The Power - Poem by Rajiv Prajapati
A wave of power rushes past you on a windy day
waving your hair into disarray and tingling your skin
A formless power makes you comfortable in the biting cold
the same power fills you in agony, pain and suffering
when you go straight to possess the heart of that comfortable power
and it is the same power which falls out of the clouds in little drops
and each of these are a single form of power
for the power is in the air
and the power is in the fire and the power is in the water.
A beam of power ricochets into your eyes from something
and you are illuminated with the beauty of the complete world
you see the ugly, you see the amazing, you see the violent,
and you see every solid and pattern
you see darkness behind an object in the form of it
lying in the ground or right beside your arm
and even in the darkness, there are objects and things
which has a power that enables you a touch of it.
All for the reason that the power is in the objects,
and the power is in the light and even the darkness and shadows.
A form of the same power enables you,
to know the presence of your woman near you
the same form of power gives you, the knowledge
of the proximity of your best food.
For the power is in the scent and smell
and the power is even in your nose that smells.
A vibe of power rings in your ear
and you know that something is somewhere near
and your tongue that knows the quality of the food
is all the power that's doing you good
the sound is itself the power
and so is the ear and the tongue
the tongue that so eagerly tastes your favorite food
the food which contains the power in itself too.
All this time you and me are here
and all this time everything else is there,
is for the power is everywhere;
the power pumps inside your body all the time
and even when you are dead and bloodless,
the power is still there in your veins and muscles.
The power is the life, the soul
the touch, the light, the darkness, the sound
the sentiments flowing inside you is the power
the strike you make in anger is the power,
and the power is existence, energy, substance, and motion.
The power was in the place where God was born
the God is Himself the power
and like God Himself,
the power is omnipotent, and it is there where existence is there.

No position is primed to jump into the fantasy football world like the running back position. Each year, several rookies contribute...and knowing which to invest in can take you a long way towards a fantasy football championship.
It is important to remember that a player's draft position in the NFL Draft does not necessarily guarantee that player success in the NFL. It is also unusual for the draft order to predict the most fantasy value for a given year.
You need look no further than last year's poster child for fantasy football sleepers: LeGarrette Blount of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Without further delay, let's jump into this year's crop of exciting rookies.

Making tax evaders Pay: A better solution than taxing rich Ashish Shah Chartered Accountant Last Updated : 18 Feb 2013 04:09:54 PM IST File Photo
As the clock is ticking, the final pieces of the jigsaw puzzle of the Indian budget are being put in place. The finance minister promises that the red lines on fiscal prudence would not be crossed and a responsible budget would be presented.
Undoubtedly, the budget will set the stage for economic developments in the coming year. The finance minister candidly admits that for reviving growth, the ball is in the government's court. What remains to be seen is how the government plans to achieve its objective of reviving growth. But, a question that continues to be more debated is: will the rich be taxed more?
Inheritance tax and higher rate of tax for the "super rich" are being hotly discussed in the corridors of the finance ministry. C Rangarajan, the chairman of the Prime Minister's economic advisory council, tabled the idea. Rangarajan has found support in Azim Premji, the chairman of Wipro, who said that there was merit in the idea of having a higher marginal tax rate for the "very, very wealthy". One hears that the government is seriously considering it.
Higher tax on the super rich looks like an idea borrowed from the developed world, which is trying to beat its rising fiscal deficit with increased taxes on the rich. Unlike US where rich have been taxed and France which is also planning to tax reach, we are a developing economy and need to do a meaningful evaluation of the proposal before changing the rate of tax in haste.
In the past, India has witnessed higher tax rates and that did not help strengthen our fiscal health. Empirical evidence suggests that the direct tax-to-GDP ratio goes up when tax rates are slashed. Higher taxes on the super rich may deteriorate investor sentiment and hamper capital formation. It may be all the more counterproductive in a country that is trying to achieve a high savings rate and higher investment levels. Instead, India needs to make policies that promote investment and economic activities.
When we talk about a higher rate of tax for the super rich, it is imperative that we compare the absolute tax rates to the effective tax rates (the tax payable as a percentage of income). India has a lower maximum marginal rate as compared with the US and the UK. But this maximum marginal rate of tax of 30.9% kicks off at a much lower threshold income (Rs.10 lakh) in India. Any increase in the rate of tax must be at a substantially high level of income such that it is truly the "super rich" who pay higher taxes.
A random change in tax rates without defining the type of super rich that are being considered may also be counterproductive. The definition of super rich is not clear. We are well aware that super rich in the agricultural sector still live off others and don't pay taxes because agricultural income is exempt from tax. Taxing the agricultural super rich would be a welcome step towards making them pay their way.
Also, the number of declared wealthy taxpayers is too small to make a substantial difference to the country's fiscal health. With nearly 35 million taxpayers, only 1.7 million declare income over Rs.10 lakh. Nearly 89% of tax paying population is below the Rs.5 lakh threshold. Additionally, taxpayers with income above Rs.20 lakhs already contribute 63% of the tax collections. Taxing this rich more may not be the optimal policy to substantially increase revenues.
To garner additional revenues, it is more important to widen the tax base and improve compliance. Last year, as per an estimate, less than 3% of the country's population filed their tax returns. A large section of the Indian society is thriving on the parallel black economy. Tax administration and processes need to be overhauled to identify tax evaders and severely punish them. A well spread tax information network must be created to track tax evasion. The government should take steps to encourage better tax compliance. Implementing the goods and services tax will create a unified base for taxing purposes and improve compliance as well.
Indeed, one must look at both sides of the coin before making any decision on taxing the rich at a higher rate. The author advocates a better tax regulatory framework, increased tax compliance and more steps to promote investor confidence. Taxing those who anyway pay taxes will not make up for those who don't pay taxes. Moreover, India needs to send out a positive signal with its policies to improve its growth trajectory. However, what the finance minister decides remains to be seen, but the promise of "fiscal prudence" keeps the hope of a 'responsible budget alive.

I hit a dry spell in the land of gaming for a while there. Last May I got married and had to do the whole wifey thing. Ya know, at least until I could break him in. Anyway, I went back to Classicville for a while. I got Chrono Trigger on DS, Both Star Oceans on PSP, then I just broke down and plugged up ye ol PS1 and got down on Vagrant Story & FFIX. Played Ocarina of Time again along with Mario 64 and Perfect Dark. Finally beat God of War 2. Played Beyond Good & Evil for the first time. Beat all of the Jak & Daxter and Ratchet & Clank games. Even ran through Shenmue 1 & 2 again.
The reason why you ask? Simple. I just needed a reminder of why I play games in the first place. I know some people get caught up in graphics. Others, their favorite system makes most of their gaming decisions. I consider myself a "true" gamer. I don't restrict myself to one system or genre. I at least am willing to try something new. I play games cuz they are FUN. That's why they are called GAMES to begin with. Imagine if I had stayed a Nintendo blue blood. I would have missed FFVII, Metal Gear Solid, Phantasy Star, God of War, Ico, Baldur's Gate (PC), Sonic The Hedgehog (good ol' Sonic not the current crap), the Ys' series. By the same token if I stayed a Sega or Sony or PC hound I would have missed out on Nintendo's wonderful stable as well. Sure one system is at some point king and others die away (RIP Sega & Atari consoles) but all have brought innovations to the over-all genre that I love.
Anyway, once I got all the nostalgia out of my system. I got busy on some new stuff. Working the dog out of Fallout 3 and Dragon Age. Can't stop playing them. Hadn't been this addicted to a game since the Baldur's Gate series. Uncharted breaks the RPG stalemate as does CODMW2. Got my copy of Mass Effect 2 and will start serious work on that in the next week or so. My older sis got the new Ratchet & Clank so I'll snag it when she's through. I've also begun passing the torch to the next generation by introducing New Super Mario Bros. Wii to my two lil cousins who are 8 & 4. They cut their teeth playing it on my DS and hungered for more. Glad to see their mom (Santa) got it for them.
Anyway, gotta do the wifey thing and make breakfast. Then after the archdemon I go ......again

For the best deals for your money here are some tips when looking, finding and taking out a car rental.
1.When getting a car rental check for available upgrades at no charge, you'd want the best deal so you'd want the best car, to do this, you should go pickup your car early in the morning, when the other cars haven't been returned yet, this way there would be a shortage on economy cars and the firm might just give you an upgrade for a lower price.
2.Get an internet car rental. These types of rentals offer internet only discounts, and sometimes even accepts find a car at your own price methods where you just give them your budget and they'll find the best deal for you, plus you wont have to go anywhere to get a rental.

Trailer Tow Mirrors (upgrade for 2002 Exc)
View Single Post
Join Date: Jun 2008

If you have power/heated mirrors now, then you have the wiring for the heat and power mirror motors...you just need to add in the running light and turn signal leads. For your new mirrors, they should make an adapter that changes the round plugs to the rectangular ones...
(this is the adapter for the "old style" power+heat mirrors, but it should be similar wiring for both mirrors)
Mine had the tow mirrors, but only power/heat - no running lights or signals.
All I had to do was to splice in to the extra wires on the mirror harness and run leads to the turn signal and running lights (I used one of those 'line taps'). All you need to do is to find the pins that are not part of your harness and then hit them with 12v to figure out which one is the signal lead and which one is the marker light (running light) lead.
Replacement for the old style tow mirrors was dirt simple...disconnect, unbolt, bolt the new ones on, tap the wiring, connect and run the leads.
For the new style, I can't imagine it would be much different.

Laser skin resurfacing is the most modern and innovative method to treat fine lines and wrinkles which have formed around the mouth and the eyes. It is also used to treat hyper pigmentation of the skin and facial scars. Laser skin resurfacing is also effective in treating large portions of the face. It is a viable alternative to other facial cosmetic surgeries that involve bleeding and bruising and other facial discomforts.

A handful of nuts is a convenient snack -- here's how to make the best of it by choosing the best types of nuts and the healthiest ways to eat them!
Just the Facts Most varieties of nuts are high in unsaturated fats, omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, vitamin E, plant sterols, and L-arginine. They're also high in fat and calories (lowest in calories are almonds, cashews, pistachios, while highest in calories are macademia nuts and pecans). Almonds are the nuts highest in calcium.
For Heart Health Studies including the Adventist Study, the Iowa Women's Health Study, the Nurses' Health Study, and the Physicians' Health Study have shown a consistent 30% to 50% lower risk of myocardial infarction, sudden cardiac death, and cardiovascular disease associated with eating nuts several times per week.
The best nuts for your heart are walnuts. They contain high amounts of alpha linoleic acid, which has been found to be as effective as olive oil in reducing inflammation and oxidation after a fatty meal, per a 2006 Spanish study. Eating nuts has also been shown to lower the low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or "bad") cholesterol level in the blood and improve the health of the lining of your arteries.
Snacking Ideas Eat them raw or dry, not packaged or roasted in oil (nutrients can be destroyed by high roasting temperatures and oil used may be the unhealthy hydrogenated variety or high in omega-6 unhealthy fats.
Because of their high calorie content, you should use nuts as a substitute for saturated fats such as those in meats, eggs, and dairy. A serving is a small handful or 2 tablespoons of nut butter. And remember, you'll cancel out the benefit of nuts if they're covered with chocolate, sugar, or salt. Try snacking on them instead of chips -- or throw them on a salad for a little crunchiness.
The Peanut Addendum Peanuts are actually legumes, not nuts. But they are healthy in their own right -- high in folate, which is essential for brain development and may protect against cognitive decline.
So don't forget to make this healthy food group part of your diet. That'd be nuts.
Strong evidence suggests women may not need mammograms if they receive a thorough clinical breast examination every year. A large and long study in The British Medical Journal published Tuesday is one of the few randomized, controlled evaluations of mammography in recent history. It examined Canadian women assigned to have regular mammograms plus breast exams or to have breast exams alone. Researchers found that death rates from breast cancer and from all causes were the same in both groups. It is definitely time to re-evaluate guidelines by looking at the screening issue from all angles. The more information the better.
Women who spend less time sitting live a longer, healthier life. And it seems to make an especially big difference for non-Hispanic women of color. This message comes from a new study based on 92,234 women followed for 12 years in the Women's Health Initiative. Women who sat the least—4 hours a day or less—were about 20% less likely to die for any reason, 38% less likely to die of heart disease, and 42% less likely to die of cancer than women who sat the most—11 hours a day or more. The difference for black women was much bigger, with the most active 37% less likely to die of any cause, and the difference for Asians, Native Americans, and Pacific Islanders was even bigger—45% less likely. In terms of cancer, greater activity made a bigger difference for women under 70, who were one-third less likely to die of cancer than the very inactive women.
So, the numbers all add up—moving every day as much as you can is critical, probably more so than a fitness routine after a long day sitting at your desk. And if you have a desk job? Stick to your fitness routine, but take frequent little breaks just to get up and move around the office.
If everyone ate an extra apple a day, we might save as many lives as statin drugs save for everyone over age 50, say British researchers. No, it doesn't mean that if you take a statin you should toss out your pills and eat more apples instead. But it does show that even simple changes in diet could do wonders before you have to use costly drugs. The researchers at Oxford University used a mathematical model to show that this simple step toward getting your recommended five fruits and vegetables a day could prevent or delay some 8,500 heart attacks and strokes every year in Britain.
At a time when achieving new heart disease guidelines might mean having nearly a third of all adults take statins, it's good to remember we could do as much by changing our diets—and by remembering your mother was right when she said, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Thanks, Mom.
This week we wrote about what women of the sexual revolution should know about menopause and HPV reactivation for More.com. Here's an excerpt:
A study released early in 2013 of women 35 to 60 years old found that HPV in women at or after menopause may represent an infection acquired years ago. Think of it like chickenpox—that virus can lie dormant in the bodies of people who were infected as children, then come raging back as shingles later in life when the immune system weakens. It's the same with HPV. The reactivation risk may increase around age 50."

You see, I live in the town where Anthrax shut down the local post office. Yes, the letter to Tom Brokaw, for some reason I still don't understand, went through my town. So, we are not totally unaware of the dangers of chemical and biological dangers. Er, well, we treat them like all the other dangers, basically ignoring them as we would drive by the quarantined site to visit the new Home Depot that opened across the street.
So, my company puts up this sign that reads "Shelter in Place" on a wall I pass by each day. No information circulated, just this yellow sign with these figures under a roof with the words "Shelter In Place" on it. So, my first thought is that apparently they are worried about the whole Iran nuke deal, and they expect us to stand there once the bombs drop. Don't think that's where I'm going to be standing if that stuff goes down, but whatever.
Still, seems like a lame type of protection for nukes, I'm thinking, so I use the resource that is the Internet to find me some more information on this Shelter in Place. Apparently the Red Cross is somehow involved in this new safety craze. From their site:
Shelter in Place" is one of the basic instructions you may receive from public safety officials during a chemical emergency in your community. Sheltering in place offers you and your family immediate protection for a short time in your home.
If you are told to shelter in place, take your children and pets indoors immediately.
So, this is what it's come to? Our national safety policy in the state of a chemical emergency is "You're on your own?" Did the uni-bomber devise this master plan? "When the s*** hits the fan, run to the cabin."
Ok, for the record, most of the nation has somewhat of an education. At least, enough of an education to go inside when it rains. If there's a giant gas cloud, I think we'll get the same idea. Maybe I'm being too generous with this thinking, but I would bet that the majority of the population would RUN INSIDE if deadly chemicals were burning their lungs OUTSIDE!!! Who the hell is spending money to come up with this crap?
Oh, more on this next time. I could spend hours on this.

JAPAN: President says Toyota will not close home factories
By just-auto.com editorial team | 18 October 2010
Export Toyota production at the Tsutsumi plant in central Japan in mid-2009
Toyota chief Akio Toyoda has denied the company is looking to increase production overseas at the expense of its domestic factories as the surging yen makes it more costly to produce vehicles in Japan.
Following a number of speculative reports at the weekend, the company president said although ''logically, it doesn't make sense to manufacture in Japan,'' he would be concerned over the future of the country which largely depends on manufacturing.
He told reporters in Nagoya: ''I know that the present situation for manufacturing is very tough, but our Toyota group places much importance on maintaining production (bases in Japan).''
Japanese manufacturers have stepped up moves to transfer production overseas as the yen has shot up against the dollar and other major currencies and hovered at a 15-and-a-half year high of around JPY81 to the US dollar in Tokyo on Monday.
Toyoda also said he hopes the government will help nurture the automobile business as the pillar of growth for industry and that his company plans to expand its housing business abroad in the future.
At the weekend the Asahi newspaper reported Toyota was considering a second assembly plant in Mexico to counter the effects of the rising yen.
Toyota currently makes pickup trucks mainly for the US market in Mexico. The newspaper said the carmaker plans to produce compact cars for North America at the new factory from around 2013. It did not cite its sources.
The Tokyo Shimbun daily said Toyota is considering halting exports from Japan of the Corolla sedan from around 2013 and shifting that output overseas.
The Corolla is built in 15 countries. In 2009, Toyota made about 235,000 Corollas in Japan - nearly 60% of which were exported - and 815,000 abroad. Toyota is due to start producing the Corolla at its new Mississippi plant from autumn 2011 after the closure of a California factory formerly owned with General Motors.
Tokyo Shimbun also reported that Toyota was also considering shifting production of all Corolla cars sold in Japan to one of its subsidiaries. Toyota currently builds the model at its own Takaoka factory and at two units, Kanto Auto Works and Central Motor Co.
Most Japanese carmakers have vowed not to close any assembly plants in the country but executives have warned that suppliers may be forced to shift production abroad.
Mitsubishi Motors president Osamu Masuko told reporters last week he thought the government did not realise how much damage the strong yen poses to companies.
Nissan said earlier this month it may turn one of its Japanese factories into a new subsidiary, allowing it to broach wage negotiations with labour unions and seek lower prices from suppliers.

WASHINGTON - Short supply and fast-growing demand are behind this winter's high natural gas prices, industry representatives and a federal regulator told a congressional panel Wednesday.
Some lawmakers remained skeptical and said they couldn't help but wonder if price manipulation or some other factor explained spot natural gas prices that quadrupled over 12 months, but they have declined in recent weeks.
Curt Hebert, chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, told a subcommittee of the House Energy and Commerce Committee "the fundamental structure of natural gas markets remains sound" despite sharp prices that have sent heating bills soaring across the country.
"You've got a situation where supply is chasing demand," said Hebert, whose commission regulates interstate transport of natural gas but not gas prices at the wellhead, which have been free of government control since 1989.
Rep. Charles Norwood, R-Ga., pointed to an Energy Department chart that showed wholesale gas prices surging from about $2.50 to more than $10 per thousand cubic feet over the 12 months ending in December.
"That's a rather amazing spike," said Norwood. "Something strange had to happen."
Hebert attributed much of the problem to utilities using more gas for electricity generation, but that didn't satisfy Norwood. "Did demand really go up that much in the last 12 months?" he wondered.
Like Norwood, Rep. Steve Largent, R-Okla., has been hearing from constituents about high natural gas prices. "It's the No. 1 complaint," said Largent.
Representatives of several energy trade associations told the committee the answer lies in more production, more pipeline construction and now-closed federal lands opened to gas development.
"Competition for natural gas works. We are moving more natural gas today than we ever have before," said Cuba Wadlington, president of Williams Gas Pipeline Co. in Tulsa, Okla.
But the sharp jump in wholesale prices has some even in the industry perplexed.
"The answers go beyond the simple laws of supply and demand," said Jack Hilliard, general manager of the publicly owned gas utility in Florence, Ala. He testified on behalf of municipal-owned gas distribution companies, who have struggled with the high wholesale prices.
About two-thirds of a customer's gas bill reflects the wholesale price of the fuel, and the rest is transportation, storage and distribution to users.

Symbols that Stand for Themselves
This important new work by Roy Wagner is about the autonomy of symbols and their role in creating culture. Its argument, anticipated in the author's previous book, The Invention of Culture, is at once symbolic, philosophical, and evolutionary: meaning is a form of perception to which human beings are physically and mentally adapted. Using examples from his many years of research among the Daribi people of New Guinea as well as from Western culture, Wagner approaches the question of the creation of meaning by examining the nonreferential qualities of symbols such as their aesthetic and formal properties that enable symbols to stand for themselves.

Researchers envision intelligent implants

An interdisciplinary group of scientists envision an intelligent implant covered in microelectronic mechanical systems (MEMs)-based biosensors that could detect debilitating infections early and identify the bacteria responsible.
The implant would then provide therapy by dispensing the appropriate antibacterial compound from an internal reservoir and monitor the effectiveness of the treatment. In addition, the implant would be able to communicate what it had done back to a physician using wireless… read more

A mechanically-excited sessile water drop exhibits surface patterns that vary with driving amplitude and frequency. At small amplitudes, drops exhibit axisymmetric wave patterns. At sufficiently large amplitudes and at particular frequencies, symmetry breaks and there appear subharmonically-resonating sectoral and tesseral mode shapes. We report observations from experiment and compare to results from modeling the parametric excitation of the drops. The modeling uses the spectrum and eigenmodes from a linear stability analysis of the inviscid sessile Rayleigh drop with moving/pinned contact-line. Manipulating drop motion can be important to a variety of applications.

Gannondale to close in June
Gannondale is closing 80 years after the Sisters of Our Lady of Charity founded the facility to help adolescent girls who committed a crime, suffered abuse or had family problems.
"I think we knew this was coming," said Sister Carol Pregno, provincial for the Carrollton, Ohio-based religious congregation.
She said the sisters made the decision to close the residential facility on East Lake Road in Harborcreek Township after recommendations by Gannondale's board of directors and administration. The nonprofit agency owned by the sisters will cease daily operations as of June 30.
"The very difficult decision to discontinue residential services comes primarily as a result of the significant and continual decrease in the total population of youth being placed in residential care throughout the state of Pennsylvania," said a Gannondale statement.
The statement said the trend in the juvenile justice and child welfare systems is now to keep youth closer to home and out of residential facilities.
In addition to fewer residents, Pregno said, there also have been cutbacks in paying for social services.
She said per diems paid by counties that sent girls to the facility didn't cover the cost of running it. The difference was made up through donations, fundraisers and subsidies from the sisters, Pregno said.
Less than a dozen girls are at the facility now, and services for them will hopefully be found elsewhere, she said.
Pregno also said efforts would be undertaken to help the approximately 40 staff members find new jobs. None are nuns.
The future of the Gannondale property, which is more than 70 acres and holds several buildings, hasn't been determined. Pregno said the sisters would probably try to find another use for it.

Leonardo DiCaprio's Intense Watergun Fight Is Actually Why Waterguns Were Invented
It's what we've been waiting for.
The year was 1989 and the world was #blessed with mass production of the Super Soaker. AKA the best summer toy to ever be invented. Even though millions of children get to enjoy these waterguns every year during warm months, it's not until today that the water gun lived up to its full potential. That's because until this moment there were no pictures of Leonardo Dicaprio using one.
2. BEHOLD. The innocent looking watergun standoff between Leo and his friend was so much more than meets the eye.
3. I mean, there was speed walking and heavy weaponry involved.
4. There was e-cig usage which has to mean something.
5. There was slow, stealth behavior. See, that guy in the back doesn't even know Leo is about to pounce.
6. And there was running.
7. So much enthusiastic running.
8. May this day be remembered forever.

I would finally get back my social life and feel normal again.
The lonely stoner seems to free his mind at night.
As I spend most of my time (when not at boarding school) in my own room at home, wasting away my time on the internet, I would obviously choose option B. I'd stay in the same town for the rest of my life and honestly wouldn't care one bit. I enjoy isolation, I hate change.
much awesome
many swag
i went with no more travel, and i would live in amsterdam owning my own cafe, weed and an xbox will be all i need
Nice to see the Netherlands is leaving a positive lasting impression on some people *sigh*...
OH WELL... no Internet. Wouldn't like it, but that's why it's called punishment, right?
i went with no more travel, and i would live in amsterdam owning my own cafe, weed and an xbox will be all i need
i second that notion with a token motion
Cheating games not gamers
If I were thinking clearly, I'd say option A. But I have just got back from a 5 hour bus trip in the hot hot sun and I am not loving travel right now. So option B. The city being Wellington (NZ).
I voted No Travel i am in a position of luxury, why at 64 years old the roads in the UK are murder for travelling also i don't do a great deal of travelling,so the interenet won out right.lol the internet.

Residents still crazy after 40 years of weird
As anniversary commemorations go, the Residents' "The Wonder of Weird" tour is largely free of pomp and circumstance, if their Sunday night stop at Turner Hall Ballroom was any indication.
To mark their 40th year together, the three gentlemen of this band did have an appropriately unusual prop: a large, illuminated, inflatable decoration of Santa and (presumably) Frosty the Snowman not quite touching candy canes together. »Read Full Article

Drink, meet dish, Part 2: A smart Cocktail Week menu at c.1880
I rarely have room in my schedule to attend special pairing dinners, those multicourse events that match dishes with wine, beer or cocktails. But I love 'em; it's such a pleasure to see chefs unleash their creativity and to hear what went into the making of a dish and the spirit, and taste how the food and drink relate.
For the inaugural Milwaukee Cocktail Week, c.1880 in Walker's Point is serving a five-course menu on Monday with drinks made with Great Lakes Distillery spirits. It opens with a riff on a Bloody Mary, in food and drink: »Read Full Blog Post

Skylight takes Beethoven to Bollywood with ferocious 'Fidelio'
The Skylight Music Theatre doesn't have an official mascot, but it might think about borrowing the giant tiger Raghava KK designed for its "Fidelio." The feline could serve as a fitting avatar for the ferocious vitality new artistic director Viswa Subbaraman is bringing to the Skylight.
Subbaraman and his creative team infused this production of Beethoven's only opera with a set design, costumes, movements and gestures drawn from Indian culture and Bollywood. They brought color and movement to an opera that could easily be static on stage, and a liveliness of spirit to a show that could come across as a bit preachy, with its brotherhood-of-man lyrics, while sacrificing nothing musically. »Read Full Article(2)

From yesterday's filing of CXW's 10-K, it has been noted that, from 3Q04 ��> 4Q04, the company's shares outstanding (S/O) increased 10.8539+%, from 35,266,206 to 39,093,965 or 3,827,759 shares.The market capitalization (M-C) currently shown on the Y!-F's Summary Quote & Key Statistics pages have yet to be updated (by data provider, Reuters) to reflect this increase in S/O. It could take them a week or weeks to do so (albeit, they've been much more prompt at such M-C updating, recently).Based on yesterday's closing price of $36.88, CXW's M-C should be on the order of $1.442 billion.
How did the General miss this? CCA also "forgot" to mention on their 10K that the Floyd County Kentucky's 600 bed prison with departing Indiana cons is about to be shuttered, along with North Fork, Prairie, etc. Does the SEC really care if the filing is "reality based?"That omission is on a par with CCA's claim last time out that they hadn't any escapes from in '02 and '03.Time for us all to retreat, eh General? Except for those who thought Gallipoli was a good idea.
I read the 10-K - well, not with a magnifying glass, but I skimmed through it - and I found mention of the potential closing of Otter Creek as well as the vacancies in North Fork, Prairie, and Crowley County Colorado for that matter. It's not that hard to find.

Hi Marylin
Beatiful landscape and nice contrast of the sky.
Greetings! Toni.
Hi Marilyn
Another beautiful photograph from your trip south. The landscape is wonderful and the clouds shadows on the ground are simply gorgeous.
Regards Steven
Hello Marilyn! What a beautiful picture you uploaded here! Wonderful landscape and a lovely clauded sky! Great work!
Greetings from Holland, Ria
A beautiful landscape and nice clouds Marilyn!! greetings, jenper
Those clouds aren't promising anything good, but impressive yo look at! Greetings, Ed.
Beautiful new uploads Marilyn and specially this one is impressive(although in my eyes!) i like the colours the clouds and the enormous depth!Y* for it! Regards! Tjeert
Hello Marilyn,
While I like the grand landscape very much, I am also interested in the dead pines. Are they the aftermath of the beetle infestation, similar to that which is sweeping away the forests of Colorado at the moment? Or fire? I note regrowth so I presume if it was the beetle that there can be regrowth.
And will you map this one for us please?
The women of Tonga await your visit!
I'm glad that you enjoyed this wonderful scene with me, Toni, Steven, Ria, jenper, Ed, Bruce, Tjeert, and Ian. At the moment, I'm in Atlanta doing historical research, and we "escaped" to the mountains this past weekend.
Thanks, Bruce, for help in answering Ian's question. I was going to add some information but hadn't got around to it.
At Mt. Mitchell, which we also visited, there was a good display about the trees, pointing out the factors Bruce did, and one more: the devastation caused by the Balsam woolly adelgid. There's an interesting description of the forest in the "The spruce-fir forest" section of the Wikipedia article.
Again greetings to all of you, and thanks. And now I'll try to map the photo! The satellite image isn't very good, and there aren't many human constructions in the area to go by.
Hello Marilyn,
I was looking through random photos of the south on google maps and I was surprised to see so many of the photos were by you. I didn't know you had come down here. I liked this one in particular. The bold clouds and the beautiful view make this shot exceptional.
Best regards from Georgia,
I'm glad you found this, Kyle, and thank you for the comment. It was an inspiring view!
I'm doing some historical research that involves my using archives in Atlanta. (They moved there from Rochester, NY, which was so much easier to reach from our southern Ontario home!) My husband and I have made three trips so far, and will be making another in a little more than a week. Each time we so about two weeks work in the archives, going somewhere on the weekend in between, when the archives of course closes. On our July trip we "headed for the hills," and had a wonderful time in the Smoky Mountains.
(Long ago, before I was married, I worked one year in Lynchburg, VA, and two in Greensburo, NC, and I've attended a number of meetings in Atlanta and two in the sea islands, so I wasn't a complete stranger even before this recent travel.)
Best wishes, Marilyn
I read an impressive life story intertwined with photography. I've seen beautiful photos and as nature lover, I stopped at una.Va want power and inspiration to write with light ... Now, at the end of the year, please allow me to wish you happy holidays and a New Year 2013 with health and abundance.Like+Fav. Stefan
I very much appreciate your comment, Stefan, and hope that 2013 is a very good for you, too.
Best wishes from Canada, Marilyn

If you want to insert rows in a worksheet, you probably know that you can do so by choosing Rows from the Insert menu. This works marvelously for inserting single rows.
If you want to insert multiple rows, you have two choices. First, you can insert a single row by using the menu, as already mentioned. Then you simply press F4 repeat the command and keep inserting rows.
The second method involves selecting rows before inserting. For instance, if you want to insert five rows, select five existing rows in the worksheet, then choose Rows from the Insert menu. Excel dutifully inserts five rows in your worksheet, just before the first row you selected.

The Doctor vs Davros: 5 Great MomentsFri, 06/10/2016 - 7:00am
This Monster Month of June is dedicated to that mastermind gone mad, the creator of the Daleks himself: Davros! Despite his madness, Davros has always brought out the philosophical side of the Doctor, and each meeting, while perhaps not action-packed in the traditional sense, is full to the brim with moral quandaries. And despite their obvious antagonism towards each other, Davros and the Doctor have one of the most interesting relationships in the history of Doctor Who.
"That power would set me up above the gods, and through the Daleks, I shall have that power!"
The first appearance of Davros in Doctor Who, Genesis features the Fourth Doctor on a mission from the Time Lords to prevent the creation of the Daleks, thereby saving countless lives in the future. Before resorting to more genocidal means (the "Do I have the right?" scene), the Doctor first tries to reason with Davros, to persuade him to abandon his scientific experiments of Kaled mutation.
In one of the most famous scenes in Who history, the Doctor asks Davros a hypothetical question: "Davros, if you had created a virus in your laboratory, something contagious and infectious that killed on contact, a virus that would destroy all other forms of life... would you allow its use?" Davros muses on this question, before losing it completely in his excitement of having that much power at his disposal. It's in this scene that the Doctor and the audience find out just how unhinged this mad scientist is, and that appealing to his sense of reason and empathy isn't likely to work. Ever.Resurrection of the Daleks
"You hesitate, Doctor. If I were you, I would be dead."
"I lack your practice, Davros."
"You are soft, like all Time Lords. You prefer to stand and watch. Action requires courage. Something you lack."
This next meeting (their third) features another opportunity for the Doctor to eliminate Davros. They talk, of course, but when it becomes apparent that Davros is his same-old homicidal self, the Doctor realises there's no hope and aims a gun at him. Davros then admits that he made his Daleks too ruthless, and says that he wants to make some modifications to his creations, to program them for such emotions as compassion. But, as the Doctor works out… only to make the Daleks more efficient killers.
"The Daleks shall become Lords of Time! We shall become all-"
"Powerful! Crush the lesser races! Conquer the galaxy! Unimaginable power! Unlimited rice pudding! Etcetera, etcetera!"
In Remembrance, we see the Daleks split into two rival groups: the Imperial Daleks, following the Dalek Emperor, and the Renegade Daleks, with the Dalek Supreme as their leader. Both factions are searching for the Hand of Omega, a powerful Gallifreyan device that the First Doctor had hidden on 1960's Earth for safekeeping.
The Seventh Doctor meets Davros halfway through Part 4, where he is revealed as the Dalek Emperor and revels in his triumph at acquiring the Hand of Omega. The mad scientist then announces his intent to destroy Gallifrey and the Time Lords, a precursor to the Time War. The Doctor mocks Davros and his loud rhetoric ("Unimaginable power! Unlimited rice pudding!"), which really boils Davros's blood (assuming he has any!). In a fit of rage, he decides to use the Omega Device on Skaro's sun to bring about destruction to the enemies of the Daleks, but unwittingly plays right into the Doctor's hands. Skaro's sun turns supernova, destroys the Dalek's home planet, and the Hand then annihilates the Dalek forces orbiting Earth – all part of the Doctor's plan. Davros escapes (again) and lives on to mull over just how cunning and ruthless the Doctor can be when you get on his bad side.
Their meeting also features a gem of a burn by Davros: "Ah, Doctor, you have changed again. Your appearance is as inconstant as your intelligence!"
Remembrance was to be the last appearance of the Daleks until the 2005 episode Dalek, and the last appearance of Davros until…The Stolen Earth/Journey's End
"How many have died in your name? The Doctor. The man who keeps running, never looking back. Because he dare not, out of shame. This is my final victory, Doctor. I have shown you… yourself."
Davros returns, after 20 years off our screens! And the Doctor is just as surprised as we are to see him. Assumed to have been lost at the Gates of Elysium in the first year of the Time War, Davros is back with a vengeance. His plan to steal 27 planets to create a Reality Bomb and wipe out all matter in all dimensions is truly deranged, and even the Doctor seems shocked at the extent of Davros's madness.
When Martha threatens to destroy the Earth and Captain Jack threatens to wipe out the Dalek Crucible, Davros taunts the Doctor about how he brings out the best and the worst in people – the Doctor fashions his friends into weapons and many of them have died in his name, and so shows him that, in a way, he isn't so different from Davros himself.
"Which side are you on? Are you the enemy?"
"I'm not sure that any of that matters. Friends, enemies. So long as there's mercy. Always mercy."
And now we've come full circle. In a fabulous nod to the classic "Do I have the right?" scene in Genesis of the Daleks (above), the Doctor encounters a young Davros on a ruined battlefield on Skaro, pleading for help. Initially the Doctor is keen to lend a hand, but as soon as he learns the boy's name, he scarpers as fast as he can, leaving Davros to the mercy of the hand mines. Thousands of years later, a dying Davros appeals to the Doctor's compassion (a good tactic) and summons him back to Skaro to meet for the last time. The evil genius once again tempts the Doctor to commit genocide against his creations, the difference this time being that this decision would be made out of choice rather than necessity. Of course, the Doctor refuses, as he always has done.
Their conversations in The Witch's Familiar are full of regret and sadness – the Doctor can see that Davros truly is close to death and takes pity on him, giving him a tiny burst of regeneration energy so that Davros can see the sunrise one last time. Obviously this has all been a particularly cruel trap to snare the Doctor and steal his regeneration energy, although the Time Lord of course anticipated this and turned Davros's plan against him, in a rather 'revolting' way.
Davros is clearly back to his old scheming ways, but even manipulating the Doctor's compassion against him isn't enough to outsmart our favourite Time Lord. In fact, it made his compassion stronger, as the Doctor corrects his mistake from the beginning of The Magician's Apprentice and saves the young Davros from the battlefield, teaching him the importance of mercy as they walk hand-in-hand back to the boy's home.

Back when beer was good. "The stubby beer bottle was used by the Canadian breweries between 1961 and 1986, replacing the old long neck beer bottle. The stubby was a very sturdy bottle and could be refilled numerous times. In 1983 Carling O'Keefe Breweries began bottling Miller in a US style private mould bottle and soon after the other breweries also switched over to their own private mould bottles. Most of these bottles were then discontinued after a few years because of the cost and replaced with a common long neck beer bottle, but the stubby was abandoned."
