Papaya fruit has a lot of health benefits and is rich in Vitamin A, B, C. It is also a good source of potassium and calcium. I have a papaya tree in my backyard and it yields a lot of fruits. So I decided to prepare some jam and store it. The jam came out very well and it was so easy to make. I have not added any pectin or even canned the jam. It is a simple procedure and it stays for upto a month or even more.
- Papaya pulp – 2 cups
- Sugar – 1/2 cup
- Cardamom – 2 (optional)
- Nutmeg powder – a pinch
Method of Preparation:
- Wash the papaya fruit, peel the skin and remove the seeds.
- Cut them into small pieces and grind it to a fine paste.
- Heat a sauce pan with ground papaya and sugar. Bring it to a boil over medium heat.
- Lower the heat, cover it with a lid and allow it boil until it becomes thick like a jam. Stir frequently.
- Turn off the stove and add ground cardamom and nutmeg powder. Mix well and let it cool.
- Store it in an air tight container in the refrigerator for a longer shelf life.
Preparation time: 45 minutes
Yield: 200 grams

Chapter 10. Phutra Again
I hastened to the cliff edge above Ja and helped him to a secure footing. He would not
listen to any thanks for his attempt to save me, which had come so near miscarrying.
"I had given you up for lost when you tumbled into the Mahar temple," he said, "for not
even I could save you from their clutches, and you may imagine my surprise when on
seeing a canoe dragged up upon the beach of the mainland I discovered your own
footprints in the sand beside it.
"I immediately set out in search of you, knowing as I did that you must be entirely
unarmed and defenseless against the many dangers which lurk upon the mainland both in
the form of savage beasts and reptiles, and men as well. I had no difficulty in tracking
you to this point. It is well that I arrived when I did."
"But why did you do it?" I asked, puzzled at this show of friendship on the part of a man
of another world and a different race and color.
"You saved my life," he replied; "from that moment it became my duty to protect and
befriend you. I would have been no true Mezop had I evaded my plain duty; but it was a
pleasure in this instance for I like you. I wish that you would come and live with me. You
shall become a member of my tribe. Among us there is the best of hunting and fishing,
and you shall have, to choose a mate from, the most beautiful girls of Pellucidar. Will
you come?"
I told him about Perry then, and Dian the Beautiful, and how my duty was to them first.
Afterward I should return and visit him--if I could ever find his island.
"Oh, that is easy, my friend," he said. "You need merely to come to the foot of the highest
peak of the Mountains of the Clouds. There you will find a river which flows into the
Lural Az. Directly opposite the mouth of the river you will see three large islands far out,
so far that they are barely discernible, the one to the extreme left as you face them from
the mouth of the river is Anoroc, where I rule the tribe of Anoroc."
"But how am I to find the Mountains of the Clouds?" I asked. "Men say that they are
visible from half Pellucidar," he replied.
"How large is Pellucidar?" I asked, wondering what sort of theory these primitive men
had concerning the form and substance of their world.
"The Mahars say it is round, like the inside of a tola shell," he answered, "but that is
ridiculous, since, were it true, we should fall back were we to travel far in any direction,
and all the waters of Pellucidar would run to one spot and drown us. No, Pellucidar is
quite flat and extends no man knows how far in all directions. At the edges, so my
ancestors have reported and handed down to me, is a great wall that prevents the earth

No game in China anytime soon, says NFL's Young
By Peter Rutherford
HONG KONG (Reuters) - The NFL is enjoying rapid growth in China but it will not stage a game there until the fan base reaches a tipping point to avoid damaging its "brand equity", the head of the league's Chinese operation told Reuters.
Rated by Forbes as the world's richest professional sports league, with over $9 billion in annual revenues, the NFL overshadows rivals such as the NBA and Major League Baseball on home soil, but it is playing catch-up in China.
NFL China Managing Director Richard Young conceded the league had dropped the ball by getting there late, but he is comfortable with the growth in popularity of American football across China's major cities.
"We're not going down the same old route the way some people still do, they look at 1.38 billion people and say, 'If we could just get 5 percent'," Young told Reuters by telephone on Thursday. "When people follow that strategy it's all gone.
"A lot of people try to make very homogenous maxims about China all the time, but we don't believe there's a cultural reason as to why American football is more popular in the United States than it is overseas.
"It's just that we haven't been very active, have not been proactive, in developing it overseas and particularly in China.
"What would we do differently? Start earlier, that's the number one thing."
While Major League Baseball, the NBA, as well as European soccer teams, have staged games in China, Young said there were no plans for the NFL to follow suit anytime soon. Continued...

Gemini Purchase! Now what?
As some of you may recall, my buddy was looking at a Gemini and I went to see it with him. He's now reached agreement on price with the seller and has a contract. He needs a surveyor, and assuming the sale goes through after survey and sea trial, he needs a recommendation of a good yard that's fair, honest and reasonably priced, particularly considering that he's going to be dealing with all this stuff long distance.
So with that, can anyone make recommendations of a surveyor and yard in Deltaville? Keep in mind that it's a Gemini, so a surveyor and yard experienced with cats could be useful (the yard work he wants is not really cat specific, so it's less of an issue there).
Also, is there a size limit on the dink they can get in terms of the amount of room between the hulls for use with the davits?
Thanks all.
Just curious, but which one did you take off the market? We were in the process of making plans to go look at "Too Much Fun" when we got word they had accepted an offer...
Oh, yes, I saw an ad for that one. Okay, well, that takes two of them off the board. There are still a few on the market, but the newer 105Mcs we like ( newer than 2001 that is) tend to either be equipped with stuff we don't want, or located someplace difficult for us. But the right boat will come along sooner or later. We are convinced the only two boats on the market that will meet our needs are the Geminis and the TomCat 9.7s. Everything else draws too much water.
I believe he will forgo carrying a dinghy in the davits, in the future as he's determined that the Geminis are too lightly built to carry one for Ocean sailing. PM me for details
dan, I am starting to get suspicious. ;)
Why don't you invite your, ahem, "friend" to join, and ask questions himself?
At least that is what they told me at stdinfo.com :)
"Hello, I'm Dan and I'm a Gemini owner..."

The yard was Gratitude and there were no surprises, but all they did was haul and clean. They do have a lift wide enough for the Gemini.
Re. the dink, don't know. A PDQ is wider. However, I think they carry it above the hulls, no?
He really should be asking on the Gemini Yahoo group - he'll find it someday anyway.

Michigan Head Coach Lloyd Carr
Opening statement ... "I think this was a typical first game; we will find some very good things and some things that we will need to improve on. I am very pleased with the way we ran the ball. We were blocking the right people and our backs ran the ball very hard. Central Michigan is a very difficult team to defend, because they get the play off so quickly. In the first quarter, we got a deflection on a very heads up play by Steve Breaston, but we had some dropped balls that could have led to a few more touchdowns."
On the defense ... "I think more than anything we did a good job against the big play. Part of it is our linebackers have to fill the hole running downhill. I have to see the film to see if our linebackers were having a difficult time on their track to the ball or if Central did a good job holding the line of scrimmage."
On Steve Breaston ... "Of all our young guys who saw action for the first time, I think Steve Breaston impressed me the most. For a guy going back to catch a punt for the first time and to have the confidence for him to perform the way he did really impresses me. The entire return team did a great job in setting us up with good starting field position."
On the difficulties with the red zone offense ... "I would be much more concerned if they were stopping us, but we were dropping passes that were catchable passes. That just shows me that we need to throw the ball to different players. We have the depth at the receiver position that we can do that."
On the loss of former college football coach Jim Wacker ... "Jim Wacker was one of the great people I have met in coaching. He was a guy who grew up here; he went to Luther West High School. He was an outstanding coach down in Southwest Texas and then in Minnesota. He passed away this week of cancer, and I just wanted to express to his family how special a man he was and what a great representative of college football he was. We will all sorely miss him."
Senior Quarterback John Navarre
On the running game ... "We stuck with what worked. Those guys worked hard. We have the talent and the workhorses to be a great running team. Chris Perry and the offensive line showed that today."
On Chris Perry ... "He did what we expect of him. We have seen this from him all during the off-season and all of last year. He will only continue to get better and continue to do what we expect him to do."
On the difficulties in the red zone ... "The thing is that it is the first game. We had a few poor passes and some penalties that pulled us away form the goal line, but we should have been able to convert those opportunities. As a team we want to eliminate mistakes. We want to work out our missed assignments, but as a first game I think we came away pretty well. We are going to continue to practice and get better, because we want to have zero mistakes."
Senior Running Back Chris Perry
On getting the running game going ... "I think we had a great time running the ball because our offensive line and receivers kept the holes open for us all day long. I had no other option but to run the ball through the holes they made."
On John Navarre ... "He did what we needed him to do. He is our leader on offense and he did what we needed him to do to win here today."
On breaking the opening-day rushing record ... "It is nice to have, but it's not that big of a deal. We have 12 more games to go including the bowl game. I just want to maintain my performance so we can produce like this every week."
On the offense ... "There were a few times that we were in the red zone and didn't convert. That cannot happen against the better teams on our schedule. That is something we need to do to be a great team."
Central Michigan Head Coach Mike DeBord
On the game and the turnovers ..."I thought we came out and attacked. I thought we ran the ball well. We knew that turnovers would be big in this game. Jeff Perry was trying to throw the ball away and he didn't get it out of bounds and that was a bad play there. Kenan Lawhorne was running the ball extremely hard and turned the ball over there. So we took away some scoring opportunities and you can't do that against a team like Michigan. I was pleased with our offense and I thought that we blocked well and ran the ball well and protected pretty well, and Jeff Perry's going to be a pretty good quarterback."
On Michigan's running game ... "Michigan's always going to run the football. I thought the offensive line did a good job of blocking; they're big, they're athletic, and then those backs -- we had guys in position at times and they'd just flat-out make us miss. They just have great speed and that's tough to defend. I thought Michigan, their backs are extremely good."
On coaching from the opponent's side ... "I said coming into this game I was going to be really focused on what I had to do with our team and I was. I didn't really think that way at all. I was pleased with my contribution and what I could do at least focus-wise."
On how his team performed ... "I really think we have a good football team, I really do. I mean, you're down 17-0, you come out and it's 17-7 on the first drive. We just got in a situation where we got out and their speed really hurt us in the backfield and receivers. When that happens, that hurts. I think we've got a good football team, I really do."
Senior/Junior Quarterback Jeff Perry
On the way the offense performed ... "I was very happy with the way our offense performed. We executed well, though there were a few turnovers that we wish would not have happened. But that is going to happen in the first game of the season. I was pleased with the way we ran the ball."
On how difficult it was to deal with making key turnovers ... "Any time you turn over the ball it is hard. I was happy with the way our offense bounced back every time we had a turnover. When we lost focus for a second, we were able to regroup when we got back on the field."
On his first interception ... "I was trying to throw it away. I wanted to get it out of bounds. There were a little bit of nerves there because I was still trying to get settled. The tight end was covered and I knew I had pressure coming from the back side so I tried to get it out there."
On playing Michigan in the Big House "It was a great opportunity. Obviously, Michigan is going to be a great team this year. It was nice for us to have a shot at them."
Senior Tailback Terrence Jackson
On if he was surprised with the success of the running game ... "Not necessarily. We practice hard every day so we can be successful in the games. It lets me know that I'm running at 100 percent and that our line and the rushers are working as one unit."
On the Central Michigan running game ... "We were successful because our wide receivers were able to block on the perimeter. The line opened up holes and stuck with their blocks and Jeff (Perry) made some good reads."
On playing Michigan in the Big House ... "It is a good opportunity for our program, our players, especially the young kids. It was just a great opportunity all around."
Senior/Junior Safety James King
On the Michigan running game ... "They have a good running game. Michigan has excellent backs and a good offensive line."
On playing Michigan in the Big House ... "Playing a team like Michigan puts our team in perspective, knowing that we were in the game until things kind of got out of hand in the third quarter. It shows us that we can stay with one of the best teams in the country."

"the vehicle was not checked by the bank just went on the dealers word "
Are you under the impression that the bank is responsible for making sure that you do not foolishly purchase a broken down vehicle? No bank is responsible for checking out a vehicle before loaning money on it. This may come as a surprise to you, but that is YOUR responsibility.
In the future, you should avoid buying any used car without first getting it checked out by a competent mechanic. That is the only way to avoid being caught in the predicament you're now in. Almost all cars are sold with a paper that claims the car is being sold "as is" with no implied warranties. That means once you sign the purchase contract, you are responsible for anything that goes wrong with the car. Not the dealer or the bank. If you don't protect yourself in the transaction, no one else will.
As for the bank, that's simple. If you get a car loan from any financial instituion and you don't pay according to the contract, they will do exactly what Crescent is doing. Everybody that can't make their payment has a good reason. If a lender were to "take that into consideration" for every loan that went unpaid, they'd be out of business pretty quickly.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

I guess each gun is different in one way or another.
I received a new second generation P3AT HC as a gift about a month ago. I have been shooting both Remington 88 grain JHP's and Fiocchi 90 grain FMJHP's without any problems at all.
All I did was give it a good cleaning and head for the range. +1 magazine extenders and a right side belt clip make it a pretty handy little BUG !

The biggest difference is the weight, most noticeable if you ever try to carry in your pocket, or on your ankle.
The weight will also be noticeable when you shoot +P ammo. Heavier guns are easier to shoot than light guns. Both guns will be much easier to shoot with rubber grips that cover the metal backstrap. (Metal against thumb bone hurts.) That's another trade-off. Easier to shoot = harder to conceal. Life is full of compromises.
The 442 barrel and cylinder are stainless, just like the 642. It's the frame that's aluminum alloy. Unless you live on a houseboat on the ocean, corrosion is not likely to be an issue. Wipe it off with a Kleenex every once in a while.

Early terrorist attack remembered thirty years later
KINGSPORT, Tenn. - Wednesday marks 30 years since what some consider to be one of the first terrorist attacks on America.
241 United States servicemen lost their lives when a suicide bomber drove a hijacked water delivery truck into a marine headquarters in Beirut, Lebanon.
Bloody Sunday is how October 23, 1983 is remembered by many veterans. Three decades after the terrorist attack on a marine headquarters building in Beirut, those who were there won't call it an anniversary.
"It's not an anniversary, it's nothing to celebrate. It's a time to remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice," says retired Marine Colonel Miles Burdine, who was serving in Beirut on that day.
At North Carolina's Camp Lejeune Wednesday they laid a wreath at the memorial for those killed.
But in Kingsport, this day is far more personal for retired Marine Colonel Miles Burdine. He was guarding the U.S. and British embassy in Beirut when the suicide bomber struck.
He would have been in the building if the original embassy had not been hit by an attack a few months earlier. Many of his friends were inside; many did not survive. "Every year at this time I take time to reflect," Burdine said while fighting back emotion. "I don't like to talk about it, but we should not forget those 241."
Burdine has several pictures from his time in Beirut all tucked away in an album he doesn't open often except on October 23. The pictures bring back memories of those killed and the families they left behind. "To think I lived, but their son, brother, husband did not is difficult to think about," said Burdine
He believes now is especially the time to talk about the attack and remind our nation what happened 30 years ago and how our enemies launched a new way to attack the United States. "Another reason that America needs to remember is that on that bloody day terrorists performed an attack using a suicide bombing that is now their method," explained Burdine.
American intelligence traced responsibility to Iran and a leader who later shared strategies with Osama Bin Laden.
Burdine is still angry with how America responded. "Our politicians at the time pulled the Marine Corps out of Beirut. I think that was a mistake, they should have stayed there and finished the fight. We should have found those responsible and killed them," says Burdine.
But it's the 241 America lives lost that day that this day is about. "These were good men. They were good men, and we lost 241 of them," says Burdine

text: I have been wondering just how dangerous it is to cycle live rounds through my military rifles in regards to firing pin indents left on primers. I know it is normal, due to the weight of firing pins/lack of spring on said firing pins, for the rifle to leave marks on primers of unfired cycled rounds. Is this something that I should even worry about or am I being a hypocondriac? (sp?) I cycle at least a few of the rounds that I make through any given firearm to make sure that they cycle correctly and do not bind at all- is there a better way?? e.g. go-nogo guage==are there springs I could install on these firing pins to make them safer as far as muzzle-drops or cycling? Again- I may be just too worried, but someone with buttloads of carry experience may be able to make me feel a little better-- thanks for your time guys-

Well today the colour was Blue! We started out early crosswing the harbour on the Staten Island Ferry by the blue-green statue of liberty. It was an nice blue sky day and althought the sun was in lady liberties eye's she did not squint hahaha. Then we were off to the World Trade Centre Memorial and tour. We met a former worker from the 86th floor and a Fireman who was there when the buildings went down and for the next 8 months doing recovery. We knew it would be emotional but were a bit surprised how much it effected us. We were both choked up and it was an experience never to be forgotten. Blue was the mood. We then went shopping and got some great clothes and both got a pair of headphones (no not blue). The eveing was at Blue Man Group! FANTASTIC ! A really unique show.
We had a great lunch of hummus and falafel wraps and supper was cheese fondue
Still HOT at 31 C

A world of art and entertainment right on campus
There's plenty of high-quality entertainment year-round at WSU. For example...
For art, start with the WSU Museum of Art. The museum houses a variety of famous painting, sculpture, and photography exhibits by regional, national, and international artists like Jim Dine. One of the leading figures in contemporary art, Dine recently had a prominent sculpture exhibit at WSU. You can branch out into galleries and festivals in the nearby communities of Moscow, ID, and Palouse.
Beasley Coliseum regularly hosts nationally known performers. Recent events include performances by Taylor Swift, Elton John, ZZ Top, Howie Mandel, Jeff Dunham, Jay Leno, and others.
For a fun-filled weekend on campus, check out Up All Night, with free food, music, games, and late night activities like ultimate Frisbee. The annual Springfest brings local, regional, and national music acts together at WSU as part of a 2-day variety event. Or how about Latin dance lessons in the CUB (Compton Union Building), or working out at the amazingly well equipped Student Recreation Center?
And of course there's Cougar athletics.

Summer heat boosts aquatic businesses
KALISPELL, Mont. - After a cold and wet June, the summer season is starting to heat up. Temperatures hovered around 90 on Wednesday and Flathead aquatic businesses took advantage of the warm weather.
The Big Sky Waterslide Park in Columbia Falls and the Woodland Park Water Park in Kalispell had slow starts to the season. This week's weather has been a welcome sign.
"We're a little bit behind as usual, but we had a really good year last year so it's hard to base it against that. But it was definitely a colder, rainier June than usual," said Mike Dyon, the Assistant Manager of Big Sky Waterslides.
At Woodland Park in Kalispell, the waterpark was filled to capacity. 516 people filled the park, prompting employees to stop letting people in.
"Today has been our busiest day of the year; we've actually hit maximum capacity, so we have people waiting in line," said Aquatic Coordinator Cynthia Thorsen.
The slow start to the season also means a shorter season altogether for these businesses. Warm weather is a crucial time for business.
"We go until Labor Day, which is September 1 this year, so it's one of our shorter seasons we've ever had, so we really need the good weather," said Dyon.
Both of these waterparks hope that the warm weather sticks around so they can make up for lost time and still turn a profit.

Forty years ago come July 21 (New Zealand time), Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin stepped carefully down a nine-rung ladder on to the surface of the moon. They landed in an area named the Sea of Tranquillity, ensuring their lives thereafter would be anything but tranquil.
What is it about humans and being first, about our fascination with winners? The need to beat the Russians drove America to the moon, hero worship chased Neil Armstrong into seclusion - the first man on the moon once sued his barber for selling locks of his hair.
Armstrong's aversion to the limelight doesn't surprise fellow moonwalker, Alan Bean.
"To live up to the role of the first to step on the moon, boy, that's a tough role," he told the makers of the documentary In the Shadow of the Moon
The Soviets put the first satellite in space, the first animal, first man, first spacewalker, first woman and were first to orbit the moon.
At stake was the title of most-advanced nation. That was a badge President John F. Kennedy thought worth having and set America cracking.
The Apollo programme cost US$23 billion, employed 300,000 people and scooped for the United States the first moon landing, first man on moon and - less famously - first pee on the moon. The last honour went to Buzz Aldrin - the second man, and consequently the world's second-most famous astronaut, to step on to what he described as that "magnificent desolation".
Aldrin explains in the documentary that attending to the call of nature was the reason he lingered upon alighting from the lunar module, Eagle. Better to have that out of the way, he reasoned, before embarking on the task of taking thousands of photographs of the moon's rock-strewn surface.
Aldrin is the owner of another first the first aged former moonwalker to punch a moon-landing sceptic in the face. Bart Sibrel, a documentary maker and proponent of the the theory that the moon landing was an elaborate hoax, was the recipient of the fist of a 72-year-old Aldrin. Sibrel, the BBC reported in 2002, had called the astronaut, "a coward, a liar and a thief".
Six missions landed astronauts on the moon. Why fake it six times over? But moon landing conspiracy theorists are on the rise as time marches on from that celestial feat - all six landings occurred in the space of three years and yet man hasn't set foot there since Apollo 17 in 1972.
A survey on behalf of E&T magazine, published by the Institution of Engineering and Technology, found that more than a quarter of people surveyed did not believe the astronauts actually landed on the moon. This level of scepticism is far higher than a decade ago, when a Gallup poll found just 6 per cent of Americans did not think the landings were genuine.
If you were at all susceptible to defining your life by that extraordinary episode, you would be annoyed by the naysayers and you might be at risk of unravelling. Aldrin ticks both boxes.
The conspiracy clique still rile. "I'm tired of hearing that nonsense," Aldrin told an interviewer last year. "The evidence of the mission's success is categorical. Besides, the Russian competitors would be the first to cry foul if we, their adversaries, took part in fraud. But that's fine. Many people also exercise their legitimate right to brag about having seen UFOs and other weird things. It's not worth arguing with people like that."
UFOs? Apollo 14 astronaut and moonwalker Edgar Mitchell doesn't claim to have seen UFOs but he has become an advocate for some who say they have. His story got traction when he repeated it a year ago on Larry King Live. In essence, it goes like this: he grew up near Roswell, New Mexico. Many years later, while visiting the district, he was approached by people who told him that they were witnesses to the 1947 "Roswell incident", the crash of an alien spacecraft.
They were "some of the old-timers ... people who were there at the time and intimately involved, but were sworn to secrecy and threatened if they didn't [keep the secret]. They wanted to tell their story before they passed on and they wanted to tell a local boy and they figured somebody who had gone to the Moon could be trusted, " he told North and South from his home in Florida this year.
Among them were "folk from the sheriff's department and the undertaker's office". Undertakers? "Well, they had to get caskets and things for the deceased aliens. There were three aliens that were dead and one that was alive at that point."
Mitchell, 79, believes them, believes that key decision-makers decided it best covered up, notes that it was during the Cold War, suggests they didn't want the Russians to know, and says he believes the enormity of it and the fear of being labelled a crank kept the few who knew silent.
Those to have gone into space gain a perspective unique to the rest of us gazing up through our blue atmosphere. A few have got to stare back from space at Earth afloat in inky blackness, "that fragile jewel ... hung up in space", as Armstrong and Aldrin's Apollo 11 colleague Michael Collins described it.
A few of the 12 moonwalkers subsequently found religion while Eugene Cernan (Apollo 11), the last man on the moon, spoke of something that is beyond us and our prescriptive religions.
"Coming home, we had jobs to do, but whenever we got to look out the window ... It's an overwhelming experience," Mitchell, recently told an interviewer. "It was accompanied by this bliss, or ecstasy - a wow experience ... I realised that the molecules of my body and the molecules of the spacecraft, and of my partners had been manufactured as prototypes in some ancient generation of stars, because matter is created in star systems."
Rather than intellectual, Mitchell describes his epiphany as a visceral experience. Two years after he came back to Earth, he set up the Institute of Noetic Sciences, dedicated to research in areas such as parapsychology.
After Aldrin, who took communion on the Moon, returned to Earth, he fell into alcoholism, depression and suffered a nervous breakdown which led to time spent in psychiatric care.
He's 79 now, 30 years off the booze and long back in business. He's an advocate of space tourism and is working on a lottery to give the ordinary punter a shot at an out-of-this-world experience. As a speaker he commands a minimum US$30,000 fee and he has recently recorded a rap song with Snoop Dog and has a new book to sell, Magnificent Desolation, which charts his rise, fall and re-emergence.
Aldrin touches on that personal topography here, in an interview with the Guardian , "I inherited tendencies in different directions [depression and addictive personality] and ... if you feed them with a life of perfection and discipline and then remove that all of a sudden, it's probably going to go back to some of the more deep-seated concerns about self-worth and achievement. You did that [went to the Moon]. What are you doing now? You get a job as a car salesman and you're a horrible car salesman. What does that do to a person's ego."
And here, in Brazilian magazine Veja, "Since I was on display so much and since I got so attached to the image of an acclaimed hero, readapting to normal life was a challenge. Being at the centre of such a grand accomplishment made my weaknesses surface. On the other hand, the trip reinforced my spirituality."
Aldrin was the quintessential astronaut. Born in Montclair, New Jersey on January 20, 1930, to Marion Moon, daughter of an Army Chaplain, and Edwin Eugene Aldrin, an Air Force colonel and aviation pioneer, he graduated from the US Military Academy at West Point and became a jet-fighter pilot, flying 66 Korean War combat missions during which he shot down two enemy MiG fighters.
He returned to his studies and wrote his thesis entitled Line-of-sight guidance techniques for manned orbital rendezvous, gaining him the moniker "Dr Rendezvous" among Nasa colleagues.
These days Aldrin is an enthusiastic advocate of colonising the moon and then Mars, and invented the "Aldrin Cycler", a spacecraft trajectory that passes near Earth and Mars and could be used as a shuttle route between the planets.
Having re-engaged with the stars and in Armstrong's absence from public profile, Aldrin has become the representation of man in space. It's no coincidence the Toy Story character is named Buzz Lightyear and perhaps no bad thing that Aldrin abandoned Edwin in favour of the nickname that emerged in childhood from his little sister mispronouncing brother as "buzzer".
The two Buzz's share an enthusiasm for space exploration and the real Buzz has pronounced himself "happy with the tribute", though noting the use of his name had not made him one cent.
Aldrin's reaction to some of the findings of the E&T poll is uncertain. Eleven out of 1009 people surveyed thought Buzz Lightyear was the first person to step on the Moon. A further eight thought it was Louis Armstrong and less than three-quarters named Armstrong.
Aldrin may not agree with Mitchell's views on Roswell but they agree it is time to get back out there. "We are a tiny grain of sand in a vast universe and and we got to the next grain of sand, the Moon," says Aldrin.
"Well," says Mitchell, asked to sum up by an interviewer following his appearance on Larry King Live, "I think the only thing that people [need to] understand is that our star system has a finite lifetime and we've got to continue our space exploration.
"We only have a couple more billion years to be on the planet."

Logic f/ Big Sean "Alright"
Logic gets a guest verse from Big Sean for a track that's actually more than "Alright". Logic sets the tone with a break-neck flow and Big Sean matches the high speed with a very solid second verse. It's a toss-up between Logic's 1st and 3rd verse — both are nice. Which means, overall, this is a track to be fuckin' with.

With every kidnapped journalist, every attack perpetrated against innocent civilians, and every threat levied against western civilization, Muslims the world over brace themselves for the inevitable association of Islam with violence.
When Muslims reject violence in the name of religion, we often present Islamic civilization's historical record as evidence of the religion's inherent capacity for peace, tolerance and justice. Most Muslims honor this history not because we seek to recreate an exact replica of its reality, but because it represents an enlightened realization of the spiritual principles upon which we draw daily sustenance in these trying times.
Yet, as much as we profess to honor our past, it is our past that lies in ruins across much of the Muslim world. From Cairo to Baghdad to Mecca and Medina, many of the most important historical sites of Islamic civilization, that in many ways represent our collective tradition of tolerance, peace and pursuit of that which is beautiful, lie either in ruins or at the brink of collapse.
The reality is not just symbolic, it is very real. The fact that Muslims from around the world would be up in arms if a stone from the Dome of the Rock was misplaced, but hardly raise a concern when the house of our beloved Prophet is near to being razed to the ground, demonstrates an overriding political orientation of our priorities that betrays the principles of our heritage. If the Muslim world today has failed to establish Islam upon the enlightened principles for which it stands, then the least we can do is make an effort to protect the historical record of those who successfully did so before us.
While concern for historic sites in Mecca and Medina have garnered some limited media attention, by and large the emphasis placed by the Muslim community towards protecting, preserving and honoring these dignified symbols of our past is scant at best, and non-existent at worst. It is often the case that Muslims are so busy trying to return to a "golden age" that they have forgotten what exactly constituted its many virtues.
In the latest issue of Islamica Magazine, we have collected a number of essays from leading scholars in the field in an effort to assess how various Muslim communities have come to address, or ignore, this critical issue. It is our hope that this effort will promote both discussion and awareness of a subject that should be of concern to anyone who believes that the history of Islamic Civilization is one worth remembering.
Firas Ahmad is Senior Editor of Islamica Magazine.

Date of Stay: August, 2010
We try other campgrounds but always come back to this one. It has everything we love about a campground except for cell service for our phones! The pool, the playground, the mini-golf, the fishing pond, the creek, the hiking trail, the dances on Saturday night, the wagon rides. The kids love it and so do we. The store is lacking a little, but we normally bring all we need. I cannot rave about this place enough!
Date of Stay: August, 2010
This is not a bad campground, but it is not the best, either. My main issue is the expense. They nickel and dime you death. We never thought to check for an extra charge for our five-year-old! $4/night for a 40 pound kid! The pool is nice, especially when it is raining, since it is indoors. I would not pay extra for the jumping pillow but the playground is awesome. The pond is a nice touch, but they might want to try and aerate it, since it looked suspiciously murky. We caught a few Bluegill but threw them back. The people there are really nice and very helpful, but we had to keep going back for internet codes, time and time again. Why not have a code that lasts until you check out? Also, the store was out of milk for at least two days and we had to drive to town to get bait for the fishing pond. We are not sure if we will go back.

We have a 97 wrx club spec and are having problems with our boost. It normally runs on 14psi but at the moment it is on safety boost of between 4-7psi. But it jumps from safety to normal boost on occasions. We ahve checked for kinks or holes in hoses but have found nothing.We have also tried disconnecting the battery to reset computer but this also has not worked. Is there anything else we can try or does anyone know what the problem could be? As we do not like running on safety boost not quick enough.

I had this same poster hanging in my office for ten years. When I recently retired, I wanted to re-mat it and hang it at home. When I removed the mat, I discovered that due to lack of UV protection in the glass, the poster had faded. Because I love the image, I reordered it. [...] It is now hanging in my home. I love the image...it's like falling into a dream of Paris at dawn.

Felix Hernandez reportedly seeking a six-year extension from Mariners
The four-year, $100-million offer to ace Felix Hernandez that the Seattle Mariners are reportedly considering would be far from enough, according to CBSSports.com's Jon Heyman.
The 26-year-old righty is seeking a six-year extension to the two years and $39.5 million he has remaining on his contract, Heyman is reporting. Though the Mariners have attempted to open contract talks, they have gained "no traction" in the exchange of offers.
Hernandez has stated publicly that he hopes to stay in Seattle for his entire career, but reportedly wants to sign a mega-deal similar to the $144- and $147-million deals recently signed by Phillies lefty Cole Hamels and Dodgers righty Zack Greinke, respectively.
Though technically the $25 million annual salary on the reported potential extension would be the highest ever on a per-year basis (for those four years, anyway), Hernandez surely knows that if he waits until free agency he could become baseball's best-paid pitcher, depending on what happens with Verlander and Kershaw.Hernandez owns a 98-76 career record and a 3.22 ERA. He posted a 2.27 ERA won the Cy Young Award in 2010, while finishing fourth and second in Cy Young voting in 2012 and 2009, respectively.
Verlander, who also has two years left before free agency, is three years older than Hernandez at 29, and while Kershaw is two years younger at 24, Kershaw has three years to go before free agency. Recent reports have suggested that neither Verlander nor Kershaw is in active contract dialogue with the Tigers or Dodgers, respectively.

How is it possible? This, my friends, is the question I am asking myself perpetually these days.
Take a gander at the wordcount widgets over to the right on your screen. If you're too lazy, I'll make it easier: it has a really big number on it. That's how big my current novel is. And I'm asking myself, how is it possible?
Truth be told, I don't know. I don't know how I've managed to dodge all of the bullets WB is constantly shooting at me. (WB: abbreviation for Writers' Bane, an organization devoted solely to the humiliation of writers everywhere. Donate today!) Writer's block, lack of time, pure indolence, broken wrists, debilitating sicknesses, death, what-have-you– somehow, I've avoided it all.
It must be that new Repel-All Body Armor I bought off of Percival last month. It works wonders, though the impervious visor does get a little steamy around midday.
Truth be told, I have no idea how I've gotten this far without dying. Between you and me, I don't think WB is giving it their all.
Really, I think that the only limit on how much I can write is how far my plot will let me write. Last November my plot forced me to wrap up at 50,172 words. This summer, I think I can make it at least to 85k before everything starts to fizzle out.
And if I'm really dedicated to getting to 100k, I can always write a 15k epilogue. Who would complain? Who would read it?
I think this story isn't worth spit. I think the beginning stinks. If Earth weren't such a big part of the plot, I'd sequester Vorse from its counterpart and make this a world apart from Earth and modern civilization.
That was a joke. A world apart? Never mind.
Where was I? Oh, yes, worth spit. I mean, not worth spit.
I've managed to cut my novel into a few distinct parts. Part one is what I call the beginning– quite a brilliant name, I think. That part goes from where the story begins to where my first main character is killed in a shipwreck.
The second part is what I call the middle– another awesome name. That goes from where I had my new main character fall off of a sinking ship to where I had my main character's employer try to kill him and my main character goes to find a new employer. Smart move, yes?
The third part is not the end, but middle part two. This is where the main character is in cahoots with the antagonist– his new employer, as it happens. This part also has the supporting characters that make up the good side actually work for the destruction of everything we know and love. I am actually still writing this part, so I'm not sure where it ends yet. But this is not the end, for I still have 10k left to go before I hit my goal.
The fourth part I don't want to think about because that might be called plotting, and I've had a lot of success with doing the exact opposite so far. This part– called the end– will be characterized by the 15k epilogue.
I really don't think WB is trying very hard. They might be gathering their forces for November, I fear… I don't exactly know why they haven't attacked, but I know that they haven't. Why? Because I haven't had writer's block. I haven't had a single day when I could write at least 2k, which is already over the average you might need to finish 50k in a month. My characters haven't refused to go on. There hasn't been a plot hole that wasn't resolved in the next scene– which, I have to say, is really cool. I'm writing, I realize that Hey, all of those man-eating hares aren't trying to eat the man that's standing in the midst of them… Why? In the next scene, the assassin mallard explains to the main character's former employer that he tried to kill the MC by giving him the hide of a volatile buffalo for a few things he needed to make, which explodes after being in contact with an energy source– such as a body– for so long. These hares have the instinct to stay away from the buffalo hide, and thus they don't try to kill the person who, surely, will be killed before long.
And yes, that's a real example.
This is an exhilarating draft, even though it's unlikable. I realized today that the reason I write as I go instead of plotting is because it feels like I'm reading a book. My mind picks out the potential plot holes, then when their cure comes to light I think, Oh… cool! I'm seriously writing like this. I don't know how it worked that the plot twist that robbed the antagonist of his enormous success (it was too early in the draft– I couldn't have it end there, so I stuck in a plot twist) was the same thing that saved the main character's life. If you're wondering, it was raw meat.
I might not be enjoying the story itself, but I'm enjoying how it's coming to light. The overall thing isn't worth spit, but the little aha moments are worth all of that.
Well. Not really. I'd still like to write something that had a lot of aha moments and still be good. But we can't have everything, can we?
I can't help but think how many aha moments I would have missed if I had plotted this thing all the way out. I did actually outline the first few chapters with the old antagonist– the one who was killed before those first few chapters were over. I didn't do anything that the outline told me to do. For instance, I thought that Captain Victor the coat peg would surely have a wooden body that he could maneuver about instead of the two ships he wrecked and a duck he just stabbed and controlled for a brief time. I also thought there would be some awesome sword fights somewhere in this. No. I have a knife fight, and my main character was stabbed by a coat peg– yes, it was Victor. If you remember, in the character outline for Laidue, my second (and real) antagonist, I said that Laidue had a liking for the entity governing cold. Well, I didn't plan on the fact that my new main character was being hunted by that same entity governing cold precisely because it would spite Laidue, and I definitely didn't think that the cold guy's chief correspondent and tool would be a sentient rock.
I absolutely hate how I'm describing the high points of the story to you and it sounds like my characters are just running around meeting talking animals that explode, or inanimate objects that can talk. There's much more to it than that.
And this brings me to my next thought: after a lot of editing, this thing could be readable. It's possible. After a lot of editing, in which the story would change completely– because I must keep the integrity of the story by haphazardly throwing things together– and my characters' motivations would change utterly, it would be readable. But is this the great American novel, written by the new Christopher Paolini?
I sincerely hope not. Unfortunately, I don't think so.
Seriously, though, if WB wants to keep me from writing this thing, they're letting a lot of aha moments slip through. I am having the time of my characters' lives.

Last week we offered you the Cuvee Alexandre Cabernet Sauvignon from Casa Lapostolle asking/stating it as the Greatest Deal in Cabernet for the Year.
Looks like we were right!!!
The wine is part of Wine Spectator's Top 100 Wines of the Year in at #68 and this is the only Cabernet Sauvignon in the Top 100 Under $40 per bottle! We have it for under $20!!!
For Cabernet Sauvignon based wines this beauty for only $18.95 per bottle really is a stand-out value. In addition to being in the Top 100 wines of the Year when you search on Wine Spectator.com using the advance options for Cabernet Sauvignon & blends, rated 90 points or higher, max price of $25 and reviewed within the last 12 months...the 2010 Casa Lapostolle Cuvee Alexandre is the BEST BUY Cabernet Sauvignon. There is no other Cabernet Sauvignon from anywhere in the world popping up that costs the same or less with a higher score! (The five listed before without price noted in this search...well they are all over $25; considerably.)
Now with the Top 100 placement for this wine in place there is no question that this is one of the best buys of the year and frankly one of the best of the Top 100. More Top 100 details will be coming soon but we wanted to make sure we got this great press out to you ASAP.

Since it began, Kickstarter* has been home to musicians and film makers looking to fund their projects. It has now become a hotbed of innovation as designers, inventors and entrepreneurs tap into the vast "crowdfunding" community to realise their ideas.
The concept of crowdfunding is simple: If lots of people chip in, a project can raise the funds it needs to go ahead. It's an idea that has seen considerable success in music and film, possibly because such artistes often have a close relationship with their fans. Independently-minded musicians such as Ani DiFranco, for example, have been building direct relationships with fans for years.
Crowdfunding sites make that process much easier than ever before. Project owners decide on a goal for how much money they want to raise, a deadline, and then provide a series of rewards at different price points for supporters to choose. It's then a case of persuading people to back the project.
Artists are already talking about Kickstarter as being better than the traditional arts grants system because it's less tedious than filling in all the grant forms and, at the end of the process, the artist retains full creative control. Plus Kickstarter's all-or-nothing set-up means that it's a low-risk strategy for newcomers. If a project doesn't raise enough cash, well – no harm, no foul – it's cancelled.
Just recently, though, I've noticed a class of project that's beginning to give the musicians and film makers a run for their money: Inventors. From camping hammocks to iPad/keyboard stands, to bicycle lights, the inventors have arrived and they are doing rather well.
The benefits to product designers of this fundraising model are huge. For many creators, the biggest cost is time and overheads such as renting a studio. Creators focused on digital products such as MP3s can cut costs even further, allowing them to achieve a lot with very little money. But for physical objects, there is often a disproportionate up-front cost to creation. Machine tooling, minimum orders, and R&D can all eat through large sums of money before there is anything to actually sell.
Using a crowdfunding site allows inventors to test the market to see if there is enough demand for their idea before committing to these huge overheads. In doing so, they also test their marketing skills and come to understand the depth and breadth of their community.
Although funding a project before production begins reduces initial risk, there is always the risk that a runaway success will force businesses to scale rapidly and before they are ready. This is where poor financial planning can prove detrimental. Underestimating the cost of a reward is not such a big deal if there's only ten to send out. Selling 1,000, on the other hand, can turn a small discrepancy into a disaster.
When it comes to runaway successes, though, the big daddy of them all is Scott Wilson's TikTok and LunaTik, two wrist straps which take an iPod Nano and turn it into a watch. With 13,512 backers, Wilson raised $942,578. That's a sum similar to amounts raised from seed or angel investors, but without having to sign over any equity. Not bad, given he only asked for $15,000.
Wilson's not alone. Plenty of other projects are raising significant sums. The Kammok camping hammock has so far raised $192,092 from 1,755 backers, with just a few hours to go. The WingStand raised $58,869 from 1,485 backers. And Revolights, which has about 27 days left on its project, currently has raised $90,337 from 677 people.
These aren't sums to sniff at. If I was a VC, I'd be watching Kickstarter like a hawk. It's easy to assess design, marketing and planning skills, as well as get some idea of team cohesion – all important factors in making a business viable. As a proving ground, Kickstarter is second to none, in all of its categories.
The downside to Kickstarter is that it's based on Amazon Payments, which means that although supporters can be anywhere around the world, projects can only be started by someone with a US bank account. Kickstarter say they are working on opening up to other countries but, if you can't wait, there are many other sites doing the same thing that are more inclusive.
These other sites split roughly into two categories. The All Or Nothing model used by Kickstarter, French site Ulule, British site CrowdFunder, and Australian site Pozible. The other option is the Keep What You Can Raise model where even if you don't reach your goal, you still get to keep as much as you have raised. This model is used by up-and-comer IndieGoGo, RocketHub and Italian site Kapipal. The problem with this approach, of course, is that it can be hard to complete a project if it is underfunded.
These other sites don't quite have the huge community of funders that Kickstarter has built up over the last three years, which means projects tend to be smaller. But with the social web to help entrepreneurs to get their word out, and the problem of aggregating and processing lots of small payments solved, suddenly barrier to innovation is dramatically lowered. Got an idea? Got good communications skills? Got a post box nearby? Then you're good to go.
Whether you're looking for inventive tech and creative projects to fund, or want to start raising money yourself, crowdfunding opens the door to innovation. It's not about financial capital anymore, but creative skills and social capital.
* Disclosure: I have used Kickstarter to fund my own creative projectand have supported a number of other Kickstarter projects.

My Cup Runneth Over
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (October 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
"My Cup Runneth Over" is a quotation from the Hebrew Bible[1] (Psalm 23:5) and means "I have more than enough for my needs" though interpretations and usage may vary. Notably, it can be employed sarcastically to indicate that someone, e.g. one's host, is being less than generous.
In the Bible[edit]
This phrase, in Hebrew כּוֹסִי רְוָיָה, kosi rewaya, is translated in the traditionally used King James Version as my cup runneth over. Newer translations of the phrase include "my cup overflows"[2] and "my cup is completely full."[3] The 23rd psalm, in which this phrase appears, uses the image of God as a shepherd and the believer as a sheep well cared-for. Julian Morgenstern has suggested that the word translated as "cup" could contain a double meaning: both a "cup" in the normal sense of the word, and a shallow trough from which one would give water to a sheep.[4] Other interpreters have suggested that verses 5 and 6 of Psalm 23 do not carry forward the "shepherd" metaphor begun in verse 1, but that these two verses are set in some other, entirely human, setting.[5] Andrew Arterbury and William Bellinger read these verses as providing an metaphor of God as a host, displaying hospitality to a human being.[6] Thus, alongside other actions in Psalm 23, such as preparing a table, and anointing one's guest with oil, providing a full or even overflowing cup for him to drink from can be read as an illustration of God's generosity to the Psalmist.[6]
In music[edit]
|"My Cup Runneth Over"
|Single by Ed Ames
|from the album My Cup Runneth Over
|RCA Victor
The phrase is the title of a popular song written by Harvey Schmidt with lyrics by Tom Jones, featured in the 1966 Broadway musical, I Do! I Do!, which starred Robert Preston and Mary Martin. The most popular recording of the song was made by Ed Ames in 1967, which was a #8 pop (#9 Can.) and #1 AC hit in the United States.[7] Another version of the song is performed by popular New Zealand barbershop quartet, the Musical Island Boys.[8]
The quotation has been used extensively in other music. Rapper Project Pat employed the quotation in its most literal sense when he stated "Patron in my cup runneth over" in his song "I Keep That" from his post-incarceration album Crook by da Book: The Fed Story. Rap artists Eminem and Jay-Z have used it in "Rabbit Run" and "Can't Knock the Hustle" respectively, and Eminem has also used the phrase "His cup just runneth over, oh no!" in the song "Forever", while actor and musician Drake used it in "Ignant Shit" as well as in a collaborative song with Eminem called "Forever"; Justin Timberlake also uses the phrase "Sipping from your cup 'til it runneth over" on Jay-Z's song "Holy Grail". Rapper T.I. uses the term in his song "sorry", where the first words spoken on the track are "My cup runneth over...". Rock musicians have also used the phrase. It is in the opening lyrics of "December" by Collective Soul and in the opening line of the Alice in Chains song "Bleed the Freak", while the death metal band Aborted include the phrase as a lyric in "Pestiferous Subterfuge" and the virtual band Gorillaz referenced the phrase in "All Alone". A variation is also used in the song "So Appalled" from rapper/producer Kanye West's album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy when fellow rapper Cyhi the Prynce says "My cup overrunneth with hundreds," referring to one-hundred dollar bills. This line is also similar to rapper Jay-Z's line in his song "Can't Knock the Hustle" from his album Reasonable Doubt when he too says "My cup runneth over with hundreds." The words are exactly repeated in the song "Manifest" by the Fugees in their 1996 album The Score.
The quotation is also used in the 1966 Broadway musical "The Apple Tree" directed by Mike Nichols with music by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and a book by Bock and Harnick with contributions from Jerome Coopersmith. It starred Barbara Harris, Alan Alda, and Larry Blyden. It is used in the song "Gorgeous."
The quotation also features prominently in the Bob Marley song "My Cup" and in the Dennis Brown song "Here I come". It is also used by Tavares in their disco hit-song "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel". It also features in the song "Desert Sand" by UB40 and in the Brandon Flowers song, "Magdalena", from the album Flamingo.
It also features in The Stone Roses' song "Tightrope", on their album Second Coming and in Andrew Bird's song "I want to see Pulaski at Night", which is also featured in the second season premiere episode of Orange Is the New Black.
In video games[edit]
"My cup runneth over!" is screamed as an expression of ecstasy by the fictional character William Bedford Diego in the 1999 video game System Shock 2, while in World of Warcraft, fictional character Blood Prince Valanar uses the phrase during the "Blood Prince Council" encounter. Also Pandaren Brewmaster from Dota 2 uses it. "Your cup runneth over!" is also an Achievement//Trophy in Devil May Cry 4. In an easter egg in "Day of the Tentacle" there is a Victorian photograph resembling the character Max from Sam & Max Hit the Road with the caption "The late Max Attucks, his petard runneth over." In the MOBA, Smite, it is the name of a Match of the Day, where teams begin the match at max level, accompanied with 12,000 gold to purchase items.
In television[edit]
"Thy cup runneth over" was the catch-phrase of the coverage of the 2010 FIFA World Cup on the Australian Special Broadcasting Service (SBS). In the animated series Daria, the title character uses the phrase sarcastically in the episode "I Loathe a Parade". This term has also been referred to in ABC's new series GCB.
In GCB's second episode, "Hell Hath No Fury (GCB)", Amanda and other waitresses of Boobilicious have "My Cup Runneth Over" printed on the backs of their T-shirts.
In the first episode of the second season of Sex and the City, Samantha says "His cup runneth over", referring to a football player who wears a protective cup.
In an "A Few Minutes with Andy Rooney" segment on the topic of driveways, Rooney uses a modified version of the phrase: "Like the garage, the driveway is never quite big enough. There never has been a driveway big enough in the whole history of driveways. Our driveways runneth over."
In Fate/Zero, the lines "yea,though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou prepares a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over," by Kirei Kotomine.
In the animated science-fiction comedy series Rick and Morty the expression is used sarcastically when Rick searches for a new planet, he and his family can live on. Rick: "How many planets in the milkyway are at least 90% similar to earth?" Computer: "765 known planets." Rick: "How many of those are outside Federal Jurisdiction" Computer: "3" Rick: "See, our cup runneth over!"
Other uses[edit]
It is used in the movies A Tree Grows in Brooklyn and Hope Floats.
The phrase is also used as the title for Cherry Whytock's book My Cup Runneth Over: The Life of Angelica Cookson Potts.
The theatre production Avenue Q uses the line when Rod expresses how overwhelmed he is at the sight of his new boyfriend that his roommate Nicky had found for him on the internet. "Sweet suffering Jesus! My cup runneth over!"

A 59-year-old unemployed North Carolina man says he tried to rob a Gastonia bank of $1 to get arrested so he would have access to medical care, WCNC-TV reports.
In a weekend interview with the Charlotte TV station, James Verone tells reporter Rad Berky that he has no money but suffers from a growth on his chest and ruptured discs.
He calls himself a "logical-type person" and the bank robbery scheme was the best he could come up with to get medical treatment.
Verone approached the teller window two weeks ago with a note that read, 'This is a bank robbery, and I need medical attention." He then sat down on a sofa and waited for police to arrive.
He says he hopes for a three-year sentence, so he would be eligible for Social Security by the time he gets out.
His plan may not work entirely as he had hoped. Because he demanded only $1 and did not use a weapon, Verone was charged not with bank robbery, but with larceny, which carries a much shorter sentence.

I have been trying to figure out the recipe
from this restaurant in Honolulu, Zippy's ,
and how to make their Macaroni Salad
I found a post when I "Googled":
All Zippy's recipes are proprietary; however, I am able to provide you with the ingredients so that you may have a chance to experiment with it. Here are the ingredients:
Best Foods Mayonnaise (do not substitute)
Elbow macaroni noodles
Round onions
Do not keep any leftovers more than 48 hours after preparation.
Committed to Serve,
Joyce Lee
Customer Service Manager
Someone else wrote that Zippy's neglected
to mention another ingredient, MSG
One person wrote on a Honolulu Star Bulletin Blog site that they added 1 Tbsp of MSG for every 2 quarts of salad.
If you've ever had the salad you know what we all talk about,
very ONO !!
There was a thread awhile back in regards to the mac salad in Hawaii
If someone, one of you FANTASTIC chefs out there could help a home sick island gal out ?

I have a parrot ck3000 car kit installed in my e46 for the last two years. Over the last month i noticed some clicking coming from the back right speaker and you could notice the radio screen dim slightly for a second when the speaker clicked.
lately when on calls the person on the other end complained of clicking noise during the call. Last night i took the car kit and radio out and with the ignition on but the engine off i could hear random clicking noise from the fuse box. I've checked all the wiring and cant find any shorts. Fuse 7 has blown once which I've replaced.
Could i have a faulty relay thats clicking for no reason? or would a short on the back right speaker blow fuse 5?
the clicking relay seems to be one of the four directly above the fuses.
Checked battery voltage. 12.0 at rest after parked up for a few hours, 14.0 running.
On a separate issue that may or may not be connected, for the last year the car often rests up for weeks on end and then if you go to start it there is a few seconds pause when the ignition is turned all the way to start and the engine actually turning over. this only happens first time after a long rest, after that it starts straight away each time.
