'The Biggest Loser' votes Cate Laughlin off of Dolvett Quince's Red Team
By Elizabeth Kwiatkowski, 01/15/2013
The Biggest Loser
Cate Laughlin
during Monday night's NBC broadcast of the reality weight-loss competition's third fourteenth-season episode.
Cate, a 28-year-old student from Ransomville, NY, was eliminated after her Red Team posted the lowest weight-loss percentage at the season's third weekly elimination weigh-in and then cast the majority of their votes to oust her from the ranch.
"I don't want to say bye to anybody yet. All those people that have become my family, this is heartbreaking. The hardest part about leaving is that I just got started figuring things out. [Dolvett Quince], just in this short time, has completely rearranged the furniture in my mind. Being here for these three weeks has taught me that being healthy isn't a chore. It's a gift and I don't think that I can do this at home. I know that I can," Cate said following her elimination.
The third broadcast of
The Biggest Loser
fourteenth season began with host
Alison Sweeney
telling the 12 remaining contestants they'd be participating in a trivia game featuring questions pertaining to childhood obesity. Each question was worth 1,000 points, and the team to earn the least number of points at the end of the game would lost the challenge.
The losing team would be forced to endure the temptation of spending four-and-a-half hours a day in a room full of junk food, video games, TV, and soda for a whole week. The junk room was supposed to represent how many obese children spend the majority of their days at home.
The trivia game came down to a tie-breaker question for both the White Team, which was only left with
Dannielle "Danni" Allen
, a 26-year-old advertising account coordinator from Wheeling, IL, and
Pamela "Pam" Geil
, a 43-year-old executive assistant from New York, NY, and the Blue Team.
In the end, the Blue Team -- which consists of
Alexandra "Alex" Reid
, a 24-year-old legal assistant from Carrolton, TX;
David Jones
, a 51-year-old police officer from Kiefer, OK;
Gina McDonald
, a 47-year-old attorney and law firm owner from Hoover, AL;
Jeff Nichols
, a 24-year-old pharmaceutical representative from Monroe, MI; and
Michael Dorsey
, a 34-year-old college professor and communications consultant from Baltimore, MD -- lost.
In addition to the typically-featured workouts, trainer
Bob Harper
introduced Dr. Joanna Dolgoff, who will be working with the season's three teen contestants for the remainder of the season to improve their health, nutrition and lifestyle.
Last night's episode showed Dr. Dolgoff visiting the homes of
Lindsay Bravo
, a 13-year-old eighth-grader from Fillmore, CA;
Noah "Biingo" Gray
, a 13-year-old eighth-grader from New Windsor, MD; and
Sanjana "Sunny" Chandrasekar
, a 16-year-old eleventh-grader from Rochester, NY. Dr. Dolgoff discussed eating habits with the teens and their families.
As a result of their discussions, Biingo was told he needed to cut down his daily video game playing to only two hours. Sunny learned ways she can incorporate more whole-grain foods into her diet to cut down on her intake of carbohydrates since she's a vegetarian. Lastly, Lindsay discovered she has pre-diabetes, so she was going to need proper nutrition and exercise.
Before leaving, Dr. Dolgoff stocked the teens' houses with healthier choices of food.
The three teams then met with Alison again to participate in the week's challenge. Alison explained that each team would have a giant gumball machine. One at a time, they'd get a gumball and must take it across the giant bubblegum pit to get to the other side. The first team to get 20 gumballs through the pit to the other side would win.
The winning team would receive a year's worth of healthy groceries, including fruits and vegetables, worth over $5,000.
In the end, the Red Team -- which featured Cate;
Francelina Morillo
, a 25-year-old student and store manager from Albany, NY;
Jackson Carter
, a 21-year-old volunteer coordinator for LGBT resource center and movie theater assistant manager from Layton, UT;
Joe Ostaszewski
, a 43-year-old senior sales executive from Williston, FL; and
Lisa Rambo
, a 37-year-old high school special education assistant from Houlton, WI -- won.
Afterward, Bob and his fellow trainers
Jillian Michaels
and Dolvett trained their teams for the week's last chance workout. Jillian struggled with Pam per usual and Bob was forced to work out with his group in the junk food room.
That night, all the contestants arrived for
The Biggest Loser
third fourteenth-season elimination weigh-in.
Alison revealed the losing team to post the lowest weight-loss percentage would deliberate and decide via a vote which of its team members must go home. The players would enter the new voting room to cast their votes one by one, however if the White Team lost, the player with the lowest percentage of weight-loss would automatically be eliminated since there were only two people left.
The players then stepped on the scale one by one to learn their fate and the Bob's Blue Team went first.
Jeff lost 11 pounds, going from 359 pounds to 348 pounds. He was then followed by Alex, who dropped four pounds and went from 225 pounds to 221 pounds, David, who shed six pounds and went from 278 pounds to 272 pounds, Michael, who lost 13 pounds and went from 409 pounds to 396 pounds, and Gina, who dropped eight pounds and went from 223 pounds to 215 pounds.
Combined, the Blue Team lost 42 pounds -- giving them a total weight-loss percentage of 2.81%.
Dolvett's Red Team members weighed-in next. Francelina was the first member to step on the scale and dropped five pounds, going from 242 pounds to 237 pounds. She was then followed by Joe, who lost nine pounds and went from 326 pounds to 317 pounds, Jackson, who lost two pounds and declined from 302 pounds to 300 pounds, Cate, who also shed two pounds and went from 220 pounds to 218 pounds, and Lisa, who also only lost two pounds and went from 225 pounds to 223 pounds.
Together, the Red Team only lost 20 pounds -- giving them a total weight-loss percentage of 1.52%. The players were very disappointed in the week's results, but Dolvett promised the numbers were not representative of how much work was put in. He gave his team motivation to "keep fighting" because he truly believed they were doing great.
Jillian's White Team was the last team to weight-in.
Danni dropped six pounds and went from 234 pounds to 228 pounds, while Pam lost nine pounds and went from 219 pounds to 210 pounds. Combined, the White Team lost 15 pounds and posted a total weight-loss percentage of 3.31%.
Alison then declared the Red Team the losing team at the weigh-in. Each member of that team then had to cast his or her vote for whom should be eliminated from
The Biggest Loser
. However, they could not vote for Joe because he had posted the highest weight-loss percentage in the group. In event of a tie, the other teams would enter the room and determine whom to eliminate.
Cate voted for Jackson, Jackson voted for Lisa, Francelina voted for Cate, Joe voted for Cate, and Lisa voted for Cate. With three votes, Cate was sent home.
In a post-elimination update, Cate -- who started
The Biggest Loser
weighing 237 pounds -- said she currently weighs 196 pounds. She's beginning to run marathons and started a "fit Tuesday" ritual rather than her previous "fat Tuesdays" tradition.

Spirits of the British Isles that distorted conversations and overhead everything that was said. One story tells of a Welsh King Lludd who travelled across the English channel to talk to his brother King Llefelys of France. When their boats met they spoke thorough horns but the Coranyeidd hid in the horn and changed the sounds so that the brother only heard insults. Llefelys purged the spirits out of his horn by pouring wine into it. He then advised his brother to pour crushed insects into the British water supply to rid the land of the Coranyeidd.

SNOOKER : Mark Selby has welcomed the prospect of a Barry Hearn-led snooker revolution after claiming the top players are in danger of becoming "part-time" sportsmen.
Mark Selby has welcomed the prospect of a Barry Hearn-led snooker revolution after claiming the top players are in danger of becoming "part-time" sportsmen.
Selby, runner-up at the 2007 World Championship, claims the current snooker calendar is "a farce" and has questioned whether the right people are running the sport. Sir Rodney Walker will stand to be re-elected as chairman of the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association on Wednesday, but promoter Hearn has emerged as an alternative leader of the sport.
"If someone like Barry Hearn was to come in, that could be what turns around our sport," said Selby. "Hearn would not be seen as a risk as he has proven before what he is capable of. You only have to look at the darts to see what a difference he can make."
Shaun Murphy has also backed Hearn to guide snooker in the direction of professional darts, which plays to packed venues and has brought growing rewards for players.
Selby, 26, welcomed plans for a new World Snooker Tour, but expressed dismay that only half a dozen ranking tournaments remain on the calendar this season.
He said: "The fact that we've got only six ranking tournaments this season is a farce. There is too much of a gap between each event – it's been six weeks since the last tournament!
"We are classed as professionals but, really, we are hardly more than part-time. The gap is so big we could get another job in between tournaments."
Writing on his blog at markselby.info, Selby added: "You look at a sport like darts and that is still surviving during these hard times, so why isn't snooker? Why are we losing tournaments? Why are we down to just six this season?
"Maybe the people behind the scenes are just not working out, so maybe it is time for a change of key personnel, a breath of fresh air.
"I really do hope these proposals come off, because it would undoubtedly be good for snooker and for the players. The game certainly cannot get any worse than it is at the moment."

Helen Lewis (journalist)
|Helen Lewis
|1983 (age 33–34)
|Other names
|Helen Lewis-Hasteley
|Alma mater
|Journalist, editor
Helen Lewis (briefly known as Helen Lewis-Hasteley, born 1983) is an English journalist who is the Deputy Editor of the New Statesman.[1] She has also written for The Guardian,[2] and has worked as a sub-editor for the Daily Mail.
Life and career[edit]
Lewis read English at St Peter's College, Oxford, and after graduating, gained a Post-Graduate Diploma in Newspaper Journalism from London's City University. Subsequently, she was accepted on the Daily Mail's programme for trainee sub-editors, working in the job for a few years, and later was part of the team responsible for commissioning features for the newspaper.
For five years,[3] from August 2006,[4] Lewis ran a networking scheme, open to all young journalists, called Schmooze and Booze, for which she organised events held in a Central London pub every other month.[3] Lewis commented in 2007 that older colleagues, who had worked with each other for quite a long time, all seemed to know each other, while her contemporaries did not.[5]
Lewis was appointed as Deputy Editor of the New Statesman in May 2012,[6] after becoming Assistant Editor in 2010.[7] She is married to the journalist Jonathan Haynes.[8]
Lewis's law[edit]
Lewis's law is an eponymous law taken from her observation that "the comments on any article about feminism justify feminism". Lewis first made the observation on Twitter on 9 August 2012,[9] and it was quoted afterwards in Wired UK[10] as part of a piece on the Donglegate incident, in which an engineer and a self-styled "developer evangelist" were fired after the latter accused two engineers sitting behind her of making sexual jokes at PyCon 2013.

When we say some number of things equals another, we often glide over differences
We often use the term "equals" very loosely. "Her matter load is equal to his." "Our paralegals-per-billion-of revenue is equal to the median for our industry." In my column Morrison on Metrics: "Lies told by the equals sign," I point out that "equal" rarely means what we think when we collect law department metrics. It was published on March 9, 2012 and you can click here to see the full discussion.

Horticulture/Chemical Controls for Plant Pathogens
From Wikibooks, open books for an open world
Many chemicals have been developed for the control of plant pathogens. The majority are fungicides, though antibiotics are also used for bacterial diseases. There are no chemicals for controlling viruses and viroids.
Many of these chemicals are permitted in organic agriculture and accepted in organic horticulture.

In this workshop you will learn how to bake Baguettes, Egg bread, Pan Bread, Whole Wheat Bread, Multigrain bread and Rye Bread.
Starting days: ‖ September 21st ‖ October 5th ‖ November 16th ‖ December 7th ‖
• Artisan II: Baking Sourdough, Levain, and Wild Yeast:
Artisans II builds on the skills learned in Artisan I. Study the intricacies of sourdough and learn how various starters and fermentation techniques affect flavor and appearance.
In this workshop you will learn how to bake Sourdough, San Francisco Sourdough, Sourdough Whole Wheat Bread, Sourdough Rye, Sourdough Multigrain, Sesame Semolina, Ciabatta, Sourdough with Walnuts and Raisins, Olive Bread, Challah, Baguettes.
Starting day: December 14th
• Advanced Bread: Think out of the bread box. This course challenges traditional assumptions and explores innovative bread-making techniques. - Taught by Didier Rosada - June 13th, 2016
• German Bread: German breads appeals to those who seek interesting breads with pronounced flavors and textures such as Wheat Bread Rolls, Muesli Rolls, Multigrain Rolls, Onion/Bacon Rolls, Pretzels, Christmas stollen, Apple cake, Crumble cake and more...
Offered only once a year. 5-day workshop: October 19th
• Whole Grain, Ancient Grains, and Alternative Wheat: Satisfy the demand from your customers (and your own) for healthier, tastier bread. There is a growing awareness on the difficulty in digesting gluten for some consumers. Using alternative wheat such as Kamut® and spelt, as well as incorporating processes like sprouting and long fermentation will increase the digestibility of the grains and bread. In this course, students will make bread by integrating those techniques with whole grains, which make them more nutritious and easy to digest, and best of all, visually appealing and flavorful.
During this intensive, hands-on workshop, technical characteristics of specialty flours such as Kamut®, spelt, brown teff, and quinoa will be covered, as well as how to work with more accessible flours like whole wheat and dark rye. Students will be exposed to different types of preferments made with whole grain flours and precautions to take when using them. Some grains will be freshly milled on site, and some are sprouted to be added to various loaves.
This is more advanced class and is not designed for beginning bakers. Enrolling students need to have extensive experience in baking and a thorough understanding of the baking process, or they need to have taken two of our foundational bread classes, Systematic Approach to Bread, and Baking Sourdough, Levain, and Wild Yeast. To maximize the learning experience in this course, students should have knowledge on ingredient functionalities in bread, fundamentals of mixing and fermentation, as well as the concept of sourdough and how to perpetuate a starter.
Starting day: November 9th

I'm not sure now many different X-Slim notebooks that MSI can keep track of, but add another one to the list today. The X430 is the latest thin-and-light from MSI weighing in at 3.3 pounds — not bad for a notebook with a 14″ display. At that size, I think it could stand a higher resolution than 1366 x 768, but all the cool kids seem to be running that res nowadays. Unlike many other notebooks in this space, MSI opted for AMD's second generation Neo platform that uses up to 18W of juice in lieu of the Intel CULV (s intc) package. The dual core AMD Athlon Neo X2 (s amd) is paired with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD3200 graphics chip which shares memory from the included 2 GB RAM module.
Other goodies include:
- Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
- 1.3 megapixel webcam
- Stereo speakers
- Ethernet port, Bluetooth (optional), 802.11 b/g/n
- 320 GB or 500 GB hard drive
- 1 x HDMI, 2 x USB, 2-in-1 card reader
- 4 or 8 cell battery
No word on price or availability just yet, but I'd hazard a guess of around $700 street price when it becomes available.

Star beings relational distance to our Mother Earth is that of cousins. In the context of our solar system they are Mother Earth's, and therefore our, cousins
Star Beings twinkle silently into our view every night without fail in our heavenly cosmos. On a clear cloudless night we first see the brightest of the stars. On a yearly schedule we can see shooting meteor shows and then, there are true supersonic shooting stars, like this. Click the arrowhead inside the screen below and watch.
Revealed to our naked eye is a glittering spectacle of other worlds that throb steadily from east to west as Mother Earth spins endlessly along her given path around our GrandFather Sun.
It's great to just watch of course. Then…it's easy to see our Star Being's clusters of families and patterns that make up their own universes' and galaxy's.
Getting started to watch what we can see of our heavens is a simple, exciting and safe hobby and past time. After awhile don't be in the least bit surprised if you just 'happen' to find yourself in search of:
It's fun to meet other interesting (Cos)Mos-Geeks! Just remember to be safe and trust your instincts!
But really, we don't need any equipment at all to watch our hourly changing night sky. We can feast our eyes on their wondrous beauty and magic regardless. And then, their constant presence tickles our imaginings even during our turn in GrandFather Sun's blessing of gentle life-supporting daylight as we take our intention to our humble, daily lives.
Night and day have their own creatures and style of universal Life-magic. So, just cause we can't see them during the day doesn't mean our star cousins go away. Our universal family of Star Beings have always been and continue to be fully active, doing their own dance of Life!
During these star show-times and on a clear night from anywhere on Mother Earth our interest is peaked to the max to watch our star cousins galactic shows. This little gadget really helps:
Our month of August is a good time cause our kids (and grandkids) are home from school.
It's possible to spark and tickle our young ones interest with encouragement and guidance. How so? If it's your first time to dream on star-gazing, how about a couple of age-appropriate books?
Well, first off, if you're planning on watching our heavens from a mountaintop, have a guard dog. You just never know what lurks in the dark. Besides a guard dog, bring a trusted friend.
Safety aside, when I'm not far from home, I like to be able to both sit for a spell then lie down, that's way more comfy for my achy bones. Lying down on an air mattress or even an old couch is good. Ah yes... Up this way on Mother Earth, it get's cool and damp outside right after GrandFather Sun leaves. I like a warm jacket, a light sweater and even a small pillow or two nearby. I also like a big thermos of piping hot herbal tea. Other folks like snacks of fruits, cut-up veggies, etc., that they pack up in a camp ice-chest. You know to keep the lid closed tight and to snack in your car so hungry wild four-legged's (animals) don't race you for your food, right?
Most times though as we watch, we vacillate between quiet and then chatting each others up real good. It's a natural ebb and flow.
As I watch our Star Being's galactic exhibition my thoughts are tickled into awareness that we two-legged's are shown and taught all over, again and again, night after night, that our greatest works and understandings are miniscule in the midst of our cosmos.
In Native American ceremonial teachings this awareness of unending vastness to other worlds is referred to as our 'Universal Mystery.'
Thank you Star Beings for
Sparking two-legged's to spiritual universal awarenessFor dreaming us awake to other galaxiesFor your teachings to bring us two-legged's (humans) to conscience
For dreaming us awake to other galaxies
For your teachings to bring us two-legged's (humans) to conscience
Here's a few interesting Native American Cosmology and Hopi book titles for you. When a book title commands your interest, place your computer mouse at the bottom center at that image (and for others too) and the item, customer review, and price will come up for you.

GE Dryer venting issues
1 Attachment(s)
Hi There.
I have a dryer that has been in place for a year now, but I actually want to vent it correctly as opposed to having a long, flexible vent stretch from the back and squeeze over top and to the left side where it can vent to the outside (it's ugly)
However, I have an issue in that the typical side vent (it is a GE vent that has a pop out side vent on the left rear) has a 10" wall that will make it difficult. Instead, I would like to cut a place on the left side (closer to the middle left) so that the vent can directly be there to be directed out.
Questions I have:
1) Can I do this easily?
2) How can I do this to make a perfect circle? I know there are those metal cutters, but I've never used these - should I use a drill?
3) If I have to cut the metal cylindrical ducts, should I use a saw of some kind or the metal cutters?
I have attached a picture to give you an idea of my situation.
If the dryer does not have "factory knockouts" in the sides for this, then side venting is probably not an option because of the mechanical layout inside of the case. This is usually more of an issue on gas dryers than electric, where the gas piping and hot air plenum design often limits vent options to rear or only one side. Check the installation manuel for options on your model (usually viewable on line if you don't have it). If it has a side knockout as your sketch seems to indicate, I doubt if you could bring the exit hole that far farward without interference from some internal component. As for cutting the hole, tape the area off with duct tape to protect the finsh, and use a jig saw with a metal cutting blade, or a four inch hole saw (harder to control). Since this machine is only a year old, keep in mind that doing this will instantly void any remaining warranty, whether the problem is a result of your modification or not (factories just love free easy out excuses)
non-descriptive manual
I have the original manual (I probably should've said) but all they say is a mini-blurb about punching out the perforated hole in the side and running venting to it - although they have 3 or 4 diagrams, they totally make no sense to me even though I look over them several times! They are written not to educate at all!
Anyways, thanks for your suggestion. My drawing actually only needs me to move the hole maybe 5-6 inches from the perforated spot...I may take the risk.
I suggest that you take a panel Off,+ LOOK before you start cutting..........
There is a definite reason for the hole being where it is and I am sure it has to do with the mechanics of the dryer.

Last week, Twitpic changed its terms of service to state that on signing, you grant it a "worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicenseable and transferable license" to your content, and a lot of people are not happy.
The change in the terms of service took place on 4 May, though as a result of negative feedback around the blogosphere, Twitpic updated them again yesterday and posted a blog to explain its side of the story. The update however has not appeased those upset at the change, particularly photographers who feel the change will lead to images they upload being used without their permission. Under the copyright section of the Terms of Service, Twitpic says users "retain all ownership rights to Content uploaded to Twitpic," however it goes on to say that it will also be able to "use, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works" from your images. Some photographers believe this will give Twitpic the freedom to sell and licence their, and general users' images to whoever it wants without asking you.
Twitpic's response yesterday was to issue an apology regarding the confusion it said the change in terms of service caused. It added that it updated the terms yesterday to make them clearer but the offending sentences still remain. Twitpic said the reason it updated the terms of service was down to the use of content without permission by news outlets. "This has been done to protect your content from organizations who have in the past taken content without permission. As recently as last month, a Twitpic user uploaded newsworthy images of an incident on a plane, and many commercial entities took the image from Twitpic and used it without the user's permission."
While Twitpic says users retain the copyright of their images, many people will still be worried about the granting to Twitpic's of a royalty-free, sublicenseable and transferable licence.

Ask a Lawyer and Get Answers to Your Legal Questions
Hello and thank you for contacting us. This is Dwayne B. and I'm an expert here and looking forward to assisting you today. If at any point any of my answers aren't clear please don't hesitate to ask for clarification.
What kind of case was it and who made the claim he was "legally blind"?
Trip and very bad fall over broken concrete front landing of store 2 yrs. ago.
Had trip and very bad fall (9 wks learning to walk again) over broken concrete
The defense can say about anything but they certainly should have had some kind of medical evidence to support the claim "legally blind" since that is a specific term.
Why answer has to be so short?
With SS definitions etc he chooses to ignore. Macular had just been diagnosed. I walk fine, drive till
It doesn't have to be, if you have additional questions feel free to ask them.
SS definitions don't necessarily apply since their terms have a very specific meaning to their area.
8Pm, and generally only wear glass (corrected to 20/60 for driving. Read fine
For example, their definition of disabled is different than the definition used by Workers Comp which is different than the definition used by insurance companies.
with good light and no glasses. Do everything myself. Have never been declared
"legally blind."
Did they have a medical expert or anyone else testify at trial that you were "legally blind"?
My Retina Specialist told me he just answered their questions.
I will talk to him.
Were you there at the trial?
Trial will probably be Nov.
What court trial were you talking about in your initial question?
I'm so angry - what did I say?
should have said Defense is saying to my attorney.
You said "In a court trial, plaintiff had one bad eye, other 20/60 corrected. Only wore glasses for driving. Defense claim plaintiff "legally blind." Never claimed on S.S. or any other records. Defense can say anything?"
Just because the defense attorney is saying ti doesn't mean that it will be admissible or even that it will make any difference.
At trial that is.

It didnt really go any better today i tried briefly to start it up and get it up to speed but it really ran like crap, would barely get up to 2k and then started the backfiring through the carb crap again so i shut it back down right away. now is where i feel stupid... I went to check the rotor again and when i lifted the cap i found out that one of the contacts had slipped off the wire in the cap end of the plug wire, so then i started taking a real close look at all the plug wires and saw that the wire seperators i used had actually cut the outer sleeve of some of the wires, so i am hoping that is the issue, that some wires were loose and had some cuts in them so they were arcing
By what you've described I do not believe you are 180 out. Cut insulators, etc. as you describe sure could do it.
Be sure that #5 and #7 wires are correct at the cap and down at the head. The two are next to each other on the distributor cap and at the plugs so swapping them is easy to do- I have done it myself. The engine WILL run this way- but it'll be running like

About this book
Dane County Place-Names is an entertaining record of the heritage of Dane County, Wisconsin's capital region, from its earliest days through the 1940s. This classic work by the late lexicographer Frederic G. Cassidy is back in print for new generations to enjoy. Cassidy applied his insightful eye to the origins and evolution of local names that reveal a colorful history: Whiskey Creek, Brag Hollow, Marxville, Pancake Valley, Halunkenburg, Skunk Hollow, and Tipple School. This edition features a new introduction by local historian Tracy Will and a foreword by Isthmus journalist David Medaris.

Australian Bird Names, A Complete Guide
However the first 'official' use ofit as first-choice name is in the Index ofAustralian Bird Names (CSIRO 1969). ... known in ornithological circles until 1969; Swan Goose, recorded by Morris (1898) but hard to find otherwise in print, so presumably mostly a folk name. ... 'Shelduck' is from the now obsolete English word sheld, meaning pied (the European species of Tadorna is primarily black and white).
About this book
Australian Bird Names is aimed at anyone with an interest in birds, words, or the history of Australian biology and bird-watching. It discusses common and scientific names of every Australian bird, to tease out the meanings, which may be useful, useless or downright misleading! The authors examine every species: its often many-and-varied common names, its full scientific name, with derivation, translation and a guide to pronunciation. Stories behind the name are included, as well as relevant aspects of biology, conservation and history. Original descriptions, translated by the authors, have been sourced for many species. As well as being a book about names this is a book about the history of ever-developing understandings of birds, about the people who contributed and, most of all, about the birds themselves.

text: Just received the information that Orange county (Orlando primarily) home break-ins are up 20% over last year, so far. What is more disturbing is that the break-ins are not affected by the owners being home. And get this, the prime time for break-ins is between 10AM and 2PM. Makes you want to rethink your home carry / defense policy.

At 6-foot-6 with big time athleticism and the ability to play inside and out, Iwundu brings great versatility to the Kansas State program, and he felt that fit with what the Wildcats are looking for.
"He went ahead and committed to Coach Weber and Coach Alvin Brooks tonight," said Iwundu's older brother Chris. "He wanted to go ahead and make it official, so he told them over the phone."
He continued, "I think it was the style of play and the opportunity to play in the Big XII. Coach Weber did a really good job in expressing the interest in having Wesley join their program."
It was a tough battle for the Wildcats against SMU, but in the end Kansas State won out.
"It was fairly tight between SMU and Kansas State, but the official visit pushed him over the top and I think that just made him feel more comfortable with Kansas State.
Iwundu is a three-star prospect and he now joins Alex Etherington and Marcus Foster in their 2013 class.

Sorry, you guys are right
You guys are right. Sorry about my mis-information. It is a 3.0 ltr engine. And I did read the wrong number for the price of the package, I was looking at the ZCP for the M3. Sorry
But you can say what you want, I am not a salesman. I actually really hate selling cars, but its the only way to get rid of the old car without getting ripped off by dealers.
I just got in a flow when writing it and I guess it does sound kinda sales pitchy doesnt it? Well Im a private seller living in Chino Hills and I work at Harkins Theatres, my phone number is listed there and it is my car, Im not selling it for anyone else.
And finally, you will be amazed at how well this transmission works. It is actually pretty fast at shifting. Of course it will never match up to a manual, but as far as autos go, its definetly the best next to Merc's trans. Comfortable, but very capable as a sport transmission.
And the original owner did purchase the extended warranty. It really does have the 100,000 mile/sept 2010 warranty. I just found this out like a month ago. I thought once I hit the 50k mark it was over, so I went to my personal mechanic for a while. But I had to take it to the dealer a month ago and the guy handed me my receipt with a $0.00 amount and I was like "wtf!" and he told me it had the extended warranty. Very good news indeed.
Thanks for all the info and Ill correct it when I can

I just finished six months as a lead pastor at West Park Church in London, Ontario and I'm thoroughly enjoying my time here at a great church. This summer also marks 34 years in ministry that has included my role as singles pastor, discipleship pastor, associate pastor, teaching pastor, church planter, and lead pastor. Although I've earned two seminary degrees and I appreciate what I learned in seminary, I've learned many key lessons that seminary never taught me. I wish I had known these 5 key lessons when I began ministry.
- Silence from your team does not mean they agree with you.
- Early on when I'd lead either staff, board, or volunteer meetings I tried very hard to sell ideas I was excited about. I would often present the idea in such a way that hindered honest input from the team. I'd enthusiastically share the idea, ask if their were any questions, and when none came I assumed everybody agreed. I learned the hard way that silence often did not mean they agreed with my idea. Rather, the team was simply reluctant to share their concerns. Only later would I find out that the idea was not a good one and lacked support. My overbearing "sell job" actually stifled feedback I needed to hear.
- Collaboration will get you further down the road.
- This insight stands as a close cousin to number 1. I once thought that to prove my leadership mettle, I had to originate all major ministry initiatives and ideas. If someone suggested an idea, although I may have appeared to listen to them, mentally I would often dismiss their idea if it didn't jibe with mine. Why? Because it didn't originate with me. I've since learned that if I use a collaborative process to determine vision and major objectives, I got more buy-in and in the long run make greater progress.
- You probably can't over-communicate.
- Most people in our churches don't spend the hours we do in thinking about church ministry. Because we spend so much more time thinking on these issues, I often fell into a subconscious trap assuming that if I felt I was over communicating about something, others must feel the same way. I've learned since that it's almost impossible to over-communicate issues like vision, values, and core strategies. Although we created banners, book marks, and cool graphics to communicate our church's current theme (Unified yet Unique), when I asked our church this past Sunday to quote that simple phrase, few could repeat it. That experience reminded me that although I thought I had communicated it effectively, I still needed to communicate it even more.
- Others mirror a leader's emotional temperature.
- The term for mirroring another's response is called emotional contagion. Teams actually 'catch' the emotional state of their leaders. Early in ministry I felt that I had the leadership right to get angry, pout, or emotionally cut myself off from others if things didn't go well. It was being authentic, or so I thought. While not discounting the importance of authenticity, I've learned that I must bring a positive and hopeful tone into the office each day. When I experience something painful and it's appropriate to share it, say in a staff meeting, that sharing builds trust. But if I regularly bring negative emotions into the office, I set up a tone that others often catch and mirror, even though that emotion may have nothing to do with their circumstances. Such negative emotions can hinder a team's effectiveness.
- Less is more.
- I'll never forget my first elder's meeting almost 30 years ago. I had started a church in the Atlanta, GA area and we had just elected our first slate of elders. I planned the agenda for the first meeting. It was three pages long. I am not kidding. I actually still have memory traces of me racing through the agenda at a breakneck speed so we could check off all the items. The meeting was a flop. I've learned that less is more applies not only to meeting agendas but also to sermon prep as well. People in general absorb a few key ideas (or idea) much better than when we use the proverbial firehose approach.
What key lessons in your ministry do you wish you had known when you started?
INVITATION to a LEADERSHIP EVENT: Today, June 10 (2014), at 11 am PDT/2pm EDT I am privileged to join Brian Dodd and Greg Atkinson in a live broadcast on leadership. We'll be talking about innovative leadership, avoiding people pleasing, and indispensable practices to help you grow. Here's the link if you'd like to join us.

Well, as the boys mentioned, the three of us took our annual excursion to see the V-E-T today, Dr. Carlson isn't all that bad, but the car ride is no fun.
Momma worries about my weight, I'm a full-figured gal (14.2 pounds, Dr. C. said I found the .2 Mork lost), but Dr. Carlson hasn't told Momma to put me on a diet, so, that's a good thing.
That's what mommy is telling me anyway. I don't know what she means though. I may be quiet and reserved, but I've always known that I'm a star.
Mommy's happy that I finally got posted on SOMC, she has sent pictures of all us kitties, but I got posted first.
http://www.stuffonmycat.com/Clothes-On-My-Cat/2009 0927-mindy.html
Off for some good snacking to celebrate.
I'm so happy to know that my drooling is totally normal. I've been a little embarrassed when mommy types about it here, but she recently read this neat book by a vet that says that some kitties drool when happy. I'm so happy that I'm "normal" that I'm drooling...
I get a little dribbly on the chin when I'm in snuggle mode, I don't do it often, so mommy knows that snuggling and drooling means happy girl.
Mommy added pictures to Sir Ian's page recently, I haven't let her get any really cute ones of me lately, but maybe this weekend, she'll be home for a couple of days. I've been sleeping next to Sir Ian's pen (or as he calls it "apartment"). Mommy is hoping that we all keep getting on a little better every day.
Purrs to all my friends. We don't get a lot of time on here recently. Headbonks to Jet & his family ~ I miss my special friend.

Words and fashion are like two peas in a pod. From the legions of bloggers, the shelves full of magazines and the reams of Twitter feeds emitting from the front row at fashion week — or every time Kate Middleton steps out in a new outfit — there are literally thousands of outlets dedicated to the discussion and documentation of the industry. Without this relentless dedication to spreading the word of the style cause, the whole kit and caboodle would surely be doomed. For years, the written word has paid homage to the world of fashion — and now fashion is returning the favour.
Season after season, style pundits make it their mission to decode the will of the designers, seeking to read between the lines of each snip, fold and fabric to fathom a garment's hidden agenda. But this time deciphering the catwalks should be markedly easier, as many designers have looked to the building blocks of language when penning their new collections — and the alphabet has provided the inspiration for some of fashion's biggest names.
At the autumn/winter shows, Mary Katrantzou took a nostalgic turn down the route of the written word by incorporating an Olivetti Lettera 35 typewriter into her graphic prints, all of which were forged from commonplace objects. Alongside skirts printed with tablespoons and column dresses decorated with hedgerows, the show featured an entire outfit printed with oversized typewriter keys, while one show-stopping dress used the frame of the pillar-box red vintage model to structure the neckline and lines of letters on the peplum waist. Versace also took the lead from literature in its dark and gothic collection. The heavily religious iconography in the label's next season offering included biblical block capitals stamped onto vampish minidresses and oversized clutch bags, alongside Byzantine crosses and inky crystals.
Championing a more playful take on the trend, Stella McCartney's Autumn 12 collection included elaborate calligraphy and crested initials in pretty pastel shades creating a fusion of clean, modern cuts with classic country manor heritage fonts.
But it's not just the catwalks adopting the written word. Vintage-inspired jewellery designer Lenora Dame boasts a series of literary trinkets featuring Scrabble board pieces, while typography enthusiast Alphabet Bags has teamed up with illustrator Rob Ryan to create 26 cotton tote bags that are definitely too good just to carry your shopping.
Add an intellectual touch to your wardrobe with the addition of a chiffon letter scarf from Dorothy Perkins or customise your own item with A-Z floral fabric transfers from Liberty.
People say fashion is a complicated business but this season it's as easy as ABC.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 126.96.36.199
Forum Moderators: incrediBILL & martinibuster
I've been flip-flopping on what to do about bad ads for sometime now. Recently I started using the competitive filter to block over twenty of the worst offenders. However, I'm now down to less than five - all bogus survey ads. Much as I don't like the idea of the big auction sites/portals and MFA lame ads appearing on my sites, I really feel like it's over my head trying to police them too. There's simply too much statistical info that Google is not affording me to be able to know what using the competitive filter to guard my sites is really doing.
Now my ecpm has bounced back up with a vengence as it has doubled on yesterdays's starting figure. It's actually back to Feb-March levels at the moment.
Quite surprisingly my ctr is also much higher and back to Feb-March levels also. Earnings have increased but remain lower than FEB-March figures; however that has more to do the decreased traffic rather than the lower average CPC that I have been experiencing lately.
Try my EPC-based strategy as a more permanent solution to MFAs. It'll probably increase your earnings in the process. Basically, the strategy involves managing your ad stock to increase the value of each ad space and price MFAs off your site.
That's exactly how I've been managing our site lately, even dropping some OK pages to force the EPC higher. Seems to be working so far, making about the same money with around 80% of our pageviews Adsense free.
Either way, I have been aggressively removing ads from pages with very low EPC for the past three weeks and my EPC has increased dramatically. I've gone from $0.05 (lowest I've seen) to $0.41 (average).
Targeting has also been a lot better, which is why I was shocked to see MFA's taking over today.
Imho, the basic key to keeping MFAs off your site is making sure that high EPC ads individually have a healthy CTR - also discussed in April [webmasterworld.com].
The CTRs of good ads don't have to be as high as MFAs, but high enough to make good ads' eCPM higher. In the first instance this means reducing the number of ads on a page, not removing them entirely. Eg: if you have 4 ad slots on a page (eg in a leaderboard) with a CTR of 10%, that means each individual ads' CTR is, on average, 2.5% (10 divided by 4). But if you reduce the no of ads to 2 (eg in a banner), even if overall CTR for the page drops to 8%, the individual ads' CTR rises to an average of 4% (8 divided by 2).
So reducing the no of ads on a page can improve good EPC ads' eCPM on your site, making it higher than MFAs (which have high CTR and low EPC). MFAs are also unable to creep onto the bottom of pages because there is now much higher competition for fewer spaces.
In the first instance this means reducing the number of ads on a page, not removing them entirely.
Are we the only ones experimenting with lowering the overall number of pages with Adsense? We stuck with no more than one ad unit per page pretty much from the beginning, and because we're more concerned with selling widgets than ads, we never have the Ads displayed above the fold. After a while of monitoring channels, it became apparent that Adsense was following life's 80/20 rule, around 80% of our revenue was coming from 20% of our page views. Normally, we would have been happy to keep collecting that extra 20%, but the the targetting and MFA problems started, and overall revenues began dropping. For the six months from last September to this March, we ended up with Adsense on maybe 25% or 30% of our page views, and earnings seemed pretty steady. Then the MFA's returned in a big way and we moved to heavy use of the competitive ad filter. Finally, we tried Adlinks a couple month ago to try to get more page views going, but that really killed eCPM, brought more MFA's, worse targetting, etc.
Currently, we're all the way down around 20% of our page views carrying Adsense, eCPM is at an all time high, and MFA's seem to be priced out. While earnings are trending around 80% of "normal", if that keeps the MFA's away and holds revenue steady, it's a good deal. Besides, we weren't running Adsense at this level last summer, so I don't know if some of the fall off isn't just seasonal, our widget sales are probably down 20% to 30% every summer in any case.
Are we the only ones experimenting with lowering the overall number of pages with Adsense?
No, you aren't. In fact, I think your approach is the more common. Eg: there are lots of threads in this forum about removing ads from poor performing channels (which mostly means pages).
However, the techniques in the links I've posted are designed to get a lot more income from the tail. For example, on one "low performing channel" I've managed to increase the income by 250% since last October by cutting down on the number of ads displayed. I think a lot of other publishers would have removed the ads altogether. But that loses out on potential income - OK, not a great amount, but it adds up if you have a lot of pages like that.
There are pages where ads have to be removed altogether. But for our site that is a very small number - although we have a core of good earning pages, we have managed to get a lot of other pages performing moderately well, which keeps our overall income at a high level.
No, you aren't. In fact, I think your approach is the more common. Eg: there are lots of threads in this forum about removing ads from poor performing channels (which mostly means pages).
My bad, I should have said "in this thread."
I do wonder how just reducing ads works so well for you, when we never had more than one ad unit per page to start with but saw the same dilution effects. Maybe it has something to do with overall number of page views or the subject areas we're in.
In the first instance this means reducing the number of ads on a page, not removing them entirely.
Sure. I've been doing this as well. Unpopular pages with very low EPC are removed altogether, while pages with two or more ad blocks are reduced to only one ad. When reducing a page to only one ad, the targeting is 10x better.
What's so strange is the way Google promotes better success with AS. In a few places within their documentation, they mention adding more ads to more pages to help increase earnings. I think this is why so many AS newbies start in SmartPrice Hades!
we never had more than one ad unit per page
Even with one ad unit you still have control over the number of ad slots that can appear, from a single ad (eg: a button) to five (eg: a wide skyscraper). And the latter dilutes the CTR of good ads by a factor of 5, which can perhaps bring the price (ie: the eCPM associated with the ad slot) within range of an MFA.
So, when I'm talking about reducing the number of ads, I'm not counting ad units, I'm counting ad slots. That is:
wide skyscraper = 5 ad slots
leaderboard = 4
skyscraper = 4
medium/large rectangle = 4
square = 3
banner = 2
vertical banner = 2
half banner = 1
button = 1
small rectangle = 1
Even with one ad unit you still have control over the number of ad slots that can appear, from a single ad (eg: a button) to five (eg: a wide skyscraper). And the latter dilutes the CTR of good ads by a factor of 5, which can perhaps bring the price (ie: the eCPM associated with the ad slot) within range of an MFA.
That's a great idea, if we see any new signs of erosion I'll give it a shot. I guess I was lulled into the notion that Adsense would optimize the number of ads shown in the single block, which I do see changing from time to time, but we all know that their algo is far from perfect.
My proof? One of my sites it dedicated to smartphones (PDA + phone combination devices) -- this weekend it was absolutely overrun with ringtone ads. Which, of course, don't pay squat. Every single ad block was ringtones at one point. This morning? Nothing but PDA's, cell carrier service plan specials, etc. -- the type of targeting that I would expect (and want) on my site as it pays much better.
What did I do between yesterday and today? Nothing. So, as the ad inventory changes - you'll notice better ads (more inventory, better targeting) or worse ads (very few advertisers paying, which means the MFA's and other junk starts getting placement).
So, I wouldn't stress too much about a momentary spike in the number of MFA's or junk ads you see - especially when that spike comes over the weekend. I suspect that a lot of the premium AdWords advertisers stop their ad runs outside of prime hours.
if we see any new signs of erosion I'll give it a shot.
There can be a problem in that, once the erosion starts (ie the MFAs start to appear) then reducing the number of ads can simply result in the MFAs becoming the only ones that appear.
As David_UK said in one of the above threads, it is like trying to control a disease, so think SARS or foot-and-mouth: keeping it out is easier than dealing with it once it is in. The way I preempt MFAs is to try to keep the average EPC at a high level (in relation to the Adwords price). This tends to result in having a page with few ad slots, above the fold.
Having said that, there are some pages where I have 8 or more ad slots throughout the page, and I get very good returns. I reckon there must be a lot of advertisers in that niche.
MFAs spread from the lowest performing pages upwards; they become the dominant ads because of the combined impact of smartprice and the MFA's high CTR sucking poor performing pages into their reach, a bit like a black hole gobbling up the universe (apologies if I'm using too many metaphors!)
I think this is one of the most important notices AS newbies should be aware of. I was one who followed AS guidelines and placed more ads on more pages.
As a result, EPC dropped and my earnings took a dive. I run a magazine site, so there are dozens of pages with high popularity; while others are very low.
Should not have placed AS on those low popularity pages.
Low popularity pages can be high earners. For example, I have one page that is responsible for less than 0.5% (half a percent) of my page views, yet produces 4% of my income. Another page has less than 0.15% of page views, yet produces 3.2% of income.
In fact, I have removed ads completely from my most popular page (7.5% of pageviews) because, apart from one month in my early days of adsense, it makes hardly any money and the EPC values suggest it has subsequently had a strong downwards impact on smartprice.

This was my second purchase from DrillSpot and I am completely satisfied with my overall experience.
Drillspot had the best price I could find. They shipped very quickly. The item was well packaged. I could not have been more satisfied.
Cheapest price I could find, and fast, free, damage-free shipping too. The item I ordered arrived in perfect shape, just two days after placing my order. The price was about 40% less than the MSRP or highest price at other places online or nearby. Who could ask for more?
Drillspot provided the best price for this item on the net. Their delivery was ahead of schedule and the items arrived in perfect order. I would definitely use Drillspot again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a professionally run company with competitive prices.
Have no hesitations on ordering from this seller. The fan was actually broken when I received it, not due to their fault, and the customer service was awesome!! Immediately refunded my money. No hassles. This is the kind of company I love to do business with. Thank you!!
Ordered a Weber Smoky Mountain Smoker on Monday and received it Friday in Ohio. Just wanted to say thanks on the great price and great delivery. Best price on this item anywhere.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/2/2014 (1221 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The 2013 budget deficit is $86-million smaller than first anticipated, the Selinger government said today.
In releasing third quarter results, Finance Minister Jennifer Howard said the new deficit projection is $86 million less than budgeted last year.
The report says the summary budget forecast for fiscal year 2013-14 calls for a net loss of $332 million, an improvement of $186 million from the budgeted net loss of $518 million.
However, because the province recently created a $100-million contingency funds for costs associated with the effects of flooding in four First Nations communities, the summary deficit declines to $432 million, an "improvement" of $86 million.
Driving the better results are the province's Crown corporations, including Manitoba Hydro, Manitoba Public Insurance and the Workers Compensation Board of Manitoba, which have generated $215 million in higher than anticipated revenue this year.
Last April the NDP projected a $518-million summary deficit for this year.
The province also said the new number is a reduction of $148 million from last year's deficit of $580 million.
Howard also said the numbers might have been better if not for a squabble between the province and Ottawa over how many people live in Manitoba.
"Although we are currently on track, we now face the additional and unexpected challenge of $100 million less than was expected in transfer payments each year," Howard said. "The population undercount by Statistics Canada is going to mean $100 million from services in health care and education that our government still needs to provide to the people of this province."
The report also indicates the NDP is spending less money on core services like health, schools and family services. Total core spending is down $194 million.
Howard said the new budget will be delivered March 6 when the legislature comes back into session.

Grand Opening Set for Rockville County Park & Nature Preserve [AUDIO]
ROCKVILLE — Clean-up is all but completed on Stearns County's newest park. Severe storms on June 21st knocked down dozens of mature oak trees at the Rockville County Park & Nature Preserve.
John and Linda Peck donated 190-acres of the 284-acre park to Stearns County to preserve the natural habitat of the area.
Linda Peck says the storm set the park's development back by about two months. But, she says they have a grand opening set for Tuesday, September 24th at 5:00 p.m.
Peck says folks will be able to get some guided tours of what is a very unique landscape along the Sauk River…
And, Peck says there is a very rare prairie within the park too…
The park also includes a boardwalk across the bog, walking and horseback trails and an eagle's nest. She says future plans call for a fishing pier and an interpretive center.
