Rated 4 out of 5 by Heidismiles from Great spice rack This is a great spice rack! Nice design and a good use of space. I was slightly disappointed that there was only one type of sifting cap included (it's the kind with small holes for finely ground spices.) But I found out that Spice Islands brand spices have caps that fit these jars perfectly. (I'm sure there are other brands too). So you can use the caps from their red pepper flakes or something similar. Recommendation for product update: Include ~5 extra caps that have larger holes!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Robert2990 from Great Storage for Spices I cook and enjoy using a good number of spices. My cupboard was a jungle of bottles of different sizes. I could never find the particular spice that I needed without a search which might result in my emptying my cupboard. This spice rack is a great solution. It takes some effort to transition to the new bottles but it is well worth it. Now I am able to spot the spice I need at a moment's glance.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Wants2BOrganized2 from Looks Beautiful Loved the product, but more than that I loved the customer service. I don't live near the container store, but had purchased the item based on the display. When I arrived home and pulled the product out of the box one of the little glass jars was in pieces. The store immediately sent a replacement jar, which arrived two days later. The jars themselves aren't fragile and the box was in good condition. The shattered glass was a middle one. I think it must have been a fluke at the factory.

Rated 4 out of 5 by valelaine from Good product/missing a component Love the spice rack. Sits right next to my stove and everything is easily within reach. Was able to alphabetize spices. Unfortunately, my box was missing the adhesive labels. So I had to grab some from the office supply store. They weren't the same size, but they did the job. Hoping that was just a glitch with my box.

Rated 3 out of 5 by maryl from Good but could be better I like the design. The bottles don't get knocked over and the labels are easy to see. I have this hanging on my pantry wall. I like the glass bottles, but I find the plastic tops difficult to open for larger spices. The holes on the plastic caps are a little smaller than on the name brand spice containers in the store. That is good for fine spices, not so for larger spices such as parsley. I know I can leave the plastic caps off, but I wish the caps came with a tab that lifts up allowing more spice to come out such as on many bought spices. I don't want to have to spoon out spices.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Nightnurse1 from Acrylic 20 Bottle spice rack I have been looking everywhere, in stores and online, for a spice rack that takes up little space yet holds a lot of spices. This fills the bill nicely! I bought 2 of them, and have them standing on my counter top, near the stove, beautifully alphabetized for convenience. They look nice, take up very little counter top real estate, and are so quick and easy to use. Very happy! There was one broken bottle upon delivery, and customer service had the replacement at my doorstep almost immediately. I love that the jars are glass rather than plastic, and they appear to be air tight, which has been a problem with other storage systems. I am totally pleased!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Eimcontained from Solid Spice Rack This spice rack met my expectations. It is very sturdy and can be hung up but I use it on my countertop. I like that the design is simple and colorless; it's subtle. The jars themselves are sturdy and of adequate size. I was able to throw away most of the manufacturers' spice containers after I transferred the spices. The end result was more space and neatly organized spices that are easy to access while cooking.

Rated 5 out of 5 by angeldylanluke from LOVVVVVVVING my Spice Racks!!!! I love to cook.......but I have such a small house and my spice bottles were LOST in the cabinets. Didn't make it much fun sometimes searching for things or buying something I KNEW I had but couldn't find. I bought two of these spice racks, and as you can see from the picture, I only have a few more to fill!!!!! I have a label maker and made my own labels for the things that didn't come pre-printed.....wanted it to look the same. Not perfect, but not totally obnoxious either! Oh yea, and my OCD has me putting them in alphabetical order.

Rated 4 out of 5 by ChefGL from Great Pruduct I had installed a small wood slat to the top of the side of our refrigerator, and the rack screwed onto that easily. Because the rack tilts slightly to the back at the bottom, bottles stay in snugly and are easy to see and remove. Great space saver; you might need a sllightly larger area for other spices you use a great deal such as salt & pepper and sugar.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Blessed6 from The most user-friendly spice rack I've found! This rack has everything! I could choose my own spices matching the pre-printed lables provided, and I used the blank labels for additional personal favorites. The bottles hold enough to make them useful, and the rack fits anywhere: countertop, cupboard, or hung on the wall. I cook a lot, so my husband gave me TWO racks for Christmas and they stand side by side against the wall under my cupboards. 40 spices take up almost no counter space!!! I just bought one for my mother, who loves it too. Makes cooking so enjoyable!

Rated 5 out of 5 by malkinson from Purchased Two I bought one of these for my mom last year and she loved it. Since then she started to bake more and I bought a second one for her additional spices. They are great space savers, hold plenty of the spice to get rid of most jars or to leave only a few for topping off the small containers. This makes the spices super easy to get to and the jars are easy to clean.

Rated 5 out of 5 by funandedgy from Spices in Order Was tired of miscellaneous sized spice bottles I had so I transferred the spice contents into this organized spice rack. Can sit on counter upright or can be attached to wall.

Rated 5 out of 5 by nh320 from keeps my spices organized! I looked quite awhile and finally decided to go with this for my kitchen spices. I like how it's easy to clean and see all of the spices easily. The only downside is that the bigger bottles of spices will still leave you with some left over. Otherwise, they've been a great investment.

Rated 3 out of 5 by KimberAWB from Nice, but small containers I bought this to hold all my spices and to get a little more organized. Unfortunately the jars are too small to fit the whole bottle of spices, so now I have 2 bottles per spice. However it is a nice construction

Rated 5 out of 5 by Alierose from My husband loves it! I got this for my husband for a Valentines gift, he loves to cook and our old spice rack had a bunch of broken bottles and it was just un-organized. He loves it this spice rack, the bottles are a great size and there were so many labels he now feels he needs another rack to add more spices. :) It fits perfectly into our cabinet and we are able to put things behind it and still can see whats back there because the rack is see through. Over all, love it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by maureeng from Perfect spice Storage My foodie son has 50+ spices and needed a way to organize them better than what he had which was a wire multi-level over the door hanger unit that was too small for his needs. Plus since there were two rows of bottles on each level, the first row of spices hid the names of the second row of bottles so sometimes it took him awhile to find the spice he was looking for. I looked at all the stores in my area and the Internet until I found these sturdy racks at The Container Store. These strong, thick acrylic units are "single spaced" and hold 20 bottles each. Since I bought him 3 racks, he'll have room for a little bit of expansion. The racks can be mounted on the back of a door, on a wall or they are thin enough to sit out of the way at the back of his counter space which is where he plans on putting them. He loves them and I feel that not only were they what he needed but they were also the best quality of all the racks I looked at.

Rated 5 out of 5 by sushi from I love this. I used to have an entire shelf of my cabinet filled with a jumble of spices that made it difficult to find any (or to remember to use my less common spices). Now they're beautifully organized and labeled, so my shelf is now available for other uses, and it's much easier to use all my spices. Only two minor problems: the jars are a little smaller than your typical spice jar, so you may have a little of the spice leftover, and I would love it if they provided more of the blank labels, since most of my spices are not the typical spices that they include on the printed labels. Otherwise, I really love it!

Rated 4 out of 5 by kicki22 from Great spice rack that finally met my goals I've been searching for a spice rack for about four years now. I don't have a lot of cabinet space and while I'd prefer to keep my spices closer (like in a kitchen drawer near my stove), I just don't have space for that. With that said, I really don't want to use valuable counter space or other space for a spice rack. I also didn't want to waste money (or spices) on a pre-filled rack as most of those don't include the types of spices I wanted or used. As I walked through our Container Store once again looking for a spice rack, I happened upon this one and it seemed to meet all of my goals. When I got it home, it was easy to load the spices into the jars and the included, pre-printed labels worked great for my more common spices. I hand printed with a sharpie on the blank labels for my spices that were less common. I'm about ready to go buy a second one of these as one wasn't enough for my whole spice collection. The photo I've included shows the filled spice rack hanging on the wall in my pantry.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Rachel645 from Great Spice Rack! I already owned a bunch of spices and this spice rack was a great way to store them in my pantry. Plus, I love the clean look. The bottles are a tad too small to fit a full spice bottle, but the smaller half size bottles (like the ones that cream of tartar and ground mustard come in) fit perfectly. These are also great if you purchase spices in bags or in bulk. I liked it so much, I bought a second one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MontanaBorn from Spices Finally Perfectly Organized I LOVE my new spice racks. I purchased 3, so now all of my spices are always in order and within easy reach. Never again will I have to go through, trying to find the ones I need for my recipes. I love having them all in uniform order, too.

Judge: Employee comp meals tax free, rewards club meals taxable
March 2, 2013
Casinos don't owe sales or use taxes on complimentary meals they give employees but must pay taxes on the comp meals given to customers for points earned in their player rewards club, Carson District Judge Todd Russell ruled Friday.There is about $18 million in taxes involved in the Harrah's case — the lion's share of that in the rewards club portion, Senior Deputy Attorney General Blake Doerr said."Employee meals are not subject to the sales tax, in this court's opinion," Russell said in his ruling.He said they would be if they constituted a "retail sale," but that in his opinion, they don't.Russell instead said they "really are a benefit to employees."Meals given to regular players, he said, are a different matter."The state is allowed to collect sales tax on a rewards program," he said. Such programs "are a direct exchange" for player participation and marketing information, so they should be subject to sales tax, Russell said.The Harrah's lawsuit is one of more than a dozen by casino operators statewide, Doerr said. Four are still in district court and one — involving the Boyd casinos — is at the Nevada Supreme Court. The rest, he said, are still in the Department of Taxation's administrative process.Outside, lawyer John Bartlett, who represents casinos in most of the other lawsuits, said it was the same ruling he received in the suit on behalf of Boyd casinos. If the ruling stands, he said, casinos will have to pay millions of dollars.Doerr argued that the consideration that qualifies a meal as taxable "doesn't have to be a cash transfer.""It just has to be something of value," he said.Lawyer Norm Azevedo said on behalf of Harrah's that neither employee meals nor rewards card meals for patrons constitute a retail sale because there is no transfer of consideration. He also argued that the Department of Taxation isn't going after businesses that provide coffee, soft drinks and even sandwiches to workers.Doerr said the definition of a retail sale is "a sale for any purpose other than resale."Both sides are expected to appeal.

Sophomore Caleb Schreiber has filled in anywhere the Harbor Creek boys swimming team has needed him.
Schreiber was integral in the Huskies 146-23 win over Girard with four event wins. Those events were an interesting mix for the young swimmer. He won the 500 free, the 100 backstroke and was on the winning 200 medley and 400 free relay teams.
Schreiber also won the 200 IM in a loss to North East Monday and his versatility to swim various events could pay off down the line for the Huskies.

Europe Isn't Out Of The Woods Yet
There was more than a hint of schadenfreude in the voice of German Finance Minister Hans Eichel as he joined Deutsche Telekom executives in Frankfurt on Apr. 17 to celebrate the flotation of the company's T-Online Internet unit. "Europe," Eichel declared as the champagne flowed, "has the chance to replace the U.S. as the growth motor of the world." As if to underscore his point, T-Online shares defied the U.S. stock market trend and shot up 39% before the day was out.
In fact, Eichel may be right. Europeans have watched glumly for a decade as their largest economies stumbled along with double-digit unemployment and the U.S. economy relentlessly churned out new jobs. Now, Europeans feel, it's their turn, and the numbers seem to be on their side. European growth is expected to reach 3% in 2000 from about 2% in 1999, and unemployment is finally beginning to decline.
But a dip in German business confidence in March--from a five-year high--was a reminder that the recovery is still fragile. Kudos go to Eichel and German Chancellor Gerhard Schroder for finally rousing Europe's largest economy from its stupor. They're aggressively cutting taxes, dismantling barriers to restructuring, and hacking away at bureaucracy. Schroder has proposed cutting Germany's punitive 54% capital gains tax, which companies must pay when they sell their stakes in publically listed German companies. This will now allow Germany Inc. to unravel its web of interlocking cross-holdings, permitting each to focus on core competencies. Schroder has even come out in favor of letting German high- tech companies hire skilled workers from India.
But these alone won't allow Europe to match the U.S. in job production. Sustained expansion will come only after the Continent attacks structural impediments to growth. Above all, Europe must free its labor market. As harsh as it sounds, the freedom to fire increases the freedom to hire. European companies think very hard about adding staff because it's so difficult to cut back if business turns sour. But Schroder and his French and Italian counterparts are so far staying clear of this politically sensitive issue.
That must change if Europe really wants to boom. Leaders must insist on Europeans taking more responsibility for their own welfare. They have to enact significantly deeper tax cuts to promote investment. And, of course, they must free up the labor market. Germany is off to a good start. France and Italy must follow. And European leaders must realize what they have to do won't be nearly as much fun as launching a European Internet IPO and watching it rocket to the sky.

in 2007 i bought a camero SS. and i bought a warrenty through carmax on it, a few months later there was a problem with the clutch system( not the clutch plate)! there was contamination in the clutch fluid, carmax never inspected it before they sold it and the contamination blew out the master cylinder. after i would hold the clutch down all the way to the floor in a few seconds it would start engaging even with the clutch all the way down to the floor.
i spoke with a lady in buena park about this and she said they dont fix problems with clutches under warrenty, so i took it to duarte, ca and told them about buena park and they said they do fix certain problems with the clutches but that what was happening to my clutch was perfectly normal.( i found out that they would have to put out 2500 bucks for special corvett/ camero ss clutch parts) and send it to a specialist place to fix the problem,
after this i said "fine if you think there is nothing wronge with the car why don't you appraise it for a buy back", and in this eight yr old car with massive problems duarte ca carmax gave me a "wow factor" offered 18 k for it knowing i owed 22 and would cost 2500 to fix the problem( so obviously i wouldn't take the buy back since it would cost me more)
so i was so pissed i was not going to pay for a warrenty that would not fix something that was covered i asked bueana park to cancel my warrenty and refund that money to me.... carmax gladley did cancel it. when i called back a day later to complain agian carmax in buena park said that they would have covered it but since i canceled the warrenty i could no longer get it fixed regardless,
so.... i went down to carmax in irvine ca and traded my car in on a very expensive vehicle, and ejoyed it for a week... i wanted to see if thoughs super duties held up like they do in commercals, i never found out the longer term effects of racing them baja with low coolent and oil that had heavy contaminates in them but they seem to like the off road a bit.
anyway i took the truck back with in my 10 day exchange time frame and paid the difference between what carmax ridiculously overly offered for my camero,( so i wouldn't have any documentation for court on the bad condiftion of my car, because their apprasal said great condition), and what i owed unfortunatly now carmax ended up with more than one lemon, and paid about 5 grand to much for my car in an attempt to get out of a repair they should have taken care of.. i wounder if they screw with alot of young people like this?

Titanfall Xbox One Game & Limited Edition BOX One Controller+ Product Description
Bring in the Titans
Imagine: It's the future. You're caught in the middle of an epic firefight. In the thick of the action you look upwards. Out of the sky drops an enormous 24-foot-tall weaponized behemoth. And it's waiting for a pilot: you.
This is Titanfall, an intense, competitive multiplayer shooter coming this March. The team responsible honed its skills crafting the Call of Duty franchise, so yes, it's in very good hands.
It is no longer soldier vs. soldier in this first-person shooter. Titans are hugely powered and heavily armored, but teamwork and well-choreographed strategy from the Pilots can bring one down.
Pilot or Titan ... how will you dominate in Titanfall?
- Pilots vs. Titans: Do you take to the warzone on foot or do you leap into the 24-foot tall metallic monstrosity? Pilots can maneuver through the fight with acrobatic grace, but the Titans are absolutely brutal in strength and firepower.
- Multiplayer-exclusive action: Titanfall is being developed from the ground up as an online multiplayer experience—but with all the characters, story and memorable moments of single player infused.
- Produced by the Co-creators of Call of Duty: Respawn Entertainment consists of key members of the team that lived and breathed multiplayer first-person shooters for years. Titanfall accumulates that knowledge and experience and builds a brand-new take in a whole new universe.
Official Microsoft Titanfall Limited Edition Wireless Controller XBOX One
Own a piece of gaming history and fight in style with the Xbox One Titanfall Limited Edition Wireless Controller. Designed in partnership with Titanfall creator Respawn Entertainment, it's inspired by the C-101 carbine, used by the elite IMC Titan Pilots of the Frontier.

I went to the dealership to have several items repaired this morning. The dealership clearly exceeded my expectations:
1. Heated Steering Wheel - not working
2. Keyless entry works intermittently (at best) both drivers and passenger side
3. Ticking noise from the passenger side pesky purge valve?
Its rather interesting the heated steering wheel and keyless entry stopped working all around the same time.
All three items were covered under CPO. Heated Steering Wheel (in-stock no joke!), Purge valve replaced, both door handles replaced after $100 deductible - Dealer wanted ~ $293 per handle, including paint. I contacted Cadillac Customer Service to inquire whether the keyless entry/door handle would be covered under CPO. Customer Service advised it was not, since the door handle is considered trim, but they called the dealer and worked out the difference provided I agreed to pay the $100. OK, deal!
Oh, dealer found and replaced a worn front hub (thanks again CPO) and I paid for rear brakes, a 4-wheel alignment, and they cleaned the throttle body and reset the idle. Finally, CPO paid for the rental car
All of this work was completed in less than a day. I wish all of my dealership visits were this smooth

I have been using this set of monitors for just under four months and they have been the worst baby product I Havre ever used! The sound quality is atrocious, there is an abundance of static that is so bad that my little boy has been crying loudly and I haven't been able to hear him! The monitors themselves are well designed but the actual uses are very limited. They are made out of fairly low quality materials and aren't very well put together. I bought these from eBay so there's a chance… Read Full Review

I have used these monitors for 2 years now and have found them to be great. I would agree that the buzzing was a bit annoying to start with but I soon got used to it and had no problems hearing my daughter cry or even moving around. The wire on one of my units has now become exposed and so am now using batteries which don't last very long. I now intend to buy another set as they are so cheap. Excellent buy… Read Full Review

I bought this monitor after trying a BT monitor which was 10 times the price and, for me, the Tixylix monitor wins hands down. The range of the BT product was very poor - we have thick walls - and at times it seemed to have a mind of its own, often muting itself for no obvious reason (no explanation in the manual!). The Tixylix is very basic - only 2 frequencies, so best if there aren't too many other babies on the block - but the range is excellent, it is very easy to set up and the microphone… Read Full Review

This is a disgusting piece of equipment! The buzz that this machine makes is enough to keep new parents awake all night. Leave alone the fact that its impossible to hear our baby cry over the constant buzzing noise.

The Funeral Casino: Meditation, Massacre, and Exchange with the Dead in Thailand
€ 46,99
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
März 2002
Beschreibung"In bringing together an ancient Buddhist practice of meditation of the corpse with globalised technologies of massacre in Thailand, Alan Klima has written an amazing book that makes you rethink your body and the body politic. There are few interventions into Western theory that have been as productive as this breathtaking endeavor. Bataille and Benjamin will never seem the same. A stirring endorsement of anthropology as a radical discipline, this book also appeals on account of its uniquely down to earth populist style that at manic speed propels you into the crowds on the streets, the charnel house and temples, and intimate portraits of real people no less than of the sleaze of the World Bank and elites that have, as yet, to experience what Klima has experienced in meditating over the corpse."--Michael Taussig"Alan Klima's hallucinatory account of death in the streets of Bangkok and his indictment of the efforts to convert death into mere exchange value has enormous potential for the field of Thai studies, where it is likely to erupt onto the scene like a small bomb. It offers a relentless repudiation of those saccharine tropes through which Thailand has mainly been read."--Rosalind Morris

This is the first picture of a six-year-old girl died after being hit by a 4x4 as she excitedly ran across a road to see her daddy.
Tragic Lara Fernandes-Pontes was knocked down by a Landrover Discovery as she dashed out into a road where her father parked up to collect from a birthday party.
She was seriously injured at South Oxhey, Herts, yesterday afternoon and airlifted to Watford General Hospital where medics were unable to save her.
Today neighbour Carlos Alves, 51, told how Lara had been at a friend's party shortly before the accident.
He said: "The little girl had just been at a friend's party, there were lots of kids around.
"Her mum had gone inside to pick her up while her dad stayed outside in his car with other young children, possibly her brothers or sisters.
"He was parked on the other side of the road to the house, and she came running out to greet him and as she ran across the road she was hit by the car.
"It's very shocking and very, very sad. The emergency services came and then I found out she had died. It's tragic."
Lara leaves behind mother Marlene Pontes, 28, and father Andre Pontes, 29, from South Oxhey.
Today her family paid tribute to the schoolgirl and said she "created wonderful memories" during her short life.
Speaking from the family home her cousin Jessica Fernandes Oliveira, 21, said the youngster's parents were too distraught to talk.
She said: "This is devastating news for our family. Lara was like my little sister.
"She will be eternally missed and remained in my heart, forever treasuring her beautiful smile that created wonderful memories in the short time she had been with us.
"I promise to support and take care of her parents in this very difficult time. Rest in peace my little angel."
Lara's auntie Juliana Sa, 28, added: "You will be forever missed. Your godmother and little cousins love you with all their heart."
Her other aunt, Gabby Araujo, 23, said: "Your auntie will miss you very much, and I will miss her face lighting up when she was with me. "She will be forever in my heart."
Lara was attending the birthday party for her best friend when she was mowed down.
The birthday girl's mother said she was "devastated" by the death of her daughter's friend and said she may now be forced to move house to escape the haunting memories.
Speaking through tears on her doorstep, the mother, who did not want to be named, said: "We only have good things to say about her.
"She was my daughter's best friend and she was in my house all the time. "I am very shaken up by what happened and I've already spoken to the police about it.
"She was just so young. She always had a smile on her face. I might have to move because every time I open my door I am just going to see her face.
"I am devastated and I just keep thinking about her family."
A resident on the street where the tragedy occurred said he heard the screams of the youngster's mother, Marlene, 28, in the aftermath of the crash.
Steve McGregor, 26, had just returned home when the accident happened.
He said: "The mother was screaming outside when I got home and everyone was around the area.
"The ambulance landed in the field just down from where it happened and there were ambulances and police all around.
"People I have spoken to just heard a big crash and then lots of screams."
Hertfordshire police are appealing for witnesses.
Sergeant Chris Kent said: "This is a tragic loss of a young life in these circumstances.
"The family are being supported by specialist officers at this difficult time.
"The driver and the occupants of the vehicle were unharmed but obviously shaken by what happened.
"At the moment we are investigating the circumstances of the collision.
"We have spoken to a number of people at the scene and are keen to hear from anyone who witnessed what happened and has not yet spoken to officers."

If they played the Eagles more often, the Steelers might know how the Browns feel because Pittsburgh's 10-6 win at Cleveland Sunday night was their 10th straight against them. It also gave the defending AFC North champion Steelers a big leg up on the Browns team that tied them at 10-6 last season and was supposed to give them a run for their money this season.
"We're 2-0," Steelers wide receiver Ward said. "Cincinnati and Cleveland are 0-2. They have to catch up to us. It is big. Everybody picked Cleveland as the team to beat. We came on the road and won up here; it speaks volumes for our team. ... We are the division champions from last year."
Pittsburgh is in the midst of playing four out of five on the road, although Cleveland has become more like home for the Steelers, who won for the ninth time in 10 meetings since the Browns returned to the NFL.
Ward and halfback Willie Parker are off to fast starts, and in some ways both came into this season with a question mark. For Ward, it was turning 32 and having Santonio Holmes take over as the homerun threat and perhaps the go-to guy. But Ward has three touchdown receptions to tie his fastest two-game start since he tied the Steelers record with 12 touchdowns in 2002.
Then there's Parker. He ended last season with a broken fibula on his first carry in Game 15, which he entered as the NFL's leading rusher. After two games, he has 243 yards rushing on 53 carries. If it wasn't clear before the season, two items are now: Parker is back in top form and rookie Rashard Mendenhall will have to wait to get a good number of carries in the Steelers offense.
Mendenhall carried 10 times for 28 yards in a mopup role in Pittsburgh's opening 38-17 victory against Houston, but he did not enter the game on offense in Cleveland.
"When your number gets called, you have to make plays," Parker said.
Also back in top form is safety Troy Polamalu. He missed five games last year, played through injuries in others and for the first time he did not have a sack or an interception during the season. He has two interceptions in two games, his most recent near the goal line to prevent a Cleveland score in a four-point victory.
Polamalu also held Kellen Winslow to 55 yards on seven catches, an average of just 7.9 yards per grab.
--CB Deshea Townsend should return to start against the Eagles after he missed last Sunday's game in Cleveland with a bruised heel.
--DE Brett Keisel left Sunday's game in Cleveland in the first quarter with an injured right calf and did not return. His status for this week is unknown.
--WR Santonio Holmes, who led the NFL with an 18.1-yard average last season, is over 16 yards a catch this year but has yet to score.
--QB Ben Roethlisberger has two games over a 100 passer rating and has not thrown an interception. He has three TD passes.

NPR's CEO Vivian Schiller has resigned, reports Politico. The move comes just one day into the fallout from conservative activist James O'Keefe's latest "sting," in which an outgoing executive was recorded on tape saying that the American tea party movement is made up of "white, middle-class, America gun-toting" and "seriously racist, racist people."
The comments were made by Ron Schiller (of no relation to Vivian Schiller), who's NPR's exiting vice president for development.
"The Board accepted her resignation with understanding, genuine regret, and great respect for her leadership of NPR these past two years," board chairman Dave Edwards said in a statement, according to Politico. "I recognize the magnitude of this news and that it comes on top of what has been a traumatic period for NPR and the larger public radio community."
O'Keefe is best known as the young man who helped take down ACORN by posing as a pimp. Although ACORN was later cleared of any wrongdoing, O'Keefe's video was the lightening rod that ultimately led to the stalwart organization's demise.
This time, O'Keefe posed as a member of the fictitious organization "Muslim Action Education Center," a group that claimed to have ties with the "Muslim Brotherhood of America." O'Keefe and his accomplices met Schiller at a recent lunch.
In the video, which hit the Web on Tuesday, Schiller also says that NPR "would be better off in the long run without federal funding" and that the tea party is a movement that's "fanatically involved in people's lives", "fundamentalist Christian" and "xenophobia" and that it's been "hijacked" by the Republican party, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Dana Davis Rehm, NPR's senior vice president of marketing said on Tuesday that the organization is "appalled by comments made by Ron Schiller in the video, which are contrary to what NPR stands for." Rehm also noted that O'Keefe's phony operation tried to convince NPR to accept a $5-million check, with no strings attached, but the company repeatedly refused to accept.
All this comes as NPR battles some conservative Republicans on Capitol Hill who have been trying to strip the organization of federal support, which it receives through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Embarrassingly, Ron Schiller's comments are at odds with the organization's official position on the matter, according to the Times.
Yet Ron Schiller's claims of tea party racism aren't exactly unfounded. There have been numerous high profile instances in which so-called "fringe" members have resorted to name-calling and racist imagery. Last fall, the Institute for Research & Education released a 94 page report that found strong links between the party and white nationalist groups.

Due to worldwide criticisms over poor working conditions for its factory workers over the years, Foxconn has promised that it will do its part to ensure that its laborers will be compensated and treated fairly. Although the Fair Labor Association (FLA) has confirmed that Foxconn has complied with the majority of the agreed upon changes, a recent audit has found that Foxconn employees are still underserved in some major areas—such as the working-hour limit.
Apple, one of Foxconn's major clients, made it clear in the past that it intends to push for better working conditions for factory laborers. One of the promises being that the employees working on Apple-related products will be limited to 60 hours per week, with no more than 36 hours of overtime per month. China's labor law, however, permits workers to work just 40 hours per week, with no more than 36 hours of overtime per month.
Despite such promises by both Apple and Foxconn, some recent audits of three Foxconn factories have indicated that employees are still working beyond the allotted limit. In two of the facilities, reviewers found that workers worked between 40-60 hours every week, and in one of the factories workers were laboring for 40-70 hours per week.
On a bit of a brighter note, it seems like Foxconn has complied with 98.3 percent of the 360 action items that were agreed upon between itself, Apple, and the FLA. Also, the amount of worker representatives in the main union committees was bumped up from about 20 percent to 40 percent during the recent audit.

The Spirograph Turns Mandala Bowl and More
How adorable is all this stuff from Ninainvorm? She makes cute and colorful ceramics, screen prints, collages, and more, then sells them in her Etsy store way out in the Netherlands. Shipping is as expensive as you might imagine, but if your goal is to brighten up your environment, perhaps it's worth it?
She says: "I make these name plates as a custom order for children and grown-up loved ones. I use the most beautiful vintage plates from my large vintage plate collection and then add screenprinted images & cut the letters of the name by hand out of colourful ceramic decal paper. Then the plates are fired in my kiln on a high temperature. The result is a unique, personal, sustainable and very cheerful plate."
She says: "A beautiful medium-sized (contents: about 0.65 liter or 2/3 mugs) vintage 1960s design teapot, redecorated by me with my screenprinted lots of dots pattern in 6 colors. The vintage teapot is still in a very good condition, only some of the glazing on the handle feels a little bit rough, which isn't something visible but you can feel it a little when you rub it with your fingers."
She says: "Each set contains the six different postcards that you see on the pictures. In my other listings you can see detail pictures of the large prints that these postcards are the smaller version of."
She says: "A beautiful medium-sized (about 7.5″"/18 cm diameter) vintage plate to which I added my screenprinted spirograph image. The plate is quite old, but still in a real good condition. This plate is fired on a high temperature and is therefore fit for daily use or to put it on a wall as wall art."
As if you couldn't guess, her life is just as colorful as her creations. See more at

Writing on the ChorusAmerica website, Janet Braccio called Toensing's Evening Prayers "a deep and moving choral work with universal appeal for healing and remembrance. This lush and beautiful setting of part of the Orthodox Liturgy of Great Compline combines ethereal modal harmonies with a melody based largely on Byzantine Tone 6. Beginning quietly and rising in graceful melodic curves to a soaring climax, Evening Prayers envelopes the audience in a mood of still, worshipful awe."

From 'Cool' Solon High School, it's The Casual Fools. For their swan song debut, they've chosen three of their most heartfelt tunes. After four years of tooling around suburbia, they've decided to mark their place in Western history before perishing in a terrible ballon accident. A record to stop your heartbeat (at 33 1/3 RPM). From and for kids too lame to write math-rock.
With an album filled to the brim with songs to make you cry, it's Boys Who Cry! Actually no, it's just these folks:
Max Look: Guitar, Screaming
Sam Herman: Guitar, Crying
Dan Roberts: Drums, Physical Abuse
Joey Selvaggio: Bass, Picked up the pizza
The runoff of this 7" is engraved with the claim, "This record is trying to break your heart / Did it work?"
An emotional, passionate explosion with some really sick guitar skills. Watch out for more from these dudes who just started their own label, Home Records. D.I.Y. to the max. Lovin' it.

Santorum Suspends Campaign, Clearing Romney's Path: God Still In Control of Our Next President
Now that Rick Santorum is stepping down, we are assured God knows whom will become president of the United States, we also trust God is in control of whomever win the presidential election, later on this year. Really, we desired a president whom would follow God's Word and we thought Rick Santorum would be that sort of candidate after hearing about him visit Pastor Dennis Terry's church in Louisiana, almost 2 months ago. We were praying for a God-fearing president. However, the future of our our country is God's hands and really He has placed us as His children in control by much prayer and fasting. We are not supposed to back down, just because the future of America does not seem in our favor as Christians, but we are supposed to unite, fast and pray as we always say.

TripAdvisor Reviews Hotel Karma Kathmandu
Travel Blogs from Kathmandu
... I landed here a day and a half ago, but these are the initial pics of this magical place known as "Kathmandu". Most of these photos were taken on a bicycle rickshaw trip I took today. I love the rickshaw as a mode of transport! Motor vehicles are a curse. Simplify! Return to the state of the uncarved block. More entries will certainly follow...
(and click on the pictures to view them!)
Namaste from Nepal!!!
... it had started raining really heavily, so after a cup of tea, we stopped in for Dhruba to speak to a Sadu, a hindu guy who was able to tell his fortune for him.
Of course, it is monsoon season here at the mo, so when it rains it really rains... it kept me awake all night last night (that and the mosquito i had spotted in my room!) - today it rained while we were in the village but now it is just very hot and humid... the shower we have is cold only which ...
Day 7 - a sightseeing day!
... Phew! Although the flight was slightly delayed, we managed to take off at 7am. There were 18 seats in 2 single rows down each side of the plane, and it was very bumpy when we went through the clouds. Anyone who knows me well will know that I am not good in the air, so this was a heart stopping moment for me, especially when the woman 2 rows in front of me started to be sick...and I mean really sick!! Anyway, we made it safely through the clouds to the most ...
Well that doesn't happen every day...
... as tempting as the quick $4,000 was, I just couldn't do it. I just value my freedom too much. So it goes down as another unique experience that I will probably never have again (which I am fine with).
So my big take-away for today is to never do anything you feel you have to hide or lie about. A clean life may not always be easy in the short run, but you'll never have to worry about what happens if someone catches you.
Just be good.

Now the rain can begin in earnest here in Nepal. I hope it comes soon as the farmers are ready to plant their rice and the fields are bone dry.

A peaceful retreat
The property is exactly as presented on the web site. It's a beautiful location in a quiet valley close to the village of Locarn. The gite is fairly basic in what it provides but in line with the tariff, but it is comfortable and cosy. The steep narrow stairs and 2 single beds might not suit everyone. The TV is tiny and ancient and picks up only a selection British channels. There is no washing machine so a trip in to Carhaix-Plouger (20 minutes drive) is necessary although there is no information provided as to where you can find a laundromat. We found one just off the main street and also one next to Inter Marche. There is lots to see in this part of Brittany and nothing is too far away because the gite is very central to the 3 regions near by. The hosts (British) were very friendly and accommodating and did not impose themselves in any way. The gite was clean and presentable and the quality was 3 star but like I said, in line with the tariff. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and the old world charm of the villages is just amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here despite some shortcomings. The weather in October 14 was mainly good and some very warm days. The local markets have to be visited too for some great bargains. The local people are very friendly and were very accommodating to 2 Australians with very rusty French.

How Safe Is the Walk To School?
Laurie Terry says she worries every time she watches her kids walk away into the dark, especially when she sees a school bus pass them by. Terry says the recent murder of Somer Thompson has left her with an uneasy feeling about letting her five year-old girl and twelve year-old boy walk to school. She says she would like to take the kids to school herself, but with three more at home and no access to a car it's impossible.
"I don't ever want nobody calling saying Miss Terry we don't know where Timeria is at, she was walking with her brother and he said when he looked around she was gone." Jackie Johnson, the Public Information Officer for Alachua County Schools says the reason everyone doesn't have access to the bus is because of state laws and funding. There are 14,000 children in the Alachua County school district that live within two miles of their school and must find alternate transportation.

Broad And Patel On Target In England Win
Samit Patel took the wicket of South African opener Herschelle Gibbs as England made a winning start to the NatWest series with a 20-run victory at Headingley.
The Nottinghamshire spinner finished with 1-42 from ten overs and will challenge Graeme Swann for a place in side when the series continues at Trent Bridge on Tuesday.
Stuart Broad had Johan Botha caught on the boundary by Tim Bresnan but Andrew Flintoff and Kevin Pietersen were the standout performers with a match-winning partnership of 158.
England Captain Pietersen halied the 'phenomenal' talent of Flintoff who appears to be back to his best after his injury frustrations.
"The man is a superstar, some people are born into this world who are just superstars," said Pietersen.
"The ability Flintoff has with that cricket ball when he bowls is absolutely phenomenal.
"There's some really positive stuff happening in English cricket at the moment but there's no point getting ahead of ourselves because we start every series well," he added.
"We always win the first game and then mess the next four up. The key to this victory is to make sure we focus on Tuesday and we turn up on Tuesday with the same energy, the same buzz and the same confidence."
Tuesday's game at Trent Bridge is a complete sell-out.

Cockpit Centric Sailing
Let me preface this by saying I'm from Florida. I'm spoiled by warm tropical waters and warm weather.
That said...
Why are sailboats designed in such a cockpit centric manner? It seems like there is a lot of wasted deck space for lounging and enjoying the ride. I would love to see more designs use the deck in creative ways.
Sure there are some lines to navigate, but I have to believe a creative designer could add more comfortable seating without sacrificing performance.
What do you think?
Re: Cockpit Centric Sailing
I think it is a safety concern. It's fun to be on the foredeck during the transit down the river (back when such things were allowed*), not so much fun when the seas kick up.
To be on the foredeck at sea, you'd need to be harnessed and tethered; and that takes away a lot of the fun. Having a guest fall overboard would take all the fun away.
I'm sure some of the huge sailboats have foredeck lounges (probably with their own companionway) and I'll bet they are sunken below deck level (like the cockpit) so you have to get thrown out (can't just fall out) and then you land on the side deck and can still grab the lifeline.
Just my $.02 with no research at all.
*How did I ever survive my childhood?
Re: Cockpit Centric Sailing
Sailboats are for sailing. Powerboats are for lounging!
Seriously, sailing is about the journey and power boating is about getting there and looking good. Sailing happens in the cockpit.
Re: Cockpit Centric Sailing
It seems like a missed opportunity in boat design to me.
If I weren't trading my Harpoon 5.2 next month, I would have removed the front deck and built a wrap around cushion seating area.
Re: Cockpit Centric Sailing
I think the question is what are you going to be doing with your sailboat.
Dock queen? Sure, set up a lounge on the front, complete with wet bar. Actual sailing? Anything you put up there may end up in your way, it seems. Plus, if you make a recess on the deck for safety, then you cut into headroom belowdecks. I'm not sure there's a great way to compromise on a monohull to do what you're looking for.
Re: Cockpit Centric Sailing
Catamaran's have bow seating, they can because the jib doesn't sweep the bow on them like it does a mono.
Lounging on deck during a tack is a good way to get flogged and flapped over the side.
Re: Cockpit Centric Sailing
Should have put a few smiles in my previous post. Did not want to come off so serious:o:D:o
Re: Cockpit Centric Sailing
I think you need to get into the bigger boats to really get deck space. The thing is.. most smaller boats are what you would call "flush decked" this makes them not only livable below deck, but much more seaworthy than a more open boat would be at their size.
For instance.. this is Charlotte.. a 50foot schooner that was built and sails out of martha's vinyard. As you can see, she has plenty of deck space for being forward under sail.. but in anything more than calm seas, it is going to be a wet ride.
Re: Cockpit Centric Sailing
The deck monkeys, er er crew, are not to lounge. They are to tack, gybe, grind, and keep my glass topped up.
Just sayin'
Re: Cockpit Centric Sailing
Conditions permitting, we use every inch of the deck. There's almost always someone lounging against the cabin side on the weather deck. Of course, most of the crew is 6 ft tall or better so the cockpit can be all knees and elbows pretty quick.

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
So i paid this guy Josh Nichoson (extremeseotools owner) for xrumer VPS and he said the account will be setup as soon as the payment is done, after i paid, he messaged me saying that he can't allow me to use the VPS for some reason and refund will be done. I waited 1 month and checked my cc statement and no refund was issued. I emailed him again and he made 100 excuses and the refund was finally done after another 20 days.
I paid him with my credit card, and asked him to cancel my subscription. 5 days ago i saw another charge made by these guys to my credit card and then i emailed him , got no reply till now! He got my credit card information and is not even cancelling my subscription. I am thinking of doing a chargeback which i have never done before.
Can i report his company somewhere so that he can't steal other clients credit card info and charge them anytime he likes?
Also i would like everyone on black hat world to be aware of this scam. He will take your money, cancel your account and also charge you every month for it.
I now noticed he has popped up about 15 other companies doing the same scam.
