the oven and spill egg mixture in the bottom of your oven. Then you have to get all angry and scrub burned egg off the bottom of your oven.
When it's all said and done, this is what you get.
Ahhh yes!
Here's a nice hearty slice of the quiche, which I served still warm with some hash browns.
Looks yummy, yes? I absolutely loved making this quiche, and it tasted just as good (if not better?) as cold leftovers. Delicious! Hope you enjoyed this recipe, let me know how it goes for you!

On top of the Los Angeles Lakers playing hurt and not quite at full strength last night, they had to play the entire second half without Dwight Howard. Howard was ejected in the second quarter after he picked up his second technical foul.
According to Dave McMenamin of ESPN Los Angeles, Howard's technicals came from what seemed to be arguing calls. Howard felt the referees had a quick trigger and should have at least explained the reasoning for the technicals better. Howard picked up his first technical in the first quarter while begging that a foul be called. He picked up his second technical in the second quarter when a double technical was called on him and the Toronto Raptors' Alan Anderson.
"They didn't explain," Howard said when asked why he picked up the second technical foul. "I didn't do anything to get ejected."Howard isn't alone in thinking the technicals should not have been called. The Lakers will likely petition the league to have the calls rescinded. The move will not help the fact that Howard was tossed in last night's game, but will keep him from inching closer to the league's mandatory suspension for 13 technical fouls.
Howard has averaged 17.3 points and 12.4 rebounds per game this season. His numbers are slightly down since coming over from Orlando. In his career, Howard has averaged 18.4 points per game and 13.0 rebounds per game.

Initially, I was just going to make scarves, but I thought maybe there would be a really nice beret pattern that someone might have that was quick and easy. I would rather not have to spend the money to buy myself some new needles (I have 7, 9, 11, 15, 35), and I'd like to be able to finish the projects as soon as I possibly can. Thick yarn, big needles, etc. Does anybody have any patterns that work??

Exile's Return by Raymond E. Feist(26 ratings)
|Raymond E. Feist
|Exile's Return
|Conclave of Shadows
|Submitted by email@example.com
(Dec 15, 2009)
This book to me was a bit of a Disappointment, in the way that Talon was not the protagonist. The other two books were entirely based upon Tal. Im not saying the book was bad though it was exciting and had adventure from one side of the world to the other. While a man that had so much was ruduced to nothing but the clothes on his back. Throughout the story he had to rebuild his life to become a "New man" If he was to live and many incidents such as Johanna helped this change. I would love to have seen Talon as the protagonist in this story as there was so much to this man and the plans the Conclave had for him, then once he had completed one task they no longer were in need of him. I have read this series twice now and overly excited to read others, while at the same time praying for another book to have Talon as the protagonist. I would like to thank Feist for the most entertaining series i have ever read.

I picked it up, and I couldn't put it down and it was all that I thought about over the days that I read it. Watching Kaspar develop as a person is very satisfying and I always like to read a good adventure novel (aren't all of Raymond's books?) There's gods, magicians, and some old characters from the past, including Tal Hawkins. Great book, but I'd definitely read the first two before I got this one.

I created the 3 setup disks from Veritas, plus the one IDR disk according to
the description in the manual and its wizard 7.3.2575. Everything worked
Finally when I really needed to use the IDR needed, I booted with the 1st
disk followed the instruction up to the 3rd disk where I got a blue screen
and the system crashed. Is their a fix I am missing some where? I applied
all the fixes and updated I could find @ Veritas.
Fortunately that I installed a second Hdisk with NT Workstation 4.0 could
boot with the second WinNT and restore my SBS Hdisks with the offline
backup I do from time to time with Ntbackup form this second WinNT

CARSON, Calif. — Landon Donovan scored the tiebreaking goal on a penalty kick in the 65th minute, and David Beckham left MLS as a two-time champion with the Los Angeles Galaxy's 3-1 victory over the Houston Dynamo in the MLS Cup on Saturday.
Omar Gonzalez tied it in the 61st minute with a long header for the Galaxy, who defended their title in a rematch of last season's championship game.
With a stirring second-half surge capped by Robbie Keane's goal on another penalty kick in injury time, Los Angeles won its fourth MLS Cup, tying D.C. United for the MLS record.
The Galaxy also gave an appropriate farewell to Beckham, the 37-year-old English midfielder who transformed the league and his team over six seasons in Los Angeles. Beckham will play elsewhere in the new year before eventually returning to MLS as a team owner, but he hasn't disclosed his immediate plans.
After Calen Carr put Houston ahead in the 44th minute, Beckham and his high-scoring teammates systematically broke down the defense of the Dynamo, who lost the MLS Cup 1-0 to Los Angeles on the same field last year.
Keane played another stellar attacking game for Los Angeles before earning his own penalty kick when Houston's Tally Hall knocked him down in the box, while Gonzalez got the equalizer on a cagey play by MLS' top defender last season.
Donovan even redeemed himself for missing an open net in the 13th minute by burying his penalty kick after a Houston handball in the box. The U.S. national team star, who is also contemplating a departure from soccer, won his record-tying fifth MLS title while scoring his fifth career MLS Cup goal and the record 22nd goal of his postseason career.
After Keane's goal clinched it, Beckham left the game to a raucous standing ovation from the packed stadium amid chants of "Thank you, David!" Beckham hugged Galaxy coach Bruce Arena, who won his fourth MLS title, and just about everybody on the Galaxy bench before the game ended moments later.

Add Mercedes-Benz to the list of automakers hoping to cash in on the small-car boom: the automaker is planning on bringing its 2011 A- and B-class subcompacts to the U.S.
The decision to bring both cars Stateside is in stark contrast to Mercedes' previous decisions.; Although both cars were designed to meet North American crash standards, plans to launch the A- and B-class in the U.S. were abandoned in 2005.; The B-class, however, has been sold in Canada for more than three years.
Although both cars share the same platform and powertrain, the B-Class (pictured here in Michigan in early 2008), with a longer wheelbase and more interior space, may carry more appeal with American consumers.;
Should the new plan remain unchanged, Americans will be able to buy the next-generation form of the A- and B-class cars.; Like the current design, we're expecting the new models to remain overtly compact (the current B-class is only 14 feet long) and use small-displacement four-cylinders.

Findings for PPC in Mcallen
Mcallen Ranks Amongst Least Expensive Markets for Google Adwords in USA
SEP's ongoing research into PPC Campaigns has revealed that Mcallen was the 238th least expensive city in USA in keyword bids in Google Adwords for the month of May 2016. Mcallen also ranks amongst the least expensive cities in Texas, ranking as number 26th. In the study, San Buenaventura ranked as the most expensive city in the country, while Ontario ranked as the least expensive city.
Year over Year Google Adwords Prices for Mcallen are up in May 2016
SEP's research shows that the average price of a click to advertisers targeting Mcallen keywords increased by (Yr/Yr increase %)% versus the same keywords one year earlier.
Google Adwords Keyword Prices 230% Higher in Mcallen than Brownsville
SEP's research also tracks Google Adwords price changes and trends in cities across Canada and the U.S. Recent data shows that average prices in Mcallen are 230% higher than in Brownsville. The average price of a click in Mcallen is $7.19.
This price differential is somewhat surprising however, as Brownsville has a larger population than Mcallen.
For better comparison of prices, we also compared prices with another similarly sized city in terms of population, Hampton, and found the average price of a click in Mcallen was 14% lower than in Hampton.
The Price Rank shows how expensive keywords are in certain industry and segment relative to other cities in a country, region and province.

When You Reach Me
by Rebecca Stead
When You Reach Me Introduction
In A Nutshell
Are you a fan of mysteries? Are you a natural Sherlock Holmes? Do you have fun solving puzzles and piecing together clues? Well, good. That means you're going to love Rebecca Stead's young adult novel, When You Reach Me, which New York Times reviewer Monica Edinger calls a "thrilling puzzle" (source). We at Shmoop agree. It's a paradox of a novel. It's a riddle wrapped in an enigma cloaked in mystery. Heck, it's like one of those trippy 3D eye paintings** that you stare at until a bunch of dolphins finally jump out at you – and you're sucked in.
Reviewer Monica Edinger, who is also a teacher, says that her students "became obsessed detectives when I read this book to them – examining the map-like cover for clues, studying the clever chapter titles and constantly recalibrating their ideas as more pieces of the puzzle were revealed. When I reached the end, when they saw just how everything fitted together, they were completely and utterly delighted" (source). See? One minute you're reading, and the next thing you know, you're one of those dolphins.
The premise of the novel is simple enough to wrap your head around. When You Reach Me tells the story of a sixth-grader named Miranda who is a latchkey kid in New York City in the late '70s. Her single mom is a paralegal (she works in a law office, but isn't a lawyer) who wears crazy colored tights, and her favorite book is Madeline L'Engle's classic A Wrinkle in Time.
That's where the simplicity ends, though. At the beginning of the book, we learn that Miranda has been finding creepy notes around her apartment that weirdly predict the future – her future. Miranda is caught in a web of questions: Who is sending the notes? Why? And how can the note-writer know things that haven't even happened yet? Our heroine unties these knots page by page, and we get to be detectives along with her.
When You Reach Me won the Newbery Medal for children's literature in 2010, and we don't think it's because the novel's puzzles are simple. This book's questions often have challenging answers – the kind that scientists and philosophers have been pondering for centuries. What is the nature of time and space? What is the relationship of the past to the present? Is time travel really possible? Did we mention that Albert Einstein and his theory of relativity play a big part in this plot? This book might just hurt your head, Shmoopers. So put on your thinking caps – er, helmets – and sally forth.
Why Should I Care?
In a 1931 essay called "The World as I See It," the great scientific egghead Albert Einstein wrote, "The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious." He continues: "It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science. Whoever does not know it and can no longer wonder, no longer marvel, is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmed."
For old Einstein, the world was indeed a place full of marvel. His eyes were wide open to the many mysteries of the natural world. As a physicist he dreamt up the world-changing theory of relativity. That's right, he cooked up the famous equation E=mc2. Time and space were fascinating riddles to be unpacked in old Einey's noggin. The answer to those riddles would radically change the world we live in.
Rebecca Stead's When You Reach Me opens with a quote from Einstein's 1931 essay, and we would argue that her novel continues along in the spirit of Einstein's thinking. No, she doesn't claim to expand on his theory of relativity. Stead is a novelist, not a scientist. Like Einstein, though, she believes in the beauty of the mysterious – and the value of a human's ability to wonder. She asks us to think about the truths of space and time, sure, but also truths about humanity. What defines our experience as humans? What is it that makes us who we are? As someone as interested in society as he was science, Einstein would have approved of these questions.
When You Reach Me doesn't pretend to know everything. Instead, it asks questions – and asks us to wonder, to marvel at the answers.
