Thieves Crash SUV Into Store, Take Items
ST. LOUIS (AP) — St. Louis police are searching for two men who drove an SUV through the back door of a Rent-A-Center store and stole merchandise.
The crime happened around 3 a.m. Thursday. A witness saw a black sport utility vehicle back into a rear door. The driver and a second man ran inside and stole items. Store officials were still trying to determine what was taken.
The extent of the damage to the building has not been determined.

Floating Shelf Issue!!
Again, I did not know the exact spot for this so if moderators move it, I apologize. I am building some 29X9 inch floating shelves for my bath room. There will be nothing heavy store on these shelves. But my issue is the weird placement of the studs in my bath room. I will be able to get two of the four screws I will be installing for the bracket that the shelf slides onto, only two of them will be in studs. What would be the best way to secure these other two screws? They are going into drywall so should I use drywall anchors?
Any insight will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Also, does anyone think that having a floating shelf sticking out nine inches is going to be too long? I am just using some 1x2's and making the bracket on the wall then sliding the shelf I assembled over it. Would this be too long for this method?
Got a picture of what your trying to do.
Trying to picture how the 1 X 2's come into play as well as the "brackets".
Studs for the most part are 16 O/C center so hard to see why you can not attach directly to them.
The first one. So the part that mounts to the wall that is made of 1x2 boards which I called a "bracket" for whatever reason. That is the part I am worried about because not all the screws that go into the wall will hit a stud so I am wondering if dry wall anchors will help or what a better alternative is.
If you hit 2 studs you will be fine. Just make sure you use scres long enough to be it the stud an inch (1x2 is usually 3/4" + 1/2" drywall = 2 1/4" screw). Don't go too long with the screw because you are more likely to hit electrical or plumbing in the walls.
Floating shelves are always a little floppy unless they are planed out before the drywall goes up.
Use toggle bolts or EZ anchors for the other areas if you can't get 2 studs

By April 2009, James Whitaker had almost nine years' experience of studying and practising architecture. He had a job at one of the world's most prestigious practices, Heatherwick Studio, was about to take his final exams, and was enjoying London life. But it was a career built on shaky foundations. British building had been stagnating for a year, and his practice had been contracting. When two more clients put projects on hold, his firm made 10 architects redundant. Whitaker was one. The 28-year-old handed in his hard hat and joined the swelling numbers of ex-architects.
Instead of sinking into despondency, Whitaker, then an amateur photographer, decided to take pictures of fellow architects who had also been made redundant and who had turned their hand to something else. The subjects he found through word of mouth or by posting ads on design websites, paid tribute to the diverse interests and talents of his profession. Some former architects were teaching, others had gone into filmmaking. The portraits formed an exhibition, After Redundancy, which opens at RIBA in London today.
"After you've completed your degree and are beginning to accrue experience that goes towards your professional qualifications, you think that's it," says Whitaker. "You think you're going to be in the same job for the rest of your life. But I was the subject of circumstance and had to make the best of what I had."
Arguably, the recession hit architects hardest. "It's difficult to get the full picture, because there's a lot of self-employment in the sector," says Ruth Reed, the president of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). "But we were the first and worst affected, and that has now filtered throughout the construction industry. It's because we head up the construction process. Any downturn immediately affects us. It's getting better, but there has by no means been a full recovery." According to the Office for National Statistics, November 2009 saw the third monthly decrease in the number of architects signing on. That month, there were 1,600 architects signing on. In November 2008, the number was just 480.
In February 2009, RIBA announced that 30 per cent of architects were unemployed or underemployed. "It was becoming obvious that architecture wasn't a safe profession," explains Whitaker. "Being out of work was on the cards. You'd be mad not to wonder what you would do if you were made redundant. I wouldn't have made the leap to photography if I'd had a secure job."
The architect had no trouble finding 24 subjects working in radically different fields. "It's possibly the best profession for branching out," he says. "To be an architect you have to be a jack of all trades. Photography is an easy adaptation. Architecture is about taking pictures inside your head. The skills you need to present a design to a client are the ones you need to look at a situation and work out how you are going to represent it photographically. Architecture teaches you to be creative."
The portraits are brilliantly varied, sometimes emotional, sometimes banal moments in the subjects' working lives. Each is set up in the same way – the (former) architect is photographed in a setting of their choosing. One shows 31-year-old Sophie Teh standing outside a convenience store holding a cake stand ("I came to the cake business idea because I have so much passion for it," she says). There's 27-year-old Andrew Mobbs in a bicycle shop. The 36-year-old Sarah Akigbogun is pictured by London Bridge, staring into the distance: she is re-editing a film on the use of the Thames which she made as part of the 2006 London Architecture Biennale.
Many of Whitaker's subjects came from Edinburgh, the site of some of the recession's most asset-rich sufferers – the Royal Bank of Scotland, Halifax Bank of Scotland and Standard Life. "It seems like every practice there had to make redundancies," he explains. "It such a small city, and is so closely tied to the banks' fortunes."
Whitaker says the response to his photographs, published in the January issue of the design magazine Blueprint, has been "mostly warm". Would Whitaker return to architecture? "I would," he concludes. "I don't want to quit architecture completely, but I am really enjoying what I am doing. I would like to split my time between the fields. I'm hoping I'll come out the other side of this a much richer person – admittedly not in a financial sense."
How they went back to the drawing board: What the architects did next
Andrew Mobbs BA (Hons)
"After racing mountain bikes in my teens I decided to study engineering at college to try and get into the bike industry. At college I started riding BMX bike. I was looking out for interesting obstacles in the streets and I started noticing architecture. I studied architectural Technology in Southampton, then worked in Salisbury for two years before moving to London. I found a job at a conservation architects for three years but last June I was made redundant. After looking for architectural work, I had an offer to work in a bike shop in north London. It is not a career step I expected but it was nice to share some of my knowledge of bikes."
Andrew now works for Amanda Levete Architects.
Leisa Tough BA Arch UNSW
"I discovered I was to be made redundant on the darkest day of the year, there was ice on the canal and I walked and walked until my hands ached with cold. Within a week I was a waitress around the corner from my former studio and being yelled at by young chefs. It wasn't where I'd imagined I'd be.Needless to say there was no architecture work to be had. I came to Wapping Project, it is a favourite place in London, and flippantly over a meal asked for a waitressing position which, incredibly, led to architecture work. It was as though I'd been washed ashore. I'm inspired by this place and these people to pursue broader ambitions; to curate architectural events, return to sculpting and teaching. Architecture alone no longer seems a wise and safe path."
Leisa's visa expired and she returned to Sydney.
Adrian Welch BA (Hons) DipArch ARB
"In 2000 a former colleague from London came to see us in Edinburgh – with two kids we'd left London behind. I sketched a map of new buildings. A website was obvious – always up-to-date. I set up www.edinburgharchitecture.co.uk, and soon after glasgowarchitecture.co.uk, and more recently e-architect.co.uk. I was designing houses as the recession hit. Being made redundant I put all my energy into the site – now one of the largest architecture resources in the world."
Adrian is running his websites full time.
Josephine Leeder BA (Hons) MArch
"Losing my job the day after practical completion of my first building was harsh, though not unexpected in this climate. Since then I have been trying new recipes with the grand plan of doing vegetarian dinner parties for folk in their own home. It's probably not an ideal time for such a venture but it has been something worthwhile to keep me busy whilst I look in vain for another architecture job. My flatmates aren't complaining – they are fed pretty well out of my redundancy."
Josephine is doing a Masters in ecological design.
Liam Ross MA (Hons) MArch ARB
"Universities teach 'transferable skills'. Teaching is one. I've taught since graduating, and managed this transfer just as I was being pushed. University is quiet, especially over summer. Compared to an office, teaching work is solitary. Preparation, research and admin happen on your own. Colleagues meet every month or so to catch-up. Its nice to not have a manager. I've written a lot, and read more, but forget what constitutes a Relevant Event. I miss tea, BD and deadlines."
Liam is teaching at the University of Edinburgh.
Sophie Teh BScArch (Hons) BArch (Hons) ARB RIBA
"When I came to a crossroads about what I could do next with my career, this was my instinctive idea [a shop selling decadent cakes], but I continued exploring other options. I came back to the cake business idea because I feel so much passion for it. I'm applying my architectural experience to regenerate and regain public interest in a derelict corner of Archway for my business – mixing architecture and good food is my ultimate idea of creative and sensory indulgence."
Sophie is working part-time as an architect while developing her business plan for the cake shop.
Sam Potts BA (Hons) MA
"Architects shouldn't see redundancy as such a destructive event, but one of opportunity! We are blessed with the time to reconsider our roles and direction. Now is the perfect alibi to do something else. The Redundant Architects Recreation Association (RARA), provides an affordable studio, workshop and exhibition space to attract the redundant architect to enjoy something rarely found in a nine-to-five: a haven of total creative freedom."
Sam has returned to university for his part two.
Sarah Akigbogun BSc (Hons) Arch Eng AAdpl
"I had enjoyed my job at Alsop, so following redundancy there was a sense of loss, but beyond this, a sense of liberation. This was a marvellous opportunity to re-evaluate my practice of architecture. Since then my work has included writing, curating a film screening, doing architecture competitions and re-editing a film I had made for the 2006 Architecture Biennale. I hope this 'time out' will transform the way I practice in future."
Sarah is now working for Foster and Partners.
After Redundancy: Living in and out of Architecture, Gallery 2, RIBA, 66 Portland Place, London W1B, (12A)D, until 22 February

the tooth that scratches your unit when someone is giving you head. usually large and pronounced, may be accompanied by other phaggelteeth
The lady on the corner has one big front tooth, if you allow her to give you head, for the usual 5 dollars, you can be sure that it will not be as pleasureful as you had thought. May be accompanied by sores and bumps. It feels like someone is biting, and dragging as hard and fast as they can.
1.) one or many teeth that are slightly crooked, sometimes straying far off the trail of the other teeth. Often comes from no braces or not wearing a retainer. Very irritating to look at. Upon giving head, the tooth will scrape and injure one's genitalia.
"Patrick's girlfriend has a phaggeltooth. I bet that shit hurts. He should only do her from behind." or "Man, that chick was hot, until I saw her phaggeltooth. I couldn't stop staring at it."

CFTC: net USD longs declined
FX BAZOOKA - According to the latest CFTC report, released om Aug. 15, large speculators reduced their net USD longs from $29.41 billion on Aug. 5 to $27.00 billion on Aug. 12. This was the first decline in positions value after 3 weeks of growth. The calculation considers the US dollar contracts against the combined contracts of the euro, British pound, Japanese yen, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar and the Swiss franc.
However, the amount of USD contracts rose last week from 129K contracts to 144K contracts. The total US dollar contracts calculation takes into account more currencies: the euro, British pound, Japanese yen, Swiss franc, Canadian dollar, Australian dollar, New Zealand dollar and the Mexican peso.
EUR net short positions rebounded last week from the most bearish level since Aug. 2012, but still remain heavily bearish.

Express Scripts Raises 2013 Forecast for Second Time
Express Scripts Holding Co. (ESRX), the largest U.S. processor of prescription drug claims, raised its forecast for a second time this year on second-quarter earnings that topped analysts' estimates.
Earnings excluding one-time items were $1.12 a share in the quarter compared with the $1.10 average of 22 analysts' estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Net income increased to $543 million, or 66 cents a share, from $149.6 million, or 18 cents, a year earlier, the St. Louis-based company said today in a statement.
Express Scripts, which bought competitor Medco Health Solutions Inc. for $29 billion last year, manages drug benefits for insurers and employers and sells drugs through its own mail-order pharmacy. Even with the acquisition, Express Scripts faces aggressive competitors such as Catamaran Corp. (CCT), which beat the bigger company for a contract to cover 180,000 workers at Target Corp (TGT) starting in April.
"As we head toward 2014 and the introduction of insurance exchanges, additional costly regulations, escalation of brand drug prices and increased specialty drug utilization, our clients face unprecedented challenges to manage the cost and complexity of the pharmacy benefit," George Paz, Express Scripts' chairman and chief executive officer, said in the statement. "Our clinical specialization, advanced application of the behavioral sciences, and ability to leverage actionable data allow us to drive down costs, reduce waste and improve health in ways no other company can."
Future Plans
Investors have been anxious for Express Scripts to "more clearly lay out its views" on the industry and its own strategy, including how the company might "deploy its substantial free cash flow," analyst Thomas Gallucci of Lazard Capital Markets in New York said in a July 25 note to clients.
Express Scripts warned in November that analysts' expectations of profit growth were too ambitious, saying that it faced pressure including the loss of members and lower drug utilization. The company then provided a 2013 full-year profit forecast that exceeded analysts' lowered estimates.
Express Scripts today raised its full-year forecast excluding one-time items to $4.26 a share to $4.34 a share, from $4.23 to $4.33 a share projected in April.
Second-quarter sales declined to $26.4 billion, from $27.5 billion. Analysts had estimated $25.5 billion.

Fish Fumet for Classic Fish Chowder
Fish heads, tails, and bones can be found at most fish counters. Use this recipe to make our Classic Fish Chowder.
- Yield: Makes 2 quarts
Source: Martha Stewart Living, August 2008
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 shallot, thinly sliced
- 2 leeks, thinly sliced and rinsed well
- 2 fennel bulbs, coarsely chopped
- 2 celery stalks, coarsely chopped
- 2 pounds hake or cod heads, tails, and bones, cut into 2-inch pieces
- 5 whole black peppercorns
- 1 fresh bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
- 3 stems fresh tarragon
- 3 stems fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 3 stems fresh chervil
- 15 fresh chives
Heat a 12-quart stockpot over low heat. Add oil, shallot, leeks, fennel, and celery, and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 30 minutes. (Do not let vegetables brown.)
Add fish heads, tails, and bones, and cook until just starting to release their juices, 10 to 15 minutes. Add peppercorns, bay leaf, coriander, and water to cover bones by 1 inch. Raise heat to high, and simmer, then immediately reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer gently for 30 minutes, skimming any foam that rises to the surface; discard foam. (A hard boil will break the fish apart and make your fumet cloudy and bitter.)
Turn off heat, and add tarragon, parsley, chervil, and chives. Cover, and let steep for 20 minutes.
Strain fumet through a fine sieve lined with cheesecloth set over a large container. Cover, and refrigerate for up to 1 day (or freeze for up to 3 months; thaw before using).

2nd attempt gate.
3 Attachment(s)
Ok so here the link to my 1st gate.
& I had a couple of issues with it so now we re-did it & It seems much more solid, than the last one, but now I'm looking for ideas on what to do with it?
I do have a dog & want to keep him in the yard & also keep strange dogs out of my yard..
So I'm looking for ideas...?
That looks much better---the gate is kind of tight and may bind when it swells in the rain or sags a bit---
Gates need to be 'loose on the hole'---about 3/4" narrower than the opening.
The butt joints at the corners are a rather weak type of joint for a heavy gate-----adding metal L bracket to the corners will stiffen that right up.
Looking good---gates are a challenge to build---that one looks like a winner----just add some metal Ls to the corners and it will serve you well.
As Oh Mike mentioned, L metal brackets at the corners would be great for the gate... you can find grk fasteners at box stores and they sell a heavy duty 1 1/2 screw that I've used to put the L hangers on gates/deck access doors etc...
Outside frame still built wrong.
You have left the end grain exposed.
To piece should have ran all the way across the whole length.
The end grain is where the wood is going to soak up the most water and rot, and expand more.
Without it being narrower there's no room for the door to swing.
1 Attachment(s)
Some finishing touches to the gate to keep the dog in & others out. :thumbsup:
I like the natural wood theme I was able to keep.
Threw a ball this evening & it seems the dog dove right through the decrotive wood, So now, I've gotta come up with another plan?
I'm thinking Chicken wire on the back side?

Barwon Hotel
The town's raison d'etre, the Barwon Hotel (1842), with a more recent facade, is still standing near the river in Main St. Inside is a collection of historical artefacts.
Bridge and Picnic Spots
Near the hotel is a three-span bluestone arch bridge (1867) over the Barwon River which is considered one of the most impressive stone structures in Victoria. The commemorative stone is undated as it was hurriedly prepared so as to be ready for an opening by the Duke of Edinburgh in 1867. It is the third bridge on the site which was an important link on the Geelong-Warrnambool Rd. There are a number of picnic spots beside the river.
Anglican Churches
Another survivor is Thomas Austin's original town church (1846). It adjoins the hall of the second Anglican church which dates from 1860 and which is located in Barwon Terrace.
Barwon Park
Austin's 'Barwon Park' homestead is 3 km north of town on the Inverleigh Rd which is signposted off the Princes Highway. It is a two-storey bluestone mansion with 42 rooms and a distinctive cast-iron verandah and a profusion of delicate cast-iron lacework. It originally accommodated Austin, his wife and their eleven children.
The project was apparently prompted by Mrs Austin's embarrassment when, in 1867, she had to accommodate the Duke of Edinburgh in the original house. When the new homestead was completed in 1869 it was the finest and most celebrated mansion in western Victoria. A special ship was chartered to convey the house's cedar, oak, marble and stained glass from England. There is an elaborate entry hallway, a fine oak and cedar staircase and a high-quality crafted interior. It is open from 11.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m. on Wednesdays and Sundays, tel: (03) 5267 2209.
Other Historic Buildings - Shops
Alexandra's Antiques and Art Gallery is located in a 19th-century bank building on Main St, tel: (03) 5267 2605. The Riverside Gallery is situated within the old red-brick public library building (1893) in Main St. It is open from Friday to Sunday, 10.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m., tel: (03) 5267 2919. The Winchelsea Shire Hall Tea Rooms is a cafe-restaurant with arts and crafts in Hesse St which does a roaring trade. They are situated in a fine bluestone building (1908) which originally served as the shire hall, tel: (03) 5267 2769.
Lake Murdeduke, to the north-west of town, and Lake Modewarre, signposted off the Princes Highway 11 km east of town, are popular fishing areas with redfin and rainbow trout to be had.
Commercial Gardens
Otway Roses is an enclosed rose garden surrounded by the Wormbete Forest with its own cafe. It is located at 450 Wormbete Station Rd to the south-east of town. They are open from 11.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. on weekends from November 1 to May 1, tel: (03) 5288 7382.
Killarney Park Lavender Farm (80 acres) are also located on Wormbete Station Rd at the edge of the Otway Ranges, and they are also open on weekends, from 10.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m., tel: (02) 5288 7312.
5 km south of Winchelsea on the Mathieson Rd are Country Dahlias where the gardens are open from February to April.
'Ingleby' was the primary homestead of the Armytage family's pastoral empire, established in 1836. The Belgian-born George Armytage sailed for Van Diemans Land to make his fortune in 1815 as he resented a dependency on relatives occasioned by the Napoleonic Wars. He built that colony's first flour mill and sailed into Port Phillip Bay in 1834.
Today, cottage accommodation is available on the property, 200 metres from the two-storey 17-room bluestone homestead (1860) which replaced an earlier stone house that is now in ruins. To the rear is an elegant courtyard for coaches. There is an unusually decorated bluestone woolshed (1882-83) which was, at the time, one of Victoria's largest and arguably the first in the state to install shearing machines. Farm tours and activities are seasonal. It is located at 765 Ingleby Rd, 14 km west of Winchelsea, tel: (03) 5267 2415.
'Tarndwarncoort', located off the Warncoort Cemetery Rd, is another fine 19th-century homestead. It is built primarily of bluestone although freestone was used in the initial stages. Local blackwood was used for the furniture. The Polwarth breed of sheep was developed on this property in the late 19th century. Today it offers holiday cottage accommodation, tel: (03) 5233 6241.
Other Historic Homesteads
'Wormbete' (6 km south of town in Deans Marsh Rd) is an impressive homestead which was recently owned by Alan Bond. It may be open for inspection by prior arrangement.
'Murdeduke' is a fine bluestone homestead which is located by the lake of the same name. It can occasionally be visited as part of the open gardens scheme.
The Sea-Mist Palomino Stud furnishes horseriding, accommodation and a BYO restaurant. They are located on Wensleydale Station Rd, Winchelsea South, tel: (03) 5288 7255.
Kalinda Tours offer personalised tours of wine regions, the Grampians, the Twelve Apostles, Ballarat, Phillip Island and virtually anywhere else in Victoria (a two-person minimum), tel: (03) 5267 2581.

Having raced Miatas for years, I can say that they can corner to the point of making your neck sore (no kidding)! Their light weight is easy on even the stickiest of race tires too, which is a bonus. Mazda actually made a coupe version as a test (genuine roof, not just a drop on hard top). I cant imagine how much better that car would have cornered with the additional structural stiffness. But they decided very few people would want a Miata with a permenant roof, other than racers, which was probably the right call.
Too bad the Z3 member matched their level of performance. That was a major lost opportunity on BMW's part. It is strange how two cars that look so similar on paper could end up so different.
Sorry, but I still have a soft spot for Miatas! If they had made a NA version with a small V6 and about 100 more HP, I probably would never have bought a BMW.

Russell Brand not inviting dad for his wedding
Brand"s parents separated when he was just six months old and he was raised by his mother single handedly. His father married twice after the divorce and Brand, in an interview, stated that he had a strange relationship with his father, whom he saw sporadically.
Ronald Brand, who is believed to be delighted by his son"s wedding, rubbished the news of him being left out saying that no one has been invited since it's going to be a very small wedding. Reports say that Brand"s father has been very happy that he's found the woman and wants to settle down.
Brand has been dating American singer and songwriter Katy Perry since September 2009. Brand proposed to her in India last December and they subsequently announced their engagement in January 2010. The couple is flying guests to a secret location, believed to be in India to watch them exchange vows. The week-long wedding celebrations will be attended by both of Perry's parents.

Kai Po Che, based on a novel by author Chetan Bhagat, has opened to great reviews. It's not often that a film turns out better than the book it is adapted from. When a screenplay is better than the novel, you have a winner on hand. A still from the film 3 Idiots, again loosely based on Bhagat's '5 Point Someone'. The film went on to become one of the biggest box office successes of all time.
Black Friday, Anurag Kashyap's 2004 adaptation of author S Hussain Zaidi's 'Black Friday - The True Story of the Bombay Bomb Blasts', was probably his career's best work till date. It won the Grand Jury Prize at the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles and was a nominee for the Best Film (Golden Leopard) award at the Locarno International Film Festival.
Samuel Hopkins Adams' 'Night Bus' was remade as 'Dil Hai Ke Manta Nahin' an endearing film chronicling the travel of a reporter who meets an heiress who's fled home on a bus. The book was adapted into 'It Happened One Night' in Hollywood and remains a popular film even today.
Author RK Narayan's 1958 novel 'The Guide' was adapted into 'Guide' in 1965 by Vijay Anand and starred Dev Anand and Waheeda Rehman. While the book is widely revered, it come nowhere close to the adulation earned by the film that is considered a cult classic.
Kai Po Che, directed by Abhishek Kapoor, tells the story of three friends in Gujarat amid the backdrop of the sectarian violence, an epic cricket series and a devastating earthquake. It's adapted from author Chetan Bhagat's novel 'The Three Mistakes of My Life'.
While Moti Nandi's 'Kony' was a good novel, it's National Award winning adaptation in 1986 starring Soumitra Chatterjee and Sriparna Banerjee, was a film that inspired many sports persons fighting adversities.
The whimsical film '7 Khoon Maaf' was a black comedy directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, starring Priyanka Chopra in the lead role and adapted from Ruskin Bond's short story 'Susanna's Seven Husbands'. While it did not claim great box office gains, it was appreciated for it's seven separate stories that narrated a woman's search for security and love.
'Slumdog Millionaire', the Academy Award winning 2008 British drama directed by Danny Boyle, was an adaptation of the novel 'Q&A' by Indian author and diplomat Vikas Swarup.
One of Bollywood's big successes in 1970 was 'Kati Patang' directed by Shakti Samanta, adapted from author and screenwriter Gulshan Nanda's novel, which was again an Indian adaptation of 'I Married a Dead Man' by William Irish.
Masoom was director Shekhar Kapur's debut film in 1983 and is till today a critically acclaimed movie adapted from 'Man, Woman and Child' by author Erich Segal. It was a beautiful coming-of-age story laden with nuances in the Indian family context.
'The Namesake' was a sensitive adaptation of the novel by the same name by Jhumpa Lahiri and directed by Mira Nair. An NRI couple played brilliantly by Irrfan and Tabu try to trace their roots for their American-born children Gogol (Kal Penn) and Sonia (Sahira Nair).
'Shaheb Bibi Golam', a novel by Bengali author Bimal Mitra, formed the basis of one of Bollywood's everlasting classics 'Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam' produced by Guru Dutt and directed by Abrar Alvi.
'Sharmilee', the 1971 hit produced by Subodh Mukherjee and directed by Samir Ganguly was adapted from a novel by Gulshan Nanda. The film starred Raakhee in a double role, Shashi Kapoor, Narendra Nath, Naseer Hussain, Iftekhar, SN Banerjee, Anita Guha and Asit Sen.

Development and characterisation of tri- and tetra-nucleotide polymorphic microsatellite markers for skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis)
Dammannagoda Acharige, Sudath Terrence, Chand, Vincent, & Mather, Peter Barclay (2012) Development and characterisation of tri- and tetra-nucleotide polymorphic microsatellite markers for skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis). Ceylon Journal of Science (Bio. Sci), 41(1), pp. 11-17.
Accepted Version
(PDF 100kB)
View at publisher (open access)
Skipjack tuna (katsuwonus pelamis) (SJT) is the largest tuna fishery in all the major oceans around the world, and the largest marine fishery in Sri Lanka. Knowledge of genetic population structure and effective population size of SJT in the Indian Ocean and other major oceans, however, is still lacking for better management practices and conservation strategies. We developed microsatellite genetic markers using SJT around Sri Lanka in the Indian Ocean, and characterise one tri- and seven tetra-nucleotide microsatellite loci isolated from enriched genomic libraries from SJT, to provide tools for addressing both conservation and fisheries management questions. An analysis of these eight microsatellite markers in two populations of SJT from eastern Sri Lanka (n = 44) and the Maldives Islands (n = 53) showed that all eight microsatellites were polymorphic with an average number of alleles per locus of 11.80 (range 5-27). Expected heterozygosities at marker loci ranged from 0.450 to 0.961. These markers are being used currently to characterise population structure and extent of natural gene flow in SJT populations from the eastern and western Indian Ocean. No significant linkage disequilibrium was detected among any loci pairs.

House training not working!
Ive had my chiweenie for 2 months. He is now 5 months old. We started crate training on day 1 and hes doing ok with that. I work 8-5 but I get to come home for lunch and let him out. 2 out of 5 days a week I'll come home to a wet crate. Sometimes Ill wake up to a wet crate. Ive scheduled his feedings and water intake, & pick up the water dish 2 hrs before bedtime. I take him out about every hour & I take him to the same potty spot. I dont scold him when I catch him in the act, I startle him to get his attention then scoop him up and take him out. I live on the 3rd floor though so I cant get him to his spot as fast as Id like. I praise and give him a treat when he goes. Hes easily learning commands so no mental issues. Theres no health issues, Ive already had him checked out. He's rarely out of my sight and he'll go right in front of me. I got a bell for the door 2 weeks ago and I lift his paw and make him ring it before outside. I use ammonia free cleaner. What else do i need to do?!?

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
For once, I am stumped. Try a smaller crate and continue to crate train him. Does he give no signs of sniffing before he goes? Is he lifting his leg yet? On your next day off, take the FULL day with you tethered to him keep your regular feeding, walking, potty schedule. See what his cues are. If you do not see any yourself, call your local behaviorist to see if they can see and give you new ideas. Good Luck.

One of the best things I can reccomend is walking him further. They sometimes need to pee more than once and like to pee outside and say this is Mine! Don't get discouraged, chiweenies can be remarkably stubborn, Remy didn't stop having accidents till we started taking him one one long walk morning and evening. Since then No accidents at all! Yay for Remy!

RALEIGH, NC (AP) — The Raleigh Police Department is increasing the number of police vehicles powered by propane gas.
The News & Observer of Raleigh reported that the move comes after a two-year test of the vehicles.
Raleigh City Council has agreed to spend nearly $200,000 to convert 30 police vehicles to propane. The city has 20 patrol cars already using propane.
Capt. Doug Brugger says the 20 cars using propane work just as well as gasoline powered vehicles.
Propane costs less than half as much as gasoline per gallon. The city has saved about $170,000 on fuel costs on the 20 cars using propane now, including federal incentives.
The U.S. Energy Department says propane releases less carbon monoxide and other pollutants. Most propane is made in the United States.

The Kreutzer Sonata and Other Stories HTML version
The Kreutzer Sonata
Chapter I
Travellers left and entered our car at every stopping of the train. Three persons, however,
remained, bound, like myself, for the farthest station: a lady neither young nor pretty,
smoking cigarettes, with a thin face, a cap on her head, and wearing a semi-masculine
outer garment; then her companion, a very loquacious gentleman of about forty years,
with baggage entirely new and arranged in an orderly manner; then a gentleman who held
himself entirely aloof, short in stature, very nervous, of uncertain age, with bright eyes,
not pronounced in color, but extremely attractive,--eyes that darted with rapidity from
one object to another.
This gentleman, during almost all the journey thus far, had entered into conversation with
no fellow-traveller, as if he carefully avoided all acquaintance. When spoken to, he
answered curtly and decisively, and began to look out of the car window obstinately.
Yet it seemed to me that the solitude weighed upon him. He seemed to perceive that I
understood this, and when our eyes met, as happened frequently, since we were sitting
almost opposite each other, he turned away his head, and avoided conversation with me
as much as with the others. At nightfall, during a stop at a large station, the gentleman
with the fine baggage--a lawyer, as I have since learned--got out with his companion to
drink some tea at the restaurant. During their absence several new travellers entered the
car, among whom was a tall old man, shaven and wrinkled, evidently a merchant,
wearing a large heavily-lined cloak and a big cap. This merchant sat down opposite the
empty seats of the lawyer and his companion, and straightway entered into conversation
with a young man who seemed like an employee in some commercial house, and who
had likewise just boarded the train. At first the clerk had remarked that the seat opposite
was occupied, and the old man had answered that he should get out at the first station.
Thus their conversation started.
I was sitting not far from these two travellers, and, as the train was not in motion, I could
catch bits of their conversation when others were not talking.
They talked first of the prices of goods and the condition of business; they referred to a
person whom they both knew; then they plunged into the fair at Nijni Novgorod. The
clerk boasted of knowing people who were leading a gay life there, but the old man did
not allow him to continue, and, interrupting him, began to describe the festivities of the
previous year at Kounavino, in which he had taken part. He was evidently proud of these
recollections, and, probably thinking that this would detract nothing from the gravity
which his face and manners expressed, he related with pride how, when drunk, he had
fired, at Kounavino, such a broadside that he could describe it only in the other's ear.

Shanghai Pictures
Shanghai takes its place among the world's biggest and the most booming urban areas. While the city epitomizes a modern urban China, its history is most intriguing indeed. In particular, it was a paradise for adventurers during the 1930s and 40s. Tycoons, knights-errant and beauties came here to fulfill their dreams, and countless moving stories were staged. Owing to its strategic and coastal location, this is endowed with rich tourist attractions related to its long and complicated history. Detailed information about Shanghai Travel Guide

|My first outdoor lead. Good everything to last bolt, then a less-than-solid move to the right, then a big mantle on to the tiny shelf that is the end of the route.

|Anyone know what's up with the anchor on this route? I was here in October 2014 and climbed it, and there was a nice 2-bolt anchor at the top that looked to be in fine shape. As of this morning (Jan. 1, 2015) there's a single bolt with a rap ring, and the holes where the previous bolts were are plugged with epoxy. I moved right onto the anchor for...whatever the next line right is, but that made for some interesting cleaning on rappel afterwards.

|I just climbed this on 05/05/2016 and the one hanger with a ring was still the only anchor I saw. The anchor to the right for the route 'unknown' is within a few feet to the right though. That's the one I used.

From above video:
The bond market thinks Warren Buffett is a safer investment than President Barack Obama.
Bloomberg analyzed the bonds of Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc. along with other major businesses and found that investors wanted a slightly higher interest rate from government bonds.
That means investors think the government is a higher risk.
"It's a slap upside the head of the government," said Mitchell Stapley, the chief fixed-income officer in Grand Rapids, Michigan, at Fifth Third Asset Management, which oversees $22 billion. "It could be the moment where hopefully you realize that risk is beginning to creep into your credit profile and the costs associated with that can be pretty scary."
Government securities usually have the lowest rates, because they are considered so safe. However, the Obama administration is projected to add nearly $10 trillion in new federal debt in the next decade.
And that means Washington's credit rating could start to slip.
"America will use about 7 percent of taxes for debt payments in 2010 and almost 11 percent in 2013, moving "substantially" closer to losing its AAA rating," Moody's Investors Service said last week.

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
More information is needed to really address this. Chances are, you need to take the cat to the vet. Are the cat's eyes runny too? If so, it's probably some sort of upper respiratory something or another. Your vet will be able to better figure out what it is and how best to treat it. Most URIs are very easy to treat once you've narrowed down exactly what the problem is.
Laila answered on 1/31/13. Helpful? / 0
Laila is right. Even if we were veterinary professionals here, we could not diagnose and suggest treatment for a cat we've never seen and can't do a "hands-on exam" of. If finances are an issue, then speak with the vet and ask them to set up a payment plan for you. I've never encountered a vet who will refuse to treat a sick kitty. Cats with respiratory infections can "crash" pretty fast, so it's best not to wait to call.

(OCALA, Fla.) Sept. 1, 2011 — Renowned actress, role model, fashion icon, outspoken, independent and feisty, Katharine Hepburn is listed by the American Film Institute as Hollywood's greatest screen legend. Her fans, admirers and the entire community will have the opportunity to enjoy a closer look at this remarkable actress when the exhibition "Katharine Hepburn: Dressed for Stage and Screen" opens on Saturday, Nov. 19, at the Appleton Museum of Art, College of Central Florida. Showcased will be one of the most complete collections of stage, film and television costumes, plus publicity fashion apparel, related to Hepburn's six-decade career. The Appleton will also offer a series of Date With Kate luncheon packages and Hepburn lectures during the run of the exhibition.

There will also be costumes from her many television movies such as her Emmy-nominated performance in "Mrs. Delafield Wants to Marry" and her Emmy-winning performance in "Love Among the Ruins." The exhibition comes from the Kent State University Museum that received the collection from Hepburn's estate in 2008 and displayed the costumes to the public for the first time last year.
The Appleton's Date With Kate luncheon packages will be offered from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Saturdays, Nov. 26, Dec. 10 and 17 and Jan. 7.

It is easy to see why actor Leonardo DiCaprio is drawn to Jay Gatsby. As he played previously in "Titanic" and "Romeo and Juliet," Leo's character in "The Great Gatsby" is a hopeless romantic, willing to die for a young inaccessible beauty.
In the F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel, Gatsby is the enigmatic millionaire, whom everyone talks about, but nobody knows. Such a mystery man is tough to flesh out in a multi-buck splashy 3-D film extravaganza. While co-writer/ director Baz Luhrmann's opulently entertaining movie sometimes misses the mark, Di- Caprio is dead-on in his depiction of the gangster with fatally deep and delusional feelings for the delicate, but deadly Daisy Buchanan (Carey Mulligan). He even pulls off the affected Gatsbyism, "old sport," without making the audience cringe, though his bullying rival, Tom Buchanan (Joel Edgarton), does.
Tom has reason to cringe. Upstart Gatsby has returned from the Army and World War I with much new money and a Long Island castle to steal away his wife, Daisy. She's fed up with Tom's philandering and is weak for real love. But, to Gatsby, Daisy's love is religion and he has staked everything on it, even his soul.
That is the heart of the Fitzgerald masterwork which, with his elegant writing and incisive social commentary, has sustained for nearly nine decades. Four films have attempted to tackle this seemingly simple, but curiously complex Americandream gone-bad. This one has Luhrmann's music-video razzle-dazzle, but also a few powerful verbal boxing matches, played strong and straight right out of the novel.
The difficulty with Fitzgerald is how to keep the wonderful words intact, without sinking the film's visual swing. The director's device is to have narrator and Fitzgerald stand-in Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire) writing it all down, as he recuperates from Gatsby-Buchanan ordeal in a sanitarium. In fact, often the author's sentences are seen floating across the screen. Respectful, but a bit dull and didactic.
The question is, would Fitzgerald himself have liked this movie? Considering that he died in 1940, drunk and depressed by public indifference, he'd be glad that "Gatsby" is once again seen as great.
