You can try spraying them with Bitter Apple. It works for some dogs, but not all. You can also work on the command "Leave It". Every time he/she starts to chew on them, tell him to Leave it. If he stops, give him a treat. It's something you have to be very persistent with for it to work. I taught Koby not to chew his plush toys that way. Now he just licks them.

Koby answered it very well.
Try the bitter apple spray or even sprinkling a little cayenne pepper on it. Start "Leave it" command with something other than clothes... Try starting with one of his favorite toys. Make him sit, show his toy to him and say "leave it". If he goes for it, tell him "no" and take it away. If he leaves it alone, tell him good boy and give him a treat... Remember, don't let him get away with "half-way", when you say "good boy" he should NOT jump up and grab the toy, he should leave it alone until you say "ok"
Once the toy is mastered, move onto the clothes. Try getting him to be a pro and drop a treat by him, telling him "leave it".
If you can master "leave it", it could keep him out of trouble...beyond chewing his clothes. What if you're on a walk and pass by some delicious garbage...
Sorry for rambling ;) I hope Remi can learn to live in his clothes, not eat them!

Prandelli: Balotelli will go to Euro 2012
The controversial Mario Balotelli will be an integral part of Italy's Euro 2012 in Poland and Ukraine, according to coach Cesare Prandelli.
• Prandelli fires warning to Mario
Balotelli's participation in the tournament had been called into question following a number of indiscretions - the latest a three-match ban for being sent off against Arsenal.
Prandelli had said previously that the 21-year-old's disciplinary problems could stop him being called up, but now the Italy coach insists he cannot do without the temperamental star.
"I liked the fact he took responsibility and what he said after the recent event with City," Prandelli told an Italian news channel. "I like people who face up to things. I never thought of leaving him out, he's a fixed part of the national team."
Prandelli also claimed he wants AC Milan's Antonio Cassano, who still needs to prove his fitness following his recent return to action after heart surgery, to be in the squad.
"We can get him back," said Prandelli. "His enthusiasm is contagious and I need him."

RSVP's for this event are requested; use the following link:
Thursday, October 11, 2012 - 12:15pm - 1:15pm
Diane Lim Rogers, Chief Economist for the Concord Coalition, will discuss with Michael Gousha and attendees:
Is the U.S. about to plunge off a fiscal cliff? What are the causes and consequences of our nation's enormous deficit and debt problems, and what will it take to fix them? Are there key questions we should be asking our presidential candidates?
RSVP's for this event are requested; use the following link:
The Concord Coalition believes that only with an engaged, informed and demanding public can the nation's fiscal challenges be met. The Concord Coalition's mission is to cut through the usual partisan rhetoric and stimulate a more realistic public dialogue on what we want our nation's future to look like, along with the required trade-offs. We believe that elected leaders in Washington know there is a problem, but they are unlikely to act unless forced to by their constituents.

About Us
- Our vision is to see God moving in power and revival in our church, in Earlswood and throughout our nation.
- We trust that we are Bible based and open to the working and gifts of the Holy Spirit.
- We hope to support all who worship here, both spiritually and practically.
- We believe that we have been placed at the heart of Earlswood to bless and support the local community. We also support a number of friends serving Jesus overseas.
- We try to maintain close working and worshipping links with other local churches of all denominations.
Our History
In 1909 Redhill Baptist Church planted a mission hall for children's work in Earlswood. This hall became more and more self contained over the years and in 1987 we became a church in our own right - an amicable move as we retain our friendship with Redhill Baptist - and we became a member of the Baptist Union.
The present church building was literally built around the smaller, original, corrugated iron hall in 1978. The church interior was renovated in 2008. The church hall dates from 1997. Both buildings were sacrificial steps of faith for the church.
Our Links
We are members of the Baptist Union of Great Britain, the South East Baptist Association (SEBA), The Evangelical Alliance and BMS World Mission.
|We also have close ties with local churches

The officer who shot and wounded a man who police say rushed the officer with a metal stake in Kalihi Valley earlier this month barely had enough time to get out of his car and draw his weapon, Deputy Prosecutor Keith Seto said in state court today.
An Oahu grand jury returned an indictment Thursday charging the man who was shot, 35-year-old Ralph Riveira Jr., with attempted assault and attempted assault of a law enforcement officer.
Seto said the officer was responding to a call of an argument in front of Riveira's mother's home. He said Riveira confronted the officer, threatened to stab him and then rushed at him from 15 feet away. The officer fired when Riveira was six feet away from him, Seto said.

Bottom line: Some of my critics are demanding that I prove that a car is as good or as bad as I say. They want comparative performance scores from the racetrack — as if scores reached one day will stand up in the same test of the same car the next, as if physical items are free from physical decline. That's silly. Drive the A6 3.0T. See for yourselves. You'll see that I'm right on this one, too.
Ride, acceleration and handling: The new A6 3.0T is noticeably better than its predecessor in all three, and its predecessor was no slouch. The new model gets "excellent" marks in all three — exemplified by a stronger launch from "stop," a torque width that maintains admirable tumescence at high speeds, and super-crisp handling.
Head-turning quotient: With dramatically sweeping LED headlamps, muscular side panels and an attractive rear, it is one of the most fetching Audi models ever.
Body/layout: The 2012 Audi A6 3.0T is an all-wheel-drive ("Quattro" in Audi nomenclature) luxury midsize sedan with a body made mostly of aluminum. A6 refers to Audi size and marketing category. The 3.0 designation refers to engine displacement size (the amount of fuel and air that the combustion chambers can handle, three liters). The "T" is the designation for turbocharging (a method of pulling more air into the engine while minimizing fuel consumption).
Engine/transmission: The car comes with turbocharged, gasoline-direct-injection, 24-valve 3-liter V-6 with variable valve lift and timing (325 foot-pounds of torque, 325 horsepower). The engine is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission that also can be operated manually.
Capacities: It has seating for five people. With the rear seats folded up, cargo space is a rather unremarkable 14.1 cubic feet. That space expands considerably with the rear seats folded down. Fuel-tank capacity is 19.8 gallons. Warning: Use premium grade only to avoid earlier-than-needed engine repairs.
Mileage: You get 19 miles per gallon in the city and 28 on the highway — and remember that you're paying for expensive premium fuels. But the A6 models are not designed primarily for fuel economy.
Safety: Standard equipment includes ventilated front and rear disc brakes, emergency braking assistance, all-wheel anti-lock brake protection, electronic brake-force distribution, electronic stability and traction control, side and head air bags, and passenger whiplash-protection system.
Price: The base price for the 2012 Audi A6 3.0T is $49,900. Dealer's invoice price is $46,408. Price as tested is $64,870. Including $14,105 in options (highlights: onboard navigation, Google mapping, real-time traffic monitoring, Audi Connect emergency communications system with three-month free subscription, Bang & Olufsen advanced sound system) and an $875 destination charge. Dealer's price as tested is $60, 394. You can knock about $2,200 off the purchase price. Hint: Bargain on the cost of options.

What is it like for you to come back to Chapel Hill for this event?
"It is always fun to come back. I loved my time here and any opportunity or chance, I will be here. It is fun to see the guys and to see the buildings and the stadium is incredible that they have now and the changes in the football stadium is impressive."
Can you discuss your decision to re-sign with the Red Sox and compete for a spot in the starting rotation this season?
"To be honest with you it was not a tough decision. Once that option was on the table I was going to take it. I enjoyed my time there last year and would love to make it a long term kind of thing. The opportunity was there and I am happy to have it. My goal is to go down there and pitch well and earn a spot and help the team win."
What advice did you have for Daniel Bard in his transition from relieving to starting?
"Honestly he did not ask me and I did not expect him to. Daniel has started before and Daniel started here at Carolina. I think he will come up with his routine and if he asks me questions I would love to help him out and be there for him but he knows what he is doing. All in all you have to get the hitter out at the plate and he is pretty good at that."
What is it like from your perspective seeing the current players at this event looking up to you all as Major League players?
"I don't think they look up to us. I think that is fun coming in here seeing big Carolina fans and getting to talk with them and hearing their memories and sharing my memories and seeing the footage from the College World Series on the TV's. Some great memories and I love this place."
Chris Iannetta
What is it like coming back to Chapel Hill and seeing the new Boshamer Stadium?
"Coming back to Chapel Hill has been a great experience. It has been a while since I have been back so a lot of things have changed. The new Bosh and a lot of new buildings on campus and the Blue Zone. Everything I experienced when I was here as a student and a baseball player was incredible and very fond memories. Now to come back and see everything how it is a few years later and how things have changed for the better 20-fold - it is awesome."
How was the experience of finding out that you were traded from the Rockies to the Angels?
"This offseason getting traded - when it first happened I was a little unsure just because it was the first time that it happened. The Rockies were all that I knew and I had a lot of good friends there and made a lot of good relationships there. But I got traded to a team that is a perennial winning program playing for a manager who was a catcher in Mike Scioscia, who has the reputation that he has. And the opportunity in front of me to play as much as they want me to and to hit in a spot in the lineup that is not behind the pitcher - I am excited."
Can you discuss the Angels other off season moves?
"When I got traded I knew that I was going to a good team. Then they bring in one of the best hitters if not the best hitter in the game in Albert Pujols as well as a Gold Glove first baseman, then they bring in C.J. Wilson, who is one of the top free agent pitchers on the market, to complement to a staff comprised with Jered Weaver, Dan Haren, Ervin Santana. It was all a dream and extremely positive."
How about seeing some of the pitchers you caught your final season in Chapel Hill being here?
"It is great. My junior year I had Daniel Bard and Andrew Miller on the staff as freshmen. You could see how talented they were. They were immediate impacts on the program and you knew that in a few years they would be some of the top pitchers in the country. Then seeing what they have done since then has been great. Obviously I got a chance to catch Alex White in the big leagues for a couple of months last season, that was great as well."
Daniel Bard
What's been your take in coming back to Chapel Hill for the sold out First Pitch Banquet in the Blue Zone of Kenan Stadium?
"It has been great so far. First class. They have treated us a great as we can imagine - just taking care of all of the details on us getting here fine and putting us up in a hotel. It has been great. Just seeing how much this event has grown since when I was here. I think there was maybe a hundred people that showed up and very few former players at that time. Now you have upwards of 500 people and 30 or 40 former players. It is awesome. Guys want to stay involved in the program."
What was it like getting a chance to pitch with your former college teammate in Boston last season with the Red Sox?
"It has been great having Andrew [there]. Last year before they signed him one of the assistant GM's called me and asked what I had on this guy and I told them everything I knew about him. How dominant he was in college and how he had enormous potential just waiting and ready to come out. They said, 'Well that is exactly what we thought.' Three hours later they announced that they signed him. So I was pumped as he is a friend of mine and we go way back. It was fun and our wives have become good friends and everything. So it is good to have someone who has taken the same path as you."
What has your offseason been like with the opportunity to compete for a starting position in the rotation this season for the Red Sox?
"I am excited about it. It is something I brought up to the team and they kind of liked the idea of it and we ran with it. My preparation has not changed a whole lot, just more mentally just getting the thought processes going with starting. I think it is a great opportunity for me and I am confident that it is going to work out or I would not be doing it. It was my idea and I told them we would make it work."
Have you been working on featuring any more pitches in preparing to start?
"I already throw four pitches as it is -- four seam, two seam, breaking ball and a change up. I think if I can locate those four and move them around in the zone that is going to be enough for me. I think I will use the change up a little more going through the lineup two and three times a game. It will be fun. I am excited to get a chance to play with it."
How's the manager transition been from Terry Francona to now getting to know Bobby Valentine?
"Well Tito is very respected and a great player manager from everything I experienced as far as I got to know him. I don't know Bobby well but I have talked with him twice on the phone. He seems like an easy guy to get along with and seems like he has great energy in everything he does. I am sure that will translate to the Red Sox. I am excited to get to know him and it will be a new page for the Red Sox but Tito will be missed as well. It is a new regime for the Red Sox."

This quilt is so special. These kind of quilts are my absolute favorites! I have a quilt that was left in my great-grandma;s basement as a top and my mom tied it off and gave it to me for my birthday, oh, ten years after great-gma died. We were all crying. It's my most treasured quilt, because it could never be replaced.
I agree with amma about making a label- future generations will be grateful for that.
And absolutely tied quilts count! I do it sometimes if I am in a hurry. I notice that they don't last as long, though- most of mine that are tied I am now slowly just adding hand quilting around the ties and then cutting the ties off. But we use our quilts really hard- I have a 3 and a 5 yr old- both boys. So the quilts around here get a little beat up, what with forts and picnics and the like.:-)

"I almost won an MVP with Smush Parker and Kwame Brown on my team," Bryant said before Wednesday's 93-75 exhibition loss to Portland. "I was shooting 45 times a game. What was I supposed to do? Pass it to Chris Mihm or Kwame Brown?"
Bryant was referring to 2005-06 when the Lakers' roster included Brian Cook, Stanislav Medvedenko, Devean George and Parker, Mihm and Brown.
Bryant continued, taking aim at his favorite whipping boy, Parker, calling him "the worst. He shouldn't have been in the NBA but we were too cheap to pay for a point guard. So we let him walk on."

Juan Mata arrived at Old Trafford by helicopter to seal his move to the Premier League champions .
Man United manager David Moyes met the Spaniard off the chopper as he looked to finalise the details of the £37million deal.
With only formalities standing in the way of completion, Mata is fully expected to be registered by Monday lunchtime and therefore eligible for Tuesday's game with Cardiff City.
It means that the Spain midfielder will make his debut at Old Trafford in front of a likely sell-out crowd, with David Moyes suggesting his business isn't done yet.
The Red Devils made a £22.5million bid for Southampton left-back Luke Shaw , and David Moyes was pictured with the agent of long-term target Marco Reus last night.
United coach Phil Neville tweeted his welcome for Mata:

Police chief "mortified" by Blackberry bang up.
FEDERAL WAY, Wash. (AP) — The police chief of the south Seattle suburb of Federal Way has issued a public apology for a minor traffic accident that happened while he was checking his BlackBerry in his unmarked police car.
The city summed it up Thursday in a news release that began "Federal Way Police Chief Brian Wilson is mortified." Apparently Wilson stopped for a red light on March 18 and glanced down at his BlackBerry to view newspaper headlines and e-mails. He then took his foot off the brake and collided with the car in front of him.
The Seattle Times reports no one was injured and the cars weren't damaged.
Still, City Manager Neal Beets gave Wilson a verbal reprimand.
The police chief says he takes full responsibility.
How's that for an "oops!"
The law can't stop the BlackBerry addiction! I mean come on…he's a police chief… 😆

I carry Federal HST 230 (not +P) in my 4" 1911. tests show good expansion through denim. It can be a two year wait to get some, though.
Your expansion issue was more likely due to clogging due to the denim than velocity loss. Loads like Hornady Critical Defense and Corbon Power Ball avoid clogging issues as they fill the cavity with plastic to avoid clogging and initiate expansion. In a traditional JHP, the Speer Gold Dot does a good job resisting clogging as well.
Expansion is a crap shoot in the real world, as you won't be shooting jello or water jugs. Damaging the tip on a bone can deform the bullet and you just have a hunk of lead doing nothing particularly amazing. Relax. You're throwing a pretty big hunk of lead to begin with. If it expands, that's nice. If it doesn't, it will work anyway. Keep shooting until the threat is gone.

High-income congressional districts at opposite political poles
Wisconsin's top two congressional districts by income and education are the 5th (home to Milwaukee's western suburbs and exurbs) and the 2nd (home to the capital city of Madison).
But these two upscale districts couldn't be further apart politically.
New data released by the U.S. Census Bureau recently demonstrate how congressional districts that closely resemble each other demographically can behave like polar opposites politically.
The 5th, represented in Congress by Republican Jim Sensenbrenner, voted overwhelmingly for Mitt Romney last fall.
The 2nd, represented by freshman Democrat Mark Pocan, voted overwhelmingly for Barack Obama.
The Census Bureau published key demographic statistics on the nation's 435 congressional districts, recently redrawn for the 2012 elections.
What do they tell us about Wisconsin's eight House seats?
Measured by median household income, the 5th ($61,272) and the 2nd ($56,089) rank at the top in Wisconsin.
The same two districts also lead in education levels: The 2nd has the highest share of adults with four-year or postgraduate degrees (38%), followed by the 5th (33%).
The 5th and the 2nd Congressional districts have something else in common: They routinely lead the state and sometimes the nation in turnout, a reflection of their higher-than-average income and education, their partisanship and activism, and Wisconsin's historically high levels of political participation.
In the 5th, 77% of voting-age adults turned out Nov. 6 (using 2010 population figures, the most recent available by congressional district). In the 2nd, 76% turned out. The voters in these districts are striking examples of how high levels of education, activism and partisanship often go together.
But all these similarities mask a political chasm between the two districts. The 5th includes some of the most Republican suburbs in the northern United States. Romney carried it by 24 percentage points despite losing statewide by 7.
And the 2nd includes some of the most Democratic white precincts in America, a product of the area's historically progressive political culture, and two related factors: large numbers of state government workers, and large numbers of university students and employees. Obama carried it by 38 points.
Some other highlights from the data:
- Wisconsin's 4th Congressional District, represented by Milwaukee Democrat Gwen Moore, remains the only one of the state's eight House seats that isn't overwhelmingly white. More than two-thirds of Wisconsin's African-American population lives in the 4th. The district is 34% African-American. In this case, demographics do explain a lot about partisanship: The size of Obama's victory margin in the district (52 points) is in large part due to its sizable African-American community, with African-Americans voting overwhelmingly Democratic in recent decades. (Obama got 99% of the vote in some city of Milwaukee wards).
- Moore's district also has the highest share of Hispanics (16%), though the state's Hispanic population is a bit more evenly distributed across congressional districts. Republican Paul Ryan's 1st District is 9% Hispanic, with none of the other districts more than 6% Hispanic.
- Finally, the data show that the three Democratic House districts (the 2nd, 3rd and 4th) are by at least one measure the three youngest by population. They have the highest share of adults younger than 35, led by the 4th, with 54% of the population 34 years old or younger. Obama won voters younger than 30 last fall by 23 points in Wisconsin, according to exit polls. He won voters between ages 30 and 64 by 3 points. And he lost voters 65 and older by 4 points.
Northern Wisconsin's 7th District, represented by Republican Sean Duffy, has the lowest share of people younger than 35 (41%) among the eight districts, and the highest share of people 65 and older (17%).

Date of Stay: April, 2007
Under new management that appears nice enough at first - fellow has a rather hot and quick temper - many, many trees which is nice until storm season, but shade is good - can get LP, ponds have dried up in summer heat, but all in all not a bad park. Close to shopping. They want Class A coach owners to put white siding around coach and set up permanent sewer attachment...Silly to do that if you roll! Pet policy changed to only 2 pets, I have two tiny dogs and a small cat (all inside pets) will not get rid of one, period. They don't push the point yet. Yet, no one seems to worry about all the feral cats roaming about. Are all parks like this? Owned by others, managed by irritable people? Amazing journey for a full-timer.
Date of Stay: May, 2006
Privately owned, close to nature, far from town, no amenities like LP(that stopped in 06 and trucks not allowed in except for park models)...they okay pets, but keep changing minds about how many (only two allowed maybe, maybe not depends on owner's mood)...they keep waffling about everything, sheds, hookups, lots, you name it...electric on, off, in summer mostly off...no concrete pads to speak of so it floods a lot, mega-flooding. No wifi, store at front has 2-year-old cans of soup...just not my idea of customer care. Prices up, amenities down. Sad.

Orientation Service Projects
One of the highlights of Orientation Week is the opportunity for students to spend a morning or afternoon giving back to the DC community by participating in a 1L Orientation Service Project. For many 1Ls, this event also serves as a way to meet classmates, staff and faculty, explore Washington DC, and learn about the wealth of service and pro bono opportunities available at Georgetown Law. Below are some of the 1L Orientation Community Service Projects that have taken place over the past few years.
D.C. Central Kitchen
The D.C. Central Kitchen collects food donated by area restaurants, caterers, hotels, cafeterias and other food service businesses that would otherwise go to waste. The donated food is used to prepare over 3,000 meals a day for adults and children at 130 agencies throughout the Washington D.C. Metropolitan area, including homeless shelters, community and youth centers, children's after-school programs and senior-citizen lunch programs. In addition, D.C. Central Kitchen provides training to unemployed individuals in basic culinary skills. Student volunteers assist with food preparation alongside community members involved in the job training program.
Food & Friends
Food & Friends prepares, packages, and delivers nutritious meals to support men, women and children living with HIV/AIDS, cancer, and other life-challenging illnesses throughout the D.C. area. Volunteers assist with food preparation.
Capital Area Food Bank
The Capital Area Food Bank (CAFB) is the largest public, non-profit food distribution center in the D.C. area. Through a network of more than 750 member programs, CAFB distributes several million pounds of food each year. Volunteers assist with sorting and packing food for distribution.
Thurgood Marshall Academy
The Thurgood Marshall Academy Public Charter High School (TMA) was founded by Georgetown Law students and Professor Rick Roe in 2001 to provide a college preparatory high school curriculum to students living in the Congress Heights section of Southeast D.C. TMA has been profiled in the Wall Street Journal. Volunteers provide assistance to teachers by helping them set up their classrooms for the new school year.
Bread for the City
Bread for the City is a private non-profit and multi-service community-based organization that provides vulnerable residents of Washington, D.C. with comprehensive suite of services including food, clothing, medical care, legal and social services. Each month, Bread for the City's food pantry provides 4,000 households with a three-day supply of nutritious groceries including fresh fruit, meat and vegetables. Volunteers sort clothing and provide assistance in the medical clinic.
D.C. Habitat for Humanity
D.C. Habitat for Humanity seeks to eliminate poverty and homelessness in Washington D.C. by building simple, decent, and affordable homes for people in need using donated funds, supplies and volunteer labor. Habitat is driven by the philosophy that those in need deserve a hand-up, not a hand-out; thus homeowners must work 300 hours of "sweat equity" on their own home before they can purchase it. When the house is completed it is sold by Habitat to the new homeowners with an interest-free 25-year mortgage. Volunteers assist with construction tasks such as framing, roofing, painting, installing siding, and landscaping.
Emmaus Services for the Aging
Emmaus Services for the Aging builds bridges between isolated seniors and the world around them by helping to maintain their independence in their own homes. Roughly 500 seniors receive services throughout the year, most of who are disabled, home-bound or simply have difficulty meeting their basic needs. Emmaus strives to provide service with dignity and a human touch, assisting seniors with shopping trips, writing checks, bill paying, house cleaning, delivering groceries and paying regular visits. Volunteers teach computer skills to seniors at the Emmaus Service Center and visit home-bound seniors to provide companionship and assistance with daily chores and housekeeping.
National Arboretum
The National Arboretum is a 344-acre park that was established in 1927 Congress. Its mission is to enhance the environment and to serve the public need for scientific research, education, and gardens that conserve and showcase native plants. Unfortunately, non-native plant species are invading the Arboretum grounds which, if left unchecked, would choke out many of the plants the Arboretum is trying to conserve. Volunteers assist in the removal of non-native plants and shrubs while enjoying a brief respite from the noise and crowds of the city.

reminds of the Red uniform the Giants rocked for a while ... (shivers)
Hate to say it but i like the Redskins colors. 49'ers would be a close second.
Oh yeah I like those black alternate Arizona jerseys too. I think they should wear a different color helmet when they wear em though.
lol, i did that without meaning to, but they (the Browns) do have a nice classic look and I do like their colors.
Saints....black and gold...:)
I like the Broncos current uniforms. Particularly the orange jersey with the white pants, and the white on white. Hate the blue on blue.
They have the worst throwback unis known to man though.
you didn't like the doo-doo and pee colors ?

Loftex Launches New Line, Fresh Logo
March 31, 2012,
The Crafted Texture bath collection includes textured solid fashion coordinates in Loftex's new beet root colorway.
"The new logo is a testament to the strength, quality and innovation that goes into all Loftex products," said James Booth, vp of marketing and brand development.
The "x" in the brand name has a slight twist to it, representing the manufacturer's weaving techniques. The visual symbol accompanying the logo is a single loop - a nod to terry towel loops.
"All together, these elements combine to offer a subtle homage to the hard work and attention to detail that defines what Loftex is," Booth said.
In terms of product, the key bath introduction is Crafted Texture, which marries artisanal contours with a fashion-forward color palette.
The line includes 10 styles and 10 solid colors. The lead towel is an allover texture in a piece-dye with a veloured cuff. It merchandises back to a group of textures that range from a three-color jacquard to double-faced jacquards as well as double-faced dobby weaves.
Colorways evoke autumn and include oak, chestnuts, whitecap and granite accented with indigo, beet root, gingko and seaport.

Hey, guys. This post deals with the misuse of an otherwise valid informal argument, which borrows it's logical structure from formal reasoning, a first-order Enthymeme, the abuse of this being known as the Unstated Major Premise or suppressed major premise.
This is an argument in which a major assumption, evidence, premise, or reason used to justify the conclusion is absent from the argument's wording, and as long as both parties in an argument share the same semantic assumptions for the terms used in the argument, all is fine.
The problem begins when the two parties do not share the same assumptions going into their language, and at least one of them fails to clarify to the other what those assumptions are, whether willfully or not.
When this is used to arbitrarily misdefine a word, most often out of ignorance or confusion over its accepted meaning, it is known as a Humpty-Dumpty argument.
It's commonly done in debates with pseudoscientists, who either don't know what they are talking about and are unaware of it, or with more savvy ones who use this as a rhetorical tactic to confuse their opponent unless their opponent calls them on it. This is often used in conjunction with a multiple untruth.
A brief list of words commonly mangled, folded, spindled and semantically mutilated by proponents of a variety of pseudosciences is as follows. There are of course many more:
- science
- religion
- evidence
- skeptic
- denier
- (true) believer
- (ad hoc) hypothesis
- logic
- reason
- theory
- model
- law
- reality
- objective
- closed-minded
- open minded
- fantasy
- revisionist
- straw man
- ad hominem
- scientism
- material
- atheist
- empirical
- peer-reviewed
- logical
- scientific
- energy
- vibration
- resonate
- frequency
- harmonic
- spiritual
- mind
- soul
- consciousness
- physical
- scientific method
- evolution
- scientist
- therapy
- natural
- organic
- dimension
- transitional form/fossil/species
A good example of this are evolution/creationism debates during which the claim is made that 'there are no transitional species,' when the creationist is using a different assumption from his opponent as to what it means, often a sort of half-formed monstrosity 'stuck' between two other species in the fossil record, the oh-so 19th century notion of 'one species crossing over into another' fallacy, or the 'dogs giving birth to kittens' nonsense.
Crocoducks, anyone?
The major point here is that the creationist's idea of what a transitional species is, an important bit of information in the argument, has been either overlooked or intentionally concealed from his opponent, the latter being the case with the more educated but willfully deceptive creationists, who often do this to keep from having to ever admit that they are mistaken, which just will not do if you're a crusader for absolute truth.
You might ask why I'm been picking on the poor creationists here and there in this series of posts, and the primary reason is the fact that like I mentioned in a couple of other entries, creationists are fun because they are just such a wonderful source of logical fallacies, since they use all of them, and are continuously creating new ones often enough to make my head spin — Linda Blair style.
This endless creation (not the sort they're trying to promote) of new ways for logic to go astray is just too useful for me to ignore, and yet another reason for to be more alert for these errors in one's own reasoning as well, so as to better introspect and avoid them in one's thinking and arguments.
Rigorous self-examination is skeptical.

- - Worst fighter performances you have ever seen? (http://www.mmaforum.com/general-mma-discussion/34955-worst-fighter-performances-you-have-ever-seen.html)
Worst fighter performances you have ever seen?
After watching Kalib Starnes in action at UFC 83 I was inspired to do this thread!
Other then Kalib Starnes performance yesterday I want you to name other fighters that put on some of the crappiest fighting performances you have ever seen.
I have one fight in mind. The problem is I forgot the names of the fighters and which Pride event it took place. Maybe if I described it you guys you will no what which fighter I am talking about.
This was a Pride show. Two of the fighters were Japanese (I think) One of the fighters was bald and threw out this entire fight he kept jumping up and down around the ring like an idiot. It was a bad attempt to look flashy and exciting. Stephan Quadros and Bas Rutten even thought this guy looked ridicious. While he was jumping up the other fighter accidently nailed him hard in the balls with a kick. The other fighter took five minutes to recover and said he was fine and countiued. He started doing the jumping thing again but stopped grabbed his balls a verbally submitted.
Worst performance ever by a fighter? Again if you know who this was please tell me. Also, Put down what you think was the worst performance ever!
i think i know what fight you are talking about,
i dont think it was two japanese fighters,
one was a wrestler from the middle east.
he became very frustrated and ended up giving up after getting hit in the groin.
it was on the same card that rampage stole a decision from ninja.
Kiyoshi Tamura vs. Aliev Makhmud
I think that was it. Thanks enochian!:thumb02: Aliev performance was horrid! He acted like he had no skill what so ever.
Kazuyuki Fujita vs. Eldari Kurtanidze - Pride Shockwave 2006 - Eldari was an Olympic wrestler I think but was completely unprepared. Absolutely zero striking skill. He stood in the 1900s Boxing stance :laugh: and just completely wilted once he got hit.
Roger Huerta vs. John Halverson - UFC 67 - Halverson goes down from a completely legal knee to the body then pretends like it was a knee to the head, just lays down, and tries to steal a DQ win while El Matador pounds him out. F'n shameful.
Sean O'haire vs Butterbean. Sean looked like he has never before trained the standup. I seriously think that I can beat him in the standup.
And there was similar style performance from a guy from Georgia basically a neighbor of Aliev, Eldari Kurtanidzehttp://www.pridefc.com/pride2005/ind...ghters&fID=382
Also would like to add Herb Dean to the list, his fight with Dave Legeno was pretty ****ed up - looked like he didnt know how to strike at all, and the eye injury was more than questionable
Koji Oishi's performance against Nick Diaz comes to mind. He had to be on Valium.
Kevin Jordan against Gabe Gonzaga. :thumbsdown:
This was the worst of the worst for me.
Who was that one japanese guy in the UFC who insisted on fighting with his hands at his waist. They were like flexed forward too and he was trying to punch from the waist. It was the saddest thing I've ever seen. Needless to say he got KO'd.

The word is out that Google plans to penalize websites that are over-optimized. Website owners and those who sell search engine optimization services are abuzz with speculation as to what's actually going to happen.
As usual, Google is vague in explaining what's coming. In fact, Google is usually vague about what it's done even after it happens.
Will your site be affected by the changes?
Probably not, unless you've engaged in spammy tactics to push the site up in the rankings. Doing things like buying links on link-building sites is likely to hurt you. So is paying a search engine optimization firm to spray your links across hundreds of fake blogs, social media accounts, and directories. These tactics have worked for a while and, if all goes as planned, these sites will likely drop in rank when the change kicks in.
It's pretty easy to spot the sites likely to get shot down. You do a search on a keyword phrase and a site comes up near the top of the rankings. You click on the site, and the content stinks. Realistically, a useless site only makes it to the top of the rankings because it's been working the system. It isn't ranking well because it's helpful to the searcher. That's what Google is attempting to correct.
Should you change course? Should you take corrective action?
You should be fine if you've built a site based on excellent content and the links back to your site are natural and from sites that logically ought to link to your site. If, however, you've been doing sneaky black-hat link building by paying a service to help you, then you should expect to get slapped—soon. Is there a way to fix it now, before the algorithm change is implemented? No one knows, and Google isn't telling. Sorry.

Fremont County woman accused of animal cruelty and neglect
Two horses now under care of Colorado Humane Society
FREMONT COUNTY, Colo. - The Fremont County Sheriff's Office has issued a court summons to a woman on two misdemeanor counts of cruelty to animals.
Angelyn Daniels, 20, received the summons after two horses were found and inspected by a veterinarian Tuesday in the 1500 block of M Street in Penrose.
The Sheriff's Office received a report expressing concern about the horses and found them dehydrated, malnourished and hurt from unsafe living conditions.
"I think the cost of hay and the fact that they probably couldn't afford to feed them, came into play," said Capt. Don Pinover. "In a lot of the cases we go out on, it's a matter of education. The animal owner doesn't know how to properly take care of it, or know how much feed and water it requires."
Pinover said the Sheriff's Office receives several reports of suspected horse abuse every week.
"Sometimes, the owners won't be cited if they agree to give up their horses to the Humane Society," he said. "In this case, we felt the condition of the horses made a summons appropriate."

|st: version and other questions about -estout-
|Wed, 21 Sep 2005 14:11:50 -0400
Dear listers, I started using the -estout- program on my work desktop but now I have problems when I try to install/run it on my personal laptop. My laptop is not connected to the internet so I have to copy the files manually, which I think may be why it's not working. First, does it work with a Stata version less than 8.2? I have 8.0 on my laptop. I installed the program on my laptop (by copying the files over) and I went ahead and assumed that it works with 8.0 so I changed the version line in the estout.ado from 8.2 to 8.0. Now it gives me an error message "tab defaults not available (file estout_tab.def not found)". So I copied the estout_tab.def(and the other 3 .def files) from my desktop to my laptop. But it keeps giving the same error message "file estout_tab.def not found" although the file is there (i.e. in the C\Stata8\ folder). What I am doing wrong? Thanks so much for your help, Radu Ban * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/res/findit.html * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/

Unique formula Solo rosin provides powerful sound projection, yet it does not compromise on the sensitivity for the soloist. It is also very forgiving without sound cracks on the strings under a high amount of bow pressure. You will not be overpowered in the orchestra.

Vince Cable has been accused of presiding over a "totally inadequate" inquiry into zero-hours contracts, in contrast to the business secretary's in-depth investigations of red tape on behalf of business lobby groups.
The Labour spokesman Chuka Umunna said Cable "bent over backwards" to please the business lobby when they wanted his department to review restrictions faced by companies, but was "half-hearted" when the issue affected workers.
"Cable's review is not a proper review with a call for evidence from anyone who wants to take part. It is a half-hearted exercise that is totally inadequate and reflects badly on his judgment," he said.
"The department is only too ready to carry out a formal investigation when business leaders want him to examine the impact on employers of things like redundancy consultation periods, but when there is a need to protect people from abuses by employers, he instructs first one and then three civil servants to have a chat with the relevant parties."
Cable is under pressure from unions and campaign groups to launch a full inquiry into the impact of the controversial employment contracts after a string of employers have been revealed as using them.
The retail chain Sports Direct, online group Amazon, Buckingham Palace and Tate Catering, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Tate art galleries, use the contracts that critics argue allow employers to drive down wages, limit sick and pension benefits and maintain an "on-call" workforce.
The Office for National Statistics, which has tracked the growing use of zero-hours contracts, said this week its own evidence showed that 250,000 people had signed zero-hours contracts, up from a previous estimate of 200,000.
The TUC said on Friday it planned to debate the issue at its conference next month to highlight the increasing casualisation of Britain's workforce.
Umunna said: "What is clear from the evidence so far is that there is widespread use of zero-hours contracts and they are being abused by employers.
"While there can be a justification for their use in certain limited circumstances, they are being applied widely and encompass large swaths of the workforce, with terrible effects on families and young workers.
"The business department should call for evidence and publish its findings. Not a note to the secretary of state based on a few conversations."
A zero-hours contract encourages an employee to be on call but places no obligation on the employer to offer work. Many employees also miss out on holiday pay despite EU rules saying it should be paid. Critics of the contracts say they also allow employers to avoid paying sick pay, pension contributions and other benefits.
A spokeswoman for the business department said the exercise was an "information-gathering process to get a better understanding of the issues".
She said officials would be speaking to industry bodies and unions.
Umunna's criticism came as Sports Direct prepared for a siege by anti-poverty campaigners of its Oxford Street branch in London and its Argyle Street outlet in Glasgow.
The group, Youth Fight for Jobs, which is funded by several trade unions, said a protest against zero-hours contracts would take place on Saturday lunchtime to "inform passersby and staff about the impact of the contracts on workers' lives".

Shorthanded: B's fall to Islanders
|04.11.13 at 9:24 pm ET
Josh Bailey scored twice and Evgeni Nabokov stopped 30-of-31 shots as the Islanders beat the Bruins, 2-1, Thursday night at TD Garden. The Bruins (26-10-4) had their modest two-game win streak snapped and more importantly, fell back into second place in the Northeast Division, one point behind Montreal, which beat the Sabres in Buffalo.
The Bruins played their first game without Brad Marchand, who was diagnosed Thursday with a concussion. He becomes the second player on his line out of action with a concussion, though Patrice Bergeron did return Thursday morning and participated in a light pre-game skate at the Garden.
With Marchand out coach Claude Julien was forced to juggle the lineups again, starting with a line Jaromir Jagr and Milan Lucic, and centered by Gregory Campbell. David Krejci centered the line of Nathan Horton and Daniel Paille.
Adam McQuaid returned after missing the previous 11 games with a shoulder injury. McQuaid's return allowed Julien the chance to rest rookie defenseman Dougie Hamilton for the first time this season. The rookie had played in all 39 games before Thursday's game.
The Bruins and Islanders appeared destined for a scoreless opening period before the Bruins allowed the Isles to break out on a 4-on-2. Bailey ripped off a shot from the top of the left circle that beat Tuukka Rask to the top far corner with 20.5 seconds left in the first.
The Bruins got the goal back on a pretty power play feed from Campbell to Tyler Seguin across the low slot. Seguin's one-timer cleanly beat Nabokov 3:41 into the second for the equalizer. Despite the power play goal, the Islanders carried play though the period, outshooting Boston, 19-8. The hard work paid off for the visitors when Bailey fired a bad-angle shot from the left circle on Rask. The Bruins goalie appeared to have the play covered but allowed the puck to leak through and the Islanders had their second one-goal lead of the night.
It could've been worse for the Bruins but Rask made a spectacular sprawling save on Matt Moulson with 10 minutes left in the second to keep the game tied, three minutes before Bailey's second of the night put New York back on top.
Bailey looked for the hat trick with 5:45 left in the third but Rask made a save that kept the Bruins within one. The Bruins could not sustain any pressure in the Islanders end for most of the third period as the Bruins continued to all the opponent to rack up high shot totals. The Islanders finished with 36 shots on goal.
Rask was pulled with 1:23 left as the Bruins failed in their attempt to get the equalizer.
The Bruins are off Friday before taking on the Hurricanes in Raleigh, N.C. on Saturday night. For more from DJ Bean and Mike Petraglia from the Garden, visit the Bruins team page at weei.com/bruins.

Rotel RB 990BX Cicuit Protection
Hello All.
Newbie....but pretty capable.
I just moved and during the move my Rotel amp. appears to have been dropped.:( Outside chassis is bent in the corner. The circuit protection light is on with nothing hooked up to the amp.
I removed the outside housing and everything appears visually OK, fuses, no burnt circuits, etc.
Any clues or what I could look for?
Cracked pcb or broken solder joints.
Loose connectors.

ceiling fan dimmer switch issue
Hi all, I bought a new ceiling fan - it is a Hampton Bay fan and a Lutron fan / light dimmer. The problem is that the light works but not the fan motor. The way it is wired is power goes into a 3 gang box and I have a switch leg going to the ceiling box. I triple checked to make sure everything was wired right. I'm wondering if all ceiling fans are compatible with those type switches or are there instances when they aren't? And I didn't think to bypass the switch until I had it back in the box. thanks for any info.
Are there seperate conductors for the fan and lights? Is the fan pull chain set on high?
I tried the pull chain on all settings. what do you mean by seperate conductors? In the ceiling box is only the switch leg and it was wired to the module that came with the switch and from there to, yes, 2 seperate wires for the light and fan. Do you think it is possible that I just got a bad fan?
Yes a bad fan motor cannot be ruled out.
But first you have to try it with the dimmer bypassed. Incompatibility between fan motor and dimmer is much more common than a bad fan motor.
You need to splain better.
Is this an electronic switch that sends the sepatate light/fan signal thru one cable (two wires)?

It was an experiment. Hanging out in Vegas during Mix without actually attending Mix.
The Experiment
It had been over a year since I'd been to Vegas and I was feeling the itch. I hadn't been to Mix in previous years so I considered giving it a shot. The problem was that I'd already decided to go to Tech Ed and was seriously considering the PDC so, while VISA would be very happy for me to shell out for Mix, my accountant would chase me down and beat me with her abacus. The solution I came up with was to use travel rewards points for the flight and hotel and then to beg everyone I knew for a conference pass. The first part worked out just fine but it turns out that getting a pass for Mix is harder than getting Steve Ballmer to make Google his default search engine. Thus, the experiment.
I've always thought that networking is a major part of the value of a conference so I decided to see how much I could do by just hanging out at the Venetian for two days. I was confident that I could find someone to attach myself to so I could get invited to dinner, drinks or some kind of influencer party. Three of my colleagues from ObjectSharp were there as well so hanging out with them was an option if I couldn't find someone better. 🙂
Un-Mix – Day 0
I did an architecture talk at the Vancouver Heroes Happen {Here} event the day before the conference started so I didn't arrive until about midnight. I briefly considered heading over the the conference hotel to see if anyone was there but I was pretty beat and decided to stay at my hotel and lose some money at the Craps table instead.
Un-Mix – Day 1
The keynotes were streamed live so I started the day in my room checking out what Ray Ozzie, Scott Guthrie and the gang had to say. This was definitely one of the better keynotes I've seen. I've been down on WPF since it came out (not because of the technology itself but because of the state of the tooling around it) but seeing NBC's Olympics app, Circ de Soleil's recruiting app, and the Hard Rock Cafe Memorabilia app gave me pause. Maybe it's time to learn XAML after all.
After the keynote I headed over to the Venetian to find the conference. I just looked for people with badges and walked in opposite direction. Before I got though the casino I bumped into Richard Campbell, Steven Fotre, and Steve Smith on the hunt for a Starbucks. We walked around for a bit, found the Starbucks in Harrah's and then headed back to the Venetian. As we got into the conference area I looked for a place in a common area to settle down and use some free wifi.
I've been to the conference center at Mandaly Bay before and there is a wide area with a couple shops and places to sit just below the escalators to the conference rooms. I was hoping to find the same thing at the Venetian but as we got closer I realized it wasn't to be. I kept following my three companions up a couple escalators and down a hall realizing that I'd stepped over the border into Mixville – the Open Spaces room to be exact.
At this point I had a decision to make, head back downstairs or stay where I was and be inconspicuous – I chose the latter. I plopped myself down in a white canvas chair (wondering if I was ever going to get my developer sized butt out of the thing) and hung out with the guys. Mark Dunn was there and so was a slightly "tired" Miguel Castro. About five minutes after we got there, Carl Franklin came over and busted out his guitar.
Now, if you want to do some networking, hanging out with Carl and Richard is the place to be. They are definitely people magnets. I had a chance to catch up with a bunch of people I only get to see at conferences and had a great time. At one point Josh Holmes came over and asked me to follow him. I saw Josh doing video interviews earlier so I was concerned that he wanted to interview me. It turned out that he just wanted to hook me up with a guy who was looking for information on user groups in the Toronto area. After we spoke though, Josh did come over and interview the people I was hanging out with. Luckily he started with Carl who was opposite me so I kept my mouth shut hoping Josh wouldn't swing the camera my way – he didn't. It turns out that it was a mute point anyway because at the same time someone else was doing an interview about 10 feet away with me clearly in the background. So much for staying inconspicuous.
Microsoft Regional Directors React to the Keynote
On IE8, Silverlight and the Keynote
Towards the end of the day I spent some time with Derek Hatchard and made plans to sit down with him the next day to record some audio for his podcast. As the day waned people started heading out to get ready for the attendee party. I wasn't ballsy enough to try and crash that so I headed back to my hotel for some dinner and to give away some more of my money to the delightful people at the Craps table.
Un-Mix – Day 2
After pressing my luck the previous day I decided to spend most of day two in my room catching up on email and relaxing. I'd made plans to meet Derek in the late afternoon to record the podcast and then had an official invite to a Canadian attendee gathering at the V-Bar.
I met Derek about 6:00 and we found a quiet place in a hallway to record. We talked about WCF and the goings on at Mix for more than an hour. I'm certain it would have been recorded in the annals of time as the greatest podcast ever but Derek decided to format the hard drive in his laptop without backing up the files first. We'll be re-recording tomorrow.
My final bit of Un-Mix 2008 was spent at the party at the V-Bar. I had a chance to catch up with my ObjectSharp colleagues and meet some people over drinks. The most interesting part of the night was watching the servers. It was very obvious that they were anxious for the geeks to leave so the swanky, jet-set crowd could come in and start tipping.
All-in-all it was a good time but I'm not sure if I'm going to do Un-Mix 2009. If I do, I need to get a decent area to hang out at the bottom of the escalator. I'll also podcast/videocast my experience.

Lately, the world can't get enough of England, from William and Kate to the queen's Diamond Jubilee. Since July 27 our gaze has been fixed across the pond again to the XXX Olympic Games, which continue through Aug. 12.
As a runner, I live for any track event, and I can spend hours watching gymnastics. In the summer, most people are bound to find a few events they like - whether it's cycling, volleyball or badminton.
Because the Summer Games come only once every four years, I have friends who planned to take off work to get in some extra TV time. And when work calls, there's always the live video feed you can stream from the Internet.
With so many of us excited to cheer on our favorite athletes, what better occasion to have a party? This menu offers a little bit of everything while perfectly tying into an Olympic theme.
Because the Games are taking place in London, fish and chips is the star of the show. Although not normally thought of as party food, this classic turns into hearty appetizer fare when made from this pared-down recipe.
Baked jalapeño poppers will bring a little heat to the party. If you don't want to turn on the oven, throw them on the grill. Farmers markets are your best source this time of year for fresh peppers.
Although the party's signature drink highlights passionfruit liqueur, you may want to consider offering your guests milk if they can't take the heat of the peppers.
The Olympic rings were designed in 1912 and represent the five continents that compete in the games. A fruit pizza is an easy and festive way to pay homage to this history. The five colors of the rings are re-created with blackberries, strawberries, blueberries, kiwi and pineapple. Combine any leftover fruit to make a delicious fruit salad.
When you think of England, this dish from chiff.com comes to mind. You can substitute any firm, white fish fillet for the cod.
For the chips:
4 medium potatoes, peeled
4 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt
For the fish:
2 cups plain unseasoned breadcrumbs
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon dried oregano
4 egg whites, lightly beaten
2 pounds cod fillets, cut into 1 ½-inch wide strips
¼ cup vegetable oil
Grease a large baking sheet with vegetable oil spray. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Cut potatoes lengthwise into 1-inch fries. Toss potatoes with the 4 teaspoons oil and the 1 teaspoon salt until they are evenly coated.
Arrange potatoes on baking sheet and bake in preheated oven about 30 minutes, turning halfway through. When done, chips should be soft on the inside and golden brown on the outside.
While potatoes cook, prepare fish. In a shallow dish, mix together breadcrumbs, the ½ teaspoon salt, the pepper and oregano.
In another shallow dish, beat egg whites well with a fork until frothy. Dip fish strips first into egg whites, shaking off any excess, and then into breadcrumb mixture. Be sure that fish is covered with breadcrumbs on all sides.
In a large skillet, heat the ¼ cup oil over medium-high. Add one layer of fish pieces to pan and fry until they are golden, about 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Repeat this until all of fish pieces are cooked. Serve fish over the chips.
The name of the jalapeño popper recipe from cabotcheese.coop says it all. Make sure to keeps your hands away from your face after preparing this dish - or better yet, wear disposable latex gloves.
6 jalapeño peppers
½ cup grated cheddar cheese
1 ½ ounces cream cheese
¼ teaspoon ground chipotle pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 large egg
2/3 cup unflavored dry breadcrumbs
¼ teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly oil baking sheet and set aside.
Cut peppers in half lengthwise; scrape out and discard seeds.
In small bowl, mix together cheddar cheese, cream cheese, chipotle pepper and garlic powder; fill each pepper half with some of the mixture.
In one bowl, lightly beat egg until frothy. In another bowl, stir together breadcrumbs and salt. Roll each filled pepper in egg, then in breadcrumbs. Place on baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven until tender and browned, about 30 minutes. Serve warm.
This festive recipe is from Taste of Home. You can make it a day in advance. Just refrigerate until serving.
½ cup (1 stick) butter, room temperature
½ cup solid vegetable shortening
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
3 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted and cooled
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups flour
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, room temperature
½ cup powdered sugar
2 cups thawed whipped topping
½ cup fresh blueberries
½ cup fresh blackberries
½ cup diced fresh strawberries
½ cup pineapple tidbits, drained
1 large kiwi, peeled and chopped
In a bowl, cream butter, shortening and sugars. Beat in egg, melted chocolate and vanilla; mix well. In separate bowl, combine flour, cocoa and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture, beating until thoroughly incorporated. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place wax paper over a 15-by-10-inch baking sheet without sides. Shape chilled dough into a flattened rectangle and place on prepared baking sheet. Cover dough with another piece of wax paper; roll out dough to within ¼ inch of edges of baking sheet. Remove top sheet of wax paper; invert dough onto another greased baking sheet. Remove remaining wax paper.
Using a 4 ½-inch-diameter plate or bowl and a knife, trace three touching circles along one long side of the dough, making shallow markings. Trace two more circles centered below the three, and overlapping the upper circles by 1 inch. Cut around outer edges of the circles; remove dough around the outside and use to make cookies if desired.
Bake the Olympic ring-shaped dough in preheated oven 14 to 16 minutes. Cool on a wire rack on pan for a few minutes, then remove to the rack to cool completely.
In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Add whipped topping; mix well.
Transfer cooled crust to a serving platter. Spread with cream cheese frosting. On the top circles, from left to right, place blueberries, blackberries and strawberries, arranging as "rings" around the perimeter of the circles. Arrange pineapple and kiwi similarly into rings on the lower circles. Store in refrigerator.
No party is complete without a cocktail. This recipe from ehow.com is suitable for cheering on your favorite athlete or for any summer gathering.
1 ounce (2 tablespoons) passionfruit liqueur
5 ounces (½ cup plus 2 tablespoons) lemon-lime soda
Fresh strawberry for garnish
Combine liqueur and soda in a glass with crushed ice. Top with a strawberry garnish.

Another person finally wakes up to TSA abuse
Hard to believe as it is that people still don't know what the TSA is doing in this country ("as long as nothing happens to me, it's all okay!"), I'm always glad to meet a new convert. Even if it means that in order to be converted, that person has to be mistreated him- or herself. Unfortunately, that seems to be the way the world works. As the saying by Livy goes, "Eventus stultorum magister est" — "Fools must be taught by experience."
