WHat do you think, purpose is to be little more sporty, smaller than the MKRhttp://i992.photobucket.com/albums/af43/99f150/MKC.jpg[/IMG]]
I like it but it's missing the Lincoln badge.
^^^ ya i know but i like it better with out, i dont know what it is but the lincoln badge up front sorta ruins it imo, everybody would know its a lincoln.Some people (round here)do just that take off the badges, i think thats why i thought it looked good, little off the wall, different.
Looks Great Lincoln should make this

Actually it looks like it is based on a Mustang Convertible (IIRC, MkR would be built on a streched version of the next Mustang, the same one that will be used for F-OZ's Falcon).So it'd make sense as a 2-seater, not a 2+2 like in this chop (leaving the Mustang Convertible a 2+2) and with ANOTHER NAME (MkC will be a baby Lincoln [C standing for Compact, not Coupé] based on the next Focus if you read into the prototype of the same name...), like MkE (yeah, it sound like the Milwaukee airport code, pero...).PS: MT's censor software wouldn't allow the English translation from the Spanish word pero.

The movers and shakers of the International Rugby Board will have one or two things to think about on their long trip back to Europe following this World Cup, and Steve Hansen today suggested another item for their to-do list - a global rugby season.
It's not a new topic of conversation among rugby coaches of any level but the many injuries suffered by leading players from both hemispheres at this tournament and earlier in the year have given it an added impetus.
Dan Carter's groin tear is the injury du jour but according to the All Blacks' medical staff that was a freakish event which could have happened no matter how rested he was.
More pertinent are the stress fractures and over-use injuries such as Richie McCaw's foot injury, with Hansen suggesting the sooner the IRB organised a global season which factored in proper down-time the better.
"It's not just this year's workload, it's a continuation of a workload,'' All Blacks' assistant coach Hansen said. "Rugby league get 16 weeks to get rid of all their niggles and have a pre-season. Rugby union has four weeks or five weeks before they have to go back into work and I don't think it's much different in the Northern Hemisphere, to be honest. We need a global season and the only people who can do that are the IRB.
"There's no solution unless we have a global season. People have to be prepared to say our players are worth looking after and this is what we need to do to make the next step in the game.''
Hansen said the Northern Hemisphere players weren't necessarily fresher than their southern counterparts.
"I'd say they're feeling like we are. They'll have a bit of match fatigue. They play a lot of games up there too. The difference is they don't have to travel far. The furthest place you go in a plane over there is probably an hour, an hour and a half and you get back home. Our guys have to go to South Africa and various other places so that does make a difference. You saw that with the Crusaders.''
Brad Thorn has conceded that his calf injury mid-season for the Crusaders was a blessing in disguise as it gave him time to work on proper conditioning for the first time since his league days.
But for the IRB a global rugby season is just another tree in a forest of issues. Over the past few weeks the organisation has been criticised for not providing a level playing field in giving the "minnows'' of the World Cup such as Samoa too little turnaround time between matches and being too heavy-handed in fining the Tuilagi brothers for wearing the wrong mouthguards. They have been accused of bleeding the big rugby countries dry and not giving enough to the smaller nations.
Given the competing interests between the national unions and privately-owned rugby clubs in the Northern Hemisphere, plus the Southern Hemisphere unions, it's not likely a global season will be organised any time soon. That's a shame as it would shut down a conversation piece uttered by many except rugby coaches - that of 'too much rugby'.

Leo Quinn, Chief Executive Officer said: "Rapid execution of our self-help plan is building a stronger QinetiQ. The Group is better focussed on delivering its customers' changing needs, and this is starting to come through in its underlying performance.
"The Board believes that, absent any material change in customer requirements, the Group will exceed its original expectations for the current year by approximately 20%, although market uncertainties mean that visibility beyond the current year remains lower than normal. Our confidence in QinetiQ's ability to build significant value over the medium term is demonstrated by the payment of the interim dividend of 0.9p."
There will be a presentation of the interim results to analysts at 0900 hours UK time on 23 November 2011 at UBS Ground Floor Conference Centre, 1 Finsbury Avenue, London, EC2M 2PP. An audiocast of the event can be heard using the following numbers:
* Definitions of underlying measures of performance can be found in the glossary. Underlying financial measures, excluding amortisation of intangible assets arising from acquisitions and specific non-recurring items, are presented as the Board believes these provide a better representation of the Group's long-term performance trends. Specific non-recurring items include amounts relating to: restructuring costs; pension curtailment gains; contingent payments on acquisition treated as remuneration; net gains/losses in respect of previously capitalised DTR-programme bid costs; impairment of property, plant and equipment; impairment of intangible assets; gain/(loss) on business combinations and divestments; unrealised impairments of investments; and tax thereon.
† The gearing ratio (adjusted net debt:EBITDA) is the ratio of net borrowings at the balance sheet date translated at average exchange rates for the period to EBITDA generated in the 12 month period to the balance sheet date and calculated in accordance with the Group's credit facility ratios.

From classy flasks and stylish sunglasses; to classic canvas totes, vintage tees and versatile scarves, Tucker's Provisions properly provides everything men, women and kids need.
Owner Kurt Matarazzo calls his latest venture "part general, part dry goods store," and says the shop "provides for fishing outings, beach days with family, first dates and 50th anniversaries."
And the brands Matarazzo carries let a shopper feel good about looking good.
The tags that hang from nearly all the merchandise describe companies with a conscience.
Every purchase of a classically classy backpack, tote bag and duffel by United By Blue, along with their devastatingly soft cotton clothing, helps fund the removal of trash from the world's oceans.
Opposite the bags, sleeveless dresses by MATA Traders, priced at less than $100, beckon in blue. A quick glance at the tag teaches the customer that "mata" means "mother" in Hindi, and the company is dedicated to empowering women, especially in India and Nepal.
MATA Traders is committed to fair trade practices that ensure impoverished women in those countries are earning earn fair wages for their textile work.
On another wall inside Tucker's Provisions, beach bags are made from recycled rice and grain bags.
In short, neither people nor their planet were harmed in the production of the clothes and other products that line the walls and fill the shelves at Tucker's Provisions, a store reminiscent of a different era in a different town -- before frozen drinks and four-day cruises descended on Duval Street.
"The scarcity of paved roads meant little, as few people owned cars ... They walked, or they rode bicycles with no locks. They spent hours porch-sitting; kept chickens; caught fish and harvested conch," Matarazzo states in his online description of the shop, reminding people that in the 1940s, the area now considered Old Town was actually all of Key West.
"Out of this confident post World War II Key West, Tucker's Provisions rose. Today, it's where a wardrobe is still well-made, low-maintenance and not about the labels. It's where to find the perfect flask, comfortable canvas shows and a wristwatch to rely on," said Matarazzo, who also owns the Jake's Key shop on Duval Street, home of the "Life is good" logo.
Matarazzo was also an owner, years ago, of Cole's Peace artisan bakery on Eaton Street,
Tucker's Provisions opened about a month ago and has been provisioning locals and tourists from day one.
Oh, and the free beer, bottled water and seats are a guy's godsend. An antique Coca Cola cooler holds cold bottle of Bud Light, Corona and water.
"They're free, help yourself," employees offer -- to customers with proper ID, that is.
While his counterpart browses, tries on, discards, browses again and finally decides, a husband or boyfriend kicks back with a cold one and flips through a magazine.
That sigh of contentment -- that exclamation of delight issuing from a fitting room when a woman finds the perfect dress -- that's what it's all about.

Top Coat Painters of Pasco David Mays BREACH OF CONTRACT Hudson Florida
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
The owner, Dave Mays, will not honor our contract and as a result of his shabby unprofessional exterior paint job, my home must stripped of the paint he applied. The conditioner must be applied, and the walls then re-painted. He cut corners by not properly pressure washing my home as per the contract, not trenching around the foundation of the home as per the contract, and not cleaning the pool cage as per the contract, and not applying the Sherwin-Williams Loxon conditioner product before applying paint as per the contract.
Serveral experts have been out to the house to look at the paint and all have agreed that Top Coat failed to prepare the surface properly before painting. The Sherwin-Williams paint started peeling off my home in large sheets just days after his crew completed the job. NOT RECOMMENDED unless you like spending your time in court. We gave him many opportunities to refund our money but he will not respond to e-mails or certified letters but apparently ripping me off for $2800 is more important than the reputation and longevity of his business.

Quick holiday outfit post for you!
|Matalan Dress and Own the Runway Flatforms
I love this little strapless dress that I got from the Matalan summer sales last year. And guess what? It was only £5!!! I always wear my Wonderbra Ultimate strapless bra with these styles – you can check that out here.
The cute the flatforms are from Own the Runway. They are absolutely gorgeous but slightly tricky to walk in, so I'd definitely recommend these as taxi and standing still shoes! You can see more info and me wearing them here too.
I love the floral print of this dress. Very pretty!

Raw, Organic Walnuts
There are a lot of nuts out there these days, but none as enjoyably edible as walnuts. They're used in more cooked foods than perhaps any other nut in the world, making an excellent addition to salads, casseroles, desserts, breakfast foods, and more, and are just as good eaten raw, roasted, or toasted.
Aside from their culinary popularity, walnuts are an excellent source of nutrition, providing healthy fatty acids. Just like their nutty cousins, they're also a good source of protein. Adding NOW Real Food Walnuts to your diet is a tasty and nutritious way to improve your health and well-being without going nuts.
Supportive but not conclusive research shows that eating 1.5 ounces per day of walnuts, as part of a low saturated fat and low cholesterol diet and not resulting in increased caloric intake, may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. See nutrition information for fat and calorie content.
Because you are what you eat, NOW Real Food has been committed to providing delicious, healthy, natural and organic foods since 1968. We're independent, family owned, and proud of it. Keep it natural. Keep it real.

Great FRESH organic walnuts at an excellent price. We find these to be much fresher than the bulk bin organic walnuts at our local store. These bags have enough internal air that it pads the nuts from too much damage meaning more whole pieces rather than the broken pieces in the bins. Bag after bag (we eat a lot of these), these NOW packaged walnuts continue to impress us with their freshness and quality control giving you the best available organic walnuts. Yum! In fact, I just ordered the organic raw sunflower seeds to try since I've not been happy with local bulk bin quality.
Excellent quality..perceptible difference in taste and quality even when compared to high quality premium walnuts that I used to buy from Cold Storage in Singapore

Love the authentic taste. Taste like the walnuts I used to eat a long time ago that came in whole nuts. Realised that the regular, mass produced nuts lack this taste, only after I tried these. Also have a thyroid condition and have to be careful with pesticides, so decided to swtich to this brand of walnuts once I researched and discovered that walnuts are heavily sprayed.
Very good - pricey

What to expect from a Catalina 25
1 Attachment(s)
Lots of new members are here so I thought some of them may be interested in what to expect from a very common first boat.
I took out my friends 25' Catalina 25 today in Long Island Sound from Westbrook CT. This boat has a very large probably 150 roller furling Genoa that is very soft. A main with line reef point that is not ripped but is very soft and stretched. It is the fixed keel version with a 9.9 outboard.
Conditions were very very gusty from 9 knots to 25 knots with very little chop most of the time but at one time I got about 3 feet for a little while.
I had a hand held wind meter and a camera so I tried to document what the conditions were and how the boat handled it.
I was alone with tiller steering and just simple lashing for tiller control so besides playing reporter I had to take a second or two and sail the boat.
This picture is taken with the Genny rolled up quite a bit probably only 18" past the spreader. Later I took it in another foot or so so it was reefed down to about a 100 jib. As you can see the shape is horrible but better than not being reefed at all.
The main as you can see has the reef set.
Close reach, apparent wind
At 13 to 15 knots the boat was quite happy. Did not seem out of control at all and was sailing fast.
At 17 to 20 knots with these two reefs in the helm was a little heavy but still no real stress.
At 21 to 25 it seemed to me a little too much wind for this sail on a close reach. Not impossible as it only gusted so I could head up a little or let the main loose and luff a little.
I experimented with rolling up the Genny completely and just sailing with the main and that reduced the healing problem almost completely. That makes sense because the jib reefed to 100 percent was being carried too high and setting in such a bad shape it was not helping as much as it should.
I did notice that the boat speed drastically was reduced on main only. Apparently even a poorly set jib is the main driving sail on this boat. I also noticed that I was not able to tack on main only. I had to jib 270 degrees to make a tack.
This was probably because my over ground was only 3 knots as I was heading directly into a 2 knot current. I cold just not get enough speed to make the tack with out a jib upwind and up-current reefed main only.
One thing that was in my favor was that there was very little wave action.
The thing that appears to be the limiting factor on this boat is not the sailing as it seems to hand wind and waves easily at least up to 25 knots.
The limiting factor is control of the boat under power if there is a cross wind the same direction as a cross current and you are trying to motor in a chanel with even 2 foot chop. That combination can make it impossible to hold a course if you can't keep the prop in the water enough to make progress against wind and waves.
I did notice that crew positioned as far back as possible helps a lot. I have better control of the boat in those circumstances if I have another person than when I'm alone. The extra weight helps keep the prop in the water.
Good info. I had similar experience on my C22 (another common first boat).
I found that having just a little Genoa unrolled helped by keeping ex helm down.
It also helps tacking. But, I never had any problem tacking.

This picture is from today.
Good old Long Island Sound co-operated with 0 to 10 knot winds.
As you can see the Catalina 25 even in very light wind of only 5 knots can get going pretty well as it is in this picture. It piped up to 10 knots and and with full genny and main was only 10 degrees angle of heal.
What's the story with the main sail or boom? It looks like either the main is way too small or the boom is way too long.
It is not as much as the picture seems to show because of the angle of the camera but that was my question too during the survey.
Better to have too much space at the end of your boom
then not to be able to tighten your out haul all the way.
Does the main sail have #'s on it and do they match your boat? It could be a sail from a different 25 or so footer. I've seen the reverse, where the main sail came to the bitter end of the boom and there was no way to tighten the out haul without reefing the sail. At least your out haul works.
Do you use a trailer for the Cat 25' over winter?
Brad and I sail all winter.:)
The position of the mast yes
The size of the sail yes
But if the boom is longer than the foot of the sail it does not affect the sail plan at all.
It also makes the topping lift clear the roach easier which is another benefit.
As far as the reefed sail causing force in the middle of the boom that is true of course, hopefully the designer took that into consideration when sizing the boom.

I'm giving Joyce Carol Oates work another try. I'd really disliked her past work, not the style or story, just the bleakness of it all. However, several of her recent works have appeared on my reading shelf, so not unlike Phillip Roth, I'm willing to give this author another shot.
Also, just checked out this interview which made me wonder: who would win a fistfight, Oates or Didion?

SW Western Australia Bird WatchingAuthor: Carl from Pahrump (More Trip Reviews by Carl from Pahrump)
Date of Trip: March 2007
Pretty soon Magpies showed up at the porch. We threw rocks at them to chase them away from the feeders. They thought we were feeding them. One Magpie was so stupid it flew down to the ground and found our rocks and ate them.
For Lunch we went to the Tathra Winery & Restaurant near our cottage. We started with baked Pumpkin Soup with swirled cream & Herbs, and a pinwheel roll. For the main course, my wife had baked Ricotta Cheese with veggie & fruit salad and chutney. I had Marron (freshwater Lobster) with veggie & fruit salad. The salad dressing was homemade-spiced Balsamic Vinegar. Deliciously Beautiful!!!
After lunch we took a power nap. When we woke-up, I noticed a Corella sitting in the tree by our porch. This turned out to be the rare SW Western Corella -- I got one picture that showed the faint red spot on the chest. The Corella seemed to be traveling with an Australian Magpie (this was strange since Corellas usually travel in flocks of thousands). They sat together for a long time on a limb and flew off together.
It turns out from talking to Ian that the Corella has been here since they bought the resort property in 1995. His name is Bertie. He has a one-eyed Magpie girlfriend that is always by his side -- even though he regularly snaps at her (like every 30 seconds, as if by clock-work). When Ian and Bonnie first came to the property, Bertie flew down and landed on Ian's shoulder.
On March 19 we had some hydrotherapy this morning in our hot tub on the patio. We saw several beautiful birds including the Yellow-rumped Pardalote. The Red Wattlebird drew my wife's ire by trying to guard the honey-water feeders and chase off the other Honeyeaters. He'll probably have a stress-anxiety attack soon and have to see a Shrink.
It's amazing how fast the birds can sense a change in the balance of power. As soon as my wife started harassing the Red Wattlebird and chasing it off, the little Honeyeaters came in droves to the feeders. The Twenty-Eight Parrots also came in for the seeds we put out.
We have heard the Twenty-Eight Parrots a lot, and they never make a sound like "Twenty-Eight" -- more like a car alarm going off
About 10am we went for a drive east on the Blackwood River Valley. We stopped briefly at the Golden Valley Tree Farm. On the short walk my wife got ants in her birding pants. She did a great impersonation of Cedric trying to get rid of them!
About 2:30pm there was a mighty disturbance in the natural balance of quietness as a thousand Short-billed Black-cockatoos flew by the resort in swalking waves. The first batch flew down the river in view of our patio. Pretty soon every tall tree was sitting full of them. They are nomadic and moved on down the river after a brief rest.
On March 20 we were off to the SW tip of Australia. The Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse near Augusta is as far SW as you can go in Australia (34.368S 115.135E). The lighthouse forms the dividing line between the cold South Ocean and the warm Indian Ocean.
On the drive over we made a U-turn to go back and see three Red-tailed Black-cockatoos in a tree. As we were driving into Augusta we saw a field of Pink Naked Ladies. We went for several beach walks looking for Rock Parrots. The best time to see them is Jy thru early Spring. We managed to see a flock flying off.
On the beach we saw a spectacular Sooty Oystercatcher. The SW species is bigger, with bolder orange colors, than we have seen before.
You have to pay $8US to get into the lighthouse, so we just took a photo and left. Most of the lighthouses have an admission fee.
We stopped for lunch at the Colourpatch Fish and Chips: "Last Eating House Before the Antarctic (5439Km). We got the fish and chips, which was actually a seafood basket. In two words, the food was Not Beautiful! It didn't taste so bad, but it was greasy. The greasy taste lingered even after we ate a Mound bar. The only good thing about the restaurant was that we could watch Dolphins swim in the bay from our table.
On March 21 we lit the gas fireplace and lounged around the spa and cottage till 9am orchestrating the cacophony of birds trying to feed on the porch -- including seven "28 Parrots"
It had warmed up to 56F at 9:20am when we left the cottage to go birding. We drove into town and took the dirt road to St John Broom Conservation Area. Right off we saw a couple dozen Western Rosellas.
We stopped at Workers Pool and took the forest trail down to Barrabup Pool along the St John Brook. We came on a SW Brush Bronzewing that let us follow him down the trail till we were only 10 feet away. Back at our car we saw a flaming Scarlet Robin -- Beautiful!!!!! On the way out of the park we saw our best bird of the day -- a Shining Bronze-Cuckoo.
Back at the cottage we continued to harass the Red Wattlebird -- he'll have a lot of gray feathers when we leave.

I had lipo on my abs/muffin top 14 months ago. I have three incisions that are about half an inch long and 1/4 an inch wide. They're barely raised, but darker than the surrounding skin and stand out. The doctor said they'll fade in time, but I'd pay ~$500 to get this faster. Lasers? Dermabrasion? I am an easy-scarer, somewhat Mediterranean skin-tone prone to hyperpigmentation. Accelerating the lightening process is my main interest with these scars, but a touch of flattening would be nice, too.
Removing Small Dark Liposuction Scars?
Doctor Answers 1
Surgical scarring and scar widening
Without photos or more details no-one can tell you what would be best. The scars sound wide and if the initial incisions were allowed to heal on their own without sutures your best bet would be to cut out the scars and suture the resulting wounds in order to end up with narrower scars. If they were initially sutured it is unlikely that repeating the process would give you a different result.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Children Beware of Hearst Corporation. Bullying phone saleman for Hearst is trying to ruin my 12 year old son's credit for $9.97! Last year, my 12 year old son received a phone call from a bullying man trying to get him to subscribe to Popular Mechanics.As I listened to my son struggling on the phone, I put the conversation on speaker phone. I told this man that my son was underage and that he did not want thismagazine. This man continued to bully my son and attempt to get him to say he wanted it. I told my son to tell him, "no." My son repeatedly told him, "no, thanks." I also told the man, "no." Soon thereafter, webegan to receive bills for $9.97 for this magazine. I sent a letter immediately to the man's name who was shown as the manager. Since then, the letters have become more threatening. I am shocked at Hearst Magazines and their tactics.
These bills have no phone number, no fax number, and are not professionally written. Here is a sample of the language: "Subscription Suspended for Non Payment", that's what our records reflect. Take a moment now to settle your obligation with us and we will promptly reinstate your subscription. G.L. Valk, Credit and Collections Manager"
Note: the comma in the sentence is written AFTER the quote mark. You would think a magazine could at least use proper grammar and punctuation in their threatening letters. Hearst also claimed in earlier letters that my son had agreed to automatic renewals that could not be cancelled. What? I was sitting right there at the phone when their salesman initiallycalled. We do not want this magazine, much less to have it reinstated.
What a ripoff.... trying to bully and ruin a little kid's credit. It would be difficult for me to believe had I not been there myself. Mom.

I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit on my PC.Everything works just fine till I install the Graphics Driver for it (model : nVidia GeForce GT 520) .
After installation of tht driver, it asks for restart,which I do.
The problem starts then, after the boot screen and splashscreen, the monitor says 'No signal' (Samsung syncmaster).
I tried working blindly when I found out tht there is activity going on,I can shut-down and all,but its not visible. So I restart. After few such restarts, I have to do Windows Startup Repair,which does system restore and then it works. But drivers are not there. If I install,same thing repeats.
What is hapenning!? Driver is auto-scan download from official website.
What am I doing wrong.Can someone help me? Please!?

I would do it manually. Go to Nividia Drivers, put in the info needed and click on search. When the version come up, down load and install it.
Does your mobo have integrated video? If so you might have to disable the integrated one in the BIOS so when you load the Nvidia drivers you have video.

Hi Matt,
Any speedwork can help make you a quicker runner, and adds variety to a weekly schedule. I started using Fartlek for cross country races, but dont see why they cant be done occassionally for long distance runners.
What type of terrain is the marathon on (I'd presume all roads) and are there any undulations / hills? If the answer is yes, then definitely add in a fartlek session, maybe once a fortnight - either increasing speed between lamposts or landmarks (I use trees or bins) or running faster bursts up hills, with a recovery on the flat.
As for alternatives you could try pickups, running timed intervals, such as 5 x 4 mins faster running, with 2-3 mins recovery, or try a tempo run. After a good warm up, run for 20 - 25 minutes at e.g. your 1/2 pace, then have a good warm down jog.
Have a look at some of the suggestions on the top training tab too.
Do you use an mp3?
Have about ten songs that you know well on it. Choose a short circuit that takes you about 4 minutes at your marathon pace, then take exactly the time of each song to complete each circuit. Throw in a short song to really get a sweat on.
The flatness of the course is irrelevant. Fartlek and hill work are not there solely to prepare you for hills, they make you push your body in a different way, and improve a range of things, from lactic threshold to running form.
Doing hills is beneficial whatever the race profile.
I struggle with speedwork outside as can never quite get my distances right. Do you get the same benefit if you do speed work on the treadmill? And what kind of distances are best? As long as 1km fast then slow or something shorter?
First of all, you can train on atreadmill, and it is the only type of training I would consider on a treadmill, as any other run just gets boring. You will not however get the same benefit as from running outdoors, as numerous posts on these forums explain.
As to the type of excercise itself, there are lots of them, I am not going to start long explanations, but direct you to the articles on this site, starting for example with
The key is to vary them.

The league match will now begin one hour earlier than previously scheduled with the official start time now set for 1 p.m. (EDT). The change is due to the weather conditions, which will likely force the match to be played inside the facility.
GVSU and Ferris are both currently tied for second place in the GLIAC standings heading into Tuesday's showdown with identical 5-1 league marks. The Lakers are 18-6 overall while the Bulldogs maintain a 10-6 record and have won five of their last six outings to date. Both squads suffered their lone GLIAC losses to league-leading Northwood (5-0) with match scores of 8-1 apiece.
Additionally, FSU is currently ranked fourth while the Lakers are sixth in the most recent (April 6) Campbell's Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Midwest Regional Rankings.
Last season, the Bulldogs recorded a 6-3 regular-season road win over the Lakers in Allendale (3/21/08), but dropped a 5-1 decision in a rematch during the GLIAC Tournament Semifinals (4/19/08) on a neutral court at Midland, Mich.
Tuesday's match is the final regular-season contest for both teams prior to this weekend's GLIAC Tournament, which will be held at the Midland Community Tennis Center on Saturday and Sunday (April 18-19). The official pairings for the league tournament will be announced later this week.

I'm the first to say that I don't really cook...it's not that I can't, it's just my perfectionist mentality does not enjoy it. On occasion, I do get really inspired and decide to whip up a dish...generally this happens when I'm aware that I can't go out and order it AND when the recipe is seemingly simple and uses mostly ingredients that I already have.
Such was the case with this Korean Sticky Chicken that I came across (oddly) while looking through Twitter. The picture was mouthwatering and the recipe was relatively simple = done deal! Here is the recipe for the sweet and spicy Korean Sticky Chicken courtesy of Pickled Plum with a few of my adaptions (listed in italic) that really added a nice flavor kick!
Korean Sticky Chicken
- 1 pound skinless and boneless chicken breasts, sliced into medium-large chunks
- 2 Tbsp Korean red pepper/chili flakes (gochugaru) *If you can't find this, 3 Tbsp of gochujang (Korean hot pepper paste) can be used as well...thats actually what I used and it turned out great (see tips below if you use gochujang).
- 1 Tbsp grapeseed oil, or other neutral oil *I used coconut oil
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp rice vinegar
- 1½ Tbsp honey
- 2 Tbsp Sriracha sauce
- 2 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp sesame seeds
- 2 scallions, finely chopped
- Put the chicken pieces on a sheet of parchment paper and sprinkle Korean red pepper flake (gochugaru) on top. Rub the chicken pieces until they are well coated.
- In a large pan over medium high heat, add oil, garlic and chicken and cook on each side for two minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- In the same pan over medium heat, add soy sauce, rice vinegar and honey and cook for one minute, until the sauce is bubbling.
- Return chicken to the pan and coat on all sides for about 2 minutes, until sauce thickens.
- Sprinkle sesame seeds, stir one last time to coat evenly and turn the heat off.
- Transfer Korean Sticky Chicken to a bowl or a plate and top with chopped scallions. Serve immediately with rice.
*If using gochujang: Cut the chicken into chunks and bypass step 1 beginning instead with step 2. When you get to step 3, add the 3 Tbsp of gochujang along with the other ingredients until the sauce bubbles. Continue the rest of the recipe as listed.
*For less spice forgo the Sriracha, you can always serve it on the side of the meal to adjust your spice level.

This next-generation water filter delivers crisp, clean water, minimalist good looks, and a subscription service that means you never have to deal with stickers or timers again—the company delivers new filters to your door every two months. A biodegradable, organic filter made of silk and food-based plastic means youll never have those pesky black flecks again (or the guilt of throwing away a bulky landfill filter). Plus, the glass carafe is so stylish its a worthy addition to your dinner table—and has a beveled edge for an extraneat pour.
First and foremost I love the Soma. From the design to the function I think it's great. I will say though that it can be a bit awkward and maybe too heavy for some. Also, I am just assuming that it is filtering out those unwanted "things" that are found in tap water - Hopefully I am right. The only thing that I really do not like is how you take apart the top. I feel like I am on the verge of breaking it every time I clean it. However, and again, I love it.4
I received a free Soma when they first started the company as a giveaway. I was very excited to receive it. The design is sleek and modern, however the first 8 or so times I used it, the water tasted funky. I'd definitely recommend soaking the filter much longer than instructions dictate.4
I recently started using the Soma water carafe and soon after bought their pitcher too. I love them both! My water is clean, odorless and tastes great. I love these products because of their simple and beautiful design. I always get compliments whenever I have them out on the table at home. In addition to having a great product Soma is a sustainably conscious company who cares about their impact on the world. Knowing part of every filter purchase is donated to charity:water, an organization who is working to bring clean drinking water to underdeveloped places around the world makes this product that much better. I know what all my friends and family are getting for their birthdays this year :)5
Look cool on the counter top
Water taste good
Fits in fridge
No clue where to order the filters
Constantly having to refill
Kind hard to pour
I like it enough to keep it, but where do the filters come from? Make it easier to order. Should have been more automated when I ordered the unit.
This water filter is incredibly unpleasant to use. The issue is that they spent more time advertising their design than actually perfecting it.
You will constantly spill water because it collects at the top of the mechanism or gets trapped between the glass and plastic housing. Even worse you will splash it all over your kitchen when you go to refill it due to the fact that the spout cover 'sticks' instead of depressing to let the water in.
The height of the filter will probably prevent you from fitting it in most shelves of your fridge, if you can fit it at all (truly this will only fit in a "big" fridge - like one with french doors). Even if you can fit it, you will realize how inefficient the circular footprint is.
I bought this filter for one reason: it has a glass body instead of plastic. Unfortunately its literally a chore to use. Dont buy.
Love the look. Yes it might be tricky to poor but we like the look and it's an excuse to get us to drink more water. Without it there's nothing else more refreshing in sight.
Some complain it spills. Haven't had trouble yet but it's never that full when I use it. Overall, I like it and all our other friends like theirs too. Nice for a couple.

Director: Jonathan Levine
Stars: Ben Kingsley, Josh Peck, Famke Janssen, Olivia Thirlby, Mary Kate Olsen, Method Man
Vacation destination: Fire Island
For Luke (Peck), a single summer for shirking responsibility remains after high school graduation, a terrifying concept that leads his friends to flee Manhattan for their final getaway before college begins, and leaves Luke alone in Manhattan. It wouldn't be a vacation if he actually works, so rather than tainting his time off, Luke sells pot to make ends meet and finds his best client in his therapist (Kingsley).
Lame attempts at slang aside, The Wackness is a surprisingly affecting story about how Luke and his therapist connect on a trip to Fire Island, where they find their shared failures in love (Luke with the shrink's daughter, and the shrink with his wife) and a little marijuana, and a few good mixtapes help them connect, despite doc not being natural with modern-day slang.

A week blasting around Italy has demonstrated the very best and very worst of Europe in an admittedly very tasteful package.
The global financial crisis has hit Italy like a fiscal sledge to the face, and while some judicial road maintenance could certainly help create a less jarring autostrade experience in places, and the ridiculous number of speed cameras on said highways would seem more like an actual safety move than a beggar with his bowl out, in general the locals really know what they're doing.
The skill set of the average Italian at the wheel is significantly more advanced than New Zealanders - drivers seem extremely aware of what is going on around them and tend not to get underfoot - but there are areas where we've got them beat.
There is an overwhelming reticence to use indicators, a tendency to wave their arms about and shout, and an inability to stay in a lane.
Driving out of Bologna on the way to the Ghibli launch that Driven would have taken part in by time you read this, an extremely wide piece of road which could have easily taken three lanes each way had a centre line that occasionally appeared and was without doubt one of the most interesting displays of Euro road use I've seen.
Drivers simply went wherever they wanted, where Kiwis are more likely to form orderly queues and progressed with the occasional toot.
But the Bologna Death Race saw bikes, buses, those waspy little scooters, trucks, pedestrians and cars fighting for position.
Sure, if you were coming through there was some room made, but the lack of order was simply terrifying for someone used to the tamer New Zealand roads.
Speed limits on the autostrade were well-set and despite the revenue-chasing cams made a lot more sense than ours. Fast, wide and straight stretches came with 130km/h limits, while other areas were set at either 70, 90 or 100 km/h.
Traffic flowed well, especially with trucks forced to lower speed limits and legislated out of the fast lanes, but on big hills slow lanes almost became truck parking lots as dozens of rigs slowed to a crawl, often behind less powerful machines, forcing cars into the fast lane that should never have been there - like little C1s and Kangoos which are valve-bouncing by 130km/h.
What road rules have you encountered while travelling that could be applied well in New Zealand? Let us know at below.

Fujifilm is proud to announce the FinePix XP50, the latest model in the XP series of all-weather compact cameras. Following on from the FinePix XP30, the new model offers better image quality for both stills and movie capture, an LCD screen with improved visibility and a body with ergonomic styling for no loss of grip, even when wet. Plus, with a 14.4 mega-pixel CMOS sensor optimized for rapid response times — the FinePix XP50 is ideal for all-action photography on land or sea.
Like its predecessor, the FinePix XP50 is outstandingly durable. It's waterproof to a depth of 5 m and can capture both movies and still images underwater. The camera's casing will withstand shocks or drops from a height of 1.5 m while cold environments are also no problem for this hardwearing device. The FinePix XP50 can withstand temperatures down to −10°C and dust is brushed aside with all the camera's access points specially sealed for ultimate protection.
Maximizing durability hasn't forced compromised image quality. The FinePix XP50 boasts a 14 mega-pixel CMOS sensor and a new image processor for impressive pictures. ISO sensitivity up to 3200 and CMOS Shift Image Stabilization ensures that users' shots remain crisp and sharply focused, even when capturing pictures in low-light environments. Plus, the FinePix XP50 also has a micro HDMI output to connect the camera to an HDTV to see both images and movie in High Definition.
In addition to the premium image quality offered by the FinePix XP50's sensor and processor, the camera's lens system will support users in their pursuit of the holiday photos.
A 5x wide-angle optical zoom (28 - 140 mm equivalent to a 35 mm camera) gives plenty of picture taking versatility, plus the 9 cm minimum focus distance lets photographers fill the frame with detail and vibrant color. It's not just the camera's tough casing that's built to survive: the lens also has a special water repellent coating to help minimize water droplets that can obscure or blur images.
In addition to high-resolution 14 mega-pixel stills, the FinePix XP50 can capture 1080p HD movie at 30 fps for super smooth playback with the new processor helping to minimize distortion. Want to pack more into a single picture? The FinePix XP50 also has Fujifilm's Motion Panorama 360 mode, which automatically stitches together individual images captured in a single sweep across a scene to create one panoramic picture. The user can choose to capture still images continuously at a rate of up to 10 fps to ensure that every moment is recorded in detail.
As well as the camera's durability, several other features make the FinePix XP50 the partner for action-filled adventures or extreme holidays. On the back of the camera, the super-bright 2.7-inch LCD is easy to view even on a sunlit beach. In addition to the improved brightness levels a unique Anti Reflection Coating protects the LCD screen. This reduces distracting reflections, which can prevent the composition of images or obscure the user's view when playing back stills and movies.
A double lock on the access hatch keeps the memory card, battery, USB and mini HDMI cable connection ports safely protected from water, dust or dirt.
Available in black, blue, green, orange and silver, the FinePix XP50's exterior has also been updated for both a more stylish appearance and an improved, easy to hold surface that make it easy for users to maintain control over the camera's features even when both the camera and user are underwater.

Updated on February 11, 2014 to reflect recent changes to requirements and effective dates.
It's official: the new healthcare reform is not going away. Not only was the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act upheld by the Supreme Court last spring, but the IRS also released the regulations with some rules specifically for educational organizations like school districts.
The preparations are beginning now for many school districts who are realizing the far-reaching effects of the mandate on part-time employees — including substitute teachers.
Keep reading to learn some of the key points of the Affordable Care Act and why now is a crucial time to prepare.
Frontline Technologies does not provide tax or legal advice. The regulations are constantly changing and we encourage you to consult your tax or legal counsel for advice specific to your district.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act — Yep, it's a mouthful. Which is probably why most districts refer to it as PPACA, the Affordable Care Act, ACA or just "Obamacare." PPACA was officially passed in March 2010 but activities were mostly at a standstill until the Supreme Court upheld the law in March 2012.
Employer Shared Responsibility — Also known as the Employer Mandate or the deceptively cute "Play or Pay" provision, this portion of the bill specifies that employers must provide affordable health coverage to full-time employees and their dependents or face a penalty.
Large Employer — While it might not seem that big, "large employer" has been defined as any employer with 50 or more full-time employees, including full-time equivalents (FTEs).
Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) — A full-time employee is now defined as any employee working an average of more than 30 hours a week or 130 hours a month. Part-time employee hours also count toward your total: you add up the total hours worked in a month by part-time (under 30 hours) employees and divide by 120 to get a "Full-Time Equivalent" count to add toward your total. FTEs count when determining your "large employer" status but do not count toward any penalties.
Look-Back Measurement Method — To determine whether or not a part-time employee qualifies for benefits, districts can choose a 3-12 month "look-back period." If the average hours worked in this "measurement period" come to 30 or more, the employee is eligible for benefits in the next "stability period." We'll look in a minute at some special calculations for subs.
The Exchange — Don't provide your employees with insurance? Well, then your employees might go over to a state (or federal) exchange where they can purchase health insurance if they qualify for a premium tax credit. And there's a lot of rules about that, too – but let's keep going for now.
You've got the terms down — now let's jump into some of the key points of the healthcare reform that affect school districts and subs.
Here are just a few of the regulations that might affect the way your school district handles substitute teachers.
Effective Date: First, the employer mandate reporting requirements were delayed until January 1, 2015. Now, the Obama administration has granted employers with between 50 and 99 employees until January 1, 2016, to comply with the employer mandate. These organizations will still be required to report on employees and coverage in 2015, but penalties will not apply until 2016.
Also, the regulations include transition relief for employers with fiscal year plans, which delays the implementation of the requirements for those employers until the start of their actual fiscal year in 2015.
Employer Mandate: Districts must provide affordable health benefits to all full-time employees (employees who work an average of 30 or more hours a week or 130 or more hours a month).
Penalties: If you do not provide affordable benefits — and at least one of your employees qualifies for a voucher to purchase insurance through an exchange — you get a penalty. How much annually? There are two categories:
1) No Coverage: $2,000 per full-time employee (not counting FTEs or the first 30 full-time employees) if at least 1 employee receives a premium tax credit for the exchange. This penalty does not apply if you offer coverage to at least 70% of full-time employees in 2015 and 95% of full-time employees, starting in 2016.
2) Unaffordable Coverage: $ per full-time employee who receives a premium tax credit (but not to exceed the penalty if you provide no coverage). Ouch.
Educational Institutions and Employment Break Periods: Ok, this part is important! The regulations include rules specific to educational organizations like school districts. Districts may not calculate "employment break periods" (like summer break) in a way that would significantly detract from an employee's overall work average. The healthcare law gives districts two options for calculating an employee's average hours worked:
1) Average the hours without including the employment break period
2) Credit the average hours from the active period to the employment break period
This clarification is significant for substitute teachers. It means you most likely cannot use those summer months when substitutes don't work to lower a substitute's average below full-time status.
Seasonal Employees: Wondering if you can count a substitute teacher as a temporary or seasonal employee? The answer is "no." The regulations make it clear that employees who work for an education organization with "employment break periods" do not count as seasonal employees.
Tracking, Tracking, Tracking — Though "Obama Care" doesn't go into effect for most districts until January 2015, it's that look-back measurement period we talked about that makes 2014 important. Districts on a calendar year will need to look 3-12 months back into 2014 to average out employee (including substitute) hours and determine if they're eligible for benefits.
If you use an automated substitute placement and absence management system with custom reporting tools, you should be able to pull reports that track a substitute teacher's hours worked per week or for any given time period. For your part-time employees, a time and attendance system would give you accurate reports on actual hours worked by any of your part-time employees on the system.
Start Planning — Get discussions going at your district and start looking at your options. For substitute teachers, some districts are considering setting subs up as independent contractors (varies by state), outsourcing subs through a staffing agency, hiring more permanent substitutes or limiting substitute hours to under 30 hours a week. Start thinking about the best options for your school district.
Follow the News — The law is still being adjusted, so keep an eye out for the updates.
Talk to Some Experts — If you work with a benefits administrator, you can get some information specific to your school district from them or from your insurance carrier. For authoritative information specific to your situation, we recommend talking to your tax expert or legal counsel.

Washington DC (rushPRnews) 09/22/11 — Newborn Coalition Applauds Action that Will Save Lives
The Newborn Coalition applauds an announcement from United Stated Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius today that formally adopts the recommendation to add Congenital Cyanotic Heart Disease (CCHD) to the Recommended Uniform Screening Panel.
The announcement addressed the public health importance of early detection of heart defects, and comes almost a full year after the Secretary's Advisory Committee on Heritable Disorders in Newborns and Children (SACHDNC) voted to recommend all newborns be screened for CCHD.
Heart defects are among the most common birth defects and are the leading cause of birth defect-related deaths. Congenital heart defects occur in 1 in 100, or one percent of live births. Approximately 25 percent of those are classified as critical CHD, requiring intervention in the first weeks or months of life. 4,000 U.S. infants die each year from heart disease. Diagnosing heart problems in newborns is often difficult with clinical examination alone – and detecting CCHD after discharge from the nursery is associated with significantly higher rates of heart-related morbidity and even death. The Secretary's statement recognizes the use of pulse oximetry as a screening tool is a simple, non-invasive, low-cost method to help detect hidden heart problems in newborns.
"This is a historic day for babies and families. We commend the Secretary and her advisory committee, along with countless advocates, medical professionals and public health leaders for recognizing the vital impact of universal screening for critical heart defects. Simply put, fewer babies will be sent home from the hospital undiagnosed – and lives will be saved," said Jim Bialick, Executive Director of the Newborn Coalition.
The Secretary's action is expected to encourage states, health care facilities and clinicians to provide this screening and continue to improve the knowledge base and implementation tactics. It also directs the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to fund research activities, and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) to fund monitoring activities and HRSA to guide the development of emerging screening standards and educational tools.
"The only thing worse than having a newborn diagnosed with heart disease is having a newborn go undiagnosed with heart disease," said Annamarie Saarinen, board chair of the Newborn Coalition, and mother of 2-year-old Eve, CCHD survivor. "We were privileged to participate in the federal working group convened by HRSA – along with many skilled and passionate medical professionals, pediatric health organizations, public health leaders, and advocates. We believe much of the early work laid the foundation for states to more fluidly adopt this screening."
The federal expert working group report has been published online in Pediatrics can be viewed here: Newborn Screening for Heart Defects
The full letter from Secretary Sebelius can be viewed on the SACHDNC website:

The Holmes HomeAddress: 437 Summit
Owner: Diana Holmes
Head hostess: Mary Brady
Florist: City Florist
"Wesley Trippett built this home. He found the clay in the backyard was perfect for making pots," Diana said of the famous Redlands potter whose work is now very collectible and difficult to find.
Holmes is the fourth owner of the two-bedroom, two-bathroom cottage. She said the interior was "pretty rugged" when she and Verne, who died a few years ago, first purchased the home.
Guests will see a completely remodeled kitchen, which was once all metal from the counter to the cupboards, and modernization throughout the entire home, including hardwood floors to replace the original spruce floors that "let the breeze through the cracks" and the bathroom that was added downstairs.
Throughout the home - which has a historic home designation from the city - are special touches of Verne's woodwork, which is part of what makes the home special to her.
"It has pieces of Verne all through it, and I raised my kids here. It is a comfortable place for me to be."
The Y Home Tour is from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Dec. 2, and all proceeds of the tour support the YMCA of the East Valley Legal Aid program which provides low-cost legal services primarily to women and families in domestic matters. The demand for these services has quadrupled since 1999.
Tickets for the tour are available online at www.ymcaeastvalley.org, by phone at 909-798-9622 and at the three YMCA branches:
- Redlands: 500 E. Citrus Ave.
- Highland: 7793 Central Ave.
- San Bernardino: 808 E. 21st St.
Cost is $25 for advance tickets, $30 on the day of the tour, and $65 for the patron package which includes the tour, brunch and VIP home access. Opportunity drawing tickets for holiday baskets donated by local businesses are also available for $1 each or 15 for $10. Drawings will be held at the close of the home tour and winners need not be present.
The YMCA is also again hosting its holiday boutique and pantry from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dec. 1 and 2 in the Roy Coble Gym at the Redlands location, 500 Citrus Ave. Entrance to the boutique and pantry are free.
