NHC Thoughts
Impressions of last weekend's 13th annual Daily Racing Form/NTRA National Handicapping Championship at Treasure Island on the great Las Vegas strip:
It just couldn't have gotten more dramatic at the end of the NHC – actually, yes, it could have, but we'll talk about that in a second – with the last race in the contest, Saturday's ninth and final event at Golden Gate, deciding the outcome in a way that would have been too over-the-top for even Hollywood.
Michael Beychok, who was chasing front runner Dave Flanzbaum, took Glorious Dancer in the finale. Flanzbaum told me he saved his final elective bet for this race and took Royalism. Glorious Dancer got up in the very last jump to win by a lip, while Royalism finished fast to be third, beaten less than a length. After hovering around 5-2 for much of the way, Glorious Dancer's odds drifted up a bit late and she wound up paying $8.20 to win and $3.80 to place (don't forget, the NHC is a win-place contest). So, Glorious Dancer desperately getting up in the last stride, her odds drifting up just enough late in the betting, and Royalism just running out of real estate, enabled Beychok to nail Flanzbaum by one lonely dollar and take the $1 million first prize. Flanzbaum didn't exactly walk away empty handed. He took second money of $150,000. Still, Flanzbaum suffered an incredibly tough beat for $850,000, and it was impossible not to feel as bad for him as happy for Beychok. For the record, Flanzbaum showed as much class and dignity in defeat as Beychok showed graciousness in victory, which is to say, a lot.
The one problem I had is it took quite a while even after the official sign was posted at Golden Gate for Beychok to officially be named the NHC winner. There was a raucous celebration at Beychok's table immediately after Glorious Dancer got up. But a few minutes later when things calmed down a bit, Beychok admitted that while he thought he might have caught Flanzbaum, even he really didn't know for sure. No one did.
Here's why: Beyond the rightful accounting of the top few contestants immediately upon conclusion of the contest (there is a thorough accounting later on) there is an NHC policy of not providing updated standings through the final few races of the contest. I understand why some think this is the way to go. Proponents of this philosophy maintain that this prevents the end of the contest from becoming an exercise in dart throwing, where some folks chasing the leader will take nothing but bombers in the hopes of catching lightning in a bottle. But – and this is strictly my opinion – I disagree with this update blackout.
For one, while no one wants to see a contest like the NHC turn on a ridiculous longshot, for that to happen, and thus justify the update blackout, a contestant has to be in striking position, he has to have saved enough elective plays for the end, and he has to be willing to sacrifice a better finishing position and payday. Most importantly, a contestant can take as many 20-1 shots late in the contest as they like, but that doesn't mean any of them will win or finish second. In fact, the update blackout really doesn't prevent contestants from "throwing darts" late because players, especially those laying around 12th to 20th, are going to do exactly that, not necessarily in the hopes of winning, but in the hopes of getting a significantly larger piece of the purse. And let's not forget, this NHC was decided on a low 3-1 shot.
To me, the late update blackout is akin to not knowing if your NFL team needs a touchdown or a field goal to win. And from an aesthetic standpoint, much of the electricity of Saturday's wild finish was lost in the 25 minutes or so of waiting before Beychok was declared the winner. That is because no one knew for sure where anyone stood through the last four contest races.
Speaking of late the contest, Beychok deserves a lot of credit for being as close to Flanzbaum as he was considering the number of plays each had made. After the last mandatory NHC contest race (Santa Anita's 8th) and with four optional races to go, Flanzbaum told me he had one elective bet left. After the contest was over, Beychok told me that when there were still five optional races left, he still had four elective bullets to use. In his words, his elective plays late "bombed." Glorious Dancer was his only winner, and the only other money he collected was $7.40 when Schofield Barracks finished second at Santa Anita.
I admit I wondered of this NHC would lose something being the first to be held in a ballroom instead of a race book, a move necessitated by the fact that the NHC field was 60% larger than it was last year. No race book can hold 480 contestants comfortably. But Treasure Island did a great job. We had the second floor of the facility, and in addition to the main ballroom, there was a smaller ballroom set up for family and friends of contestants, or contestants who just wanted to be in a smaller room. That was an especially nice touch. In the main ballroom, there were a total of 18 huge screen projection televisions along the ceiling line, meaning there wasn't a bad seat in the house. Tables were set up for eight players each, and worries about contestants being cramped proved unfounded. There were 16 manned windows up in front of the room, all of them contest windows and a good portion also being live betting windows. And a huge plus were the 12 SAM machines dedicated to the contest along a side wall. All of this kept congestion at the windows to a minimum.
If there is one quibble, it is that there was more noise coming from the podium this year than in any previous NHC. Most of the announcements were well intended, providing information that was meant to be helpful. But much of it was redundant stuff that was obvious to anyone looking at a tv screen. And some of it, such as the introduction of people who had no connection to the contest whatsoever, was an intrusion. Contestants are shooting for $1 million. They shouldn't have a constant din interrupting their concentration. But on the whole, Treasure Island did a fantastic job and deserves a tip of the hat.
General note I see many posters speculating about, how much, or the structure of the payouts, costs, overhead, etc. FYI, DRF posted an article a few days prior to the contest spelling it all out. Please read it, and I hope it answers your questions, and or complaints. ..in short the last paragraph sums it up: "Official prize money was set after the Last Chance Tournament on Wednesday at Treasure Island with the final five NHC seats up for grabs and 70 percent of those entry fees going to the NHC XIII purse. In addition to the $1 million first-place prize, $150,000 goes to the second-place finisher, $80,000 for third, $50,000 for fourth, and $37,000 for fifth. Prizes are paid to the top 50, with the last cashing spot worth $1,003. There are also daily prizes for the top scores with Friday's pay scale set at $2,500 for first, $1,500 for second, and $1,000 for third; Saturday's prizes are $5,000 for first, $3,000 for second, $2,000 for third. The total prizes to be paid out this weekend will be $1,507,003. An additional $125,000 was paid to the top finishers on the NHC Tour and another $174,337 in airfare and hotel rooms for qualifiers at the finals for total payouts of slightly more than $1.8 million" for the complete article : http://www.drf.com/news/handicappers-chase-15-million-prize-money-drfntra-national-handicapping-championship I have posted the same at another DRF blog site, and no one has said anything since. Hope this helps. Once again, MW ...nice job on your recap.
I see many comments about the actual take in money the NHC accumulates over the year to purse payouts at the contest. I don't begrudge the NHC for taking a % for the service they provide each year but if Rich is right then the 1.5 million overage that is pocketed seems an inordinate amount to take off the top. With the success and growth of the NHC over the last few years, I believe it might be time for full disclosure so not to cloud everyone's speculation and thoughts. I think if the NHC did this it would keep the contest participants fully informed and reduce the doubts among them. It would also give us some comfort knowing that this information that is provided will also be in sync with the government and IRS on that actual overage because with the money taken in now the IRS would if not already start to regulate that activity. This would also remove the speculation that if the overage was not fully disclosed by the NHC to the IRS then what would stop the IRS from shutting down the contest close to next year because those overage funds were not fully disclosed? I have seen this happen with several poker betting sites in which many players lost money cause it was seized by the IRS because they neglected to report the funds being made and were using players money for their own benefits. I would hate to see this happen here, especially the way this contest has grown over the years. So full transparency made be in order here.
Rich I agree with transparency and there certainly is a question as to where a lot of money ends up. I recognize that there are costs but at the end of the day I think it is important to understand the % of our money that is going to administrative costs as opposed to purses. NHC is not the sole funding arm of NTRA but there is certainly some costs incurred. However, unless I am misinerpreting your comments about the Sunday tourney, you are way off base. The Sunday tourney had 200+ entrants and paid off 100% ;purse prize plus 3 NHC quallys. There was no takeout/rake. It's very unfair to bundle that in your comments. I would encourage all that participate in tourneys to understand the % payout structure so they can determine if it makes sense for them to participate. For me, any tourney such as Sunday's at TI in which there was 100% payout makes it an easy decision. Stringmail
I have just read all the comments and I would like to add that paying down to the top 50 was to high. That's one reason that second place was so low. Most of the contest players didn't come to Vegas to win a nominal prize of a little over $1000.00 dollars.The BEST handicappers should receive the biggest payoffs.Pay to the top 20 and make it worthwhile to the Best players.Sounds like people want BIGGER PAYOUTS so forget the token prizes. The contest format is fine like it is but after EVERY race there should be a update on the leader board.Yes the bomb won the 1st mandatory and put most of us in a big hole but that's Horse Racing.The daily prizes are low especially day 1.You beat out 481 players and get $2,500.00,it should be more like 15,000.00. People shouldn't gripe about the entry fee's if you can't afford to play don't.The entry fee's pay for the prize money.If they are going to guarantee 1 million to the winner they need our entry fee's to pay for it. You aren't going to please everyone so a little change is ok, but I think they should send out surveys to get everyone's opinion's and let the majority rule.
I'm not sure why there has to be a leaderboard at all. It's a handicapping contest; why should contest-specific strategy come into play? I say keep them in the dark.
A few random thoughts from a spectator who is friendly with two of the top ten and a top hundred finisher: Re dart throwing and the early longshots: I am sick and tired of the complaints about Freddy the Chap. He was a half to Charitable Man. Twenty-Six participants (I think) had this horse. How is this a dart throw if 5% of the competitors had it? Sounds like sour grapes to me. Re payouts: I think the entire tournament payout structure was too top heavy. Much was made of the drop between first and second. But is was about 90 cents that was the difference between fourth and seventh, along with a $50,000 payout drop. Re the facilities: TI was a more convenient and accomodating facility over Red Rocks. However, it would have been great to have tellers and betting machines in the smaller ballrooms. I hated leaving the small room, sliding and twisting my way to the front of the big ballroom and then hustling back to the "friends and family" room. It took too long, it disturbed the guys in the big room and I failed to place a few bets due to the inconvenience. All in all, it was a great show. However, I sure would have loved to see the acceptance speeches recorded and uploaded to DRF.
Good story by Watchmaker. ALSO: It was just TOOOO damn hot in that ballroom, and they should have put a 6 foot wide aisle to walk thru, down the middle and side to side. The food was not comparable to years past, and I totally agree with all the mumble jumble coming from the podium, a HUGE distraction.
I was at the NHC this past weekend and I totally disagree with this blackout rule the NHC has. When you compete all year to get to this contest with one million dollars on the line any competitor or handicapper should have the opportunity to know their position and what they need to do to win. In all of sports you ALWAYS know the score and what it will take for the competitors to win and I don't see why this contest should be any different. The NHC ideas are ANTIQUATED and should be brought up to speed. There are enough restrictions in the NHC put upon the handicappers with 8 mandatory bets and capped odds. There is absolutely no reason with today's technology that the NHC can't provide a more efficient and exciting venue for this event. There should be updated odds after every race with a complete computer link to the leaderboard throughout the contest. This is the consensus belief of almost all the players I conversed with this weekend. This contest is for the handicappers not for the DRF/NTRA. We make this contest what it has become and it is time that you elevate this contest out of the DARK AGES and into contemporary standards and more compliant with the handicapper. This past weekend I mathematically had no chance to win anything with my last two bullets but I really felt for the other handicappers engaged in that battle at the end and totally in the dark in where they stood. NHC it time to take the BLINKERS OFF and provide a better product
To avoid confusion as there are two Alan's posting here, I'm once again including my last name in my comment. As one of those so-called "dartboard throwers", I can assure you there is an art and a science to picking longshots. I've now made the NHC in 4 of the last 5 years and have already made it into next year's contest (by finishing in the Top15 in the Tour Top100 Online Challenge last month.) My supposed "dartboard selections" in the NHC on Friday were based on handicapping and determining "playable odds". For example, on Friday my "playable odds" for Freddy the Cap was 12/1 and Melrose Woods was 8/1. These odds were based on Beyer progression, watching video replay of his last race and last workout report for the former selection and pedigree handicapping, workout pattern (weekly 4f-4f-5f-5f-6f-6f-6f for 6.5f race) and last workout report for the latter selection. Should I be punished because the half-sister to Charitable Man went off at 45/1 post-time odds from her 12/1 ML? Just because some horseplayers either don't know how to do it or don't spend the time necessary to do it doesn't mean handicapping longshots is "dartboard throwing"! Keep the caps as is. Alan Levitt
Re: Comment from Alan Levitt I agree, leave the caps where they are. There IS an art to picking longshots and it goes way beyond just taking a stab at a horse simply because it happens to be at double digit odds. I kicked myself all day on the first day of the tourney for not having Freddie The Cap as my selection. I watched this horse win at more than 30-1 in New York in similar front-running style two years ago. That race didn't show up in the PPs because it was so long ago. However, the horse had just run 3rd in it's last start which represented a snap-back to form of sorts, he was 3 for 11 at the day's race distance, and he was facing a highly suspect field. Alas, I outsmarted myself. I noticed he is now 10 years old and decided he probably wasn't capable of running back to form of two years ago. So, I missed him, but I salute those guys who took the shot. I played (and bet) several horses in the tournament that were in excess of 20-1. A couple ran 2nd, one ended up 3rd but should have been moved up to 2nd in the Tampa Bay race where the winner veered out at the wire. I just mention this because I didn't consider these picks as "dart board" longshots without a chance. The truth is guys, if you can't spot good overlays and horses that are ready to outrun their odds, you probably will never contend in a tournament with 480+ handicappers who aren't afraid to go for big prices. Best of luck to all.

I didn't even know I wanted a Twinkie until I could no longer buy one. Then I started hating Unions even more.
GOOOooood. Now when I go postal, I can have a winnable defense.
Well........Since we have one as president.............
Rumors of their demise were greatly exaggerated!
YOU can't kill a twinkie- Qoute Abu-Simpsons..lol
Management was so stupid there that they virtually destroyed the Wonder Bread line of bread, they refused to look at healthier lines of snacks, and added preservatives to bread that changed the taste and texture costing them customers.
I suggest you do some research before blanketly blaming the Union for Hostess failing.

ROFL!! Nice to see that others do the same nutty things I do. I catch myself doing that all the time.Quote:
You can spot well-disciplined gunowners by the fact they tend to keep their trigger fingers off of anything resembling a trigger. I've done it to gas pumps, Windex bottles, etc.
I use a Cordless drill extensively throughout my workday, so I spend a lot of my time holding a gun shaped object in my hand. Some of my coworkers teased me about the way I treated it at first. After a while I decided it was better to treat my drill like a gun than treat my gun like a drill.
Besides it is good practice. I catch myself keeping the point down and away from people and generally handling it like I would a handgun, until I need to use it.
It has become largely unconscious, but there is a downside.
Like some of you, I tend to stand out somewhat. A year ago I narrowly avoided being tackled by a couple of hospital security guards who saw me putting my drill into my toolkit from a distance and thought it was an "uzi" :rolleyes:(dark blue Bosch drill with red decals ???) LOL
I have often wondered how much of their perception was based on my movements.
Just for the record, I had been carrying that day, but since you can\'t legally carry in a hospital my firearm was safely locked away in my vehicle.

Latin America and the Caribbean
PDF (163 KB)Footnote * | Market Reports
Lima, Peru
From resource-rich South America to the resorts of the Caribbean and Central America, Latin America and the Caribbean is a vast and diverse market. In recent years, economic and legal reforms have helped create a more predictable environment for commercial engagement. Global direct investment is flowing to the region, a reflection of its growing significance as home and host to multinational corporations. In fact, foreign investment has been a significant driver of rapid development in the telecommunications sector, which in turn is expected to help raise productivity and living standards throughout the hemisphere. Growing trade with Asia is also providing strong incentives for investment in innovation and infrastructure. Commercial opportunities for Canadian business are plentiful and wide ranging. In Central America and the Caribbean, for example, the tourism industry and infrastructure projects are creating opportunities for environmental services. As well, the mineral and energy-rich Andean countries are important to Canadian extractive industries and offer strong growth potential for Canadian suppliers of related information and communication technologies and environmental products and services. The Government of Canada and Canadian companies play a key role in the promotion of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in the region. Most recently the Government of Canada has announced a CSR strategy for the Canadian International Extractive Sector.
Commercial Relations
- Canadian merchandise exports reached $4.4 billion, while imports reached $10.3 billion.
- Canadian services exportsFootnote 1 were $2.8 billion in 2007, a significant portion of which was in the form of commercial services provided to the Caribbean. Services exports increased by 10.3 percent from 2002 to 2007.
- Canada is currently a major source of foreign direct investment,Footnote 2 with some $93.4 billion in holdings at the end of 2009. Extractive industries constitute an important area of Canadian investment in the region.
Market Opportunities
The Government of Canada has identified Latin America and the Caribbean as a GCS priority market—based on extensive consultation with government, academic and Canadian business and industry representatives—and has developed a comprehensive Market Plan that identifies the following sectors as offering clear market opportunities well suited to Canadian capabilities and interests in the region:
- Building Products and Construction: Specific opportunities for projects, public-private partnerships, and concessions are present in infrastructure projects and value-added products. Tourism projects, notably in the Caribbean, are coming back on track following the recession. Reconstruction in Haiti following the January 2010 earthquake is another important opportunity.
- Electric Power Equipment and Services: Important opportunities come from the generation and transmission sectors through the sale of equipment and engineering services. The countries of Venezuela, Chile and Peru also offer significant growth potential.
- Environmental Industries: Argentina, Barbados, Chile, Ecuador, Guatemala, and Trinidad and Tobago rank among the largest markets for Canadian environmental industries. Across the region, commercial opportunities are evident in water treatment, wastewater management (domestic, commercial, industrial, agricultural), solid waste treatment and studies for project sponsors and financiers.
- Information and Communication Technology (ICT): While Venezuela's massive oil reserves dominate this market, other countries of note include Cuba, Colombia (large oil and gas reserves), Trinidad and Tobago (world-leading exporter of ammonia, methanol and liquefied natural gas), Ecuador and Guyana.
- Oil and Gas Equipment and Services: While Venezuela's massive oil reserves dominate this market, other countries of note include Cuba, Colombia (large oil and gas reserves), Trinidad and Tobago (world-leading exporter of ammonia, methanol and liquefied natural gas), Ecuador and Guyana.
- Mining and Minerals: Canadian mining companies have a significant presence in many countries of the region. This provides opportunities for Canadian suppliers of mining-related goods and services.

Government Leadership and Support
The Government of Canada's overarching objective for Latin America and the Caribbean is to help build a more prosperous, democratic and secure hemisphere and boost Canada's presence in the region. Canadian commercial engagement is a key mechanism for achieving this. In addition to the NAFTA (1994), Canada has ratified Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) in the Americas with Chile (1997), Costa Rica (2002), and Peru (2009). Canada recently signed FTAs with Colombia and Panama.
Canada remains committed to concluding ongoing Free Trade Agreement negotiations with, the Dominican Republic, the Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM) and the Central America Four (CA4) countries of Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua and honduras. As these efforts continue, Canadian officials are also working to monitor and influence commercial policies and regulations in favour of Canadian interests. The Canadian Trade Commissioner Service (TCS) will continue to facilitate Canadian commercial engagement in the region by actively promoting two-way trade, investment, and science and technology exchanges and by supporting Canadian investors already active in the region.
Market Access
Canada has a number of bilateral trade and investment policy instruments in place that are helping to facilitate and support Canadian commercial engagement in the region:
- Canada-Dominican Republic Double Taxation Agreement (DTA)
- Canada-Jamaica DTA
- Canada-Barbados DTA
- Canada-Guyana DTA
- Canada-Argentina Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement (FIPA)

I'd like to know how you find what you may be looking for. There was a page before which permitted to find them even if it wasn't really up to date. But now it seems this page is down.
Actually I'm looking for a movie in particular. "Trancer" or "2002" or even "トランサー ~霊幻警察~". It's with Nicholas Tse.
So 2 questions :
1. Is there a way to find something on any of the clubbox existing ?
2. Does someone know where I can find this movie ?
Thanks anyway ^^

You get -Sin[y] because that is the correct answer. You probably intended
In[4]:= ComplexExpand[(E^(I*y) - E^(-I*y))/(2*I)]
Out[4]= Sin[y]
that is divide by 2 I rather than divide by 2 and *multiply* by

Next, we have a slick little Folding@Home benchmark CD created by notfred, one of the members of Team TR, our excellent Folding team. For the unfamiliar, Folding@Home is a distributed computing project created by folks at Stanford University that investigates how proteins work in the human body, in an attempt to better understand diseases like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and cystic fibrosis. It's a great way to use your PC's spare CPU cycles to help advance medical research. I'd encourage you to visit our distributed computing forum and consider joining our team if you haven't already joined one.
The Folding@Home project uses a number of highly optimized routines to process different types of work units from Stanford's research projects. The Gromacs core, for instance, uses SSE on Intel processors, 3DNow! on AMD processors, and Altivec on PowerPCs. Overall, Folding@Home should be a great example of real-world scientific computing.
notfred's Folding Benchmark CD tests the most common work unit types and estimates the number of points per day that a CPU could earn for a Folding team member. The CD itself is a bootable ISO. The CD boots into Linux, detects the system's processors and Ethernet adapters, picks up an IP address, and downloads the latest versions of the Folding execution cores from Stanford. It then processes a sample work unit of each type.
On a system with two CPU cores, for instance, the CD spins off a Tinker WU on core 1 and an Amber WU on core 2. When either of those WUs are finished, the benchmark moves on to additional WU types, always keeping both cores occupied with some sort of calculation. Should the benchmark run out of new WUs to test, it simply processes another WU in order to prevent any of the cores from going idle as the others finish. Once all four of the WU types have been tested, the benchmark averages the points per day among them. That points-per-day average is then multiplied by the number of cores on the CPU in order to estimate the total number of points per day that CPU might achieve.
This may be a somewhat quirky method of estimating overall performance, but my sense is that it generally ought to work. We've discussed some potential reservations about how it works here, for those who are interested. I have included results for each of the individual WU types below, so you can see how the different CPUs perform on each.
However, the individual results for each unit type tend to get a little wonky because the CPUs with Hyper-Threading are running multiple threads on each core. To get a clear sense of performance for all CPUs, you'll want to focus on the final graph showing total projected points per day.
This is our final benchmark test (phew!), and it's another case where the Athlon II X4 635's four true cores give it the win. Even so, the Core i3-530 delivers more points per day than the Core 2 Quad Q6600, showing that two of today's cores are sometimes superior to four of the prior generation's.

Claudia Lawrence would be 40 next week five years after she vanished – and her family would love to give her a birthday hug.
Her sister Ali Sims and parents Joan and Peter Lawrence are braced for a painful day on Thursday without "Clauds" .
Despite a huge police hunt and numerous appeals, the York university chef's disappearance remains a mystery.
Ali, 43, told the Sunday People: "Claudia would have wanted to celebrate her birthday in style.
"She probably would have had some drinks down her local pub, the Nags Head, with everyone who was special to her.
"We're going to take Mum out for the day to try to keep her occupied so she doesn't think about Clauds not being there."
In the months after Claudia vanished Ali had a recurring dream of her sister walking through the door, smiling.
She said: "If only that dream could come true.
"I long so much for the day my sister comes home. All I want to do is give her a hug."
Ali, who lives with husband Danny, 40, and sons aged nine and five in Derbyshire's Peak District, said one of the most difficult things to deal with is that her youngest boy has no recollection of her sister.
The five-year-old will often ask, pointing to a picture of Claudia on the mantelpiece: "Who's that strange lady?"
He was only six months old when his aunt failed to turn up at the University of York's Goodricke College for the start of her 6am shift on March 19, 2009.
The day before she had been spotted on CCTV near home in Heworth, York, walking back from work.
And that night she chatted to her mum Joan , 70, on the phone before texting a friend at 8.23pm to arrange meeting later that week.
At 9.12pm another friend texted but she never replied.
Five years later North Yorkshire Police still have no clue as to what happened, despite interviewing 800 people, combing CCTV and searching property.
Ali said: "Not knowing is so hard. Every day I live in dread of bad news.
"There is a new police team reviewing the case.
"They said they want to start from scratch in the hope a pair of fresh eyes will bring up something new.
"In October forensic officers went back into Claud's house but if they found anything interesting they didn't tell us.
"I'm pleased they haven't forgotten her but also I dread what they might find.
"What makes me so angry is that there is someone out there who has abducted my sister who has got away with it for five years without being brought to justice.
"What if that person abducts another woman?"
Ali was distraught when now-retired Detective Chief Supt Ray Galloway referred to her sister's "complex" and "mysterious" private life on BBC's Crimewatch in June 2009.
She said: "The Press really latched on to this and started making her out to be some kind of man-eater.
"It was awful.
"I fear that might have stopped people coming forward with vital information."
She said Claudia started seeing builder Paddy McGinty, now 50, in the mid-1990s and they had a 10-year on-off relationship.
After splitting from Paddy, Claudia dated insurance broker Dan Whitehand for 18 months before having a brief relationship with a married man.
Ali said: "Paddy, Dan and this other married man were her only three significant relationships."
Now training to take part in the Miles for Missing People 10km race in London in May organised by the charity Missing People, Ali added: "I've come to the conclusion she must have been abducted by a stranger.
"Until there is any evidence to say otherwise I'm holding out she is alive and being held somewhere against her will.
"We've been through utter hell for five years and if there is someone who knows something , please, just tell the police."

Oh, to be organized! With oodles of appetizer recipes, and recipes for the family floating around the internet and around your kitchen, wouldn't it be nice to keep track of them?
The simple days
It used to be so simple. Did you watch your mom collect recipe cards from friends, or perhaps she had some that were handed down from her mother? The neat little 3 by 5 cards were filed in a box that was kept on a kitchen shelf. Perhaps there were favorites bookmarked in a cookbook. Mom always knew where they were.
The chaos
Now, though, we can easily pick up appetizer recipes online. It is almost overwhelming how many results you can get from a single, specific search. Which ones do you try, and how do you keep track of them? Just take a look at the myriad of cookbooks on store shelves. You could cook a different meal every day of your life and never get through all the published recipes!
Online help
If you like order in your kitchen, but also like to browse for, and prepare online recipes, then there is hope. There are tools that can help even the most disorganized among us.
- One online tool that allows you to handle several functions is Cook'n. It is a roughly $80 investment, but it allows you to get nutritional information about recipes, generate shopping lists, print family cookbooks, and sync with your iPhone or Android.
- If you like the tech of online recipe organizers, then bigoven ($30) might be for you. It comes with some recipes and allows you to add your own.
- If you're looking for a free tool, AZZ card file is customizable. No need to fit recipes in predetermined categories, this allows you to create your own.
If you're a serious recipe junkie, you can always get a device to help you find, track, and sort. Read here for a review on the Demy recipe reader, and how the Apple iPad can assist you too.
The traditionalist
Not everyone wants to preserve their recipes online. If you have some favorites that were handed down, like a family recipe card handwritten by your grandmother, or an appetizer recipe torn from a magazine with a fabulous photo, you may want to organize the old-fashioned way.
Using a three-ring binder is your best option. You can use plastic page protectors and slip your recipe pages inside. There are pages made to hold 3×5 index cards too. If you have a recipe card that is larger, attach it to a sheet of paper and slip it into a full plastic page.
For those handwritten, sentimental favorites, try laminating them first for extra protection.
The system
Everyone has a sorting system for recipes. You may categorize by side dishes, hors d'oeuvres, meats, seafood, grilling, salads, dessert etc... or you may simply sort by main dish, side dish, appetizer. Whatever your system, if you have a lot of recipes it's helpful to either keep them alphabetically for easy access, or to develop a sub-category.
If you have a main dish category, you can separate the casseroles from the grilled items and from the regular baked or roasted dishes. Within that, you can even separate once again by type of ingredient (chicken, beef, vegetarian). This will help you zero in on exactly what you're looking for.
If you have a recipe that fits more than one category – for instance, an appetizer recipe that could also be used as a side, or a dinner that could be tweaked for use as an appetizer, place a copy in both categories. This way, you won't forget about that recipe if you're looking at the category it's not typically used for.
The take away
Whatever system you use, whether it's high tech, or traditional, keeping yourself organized in the kitchen feels good. When it comes time to figure out what you want to make, you can spend less time sorting through recipes, and more time creating dishes that will wow your family or guests.

Jason Aaron on Ultimate Cap, New 'Alias' from Bendis, Sara Pichelli on Ultimate Spidey [NYCC]
Marvel's final presentation of New York Comic Con 2010 was the Next Big Thing panel on Sunday, which featured a host of announcements, including that Jason Aaron and artist Ron Garney will be launching an Ultimate Captain America miniseries, Sara Pichelli will be taking over the art on Ultimate Spider-Man, and a new "Alias" series from Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Gaydos is in the works.Moderator and Manager of Sales and Communications Arune Singh was joined on stage by Senior Editor Mark Paniccia, Executive Vice President of Marvel TV Jeph Loeb, "Avengers" writer Brian Michael Bendis, "Incredible Herc" writer Greg Pak, "Shadowland: Power Man" writer Fred Van Lente, "Amazing Spider-Man" writer Dan Slott, "Wolverine" writer Jason Aaron, and "Thanos Imperative" writers Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning. After singing "Happy Birthday" to Singh, the audience was treated to panel announcements on everything from "Ultimate Comics Spider-Man" and an all-new "Ultimate Comics Captain America" miniseries.
ON "ULTIMATE COMICS CAPTAIN AMERICA": Jason Aaron and Ron Garney are getting the band back together after their run on "Wolverine: Weapon X," launching a brand new Ultimate Captain America miniseries in January 2011. New enemies are appearing out of the shadows and the past is coming back to haunt Captain America, particularly the Captain America of the Vietnam War. After the war, the Vietnam-era Captain America felt disillusioned and disappeared into the jungle. Now that Captain America is back, the Vietnam-era Cap wants to teach him a lesson about America. Aaron and Garney are going to be revealing new secrets from the Super Soldier Project, too, so the series sounds like a nice mix of supremely violent action (as you can see in the preview art) and revelations about Cap.
ON "ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN": All-star artist Sara Pichelli is joining the "Ultimate Spider-Man" creative team. Current artist David LaFuente is staying on the flagship title of the Ultimate line, but he and Pichelli will alternate arcs. It seems like Marvel may be trying to move back to publishing a high number of issues of "Ultimate Spider-Man" a year, like they did when the superfast Mark Bagley was drawing the book. Pichelli's style is complementary to LaFuente's, but a bit more realistic overall, particularly in the facial expressions. Pichelli is joining the team in October 2010, with issues #15 and #16, and then issue #151 (after the renumbering of the series, of course) will be her first full story ar
ON "THANOS IMPERATIVE": The end of "Thanos Imperative" is not the end of Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning's stint guiding Marvel's cosmic characters. They have a one-shot coming out soon called "Devastation" that provides a capstone to their run. After the cosmic work wraps, the writers, also known as DnA, are going to take on Marvel's well-loved "Heroes for Hire" franchise in December. The series is a non-traditional team-up comic, both in terms of cast and approach. Singh mentioned that the last page of the first issue is a doozy, and one that is impossible to guess.
ON "CHAOS WAR": Greg Pak and Fred Van Lente's "Chaos War" sold out before it hit store shelves, and looks to be an official hit.
ON THE 50th ANNIVERSARY OF "FANTASTIC FOUR": Marvel's First Family turns 50 next year, and they're celebrating that anniversary with… the death of a major character? Singh went on to say, "This time next year, there will not be a series titled 'Fantastic Four.'" The next few months will feature variant covers by superstar artist Paolo Rivera showing the Fantastic Four through the years, and the first features a very classic take on the family.
ON JEPH LOEB'S "ULTIMATE" WORK: Jeph Loeb said that Arthur Adams is "doing the work of his career" on "Ultimate X," and called it "amazing, amazing work." However, there is a new addition to the Arthur Adams/Joyce Chin family, with the recent arrival of Alexandra Adams, their first child. The new baby required an adjustment in the schedule for the series, but Loeb insists that "Ultimate X" #4 will be out within the next month. He teased that "Ultimate X" #5 will introduce the Hulk into the series. "New Ultimates" will wrap up its current story arc by the end of the year, and includes a few surprise twists.
ON "ALIAS": The panelists revealed that Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Gaydos intend to launch a new "Alias" title starring Jessica Jones and following up on her activities in the Avengers titles. This project won't be coming before the end of 2011, though.

For a man generally so unhurried on the pitch and off it, David Silva suddenly speaks with urgent defiance. The Manchester City playmaker is discussing the World Cup, and one of the biggest questions underscoring Brazil 2014: are Spain's defending champions finally past their best?
"I don't think we've declined," Silva insists. "It's very difficult to maintain that level after so many years, especially after winning three trophies, that nobody has done."
There's a clear edge to the response, as he emphasises Spain's unprecedented achievement in winning successive European Championships and a World Cup over the last six years. There's also a strong sense the suggestion badly bothers this squad, especially since Silva is known as one of its most laid-back members. That defiance may well be crucial for them.
There can be no disputing Spain's aura of excellence has been affected over the last year, to the point they are no longer favourites for the World Cup. Their last trip to Brazil seemed to confirm that, as the host nation took them apart in the 2013 Confederations Cup final. That 3-0 humiliation was not just this Spanish generation's biggest defeat in a competitive game since winning Euro 2008. It again raised questions about their style of play, and the physical state of so many established players. The likes of Xavi looked like six years of success had caught up with them.
At 28, though, Silva is one of Spain's few key players who could be considered in his absolute prime. He has just enjoyed one of his most impressive seasons, winning the Premier League title at Manchester City. Silva also produced one of the champions' most urgently defiant moments, scoring a divine opening goal in the 2-0 win at Hull City just five minutes after Vincent Kompany's early red card.
"I think I'm in a good moment," Silva says. "I'm happy here [in Manchester] too."
That is crucial given interest in him from Barcelona, as he remains one of the few starting players from outside Spain's big two clubs.
"These four years I've been here, I feel good, and I think things have come out well. It's more physical here, quicker. You have to adapt and still apply your own good qualities, but while learning others. I think you do pick up experience. You're more adult, especially football-wise, and that helps."
Since he made his debut in the 1–0 friendly home defeat against Romania in November 2006, Silva has grown into one of Spain's central players. During the victorious Euro 2012 campaign, he was deployed as the much-discussed "false nine", in a system many thought boring.
"Boring?" Silva bristles. "In the end, we won! And, on top of that, we won the final [against Italy] 4-0. Boring, nah... to win 4-0 and in games like that is hugely difficult."
Silva also argues the system was merely a response to the extreme defensive football Spain faced. Their dominance of possession has meant opponents looking to deny all space around the box. He points to one of Spain's main rivals, and how Germany set up in the 2010 semi-final.
"They came like... with a little fear. The game started and they didn't play like they had beforehand, when they won so many games so well. There was a lot of respect towards us. They knew that, if they gave us space, we can do a lot of damage.
"It is difficult. When a team puts everyone back, but we adapted and, every time, we've got better."
The question after the Brazil defeat is whether the rest are adapting to Spain and stopped paying the defending champions too much respect. Silva points to the defiant response: Spain won 1-0 in the vital qualification match away to France.
"Brazil are an incredible team, they beat us in the Confederations, but this is a different context. That's the past, no? We have to think of the present. I believe we qualified very well for the World Cup, in a difficult group, with France, who deserve respect. I believe we're on good form.
"There is the age [of some players], but you never know in football. I think the future is good. A lot of young players are coming through, good players, putting pressure on."
One of those is Atletico Madrid's Diego Costa, who switched nationality from Brazil, and provides Spain with the prime striker they lacked in Euro 2012. Silva praises "his pace, his power". Costa is the one major change to the team, but Silva maintains Spain do not need to alter their style. He again becomes animated.
"Why would we change? We've done very well with this style. There's no need to change it."
No side has retained the World Cup since Brazil in 1962, no team has won four major international trophies in a row, no European team has won one in South America.
"But stats are there to be broken..." Spain have done that before.

I have been having a very frustrated time researching the problem with my wifes car. This seemed like the best place to go for answers.
My wife and I bought a used 2006 Chevy Malibu 2.2 LT. after a couple of months my wife told me that the DIC on the radio showed a power steering warning. After looking for the Power steering fluid reservoir I called the dealership and found out that it has an power steering electrical assist motor inside the steering column. This is very new to me. I have read a ton of posts about the 2005 Chevy Malibu listed in a TSB and it being fixed by the dealership but nothing about the 2006. One person said the 2006 is also covered up to 70,000 miles but I can't find any information to support that. I am taking it in on Monday to the dealership and it would be very helpful to know if this problem is covered under one of the technical service bulletins so I don't have to pay big money to get this fixed. If anyone has a TSB Description that they can post it would be most helpful. I was going to pay for one but there are about 6 choices for 2006 power steering tsb's and I have no idea if any of them cover my car. Thank you in advance for any feedback on my situation!

The Last Hunt is a novel of man's quest for power; power over life and death, power over wealth, power over the uncontrollable progression of events, or what we often comfortably call... Destiny. It is also a novel of the early decade of Russia without communist rule. An African Safari becomes the battle ground for the Russian oligarchs' conflict for power and the Hunt itself turns into the catalyst for resolving hatreds, rivalries and ambitions.

"While there are positive aspects to this budget, dealing with the nation's unsustainable structural deficit is not one of them," says Robert L. Bixby, executive director of the Concord Coalition. Bixby expressed disappointment that the plan incorporated few of the recommendations from the fiscal commission. "The president has not rejected these proposals, thus leaving them on the table for future consideration, but his budget does not move the ball forward on many of them."

Troy Bilt/MTD ztr hydrostatic motors
I got a buy i could not pass up on a little used Troy Bilt Mustang 50 inch ZTR. It's a 2007 with 160 hours and garage kept for $800.
Now I see that the drive motors are sealed units that cost many $$$$$. I have no problems yet with the motors but am wondering if I should sell this while I am ahead?
for future reference. Is there any cheap source for the motors? Work around on unsealing and repairing motors. Anybody that rebuilds them. I have searched the web and found nothing except adding fluid through the breather tube.
Thanks in advance JIm
Just use it and forget about it.
Most likly you will never have to mess with them.
That said, there is no such thing as a cheap source for replacement hydrostats. If/when they go, the cost of dealing with that problem will be higher than the value of the mower.
If it were my mower, I'd drive it till it drops.

Alabama marks site of Martin Luther King Jr.'s 1963 jail letter
By Verna Gates
BIRMINGHAM, Alabama (Reuters) - Martin Luther King Jr.'s daughter helped unveil a historical marker on Tuesday in the Alabama city where he penned his famous "Letter from Birmingham Jail," as people worldwide held readings to mark the 50th anniversary of the civil rights leader's words.
More than 100 people gathered outside a former jail in Birmingham, Alabama, to commemorate the letter, which King wrote from a jail cell on April 16, 1963, in response to eight white clergymen who criticized his demonstrations against segregation as "unwise and untimely."
King had been arrested for violating a law against mass public demonstrations in a southern U.S. city rife with racial unrest. His letter, an important document from the civil rights movement, contains the oft-quoted line "injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."
"The City of Birmingham tried to run him out of town and now is honoring him as one of their heroes. How times have changed," said King's youngest daughter, Bernice King, who serves as chief executive officer of the King Center in Atlanta.
Bernice King joined Alabama's governor and other elected officials at a ceremony for the new marker outside the former jail, now an administrative office for the Birmingham Police Department.
The original jail cell is on display at the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute.
Her father wrote the lengthy letter in the margins of a newspaper, on scraps of paper from a black jail trustee and, finally, on paper brought in by King's lawyers.
He chastised the slow path to justice preferred by white moderates, whom he called "the Negro's great stumbling block." Continued...

On the Internet, there are almost no barriers against international commerce. Except for language. Unfortunately, most software is still written in English. Java Internationalization shows how to write software that is truly multi-lingual, using Unicode, a standard system that supports hundreds of character sets for most modern languages and many ancient ones. English-only software is already obsolete. Java Internationalization brings Java developers up to speed on the new generation of software development: writing software that is no longer limited by language boundaries.This book explores Java Unicode and provides concrete examples for using its features to create multilingual user interfaces; to correctly format currency, dates and times; and to ensure font support for different languages.
Andrew Deitsch is a software engineer who manages an e-business group at GE's Corporate Research and Development Center in Niskayuna, New York. Andrew was fortunate enough to be involved in the beta release of Java in 1995 and has been programming in the language ever since. The inspiration for this book came from his efforts to use Java effectively to build internationalized applications and his frustrations in not finding any books related to this important topic.

David Czarnecki is a computer scientist in the Internet and Software Technology Laboratory at the GE Corporate Research and Development Center. He is involved with various e-commerce initiatives and projects, and in recent months has been increasingly involved in providing expertise on how to properly internationalize software.

Java Internationalization Review
By David Ayman Shamma
from Undisclosed
Comments about oreilly Java Internationalization:
This book, being the only one of its sort, is the way to go if you need to internationalize your java application. The book covers the basics of internationalization on through more tricky elements, from locale sensitive stringreplacement on through web input methods. While the book gives you insight into the design model of java i18n, it doesn't gointo exacting super accurate detail. Likely the ever changing java api attributes to this.The book is good, the examples are supurb. Just I found a few things (relating to input methods) that had me going to java.sun.com to find answers to.

By Peter Mork
Hi,I had the opportunity to look at the draft version of this book, shortly before it was due to be published. As I am an internationalization engineer, so this book was definitely a hit with me. The content is very organized and attempts to cover every aspect of this field; the authors must have put in a lot of work. A few notes:- I liked the chapter about writing systems, because it covered the more obscure stuff as well, which I am not familiar with.- The date/time/number formatting chapter is maybe a little bit too verbose. It goes into great details on something rather straightforward, things that anybody can easily figure out from the API reference of the relevant classes.- My experience shows that most code developes, managers, testers and other software folks strongly believe that 'localization is just translation' and there is no need for investment on internationalization at all. The best way to convince these people is to show actual examples of cases when a software was not internationalized and caused revenue losses to a company. I can't recall seeing too many examples in the book; probably because the autors took it for granted that the reader is aware of the importance of this topic. - I had to write a 'JSP internationalization' document for in-house use in our company and I overlooked a tricky issue. It was somewhat satisfying to see that the JSP chapter of this book overlooked the same issue, too ;-) But maybe I am too cheeky with this. I will publish the problem and its solution once I have fully investigated it myself.All in all, I think this is a very good book; it will be a great reference material for anyone involved in internationalization in any way.Hope this helps,Peter

Desperation is a stinky cologne, Rahm…
posted at 1:32 pm on August 7, 2009 by MadisonConservative
This article really caught my eye, coming as it is during the health care situation:
White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel warned liberal groups this week to stop running ads against Democratic members of Congress.
The powerful top aide to President Obama made his feelings known at the weekly closed-door strategy session of an array of progressive organizations, according to two sources who were there.
Emanuel's request came on the same day that Obama himself told a meeting of Democratic senators that he didn't like seeing dollars used by liberal groups to target congressional Democrats.
Some on the left believe administration officials are making such statements only as a favor to Democratic legislators whose votes they'll ultimately need.
If liberal groups want to go after Blue Dogs, great. Maybe we'll get some defectors. They can have Lindsey Graham and Olympia Snowe.
However, there's something more delicious in this. Why would Rahm be going after the Blue Dogs if the White House had enough RINO turncoats tucked away for ObamaCare? I can't believe he'd be ginning this up to go after Cap-and-Trade, because that would be even too presumptuous for this administration. They're expending all their political capital to get their health care reform passed, and the fact that he's now telling the MoveOns of the country to back off shows that this is a very desperate situation for them. They've got control of Congress already, and while I'm sure the last thing they'd like to see is 2010 : Contact with America II, supposedly they could pass anything without threat of a filibuster.
No They Can't.

A few days ago we learned that Samsung Galaxy Tab's parts are worth $205 and now there is a video data of the device's dissection. It reveals that the Tab posseses quite a huge battery. That's hardly surprising when you look at the specs of the device – it reveals a 4000 mAh battery...

It's not only the narrative tension that turns on interlocking screws in Glyndebourne's production of Britten's claustrophobic masterpiece.
So, too, does everything on stage: the floor consists of concentric circuits which make chairs appear to move unaided and the spectre of Miss Jessel to glide away in the best ghostly fashion. The windows turn too, turning the haunted house inside out, and with all of this turns the Governess's mind, and our own.
Where better than Glyndebourne itself as the setting? The home movie at the start was filmed in the gardens; when you emerge at half time it's as if you're in the opera, and this is not a comfortable opera to be in. Jonathan Kent's staging perhaps falls slightly short of the intense detail and consistency of David McVicar's for English National Opera; since the two opening scenes use film projections to great effect, and Peter Quint in the prologue toys with Miles's red-sailed boat, it seems odd that neither idea is followed through later. Still, it's spectacular nonetheless, aided by extra twists of ambiguity as the apparent domestic cosiness – standard lamps, comfy armchairs, a Christmas tree and apparently normal, high-spirited games – makes the drowning of the children's 'ceremony of innocence' by the ghosts that perch on their beds even more agonising.
And what a cast. Miah Persson, the rising soprano of the moment, is an ideal Governess, as pure in tone as in spirit. The unquenchable Susan Bickley, fresh from her much-deserved accolade at the Royal Philharmonic Society Awards, is Mrs Grose, the housekeeper, matching Persson notch for notch in character, power and diction. They need to be strong to face these ghosts: the charm of Toby Spence's stage presence and the range of his ever-more magnificent voice – travelling effortlessly from persuasive whisper to ferocious possession – make Peter Quint all too believable, while as the drowned Miss Jessel, Giselle Allen is a radiantly horrible queen of tragedy. In the pit, the London Philharmonic under the baton of Jakub Hrusa is transformed into a virtuoso chamber ensemble.
It's quite a line-up for the children to match, but Joanna Songi's Flora offers both vocal beauty and bite, and as Miles – the inevitable Britten boy, veering between angel and demon – Thomas Parfitt is focused and heart-rending. This performance happened to be the day he turned 13; anyone passing the staff canteen during the break might have heard the entire cast singing him 'Happy Birthday'.Reuse content
