A Must Read - Share
Part of me really wants a Tesla Model S. I'm a bit of a car freak, and over the years have owned a string of BMWs, an Audi S4, and a vintage Porsche 911. These days I'm just a regular suburban dad, driving a Subaru Outback wagon. But a few months ago I was talking to Vivek Wadhwa, who was about to take delivery on a Tesla Model S, and he told me I should consider getting one, because sure, it's a little bit expensive, but not crazy expensive, and once you drive one you'll want one. I just laughed it off. But afterward, I started thinking.
The Model S is a gorgeous car, and frankly, at

To the Editor.
—I read with interest the article by Dr Grayson and colleagues.1 The authors appropriately offered a critique of prior studies, citing retrospective design, small numbers of patients, and lack of diagnostic criteria. However, they failed to discuss the limitations of their study. In an ideal study of contiguous osteomyelitis complicating pedal ulcers, each patient would have undergone both the index test (probing to bone) and the "gold" standard test (histologic diagnosis). The authors referred for histologic diagnoses only 46 (92%) of 50 patients with a positive probe test and only seven (27%) of 26 patients with a negative probe test. This represents test referral bias2 whereby patients with a positive index test (probing to bone) are more likely to receive the criterion standard test (histologic diagnosis). As a result, both the true positives and false positives are overrepresented in the study sample. If the clinical

The Florida High Lady Noles and the Leon High Lady Lions played for breast cancer awareness, but neither forgot their competitive edge. The official Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event will benefit a breast cancer walk and spread hope for cancer victims.
Gail Stansberry-Ziffer, with Making Strides Against Breast Cancer said, "It touches everyone, not just women, but family, friends, loved ones and that's what's great here--to see young women come together to help support the cure."
The Lady Noles ended up winning in three straight sets, but win or lose--the event will help put on the Walk to Save Lives at the Southwood Town Center beginning at 12:30 this Saturday afternoon.

R U D W N? With LIFE, Lenovo's Newest Musical Future Icon?
Are you "that person" in your crew that is always up on the newest artists and tracks before anybody else?
If so, you'll want to check out the Future Icons channel inside the Lenovo Companion app, available exclusively on Lenovo Windows 8 systems. Future Icons brings you exclusive behind-the-scenes music and videos from artists we've tapped as the next big thing. They will share with you how they use digital music creation to get their sound, and hopefully inspire you to start making some tracks as well!
Our newest Future Icon is the alternative rock band called LIFE. The band consists of Los Angeles natives Moi J Quinn,Sean Chapman, and Matthew McEwan, and offers a distinctive SoCal sound reminiscent of 311 and Sublime. Their exciting debut EP, R U D W N? drops June 18, 2014, featuring their first single of the same name. (If you're in the Los Angeles area, they will perform at their album release party at the legendary Roxy nightclub in Hollywood June 18.)
Moi, Matt and Sean were first known as the founders of Southern California band Tomorrow's Bad Seeds, and spent nearly a decade engaging a diehard fan base with three full-length albums as well as successful stints on Warped Tour. However, their muse suddenly morphed right before their eyes. "It wasn't planned out," recalls Sean. "We just started writing music, and it awakened something different within us. It wasn't Tomorrows Bad Seeds. It was new. The three of us followed that path naturally, and LIFE was born." "We evolved into this band," Matt agrees. "As we began working on ideas, all of this fresh music poured out of us. It was important for us to allow that to flow. This is what we do. We put it all out there. It's our LIFE".
In many ways, the music's dynamics reflect their own multi-cultural identity and diverse backgrounds. Moi speaks three languages, breakdances, and surfs, while Matt splits his time between being a dad and playing DJ as Sean devotes free moments to painting."We don't make just one style of music," explains Moi. "Everyone is so multi-faceted, and that's a big part of it. We make what comes from the heart and what feels right. We're all from Los Angeles, and we have so many different influences ranging from punk rock to Motown. We can be influenced by anything and everything."
They stir those influences into a hypnotic hybrid on their debut EP, R U D W N? which drops today, June 18. It's led by the buoyant bounce of the first single also titled, "R U D W N ?", which slips from a distinct island guitar twang into a resounding refrain. Originally conceived on the tour bus and finished back in Hermosa Beach alongside songwriter Josiah Rosen, it opens up the doorway into LIFE. "It's about escaping harsh realities and structure," admits Sean. "A lot of people don't realize they have the capability to do whatever they want. They're constantly chasing money and they forget to stop, take a moment, enjoy it, and connect with others around them.""It's a love song about being carried back to where you're from and who you want to be with," Moi adds. "I was thinking of Tupac when we were writing it, and it asks, 'Are you down for my love and the journey we can take together? Are you down for this escape?'. (If you're in the Los Angeles area, LIFE will be performing at their album release party at the legendary Roxy nightclub in Hollywood June 18.)
The members of LIFE first embarked on their collective "escape" together back in 2004. They developed a bond and a brotherhood that extends far beyond the music, embracing each other's extended families into one big unit. "We all hang out and know everything about each other's lives and stories," smiles Sean. "Matt and I slept on Moi's mom's couch for a year. My dad's been a mentor to all of us. We can call on anybody anytime. That's the most incredible thing. That bond only got stronger when we started this band."
Now, they're inviting everybody to join this family and ride forward on this journey of LIFE.
"When people hear us, I want them to feel memories they haven't felt in a long time," Moi leaves off. "I want them to connect it to real emotions because everything we do is from the heart. We sing and play from the heart. We hope you feel it."

You should write a tribute to Joe on your Blog, and sign it "the OS/2
Guru", like in the old days.
I haven't seen you on L.Inq for a while, but it'd be a good idea if they
carried a story about it too (nothing there so far), so maybe you could
oblige with some reminiscing about Joe, and further insight into the
BTW, I liked your "Good Riddance Bill Gates article":
However, the link to the Noël "Pie Man" Godin interview is broken. I'm
not sure if this is exactly the same interview, but here's a working
link nonetheless:
http://www.firstmonday.org/Issues/is...din/index.htmlFM: How did you prepare to pie Bill Gates?
Godin: For several years, there's been a new phenomenon. Traitors appear
in the entourage of our victims who contact us to give us firsthand
information. Our victims, at first sight, are very unpleasant and they
are far from being loved in their own circle; this is our trump. For
instance, these last years, Patrick Poivre D'Arvor, [producer] Daniel
Toscan du Plantier and [French minister] Nicolas Sarkozy have been
betrayed. In the case of Bill Gates, a member of the staff of Microsoft
Belgium contacted us and gave us a mysterious rendezvous. Thanks to him,
the operation was a success. Of course we won't give his name. It's a
secret; only a few know his identity. But we want to tell it because we
would be very amused if there was suspicion in the staff of Microsoft.
"Who's the traitor?!"
| "The idea that Bill Gates has appeared like a knight in shining
| armour to lead all customers out of a mire of technological chaos
| neatly ignores the fact that it was he who, by peddling second-rate
| technology, led them into it in the first place." ~ Douglas Adams

Giant Bats Quiet Cubs at Fitch Park
Tommy Joseph cracked a two-run home run to lead the Giants to a 12-1 drubbing of the Cubs in AZ Instructional League action at Fitch Park Field #1 in Mesa this afternoon. (Field #3 remains unplayable in the aftermath of the torrential rain and flash flood that hit Mesa Tuesday afternoon).
18-year old Korean bonus baby Jin-Yeong Kim got the start for the Cubs today, and was "lights out" through the first two innings, retiring the side in order in both innings, and striking out the side in the 2nd. But the youngster hit a wall in the top of the 3rd, walking the lead-off hitter on four pitches before allowing two singles and a double that ended his day. Kim also suffered some type of right leg injury while backing up 3rd base just before he was relieved, and was last seen limping to the Cubs bench before getting a ride to the clubhouse on a golf cart. Whether it was a groin, quad, knee, or ankle, I don't know, but I have a feeling we have seen the last of Kim until next March.
2B Logan Watkins had to leave the game after colliding with RF Xavier Batista while going after a pop fly in short right in the top of the 5th. Watkins initially remained in the game and he did take his AB in the bottom of the inning, but then he was sent to the clubhouse for further evaluation. Hopefully he did not sustain a concussion, but it was a fairly violent collision (X. Batista is a big dude), and Watkins did lay motionless for a few seconds afterward.
Because Marco Hernandez and Gioskar Amaya had morning workouts and were not dressed for the game, and with Pin-Chieh Chen out with a rib injury and Wes Darvill having been sent home, 3B Willson Contreras was moved over to 2B for the final four innings. A converted catcher, Contreras had not previously played 2B in his pro career, but he handled his only two chances flawlessly.
Here is today's abridged box score (Cubs players only):
1a. Evan Crawford, RF: 2-3 (1B, 5-3, 3B, R)
1b. Engel Santana, C: 0-1 (4-3)
2. Hak-Ju Lee, SS: 1-2 (BB, 1B, 4-3, RBI, SB)
3. Sergio Burruel, C-DH: 0-1 (4-6-3 GIDP, BB, BB)
4. Justin Bour, 1B: 0-3 (F-7, 6-4-3 GIDP, 6-4-3 GIDP)
5. Xavier Batista, DH-RF: 0-3 (F-9, K, P-3)

Re: Giant Bats Quiet Cubs at Fitch Park
That Stockstill sure sucked as a talent evaluator!
Re: Giant Bats Quiet Cubs at Fitch Park
Under Stockstill we had 4 first round choices in 2002, 10 choices in the first four rounds and only Rich Hill ever made the majors. The only other draft picks that year to make the majors was Adam Greenburg for an AB or two and Randy Wells, drafted as a catcher. I realize that drafting isn't an exact science but this must be a near record for ineptitude.
Re: Giant Bats Quiet Cubs at Fitch Park
" . . . Adam Greenb[e]rg for an AB or two."
One pitch, not technically an AB. Nor did he ever touch first. That's what makes AG Destiny's fool.
Re: Giant Bats Quiet Cubs at Fitch Park
Not that I'm disputing your point. But you left out
Billy Petrick (3rd), Micah Hoffpauir (13th), and Rocky Cherry (14th).
Re: Giant Bats Quiet Cubs at Fitch Park
I stand corrected. Kind of forgot that Petrick and Cherry ever made the ML roster and overlooked Micah.
Re: Giant Bats Quiet Cubs at Fitch Park
that draft for the cubs was given a pretty universal slam-dunk thumbs up...some people thought the cubs might/should take john mayberry over brownlie, though.
injuries happened to all the pitchers, but they snagged a nice collection with great stuff/upside.
brownlie started off nice, but ran into injury...hagerty pretty much injured himself right off the bat and was never the same...blasko was cruising until his injuries...clanton i think came pre-injured and barely started his career before retiring (he blames the cubs for ruining him, though...whatever)

Objectively true. Scherzer's FIP is almost a half point higher than his ERA, mostly I deduce because his BABIP is .249 so something ridiculous like that. It's not like the guy can't be scored on, but when I watch him, I sometimes feel that he's the most in control of the game moving around him.
Certainly might be the hottest pitcher right now, but he's behind a few pitchers by most objective full season standards.
Well noted. You may also note that Lester's Career Playoff ERA is almost a full point lower, and he has a lower WHIP as well.
Can't have everything, I guess.
i'm happy enough with the Lester signing, but Scherzer has more than earned the extra money so far. If he was in the rotation instead of Lester, this team would feel practically bulletproof to me.
Blaspheme maybe, but I think Scherzer is the best pitcher in the NL right now.

Our Orchard
Raising cider apples on the Island does create its own challenges, as the mild winters here are hospitable to the air-borne fungal spores of anthracnose, which eats at the young bark of the trees. Rather than use harsh chemicals, Rick carefully trims and prunes around the damage. Nontheless, Rick prunes his trees heavily every three years for improved health, functionality, and to avoid clumping. Typically, the trees in Merridale's cider orchards are pruned more lightly than with orchards of eating apples, for which appearance is all important.
Much like their wild crabapple ancestors, cider apple varieties have flesh that is fibrous and dry. They give fuller body and colour to cider, unlike the sweet, juicy dessert apples most other cidermakers use.
In the early 1980s, when this orchard was planted, there was only one other orchard in North America dedicated to growing cider apples. Even today there are only a few cider orchards on the entire continent, growing limited quantities of cider apples.
The Cowichan Valley mirrors the optimum growing and climate conditions of the renowned cider regions in the UK and Europe. Merridale's location was chosen, after years of research, as the perfect combination of climate, aspect and soil conditions to grow world-class fruit. As with fine wines, you need world-class fruit to make a world-class beverage!
We have almost 13 acres of cider apples here in our orchard, yielding about 60 tons of fruit in a good year. We purchase up to another 50 tons from smaller orchards that grow apples for us on trees started from our own cuttings.
Our apples are grown for their juice characteristics, not appearance or shape, allowing us to eliminate the use of herbicides and pesticides not approved for organic orchards. Indeed, you'll notice that the ground under our orchard's trees is green, in contrast to most commercial orchards, where Roundup is sprayed for weed control. Although it is much more labour intensive to weed by hand, we choose not to use this chemical. We are conscious of our place in our environment.
We have two rows of Jonagold apples, the only dessert apples in the orchard. All the rest are cider-specific varieties like Tremlett's Bitter, Michelin, Yarlington Mill, Dabinett, Chisel Jersey, Kermerien, Julienne, Judaine, Frequin Rouge, and Hauxapfel.

Netflix: What the Analysts Expect
Can you feel it coming in the air, um, this afternoon? You know what I mean: the quarterly earnings report of what has for some reason become America's favorite stock, Netflix, due in just about an hour.
Somebody's feeling it, at least; Netflix is up about 3% today.
Shares of the video-rental whatsit have nearly tripled, yes tripled, in the past year, meaning the bar should be somewhat highish for further upside surprises. You'd think, anyway, though analysts have been helpfully lowering that bar for the past few months.
At the end of the first quarter, they expected Netflix to earn $1.19 a share in the quarter, a forecast they have slashed to $1.11 in the months since, according to FactSet data. That represents flat earnings from the first calendar quarter, though sales are expected to rise to $791.5 billion from $718.6 billion quarter-to-quarter.
Lazard Capital Markets analyst Barton Crockett says the numbers aren't as important as what Netflix says about the future:
But comments should count more than results. Netflix's decision to jack up pricing for combination streaming/DVD by mail users, a jarring change that has sparked widespread complaints, will be the key focus. Does Netflix see this boosting ARPU, but hiking churn and slowing sub growth? Will it help with negotiating online rights deals, or set the stage for a spin-off of DVD by mail down the road? We will also look for more comments on a Bloomberg report late Sunday that Netflix was discussing an output deal with DreamWorks Animation.
Latam outlook also key. We believe the scale of the Latam launch may be such that Netflix could at least slightly hike guidance for $50M to $70M of 2H11 int'l losses. Will Latam have lower ARPU, higher margin subs?
Any sign of slowing domestic sub growth? As Netflix adds subs in 2M to 3M quarterly chunks, and crosses 25M subs total, it looks to be approaching, within a few quarters, saturation of the roughly 70M broadband households in the U.S. barring a multi-sub per home ramp, which is not yet meaningful.

Daily Journal
TUPELO – It was standing-room only at Winter Jam at the BancorpSouth Arena on Thursday night.
No advance tickets are sold for the Christian music festival, so fans began lining up early Thursday morning to make sure they had a seat.
A few were turned away after more than 9,316 packed inside, and the line to get in wrapped around to the back of the arena.
Inside, artists like Plumb, NewSong, Colton Dixon and Thousand Foot Krutch kept the audience on its feet, and fans sang along as lyrics to some songs were shown on any of the five screens.
"Let's celebrate Jesus tonight," said Dixon, an "American Idol" alum who was one of the early artists on stage.
The tour also gave back to Tupelo.
Artist Jared Emerson painted a portrait of Jesus that was sold at a silent auction. Any proceeds over $600, which paid for Emerson's time and supplies, went to the Tupelo Children's Mansion.
Speaker Nick Hall emceed the night and also ministered to the audience about God's love.
"When you're a child of God, it changes you," he said. "God loves you. God wants you."
Fans were able to mix and mingle with many of the artists, who hung out at their merchandise tables after their performances.
Carol Rodgers brought her granddaughter, 10-year-old Anna, as well as 17 other members from Northside Baptist Church in New Albany.
It was many of the members' first Winter Jam, but Rodgers is a fan of the tour.
"We love the music," she said. "(NewSong) is wonderful. I'd say they're my favorite."
NewSong started Winter Jam in 1995.

This document covers
the following topics:
Removing Domains
To remove a domain, do
the following:
Instant Domain Aliases
An instant domain
alias is an additional web address that gives access to your website when your real domain name is
not yet unavailable (until you have updated the nameserver address of your
domain name). Instant domain aliases are generated randomly based
on our domain name (active-venture.com) and can't be changed. To enable or disable
access to your website by instant domain alias:
Creating Subdomains
A subdomain is a lower
level domain. It is added on the left of the domain name, e.g.
subdomain.example.com. You can create as many subdomains as allowed by the
plan (set at 100 for all hosting plans currently). Domains and subdomains have equal functional capabilities, including
web site management, email service, FTP, etc., but
subdomains do not have their own DNS zones.
To create a subdomain,
go through the following steps:
Shared and Dedicated IP Hosting
This is also called
Virtual Hosting (Shared IP) and IP Based Hosting (Dedicated IP).
Shared IP
Dedicated IP
Switching from Dedicated IP to Shared IP will delete your virtual FTP and
SSL services. DO NOT switch to Shared IP if you are using Dedicated
IP for your account (ie. Silver plan and above).
Domain Aliasing
Domain aliasing, or
domain stacking, is creating additional domain names that would point to the
IP of a different domain. For example, if your domain name is example.com,
you can register another domain name, e.g. example.net and have it point to
the location of example.com. This means, every Internet user who goes to
example.net will land in example.com.
A domain alias may
To create a new domain
alias, do the following:
Server Aliasing
Server aliases are
additional names for your virtual host. Unlike domain aliases, they are not
added to your DNS zone, and are registered only with apache. For instance,
if your virtual host name is example.com and you also would like it to be
available at www.example.com, you should add www server alias to the
example.com domain.

Best Shots Advance Review: THE LONE RANGER #1
Best Shots Advance: THE LONE RANGER #1
The Lone Ranger, Vol. 2, #1
Written by Ande Parks
Art by Esteve Polls and Marcelo Pinto
Lettering by Simon Bowland
Published by Dynamite Entertainment
Review by David Pepose
'Rama Rating: 5 out of 10
Sometimes, expectations can get the better of us. Take, for example, The Lone Ranger. For those who haven't read the first volume from Brett Matthews and Sergio Cariello, you're missing out on the best comics Dynamite Entertainment has ever produced. Those first issues were a gorgeously illustrated, downright cinematic introduction to John Reid, taking us inside his head and showing us how he became the man he was meant to be.
In other words, it's quite the pedigree to live up to. And perhaps I shouldn't be surprised that Dynamite's second iteration of The Lone Ranger doesn't match up to the first. To be honest, that would be unfair to even expect. But the accessibility and charm are surprisingly lacking in this first issue, as Ande Parks and Esteve Polls seem to expect us to love the Ranger without question, rather than refine the character even further.
The reason I say that is because, in a lot of ways, the Ranger isn't really the protagonist of this story. Considering this is a first issue, that's not necessarily the most intuitive introduction in the world. Focusing on a widower as he tries to move on after his wife is killed by bandits, it seems that Ande Parks is focused more on telling us how tough the Old West was, rather than showing us through the Lone Ranger's travails. The misstep with the narrator is compounded by the reality that he can't even solve his own problems — the Lone Ranger does end up coming around to save the day, but ultimately his screen time feels so short beforehand that the victory lacks the tension needed to make it feel really satisfactory. Unless you're already well-acquainted with the Lone Ranger and Tonto, you're going to probably be scratching your head at what the big deal is.
Once you push through a slow beginning and a somewhat jerky middle, you see Parks try to slip in that exposition of John Reid's past, but ultimately, it comes off as too little, too late. Whether or not there's a Vol. 2 in front of it, it's still billed as Issue #1 — and every issue is someone's first. Unfortunately, with the Matthews/Cariello run still fresh in our minds, it makes the dropoff for The Lone Ranger seem that much more apparent. This isn't a bad book by any stretch of the imagination, but it does feel misguided. I want to know what Ande Parks thinks about the Lone Ranger, I want to know more about how John Reid and Tonto operate. Because right now, it feels like The Lone Ranger is just going through the motions.Got a comment? There's lots of conversation on Newsarama's FACEBOOK and TWITTER!

Report: Distributed Generation to Grow 15-Fold by 2011
The global electric capacity of distributed generation sources will grow to 300,000 megawatts by 2011, according to a new report. Distributed generation includes modular forms of generating or storing electricity that can be located near the point of use - for instance, fuel cells or solar electric systems. The new report from Allied Business Intelligence (ABI) projects a 15-fold increase in the use of distributed generation from today's 20,000 megawatts. According to ABI, reciprocating engines and small gas turbines should dominate the market until about 2005, when fuel cells are expected to grow in prominence. The full report is due out in late June. See the ABI press release: (PDF 30 KB). Download Acrobat Reader.
The National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) has recognized the growing distributed generation market and the challenges that it faces. Because one of the major challenges is the interconnection of any generation system with the power grid, NRECA has created a "Distributed Generation Toolkit" to help its members address the legal, economic and technical issues raised by consumer-owned generation. The toolkit, which was rolled out in April, may also be helpful to others investigating distributed generation. See the toolkit on the NRECA Web site.
Ballard Power Systems Inc., a leading fuel-cell manufacturer, also appears to be anticipating the growing distributed generation market. The company has just produced a new power converter for microturbines and has opened an "Alternative Energy Laboratory" in Dearborn, Michigan, for the testing of generation systems using power sources such as fuel cells, microturbines, and internal combustion engines.

John "Pop" Lloyd played professional baseball in the Negro Leagues from 1906 to 1932, including two stints with the Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City. In 1910 he out-hit Ty Cobb in a Cuban winter league series, .500 to .385. His lifetime average of .368 is a point higher than Cobb's.
Lloyd was also a great teacher of baseball to young players. Countless Atlantic City kids learned about baseball and life from Lloyd, many of them when he filled the post of Little League Commissioner later in life.
The mission statement of the "Pop" Lloyd Committee notes that it's purpose is "to commemorate, preserve, and amplify the historical legacy left by John Henry "Pop" Lloyd and Negro League baseball. Future generations who treasure the national pastime will benefit from the values engendered by "Pop" Lloyd and his lifetime commitment to American Youth.
Inspired Bronze has been selected to create a custom bronze award for the John Henry "Pop" Lloyd Committee's Humanitarian Award, presented during the annual Pop Lloyd Weekend award ceremony.

Ethiopian Cuisine in Richmond, VA: Nile Restaurant
Last week David and I were up in Virginia, visiting friends and family before moving into our new home in Atlanta. While we were in Richmond, we discovered The Nile Restaurant, an amazing, delicious and 100% gluten-free restaurant.
Thanks to our friends, Lee and Nancy, who were inspired by a recent episode of Top Chef that involved Ethiopian cuisine, for finding this great Richmond spot. They decided to look for an Ethiopian restaurant in Richmond and stumbled upon The Nile Restaurant, which also happens to be 100% gluten-free. I kid you not: every dish in the place is gluten-free, even the bread (yes, bread!) that you use to pick up your food. That's right, no silverware needed in this restaurant.
The 'injera' bread is made with teff flour, making it light and spongy. The bread is basically used as your utensil so you grab your food with the injera. So delicious! Warning: Not all Ethiopian restaurants are entirely GF. Our server informed us that a lot of restaurants use part teff flour and part regular flour in their bread, as a means of cutting costs because the teff is expensive. This makes it not ok for us celiacs.
When people ask me what I miss most now that I'm gluten-free, they usually expect me to say cake or pizza, but that's not my response. Honestly, I can make all of those items, and I make them pretty darn well. For me, the thing I miss the most from my 'gluten' days is sharing experiences with people. At wedding receptions, birthday parties, and events, I usually have to bring my own food. At restaurants I can never 'just have a bite' of someone else's dish because I don't know what's in it or it might be contaminated. The Nile was a lovely break from my celiac-imposed dining restraints and I could dig in with the rest of my group.
At Nile, they serve the food communally, and I could enjoy and partake with everyone else. I didn't have to worry about contaminated utensils. (Oh wait, there were no utensils!) No separate plates for me. We all enjoyed every bite of our meal. I think this might be one of the best dinners I've eaten all summer.
We had no idea what we were doing since it was our first Ethiopian experience but the waiter was so friendly and helpful when it came to guiding us in our choices. We went with a couple of appetizers, two 'Nile Special Combination Plates' (where you get a little bit of everything), and one entrée. Everything was phenomenal. We were all very satisfied at the end of the meal. It was a lot of food but I felt refreshed and energized at the end, not overloaded.
Our main dishes came out on one large communal plate. The photos do not do the meal justice. It was amazing. Take my word for it and if you're in Richmond, check it out for yourself.
I highly recommend Nile, regardless of whether or not you are gluten-free. There are many options and all of their veggie dishes and injera bread are vegan friendly too! Next time I'm in Richmond, I'll definitely be back.
Does anyone know of any other 100% gluten-free restaurants?
The Nile Restaurant – 309 N. Laurel St. – Richmond, VA 23220 – (between Broad & Grace St) 804-225-5544

Hi there,
I know it's been a while since the plugin was released, so I know there might be a chance it could be a version indiscrepancy, but is one supposed to rate a post or page with "the_rating()" or "the_comment_rating()"? I'm wondering because it seems like one should be able to rate the post/plugin in general, but I can't click the stars or make a rating that way. Any ideas on why this might be the case? Thanks!

(Reuters) - Hershey Co made nutritional claims for its chocolate syrups that do not meet regulatory guidelines, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said.
In a warning letter to the company dated February 14, made public on Tuesday, the FDA said the labels on Hershey's Syrup+Calcium and its Syrup Sugar Free with Vitamin & Mineral Fortification violate federal law.
The FDA said the company may not use the terms "plus" and "fortification" on the labels because the products' nutritional contents do not meet the guidelines needed to make such claims.
A spokesman for Hershey said the company had resolved the matter. The label on the first product...

Lilly's Breast-Cancer Breakthrough
Released on Apr. 17, the results of a massive clinical trial for prevention of breast cancer contained mostly good news
The results of a massive clinical trial for the prevention of breast cancer, released on Apr. 17, contained mostly good news for women, though there were a number of caveats. Evista, a drug from Eli Lilly & Co. (LLY) that's already widely used to treat osteoporosis, proved just as effective at preventing invasive breast cancer in older, high-risk women as the current gold standard, tamoxifen, but with fewer serious side effects. Tamoxifen, a 30-year old drug that mimics estrogen, cuts the risk of developing breast cancer in half for post-menopausal women. But it also increases the risk of such rare but serious side effects as blood clots and uterine cancer.
The study of Evista by the National Cancer Institute, part of the government's National Institutes of Health (NIH), was one of the largest and longest-running trials ever conducted. Called the STAR trial, it covered 19,797 women and ran for five years. It found that Evista, a close chemical cousin of Tamoxifen, reduced the risk of invasive breast cancer by half, roughly the same as tamoxifen. But women on Evista had 29% fewer blood clots and 36% fewer cases of uterine cancer than those on the older drug. They also had a lower risk of developing cataracts.
Evista, however, didn't provide improved results for all women. It wasn't as effective as tamoxifen in lowering the risk of two non-invasive forms of breast cancer: ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS). These types of cancer are rarely deadly, but they can turn into more dangerous forms of the disease.
"As a result, the outcome of the study isn't as clear cut as we might have hoped for," says Dr. Len Lichtenfeld, deputy chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society. "It will take some time for experts to review the data to determine which of the two treatments is preferable."
Nevertheless, the results were trumpeted by the STAR researchers -- and by Lilly. For the company, STAR made up for the last week's disappointing finding that Evista doesn't reduce the risk of heart attacks, as Lilly had hoped. Lilly says it will now seek Food & Drug Administration approval of the drug for the prevention of invasive breast cancer. Because the drug is already on the market for the treatment of osteoporosis and the condition it treats is so serious, that approval could come as soon as this summer.
Evista is currently taken by some 500,000 women in the U.S. to prevent osteoporosis, a bone-wasting disease common in post-menopausal women. It's Lilly's fourth best-selling drug, and pulled in more than $1 billion in sales in 2005. Tamoxifen is currently marketed by Astra Zeneca (AZN) as Nolvadex. However, the company has said it plans to phase out the drug by the end of June, since there are numerous generic versions. The FDA has approved several companies to make the generics, including Barr Pharmaceuticals (BRL) and Teva Pharmaceutical Industries (TEVA).
The STAR trial results were heralded by cancer experts, as it proves the principle that drugs can not only treat cancer but actually prevent it. Such so-called chemoprevention is an area of growing focus in oncology, as researchers seek ways to outwit the disease. Cancer continues to kill half its victims despite hundreds of millions of dollars that have been poured into finding new treatments, so there's a growing interest in trying to prevent tumors from ever gaining a foothold in the first place.
Women who participated in the STAR trial were at least 35 years old, post-menopausal, and had an increased risk of breast cancer, based on their age and their personal and family medical histories. The researchers who ran the trial said women who are on Tamoxifen should consult with their doctors before deciding to switch to Evista.

Fighting Women Enter the Arena, No Holds Barred
By MICHEL MARRIOTT
Published: May 15, 2003
LOS ANGELES— IN a futuristic penthouse with floor-to-ceiling windows and holographic artworks, two fierce combatants stare each other down. Muscles ripple and hands clench with menace before the first blow -- whack! -- is thrown.
A heavily tattooed brute named Exile whose neck is thicker than his clean-shaven head vaults his 6-foot 8-inch, 300-pound frame into the air, sailing boot-first into the jaw of his opponent, who is slammed into a window that shatters on impact.
It doesn't matter that Exile's opponent is 16 years his junior, less than half his weight and more than a foot shorter -- and a woman.
While popular tastes and tradition have so far mostly kept the sexes apart in the wrestling and boxing arenas, the same can hardly be said for the video game world that Exile inhabits. As vastly improved technologies enable electronic game characters to look, sound and move in a more lifelike way than their forebears, action-adventure and fighting games are taking on new sexual dynamics, mesmerizing some people and disturbing others.
The new female characters may be clever, karate-kicking protagonists controlled by players of either sex. They can also, depending on the player's ability and the game's design, be victims of breathtakingly violent assaults by men with fists, feet, knives or bullets.
The fighting women are emerging as game developers look for profitable new directions in the highly competitive $10 billion video game industry. Such characters are prominent in Microsoft's Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus, a recent release featuring the hulking Exile, and in several games being unveiled from May 14 to 16 at the Electronic Entertainment Exposition in Los Angeles, an annual multimedia showcase.
Even Lara Croft, the heroine who made the leap from video console to Hollywood film as a sort of female Indiana Jones, is getting a makeover in a new game emphasizing her martial-arts prowess.
For the feminist author Jennifer Baumgardner, watching women do combat in video games is empowering. ''I love having images in popular culture and these games that include women as fighters,'' she said.
She suggests that that casting women as gladiators challenges images of women as passive targets of violence.
''I do not think playing these games encourages women to be victims,'' said Ms. Baumgardner, 32, co-author of ''Manifesta: Young Women, Feminism, and the Future'' (Farrar, Straus & Giroux , 2000), whose central theme is a celebration of ''girl culture.''
Ed Fries, Microsoft's vice president for game publishing, said that most of the female characters joining the cast of regulars in video games this year were strong, the sort of characters that players can ''respect.''
''If you are sitting down to spend 40 hours with a game,'' he said, ''you do have to like the character.''
Behind the changes, though, some see a menacing element.
''Games don't exist in a vacuum,'' said Elizabeth Staudt, a senior at the University of Wisconsin in Madison who is a spokeswoman for the Campus Women's Center there. ''To the extent that these games portray violence against women, it is hard to make a case that those images really may be empowering.''
''For us this doesn't feel like the gender equity we're after,'' she said.
The Women's Center recently took part in a petition drive by the National Institute on Media and the Family to denounce video games that the groups say trivializes violence against women. Chief among the offenders, said the institute's president and founder, David Walsh, is Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, which with worldwide sales of more than 8.5 million is one of the most successful video games ever.
In the game, made by Rockstar Games for Sony's Playstation 2 and just re-released in a PC version, players are rewarded for beating and killing women -- who exist mostly at the edges of the game -- with their fists, feet and in one instance, a golf club.
Yet in the emerging class of games that prominently feature women characters, victimhood is not necessarily programmed into the action, game designers say.
For instance, the half-dozen women in Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus, created for Microsoft's Xbox console, can put up a respectable fight against Exile or other male or female characters -- or be reduced to bloody, bruised wrecks. Similarly, in games like Cy Girls, Brute Force, WarCraft III: Reign of Chaos, and Enter the Matrix, female characters have just as much chance of winning as the males do.
Many video game makers say their new offerings reflect the growing visibility of strong women on movie and television screens and in career domains ranging from corporations to the military.
''You have these figures that are larger than life,'' said Alan B. Lewis, the spokesman for Acclaim Entertainment, a major game developer based on Long Island.
In movies like ''X2: X-Men United,'' and new or coming films like ''The Matrix Reloaded'' and ''Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle,'' female characters do not shy away from physical confrontation with their foes.
Mr. Lewis said that Acclaim was developing a video game based on Sydney Bristow, the kung-fu-chopping spy on the television series ''Alias.'' Paul Baldwin, vice president for marketing at Eidos, the video game publisher with the biggest franchise starring a female character, Tomb Raider's Lara Croft, said that the company had received appreciative feedback from female players.

You Deserve a Better Condom
Bill Gates for your pleasure.
Everyone laughed at "pervy" "whiner" Bill Gates when he offered up $100,000 to anyone building a pleasure-enhancing condom. But the Atlantic reminds us that if Gates is a creep, so are 40 percent of teenagers, half of gay men, and the vast majority of people outside their childbearing years — all of whom don't use condoms because they feel terrible. And, not to ignore the gravity of sexually transmitted diseases, but even the righteously vigilant who swear it's not that bad may be wrapping up for the wrong reasons. "For decades, the myth that pre-ejaculate ("pre-cum") can impregnate women has been a reason people advocated condoms," writes David Masciotra. "The truth is that the chance of pregnancy by pre-cum is so remote that it is a statistical nonfactor." Citing a Guttmacher Institute researcher, he adds, "the withdrawal method of birth control is nearly as effective as condoms in preventing pregnancy," resulting in pregnancy 4 percent of the time, compared with condoms' 2 percent. One hundred percent of my sex ed teachers lied.

It's beautiful. I love it in my new house. Looks great arrived fast
We bought this small size to determine the quality and if we liked the colors in our home. We liked it so much that we bought the same rug in the 7' 8'' by 11' size. We're very pleased with it. We purchased another Sphinx Generations rug about 10 years ago and it still looks new. You can't beat it for the price.
I bought several rugs for my kitchen. They are beautiful and stains come out quickly. My only complaint would be that they fray on the edges -- just from regular vacuuming -- and I am very careful.

Rescue crews in the Birmingham area have been busy helping people from flooded homes and cars as the region was drenched by heavy rain.
About two dozen residents of a mobile home park in Pelham had to be rescued from flood waters that were nearly chest high.

Will Probe of HP in RUS, GER, Become FCPA Matter for SEC in US?
The SEC and Justice Department have, in recent years, really ramped up their investigations of U.S. companies suspected of paying bribes to win business overseas. If, five years ago, there was any dust on the law used to prosecute these cases, 1977′s Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, today it's all been wiped away.
Federal officials might have yet another big case to go after, one involving technology heavyweight Hewlett Packard.
There's an investigation underway in Germany and Russia, where authorities from both countries are investigating whether Hewlett-Packard Co. executives paid millions of dollars in bribes to win a contract in Russia, according to people familiar with the matter. Click here for the WSJ story.
German prosecutors are looking into the possibility that H-P executives paid about €8 million ($10.9 million) in bribes to win a €35 million contract under which the U.S. company sold computer gear, through a German subsidiary, to the office of the prosecutor general of the Russian Federation. The office handles criminal prosecutions in Russia, including many corruption cases.
Russian investigators raided H-P's Moscow offices Wednesday in connection with the probe, the people familiar with the matter said. In December, German authorities arrested three suspects, including one current H-P executive and two former company officials, in connection with the case, according to court records. None of the three has been formally charged and all have since been released on bail.
An H-P spokesperson said, "This is an investigation of alleged conduct that occurred almost seven years ago, largely by employees no longer with HP. We are cooperating fully with the German and Russian authorities and will continue to conduct our own internal investigation."
And will the European probes spur U.S. regulators into action? According to the Journal article, it certainly could. The SEC declined to comment on the matter, however.
German law differs from U.S. law in this material regard: Under German law criminal charges can't be filed against a corporation such as H-P, only against living people. A court can, however, order the seizure of illicit profits if a corporation is found to be the beneficiary of a crime. At least H-P's got that going for them.
