Estela have been an excellent host. Kind and helpful, she complement the wonderful Apartment. It is cosy, well equipped and with a perfect location. I will be happy to come back in the future.
We had a really fantastic weekend in Lissabon!!!
The flat was very clean ,beautiful and central as well. We slept as good as if we were at home! The apartement was perfect for our city trip. Estela, many thanks for all the great dining tips. You have my vote for the host of the year award ;-)
Very friendly and helpful hosts and the apartment was just perfect! Nothing negative to say, thanks!
Estela was an awesome host and very, very helpful.She helped organizing stuff and was very flexibel with the check-in/check-out. The apartment is beautiful and I can only recommend to stay here. Despite this, as already stated in the description, the nightlife from Bairro Alto is very, very close so you should be aware that it might get a bit loud outside. Nevertheless we would go there anytime again.
Appartamento molto confortevole, centralissimo, a pochi minuti da piazza del Chiado. Ci siamo trovati veramente bene. Lo consiglia ma tutti quelli che visiteranno Lisbona. Grazie a Pedro ed Estela.
Fenomenal, en cuanto a ubicación, relación/calidad precio... Muy acogedor y buen decorado, completísimo en cuanto a ajuar y a un paso de todos los siitos para cenar y salir. Eso sí, algo ruidoso los fines de semana por la noche.
Der Aufenthalt in Lissabon hat uns sehr gut gefallen: ein wichtiger Faktor dabei war die Wohnung von Estela. Es gab ein einen freundlichen Empfang und eine nette Einführung. Die Lage der Wohnung war für uns perfekt, mittendrin, dicht an öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln und ein sehr guter Ausgangspunkt für Spaziergänge und fürs Einkaufen. ... und natürlich fürs Nachtleben. Die guten Fenster konnte man nachts schon gut gebrauchen. Gut gefallen hat uns auch, dass es eine Grundausstattung wie Salz, Zucker, Spülmittel gab. Bei 5 Nächten wäre evtl. ein Handtuchwechsel gut gewesen. Besonderen Dank an Estela fürs Taxi reservieren. Das hat alles bestens geklappt.

At first we want to say that Estela is the perfect host. When we arrived, she took her time to explain and show us everything about the appartment and to give us a lot of information about lisbon.She even asked us which person she could contact in case something would happen with us.
The bottle of wine in the fridge was a nice gesture.
About the appartment we just can say good things: clean, complete equipped kitchen, very good shower, very good bed and perfectly located in bairro alto, close to bars, shops and restaurants.
Thank you Estela. We enjoyed Lisbon very much
Am in love in Lisabon and i will be back for sure! That was absolutely a good choise to sleep in this charming apartment. If you go to Lisabon for few days, you must book it because is very clean and chic! Estela is a very kind, friendly and helping person! See you next time.
This is a very cosy and well equiped apartment. The location is perfect, you can reach all the area's by foot. Shops, metrostation and a stop for the famous 28E tram are around the corner.
Estela is a very friendly and attentive and helpful host and likes to share a lot of information about what to do and see in Lisboa.
And her mothers tomatojam is delicious!

Paige Joins White House Conference for Grassroots Groups
U.S. Secretary of Education Rod Paige joined Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives Director Jim Towey and more than 1,000 leaders of faith-based and community organizations on July 29 in Minneapolis, Minn., at a White House conference aimed at educating grassroots groups about the federal grants process and ways to strengthen the services they offer to the economically disadvantaged in their communities.
"The president is committed to leveling the playing field so that good people who used to get left out of the process can now act on convictions to help make a difference in people's lives," Secretary Paige said.
The Minneapolis event was the seventh in a series of regional conferences sponsored by the White House to provide participants with information about federal grant programs, the grant writing process and the legal requirements that apply to recipients of federal funds.
Through several programs, including Supplemental Education Services, Safe and Drug-Free Schools Mentoring Programs and 21st Century Community Learning Centers, the No Child Left Behind Act offers faith-based and community organizations grant opportunities to provide services and activities that are not inherently religious. The Department of Education is seeking to recruit the most qualified among such service providers throughout the country. The next White House conference is on Oct. 29 in Memphis, Tenn.

How We Spent Our Summer: A Review of ED's Initiatives
While students were out of school on summer vacation, the U.S. Department of Education (ED) continued running full time in preparation for the new school year. Below is a sampling of the summer's developments:
- The National Assessment of Educational Progressalso called The Nation's Report Cardreported promising results on the 2002 reading and writing exams for more than 270,000 students in grades 4, 8 and 12 throughout the country. In reading, black fourth-graders narrowed the achievement gap from 1994 between their white counterparts, while Hispanic fourth-graders also narrowed the gap from 2000 between their white peers. The eighth-grade reading score is higher than it was in 1992, when the National Center for Education Statistics first administered the test. In writing, although more than two-thirds of the nation's students still perform below the proficient level, the latest scores revealed students are performing better than they did four years ago. For more information, visit http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/.
- "Choice is essential for authentic school reform," said Secretary Paige in celebration of the House Government Reform Committee's passage on July 10 of the D.C. Parental Choice Incentive Act of 2003. President Bush is requesting $75 million for a choice incentive fund in fiscal year 2004, including funding for a school choice initiative in the District of Columbia to provide scholarships of up to $7,500 for eligible students.
- The White House Initiative on Educational Excellence for Hispanic Americans and some of the nation's leading Hispanic organizations, corporate leaders, and national and private entitiesincluding Girl Scouts of the USA, the League of United Latin American Citizens, and the United States Armyformed a partnership in July to help improve education for Hispanic Americans. To accomplish this goal, partners will host programs that include town hall meetings, workshops and a seminar on student financial aid and scholarships. The first event is scheduled for Oct. 18 in San Diego, Calif. More information is available at www.yesican.gov.
- On July 8, Secretary Paige gave Congress an 18-month update on the implementation of No Child Left Behind that also included topics the Department will focus on going forward. In the memo, Secretary Paige announced that the accountability plans of every state as well as Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia had been approved, a major milestone achieved in record time since only 11 states were in compliance with the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1994 when President Bush took office. Among the issues the agency will direct its attention to over the next few months are increasing the pool of highly qualified teachers and expanding tutoring and other supplemental services.
- The Education Department's Office of Vocational and Adult Education and the League for Innovation in the Community College announced in June the first 15 partnerships for the College and Career Transitions Initiative, a program designed to ease student transition between high school and postsecondary education and to improve academic performance at both levels. Each partnership comprises a community college, high school and two employers. For a list of the partnerships, organized by occupational area, visit www.ed.gov/news/pressreleases/2003/06/06132003.html.
- The Education Department also announced in June the appointment of a steering committee to assist the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Researcha component of the Department's Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Servicesin developing a plan for disability and rehabilitation research over the next five years. The plan will emphasize disability demographics research, technology for access and function, employment and health, and basic functioning to help people with disabilities live the independent, productive lives they desire. The public is invited to submit recommendations about the plan to email@example.com.
- On June 6, Inner-City Games Chairman Arnold Schwarzenegger and Secretary Paige concluded the After-School Summit, marking the first time in the history of the Education Department that an assembly of after-school providers, law enforcement officials, and community and education leaders gathered to discuss how after-school programs can better serve millions of young people whose parents are at work or unable to provide support after the school day ends. The Education Department will continue to work with the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, which sponsored the event, and Schwarzenegger to help state and local education agencies link children to after-school programs when the school day ends.
The rate of teachers lacking full certification remained unchanged over the past two years at 6 percent.

Close-Up: No Child Left BehindTeacher Quality
This summer, Secretary Paige introduced the Teacher Assistance Corps as the centerpiece of a series of initiatives to assist states and educators in meeting the highly-qualified-teacher requirements of the No Child Left Behind Act. The law requires every classroom to have a highly qualified teacher by the end of the 2005-06 school year.
|"If we continue as we are now, we will be creating the same type of separateness, two worlds, based this time not on race, but rather on the fact that some have a wonderful education and others do not have a wonderful education, still separate and unequal."
Secretary Paige in his commencement speech at Pepperdine University, Graduate School of Education, in July 2003.
Under its provisions, highly qualified teachers must hold at least a bachelor's degree, have full state certification or licensure, and have demonstrated competence in their subject areas. However, states also have the flexibility to develop alternative routes to certification as well as methods to enable veteran teachers to prove they have the content knowledge to be successful in the classroom. At the local level, Title I schools must notify parents if their child has been assigned to a teacher who is not highly qualified or if their child has been taught for four or more consecutive weeks by such a teacher.
The Teacher Assistance Corps, an assembly of education experts, researchers and practitioners, will perform onsite reviews tailored to the explicit needs and concerns of state officials. The teams will offer guidance and feedback on state efforts, address specific state challenges, and provide useful information from other states about promising practices in the field. State participation is voluntary.
The announcement of the Corps came as the secretary released his second annual report on teacher quality, which is available online at https://www.title2.org/index.htm.

Now available for parents looking to better understand No Child Left Behind is a guide that summarizes the main provisions of the law, answers common questions, and provides information on additional resources.
No Child Left Behind: A Parents Guide explains the benefits for parents of this historic legislation to improve student achievement and change the culture of America's schools. Signed by President Bush into law on Jan. 8, 2002, the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 builds on four principles for education reform: accountability for results; doing what works based on scientific research; expanded parent options; and expanded local control and flexibility.
The guide focuses on the parent-related provisions of the law with specific information about requirements that, for instance, mandate states and school districts to give parents reader-friendly, detailed report cards on the performance of schools and districts. It also explains the options for parents of children in persistently failing schools. Other topics include teacher quality; creating safer schools; choice and supplemental education services; and charter schools.

Round 1 Jonathan Banks, CB Miss St .. An instant starter on this defense. Webster is over 30, Prince seems like a solid player, but he needs to be pushed. Hosley is most likely a nickel corner and TT is coming off his third ACL surgery. Need to upgrade and Banks is a baller with swag.
Round 2 Jesse Williams, DT Alabama . Monster in the middle. He is excellent against the run and based off the Giants inability to stop the run this year, he can provide a need. Joseph has turned into a great player, Canty may be nearing the end, Bernard is most likely done and Austin is still trying to learn the NFL game. Williams would be a fantastic addition. He was unstoppable in the title game offense and defense.
Round 3 - Corey Lemonier, DE Auburn Elite pass rusher has the ability to be an Osi type player, but was hampered by an ankle injury. He is all over the field and would be a phenomenal attention to the pass rushing game.
Round 4 Brennan Williams, OT North Carolina Giants are in desperate need for a starting RT. Williams did a great job leading the way for Giovanni Bernard. DD is done, Locklear will be rehabbing and Brewer is awful.
Round 5 Travis Kelce, TE Cincinnati . Underrated TE prospect with an all-around good game. He runs good routes, has good speed and is a big guy that could be a nice project for the coaching staff. Last years pick, Robinson is a major project and he has not proven to be able to dress at the NFL level.
Round 6 Bruce Taylor, ILB Virginia Tech Smart football player that always seemed to be around the ball. Reminds me a lot of Jonathon Goff, but a better athlete. Giants could use an upgrade and may look to FA to fill this void.
Round 7 Michael Dyer, RB Arkansas State Former Auburn standout and one of the top recruits out of High School. He has some off the field issues, but he could really be a steal in the draft. Bradshaw is a tough dude, but he cannot stay healthy. Wilson has been playing well as of late, but he needs to improve quickly. Dyer would just bring another weapon to the backfield.

G4S' involvement in Israel's occupation of Palestine is manifold. A Who Profits report [1], "The Case of G4S: Private Security Companies and the Israeli Occupation," lays out G4S's involvement in the occupation, where these pictures and much of the information below comes from.
Prison Security
Israeli prisons hold a large number of Palestinian political prisoners. According to Addameer [2], the Prisoner Support and Human Rights Association in Palestine, most Palestinian prisoners are held in detention facilities located outside the oPt. However, the transfer of detainees to locations within an occupying power's territory is illegal under international law and can be constituted as a war crime. As Article 76 [3] of the Fourth Geneva Convention states, "Protected persons accused of offenses shall be detained in the occupied country, and if convicted they shall serve their sentences therein." As of October 2012, the current documented [4] Palestinian political prisoner population in Israeli prisons and detention centers was 4,596 people, including women, children and hundreds of administrative detainees. Administrative detention is a procedure that allows the Israeli military to hold prisoners indefinitely for renewable 6-month periods on secret information without charging them or allowing them to stand trial.
A main prison facility for Palestinian political prisoners is the Ofer compound in the West Bank. G4S Technologies provided a perimeter defense system for the walls of the Ofer and installed a central command room inside to monitor the entire facility. Despite being in the West Bank, the compound is located in what Israel defines as the "Seam Zone," on the Jerusalem-Ramallah road, making access for West Bank Palestinians highly restricted, both for family members of detainees and for their lawyers. Entry is dependent on the receipt of a special access permit, also making it nearly impossible for the Palestinian public to attend court hearings.
Additionally, G4S has provided security systems for several other detention facilities and prisons that hold "security prisoners" (ie Palestinian political prisoners) from both Israel and the oPt. Human rights and prisoner rights organizations in Israel have documented [5] cases of torture and abuse of Palestinian prisoners at several of these facilities and petitions, such as this one [6] (Hebrew), have been submitted on behalf of Palestinian plaintiffs testifying that they have undergone torture. Palestinian detainees who are interrogated in these detention facilities report being shackled in painful positions for days, deprived of sleep, denied medical care, beaten, and exposed to extreme temperatures for long periods of time. Additionally, detainees report undergoing psychological torture, including being threatened that if they do not confess, close family members will be brought in for interrogation and torture, that they will be imprisoned for long periods of time, and/or that their homes will be demolished. A report [7] by Defence for Children International – Palestine Section (DCI Palestine), highlights how children are also arrested, detained, and mistreated at these prisons, even documenting cases of torture at these facilities. It has also been recorded that children may not receive adequate food, water, shelter, or medical services, or be able to communicate with their families. This article [8] highlights how children have been held in solitary confinement in prisons where G4S operates.
Checkpoint Equipment
G4S Israel has supplied luggage scanning equipment and full body scanners to several checkpoints [9] in the West Bank, including the Qalandia checkpoint, the Bethlehem checkpoint, and the Irtah (Sha'ar Efraim) checkpoint. The Qalandia and Bethlehem checkpoints are part of the Israeli system of control that sustains its annexation of East Jerusalem, since they prevent Palestinian residents of the West Bank from entering vast areas of occupied land around the city of Jerusalem and from entering occupied East Jerusalem itself. The annexation of East Jerusalem was found to be one of the grave breaches of international law against the Palestinian people during the Barcelona session [10] of the Russell Tribunal on Palestine.
G4S Israel has also provided full body scanners to the Erez checkpoint in Gaza. The Erez checkpoint serves as part of the Israeli closure policy over the Gaza Strip.
Settlement Services
G4S openly offers its security services to businesses in the illegal settlements [11] in the West Bank and the settlement neighborhoods of East Jerusalem. In July of 2010, G4S Israel announced its take-over of Aminut Moked Artzi, one of the oldest private security companies in Israel and which provided security services to businesses in the Barkan industrial zone. G4S stated that it would continue the Aminut business operations. G4S Israel has also provided security equipment for the Judea and Samaria Police Department, Israeli police headquarters in the West Bank. This is a civilian force that polices the Israeli settler population in the segregated West Bank; their headquarters are located near the settlement of Ma'ale Adumim.

Paul C Buff Speedring
The Paul C Buff Speedring is designed specifically for Elinchrom flashes and strobes. Speedrings are paired with rod-based softboxes, octaboxes, and other light modifiers to be mounted on the front of your flash/strobe to soften and shape the light to taste. To use, simply line the rods of your softbox (not included) to the pegs of the speedring like building a tent. Then, put the strobe and speedring together and lock down.
Notes: These speedrings are compatible with our Einstein flash heads and the White Lightning flash heads, such as the 1320W/s X3200 Flash. They are not necessary to rent alongside the Paul C Buff 2x3' Softbox because that modifier comes with its own built-in Paul C Buff speedring. This speedring will accept a variety of rod-based modifiers but experiment at your own risk.
There is no manual for this product.

'Hotel Rwanda' hero to speak at Binghamton University Homecoming
Paul Rusesabagina, the hero of the Rwandan genocide immortalized by Don Cheadle in the film Hotel Rwanda, will speak at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, October 12, in the Binghamton University Events Center.
Rusesabagina's speech, titled "Hotel Rwanda: A lesson Yet to be Learned," will touch on the events of the 1994 acts of genocide, the political climate in Africa and the international response to the current crisis in Darfur, Sudan.
The 2004 Academy Award nominated film Hotel Rwanda tells the story of Rusesabaginas's heroism in saving the lives of more than 1,200 people during the 1994 genocide that killed 800,000 people in just under 100 days. For over three months, Rusesabagina used his influence and connections as temporary manager of the Mille Collines Hotel to shelter over 1,260 Tutsis and moderate Hutus from being slaughtered by government militia.
Rusesabagina was awarded the U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom, the Immortal Chaplains Prize for Humanity and the National Civil Rights Freedom Award.
Tickets for the presentation will go on sale August 28 at the University Union's Tillman box office, the Events Center box office or on-line by visiting http://eventscenter.binghamton.edu/concerts.htm.

Gold's Gym on Shoreline in Mountain View has remodeled, but they made a mistake with the spinning room. The previous spinning room was spacious, a pleasant place to work out, lots of light and space for I'm guessing 25 or more bikes.
Well they have stuffed 18 bikes into a room that is less than a quarter of the size of the old spinning room! You can't walk between bikes without bumping into bikes or people. The aisles are certainly not wide enough for anyone that is even the least bit overweight. The room is claustrophobic and dark and uninviting. Anyone who is planning to join a gym for spinning classes - YOU WON'T LIKE THIS GYM! There was no reason to reduce the size of the spinning room so much but Gold's management doesn't seem to care. This is not a gym that listens to their members.

Gold's Gym Mountain View - the worst spinning room in the Bay area!

Five electric utility chiefs are showing true leadership for their companies and for an entire industry.
Who are the best-of-the-best chief executive officers (CEOs) in the power industry? Fortnightly magazine wanted to know. After an almost unending parade of accounting scandals, credit downgrades, and overall corporate malfeasance that shook the industry to its foundation, true leadership is needed now more than ever. But just what is true leadership, and how do you measure it? Peter F. Drucker, a famed guru and authority on corporate management, has said that effective leadership is not about making speeches or being liked; leadership is defined by results, not attributes. Certainly, the CEOs profiled in Fortnightly's 2003 CEO Power Forum are leading companies with financial results that should be the envy and example to all of the utility industry.
We asked SNL Financial, the independent energy information and research firm, to analyze the sector and generate a list of profitability metrics for the 10 largest firms by equity market value (see below), which became the basis for our selection of this year's best-of-the-best CEOs. Then, the Fortnightly editors selected from the top companies those CEOs who, to paraphrase another Drucker maxim, did the right things in addition to showing stellar financial results:
- H. Allen Franklin, Southern Co., for his ability to show how a modern regulated utility is run successfully.
- John W. Rowe, Exelon, for his ability to show that utilities can succeed in competitive markets.
- Thos. E. Capps, Dominion, for his high ethics and uncanny exercise of good corporate judgment in avoiding the pitfalls of others.
- E. Linn Draper Jr., American Electric Power (AEP), for his leadership in restoring the reputation of a great utility name.
- Eugene R. McGrath, Consolidated Edison Inc., for showing what T&D utilities can accomplish, and showing true heroism on Sept. 11.
It is interesting to note how varied the companies' corporate strategies are-yet all have managed to make the list. Southern Co. (ticker: SO), which is in the number one spot this year, is a 100-percent regulated utility, while Exelon (ticker: EXC), in the number three spot, resides in two competitive markets, Illinois and Pennsylvania. Dominion (ticker: D), in the fourth spot, differentiates itself through its profitable exploration and production business, in addition to being an electric utility. Furthermore, Dominion managed to avoid merchant generation overbuilding and the energy trading scandal, and the company was one of the few that pursued an international strategy and turned a profit.
American Electric Power (ticker: AEP), having done some fine-tuning in response to its previous involvement in energy trading and the merchant sector, is managing to steer to calmer waters, making the ninth spot on the list. Last but not least is Consolidated Edison (ticker: ED), which as one of the largest wires businesses in the country, shows you don't need generation to be among the elite.
So, what is the future of the electric utility industry, and where is it going? In the following pages, five of the industry's top leaders talk about the strategy and future of their companies and the industry.

Marines, sailors return home just in time for holidays
M.C.A.S. NEW RIVER, JACKSONVILLE - About 170 Marines and sailors from Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 167 are returning to Eastern North Carolina after serving seven months in Afghanistan.
Marine Corps spokeswoman 1st Lt. Sarah Burns says the group is scheduled to return to Marine Corps Air Station New River on Thursday.
During the deployment, the unit provided close-air support, medical evacuation escorts and assault support to troops on the ground.
The unit left in May after spending several months preparing for the deployment, which included training at Marine Corps Air-Ground Combat Center at Twentynine Palms, Calif.

I've developed a Super-Lite bar using Delrin for the end caps instead of aluminum. This reduces the overall weight of each stabilizer by about 1.5 ozs without sacrificing overall rigidity... This is the same high quality carbon material used in my original bar with reduced weight and reduced pricing. A 12" bar weighs in at only 2.5 Oz's, 18" about 3 Oz's and a full 31" is about 3 3/4 Oz's.
Introductory Pricing:
Bars up to 11" are $29 TYD and 2 bar sets are $55 TYD
Bars 12" to 15" are $39 TYD and 2 bars sets are $75 TYD
Front bars (up to 33") are $69 TYD and a 2 bar set (1 Front bar and 1 12" to 15" side bar) is $99 TYD
All TYD shipments are Lower 48 although I'll ship anywhere on your dime.

Crow Wing County GIS mapping search options increase
Crow Wing County Land Services announces that all land use permit history is now available for viewing through the GIS mapping website.
Included in the permit search are items such as conditional use permits, variance applications, septic information, building permits, wetland permits and subdivision applications.
Crow Wing County recently added the "Survey Docs" search tab to the GIS user interface, which enables the public to search for survey-related documents through the GIS mapping website.
Some items under the Survey Docs search include certificate of surveys, recorded plats, minor subdivisions and historical public land survey information.
Searching for permit history or survey documents can be done by selecting the scan documents icon in the GIS mapping application and following the drop down menu to choose the document type of choice.
Users will be able to choose from multiple print layouts (i.e., portrait, landscape and additional page sizes), export formats and resolutions when printing. In addition, users will have the ability to select features by line and polygon in the mapping application.
"Crow Wing County is continually working to utilize advances in technology to make information more readily available for individuals and professionals in the real estate and land use profession," Crow Wing County survey/planning coordinator Paul Herkenhoff said. "These enhancements have helped staff and the general public by providing better and more efficient ways of searching for data 24 hours a day, 7 days a week."
Watch a video on this and/or other features of the GIS mapping site by visiting Crow Wing County's You Tube site at www.youtube.com/user/CrowWingCounty.

[quote user="Morehead State"][quote user="JPizzack"][quote user="Kase-1"][quote user="JPizzack"]
yes, after the 2010 season, which was an uncapped year we were at approx $127 million.
The new cap for all NFL teams is $120 mill.
I assume that we cut some fat after camp, but i dont know for sure.

youre right about players wanting more money and stuff like that. That's why we probably cant afford Manningham. We gotta pay Cruz too, so....
McKenzie's contract is done, and I have to assume that we look elsewhere for his replacement, and that one alone is about $6mill coming off the books.
They also have to decide what they are doing with Ross, Goff, TT, Hixon, Tollefson, Bernard and Grant.
I assume we keep Goff, and especially TT. I hope we keep Tolly also
I'd even say keep Rocky Bernard since he came at a cheap price after we picked him back up.

[/quote]I def think Super Mario is getting a big pay day from a team
Suge Knight has been on the downslide of his career for the past 2 seasons, he was our anchor in the run game but not he's our weakest link on the OL
I can see Grant retiring and leaving on top even though I would like to see him on our squad for one more year allowing Sash to step into a full role
I REALLY hope we keep Tolly, he was one of the best players off the bench for us and allowed us to keep our DL rotation fresh.* I can see a team offering him more money than we would like to shell out
T2 and Goff should get the 1year Kiwi-Contracts and if they stay healthy they should be offered long term deals.
The toughest FA IMO is AR31. I have been bashing this guy since 08 but we may actually need him this upcoming season, we have our #2 coming off a terrible knee injury and our next best guy was a rookie that played like 4 games, so I wouldnt expect alot from either of them.* Keeping that in mind, AR31 would be nice to have to allow us to bring Prince along without tossing him straight into the fire
I expect nothing from Hixon
Hixon is such a liability with all the injuries. he's missed more games than he's ever played in. Sucks, because he had such a high cieling. I remember how excited we were when he stepped up after the Plaxcident......well....except those perfectly botched catches against the eagles...lol, but...he had a good season considering...

He tore up his knee making maybe the best, and certainly one of the most important catches of the season.* We could have lost that game very easily without that play.

Lets go easy on Hixon.* He could still be a great return man for us.* And we certainly need that.
[/quote]Time will tell for Hixon, Im hopeful.
Mannigham is going to be expensive if he does go-I hope it's not to the skins with Peyton as his QB.
Has a $ amt that Cruz is looking for been released?

Art Writer's Wednesday 1 - Tumblr Artist
Loui Jover | on Tumblr (Australia)
"I paint, I draw, and I do it everyday." Loui Jover is a self represented full time artist from Queensland, Australia. His artwork involves drawing in ink over adhered-together vintage book papers. Loui has held three solo exhibitions and has been included in numerous group shows. Leslie Seuffert interviewed the Artist for Artchipel's Art Writer's Wednesday #1.
Leslie Seuffert for Artchipel : You've recently joined Tumblr to share your art with the community. Who is Loui Jover? Tell us about your educational background and your creative style.
LJ : I did a number artistic training including studies in contemporary art, advanced visual communication and commercial art at Melbourne Art Institute, Gold Coast Tafe and at a visual training institute in Sydney. I joined Tumblr to look at the world it presents, where all are invited to contribute, where there is no exclusion, where there is an amazing diversity and freedom. It is vibrant and vigorous, bold and random and most of all inspiring. The inspiration is one of the most important things any artist needs to tap into.
LS : Why drawing, as opposed to another outlet?
LJ : I think drawing came naturally, it is immediate and visceral. I learnt music for a number of years, I tried and still enjoy doing some writing. I also studied painting but always come back to drawing in ink, pen and brush as this is what I get the most satisfaction from. It is the medium in which I am the most "free" to express. It is my primary method of self-expression.
LS : You draw almost exclusively on sheets of vintage book paper. Why and how this choice of material is performed?
LJ : The use of old vintage book pages is the advent of a number of reasons. Firstly I needed paper and I glued these sheets I had from an old ruined book. The decision became entrenched when I looked at the aesthetic result of that first drawing. The idea that damaged and unwanted books could be saved and reused appealed to his ideals about re-imagining and recycling things from around his local environment. The works seem to make an indirect reference to the fact that books themselves are seemingly dying with the advent of the ebook and technology.
LS : What are you trying to express through your drawings?
LJ : I am not always sure what it is I am attempting to express, that's why I do so many differing forms of drawing and visual work. I make cartoons to show my more flippant comical and sarcastic side, I make large drawings of faces to express a more emotive facet, I also create more experimental work such as mixed media drawings and digital collage to try and extend my forays into my expressive discoveries. But in the end it is the pure joy of drawing itself that propels my need to create artwork.
LS : The women in your painting often appear quite gloomy. Is there a reason or is it coincidental?
LJ : I do try to express the feeling of melancholia, it is my main motivation to illustrate a collective sadness or reflective nature. I personally think these drawings are a direct visceral reaction to the prevailing "sad" state of the human condition itself. In another way, they are my own answer to the blue period by Pablo Picasso that inspired and burned its way into my artistic psyche at a very early age.
LS : What is your favorite piece?
LJ : I do not have a favorite work as I am on this journey where if I was to become completely happy with a work, I would be at its end. I think for most artists, if you make the perfect drawing, you are bound to start repeating yourself. If you end up repeating yourself as an artist, it's time to re-evaluate why you are making art in the first place.
LS : If you had to sum up what your art means, what would it say?
LJ : Art tempers my spirit, it gives me direction. Without art I would most likely be a psychopath. One can spend a lifetime looking at the world but seldom do they "see" anything. My art helps me to "see" life around me, without art things seem brutal and pointless.

Showing the Adobe Digital Publishing Suite and the new Photoshop CS5 companion apps on the iPad in Kortrijk at the Multi-Mania keynote. Very cool event! The house was packed. Thanks to everyone who came and a special thank you to the organizers as well.
A couple of experimental images I created using Repoussé in Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended. The ability to extrude objects, distort them, have them cast shadows, and have it all rendered using Ray Tracing, is just phenomenal.
All of these were created using the Appearance Panel in Adobe Illustrator. Show me what you do with that feature!
I guess this screenshot taken yesterday is right to the point…
I created this new blog to gather all the little things that are too long for Twitter (140 characters) and which do not necessarily require a full blog post over at rufus.deuchler.net.
I think of myself as a designer, and that was my first profession [that would be Rufus version 1]. Later in in my career I ventured onto something completely different: Software Evangelism. My first tour of duty with Adobe was from '07 to '09, and that would be Rufus version 2. Now that I am offered the incredible opportunity to join Adobe for a second time, I call myself Rufus 2.5.

text: I agree with bandit. Nobody got more press and attention in Torino than Johnny. He was 3 time champion besides. I think he annoyed the heck out of the Federation with his Russophilia. According to Priscilla her life was hell in Torino because they were constantly on HER back to make him give up his jacket that Totmianina had given him. If he had stood up and won a medal after his great start it would have been Evan who? But the jacket deal along with Evan bombing the short and then coming back to 4th was the antithesis of Johnny in place for a silver and losing ground that tipped them over into Evan's camp. He was a biddable, flag waving "straight" boy who said what they told him to in interviews. As opposed to a rebellious Russophilaic who was "flamboyant" and is a very colorful interviewee. I prefer an interesting person but there's no denying he's a rogue. He's has flat out said he's not a team player more than once. I think even in his book.

Mobile Computing Solutions with Intel® Core™ vPro™ Processors
Intel delivers speed and security on the go [d:814],[d:1344]
To help deliver the instant communication and access to applications today's users need, mobile solutions based on Intel® CoreTM vProTM processors and Intel® CoreTM vProTM processors extend the limits of mobile computing. No matter where business takes your remote users, Intel-powered mobile solutions keep the experience rich, secure, and productive with features that:
- Protect critical business data by accelerating data encryption up to four times faster without interfering with user productivity1,2
- Deliver an automatic burst of speed whenever users need it3
- Wake clients in a flash, enabling them to return to full operational power within seconds and power down when on standby, saving both time and battery life4
- Provide 2x faster multi-tasking to run multiple applications at optimum speed, enabling users to effortlessly move between applications5
Embedded security adds another layer of protection6,7
As the workforce becomes more mobile and users continue to mix personal and professional roles and applications, Intel® CoreTM vProTM processors have stepped up to help protect corporate infrastructure from new, more sophisticated attacks and security breaches. These embedded technologies are available in a variety of thin and light laptops, providing mobile users with a powerful combination of intelligent performance and built-in security.
- Hardware-level policies: Detect suspicious behavior and cut off suspect laptops from the network
- Remote support and monitoring capabilities: Enable help desk staff to access and control users' computers to resolve issues through all states, including reboot
- Manage threats: Push security updates to users before a breach occurs and diagnose, isolate, and repair infected PCs after a breach takes place8
- Protect identity and access points: Embedded, tamper-resistant two-factor authentication helps secure virtual private network (VPN) access and access to Software as a Service (SaaS) applications9
- Protect against malware and rootkits: Intel® Trusted Execution Technology and Intel® Virtualization Technology provide added protection in both virtual and physical environments10,11,12
- Protect data in the cloud and on mobile PCs: Hardware-based encryption technology generates higher random numbers, making data encryption even more secure for safer online interactions1
Lock down lost or stolen laptops
With the rapid growth of mobile computing, one of the biggest risks of data loss is through a lost or stolen PC. Intelligent, hardware-based security features can limit the loss of a laptop to only the actual laptop. In other words, they help protect the contents of its missing hard drive. This is done in several ways:
- The PC automatically disables itself locally if it detects a hacker, even before the user has realized it's been lost or stolen
- If the PC is discovered lost or stolen, but no attempt at hacking has been made, IT can remotely access and lock it down
- A "poison pill" option can be sent via an embedded token that renders missing laptops useless—unauthorized users cannot access the hard drive10

The trials and tribulations of Motel selection
Enjoyed a cereal, orange juice and cup of tea at the Super 8 Motel this morning. Headed off early at about 9.00am. Already had nearly a full tank of gas, as they say over here, so followed the Garmin route across country a little bit until we joined I-71 South. Pretty much uneventful journey through a lot of Appalachian mountains national park. Plenty of green, green, green trees of various kinds. Seemed to be Pine, Birch, and others ...

Kobayashi Issa (1763-1827), along with Basho and Buson, is considered one of the three greatest haiku poets of Japan, known for his attention to poignant detail and his playful sense of humor. Issa's most-loved work, The Spring of My Life, is an autobiographical sketch of linked prose and haiku in the tradition of Basho's famous Narrow Road to the Interior.
In addition to The Spring of My Life, the translator has included more than 160 of Issa's best haiku and an introduction providing essential information on Issa's life and valuable comments on translating (and reading) haiku.

Figure of King Edward IV in the Horse Armoury, by Robert William Buss, about 1840

James II from Charles Knight, London, 1842.
Portrait of William Hutton by an unknown artist, about 1780 © Birmingham Museums Trust
Carved wooden head of Henry VI. English, about 1688-91 (XVII.43)
Henry VI's reign was a turbulent one. Following what is believed to be his mental breakdown, Henry VI's throne came under dispute in what became known as the Wars of the Roses.
The Tower of London guidebook of 1753 noted of the eventful reign: 'no less that 16 battles were fought at home and abroad'. This not only included the battles of the Wars of the Roses but also the rise and fall of Joan of Arc in France. Furthermore William Hutton remarked on the peculiarity of displaying a Line of Kings with the two 'mortal enemies', Henry VI and Edward IV, sitting 'quietly together'.
The guidebooks and accounts do not give many clues about the armour worn by the pre-1827 representation of Henry VI. The early 19th century illustrations also do not help. However we know that in 1827 Samuel Meyrick, the armour expert employed to re-display the Horse Armoury more accurately, used the armour formerly worn by the figure of Henry VI for George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham. Meyrick retained a figure of Henry VI in the New Horse Armoury, equipping it with mail and plate armour, and a bardiche, or 'huge battle-axe'.
We also believe we can identify the wooden head used on Henry VI's figure in the Line of Kings. It is one of the heads carved and painted in about 1690 but it has since been stripped of its paint.
Henry VI is represented in the present Line of Kings display by the bardiche with which his figure was armed from 1827 and the wooden head which probably formed part of his figure.

That's fantastic! It has such movement and the colors are great. Finish it. You'll be happy and if not, I'll take it!
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
That's fantastic! It has such movement and the colors are great. Finish it. You'll be happy and if not, I'll take it!
It's a modern day approach. I like it, not another one like it. You have made up a new trend.
OK it is different than a typical log cabin. However, creativity was used and to me it looks creative, colorful and most important a fine artistic work of art. If you want to put it away, I'll be most happy to take this beautiful problem off your hands quilt it and put it on my bed.
Create something beautiful from scraps.
Get it finished its lovely - beautiful colours and design
Are you kidding????????? It's already stunning...the right quilting and it will be a show stopper! Don't stop now!!
I quilt, therefore I am.
WOW! I love it! Quilt it! love it! Its great!
Very cool, actually!
love this!! please post photos when it's quilted
That is wonderful, I love it, great job and thank you for sharing
Have a Blessed day
Personally, I love all the myriad log cabin designs available--------even new ones you invent!

Been a while since I posted, though I read advogato regularly. Still working on why that is. My life is a mess in some ways, not bad in others... and maybe I'm just not the journaling type.
9-11 events:
Simply put, while the event is shocking, my opinion of the media and the masses are confirmed sadly. I am more saddened by the rampant patriotic bullshit and lack of awareness than anything else, even the deaths themselves.
I have relatives in NY, and yes, thankfully none of them were hurt. Yes, I was scared, and if one of them had been hurt, I'd be a mess right now. No argument there.
And yes, the pain and grief and terror and rage are driving people right now. Feeling all of that is good. Acting from that is not. There is a difference.
I had no hope for this country, even before this mess happened, and I see nothing to change my mind: The US is screwed up in so many many ways and it's unlikely to change.
ESR voices a valid if unpopular opinion, and he's personally attacked for it. Fuck all of you who did so.
Bush and others are willing and wanting to go to war, regardless of the realities or even the logic of such. Fuck that.
Flag waving patriots who think that "America" really means something good and true these days: Wake up, or you continue to earn the stupid American image. Fuck the flag and learn the truth about what the rest of the world thinks about ugly American involvements. We are not innocents.
CNN, and the rest of the media (with the exception of BBC for some odd reason): plastic propaganda machines, all of you.
Heroes? Yes, there are heroes. Flight 93's brave passengers who probably saved many lives, even while losing their own in the process. Firefighters and policemen who rushed into burning buildings to rescue people, buildings whose exits should have be fixed the first time a tragedy happened there and weren't. All of the people who are giving time and energy to pick up the pieces and breathe smoke and sweat for hours. Those are the heroes, and nobody will argue that, will they?
Anyone who picks up a gun or a bomb and goes to kill someone 'responsible'? Not a hero. Not in my book, and shouldn't be in anyone else's either. Feel free to disagree. Many do. But if you so value the 'freedoms' we have, you cannot argue that my voice isn't as valid as yours. Freedom to voice the unpopular view is one of the most important of freedoms.
Now, watch the powersthatbe shut down encryption, privacy, and myriad other freedoms, all in the name of 'peace' and 'justice'. I won't join conspriracy theorists who wonder if the US had a part in the attacks, but it wouldn't surprise me to one day learn that someone knew something was going to happen, decided there was no point in warning people because they couldn't stop it happening eventually, and decided that a huge horrible event was just what they needed to let them take charge the way they wanted to all along.
To end this, I'll quote Niven's law:
F x S = k. The product of Freedom and Security is a constant. To gain more freedom of thought and/or action, you must give up some security, and vice versa. These remarks apply to individuals, nations, and civilizations. Notice that the constant k is different for every civilization and different for every individual.
We have people in charge who don't care about F at all. F them.

There is a new listing on ebay. If you live near Canton, OH, this is something to consider! Just thought someone might be interested. Being a "techno-weenie" I don't know how to post a link, but check it out!
Is this it? http://www.ebay.com/itm/HUGE-LOT-SIN...item4171d51da2
Not far from me, but what would I do with all that!
wow lot of sewing machines. sorry to here that her husband passed. i see a lot of work to get them in selling order. but there is a lot that are in working order. good price for all. i think...:)
TeeHee, I want a new machine but had something a bit more computerized than that!!!
Wow!! I sure wished I lived closer. I'd buy those in a heartbeat. Don't know what I'd do with them, but I'd sure get them. LOL
If I had a shop, and some extra cash, I'd go for those. That lot would keep me busy for quite a while.
Did you see the yellow irons?
I don't "need" any more machines either except for a black long-bed 301 and a 201. After that I will devote my time and energy into reducing the stash so I don't put my DH in the same situation as this poor widow, except my collection is mostly fabric!
Wow. Looks like Heaven to me.
Wow! That looks like a fun collection. I don't think she has the Featherweights she thinks, unless I looked at the picture wrong before I've had enough coffee!
I didnt know where to post because I'm brand new to the site I can create a topic but here it goes...
Hello everyone I am new to this community and a brand new quilter. Im in the process of finishing my first lap quilt.
I have made this quilt with a Kenmore sears machine (http://www.etsy.com/listing/10928622...g-machine-with) I love my machine and only paid $25 for it. I love it so much that much I sold my newer basic singer because it just didn't cut it, it game me too much trouble.
Anyway I have 2 older machines as well that I purchased one of them is a singer 560 Diana and I paid $50 for it but it came with the original and an amazing table for it and in very good condition...anyways I sold the table (which I regret) due to lack of space and now my Diana wont work the same it has a tension problem that I just cant fix (http://possumjimandelizabeth.com/xht...g_sing560.html) my other machine is a White 764 http://mivintagesewingmachines.blogs...white-764.html and I have not been able to use it either. First one of the tension pieces was broken so I got a new one and replaced it but something was off and when I tried to pull it out I messed up the spring, stretched it and now its nou usable. I plan to get them fixed eventually but my question is that with all this old machines there is something that can go wrong and may need some repair sooner than later. I am interested on another oldie and I just love it. Its a Singer 66 and it comes with the table and stool, seem in pretty rough condition but the machine supposedly works fine except that the tension may need adjustment ..go figure lol anyhow I really want this machine and my question is....is it really worth $50 or should I try to get it for less? The person selling it has never used it. She had the machine in storage and it belonged to her mom.

Missoula air officials monitor air quality as Frenchtown-area fire spreads
MISSOULA, Mont. - The following is a press release from the Missoula City-County Health Department:
Good afternoon,
The wildfire currently burning in Frenchtown put out an impressive plume of smoke this afternoon. The fire grew quickly and is currently at around 100 acres, headed east. Residents near the fire and those north and east of the fire are likely being exposed to smoky conditions, and should use visibility guidelines to help determine particulate concentrations and associated health advisories. Due to the southwesterly breeze currently on the fire, the smoke has not hit our monitors in Frenchtown or Missoula. You can smell the smoke in Missoula, but it is still staying quite high above our heads. Air quality in Missoula is currently Good to Moderate. That may change tonight as temperatures cool. We can also see a smoky haze on the western and southern horizons thanks to fires burning in Idaho.
Here is this afternoon's web update:
July 25, 2013
As of 4PM Thursday, air quality in Missoula, Frenchtown and Seeley Lake is Good to Moderate. However, this afternoon's fire in Frenchtown is sending considerable amounts of smoke to the northeast. Evaro, Arlee and the Wye are likely seeing some of the Frenchtown smoke. You can smell the smoke in Missoula, but it's currently getting a nice lift up and out of our breathing space. However, as the evening cools down it will likely fall down to the valley floors. Also, a shift in winds could deliver more of that smoke to Missoula. Overnight and this morning, we may see conditions that become Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups or worse. You can also still see smoke on the western and southern horizons courtesy of the fires burning in Idaho.
There are several fires burning in Idaho across from the Bitterroot Valley, and they will likely send smoke our way as wildfire season continues to play out. The Gold Pan, Crescendo and Californian Point fires continue to grow. The Crescendo and California Point fires are smaller, but are sending smoke straight in our direction. The Gold Pan fire may send smoke into the Bitterroot. Missoula County typically receives smoke from the Bitterroot, so we'll be keeping an eye on the smoke levels to the south.
Fire danger is currently Very High in Missoula County, and firefighters are busily stomping out small fires that are popping up around the region in addition to the large grass fire in Frenchtown. Residents should be aware that fires will likely continue to pop up, and smoke conditions can change rapidly change with increased fire activity.
If smoke does reenter the valley, local conditions may become Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups or worse. Residents should monitor their reactions to the smoke and limit exposure/physical exertion if they are sensitive to the smoky conditions.
Because smoke conditions can change rapidly based on location, wind, fire flare ups and proximity to fires, the department encourages individuals to use visibility as a guideline to help gauge air quality at a given time and place and take appropriate precautions.
This morning's satellite photo shows fires actively burning in Idaho and sending smoke our direction.
This web page is not updated on weekends or holidays unless air quality becomes Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups or worse. Call the air quality hotline at 258-3600 on weekends to get the most current air quality update.

The Rattler is a battery powered, multi-faceted, multi-pronged dildo commonly used in the Yucca Valley area of California. It gets its namesake from the rattlesnake sounds it makes when it is turned on. One "prong" is shaped like the head of a snake. It also has a tail-like feature that resembles a rattle snake tail. The components are made out of latex, aluminum, and wood. The Rattler can support up to three people using it at once. The Rattler is gaining popularity in Los Angeles.
The Rattler looks like a two-prong dildo, one side has a snake head for the tip and also has a rattlesnake tail protruding from the other side.

text: As the hives available here have a small bee entrance opening, I tried a few open feeders, but see bees getting drowned. I tried something different, a plastic sheet (ziploc cover) with holes floating on sugar syrup in a pot. The bees can sit on top of the sheet and drink, but needs to be perfected as there is still gaps when the sheet goes down. I am unable to attach pictures here...the icon doesn't seem to work.
