Tuli Wilderness offers a wonderful natural location to awaken the explorer in you and to enjoy an authentic wilderness experience reminiscent of Africa a century ago.
Situated on an exclusive concession in the vast Northern Tuli Game Reserve in eastern Botswana, Tuli Wilderness is owner-managed by Stuart Quinn who has a wealth of experience in the southern African wildlife tourism, hospitality and training industry.
One has a wide variety of choices in the activities and accommodation that we offer, from professionally-guided game drives and walks in our tented safari camp to tough wilderness experiences sleeping on the ground amongst the elements to self-catering camping to luxurious walking experiences. Regardless as to what one is looking for, a memorable and exceptional personal experience will be found at Tuli Wilderness.
The Northern Tuli Game Reserve boasts the world's largest elephant population on privately owned land and elephant viewing is unparalleled with some incredible sightings, providing fantastic photographic opportunities. Lion, leopard, cheetah, wild dog, spotted and brown hyaena are amongst the many carnivore species that occur on the reserve. Night drives provide sightings of the more elusive nocturnal creatures. Large herds of free-roaming eland, zebra and wildebeest are seen regularly and many other plains game are also found in the area.
Birding at Tuli Wilderness is excellent with over 370 species identified in the area. Species range from Pel's Fishing Owl, Secretarybird, African Hawk Eagle and Southern Ground-Hornbill to Three-banded Courser and Dusky Lark. We have a resident pair of breeding Verreaux's (Black) Eagles at Eagle Rock.
Whilst the dominant cover is Mopane, the tall Apple-leaf and gigantic Mashatu trees are numerous and groves of Acacia occur in some areas of Tuli. The Sesame bush, with its swollen stems and angular stiff branches grows prolifically alongside the rocky ridges.
Tuli Wilderness borders on the Limpopo River in the south and on the Motloutse River in the east and many small tributaries of these rivers criss-cross the land in between. The landscapes are diverse ranging from riverine forests through alluvial floodplains to Mopane veld and interesting sandstone ridges.
The Tuli area is rich in archaeological heritage and beautiful San rock art sites have been discovered alongside numerous archaeological sites dating back from the Stone Age. Scattered artifacts are still being discovered over the concession.
We look forward to seeing you in one of our camps, on one of our experiences or have you join us on a trail or 'African Walking Safari'.

/// What Is the Software Defined Data Center and Why Is It Important?
June 13, 2013 | All Things Digital
Image copyright isak55 In every emerging technology market, hype seems to wax and wane. One day a new technology is red hot, the next day it's old hat. Sometimes the hype tends to pan out and concepts such as "e-commerce" become a normal way to shop. Other times the hype doesn't meet expectations, and consumers don't buy into paying for e-commerce using Beenz or Flooz . Apparently, Whoopi Goldberg and a slew of big name VCs ended up making a bad bet on the e-currency market in the late 1990s. Whoopi was paid in cash and shares of Flooz.

Pest toad turned into princely footwear
The warty and toxic cane toad may be the most reviled animal in Australia, but a charity has devised a way to make good use of the invasive pests – fashioning them into sneakers fit for a prince.
Efforts to eradicate the repulsive hopper, a prolific breeder which has spread widely in the country's tropical reaches since being introduced to kill beetles in the 1930s, have included killing them with golf clubs and driving over them.
But Rupert Noffs hopes the shoes he and his brother Matt have devised will be a kinder way of depleting the numbers of the incredibly tough amphibian which secretes a poison which can kill pets and wildlife and injure humans.
He says that people who have seen the sneakers – which combine kangaroo leather with a cane toad detail – are taken aback at how a loathsome creature can be converted into a fashion statement.
"Sometimes when people first see them they kinda freak out and then they go 'Actually, it's quite beautiful'," he said ahead of the Gideon Shoes launch in Sydney last week.
"They dye them, we've got them in blue, gold, red, pink, black and they are actually really beautiful. They are very durable, and as we all know, they are pests, so what better way to use them after they've been put down?"
Mr Noffs, who described cane toads as "totally gross" said even he had to be convinced that the hide would be a suitable component for the fashion line he and his brotherwant to use to fund their charitable works.
But having just come back from New York where the shoe's concept was well received and with celebrities such as Jay Kay from Jamiroquai taking a pair, he is hopeful consumers will take to them the way cane toads took to Australia.
He said he tells people: "Someone has kissed them and turned them into a handsome little sneaker."
Rupert, 27, and his 30-year-old brother Matt decided to make the shoes as part of a fashion line they are hoping will fund an expansion of their outreach programmes for young people struggling with drug addiction, homelessness and other problems.
The name Noffs is well known in Sydney, where Rupert's late grandfather Ted Noffs established the Wayside Chapel in Kings Cross in the 1960s to offer refuge to those living on the streets.
The brothers have stuck with the family business, with Rupert setting up the One Noffs fashion store for recycled and redesigned clothes and brother Matt and his wife establishing the Street University in western Sydney to help young people.

Canadian Art Authentication: Before you begin
* Before entering into a full investigation of the legitimacy of a work of art, be it academic, forensic or as with most cases, both, it is essential to know if the project is at all viable and possibly provable. Much as you would need to know if you were taking a legal case to court.
Logically, if it is not, you should not attempt it, as the risk of failure is too high.
So we always prefer to make a preliminary and vital professional pre - authentication assessment for clients first. This is a study based upon the images you supply, the details and the items history.
This is a logical & cost effective professional assessment and advisory for which there is a modest set fee.
Please see our FAQ's which explains the process in detail.
Old Stump, Lake Superior
Canadian art has long been a collector favourite with both homespun Canadian art collectors and international art investors alike.
It seemed to blossom & grow up overnight, with the first million dollar painting coming from Canadian Group of Seven artist Tom Thomson.
After that the flood gates opened and Canadian art prices exploded.
As soon as face values for Canadian art started to rocket and get to that serious level, along came the even more serious fakers. Amongst them a British faker called Tom Keating who concentrated all his efforts on Canada's most famous and popular artist of the 1800's, Cornelius David Kreighoff, a Dutchman who settled in Canada.
Krieghoff depicted beautifully the Canadian landscape and its peoples, both indigenous and settler and was and still is hugely collectible. Tom Keating claimed before he died to have painted over 150 Cornelius Krieghoff paintings which have been sold into the market and until today have never been identified. This fact remains undisputed as Krieghoff is one of Canada's most faked artists, but rest assured, not their only one!
PS: I was privileged to visit the beautiful mansion of Frank Sobey in Nova Scotia and was enthralled to see a dining room full of Kreighoff's, but it did pass my mind ?
Krieghoff Fakes . ^ Watercolour
Krieghoff fake pastel
This signature (above) photographed forensically
by Freemanart appeared on a painting dated 1937
which we were asked to authenticate.
Potentially it was very valuable.
The saving grace for the client, was that Freemanart,
identified acrylic hairs embedded in the paint. Acrylic
being an invention and product of the 60's, not the 1930's!
The Canadian Group of Seven:
The Canadian Group of Seven', were a gropu consisting of Canadian artists; Tom Thomson, Dr. A Y Jackson, Lawren Harris, Frank (Franz) Johnson, J. E. H. MacDonald, Arthur Lismer, A.J. (Alfred Joseph) Casson, Frederick Varley, and Franklin Carmichael,) They are arguably the most elite group of artists in Canadian History and certainly command large sums of money for their distinctive, truly Canadian paintings.
Inevitably Canadian art works are faked and emulated too with many 'pot boilers,' or look alike works by 'followers' of the Group of Seven which have appeared at auction with altered or added signatures and brand new names, always effected to deceive and increase value. It's called fraud no matter how you dress it up.
Canada proudly sports its fair share of Naive school artists too, including Maud Lewis. There are now a huge number of fakes of her works.
An authentic Maud Lewis And a Fake Maud Lewis
Paul Kane: Scene in the Northwest: Portrait of John Henry Lefroy.
The most expensive painting to sell at auction in Canada is still Paul Kane's "Scene in the Northwest: A Portrait of John Henry Lefroy" which sold
for a staggering $5,062,500 (5.5 Million) dollars in 2002.
Art authentication is not about guesswork and certainly not about wishful opinion.
It is a world where there is little room for conjecture and is all about reality.
Most normal human beings are naturally guided here by a dream. A dream that what they have may just be something special after all. They are beguiled by that magical possibility. A possibility that what they believe to be true, what they have been told is true or what they want to believe is true, is actually true!
But do remember, with authentication, that dream has to be absolutely proven. Just like a case placed before a court of law.
In court, any case must be proven and adjudged convincingly, without a shadow of doubt and proven in many different ways; academically, forensically and in reality. All of this has to be achievable before the the work can be pronounced absolutely authentic.
Before you get into the procedures minefield which can evolve with art authentication, a field which may be both financially and emotionally taxing, it is more than wise to be realistic about the issue and have an independent 'preliminary assessment' conducted first.
A pre authentication assessment, is a professional assessment which is based upon reality. It balances the viability of your work of art and its background and assesses the possibility based on our past experiences, that the case may be realistically followed through and eventually possibly be proven.
The advice you get will be invaluable and based upon the simple question; Is there any reality in the possibility that the work of art could be right, can we diminish the risks and do we have any serious chance achieving our objective?
If a project is literally not achievable and not provable, surely it would be sensible to know that from the start!
Such an assessment then allows the client to make a wiser, considered decision and apply a greater degree of sensibility in taking the leap into a staged, full blown authentication investigation.
It makes a great deal of sense.
CONTACT US for that advice.

Aboriginal Art & Fakes
Some of Canada's best and truly 'Canadian' masterpieces can be attributed to a monumental First Nation talent called Norval Morriseau whose life and times is covered far more eminently by other commentators on the internet. However, he is not the only great first nation talent.
Norval Morrisseau a native Ojibway, was giant amongst North American aboriginal artists and remains so today but even before his death in 2007, Norval Morrisseau works of art were appearing on the market which he had nothing to do with.
It is a difficult situation here because you have to consider the number of highly principalled emulators who worked under him and around him during his life, students and admires alike, who were both copying his style, manner and sometimes his works themselves recreating his works of art religiously.
In the main, this was for sound reasons and this fact should be counterbalance against to down and out crooks and fraudsters who are mind set to introduce new and 'fake' Morriseau works into the Canadian ART market.
Not so difficult through some schemes and methods, often reported, by collusion.
However, Morriseau is not the only faked aboriginal artist or aboriginal style by any means.
Haida art from the west coast is big business with , masks, weavings and carvings being amongst the fake fodder.
Both Inuit Eskimo and Native American art have gained massive international recognition as investible and therefore valuable art forms over the past few decades. Inuit Eskimo soapstone carvings fetch large amounts of money too and with it, a reputation for being falsified and reproduced.

Tisiphone boasts how Rome, through her machinations, has kept Christendom in discord.
Their names (see l. 24) were Megaera, Alecto, and Tisiphone.
Sudden as lightning Tisiphone reached the spot, and plunged a dagger in his heart.
Orpheus is about to turn back, but he is stopped by Tisiphone.
An iron tower stood by the gate, on which Tisiphone, the avenging Fury, kept guard.
The noble peer under the figure of Tisiphone, led the troop.
Their names were Alecto, Megra, and Tisiphone, and their origin was variously accounted for.
Or shall we constitute him friseur to Tisiphone, and make him curl up her locks with his satires and libels?
At that moment Captain Resistance fell dead, pierced by an arrow from Tisiphone.

Mother Nature Delays Softball Homestand
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The Green Bay (18-18, 5-10 HL) softball team will play six games over the next week against Horizon League opponents with the anticipation of keeping its postseason hopes alive for the Horizon League Championship.
The Phoenix has not only had to battle opponents on the field this season but also Mother Nature. To date, Green Bay's lone home games this year were two wins against South Dakota State on April 14. Its recent three-game series sweep against Detroit on April 23 and 24 was moved to Alverno College in Milwaukee due to the spring snowfall in Green Bay.
With the recent rainfall, Green Bay's three-game series scheduled to begin Wednesday against UIC (19-18, 9-6 HL) has been pushed back to Thursday beginning at 2:00 p.m. with a doubleheader. The series will wrap up Friday, April 29 at 12:00 p.m.
Admission to all games is free and will be held at Ben Garot Field.

Sometimes you have to
Pros: Can be sanitized, dishwasher safe, light
I love my end grain boards at home. Sometimes the kitchen you're in has rules about sanitizing. These are much easier to clean. You see them in lots of sushi bars because they're okay on the edges of high end knives. They can be sanitized and even thrown in the dishwasher, no chance of warping or cracking. If they do get cut into and scratched up (takes a while), you can sand it down a little.
If I'm doing BBQ catering or a dinner party at someone else's house, I'll pack this in the car just in case I don't like their cutting board (probably don't). It's a lot easier than moving the big heavy end grain block I have.

Enterprise Transformations in the Digital Economy
Enterprise Transformations in the Digital Economy (T-Lab) explores, through case studies, executive visits, and hands-on projects, what established companies must do to transform themselves for success in the digital age.
Business leaders are excited about the possibilities inherent in the newest technologies, such as those presented by SMACIT (social, mobile, analytics, cloud, internet of things). They introduce these tools and techniques and allocate resources for their deployment, but they are often disappointed with the results. Why? Because technologies and markets tend to change much faster than people, systems, and institutions. This natural misalignment creates fascinating, and often perplexing, business challenges. It also creates opportunities for companies who manage these technologies most effectively to gain a competitive advantage.
T-Lab, based primarily on research conducted at MIT Sloan's Center for Information Systems Research (CISR), is intended to help students become more effective leaders or consultants in an increasingly global and fast-paced business environment. Students will apply their learning in action learning projects that partner student teams with leaders from selected CISR sponsor companies —all large global firms. Most projects may be conducted remotely, and a few may offer optional site visits during spring break. Sponsoring companies will specify project requirements, and students will select from a wide variety of project proposals. Student teams will present their recommendations both to their project sponsors and to their classmates.
For further information about T-Lab, please read this course overview. Potential project sponsors should begin the proposal process by creating an Action Learning account and then completing the application process.

Fuggin' lowlife.
PHILADELPHIA — A 21-year-old New Jersey man pleaded guilty Tuesday to vomiting on another spectator and his 11-year-old daughter in the stands during a Philadelphia Phillies game.
Matthew Clemmens, of Cherry Hill, N.J., pleaded guilty to one count each of simple assault, disorderly conduct and harassment for his conduct during an April 14 Phillies-Nationals game at Citizens Bank Park.
Clemmens stuck his fingers down his throat and vomited on Michael Vangelo, an off-duty Easton police captain, and one of Vangelo's daughters after Clemmens' companion was ejected from the park, assistant district attorney Patrick Doyle said.
Of course he plead guilty.Ā What's the alternative?Ā To concoct a defense that you had food poisoning?Ā Anyway, Clemmens' punishment doesn't seem that severe at first – probation – but when you keep in mind that he's now got to say "yes" if he's ever under oath and asked if he's ever plead guilty to a crime.Ā He'll say it's assault, but a simply background check will show the true nature of the beast.Ā Plus, Clemmens' deed will forever be archived on the glorious Internet.Ā He will never escape this for as long as he lives.. so there is some satisfaction in that.

Nov. 15, 2012
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - When the Vols hit the field in Nashville on Saturday, Jay Graham will be in a familiar situation -- sporting the Power T in a game against in-state foe Vanderbilt.
As a player, Graham was a perfect 4-0 as a running back for Tennessee from 1993-96. The Big Orange won those four games by an average of 38-7 as Graham piled up 450 rushing yards and three touchdowns against Vandy.
After pummeling the Commodores in his freshman and sophomore seasons (62-14 and 65-0), Graham and the Vols were in one-possession games in his final two affairs.
"I remember my junior year it came down to the last drive," Graham recalled the of the Vols' 12-7 win in 1995. "It is always a tough game."
Graham scored the game-winning touchdowns in that '95 game on a 1-yard rush with 2:59 left in regulation to avoid the upset. Graham piled up 211 rushing yards on 39 carries in that win.
The following year, Tennessee held off Vandy once again, winning 14-7 with Graham opening the scoring with a 4-yard rushing touchdown.
"My senior year it was a tough game," Graham said. "They are always going to play hard, it is going to be a good rivalry. It has always been a good rivalry."
Graham did not have success in his lone game on the sidelines with the Vols as a graduate assistant against Vanderbilt, suffering a 28-24 defeat at Neyland Stadium in 2005 to end a 22-game win streak in the series.
"I just remember playing hard and taking the whole four quarters to win," Graham said. "Always coming down to the last drive, fourth-down plays. You have to make plays. It has always been a good game and hopefully it is this weekend as well."
FROM BABY GIRAFFE TO ROBOCOPTyler Bray has always had the arm to play quarterback. His feet, however, have required some work.
Although he is working with the team's wide receivers this season, assistant coach Darin Hinshaw has helped Bray with his footwork as much as anyone, having served as the Vols' quarterbacks coach his first two years at Rocky Top.
When recruiting Bray, the UT coaches knew there would be a few things they would have to teach him but were confident they could mold him into the quarterback he has become today.
"You can always train a quarterback to get under center and focus on all the fundamentals to be a pro quarterback," Hinshaw said. "When Tyler got here, he looked like a baby giraffe trying to get under center. It was embarrassing, but he worked at it and worked at it and now it is like second-hand to him."
With at least two games still remaining on the schedule, Bray has already put together one of the best statistical seasons ever posted by a Tennessee quarterback with over 3,000 yards passing and 29 touchdowns. Hinshaw credits much of that success to the improvement he has made with his footwork.
"As a quarterback when you start seeing some different things and your feet slow down, and you start seeing some things maybe they are changing up some coverages and stuff like that, that is when you lose your rhythm," Hinshaw said. "As a quarterback, keeping your rhythm is the whole key to the game.
"Being able to stay in rhythm, understand and focus on your reads and deliver the ball on time, he has done a great job with that. There have only been a couple of times where you go, `Man, I wish we had that throw back or that situation back.' He has been doing a really good job. Your feet make your arm go at quarterback."
Another contributing factor to his ability to put up video-game numbers has been the fact that he simply isn't getting sacked this season. After yielding 41 sacks in 2010 and 18 a year ago, the Vols have allowed Bray to be tackled for a loss an NCAA-low five times this season.
While the offensive line certainly deserves the bulk of the credit for that remarkable stat, Bray's ability to move around in the pocket has played a role in it as well.
"He looks like RoboCop out there with all those braces and everything but he does a good job and he has great elusiveness in the pocket," Hinshaw said. "We have the situation with our offensive line and how well they are protecting him, but he also eludes the pass-rush really well and gets rid of the football."
Bray even showed off a few moves outside of the pocket last Saturday against Missouri, scrambling for a season-long nine-yard gain at one point.
"It was crazy," Hinshaw said. "We were all like, `What is going on?' He did a really good job in that situation. They had everybody covered and he went and scrambled and got nine yards and got us in position right there to go get a first down. That was a good job by him and that is something that Tyler is going to have to continue to do."
GETTING THE CALLLast week against Missouri, Tyler Drummer took part in a moment that he, his family and friends will never forget.
The junior walk-on wide receiver turned holder, took a J.R. Carr snap, made a move to the right, tucked the ball and raced what is technically five yards, but was more like 12, into the endzone for a touchdown in the second overtime against Missouri to put the Vols up 42-35.
The gutsy call, made by head coach Derek Dooley, turned the junior's eyes as wide as saucers.
"He didn't have a poker face when I told him we were running that I will tell you that much," said special teams coach Charlie Coiner. "He was like `Are you serious?'"
The Vols lined up for what could have been a 22-yard field goal and instead put another seven, much-needed points, up on the board.
"We saw the alignment that gave it to us," Coiner said. "We worked on it during the week, coach made that call and I am not sure who's eyes were bigger, me or Drummer. I looked at him and said are you sure and he was. It was a great call. It ended up good."
Drummer, who grew up in Knoxville going to Tennessee games, lived out a childhood fantasy against Missouri, something he will never forget.
I am proud of those kids," Coiner said. "It is really great when you coach as much as I have and you see a kid like that, get to have an experience like that which he will obviously never forget, and his family and friends will never forget. I am really happy for him."
THROW IT TO BULLARD!As a sophomore in 2011, Alex Bullard started six games at left guard and six games at center. Before transferring to Tennessee two years ago, he saw some time at tackle at Notre Dame. None of those hops along the offensive line, however, have been as big as his leap to tight end this year.
Bullard has played in all 10 contests in 2012, including two starts at tight end. Special teams and tight ends coach Charlie Coiner and offensive line coach Sam Pittman appreciate the junior from Franklin, Tenn., for his versatility.
"He's done a good job," Coiner said. "We're happy with him. It has saved us because we've had tight end shortages at one time or another with guys dinged up here or there."
"The main reason we went with Alex out at tight end this year is because he wasn't in the starters and we knew that he's athletic enough to handle the edge," Pittman said.
Pittman has been pleased with the blocking consistency Bullard has maintained in his move to tight end. His edge blocking has been just as good as it was when he was working inside.
"He's really done a nice job out there and his attitude is incredible," Pittman said. "He's really accepted his role and it's a big role, but at times it's a 20-play role instead of a 75 to 80-play role that he'd like to have had. And we'd like for him to have it. It just hasn't worked out that way."
Lining up as a tight end, the 6-2, 300-pound Bullard is now an eligible receiver. So, how long until he sees a pass thrown his way?
"Like I said, he's done a really good job in the run game," Coiner joked when asked about Bullard's pass-catching skills. "Ha, you never know. That's the thing. People would like to think never, but we've seen stranger things than that too."
Pittman has a ringing endorsement for UT's secret weapon.
"Yes, he has outstanding hands," Pittman said with a grin. "He has the best hands on the team (laughs). We just want everybody to think we may throw him a pass. And by the way, we have thrown him one in practice."
Did he catch it?
"Yes, he did."
CP CONTINUING TO IMPROVEWhen Cordarrelle Patterson has the football in his hands there are few, if any, players in college football that are more electric.
His play without the ball remains a work in-progress, however, although he has shown significant improvement in recent weeks.
"He has gotten a lot better from the first day he got here to where he is now and his development will continue to go on," UT wide receivers coach Darin Hinshaw said. "He has to continue to get better at that but when you go watch him in 1-on-1s, he is hard to cover. That is the situation, he is getting that mentality now where every route is like a 1-on-1 route. Even in zone, I'm running like I am getting the ball, I'm getting the ball, I'm getting the ball and he is getting better every week."
As his all-around game continues to improve, talk about his NFL Draft stock has naturally begun to pop up. Those discussions have remained among the media and fan base, however, as Patterson is only concerned about the task at hand and helping the Vols prepare to take on Vanderbilt on Saturday.
"That's something we talked about before the season started and we said, `Guys, you just have to take every week,' Hinshaw said. "We have not talked about that at all right now. We are focusing on this week like we do every week and focusing on doing what we have to do to go out there and prepare and give the best game that we can for Tennessee."

The biggest political event in Kentucky will be a lot bigger this year.
The national spotlight will shine on the picnic grounds of St. Jerome Catholic Church in western Kentucky as candidates in one of the most expensive U.S. Senate races in history and a possible 2016 presidential contender take the stage.
Organizers for the Fancy Farm Picnic on Saturday are expecting up to 20,000 people to attend the event, about double normal crowds.
Sen. Rand Paul, Sen. Mitch McConnell and Democratic Senate candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes will all speak before the crowds, which are often raucous.
Politicians across the state began speaking at the Fancy Farm Picnic about 100 years ago. It retains the old-style stump speeches with candidates trading insults. Crowds get rowdy as Democrats on one side and Republicans on the other start screaming slogans, jeering and cheering.
Here's what to look out for this year:
An attempt at more civility.
Concerned by the national attention and larger crowds, organizers said they're going to try to cut down on the audience shouting. Fancy Farm Picnic political chairman Mark Wilson said he's talked with both Republican and Democratic leaders asking for their audience members to tone it down so people can hear the candidates. He's also instructed the emcee, Kentucky Supreme Court Justice Bill Cunningham, to keep tight control on the audience.
Once the opening prayer, national anthem and "My Old Kentucky Home" finish, the shouts from the crowd reverberate for two hours. Last year, Paul Johnson, a tea party activist from Boone County dressed as George Washington and armed with a bullhorn, walked through the crowd and began a chant of "Hey, Hey, ho, ho, the IRS has to go!" That was countered by Grimes supporters chanting, "Hey, hey, ho, ho, Mitch McConnell has got to go!"
"We have too many guests who travel from far and wide who actually want to hear what the candidates have to say," Wilson said in an email. "We don't expect silence, but just want to cut out the non-stop screaming and chanting from start to finish."
Kentucky Democratic Chairman Daniel Logsdon said he's spoken with the organizers and will try to keep the noise down.
"They understand our limitations," Logsdon said. "We can't control everyone that's down there. We support the goal of everyone being able to hear the candidates."
How Grimes and McConnell will face adversity
In the carefully managed world of campaigns, candidates rarely face hostile audiences. Fancy Farm provides a rare opportunity for the public to see how they'll face the opposing party head-to-head.
Grimes and McConnell haven't shared a stage since Fancy Farm last year. In 2013, what garnered the most attention was when McConnell walked out before his GOP primary challenger Matt Bevin's speech. Bevin's camp saw it as a slight. McConnell's campaign claimed it was to keep Republicans from heckling each other. Now Grimes and McConnell will go head to head in front of the opposing party.
How they hold up will interest political watchers.
"I think it's part entertainment associated with the political process," said Troy Sheldon, of Alexandria, GOP chairman in the 4th Congressional District. "It gives an opportunity for candidates to give their positions. It also allows you to see how the candidates handle pressure. It is nice to see everybody participating in the political process."
2015 gubernatorial race will start shaping up
Fancy Farm will offer Kentuckians their first real look at the governor's race next year. Agriculture commissioner Jamie Comer has said he will announce whether he'll run for the Republican nomination from the Fancy Farm stage this year.
Another GOP candidate, Hal Heiner, has already announced his candidacy but isn't able to speak at Fancy Farm this year. Fancy Farm rules only allow candidates for election that year or statewide office holders to speak. The only Democratic gubernatorial candidate so far, Attorney General Jack Conway, will speak.
Beshear's return
Gov. Steve Beshear will speak at Fancy Farm for the first time since his re-election campaign of 2011. After that appearance, he received flak from Republicans for not having a negative, insult-laden speech. Instead, he talked about his recent trip to visit troops in the Middle East, something Republicans decried as using the military as a prop.
"Last time he was there, he'd just gotten off the plane from Afghanistan and Iraq," Logsdon said. "He didn't feel like giving a political speech. Sometimes people have such a hard time with that."
This time, Logsdon expects him to speak about the Senate race and efforts by Democrats to keep control of the Kentucky House.
Smoking ban advocates plan big showing
Smoke-Free Kentucky, the group that has pushed for a statewide smoking ban in public places, will have a big showing at Fancy Farm. The coalition of local and national health agencies and businesses is taking a bus around Kentucky, holding media appearances to push for a statewide smoking ban. The tour will culminate at Fancy Farm where the bus and anti-smoking advocates will urge support for a smoking ban.
Legislation to ban smoking in public places has failed to pass the Kentucky General Assembly for the past several years.

Sex Ed in the City: A Look at Schools' Curriculum
Sex education for New York City teens takes many forms and occurs in many settings – all in an effort to reduce the risk of pregnancy and the spread of sexually transmitted disease.
Some offer workshops in public schools. Some hold sessions at teen centers, health centers, even churches and laundromats.
"We did a survey of NYC voters and found that 85 percent of parents want comprehensive sex ed taught in schools," said Haydee Morales of Planned Parenthood, "and when they learn that it's not part of the curriculum, they're just stunned."
New York State requires schools teach health, including nutrition, physical fitness and sex ed. There's a loose outline, but school districts don't have to follow a detailed curriculum. New York City actually does have a detailed sex ed curriculum, but the Department of Education doesn't require schools follow it. This isn't unusual. The department on most subjects gives broad mandates and lets schools decide how to fulfill them, according to Lori Rose Benson, the schools' Director of Wellness Programs.
"There might be a school that faces some very specific issues in their community, and they really want to hone in on their area, and they should be able to do that," Benson says. "It's the educational vision to really empower principals to make those very specific choices for their schools."
Benson says about 64 percent of middle schools use the recommended curriculum, and the department is still trying to figure out how many high schools are — somewhere between 38 and 81 percent, according to a survey of principals. The department said it's still analyzing these surveys, so it can't be more specific about the high school numbers, and it can't say what the rest of schools are teaching for sex ed, if anything.
City Council Education Committee Chairman Robert Jackson said schools are under such pressure to get good math and reading test scores that it's easy to imagine sex ed joining a list of things many principals let slide, like gym, art and music.
"When principals have to cut, they cut things they feel are not the most important," Jackson says. "[The recommended curriculum] should not be voluntary. It should be mandated, in order to teach children about healthy living, about communicating with each other, about protecting one another, about teaching young high school teenagers how to say, 'No.'"
Jackson said he approves of the city's sex ed curriculum, which is an off-the-shelf series of lesson plans, workbooks and group exercises called "Health Smart" and "Reducing the Risk." He cites data suggesting the program — developed by ETR Associates, a California-based non-profit — can help delay many students' first sexual encounter by as long as two years. Postponing sexual initiation, in turn, is instrumental in reducing pregnancy and STD's.
Last year, the NYCLU acquired the city's internal evaluation of the sex ed program.
"By all measures, the program was really a great success," said Melissa Goodman, director of NYCLU's Reproductive Rights Project. "Teachers, students, parents administrators – they all said that it works, that it was effective, that they would use it again."
City education and health officials said they're pleased with the number of schools that have adopted the program and are confident more will in the future. The department didn't respond to requests to observe its programs in action.
The Door, Planned Parenthood and dozens of non-profit groups around the city teach sex ed. The Door, a teen center and health clinic, invites teens to learn about sex through discussion and games.
Eurekka, 16, of Harlem comes to The Door several days a week – not just to talk about sex, but because she likes hanging out with people here. She said both the games and the more serious discussions have helped her think and act more maturely.
"They explain to us about healthy and unhealthy relationships," she said . "Mainly, my relationships had been unhealthy, arguing and fighting all the time."
She said discussions at The Door have helped her "get out of a relationship and start a new one on a healthy role."
She is one of many who say they're not impressed by sex ed in schools: "At schools, they just give you the information, and they explain it, but they don't explain it really thoroughly. ... At The Door, they'll sit down and give you the information that you need."

The hair cycle normally consists of growing, resting and falling hairs and there is a delicate balance between these stages of hair cycle. Normally hair should regrow but if it is not happening, you should consider seeing a dematologist.

Some good tips from the blog "Teach Kids Art" on how to establish a daily sketchbook routine, including suggestions for a lightweight, portable sketching kit. I can second the recommendation for most of these materials as I use them too:
To ensure you have a sketchbook at your side when opportunity (or inspiration) strikes, you'll probably need to have more than one. Keep a sketchbook in the car, and another one (even a very small one!) in your purse, backpack, or bag. I like Moleskine Books.… they come in a variety of sizes and paper types. I love their "squared" books (like graph paper) for sketching, designing, journaling, and making lists, and their watercolor books, which are great for any wet media. Moleskines always include a handy pocket inside the back cover and an elastic band to hold your book closed.
A few simple sketching tools are all you need. A mechanical pencil with a hefty eraser on the end is essential! For ink, I like waterproof Pigma pens, which come in a variety of widths (and colors.… but I mostly use black). When I want to add color, a small Winsor & Newton "Cotman" watercolor set is easy to bring along. A Niji "Waterbrush" dispenses water (stored in the handle) right through the bristles.… a terrific aid for traveling light with your supplies! (Click here for a helpful tutorial on how to use a waterbrush.) And if you want to travel even lighter, you can use watercolor pencils to create a "palette of colors"on a separate page of your sketchbook, then simply wet them with a damp brush to lift the color for painting.

I'm not a painter, but my kids love to paint in watercolors… the problem is usually using too much water (and ripped-through pages). Do you think a waterbrush would work well at keeping the amount of water they use way down?
Yes, I think a waterbrush might be helpful for kids to control the amount of water– unless they squeeze the body too much, which does make the water come out in a big drop. If their pages are deteriorating that much, maybe heavier paper would also help?
Interesting to hear from someone who likes molie's paper quality!

Hayden Butte Preserve Park/A Mountain
With its gigantic reference to ASU, its long history as a home to Native Americans and its central location, A Mountain, officially named Hayden Butte Preserve Park, is dear to many.
Located on the southeast corner of Mill Avenue and Rio Salado Parkway, Hayden Butte is one of Tempe's most popular outdoor areas for exercise and a quick jaunt to take in a beautiful view.
The butte is culturally-significant to three communities: the people of Tempe, Arizona State University students and alumni, and the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community.
Hohokam and Hayden Butte
Hayden Butte Preserve contains approximately 500 petroglyphs, or rock art images, that were made by the Hohokam some time between A.D. 750 and 1450. The Hohokam were the prehistoric inhabitants of this area. They built hundreds of miles of irrigation canals, cultivated corn as their main crop and lived in many settlements both large and small throughout the valley.
La Plaza was a large Hohokam settlement at the base of Hayden Butte. Many remnants of this settlement were discovered during archaeological excavations that were done in preparation for the light rail and transportation center on Fifth Street.
Today, the Salt River Pima Maricopa Indian Community considers Hayden Butte to be a sacred place and a link to its ancestors.
Charles Trumbull Hayden
Hayden Butte got its name from Charles Trumbull Hayden, who is often credited as being the founder of Tempe. Hayden opened a ferry service and a flour mill at the base of the butte in the late 1800s, along with a general store. His former home is now Monti's La Casa Vieja restaurant, located on the west side of Mill Avenue and Rio Salado Parkway, just a short distance from Hayden Butte.
Arizona State University
Arizona State University first became involved with the butte in 1917, when students of the Tempe Normal School (what is now ASU) began the tradition of a Lantern Walk, which involved the passing of the torch between first and second year students. The Class of 1918 installed the first letter on Tempe-Hayden Butte: a large "N." In 1925, the "N" became a "T," as Tempe Normal School changed its name to Tempe State Teachers College.
It wasn't until 1938 that an "A" first appeared. It was formed from loose rocks and soon after, the fall ritual of whitewashing the A began. In 1952, the "A" was dynamited into tiny bits and completely annihilated by vandals. In 1955, when the college was named Arizona State University, a new "A" was built. It remains today. The reinforced steel and poured concrete "A" measures 60 feet from base to top.
ASU Sun Devil Stadium is another dominant feature of the butte. In 1958, architect Ed Varney designed the football stadium to fit in the saddle between the two peaks of the butte. The east side of the butte was partially excavated in order to accommodate the construction.
Hayden Butte Park Preserve
The City of Tempe declared Hayden Butte a park in 1973. The 25-acre parkoffers wonderful views of Tempe and the surrounding cities, the Papago Mountains, Camelback Mountain, the Salt River and much more. The Leonard Monti Trail, dedicated in 1994, winds up the side of Hayden Butte and is named after the founder of Monti's La Casa Vieja Restaurant, which envelops the former home of Charles Trumbull Hayden.
Because of it's significant historical resources and significance, as well as the abundant desert fauna and flora, Tempe designated it as a preserve in 2002. This protects the butte's future while maintaining its connections to the past.
A Mountain Pride
The accessibility of A Mountain to hikers can be problematic. People are crushing the fragile desert beneath their feet by leaving the trails. Others are ruining ancient petroglyphs with grafitti.
It has cost the City of Tempe as much as $20,000 annually to try to restore the damaged petroglyphs. Boy Scouts, ASU students and other groups help with litter clean-up and landscape rejuvenation on occasion.
To help people enjoy the historic Hayden Butte without damaging it or themselves, the City of Tempe is asking people to have some pride in their mountain and follow some simple guidelines:
A Mountain Guidelines
• Have fun.
• Stay on the trail.
• Admire the A, but don't paint it.
• Drink some water.
• Please don't litter. Karma points for picking up any you see.
• Be polite to other hikers.
• A Mountain is beautiful the way it is. Please don't leave any marks on it.
• Call 480 350-4311 or use the Tempe 311 mobile app to report any problems.

[NIKE INTERNATIONAL FRIENDLIES] Playing its first international match on home soil since the beginning of its new cycle, the U.S. under-17 national team played
to a 2-2 tie with France in its opening match of the Nike International Friendlies in Lakewood Ranch, Fla. The USA got an excellent opening goal from DeAndre
Robinson and a stoppage-time equalizer from Wesley Wade, both MLS academy players. For more on the game and video highlights ...
Brazil defeated Turkey 1-0 in the earlier match at the the Premier Sports Campus.
The USA will face Turkey next on Friday at 5 p.m. ET, while Brazil takes on France at 3 p.m. ET. The U.S. match will be live on Fox Soccer.
"It's an excellent game for the boys to experience against one of the top teams around the world," said U.S. coach Wilmer Cabrera. "France is an excellent team with great players, technically very good, strong, and athletic. We tried to face them at the same level, and I think it was an exciting game. We never gave up, and that is a quality that the American teams always have. We tried to play soccer and find a way to tie, and to win. Obviously we need to improve a lot of things, but to have a reference point like a team like France is important for us. Our team needs to see that we can compete with a team like this."
The Americans certainly had their chances. They got on the board in the 25th minute after Junior Mejia-Flores fed Robinson (D.C. United), who curled the ball into the near right corner of the net.
Minutes later, defender Shaquell Moore surged forward and launched a dipping shot off the crossbar.
But France's Bleuets came to life and equalized on a goal by Michel Araai and took the lead with an own goal by U.S. defender Tyler Turner.
In the third minute of stoppage time, a ball was played into the penalty area, where Wade (New York Red Bulls) buried his shot past French keeper Dorian Grange.
Nov. 30 in Lakewood Ranch, Fla.
USA 2 France 2. Goals: Robinson 25, Wade 93+; Araai 43, own goal 75.

Christmas came early!
I was looking for a Long Tube header for my car and came across the below and had to let other members know. I called JBA and they said this price is while supplies last. I had JBA shorties on my last car and they were great so I ordered them up.[:D]
nice enjoy
That won't bolt up to anything on an SVT.
You'll need the JBA 3 bolt flex pipe, they don't seem to be including, for the standard Zetec.
You'll also need a standard Zetec dipstick and dipstick tube.
And you'll need a threaded cap to block off the EGR port that you won't be using.
Edit...you posted in SVT section, but you don't have an SVT? Anyway, you'll still need the 3 bolt flex pipe, as that will mate to your stock flex.
Moved your thread to the zetec performance section since you don't have a SVT.
Still cheaper to get an svt header.
iirc a while back, someone posted how that header has held up after a few years(not very well). To the OP, I would do some more research on it to see if you are making a good decision.
Cool, good find.
Just want to make sure you had a handle on that.
1 Attachment(s)
This header should last just as long as an SVT header since it is made of 409 stainless steel also. Only things I see missing a second bung for the downstream o2 sensor and a flex pipe. If you are wanting to run without the other o2 sensor you will either have to get a tune to remove it or have another sensor bung welded some where in the flex pipe. Even if you do have the other sensor installed it still might throw a CEL, in that case you would need to either purchase or make a MIL eliminator. You can have a good exhaust shop fabricate a suitable flex pipe for you also.

For the 2013 model year, the seventh-generation Porsche 911 Carrera gets a new all-wheel-drive system and two new models — the Carrera 4 and Carrera 4 S — that will use the new drivetrain. The Carrera C4 is an important component of 911 sales, making up more than a third of total sales of the sixth-generation 911, according to Porsche.
The Porsche 911 Carrera 4 gets an updated version of Porsche's all-wheel-drive system, called Porsche Traction Management. Besides that, the rest of the mechanical upgrades are the same as the ones found on the 2012 rear-wheel-drive Carrera. That means it benefits from the longer wheelbase, lightweight aluminum-steel body, new flat-six engine, seven-speed manual transmission and the electromechanical steering (which we thought was well-executed).
Porsche says you can identify the Carrera 4 by its slightly wider rear wheel housing; each extends an extra 22 mm outward, and the rear tires are each 10 mm wider. Let's be clear, though: There's no way you'll recognize a few millimeters' difference in the sizes of the rear wheels. If you want to know the difference between the Carrera and Carrera 4, just look at the taillights:
On the Carrera 4, there's a center brake light strip. And of course, there are different nameplate decals.
With the addition of the Carrera 4, Porsche is making adaptive cruise control and a collision warning system available on all 911 models. The latter, called Active Safe, pre-charges the brakes in an imminent front-end collision. There's also a new glass sunroof option for the 2013 911 Carrera coupe, the automaker says.
The 2013 Porsche Carrera 4 will be priced at $91,030 for the coupe and $102,930 for the convertible. Destination fees were not available. The Carrera 4 S will start at $105,630 and $117,530, respectively. The 2013 Porsche Carrera series will go on sale early in 2013.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic skin disorder characterized by recurrent viral skin infections. Some individuals with AD can get eczema herpeticum (disseminated herpes simplex infection). Interferon (IFN)-γ plays a critical role in the innate and acquired immune responses and has been shown to be significantly decreased after stimulation with HSV ex vivo. The purpose of this study is to determine if deficient IFN-γ induction leads to susceptibility to HSV infection in ADEH+ patients.
Ages Eligible for Study: 6 Years to 65 Years
Genders Eligible for Study: Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: Yes
Inclusion Criteria:
History of AD with or without eczema herpeticum as diagnosed using the Atopic Dermatitis Research Network (ADRN) Standard Diagnostic Criteria OR who are non-atopic as diagnosed using the ADRN Standard Diagnostic Criteria.
Exclusion Criteria:
Systemic illness not being studied (eg. HIV, lupus)
Active systemic malignancy (other than uncomplicated non-melanoma skin cancer)
Skin disease other than AD that would impact the barrier function (eg. psoraisis, bullous disease)

Ballard real estate market going sideways
By Conor MacEvilly, Coldwel Banker Danforth, www.mynorthseattlehome.com
Hallelujah! The Ballard real estate market is going up! Or is it?
A lot of recent news reports have enthusiastically stated that the Seattle real estate market is recovering and prices are going up again. Ballard homes are a popular first choice with many Seattle home buyers as it was for me when I bought my own home in Loyal Heights 10 years ago and have happily lived here since. Good Ballard homes that are priced correctly will usually sell quickly and many with multiple offers.
It's human nature to unquestionably embrace positive news, especially when it involves the price of our homes going up. Before I became a Ballard Realtor I was a science guy (biochemist / chemist) and so I'm naturally wary of any and all statistics. They say smoking and baseball are the biggest causes of statistics but I think you can add real estate to that list as well.
OK so what is Ballard real estate market doing I hear you ask?
I looked at the monthly median sale price of non-distressed Ballard single family homes over the past 5 years. The median sale price is the price at which half the homes sold for above that price and half the homes sold for below that price. Single family homes refers to houses and townhomes. By non-distressed homes I mean homes that are not short sales and or bank-owned homes. I combined data for the Ballard, Loyal Heights and Sunset Hill areas. The number of homes that sold each month varied between 25 and 45 single family homes per month. The chart was generated using data from the NW Multiple Listing Service.
I my opinion, the median price of non-distressed Ballard homes has been bouncing sideways since 2009! Prices are currently going up but they have done so five times previously since 2009 only to drop back down again. Prices have been bouncing between and upper price of about $460,000 and a lower price of about $380,000. This is similar to what you see in day trading. When price of say, the S&P 500, is channeling sideways, price will go up and bounce off a resistance price and then come back down and bounce of a support price.
The short term trend is up but the long term trend is distinctly sideways. Until the median sale price emphatically breaks out of this price zone we cannot say with certainty which direction the market is going. Prices are once again knocking on the door of the resistance price, As to whether it will finally break out or go back down again, we have to wait and see. Personally I think this really interesting and my guess is that prices will go back down toward support price especially since we are now heading into the quieter winter months. But that's just a guess.
Without trying to bore you to sleep, real estate statistics, as with all statistics, have limitations. Be especially wary of statistics generated from a low number of sales. As I mentioned above, the number of monthly non-distressed single family home sales varied between 25 and 45 which are a decent number of sales to generate stats from, more would better obviously. The 20% variation from the low to high prices in the sideways zone is due to seasonal variations, what's mix of homes sell in a particular month plus real variation in price due to supply and demand. Regardless, the big picture trend is that prices are just going sideways. There was an obvious upwards trend to 2007 when prices peaked as was the subsequent price drop after the bubble popped. However, since 2009 it's just a sideways yoyo movement. Month to data price changes are essentially meaningless. They may cheer you up while drinking your morning coffee and listing to the radio but you would better served by looking at the long term trends.
Note that this data related to non-distressed single family homes. For short sales and bank-owned homes the picture is different with prices continuing to drop in each case. More on that some other time.
The main factors driving the market for the past couple of years have been (1) the low number of Ballard homes for sale which generates a lot of competition (2) continuing low interest rates and (3) people moving to Seattle for jobs.
I will revisit Ballard home sale numbers will you in a few months and see if we have finally managed to break out of our current sideways trend bounce.

Corey Crawford made 20 saves as the Chicago Blackhawks remained red-hot at home with a 5-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday night.
Crawford wasn't busy but stayed sharp, earning the win in his first action since getting pulled from a Dec. 5 loss to the Phoenix Coyotes. The Montreal native has allowed just three goals in two career starts against the Canadiens, who have dropped four straight games and fell to 0-3 under new coach Randy Cunneyworth.
The victory improved the Blackhawks to 12-2-3 at home, the third-best mark in the NHL.
Following a scoreless first period short on scoring chances, Crawford made his best save 5:35 into the second, corralling a point-blank shot from Max Pacioretty with the Canadiens enjoying a power play. Moments later, Montreal opened the scoring on an Andrei Kostitsyn redirection of a Tomas Plekanec shot that beat Crawford over his left shoulder.
Chicago drew even at 11:36, as Andrew Brunette's backhand pass attempt deflected past Montreal goaltender Peter Budaj. Patrick Sharp put the Blackhawks ahead 21 seconds later, fluttering a shot off the stick of a Canadiens defender that eluded Budaj.
The Blackhawks put the game out of reach just past the midway point of the third period. Brian Bickell fired the initial shot high and wide of the net but pursued the puck and centered it to Viktor Stalberg, who wired a shot low past Budaj.
Captain Jonathan Toews added his 20th goal of the season into an empty net with 1:17 remaining. Bickell concluded the scoring by converting on a 2-on-1 break in the final moments.
