Perfect Soft Boiled Eggs
Recipe by Bergy
When I want a soft boiled egg I want the yolk soft and the white firm. The boiling time has a lot to do with your elevation. 5 minutes is perfect for an elevation of 1100 ft (330 meters) if you are nearer sea level decrease the boiling time if at a higher elevation increase the time. I was surprised that there wasn't a recipe for soft boiled eggs posted (just one with saltine crackers) So simple as it may be I am sure there are many that struggle for the perfect boiled egg. Invest in an egg pricker, a little tool that will prick a small hole in the bottom of the egg allowing the air to escape, preventing the egg from cracking as it boils
Top Review by Diana 2
I have just had two of the most PERFECT soft boiled eggs. It's been a very long time. I didn't have an egg pricker, but a safety pin worked just as well. Now I'll be able to enjoy my favourite eggs more often. You're a life saver Bergy. :) Honoured to make this as a "Thank You" for voting for Lawrencetown, Nova Scotia in the 2010 Kraft Hockeyville Competition.

Fantasy High: Part Thirty-Seven
Cambio was in dragon form, sitting on the top of the tower that hid his cavern. The sacrifice would happen soon. The thrill of bloodlust hummed through his veins and made him drunk with the power that he had, and the new power that would soon be his. Nothing could stop him, and by this time tomorrow, every living thing would hail him as supreme ruler. He could already hear the chant: Long Live Cambio!

Envoy's frisking poor diplomacy: Nirupama Rao
Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao said the issue will be taken up with the US Embassy.
New Delhi: India on Friday said the 'pat-down' search of Ambassador Meera Shankar at a US airport was not good public diplomacy and that it was awaiting a report from its embassy in Washington over the incident before it can take up the matter with American authorities.
"We have also asked our embassy in Washington to give us a detailed report on the incident. We haven't as yet received that, but we will be certainly looking at that before we take further action," Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao told reporters here.
Disapproving of the treatment meted out to Shankar, she said, "It wasn't good public diplomacy and we will certainly be speaking with the American embassy here".
Nirupama said the Ministry of External Affairs has already been in touch with the American Embassy on some previous instances though not exactly of the same nature.
"We have an ongoing discussion with them on this and we will take it up," the Foreign Secretary said.
Shankar was pulled from an airport security line on December 4 and patted down by an American security agent in Mississippi despite being told of her diplomatic status.
The incident took place at the Jackson-Evers International Airport where sari-clad Shankar was about to board a flight to Baltimore after attending the Mississippi State University's programme.
Shankar presented her diplomatic papers to officers and was escorted by a Mississippi Development Authority representative and an airport security officer, but witnesses said she was subjected to the hands-on search.
In the past, many prominent Indians, including ministers, have faced some uncomfortable moments at US airports.

text: P2P Model By: 胡飞, 王博,朱晨烨, 陈嘉禄, 韩啸,陈聪. Index • • • • • What's P2P? Difference with other models. History of P2P. Security feature. P2P in use. – – – – Instant messenger Stream media File sharing JXTA What's P2P • P2P is peer-to-peer • When most people hear the term peer-to-peer, the first thing that comes to mind is file sharing. Indeed, P2P has come to be synonymous with both the legal and illegal activities of people sharing copies of music, movies, and software. • Programs like Bit Torrent, eDonkey/eMule, along with many others, are examples of P2P applications. What's P2P • A peer-to-peer (P2P) network is basically a network, the power of which lies in the computers that are connected to it rather than in a central server or anything of the kind. What's P2P • Client-server model: communication and transaction is mediated through a central server. What's P2P • FTP (File Transfer Protocol) The server is the central node in this architecture, housing the majority of the bandwidth and computing power. Depending on how it is configured, it controls how the clients interact. What's P2P • In a P2P model, however, there is no centralized server, but rather an ad hoc network of peers. Each node in the network functions as both client and server simultaneously, resulting in a ever changing, organic system of participants. What's the difference • To use FTP or HTTP download, someone has to upload a file to a central server (or at least, one of the servers), from which you can download it. It means that someone has to pay for using (or buy) a server, and someone has to take constant care of it. • Legalization: someone may find the contents of the server illegal and sue the operator. Even if he looses the trial, the server will have to be offline for some time, anyway. • Bandwidth: if the server becomes too popular, it may turn out that its bandwidth is too low, and some users have to wait in long queues or their downloads are extremely slow. • Modern P2P networks eliminate all those problems. Computers do not connect via a server; they connect directly. This means that you do not need to upload anything anywhere. You just need to tick a folder 'shared'. No one has to pay for using or buying a server. No one has to take care of it. No one can sue the operator of the server because there is no server. There is no bandwidth problem because, again, there is no server. How did it all begin • Normally, the history of P2P is divided in three stages: • Napster. Created by Shawn Fanning in 1999. Napster, unlike modern P2P, used a central server. Because people used to share copyrighted material (obviously violating the copyright laws), Napster got into legal trouble. Finally, it was shut down in 2001. However, the idea remained. • The 2nd generation of P2P is most probably what you are going to deal with. The most important difference between the 1st and the 2nd generation is that the latter is decentralized. It has no central server, the computers connect directly and therefore there is nothing to be shut down even in case copyrighted material was shared. However, such organizations as RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) and MPAA (Motion Picture Association) undertake personal attacks against p2p users. All the most well-known p2p clients, such as eDonkey, Kazaa, iMesh, Shareaza and the like are 2nd generation p2p clients. • The 3rd generation is not yet well settled. Many programs claim to be absolutely anonymous and thus 100% secure. In fact, most of them are not. Anyway, in practice no 3rd generation client has a community big enough to really interest you at the moment. What about security • Legal trouble. This may happen if you share or download copyrighted material. We discourage you from doing that. Organizations such as RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) and MPAA (Motion Picture Association) from time to time sue p2p users for violating copyright laws. Their mistakes (suing people who do not have computers, non-American citizens or even dead people) are usually laughed at in public. However, they have had successes, too. Peer Guardian and the like are used to protect oneself against such actions. The best way, of course, is not to breach the copyright law. • Viruses. Viruses can get you anywhere, and p2p is not an exception. Some programs perform an auto-scan of every downloaded file but most do not. In practice, you will need to run your anti-virus software more often, that is all. P2P In Use • • • • • • • Instant Messenger:QQ, MSN, Yahoo Messenger Data Storage:Farsite,Ocean Store Data Sharing:Bit Torrent,eDonkey/eMule Stream Media:PPLive, PPStream Search:Infrasearch,Pointera Co-Computing:Netbatch Games:some Chess game P2P System Distributed Computing •SETI@hom e •Avbaki, •Entropia File Sharing •Napster •Gnutella •Freenet •Publius •Free Haven CO •Magi •Groove •Jabber Platform •JXTA •.NET •.NETMyServices Instant Messenger P2P Stream Media P2P Stream Media ----shortage of server-client model • Video files too large, buffering during playing. • Too much pressure on server, timeout. • Television is instant, especially for watching sports or live shows. • Limited users online simultaneously. P2P Stream Media ----using p2p model • Make full use of Bandwidth. • The more user online, the better you feel. • It's plays better than c/s model. • Less pressure on the server. P2P Stream Media ----principle Similar to Bit Torrent: -get file from other node -interpret into videos -share the video slice with others P2P In use ---- Bit Torrent •Software for file sharing •When downloading from others, uploading to some others. Bit Torrent ---- How to share • Sharing via HTTP, FTP Bit Torrent ---- How to share • Sharing via BT Bit Torrent ----principle • BT implements sharing via pass. • Download from someone, upload to someone. • Everyone's both client and server. • The more user involved, the higher the speed is. Bit Torrent ----principle (details) • Tracker server – Store client information – Give information about the clients which downloaded the same file. • BT Client – – – – Communicate with Tracker Server during downloading Submit downloading status Get information of others Communicate via HTTP Bit Torrent ----principle (details) cont. • Communication process – – – – – – – – Client send out an http GET request to Tracker. Information of this client in parameter of GET. Tracker keeps info of every client. Tracker writes down client's info when receiving a request. Tracker returns info of clients which downloads the same file to client which send out the request Client receive response from tracker. Client make connection with other clients according to the info it gets from the tracker. Client downloads file slices. Bit Torrent ----principle (details) cont. • Torrent File – Give client info to the Tracker – The content includes: • Location of the publish server • File information (file name, directory name, file size, slice size, verification code of slice) • Sharing efficiently: divide file into slices. Bit Torrent ----advantage & disadvantage • Efficient • Web server in the middle (announce) – Easy to find servers. – Announce goes down, no downloading. EDonkey •P2P Client •Download files •Upload files •Share With Others Advent Of the EDonkey • Napster: The Program to share the mp3 files. • EDonkey: More Excellent Details • More Resource to download – Download files from all the client registered in the EDonkey System. – You should share your files with others as others share their with you. Details (cont.) • Transfer More Quickly – A file can be divided to a, b, c, d; – When A transfer a to B, at the same time, C can download b from D, then B download b from C, thus, A file can be transferred more quickly. Details (cont.) • Search The Resource – Everyone has their IDs on the EDonkey System. – You can search the ID of the client if he has something you need. Accelerate The Sharing • Everyone share with others. – Quantity – Speed – Quality JXTA Concept • JXTATM is a set of open, generalized peer-topeer (P2P) protocols that allow any connected device on the network — from cell phone to PDA, from PC to server— to communicate and collaborate as peers. • The JXTA protocols are independent of any programming language, and multiple implementations (called bindings in JXTA) exist for different environments. Why JXTA ? • One primary goal of JXTA is to provide a platform with the basic functions necessary for a P2P network. In addition, JXTA technology seeks to overcome potential shortcomings in many of the existing P2P systems: • Interoperability — JXTA technology is designed to enable peers providing various P2P services to locate each other and communicate with each other. Why JXTA ? • Platform independence — JXTAtechnology is designed to be independent of programming languages, transport protocols, and deployment platforms. • Ubiquity — JXTA technology is designed to be accessible by any device with a digital heartbeat, not just PCs or a specific deployment platform. What is JXTA ? • The term "JXTA" is short for juxtapose(并置, 并列) • It is a recognition that P2P is juxtaposed to client/server or Web-based computing, which is today's traditional distributed computing model. • The JXTAprotocols are designed to be independent of programming languages, and independent of transport protocols. What is JXTA ? • JXTA provides a common set of open protocols and an open source reference implementation for developing peer- to-peer applications. The JXTA protocols standardize the manner in which peers: – – – – – Discover each other Self-organize into peer groups Advertise and discover network services Communicate with each other Monitor each other JXTA Architecture • The JXTA software architecture is divided into three layers, as shown in JXTA Components • • • • • peer Peer groups advertisement Pipe Bidirectional reliable communication channels (JxtaSocket, and JxtaBiDiPipe) • Messages • Advertisements Key aspects of the JXTA architecture • Three essential aspects of the JXTAarchitecture distinguish it from other distributed network models: – The use of XML documents (advertisements) to describe network resources. – Abstraction of pipes to peers, and peers to endpoints without reliance upon a central naming addressing authority such as DNS. A uniform peer addressing scheme (peer IDs). – JXTA Concepts • Peers A peer is any networked device that implements one or more of the JXTA protocols. Peers can include sensors, phones, and PDAs, as well as PCs, servers, and supercomputers. Each peer operates independently and asynchronously from all other peers, and is uniquely identified by a Peer ID JXTA Concepts • Peer Groups – A peer group is a collection of peers that have agreed upon a common set of services. • Network Services – Peers cooperate and communicate to publish, discover, and invoke network services. Peers can publish multiple services. • Modules – JXTAmodules are an abstraction used to represent any piece of "code" used to implement a behavior in the JXTAworld • Pipes – JXTApeers use pipes to send messages to one another. • Message – A message is an object that is sent between JXTA peers; it is the basic unit of data exchange between peers. There are two representations for messages: XML and binary. JXTA Concepts • Advertisements • All JXTA network resources— such as peers, peer groups, pipes, and services —are represented by an advertisement. Advertisements are languageneutral meta-data structures represented as XML documents. The JXTAprotocols use advertisements to describe and publish the existence of a peer resources.

Every Wednesday and Friday morning during the school year, an entire public school classroom visits 826michigan's writing lab in downtown Ann Arbor for an action-packed two-hour experience filled with surprises and focused on building students' confidence in their writing. We offer many field-trip options: from PJ Day, in which first-graders must band together to write the best bedtime story ever and soothe our cranky publisher Dr. Blotch to sleep to the classic Storytelling and Bookmaking program, where second- and third-grade students write and illustrate their own books in one morning.
While all 826michigan programs are free, including field trips*, field trip scheduling priority is given to 826michigan Partnership Schools. Each spring, our staff selects Partnerships Schools* for the following academic year. Criteria we consider include class sizes, percentage of students on free and reduced lunch, Title I funds, and prior partnerships with 826michigan. At this time, our field trips program is only open to public school classes in southeastern Michigan.
* Field trips are free, but schools must arrange and pay for their own transportation to and from 826michigan.
Registration for 826michigan field trips takes place in late fall.
826michigan schedules field trips directly with teachers. Each teacher may schedule one field trip for his/her class only. Our field trips run Wednesday and Friday mornings from 10am – noon. We offer field trips to second semester first grade students through high school students.
* We are not currently accepting applications for our Partnership School Program.
Each field trip is different, but our goal is to create immersive experiences that instruct students in the mechanics of literacy as they develop a sense that writing can be fun. For more information about 826michigan's field trips, please contact Education Director Catherine Calabro at email@example.com.

On Jan 29, Iran executed Dutch-Iranian citizen Sarah Bahrami in Tehran. The execution was firmly condemned by Foreign Affairs Committee Members of the European Parliament (MEPs).MEPs voted in favor of a resolution on the future European Union relations with Iran. In the resolution, the parliament condemned the lack of consular access to Bahrami as well as the failure of Iranian authorities in ensuring a transparent and fair judicial process.
The resolution drafted by Bastiaan Belder also called on EU Foreign Affairs High Representative Catherine Ashton to raise the cases of Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani and Zahra Bahrami with the Iranian authorities.
Foreign Affairs Committee MEPs agreed that the EU must devise a new, broader, strategy towards Iran, beyond the controversial nuclear program and addressing human rights abuses in the Islamic nation.
The resolution also urged EU foreign ministers to impose sanctions targeting Iranian officials responsible for serious human rights abuses since the 2009 elections in which Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was elected as president.
According to EU data, the number of executions in Iran in 2009 was the highest in the last decade. This data indicates that Iran is the country with the highest number of executions per capita in the world.
The resolution, approved in committee with 62 votes in favor, 3 against and 2 abstentions, is to be put to a plenary vote at the March plenary session in Strasbourg.
The committee also proposed additional sanctions on Iran's nuclear program due to the continuing refusal to co-operate with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) by the Iranian government.

I have a deep love for children. As well as an interest in their well being and their education. I love doing child activites, what ever they may be. And the challenge with the younger age groups makes me strive to learn more about the childs actions. I have a lot of patience. I also have eight neices and nephews that range from 6 months to age 10. So, I have a lot of experience with a range of age groups. Lastly, I just love children and spending time with them. I love their deep imaginations, and I do learn a lot from them and vis versa.

Structural support
Important for collagen production
Vegetarian/vegan formula
L-Proline is an amino acid that is essential for the synthesis of collagen, the most abundant protein in mammals. Collagen is the main structural protein that constitutes all human connective tissues, including skin, tendons, ligaments, joints, bone, and vasculature (veins and arteries). L-Proline therefore provides building blocks that help to stabilize and strengthen the structural components of the body. Although proline can be made in the body, low protein and vegetarian diets may not provide optimal support for the production of collagen. NOW L-Proline Vcaps are 100% vegetarian.

"Hey you paged" Max said walking into the apartment dressed in her normal Jam Pony attire.
He looked up and their eyes connected and more flashes went through his mind from last night, "Uh yea I did." he looked away
"You got my note didn't you?" Max said aggressively.
"Max it's not just the kind of thing we can ignore."
"It is and we can. So end of discussion, did you want anything else?"
He realized they were at a standstill, "You really don't want to talk about this?" he asked
He sighed a breath of relief, that he regretted afterwards for being so obvious about his feelings, "So how about dinner tonight?"
Max shot him a look, then decided she was being too harsh, he was just trying go back to their normal way of life, "Tomorrow?" she said softening up
He smiled, his relief once more showing, they hadn't just screwed everything up "Sounds good, 8?"
Max nodded "I'll see you then"
Dinner was going to be weird, despite their best intentions there was no doubt her mind it was going to be weird. Not only was their first meal after the 'incident' as Max liked to think of it, this was their first dinner with Logan up and fully walking. It should have been a celebration, but those bastards had taken this away from them. Max sighed as she got off her bike, why was the world out to get her?
By the time she knocked on his door she'd turned around 3 times, paused 5 times and had 3 long talks with herself. She wasn't going to let those criminals take Logan away from her, they'd come back from other things, they would come back from this. She just had to suck it up and deal with the crappy aftermath.
"Hey" was all she said as he opened the door dressed in a light blue ribbed sweater and dress pants. She tried to stop herself from admiring him, from thinking of not only what that sweater did to his eyes, but what lay beyond that sweater.
"God you're beautiful" he said almost in awe as he reached her lips after trailing kisses over her body.
She smiled, "You're not too shabby yourself."
She lifted her head off the pillow to recapture his lips. Their hunger for each other growing again rapidly.
'This isn't possible,' she thought to herself as his hand lightly grazed her body causing her to shiver. The satisfaction and relief that had come as they had after their frantic coupling was quickly leaving.
His lips went south again and left hers…Trailing kisses…Slow and tempting kisses.
"Logan" she groaned and he looked up with a devilish twinkle in his eye, his body moved up again, over hers as his lips found hers once more.
"Hey yourself. I picked up a chicken today at the market."
"Ooh lucky" she said putting the memory out of her head and strolling into the apartment.
"I thought so. It should be done soon." He said following her towards the kitchen.
Max noticed the already open wine bottle on the counter and glass of chardonnay resting next to the fridge. She decided to follow his lead and poured herself a glass of wine hoping it would help take the edge off the situation, but she doubted it. They sat in near silence, had a five minute discussion about the weather, and nodded a lot. The ding of the timer caused a sigh of relief in them both.
"Dinner." he said standing, he went to get the chicken, "Oh, no."
Max walked over, and looked into the dish, "Chicken tartare?" The silence and stress had finally been broken and they laughed.
"That's so wrong." he said putting the chicken back into the oven, "Can you get that?" he said as the phone started to ring.
"Yeah. Turn the oven on" her normal wit back.
"Oh" he said as she picked up the phone.
Okay so I'm ending the story here because I liked it just being a funny little story, I'm so glad you guys agreed with me that it was. It became a lot sadder in my mind as I plotted out the rest of the story…So I decided I should just skip that. So I hope you like how this worked out. Just a random little story. Thank you all who reviewed this story…I really appreciated knowing that you enjoyed it.

Science Highlights - Possible Disk Truncation in Ophiuchus Brown Dwarfs
The sensitivity, resolution and the wavelength coverage of ALMA makes it an ideal tool for studying the properties of the cold outer disks of young stars and low mass objects. Such observations can aid us in understanding the formation of their central objects and their likelihood of ultimately hosting planets. In a recent Astronomy & Astrophysics paper, Dr. Testi and his collaborators made use of ALMA Band 7 to observe an unbiased sample of spectroscopically confirmed Ophiuchus brown dwarfs with infrared excesses.

NEW YORK Challenged by a new digital landscape and a tough economy, booksellers are touting a promising fall lineup featuring

There was much talk of e-book reading devices and social networking, with mentions of "the tweetersphere" and "the need to leverage digital connects."
"We're all waiting for the next thing — whatever that is," said novelist
BookReporter.com's Carol Fitzgerald complained that too much attention is going to "devices and formats and digitizing, instead of books and authors, which is what people care about."
But there was plenty of that, at least for the hottest titles touted by Borders, Barnes & Noble and independents:
•Non-fiction: Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan's TheNational Parks, a companion to their PBS series (Sept. 8), Timothy Egan's The Big Burn:

Waking up
I remember standing in a big, open room, view overlooking a magnificent city that I couldn't recognize. There was a well-dressed man sitting stooped at a beautiful mahogany desk. The man was reading some sort of document. It looked like a long contract or a short manuscript. He was skinny... no. Severe. All harsh lines and sharp angles. Tailored black pin-stripe suit with a deep green dress shirt and no tie. His cufflinks were polished silver. They stick out in my mind. One side was a likeness of an hourglass and the other side was a snake eating its own tail.
I don't remember why I was there or how I got there, but I was scared. Not the kind of reasoned, directed anxiety we feel as adults. Not a fear of death or pain or loss. More like the abject terror you feel as a child, sitting in the dark listening to breathing you can't yet identify as your own. I felt like if I looked away from this man for an instant he would be replaced by something horrific. I felt like if I tried to step back I would fall forever. Sitting there, paralyzed, I waited for him to finish. Pages turning at a steady, agonizing pace. Every time his long, thin finger touched paper it sounded like a death rattle. After some time he stopped and looked up at me. Slowly, as though he was moving through syrup. His eyes locked with mine. Green, the most vibrant green I'd ever seen. He smiled, his teeth perfect, his lips thin but flush with color.
"Yes, this will do nicely." My heart lurched, then started trying to pound out of my chest. His voice was a light baritone, it sounded like he was picking his favorite cigar, warm and comfortable, but those words were the rasp of wood on steel as the guillotine falls. I felt like they'd be the last things I'd ever hear. I couldn't help but start to cry. The fear making its best attempt to flee my body in its last seconds, a rat leaping from a sinking ship. He smiled, wide and thin. Genuine in a way that stole the last quivering vestiges of my hope, almost kind. "Shhhh," he whispered to me, the sound clear and sharp despite the distance between us. "It's only a dream."
I woke slowly, agonizingly. Consciousness fought me every step of the way. First there was just a hollow, cold darkness. Then came a sound, breathing and a clicking. Distant but pervasive, as though I were surrounded by asthmatics shaking boxes of cutlery. Movement. The awareness that I was the thing moving and anxiety that I was both moving and unconscious took turns rolling around my head. The act of considering my potential situation must have jump-started something because every nerve in my body flashed alive, all of them screaming their disapproval. Finally my eyes opened. I wished they hadn't. The breathing was mine. The clinking sound was the chains suspending me by my neck and wrists. The pain wracking my body was the skin missing around my abdomen, the torn skin around my wrists, neck and bound ankles, the half scabbed cuts all over my arms, legs and genitals. The broken ribs quickly took on a noted significance and explained why the breathing I heard was so raspy. An image of a shattered rib tearing slowly into a lung flickered through my mind.
The shock of this terrible self-awareness tried to shake a scream from me. It failed. The pain caught me as I was trying to inhale and sent shrapnel through my senses. Worse, it made me cough as the extended dehydration I was experiencing made itself part of the conversation. Nothing could have prepared me for this. I couldn't help but shake as I was grabbed and spun around.
He was rail thin, in a well-tailored suit. Severe. Gleaming cufflinks inches from my face as he held me steady. He smiled, wide and thin. Almost apologetic, like he'd accidentally bumped me in the street. "Shhhh," he said, like he was whispering in my ear. One long, narrow finger pressed against my cracked and bleeding lips. "It's only a dream."
The hospital bed is warm and slightly damp. I've been sweating. I never expected to live forever, but I always hoped I'd go from something more dignified. My family is here. Some cry, most just stand there trying to look aggrieved. I'm not surprised, this is just an unwelcome distraction for many of them. Depressing and awkward, but all in all an inconvenience at best. My life is ending and my family is consumed in thoughts of jobs and social lives. I'm not even disappointed. Just tired. I can't help but understand, I don't want to think of it, why should they?
The man is here. All harsh edges and stark colors. His grin is almost friendly, almost welcoming. They don't see him as he weaves through them to my bed. His cufflinks flash as he caresses me. One ax-like hand on my chest, the other on my forehead. Perfect teeth gleam as he leans in close to kiss my forehead. His lips are cold and soft. Eyes like auroras lock with mine. His smile comes back, somehow both sad and predatory. I remember my fear and wonder at it. How silly it was. So small. So myopic. There is so much more than fear now. "Shhhh", He begs. "Its only a dream".
I wake up.

Day 20: 8/14/08
I'm watching the early races out of the corner of one eye today while writing a column and trying to get back up there tomorrow, but I'll be back around Saratoga Special time to review the Day 20 racing. Four races off the grass again and a heapin' helping of late scratches. The late pick-4 consists of three off-the-turfers and the G2 Special. Scratches:
7th: 1,3,5,6,7,8
8th: 3,4,7,8,11,13
9th: None
10th: 1a,2,4,6,7,9,10,11
In the meantime, did you know where yesterday's Adirondack winner, Mani Bhavan, got her name? Neither did I. Here's what she's named for:
Mani Bhavan is a building in Mumbai (f/k/a Bombay), India, where Mahatma Gandhi lived from 1917 to 1934. It's now a museum open to the public and a memorial to its former resident.
Who says racing isn't educational?
6:00.01 pm:Two minutes to post for the finale at Saratoga according to the Nassau OTB channel and....you know the rest. They couldn't wait another 10 minutes for tonight's very important Italian-language programming: Women at some Tuscan spa having cucumber slices placed on their eyes.
Only three of the eight (#'s 5,8 and 12) in the off-the-turf finale are covered in the pick-6, so there's a carryover if we can get the 1,3,13,14, or 15 home.
It's pouring here on Long Island but looks like they got only one light shower upstate today. Cross your fingers, we might be back on the grass (other than steeplechasing) tomorrow. NYRA must be guessing the worst is over, having carded four grass races for tomorrow's nine-race Lake Placid card and five for Saturday's 10-race Alabama/Sword Dancer festivities.
On the 20th day, I pretty much passed. I never did any serious homework on today's card, and bet only the Saratoga Special, which I qwik-capped(TM) with about six minutes to post. I agreed with the public -- which sent five of the nine entrants off between 5-2 and 6-1 -- that it was a five-horse race. Unfortunately, I keyed Lyin' Heart with the four others, and he was the only member of the quintet not to be part of a $249.60 tri and $939 superfecta. My lowest handle day of the meet by a factor of five.
Hmmm, TVG isn't showing the 10th at Saratoga live because it's up against Del Mar. (And how exactly does having races go off simultaneously at Saratoga and Del Mar help either track or their customers?) If you're playing California, She's a Real Keeper just won the 3rd at even-money.
6:10 pm: Darn. Same deal at Saratoga, with even-money Chicks Are Better($4.60) taking the nightcap and enriching a couple of pick-6 players by $21,654 while depriving the rest of us of a Friday carryover. Congratulations, you two. Killjoys.
6:30 pm: Anyway, back to the Special: Run Away and Hide didn't exactly run to his name, beating Breakwater Edison by a length and a quarter, but the race (1:15.97 for 6.5f) is going to come up a strong one for the first two finishers, who stalked a sharp pace from fourth and third respectively. At the finish, it was another 5 3/4 lengths back from Breakwater Edison to narrow 2.95-1 favorite Reynaldothewizard, who got third by a neck over Join in the Dance, who tired after cutting sharp fractions of 21.66 and 44.80.
Run Away and Hide, a homebred City Zip colt trained by Ronny Werner is now 3-for-3 by a combined seven lengths. He was making his first start since winning the G3 Kentucky (formerly WHAS) Stakes at Churchill May 1. I'm guessing the figure will come up strong enough to crack the current top 5 Beyers by winning 2-year-old males at the meet through yesterday:
97 Charitable Man (Aug. 10, McLaughlin)
92 Precious Package (Aug. 2, Dutrow)
90 Cribnote (July 27, Violette)
90 Munnings (July 26, Pletcher)
87 Capt. Candyman Can (Aug. 13, Wilkes)
Friday: At Attention finished well for 2nd on July 25 despite being wide most of the race. Interesting.
Nine race card today, and ten races tomorrow. Perhaps NYRA is capable of adapting! To the bloggers who complain about races carded for the turf, what do you expect the racing secretary to do? There are simply too many horses on the grounds who are here to race on the turf. If there is an complaint to be lodged, aim your arrows at the grounds crew--why can't we have racing on soft and yielding turf? As an astute blogger pointed out many days ago, the Europeans do not seem to have this problem. e_s
OFF THE TURF AGAIN except the Lake Placid ! Its not even raining here yet ??? Can someone tell me what they are saving the turf for ? There is only 2 weeks left to the meet and I think they have used it 3 times so far . Its just ridiculous. who makes these decisions ?????
All--- Just curious to get your opinions on how "off" turf courses may favor or hurt certain style runners. For example; yielding favors forwardly placed speed types- or firm favors horses with closers and horses with a "nice turn of foot." Thanks
Another awful card today at the spa . This is my worst nightmare coming true that the Spa cards would be as bad as the AQU and BEL meet . I can't really understand it . AS a season clubhouse seat patron I don;t feel so bad that I sold half my seats to this years meet. I will say when you look at DEl and MOM they are running $45,000 races where they used to run $4,000 . That may have alot to do with it. At least the next 3 sat cards look to be great cards . Maybe NYRA really does need slots! It sure needs something . I'd say a complete shake up of power. I too ordered my copy champions .
Steve, FYI: "Champions" and "Bet With The Best-2" were ordered on Monday and arrived in ol' Rio Blanco, VT via UPS on Thursday. Fast, efficient service as always from DRF and DRF Press! At times when I'm late in ordering a special edition I have called John Short at DRF East Coast Circulation and he is always very accomodating. Hats off to Daily Racing Form, you guys run your business like a business by putting the customer first. Started dipping into "Champions"- no dedicated horseplayer/fan should be without it in his/her library, it's a wonderful collection of championship thoroughbred racing history in prose and lifeftime past performances. Just to look at some of the legendary racers' PP's is a treat, to see names of some of the old tracks which no longer exist such as Jam, HdeG, and Hia stirs up images of racing's glory days. Which brings up a related subject: Would like to see a similar, highly detailed treatment of North American racetracks, past and present. Each track would receive 10-20 pages of prose, stories, details of the plant and racing surfaces, legendary owners, trainers, and characters who inhabited the track, and many photos. Another one I would like to see is an in-depth history of the Saratoga track and the Spa racing racing experience by era. Two more titles for DRF Press which I think will be "sure things"!
Race 6 @Saratoga Thursday. An old timer taught some tricks to look for when betting horses. Thurs. one of those paid off. First race off front wraps after two dismal efforts. Killed! Gave the winner to several people in the Travers bar area and I'm still waiting for my drink!
Steve, I still love the smashed TV image, referring to the Cablevision/RAI 6:00 shut-out. I have spoken to an executive at Cablevision, Liz Bracken at NYRA and e-mailed Charlie Hayward about this issue. The Cablevision executive was cognizant about the problem and understood it. However, she would not remedy it because she said " you would not believe how many complaints we get when RAI is delayed." She was right, I don't believe it. However,without any data I certaily couldn't challenge her on it. Liz Bracken was very well informed and genuinely tried to remedy the RAI problem, however, she could not. My e-mail to Charlie Hayward was also to no avail. I suggested that NYRA shave one minute off post for races 2-10. In light of the fact that post-time on a Saturday for the 10th race was 5:45, It seemed to me that a 5:55 post on Weekdays instead of 6:04 was reasonable. Charlie was unwilling to shave one minute off post for races 2-10. Don't get me wrong I am not blaming Chalie Hayward.With handle down, Nyra needs every wagering minute available and I probably would have done the same thing if I was in his position. With war raging in Afganistan, Georgia and Iraq, not being able to view the last race at Saratoga is obviously a small problem. Nevertheless, if TVG was not able to broadcast Saratoga, I wonder if somehow you would have been able to remedy this admittedly small problem.
I know this is "off topic" but I have a question regarding a comment made by a trainer recently that appeared in today's DRF.com. Here is part of the article: Wednesday, Get Funky won his second consecutive stakes in the Green Flash Handicap over five furlongs on turf, beating a field that included 2007 Breeders' Cup Sprint runner-up Idiot Proof. Ridden by Jose Valdivia Jr., Get Funky ($7.40) rallied from fourth in a field of seven to win by a length over Idiot Proof, the 6-5 favorite. Get Funky was timed in 55.39 seconds. The victory left Get Funky on course for the newly created $1 million Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint at Santa Anita on Oct. 25, with an expected start in the Morvich Handicap on Sept. 24. Both the Turf Sprint and Morvich will be run over about 6 1/2 furlongs on the hillside turf course. Get Funky won the 2007 Morvich. Owned by Keith Abrahams of Brentwood, Calif., and trained by John Sadler, Get Funky has won 7 of 16 starts and $604,757. Two years ago, he frequently started in races at a mile or farther, but has been campaigned mostly in sprints this year. "John was always thinking he was a good sprinter," said Abrahams, 48. Sadler considered the Shoemaker Mile at Hollywood Park on May 26, but opted for the Robert Kerlan Memorial Handicap over six furlongs on turf on July 6, which Get Funky won. "We do think he can run a mile," Abrahams said. "We were all set for the Shoemaker and John said, 'I want to sprint.' " Idiot Proof led to early stretch of the Green Flash. "He needed a race," trainer Clifford Sise said. Idiot Proof was making his first start since finishing second in the $2 million Golden Shaheen for sprinters in Dubai on March 29. He will be pointed for a defense of the Ancient Title Breeders' Cup Stakes at Santa Anita on Sept. 27, Sise said. ============================ Steve...what I don't understand is this... What does Clifford Sise mean by saying Idiot Proof "needed a race?" For the life of me (and I'm not being sarcastic and I didn't bet the race) I cannot fathom how a trainer can use such an excuse for a 5 (five) furlong race. Steve (in general or specific terms) what does this mean to a horseplayer when a trainer makes such a statement? It's 5 short furlongs and I really don't get it. If the horse is training and running multiple 5 and 6 furlong workouts for the past 2 months, what is the real problem with "needing a race?"
Another ugly card at the spa.....How many days till Tampa Bay Downs opens??? ...

Personal injury lawyers face a significant reassessment of claims following a landmark Lord's ruling, writes Roger Pearson.
The recent trend for Irish theme pubs will be at the centre of an important licensed industry dispute scheduled for the High Court in October.
Mr Justice Collins gave Philip Cropley, director of leading West Country theme-pub chain, Lionheart Inns, permission to seek judicial review of an Exeter Crown Court decision. The crown court had backed an earlier decision by Teignbridge licensing justices to refuse Cropley a provisional on-licence for an Irish theme pub, Porter Blacks, at the former Liberal Club in Newton Abbott in Devon.
Cropley's counsel, Ian Glen QC, told Judge Collins the premises had been used for years as a social club serving food and alcohol.
According to Glen, when refusing a licence the Teignbridge justices said they were taking into account the physical needs of the area, as opposed to mere convenience, and whether those needs were already met by existing outlets. The local Licensed Victuallers' Association argued that Newton Abbott had plenty of public houses and that nothing new was offered by Porter Blacks.
In seeking judicial review, however, Glen said no new licences had been granted since 1961 although the town's population had risen by 30 per cent. He said the possible closure of rival pubs because of competition was irrelevant and that there was no evidence to suggest this would happen. The justices had acted on assumption rather than evidence, he added.
Glen argued that regeneration of town centres with premises like Porter Blacks could stimulate demand and be good for trade generally. He said theme pubs represented the new breed of public house, built with high investment and featuring high-quality premises with good security.
Lionheart owns 19 licensed premises including several Porter Blacks and Shamus O'Donnells theme bars.
Granting the application to challenge the licence refusals, Judge Collins ordered that the matter be heard as soon as possible after the start of the new legal term in October.

Serves: 4
© Waitrose/Delia Smith
* 50g stem ginger in syrup (4 pieces)
* 75g self-raising flour
* 1 rounded teaspoon ground ginger
* 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
* 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
* 1 large egg
* 40g soft salted butter
* 50g molasses sugar
* 75g bramley apple, peeled and cored
For the ginger wine and brandy sauce:
* 2 tablespoons ginger wine
* 1 tablespoon brandy
* 75g soft dark brown sugar
* 50g salted butter
* 2 pieces of stem ginger, chopped small
You will also need:
* Four 175ml pudding basins, well buttered, and a baking sheet.
* Preheat the oven to 180C, gas mark 4
1. Place the pieces of stem ginger in a mini chopper and turn the motor on for a few seconds. Be careful not to process for too long - the ginger should be chopped small, but not puréed.
2. Sift the flour, spices, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda into a mixing bowl. Then add the egg, butter and sugar. Using an electric hand whisk, whisk everything together gradually, adding 75ml warm water until you have a smooth mixture.
3. Fold the stem ginger into the mixture.
4. Chop the apple in the mini chopper and fold that in too.
5. Divide the mixture between the buttered pudding basins, stand them on a baking sheet and bake in the centre of the oven for 35 minutes, or until they feel firm and springy to the touch.
6. To make the sauce, gently melt together the sugar and butter until all the granules of sugar have completely dissolved. Whisk in the ginger wine and brandy and add the chopped ginger.
7. When the puddings are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them stand for about five minutes, put the sauce back over the heat, then run a small palette knife around the edges of the tins and turn the puddings out onto warmed plates.
8. Spoon the hot ginger wine and brandy sauce all over. Serve with chilled pouring cream.
Note: These puddings can be frozen then defrosted and reheated for eight minutes under a preheated grill with the ginger wine and brandy sauce poured over them but make sure there are no pieces of ginger on the top.

Mike Vick went on the air to talk about how he's now dedicating himself to playing as hard as he can. He is no longer going to worry about injuries and he's going to "leave it all out on the field." He blamed his precautions on trying to protect himself (even though he never learned how to slide, throw the ball away, or get down to avoid a vicious hit) as the reasons the past two seasons he was hurt. I wonder how Mike Vick would explain his 2010 broken rib? I mean if throwing caution to the wind is the way to stat healthy then why did he get hurt then? That's a question I'm sure will be revisited this season when Vick gets hurt.(that's if he beats out Nick Foles or whoever else is on the roster) Mike also mentioned how he's now motivated to get into the best shape of his life. I am guess being one of the highest paid players in football wasn't motivation enough for him. Later when asked about why his production slipped so much Vick went on about not living in the past or making excuses, but he did take the opportunity to take a slight dig at his team mates. I hope Chip Kelly teaches his players to say as little as possible Unlike his predicessor. These guys still don't get how all of their talking causes more trouble in the long run. Of course the Vick riders will come on and defend him and blame everyone else as usual. Good luck lasting the season Mike Vick. You're truly going to need it.

Funding Source:
ACT Health Directorate
This project documented the partnership approach adopted in relation to three projects funded by ACT Health in 2004-2005 under the Strengthening Families measure. The 'Strengthening and Supporting Families Coping with Illicit Drug Use' measure was part of the Council of Australian Government's National Illicit Drug Strategy.
The report was based on consultations held with the four agencies involved (the three funded organisations and ACT Health) and focused on what was been learnt from the partnership approach adopted, to provide a foundation for future work.

UK researchers unveil cheaper chip manufacture method
UK researchers say they have found a cheaper and more energy-efficient way to make computer chips.
This Article Covers

UK researchers say they have found a cheaper and more energy-efficient way to make computer chips.
Engineers at University College London (UCL) have found a way to use ultraviolet (UV) light instead of furnaces to create the silicon dioxide insulation layer on computer chips.
All-Flash: The Essential Guide

The breakthrough could lead to big energy savings for chip makers and ultimately lower prices for customers.
The film of silicon dioxide is an insulating layer and is where electrical circuits are later etched using photolithography.
Chip makers currently bake silicon wafers in furnaces at up to 1,000 degrees centigrade to create the necessary silicon dioxide layer.
UCL engineers have found a way to speed up the dioxide creation at room temperature using UV lamps.
Using this method they say they can create a suitable layer of dioxide in about the same amount of time it takes to blast the silicon in a furnace.
UCL said it could take several years before the technology was ready for commercial use however, as further testing was necessary.
Chip manufacturers have already been in touch with UCL about the process, said the university.

Year Purchased: 2011
About: We have been vacationing in Palm Springs for years and finally decided to buy a place of our own in 2011. Our primary residence is in Chicago, so we love to escape the cold winters and hectic pace of the city to enjoy the warmth and solace of this beautiful desert. Since we are not quite ready to retire, we have decided to let others share our wonderful retreat. Our primary goal is to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable. We have invested a lot of effort into making sure the home is well equipped and furnished. Hopefully, you will find our Deepwell Desert Villa to be a perfect getaway to relax, rejuvenate and share with your family and friends. We look forward to hearing from you!
Why Deepwell Estates, Palm Springs, CA, USA:
We chose to purchase our home in Deepwell for its private and quiet South Palm Springs neighborhood, lush landscaping, mountain views and proximity to the village center of Palm Springs. Within walking distance, a bike ride or a short drive, you'll be close to all the major Palm Springs attractions such as, dozens of golf courses, hiking and biking trails, day spas, Spa Resort Casino, art galleries, museums, boutiques, coffee shops and world class dining. The Deepwell historic neighborhood is a draw for mid-century buffs and home to a long list of Old Hollywood celebrities. Legends such as Elizabeth Taylor, William Holden, Loretta Young, the Gabor Sisters and Liberace had residences here. Our street had inhabitants like Carmen Miranda, Marjorie Mann and Oscar Mayer.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
The most unique aspect of our property is the privacy and beauty of the backyard oasis. Some of our most favorite things to do include, floating aimlessly in the large pool, catching some rays on the sundeck, gazing at the snow capped mountains from the heated spa, sipping cocktails or morning coffee under the covered lanai. You can't go wrong with whatever you decide.

Gabrielle leaned on her mop and propped herself against the shiny yellow wall. A shiver ran down her as her hand caressed her aching back. The pale light filtered through the cloudy window, but it was not nearly enough to warm the thin girl with the mop.
She tilted her head upwards and an image came to mind of the face of a tall man bending over her own, grey eyes full of emotion. She blinked back the image and saw the roof far ahead. The nursery was in the old hall of a parish church whose cold walls had been washed with cheap yellow paint after the war and had never had central heating.
She shivered again and the broom bent under her weight. It was like her, shivering, weak, thin, breaking.
She had been living in poverty for just under a week, and she was cold and hungry just about all the time. Her lodgings were dirty and unheated, and she shared a draughty bathroom with not lock with three other people, all of whom were middle-aged single men she felt more than a little afraid of. She wasn't eating enough, scoffing a few pieces of toast in the mornings when the landlady held breakfast for all her lodgers, of whom there were twelve or so. Gabrielle worked all morning in the pet shop, and all afternoon cleaning toilets at the nursery, and cleaning the houses of a couple of sympathetic housewives who lived next door to the converted church. In the evenings she bought a sandwich and an apple from the corner shop and trudged in the dark back to her lodgings where she huddled in her blankets and stared at the blank pages of her diary, willing herself to write but her numb fingers and numb mind not often succeeding.
She couldn't stop thinking of poor Liljana Cardington, the girl who had been raised in cold and crowding and hunger and loneliness. Gabrielle had never known what it was to live in poverty. Now she knew. But she was brave. She had a plan, and she was determined to carry it out. She would see Dominick again. She had to. But for now, she had to block him from her mind.
So she had lived her days in silence and slowness. She was building up her mind. She needed to begin again in order to bring herself back to life, and so she had to start slowly. She often had conversations as she had had with Grannie's gravestone. But Grannie's gravestone wasn't there. So Gabrielle had conversations with herself.
"What is love?" Gabrielle asked herself, and her words echoed off the forbidding yellow walls and back down her throat, choking her. "They say love has no boundaries, no secrets, no separations. So why am I separated from love?"
"Maybe it isn't love," her voice replied to herself. "Maybe you were mistaken. You felt sympathy. Not love."
"That's not true!" she retorted. "I know what love feels like. I loved Grannie as I loved nobody else. She was my sole friend."
"Friendship and romance are different," said her voice in response. Her voice was cold and discouraging.
Gabrielle felt indignation welling up in her breast, and it gave her new spirit. "Don't you say that to me!" she threatened. "How dare I reply to myself in that way? Such cheek has never been heard before."
"That's not very nice," her voice sounded subdued.
"It's true if ever anything was true. You are a figment of my imagination!" accused Gabrielle heatedly.
"Nothing is true. And if I'm your imagination, how come you don't expire on the spot? You aren't a ghost, are you? Or are you a ghost?"
"I am not a ghost, but this is simply ridiculous. You're trying to win me with your evil little talking skills," said Gabrielle. "Well that fish won't bite. I have no taste for eloquence. I read in a book that eloquence is the worst sin of a politician. Anyone who speaks, for that."
"Eloquence a sin to a talker? And in a book? Aren't you a clever one?" her voice was smooth and sinister.
Gabrielle gave in. She was tired of arguing with herself. "I don't have the energy for this," she said, and the voice evaporated immediately.
But the loneliness returned. And it was even worse than when Grannie had first died. Because Grannie wasn't here anymore. Grannie was far away in a graveyard in a city. But she had died over nine years ago. Her body had rotted into the earth, and fed the plants, and that energy had passed into the food chain and was being passed on forever. Grannie was no longer Grannie. Grannie was a pile of mush left over after the plants had taken all they needed.
Gabrielle took up the mop and continued on her floor.

To add to the woes of Congress, the BJP also wrested five Assembly seats in the bypolls (held from time-to-time from 2008 till June, 2012) which is giving the party leaders sleepless nights even as it aims to make a good show in the 2013 general elections in the state. "Both Chhindwara and Jhabua are Congress strongholds and any defeat in these seats is not a good sign for the Congress which is desperately working on its Mission-2013 to get back to power. The party has remained out of power in the state since 2003," a senior Congress leader told PTI on condition of anonymity.
Ironically, Congress could not win even in places like Jhabua and Chhindwara represented by State Congress president Kantilal Bhuria and high profile Union Minister Kamal Nath, respectively. What has boosted the BJP's confidence all the more is that besides these two, the party also won in the traditional Congress bastions of Mandla and Dhar.
Congress came a poor third even from ward no.12 (Gopal Colony area) where Bhuria resides in Jhabua town. Terming the success in Congress-dominated tribal areas as a victory of BJP's ideology, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan said it was a sign of people's support to the development done by the party over politics of allegations.
"People want development and have voted for it. They are not interested in allegations and counter-allegations," Chouhan said apparently referring to the Congress Party's campaign which targeted the ruling BJP.

"It's been good so far," said Cooke. "We're having a lot of fun and I am getting to meet a lot of different people.
"It's a little different to other events I have been to, because all, but like two guys are committed.
"Those two guys are supposed to announce their decisions during the game.
"There are like 15 guys here committed to Virginia Tech.
"I am not sure how something like that happens."
While Cooke is the lone Mississippi State pledge taking part in the game, he has met a couple of other Mississippians who are on the roster.
"It turns out me and Sammie Epps were on the same flight down here," said Cooke. "We have talked a lot about everything.
"He seems like a real good guy.
"There is an offensive lineman from North Pike (Ethan Frith) who is here and I have met him too."
Cooke reports that while many of his teammates have had to learn a new playbook and learn where to line up under All-Star rules, he has been left mostly to himself.
"I spend a lot of time doing my own thing," said Cooke. "We worked some on field goal protection the other day and this morning we did some kickoff stuff, but it rained. We didn't get to do too much.
"It's all fine with me though. I am just enjoying being down here."
The Mississippi State pledge is eager to finish up his time at Columbia Academy, so that he can join the Bulldogs in the summer.
"I am glad that they won the Egg Bowl and then won the bowl game," said Cooke. "It's exciting to think about the future and the direction of the program.
"I feel like we're going to have some really good teams the next few years."
