Date of Stay: May, 2010
The staff is friendly and helpful. The sites are adequate in size. It was in a really great setting. There was no highway noise even though the park is easily accessed from I-80. I would definitely stay here again.
Date of Stay: May, 2010
I just spent 2 weeks and enjoyed the friendly people and great setting. Provides easy access to the east gate of Yellowstone and Cody is near by. Great bar & grill in the park. I had a great Mother's Day buffet dinner at the restaurant. I plan to be back next year.
Date of Stay: April, 2010
The park is clean but the sites are tight. There are enough permanent residents for the local school bus to pull into the RV park/trailer park every morning to pick up school children. This park is in a Salt Lake City suburb, so there is no relaxing or hiking in the area: the mountains are 15 miles away (long shadows).

The Ruins HTML version
Part I, Chapter 18
But scarcely had the solemn voice of liberty and equality resounded through the earth,
when a movement of confusion, of astonishment, arose in different nations. On the one
hand, the people, warmed with desire, but wavering between hope and fear, between the
sentiment of right and the habit of obedience, began to be in motion. The kings, on the
other hand, suddenly awakened from the sleep of indolence and despotism, were alarmed
for the safety of their thrones; while, on all sides, those clans of civil and religious
tyrants, who deceive kings and oppress the people, were seized with rage and
consternation; and, concerting their perfidious plans, they said: Woe to us, if this fatal cry
of liberty comes to the ears of the multitude! Woe to us, if this pernicious spirit of justice
be propagated!
And, pointing to the floating banner, they continued:
Consider what a swarm of evils are included in these three words! If all men are equal,
where is our exclusive right to honors and to power? If all men are to be free, what
becomes of our slaves, our vassals, our property? If all are equal in the civil state, where
is our prerogative of birth, of inheritance? and what becomes of nobility? If they are all
equal in the sight of God, what need of mediators?--where is the priesthood? Let us
hasten, then, to destroy a germ so prolific, and so contagious. We must employ all our
cunning against this innovation. We must frighten the kings, that they may join us in the
cause. We must divide the people by national jealousies, and occupy them with
commotions, wars, and conquests. They must be alarmed at the power of this free nation.
Let us form a league against the common enemy, demolish that sacrilegious standard,
overturn that throne of rebellion, and stifle in its birth the flame of revolution.
And, indeed, the civil and religious tyrants of nations formed a general combination; and,
multiplying their followers by force and seduction, they marched in hostile array against
the free nation; and, surrounding the altar and the pyramid of natural law, they demanded
with loud cries:
What is this new and heretical doctrine? what this impious altar, this sacrilegious
worship? True believers and loyal subjects! can you suppose that truth has been first
discovered to-day, and that hitherto you have been walking in error? that those men, more
fortunate than you, have the sole privilege of wisdom? And you, rebel and misguided
nation, perceive you not that your new leaders are misleading you? that they destroy the
principles of your faith, and overturn the religion of your ancestors? Ah, tremble! lest the
wrath of heaven should kindle against you; and hasten by speedy repentance to retrieve
your error.
But, inaccessible to seduction as well as to fear, the free nation kept silence, and rising
universally in arms, assumed an imposing attitude.

UK beach clean update
An update has come through from Dean at the BTCV from our beach clean at Whitsand Bay, Cornwall, UK. The data from the rubbish we collected has now been analysed and sent off to the Marine Conservation Society; we managed to collect a sterling 1604 pieces of rubbish!
As Dean says "that's a lot of bits of plastic and other nasties that would have normally been left to wreck havoc on the marine ecosystem, so you should be proud of yourselves!".
It's great to get the feedback and really good to quantify the difference that was made during the project. I'd definitely recommend getting involved in beach cleans to anyone; just contact the organisations linked to above to make a difference to the coast lines and our natural environment!

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I want to know, three. Been out of pocket a good bit, but qb is my end of the day reading, so been keeping up. Welcome to the new folks, and good work to the not so new. Hope everyone had a good 4th of July, and thank you to the service men and women for letting my family have one. My older daughter's boyfriend chose yesterday to ask for her daddy's ok to propose, so we are waiting on a big day soon.
I've used water decals when the originals were gone or too damaged to restore...they work great! I put clear lacquer over them and it works perfectly!
Miriam, you're a genius! The plate works and I've been trying out the straight and zigzag stitches. This machine makes a beautiful satin stitch. I've named her Vixen.
Life is made up of bits and pieces. You won't know how it'll turn out till its done.
I picked up 6 more machines today. Whew. My favorite is a little green Riccar. It was grubby looking. All 6 machines are grubby looking. The Riccar had a sticker on it. The sticker was falling off so I tugged on it and most of it came off. Goo gone isn't getting rid of the rest of it. The machine cleaned up nice. I think it is my new favorite left hand machine.

Judy, for what ever reason Goodwill is selling a ton of derelict machines. The worst of the lot are ending up at my place. Some are diamonds in the rough some are just plain old rough. I am learning a lot. It is a cheap way for me to learn more repairs.

S&P Downgrades Sprint Nextel, Nike
From Standard & Poor's Equity Research
Sprint Nextel (S) : Cuts to 4 STARS (buy) from 5 STARS (strong buy)
Analyst: Kenneth Leon, CPA
Second quarter earnings per share (EPS) of 32 cents vs. 30 cents, before special items, is in line with our estimate. Net subscriber adds for postpaid plans of 210,000 was well below our 600,000 target. We think Sprint is revamping a strategy to improve its above-peer monthly customer churn and to have one service offering instead of separate ones for Sprint and Nextel customers. We see flat revenue and earnings before interest taxes depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) growth for the rest of 2006. We are lowering our 2006 EPS estimate to $1.15 from $1.35. With Sprint's new $6 billion stock repurchase plan and shares priced near peers on a price-to-earnings basis, we are lowering our target price to $21 from $26.
Nike (NKE) : Cuts to 3 STARS (hold) from 4 STARS (buy)
Analyst: Mark Basham
We believe today's profit warning from Foot Locker (FL) amid softening U.S. demand is likely to lead footwear and sporting goods retailers to tighten up on inventory and trim new orders from vendors like Nike. We are trimming our fiscal year 2007 (ending May) revenue growth forecast to 7.2% from 8%, and lowering our EPS estimate to $5.55 from $5.60. In fiscal year 2008, we look for further moderation in revenue growth to between 3% and 5%, with EPS of $5.90, down from our prior $6.05 estimate. We are lowering our target price by $15 to $90.
OfficeMax (OMX) : Ups to 3 STARS (hold) from 2 STARS (sell)
Analyst: Michael Souers
Excluding special items, OfficeMax posts second quarter EPS of 29 cents vs. a net loss of 14 cents, 23 cents higher than our forecast. While sales declined 2.4%, including a comp-store decline in the OfficeMax's Retail division of 1%, the company was able to focus on profitable sales and cost cutting to achieve strong improvement in operating margins. We are impressed by the pace of OfficeMax's turnaround given the rather tepid sales environment, and are increasing our 2006 and 2007 operating EPS estimates to $2.12 and $2.39 from $1.67 and $1.91, respectively. We are also raising our target price by $6 to $44.
Federal Realty Trust (FRT) : Cuts to 3 STARS (hold) from 4 STARS (buy)
Analyst: Robert McMillan
Second quarter per-share funds from operations of 83 cents vs. 77 cents matches our estimate. Results benefited from a 10% jump in rental income amid strong retail conditions. Occupancy levels continued to rise, increasing to 94.7% at the second quarter-end, vs. 91.5% last year. Rent on lease rollovers jumped 17%. We look for retail conditions to remain robust into 2006, and see healthy condo sales at the company's developments. We are keeping our 2006 and 2007 FFO (the profit allocated to each outstanding share of common stock) estimates at $3.38 and $3.63. But we are increasing our 12-month target price by $2 to $76.
Medtronic (MDT) : Cuts to 3 STARS (hold) from 4 STARS (buy)
Analyst: Robert Gold
We expect the stock to be under pressure, as Medtronic lowers its July quarter sales and EPS guidance. Medtronic now sees revenues up 8% to $2.9 billion, below our $3.0 billion forecast, with EPS of 53 cents to 55 cents, compared with our 59 cents forecast. We are surprised by the magnitude of the U.S. ICD weakness, where sales fell 13%, outweighing strong non-U.S. ICD sales. Despite a favorable Medicare ICD reimbursement outlook, we think the U.S. ICD market will stay weak for a few more quarters. Our fiscal year 2007 (April) EPS estimate falls by 10 cents to $2.35, and fiscal 2008's drops by 10 cents to $2.75. Our 12-month target price falls by $10 to $50.
Las Vegas Sands (LVS) : Ups to 3 STARS (hold) from 2 STARS (sell)
Analyst: Thomas Graves, CFA
Before special items, second quarter EPS of 34 cents vs. 27 cents is 2 cents above our estimate. We are raising our 2006 EPS projection to $1.46 from $1.44, and our 2007 estimate to $2.00 from $1.95. In both years, we expect most of Las Vegas Sands's operating profit to come from Macau. In 2007, we look for Las Vegas Sands to open a new casino/hotel in Macau, plus another in Las Vegas. Also, we are being becoming more optimistic about longer-term projects in Macau's Cotai area. We are raising our 12-month target price to $63 from $58. Our sum-of-the-parts approach includes the possible sale of retail space in Macau.


text: Forty years in the making, the 2014 Volkswagen Beetle GSR follows up on a classic limited-edition model. The car is a reintroduction of the 'racing' edition Beetle, though the original yellow/black colorway remains signature to the silhouette. Updated with 210 horsepower, a six-speed manual transmission system, and a longer, sleeker body, the Beetle GSR seems more sport than quaint. The interior is decorated with full-grain leather around the dashboard, seats and levers, lending the car a truly active feel. The Beetle GSR is limited to 3,500 models worldwide, and will be offered at Volkswagen dealers in the fall of this year.

"Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" is officially undead!
The big screen adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith's mashup novel (which incorporates zombies into Jane Austen's beloved 19th century classic) has been through a slew of ups and downs, but is now back in business with "Mirror Mirror" beauty Lily Collins set to star as Elizabeth Bennet, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
And, while the project had initially been courted by a host of directors, including David O. Russell (who penned the screenplay), Craig Gillespie and Mike White, it will be Burr Steers (best known for directing Zac Efron pics "Charlie St. Cloud" and "17 Again") who will helm the project, THR reports.
PHOTOS: The Lovely Lily Collins
Natalie Portman, who is one of the film's producers, was initially set to star in "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" when the movie was originally proposed in 2009. Anne Hathaway and Scarlett Johansson were also rumored to have been considered for the lead role.
The film will be sold at the Cannes Film Festival, according to the trade mag.

A star-studded sporting panel including Sir John Kirwan provided plenty of entertainment as part of a night that raised about $55,000 for Project Promise.
Sir John was joined by sporting greats Grant Fox, Andrew Jones and Northland's own Black Cap Tim Southee for a panel interview by Doug Golightly that had the crowd of about 400 laughing as part of the the Project Promise Charity Auction and sports dinner at Kensington Stadium on Friday night.
Project Promise, the brainchild of the Northland Community Foundation, aims to raise $3 million to build a new cancer treatment unit at Whangarei Hospital to make life easier for the many Northland cancer patients, although some will still have to travel to Auckland for some treatments, including radiotherapy.
While a final tally was yet to be calculated, organisers estimated about $33,000 was raised from the auction plus another $32,000 from ticket sales.
Chairman of the Project Promise events group Colin Twyman deemed the night a "fabulous, wonderful event" and thanked everyone who had helped make the evening, presented by Barfoot and Thompson, possible.<inline type="photogallery" id="15206" align="outside" embed="no" />
Twenty-seven items were up for auction, including some classy sporting memorabilia.
A framed shirt signed by cricketing legend Sachin Tendulkar, from the recent Black Caps series against India, had cricketing fans digging deep into their wallets with the shirt raising $3800.
A 2012 All Blacks jersey signed by the current World Cup champions fetched $2450, while a framed jersey signed by Dan Carter collected $2300.
The bids came quick for item 12 - a dinner for four people cooked in your own home by multi-award winning chef Brenton Low. The first bid was $700, but by the time the hammer came down the price tag had risen to $1800.
But it was a framed limited-edition Sir Edmund Hillary ice axe that was highly sought after, raising $3900.
Tim Southee told the crowd he had grown up wanting to be an All Black, but had to settle for second-best and ended up playing cricket.
Andrew Jones revealed Sir Richard Hadlee was a neat freak and even ironed his undies.
Sir John recalled his first experience rooming with Richard Lowe and how he had been bullied into making him a cup of tea every night before lights out.
And Grant Fox's mum never knew her young son had stolen a sheet and cut out the number 13 and sewn it on his black jesery.

As we round the corner of Typographical Era's first anniversary, we've decided to continue our Best Read in the year tradition, and what a year it has been! Between translations, short stories, novels, memoirs, and essays, readers of all genres will surely find Typographical Era's Best Read in 2013 list to be a great place to start for reading endeavors in 2014. At least we hope so. Here's to a great year in reading and to another great year for Typographical Era. Cheers!
20: The Widow Tree by Nicole Lundrigan
Harrowing, yet also life affirming, The Widow Tree reminds us that no one can ever truly be good or evil, that we're all the end result of a complicated, never ending series of choices — so many of which are sadly out of our control — and that maybe, just maybe, the people we think we despise the most might be the very ones we should be embracing instead. – Aaron
19: The Death of Bees by Lisa O'Donnell
The Death of Bees is a fast-paced coming of age drama, but it's also a very tender and often humorous story of friendship, trust, responsibility, and what it means to be a family. – Karli
18: The Fata Morgana Books by Jonathan Littell
Elegantly translated by Charlotte Mandell, what makes The Fata Morgana Books work is Littell's unrelenting insistence to go "there" even if as a reader you're never quite able to ascertain where there is exactly. Operating in a hypnotic, dreamlike world of infinite possibilities, Littell is free to explore not only the limitless nature of our sexual appetites, but also the very real, very raw thoughts and emotions that compel us to act upon them. The result of his efforts is a living, breathing, sublime collection of novellas that ignite the reader's imagination and entices their most base of desires to grab control. – Aaron
17: Let's Pretend This Never Happened by Jenny Lawson
Let's Pretend This Never Happened is wry, honest, and conversational. These aren't formal, literary essays by any means, but her sense of humor translates perfectly in this unconventional collection. Somehow, Jenny Lawson has simultaneously managed to have the most entertaining and traumatizing life in history. And thank goodness she wrote a book about it! -Karli
16: The Lowland by Jhumpa Lahiri
Subtly intoxicating, Lahiri's novel is overflowing with complex, conflicted characters that glisten with the slight, undefinable nuances of life. Subhash, Udayan, Guari, and their supporting cast are all fully realized, richly developed human beings. Defined by their desires, crippled by their pasts, and driven by their guilt, each attempts to make amends in their own way, yet by setting out to doing so, each unwittingly crushes a small piece of the other in the process. – Aaron
15: The Trajectory of Dreams by Nicole Wolverton
The Trajectory of Dreams is a subtle, but haunting (and often darkly humorous) psychological thriller that slowly, unnervingly forces you to reconsider your own relationships. And as cliche as it sounds, it will make you wonder if you can ever really trust or know anyone. After all, social behavioral patterns are learned, not inherent, and even the homicidal, mentally ill members of society can emulate these patterns flawlessly. – Karli
14: The Creator by Gudrun Eva Minervudottir
Like a much needed wake-up call, Mínervudóttir's The Creator arrives as an unforgettable gift reminding us to embrace the messy, finite nature our humanity. It serves as an unshakable and uplifting reminder that life can be, and should be, so much more than just the sum of our perfectly lifeless yet oh-so-sexy possessions. – Aaron
13: Tampa by Alissa Nutting
Tampa is likely to be the most controversial book of the decade for the literary community – not just for its graphic depictions of sexual acts and fantasies, but for its ability to make readers question the inherent nature of human sexuality and the legal system that frames it. – Karli
12: The Facades by Eric Lundgren
Inspired by the artistry of Italo Calvino, Paul Auster, Gert Jonke and David Lynch, Lundgren's wonderfully layered, descriptive prose invents a city that is a major character in and of itself, one whose exploration clearly takes precedence over delving into the complicated motivations and actions of those who live within its boundaries. This flipping of the expected script finds Trude forever driving the action forward, with her peculiar denizens relegated to the backseat, unable to wrest control from her formidable grasp. – Aaron
11: Revenge by Yoko Ogawa
Revenge is categorized as a collection of short stories, but they're all so intricately and expertly connected that it feels more like reading a novel. Characters appear, disappear, and reappear like phantoms, which, by the end of the book, will give you an unavoidable sensation of being haunted. And long after you finish the collection, you will likely notice these characters invading the sacred spaces of your subconscious. – Karli
10: The Kills by Richard House
Oh, there's a world inside the fucking world alright, and Richard House is more than adequately equipped to show it to you. In fact, the further I progressed in my reading of his Booker nominated epic The Kills, the more I became convinced that it's the best novel Don DeLillo never got around to writing. – Aaron
09: Me, Who Dove Into the Heart of the World by Sabina Berman
Sabina Berman has created such a funny, original, and complex character and voiced her in a way makes readers envy Karen for the elegance of her mind. It is not overcrowded with anxieties, fantasies, and fear, and despite her test scores, she does not lack intelligence or compassion. Karen Nieto is one of the most pure literary characters I've ever had the pleasure to encounter, and Me, Who Dove Into the Heart of the World should be celebrated for its brilliance and charm. – Karli
08: Tenth of December by George Saunders
Saunders builds characters like a mad scientist, gleefully sawing open skulls and exposing the raw stream of consciousness contained within for all to see. He gives the reader a backstage pass to the hottest show in town. Prepare to be amazed as the brain's complex self-justification system kicks into high gear! Watch as each character convinces themselves of their supreme rightness in every conceivable situation! Gasp at the shocking results! – Aaron
07: The Execution of Noa P. Singleton by Elizabeth L. Silver
…This is not just a novel about the death penalty and the mystery of a murder. Elizabeth L. Silver does not actively oppose or support capital punishment, but rather encourages readers to untangle the complicated web of emotions, trauma, grief, regret, and facts that can lead to such a sentencing. Whether we as jurors, readers, lawyers, perpetrators or victims realize it or not, action and consequence are not as simple as facts and events. A single, life-changing occurrence cannot be judged impartially or cleanly, because there is nothing clean or simple about motive. – Karli
06: The Illicit Happiness of Other People by Manu Joseph
Joseph's language is just as beautiful as his subjects, and in a world that has become increasingly obsessed with focusing on studying those we've labelled "damaged" or "dysfunctional," Illicit Happiness becomes a welcome reminder that the opposite side of the spectrum can be just as interesting, and perhaps surprisingly to some, far more appealing ground to explore. – Aaron
05: Unclean Jobs for Women and Girls by Alissa Nutting
It's hard to look away from Unclean Jobs for Women and Girls, but you should at least glance up every now and then to remind yourself that this literary fever dream has not completely devoured your mind, body, and spirit even though each page pulses and throbs with the promise, tease, capture, and release of the taboo, the unknown, and the wickedly delectable. – Karli
04: Tirza by Arnon Grunberg
Tirza offers up a difficult, disturbing journey, but it's also a fascinating exploration of both the power of family and the lengths that we're willing go to as parents for our special children that we love oh so dearly. – Aaron
03: Fin & Lady by Cathleen Schine
…Vibrant, dynamic portrait of perseverance, resilience, loyalty, and compromise in a unique and unforgettable family duo. One of the most entertaining and sparkling novels I've read all year, Fin and Lady is a superbly cast whirlwind of a story, and I was truly sad to turn the last page. – Karli
02: The Elixir of Immortality by Gabi Gleichmann
Gleichmann's ambitious efforts are rewarded by his insistence to tackle stereotypes and oppression head on rather than shy away from them. From the Spanish Inquisition to the Holocaust, he leaves no stone in history's dark past unturned as he reminds us that no matter how horrific the obstacle, life always manages to find a way to persevere. – Aaron
01: The Dinner by Herman Koch
The Dinner is a book that should be savored slowly so you can appreciate every last garnish of tension and mounting unease, but if you're like me, then you will devour this book in one sitting, feverishly turning pages and hoping that the check never comes. – Karli
What do you think of our list? What were some of the best books that YOU read in 2013? Let us know!

Beautiful Chickens: Portraits of Champion Breeds (edition 2011)
by Christie Aschwanden, Andrew Perris (Photographer)
Work details
Beautiful Chickens by Christie Aschwanden
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Beautiful Chickens. Really, the name says it all. This book is for those who love chickens (of the live type, not of the take-away food variety). It contains exquisitely styled chickens (yes, they did get washed and blow-dried) posing for the camera. It's not just your average garden variety chickens and the more popular breeds (such as the Rhode Island Red) but the more exotic and rare chickens. This includes chickens with top knots, chickens with feathers on their feet, speckled chickens, bantam chickens, big chickens, gorgeous feathers, proud roosters, cute hens…the list goes on.
Beside the full page picture of each chicken is details about its breed and habitat. While this is not the kind of exhaustive list that you'd use to buy some chickens, it is a good starting point as it discusses eggs and breeding. The majority of chickens featured are from the UK and USA, but there are some chickens I've spotted in Australia as well.
Does this book have any negatives? Not really if you're a chicken fan. The photographs by Andrew Perris are gorgeous. The information is concise and interesting. This book is for a niche market though; only chicken lovers (or their mothers) would buy it. It is definitely worth borrowing from the library too. I do believe that there are other Beautiful animals in the series, including pigs, cows, sheep and ducks. These would suit admirers of these animals down to the ground!
A fun book with some gorgeous birds!

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0312613776, Paperback)
An awe-inspiring collection featuring commissioned photographic portraits of the best in feathered beauties
Beautiful Chickens takes the humble farmyard fowl and places it in the frame of a top portrait photographer. Stylishly lit and shot against a studio background, the portraits showcase 40 of the world's most distinctive breeds, primped and preened for their moment of fame at assorted livestock shows. Featuring prize-winning cocks and hens, this is the ultimate in poultry portraiture. The book includes descriptions of each breed, covering their origins, physical attributes, and uses. There's also a history of hens and roosters through the ages, an introduction to the breed basics, and reportage photography from behind the scenes.
Beautiful Chickens is the perfect gift for anyone, whether their fancy is for all things fowl or simply for beautiful photography.

University of Georgia researchers have developed a new technology that promises to dramatically increase the yield of ethanol from readily available non-food crops, including the waste from corn and sugarcane harvests, weeds such as bermudagrass, switchgrass and napiergrass and even garden waste.
The new technology features a fast, mild, acid-free pretreatment process that increases the amount of simple sugars released from inexpensive biomass for conversion to ethanol by at least 10 times.
Currently, woody biomass requires soaking under high pressure and temperatures in expensive, environmentally aggressive alkalis or acids before it is subjected to enzymes that digest it, producing simple sugars. The harsh pretreatment solutions must then be removed and disposed of.
The University of Georgia technology eliminates the expense of harsh pretreatment chemicals and their disposal. The technology is available for licensing from the University of Georgia Research Foundation.

Fully immersing themselves in Tuesday's political festivities, the stars took to the polling booths and Twitter to sound off on the Presidential election.
Celebrating fatherhood and paternal bonds, dads around the world are being toasted on the Father's Day holiday (June 17) for all that they do as family patriarchs.
Spending a day outdoors, Reese Witherspoon watched her son Deacon play flag football with her daughter Ava and husband Jim Toth.
The adorable family was joined by the "Legally Blonde" star's ex-hubby Ryan Phillippe and everyone seemed to get along great as the blonde beauty showed off her growing baby bump while keeping a smile on her face.
Enjoying a little father/son pigskin bonding time, Ryan Phillippe acted as coach to son Deacon during his flag football game in Los Angeles on Thursday (April 19).
Both clad in athletic tops and shorts, 37-year-old papa could be seen showing his 8-year-old sports star a few sure-fire movies for the next play.
Treating himself to a delicious dinner, Ryan Phillippe was spotted at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles last night (February 23).
The "Anti Trust" actor looked a bit grumpy as he waited for the valet to bring his car, sporting casual attire and Nike sneakers.
Relationships come and go as people seek out that special someone to spend the rest of their days with, and Hollywood certainly sees its fair share of unsuccessful tries at love.
The year of 2011 witnessed a number of high-profile marriages, though there were just as many couples who decided that it just wasn't meant to be.
Looking to have a new lady in his life, Ryan Phillippe was seen leaving breakfast with a mystery woman in Hollywood this week (December 22).
Keeping it casual for the early morning date, the "Crash" actor and his gal pal both donned loose tops and jeans as they played coy to the nearby paparazzi.
Going back in time to the 1970s, Hollywood hotties were among the many showing up for the SiriusXM reopening of Studio 54 in New York City last night (October 18).

You will want to remember…
….. the first time you saw your new baby
….. that sweet, fresh newborn skin
….. all the little details of your baby's birth
My goal as your photographer is to bring out the best in you and your family to preserve these precious memories.
To "specialize" in everything isn't really special after all.
I focus my photography on what I am passionate about. I spend my time and energy perfecting the craft of documenting birth and newborns.
You want a photographer who photographs what they are passionate about. They will naturally have more joy & talent for those things!

In an effort to boost the use of its video-on-demand platform, and to better compete against rival BSkyB, Virgin Media will add more high-definition VOD content to its lineup this summer.
Virgin Media is also working on a new program guide that will make its "catch-up" TV offerings as easy to find as its linear programming, according to a story in the Guardian (story here).
Last month, SeaChange International's On Demand Group (ODG) inked a four-year contract to provide content management services for Virgin Media's TV On Demand service (story here).
SeaChange was also one of the vendors that took part in Virgin Media's first-ever dynamic advertising trial (story here).
According to the Guardian, Virgin Media started commercial data trails with a downstream speed of 200 Mbps in Ashford, Kent, in England last week.

South Africa May Fine Employers Who Abuse Youth Wage Tax Breaks
South Africa plans to fine employers who replace workers to take advantage of a tax break that's meant to encourage hiring, in a bid to address union opposition to the incentive.
A draft law proposes that employers who hire South Africans who are 18 years old to 29 years old and pay them less than 6,000 rand ($615) a month be allowed to deduct some of the wage against tax for the first two years of employment. A formula will be used to calculate the size of the deduction, which varies depending on the salary.
The Employment Tax Incentive Bill, introduced in Parliament today by Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan, provides for employers who unfairly substitute workers to benefit from the incentive to be fined 30,000 rand per infringement.
"Everything possible must be done to enable employment to increase," Gordhan told lawmakers. "Approximately 94 percent of young people do not have further or tertiary education, approximately 80 percent have never worked or been employed for longer than a year and these are alarming indicators. We are creating a dispensation where enterprises can share the cost of employing both older and younger workers."
President Jacob Zuma announced the government's plan to introduce measures to boost youth employment in February 2010. The tax breaks and a previous proposal to subsidize wages have been opposed by the Congress of South Africa Trade Unions, the nation's biggest labor union federation, because of concerns that they would lower wages and displace existing workers. Cosatu is in a political alliance with the ruling African National Congress.
The incentive will probably come into effect in January and will cost the government 1 billion rand to 2.3 billion rand over the next two years, the ruling African National Congress said in an e-mailed statement today.

text: Sports for many is an escape from real life. A recreation, a hobby, or a source of entertainment.But reality has hit home for the UMaine Women's Basketball team.As the spring semester started Monday at UMaine, one student was not getting ready to go to class. She was getting ready to go home.Michal Assaf is a freshman guard for the Black Bears. She came to Orono from Israel. "If you're 18 and you're done with high school, then you serve the military, and I'm done with high school and I'm 18. I turned 18 on Halloween so I get to serve the military."She knew it was coming. Both her parents and her two older siblings served in the Israeli military."My Dad was a fighter, he fought in 2, 3 wars," said Assaf. "He got injured in one of them and that's what makes me feel I must serve the military. I'm very proud of being an Israeli and I really, really want to serve in the military and I have a lot of pride in that."During high school kids are tested to find out what they would be best suited for in the Isreali military, and while Assaf doesn't know exactly what she'll be doing, she knows what she won't be doing. "I'm not gonna fight, I won't have a gun, I'm not going to shoot people but I'm just gonna fit in the whole system and try to help whenever I can."For the last 15 months, she and her family tried to get a deferment so she could finish out the season with the Black Bears, or possibly even delay her service until after her four years at Maine were complete. But that didn't happen. She has to report March 3rd. At least for the last five months, she accomplished one of her goals"She's created life long friendships, she's playing Division One basketball which has been a dream of hers, and then all of a sudden to have that taken away," said UMaine Assistant Coach Amy Vachon. "On the other hand she's going home, she's serving her country which she's very, very proud of, and we're proud of her as well.""I'm nervous," said Assaf, "because it's another big change and I've dealt with so many changes in the past year and nervous because it's something new and I don't know how it's like."She's leaving now so maybe at the end of her two year service she can return to the team and still have three and a half years of NCAA eligibility, but it's going to be hard to say goodbye to her teammates. "If I were them I don't know if this is the way I would react to this kind of situation, and I find this amazing how they've been so supportive and caring and loving and just, I'm going to miss them a lot."

Nice colour, good qualityApril 22, 2011
This is a true light sapphire colour that complements a sapphire bead. It is a very light colour. For the price, this is a good quality bead where you can pass the thread through many times. I have had no problem with TOHO beads breaking. The only different between TOho and Miyuki beads is that Toho are slightly larger than the Miyuki bead. I use the 11 when I am embezelling a rivoli and need a slightly larger bead than the Miyuki 11 to fill the gaps.

LONDON(Afp)World number one novak djokovic takes on argentina's juan martin del potro for a place in the wimbledon final on friday insisting he can get even better.But djokovic, having avoided the shock exits suffered by the likes of roger federer and rafael nadal at this Year's wimbledon, believes he cannot become complacent. "It's the mindset i always try To have, because that's something that keeps me going every single day on the practice courts, day in, day out, trying To give my best and trying To always inspire myself To play better tennis,"Said the Top seed. "I know i have a quite complete game, but i still feel there is room for improvement.

"He struggled with injuries in last few years, but every time he comes back he comes back very strong because he just has this talent and qualities as a player,"Said djokovicl potro's 2009 us open win was the only time in the last 33 grand slams that the champion wasn't called either federer, nadal, djokovic or murray.Like djokovic, del potro has reached the last-Four--His first semi-Final at wimbledon--Without dropping a set. "I will need To be 110 percent against novak.He's the number one.He's a former champion.It's going To be a more difficult match for me,"Del potro said.Second-Seeded andy murray, the runner-Up To federer in 2012, will be playing in his fifth consecutive wimbledon semi-Final, but he had To come from two sets To love down To beat fernando verdasco in the quarter-Finals.It will be his 13th major semi-Final, equalling the national record set by fred perry, the last british man To win the title in 1936.He takes on 24th seed jerzy janowicz, the first polish man To reach the semi-Finals of a major.

"He also has pretty good Touch.He likes To hit drop-Shots.He doesn't just whack every single shot as hard as he can,"The scot said. Janowicz,The 24th seed, is this Year's rags-To-Riches wimbledon story.When he once played the us open, new yorkers coughed up to buy him tennis shoes while, two years ago, when he was ranked at a lowly 221 in the world, he didn't have the cash to buy a ticket to the australian open.

(Woodruff, Wis.) – In an effort to continually improve the quality of care in the Northwoods, the Howard Young Foundation recently purchased two LUCAS™2 chest compression system devices for the emergency medical services (EMS) departments at Howard Young Medical Center and Ministry Eagle River Memorial Hospital.
The LUCAS™2 chest compression system is an automatic CPR device that enhances blood flow and helps provide a steady supply of oxygen to the heart and brain while a person is in cardiac arrest. This device removes the need for emergency medical technicians (EMTs), nurses or providers to perform manual chest compressions during CPR, which can be both difficult and tiring.
The LUCAS™2 device provides 100 percent correct compression and decompression times, replacing the need to rotate CPR rescuers every two minutes. By doing this, the device frees up rescuers so they can focus on other life-saving tasks and creates new rescue opportunities. The LUCAS™2 device is powered by a rechargeable battery that can last between 30-45 minutes. The device is housed in ambulances but can easily be transferred into a hospital for a cardiac arrest situation.
"This device allows us to treat patients using the latest life-saving technology," said Mark Dascalos, manager of patient care services. "We want to thank the Howard Young Foundation and its donors for the significant gifts that led to the purchase of this state-of-the-art technology. These devices are a great benefit for the EMS department as well as our cardiac arrest patients here in the Northwoods."
The Howard Young Foundation has a long and rich history of supporting emergency services at their hospitals. In 2013 the Foundation's year-end appeal was dedicated to the purchase of the two LUCAS™2 devices and with the help of their generous donors, the Foundation was able to cover the $24,000 cost. This important technology will be instrumental in helping the EMS department achieve its goals to improve the care and potentially the survival rate of patients who suffer cardiac arrest.
In March of 2014, the first LUCAS™2 device arrived and was placed into service. In early April, the second LUCAS™2 device arrived and was deployed as well. Both the Howard Young Medical Center and Ministry Eagle River Memorial Hospital ambulances have one in service.

Framing Nailer
We are going to be doing some additions to our home, extending bedroom, adding garage, reroofing shed. Is there a good quaility, easy on the pocket book, framing nailer that is recommended? I also read about the Paslode 900420 Impulse Cordless framing nailer. Any comments about it?
For a DIY I would recommend a Porter Cable good quality and resellable if you wish. You will need to buy an air compressor if you dont have one, but you will find about a million uses for an air compressor:)
Here was another discussion about the same topic:
Porter Cable 350 here - used it to build a 24x30 garage/workshop and various smaller projects - works great, moderatly priced.
A year or so ago i picked up a factory refurbished DeWalt D51844R, works great so far.
Ive used a cordless Paslode (cant remember the model) a couple times, it was real nice and not having to deal with a air line was great... but like mentioned above, you can always find a use for a compressor (atleast i have, air chisel, filling car tires, ratchet and air hose to blow stuff off so far, )... and if your doing alot or remolding you might also think about a finishing gun. An air compresser, hose and two refurbished guns will proble be around the same cost of a cordless framing gun. Best thing to do is look at all the projects you plan on doing and figure out something from there.
I'm a once upon a time carpenter but age has caught up to me so I don't do as much carpentry as I used to do. Several years ago, I bought a framing nailer from Harbor Freight for $69. It looks a lot like this one. I don't work too fast and the gun keeps up with me just fine. I have built a 10 x 12 storage building, replaced my fence after Hurricane Rita tore it down in 2005, framed up a wall this past weekend when I demoed a patio door and installed a window in the newly walled in area and put on the siding. Next job is to replace my fence that Hurricane Ike tore down last month! :mad:
It shoots 2" through 3 1/2 inchers. I have used Harbor Freight's nails and currently have some made by Bostich. I just have to make sure I buy 28 deg. clipped head nails.
The only thing I don't really like about it is it's heavy (at least to me), so that may be something you might want to consider is weight. Maybe go to the stores and feel 'em to see what feels comfortable in your hands.
At the rate I'm going, this nailer will outlast me. :)
Hope this helps.
I agree with MT for light to moderate use don't see how you can go wrong with thoses Harbor Freight nailers,I have the 28 degree framer,trim nailer and brad/staple gun all 3 work flawless,and all have had plenty of use..
Porter-Cable FR350R Framing Nailer
I would recommend a Porter-Cable FR350R. It is a reconditioned pneumatic framing nailer. A new nailer will run you around $359.00 and this reconditioned nailer runs about $196.00. Warrantied at any authorized service center in the U.S.
It comes in a carrying case and handles up to a 16 penny nail.
We sell a lot of these reconditioned nailers because it is half the price with the same warranty as a new nailer.
Reconditioned Tools are tools that have blemishes and never been used or have been returned to manufacturer. They are sold in like new condition. Include same warranty as a new one and a lot cheaper.
I was planning on buying a Harbor Freight framing gun. Then I found the Porter Cable FR350A for a very, very good deal. Looking forward to using this gun! Thanks for the tips.

Should I crate train one puppy at night, when my current dog sleeps with me in the bed?
I have Abby who is one year four months. Abby was a night mare to crate train, and after working on seperation issues she can be crated just fine and sometimes goes in just for a nap on her own. Abby does'nt get locked in the crate at night, and never has. problem is, we're getting another lab in three weeks. I've made sure the breeder is familiarizing the pups with a crate, but should he be crate trained at night? The bedroom is puppy proof and I wouldnt mind him not being crated. Only problem is abby isnt. i'm not sure what to do.....

Best Answer
I would definitely crate train the new puppy, and I think it's wonderful that your (responsible!) breeder is starting this with your pup before you even got him.
As you've found out with Abby, crate training at a later age can be difficult. You will also find that crate training is very helpful - it protects your belongings and your puppy when you are not around to supervise, such as when you're at work or when you're sleeping. It also makes potty training a whole lot easier.
There's nothing wrong requiring one dog to sleep in a crate while the other is allowed loose, especially when you're bringing a new dog into the home. Crate training helps your puppy learn how your pack works, and it also gives him a "safe place" to go, now and for years to come - when you travel, for example.
Just note that he will not be able to hold it the whole night when you bring him home at only 2 months. He cannot hold it more than 3 hours at a time.
Abby answered on Jan 7th.
Other Answers
Depends on how old the puppy will be, but if you want any hope of house training it, it will likely be necessary to crate train until you're confident the dog can be trusted outside of its crate unattended (such as when you are asleep)
Moxie answered on 1/7/08. Helpful? / 3
That's what we are doing. My older dog is 2 and she has free reign at night which means she sleeps on the bed or under it. We crate our 3 month old puppy at night, because he's not fully potty trained, he chews and for his own safety.
I think overall it helps them learn to that some things they just have to do, because you said so. I also didn't want to hurt my older dogs feelings by putting her in a crate along with him.

Showtime's Dexter and Homeland delivered more record-breaking ratings Sunday with their season finales. Dexter's seventh-season ender drew 2.75 million viewers at 9 PM, the highest-rated episode ever for a Showtime original series. That's up 23% from the original Season 6 finale for the serial killer series. Overall, Dexter had a Sunday audience of 3.43 million viewers on the night. Meanwhile, Homeland's 10 PM broadcast of its second-season finale drew 2.3 million viewers, down from last week's high of 2.36 million. Overall, the spy thriller series had its highest-rated night ever with a total of 2.7 million viewers. The first airing of the Season 1 finale had an audience of 1.7 million viewers last season.
'Homeland' And 'Dexter' Finales Hit Series Highs
4 Comments
What an era we live in, we're supposed to get excited about "Homeland" and a pathetic 2.3 million viewers.
Honestly, more people watch "Pawn Stars," and the like.
All the best to "Dexter" though, which always had kind an anti-mainstream feel, making it challenging to grab audiences. It does so well, considering the circumstances.
The History channel is included in a basic cable package, Showtime isn't. So yes, 2.3 million viewers on a premium station is something to be excited about.
No, it isn't…
More people watch "Spartacus" and it never won a single award. "Homeland" has won a ton of awards and the ratings are pathetic.
Seriously, the so called "best show on TV" can't even keep up with the "Game of Thrones" of the world in the ratings. Show is WAY over-hyped…
Homeland requires a more sophisticated audience. Homeland doesn't attract the average American. Pawn Stars requires not thought or effort to watch.
The 2nd season finale of Homeland will have people talking for months. The more you talk about Sunday's finale with others, the better it becomes.
Similar to the 1998 Seinfeld series finale – it didn't play well when you watched it but the more you think about it you begin to realize it's genius.

When New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer sued former New York Stock Exchange Chairman Richard A. Grasso in late May, it seemed like just one more attempt to clean up self-dealing in Corporate America. But in fact, the NYSE is a nonprofit organization, and Spitzer is using an obscure state law that governs nonprofits -- not the 2002 Sarbanes-Oxley law passed to deal with public companies.
The NYSE is likely to have plenty of company among more traditional nonprofits such as universities and advocacy groups. After cracking down on Corporate America, lawmakers and enforcement officials are training their sights on the country's 1.8 million nonprofits (table). AGs from California to Massachusetts are pursuing nonprofits and their board members with allegations that sound every bit as unsavory as the charges leveled against Enron Corp. The Internal Revenue Service plans to examine executive compensation among nonprofits. And at least 13 states are mulling new laws that apply Sarbanes-Oxley-type regulations to them, while pols in Washington are contemplating legislation, too.
It's unlikely that a nonprofit scandal would reach the scale of the big corporate ones simply because there's usually less money at stake. But many of the problems are similar to those in corporate boardrooms, such as CEOs who pay themselves too much and directors -- often the CEOs themselves -- who cut sweetheart deals with the nonprofit they serve. Because nonprofits have no investors, they have operated with little scrutiny, leading many to adopt cozy board relations that offer potential for abuse, says Michael W. Peregrine, a law partner at McDermott, Will & Emery who works with nonprofits. Says Senate Finance Committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa), who has been leading the charge in Congress: Nonprofit abuses "stem from a mind-set that doesn't put donors and the needy first, just as corporations didn't put employees and shareholders first."
Now such practices may start to change. The most sweeping reforms are likely to come from Washington. Grassley has probed questionable dealings at the Nature Conservancy, which buys land for nature preserves. A Washington Post investigation last year turned up a raft of insider real estate deals between the Conservancy and its board members. The Conservancy then solicited an external review of its policies. This year, Congress held hearings and the IRS launched an audit in January, which is still ongoing. Now the Conservancy has set up an audit committee with independent directors and banned land sales to related parties. The episode prompted "us to take seriously the notion of governance in a nonprofit organization -- I'd been a little superficial in my thinking," concedes Conservancy President Steven J. McCormick.
The experience has led Grassley to call for a cleanup of all nonprofits. He plans to introduce Sarbanes-Oxley-like legislation for the sector by yearend and has scheduled hearings for June 22. The bill would lay down rules for governance, transparency, and financial integrity and would broaden the reach of the IRS, which has oversight over nonprofits.
The IRS has already identified as many as 200 nonprofits that pay an exec or board member more than $1 million a year. The agency says it will investigate them over the summer and may follow up with audits. Meanwhile, Harvard University's management of its $19 billion endowment drew criticism when Harvard shelled out a total of $107.5 million to its top five money managers last year.
State AGs are on a campaign, too. Last fall, Boston University offered its presidency to former NASA chief Daniel S. Goldin, but BU's board of trustees dismissed him the day before he was to take over in November after objections from former President John Silber, who had handpicked most of the trustees over his 32 years at BU's helm. Silber's flip-flop embarrassed BU and stuck it with a $1.8 million severance package to which Goldin had been entitled. The Massachusetts AG's office decided not to investigate after BU moved on its own to clean up its board, but the AG is now focusing more on nonprofits, says Chief Public Protection Officer Alice Moore.
In Minnesota, AG Michael A. Hatch ordered an audit last year of Minneapolis-based HealthPartners Inc., a nonprofit healthcare company. It revealed inflated compensation packages, contracts between insiders, and excessive travel and entertainment costs. HealthPartners says it implemented all audit recommendations.
Meanwhile, independent groups are trying to head off lawmakers via self-regulation. The Maryland Association of Nonprofit Organizations is offering credentials to nonprofits that meet its financial-disclosure and governance standards. Five other state umbrella groups are launching similar efforts; 27 more are considering proposals. If their efforts gain credibility, that could help to satisfy lawmakers, says Grassley. But many regulators aren't waiting to see if it works.
