The owner of a Jewish deli in Albuquerque found an anti-Semitic message stuck to her establishment's front door on a mailing label.
"To the Kikes who should die," the message stuck on the front door of the Nosh Deli said, KOB News reported.
A second label read "To the Kikes who gave me a black eye."
It is the first time her store has been targeted, owner Alisa Turtletaub told the news channel.
The FBI is investigating the incident, according to the report.
Susan Seligman, New Mexico Anti-Defamation League regional director, said it is the first reported anti-Semitic threat in New Mexico in the last couple of years, though white power prison gangs were active 15 to 20 years ago.
She believes the attack was perpetrated by an individual acting alone.

Stockholm's I Break Horses have a new remix out today of another shoegazing duo. The Swedes have reworked the track "Closet Addicts Anonymous" by South Wales' Man Without Country (a.k.a. Ryan James and Tomas Greenhalf).
The original track is an angsty, alt-rock track with electronic elements and appears on Man Without Country's debut full-length, Foe, due out June 5 via Lost Balloon/Cooperative Music. I Break Horses' version is far slower and spacier, with distorted vocals and a barrage of synthesizers. Check out both versions of "Closet Addicts Anonymous" below.

Catholic University of Chile (Santiago)
Current Position
Dr. Gutiérrez is an associate professor in the Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology at the Catholic University of Chile in Santiago, Chile.
Current Research
Spatiotemporal Nitrogen Regulatory Networks in Arabidopsis thaliana
Chilean biologist Rodrigo Gutiérrez thinks plants take a lot of undeserved abuse. The resilience with which they handle it ought to earn them more respect among scientists, he argues.
"We stomp on them, pull leaves off, and they manage to survive—without the ability to think or move away," he says. "They've been here well before us and they'll probably be there after us. But we know so very little about them."
Part of Gutiérrez's lifelong obsession with plants is driven by an admiration for their ability to adapt to conditions where they live. To survive, plants must be prepared to manufacture the molecules they need in a given situation. Gutiérrez is particularly interested in the metabolic pathways they use to produce the right molecules at the right times.
When he entered college, eager to begin investigating the questions that intrigued him, he naively thought he would go to the library's reading room and read through all the current scientific journals. When he saw several hundred titles, he was shocked by the staggering amount of information available—and dismayed that he could never read it all.
"I knew there had to be another way to look at problems beyond a reductionist approach of separating things into their parts and analyzing them in detail," Gutiérrez says.
Today, in his lab at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile (Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile), he abandoned that piecemeal approach in favor of the big picture. He's studying how plants detect and respond to nitrogen from the perspective of the whole organism—one of the first to take the "systems biology" approach to plant research.
Nitrogen availability is what most often limits plants' growth, both naturally and agriculturally. To boost growth, farmers add fertilizers to the soil, but because plants cannot reach, absorb, or use all of the added nitrogen, as much as 40 to 70 percent can be lost to the environment. The leftover nitrogen contributes to greenhouse gases, acid rain, coastal dead zones, and global warming. Improving the efficiency with which plants use nitrogen could lessen the demand for fertilizers, reducing both agricultural expense and environmental toxicity.
To do that, Gutiérrez says, scientists need a better understanding of how nitrogen-sensing pathways interact with pathways through which plant hormones trigger growth and development. He wants to draw a detailed molecular picture of how a plant responds to nitrogen and how that response varies in different cells and as the plant progresses through different life stages. "In concept, this sounds very simple," Gutiérrez says. "But in practice it is a very complicated thing."
A single experiment examining a plant's genetic response to a few different conditions can yield thousands of data points, Gutiérrez points out; related experiments might generate equally long lists of proteins or RNA molecules. All of these different kinds of information must be integrated to make the data truly meaningful, he argues. It's a daunting task, particularly with existing computational tools. So alongside the experimental work in his lab, Gutiérrez has recruited a team of computer programmers and bioinformatics specialists to develop better bioinformatics tools. "For the type of work we do, it is really important to be able to do both [biology and computer science]," he says. "The mathematical models we make are good guesses, but they need to be tested in the lab because so little is known about plant metabolism."
With this approach, Gutiérrez is turning up connections between processes that traditionally have been studied by different camps of biologists. In collaboration with his postdoctoral advisor, U.S. scientist Gloria Coruzzi, he found a regulatory mechanism that links nitrogen sensing to the plant's circadian clock, so that nitrogen is procured only when light can supply the energy needed to build proteins. His team in Chile has also found a feedback loop between nitrogen availability and the plant hormone auxin, which controls root architecture. They showed that excess nitrate in soil turns up the volume on auxin signaling, causing the plant to slow downward root growth and switch to expanding its lateral roots. In other words, the plant stops exploring and roots increase their surface area for better nitrogen intake.
Gutiérrez's fascination with plant metabolism extends outside the lab to his own garden, where he cultivates herbs and peppers. The searing capsaicin produced by his Bolivian locoto, or "crazy hot," peppers offers a dramatic example of the specialized compounds that plants can produce—exactly what attracted him to plant biology in the first place.

| Set 50 years after the climactic events of the original Red Faction, Red Faction: Guerrilla is a third-person shooter that allows players to take the role of an insurgent fighter with the newly reestablished Red Faction guerilla movement on Mars as they battle for liberation from the oppressive Earth Defense Force. Red Faction: Guerrilla redefines the limits of destruction-based gameplay with a huge open-world, fast-paced guerilla-style combat, 16-player online multiplayer and true physics-based destruction.
In the year 2075, the Earth Defense Force (EDF) received a distress signal from a small mining facility on the surface of Mars. A group of rebels calling themselves the Red Faction had overthrown the ruthless Ultor Corporation after years of oppression. The EDF responded by launching a fleet of warships to Mars to aid the miners, bring Ultor to justice and restore order to the Martian colonies. In order to ensure safety and security for the newly liberated colonists, the EDF set up command posts and bases across the planet. Initially, under the EDF's rule, the people of Mars prospered: colonists established homesteads, built towns and independent mining operations and began to stake and work their mining claims. But the more things change on Mars, the more they stay the same. The troubles began with colonists being driven from their homes and mining claims by greedy, Earth-based corporations. Then came a 50 year turn of events that saw the EDF adopting the heavy-handed tactics that it once stood against. Yet in doing so it also instilled a deep-seated resentment among the miners and settlers of the Martian colonies. One of these new Martians is miner Alec Mason, whose dream of a new life carved out of the course Martian soil was crushed in the face of EDF-ordered curfews, detention centers, beatings, mass arrests and personal tragedy. But as powerful as the EDF is, there is resistance. Mason and a small group of revolutionaries have banded together, taken up the Red Faction name and pledged to again bring about a free Mars. And though their enemy has changed, their battle cry remains unchanged: "Better Red than Dead." Key Game Features:
You don't stand a chance against the EDF using standard military tactics. The only recourse when the few stand against the many is the use of hit and run tactics. Learn the routes of the patrols and quickest ways in and out of EDF strongholds. By studying these things you can instinctively know when to attack, and when to wait for a better opportunity. Ambushes are also useful in thinning EDF ranks. Remote charges and proximity mines are your best friend when preparing an ambush. A few well-placed charges on the structural supports of a bridge can do wonders for stopping a convoy dead in its tracks. Above all else, remember this: guerilla tactics are not about fighting fair, they are about winning.

Aug 2, 2012 at 8:10 pm #1292575
Jeffrey McConnellBPL Member
@catalystLocale: SoCal
So, I helped out on a scout trip recently to the western sierras and I took my tenkara rod out and its first backpacking trip. We were camped by some lakes and I found that I was wishing I had my spin rod to get a little distance. I felt limited by my tenkara rod, which is fine since they are really more suited to streams.
I'm backpacking Whitney this September via Cottonwood Lakes and I'll have the opportunity to fish some more lakes. There are some nice streams as well, but I'm going to have a hard time convincing my buddies to stop for some stream fishing along the way, since I'm the only one that fishes. Should I just take my spin rod for the lakes we stay at and call it good, or do I just need to be a little more stealthy with my tenkara lake fishing and not worry about the limited range?Aug 2, 2012 at 8:58 pm #1899743

@rglessLocale: San Francisco Bay Area
As much as I love to flyfish I often find that on lakes the fish in the Sierras are often 10-30 ft beyond my casting range. You can wait and hope they come in closer or give up and go to a spinning rig casting a bobber and a fly. The spinning rig also lets you use spinners. Sometimes flies work better morning and evening and spinners are better during the day. If it's hot especially later in the season and the fish are all deep, you can get down deep with a spinner and a long count or just by adding some weight.Aug 3, 2012 at 1:23 pm #1899907

@dmacdaddyLocale: West
Well, I've taken both with me on quite a few trips and truthfully, with the Tenkara weighing so little, there isn't much of a penalty with regards to weight (4oz.). Even though I enjoy getting a spinner out to deeper water, using Tenkara has been amazing.
With Alpine Lakes, so many of the larger 'cruisers' are so close to shore, particularly later and earlier in the day. On our last trip, I actually caught just as many and of good size with my 12' Iwana than I did with my spin outfit. I used to think that Tankara was going to be used for mostly rivers/streams and the spin rod would be for the lakes but, I have changed that paradigm.
I am considering just taking the Iwana on the next trip into the lakes and I am confident I'll have no regrets. That said, I just love fishing too much to not want to take both rods on trips. I'm now having to ask myself that if my main goal is to catch as many fish as possible (never really feel this way), than spin has the most flexibility and best chance of accomplishing my goal. If, on the other hand, I want to just catch some fish and simplify the experience…I go with tenkara. By sight fishing near shore for large cruisers…I've done extremely well and had more fun doing it.

Thanks for the input. Yeah, I'm considering taking both since my tenkara set up is so lot. At least for the next couple trips until I figure out which setup I like using in different situations.Aug 3, 2012 at 11:37 pm #1900047

@skeetsLocale: Melbourne, Australia
you may also wish to look at the daiwa top end tenkara rods also, from sites like eg. TenkaraBum. They are lighter than the TUSA rods if you are a gram weenie, and would very much go unnoticed – about 1.5 oz for a 13ft rod is right out there. As usual, though, at the margin gram cuts cost $$$ and these are top end rods with top end prices.Aug 13, 2012 at 1:52 pm #1902374

@burtonatorLocale: norcal
This is anecdotal but I've found that I *crush* other fly fishermen with my spinning rig.
I usually pack an ultralight spinning rod and reel and 2 lb test and 2-3 spinners.
Just last week I bumped into a guy on the trail who was fly fishing a lake I was about to visit. He said he caught two fish in an hour.
I got to the lake and caught two fish in two minutes (first two casts) with my spinning rod.
I ended up catching about 14 fish in an hour and kept about 2.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Aug. 27 (Xinhua) -- Brazilian police are clamping down on organised groups of football hooligans as the World Cup draws nearer.
The move came after serious incidents in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo after violent confrontations between rival supporters.
In Sao Paulo, Palmeiras and Santos fans clashed after a classic at the weekend, whilst last week a Vasco fan was stabbed to death in Rio after a match between the two clubs.
Next year, the cities of Rio, Belo Horizonte, Recife and Salvador will host the Confederations Cup, FIFA's dress rehearsal for the World Cup the following year.
With a massive influx of tourists expected for both events, the government want to ensure visitors to the country and attend a football match in a peaceful environment.
On Saturday, when Carioca clubs Fluminense and Vasco met in the Campeonato Brasileiro, members of Flu firm Young Flu were arrested for robbery and the assault of two Vasco supporters.

Barlow, Sir Alan (James Alan Noel)
Born London, 25 December 1881 - Died Wendover, Bucks, 28 February 1968
English civil servant and collector of Islamic and Chinese art. The eldest son of Sir Thomas Barlow, royal physician and president of the Royal College of Physicians, he was educated at Marlborough and Corpus Christi College, Oxford. In 1906 he was appointed to a clerkship in the House of Com- mons, by 1933 he was principal private secretary to the Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald, and from 1934 to 1948 he served at the Treasury. He began collecting Oriental ceramics in 1900 and started acquiring Islamic pottery five years later, amassing a comprehensive collection with a special emphasis on Ottoman and Iranian items within 20 years. He built up his collection of Chinese art in the early 1920s, when several British collectors led by George Eumorfopoulos acquired objects excavated in China. Barlow preferred early austere Chinese pottery with little polychrome decoration. During the 1920s and 1930s he also continued to acquire Islamic items, and some of his pieces were shown in 1931 at the Exhibition of Persian Art (London, RA). From 1948 to 1955 he was a trustee of the National Gallery, London, serving as chairman from 1949 to 1951; he also became president of the Oriental Ceramic Society in London. His other interests included antiquarian books and modern printing, and he was president (194562) of the Buckinghamshire Archaeological Society. He gave his Chinese collection to Sussex University and in 1956 gave almost all of his early Islamic pottery (c. 150 items) to the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford (with a further six pieces going to the British Museum and seven to the Victoria and Albert Museum). Later he gave eight pieces of Turkish pottery to the Athenaeum Club and 16 pieces to the Savile Club, London. His widow presented five Islamic pieces to the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, and six to the Percival David Foundation of Chinese Art, University of London; the rest of his Islamic collection (over 100 items) remained with his family.

Nick Caserio: Draft is only one part of an ongoing team-building process
|04.23.13 at 12:07 am ET
FOXBORO — Despite the fact that the initial wave of free agency is complete and the draft will soon be done, the team-building process doesn't stop when the calendar flips from April to May.
In fact, once Mr. Irrelevant hears his name called on Saturday of draft weekend, the process is really just getting started. The 24 to 48 hours after the draft is always a crazy stretch, as each team around the league scrambles to find the best available talent in the form of undrafted and rookie free agents. Historically, the Patriots have always managed to find at least one player who ends up being a serious contributor down the road.
'Rookie free agents always play a big role in the draft,' Patriots director of player personnel Nick Caserio said Monday. 'If you just look at our track record through the years: BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Dane Fletcher, Justin Francis, Marcus Forston, Brandon Bolden, those guys last year. They're always part of the equation.'
On the current roster, there are 29 players who were undrafted, and while not all of them initially signed with New England, many of them figure to play some sort of role with the 2013 Patriots, including Fletcher and Bolden, as well as long snapper Danny Aiken; wide receiver Danny Amendola; cornerback Kyle Arrington and Marquice Cole; tight end Jake Ballard; offensive linemen Dan Connolly, Nick McDonald and Ryan Wendell, and defensive lineman Kyle Love. They all went undrafted, but still found a spot on an NFL roster.
Ultimately, the signing and development of those players are a large part of the team-building process, and this year should be no exception, particularly because the Patriots have only five draft picks. It's the lowest amount New England has had since Bill Belichick took over before the 2000 season.
'Just from a sheer numbers standpoint, the roster is right around — let's call it 70 players, give or take. So we're going to be adding 20 more players to the team before we go to training camp,' Caserio said.
'That could come from draft picks, it could come from undrafted free agents. Whether or not they play a larger role this year, possibly. There are still street free agents that are available. You're always looking at a multitude of ways to put your team together. We'll take 90 to training camp and then we'll go from there.'
Ultimately, the draft is another step in the overall assemblage of the roster, which will also inevitably include more free agent activity between now and the start of the season.
'I think the draft is part of the process. Really, the team-building exercise, it kind of never stops. It's ongoing, specific to one segment of the year,' Caserio said. 'The team-building process is non-stop. It's ongoing. Once we get post-draft, there might even be a period during training camp … like Rob Ninkovich, just to pick a name. I think we signed him the first week of August in 2009 in training camp. Rob has ended up being one of the better players we've had in our program. It's constant and ongoing.
'It never stops. In the end, the most important thing is try to do whatever we can to help our team win games. Whatever shape that takes, then that's what we'll do.'
Here are some other highlights of Caserio's Monday afternoon Q&A with the media:
You guys have five draft picks. In the past you've talked about the flexibility having a lot of picks give you. With so few picks, do you go into this draft with the mindset of trying to create more flexibility for yourselves?
'That sort of materializes in and of itself. Even going into the draft last year, we really hadn't had any substantive discussions about moving up or moving down. It just kind of happened to materialize once we were in the draft room and once we were on the phone. Could that happen when we get to the draft Thursday night? Possibly. But if we don't, if we have five, we have five picks. We'll take it as it comes. I don't think it changes our philosophy. We're going to know the board top to bottom like we do every year. If there is an opportunity that presents itself that makes sense, then we'll consider it. I think you always have to be prepared to pick, regardless of how many picks that you have.'
Would you like to have more picks?
'We'll take whatever we can get. However we get them, we'll take them. If we end up with five, we end up with five. If we get more, we get more.'
How often does it happen where you just get stuck? Maybe you want to move but you can't because there's no one to move with?
'I think when you go into the draft, you know going in, 'OK, you have X amount of selections that you're going to make.' You have to be prepared every time your name comes up. That doesn't change from one year to the next. However many picks you have, you make the pick and if there's an opportunity that's out there that makes sense for you to move either way then you consider if it's the best thing for ourselves at the time, then we'll do it.'
I've heard a lot of people say there's depth but not it's not that elite that it's even across the board. Does that dynamic make it a little less predictable when you're trying to forecast what will happen in front of you?
'I'd say on a year-to-year basis, the top of the draft is, there are a handful of guys that are pretty certain and then really after that, they could come off the board in any number of different ways. I don't think anything really surprises you anymore when you get to this point. I'd say this year really isn't any different than any other years, at least from our perspective. That's just our belief and our opinion. There are a lot of good football players that you're going to be able to find: early, late, after the draft. They're out there. You just have to find them. In the end, you have to take players that you feel fit your team the best. If you like the player, then you pick the player, wherever that is.'
When you're drafting as low as you've typically drafted, down in the 20s, how much time do you spend trying to forecast what's going to happen in front of you or is that a waste of time?
'It's difficult but let's just say, we stay at 29, there are going to be 28 players that come off the board. How are they going to come off the board, its kind of hard to tell. You may have some degree of knowledge or you may have a feel one way or another of what a team may be looking at based on your research and analysis going through team-by-team needs analysis. But where we're picking, it's hard to say, 'These 28 players, they're going to be gone when we pick.' That's a little bit of a dice roll. If it works out that way, then so be it. But I would say by and large, it probably doesn't.'
When pick you a guy as a college captain, how much does that figure into the résumé in your overall approach?
'It's just part of their profile. Sometimes a captain is liked by the team, sometimes a captain is liked by the coach. But I think in the end, you're just trying to look at the entire profile and the player's body of work: his performance on the field, his character, his intangibles, his makeup, those types of things. It speaks to the player obviously, that they've done something right in their career and the players think highly of them and the coaches think highly of them. You take that into consideration but it's just a part of the broader picture that you're trying to establish on the player.'
Does the spread offense keep it at a primitive level or does it make it a little more sophisticated where you're able to find guys that are a little more polished?
'I think it depends on the system because each team kind of employs it differently. The pace has definitely come into play at the collegiate level. That could also simplify some things because some teams say, 'OK, we have a menu of plays one through ten and essentially they have to memorize them'. So if one word means one thing, it kind of tells everybody what to do. Or we've talked to some players where they've looked to the sideline and there are five coaches signaling to the players, one for each position. So OK, one player is looking at this coach, another player is looking at that coach, so they're focused on one thing only. So I think you have to look at the system and then I think you have to do your research and just look at a variety of different things. To what extent the schematic, how complicated it may or may not be, the terminology that's involved, what they're asking of the player. It's not necessarily the spread and passing oriented, I think it's really system specific and what they ask those players to do and then you have to make a determination, 'OK, how is that going to translate or not translate? Or we're starting at Point A and this is what we have to do to get them to Point B. Or this player is a little bit further along.' That's where you have to do your own homework and make that determination, 'OK, here's what we think moving forward.''
Are California and Southern California pro-style offenses? They have receivers, Keenan Allen and Robert Woods, I'm wondering if they would be a little bit farther along.
'If you look at just the Cal program, Coach [Jeff] Tedford [was] a great coach for a number of years. They run a pretty sophisticated offense. They ask those players to do a number of things. Coach [Lane] Kiffin has an NFL background. He's implemented some of those philosophies into his offense. I think you have to look at it on a team-by-team relative basis. In the end though, you still have to do your own homework and see, 'OK, well here's what they were asked to do. Maybe we're going to ask them to do that. Here's what we're going to ask them to do. How are they going to be able to execute that? Are they going to be able to retain it? Are they going to be able to learn?' Etcetera.'
What's your wish list in terms of needs?
'I think our wish list is to improve the team. That's the bottom line. Like I said, it all goes back to whatever we need to do help the team win games, then that's what we'll do. We're going to add players that we feel can help us win, that's what we're going to try to do.'
How do you go about weighing the options if a better player falls to you, compared to one that better fits a pressing need?
'I think you just have to look at how the players come off. We'll go through each stack horizontally and vertically. We've done the vertical stack which is by position then you start to work across. Then you just look at it in relative terms. Really you just have to make a determination. You can only pick one player so there's a lot of things that I would say come into play: short term, long term. You pick the player that you feel is best for your team and that's what you do.'
Being three days out, will you guys still go on the road these last couple days?
'We have, we have. That's something that I've done personally. We have some coaches that may or may not be doing that. We're just trying to make sure there are no loose ends that are out there. We talked about this last year: I went the day before the draft, I can't even remember the year it was, I went and worked the player out. It's just another exposure that you can have. Maybe there's something that's dangling out there that you're uncertain of. You can go see the players up until the draft. You can go out there Thursday morning and work the guy out, if they're willing to do it.'
In past years, who have been some guys that have been last minute visits that have panned out well for this team?
'We spend a lot of time in the spring working on a number of players. It's a significant amount of players. The reason we do it is because we feel that it's time well spent. We're going to invest the time and we feel it's worthwhile. I wouldn't say there's one player in particular. We work out a lot of players and we're just trying to make sure that in the end we get it right and this way, we can make the right decision for our team.'
Has your role changed much this year compared to previous years, specifically with contracts?
'I think everybody understands what their job and what their role is organizationally. I would just say that over the past few years, my role really hasn't changed all that much. Whatever everybody is asked to do, everybody does their job and tries to do it to the best of their availability.'
Has the spread offense changed what you have to look for in defensive players?
'I think what you're finding in college is they're taking ' we've talked to a number of players that they're playing defensive line more than linebacker, that they were a defensive back or they played corner in high school and they were recruited as an athlete. The overall speed and athleticism, I'd say is taken on sort of a life of its own. If you look at a program like Alabama, they're big, strong, physical, tough. They run the football and they've been pretty successful the past few years. The players have been asked to do some different things. Even offensively, just going to back to that real quick ' sometimes you never see an offensive lineman literally put his hand down in a three-point stance. The only way you can figure out if a guy can actually do it is to go work the guy out and see if he can bend his knees, see if he can come out of a stance. Ninety percent of the guy's plays, the guy is in a two-point stance and he's trying to run block, down block in a two-point stance. Is that the most effective way to do it? It works both ways. Offensive players and defensive players but you've seen what teams have done. They've taken some players that have played other positions and kind of bulked them up a little bit and let them put their hand down, at least on the front seven and let them rush the passer, chase the ball or use their athleticism, use their speed.'

Scientists from the University of Bristol and Bristol Robotics Laboratory have developed a microbial fuel power stack (MFC) that utilizes urine to recharge cell phone batteries.
The team concocted a method in which bacteria grown on carbon fiber anodes were manipulated into breaking down urine in ceramic cylinders to produce small amounts of electrical charge, which were then stored on a capacitor.
"The beauty of this fuel source is that we are not relying on the erratic nature of the wind or sun; we are actually reusing waste to create energy," said one of the engineers involved in the project.
As exciting as it may sound, the current size of the cell is the size of a car battery, so it's practicality in current mobile phone usage has dwindled drastically. However, the researchers claim that they will work on downsizing the MFC to for modern applications.
"Our aim is to have something that can be carried around easily," the engineer said.
Currently, the MFC is capable of generating enough power to enable SMS messaging, web browsing and making brief phone calls.
If you have the urge to urinate at this moment, please remember that your bodily waste can be harnessed to recharge your phone.

DIY This Super Easy Memorial Day Mani
You need these adorbs patriotic nails.
As you're planning your cute Memorial Day outfit for the long weekend, don't forget about your nails! Since Memorial Day is a Monday, it's basically the perf day for a patriotic #ManicureMonday. This manicure is super easy to recreate in just four simple steps!
1. Prep your nails with a swipe of nail polish remover; it'll take off any natural oils to help keep your polish from chipping.
2. Apply a base coat followed by two coats of a matte white polish. We used OPI Nail Lacquer in Angel With A Leadfoot, which comes out in June, but you can use any white polish as long as it's opaque.
3. Dot on KB Shimmer Wave the Flag, spreading out the red, white, and blue glitter. This ah-mazing polish makes it so easy to get a fun, paint-splatter vibe, but you can also use a mix different glitters to create the same look!
4. Finish with a top coat and you're done!

The manual says to use only the specified transmission fluid. I am a fan of Mobil 1 transmission fluid. Would this cause problems or void the warranty?
Can it be mixed with the original fluid?
mreed2483 wrote:As long as the fluid you're using meets or exceeds the requirements of specified for your vehicle it will not affect your warranty.It can not be held against you so long as you follow the regularly scheduled maintenance plan and can provide proof that the maintenance was kept up. You can always call the dealership and ask either parts or a service tech about it or even call the number for your warranty if you have it and ask them. If it requires Mercon V and you use a lesser grade then it would affect you, but if you use Mercon V and it requires a lesser grade it will not affect you because Mercon V is backward compatible and supersedes regular Mercon standards. This is the same for any type of lubricant, coolant and what have you. Use the required or greater and you'll be fine.

Good article about Mercon LV.
Mercon LV and Mercon V are not interchangeable is correct and true statement. The dealership can not void your warranty because you did not use "Ford" Mercon LV unless they can prove the fluid you used directly caused the problem should a problem arise. Please refer to the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. As long as the fluid you use is equal to or better than the required fluid than you can use that fluid. By this I mean that if you use ATF made by Oil Maker ABC and said ATF is Mercon LV compatible or Mercon LV equivalent than you can use that fluid without fear of voiding warranty. The fluid you use must meet Mercon LV standards. For example: AmsOil makes Synthetic Fuel Efficient Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATL) which is " recommended for automatic transmissions and other applications requiring DEXRON® VI, MERCON® LV, SP or Toyota WS."
If you look at Mercon LV (Ford) specs: http://www.fcsdchemicalsandlubricants.c ... N%20LV.pdf
versus AmsOil ATL specs (at bottom of page): http://www.amsoil.com/storefront/atl.aspx
you will see that they are very similar. Again as long as it is the right TYPE of fluid it doesn't matter the brand. This is not exclusive to motor oil. If you use Mercon V or equivalent made by AmsOil, Valvoline, Mobile 1, etc. your warranty can and will be voided due to failure to use the appropriate fluid if your vehicle requires Mercon LV.

Blogging for a Better New Year is presented by the Betterment investment service and features resolutions for 2012 from a variety of finance blogs.
Blogging for a Better New Year is currently live and will run throughout the entire month of January.
Each day, a new article will be posted from a different financial blogger covering a variety of topics, including Maximizing Money's Top 5 Financial New Year's Resolutions for 2012.
Over 50% of Americans will be making a finance-related New Year's resolution for 2012, so this is a great opportunity to refocus your finances and learn about making money goals from top finance blogs.
Visit Blogging for a Better New Year throughout the month of January to read new content about creating a better financial future.
Top 5 Financial New Year's Resolutions for 2012 – From MaximizingMoney.com
It's that time of the year again to gather our hopes for a better financial future and make New Year's resolutions for 2012.
The biggest mistake is to create New Year's resolutions that we can't keep and won't accomplish, like hitting the Powerball or selling our big idea to Apple.
That's why it's a good idea to think of our resolutions as goals that we will work toward achieving throughout 2012.
Here are my picks for the Top 5 Financial Resolutions for 2012:
1. Make More Money Than You Spend – This one is obvious, but if you're planning to splurge on new snowmobiles for the winter and don't have the cash, think twice about financing your purchase at the local Yamaha dealership.
2. Cut Back On Things You Don't Use – Buying things out of habit can be a killer. If you subscribe to the full HD channel package from your cable company, but you plan on hitting the slopes most of the winter, consider it a trade-off and cancel the package.
3. Earn Some Extra Money – All of us want more cash in our pocket, but this year, get crackin' and do something about. Build a skill, start hustling, and make your effort pay off.
4. Build A Budget – Understanding where your money goes is as important as earning it. You don't have to be a penny pincher, but do some basic math and see where you're spending those hard-earned dollars.
5. Invest In Your Future – This is the year to start thinking about retirement. Even if you start small, find someplace you're comfortable investing your money, and begin putting away funds for your future.
Happy New Year and may your financial dreams all come true.

New Drift HD helmet cam
So, I'm privileged to work for Drift Innovation as a web designer and video editor, but my favorite part is R & D. You see, I own a myriad of cameras, and getting out there and using them in the field is the best part of my job. So all that being said: this new Drift HD camera is my new camera of choice. It's set to be available on the market at the end of August. Go Here for a Promo Code So you might want to plan to purchase one before winter.
Drift also has a new External Battery Pack for those all day timelapses. It also works to charge your cell phone or iPod.
Some of you hate the POV helmet cam videos, but take some of those shots and edit them to chase came style footage for a wicked mix that really tells a tale. For example here is a test I recently did with BMX'ers in order to prove how well this small helmet cam can works indoors (using night mode)
I have the camera on the end of a 5' monopod to get as close to the action as possible. So for $359 you can be shooting full 1080p HD either as a helmet cam or an in your face action camera.
You know what one of the many camera companies need to do is separate the lens from everything else.
I'm considering the Liquid Image goggle cam becuase they don't have the camera sticking out there to get damaged. As hideous as many say the goggles are, I'll take the trade off of functionality.
I might F up a regular helmet cam wiping out, or beat the crap out of it unexpectedly getting into an area where tree brances can smack it.
Same thing if I were still dirt biking.
Separate the camera; it's smaller and less protrusive. Have a length of wires that can be ran down to my inside pocket in my jacket where the battery and everything else can be.
Just a thought. And if you use it, I WANT A CAM FOR FREE!
I got this camera march this year. Generally pleased with it. Particularly like the remote. I'm not a videophile, very casual user. Also like the form factor. A few things I'd like to see.
1. Louder on off indicator
2. Lens cover. Ive smacked the lens many times now with tree branches.
Is it waterproof?
That's about right. Have to get the newer version to get needed functionality.
Seen any aftermarket lens cover ud recommend?
This guy sells lens protectors as well. My Tuff Stuff.com

Looks pretty damn sweet! I like the smaller size for sure.
can anyone with experience with different cameras tell me which is the best in terms of functionality, durability and pic quality? go pro, contour, drift/. any others? cheers guys
August 2011 comparison with all four cameras and their latest firmware updates. Shot in 1080p, the Drift HD is the clear winner in color, sharpness and field of view.

It's the start of a great new week and we want to hear all about your wonderful (eye-popping) and not-so-wonderful (aye-yi-yi) lessons and practices.
Aye Yi Yi:
Not skating this Sunday because after being bombarded by husbands cold for two weeks I've finally come down with it. HIs was a nasty one. Wait, I should say still is a nasty one. He's not over it yet. All the vege and fruit eating in the world wasn't going to shield me from this one. Another things is that the doc I went to see today at the walkin clinic thinks I have Exercise and allergy induced Asthma. So he gave me some puffers of which, I have to check the banned list to see if these are OK to take and I have to add it to the long medical list that Skate Canada wants for Adult Canadians. Sheesh, paper work just because you get sick.
Here's hoping I feel better for Tuesday's lesson.
Brig - Aye Yi Yi is right. I'm SO sorry to hear hubby's cold decided to make it a two-fer. Hope you get this out of the way quickly and then develop immunities that keep you safe for the ANs and beyond.
Eye-Aye Cap'n - I got in 31 minutes of "bonus" skating today because my new skates have made their debut! My gorgeous, creme de la creme, amazingly beautiful Super Teris with Phantom Special blades were delivered on Friday. I wasn't going to use up any of my precious pre-Adult Gold test time to break them in (I only have four weeks to pull my act together), but then I got the great idea to pop over to the public skate and give them a whirl. It's been a loooooong time since I had to break in skates, and I was surprised that it went as well as it did, especially since the blades are a different toepick configuration than I'm used to. And these are a half size SMALLER than what I'm used to.
Overall, I was pleased, though nothing feels better than taking the darn things OFF again! I'm following the strict break-in rules found on websites like Harlick's, so I've got to log at least 4 more hours in them before I start doing any jumps or spins. All I did at this point was to skate forward (mostly in the CW direction because I came for the second half of the session). I've vowed to take care of these (even bought a boot dryer) so they WON'T look like the poor woebegone pair I'm currently using.
deffinately eye-popping: yey first time back on ice in 2 months (well being coached neway) and my body was CRAVING it like no1s business. Got my skates sharpened so even gliding was a treat. My new coach (ive been working with her since the summer) is great and she really sees potential in me. My waltzes were really perfect today, really high and the footing was right. my scratch spins got a bit better.
slightly Aye Yi Yi- my edges arent deep at all... plus i was barely pointing today which my coach was going to have my head for. I fell on every single salchow i did. except for one. and i used to be sooo good at them too . oh well must work harder. my feet hurt pretty badly when i took them out of my skates, so much so that i felt like i was going to cry which is a big no no. i have a welt on my knee and my left foot is slightly swollen.
but like i say. i wear my bruises like a badge of hard work.
Sugarcoated - Welcome back to the ice. Two months is a long time, so it sounds like you did well, considering. I think those deep edges are all in the knees.
Eye-popping: Monday is usually my "easier" day on the ice, where I tend to work more on footwork and things. Today's practice was overall delightful, about 1 hour and 20 minutes, and mostly I was alone. I've re-discovered that if I smile while I do my Tigger footwork, it looks a lot peppier. And today one of the coaches shouted out, "HEY! Cool footwork, Cindy!" as I went bouncing past. She's known for her cool moves, so that was high praise indeed. My coach obviously knew what she was doing when she choreographed this little bit. I did my program twice through, but neither was up to where I'd like it to be three weeks out from testing. So you can bet that there will be a concentrated effort to raise my fitness level even more so I can "survive" the program. But I'm pleased with it, and once I can do it with more flair, it will be awesome.
Both my jumps and spins were on today. I even discovered what I've been doing wrong on the back sit--I'm placing my right foot on the changeover in front of the left, rather than a parallel move. The change made a huge difference. Now I just need to repeat it until it becomes a habit.
Ay Yi Yi Yi YI!!!!: Where did my GOOD back outside edge, the left one, go today? Gone, disappeared, on vacation!!!!
Eyes Wide Open: Worked on one foot spins in today's lesson, and I'm starting to really get it, but its a bit scary, I'm just not used to the feeling of it (see my other thread, please). I'll take what I did, though!!! Waltz and salchow were marvy, toe loop attempts scratchy, and then we ran out of time. I think we'll break out the harness one more time for toeloops.
Cinder: You are the footwork QUEEN!!! (Tappity, tappity, tap!)
Sugar: You did great for two months off the ice, that sal will be back in no time.
Singer: Take care of those lungs!! I have asthma too, so I know how you feel. HEAL!!! Doc's orders!!!!
Aye Yi Yi: My inside ankles hurt again. It's my fault. I didn't wear the bunga pads on Sunday. When I went to the rink on Monday it really hurt when I skated. I pad it and pad it and pad it to lessen the pain so I could have my private lesson. Coach is going to regional with her students today that why we moved the lesson to Monday. I hope they do well!!!!
Still working on 1-foot spin. It's getting better but there are still "rooms" for improvement, that's for sure. Coach noticed I started skidding before the 3-turn entrance and she said I never did that before. Found out I need to have my blade sharpened. Oh well. My skate Pro is travelling to Regional this week. Don't remember if she'll be back this weekend or not. Guess I'll have to skid for a while.
Eye popping: Not exactly what I'd call eye popping. But I learned "falling leaf"!!! It's fun. And the best part was I got it the first time I tried. Coach asked me to practice the falling leaf while she's gone and we'll start doing "split falling leave" when I get use to the regular falling leaf. Right now, my exercise is to do an inside spread eagle, continue to a RFI 3, falling leaf, end with an inside spread eagle. The goal is to have the falling leaf as a surprise element. It should come out of nowhere. Now, that's a challenge.
Also started to prepare for a split jump. Basically, I need to work on my half flip to get more height out of it. I'll work on it for a while to get the required height then we'll try a split jump. Very exciting indeed.
I'm not afraid of back cross stroke anymore. I'm happy about that.
Happy skating everyone.
Do you ever have one of those days where you just have so much fun out there that you never want to leave the ice? That's how today's lesson and practice were.
We started with two back scratch spins that were so centered and fast that my coach just kept saying WOW, WOW. Then we moved to some nice forward scratches and then sit spins. We added the back sit and then my nemesis, the camel/sit/back sit and I finally got it! My coach was literally hopping up and down and we were hugging, because I did three of them and I got 4 revolutions on each phase of the spin. Woo hoo! Then she taught me the beginnings of a layback, and I considered my puke-free trials as a good thing!
My single camels were a little dicey at first, but then they smoothed out as soon as she told me I was "popping up" in the knee too quickly. Out of the blue she had me do flying camels, and they were surprisingly on (still need to work on straightening the spinning knee).
Then we moved on to jumps. I didn't feel my axels were as good as Friday's, but she kept saying that they were HUGE, so I was all aglow. We worked through my program once and then in 3 different parts, and it was just a RUSH! I think she was surprised at my progress. I have my hubby and his videotaping to thank for that!
We had such a great lesson today, and after she left I skated another hour and they practically had to drag me off the ice. It was AWESOME!!!
Luenatic - Congrats on learning some cool new moves. Your spread eagle/falling leaf/eagle is going to be the envy of the rink!
Yaz - you're making great progress. Better to be able to spin fast and fear it a bit at first than not to get that speed up at all!
Just one question: What does a falling leaf look like anyway? I know what the split falling leaf looks like because of Michelle Kwan, but I've never seen the falling leaf minus split.
Well, after sleeping until 1 pm today, I finally called the pharmacy that filled my perscription. It turns out that there isn't sulfa in it. I also told them the missing thing I was allergic to that I couldn't remember the last time I was there; the sulfa.
It took me until about 4:30 pm or so to get up the courage to take the asthma meds. It sort of helped but I have a long way to go before I'm feeling well enough to skate.
Phoned my coach to tell her the news about the cold, infection and the asthma. My coach forbade to come to the rink to skate and to stay home and rest today. She said if I did come to the rink today, that she wouldn't coach me anymore. She knows I'm severely addicted to skating because I told her about having the ovarian cyst surgery and getting back on the ice a month and half later and then competing just a little over 5 months after surgery where most ladies who have the surgery, don't do anything but light walking for more than 6 to 8 months. She knows, I push myself beyond the beyond. She thinks I was crazy for competing so soon. A month later in April I pulled off a silver in my freeskate and a bronze in my interpretive FS. I've been gaining and gaining in my skills this past month stuggling to breathe. Now I just have to get over the cold and infection and get use to my asthma meds. The preventative makes me feel a bit dizzy but I noticed I could breathe a bit better through the nose and the salbutomol opened up my lungs a bit but with the infection, it might take until tomorrow before I don't have pain in my lungs. I'm hoping
I feel much better tomorrow so I can skate. It was hard to stay home and not skate.
I slept until 1pm today. Everytime I tried to wake up, I'd fall back
asleep. I guess, struggling to breathe really takes it out of you.
Can't wait until the cold and infection are gone.
Today was a lot of fun! I landed a toe-loop! Not just one but a lot of them and they weren't half bad! Yippy! So much fun!!!!
singerskates- make sure to get good and rested before you go skating. If you're sick your body needs rest, the ice will always be there
dlkksk8fan - CONGRATS on the toe loops! You sound like you're still bouncing along.
Singerskates - sure hope the meds kick in soon and that you're feeling well and back on the ice in no time.
A regular falling leaf is very similar to split falling leaf. The take off edge is the same: RBO entrance. It's a half revolution edge jump. The major difference between the two is the "split". Obviously, Michelle does the best split falling leaf with a perfect toe-pointed split. Regular falling leaf doesn't require the split position. So it's kind of like an upside down "Y" in the air.Originally posted by blurrysarah
Just one question: What does a falling leaf look like anyway? I know what the split falling leaf looks like because of Michelle Kwan, but I've never seen the falling leaf minus split.
First day back on the ice didn't happen. I had my skates in the van but never took them out. I thought I'd see how I could handle the cold just sitting outside of the rink watching for a few minutes. My lungs weren't ready so the skates stayed in the van and I saved on Ticket Ice costs. I had to go to the rink anyway because we have our coaching fee payments due every month on the 15. So I watched the ticket ice and then most of the 1st club session before leaving to go home. I'm thinking I'll be OK by Friday to skate. Just wasn't ready today. I do feel more alert
and not dizzy or spaced out like yesterday from my asthma medication though.
Well, will you guys share with me what you did on the ice today? What was eye popping and what was Aye Yi YI?
Aye Yi Yi - I had a so-so skate practice today. Just afterwards I was scheduled to participate in an on-line legal proceeding having to do with a former employee, so my mind was not on the ice. I was concerned that by "not paying attention" I might wind up doing something harmful. And yet I SO wanted to pick up where I'd left off yesterday.
So ... my spins started off crappy. Someone here once said something about the horror of "when camels attack," and my camel spin was definitely off. So was the back sit. I switched to sit and back scratch spins, which were o.k., and then moved to some jumps. But I was not real peppy and somewhat lethargic. I tried the Trigger footwork to "trick" myself that I was happier than I felt. It was only partically successful.
Eye-Opening: Well it wasn't eye-popping, but I then decided to do a program run-through, focusing on RELAXING into the program so I don't hyperventilate. I felt like all of the elements were a bit scratchy and forced, but I met my goal of not making myself crazy during the program. I think it looked better from the outside than it felt from the inside. I then did 5 minutes of endurance skating, which left me sweaty and happier for the day. Tomorrow's my skating day off, so I'm pinning my hopes on several great run-throughs on Friday's session.
(Note to Brig - sorry you weren't quite up to it yet, but good girl for listening to your body and holding off. You'll be back on ice soon.)

I'll never touch another sony notebook - I'm working with hundreds of laptops in an .edu environment and the sonys have a consistently higher failure rate, tons of preloaded junk, and they aren't physically well made for the abuse they need to endure.
IBM T series gets my vote everytime.

anyways, i cant imagine anyone buying that laptop just for the blu ray. i dont see the point of having this blu ray thing in the first place. with hard drives that cheap these days, i hardly burn anything. well, maybe its good for movies and etc. but i cant imagine how it gets better than DVD.
There goes your blu-ray support then.Originally Posted by kickarse
Laptops very nice. I'd buy it over a macbook... and just run Ubuntu
I wasn't specifically bashing Sony. I find that screen size/resolution fault for most notebook screens, and would have said the same thing if it had an HD-DVD drive (though as I indicated, I think it's more likely to win, again solely due to price). As for the first bit, it's personal preference entirely - I both hate Sony and DTR notebooks, but to each his own.Originally Posted by automagsrock
Hey look, this has become a "bash the PS3 and Sony" thread. I was wondering how long it'd take to become that.
I would buy this notebook as a notebook and a desktop replacement. I own more Sony things then I care to mention and have never had a single problem with any of them. (except for my first home theater reciever getting fried when our house was struck by lightning) The fact that this has a blu-ray player and it is (relatively) cheap for what all it has is enough of a selling point for most people. And like boswell said, until every single person in the world has a fiber connection to their home, blu-ray and HD-DVD discs are needed.
Umm, sorry to ramble. Nice notebook and a nicely written article. :D
interesting,i will let you know when my DVDs turnup from america B)Originally Posted by Carpet3
I was talking to a sony rep yesterday about this laptop and he was quite specific about the fact that the drive WON'T play Blu-ray films. Drives out nearer the end of the year will be able to play the films

The Indian Premier League returns tomorrow, April 8th.: Like cherry blossoms in Japan every spring, the arrival of IPL is eagerly awaited by many. The colours are more garish, the scene anything but peaceful. Administrators are averse to halting the cricketing treadmill and so, this year, the IPL starts just six days after the World T20. The players might want rest, but they cannot afford to ask for time off because millions are at stake. And so IPL 9 begins on Saturday in Mumbai.

Since 9/11, more than 10,000 U.S. children have lost a parent, sibling or other loved one who served in the U.S. Military. There are several organizations dedicated to start the healing process and to provide care and support to family members -- including children -- who have suffered the loss of a loved one serving in the armed forces.
The heartrending massacre of 20 6- and 7-year-old children and six educators in Newtown, Conn., has galvanized public attention once again after a mass shooting. But the killing of children by gun violence is not new. In 2013, as we prepare to celebrate Martin Luther King's birthday and the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington and the dream of our gun-slain prophet of nonviolence, let us truly hear and follow rather than just celebrate him. Now is the time to free ourselves from the plague of gun violence which has taken over 1.3 million American lives since Dr. King and Robert Kennedy's assassinations in 1968. This is twice the loss of life than all American battle casualties in all the major wars we have fought since our nation began.
