Circus is hard act to follow

'Who's ready to see a circus?" boomed Deputy John Cox as the Police Athletic League Sailor Circus opened to thunderous applause for the final night of its annual Holiday Spectacular.
Sell-out crowds descended upon the big blue and white tent last week for the "Greatest 'Little' Show on Earth," which lived up to its name.
Breathtaking high-wire acts, intricate trapeze maneuvers and clowning antics performed by more than 150 Sarasota students, grades 4 through 12, made for a memorable night filled with ooohs, ahhhs and plenty of giggles.
Nostalgic tunes, courtesy of John Hegener and his calliope, greeted kids of all ages, including Joan Leonard, Caleb Abbe, Philip Watts, Kris Hoellen, Meredith Watts, Bryan and Jacob Dickinson, and Jim and Melissa Burke with children Shiloh and Ellison.
If you'd like to join the circus, for a show that is, go to www.sailorcircus.org for the spring performances in March and April.
Happy 50th anniversary to Dr. Tom and Andy Cail of Longboat Key.
The couple has spent the year celebrating their half century together making more memories, including a couple weeks in Paris as well as a trip to Disney with their family: daughter and son-in-law Liza and Dr. Jeff Brewer with grandkids Emma and Ethan, and son and daughter-in-law Tom and Kristy Cail, who are expecting their first child, a son, just in time for Valentine's Day. And, a little closer to home, Kristy and Tom pulled off a surprise party for 65 recently at the Longboat Key Club's Portofino Ristorante.

Most cases of acute prostatitis clear up completely with medication and slight changes to the diet and behavior.
- Antibiotics, most often trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim or Septra), fluoroquinolones (Floxin or Cipro), tetracycline or a tetracycline derivative such as doxycycline, for at least 4 weeks
- A shot of ceftriaxone followed by a 7-day course of doxycycline (for men with prostatitis caused by an STD)
- A hospital stay and antibiotics given through a vein (IV) (for severe cases)
Because it is possible for the infection to relapse, some health care providers recommend even longer courses of medication -- 6 to 8 weeks -- to get rid of the infection.
Stool softeners may reduce the discomfort that occurs with bowel movements.
Surgery, urinary catheterization, or cystoscopy are not recommended for patients with acute prostatitis.
- Urinate often and completely to decrease the symptoms of urinary frequency and urgency.
suprapubic catheter(a drain that empties the bladder through the abdomen) may be needed if the swollen prostate makes it diffcult to empty your bladder.
- Warm baths may relieve some of your perineal and lower back pain.
- Avoid substances that irritate your bladder, such as alcohol, caffeinated food and beverages, citrus juices, and hot or spicy foods.
- Increase fluid intake (64 - 128 ounces per day) to urinate often and help flush bacteria from your bladder.
After you finish antibiotic treatment, get examined by your health care provider to make sure the infection is gone.
Support Groups
Expectations (prognosis)
Most men who are accurately diagnosed with acute prostatitis become symptom-free after treatment.
Patients who have had acute prostatitis may have the infection come back or develop
Chronic prostatitis or prostatic
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of prostatitis.

New Albany native awarded BMC Scholarship
BLUE MOUNTAIN — Each year the Mississippi Baptist Convention's Board of Ministerial Education awards six endowed scholarships to deserving ministerial students at Mississippi's three Baptist colleges: Blue Mountain College (Blue Mountain), Mississippi College (Clinton), and William Carey University (Hattiesburg).
The 2007 recipient of the William Clawson Scholarship is Tim Bass, a Blue Mountain College senior Biblical Studies major from Tiplersville. The scholarship, established in 1987, was named for Clawson who served for many years as the William Carey University representative on the Board of Ministerial Education. Before joining the WCU faculty, Clawson was a career missionary to Honduras.
The 2007 recipient of the William Washburn Scholarship is Teddy James, Jr., a Blue Mountain College senior Biblical Studies and English major from New Albany. The scholarship was established in 2001 upon Washburn's retirement as the academic dean at Blue Mountain College. Washburn, who served in this capacity for 35 years, also served as BMC's campus representative on the Board of Ministerial Education for 16 years.

Wikipeddler of smears
Andrew Bolt
–, Monday, February, 26, 2007, (2:34pm)
Wikipedia was asking for it by trusting to activists and the angry for its content:
Prevented by law from suing Wikipedia, pro-golfer Fuzzy Zoeller is suing the owner of an IP address from where allegedly defamatory remarks were posted onto Wikipedia alleging that he abused drugs, alcohol and his family in what could set a precedent for online defamation cases.
I once asked one of the founders of Wikipedia if he really believed that mantra of trusting to self-correction, and whether that meant it was fine for me to post stuff as defamatory of him as he'd allowed to be posted of me. I told him what I had in mind. My entry was quickly modified.
Have Your Say
Go Fuzzy!
Mon 26 Feb 07 (03:54pm)
I love wikipedia.
Bolt returned to the tanker the next day, but was intercepted by a military patrol boat and escorted to Haikou for questioning. Blyth claims the reality did not match Bolt's brave tale in his later articles. He disputes that soldiers on board the tanker fired over Bolt's head as he tried to flee in his boat (crewmen on the vessel told Blyth soldiers fired up in the air); he also disputes that Bolt refused to sign a confession that he had made up his earlier story (Blyth claims Bolt did sign a statement admitting his story was "seriously inconsistent with facts" and wrote an apology). Blyth claims Bolt's "irresponsible and inaccurate" reports worsened his situation and led to tighter security than he had been experiencing.

So nice of you to drop in and prove the point.
Mon 26 Feb 07 (04:48pm)
Sueing the owner of the IP address from which an article is posted to the Interent? If Fuzzy wins, I expect to see a lot of IT Managers becoming very restrictive on Internet useage in the work place. What company will want itself tangled in a law suit because one of its employees got nasty online?
Logically it extends to the home user to. It will be hard for some to be so vile if they realised they could be tracked back to their PC tucked away in their lowly garret. Being held accountabile diminishes cyber heroes.
Probably mean less posters here Andrew , sorry. Or at least some politer ones
Mon 26 Feb 07 (05:00pm)
I wouldn't trust Blyth as far as I could throw him, Andrew.
Mon 26 Feb 07 (05:03pm)
Wikipedia = The Abomination that Causes Misinformation. See also The Six Sins of the Wikipedia by Sam Vaknin Ph.D.
Mon 26 Feb 07 (05:30pm)
I just had a look at the Wikipedia article. I notice there is a link there to a website called Boltwatch. I guess you invited that, Andrew!
Mon 26 Feb 07 (05:34pm)
Your tale sounds rather implausable to say the least Andrew. Do you actually really think your entry was edited by a Wikipedia manager after a threat from you? Surely, out of anyone on earth, he'd be more inclined to allow the Wikipedia processes take their course, to let you post whatever tripe you chose to, then corrected the entry once you had done so - just as you could have done to your own entry.
Wikipedia is one of the more remarkable information resources in history, and an example of what can be created when small contributions by millions of people can be harnessed and fostered to produce a resource of immense public benefit. But it is the freedom and openness of the Wikipedia system that is both its biggest asset and its biggest threat. In many respects it can be seen as a metaphor for democracy and free society.
No need for you to go on criticising Wikipedia Andrew… they've done quite a good job of that themselves:
Mon 26 Feb 07 (05:58pm)
People should learn to judge the contents themselves, not the media provider. If facts are verifiable and assertions are clearly identifiable, then one should be able to make up their own mind.
Mon 26 Feb 07 (06:37pm)
So this means the banning of Wikipedia as a reference source for people posting comments in your blog???
Mon 26 Feb 07 (07:02pm)
The only value of wikepedia for any topic slightly open to subjectivity is in using the external resources, references and links as one resource to look at the underlying facts.
Mon 26 Feb 07 (07:27pm)
So you didn,t sign the apology ??
(Blyth says Bolt did sign a statement admitting his story was "seriously inconsistent with facts" and wrote an apology).
Not far from the truth
Mon 26 Feb 07 (07:33pm)
I signed a statement agreeing that what Blyth had told me about the hijacking of his ship was seriously inconsistent with what the Chinese navy and police told me over a couple of hours, which was indeed most interesting. Just who was telling the truth I even now couldn't tell you, even after speaking to the company for whom he was working until that voyage, although in Blyth's defence it is true that the Chinese military there have been dogged by claims of corruption. But Blyth knows very well that I have have personal details he told me that contradict some other claims he's made about me, too, and which I passed on the Australian consul and to one of his daughters.
Moral: Wikipedia cannot be trusted. The proof is in the very entry you raise.
Andrew Bolt
Mon 26 Feb 07 (09:55pm)
Wikipedia should only be used to get pointers to reliable sources, primary materials etc.
As everyone knows, good journalists never use Wikipedia--they make their own facts up
Mon 26 Feb 07 (07:56pm)
Sue me. Quicker than responding intelligently.
Mon 26 Feb 07 (08:23pm)
The Wikipedia's ethos is malignantly anti-elitist. Experts are scorned and rebuffed, attacked, and abused with official sanction and blessing.
Sounds remarkably like another site
Mon 26 Feb 07 (08:34pm)
I actually got that statement from
you should have a crack at them as well
Mon 26 Feb 07 (10:14pm)
Blinkers123 - Andrew doesn't even like Google as a research tool, because it's an easy too to use to find the truth out using it, but I have to defend him in this case: Answers.com typically gets it's "answers" from wikipedia.
Scroll to the bottom of nearly any answers.com page and you'll see "This entry is from Wikipedia, the leading user-contributed encyclopedia. It may not have been reviewed by professional editors."
Wikipedia isn't a very good source of information, as it tends to be a little biased, presenting information from a predominately western, male and wealthy viewpoint, but it is good for finding original and extra sources on certain topics.
Basically, it's just the same as any "real" encyclopedia, except it's not proof read so well.
Mon 26 Feb 07 (11:28pm)
So Wikipedia has some factual inaccuracies? So do lots of websites - with anything web-related you have to cross check. Look at the dodgy websites that some posters here and on the Age website post links to.
I'd still trust Wikipedia with it's self-correcting principle. It's an amazing concept - that a bunch of reasonable people all over the world will generally paint a good picture of the facts. Kind of like the jury system really
Ok you get silly flame wars on controversial topics, but overall it's a hell of a lot more balanced and factual than, say the ABC. The only other criticism is that there is far too much on current trashy stuff like Paris Hilton and that woman who did it with Ralph Fiennes. But overall a fantastic resource - it's almost a default google.
That said, I hear Wikipedia recently celebrated 750 years of American independence on July 25th
Mon 26 Feb 07 (11:54pm)
Are there any other facts in your Wikipedia entry that are wrong, Andrew?
Tue 27 Feb 07 (12:08am)
Bolt says: "I once asked one of the founders of Wikipedia if he really believed that mantra of trusting to self-correction, and whether that meant it was fine for me to post stuff as defamatory of him as he'd allowed to be posted of me. I told him what I had in mind. My entry was quickly modified."
And behold, there lies the problem: the knob-jockeys who ruin it for the rest of us.

"Robert here are some great advantages of shopping on the tube
1. You have the credit card company on your side
2. It is convenient
3. Most shopping networks offer a 30 day money back
4.The prices seem to be lower as an average then conventional retail
5. Many shopping networks offer items which you can not find in your local area
Here are some disadvantages
1. A few shopping networks take a long time to issue credits they do this so they can operate on the customers money (From writer: Yes, AVC does this.)
2. There have been many shopping networks who have gone under which have caused some customers to lose there money (From writer: Just a matter of time.)
3. The touch and feel is not part of the shopping over the tube experience so you must trust the host and company you are dealing with if there is a lack of trust it doesn't matter whether those are mirrors or not (From writer: Sounds like a lot of people don't trust the hosts or have faith in this company.)
4. Lots of the techniques used to sell today are more like tricks. Tricking people to buy is never a good technique." (From writer: All AVC hosts do is trick people.)

Do investors hold well-diversified portfolios?
Solutions for Chapter 13.3
Do investors hold well-diversified portfolios?
No, majority of the investors do not hold well diversified portfolios.
Generally, investors invest in different companies but in the same industry or geographically close.
Majority of the retired employee's invest their retirement money in their employer company.
There are many reasons for this type of investment pattern like familiarity bias i.e. investor will invest in which he/she is familiar about. Another important reason is the relative wealth concerns according to which the investor takes care about the performance of their own portfolio relative to their peers' portfolio

Baptist Global Response
Health care is an integral part of meeting human needs – and the need is overwhelming. Diarrheal diseases kill about 2 million small children each year. About 4 million people die each year from acute respiratory infections such as influenza and pneumonia. A full 45 percent of deaths in poor communities of Southeast Asia and Africa are caused by infectious diseases. One-third of the world's population does not have access to essential drugs. In many countries of sub-Saharan Africa, there are fewer than three doctors per 10,000 people. When God has given us the skills and tools to help, how can we not reach out in love and rescue those who are perishing?
All around the world, Southern Baptists are engaged in healing ministry – bringing physical, mental, and spiritual wholeness to hurting, suffering people. We follow the example of Jesus, who modeled healing ministry and commanded his followers to care for "the least of these." Baptist Global Response offers opportunities for medical ministries that allow health care professionals to live out the compassion of Christ with people in need. BGR does this in partnership with a variety of groups, such as Global Medical Alliance/International Mission Board, Baptist Medical Dental Fellowship, Christian Medical and Dental Associations, Medical Missions Response, as well as many others.
Health care professionals like you can make a difference in any number of ways. You can pray for health needs and health care projects. You can find out what is going on in health care ministries around the world. Become aware of the needs. As you learn about needs, make yourself available if God asks you to go with a medical team or to a medical institution. You can be involved in patient care, public health projects or medical education. You also can become equipped to respond when disaster strikes. To apply for a project click here.

I have been tutoring all elementary subjects for 15 years as well as teaching school full time and yoga and pilates part time. I love to teach reading using a phonics and site word method that is extremely effective. I am an avid reader and I enjoy sharing my love of literature with students. I enjoy museums and all types of art and love to encourage a student's self expression and discovery through different art mediums. Science is another subject I love to teach and believe a hands on experience with materials and experimenting is the best and most engaging way to learn.

We love Rita. She is always on time, comes prepared, and makes learning fun for our 5 year old son. He looks forward to his lessons with Rita.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I am a certified Elementary teacher. I have 4 years teaching experience in public schools and eleven years teaching experience in private schools. I currently hold a valid Ga teaching license. I am currently employed at a private school where I teach and tutor students k- 6 th grade in all subjects. I graduated cum laude with a bachelors in elementary ed from Oglethorpe University.
I have been teaching or tutoring emergent and struggling readers using a combined phonics and site word technique for 15 years. I believe that a strong phonics foundation is crucial for all students in learning to read. I have had a 100% success rate in teaching phonics first then site words to emergent readers.
I have been using a combined phonics/sight word reading program I designed myself to help struggling readers for the last 10 years with great success. I am also certified as a Great Books reading instructor (a guided interactive reading program that uses classic literature, discussion, and shared inquiry to improve reading comprehension, and critical thinking skills).
I have been teaching in a private school for 15 years that specializes in individualized instruction, including study and organizational skills. I help students organize their desks, folders, and notebooks. I help them find the most effective way to study and learn. I utilize interest inventories to find out how students learn best, then implement a plan to address their learning style in the subjects where they need the most help.
I have a national certification in mat beginners and intermediate Pilates. I have been teaching Pilates and Yoga for 12 years at several independent studios.

But then I got the message with the ripp-off reports and was told to google it ASAP before I get scammed when I did I imediately wrote to sandra and told her NOT to cash my check but to return it to me uncashed and cancel my order for her services and sent the letter and a pre-paid envelope made out to my return address and sent it all by priority mail to get it to Sandra Rochefort faster then the general mail of regular 1st class .45cent mail.
I thought it went well because I was then called on my phone around the 16th of Feb from a number I could not call back from a 212 area code they left a voice message on my phone and I was told my check was in the mail coming back to me and thanked me for sending the pre-paid envelope and that my order was cancelled. then teh general blah, blah, blah, trying to convince you to reconsider her services in the future because of some very bad thing going to happen to me she wants to help me with.
So now I am thinking this is all good everything is ok and then BAM!!!
I get home after a day in hell of medical testing due to a clogged artery and I get an email from my one bank ( in never keep much in it because its my internet or shoppping card so I dont use my regular bank account incase of getting ripped off via internet. Anyways, I login to my bank to see why I got a overdraft warning because I had not used the account for some time and there it was MY CHECK TO SANDRA ROCKEFORT for 19.50 ok what put me over was a service fee because I had $18.00+ in the account until i could get to bank on friday.
Well, now I had to pay $35.00 to bank and put a stop-payment on the check because I can't have her scamming me more or sending it to one of those other check places that people can submit a check and then they hold the check for 30 days and then never notify you and claim they did and then charge you 250.00 for the fees threating you with all this horrible stuff for an honest error.
Well, I hope she gets caught and shut down fast because this woman is nothing but a scammer and lier thief!
If she had psychic gifts then she should know that soon the law will come knocking soon for all the people she scammed and hurt.
I don't care about getting my money back as long as my check is stopped, cleared from future problems etc. I did put a stop payment on it same day she tried to cash it. So hopefully she wont be able try again. This is horrible!
I am never reading junk mail again!!! its all trash and lies I just want to see her and the rest of the scammers caught and made to pay for what they did to everyone!

American: So you mean that if you Australians don't vote, you get a fine?
Australian: Yeah, and when you Americans don't vote you get George W. Bush.
As surely as politicians lie, citizen apathy produces democracy atrophy. Much more than a right – in a democracy voting is an irrevocable civic duty. No mental gymnastics can help you jump over this ugly reality: Voter turnout over all American elections averages markedly less than half of eligible voters. This disgrace must be fixed.
These are my proposed solutions: We should make voting mandatory, give voters the option of "none of the above," make Election Day a national holiday, provide same day registration everywhere, and lower the voting age to 16.
No one reform is a panacea. But together these five reforms can dramatically re-energize voting in America. They could be placed in one constitutional amendment and ratified by the states in time for the 2008 presidential election. Limiting public support, however, is an elitist mindset among people with political power, wealth and intellectual arrogance. They wrongly dismiss large numbers of citizens for their lack of education or political involvement. Electoral reforms can create a culture of voting that ultimately produces a more informed public.
Known and very popular cialis coupon which gives all the chance to receive a discount for a preparation which has to be available and exactly cialis coupons has been found in the distant room of this big house about which wood-grouses in the houses tell.
Mandatory Voting
This is not a crazy, radical idea. Hold your reaction on what probably is a new idea for you. Over 30 countries have compulsory voting. Violating the law usually merits something akin to a parking fine, but it still works. When Australia adopted it in 1924 turnouts increased from under 50 percent to a consistent 90-plus percent. Conversely, when the Netherlands eliminated compulsory voting in 1970 voting turnouts plunged from 90 percent to less than 50 percent. Polls regularly show 70 percent to 80 percent of Australians support mandatory voting. Research found that people living in countries with compulsory voting are roughly twice as likely to believe that their government is responsive to the public's needs and 2.8 times as likely to vote as compared to citizens in countries without compulsory voting. Is compulsory voting inconsistent with personal freedom? No! We have compulsory education, jury duty, and taxes that are more onerous than voting periodically. And all people have to do is turn out to vote. What they do with their secret ballot is up to them.
Counting Dissatisfaction
When people can officially say with their ballot that none of the candidates is acceptable, it makes compulsory voting more palatable. In turn, it can increase voting for ballot initiatives and measures. And it is better than lesser-evil voting that has become all too common, because of the two-party duopoly's stranglehold on our political system. It is beats so-called "Mickey Mouse" voting, whereby people write in frivolous names. Nevada offers the None of the Above option, though the candidate with the greatest number of votes wins. Yet protest votes are counted, sending a message to parties and politicians.
Election Day Holiday
Standing in a long line to vote often loses out to being at work or doing other things typical of work and school days. Long commute times add to peoples' time poverty. On a holiday, voting would be more evenly spread out throughout the day and could be held at more places. It would be easier to recruit the best qualified poll workers and government costs would be reduced because of shorter hours. A national holiday also sends an important message: Voting is critically important and something to be celebrated. Opinion surveys have found that 60 percent or more favor making Election Day a holiday. The National Commission on Federal Election Reform made a strong case for this action. Like others, the commission backed moving Veterans' Day to coincide with Election Day. The holiday might be called Veterans' Democracy Election Day. Most Western democracies hold elections on either holidays or weekends. In Puerto Rico people are given the day off and voter turnouts are typically over 80 percent. Early and absentee voting attack some problems. But a national holiday that celebrates the sacred duty of voting by all eligible voters makes more sense. Voting should become more of a social, community activity, bringing Americans together, rather than something done as quickly as possible to get it over with.
Same Day Registration
At least 30 percent of eligible voters do not vote because they are not registered. It makes no sense to make registration onerous. It should be done automatically once voter rolls are established and once citizens show up the first time to vote and present residence and citizenship qualifications, as required. Same day registration has been used successfully in some states for about 30 years. Minnesota, Maine, New Hampshire, Idaho, Wisconsin, Montana, Connecticut, and Wyoming use this approach. North Dakota abandoned registration entirely in 1951. Five of these states have the highest voter turnout in the country. When Montana used it for the first time in 2006, voter turnout jumped from the usual 50 percent to 70 percent. With more same day registration it is appropriate to have more safeguards against all forms of voter fraud, especially registering non-citizens.
Youthful Citizens
We place no upper age restriction on voting, even though some elderly people have reduced mental capabilities, and are often taken advantage of by get-out-the-vote efforts of the two major parties. Our political system is deciding the future for our younger citizens. On fairness alone, balancing a large over-50 voting bloc with younger citizens is justified. Youths age 16 to 18 pay substantial taxes, are often treated as adults in criminal cases, have definite interests impacted by public policy, and in some states can marry and obtain a driver's license. Being in high school is an advantage, because there is more stability and time to build a habit of voting. Considering our Information Age, lowering the age to 16 makes perfect sense. What happens between ages 16 and 18 to make younger citizens more qualified to vote? Nothing. There is a movement to register 16 year olds, but making them wait until 18 to vote is plain silly. New, younger voters can help make voting a patriotic family activity on the new national holiday.
Countries using this lower age include Brazil, Cuba, Nicaragua, and the Isle of Man, and movements for doing so are strong in Britain, Canada and many more. In Germany, a greater proportion of 16 and 17 year-olds voted than those aged 18 to 35 – and twice as many as those in their later 20s – in municipal elections in Hanover. In local elections in Vienna, Austria, 59 percent of 16- to 18-year-olds cast a ballot, about the same as other age groups. Rather than starting wars to spread democracy, America could lead a global surge in voter entitlement. This is what populism is all about.
A Constitutional Necessity
Voting is the heart of a healthy democracy. With our persistent low voter turnout, the heart of American democracy is barely beating. The decline of American democracy is both a cause and consequence of low voter turnout. Low voter turnout makes a mockery of representative democracy. Most politicians get elected with – at best – not much more than 25 percent of eligible voters. This may explain why bought-and-paid-for politicians mostly represent corporate and other special interests. Hefty political contributions by less than 1 percent of adults trump voting.
Face facts. Incremental and piecemeal attempts at electoral reforms have failed. Why? Because those in power do not want across-the-board high voter turnout. Shame on them. And shame on us for letting Democrats and Republicans get away with using costly means to get out their base supporters. This perpetuates divisive partisan politics that entertain and anger Americans rather than serve them – 70 percent of whom are centrists.
Now is the time for one bold constitutional amendment that can grab public attention and move the nation forward. If Congress is too cowardly to propose the amendment, then we need two-thirds of state legislatures to request an Article V Convention for this purpose; to learn more about this never-used constitutional right go to www.foavc.org.
Let us begin by urging members of Congress and 2008 presidential candidates to take a public stand on electoral reforms. Will Democrats and Republicans walk the talk of cooperation for the good of the nation?
Abraham Lincoln spoke of government "of the people, by the people and for the people." If you really believe in these words, then speak out to increase voter turnout to resuscitate America's half-dead democracy.

I haven't quite been able to break my holiday eating style yet. It is just so hard to resist sometimes. However, I found found that a good weapon for me is finding ways to eat the foods I love in a healthier way. Last night, I wanted fried zucchini. The kind that I always eat when I am back home and the kind that I ate a few times a week as a teenage bus girl at the restaurant. This version is much lighter, just as tasty, and perfect for a snack, appetizer, or side dish. I ate mine dipped in a little marinara as a side dish with a chicken burger. Perfect.

The Reds were edged out on away goals by Zenit St Petersburg despite a stirring comeback after falling 3-0 behind on aggregate early in the second leg of their last-32 tie at Anfield.
Rodgers had hoped to oversee another celebrated European comeback but, despite two fine free-kicks from Luis Suarez sandwiched in-between Joe Allen's effort, had to settle for glorious failure.
Despite the result eliminating the club's last hope of silverware this season and leaving them fighting to finish higher than their current Barclays Premier League position of seventh, Rodgers is not downbeat.
Rodgers said: "Our season doesn't finish, and never was going to finish, until the final whistle against QPR.
"This is a group that is growing all the time. You see the level of performance last night, to dominate a team of that ilk and control the game like we did was incredible really.
"For us, going forward, it is to continue with how we have been working since the turn of the year. As the season has gone on we have got better and improved.
"We want to carry that through right until the last whistle at the end of the season.
"You can see the players have the hunger and determination to do that. We will look to demonstrate that in the last 11 games."

Having played against Chelsea last season I know the high quality of the squad I am joining," Costa told Chelsea's website.
"I would like to thank everybody at Atletico who made me into the player I am, it was an incredible time for me, but now I am starting a new adventure and I hope to win many trophies with Chelsea."

North holds off Madison rally
Published: Saturday, August 23, 2008 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 23, 2008 at 12:33 a.m.
If Coach Doug Justice had his way, his return to Glenn C Marlow Stadium would not have been quite as dramatic. With a convincing 20-0 lead at the end of the first half, the Knights ended up squeaking by the Madison Patriots 20-27 in a game that came down to the closing seconds.
I think we just made too many turnovers and too many little mistakes, Justice said afterward.
That wasnt the case early on. Sophomore Nick Heim, making his debut as Norths QB, set the pace early with 33 yards rushing and 14 yards passing in the opening drive, capping it off with a 7-yard TD lob.
And North refused to let up. Following a Patriot fumble, sophomore Marquis Harrison returned it 60 yards for a TD. Madisons next drive was cut short as senior John Graham intercepted the ball, setting up a 12 yard TD run by Dequan Landrum, who finished the night with 65 yards rushing and one TD.
But the Patriots werent about to crumble. After recovering a fumble on the opening kick-off, Cameron Garrison put the Patriots on the board with a 2-yard TD run. He again found pay-dirt when he broke free of Norths stingy defense and ran 36 yards for another TD.
Following a botched punt attempt by the Knights, an 18-yard TD pass by Zack Sawyer put the Patriots within striking distance with 5 minutes left. Norths potent offense from the first half was pushed back 11 yards on three consecutive runs, giving the Patriots 1:55 left to work with.
It was a 20 yard pass that put the Patriots in Knights territory, but an interception by senior Chris Hickman dashed all hopes of a comeback.
The mistakes we made were all correctable, Justice said. Weve got a long way to go, but Im pleased with the way we ran the ball tonight.

BKS is being laid to rest without any resistance. No one buys books, no one cares about nook, ipad and kindle won. I am making great profits on my puts.If you're long you can sell now, or sell at $8. Your choice.
Amazon also has their huge ecosystem of content that B&N just can't match. Barnes & Noble's specialty is books, and that's about it. Amazon offers so much more than that, especially with their Amazon Prime service.
Amazon's huge ecosystem (books, music, movies, Amazon Appstore, etc.) is ALMOST as extensive as Apple's. Yeah you can spout the numbers game, claiming that Apple has "over 700,000 apps", but Amazon is no slouch either.
Both these posts are retarded and VERY obviously an effort to scare people into selling. Riggio would buy it outright before it gets to $8.Oh, that's right, you're new here. You probably don't even know who Riggio is.
Keep talking about Riggio as if he's your brother-in-law. He doesn't even know you exist, yet you claim to know the thoughts inside his head.Let me guess, you held Enron too because you knew it was "coming back," didn't you?Cut your losses, buy some puts and recoup your losses. Or keep holding, makes no difference.
I have been short but I beleieve $9 would represent a value if new management came in. Books still have a place just not what it was.

The dominant form of dragexperienced by vehicles (bikes, cars, planes, etc.) at operatingspeeds is called form drag. It increases quadraticallywith velocity (essentially because the amount of air you run intoincreases with and so does the amount of force you must exert on each small volumeof air). Thus
where is the cross-sectional area of the vehicle and is called the coefficient of drag.
Part A
Consider a vehicle moving with constantvelocity . Find the power dissipated by form drag.
Express your answer in terms of, ,and speed .
Part B
A certain car has an engine that provides amaximum power . Suppose that the maximum speed of the car, , is limited by a drag force proportional to the square ofthe speed (as in the previous part). The car engine is nowmodified, so that the new power is 10 percent greater than the original power(.
Assume the following:
- The top speed is limited by air drag.
- The magnitude of the force of air drag at these speeds isproportional to the square of the speed.
Express the percent increase in topspeed numerically to two significant figures.

The key is to just hang up with these people and contact your company they say they're calling about. Usually your company has a fraud department and you can do a trace on your phone, so if they have the balls to bother you again, you've already got them logged once and can start police action against them.

I understand this is not completely relevant to this forum but I could not see anywhere more appropriate to post this query. Sorry.
I recently moved my blog from Blogger to WordPress.
With this move I also changed my domain to blogdeluxe.net while redirecting my old one, blogdeluxeonline.com to this new one.
While the redirect works when using the address bar it does not work on Google Search.
If you search 'Blog De Luxe' on google you will see that an error message is reported.
Is there anyway in which to force Google to redirect the old domain to the new one?
Your help will be very valued!

Bend over backwards for my Celiac wife. Their book easily displays allergens and they get a new box and clean spoons.
1303 Celebrity Cir, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577
I went in and asked if they had gluten free flavors and the employee got a book listing all the GF ice creams. They were great about avoiding cross-contamination, asking if I had an allergy and taking extra precautions with scoopers, opening a new carton, etc. Awesome job; keep up the good work here! You made this GF girl very happy!
1303 Celebrity Cir, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577
I stopped in here on a whim while shopping at Broadway at the Beach. I asked what flavors were gluten free and they brought out a book which listed what I could eat. Surprisingly it was a good handful of flavors! The staff washed the ice cream scoops before scooping, washed the mixer before making my milkshake and I was very impressed! Now they just need gluten free ice cream cones which I am really surprised they didn't carry!
