I did delete my original post about 10 minutes after I posted it primarily because I realized it wasn't worth it. However, since you dragged it back out...

I've NEVER been in a car accident driving in the snow & have skied in almost EVERY resort in CO as well as in Germany, Austria, etc so DO understand and agree that
may be ESSENTIAL for a few select locations with conditions like: zero-degrees for extended periods, 3 feet of snow on the daily basis with no street cleaning equipment, etc. However, you appear to be SO single-minded that you do not appear to even fathom the "possibility" that most of us do not live in those conditions. All-Season
are EXCEPTIONALLY well suited for many of us who live in a different environment than you. In this area it hardly ever gets under 20-degrees Fahrenheit (even in the mountains) so the all-weather
tend to do a very good job at gripping the show and pavement in the temperatures that are common for THIS area. Resorts tend to have snow removal trucks anytime there is any more than 6 inches of snow on the road and those of us who DO ski a lot also typically bring snow chains of some type (I use SCC cables myself) in the event that the resorts REQUIRE chains to get up (and down) the mountain.

Will it bother me if he buys a different tire? Not in the LEAST. Is it REALLY going to make you THAT upset if this guy buys and (heaven forbid) actually USES a set of DWS
based on a preponderance of positive online replies? This is the internet and like it or not, there are a LOT of opinions and guess what, they may not be the same as yours.

How to Read Food LabelsSubmitted by SharpHealth Team on Wednesday 13th October 2010
- Taking advantage of food labels.
- The 411 on nutritional information.
- Deciphering food label lingo.
With the myriad of activities that take up SharpMen's time on a daily basis, there's barely time to go to the grocery store — much less to read food labels. However, it may motivate you to know that by simply taking a moment to read a food label can help you lose weight, prevent cancer or ward off heart disease. Worth another look, aren't they?
Take Advantage of Food Labels
By simply reading food labels, you can create a well-balanced diet without the help of a dietician or doctor. For starters, try limiting your fat intake to fewer than 65 grams per day or 30 percent of your total calories.
Some aspects of food labels are more important that others. Specifically, five food label sections: serving size, calories, total fat, saturated fat and fiber.
Serving Size. Chances are, that handful of potato chips you're eating is double the serving size you believe it to be. In a bag of Ruffles ® brand potato chips, for example, a one-ounce serving contains 150 calories and 10 grams of fat — and the average bag may amount to more than one serving. Like the slogan says, you can't have just one.
Are SharpMen simply pigs? Not really. As mentioned above, most food packaging contains more than one serving, and most restaurant servings are double or triple the normal serving size — SharpMen may simply have been conditioned to eat more than they actually should. To remedy this, try measuring the serving size in a bowl, and then eat just that amount each time. Alternatively, to avoid coming off as an obsessive freak on your next dinner date, simply mentally cut your portion in half, and take the rest for the following day's lunch.
Calories. The calories section — although possibly the most important part of a food label — tends to be overlooked. Phrases and words such as "fat free" and "light" often pull attention from calories to fat grams. However, if a fat-free product uses simple carbohydrates (which are effectively processed into sugar by your body) instead of fat, you may as well be eating spoonfuls of sugar.
Total fat. An excessive intake of fat is one of the biggest health risks associates with the North American lifestyle. Not only does fat make you, well … fat, it can also contribute to the development of heart disease and cancer. The average SharpMan should try to limit his consumption to between 45 and 65 grams of fat per day. By counting fat grams, it's easy to keep track of how much fat you're eating. As an example, at 41 grams of fat, the typical McDonald's order of a Big Mac and fries doesn't leave much room for any other daily fat intake.
Saturated fat. Otherwise known as the "bad" fat, saturated fat is a hidden culprit in raising cholesterol levels and increasing the risk of heart disease. In fact, when you eat saturated fat, your body uses it to make cholesterol. Red meat, milk and butter often are cited as three of the biggest saturated fat carriers. But products like ground turkey and ground round, as well as skim milk, can be used in place of the originals. One option is to eat products with fewer than two grams of saturated fat per serving.
Fiber. Fiber is not only one of the most important nutrients, but also one of the most overlooked. Although the average American should be eating 25 to 35 grams of fiber a day, most consume 10 grams or fewer. Fiber is critical in digesting food, and lowers your chance of getting cancer. Easy sources of fiber include fruits, vegetables and oat-based foods.
Deciphering Food Label Lingo
What's the difference between "low fat," "lean" and "light?" Believe it or not, there is a distinction, and it's more distinct than you might think.
"Light" means the food has half the fat and one-third the calories, or half the salt, of its regular product.
"Free," as in "fat free" or "sugar free," indicates none of the "free" substance is in the product.
"Low" is used on products that don't exceed the dietary guidelines for fat, saturated fat, sodium or calories for the "low" substance in the product.
"Lean" describes the fat content of meat, poultry and seafood. It must have fewer than 10 grams of fat, 4.5 or fewer grams of saturated fat and fewer than 95 milligrams of cholesterol.
"Reduced" means the product must contain at least 25 percent fewer calories or fat than the original product.
Do the Math
Food labels are not always what they appear. In fact, they can be downright confusing. Take a pint of Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey ® ice cream, for example. There are very few who can honestly say they haven't eaten a pint of the delectable treat. And very few have batted an eye at the 310 calories per serving. But, how many would have opted for something else if time had been taken to calculate the 1,240 calories they actually consumed? Here's the scoop:
One pint Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia ®
- Serving size: 1/2 cup
- Serving per container: 4
- Calories: 310 x 4 = 1,240
- Fat: 19g x 4 = 76g
- Saturated fat: 11g x 4 =44g
- Cholesterol: 55 mg x 4 = 220mg
® Chunky Monkey is a registered trademark of Ben & Jerry's Homemade Inc.

Canadian Finance Minister Criticizes U.S. Over Keystone Pipeline Delay
'Very Disappointed' That U.S. Has Delayed Decision on Keystone XL
CALGARY—Canada's finance minister stepped up criticism of the U.S. government's latest delay on deciding the fate of a proposed pipeline to connect Canada's oil sands to the Gulf of Mexico.
"We are very disappointed with the U.S. administration's decision to delay yet again the decision on Keystone XL," Joe Oliver said in a speech in Calgary, Alberta.

BDT Implements LTO-6Into tape automation products
By Jean-Jacques Maleval on 2013.01.01
BDT Media Automation GmbH implements the new tape standard LTO-6 in its storage devices to increase capacity as well as write and read speeds of tapes.
With this offer BDT meets the market requirements in regards of increasing data volumes.
"We see additional growth potential in the area of high volume data storage", explains Rolf Ritter, CEO of BDT and complements: "Thanks to our longstanding experience and cooperation with the IT industry we are able to recognize trends at an early stage and to offer innovative developments."
It is estimated that the worldwide amount of data will double every second year.
The large IT companies launch every two to three years a new standard in tape storage on the market together with developers such as BDT. With each market launch the capacity of tapes and the data transfer rate doubles or grows at least by 50%. As OEM developer BDT sells corresponding data storage systems to nearly all leading IT companies that on the other hand offer this technology under their own brand and name as long-term data protection and archiving solution.
"Tape remains one of the most reasonable and reliable solutions for long-term storage of data", explains Ritter.
The tape technology is used by all large IT manufacturers. New developments in this area will be certified by an international consortium BDT takes part of.
"This ensures a long-term and direct market access for us", complements Ritter.
The introduction of a new tape format for archiving and storage of data sees BDT as additional growth potential. The so called LTFS format enables it to directly connect a tape drive with an OS. Users can store data via drag & drop to tape media for the first time.
"With the increase in capacity and performance of LTO-6 and the simplification of the usability and operability of LTFS the importance of tape grows for long-term data protection", emphasizes Ritter and complements: "The LTFS technology will open op completely new application possibilities and products we already develop today. Low costs, higher data security as well as energy efficiency are only some of the advantages."
As technology partner and partner of the IT industry, BDT benefits from these developments on the market.

2013 Planning and Implementing Sustainable IPM Systems
at Oregon State University
See you all at the Welcome Reception on Sunday, August 11 at 4pm (PDT)!
A residential course on the planning and implementation of sustainable IPM extension programs in uncertain times
Over two weeks of seminars, discussions and case studies, participants will build their capacities to work with farmers to plan and implement sustainable integrated pest management (IPM) programs. The course will employ innovative teaching and learning methods that maximize participation and engagement, and draw upon data and experiences with real farms and farmers.
Attendees will specifically address the challenges of implementing IPM in systems that are subject to novel, invasive pests and systems experiencing the increasing uncertainties associated with climate change. All the case studies will consider the challenges associated with sustainable production intensification and the role that IPM can play in meeting this global imperative.
The Integrated Plant Protection Center (IPPC) at OSU will host the course. The IPPC is an award-winning research and extension center with current programs in the USA and West Africa and a wealth of experience in global IPM systems.
The IPPC will lead the program which will also include contributions from farmers, certification organizations, the UN FAO, crop consultants, government agencies and other IPM stakeholders.
Participants will develop their capacity to design and implement appropriate modes of IPM extension for diverse farming systems and pest threats. They will also acquire skills in pest risk assessment, determination of appropriate IPM tactics, IPM decision support, use of advanced human health and environmental risk assessment tools and extension program evaluation.
The course is targeted at professionals with responsibility to establish sustainable IPM programs in agriculture. We aim to attract a diverse cohort of participants from US and international extension programs, non-profits and NGO's, government agencies, and certification and commodity organizations. Graduates from the program will receive continuing support and will also be able interact with their co-participants once they return to their home setting. The language of instruction will be English.
Registration is now open and further course details will be posted regularly to the course website.
Course Dates:

Welcome to Riverside's home page. As medical director of the facility, Dr. Frank Scaccia is a uniquely qualified Dual Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon and Otolaryngologist who specializes in cosmetic surgery, plastic surgery, rhinoplasty, facelift and treatment of sinus/nasal disorders. After a unanimous vote by his peers, Dr. Scaccia was appointed for 2012 as the Chairman and Section Chief for the departments of Ear, Nose and Throat, and Head & Neck Surgery at Meridian Health's Riverview Medical Center in Red Bank, NJ. Riverview is one of the busiest and most respected hospitals in the region being a 5 time winner of The J.D. Power and Associates Award. His list of honors in plastic surgery includes the Jack Anderson Award which he won in 1995 after receiving the highest score in the United States on the certifying exam given by the American Board of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. In addition, his surgical abilities have been featured in Time, Newsweek, Channel 7 "Eyewitness News," and most recently this past June on the "Anderson Cooper Show" where a TV personality was commenting to Mr. Cooper how much she likes her new nose that Dr. Scaccia operated on for her and that he is an "amazing doctor." He has also contributed to the medical literature with publications in textbook and journals. Dr. Scaccia was one of the first to publish in a textbook a technique to perform simultaneous rhinoplasty and sinus surgery. Follow this link for a copy of this interesting book chapter.
MM More recently, Dr. Scaccia has been named as one of New Jersey's leading cosmetic surgeons in a special article on "Top Beauty Docs" by magazine in the February 2006 through 2009 editions. Furthermore, he was cited as one of only seven cosmetic surgeons in New Jersey that was specifically recognized for his rhinoplasty nose skills. The criteria for selection of this honor was based on Castle Connolly's physician lead research team who uses a vigorous screening process to survey physicians and administrators at leading hospitals for recommendations of highly skilled, exceptional doctors in the field of cosmetic plastic surgery. In addition Dr. Scaccia has also earned the prestigious recognition of being listed in the 2006 to 2010 editions of "The Guide to America's Top Physicians," the 2006 through 2013 editions of "Top Doctors: New York Metro Area," the 2011 listing in "US News &World Report" of Top Doctors and 2012 edition of Top Doctors: The-Star-Ledger's Inside Jersey, the Marquis' 2007 through 2012 editions of "Who'sWho in America" and most recently, has been selected for inclusion in both the 2010 and 2012 editions of "Who'sWho in Medicine and Healthcare," and the 2011 through 2012 edition of "Who'sWho in the World." Finally, Dr Scaccia has the added distinction of being included in the 2013 list of "Top Cosmetic Doctors" in the nation by Castle Connelly Medical Ltd.
MM His new office is located in the historic town of Red Bank allowing convenient access from all northern and central New Jersey sites and the New York City metropolitan area. The plastic surgery NJ and sinus center NJ includes it's own federally approved and accredited ambulatory outpatient surgical suite built to hospital safety standards and is one of the first in Monmouth County to utilize Brain Lab's Image Guided Navigational Sinus System allowing for state-of-the-art endoscopic sinus surgery.
MMRiverside has also been awarded accreditation by JCAHO (Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations) the nation's leading evaluator among hospitals and other healthcare groups for quality care and patient safety. The center underwent a thorough onsite evaluation against nearly 150 standards which demonstrates our mission to provide the highest level of care possible. Your safety, comfort and privacy are our top priorities. Procedures can be performed under various levels of anesthesia (including general and twilight sleep) and will be administered by only board certified physician anesthesiologists. You will find that Dr. Scaccia's commitment to safety and excellence is exemplified throughout this web site. One benchmark is the fact that in his 20 years (residency training and private practice) as a physician (which includes thousands of surgical procedures) no medical malpractice judgments or even settlements have ever been brought against him.
MMSome of the facial plastic surgery procedures performed at the center include facelift, rhytidectomy, mini facelift, midface lift, s-lift, platelet gel facelift, weekend neck lift, eyelid rejuvenation, blepharoplasty, eyebrow lift, forehead lift, lip enhancement/rejuvenation, chin/cheek implants, liposuction, snoring and sleep apnea correction, female nasal sculpturing, rhinoplasty, male nasal sculpturing, rhinoplasty, Asian nasal surgery, Afro-American rhinoplasty, Ethnic rhinoplasty, revision/redo nasal surgery and sinus surgery.
MMBotox injections, laser surgery for tattoos, moles, pigment, spider veins, wrinkles, skin resurfacing, hair removal and scars are also available. Other plastic surgery procedures performed include ear surgery (otoplasty), split earlobe repair, AlloDerm implants, sclerotherapy and chemical peels. Gentlewaves LED Photomodulation is a new technology that we are now using to reverse photoaging and potentially speeds healing after surgery.

Collagen induction therapy (CIT) is an aesthetic medical procedure that involves repeatedly puncturing the skin with tiny, sterile needles (microneedling the skin). Microneedling Belmar NJ 07715.
CIT is often referred to as "microneedling" or "skin needling" in media, however it is important to distinguish CIT from other contexts in which microneedling devices are used on the skin, e.g. transdermal drug delivery, vaccination, etc.
The procedure usually involves a specialized device which can take the form of a manual rolling device or an automated stamping device. The rolling devices, also known as "microrollers" have been used since the late 1990s and marketed under various names, such as the Dermaroller invented by the eponymous founder of the company Horst Liebl and patented in 2000,. The automated microneedle stamping devices, or "microneedling pens", are typically powered by a motor and can be adjusted for frequency (stamps/second) and depth of the microneedles. These "pens" are also marketed under various names, such as SkinPen, DermaPen and Micropen. Microneedling Belmar NJ 07715.
Heidi Waldorf, director of laser and cosmetic dermatology at the Mount Sinai Medical Center, has stated "Many people may use [CIT] and be fine, but from my perspective the minute you've done anything where there might be any blood, then you have a risk of infection. That is concerning to me." David Duffy, a dermatologist, finds CIT to be "sort of the poor man's laser treatment." The author's own advice was "talk to your doctor before you stick anything into your face."
Paula Begoun, CEO of Paula's Choice and Beginning Press Publishing, and known for her view that skin care and cosmetics products must always be subjected to peer reviewed research, believes that CIT means "taking a risk that you won't damage skin and make matters worse," which, she finds, "from almost any perspective...not a wise move." Microneedling Belmar NJ 07715.

LSU only led by six points at halftime. The guests then opened the final half with an 8-1 run and were not threatened the remainder of the contest.
MSU dropped its fourth straight contest, while falling to 8-7 overall and 0-3 in league play. LSU made it back-to-back wins in league play, while improving to 12-6 and 2-2.
The Maroon and White scored the game's first five points on a Catina Bett putback and Diamber Johnson 3-pointer. MSU held that lead until a 3-point basket by LSU's Adrienne Webb with 14:36 left in the half.
The teams were again tied at eight before the guests took the lead for good with five straight points. A Katherine Graham jumper ran the Lady Tigers advantage to 21-15. After closing within 21-19 on two free throws by Porsha Porter, MSU gave up an 8-0 run allowing the advantage to extend to 29-19.
Behind 55 percent first half shooting (with six made 3-pointers), LSU led 32-26 at the intermission.
Webb hit a pair of 3-pointers during the second half-opening 8-1 run. The final trey gave LSU a 40-27 push with 17:04 left in regulation.
The Lady Bulldogs hung tough but defensively could not find an answer. MSU closed within 44-36 a couple of minutes later, only to have LSU reeled off seven straight points to move back out of danger.
For the contest, the Lady Bulldogs hit 18 of 50 shots from the field (36.0 percent), 4 of 16 shots from 3-point range (25.0 percent) and 15 of 21 shots from the foul line (71.4 percent).
The Lady Tigers hit 27 of 53 shots from the field (50.9 percent), 10 of 20 shots from 3-point range (50.0 percent) and 8 of 14 shots from the foul line (57.1 percent).
LSU held a 35-28 rebounding advantage. The Lady Bulldogs had six assists and 14 turnovers, while the Lady Tigers had 15 assists and 16 turnovers.
Bett paced the Bulldogs with 15 points. Mary Kathryn Govero and Porter each added 10 points for the Maroon and White. Ashley Brown had a team-high six rebounds.
Webb paced LSU with a game-high 26 points on a 10-for-20 night from the floor, with four 3-point makes. Jeanne Kenney added 17 points, while LaSondra Barrett scored 11 points. Webb and Barrett each finished with a game-high eight rebounds.
The Lady Bulldogs head back to the road for a showdown with 19th-ranked Kentucky Sunday afternoon. Tipoff is set for noon CT from Lexington. That contest will be televised regionally by Fox Sports Net South.

The motorist who struck and killed a pedestrian near Aspen Village on Friday had not been drinking, a Colorado State Patrol trooper said Sunday.
The state patrol identified the victim as Pedro Granados Sandoval, 49, of El Jebel.
Sandoval's co-workers at Little Annie's Eating House said he was dropped off near a bus stop by another employee who lives at Aspen Village.
Sandoval was in the right-hand side of the westbound lane on Highway 82 when Eduardo Torres-Reyes, 23, of Glenwood Springs, struck him in a 2011 Chevrolet Cruze.
Torres-Reyes and his passenger were not injured.
Trooper Justin Williams said there was no sign of alcohol use by Torres-Reyes. It hasn't been determined whether Sandoval had been drinking before he was hit around 11 p.m., he said.
Torres-Reyes hasn't been charged, but the crash is still under investigation, a state patrol press release says.
Sandoval was supposed to work at Little Annie's on Saturday, where he was remembered as a loyal and happy worker.

The museum's new house style designed by Thonik has been nominated for the International Museum Communication Awards (IMCA) in the category Corporate Design. This new prize honours the best visual communications among museums, arts institutions and galleries around the world. The winners will be announced in Brussels on 29 November.
Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen launched its new house style in January 2007 to coincide with its new status as an independent foundation. Thonik's design is intended to distinguish the museum's communications and public presentation from those of comparable museums.
With its innovative and experimental character, Thonik's graphic system relates to the nature of the museum's 'product', which is presented as its brand: art in the broad sense of the word. Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen's new house style complements the museum's self-image and ambitions as a 'performing institute', in which its identity comprises the totality of its presentations and achievements.

Liberals on the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee are gravely concerned. In truth, they are perpetual grave-concern machines, but this week they have been gravely concerned about Judge Samuel Alito, the nominee to replace Justice Sandra Day O'Connor on the U.S. Supreme Court.
They are gravely concerned that he might be a racist. They are gravely concerned that he might be a crook. They are gravely concerned that he might be for big guys over little guys. That he might be against immigrants, women. That he might have a fetish for strip-searching 10-year-old girls. That he just won't tell them how he would vote on Roe v. Wade, should it ever come up again. That he belonged to a Princeton University alumni organization. Why, this is a man who once said something nice about Robert Bork. Liberals are gravely concerned.
Anyone who has ever attended oral arguments at the Supreme Court recognizes it as perhaps the last bastion of adult behavior, of legal acumen, of truly skilled oratory in this country. It is a quiet place, a respectful place where liberals and conservatives alike struggle diligently to interpret, in their view of the greater good, this country's guiding principles. The Senate Judiciary Committee, in contrast, has become Animal House -- egocentric, infantile, dysfunctional and disgraceful.
That a nominee, any nominee, to the former has to endure an ordeal before the latter is enough to make one rethink "advise and consent," predicated by the Founders on the now-questionable theory that their successors in public service would be at least functionally competent and marginally decent.
For someone of Judge Alito's impeccable character, unqualified accomplishment and obvious adherence to the highest ideals of the judiciary to be subjected to unfettered nastiness by the likes of Kennedy, Durbin, Biden and Schumer - each carrying his own pungent baggage -- is as indicative of a "culture of corruption" as any example one can find. What they have attempted is not the aberrant, in-the-shadows corruption of the few, but the public, institutional corruption of the process.
We are among those, growing in numbers, who believe that liberalism has become an intellectually bankrupt ideology. No stronger proof of that need be exhibited than the morally and ethically bankrupt tactics to which some of liberalism's most prominent adherents have resorted at this week's hearings. The principal witness was not Judge Alito: it was his inquisitors. They witnessed not for any institution that can be seriously referred to as "the world's greatest deliberative body." For that, we should all be gravely concerned.January 12, 2006

Distance : 13 Km
Direction : Mattupetty
Situated at the height of 1700 Mtr above sea level, Mattupetty is located at 13 Km away from Munnar on the way to Top Station. Mattupetty Dam which has been constructed in connection with Pullivasal Hydro-Electric Project. An independent hydroelectric system is functioning near the dam, with the capacity of 2MW. The grass mounts of the Indo-Swiss Project, a great variety of trees and plants are eye catching sights. During day time, even, elephants roaming through the thick Eucalyptus trees.
The Mattupetty Lake spread over 8 Kms. The District Tourism Promotion Council, Idukki District, has made arrangement for boating in this lake. Many varieties of boats are available for boating like speed boat, rover boat, big slow boat etc. Beneath the deep lake, the remnants of Mattupetty Village and railway tracks.
Now wondering, the railways were functioning at Mattupetty in 19th century. Two stations were constructed in Mattupetty and Palar (Echo Point) and the railway was named "Kundalay Valley Light Railways". Four train were operated-"Highrange", "Anaimudi", "Boockanar" and "Kundalai". The railway tracks were completely washed out in a rain and thunder storm in 1924.
The Mattupetty lake and dam is a very beautiful picnic spot. Mattupetty is a place nobody missed to visit while on a trip to Munnar.

When Russia and America began their space programs, it was an absolute competition of intelligence, resources, and abilities. Both nations became obsessed with ballistic missiles. Scoreboard: 1:1. Both nations then dwelled in sending a satellite to space until Soviet Russia launched Sputnik 1. Scoreboard: 2:1. Both nations vowed to send a man in space first until Yuri Gagarin and Alan Sheppard floated outside the Earth's atmosphere. Though Gagarin reached orbit first in an automatically driven aircraft, Sheppard was the first to manually control an aircraft in space. Scoreboard: 3:2. America, eager to catch up, swore to land on the moon first while Soviet Russia vowed to never let America conquer the moon. On July 21st, 1969 Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon declaring the most often quoted line in history. Total Scoreboard: 3:3.
Though both nations achieved uncountable advances in technology, education, and research, in retrospect, the entire race seems a bit juvenile – like two children singing "anything you can do I can do better. I can do anything better than you. No, you can't. Yes, I can. No, you can't..." In the end, both children are evenly matched. One child can accomplish Task A first while the other child can accomplish Task B first. Neither child can accomplish Task A and Task B first at the same time. In other words, both children have their own strengths and weaknesses, and in this light, both children are more or less equal. Sooner or later both children realize that instead of competing against each other, they should be combining their intelligences, resources, and abilities in order to achieve a more challenging task. Today, over a dozen matured "children" have joined together to create the world's most astounding engineering feat, the International Space Station. In this manner, the children who were once enemies have become brothers. In this manner, the countries who were once enemies have become allies. For this reason I believe that if world peace were in any way humanly possible, it could only be attained through human space flight.
I know what you are thinking. "World peace is absolutely impossible. To even think the idea is naive and insane!" Sure, maybe it is impossible, and maybe the thought is naive and insane. But when our grandparents were children, the very idea of human spaceflight was naive and insane. Just because the idea seems silly does not mean we should not dream. Besides, if we weren't dreamers, you probably wouldn't be reading this right now. While human nature tends to differ in ideology, religion, and politics, human nature also tends to band together when facing a task too arduous for the individual nation. Human nature bands together when confronted with a challenge tougher than anything encountered before. Human nature, despite all differences, believes in science.
While I worked as a summer intern at Stennis Space Center, I was lucky enough to meet the astronauts of the STS-132 and STS-134 missions and I noticed in each of them an intense almost saint-like humility — the mark of an astronaut. For example, when I spoke to Michael Fincke, who will break the US record for the longest time spent in space after his next mission, he did not seem like a famous astronaut; he seemed more like the neighbor across the street reminiscing about his family and friends. You know what we talked about? He taught me how to say "hi" in Russian — "piveet." We shared stories about our families worrying for us while we were away from home. We discussed preferences in cookies and fruit — how we both liked strawberries and cookies with macadamia nuts. Michael Fincke, future US astronaut record holder, could talk to a mere summer intern as if we were equals.
In the 2006 movie Namesake, a father leads his son to the end of a pier looking out into the ocean and says "remember this day, remember this day forever — a day we have gone somewhere so far there was nowhere left to go." Garrett Reisman told us that when he climbed on top of a robotic arm over the International Space Station, he called back to his crew saying "You make fun of me because I am short. Well, right now, I'm the tallest guy in the whole world!" I laughed, but at the same time I figured out the cause for the unique mark of humility the astronauts shared. They have reached the furthest limit of their time. They have "seen the world," literally, and in it they saw no boarders between states, no boarders between countries, no racial disparities, no cultural stereotypes, no disparity of status, nothing. They saw the world as it is without manmade boundaries. They had gone somewhere so far that they themselves were beyond manmade boundaries.
Then in order to advance all of humanity, we all must go beyond manmade boundaries. We must think of ourselves first and foremost as Citizens of the World, not Americans, Europeans, Middle Easterners, or Asians. When Neil Armstrong landed on the moon he said "that's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind" not "one giant leap for America." From all over the world, every astronaut since has expressed similar ideas. Oleg Atkov from Russia said that it isn't important whose Earth it is, "just that it is." Sultan bin Salman of Saudi Arabia said "The first day or so we all pointed to our countries. The third or fourth day we were pointing to our continents. By the fifth day, we were aware of only one Earth." Frank Borman from the USA said that "when you're finally up on the moon, looking back at the earth," all differences and nationalistic traits blend and you realize that perhaps there is really one world, and we should get along "like decent people."
It took one look at the Earth from outer space for us to realize how delicate our planet was and initiate the environmental movement in the late 1960s. Maybe if we challenge ourselves further by expanding the horizon of human spaceflight, we'll realize that there is one world and we are all one humanity, one team. It matters not whether we choose to build settlements on the moon or send a man to Mars so long as we challenge ourselves beyond all limits. The future of human space flight is the advancement of humanity, the embracement of brotherhood, and the broadening of our horizons. The future of human space flight is expanding our intelligence, our resources, and our abilities. We should throw away the scoreboard between nations and instead keep track of the score of mankind. Scoreboard: 0: infinity.

Sheshonk was a general under Psusennes II, the last king of the 21st dynasty (1075–c. 950 BCE), and came from a line of princes or sheikhs of Libyan tribal descent whose title was "great chief of the Meshwesh" and who appear to have settled in Heracleopolis in Middle Egypt, although another tradition placed the line in Bubastis in the eastern Nile River delta. Sheshonk probably ascended the throne without a struggle, making Bubastis his residence and marrying his son Osorkon to a daughter of Psusennes II, the last king of the previous dynasty.
According to the Old Testament, "Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem" (1 Kings 14:25–26) in about 930 BC BCE in support of Jeroboam, the pretender who challenged the right of Solomon's son Rehoboam to succeed to the Israelite throne. Sheshonk's victories in Palestine were celebrated by reliefs and inscriptions at Karnak. Although the biblical account reported the looting of the palace and Templetemple, the name Jerusalem did not survive in the Egyptian record. A fragment bearing Sheshonk's name was found at Megiddo.

With the most recent hotfixes bringing in significant nerfs to Mythic Kil'jaeden, only a day after Exorsus' World 2nd kill, the guild's twitter had some words to share with the WoW devs, and the encounter designers in particular:
We'd already heard a fair amount of complaints from both Method and Exorsus previously, on the state Kil'jaeden was in for the first week and more, but these hotfixes do seem to indicate that KJ was overtuned even in Blizzard's estimation (this, in addition to the 10+ undocumented nerfs he had already received prior to Method's World First kill). We've also heard that there will be a big post coming where all the issues they've had with ToS will be discussed by the GM, Alveona:
What do you think about the situation, are Exorsus being too harsh on the devs or do they have a point?

When +17 just isn't enough, it's time to move on to +19. Mione is just shy of that +20 barrier with this most recent solo endeavor in the Court of Stars, but at least it took half the time of the Vault of the Wardens clear, somewhere in the vicinity of 6 hours. Shave just 5+ hours off of that and the solo artist would be able to qualify for the Mythic Dungeon Invitational!
Let's see if that +20 barrier gets broken any time soon!

In this mini guide, we're looking at how to answer the call to battle and reach Argus. The quest will be active once Patch 7.3 goes live.
Please note that this article contains spoilers.
An Introduction to Argus
"Sometimes the hand of fate must be forced…"
Downfall of the Deceiver had dire consequences. Argus is the original homeworld of the eredar, once described as a utopian world whose inhabitants were both vastly intelligent and highly gifted in magic. It has since been twisted by demonic, chaotic energies and has become the stronghold of the Burning Legion and is even referred to as Legion's homeworld. (Source).
Patch 7.3 is the biggest content patch ever introduced to the game. The Heroes of Azeroth will travel to Argus to put an end to Legion once and for all. From a gameplay perspective, the new planet contains three zones and their content is unlocked gradually as you complete the story line.
For the latest information about Patch 7.3, check out our Argus hub.
Argus Zones
The planet is comprised of three zones - Krokuun, Mac'Aree and Anthoras Wastes.
The first area to start the Argus experience is Krokuun. Green circles on the map indicate Invasion Points, golden icons are Lightforged Beacons used to teleport back to and from the Vindicaar. Argus has no flight points or paths and teleporting (traveling) is faster than on Azeroth. You can't teleport between different Lightforged Beacons, but you can teleport to any Lightforged Beacon aboard the Vindicaar. Lightforged Beacons for areas are unlocked through quests.
The Vindicaar
Before we proceed, it's important to talk about the Vindicaar. The vessel plays a huge role on Argus. It serves for transport for both factions and it's important to know what you can find aboard the ship. Every zone will have a separate Vindicaar and it seems we will be using it even in Antorus the Burning Throne raid to travel to the Seat of the Pantheon to fight Argus the Unmaker and imprison Sargeras.
Vindicaar Map
Below is a picture of the Vindicaar map. Important quest givers and turn-ins will always be marked with yellow question or exclamation marks on the map.
The Netherlight Crucible - a system to empower new and existing Relics can be found at 57, 71. Vindicaar Matrix Core - "Warlords of Draenor" style zone perks for Argus can be found at 49, 44. Only one perk can be active at any given time. Examples Light's Judgment Lightforged Warframe The Navigation Console is at 42, 22. You right-click it and pick a Lightforged Beacon to teleport to.
Reaching the Vindicaar
After you unlock the Vindicaar you can use it to teleport back to Dalaran at any time and vice versa. A Lightforged Beacon will be available at Krasus Landing in Dalaran and a portal to Dalaran from the Vindicaar will unlock too, but if you're lost on Argus and need to find a Lightforged Beacon to transport you back to the Vindicaar, it's essentially faster to just use Dalaran Hearthstone and reach the Vindicaar from Krasus Landing in Dalaran.
This is how Krasus Landing in Dalaran looks like if you haven't unlocked the Lightfoged Beacon to the Vindicaar yet. The portal will appear to the left side of the High Vindicator when it becomes available.
Once you descend to Krokuun a portal will unlock that can be accessed at any time. If you want to get to Dalaran, the Vindicaar portal is at 40, 33.
Argus Campaign
In this section, you will learn everything about how to get to Argus and unlock the campaign.
Getting to Argus
The first quest is an auto-accept, which means it will automatically appear in your quest log wherever you are. The Alliance has a different intro than the Horde, but after traveling to Argus, both factions will be completing the same quests.
Alliance Intro
The Hand of Fate (Alliance) As an Alliance player, take the Dalaran portal to Stormwind and go to Stormwind Harbor to talk to Vereesa Windrunner (21, 30) and turn in the quest
Two If By Sea (Alliance) Accept the new quest and speak to Vereesa Windrunner. She will have a dialogue option to set sail for Exodar. Horde Intro
The Hand of Fate (Horde) As a Horde player, take the Dalaran portal to Orgrimmar and go to Bladefist Bay in Durotar to talk to Lady Liadrin on the Sunstrider (58, 12) and turn in the quest.
Two If By Sea You learn that the Draenei crafted a vessel to take you to Argus safely. It's called the Vindicaar, your main transportation hub on Argus. Accept the quest from Lady Liadrin and set sail for Exodar. Turn in the quest by talking to Vindicator Boros on Azuremyst Isle (21, 55) once you arrive. Accept the next quest from him. Aethas Sunreaver: I see the Alliance answered the call as well.
Continuation for Both Factions
Light's Exodus (Alliance) At this point, you will notice the Horde ship that will be just opposite yours and the quests will be the same too. Turn left and take down the path leading to Exodar and Prophet Velen simply by following Vindicator Boros and the rest of the crew (Vereesa & Arathor). Light's Exodus (Horde) Boros tells you to go to Exodar, where Velen and other Draenei gathered in the Vault of Lights. Turn left and follow him and the rest (Aethas and Liadrin) down the path to Exodar. Once you enter Exodar your movement speed will be increased by 60% (Light of the Chosen) and Prophet Velen will speak to you. Vidicator Boros: Come. I will show you to the Vault of Lights. The others await our arrival. Lady Liadrin: Impressive. The Legion won't expect a force this strong. Vinocator Boros: Argus is our ancestral home. We will not see it in the Legion's hands any longer. High Vindicator says: prophet Velen is just ahead, champions. Prophet Velen: Fellow draenei... champions of Azeroth... the time has come to invade Argus. Prophet Velen: We will save our world and put a stop to the Burning Legion... once and for all. Prophet Velen: Come, champion. Let the Light guide your path! When you zone in, you will notice both Alliance & Horde leaders and Illidan talking to Velen. Illidan Stormrage: The Legion grows desperate. We should strike now while their attention remains focused on Azeroth. Prophet Velen: You are right, Illidan. This may be our best chance to gain the upper hand. Talk to Velen to end the quest
The Vindicaar Accept the quest from Velen and board the Vindicaar that's now preparered for your assault. You must establish a beacon to transport you to the vessel. Prophet Velen: Lend me your strength, champion. We will open the way together. Right-click the Light Crystal to activate it (1.1 second cast). Afterward, you will be channeling another spell for 15 seconds until a Lightforged Beacon will appear allowing you to board the Vindicaar that's ready to travel to Argus for the very first time. Prophet Velen: The Exodar has long been crippled by the crash that brought us to this world many years ago. Prophet Velen: Every spare moment, every resource, has gone toward the birth of a new vessel. Our instrument of retribution. Prophet Velen: The way is open. Come, children of Argus, allies, champions. The Vindicaar awaits! Conversation upon boarding the Vindicaar: Lothraxion: My brethren in the Army of the Light await our arrival. Only together will we achieve victory. Prophet Velen: The Light will guide us to them. Romuul, begin final preparations and ensure our forces are accounted for. It is time. Grand Artificer Romuul: Yes, Prophet. Right away. Hand in the quest at Prophet Velen (35, 45 aboard the Vindicaar on Azuremyst Isle).
Into the Night Argus awaits, accept the quest from Prophet Velen to travel to Argus aboard the Vindicaar. Prophet Velen: Let me know when you are ready to depart. Talk to Prophet Velen and click on "I am ready." to travel to Argus. A trailer will play shortly after you find yourself on Argus. Conversation after you enter Argus aboard the Vindicaar Illidan Stormrage: Their next blast will decimate us-- unless we strike first. Prophet Velen: We must destroy the weapon while it is still recharging! Romuul, deploy a bunker below! Grand Artificier Romuul: Bunker deployed, Prophet! Turn in the quest at Prophet Velen and accept the next one.
Alone in the Abyss Prophet Velen has another quest for you. Speak to Romuul to disembark the Vindicaar. Prophet Velen: Romuul, send our vanguard to establish a front. Grand Artificier Romuul: Activating transport array. Prophet Velen: Champion, we will descend together once you are prepared. Grand Artificier Romuul says: On your mark, champion. Talk to Romuul and select the option: "Take me to the surface." Conversation after you descend: Illidan Stormrage: Come, let us show Sargeras' ilk what they have brought upon themselves. Exodar Vindicator: Our home... what has it become? Prophet Velen: Hold your ground! We must protect the Vindicaar with our lives!
On Argus
Three new quests will become available simulatenously. Righteous Fury from Velen and Overwhelming Power from Illidan. Both can be found at 60, 79 in Krokuun (Argus). If you walk down the path, A Stranger's Plea can be picked up from Chieftain Hatuun at 58, 78. Should you decide to go back to the Vindicaar, you will find a portal at 63, 81 in Krokuun (Argus) that will take you back to the vessel.

Review: The new dx eagle is accurate. This is currently my go to
disc for sidearm and backhand, Reason being, the flight is as
predictable as my throw.
It's not as Speedy as the new discs like the wraith pulse destroyer
quarter k etc etc. but if thrown correctly you can throw it about 50
feet less than your distance drivers.
The Fade is quite predictable and as it wears in it becomes less
fadey... just as all the other discs do but without distance loss.
i'm quite surprised at how far this disc flies and how easy it is to

Review: This review is for my 6 year old son. He had been throwing a
150 class Leopard as his driver but recently was given a 150 Eagle.
Almost instantly his drives became longer and more controlled. As
he's still learning to throw properly, this disc is really helping
him develop his drives more effectively. The Leopard in the 150 is
still a good disc but I was impressed by his ability to throw the
Eagle much farther and more accurately.

Review: I bought the Eagle as one of my first discs. I have been
playing about 5 years now, but haven't learned anything good until 2
years ago, and I am a pretty good intermediate player. My drive isn't
long just under 350 but I am very accurate. I personally wouldnt call
a DX Eagle a driver, but the champion one is a good sidearm driver
and great roller. I am here though to review the DX. Even at 174
grams this disc feels extremely light, but it flies in any wind well
anyway. The only time I ever reach for this disc is when I need a
very accurate approach and it needs to either curve around a tree or
skip under something, and man does this disc skip with total control.
I am still trying to ace this one hole at my home course that is 180
ft and cruves left with a lot of tree block. If I had a dollar for
all the times I bounced it off the chains....With this disc I can
make it skip within inches of my target and then it turns even
sharper after coming back up.Great for getting around or under messy
obstacles. It is stable enough to be thrown kinda hard without
turning over on me, and will dfefinately fade at the end, and will
skip if thrown with a hyzer, and a loose grip. If you dont have one,
you are missing the fun way of getting out of a crappy lie and
getting back into the competition. Between the Eagle and the ROC I
don't need any other accuracy approach disc.

Avg Drive: 425-450
Throws: Righty
Throwing Style(s): Backhand, Sidearm
Disc Weights: 149
Review: If youve read any other reviews i have submitted you will
notice that my average drive is now in fact at the 400' mark if not
more. I recently went on a road trip with my friends to play most the
disc courses in colorado (a blast to do) one day however was fairly
windy. I only used my eagle w. 149 for downwind on long holes. Ive
never been that great at throwing this disc, and honestly wasnt too
familiar with it. After playing the frisco course (long heavily
wooded narrow fairways) all day with a back wind on many holes
(including the 636' hole with about a 20' wide fairway) i became
comfortable throwing my eagle. On the long hole i made par (playing
the whole course as a par 3) landing my second drive (only 150')
with my Z Glide under the basket. I wouldnt imagine this without the
eagle making a over 450' arrow straight head high drive. Now knowing
how to throw this disc sidearm (my long drive method: anythign over
350' w/ o moderate dogleg) no wind over 400' no problem. I look
forward to buying an eagle in a heavier weight abt 170 for normal
Over all this disc is great for sidearm drives, And suprisingly easy
not to overpower(i tend to overpower speed 9 discs sidearm)
Another sidearm problem this disc conqures is the fade. I tend to get
alot more fade sidearm than backhand. I decided this minimized fade is
due to the lower throw this disc craves.
Good disc, buy one...

I found a 148 Eagle yesterday and wasn't familiar with it at all. It is fairly worn but no name or Phone # on it so it's mine now. I went out today and played Kilborne in Charlotte NC. On hole one I tried the eagle out and got a 10 ft birdie after the drive. On hole 2 I went to my Orc cause it seems to hook left very consistently when thrown with medium power. I got a good drive but decided to throw the Eagle also since noone was behind me...I tee'd off and it looked like a really good throw at medium power as it disappeared behind the trees I reached down to grab my bag and heard the unmistakeable ching of the chains. I think everyone at Kilborne heard me screaming as this was my first ace. I have only been playing about a month and a half but am catching on pretty quick. The beat up eagle flies very predictably if hysered or anhysered I can already tell it will become a top go to disk. It seems to act like a light Valkyrie or possibly a light Dragon. Take Care and Happy Golfing

Brian; Intermediate Amateur sidearm driver. I find there are very few reviews by people who throw sidearm most of the time, my drive of choice. I find the Eagle to be a great straight distance driver as when released flat it will slightly S with good glide, with a moderate to small amount of fade at the end. I find I must release it flat as it will hyzer quite severely if the outside edge drops. If thrown with the outside edge up it can anhyzer as well. I personally find it similar to the Gazelle but with less fade at slow speeds and slightly more distance.

I've been playing disc golf for a whopping 3 days now, and chose the eagle Dx(168g) as my learning driver after reading the reviews on this site. I think I made an excellent decision seeming as after 3 rounds I can make this driver do anything. I've been playing ultimate for a long time and decided to drive with a right-handed forehand. I get drives in the 250' range consistently(good for a beginner?). It's also quite forgiving and on bad shots only goes 10-15' off my inteneded line. I would recommend this disc to anyone who has played other disc sports and has a fairly strong arm.

I am right hand side armer and would consider myself an advanced beginner .
I have had great luck driving side arm with a Millennium LS -- until I beat
it up. A month ago I saw 2 right hand side arm throwers on my local course.
They were making super long drives without going much higher than about head
height (about 6 feet). Envious of their skills, I had to ask what disc they
were using. The simply said "Eagle 175". I got a Pro Eagle 175g the next
day, and it has added about 50 feet to my drive taken about 7 strokes off my
game. It only took me one game to get used to making the long low throw,
but it is very predictable with the Eagle. There is only a slight fade to
the right at the end of the drive (as it runs out of speed). Since the high
speeds of my side arm throws don't mix with weak plastic and giant oak
trees, I sprung the few extra bucks for the Pro Series. I've hit a few
trees off the tee at high speeds, but they don't even put a scratch on the
Pro plastic! I will never buy a basic driver again. The Eagle is also
pretty forgiving for sloppy throws. I have a Pro Beast 175g and it is
awesome for distance (I can out drive the Eagle by about 40 yards). But,
you must have a perfect release to get that kind of distance. BOTTOM LINE
= If you are a side arm thrower ... have an Eagle in your arsenal.

I have a 150 gram Eagle that was a great beginner disc when I started. Now, I use this lightweight disc as a utility disc. It is quite beat in, and it does almost anything. It glides, it skips, it bounces off trees and keeps going another 50 feet, it turns over, it rolls, it does loops around your opponent's head and then lands squarely in the basket ( maybe no tthat last one, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen with this disc)! The DX Eagle is great when new as a beginner's ifrst driver because of it's glide, turning weaker throws into long gliding shots. When well broken in, it is the perfect utility disc for tree shots, water shots, skip shots, and any other shot that you don't want to use your brand new driver. An excellent disc for all players.

The Eagle is a fast ultra long range driver that is slightly over stable when new but when it is worn it is slightly understable. The Eagle (mine is 168g) has great distance. I am a right-hand back-hand thrower and am an intermediate young player. Unfortunately I did not have a very long time to learn what the Eagle was really like because I broke it on a tree. It got a crack about an inch long going into the centre. The throw was pretty hard but I had hit trees at that speed before and the Eagle had survived. I think the Eagle is a good disc, but it needs some improvement in durability. if you are going to buy an Eagle I suggest getting one made of better plastic like the Champion or Glow.

My Review:
The Eagle is a fast, small-diameter overstable driver. Currently Innova's flagship driver, the Eagle has a similar flight path and stability to the Cyclone but is a little faster with a hair more glide and distance. The Eagle also is a little easier to turn over and has a touch more fade to it. Comparing it to other discs, the Eagle has a tiny bit more turnover resistance than a Gazelle, and a bit less than a Teebird. It has a noticable amount of prounounced fade, not as much as the very overstable drivers such as the Banshee or Firebird, more in the realm of a Cheetah or JLS. The Eagle is especially useful for long straight to left shots, sweeping hyzers, and big anhyzer crush s-curves. As it ages, it will be able to hold a gradual right turn with a little bit of left fade at the end. This disc does take quite a bit of power to milk it for big distance. If you're starting to overpower your understable to stable drivers, the Eagle is a good next step. Distancewise, the Eagle is one of the longest discs on the market if you have the arm for it. It's a step or so longer than the Gazelle or Cheetah and a bit shorter than the Teebird or Valkyrie. The Eagle is also an excellent sidearm driver.

The Eagle is possibly among the best single discs available to all skill levels. New, it is long, a bit overstable, nice S curves, predictable, breaks in nicely. Definitely a long disc. Up there with all the birds for distance (Firebird, Teebird, etc). As it beats up, the Eagle still will fly long and gradually go understable. Witnessed a pinpoint ace of 240' ft at Hornet's Nest in Charlotte, NC on Hole 14, with a beat Eagle thrown by a player of 5 months. Was a religious experience. Eagles are the shiznit. Only criticism about Eagle is sometimes seems to get out of control a bit and likes to S after it is worn, when thrown hard. This is why I think the Teebird is basically a better Eagle for more experienced players. Beginners-GO BUY AN EAGLE. The Eagle flies free....

As long as the colors are barfed anyway, I'm back in Gnome.
I thought the CDE colors were crap. For that matter, I hated most of the CDE interface, too. I installed Ximian Gnome, and the colors were still crap until I changed the color depth on my monitor. Had to do some googling to figure that out, but things finally looked a lot better.
Sun? Hello? How long will this ridiculous behavior persist?
You might look into getting the XFree86 binary distribution for Solaris. Never tried it myself. (Please let me know, if you do.)

Burhan's Marinated Lamb Kebabs with Sumac-Onion Salad
Burhan Cagda's most famous kebab, kusbasi, is the quintessence of what shish kebab should be. It's made from chunks of lamb cut from the loin and interlaced with thin slices of lamb fat cut from the saddle (most kebab houses just use the leg), marinated in spices and grilled over oak.
Slideshow: More Middle Eastern Recipes
- Active:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Aleppo pepper (see Note)
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Turkish Baharat
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless well-trimmed lamb, preferably from the loin, cut into 1-inch cubes
- Kosher salt
- 2 medium white onions, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
- 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
- 1 teaspoon ground sumac (see Note)
- Warm pita bread, for serving
How to make this recipe
In a large bowl, mix the olive oil with the tomato paste, Aleppo pepper, garlic and Baharat. Add the lamb cubes and stir to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Bring to room temperature before grilling.
Light a grill. Thread the lamb onto 4 long skewers and season with salt. Grill the lamb, turning, over moderately high heat for about 5 minutes for medium meat.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, thoroughly toss the onions with 1 tablespoon of kosher salt. Let stand until the onions are slightly soft, about 5 minutes. Rinse and drain well. In a serving bowl, toss the onions with the parsley and sumac. Serve the lamb kebabs with the onion salad and warm pita bread.
Sumac, a tangy Middle Eastern spice, is available at spice shops and online from Kalustyan's (kalustyans.com) and Adriana's Caravan (adrianascaravan.com).
Aleppo pepper is a Turkish crushed chile, which is more robust and slightly fruitier that regular red chile flakes. If you can't find Aleppo pepper, substitute 1/4 teaspoon of paprika and a tiny pinch of cayenne.
Suggested Pairing
Grenache, with its soft red-cherry flavors, balances the tangy notes in this marinade and in the sumac salad. The variety does especially well along Spain's Mediterranean coast, where it's called Garnacha.

Boy Calls Out Cop
A precocious preteen who isn't afraid of a little street-side confrontation called out a police officer for illegally parking during a beverage stop -- and caught it all on camera.
Jeremy, a 12-year-old boy, "found a cop disobeying" while out one day in September. The officer had parked his motorcycle on the sidewalk in front of a Terrible Herbst gas station, Gawker notes, and when the officer walked out with a mega-sized drink in hand, Jeremy wanted to know why exactly he needed to park so haphazardly.
So, the 12-year-old proceeded to call out the cop all while recording the discussion.

THIS is one tablet computer you will not confuse for a smartphone or cram into a pocket.
In the AT330, Toshiba has created one of the largest tablets on the market. Its screen measures 13.3 inches (33.7cm), dwarfing the Apple iPad and delivering something that looks like a thin TV.
This tablet is so big, users are advised to set it down and use two hands to reach both sides of the screen. Thankfully, this arrangement is often handy and a smart way to avoid pulling out a laptop computer.
The AT330's size is clearly its defining feature, but Toshiba is not relying on its size alone to win an audience. This tablet is well made, with an attractive, textured metal rear, a slender but solid 9.8mm form and plenty of connections.
Around its perimeter, users will find two speakers, a screen lock switch, space for a full-size SD memory card, and both HDMI and Micro USB ports to connect other gadgets.
It's more than most slate computers offer and adds flexibility to this tablet.
The ability to slip a still-warm SD card into the side of this tablet, to show off fresh photos, is handy, though there are also built-in cameras front and back.
This tablet is also no slouch in the power department. It uses a 1.4GHz quad-core Nvidia Tegra chip, 1GB RAM and Google's fresh Android Ice Cream Sandwich software to deliver apps speedily.
Even so, it's the massive HD+ screen that makes the biggest impact on its use. The screen has a 16:9 aspect ratio - the same as a widescreen TV - and this makes for comfortable TV and movie viewing.
It's handy in other applications too. There is plenty of room to scan your email list on the AT330's screen, and it's easy to file Gmail into folders when you can select emails with your left hand and their destinations with your right. Similarly, this screen delivers plenty of room for touching up images, reading books, inspecting your calendar, and having several widgets stretch across one homescreen.
Naturally, the keyboard on this tablet is also as large as a regular desktop model, making typing significantly easier.
Having such a large tablet has its downsides too. This computer weighs 1kg - fine for a backpack but too much for a handbag. It also features just 16GB of storage, 12GB of which are available for use, and a proprietary battery charger rather than the more common Micro USB.
Tablet computers don't come much bigger or as easy on the eye. Users looking for a desktop replacement should appreciate its big, bold display.
