Poland's LOT Leases Airbus A330 in Waiting for Boeing 787 ReturnRobert Wall
Polish airline LOT, the first European airline to receive Boeing Co. 787 Dreamliners, is leasing an Airbus SAS A330 to operate transatlantic flights as the U.S. aircraft remains barred from commercial service.
The A330 is being leased from Portugal's Hi Fly and will fly for LOT from April 12 to the end of May, by which time the Warsaw-based carrier hopes 787s will return to service, airline spokesman Marek Klucinski said by phone. If Dreamliner operations remain suspended, the lease can be extended, he said.
LOT has taken delivery of two of eight 787s with one stranded in Chicago after its inaugural transatlantic flight and the other parked in Warsaw. The disruption is costing LOT, which is surviving on state aid, around $50,000 per day, Tomasz Balcerzak, chief of operations, has said.
The A330 will be used on flights from Warsaw to New York and Chicago, LOT said in a statement. The aircraft, which will be operated partly by LOT crew, can accommodate 18 passengers in business class and 288 in economy.
LOT said it will seek compensation from Boeing for costs associated with the 787 delay. Those negotiations will resume once the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration has decided when the jet can return to service.
The FAA grounded the global 787 fleet after incidents involving the aircraft's lithium-ion battery produced by Tokyo-based GS Yuasa Corp. Boeing conducted a flight test to validate a proposed battery fix on March 25 and Chief Executive Officer Jim McNerney said today in Washington D.C. that commercial operations would resume soon.
Boeing used a third LOT 787, which has yet to be handed over to the carrier, for this week's test.

Open PC: KDE Nettop with Amarok and Firefox
The Open PC Project wants to construct a fair priced PC for Linux users. The results of a first survey have now been published.
The man behind Open PC is Frank Karlitschek, maintainer of several websites for desktop users and developers (kde-apps.org, gnome-apps.org, opendesktop.org etc.) and also a board member at the current KDE Akademy. Aim of the project is the mass-production of Linux machines which can be sold at a reasonable price. Some of the sales revenues will flow back to those software vendors whose products are chosen for the project.
To decide which software is to be preinstalled on the system and which hardware is principally interesting for the scheme, the Open PC Project held a survey in July and has now published the results. A nettop system (with a netbook to follow), KDE desktop, Firefox browser and Amarok media-player were the most popular choices of the survey. The decision to go with a nettop instead of a notebook was taken against the voting because, according to Open PC, the project should be realized by November this year, and a notebook would take a lot longer.
About half of voters described themselves as inexperienced users with around 40% saying they considered themselves to be experienced. A surprising 48.3% of votes favored KDE as standard desktop with 42.7% for Gnome. The complete results can be found on the project homepage. A second survey has been started dealing with the issues of support, documentation and purchasing interest.

Yamaha's Affordable R-S201 2-channel Receiver Introduces Hi-Fi Music Enjoyment to a Whole New Audience
|Yamaha R-S201 2-channel Receiver
BUENA PARK, Calif., October 1, 2013 — Yamaha today introduced the R-S201, a 2-channel receiver that delivers the exceptional Hi-Fi sound quality for which the company has long been known. Designed for a wider audience than ever before, the RS-201 features Yamaha's signature Natural Sound concept and high sound quality circuit design, along with a powerful 100 watts per channel to reveal every detail of recording artists' performances. The R-S201 will be available this month for a consumer friendly MSRP of $179.95.
Yamaha created the Hi-Fi audio category in 1954 with the introduction of its first high fidelity turntable. As a long-standing leader in professional audio, musical instrument, and home entertainment products, Yamaha believes it is in a unique position to offer an affordable 2-channel receiver to consumers who may not have considered, or thought they could afford, premium audio gear for their homes.
"The R-S201 is designed to reintroduce the Hi-Fi audio concept to a wider audience that is listening to compressed music files on mobile devices for convenience," said Bob Goedken, general manager, Yamaha Corporation of America, AV Division. "While portability has its benefits, the R-S201 is for those who want to really connect with their favorite artists, perhaps via lossless music files, when listening in their homes."
The R-S201 employs Yamaha's Natural Sound concept that embodies scrupulous care in circuit design and overall construction. This approach effectively reproduces all genres of music as it was recorded by the artists in the studio or on the stage.
Maintaining the look and feel of a traditional audiophile component, the R-S201 has a simple, yet sophisticated design. Its elegant hairline finish and uncluttered positioning of knobs and buttons harmonize beautifully with other Hi-Fi equipment.
The R-S201 has 40 station FM/AM tuning, a speaker selector and speaker terminals to supply audio to two rooms, an easy-to-use remote control and a headphone terminal for private listening.

- Join us in our efforts! Learn about how to become an IRMA Subscriber.
The Initiative for Responsible Mining Assurance (IRMA) is establishing a multi-stakeholder and independently verifiable responsible mining assurance system that improves social and environmental performance.
The IRMA Vision
Mining is a complex and intensive process that causes environmental and social change no matter where it occurs. IRMA's vision is that of a world in which the mining industry respects human rights and the aspirations of affected communities; provides safe, healthy and respectful workplaces; avoids or minimizes harm to the environment; and leaves positive legacies.
IRMA Fundamentals
- The IRMA Standard is targeted at industrial-scale mines. IRMA collaborates with initiatives for responsible small-scale and artisanal mining.
- IRMA works across all locations, commodities and mine types. However, IRMA does not provide assurance for oil, gas, uranium and other energy fuels.
- IRMA collaborates with other sustainability standards initiatives for the extractives sector to provide complete solutions for certification, traceability and labeling.
The IRMA Mission
To establish a multi-stakeholder and independently verified responsible mining assurance system that improves social and environmental performance.
IRMA Background
Founded in 2006 by a coalition of nongovernment organizations, businesses purchasing minerals and metals for resale in other products, affected communities, mining companies, and trade unions, IRMA is developing standards for environmental and social issues related to mining, including labor rights, human rights, indigenous peoples and cultural heritage, conflict response, pollution control and site closure; and it is developing a system of independent, third-party verification to enable mine sites to credibly demonstrate that they are operating in a manner that is consistent with healthy communities and environments, and that leaves positive long-term legacies.
IRMA is planning to beta test its certification system in 2017. Mine sites participating in the beta test phase of IRMA's development will be eligible for certification. Learn more about IRMA's responsible mining certification.
Impacts of Mining
Modern societies rely on mining, minerals and metals to function. Nearly everything in the built environment – from buildings to roads to computers and trains – contains materials extracted from the Earth's surface.
Mining is a complex and intensive process that causes environmental and social change no matter where it occurs. Mining-related disruptions impact the physical environment (through, for instance, loss of habitat and contamination of surface and ground waters) and local communities (through, for instance, displacement of livelihoods and cultural impacts).
Responsible Mining
Although some degree of disturbance is inevitable even in the best-managed mines, and in some cases 'no mining' may be the best option, we believe that most negative social and environmental impacts are avoidable if companies operate according to the best possible standards. Elements of such responsible mining practices include:
Mine location. Mine owners and operators need to carefully weigh land and resource use options and preserve ecologically and culturally significant areas.
Environmental management. Where possible, mining operators need to reduce the environmental impact from habitat loss and pollution during all stages of mine development.
Workers and affected communities. This includes issues related to the free, prior and informed consent of indigenous peoples for mining, health and safety provisions, and sharing benefits more broadly.
Corporate governance. Mine operators need to ensure transparency in revenue payments from companies to governments and report on progress made toward implementing responsible practices.
The IRMA Standard
The Standard for Responsible Mining is an integral piece of the IRMA certification system. It outlines a set of best-practice requirements that were developed and are being revised through multi-stakeholder processes. IRMA encourages mining companies to adhere to these responsible mining practices, and to demonstrate compliance by participating in IRMA's independently verifiable responsible mining assurance system.
A first draft of the Standard was released for public comment in July 2014. A second draft of the Standard for Responsible Mining was released in April 2016. The IRMA Secretariat is now working on revisions to the Standard based on stakeholder input.

BIZ BEAT: Duo anniversaries celebrated at Wolbers-Possehn in Belding
IONIA — When Tina Possehn and Greg Wolbers tied the knot in 1994, it was as much a business merger as it was a wedding. All these years later, they both still consider it a match made in heaven.
Tina had been running Possehn Pools, a company established in 1976 that she inherited from her parents; Greg was owner of Wolbers Landscaping, which he had been running since 1988. It didn't take long before they realized the two businesses could offer more services and run more efficiently if they merged.
The couple recently celebrated their time in business together and the anniversaries of both businesses — 25 years for Wobers and 35 for Possehn — with a ribbon cutting ceremony at their retail outlet at 1276 N. State St. in Ionia. Employees, friends and many long term, loyal customers were invited.
The celebration continues with a five-day sale starting May 6 and culminating with the business' popular Pool School event May 11.
The Pool School has proven very popular in the past, according to store administrative assistant Crystal Townsend.
"We're having a great sale all week leading up to the Pool School," Townsend said. "At the Pool School, we teach people how to maintain their pools and what to check for when their are problems. We give them some very good educational tools."
There's also plenty of activities for adults and kids, such as coloring stations, seed planting activities, a bounce house and plenty of free food. There is no charge for the event.
Since merging the businesses, Wolbers-Possehn is able to create stunning in-ground pools, ponds and surrounding landscapes from the ground up. According to general manager Nicholas J. DiOrio, he's personally designed several installations.
"I'm about 50-50 in the office and on site," DiOrio said. "I'm proud of the work we do."
The company performs installations throughout West Michigan, including in Grand Rapids, Lansing, Battle Creek, Kalamazoo, Okemos, Greenville and other communities.
"We do everything from the design to the finished product," Townsend said. "We can build from your imagination and then just go from there and take it all the way through to the finish. We have some very talented and dedicated people."

Tee Off On Two of Texas's Most Talked-About Greens
Bookended by the Houston skyline and panoramic views of the country, the Highlands and Lakes courses of Wildcat Golf Club -- rated 8.8 and 9.3 out of 10 respectively by Texas Outdoor -- are awe-inspiring and with this deal, awfully affordable:
• $189 ($1,015 value) for five rounds of golf and ten one-hour lesson clinics with a PGA pro
• Choose either the Highlands or Lakes Course for your five rounds
• Each of the ten clinics are with Matt Swanson's School of Golf, held on weekends
• School features state-of-the-art teaching studio and PGA teaching pros
• Texas Outdoor called the Highlands course "a must play"
Why You'll Love Wildcat
These two courses are trapped in the very essence of Houston -- designed by Roy Case to both feature skyline views and to take advantage of the Hill Country topography, Wildcat has become the preferred club of Houston pro sport teams and amateur area golfers alike. The Highlands spans 6,954 yards, with its marquee characteristic being its concentration-breaking beauty, while the Lakes course tops out at 7,016 yards and brings water into play on seven holes. Best of all, despite their top-notch offerings and a mention in Avid Golfer magazine's list of top ten luxury courses, both fairways still impress with that most Texan of traits -- old-fashioned hospitality.

What do you think happened to the 400 days characters when they went with tavia? In my game everyone went with tavia, do you think they got screwed over? I'm confused on how they will make an appearance in EP2 hm.. Theories anyone?
I think Telltale said that they will make an appearance. I hope that they'll not die in 1 chapter or so...
Would be a twist if the group that went with Tavia got screwed over, while the ones that stayed behind remained safe and sound.
Then we'd have to argue which one was the true perfect ending, hm?
Knowing Telltale...
That would explain why they seemed to make Bonnie the least likable character in appearance and backstory.
You know, since Bonnie is the only one who goes with Tavia no matter what, it would make sense to auto-kill the least liked character first. Though I don't think Telltale would do that. If Tavia's group is the group that gets fucked over(if either group gets fucked over) I think Telltale would allow us to keep all of the group back away from Tavia.
The fact that at least one of the characters HAS to go with Tavia probably means that at least one has to go with her so they can influence the plot in some way. That may also mean that the group that stays behind will not influence the plot, or at least not much.
Knowing this game I don't expect any of them to survive but I hope we get time to explore their stories.
My idea is that either you only meet the ones in the comunitty or you met everyone. If you met everyone I guess the ones who stayed at the camp will only make kind off an appearence as part of a group before dying, you can evne interact with them for a while but they die in one episode. About the ones at the communitty I'm guessing you met them all BUT then you have to decide who you survive (like 1 or 2), problably just one since you may play it the way that only Bonnie gos to the camp... The fact that Bonnie allways goes to the camp can be some indicator or not, we'll see
I've seen screenshots of people who managed to get her to not go to the camp. It's just that 99% of the choices result in her going, not sure on what dialog option makes her not go. Who knows, possibly even a bug.
I don't think so. What ever they did was probably a hacked game screen or edited with Photoshop or something similar.
I thought I remembered having a playthrough of everyone staying behind at camp including Bonnie, but I tried to replay it a couple of times and get her to stay, no go.
id literally be pissed if all 400 days characters die if they went with tavia bc in my game tHEY ALL WENT
Thet can't kill all of them, I hope. And I don't want them to be just victims in this season two. Anyway what about characters that remaind at the camp? Will be there a possibility to find them? I hope so, but I think we would find their dead bodies or zombies
Personally I don't think it makes a difference. I have 2 saves. 1 in which all my characters go with Tavia and the other where they all stay except for Bonnie as no matter what she goes either way. Basically i don't think it matters, I'd say they all end up at Tavia's somehow like they could change their mind or something and all I think will change is a bit of dialogue if you left some back at the camp. Sadly there is no story branching but it be incredibly awesome if they did one day
I think my group was about a 50/50 split between Tavias group and staying. So whatever happens should be interesting to see. I'm thinking that Tavias group is also threatened by Carvers group leading to an enemy of my enemy is my friend scenario.
Right, because morality in TWD is that simple, isn't it?
Tavia and the guy on the radio were apparently good. Carver is in opposition to the cabin people so we've only heard their side of the story so far. There could easily be more to it. The situation may not be as clear cut as it currently appears.
That's equally possible, and either way it sounds like a great story. I'm curious what size Carvers group is, whether it's a band of raiders or a small scale society.
I think Carver is Steve who was mentioned by Russell in 400 days. There are distinct similarities between his group and the cabin group.

Whoever Wins, We're Winning Too: ARM Holdings Posts Record Earnings
Jason Mick

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
2012 looks bright for ARM, even as competitors drop off
ARM Holdings plc (
) is an innovator who's been to hell and back. Born from the 1984 Acorn RISC Machine project, ARM grew under the financial investment Apple, Inc. (
) and its UK parent Acorn Computers. But mounting financial troubles at Acorn -- and to a lesser extent -- Apple threatened to sink ARM Holdings as the 90s approached. A
bold spinoff
ultimately saved the profitable unit. Divestment of stakes in the spinoff saved Apple, although it was not enough to stop Acorn from sinking.
I. Apple's Record Profits Mean Big Profits for ARM
The brave little castaway grew from a glorified R&D project into a giant of the electronics world. From modest beginnings in hard drive and appliance microcontrollers, ARM would go on to define itself as the mobile processor architecture of choice. Virtually every smartphone and tablet sold today carries a chip that either uses
ARM's proprietary core designs
, or at the very least licenses ARM's instruction set. Today there are by far more ARM CPUs in the wild than any other kind of CPU -- including Intel Corp.'s (
) traditional PC chips.
2011 was a landmark year of ARM. While ARM has yet to wholly knock Intel out of the game, it's done its best over the last few years to marginalize it, as people have turned away time-wise from the traditional personal computer and flocked to its mobile evolution, the smartphone.
ARM Powers every smartphone on the market today, and almost all the tablets, as well. From Android to iPhone, they all use ARM. [Image Source: Esquire]
2011 saw Android
surge out to a big lead
, and then slow slightly. Towards the end of the year, in Q4 2011, ARM's old ex-investor Apple
charged back with the iPhone 4S
. But all of these phones had at least one important thing in common -- they all use ARM CPUs and they all funneled royalties/license fees to ARM Holdings.
ARM Holdings
its Q4 results on Monday afternoon, and once again it blew past analyst estimates. It pulled in 137.8M £ ($218.4M USD) in revenue -- up 20.9 percent over last year's total of 113.95M £ ($180.61M USD). The company's pre-tax profit was 69M £ ($109M USD), up 45 percent from 47.6M £ ($75.4M USD) in Q4 2010. The net profit was 33.1M £ ($52.5M USD) up from 29.7M £ ($47.1M USD).
[Image Source: World of Stock]
Analysts estimated that the company would deliver a revenue of 123.6M £ ($195.9M USD) and a pre-tax profit of 55.8M £ ($88.4M USD).
Warren East, Chief Executive Officer cheers, "In Q4 and throughout 2011 ARM has seen strong licensing growth, driven by market-leading semiconductor companies increasing their commitment to ARM technology, and more new customers choosing ARM technology for the first time. We have also seen our royalty revenue continue to grow faster than industry revenues as the ARM Partnership gains share in our target markets..."
II. Record Run Expected to Continue as ARM Attacks New Markets
Smartphones proved the biggest boost for ARM Holdings. In a phone conference Chief Financial Officer Tim Score said that a single smartphone could earn ARM as much revenue as five to ten feature (voice-only) phones.
Over 2.2
ARM CPUs shipped in Q4 2011, and the company shows no signs of slowing down. It added 25 new licensees in Q4 2011. Among them is Hewlett-Packard Comp. (
) who is cooking up
the world's first ARM-based servers
. ARM also looks to invade the laptop segment, with the launch of Microsoft Corp.'s (
ARM-friendly Windows 8
ARM will power Windows laptops and tablets later this year. After sluggish delivery by Intel, Microsoft finally opened the gates to ARM and its partners with the new OS.
[Image Source:
/Jason Mick]
Even as chipmakers like Intel have slashed their outlets due to sluggish sales expectations for 2012, ARM is posting bold predictions. It expects revenue to rise to 126.2M £ ($200M USD) or more in calendar Q1 2012. And it expects a total revenue of 542.6M £ ($860M USD) for the the year.
The future looks truly bright for ARM as it maintains its ubiquitous dominance of the mobile space and begins to expand into new markets.

Please help - condensation or leak?
I have what I think is called a cathedral ceiling, in the second bedroom of my property, it is a pitched ceiling which follows the line of the roof and appears to have very little in between the interior ceiling and the roof. The inside is "plastered" with artex, which has been painted. The ceiling is damp to touch and sometimes has droplets of water which run down. When I first saw the problem, I assumed it was a leak and called a roofing man (he said that the roof was in generally good condition but quoted to extend some lead flashing in the hope of remedying the problem). But having searched the net I am now confused as some websites suggest the problem may be condensation.
Is there any sure way to tell if the problem is a leak or condensation?
What would be the remedy if the problem is condensation?
Please help!!
This sounds like condensation to me---It is common with cathedral ceilings--
Warm moist air rises and hits the cooler ceiling---bingo--water drops.
Your best bet is to get the air moving--if you have a ceiling fan turn it on in the reverse setting so that it is blowing UP towards the ceiling----Mike---

Climbing the Ladder
How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, opening at the Roxy Performing Arts Center, in collaboration with the Greater Miami Youth Symphony, is like if Mad Men were hit in the face with a musical. Thanks to a self-help book he picked up on a whim, young window washer J. Pierpont Finch now believes he can quit his squeegee-holding days and make some noise in the corporate world. He soon joins the Worldwide Wicket Corporation, a company housed in the very building whose windows he once washed, and after starting off as a mailroom clerk, he quickly climbs the corporate ladder using the cutthroat tactics described in the book. There he meets and begins to fall in love with plucky secretary Rosemary Pilkington, while having to deal with rival Bud Frump, the nephew of the company's president, J.B. Biggley. Biggley, meanwhile, tries to bed the curvaceous Hedy LaRue, who has a somewhat dubious relationship with executive Mr. Ovington. All the while, Finch has to decide if all of this corporate backstabbing is worth the trouble, while his love for Rosemary keeps him grounded along the way. The cast and orchestra are made up of Miami-Dade high school and college students, ranging in age from 12 to 22.

So hey, how'd you spend your weekend?
Apparently if you are in a band and were near Brighton, chances are you spent the day Saturday holed up at the crash pad of You Can Be A Wesley, where the uprising indie boys and girl shot a new video for their fuzzy rock jam "Old In Florida." (Full disclosure: the video was directed by Loroto, a production duo comprised of Phoenix contributors Addison A. Post and YCBAW bassist P. Nick Curran.)
In the two-minute/one-take clip, On the Download spies members of Mean Creek and Pretty & Nice while Earthquake Party frontman Justin Lally makes the rounds as the lead gent. It's a pretty sweet clip. Meanwhile, the single "Old In Florida" is the other half of You Can Be A Wesley's latest release, a tidy two-song package that also includes "Talking Science," a former Phoenix Mp3 of the Week from back in October.
Oh and watch out: it's almost NSFW around the 1:54 mark, but we don't think any man-junk, save a pube or two, is actually exposed. We did hear, however, that everyone in attendance at the shoot was treated to full, ongoing views of Curran's pale bare ass. Thankfully, those scenes didn't make the cut.

In my opinion & experience this company is a company that cannot or just refuses to live up to their promises.
I have been waiting for my (so-called) 1 year anniversary rewards check of up to $50.00 to be applied to my generation portion of my electric bill now for over 4 months (September 2013). I have communicated with them serveral times, only to get every excuse in the book. It's not your anniversary month yet, We just got your rewards just the other day-5 weeks after I sent it, we'll look into it and get back to you-never calling back, oh we sent that check-never receiving it. I have sent them an E-Mail stating my intentions of exposing them for what they are on my local news station action service and of course leaving them as a customer. Of course they probably won't care, but I will see how far I can go with this!

Sharing Our Hearts is a group of bird owners that participate in Events with
Live Parrots on display for Educational purposes.
We have over 30 years experience with Parrots and Educational Events.
We will bring a variety of Rare Parrots including some that can be held or touched. We provide an open play area display without cages for most all of the parrots.
Cameras are also welcome.
To have us participate in your event, or to find out where we will be next:
contact Julie at 206-501-7428 in Seattle, WA.
We can do a variety of venues, and according to the distance, can provide an enclosure
and all materials needed for setting up our display.
Venues in the past have included: Pet Expo, Schools, Nursing Homes, National Seminars and more.
We believe in educating people about the commitment and lifespans of birds.
Proper Nutrition, Safe Environments, and Safe Toys. Educational packets can be included.
Our goal is no birds need to end up in Rescues or Sanctuaries by educating possible future owners, and to promote interest in saving birds in the wild.
Many of our parrots have come to us via rehoming, death of owner, and many other reasons and now they have become avian ambassadors to the public.
We have a few fundraising items that we sell to help maintain our event equipment
for the birds. These items include lapel pins, Bird Photos, art prints, and more.

There are those who decry the drift away from organized religion and consider decline in church attendance to be a sign that too many have become secular in their thinking. However, there are several churches in the state of Kentucky which have discovered a way to bring young people back to God and Jesus Christ. For example, the Lone Oak Baptist Church now gives away guns if you attend one of their social church events. In other words, show up, say you are a Christian and please select one of our guns that are NOT for sale, they are for our fellow Christians! Another church discovered that offing guns meant more people in church. As one minister put it: "I can almost tell you the number of men that will show up based on the make and model of guns we give away. On those special church celebration days he now has 600 come where he used to only get 300.
The NRA Sermon On The Mount
Blessed are the war makers since theirs is the foundation of our faith.
Blessed are the rich in money since theirs is the work of Jesus.
Blessed are those who deny food to the lazy and shiftless since those are the true followers of God.
Blessed are those who teach children the road to Heaven is laden with dead bodies of criminals.
Blessed is the NRA for they are the followers of Jesus who maintain within their hearts the anger of hate and violence!

Sauvage an inspiration, says rival
The Sun-Herald
Page Tools
Louise Sauvage's long-time rival, Chantal Petitclerc, has paid tribute to the nine-time gold medallist on the eve of the Australian's last Paralympic race.
Petitclerc said that wheelchair racer Sauvage, who is retiring from Paralympic competition after Athens, will leave an amazing legacy.
"I know that she has, as an athlete, really set the standards for Paralympic sport and for women in particular," Petitclerc said. "If you look back 10 years ago, women's wheelchair racing wasn't what it is today. She was a big part of that and I know she will continue to inspire other wheelchair athletes as a trainer and I think she will continue to do what she did as an athlete."
Petitclerc has been in sparkling form at these games. She took gold ahead of Sauvage in the 800 metres on Wednesday, and the Canadian has also won the 100m and 1500m in Athens.
Sauvage, 31, claimed a silver in the 800m and is aiming for gold in the 400m tomorrow morning (Sydney time). The 400m is not her strongest distance, but if she wins gold, it will take her tally to 10 and make her the most successful Australian Paralympian ever.
Yet Petitclerc, 35, could ruin Sauvage's farewell party - she has labelled these Paralympics her "best".
"I think it's always been a very healthy rivalry. She's very strong. The 800m was the exhibition event that we've both been focusing on, and she beat me last year in Paris and I took that pretty hard," Petitclerc said.
But the Canadian said it was going to be different without Sauvage.
"She's always been so strong, and what I like about Louise is that even though, for example, yesterday I was faster than her in the 1500, I know she's not giving up and she's going to try again tomorrow [in the 400]."
The Canadian came to these games with 11 Paralympic gold, and now has 14 gold medals. Her highlight so far has been the 1500m event, which she won in a world record-breaking time.
"When you win a race and get the world record, it's hard to go back home and go to sleep. That's my challenge, to go home and forget about it and think about Louise in the 400 tomorrow," Petitclerc said.

Angkor Voyage Villa
Today we had the honor of seeing a traditional shadow puppet performance of the Reamke (which is the Cambodian version of the Ramayana). The puppets are leather cutouts that represent different characters. It's kind of hard to explain unless you look at the photographs. The put up a huge white screen and started a blazing fire behind it. They also played traditional Cambodian music and explained the story in Khmer, which I obviously didn't understand. Luckily, I know the story of the Ramayana well enough to know what was going on.

These are super easy and involve a technique that you probably mastered in day camp -- Finger Knitting.
Don't remember finger knitting? Check out the tutorial by Flax & Twine; Anne and her kids will walk you through it step by step.
Once you've created a chain, you're ready to get started. My 5 3/8 inch tree needed a 3.5 foot chain.
Chunky yarn - finger knitted into a chain
Styrofoam cone
3 dressmakers' pins
1 yarn star (easy tutorial from Live.Laugh.Rowe if you need it)
1. Pull your chain tight and stick a pin through a few layers of yarn at the end
2. Insert the pin into the base of your styrofoam cone
3. Begin wrapping the chain around the cone. The texture of the styrofoam keeps the fluffy yarn in place with no glue needed!
4. Keep wrapping!
6. Once you get to the tippy top of the cone, stick a pin through the tail end of the chain and insert it into the styrofoam.
7. Now take your yarn star and use another pin to attach it to the top of your tree.
I hate to love something so much but these turned out so stinking cute! I decided to use a much chunkier yarn for the middle sized tree (which required about 7 yards of chain) and I think it looks so full and luscious! I topped that tree with an oversized satin bow.
For the large tree, I decided to go an alternate route and covered the form with surplus batting. To spruce it up a bit, I used red, white and green pearl pins as ornaments.
I tucked all three of them into our bay window in the living room and I love the warmth they add to that little vignette. You also get a sneak peak of the pinecone project I mentioned yesterday: new curtain ties! Even the Mr. gave me his stamp of approval!
And guess what! After the season is over, you can salvage the form underneath as there are only pins holding everything in place. This might sound silly but I spent almost $20 on those cones (with a coupon!) and they're only going to be out for a little over two weeks. That's a bit of a waste if you ask me. Who knows what next year's tree fad will have in store for me but at least I'll be prepared!
If you liked this project, I'd be delighted if you'd consider following Spool and Spoon via email or through Google Friend Connect; there are plenty of other simple tutorials and mouth-watering recipes for you to discover! Also, did you know Spool and Spoon has a Facebook? Hop on over so you don't miss any of the fun.

Michael McConnell, Director of National Intelligence, told Congress al-Qaida has reconstituted its leadership over the past two years and regained the "core operational capabilities" needed to launch attacks within the United States. He regards al-Qida as still the number one threat to the security of this nation. "Al-Qaida is improving the last key aspect of its ability to attack the U.S. The identification, training and positioning of operatives for an attack on the homeland." McConnell noted his agency has identified a growing influx of recruits from the Western world in tribal areas of the northwest area of Pakistan. A continuing problem is the safe haven affored al-Qaida in these regions.
McConnell emphasized that several key al-Qaida leaders had been killed in the past year, but their deaths have not impaired the ability of its organization to conduct terrorist activities. The current situation is a vivid reminder of Bush blunders in not pursuing al-Qaida and the Taliban in 2001-2002 when the opportunity was ripe to wipe out those organizations. The president got side tracked into diverting resources to an ill-fated invasion of Iraq which has been disaster. One can only wonder if al-Qaida would still be an operational force today if Bush had pursued another course of action?

- - Which airline to use for shipping dogs? (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/general-information/408018-airline-use-shipping-dogs.html)
Which airline to use for shipping dogs?
I need to ship my girl from Orlando Florida to Seattle Washington. Any suggestions on which airline to use or not use?
I would personally not fly Delta. I have heard too many horror stories about them specifically and their lack of responsibility for the slip ups.
I used Gradlyn ...G.K. Airfreight as the coordinator.
GK used Lufthansa and Delta...and all went very well.
If they follow past practices...pets are loaded on last and unloaded first.
I used united from pheonix to chicago.. they are pretty good as far as i no.. u have to have food and water on the cage and ur dog has to be conscious. . Also they provide cable ties and have climate control

Both of mine were shipped with continental airlines. Had no issues. :-) they came wagging their tails and happy! <3

One other thought....Airlines hauling pets in the cargo hold most likely have restrictions based upon temperatures at departures and destinations, which is wise. I believe when one needs to be most concerned is during the hot summer months. Winter has restrictions as well.
Below is American Airlines restrictions.
Pets cannot be accepted when the current or forecasted temperature is above 85 degrees Fahrenheit (29.4 degrees C) at any location on the itinerary.
Pets cannot be accepted when the ground temperature is below 45 degrees Fahrenheit (7.2 degrees C) at any location on the itinerary.
The restriction for cold temperature restriction may be waived with a written veterinarian statement. The low temperature acclimation certificate/statement/form must include the following:
I assume most other airlines have similar restrictions regarding temperatures as well.
I had two different dogs shipped from Seattle to Michigan on 2 separate occasions via Northwest--no complaints at all.
United will ship in any weather condition. I got my pup in the hot summer and they were the only airline I could find that would ship because their cargo area is climate controlled. They did forget to load my pup on his connecting flight though. He had to wait another hour for the next flight.
Mine were on Continental no problems. However, I do agree with the poster above, check with the airlines, most won't ship in various weather conditions, they take into consideration layovers and ending stop. May be nice weather where you are, but maybe not so where they are going

I hope he got a free meal or cocktail for the inconvenience.

Adrienne Maloof Surrogate Claims? Paul Nassiff Kisses and Makes Up With Brandi Glanville
Brandi Glanville made a claim about Adrienne Maloof that was so explosive it was edited out of this week's 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' when it aired on Bravo.
However, a report has claimed what Brandi said about Adrienne is that she used a surrogate to give birth to her babies.
The explosive scene was aired this week on Bravo with a big edit, the network cut out the specific accusation Brandi made regarding Adrienne Maloof and her children.
The website Wetpaint quickly filled in the blanks, however, reporting an insider had revealed that Brandi's accusation involved a surrogate and Adrienne's kids.
See the claims here.
Meanwhile Paul Nassiff (who was married to Adrienne at the time the show was taped, but they have since divorced) seems to have kissed and made up with Brandi.
He tweeted all is okay with Glanville.
Paul tweets:
"Was being protective when the conversation went out of bounds. Glad everything is okay with @Brandi Glanville. Time to enjoy the holidays!"
Brandi commented in her Bravo blog:
"I understand why Paul was upset with me and he was just defending his wife's honor. But I don't think even Paul was aware (at the time) of how underhanded she could be."
What happens next?
Perhaps a huge lawsuit.
Reality Tea has details here and a recap of the show.
