Sunday Morning InspirationJanuary 11, 2009
A little Sunday morning design inspiration for you… I rarely blog on a Sunday but my friend Emma posted about the lovely stylist Stephanie Hanes in NYC and I couldn't resist peeking at her website as I'd not heard of her before. What terrific photos to enjoy over tea and French macaroons this morning (mine came from here). I couldn't wait to share so here you go… A peek. Click here for more.
Now that I've enjoyed a little inspiration from Stephanie, I'm off to drool over the latest issue of Domino magazine with one of my favorite actresses on the cover, Zooey Deschanel (don't you love her music?). While I usually don't drool over celebrities on the cover of any magazine, I can deal with those I feel are from the more down-to-earth crop of celebs. The Drew Barrymore Zooey Deschanel types seem more accessible to me somehow. I'm hoping they'll profile Zooey's talented and lovely sister Emily in the future as I'm a huge Bones fan… Anyway, you can buy the she&him CD here on Amazon in case you're interested in hearing Ms. Deschanel's lovely voice…
By the way, is it only me or do you also think that the Deschanel girls and Katy Perry look totally related? Zooey is super talented so I just love seeing her in my favorite American design mag this month! For those of you without access to the print article, you can view her studio here on the Domino website.
And before I sign off today I must share with you a most unique present from Three Potato Four owners Janet & Stu. This is from a bottling company that went out of business awhile back… I'd never heard of it before but since their little girl is named Holly and they found two of these bottles, they surprised me with one. It really does say, "Refresh with Holly" and so this is something I'll never part with – what a special gift! Thank you J&S!
Enjoy your cozy Sunday!

Wall MuralsJanuary 10, 2009
This image from the Library of Congress gives us a majestic glimpse of Norway in the winter of 1890. This is soothing, don't you think? Outside of soothing, it also got me thinking a lot about scenic wall murals again. I don't know, they can look nice sometimes and I'll show you two examples of what I mean below, so save those "Ewww" remarks for a moment and wait for the photos…
See many more here: Photochrom Travel Views.
This image reminds me of a wall mural that is a bit campy but I love it because it's in my favorite neighborhood bar in Hannover called Blattgold. They papered the wall in a mural much like this one and added faux antlers and lots of fun, modern lighting, mid century modern chairs and sofas, and on another wall, this gold flock wallpaper. You'd never think these things could live together but they do. Another wall is emerald green and lime, really! I wish I had photos. Such a fun idea for a bar! It's funky eclectic, owner Sascha did a great job decorating this place. I remember seeing a scenic wall mural on Apartment Therapy that I really liked, they found it in Cottage Living magazine. Here it is below…
AT said that the homeowner, "fell in love with this wilderness-themed mural in a hunting catalog and instantly needed it in her bedroom. She pasted it up, just like wallpaper."
Wait! I do have photos of Blattgold. I found them online at a site for restaurant reviews called Qype. These photos were shot during the day, at night the restaurant lighting is very come hither with lots of candles. They also seem to love Amy Winehouse and Johnny Cash because last time I was in they played both CDs in their entirety.
Oh, wait. Blattgold has their website up (it wasn't up back in November). You can view more photos there I think. I can't wait until I'm back in Hannover this year to hang out there with Anne! Hi Anne!
So with that, see you on Monday friends! Have a great weekend everyone. Play, rest, eat, light candles, invite over some friends, rent a movie, order take out, sleep in, go skiing, fit in something fun! – Holly

Gol Considers More Capacity Cuts in 2014 as Costs Rise
Gol Linhas Aereas Inteligentes SA (GOLL3) may trim seating capacity further in 2014 to stem losses amid rising costs for fuel and stagnant travel demand, the Brazilian carrier's chief executive officer said.
"There is the possibility that we will cut capacity," CEO Paulo Sergio Kakinoff said in an interview yesterday in Sao Paulo. "But we see absolutely no reason and have no plan to cut jobs in the short and mid-term." Gol reduced its workforce by 13 percent in the first half from a year earlier.
A 2014 pullback would build on a plan to chop 9 percent of available seats this year as Gol heads toward a third annual loss, pinched by the weakening of Brazil's real against the dollar, the basis for fuel pricing. Shrinking operations helped Sao Paulo-based Gol boost a benchmark revenue gauge by the most in two years in July.
Gol's long-term, 146-jet purchase agreement with Boeing Co. (BA) and relationship with lessors, to which it can return old planes, gives it the flexibility to adjust capacity by as much as 10 percent a year, Kakinoff said. The decision, made on a monthly basis, must be taken 12 months in advance.
"The problem is that unfortunately, one year makes a huge difference," said Bianca Faiwichow, an analyst at GBM Brasil Dtvm, who recommends buying Gol shares. "The dollar in January is nowhere near where it is now."
Currency Drag
The real slid 9.8 percent against the dollar this year through yesterday, the fourth-worst performance among 16 major currencies, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Fuel accounted for 41 percent of Gol's second-quarter operating expenses, the most among 16 carriers in the Americas with at least 100 planes, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
As costs rise, Brazilian domestic demand for air travel is leveling off. The number of domestic passengers, which almost tripled from 2002 to 2012, is starting to stabilize at 100 million a year, according to the nation's airline association.
Gol got 93 percent of its 2012 revenue from its home market, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The company said on Aug. 19 that it had cut domestic capacity by 4.8 percent in July from a year earlier.
Kakinoff, 39, who took over as CEO in July 2012, said his turnaround plan is showing results even with the cost pressures at an airline that has posted losses in eight of the past nine quarters.
'Strategic Measures'
"Gol still has numerous strategic measures to be taken, which we cannot presently reveal, that should help guiding the company in the recuperation of margins that we've been seeing," he said.
The company said on Sept. 10 that it would implement a new frequent-flier model for domestic flights, which would accrue reward miles based on price rather than distance. Promotional fares would no longer be eligible for miles, according to a statement. The Sao Paulo state consumer protection agency yesterday asked Gol for clarification about the program changes.
Gol forecasts a margin for earnings before interest and taxes this year of 1 percent to 3 percent, which at the low end would be an improvement of almost 14 percentage points from 2012, Kakinoff said. The weakening of the real is the reason the company has not seen better results, the CEO said.
Gol shares gained 1.4 percent in the 12 months through yesterday, as the benchmark Ibovespa index fell 9.8 percent.
Brazil's government is considering exempting jet fuel from social welfare taxes to bring down costs, O Globo, a Rio de Janeiro-based newspaper, reported yesterday, without saying how it got the information.
"If the government doesn't help with the price of fuel, Gol will have to cut its capacity," said Faiwichow, the GBM Brasil analyst, who is projecting a drop in domestic travel demand for 2014. "Any government measure can rebalance the profitability of some routes."

Question- what type of lights are you using?? I've always had bare 100watt bulbs in my garage but am now building a BIG garage with dedicated paint booth and don't want the expense of explosion proof lights. Many have told me of fluorescent blowing up from ballast spark, halogen exploding because of being bumped, etc., etc. I know guys who use simple toffer flourescents and haven't had problems. What is your advice?
I have two double tube florescent fixtures on the ceiling and to augment them I added three 100 Watt bulbs with reflectors up high. I then used three sets of halogen shop lights about 4' off the ground and placed them at three of the four corners so I could get good lighting down the sides and back of the cab. One thing is for sure, you can't have too much lighting when painting. It's the only way you can find dry areas and make sure you cover everything evenly.
I have now torn down the paint booth and put everything back in order in the garage. Upon close inspection of the cab I found four small runs. Two the size of a quarter or half dollar and a couple about 10" long on the firewall. All will sand out completely.
One technique a long time custom painter gave me for sanding out runs was to start with 600 wet wrapped around a piece of paint stick. Being very gentle use the 600 to remove the major portion of the run. Once that's done I use an Air Vantage sander (air powered hand held sander designed for dry sanding paint) and 1500 dry finishing film to go over the whole vehicle followed by buffing. Using the Air Vantage sander allows one person to completely sand an entire paint job in a couple hours where it would take a whole day color sanding by hand. Unless you have royally screwed something up in the process when you're done you should wind up with a near perfect glass finish.

Category: Tarot card names
By Isadora Vega, Bewitching Names
Tarot cards are arguably the most popular form of divination in the modern Pagan world. Let's see if there are any names to be gleaned from them.
Tarot cards were invented in medieval Italy as a regular deck of playing cards. It's probably not surprising then that the original iconography was a lot more Catholic than it is today. They didn't really become associated with mysticism or the occult until the 1700's. The major arcana has 22 cards and was originally called the trump cards because they were used for gambling. The minor arcana looks a lot more like a regular deck of playing cards except instead of clubs, diamonds, hearts, and spades there's cups, wands, pentacles, and swords. Each card has a pictogram that represents a certain concept.
It is a myth that Pagans use tarot cards to "see the future" in a literal sense. Most people who give readings will tell you that tarot cards show you the forces at work in your life and help you see what your next steps should be.

WUSV World Championship Judges Report
Every year following the WUSV IPO World Championships the big officials of the WUSV and Judges get together for a debrief to consider the future of the sport and reflect on the quality of the competition.
This year, for the first time ever, "England" (really we should be referred to as "Great Britain" but I don't think the continentals really pay much attention such details) and Ireland were the only two countries in the whole report who were mentioned - and given high praise!
I quote the Protection Judge, Mr Josef Vonarburg - "Particularly striking is the fact that England had been very strongly represented and achieved excellent performances, although English dogs are normally only rarely represented."
This is particularly cool for me as it is the first year my dad and our own Vongalanberg Kai, who some of you might know came 7th (the only British GSD to come in the Top 40 at the World Championships, let alone the Top 10!) has competed at an International level.
You have to trawl through a long and very dry body of text to get to it but if you want to read it in the original document you can download it here.
It doesn't sound like much, but to be singled out like that at a meeting of internationally respected officials must mean we made a massive impression.
Like I said, no other country is mentioned in the whole report. If thats not excellent news for British and Irish Dog Sport, I don't know what is!

The journal Nature Geoscience published a paper by Tom Delworth and his colleagues examining how a natural atmospheric force--the North Atlantic Oscillation--may be changing ocean currents in the North Atlantic. Among other impacts, the stronger ocean currents increase the amount of heat flowing toward polar areas, which could speed up Arctic ice melt and affect how hurricanes form. We asked Delworth a few questions about his study:

Non-canonical books referenced in the Bible
The non-canonical books referenced in the Bible include Biblical apocrypha and Deuterocanonical books (which are accepted as part of the Biblical canon by most non-Protestant Christians), pseudepigrapha, writings from Hellenistic and other non-Biblical cultures, and lost works of known or unknown status. For the purposes of this article, referenced can mean direct quotations, paraphrases, or allusions, which in some cases are known only because they have been identified as such by ancient writers, or the citation of a work or author.
Hebrew Bible references[edit]
|This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: Dead links; please re-link the following external links to extant pages (April 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
The Hebrew Bible, also known as the Tanakh by Jews, and called the Old Testament by Christians, or the Protocanonical books.
- The Book of Jasher (whose title fully translated means the Book of the Upright or the Book of the Just) is mentioned in Joshua 10:13 and 2 Samuel 1:18 and also referenced in 2nd Timothy 3:8.[1] From the context in the Book of Samuel it is implied that it was a collection of poetry. Several books have claimed to be this lost text, some of which are discounted as pseudepigrapha. Certain members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints secured the copyright to one of these and republished the work in 1887 in Salt Lake City.
- The Book of the Wars of the Lord.[2] Referenced at Numbers 21:14 with possible association with War of the Sons of Light Against the Sons of Darkness. Also cited The Book of the Wars of the LORD is cited in the medieval Book of Jasher (trans. Moses Samuel c. 1840, ed. J. H. Parry 1887) Chapter 90:48 as being a collaborative record written by Moses, Joshua and the children of Israel.
- The Chronicles of the Kings of Israel and Chronicles of the Kings of Judah are mentioned in the Books of Kings (1 Kings 14:19,29).

Sagging US videogame industry revenue rebounded in November as buyers snatched up gesture-sensing control gadgets for Microsoft Xbox 360 consoles, NPD Group reported Thursday.
"The Xbox 360 Kinect was the best-selling accessory item in November," said NPD analyst Anita Frazier.
"With one month of sales, it's the top-selling accessory item in terms of dollar sales on a year-to-date basis."
Overall sales of videogame hardware and software at stores in November tallied 2.99 billion, an eight percent increase from the same month last year.
The figure did not include used videogame sales, digital distribution of software or mobile applications.
Money taken in from sales of videogame accessories such as Kinect surged 69 percent to 413.3 million dollars, according to NPD.
Xbox 360 was the top selling console for the month and Xbox 360 accessories accounted for 60 percent of the revenue in the accessory category.
"The 360 platform accounted for over 40 percent of total industry sales driven by the successful launch of Microsoft's Kinect," Frazier said.
Microsoft reported that it had sold more than 2.5 million Kinect for Xbox 360 devices worldwide in the 25 days after the videogame controllers hit the market in early November.
Microsoft is on track to meet its forecast of selling five million Kinect gadgets by the end of the year, according to Don Mattrick, president of Interactive Entertainment Business at the US-based technology giant.
Kinect uses a 3D camera and motion recognition software to let people play videogames on Xbox 360 consoles using natural body movements and voice commands instead of hand-held controllers.
The standalone Kinect, which works with the 45 million Xbox 360s already sold worldwide, costs 150 dollars. A four-gigabyte Xbox 360 console that includes the Kinect and the "Kinect Adventures" game sells for 299 dollars.
The NPD report did not specify revenue for sales of Move motion-sensing controllers for Sony PlayStation 3 videogame consoles.
Nintendo's handheld DS game gadgets were the top selling systems overall in November, according to NPD.
Activision military shooter "Call of Duty: Black Ops" was the top selling title for the month, followed by Ubisoft videogames "Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood" and "Just Dance 2."
Revenue climbed in every category, prompting NPD to estimate that the videogame industry could take in between 18.8 and 19.6 billion dollars in the United States this year.
Finishing at the high end of that range would result in revenue being about the same as it was in 2009.
"Gains in November offset a good portion of the year-to-date declines," Frazier said.Reuse content

text: Y'all gonna think I'm a wimp. I might be. I enjoy .44 magnums very much. I have .45Cs I like, also .44Spls. The hardest kicker I ever shot was partially my own dumb fault. I bought a teeney little scandium S&W Centennial snubby. I picked up 90 grain solids and checked them in a M-10...it was like shhoting squibs. My problem is that I thought that because I had Ajax Pearlites on a .45C Vaquero that they were tough, so I bought a set for the leeeetle gun. The first round I fired shattered the grips and gashed my firing hand web so that the next round helped the blood flow a little bit better. I brought the gun home and detail stripped it for a "project". And I may never put the doggoned thing back together again.

garage door window freezes others don't?
I am trying to figure out why the 2 overhead garage door window panels have ice and condensation on their insides while at the same moment the double hung and regular entry door to the outside (window) do not have ice or condensation on them. ANy ideas?
Garage doors being metal would generally produce more condensation and the surface of metal is colder than air temps so it's freezing up there rather than windows and doors which are wood or at least have wood cores. Just a theory.
Back door is also steel and garage doors are insulated. Not sure if back door has a wood inside or not. But why the condensation(water) on the inside when the other window and door in garage (same temp) don't have any?
How do I remedy? The windows are always full of h2o or ice.
I would try to install plexi glass type coverings over the windows, much like the effect of a storm window. Plexi can be cut to exact measurements and can be purchased at a hardware store or big box store. I have had luck doing this with some of my own windows that were odd sizes and froze up like you have described. Of course, you may not want to be drilling holes to install the plexi in your nice, insulated garage door. It may void any warranties. Hopefully, others come along here with even better ideas.
I appreciate the suggestion. Seems to me that if I spent all this money on top of the line Carriage type doors, this shouldn't be happening.
Sounds like the garage are single pane glass.
If you were to check the temperature of the two glass panes you'll probably see the temperature of the wet glass to be below dew point temperature while the dry pane is above dew point. It's colder for some reason we can't really tell from a distance.
Also, it never hurts to contact the company that installed the doors or even the manufacturer to see what they suggest. They see these types of problems all the time and can likely suggest a possible solution.
Entrance doors have thermopane glass in them. Garage door windows are usually not. Most of the time they are single pane, depends on the manufacturer. Garage doors are not built to be as airtight as entrance doors and house windows are.
Mike Hawkins:)
Try placing a warm heater on the inside to melt the ice, scoop the ice off the door tubing manually or pour extremely hot water on the ice and yank the door immediately since the water will freeze.
If they are single pane glass they will ice up. I've never seen double pane, insulated glass in a garage door, but I'm pretty sure they have them. Perhaps the manufacturer of your doors has a retrofit option.

Sure, it's extremely convenient to open the back door and allow the dogs to come in and out freely. And most of the time, this isn't a problem. However, on those occasions where you find your dog happily digging her way to China or destroying the flower pots, it's certainly less than ideal.
So, why do our dogs do this? Well, the answer is simple…they're dogs. Digging is a normal dog behavior.
It is extremely frustrating to find your dog covered in mud and your flowers pulled up. Punishing your dog after the fact will not address the cause of the behavior, and it will worsen any digging that's motivated by fear or anxiety. As dog owners we have to supervise our dogs, offer adequate exercise and provide enriched environments to ensure they are learning what we want them to know. This is especially important for puppies and adolescent dogs.

I have gotten a meterpreter session to my (Windows XP) victim machine and am able to upload files, but I'm not sure where (if anywhere) in the Backtrack installation I can find a Windows VNC server to upload. Does Backtrack come with anything like that?
(Before anyone asks why -- I need to have GUI access to my victim machine so I can use a key piece of graphical software installed on it. Also, I'm running Backtrack as a live CD, so I would like to use files on the live CD if possible, but obviously if it's not there, I'll just mount a thumb drive and get it off of that.)

Oct. 25, 2012
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - Tennessee head coach Dave Serrano's first recruiting class with the Vols is one of the nation's best according to Baseball America, which ranked the UT crop at No. 20 in its annual recruiting ratings released Thursday.
After being hired at Rocky Top on June 15, Serrano, recruiting coordinator Bill Mosiello, associate head coach Greg Bergeron, then-volunteer assistant Gregg Wallis and the rest of the Tennessee baseball staff worked tirelessly to put together this year's class of 23 newcomers which includes 19 freshmen and four junior college transfers.
"I am very excited to see this class honored with a national ranking and rated ahead of a number of national powers," Serrano said. "It just shows the incredible amount of hard work that this coaching staff has put in since day one to get this program back to where it belongs. Led by the efforts of recruiting coordinator Bill Mosiello, they were able to identify a group of young men who are outstanding students, players and people, who want to be a part of our family at Tennessee and who want to help us win again.
"We have only worked with them for a short time this fall, but we have been extremely pleased with what we have seen so far. They are coming together quickly as a team and, although we know we still have plenty of room for improvement, we are confident that this group is going to put this program back in the direction it should be going."
Tennessee was one of 12 Southeastern Conference teams listed in the top-25, finishing ahead of No. 21 Arkansas, No. 22 Florida and No. 24 Missouri and following top-rated Vanderbilt, No. 3 Georgia, No. 4 Alabama, No. 9 Auburn, No. 14 LSU, No. 15 Texas A&M, No. 16 South Carolina and No. 19 Kentucky.
The national recruiting class ranking from Baseball America is UT's first since 2009. This year's class includes three freshmen who were drafted last June, including left-handed pitcher/outfielder Vincent Jackson, a 23rd-round pick of the New York Yankees, infielder/outfielder Vance Vizcaino, the New York Mets' 31st-round selection, and infielder A.J. Simcox who was drafted in the 32nd round by the Colorado Rockies.

Android App Shows You Live Events From CERN's Large Hadron Collider
You can now hunt for the Higgs Boson and watch science experiments on your smartphone with LHSee.
The Large Hadron Collider in Geneva, Switzerland is designed to carry out experiments to get a better understanding of the structure of space and time and the origin of mass. Now, science enthusiasts can watch the experiments themselves with a new smartphone app called LHSee. A wirefram diagram lets you pinch and zoom or rotate it in any direction you like, and you can interact to find out how the different parts of the detector work and learn how to identify different types of collision. As well as streaming the experiments live in full 3D graphics, there are a variety of educational resources and a 'Hunt the Higgs' game.
The free Android app has been designed for experts and non-experts alike. It was created by Oxford University students and funded by the Science and Technology Facilities Council through its Small Awards grant scheme. The app is available now from the Android Marketplace.

ABSTRACT: Wnt signaling has been implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis, but no studies have described Wnt signaling in aging brain. Phosphorylation of the Wnt coreceptor, low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (Lrp6), is a sensitive indicator of Wnt ligand-receptor interaction and canonical Wnt signaling. We report that in aged human temporal lobe, the phospho-Lrp6 (pLrp6) epitope localizes to neurons in the entorhinal cortex (EC), the dentate gyrus (DG), and the hippocampal formation, especially in the CA3 field. Activated Lrp6 is detected in neuronal soma and in neuronal processes, particularly in the mossy fiber terminals in the stratum lucidum of CA3. These three regions and their connectivity represent the afferent arm of the major hippocampal circuit. In the DG, cells positive for pLrp6 include Type 1 and Type 2 hippocampal progenitor cells. Overall, these data indicate regional Wnt receptor activation in the human hippocampus that is most prominent in the cells comprising the afferent arm of the major hippocampal circuit that is associated with learning and memory functions. These findings are consistent with data from rodent studies which suggest an important role for Wnts in adult neurogenesis in the human DG. We speculate that Wnt signaling may be an activity-dependent trophic influence in the hippocampus.

I know this has been posted a few times and I know what probably needs to be done but everytime I take the care into the dealership it does not leak! From the other threads I have read it is because the pressure equalizes and the leak stops once the car has been running for about 10 minutes.
I could just get them to replace the filter and hoses but I would rather they see the leak and determine for themselves what the issue is, that way they will warranty the work & parts.
Every morning when I start her up in the driveway, it drips fuel. I drive out to work, stop about 15 minutes into the trip to check for the leak and it isn't dripping any longer. I have taken it to the dealer 3 times and it has never leaked, so I can't recreate the issue.
Is there any way I could reproduce the condition with the pressure in the fuel filter? Would filling some gas make a difference? Just opening the fuel tank?

Freeman's high and dry, she hopes
Page Tools
"I'm just so proud, so honoured" ... Cathy Freeman at the Opera House yesterday. Photo: Tamara Dean
Four years on, and with another Olympic torch in her hands, one thing is fairly certain: Cathy Freeman will take better care of her uniform today.
In 2000, Freeman was drenched by the water of the cauldron as she waited, and waited, for a malfunction to be rectified. When she got back to the dressing room at the Olympic stadium she stripped off her soaking white bodysuit and tossed it aside.
It was never seen again.
"I remember taking it off that night and I haven't seen it since," she said. "It all happened so quickly. I was more concerned about getting back to my bed to sleep and get ready for training."
As an Olympic official pointed out, Sydney volunteer uniforms are now sold for $1200 on online trading websites, so imagine how much the bodysuit would be worth had it not vanished.
The Australian Olympic Committee would like to locate the outfit, due to its significance.
But Freeman is philosophical, noting that she would rather have a gold medal than a bodysuit.
Today, Freeman will record yet another first when she jogs, not runs, with the Athens 2004 torch as the first runner in the relay, following a ceremony this morning on the upper forecourt of the Sydney Opera House.
She is not sure what she will be wearing this morning, but her fellow torch-bearers will wear the Athens winter uniform.
Freeman's first touch of the Athens torch will ignite the biggest Olympic celebrations in Sydney since the closing ceremony in October 2000. Sydney is the first of 33 cities - most of which have hosted Summer Olympics - to receive the relay, spanning 27 countries.
This morning's ceremony after the arrival of the flame will include an indigenous performance, a Greek-Australian choir and high priestesses played by schoolgirls.
It will be considerably more low-tech than Freeman's dramatic, and spectacular, cauldron lighting in 2000. This time it will be the former cricket captain Steve Waugh who will be at the mercy of electronics when he lights the relocated cauldron at Sydney Olympic Park.
"I expect that there'll be no mechanical breakdowns," Freeman laughed. "I'm just looking forward to it. I'm just so proud, so honoured ... [Memories of 2000] are flooding back."
For her, today will be a day of "no pressure" compared with the Sydney Olympics. Just a "nice slow, leisurely" jog down the Opera House steps and across the forecourt.
But there will be plenty of pressure on organisers.
Freeman will be the first element in a logistically complex day-long event that will require a convoy of 22 vehicles, including six mini-buses to transport torchbearers.

Pacquiao vs Margarito Fight Odds & Prediction
Pacquiao vs Margarito Fight Odds & Fight Prediction: He is undoubtedly one of the biggest draws in boxing, but how many times can Manny Pacquiao move up in weight before encountering real trouble? Saturday at Cowboys Stadium, in Arlington, Texas (9 pm ET) sees the Pacman concede 5 inches in height and six inches in reach as he takes on Antonio Margarito for the vacant WBC light middleweight crown. A spectacular fight against the Mexican brawler is guaranteed, but will Pacquiao's class come through?
As of Friday morning, BODOG.com is listing Pacquiao the favorite to win in any way at -450 odds. The rounds total OVER/UNDER odds are set at 9 1/2. Margarito backers are getting +300 odds as the undedog. Check for the latest boxing odds to find the best line on the Pacquiao vs Margarito Fight.
Method of victory odds have Pacquiao at -140 winning by KO, TKO or DQ. For Margarito winning by KO, TKO or DQ are +450. Odds on Pacquiao winning by decision are +280 while odds on Margarito winning by decision are +1100. Odds on a draw occurring are +2500.
Back in July, promoter Bob Arum announced that Pacquiao's fight on Nov. 13 against Margarito for the vacant WBC Super Welterweight World title, which gives Pacquiao the chance to win a world title in his eighth weight class, the light middleweight or super welterweight division.
Some boxing experts have commented that Pacquiao is extremely small for a welterweight. His opponent Margarito is eager to win back his reputation after a knockout loss to Shane Mosley.
Reno Gold's Pacquaio vs Margarito Fight Prediction: My view is not clouded by the Pacquiao phenomenon. As he moves up in weight class he is jeopardizing his record. Eventually he will bite off to much, and I think this fight could be disastrous. I expect an upset here – Margarito +300.
Online super-sportsbook BODOG.com is offering an extensive betting card, including moneyline and prop's odds, for Saturday's Pacquiao vs. Margarito main event as well as cards on all the undercard bouts.

Remy Cabella was born in Ajaccio in Corsica, and he is on a vacation there at the moment after his World Cup exploits, and the Chronicle is reporting that the deal to bring him to Newcastle is a done deal, with a fee of £12M agreed with Montpellier, and his compensation package also agreed.
Remy Cabella – soon to be a Newcastle United player
You've got to give Newcastle credit where it's due, and they have paid close to what Louis Nicollin wanted for his winger, assuming it's £12M, which is what's being reported, and not €12M (£9.6M).
The next thing is his medical and he will be flying in over the weekend to take that, and then he will sign along the dotted line and become Newcastle's fourth signing this summer and joins Siem de Jong (£6.5M), Jack Colback (free agent) and Ayoze Perez (£1.4M) at the club.
It will bring Newcastle's spending this summer so far to close to £20M, and we are after a number of other very good players.
Cabella will sign a six year deal at Newcastle, and the 24 year-old is at an age when playing in the Premier League will only improve his game, and we hope he will quickly improve as other French players have done, once they arrive on Tyneside.
When Cabella left for his vacation he was told he would be kept in the loop on any progress, so it didn't take long after that for the deal to be agreed between the two clubs with President Laurent Nicollin telling the French press that a deal had been agreed.
Newcastle are getting what they wanted for Mathieu Debuchy and with bonuses that is around £12M – which is what Newcastle have invested in Cabella – who is almost five years younger than Debuchy.
What we like about this deal is that Newcastle have paid out good money for an excellent player, and we hope this is the start of Newcastle being more ambitious – and even targeting a top four spot.
We don't want to get too carried away – but this is an excellent deal for Newcastle United.
Well done Lee Charnley and the other people involved in making it happen.

What should Mma be?
Hi Mathgroupers,
Concerning the discussion about the essence of Mma in the future. In my
opinion Mathematica should be developed both as a mathematical and
presentation tool.
1) Having to use other programs to present the results means that I have
to do part of the job twice. This is contrary to the basic idea of Mma -
Let a computer do the routine work.

makes it possible to spend more on R&D. If Mathematica is a tool for
research workers in universities only, the resources to develop
mathematical algorithms would be smaller. So, good looking graphics
enables better mathematical algorithms.

Category: Press Releases
SORALUCE was on Monday one of the few companies chosen by the trade fair to showcase its latest developments and innovations to the President of the Federal Republic of Germany, Mr. Joachim Gauck, after the official presentation of the EMO Hannover 2013. President Gauck was joined at the opening ceremony by the Prime Minister of Lower Saxony, Stephan Weil, the European Commissioner for Trade, Karel De Gucht and the President of Cecimo, Martin Kapp.
After the opening speeches, the procession made an inaugural visit-tour passing exclusively by three industry leaders booths, and also visiting the special stand dedicated to youth. Read more

South Africa's IP lesson for America
The U.S. is not alone in struggling with the right policy for intellectual property. Here, the big questions revolve around the gobbling up of large numbers of patents by aggregators who aren't innovators. But in developing nations, the questions are far more basic.
Three months ago, the South African Department of Trade and Industry issued a 44-page draft National Policy on Intellectual Property. It has become the subject of heated discussion. The policy, which could become the basis of legislation, proceeds from the premise that as a developing economy, South Africa should be able to suspend or abrogate the IP rights of patent holders from richer nations so that South Africans can make use of their inventors at low, or no, cost. Special targets are pharmaceutical and software IP.
Such an approach is dangerously short-sighted. The world is a big place, and it's hard to see why IP-intensive industries would choose to do their R&D, production, and distribution in South Africa in the environment that would be created by the proposal. Home-grown innovators would be wary as well, encouraging a brain drain.
I laid out the argument in more detail yesterday in an op-ed (0) in the South African publication Business Day.
It's really not very complicated. The rule of law – including respect for private property – is an asset as important as diamonds or oil in the ground. Arnold Kling and Nick Schulz laid out the argument for the power of intangible assets of this nature in their excellent book of a few years back, Invisible Wealth (1).
My guess is that South Africa will be responsive to the likely adverse reaction of markets if the policy goes into effect – foreign direct investment, absolutely vital at this stage in the nation's development, will dry up.
But what's happening in South Africa is a good lesson for developed nations as well. In today's world, IP policy counts. It can't be held hostage to short-term political considerations or sloppy economics.

I am now in discussions to rent or purchase a house with my sister, and we have slowly begun the search. We've each figured out how much we can afford in housing, and what are basic requirements are (since she still works and commutes, hers are a bit more specific than mine). At first glance this might seem like I ignored my own guidelines. Perhaps. However, I can say with a fair amount of certainty that I would probably not have chosen to do this with someone who was not a family member, and not without moving to a third (neutral if you will) location. Even if that meant leaving a home I had owned longer that the one I just sold.
Shared housing is not uncommon in retirement, and for good reason. A 2006 Census Bureau found that 7.4 million women aged 65 and older live alone, compared with 2.7 million men. Many of these singles choose a shared housing option for financial reasons, some for friendship and companionship. Many find one after the other.
Some might call it the "Golden Girl" syndrome, but in fact sharing housing expenses can improve the quality of life for single retirees-as well as increase friendships. In my case, as readers may remember, I was looking at a two bedroom condo with patio and no yard. I had planned to downsize-and I'll say here that I would have been happy and comfortable in that situation (although dog care may have required some logistics).
The chance to share a home with my sister increases my quality of life on various levels. My housing costs will certainly be lowered even further. That is not the only advantage, however. My sister has gotten the green thumb of twenty people-so a yard that was a burden to me will be a joy to her. Where I would have paid for mowing and landscaping, she will consider it a joy (and has already made it clear that there will be a fenced garden and a run for the dogs and never the two shall meet). On the other hand, I am retired and when I am not traveling make meals from scratch every night. My sister still works by choice, and no longer needs to grab something on the way home from work. The financial benefits go on.
Home sharing also has the advantage of friendship and companionship. This is certainly true in our case-and I say that as a woman who is comfortable in her single hood. Sharing meals on the patio, going to the movies together-little things can mean a lot. Certainly for me, that kind of companionship is much more comfortable, and easier, because of a lifetime of shared experiences.
There are certainly a variety of home sharing options for those who are interested, and many areas have home sharing organizations that assist people. For many retirees (single or couple)they are well worth looking into.
Often a home owner rents out a room or rooms. In this case the situation is done primarily for income and there is a landlord/roommate type situation-one person has all the power and all the rules. This is what was suggested to me most often. Room rentals are often short term however, and I was unwilling to have a new person in my home every semester. And of course my dogs probably would have developed some kind of psychosis with the revolving door!
Sometimes a single person takes on a roommate in the truest sense-sharing all parts of the house and all expenses. I believe that this situation works well for many-as long as the person who already owned the home treats the situation as one of sharing. When I was looking on craigslist for a smaller house (when I thought I was staying in Dallas), I had many offers of this kind. In each case, the requirements of the homeowner kept me from pursuing this option-and I am extremely laid back when it comes to needs and requirements. That said, I would probably have been equally difficult had it been my home where the sharing would take place.
A third option is to buy or rent a home with the purpose of choosing to live together. This is the option I chose, and it is the one I would advise to others from my limited experience. This option puts everyone on an equal footing, and allows individuals to start fresh. I realize that on occasion there is a home attachment that may seem to require a different choice-however for me at least the "starting in a new house" that will probably be my "forever house" was the best option.
Admittedly this third option requires alot of leg work and discussions on both sides. We each made up a budget, decided how much we could afford on housing overall, and what our maximum share of the mortgage or rent would be, just as an example. It was worth taking these steps in the short term, to ensure longer term success. While we both made adjustments, things were made easier by knowledge of each other (and by the fact that I had stayed in my sister's home and observed her lifestyle each and every time I traveled to Denver for many years.
As I said before, in my case I chose the home sharing option because my new roommate would be a known family member. Others may choose, or explore, different options we are all different. That said, when looking at a joint housing situation, these are some of the things I would certainly take into consideration:
- Assuming this is a true sharing situation, make sure both parties are aware of all the costs. This may seem obvious. Our budget includes what we can both afford a house payment-but it also includes all utilities and a rough estimate of housing maintenance and costs-both irregular and regular. If it's a renter situation, be crystal clear-will you charge your tenant based on house percentage (one room out of four?). Will tenant utilities be a flat fee, or will they be adjusted each time you get your bill.
- Be completely honest about lifestyle choices. I am a night owl who walks out to the kitchen on occasion and spends an hour in bed after waking up. My sister arises early even on the weekends. She watches TV alot in the winter and works outside in the warm weather. I need more quiet than she does. I am on a diet, meaning that although we share meals we have two cream cheese options, two salad dressing options and like in the fridge. She is less social, where as I have a dinner group and host a quilting small group each month. In our case, these reveals allowed us not just to think about lifestyle choices, but to think about our housing needs. We don't need two living spaces for example-but we do need bedrooms large enough for chairs and "space". And of course she needs a sun room and I need a quilting studio.
- What will you do together and what will you do separately (again, if this is a sharing situation). Will you be offended if your roommate takes his or her dinner to the bedroom to eat and watch TV? Will you cook together and or eat together? Will you be two separate ships passing in the night each in your own room doing your own thing? (not for me but it may work for some)
- Do you have something in writing if things do not work out? Will you then get another roommate or roommates? What are the financial obligations in this case? How will you deal emotionally, especially if you are friends or family.
- Finally, do what you can at all times to make this "our house" rather than "my house" no matter who the owner is and what the living situation. The room rental situation may be the one exception here. However, I'll say that in every situation I know of where house sharing has not worked (and there have been a few), the primary cause was that the "renter/roommate" never felt comfortable because it always felt like the other person's home-with the roommate a short term visitor.
Do you know people who share housing? Is it something you have considered or ever would consider??

Any ideas how to get these out? I hate to have to take it to the gunsmith to get them out. Thanks for any help on this.

Alisa Fleming ~ One of the biggest new trends in the health and diet arena is the paleo or primal diet. The two have their own intricacies, but in general, both the paleo and primal diet focus on what is believed to be the "caveman" diet. No legumes or grains are allowed (we're talking well beyond gluten-free here!), and (*gasp*) added sugars are forbidden. This may sound like a death sentence to dessert, but don't think for a minute that paleo dieters don't crave a little indulgence now and then. Like so many other types of diets, people get creative with ingredients, and the results can be surprisingly delicious.
Take for example my friend Lori. She is a personal trainer in California who primarily follows the paleo diet, but has an immense sweet tooth. She is constantly coming up with sweet snack and treat recipes that happen to be paleo, and one of her latest creations was a perfect-for-summer pie. Lori uses nut flours and coconut flour for the crust and thickening power in place of grains and starches, and for the sugar, she calls upon the natural sweetness of ripe seasonal fruit and a little stevia (seen as an herb or spice rather than an alternative sweetener). Both paleo and primal dieters do say that a little honey is okay from time to time, so Lori offers a honey or maple syrup option should you not have the stevia baking blend.
Enjoy this nutritious recipe from What Runs Lori for breakfast or dessert! …
Paleo Plum and Peach Pie
This Recipe is Vegan, Dairy-Free, Egg-Free, Gluten-Free, Grain-Free, Soy-Free, and optionally Sugar-Free.
This recipe is adapted by What Runs Lori from Scrawny WOD.
- 5 Cups of Sliced, Ripe Plums and Peaches (keep the juices)
- 1/3 Cup Coconut Flour or Vanilla Protein Powder (egg white protein powder to keep it relatively paleo, otherwise you can use a brown rice or soy version)
- 1/4 Cup NuNaturals Baking Blend (can substitute honey or maple syrup)
- 1 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
- 1 Prepared Paleo Pie Crust (recipe here), reserve 1/2 cup of the pie crust mixture for topping
Combine the fruit, flour or protein powder, sweetener, cinnamon, and salt in a mixing bowl, along with the juices. If you have the time, let the mixture sit in the refrigerator for 3 hours prior to using. It allows the flavors time to meld together.
Bake the pie crust. After it is done, reduce the heat of the oven to 375ºF.
Pour the fruit mixture into baked pie crust, and sprinkle the reserved crust mixture on top. Place the pie back into the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the crumble on top has browned slightly.
Makes one 9-inch round pie

IPSL programs join academic learning with volunteer service to the host community. By integrating formal study with service to the local community in an intercultural/international setting, students find their learning takes on greater depth and meaning, and that they gain highly valuable, transferable skills that they would not otherwise acquire on a traditional study abroad program. Working with host community members brings classroom lessons to life, while the formal study broadens the students' understanding of their surroundings and lends added perspective to daily impressions.
IPSL offers its core undergraduate programs in Argentina, Cambodia, Ecuador, England, France, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Peru, Spain, Tanzania, Thailand, and Vietnam. Program duration is generally one semester of 13-16 weeks in the fall and spring, and for 4-8 weeks in the summer .
IPSL programs vary, but the basic components of each program are:
- academic courses for college/university credit
- language training, camps, or classes
- volunteer service-learning™ placement and oversight
- homestay with a local family
- academic excursions
After over thirty years, we know that these elements provide participants with a structure for deeper cultural immersion, solid language acquisition and a life-changing experience that builds transferable skills.

How embarrassing.
When he ran for Clackamas County Chair, Commissioner Paul Savas waffled on the Portland-to-Milwaukie Light Rail Project by defending only a public vote on the financing in his Voters Pamphlet page, rather than opposing the project.
But after finishing in third place, Savas unexpectedly had to choose Tuesday between publicly supporting and opposing the county portion of the project.
Savas was invited to Tuesday's signing ceremony for the federal Full Funding Grant Agreement. To get there, he had to walk past a group of Clackamas County pickets that included former Wilsonville Mayor John Ludlow, who finished first in the race for commission chair. When Ludlow invited Savas to join him on the picket line, Savas demurred and kept walking.
Campaign spending keeps rising
As expected, the most recent campaign filings show the major candidates in the contested City Council races increased their spending as the election approached.
As of Monday, businesswoman Eileen Brady reported raising more than $1.3 million in cash and in-kind contributions in her losing campaign for Portland mayor. She listed $250,000 in outstanding loans and a deficit of more than $213,000. That compared to more than $835,000 in contributions reported by first-place finisher Charlie Hales. The former city commissioner listed $125,000 in outstanding loans and a deficit of over $96,000. State Rep. Jefferson Smith, who finished in second place to earn a spot in a runoff with Hales, reported raising more than $588,000. He reported $6,000 in loans and a surplus of more than $46,000.
In the race for City Council Position 1, Commissioner Amanda Frtiz reported raising more than $227,000, including donations of more than $134,000 from herself for TV ads. She had $50,000 in loans and a deficit of more than $30,000. State Rep. Mary Nolan, who finished slightly behind Fritz but forced a runoff election, reported raising more than $338,000. She had no loans and a deficit of slightly more than $386.
General election whole new ballgame
Jefferson Smith is undoubtedly pleased with his second-place finish and how the November runoff election could shape up. With about 33 percent of the primary vote, Smith finished more than 10 points ahead of Brady, despite raising about half as much in cash and in-kind contributions. Smith also finished within 5 points of Hales, who outraised him by almost $250,000.
The big question is who will vote in the November election. Only 38.8 percent of Multnomah County voters returned their primary ballots, a relatively low rate that most commentators blamed on the lack of contested presidential primary races. But the general election contest between President Obama and presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney would be very contested and include the kind of Democratic fundraising and turnout efforts, including among young voters, that could benefit Smith more than Hales in November.

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has jokingly raised the possibility of teaming up with U.S. President Barack Obama to lobby for baseball and softball to be brought back to the Olympics. Chavez made the remark during a televised speech, saying he's sorry that the two sports won't be played at the London Games. Baseball and softball were last played as medal events at the 2008 Beijing Games. Chavez, a baseball fan, provoked laughter from aides when he said: ''Let's go Obama, together. Alliances can be made.'' He said that Fidel and Raul Castro of Cuba would also ''fight for baseball and softball.'' Relations have been tense for years between Chavez and the U.S. government.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by TWOTIMESRALPHI, Jul 20, 2006.
Dunkin Darvin Ham. The last I read He was playing in the Phillippines.
Kobe. you can read his name on the jersey:P
I believe he was recently spotted on a 2006 Summer League Team.
yeah, he was, I think it was Orlando and he was talking about helping with his experience. So long ago Darvin played for this team that I even can't remember him... gotta love his hustle
Darvin seemed to be one of those players brought in because he had a good game against the home team. He came in with Milwaukee a couple of years ago and had a really good game. Next summer he was in a U-Haul heading east. It seems like that happens a lot. But I wonder how much impact it really has. It's usually a bench player who has a career night against someone and ends up moving there.
I remember him jacking up one crazy 3pt shot against us while he was falling down to the ground- and it hit nothing but net. Looking at that picture again I wonder he was allowed to defend Kobe in the finals???
Dunkin' Darvin I never knew he made the cover of SI in college. Great picture of the aftermath of shattering a backboard. Wikipedia article on Darvin Ham.
Wow, what a great pic!
Check this thread for video... http://www.pistonsforum.com/detroit-pistons-general-discussion/448-darvin-ham.html?highlight=ham
Michael Curry's younger brother?
Man that music reminds me of my Nephew. My sister in law has dual citizenship with France and the US. And when ever the baby would start crying, and wouldn't stop, they'd play this really annoying Fench Techno music, REALLY loud. And the kid would be asleep like instantly. It really sucked when my wife baby-sat. I'm going to tease the hell out of him for that when he gets older.
Niiiiiiiice! I miss Dunkin Darvin's energy off the bench.
who gave him that nickname?
I think I read somewhere recently that he got it in college. Right around the time he shattered that backboard. Could be making that up though. But I'm sure Micro will come and save the day with a link on the origins shortly! (No pressure )
George Blaha.
Oh yeah, thats it. I knew I read it somewhere that someone gave it to him at some time. :P
did he retire or would he come back???What is he doing?I last saw him on NBATV broadband and he talked about the Pistons during the playoffs but don't know what he is doing now
He is doing some TV stuff. He played some time last season in the Phillipeans(?). And he was on the Orlando Magic's summer league team. Haven't heard if he got an invite to training camp or not.
Separate names with a comma.

(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:23:32 -0400)
Son of a duke, heir to estates and influence, Lord Edward died in a Dublin jail as a rebel and a traitor. Born in 1763, he joined the British army and fought in the American War of Independence. Elected to the Irish Parliament in 1783, he soon made his radical sentiments known - his belief in the goodness of man and the importance of liberty and equality. Returning to North America in 1787, Lord Edward spent time with the Iroquois and was virtually adopted by them; back in Europe, he became a disciple of Thomas Paine, visited revolutionary France, and then joined the Irish underground in the 1790s. Even his love life was political - from his tragic affection for Elizabeth Linley, wife of Richard Brinsley Sheridan, to his marriage to the daughter of a French republican.In the final years of his dramatic life, politics and passion came together. With his wife as his helpmate, Lord Edward plotted Irish independence from Britain. He was captured and died, wounded and raving, as the bloody rebellion of 1798 raged around him.… (more)

AnnaMalia, can you email me the name of the office you went to? I am thinking of having the same treatment done here in Honolulu and your experience definitely does not sound good. I hope your scars are going away by now. Thank you. READ COMMENT

Tribeca Cinemas Presents "The High Cost of Living" - Tribeca Cinemas
Hours: 3:30pm
Ages: TE,AD
Price: $8; $6 students and seniors
54 Varick Street - 212-941-2001
Manhattan, NY 10013
Description: Written and directed by Deborah Chow, this film starts with an accident. Henry (Zach Braff) makes a wrong turn and crashes into Nathalie (Isabelle Blais). In a fit of panic and over the legal limit, he runs away, leaving Nathalie lying in the street, unconscious, bleeding, and eight months pregnant. She wakes up in the hospital only to find her bright future destroyed and the baby she is still carrying dead. Her husband, Michel (Patrick Labbe) is too unnerved and emotionally bereft to deal with the tragedy. As her life unravels, she stumbles across Henry – who has been secretly searching for his victim. Unaware who he really is, Nathalie sees him as an unlikely guardian angel, everything Michel is not – compassionate, charming, and a little crazy. She finds a welcome relief in the tall, rumpled stranger that seems only too willing to offer her refuge. But Henry has his own problems. His past is catching up with him, and he soon discovers that the police are steadily closing in. The inevitable collision will force Henry and Nathalie to confront loss and life, and to ultimately decide whether the high cost of living is worth the price.
