Looks good LinkPic
From the front, it looks good. I will reserve final judgment after I see how bad the rest of the car looks. BMW cannot be trusted to have a good looking car from front to back anymore!

Looks pretty good, the photos look kind of compressed to me. Oh, and I just read that the next M3 will be a twin-turbo I6, and only in coupe and convertible.
^^^^^You can sort of see the back on the other dazzle camouflage photos of it. Looks good. I can parse through enough French to get around the website. I am glad they got rid of Bungle.
There seems to be something wrong with our bloody ships today, and something wrong with our bloody system as well.
Looks good, but the rear in person will be interesting.Lets hope it doesnt get the 5GT treatment in the rear...

It's weird... gonna reserve judgement til I see it in person/better pics lol overall I am not sure if I like it. If it weighs 400 lbs more like the 5 series, I won't like it AT ALL. It needs to be lighter, not heavier.
It's pretty ugly IMO.

Looks good in the front, but I don't like the high rear end, as on the 5-Series.
Oh gosh, it's got the genesis coupe's gaping maw of a lower front fascia!Hope they fill that with something before it goes into production...

I come from England and have had a TEFL certificate (grade A-), which I obtained from Koh Samui, a year ago. I have taught in 3 different schools (2 schools P1-P6, and a monk school M1-M3) on a voluntary basis in both the North and South of Thailand, for which i have letters of reference and photo's of me with the students and teachers . I am now looking for paid work in Thailand as I enjoyed teaching so much and would love to teach as a career. The problem is that I don't have a degree. Most of the positions I have seen, ask for a degree in any subject.
Please can you give me some advice on how i can get a job, and do you know of any agencies I can get in contact with, that will help me .
I look forward to hearing from you
Kind regards

Burger King USA's official Twitter account has been hacked this morning.
The Burger King logo has been changed to a McDonald's one and changed the account name to "McDonald's".
"We just got sold to McDonalds! Look for McDonalds in a hood near you," the hackers wrote to announce the prank about 6am NZ time.
In the past hour, some posts from the account have contained racial epithets, references to drug use and obscenities. The account has also tweeted: "if I catch you at a wendys, we're fightin!"
The account was later shut down.
The Burger King USA account has more than 89,400 followers.
Anonymous have claimed responsibility for the hack.
The group have hacked corporate and government agency websites, including New Zealand sites in response to the "Skynet" copyright law.
McDonald's tweeted this morning they were not involved in the prank.
"We empathize with our @BurgerKing counterparts. Rest assured, we had nothing to do with the hacking," they wrote.
Burger King Worldwide Inc, which is based in Miami, did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment.

Colorado Rush and University of Portland star Danica Evans has been named to the 2014 All W-League team for her outstanding season. One week after being named the winner of the Golden Boot with 13 goals, and the overall points leader for the league (29), Evans was named to the Western Conference team and more importantly the All W-League team.
Evans becomes the third Rush player to be named to the top team in the W-League joining Lindsey Horan (2011) and Sarah Wagenfuhr (2010). Evans was also named as one of the three finalists for the W-League player of the year award!
"Winning this award clearly speaks for itself but it especially represented my personal goal of taking the chance to try. I put being the league leader in my head on the ride home from Portland so being able to come full circle and see my hard work translate into such a fine result made the season a success," stated Evans.
"Danica has been one of the most dangerous forwards and efficient goal scorers at her age in the country for the last few years. She has previously been recognized as the leading scorer in the ECNL (the highest level of girls soccer in the U.S.) as a youth player. Now she has progressed to being one of the most effective goal scorers, regardless of age, in the country by leading all players in the W-League in scoring and points. This is the highest level of women's soccer in our country save the NWSL. Impressive. But for me, there is more to Danica. She brings unique elements to the women's game. Stylistically she reminds me a lot of Lindsey Horan. Perhaps that is enough said right there. I am both happy and proud that the league has seen fit to recognize her as one of the best 11 players in the country," said Erik Bushey, Head Coach of the Colorado Rush Women.
The Rush Women finished the 2014 season with a 6-3-3 record in the very competitive Western Conference. Evans, now a Sophomore at the University of Portland has played with the Rush women since her U16 year in the club.
"Playing with the Rush's women's league team has provided me with so many things!! Most importantly being a Rush W-League player means being a family. I love the atmosphere that has been created by the Rush for players like myself while rising from young stars into the women people are able to see today. It's not easy to sum up all the lengths the people around me have been through to help me achieve this fine accommodation," Evans commented. She continued, "If I had to it would be something like this: I'm absolutely thankful for all that has come of my individual success but there is no chance to reach this without the support of my amazing teammates, the great Erik Bushey of coarse, Jim Martin for providing us all the opportunity, and my loving family at home!!

Farm manager Chris Carlough sums it up succinctly:
"Our mission here is to enhance the relationship between horse and owner, to create an environment where people can enjoy their horses" . He continues, "They can ride horses inside the arena, or on the forty acres devoted to riders. They can picnic by the barn or pond. They can fish in the one acre pond loaded with blue gill and bass. Rising Glory aims to be a facility that the entire family can enjoy, whether they ride a lot, a little or not at all."

I have NOT failed. I have only found many many ways that do not work!
my cane sugar syrup recipe, besides the water and sugar is about a cup of cider vinegar per 5 gallon bucket and a sprinkle of electrolytes.
My patty recipe is about 6# mann lakes bee pro, 6# brewers yeast, 25#sugar, 1 quart cider vinegar,2- 3 quarts cold water, electrolytes with vitamins and some essential oils or pro health when I have them.
I have to say, the bees are not interested in syrup or patties with natural sources coming in, but some my queen cells so far are not quite the quality I had last year when they took up my protein patty mix. Thank goodness for the incubator. So easy to cull as soon as they hatch and not waste a mating nuc-then evaluate.
I am new and would like to know what the things that look like stacked doormats are.
What photo are you refering to? I'm not seeing anything that looks like that
By Their Fruits Ye Shall Know Them
What WBVC is asking about is your archery target directly behind your row of hives.
Ahhhh. Now I get you. Yes, that is an archery target made of old carpet strips. They glue and compress them, then band them. Stops any arrow and you can pull them out with two fingers. We also use cedar bales and bags filled with shrink wrap plastic for targets.
Notice the swarm trap on top the target?
and here I thought it was some fancy item for bee keeping
How does one tell if a Queen cell is good and for that matter if a "hatched" queen is not good and should be culled (I suspect = killed)?
I am far to new to try this sort of thing of now but am very interested in learning so I may be apply what I have learned as time goes on. The incubator and racks of queen cells in those cage looked a great way to manage queen rearing. As someone with limiting arthritis the nuc boxes on the fence looked very practical...and attractively appealing as well.
Thanks for taking the time to post the pics and explanations....much appreciated.
They need to be whoppers at birth for a start..no shrimps allowed. And I have had some culls this first few batches. Just not fed well enough. I want to see royal jelly packed into the top of the cell when I place them. You should see it right through the cell cup at the top.
No abundance of jelly, I don't even let it hatch.
Now a small capped cell is OK as long as there is royal jelly in it. I've gotten some whopper virgins out of dinky cells.
I'd rather have a small cell with royal jelly than a big cell that was dry on top.
You are very welcome. Ideas are always good to share. That's why Beesource is amazing.
Looks great!
I have a swarm queen I picked up a month ago that is very dark like the queen you have in that picture and that swarm has almost two deeps drawn out. She is an absolute laying machine. Before the builders even had a 8" x 6" leaf drawn in the upper deep she had already laid in it and moved back down!! I am going to graft off her on my next round.
I like your pictures!!

I knew that was an archery target before I read the post! Oops! I'm tipping my cards. I like excelsior bales for crossbow practice, but fletching glue for queen discs? That's a great idea. (sorry about off-topic)
Glad you are having so much success in such a beautiful environment. Are the frames in your "1/2 Nucs" oriented cross-wise like mating nucs, or long-wise like most beehives? Your bees might come up a bit faster if you used full, 5-frame deep nucleus colonies with more bees. I add 3 or 4 scoops (32 oz drink cups) and 3 frames for open mating, and add 2 more frames right after the queen's laying pattern proves out good. They really take off after they get to 5 frames. They are in a 10-frame box in less than a month if the sage blooms well (last year they had to wait for buckwheat, as the sage didn't happen). The best colonies fill their second box during sumac bloom 6 weeks later, if all goes well.
Beeghost - make a few extra grafts off her for me I suspect she came from the nuclear lab?
I have a question about the 1/2 length frames in the divided deep nucs. Is that set up used solely for the purpose of creating queens or what? If the frames don't fit into a regular sized deep box how does one transition the nuc to a regular deep?
I am certain I have just highlighted my lack of knowledge but asking is how I will learn.
Thank you everyone for your ongoing patience and explanations.
Having never be associated with any form of archery that is alos a foreign world to me
5-frame nucleus colonies ("nucs") are the traditional unit for working small, "increaser colonies" into full-strength, 10-frame colonies. They work pretty good like that.
Half- and 1/3- size nucs (usually called "mini-mating nucs" or "Baby nucs") are usually for mating a virgin queen with about 1,500 bees to care and provide for her - it is just a trick that queen breeders use to make LOTS of queens without a lot of bees and honeycomb. The mini- and baby nucs often have mini feeding frames for sugar water in them, too. It usually works, but there can be some mischief, like swarming, doubling up, absconding, freezing to death in late cold fronts, other mishaps.
Virgin queens are usually put in them as sealed queen cells, before they have hatched. They hatch in a few days, grow up for about a week, then go out on their orienting and mating flights (some go more than once), come home for 2 or 3 days, then begin to lay eggs. Breeders leave them in these mini-mating nucs or baby nucs for about 2 to 3 weeks, then check their egg-laying pattern to see if it is profuse and solid. They are then either sold with package bees, given to 5-frame nucleus colonies to survive over winter and sell the next spring, used for re-queening, or kept to populate new colonies for their own purposes.
Of course, there are a LOT of variations on these basic guidelines, this is just a "middle-of-the-road" way of doing it. I doubt any two beekeepers do it alike, let alone queen breeders! My own preference is to cut vertical slots in my 10-frame boxes and add 1/4" hive partitions to make three 3-frame compartments for open-mating. This seems to work out pretty well - I get fair numbers of queens, can use any frame that serves the purpose, and I can add way more than 1,500 bees (a 32 oz drink cup of bees) -- I use 3 or 4 such "scoops", and this allows me to leave them in there for up to a month. They also build up quicker, and are ready to go to 5 frame nuc arrangement sooner than mini nucs do.
(BIG FAT HINT- for your own uses, try the over-wintered nucleus approach - it usually builds up in population MUCH better than package bees the next year!) The baby nucs would take all year to build up if left by themselves (and they still might not even make it through winter)- it is better to add some frames of brood and enough bees to cover the frames - no extra queens, please - and put them into a 4-frame nuc, a 5-frame nuc, or even an 8-frame box and let them increase through the rest of the spring/summer/early fall. Box size-to-bee population is an issue - the bees need to keep a certain amount of volume warm by shivering, and excess volume costs them more honey.
Good idea to ask - I hope this helps. Oh, and archery is very complicated - you put the arrrow point in front, the nock goes on the string, you pull the string back, then you let it go at someone you don't like...hee hee hee maybe you should ask Lauri.

"three 3-frame compartments for open-mating"
If you have a box physically divided into 3 compartments each with an opening, have scooped in random bees and they have a queen...do they go out and come back to the opening of their little condo section? Do they not fly back to their original free standing home hive leaving the nuc condo a bit lean on bees?
Once the queen is sold and gone do you then take the condo frames and mix them with larger hive? Again how do you keep the bees with hive you have chosen for them?
I do not have a 3km space to work with so can't move them far away and back again.
What I normally do is to put 2 dividers into the medium hive to separate it into 3 sections. Each
section has 2-3 frame of bees. If you keep the capped broods and young nurse bees either
brush them in or from the same hive then they will not drift back to the original hive. I don't even
move the hive box at all. The same location is fine. After that it is requeen time and waiting for
her mating flight.

I'll open it before the game.
Wellllll... *tapping foot*
OK...has a game plan ever been more obvious?

As erratic as Brooks can be, he is still dangerous..and our secondary is putrid...
So...lemme guess...we try to control the clock with Julius...

I dont get the game today guys I get the Colts game and the Bears so let the replys come fast and furious today. I will keep my eye on Hutch.
Is that fog on the field or does one of the FOX cameras have cheesecloth in front of it?
1st play on offense pass to witten lol who predicted that?
ah jeez cundiff
Cundiff....................You &(*&*(&(_*_(*==
There goes 3pts we won't get back
we gotta get a lead on this team early.that's not good
yeah remind how BP is gaining confidence in Cundiff he will always make you hold your breath
I heard a stat like NO has never scored first maybe all season or maybe a certain number of games I hope the Cowboys do not help them break that streak.
atta boy newman!!
3 n out for the saints cowboys ball at least we get aother shot.
3 & out.........................Good play Newman
redzone again lets see if cowboys can convert this time
We should be up by 14 right now......I hope it doesn't come back and bite us in the ***.
Jones has more yards rushing than VT has throwing at this point. It will be interesting to see if JJ gets more at the end of the game.
Redzone twice only 3pts...................ugh!!!!!!!!
we need another 3 and out and start wearing their defense out with the run.

Sacramento Museum and History Division
Collection Register
Blue Diamond Growers Collection
Visit the Center for Sacramento History Website
The business papers and photographs of Blue Diamond Growers (previously California Almond Growers Exchange), California's major almond grower and marketing cooperative from 1910- present, were given to the City of Sacramento's Museum and History Division by vote of the Blue Diamond board of directors. The major portion of the collection was received in January 1981. The photographs were separated from the archival materials and are now in the photograph archives of the Sacramento Museum and History Division (SMHD). All records and photographs are accessible to the researcher with the exception of the Board of Director's Minutes, 1935-1949, and Pool Closings 1950-1953, which are sealed by request of the donor.
The archival collection consists of a variety of materials, including journals, correspondence, office papers, advertising and promotional materials, newsletters published by Blue Diamond Growers (or historically CAGE), newspaper clippings from other sources, and a selection of sales and "pool" ledgers. Also included are many published reports of hearings and briefs of the United States Senate and the House of Representatives on legislation for agricultural and foreign import tariff matters. The earliest dated item is an 1897 journal of a predecessor organization, the DavisVille Almond Growers Association. The most current documents are the Almond Facts publication, which is received every two months, and the Annual Report, an on-going acquisition.
Blue Diamond Growers (BDG) was organized in May 1910 as a wholly grower-owned processing and marketing outlet for the grower-members. Direction of the organization is set by a board of directors, which is elected by the general membership. The board, in turn, appoints the president, formerly called the general manager, who oversees all operations of the co-operative.
The main office of BDG is located at 1802 C Street, Sacramento, California.
Past Presidents/CEO's of BDG are:
- J. P. Dargitz (1910-1912)
- T.C. Tucker (1913 - 1936)
- D.R. Bailey Sr. (1936-1960)
- W. Stalker (1960-1975)
- Title Changed to President - 1965
- R. Baccigaluppi (1975-1991)
- W. Payne (1992-2001)
- D. Youngdahl (2001- 2010)
- M. Jansen (2010- Present)
Presidents and Chairman of the Board (full list available in The Almond People book)
- B.F. Walton (1910-1913)
- H.C. McMahon (1938-1943)
- Title Changed from President to Chairman - 1968
- Howard Isom (1992-2006)
- Clinton Shick (2006-2014)
- Dan Cummings (2014- Present)
Collection Register: For the Researcher
Especially useful for an overview of all aspects of BDG are the Board of Director's Minutes (1910-1935), the Annual Report, 1911-Present, and the publication of Almond Facts (1922-Present). Researchers interested in agribusiness might profit from reviewing: Finance and Accounting series (especially the selected Ledgers, 1910-1967), Plant Manager Series (Audit Reports, Pool Closings and Plants Operations), Materials from Member Relations, Legal files (1932-1960).
Both domestic and foreign marketing and market expansion could by analyzed from several aspects: for instance, the time frame necessary to build what was a specialty product into an acceptable grocery store item, or the role of governmental regulation in marketing. See the following series: Marketing, Foreign; Crop and Sales Reports, Commodities Promotion, and Annual Reports.
For materials on government regulations and tariffs, consult the following series: Grower's Tariff League, Minutes, Tariff Readjustments 1929, Marketing, Domestic Orders, Studies, and Legislation 1920-1978, Legal Files 1922-1970
In 2000, BDG published a book called The Almond People, which describes the complete history of the cooperative from 1910-2000. Blue Diamond will provide an update of its history since 2000 in its Centennial Year of 2010. Thereafter, its history will be documented on this Web site. Blue Diamond will also consider an additional donation of its historical files at the end of 2010.
The book documents how BDG has led the California almond growing and marketing fraternity in opening markets, developing new products, and overcoming trade barriers around the world. Almost single-handedly it created an industry out of a loose collection of growers and shippers — an industry that swept from being a minor player in the world market to its current status as global leader in growing, processing and marketing almonds. The book also tracks the history of the world while the almond history was evolving and documents both with photos linked to the content itself.
All archival materials of the BDG collection have been processed according to the methods set forth in the Sacramento Museum and History Division Archival Manual. The records are analyzed and arranged according to their creator department or division, placed in acid-free folders and containers, and stores on steel shelving. A description of each kind of record was complied, typed on a 3" x 5" cards, and added to the card catalog. Where needed, container lists and inventories of contents were made to facilitate record retrieval.
The BDG collection consists of the following major series:
- Advertising and Sales Promotion, 17 Hollinger boxes, 1933-78
- Board of Directors, 49 Hollinger boxes, 1897-1980
- Finance and Accounting, 1 Hollinger box, 24 volumes, 1910-67
- Grower's Tariff League, 1 Hollinger box, 1923-34
- Marketing, domestic and Foreign, 15 Hollinger boxes, 1920-74
- Member Relations, 4 Hollinger boxes, 1914-present
- Personnel Department, 1 Hollinger box, 1969-80
- Plant Manager, 14 Hollinger boxes, 1919-69
- Statistics Department, 8 Hollinger boxes, 1938-53
In all, there are approximately 56 linear feet of archival materials.
Photograph Collection
The Blue Diamond Growers photograph collection originally consisted of some 10,000 photographs, of which approximately 2,500 were duplicate copies. These duplicates were de-accessioned and returned to CAGE (BDG) in acid-free folder and boxes. The remainders were stamped using acid-free ink with the SMHD label. They were given accession numbers, put in Mylar sleeves, and stored in the photograph archives in steel filing cabinets. These photographs were catalogued starting February 2, 1981 to present. Arranged according to provenance, they do not follow a comprehensive order. However, the majority of the collection had been stored by the donor according to subject. Therefore, groups of several hundred consecutively accessioned photographs are filed under such titles as "Bins," "Growers Meetings," "Orchard Scenes," "Designs" and "Export-Japan."
Though the bulk of this collection is comprised of photographs taken since 1950, the earliest images were made in the period around 1910. The collection consists of 5" x 7" and 8" x 10" black and white prints. Yet, it also includes smaller black and white photographs, some dozen over-sized prints, and approximately 700 images in the following formats: 35 mm, 2 ¼", and miscellaneous sized safety and nitrate negatives.
The collection contains several thousand marketing and promotional photographs of almonds, almonds products, and displays of almond products. These photographs would probably be most useful to the specialized researcher. Researchers interested in BDG corporate history should consider the numerous photographs of BDG executives, Board of Directors meetings, and growers meetings. Those interested in the industrial aspect of BDG's history might examine a variety of interior views of BDG plants. These show employees (some in uniform), machinery, and other scenes of almond processing. There are also photographs of warehouse interiors and exteriors, as well as other types of BDG buildings. The other major body of photographs would appeal to researchers of BDG history and to those people requesting beautiful pastoral scenes. These include close-ups and panoramas of almond orchards in various stages of growth and cultivation.

text: So, traded some truck parts for a couple of bikes. Got this Sears Spyder out of the deal... I also got a Rage Empire bike with decent Kenda Flame tires. The flames were a bit big for the bike, so, I robbed the triple tree fork and used some coaster brake arms to move the rear tire back and up a bit... ...only one bolt in there for now, but we're just mocking this up. Swapped the fork and put the apes on the new fork. Not bad for an hour of work if I do say so myself! (glad I soaked it down with penetrating oil when I got it home!)

Redmond man cited after Crook County crash
Taken to hospital, accused of DUII, reckless driving
PRINEVILLE, Ore. - A 27-year-old Redmond man crashed his pickup truck along North McKay Creek Road north of Prineville Saturday evening and was taken to the hospital, where he was cited on DUII and reckless driving charges, Crook County sheriff's deputies said.
Deputies and Crook County Fire and Rescue paramedics were dispatched around 6:45 p.m. to the reported single-vehicle crash on North McKay Creek Road near milepost 11.5, said sheriff's Sgt. Travis Jurgens.
Deputies arrived to find a white 1978 Chevy pickup just off the south side of the road, facing north, and the driver, Tristan Charge, lying on the ground beside it, Jurgens said.
An investigation found that Charge had left a campsite in the McKay Creek area and was heading south toward Prineville when he failed to negotiate a corner, the sergeant said.
Charge lost control of the pickup, which crossed over the oncoming lane and left the south side of the road, where it struck two Ponderosa pine trees, damaged a fence and came to rest just off the road.
The driver was able to get out of the pickup on his own, and witnesses had him lay down for his own safety, Jurgens said, adding that it's not known if he was wearing his seat belt.
Charge was taken by ambulance to Pioneer Memorial Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, according to the officer.

Discussion in 'February 2014' started by roscoe36, Oct 21, 2013.
That's how Singler responds to every Leecap.
Yeah don't read the rest. Avoid any serious criticism of your position, and come at other people on a personal level yourself, repeatedly on this forum. You're entitled to your opinion, but this stuff where you get really base coming at people for disagreeing with your opinion, is passive aggressive and totally not cool. You don't like Singler, fine. You want to post about how much you don't like Singler EVERY DAY OF THIS SEASON, fine. But don't come at people personally. We're all better than that.
Unless I see an apology in the first line, do not bother typing further, because I am not reading it. Note, I do not attack anyone, ever. I have my opinions. No, I do not think it is any kind of attack on anyone to ask if they actually watched the game. What I am mostly interested in is other people's opinions about the game, if they also watched them. If you did not watch the game, I am very little interested on your theories about what might have happened.
Whoa! S just got real up in here.
When people watch the game, you take it to the next level where they didn't watch it enough times or slowly enough. Next you'll have a pixel requirement. I'm obviously guilty of perpetuating this fringe debate. It's more fun to argue the same thing over and over than to just give up and watch the team's slow decline.
Since your opinion is not the same as mine, it is clear that tou did not watch the game. I do not respect the opinions of someone who didn't watch the game. Nothing personal about that line of reasoning.
How about this for a new topic (that actually requires film study)... What has Loyer changed? I saw some commentary already on other sites regarding lower turnovers, and more use of Monroe from the elbow as a passer. More bynum and jj obviously.
You have been perfectly civil about it. You even tried to rewatch some film. But you did not follow up and relook at the stuff we disagreed on. I am not trying to argue with you. Just compare notes. If you don't see what I see, fine. We did see a lot of stuff the same way. Let me know if you want to continue studying film cooperatively like that. Not to argue, but to have fun discussing the plays, and possibly learning from that.
I enjoy it and would be glad to, but my time is too sporadic. I have bursts of free time and then week long crunches where I only watch games on dvr delay and post from my mobile (using the new and improved tapatalk 2). Any game where the score is unintentionally revealed to me and we get dominated, I tend to not get around to watching. It's surprising difficult avoiding all spoilers. Let's just call a truce and agree that singler is efficient because he's selective. On defense, let's blame bynum, even if he's on the bench. I can live with that.
At first I saw some changes. This last game though he reverted back to the very same patterns prior to Bynum's demotion, other than JJ getting some minutes. In all, I do see signs of better adjustments at halftime, but no progress at all in solving the roster / who plays thing. The worst, while praising Pope's speed and D, he has left him out of 2 of the last 3 games except for a couple of minutes here and there. As much as I disliked Cheeks, I did like that he was starting Pope. Kind of reminds me of Carlisle's days. Lots of adjustments on strategy on a play by play basis, but no overall good use of the roster. Carlisle got 50 games for us with a hodge podge roster the first year. Great. But then we added Rip Hamilton, Memo, Prince, and Billups, but still only won 50. In Dallas, he won it all with a veteran roster. But now, what do you see. All vets on the floor for Dallas. Probably will not make the playoffs, and they have no future.
But they would have an excellent FG %
They gotta move to San Antonio to win.
You attack Singler and Loyer/Cheeks/Frank, etc all the time. And worst thing is you don't do it by voicing your opinion but by using generalisations, deletions and distortion. They are based on watching games and not fact, stats or anything that is reliable. Generalization is where the speaker takes a particular experience applies it generically to a multitude of other situations (most part of your Leecaps are based on this) Deletion is where details are deleted as the speaker chooses what to focus on (your bias towards Singler, neglecting stats/facts that prove otherwise then your opinion) Distortion is when the speaker distorts something to mean something it was not intended to mean (your responses to some posts) Furthermore, the fact that you watch games doens't autmatically mean you understand basketball. You need more (facts, stats, etc) then that. I also think it's very arrogant to think you have a higher understanding of (Pistons) basketball then the ppl who spend time with the players during practise and games. To my knowledge they watch more videofootage on a whole different level then you do. Looking at the ways you respond to posts i bet that if i start watching more games, for more hours in more detail then you, you probably would come up with something that implies i am doing it wrong and you are still right. I am just amazed that you never seem to come to the conclusion that there is a possible chance you might be wrong. I doubt you will respond to this post because you think it's a personal attack. To clear that up, to me it's not because i am not criticising who you are ( i cant cause i dont really know you). I am criticising the things you base your opinion on and the way you communicate.
I see no personal attack. But you are wrong in my opinion, to call my reports on the game attacks. I say what I think / feel / about the Pistons game. Its my opinion. Matter of fact, others often have my same opinion, while others have different ones. I enjoy reading all people's opinions who watched the game. If you note, I take my time to like anyone's post who took the time to give a bit of a report on what they saw. Since my opinions are posted here, anyone can comment on them. Anybody who plays in the NBA knows that there are fans who have opinions on them. Bad and good. In this forum, not me, but a whole lot of other people, have continually hated on Stuckey's game. I could go on and name dozens of players who have had negative reviews here. And some have been down right ridiculed continuously for years in a case or two. I would not focus so much on what I say about Singler. Sure, I think he does not belong in the NBA, and the Pistons would be better off giving his minutes to pretty much any other player in the league. Pretty much goes for Bynum too, and I do not see really why we are keeping Datome, JJ, CV on the roster either. And pretty much when I see these players play, they are pretty much the same players they were the last game. So my opinion probably will not change, and my game reports will reflect it. From me, 82 games, so 82 game reports. I do try to be a bit entertaining when I write them, but for the most part I try to help describe the game at hand and give people why we lost if we lost it. Maybe you think that is repetitive. I guess you could tell the league to play less games so I would have less games to report on.
3 minutes? No, I thought I was clear, but obviously not; The Pistons are winning less than half of their games, and are one of the worst defensive teams in the league by a bunch of measures. We don't defend the 3 pt line, we give up a high FG%, we foul. We are bad at defense, regardless of whether Singler is out there or not - stats say we are better by I'm going to brush that off for now. It is an impossible argument to pinpoint Singler as the crux of our problems. If you want to make the argument that he is the straw that broke the camels back, I suppose I -and many others - could accept that line of thought. He does get lost on screens, he does get beat off the bounce by many players. He is quite mercurial. I accept all of these things. But to say that he is the reason we lose, especially when you say things along the lines of 'coach just had to play Singler all the minutes' when he is averaging less minutes than last year (something not brought up by your repeated 'obsession with playing Singler' approach), and is clearly the best option in many ways at SF, is simply untenable and borders on farcical at times.
Gee, now if you added in how much Bynum hurts us out there, we would have tons of agreement. Yes, Singler gets lost on picks. But that is being kind. Singler can't even keep up with the player to begin with; picks, even one, always leave him way behind the play. Now, as for people disagreeing with me, and me saying they did not watch the game, or insinuating that they might not have watched the game. Remember, the subject was was Iggy being guarded by Singler. I'd say for this game, if anyone imagined that Singler guarded Iggy at all most likely did not watch the game. Singler guarded the same player pretty much the entire game, Thompson, not Iggy. Occasionally, very occasionally, Singler guarded a small forward for just one play here and there, and it was not pretty as Singler can not at all guard any of the GS small forwards. People who did guard Iggy by the way included Smith and Stuckey. Stuckey, when playing shooting guard while Singler is playing small forward, takes on the small forward role on the defensive end. And oh, another PS, Singler can't guard Thompson one bit either. It hurt us pretty bad in this one, having Singler in the game. And after watching the game yet again just now, my opinion is more firm on that point than ever, for this game.
Besides being near the top of the league in distance covered and average speed on the court, Singler also tested unusually fast at the combine... ahead of Smith in the sprint and more agile in the lane than Stuckey. He is no way a slow player, especially for his height. But... he is 6'8" and NBA shooting guards are lightning fast. Combine that with all of the screens that get set for SGs and it's a tall task for him. I agree that Pope or Stuckey would be better suited for the role on defense. Meanwhile, Josh Smith is shooting .236 from 3-point land and has attempted 35 more of them than KS. Kyle is shooting .511 as a starter this year from deep. Converts more than twice as often. He is at least helping to spread the floor for our 3 bigs and it's resulting in the most proficient offense in the East since he began starting. While it would be nice to have Pope's defense on the court, we at least need one dead eye shooter out there. With our pre Singler starting lineup, Jennings was the only real 3-point threat.
So where did Singler finish in strength, and ups? I contend that in the GS game, Singler could in no way compete with the small forwards, and in no way keep up with the guards. Nowhere to hide him on defense. A lot of us have had the same discussion on CV. Even at his best offensively, and some nights that offense was extremely good, he still hurt us because his defense was that bad. If you can't help on D, I really do not want to see you playing on the Pistons. I am a fan of defense. There are cases where the offense is so good, helping someone on D does make sense. The Pistons have had two such cases. Dantley, and Corliss Williamson. Dantley was a bit undersized to be an NBA small forward, but he could score like a fiend, and better yet, had a knack for drawing fouls that was simply unreal. Absolutely worth helping the guy on defense. With Corliss, his strength meant that he could at least help inside. So we just told him to stay inside, and let everybody else do the rotating out on the perimeter. It was way, way worth it, as Corliss turned around and absolutely abused the opposing small forward. So far, Singler is not that kind of exceptional offensive player worth helping out on defense on pretty much an every play basis.
The goal posts were just ripped out and replanted in the 10th rows.
If you're looking for speed, strength, and hops, it doesn't get much better than Will Bynum. Besides being ripped, he led his combine in speed and max vertical (over 40").

Create GPX (gps files) from ArcGIS Shapefiles or GoogleEarth KML files
For some, DNR garmin (http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/mis/gis/tools/arcview/extensions/DNRGarmin/DNRGarmin.html) may be enough for converting shapefiles to gpx files but this program may not always work - especially for large files. I have found it easiest to convert ArcGIS shapefiles to KML and then to GPX files.
Shapefile to KML
Depending on the content of your shapefile, there are two different options for creating a KML.
1) Open-source Shp2kml, available at: http://www.zonums.com/shp2kml.html . This would be my first choice. The GUI is very straightforward and gives you quite a few options for customizing your KML, such as: the color scheme, roll-over effect, and which attributes are displayed. NOTE: The list of acceptable Datums is kind of short. Found it easiest to just re-project shapefiles to WGS84. Also, found that this tool would not always work for shapefiles with especially long text attributes and/or multi-part polygons. (This is discussed in more detail in a past blog called Shapefile to Google Earth kml - Customize Symbol Properties and Labeling (NO PROGRAMMING REQUIRED!).
2) Create a layer file of your shapefile and use the 'Layer to KML' tool in ArcGIS. You have less authority over the output with this method. Limited customization of color scheme can be done in Google Earth (unless you would like to program some fancy customizations). NOTE: Actually saves the file as a KMZ; resave the KMZ as a KML for conversion to GPX in GoogleEarth. If you are using this options, delete all of the attribute fields that you do not want to show up in Google Earth – this information pops up when the feature is clicked.
KML to GPX
Lots of options.
1) Open-source KML2GPX, available at: http://groups.google.com/group/kml-support-getting-started/msg/ec5e2ae637ed4bfc
3) Open-source GPSbabel, available at: http://www.gpsbabel.org/
4) Built-in tool on gpsies.com, available at: http://www.gpsies.com/convert.do
I know that DNR garmin and the tool on gpsies.com are not good for very large datasets.

January 15, 2013 — Kim Campbell may have said it best twenty years ago, when she commented on her status as Canada's first—and, to date, only—female Prime Minister.
"I'd be prouder still to say I was Canada's tenth woman Prime Minister."
It's great to celebrate the first woman to become Prime Minister, or join a corporate board, or become CEO of a major company, but equality isn't about the trailblazing women who struggle to reach the top first. It's about encouraging many women to reach their full potential and maximize their contributions in the workplace.
And the true value of incorporating women's perspective in political or business leadership can't be achieved when only one woman's voice is being heard. That value is achieved only when a critical mass of women is in position to lead and influence corporate culture and corporate decision-making. Research demonstrates that having more women at the top can benefit a company's bottom line. And women tend to "send the elevator back down" for other women once they've reached the top.
Women serve as Premier in four provinces and one territory, but it's unlikely that Canada will see another woman Prime Minister in the near future. And women continue to be, at best, a minority, and, at worst, invisible in corporate Canada's senior ranks. But there are signs of a growing awareness that women in senior management and on corporate boards can create value that exceeds the individual.
We see this in the growing number of FP500 companies signing the Catalyst Accord and making the commitment to increase the number of women on their boards. We see it in the number of CEOs who attend and participate in Catalyst events, including The Catalyst Canada Honours.
These leaders recognize that their competitive position, and Canada's global economic standing, depends upon the most effective deployment of talent, and on each individual being able to work up to his or her potential.
As Kim Campbell once noted, ". . . a lot of men . . . have more in their personalities than masculine stereotypes allow for. So when you get more women in an institution, the men can be more of the things that they are."
And that's what works best for men, women, and business. Is Canada ready for this kind of change?

So driving home from work yesterday a Pontiac Sunfire (lol) pulled up beside me and wanted to go. I don't have to tell you the result (obviously) but I could not believe the nerve of the guy. I didn't get a good look at him since his ride was pimped out with full tint, but based on the rate he was shrinking in my rear view mirror I still almost felt sorry for him.
I've only had my car for about a month, and am new to owning a WRX, but I feel hunted in that car. Seems like everybody is out to prove something to me now. I don't mind, it's fun

Prosecution, defense offer different views of death
JONESBOROUGH, Tenn. - Terri Larkin died November 18, 2003. Prosecutors say her husband Dale Larkin killed her. Assistant District Attorney Dennis Brooks said, "there are injuries to the front side of this woman, to the right side of this woman, to the left side of this woman, every where you look there's an injury."
Dale Larkin's defense team tells a different story. "As far as him being in that house with the doors locked others who saw it know better," said attorney Mark Slagle.
Terri Larkin's daughter from a previous marriage, Tia Gentry, was 11 the day she got off the school bus and found her mother's body in the bathtub.
"I talked to her, when she didn't respond, I shook her she didn't move," Tia Gentry testified.
The official cause of death is asphyxiation. The jury will hear several medical experts trying to explain how Terri Larkin received over 20 bruises and several broken bones. "Your common sense will come into play with the injuries Terri Larkin received at or near the time of her death," said Dennis Brooks.
Dale Larkin told police he was at home and the two had been spending time together, but says he was in the garage when his step-daughter found her mother.
"The bruises are from being pulled from the tub and thrown on the floor when CPR began," according to Slagle.
The injuries were found during a second autopsy several years after her death. The defense is trying to discredit the doctor who found the injuries because she once testified for the defense in a civil case.
"She was the expert for Dale Larkin, now she is the state's witness here, same person...the money changes hands again so she can come here and testify in a high profile case," said Slagle.
Prosecutors and defense attorneys agree on one thing, this trial will not be short. They expect it will last the rest of this week and possibly into the first of next week.
Prosecutors say Dale Larkin collected more than $600,000 in life insurance after his wife's death. The settlement of a civil case, lodged by Terri Larkin's ex-husband, placed a portion of that money in a trust for Terri Larkin's daughter.

Radical: Fighting to Put Students First (Hardcover)
The United States is known as a world leader in innovation, boasting brilliant thinkers and trendsetting companies, but that status is at grave risk. American children are well outside the top-ten international student rankings in reading, science, and math; those rankings not to mention the nation's position of leadership on everything from the economy to the military to issues of moral authority will continue to plummet unless we take dramatic action. Michelle Rhee, a driving force behind American education reform, is ready to make a change.
In Radical, this fearless and pioneering advocate draws on her own life story and delivers her plan for better American schools. Rhee's goal is to ensure that laws, leaders, and policies are making students not adults our top priority, and she outlines concrete steps that will put us on a dramatically different course. Informing her critique are her extraordinary experiences in education: her years of teaching in inner-city Baltimore; her turbulent tenure as chancellor of the Washington, D.C., public schools; and her current role as an education activist. Rhee draws on dozens of compelling examples from schools she's worked in and studied; from students who've left behind unspeakable home lives and thrived in the classroom; from teachers whose groundbreaking methods have produced unprecedented leaps in student achievement. The book chronicles Rhee's awakening to the potential of every child blessed with a great teacher, her rage at realizing that adults with special interests are blocking badly needed change, and her recognition that it will take a grassroots movement to break through the barriers to outstanding public schools.
An incisive and intensely personal call to arms, Michelle Rhee's Radical is required reading for anyone who seeks a guide not only to the improvement of our schools but also to a brighter future for America's children.
Praise For…
"Michelle Rhee is famous as a hard-charging champion of education reform, but this charming and engrossing memoir is full of surprises as we learn that Rhee is also a strong Democrat and a thoughtful -- even contrite -- activist working every day to help kids learn."
-Jonathan Alter
"Throughout her career, Michelle Rhee has fought for every student to receive a quality education. In Radical, Rhee describes her experiences in the trenches, her challenges and her successes, but what she has learned through it all is that we must always put our students first."
-Condoleezza Rice
"Michelle Rhee is a national treasure. . . . As told in this important book, her fight against this country's calcified education bureaucracy holds lessons for us all."
-Geoffrey Canada
"Radical: Fighting to Put Students First is one of the most important and compelling books I have read. Michelle Rhee's account of her continuing struggles to achieve her vision for American public education is riveting. This engaging and well-written book is a must-read."
-William Julius Wilson
"Radical is much more than a diagnosis of our failing schools. It is Michelle Rhee's personal odyssey, powered by her conviction that the survival of the American Dream of tomorrow depends on how we educate our children today. Her determination comes through on every page."
-Arianna Huffington

Ashley Benson's Style Transformation
In 2006, Lily Collins was just a regular teenager starting to develop her own personal style! She was already embracing her bold brows at Fashion Week, and her simple black dress was a sign of chicer fashion moments to come!
Lily attended the "Hollywood Bag Ladies" Lupus Luncheon wearing another not-quite-age-appropriate outfit. The white button down and big earrings are really cute, but the pumps that perfectly match the pleated knee-length skirt don't scream "fashion model" as much as they do "grandma."

I like family gay, clevland show, american dad is the funniest. Rodgers mad funny.
One person that I think is hilarious regardless of what they're saying is Vince Vaughan. That guy could talk about calculus equations and I'd still laugh my ### off just because of the way he talks.
I think I'm funny. Anybody agree? No? Ok.

Talk about turning lemons into lemonade. Disney Channel's newest original movie, Lemonade Mouth, follows fellow students Stella, Olivia, Wen, Mo and Charlie as they navigate through the challenges of high school and home life. When all five are thrown in detention, it seems like their problems are just getting worse. Not so, as it turns out. Detention is actually the best thing to have happened to them!
Why? For starters, they realize they have something in common: a love of making music. With encouragement from their music teacher Miss Reznick, the quintet soon form a band and sign up for the Rising Star talent competition. The winner of the singing contest automatically gets a record deal.
But the ragtag group will have to battle the most popular rock band in school, Mudslide Crush, for the Rising Star title. Can this band of misfits win over the audience and take the top prize? Find out when Lemonade Mouth, based on the popular book by Mark Peter Hughes, premieres tonight.
Behind the Music
Recently, TFK sat down with all five cast members in New York City to chat about the making of the movie. Disney Channel fans will recognize many faces in Lemonade Mouth. It stars Good Luck Charlie's Bridgit Mendler as reserved lead singer Olivia; Wizards of Waverly Place's Hayley Kiyoko as fierce guitarist Stella; and Zeke & Luther's Adam Hicks as laid-back keyboardist Wen.
The movie also introduces viewers to a few new faces. British actress Naomi Scott, of Disney Channel UK's Life Bites, stars as sheltered bass guitarist Mo; and Disney Channel newcomer Blake Michaels plays shy drummer Charlie.
Like their characters, the actors share a passion for music. In fact, Hicks cowrote three songs on the movie's soundtrack: "Breakthrough," "High Wire" (a bonus track) and "Determinate." The latter features a speedy rap written and performed by Hicks onscreen. People are shocked when they see him rap for the first time, he tells TFK. "I have red hair and freckles," Hicks says. "It's the polar opposite of what you'd expect. I love that element of surprise."
Banding Together
As the unlikely group becomes closer friends and bandmates in the movie, they also learn the value of sticking up for each other and for what's right. It's a message that definitely shines through in much of the music. "'More than a Band' was one of my favorites," says Michaels. "It's about embracing your friends, and how, if you stand up for them, they'll stand up for you."
As for Kiyoko, "Somebody" is the song that speaks to her. The song is about taking hold of your own future and destiny. "It just has a great message and a great melody," Kiyoko says. "That's the song I listen to when I'm on the airplane. I'm sitting there silently, listening to our own music!"
As for the possibility of going on a Lemonade Mouth tour, the cast is all for it. "This was the first time I've ever performed in front of an audience like this," Mendler says, of filming the performance scenes. "Doing all those moves up on stage was a blast. I'm hooked on it now."
Of course, Disney's decision to take the cast of Lemonade Mouth on the road all depends on how well the movie does with audiences tonight. "You guys need to get on it! Sign a petition!" Scott says, with a laugh. "No, I'm joking. But a tour would be fun. It would be awesome."

Hi my name is Jamie and I am addicted to Pintrest. I have to limit my time majorly! I have 89 different boards and I actually have used, done, or made alot of the things I have pinned. Its great for homeschool and kids craft besides inspiration on alot of different projects.
I received my very pretty mug rug today from judee. I will post pictures either tonight or tomorrow. Thank you so much judee. I will be using my mug rug daily. It has little lady bugs on it, and such pretty spring colors. She also included a nice card with a beautiful picture on the front. A great swap partner.
"Sometimes it's OK if the only thing you did today was breathe."
Good friends are right there with you.
Wow, everyone is mailing out so early!!! I haven't even started mine since the deadline is June 7th. I guess I better get started so my partner doesn't think I've forgotten or got lost. LOL
I'm glad I have extra time my baby (sewing machine) is at the doctors needs some testing done.

Here is my lovely mug rug from Richardswife. Many thanks.
mugrugs! i knew i forgot to make something!! lol. ladies, this is May. mr's are on the schedule for june, so i won't start culling ideas for at least a week! 'good for you' going out to all you earlybirds! and good for me, i have more time!
The only bad days are the ones you don't get.
I will attach the most touching story which I just received. I hope my partner doesnt mind!
'And greetings from Texas.
Here is your mug rug, made with you in mind. Of course I patterned it after several things that I saw when visiting Sault St. Marie Ontario, ( which I know is not the area in which you live). I hope you like it as I had a lot of fun making it.
The maple leaf block represents the fall foliage that was just beginning turn colors while we were there.
The bear claw block represents the bear prints I saw while stopped at a national park as we, rode the Algoma RR into the forest.
And of course the flying geese blocks represent the beautiful geese that I saw in Sault St. Marie. And we had a pair spend a few days here at my apt. complex a few weeks ago. I suppose they wanted a rest and our little pound looked good for them before moving on along home.
The light blue in the geese pattern represents the clear waters in the streams, rivers, and waterfalls, we saw while riding the train.
And lastly the red represents the red maple leaf in your flag.

Opinion is one thing....having proof is entirely different...and so far no proof has been presented. Until that time start your dribble by "in my opinion".


text: The was a flower show/sale at our local cooperative extension and our bee club had a booth with honey, charts and an observation hive (fake but none the less). My mentor tells me that goldenrod honey in light. I thought the opposite from my experience from the state fair. He says goldenrod is light but knot weed (bamboo) is dark and they bloom at the same time. It doesn't take a lot of bamboo nectar to discolor golden rod so dark goldenrod has bamboo in it. If it it dark he sells it as bamboo.

Love the grill! Not too sure about the high body rake leading to a "Ford Butt" though. Looks like it would be the 5 door for me in that case.

Neons always had that high butt though too, this would work as a next generation Neon.Now just give it a Pentastar. Problem?

Like the grill as well but the article states that the matte paint was touched up to give a cleaner look (you can tell the difference between the front and the sides). Not sure if that means it will look like that or if they changed any appearances (such as those piano black fog lamp houses).
Anybody else think it looks like a Fiesta with a Dodge grill?

front might be ok, rest of it....dont like it at all from what I can see.
^ uh, no
All sedans of this size have to look the same, there's not much they can do with the style and they are all trying to optimize their MPGs. The only thing they can get creative with is the grill. That's why small cars tend to be a bit boring.

That would be a great SRT engine for this little car!! No need to over-boost the 4 cylinder, cram a 3L V6 in there and hold on tight!!

One of the reason I dno't like looing at the fiesta from the side, why does the ass have to be so high. I actually like the dodge grill on this. Looks promising, dodge need to get in the compact game again, not that I was ever a fan of teh Neon. But it gave people great piece of mind that they could trade their TV for an almost brand new Neon back int he day. ok maybe their TV and DVD player

Hurray! Cassoulet
Episode #102 · Jacques takes the traditional long-cooked cassoulet of southwestern France and turns it into a 30-minute Cassoulet that can be made for family or company on a weeknight. It's a meal in itself, but even better with the addition of Avocado Halves in Red Sauce, Smoked Salmon Timbales or a Zucchini and Tomato Salad and a refreshing dessert of Oranges and Cream Cheese.
Soup's On
Episode #103 · At the end of a long day, a large bowl of an earthy soup or stew like Corn and Hominy Chowder or Red Snapper with Mussels and Chorizo can be the perfect meal. In addition, Jacques prepares a quick Cheese Crostini and a Banana Bourbon Coupe, a special ending to any meal.
Cooking Under Pressure
Episode #104 · Jacques, having grown up in France during the war, hates waste! The cooking liquid, juices and bodies of lobsters used in Lobster Salad with Tarragon can be used for Lobster Bisque. Servings of Pressure-Cooker Lamb and White Bean Stew can be extended by serving with Couscous or starting with an Asian Eggplant Salad. Jacques also makes a cost-conscious ricotta and graham cracker dessert, Ricotta Honey Mix.
Dessert "Pick Me Up"
Episode #105 · After more than 50 years in the kitchen, Jacques still finds new ways to cook a chicken. For Chicken Breasts on Mashed Cauliflower with Red Salsa, the cooking method is classic, but the combination of flavors is fresh. It's a perfect winter dish paired with Smoked Trout Salad with Horseradish Cream and finished off with Pineapple Slices in Kirsch with Sherbet or Mock Tiramisu.
Apple a Day
Episode #106 · After a busy day, dinner shouldn't be another challenge. Jacques shares the Shrimp Burger he discovered at Dr. Taco in Playa del Carmen and a great improvisational Bean Purée with Anchovies or Smoked Oysters. With the appetite under control, there is time to work on Wonton Cannelloni in Tomato Sauce, Parsley and Pumpkin Seed Salad and Caramelized Apple Granola Timbales.
Quick Cuisine
Episode #107 · Jacques believes culinary inspiration can come from an infinite number of sources. French classics inspire his Codfish Brandade and Chicken Breasts with Garlic and Parsley, peas add sweetness to Brococoli Rabe and Pea Fricassee, brownies take on a new look in a Chocolate Hazelnut Brownie Cake and a hot day and a ripe pineapple inspired a Pineapple Frosty.
Earthly Delights
Episode #108 · Jacques was born hungry so many of his first courses are easily adapted to main courses. Baby Mozzarella Salad, Scrambled Eggs with Mushrooms and Truffles, Sautéed Quail with Raita and Cubed Potatoes with Garlic and Sage are all easily adjusted to fit different appetites. Jacques' good friend, Jean-Claude Szurdak, stops by and offers to prepare Pears in Honeyed Wine as a welcome dessert.
Comfort Kitchen
Episode #109 · Jacques has gone foraging for mushrooms since childhood, but in Mushroom Velouté with Almonds, Instant Beef Tenderloin Stew and Mushroom and Raisin Chutney he uses older, store-bought, white button mushrooms with great results. He also creates a starter of Red Beets in Sour Cream and a finish of Apple, Pecan and Apricot Crumble in no time.
Perfect "Pear"Ings
Episode #110 · A pressure cooker is a means of fast, efficient cooking as in Jacques' Veal Roast. To serve with it, Skillet Endives quickly provide a more concentrated taste. Two great starters, Summer Salad Santé and Tomato and Mozzarella Fans, are best with fresh ingredients from the garden, while Pear Brown Betty uses leftover baked goods.
Palate Pleasers
Episode #111 · Jacques gets inspired at the market. Scrambled Eggs on Tomato Jus can be enhanced by the addition of cheeses, vegetables, and herbs. Grilled Striped Bass with Pimento Relish can be varied by using the freshest fish and herbs available. Jacques also introduces the beautifully refreshing Pink Grapefruit Terrine, as well as the Asian inspired Cauliflower with Scallions and Sesame Oil and a quick Ham Cornucopia.
Casual Entertaining
Episode #112 · When guests stop by and leave little time for preparation, there are easy fix-its. Tuna Tomatoes and Salmon Tartare on Cauliflower Salad are beautiful "do ahead" dishes for lunch or a first course. Breaded Pork Scaloppine with Mushroom Sauce, Chickpea Ragout and Caramelized Peaches can be prepared as a perfect evening supper.
Jacques' Favorites
Episode #113 · Jacques believes in great food everyday. As long as the ingredients are on hand, Prosciutto and Figs or Crab Cakes in Red Sauce need not be saved for special occasions. Pasta, Ham and Vegetable Gratin can make use of leftover meats and vegetables and creates a nice balance when served with a salad of Romaine and Radicchio with Salsa Dressing. Big Almond Macaroons with Apricot Filling make any day feel special.
Under The Sea
Episode #114 · Inspired by his mother, Jeannette, Jacques prepares an Egg and Tomato Gratin and Greens with Quick Cream Dressing. His wife Gloria inspired the first course, Smoked Whitefish Tartine. Stuffed Scallops on Mushroom Rice and Pineapple Wedges in Caramel would inspire anyone wanting great food!
Wrap It Up
Episode #115 · A sit-down dinner with family and friends doesn't have to be formal. Devil Shrimp, Sausage and Potato Packets with Homemade Mustard, Mushroom and Walnut Salad in Sour Cream Dressing and Apple Peel Granité with Apple Purée are dishes that bring the ease of a picnic inside. Jacques assembles a plate full of Basil, Cheese, Fig and Nut Bites, an easy light lunch or a perfect cheese course.
Instantly Delicious
Episode #116 · Sometimes the key to fast food is a well-stocked refrigerator and pantry. Leftover vegetables become a Pépin favorite with Jacques' Instant Vegetable Soup, also known as "fridge soup." By combining a few fresh products and kitchen staples, it is simple to prepare a Lavash Pizza, Halibut on Fresh Polenta with Pepper Oil, Pole Beans with Shallots and Hasty Pudding with Apricot Sauce.
Great Gratins
Episode #117 · On a chilly evening, what could be better for dinner than a cup of soup or a casserole? Jacques shows how homey, comforting foods like Silky Tomato Soup with Spinach Coulis, Little Shrimp Casseroles, Toasted Bread and Mozzarella and a Rhubarb and Berry Crumble can also be great for a party. Apricot Sherbet is a light, easy, make-ahead dessert.
Fusion Flavors
Episode #118 · Jacques has no favorite dishes when it comes to cooking and eating; he likes it all! Guava Delicioso, Chopped Chicken Livers with Spinach Salad, Glazed Salmon in Mirin, Silky Chestnut and Apple Puree and Warm Chocolate Cakes with Apricot-Cognac Sauce show the diversity in Jacques' repertoire.
Stick to Your Ribs
Episode #119 · Jacques proves how fast and easy it can be to use a pressure cooker to make Beef Short Rib, Mushroom and Potato Stew. Meanwhile, there is plenty of time to prepare a starter of Sweet Potato Chowder or Scallop Seviche and Guacamole. The elegant Champagne on Fruit "Rocks" can be the perfect ending to any meal.
Dining Al Fresco
Episode #120 · Take a little extra time at the grocery store or specialty market and introduce new ingredients to the pantry. Mirin, a sweet Japanese rice wine, adds crisp, light flavor to Sea Bass Gravlax with Cucumbers. Anchovies and tuna in oil are part of a quick sauce for Chicken Tonnato. A can of chestnut puree makes the dense Chestnut and Chocolate Cake an easy to prepare, at-home luxury. A different jam or vinegar makes Blueberries in Raspberry Sauce with Ice Cream and Summertime Salad sparkle.
Use Your Noodle
Episode #121 · Jacques has spent more than forty years in the United States, but still embraces the French style of eating eggs for lunch or dinner. Bowtie Pasta with Fried Eggs and Cheese or an omelet, made side-by-side with dear friend Jean-Claude Szurdak, with a Crusty Tomato Savory is among Jacques' favorite meals. He prepares his mother's Peasant Soup, but dishes like Shrimp and Scallop Pillows on Boston Lettuce and a Grapefruit Gratinee are all Jacques'.
International Accents
Episode #122 · Classic combinations shine in Jacques' dishes. Cannellini and Chorizo Soup combines flavorful chorizo and beans. A fennel salad works well alone or as the base of Salmon Rolls on Fennel Salad. Spicy spinach with raisins, pimiento, garlic and olive oil is well-paired with Broiled Lamp Chops with Spinach and super quick Baked Potatoes with Chive Sour Cream. Just make sure to leave room for Crepes with Banana-Rum Filling.
Lusciously Light
Episode #123 · One of Jacques' all time favorite desserts easily becomes two and is a snap to make. Two Raspberry Gratins need little more than frozen raspberries and cookies. It's the perfect ending to the festive Red Snapper with Tomatoes and Cream and Asparagus with Shallots. Garden greens are topped with Sardine Rolls wrapped in rice paper and a Summertime Pasta shows off the freshest produce of the season.
Kitchen Classics
Episode #124 · Jacques loves to cook with the seasons, but many ingredients are actually available year-round. A Smoked Salmon Plate using Scottish or Irish salmon, Soupy Rice with Peas using fresh or frozen peas, Fast Lobster Fricassee using summer or winter lobster, Broccoli Puree with Brown Butter, Broccoli Stem Relish and Vanilla Hazelnut Dessert are all favorites.
Go Fish
Episode #125 · Once again, Jacques demonstrates techniques to help you spend less time in the kitchen. Asparagus Custards and an Apple Skillet Cake can be done ahead and re-heated. A quick Cold Black Bean Soup can be made in minutes and Slow-cooked Tuna Steaks with Tomato Relish free up the cook while the oven does most of the work.
Sunny Delights
Episode #126 · Summertime and the cooking should be easy. Keep the heat in the tortillas and out of the kitchen with a quick, spicy Quesadilla. Check the farmers' market for the freshest tomatoes to make Tomato Tartare with Tomato Water Sauce and sweet strawberries for Strawberry-Shortbread Panachee. When summer is over, turn frozen peas into a Puree of Peas with Mint and Cilantro and warm up with Rigatoni with Mussels and Saffron.
Viva Espana!
Episode #201H · Jacques' world travels influence his cooking and with this menu we'll savor the essence of Spain. Bold and Spicy Gazpacho kicks off the meal followed by Shellfish and Chicken Paella. A detour to pick up some Caribbean flavors makes the last dish of Pineapple In Dark Rum Sauce worth a trip to the kitchen.

Citrus Thrill
Episode #202H · Jacques fires up the kitchen with a mouth-watering Skirt Steak Grandma accented with freshly squeezed lime in anchovy and garlic sauce. He complements this hearty dish with a classic Gnocchi with Eggs and Scallions and Sauteed Curly Mustard Greens with Hot Sausage. The elegantly presented Chestnut Cream Mont-Blanc, with crushed pieces of scrumptious biscotti, chestnut puree, and whipped cream, is simply a delicious ending.

Perfect Presentations
Episode #203H · Lobster Roll Medallions on Spinach Salad show off Jacques new presentation of a summer seafood favorite. He proves that a craving for hearty food can be satisfied in minutes with Quick Lamb Stew where vegetables are cooked separately and the lamb is served rare. Then skip the time and effort it takes to make the crust for a tart and head straight for the filling in this shortcut that encases Small Berry Custards in pretty dishes.

HBO and the NFL have narrowed down the HARD KNOCKS teams to a list of three: Bears, Giants, Steelers
HBO and the NFL have narrowed down the HARD KNOCKS teams to a list of three: Bears, Giants, Steelers
Of course they would. Who would want to watch Hard Knocks Arizona Cardinals?
I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite team in the NFL.
mike freeman @mikefreemanNFL 9m
NFL's Greg Aiello on report that Bears, Giants, Steelers are finalists for Hard Knocks: "totally inaccurate."
And with the first pick of the 2014 Hard Knocks draft HBO and the NFL select...The New York Giants. (John Mara's head explodes and Tom Coughlin plans to fine every member of the camera crew for being late)
One of these teams is not like the others
Thanks rudy
Football has been very, very good to us.
After losing seasons 2013-15, the giants put up 11 wins in 16.. they are on way Back
But for now we can console ourselves with this fact-
# of Super Bowl victories since 1985:
1-Chicago, St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Seattle
2-Washington, Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Baltimore
3-San Francisco, Dallas, Denver
4-New York Giants!!!
Let's make it 5 in 2016 so we can be on a LINE NE again!!!
***Stat provided by "Schloss22"***
This is a year where Coughlin needs to go hard on his team. We don't need cameras when he's trying to Fix the offense. I smell a few Youtube worthy tirades and some crocodile tears.
What would happen if Giants refused to go on Hard Knocks? A fine?
I don't know if it will come to that but I am also not sure John Mara really wants to shovel **** against that tide. The owners, except for him I think, voted for the program. My thinking is that he will work behind the scenes to avoid any public confrontation.
Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. MB Rule # 1

Electronic music made and performed specifically using an Apple Mac laptop i.e. a MacBook or any other Mac product such as an iPad or even iPhone. It is a fusion of "Mac" and "Electronica". This music can incorporate other elements - such as vocal or acoustic instrumentation. The music can be triggered, queued or created live from the Macbook or other Mac device. It is a variation of "Laptronica" which is a fusion of "Laptop" and "Electronica". The term evolved after noticing that a high percentage of electronic musicians who performed with laptops, were using MacBooks. Mac's cult status with artists, musicians and creatives loaned itself recognition as a specific subcategory of electronica.

"Romney is now a toxic asset to unload"
Romney is being erased with record speed from his party's books for three reasons. First, many Republicans backed him because they thought he had a good chance of winning; that appeal, obviously, is gone. Second, Romney had shallow roots, and few friends, in the national Republican Party. And those shallow roots have allowed Republicans to give him a new role: As a sort of bad partisan bank, freighted with all the generational positions and postures that they are looking to dump…
There is an irony that Romney, the moderate, will be forced to carry off Todd Akin's baggage on reproductive rights; Joe Arpaio's on immigration; and James Dobson on gay rights. But when he cast popular policies as "gifts" to Obama voters (ignoring both his and Obama's expensive promises to older voters), his decision to, as Bobby Jindal put it, "insult" the demographic groups who are a larger part of each successive electorate offered the Republicans the pivot they had been looking for toward presenting a younger, more diverse, and more inclusive party.
Now Romney's own party will gladly let him, and his reputation, carry off the values for which he is only now, for the first time, really the spokesman.
