Peeling moonlight from your skin, white
Ripples as I touch your breasts,
As you touch mine. Together we peel layer
By layer. For this moment, you promise,
We are one, coiled together, dew misting
Our skin, darkness widening our eyes.
I'm the first, again you promise, to feel
The wind through these oaks and your flesh
Tender against mine. But I know you made
Love here before: other women, other men,
The statues all around. I will never leave,
I know, so I pray you let the moment last.

UTA -220 & IllSt -195
250 pays 300.
Neither team has lost at home all year. Both great teams that have played their first non-tourney game, and thus have proven they are at least somewhat motivated to make an impression for next year. Both short #s, I'd be more concerned with illst covering than it's, which I also played at -4.5.
Hit it with a brick.
Lose some to win some
I will also be on csu -4, wyo-9, gwsh -6, tamcc -1 & over 146, uta-4.5, Boise +8, camp pk, iib pk.
And that's why illst didn't make the tourny... Enormous first half lead blown.. dumb foul up 1 late to lose... UTA doing their job tho. Camp and Lib already producing cake. Hopefully the rest fall this way.

Fear, fear, fear, fear, and fear.
1. I am afraid of cockroaches, sand crickets and those long horned pine bugs. I used to have a re-ocurring nightmare about a massive cockcroach standing on its hind legs at the foot of my bed. In the dream it would fall and smother me.
2. Mustard. Ever since I was a little girl I have been afraid of mustard. If I see it, smell it or touch it I get panic attacks. If I don;t know it is there it doesn' t bother me.
3. I am afraid for all the lost souls out there.
4. I am afraid that I am crazier than I realize and when people encourage me to live a normal life they are secretly just humoring me. That they really think I am not capable of accomplishing anything.
5. I am afraid that I will be alone forever because so far I have not been called to the religious life, I am crazy and the only person I care to think about doesn't care about me (or just thinks I am insane - in a not endearing way). I am even more afraid that I will be called to motherhood though, and not do a good job because I hate it or something like that.

Foaminator 2.0
Outside the gates to the park on Main Street was a small booth that dispensed coffee, hot and steaming, any which way you liked it from 6.30am right through to 7pm.
Nancy ran the coffee booth, she was 23, going on 33 some of her gal pals said, and all day long she served up chatter and a pleasant smile to all who called by her booth. On warm days there were fold up tables and chairs that Nancy would set up by the booth and today as it was so fine, each and every chair was occupied. there was a samll queue growing now but as usual this didn't stop Nancy from being friendly to the customer she was currrently serving.
Out of the corner of her eye Nancy could see Joel walking along. He was a strange boy, usually quiet, but always waved to Nancy when he was passing. if there weren't too many customers at the time Nancy would always wave him over and offer him a free coffee to warm his bones after sitting in his cardboard box.
The coffee which was so well loved by one and all was brewed up with gleaming chrome pride by one Foaminator 2.0 Deluxe Coffee Maker. Foaminator loved making coffee more than life itself, coffee to Foaminator after all was life, its sole purpose.
Today however Foaminator wasn't feeling so well. It had started about an hour into the day with a sort of low grumbling from the depths of his body, had later developed to a build up of pressure that caused, quite frankly an equally annoying headache and a high pitched whine. And then the clunking started. Foaminator battle bravely for a moment before the clunking grew louder and ended in a shudder, something which sounded like a burp...and then Foaminator exploded, its lid flying off and up, across the street, startling both a nearby young girl, and the gull she currently seemed to be having some sort of argument with.
As Nancy looked around in disbelief she heard loud guffaws of laughter, looking around she saw an elderly gentleman sitting slapping his knees and damn near rolling on the floor with that loud belly laugh.

Ratings are in for the second episode of Stargate Universe, and the show continues to struggle to find its audience on Tuesday nights.
"Aftermath" drew an estimated 1.07 million viewers last night at 9 p.m. on Syfy, down 9 percent from its season premiere the previous week (1.175 million). That's according to sources at PIFeedback.com.
But the premiere — "Intervention" — did quite well up in Canada last Friday, with a reported 16 percent increase over the June season finale for the SPACE network. Since ratings in the U.S. and Canada tend to trend about the same for SGU, that's a sign that viewers here haven't abandoned Stargate but instead failed to track the change to Tuesday night (or they're recording it and choosing another favorite Tuesday show to watch live).
SGU faces big network competition on its new night, including the live results show for Dancing With the Stars (16.7 million viewers this week) and NCIS: Los Angeles (16.15 million this week).
The first DVR numbers will shed more light on the story when they are available in about two weeks' time.
This week is also Universe's first Tuesday with a lead-out show, with the mid-season premiere of Caprica. The episode, titled "Unvanquished," was watched live by 889,000 viewers. (Syfy's lead-in for the night is a repeat of the previous week's episode of SGU.)
That's a new series low for Caprica — which is also airing on Tuesdays for the first time — as well as its second trip below the 1 million mark. Approximately 1.1 million watched the mid-season finale in March.
New episodes of Stargate Universe and Caprica continue next Tuesday starting at 9 p.m. E/P with an episode we're very excited about, "Awakening." If you don't mind a few spoilers, learn more about it now in GateWorld's Season Two episode guide!
And stay tuned to GateWorld all week long for our full coverage of "Aftermath!" We have episode analysis, the summary and transcript, podcast, a high-res screencap gallery, and Omnipedia updates on the way.
Very disappointing. I live in Canada so I have to wait until Friday to see the episode, but I think Syfy should move SGU back to Fridays (and Caprica) if it wants both shows to survive. They really can't handle the Tuesday night competition.
I have a feeling SGU season 2 will be it's final season. Unless they completely revamp the way they write episodes and move it to another day/time (Fridays for example).
Past couple of episodes have firmly estabilished my belief that SGU will henceforth be known as "Battlegate Voyager". Those familar with the 3 aforementioned shows (BSG, Stargate, ST: Voyager), will understand why I view SGU like this.
Based on Canada's succesful ratings, it seems that SGU would do better in its original Friday night time slots as opposed to this new arrangement. It seems cruicial that this change be reversed in order to ensure SGU's continuance beyond its current season.
I'm shocked CAP and SGU had very good episodes I managed to catch them live and I wasn't dissapointed, I wanna give a shout-out to peeps in canada keep tuning in we have an allied assault.
remember folks it's only the few thousand people that have their viewing stats recorded. Also, no matter how good the episode that just aired is, it is a reflection of how well the previous episode did. The premier wasn't fabulous, that is reflected in EP 2 ratings. Ep 2 was fabulous, so expect a jump in Ep 3 ratings
I've watched every episode of every show, and as much as I've loved the previous incarnations, SGU is such a step up. While the humor was great on the previous versions, everything was so cookie cutter, from the music to the effects to the way it was shot. The performances got me through a lot of cheeseball stories. I feel like, now, it's become more of a grown up show. Yes, it has taken some things from Battlestar, but only the good. The sexuality isn't as heavy, the morality tales aren't as preachy. Politics is avoided (other than that of the personal variety). It has also kept much of the good from the original series, the sense of exploration of the vast unwelcoming universe.
It is unfortunate that they moved it from Friday night, I just hope the DVR viewership stays high.
By they way, I for one am grateful for the desert scene. I was getting tire of every planet in they universe looking like Vancouver.
Perhaps they will have time to wrap up the story by the end of Season 2. Most shows don't get that.
LOL!, way to shift the focus over with the "But enough about me, Have you heard how badly Caprica is Doing?" All this talk about Re-vamping, re-thinking, re-designing SGU.. How about Re-turning back to Atlantis, where They had obviously better ratings, and kept the Fandom together? Willing to bet good money that if the same effort is put forth, The fans will come back in droves, possibly even approaching the now Purely Mythical 1.6Mil + 1.6mil viewers.
Well, for the first time ever, I actually posted a decent review for an episode of SGU at "that other site". I was fair and I actually liked it! But I also knew that the ratings would only uptick a bit, or follow the established pattern of the downward trend from season 1.0 and 1.5
Its obvious that TPTB have made some changes which improved this episode enough to keep me engaged in the story. It was dark, gritty and the special effects were great. But the trampling of the canon, the BSG-like "manifestations" of Rush's wife and Franklin, the mystical babblings of TJ and others…its too BSG. Baltar/Caprica 6 with a twist. And of course, there is the baggage of season 1 that this show is carrying, which is not a good thing.
But MANY of us fans saw this coming and can see whats coming. I just hope that TPTB are learning something about pissing off the fandom that elevated them to positions of power over the past 15 years. Forget about the cancellation of Atlantis, lets just concentrate on the "loooooong haul" rant, the "V will be another letter in the alphabet" rant, and the lies tossed about regarding "those angry Atlantis fans". Its not just Atlantis fans, its SG-1 fans who became Atlantis fans. Is anyone getting it? SG-1 and SGA are Stargate shows. SGU is named Stargate but is an entirely different show in a different genre. It didnt help to imply that TPTB wanted to be so different from the other shows, yet had cameos from those shows and are planning more from Atlantis. This WILL NOT DRAW OLD FANS BACK. Concentrate on getting new fans.
But why am I wasting keystrokes? Nobody is listening who can do anything about this so we have to watch it run its course. Unfortunately for SGU that course is a one way ticket to Cancellation Station.
It could have been so much more.
This pisses me off so much! This proves that the ratings are innacurate. I mean come on. There were so many tweets related to SGU, so much media coverage. COME ON! If this show gets cancelled a part of my soul will be destroyed. I've never felt this way about a TV show before. I just really really don't want it to go away. GOD.
As the old selling addage goes "Location, Location, Location." Tuesday night is not a good night for this network during the fall. If Sci-Fi (I just can't bring myself to type the other name) wants these shows to get viewers, it should go back to a working formula that happened in Season 8 of SG1. Can anyone say "Sci-Fi Fridays". SGU @ 8/7CT followed by Sanctuary @ 9/8CT followed by Caprica @ 10/9CT. Why this network is the home of WWE Smackdown I'll never understand.
Wish it was on Fridays night again… i watch both SGU and Caprica that night. drove from work to home. watch it live doing my part.
The worst ratings of the entire Stargate franchise! All SG1 and SGA episodes had more viewers.
As usual it is the people that get paid the most money to perform that end up pulling the whole thing apart with bad decisions.
Those that run the marketing department at syfy channel should swallow their pride, admit they have stuffed up big time, and put the show back to a time slot that it can compete on.
SGU is a good show, far better than most of the garbage that does get to run more seasons, and needs a better chance to survive than what it is currently being given.
The 2 episodes so far this season have been just excellent. I liked the first season, but this,so far, in my opinion, is a huge step up in several ways.
You mean their strategy of giving the viewers what they don't want isn't paying off?
[…] Well, it looks like the ratings for Stargate Universe continue to swirl around the black hole of cancellation. […]
SGU was the first Stargate show I watched and it was because of Hulu. I saw the movie in 94 and thought it was great, but SG-1 was just to cheesy for me. I have since gone and watched all of SG-1 and Atlantis on Hulu and Netflix, but I still like SGU the best. I really enjoyed both BSG and Voyager, so if the show harkens back to two shows that are no longer on, then I'm alright with that. They need to figure in Hulu viewers and they also need a better system for determining live viewer ship.
and tuesday is fine with me, I just DVR whatever else is on. Plus, I was never home on friday nights anyway.
Sadly I knew this would be the case. Ratings are so innacurate because only a handful of people actually count. I hate to say it but if this continues this could be the last season.
I live in Canada and am happy to know that the ratings increased and i think that the only reason syfy has low ratings is because of the Tuesday night…everybody seems to know that so why the hell wont syfy move it already??
If american audience dislike so much SGU, please give the show only for the rest of the world.
It will survive easily…
They have only shown 2 episodes on Tuesdays, they are not going to move it again that quickly. People would really not be able to find it even if they wanted to.
And what day would they move it to? The rest of the week is pretty booked.
Part of the problem, at least here in Southern California is that many of us with HDTVs refuse to watch shows in Standard Def and SGU airs at 8pm on SyFy HD.. this puts it against the highest rated show, NCIS, which I am a huge fan of. Why they would put SGU against this show is incredible to me… SyFy HD needs to adjust their schedule so that it's in sync with their SD channel OR move it back to Friday which was PERFECT!

CHICAGO, March 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- CNA today unveiled its first edition of "Risk Outlook," a new study designed to support enterprise risk management. The first edition, titled Impacts of the Great Recession, explores current industry issues backed with actual CNA claim data for the construction industry.Few industries experienced as substantial of an impact to employment as the construction industry did during the Great Recession, when more than 25 percent of jobs were lost between 2008 and 2010, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. As the economy recovers, many workers who left the industry have not returned, requiring organizations to find new employees among a talent pool that is short on experience. Impacts of the Great Recession identifies the effects this gap has had on the construction industry, specifically injury rates on the job, and it analyzes claim data specific to CNA's construction portfolio to help contractors understand the risks their businesses face. Impacts of the Great Recession is the first Risk Outlook in a series of studies that will use CNA claim data to respond to current emerging trends. The series will examine business implications and provide links to resources for real-time, actionable risk management solutions that will support enterprise business initiatives in 2014. Future Risk Outlook topics will include:

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I just moved in about a month ago (found the place on Craigslist) and just found out that they are selling and using drugs, I think heroin, what is the best course of action? I can't just break my lease and move. (can't afford to)
Well, a drug conviction would be even more expensive than having to relocate abruptly. You need to let your landlord know what is going on. In writing. Arguably this is "gang-related activity" and your roommates can be evicted for this conduct, but they might not be happy with you if they lost their housing, and that might complicate your life in unpleasant ways. Your roommates are breaching the covenant of quiet enjoyment by dealing/using drugs, and the sooner you get out of this situation, the better.
You would not be "breaking the lease" you would be mitigating your damages in response to your roommate's breach/ Tough situation, but I still think it would be cheaper to leave now rather than wait for the cops to arrest you for being complicit. HJP has a really smart crew of attorneys at the Superior Court in Everett, if you go there in the morning, you may be able to get some personalized advice.

Andy - Televisions really do give off radiation. But having said that, its only a little bit of radiation and its not that dangerous. What happens is that anything with a cathode ray tube, a tube where you shoot high-energy electrons at some sort of screen, when those electrons hit the screen, they give off very low energy x-ray radiation. This is the same way that x-rays are produced in regular x-ray tubes. So, if you're sitting close to a cathode ray tube, whether a computer monitor, a television screen, a radar set or anything else with that type of technology, you're going to be getting low doses of x-ray radiation.
[img float=left]/forum/copies/RTEmagicC_800px-1950__s_television_01.jpg.jpg[/img]Now having said that, Ive got to emphasize, they're low doses of radiation. Its not enough to be dangerous and in fact, if you watch your television for several hours a day all year, you're getting less radiation than you would from a single medical x-ray and less radiation than you get from the radioactivity thats just naturally within your body. So, its something that we can measure, but its not something thats harmful.
LCD and plasma screens don't give off any radiation at all. They don't use high-energy electrons. Its a different type of technology. I could not say that they're safer because I don't consider the radiation from cathode ray tubes to be a risk, but I can say that they give off less radiation. As far as sitting too close to the television goes, the further back you are, the lower the radiation dose will be. But having said that, I don't consider the radiation dose even at a distance of just one metre to be dangerous.
"TV's now have LCD screens ... and emit no radiation. "Dark in here, isn't it.
Quote from: Bored chemist on 08/10/2009 18:41:29"TV's now have LCD screens ... and emit no radiation. "Dark in here, isn't it.I don't agree. Every TV in my house is still CRT-based. There will be a long legacy of the old TV days before these old units are all replaced.Chris
I don't agree. Every TV in my house is still CRT-based. There will be a long legacy of the old TV days before these old units are all replaced.Chris
I always thought that CRTs emitted x-rays (albeit at low intensity) and this was the reason not to sit too close, so as to reduce the dose. But then again, unless they are coming off at very wide angles, the distance from the TV wouldn't make an enormous different to your dose would it, air not posing much of a barrier to an x-ray...

After my appointment with Doctor Andrews, I went straight home, though I'm no house-wife. I'm no entrepreneur. I'm not on maternity leave, have not been for years now. This was irregular, especially at eleven in the morning. I closed the car door calmly, not to make a sound, and walked up the cobbled-stone path. We live in one of those innocent suburban houses, on one of those quiet streets where every house looks like it was designed by the same unambitious architect.
When I turned the key in the lock, it refused to click. Just as I suspected, the house was already unlocked. He was at home. No, not my loving husband; Michael was not home. This was another man. Same body, same face. Mick. That's what the boys called him. He needs help more than I do.
I tried to remain calm as I gently closed the door behind me. I stopped myself, about to stomp the snow off my boots. Unlacing them, I placed them gently on the rubber shoe-mat to melt. Again, my migraine throbbed. I wanted to scream. No, they would hear me.
They would be downstairs, assuming he was back into his old pattern. The backyard patio-door, a floor below, was to be left unlocked. So was the gate at the back of our yard, conveniently open to the parkway. A house can only be so far from its local high school.
I tip-toed up the carpeted stairs, avoiding the creaky step. Every house has one, even the houses as new as ours. As long as you listen for it. But just one. The others are silent by comparison. Maybe it was my medication, but I do not remember walking down the upstairs hall. I just remember leaning against my bed and tucking myself under the soft, pink covers. And falling asleep.
No, no. I did not fall asleep. I tried. I tossed and turned for a good, frustrating ten minutes. Then I reached for the remote at the bedside and clicked on the television. A soap opera I was taping. I was two episodes behind, but I figured I would not remember any of it clearly when I woke up.
I fell asleep with the remote in my hand. At some point, I reckon I must have rolled onto it. And after a few buttons had been pushed, I was not watching my soap opera at all. It must have flicked first to Input 1 - the black screen of the empty, turned-off DVD player. Then, at some point, it got muted. And again, Input 2 - that hidden camera I had suspiciously installed in the basement a year ago when this whole fiasco began. Luckily, the volume was low and I was asleep. And the remote fell off the edge of the bed, and turned off. Or maybe I had had the foresight to use the sleep-timer function. In any case, the television turned itself off.
Chapter 2, Scene 2: They Brand Her A Cuckold
It was one of those dreams I would only be able to recall just after waking up. Except, because it was so poignant and disturbing, I remembered it long afterwards. I think Doctor Andrews was wrong - the paranoia is not healthy. Not at all. That is what the dream was. A nightmare. A conspiracy. A day of frightful gossip.
The street barbecue was to be a month away, when spring came. However, I dreamed of it. Kyle Andrews at the grill, flipping priapic hot dogs. They were the naked, nearly hairless loins of adolescent youth. Burning and searing at the mercy of his tongs.
Linda and Helen were together, arm in arm, chatting to a group of neighbours from down the street. I knew what they said, though I did not hear them. Tales of young boys, thirteen and fourteen. Their lunch breaks, spent walking down the parkway to visit the open patio door - where the naked man stood invitingly.
"Cuckold!", they laughed and pointed. They did not cringe. They did not pity. They laughed at me. It was a word for a man, and because Mick was bisexual I guess they felt it to be accurate. And I turned, embarrassed, to look across the street. Michael was there, crying. He wasn't Mick, at that moment. Mick was elsewhere, talking with the young men from across the street. Those twins, with their hair gel and baggy pants.
And I turned again, to look back at my neighbours. Kyle was sitting in his therapist's chair, beside the barbecue. And he thrust a fork in my face, and on the end was the most grotesque thing I have ever seen. Marked by the blackened grill marks. Dripping with oil. Stabbed by the two prongs of the fork. Bulging. Erect. This was no sausage.
As if all was innocent, he patted his oven-mittened hand against the purple leather therapy couch. It was the shiny purple of tumescent glans.
I woke up with a jolt. That was all I remembered of the dream. Never before had my unconscious mind flaunted a message so - so disturbing! I leaned over the bed and vomited.

The Red Devils head to the Stadium of Light on the back of their 1-1 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last weekend and looking to secure victory to keep their top-four hopes on track.
United are currently fifth in the Premier League table and six points behind Manchester City in fourth as they head into the final 13 games of the season.
Former Arsenal man Merson feels that the Red Devils have turned a corner in recent weeks following their stuttering form in the Premier League and is backing them to head back to Manchester with three points on Saturday.
Merson told Sky Sports: "Manchester United have turned the corner, I've been impressed. They looked really good at Chelsea and thoroughly deserved a draw at least.
"Sunderland, meanwhile, will have felt they did well against Man City, despite losing, and then they got a lucky draw at Liverpool if I'm being honest.
"We will have to see whether the speculation surrounding Louis van Gaal's future affects United but they seem to have turned the corner and I expect them to win at the Stadium of Light."

A battle of unbeaten English Premier League teams in November is the kind of match-up fans dream of, but the two teams ready to take part in that battle aren't the teams many would have envisioned before the season began.
First-place Manchester City takes on the biggest surprise of the Premier League season, Newcastle, in the weekend's most enticiing match-up. It might not have the big-name attraction of some other high-profile match-ups, but it will be a telling contest about both unbeatens.
The more high-profile match-up of the weekend will be in London, where Chelsea will take on Liverpool. The Blues are in dire need of points as manager Andres Villas Boas faces pressure to produce results while Liverpool badly needs results to avoid falling too far behind the pack challenging for places in the Premier League's Top Four.
England isn't the only league that will feature quality battles. Napoli takes on Lazio in a star-studded affair, while the Mexican League playoffs also get underway.
The MLS Cup Final will have its place among the weekend's premier matches as well, with the Los Angeles Galaxy looking to complete a dream season against an underdog Houston side looking to finish off a late-season hot streak with another championship.

Jozy on ESPN3 again! Love the Three!
possibly, but ESPN Deportes has shown Dutch games for awhile now. So ESPN has always had the feeds.
Was this a sarcastic joke ?
"The MLS Cup Final will have its place among the weekend's premier matches as well"
atletico man
He said it would have its place, not that it was one of them…
Any idea of how to watch the mls cup in the uk.. On the road this weekend
It's on ESPN3.
For a U.S audience? Of course it has it's.place among the premier matches. Unless you're a total Eurosnob.
Chelsea vs Liverpool is also being replayed on Fox before or after whatever NFL game is on Fox that day.
For me in Minneapolis, that means it's on at 2pm ET
Norwich v. Arsenal very entertaining. Fluid stuff from both sides. Norwich goal after Metsersacker goes down like a wet piece of spaghetti trying to challenge Morrison.
Or even a partial Eurosnob.

Living in Houston, many of us know what it like to have the air conditioner go out in the car or house. But what do you do if your air conditioning stops working and you're thousands of miles up in space. NASA says you get out and fix it. So Saturday astronauts will put on their space suit, grab their tools and get to work. This is NASA spokesman Kelly Humphries.
"This is an oven size component. It's a big square box and its got some electrical connections and it's got some plumbing connections on it. And it's a little bit like changing out your oven, where you have to change out the electrical connection and the gas connection."
The walk was originally supposed to take place on Friday. But NASA decided they needed an extra day of planning. Replacing the part will take two days. So astronauts will do as much as they can Saturday and then finish the job the following Wednesday.
"This is a challenging g spacewalk, there's no doubt about it. We haven't done one of these replacement for these pumps yet. However we did do a lot of the ammonia connections on these kinds of things earlier on and so they have worked with these connectors."
Humphries says they have people practicing the mission in huge water tanks to simulate what it will be like in space. So far, the practice missions have worked according to plan. And, they expect the same during the spacewalk.

Conquest Racing Gains Ground in Qualifying at Chicagoland Speedway
Joliet, Illinois (September 6, 2008) - Conquest Racing put in one of their best combined oval qualifying performances of the year today during the qualifications for the PEAK Anitfreeze and Motor Oil Indy 300 at Chicagoland Speedway. Jaime Camara recorded his best starting position of the season with the 17th spot on the grid while new teammate Alex Tagliani will make his return to oval racing with a 19th place in the starting lineup.
Tagliani, who last ran on a superspeedway in 2005 and who was participating in only his second race weekend aboard the Conquest Dallara, was the second driver to put in his qualifying run. The Las Vegas resident registered an average speed of 212.943 good for 19th overall. Camara, sitting 17th in the qualifying order, put in four strong laps averaging a speed of 213.417 to temporarily place himself ninth. By the time the final qualifier took the checkered flag, the Brazilian rookie was 17th, his best starting position this season.
The green flag drops on the PEAK Antifreeze and Motor Oil Indy 300 at 3:30 p.m. eastern time tomorrow. The race will be broadcast live on ABC.
Conquest Racing Quoteboard
17th - Jaime Camara #34 Sangari Dallara/Honda/Firestone
"It was a good run. We made a lot of improvements and the car is handling well. The guys did a great job once again. That's the best qualifying run we've had this season and it feels good. We lost some spots from when I first went out but I'm happy with my qualifying today. Now we'll just focus on the race and finish the 'points' paying season in good shape."
19th - Alex Tagliani #36 Conquest Racing Dallara/Honda/Firestone
"It was good and such a long time since I had been on a superspeedway! First of all I have to say thanks to the Conquest organization. They have a very good group of people and I feel very fortunate to be here and to help them with the car. This weekend the boys are doing a fantastic job, again. We're a little further back than what we would've liked on the grid but the car was running well in traffic during practice today, so hopefully we can have a good race tomorrow."
Eric Bachelart, Conquest Racing Team Owner
"We're making progress and I believe that we are heading in the right direction. Obviously there is still ways to go but I feel we can have a good race tomorrow because we have a good race car. The engineers, the crew and drivers have done a great job today and I am really proud of the team effort."

The Arrangement (Kariai #2)
Even though Eyal has his own bed room in the little cottage he seems to always end up in a chair next Sarai's bed. (The second one-shot in the Kariai verse novel series)
Even though he went into his own bedroom every night he spent most of them in Sarai's sitting by her bed. He knew that he shouldn't, they were sage in the cottage wrapped in the arms of the forest, but something drew him back every time and more often than not he woke up in a chair.
He remembered the night they had to run from the palace as rebels broke down the iron gates. The night air crackled with the scent of fire and the voices of angry men crying for blood. Eyal had been given very distinct instructions to save the princess if anything ever happened and even as the sounds of dying guards and servants followed him down the darkened hallways of the palace he had found the crying child hiding under her bed and spirited her outside unnoticed.
If he had gone back he might have been able to save the king and queen but Eyal was loyal so even though it broke his heart he ran. "Protect Sarai, never let her out of your sight," those had been the king's words and he had obeyed. He had found the safe house in the woods with little trouble and the rest of the night had been spent trying to calm Sarai down.
That night haunted him, in his dreams and during the day. The nightmares were vivid and sharp, the screams echoing around in his skull and more than once he had woken up because of the phantom smell of smoke. The day time was easier, he could deal with the pangs of sadness whenever Sarai smiled and looked exactly like her mother, but the nights were the worst.

As millions struggle to survive in the wasteland that America has become, a young man fights to maintain its founding promise.
Starvation, violence, and death run rampant in the remains of our once-proud country. Federal troops, commissioned to protect the homeland, have turned their guns on the lawless population. Citizens find shelter in government safe zones while ruthless gangs enforce their will outside the camps.
When the military transforms Washington's life-saving food bank into a gun collection center in order to disarm all but the soldiers themselves, riots ensue. Weary of the militaristic government's intent to render the citizens defenseless, America's remaining patriots begin a mass migration out of the camps in search of refuge.
American Apocalypse Wastelands tells of a young man discovering the role he must play to defend himself, others, and his country as everything around him crumbles.

somebody goofed
Ok. First off the story isn't bad. I really like the whole apocalypse genre but this book has some problems. The narrator sucks, he reminds me of the band camp chick from American Pie trying to imitate John Wayne. I don't know where that accent comes from but I don't want to go there. Secondly this is not a stand alone book, it is one of a series. If you don't have the first book in the series you are lost. The author never explains what is going on, how things got to be the way they are or how long they have been in the situation they are in. You have no idea who the characters are or anything about them. The worst thing, and that's debatable, about this book is that Audible released it first. Bad move guys.
A couple of good points is that the author is technically accurate. He knows a good bit about the firearms described and I get the feeling he was infantry from the way he describes some of the action. I was impressed that he knew that hiking down hill can be worse than going up, oohrah there devil dog. Another thing in his favor is that the story isn't gun porn, in which the author takes a paragraph to describe the weapon and a sentence for the action. The action itself is good. The hero gets some boo boos once in a while but he seems to walk between the raindrops so to speak and never receives a major wound. Pretty darn lucky for standing out in the open and letting folks shoot at you
The genre is enjoyable
ANYFRICKINBODY!!! This guy shouldn't be a narrator he ought to be a DJ at a nudie bar.
It would have been with another narrator and if Audible had released the first book first
This is one of those that you get when you have an extra credit but it will never be a first choice
- Kent
Thoroughly Enjoyed
This book didn't have a lot of reviews and I was skeptical to purchase, I'm glad I did!! It started off a little different but got going relatively quick, the story line was creative and feasible…I particularly liked how the book portrayed the actions of the government and its response to the given situation, it's par for their current trajectory. I love an action packed book and this book was filled with it, the main character is one crazy SOB…I loved it. I couldn't put this book down. It had one element towards the end that I'm not sure belonged…but the authors note at the end made it palatable. I do enjoy the books that reflect a crisis and the aftermath created by a controlling government. This book rates as one of my favorites…along side "Patriots" by James Wesley Rawles and "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Wondering if anyone has had similar problem or can help me?!
I have a new Garmin 405CX - used it for first time yesterday (had 110 for a while so used to Garmin Connect). Uploaded route wirelessly yesterday and no route map, elevation or pace graphs are showing in connect. Anyone any ideas what's gone wrong?
Are you perhaps trying to use it with the same old software on your computer that you used with the 110? If so, uninstall the old software then go to the Garmin site and download the software for the 405cx. If you've got the new software already installed, you can try going into the settings menu of the 405cx and do a manual 'push' of the training data over to your computer. The option is in Settings somewhere. If that doesn't work,try uninstalling and reinstalling the ANT Agent.
Hope one of those options helps you out. I only learned all of that yesterday btw, when my own 405 was having problems uploading info and I came here to ask for help...

Shortly after returning from his official visit to California on Oct. 31, Harbor City (Calif.) Narbonne offensive tackle Alex Akingbulu's phone went on the fritz. He had left one major cliffhanger out there for the recruiting world:
So, what makes his decision now so much more difficult? He made a point of getting in touch with BearTerritory to talk about just that.
"I saw how great of a balance Cal has as a school, and the academics are the best, truly, the best public school in the country," Akingbulu said. "How great the academics are, but also to have a great football team, too, great coaching and to have those two aspects in one school really surprised me."
Cal was his first official visit, and this weekend, after he finishes playing in a second-round playoff game on Friday, he'll take his second, to Utah. Only one will be left -- to UCLA, on January 22 -- but that may not happen (he may instead take an earlier, unofficial visit). While he'll have to fold his 6-foot-6 frame into a plane for a night flight to Salt Lake City, right after a game, his visit to Berkeley got off on the right foot, as it were: He got an exit row. A good start, and it only got better.
"I was very happy with the extra leg room," he laughs, and, "the Bay Area in general, how beautiful it is over there, you have so many things you can do -- you cross the street, and there's San Francisco."
Akingbulu was hosted by fellow Southern California native Jaylinn Hawkins and starting center Dominic Granado, and the weekend went swimmingly for the three-star prospect.
"There were so many historical buildings and monuments, the dinosaur bones, and then, we came back, watched the game, great atmosphere," Akingbulu said. "The fans were great. After the game, we went to dinner with all the coaches, and talked. After that, we spent time with our hosts, and the team. We had a good time. In the morning, we got to sit in with the meetings with the positions and the whole team, and I got to sit down with all the coaches, including coach [Brandon] Jones, the offensive line coach. He was scouting film for the Oregon game, so I just had a blast.
"I saw how they lined up, the splits, especially the tackles, the two-point stance, I talked to coach [Brandon Jones] about kick-slides, the splits -- everything that fits me, they pretty much do," Akingbulu continued. "It made me think that I can't wait for college, just how great of a coach he is, and how we can see plays, how he could pick apart plays, and I could pick his brain, and I can use it in my play, right now, in watching film, and just seeing the defense through a great coach."
Education, though, was the primary focus. His parents first moved to the U.S. -- Michigan, specifically, where his aunt lived -- before he was born, and then came out to California because, he laughs, "Mom didn't love the weather, so she picked Cali."
Akingbulu, born in the United States to Nigerian parents, who immigrated 20 years ago, says his parents "loved" the educational dimension that Cal brings to the table, but they will support him no matter which school he chooses.
"They loved it, they reall did," Akingbulu said. "They saw how excited I was about the school. They support whatever school I go to, especially knowing that each one of these schools, you can check off education on each one of them. They have no complaints."
Akingbulu said that he will likely make his college decision before Signing Day.
"If anything, if I want to wait to January for the UCLA one, I could wait for that, but it could possibly be earlier than that," he said.

With a pop-star-style microphone clipped behind his ear, Stephen Elop takes the stage and gazes out at something he hasn't seen in a while: an adoring crowd. Hamilton's McMaster University is inducting him into the Alumni Gallery, its hall of fame for accomplished graduates. The honour couldn't be more appropriate: Elop, a native of nearby Ancaster and an engineering grad, has ascended through the innovate-or-die technology sector to become CEO of the biggest cellphone manufacturer in the world. But Elop isn't celebrating his laurels here today. Speaking to the crowd, he weaves one hell of a gripping narrative about the future: how he will save Nokia Corp. from total destruction.
Unfortunately, only half the crowd can hear it. At Elop's right, a pair of speakers mounted on poles are refusing to co-operate. Suddenly a young audiovisual technician in shorts careens down the aisle to attack the problem. As another techie climbs up to help the first wrestle with the misbehaving equipment, the bemused elder statesmen of Hamilton academe attempt to focus on the Chosen One's words, now warping in and out of focus as the speakers sputter.
Elop is detailing what ails Nokia, the Espoo, Finland-based handset and wireless networking giant that chalked up $56 billion of sales in 2010 (all currency in U.S. dollars) but is being undermined by competitors both North American and Asian, attacking Nokia from both above and below. When your very operating system is in peril, you are a technology company in a pickle.
Elop himself comes from a software background, having been hired by Nokia last September from the top of the Microsoft food chain. And his boldest move thus far has been to strike an industry-tilting partnership with his former employer. Henceforth, Microsoft's mobile software will run on millions of Nokia's devices—a startling about-face for the Finnish behemoth, which employs thousands of software engineers. At one point during the McMaster session, a student cheekily asks whether Microsoft, having flopped in the mobile space itself, had managed to secrete Elop into Nokia's executive suite in order to save itself. Elop doesn't wait a second: "The Trojan Horse conspiracy theory! Have you been to the Grassy Knoll, sir?"
As he lectures the crowd through the dysfunctional PA, Elop's witticisms are almost made redundant by the live-action metaphor: two technicians struggling with wonky technology. Still, what he's saying is true. With Microsoft as its partner, Nokia is finally ready to dance. The strategy is set, and Nokia's got a lot of heft to put into the effort, not least because the company is desperate. But the easy part, the planning phase, is over. Now Elop's got to deliver. And he doesn't have much time.
Elop was hired because Nokia was in trouble. He knew it, and everyone else in the business knew it, but Elop wanted to make sure Nokia's board knew it, too. "What I was interested in understanding is whether there was a degree of self-awareness of the challenges that were faced—that was really important," he tells me prior to the McMaster speech. "The board of directors clearly had a sense that the world had changed around them, and that the company had to respond aggressively."
In a memo now arguably more famous than its author, the new hire detailed in February what was wrong with the 146-year-old conglomerate. His "burning platform" metaphor compared Nokia to a man standing on a burning oil rig, surrounded by flames and sloshing petrol on himself. He laid out in painfully plain English the problems facing the company. Apple's iPhone came out in 2007, offering a user experience Nokia simply hadn't matched. There were also new Chinese device makers such as ZTE cutting into the hold Nokia's candy bar-shaped talk-and-text units have on hundreds of millions in the developing world.
And then there's Android—the mobile operating system developed by Google and tossed out free to any device maker who wanted it. Companies no one had heard of (like Taiwan's HTC) seized on Android, and so did industry heavyweights like Samsung. Together, they propelled the operating system past Nokia's Symbian platform in number of devices being shipped around the world. For Nokia, a company that produces roughly one-third of all mobile devices sold in many markets around the world (and more than 50% of those sold in the Middle East and Africa), volume is extremely important. What's more, Android isn't a rival handset or manufacturer; it's a rival ecosystem—as disruptive as Apple's iTunes, say, but even more threatening, since it's a platform where multiple competitors can congregate, team up and whack Nokia's market share to pieces by leveraging Google's software brilliance. "We all talk about the exponential adoption curve," Elop says. "This is no exponential curve. It's far more aggressive than that."Report Typo/Error

Ravenna Sisters Plead to Trying to Hire a Hitman To Kill Husband
Two sisters from Ravenna plead No Contest to the charges of trying to hire a hit man. Diane Hart wanted her husband dead and her sister Diane Brill was helping with the plot.
Each woman could be in prison for the rest of her life. The attempted killing never happened because the "hit man" Brill thought she was hiring turned out to be an undercover state Trooper.

Britain may have lost an empire – but not its baggage. Sixty years on so many countries with which we now seek friendly trading relations have historic reasons for suspicion, and their elites usually remember.
Last week, outraged Sikhs discovered that in 1984 Britain had advised the Delhi government before the Indian army's storming of Amritsar's Golden Temple, which resulted in hundreds of deaths. As the foreign secretary, William Hague, defensively pointed out, it was a minor matter and probably of little influence.
This was a post-imperial favour, but it reminded Indians of one of the key events – by unfortunate coincidence also in Amritsar – of their struggle for independence: the butchery in 1919 of up to 1,000 civilians at Jallianwala Bagh on the orders of a reactionary British general, Reginald Dyer. The Amritsar massacre made the repression of Dublin's 1916 Easter Rising look mild, and had similarly radicalising effects.
The romantics back home, brought up on Rudyard Kipling's rose-tinted view of empire, tend to forget that the freedom movements of our former colonies – starting with the Americans back in 1776 – inevitably defined themselves against British rule. Their identity was not to be British.
Far from remembering their colonial governors as wise and altruistic, the necessary political interest of the United States founding fathers, Mahatma Gandhi, Éamon de Valera and Jomo Kenyatta was to blacken Britain. You cannot fight a campaign – even a nonviolent one – without decrying your opponents.
That is what makes some of the recent mistakes of British foreign policy so insensitive. How could Robin Cook, as foreign secretary, have imagined that Britain could have been a welcome mediator between Pakistan and India on Kashmir? This was, after all, the colonial power that had aggravated the divisions of Muslim from Hindu in India, the better to rule both. This was the power that was therefore complicit in Indian eyes in the million deaths that accompanied the bloody partition of British India.
How too can David Cameron really think Britain and India have a "new special relationship"? Indian goods imports from Germany are nearly double those from Britain. And Britain recently lost a big combat aircraft contract to France.
India is important: 1.2 billion people, a middle class of 200 million, 153,000 dollar millionaires and 61 billionaires. Arcelor Mittal steel and Jaguar Landrover are owned by Indians. But Britain imposes strict visa requirements that obstruct service exports from Indian IT companies, and this is one of the biggest hurdles to an EU-India free trade agreement.
India is not yet in the same supergrowth league as China – which, at its current rate, will become the largest economy in the world by 2020. But there is historic baggage here too. I was one of the four ministers who accompanied the prime minister to Bejjing in November 2010, and we stood in the Great Hall of the People as regiments of honour guards wheeled around us. I reflected that, by population, Britain would rank eighth largest of the 33 Chinese provinces.
We continued to wear our poppies ahead of Remembrance Day, even though poppies unfortunately evoke something else in China. The British prosecuted two opium wars in the cause of freedom to export and sell the produce of the East India Company's Bengal factories. On one estimate, the number of Chinese opium addicts increased by more than 100 million during the 40 years after the first opium war. The Chinese remember a "century of humiliation".
The Foreign Office is aware of these global sensitivities, having finally turned up 8,800 secret files that were – cock-up, not conspiracy, we are assured – found in a government facility in breach of the 30-year rule, let alone requests under the Freedom of Information Act and for legal disclosure. Those papers were directly relevant to the shameful manner in which Britain put down Kenya's Mau Mau rebellion and sold out the Chagos islanders over Diego Garcia.
We have been slow to face up to the way others see us, and to develop some humility. Too many British people regard the empire with pride, measuring national success by the extent of past conquest or its present psychological substitute, nuclear destructive power. For India, China and the US, we are influential not because of bombs but our membership of the European Union.
The soft power of ideas is ultimately more persuasive than the gun. The pen is mightier than the sword (though it may be no match for the accountant). The real national achievement is how a small European country with half the population of France, as it was in 1800, came to pioneer prosperity and globalisation.
There is progress. The Imperial Institute in London first became the Commonwealth Institute, and its building is to be reopened this year as the new Design Museum. Our strengths are our language, literature, law, industry, culture, inventiveness, civil society, science, architecture and the arts. They should be the source of pride, just as they can be a source of soft power.
The Americans lost the Vietnam war. But I noticed, on a recent visit there, bestselling Vietnamese translations of books on or by Warren Buffett, Donald Trump and Steve Jobs. The Americans are winning the war that matters. Without a shot being fired.
