Italy's Giorgio Chiellini shows off bite marks on his shoulder. Photo: Reuters
The English press launched a scathing attack on Luis Suarez after the Liverpool striker was seen biting Italian player Giorgio Chiellini on the shoulder during Uruguay's final group match.
Suarez scored two goals against England last week and single-handedly dashed any hopes of the Europeans qualifying.
The 27-year-old told reporters it gave him immense satisfaction to stick it to the English press given the severe treatment he has copped from time to time while playing for Liverpool.

But when Suarez's bite mark was clearly visible on Chiellini's shoulder after Wednesday morning's match, the English press didn't hold back on the adjectives for a man certainly not on their Christmas card list.
The Telegraph's Jim White penned a piece explaining why Suarez is a man "who needs help". He went onto say that Suarez supporters will continue to argue, despite two previous biting charges which saw him suspended, the English press is conspiring to undermine a man they never liked since his move to Liverpool in 2011.
"A player (Suarez) whose ability is without question - as was demonstrated by his brilliant performance against England - has once again behaved as if several vital components in the brain area are not fully functioning," wrote White. "At the time of his toothy strike, the game hung in the balance - to behave in that way entirely jeopardised his team's potential progress.

"What he did wasn't rash, it was entirely self destructive."
The Telegraph also ran an entire back page splash of the incident with the direct headline "Ban this monster" and an accompanying photo of Chiellini's battle wound.

"Chewy Luis at it again: Shock as Suarez caught in new biting row," was the lead story of the day on The Sun's online site, while The Mail Online called for Stephen Spielberg to get back to Amity Island and direct "Jaws III" with Suarez as the new protagonist.
Along with the Jaw III headline, former English referee Graham Poll, who is widely regarded as one of the best modern referees, argued that Suarez, "should not be allowed to kick another ball in this World Cup tournament".
"Referee Marco Rodriguez clearly missed the coming together of Suarez and Italian Giorgio Chiellini," Poll said. "And replays are clear enough to me for the Uruguayan to be charged by FIFA's disciplinary panel."
Adding to the discontent of the English press at the despicable behaviour of Suarez, Everton boss Roberto Martinez chimed into the conversation on ESPN and questioned whether the 2013-14 EPL player of the season is in the right state of mind to be playing football given his brain explosions of late.
"It's about how Luis Suarez is allowed to play the game without carrying that responsibility that you have as a player, being a role model to the younger generation," Martinez said.
"You cannot justify it. This behaviour has happened two times. I seriously think he needs help."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 9/1/2013 (1687 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Winnipeg homeowners face a 3.87 per cent property-tax hike during the same year city councillors plan to spend $1.3 million to increase their office budgets and hire new policy advisers.
On Wednesday, Mayor Sam Katz tabled the 2013 capital and operating budgets, which include a proposed property-tax increase that will cost the average homeowner an extra $57 this year.
The second municipal tax increase in as many years is expected to generate an additional $17.8 million and help pay for the rising cost of police and emergency services, which account for 44 per cent -- $406 million -- of Winnipeg's $921-million operating budget.
One per cent of the property tax increase -- $4.5 million -- will go toward a reserve fund dedicated to fixing streets, lanes and sidewalks.
This year's operating budget represents a $28-million increase over the 2012 budget. The police and fire-paramedic budgets will increase $31 million alone.
Winnipeg also plans to find $13.6 million in savings by delaying filling vacant positions and reducing grants to non-profit groups by $358,000. The city has cut funding to the University of Manitoba's Dutch Elm disease research program, the poverty action strategy and the United Way. Other groups -- including the St. Boniface Museum -- have had funding reduced.
At the same time, the city will spend $722,000 to create a policy development and communications office for council's executive policy committee. Councillors' discretionary ward budgets are set to rise to $114,000 from $74,000.
Katz said Winnipeg still has the lowest municipal taxes in the country and other major cities in Canada have seen taxes rise 38 to 64 per cent in the last decade.
Katz said police emergency services account for the biggest portion of the budget, admitting the rising cost is not sustainable. He said the city has already called for an operational review of the Winnipeg Police Service.
The mayor said he would rather have a share of other growth revenues -- such as a share of the provincial gasoline tax -- to offset the cost of services. "From my point of view, Winnipeg has been a rare island compared to the rest of the Canadian cities for where we've been on property taxes," Katz said.
In the absence of other funding, finance chairman Coun. Russ Wyatt (Transcona) said the city plans to increase property taxes one per cent a year in coming years to devote to fixing streets. Wyatt said the move is one way Winnipeg will be able to address its poor infrastructure.
The city's street renewal budget is set to rise to $50.4 million, up from $30.8 million in 2012.
The proposed tax hike prompted a backlash from some councillors who said it's wrong for them to spend 50 per cent more on their ward budgets at a time when citizens have been asked to pay more for services.
"It's kind of a slap in the face to people that are getting all these cost increases at the same time," said Fort Rouge Coun. Jenny Gerbasi.
Coun. Paula Havixbeck (Charleswood-Tuxedo) said she does not support a tax increase, noting the rise in councillors' ward budgets and the new policy office for executive policy committee totals $1.3 million. She said she plans to do everything she can to find savings that don't affect city services.
Katz said a previous decision to eliminate the EPC Secretariat -- a policy office -- was a mistake. He said councillors will have policy advisers to help with new initiatives and increased ward budgets to improve communication with citizens.
Colin Craig, the Canadian Taxpayers Federation's prairie director called the increased council spending "outrageous" and said city hall should find ways to eliminate unnecessary costs. Craig said taxes have risen more than the average citizen's paycheque and city hall has "taken the easy way out" by raising taxes instead of addressing ballooning salaries.
The city will spend nearly $16 million on increases to police salaries and benefits this year, partially due to an increase in the number of officers.
"I think the bottom line is this should be a period of restraint for city hall," Craig said. "Property-tax increases shouldn't be increasing when there's still inefficiencies and waste."
Winnipeg will also spend $375 million this year on new construction and capital projects, including $6 million on library renewal, $1.1 million to complete the design of the second leg of the Southwest Transitway, $7.3 million for the first of the city's new recycling centres and $10 million to ease traffic congestion in the Polo Park area.

Intelligent Design
Project Runway's newest winner, Leanne Marshall, gets down to business
At 16, Project Runway winner Leanne Marshall skulked around the halls of her northern California high school in baggy skater pants and "old man shirts." Two years later, she had progressed to rockabilly punk, wearing black pleated miniskirts and red patent creepers—"They were so uncomfortable but so cool," she says—with fuzzy zebra-print shirts, and had earned the nickname Leanimal. For any of the millions of viewers who tuned in to watch season five of the fashion reality show, both looks couldn't be farther from the nerdy wallflower the 28-year-old played on TV. But to hear Marshall tell it, her rebellious teens were actually the early signs of the budding designer within. "It was all about experimenting and realizing how you could project a totally different persona through what you wore," she says. "I began to understand the importance of clothing."
Today, it's clear Marshall would prefer to let her designs do the talking. On Project Runway, where she took home first prize and $100,000 in seed money, she played the self-described "silent fashion assassin," keeping her head bowed over her sewing machine while kookier characters, like the leather-clad Stella Zotis (who had a boyfriend called Ratbones), stole the spotlight fighting over fabric swatches and phony alliances. "I didn't do Project Runway to be a television star," Marshall says, via phone in Portland, Oregon, where she lived for three years until moving to New York City last month. "I want to be a fashion designer. I needed that capital to invest in my clothing line. I was willing to do whatever it took, and if that meant possibly making a fool of myself on TV, that was okay."
Instead, the onetime graphic designer often came across as a Diane von Furstenberg on quaaludes, with judge Michael Kors describing her as "just plain sad" after one particularly drab make-over-a-young-professional look. (Marshall had auditioned for Project Runway the previous season and was cut after the second round, presumably after producers thought she'd make for boring TV.) Quietly, she began winning season five's increasingly outrageous challenges, such as designing a dress out of Saturn car parts. Marshall made a mini out of seat covers. Or creating a 1940s look based on A Foreign Affair. (Marshall's never been out of the United States.)
While she admits to a few terrifying moments, such as almost being sent home after the eco challenge—a big blow considering Marshall's own two-year-old Leanimal line drew heavily on sustainable fabrics—she says Project Runway was a positive experience. Since the final show five months ago, for which she produced a romantic collection of fan-pleated gowns and bubble skirts, Marshall has kept in touch with a handful of her castmates, including finalists Jerell Scott and Korto Momolu. Her only regrets are the few barbs she threw at her biggest rival, retro designer Kenley Collins. "Her remarks came across as disrespectful to a lot of people, and all I'll say is I hope she's learned a lot from watching herself on the show," says Marshall, who during one hip-hop challenge sang a rap about Collins: "Yo, Kenley's gonna make an outfit for me/ She better not make it look like it's from 1950!"
Unlike most Project Runway alumni, she has no get-rich-quick endorsement deals or cable channel spin-offs in the works. Such schemes would take her focus off of making it to the upcoming New York Fashion Week, where she won't have the benefits of a TV crew in tow. "Even at 12, I wanted to be Calvin Klein and show in the tents," says Marshall, who in her preteen years sketched costumes for her own ballet recitals. After graduating from San Francisco's Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising, Marshall moved back in with her parents and took up graphic design while trying to launch her Leanimal line, which she sold for cheap at the Sellout Buyout, Sacramento's handmade-goods fair. After a year, she moved to Portland and soon had sold enough $40 dresses out of her tiny apartment to quit her day job. There, she gave herself a challenge straight out of the Project Runway playbook: Create one look every day and offer it online by 5 p.m. "It was incredible practice for the show," says the reality show Rocky, who thinks working so consistently under pressure helped her refine her feminine aesthetic.
Now living in New York with her music composer boyfriend of two years, Marshall finally feels she's ready to compete in the big leagues. Every penny of her TV earnings has gone toward her line, which she's wisely renamed Leanne Marshall. Though contractually she's prohibited from producing any of the looks she created for TV, the designer has moved forward with a predominantly organic spring '09 collection, available on her website (Leannemarshall.com) and in stores such as Seaplane in Portland. "I know what I want," she says, before hanging up the phone. Once again for Marshall, fashion speaks the loudest.

A TRAILBLAZING initiative aimed at supporting mental health patients through the difficult transition back to independent living following their discharge from hospital is being piloted in Swindon.
Staff at Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership have partnered with charities and local organisations, including Swindon Mind, LIFT psychology and the Richmond Fellowship, to help service users through the recovery process and accompany them during their reintegration into society.
A dozen recently discharged service users have so far been invited to take part in the six-month pilot commissioned by Swindon Council, which launched earlier this year.
Pending the results and feedback from those involved, which will be collated in May, AWP is hoping to roll it out across Swindon on a permanent basis.
Newlands Anning, head of professions and practice for the Swindon locality and innovation development lead, is spearheading the project.
He said: "The representatives from MIND or Richmond Fellowship, for example, meet with a service user and facilitate groups and activities to make sure they maintain inclusion in their community after discharge.
"They give them a menu of groups and activities available. It could be that a service user struggles with anxiety and care coordinators can signpost them to agencies or short courses which could help them.
"The care coordinator will help them as long as they need it and it offers the users continuity.
"It started with three service users and since that time the number has quadrupled.
"There was a training programme for the organisations taking part, with mental health awareness and risk management, because there is always a lot of apprehension from people discharged from the secondary service."
As it currently stands, service users are discharged back to the care of their GP. But too often the family doctors are unable to cope or assist with patients' specific needs. It has left many feeling abandoned by the healthcare system and isolated.
"Only those who chose to would take part and whether they want to stay with the programme after a while is their decision," added Mr Anning. "It's about promoting independence and enabling people to go on to better things."
Paula May, managing director of AWP Swindon, added: "This has been a particular problem in Swindon. People don't need our secondary care support but they still need support after discharge. We want to make sure the support is there for them. They can be frail when they leave the secondary service and it is really to smooth that transition."

What is breast cancer?
Breast cancer occurs when abnormal cells in the breast grow in an uncontrolled way.
Breasts are made up of lobules and ducts surrounded by fatty and connective tissue. Lobules produce breast milk and ducts carry milk to the nipple.1
What are the different types of breast cancer?
There are several different types of breast cancer.
- Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) are non-invasive breast cancers that are confined to the ducts or lobules of the breast.1
- Invasive ductal or lobular carcinoma is an invasive breast cancer that starts in the ducts or lobules of the breast and can spread into the breast tissue.1 Invasive breast cancer may be confined to the breast and lymph nodes in the armpit (early breast cancer) or may have spread outside the breast to other parts of the body (metastatic breast cancer).1,2
- Paget's disease of the nipple is a rare form of breast cancer that affects the nipple and the area around the nipple (the areola) and is commonly associated with an invasive cancer elsewhere in the breast.1
- Inflammatory breast cancer is a rare form of invasive breast cancer that affects the lymphatic vessels in the skin of the breast, causing the breast to become red and inflamed.1
What are the symptoms of breast cancer?
The symptoms of breast cancer depend on where the tumour is in the breast, the size of the tumour and how quickly it is growing.1
Breast changes that may indicate breast cancer include:
- a new lump or lumpiness, especially if it's only in one breast3
- a change in the size or shape of the breast3
- a change to the nipple, such as crusting, ulcer, redness or inversion3
- a nipple discharge that occurs without squeezing3
- a change in the skin of the breast such as redness or dimpling3
- an unusual pain that doesn't go away. 3
There are a number of conditions that may cause these symptoms, not just breast cancer. If any of these symptoms are experienced, it is important that they are discussed with a doctor.
What are the risk factors for breast cancer?
A risk factor is any factor that is associated with an increased chance of developing a particular health condition, such as breast cancer. There are different types of risk factors, some of which can be modified and some which cannot.
It should be noted that having one or more risk factors does not mean a person will develop breast cancer. Many people have at least one risk factor but will never develop breast cancer, while others with breast cancer may have had no known risk factors. Even if a person with breast cancer has a risk factor, it is usually hard to know how much that risk factor contributed to the development of their disease.
While the causes of breast cancer are not fully understood, there are a number of factors associated with the risk of developing the disease. Some of the risk factors for breast cancer include:
- being a woman1
- increasing age1
- having a strong family history of breast cancer.1
- having a breast condition such as a personal history of breast cancer, DCIS or LCIS
- a number of hormonal factors, child-bearing history, personal and lifestyle factors 4
How is breast cancer diagnosed?
Diagnosis of breast cancer involves the triple test. This includes:
- a clinical breast examination1
- imaging tests – which may include a mammogram or ultrasound
- taking a sample of tissue (biopsy) from the breast for examination under a microscope.1
Other tests, such as blood tests or bone scans, may be done if symptoms suggest that breast cancer has spread outside the breast.12 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be suggested to assess extent of disease in some cases.
Treatment options
Treatment and care of people with cancer is usually provided by a team of health professionals – called a multidisciplinary team.
Treatment for breast cancer depends on the stage and type of the disease, the severity of symptoms and the person's general health. Treatment usually involves surgery to remove part or all of the affected breast, and removal of one or more lymph nodes from the armpit. Breast reconstruction may be available for women who have the whole breast removed (mastectomy). Radiotherapy, chemotherapy, hormonal therapies, and/or targeted therapies, may also be used.1
Research is ongoing to find new ways to diagnose and treat different types of cancer. Some people may be offered the option of participation in a clinical trial to test new ways of treating breast cancer.
Finding support
People often feel overwhelmed, scared, anxious and upset after a diagnosis of cancer. These are all normal feelings.
Having practical and emotional support during and after diagnosis and treatment for cancer is very important. Support may be available from family and friends, health professionals or special support services.
More information about finding support can be found on this website: Living with cancer. This information deals with some of the challenges experienced by people affected by cancer. It includes information about managing some of the longer term side effects of treatment, how people close to you might feel after a diagnosis of cancer, and where to find practical and emotional support.
Cancer support organisations

2004 Engines Preview
|Gasoline: Volvo Penta
Volvo Penta has no new gasoline engines to report, but it is incorporating a new feature called Electronic Vessel Control (EVC) into its current gasoline and diesel offerings.
In a nutshell, EVC is a communication system that allows your boat's engine, controls, and gauges to interact. EVC was born out of closely examining automotive CAN-bus technology, says Volvo Penta. The CAN-bus system uses numerous processors to receive data and provide an appropriate response for the vehicle and/or information for the driver. For instance, when the accelerator is depressed, the CAN-bus processor acknowledges the need to increase the fuel supply to the engine, and the car goes faster. The same idea applies to boats. The throttle goes forward, and EVC's engine's fuel-system processor determines the need and sends the message. The response is instantaneous. EVC reduces the number of cables running through your vessel and is designed to easily add other ship's systems to completely integrate the craft.
If you're looking for information on any of your boat's systems connected to the EVC, it can be displayed at the helm as text. In addition, your local technician can plug into the system with a handheld computer called VODIA (Volvo Diagnostics) to retrieve engine data and performance history and examine fault codes. The result should be a quicker diagnosis and repair if a breakdown occurs.
Volvo Penta Phone: (757) 436-2800. www.volvopenta.com.

Comments about : 4' x 4' Raised Bed:
I found this raised bed very easy to assemble and use so far. I did purchase the Cedar Garden Bed and used that to treat the wood prior to assembly. I have had it in the ground for two weeks so it is really too soon to tell if the wood will hold up and weather nicely, but as far as functionality goes it works well. I have 4 tomato plants, tomatillo, two types of peppers, cilantro planted and I am looking forward to some tasty salsa come August

A guy on another forum by the name Lawn Ranger has been posting these up lately. They reminded me of an appetizer called Crazy Wings at a place called George's Bar in Waco (if you know Pat Green, you've heard the song about the place) that I may have gone to from time to time back in my college days. 'Cept they fry theirs and LR does his on the grill. I thought I'd give them a shot. Here were the raws. I used chicken tenders instead of chicken breasts cuz I'm lazy and didn't feel like cutting them up. Totally forgot that you have to remove the tendon from a tenderloin and that made it just about as much work.
The chicken was wrapped around a hunk of Monterrey Jack and pickled jalapeno slices, then wrapped in bacon. Then it marinated in 1 cup of Chardonnay, 2/3 cup of oil and some salt and pepper for 1 hour or so. I set up the grill with the Adjustable Rig for a raised direct cook at 400F.
A little while in, cheese oozing out.
Plated up with some Brussel sprouts.
Even though I think mine could use some work, they came out really good. You could definitely taste a hint of wine from the marinade. Unfortunately, my horrible wrapping job allowed a lot of the cheese to melt out. I think next time, I'll wrap the bacon perpindicular to the way I rolled the chicken up to block those big holes I had. I'll probably also go with chicken breasts, cut them smaller and make them more bite sized. Think appetizers instead of meal sized. And I think I'll do them indirect. There was a lot of dripping down onto the coals resulting in a ton of smoke during this cook. Definitely gonna work on these and get them perfect, but LR is onto something here.

We've been telling you all week long about the bitter cold air coming our way, and it's now knocking on the door.
If you have outdoor stuff you need to get done, such as running errands, finally getting those Christmas lights down, etc., then you'd better do it Saturday because you'll regret it if you put it off until Sunday. Skies will be partly cloudy Saturday, with only the slight chance for a stray late afternoon rain shower along and north of I-69. Highs soaring into the mid-40s, but it's also going to be a windy day, with southwest winds at 15 to 25 mph.
The Arctic cold front arrives Saturday night with window-rattling wind and some possible snow showers. Temperatures will drop to around 20, with 40 mph wind gusts possible.
Bitterly cold and continued windy Sunday, with steady temperatures in the low 20s (wind chills near zero). The bitter cold weather will stay with us through Wednesday before relaxing its grip...just in time for some snow to arrive later Thursday into Friday.

A local radio station had announced a competition: cook the best three course meal and you and your fellow chefs could win a trip to Hawaii! Each team must have five entrants, and must consist of an entree, a main and a dessert.
Five people now stood in Mr Black's kitchen arguing over whose recipes should be used. Each person had brought their three recipes with them and placed them on the table.

I assume you'll still need the password for in-app purchases within free apps?
Hopefully we can still keep the setting that asks for the password every time. I use it along with Password Pilot in order to eliminate having to enter the password manually, but at the same time keeping me from accidentally purchasing anything by at least having to tap OK. Works for me.
Happy to know that I don't need password pilot anymore!
Finally i can go into an apple store and download free apps without first putting in my itunes account, putting password, installing, then signing out. It'll now be that much easier to pull pranks like putting onlive desktop with full windows 7 desktop on all the ipads. Lol almost as good as the days of jailbreakme.com and jailbreaking apple store iphones

What began in 2002 as a comprehensive global vehicle safety program for Monsanto's business drivers has broadened in scope, making road safety a component of Monsanto's commitment to corporate social responsibility.
While attention to road safety by most companies stops where their direct influence ends, Monsanto is among a select number of enterprises that understand driving is likely an employee's riskiest daily activity. Monsanto views road safety as an aspect of employee well-being, community outreach and global sustainability.
Monsanto's recognition of road safety as a global imperative is supported by predictions made by the United Nations. From a worldwide perspective … Full Article »

Corn futures proved unable to sustain their bullish response to the weekly USDA Export Sales report. It indicated that the latest total had reached 361,000 tonnes, which slightly exceeded the largest pre-report forecasts and topped the average for the previous four weeks by 61%. It seemingly suggests the price weakness experienced in recent weeks is finally rendering U.S. corn more attractive to international buyers. On the other hand, the late-morning setback was not at all encouraging. March corn was unchanged at $6.9075/bushel around midsession Friday, while December slipped 1.5 cents to $5.525.
Burgeoning Chinese demand is reportedly the main factor powering soybean futures higher at this point, although many in the industry would also point to persistent dryness over Argentine soybean fields for a larger portion of recent gains. However, the Export Sales report was not at all supportive of the market Friday morning, since it stated weekly net sales for the 2012-13 crop year at just 119,500 tonnes, whereas a figure in the 300,000-600,000 tonne range was anticipated. That very likely caused the setback from its early highs. Long liquidation and pre-weekend book squaring reportedly pushed prices into negative territory around midday. March beans were trading 3.5 cents lower, at $14.8425 late Friday morning, while March soyoil had fallen 0.73 cents to 50.58 cents/pound; March meal gained $1.9 to $439.2/ton.
Wheat futures reacted well to the weekly Export Sales report, but suffered a belated setback as well. The USDA stated the result for last week at 699,300 tonnes, whereas the largest pre-report forecast had reached 'just' 600,000. When combined with their early soybean-led gains, it was not at all surprising to see nearby wheat futures trading strongly soon thereafter. Conversely, the mid-morning bean reversal weighed upon grain futures as well. March CBOT wheat futures had risen 1.25 cents to $7.225/bushel around midsession Friday, while March KCBT wheat lost 0.25 cents to $7.57, and March MGE futures climbed 3.25 cents to $8.0975.
The weekly USDA Export Sales report may have boosted cattle futures Friday morning. The data is usually seen as old news, since another USDA agency publishes a preliminary weekly sales figure each Monday, but the fact that the latest figure was the largest since last June probably encouraged CME buying. Other wire service sourced cited the stress exerted by wintry weather upon cattle in Great Plains feedlots for a portion of the rise, since such conditions have the potential to reduce market-ready supplies. April cattle climbed 0.52 cents to 127.52 cents/pound in late-morning activity, while August gained 0.20 cents to 125.35. Meanwhile, March feeder cattle advanced 0.55 cents to 141.25 cents/pound, and August had jumped 0.72 cents to 154.20.
Hog futures traded in mixed fashion through much of Friday morning. Discouraging cash market developments apparently remained the general theme as the weekend loomed, with markets across the Midwest reportedly called 0.5 to 2.0 cents lower in early trading. We suspect we have considerable company in thinking the market will post a major seasonal reversal at some point in the days and weeks just ahead, but the complex is certainly offering few hints of an impending reversal at this time. April hogs edged 0.5 cents higher, to 82.45 cents/pound in late Friday morning trading, while June slipped 0.07 cents to 91.62.

AUSTIN, Texas - Tea party-backed attorney Ted Cruz swept past establishment Republican Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst to win a runoff Tuesday and seize the GOP nomination for the U.S. Senate.
- Texas Secretary of State: Election Information
- Harris County Election Information: Harris Votes
- More Information: Politics Section
"This is a victory for the grass roots," Cruz told supporters in Houston. "This is how elections are supposed to be decided, by we the people."
Cruz used advantages in nearly all of Texas' heavily populated counties to secure the party's nod to succeed retiring Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison. He'll meet Democratic former state Rep. Paul Sadler in November.
"We are witnessing a great awakening," Cruz said in his victory speech. "Millions of Texans, millions of Americans are rising up to reclaim our country, to defend liberty and to restore the Constitution.
The Republican runoff, which gained national attention, was among several Tuesday in Texas pitting mainline Republicans against tea party-backed candidates in races for the U.S. House, the state Legislature, the Texas Supreme Court and other offices.
"I congratulate Ted Cruz on a hard-fought victory and a well-executed campaign," Gov. Rick Perry said. "Ted is a force to be reckoned with: an excellent candidate and a great conservative communicator. I call on all conservative Texans to rally behind Ted Cruz in November so we can remake the U.S. Senate in the image of Texas for the good of all Americans."U.S. Senator Republican
Dewhurst had offered his 14 years of state government experience against Cruz, a former Texas solicitor general running in his first election. Dewhurst counted Gov. Rick Perry among his backers and topped Cruz by 10 percentage points in the May primary but fell short of the 50 percent of the vote he needed to avoid the runoff.
"This is not quite the way I envisioned the evening," said Dewhurst, adding that he had spoken with Cruz, congratulated him "on a hard-fought victory" and offered support.
Dewhurst thanked his supporters, who were gathered at a Houston hotel.
"Thanks for standing up for Texas," Dewhurst said. "Now we got beat up a little bit but never gave up and we can know never gave up principals."
He thanked Texas Gov. Rick Perry and the rest of the GOP establishment that backed him in the race.
"Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst fought a valiant fight," Perry said. "I'm proud to call David my friend. He and I will stand shoulder to shoulder once again in the spring, fighting for Texas -- the most conservative state in America."
National conservative groups, including FreedomWorks and the Club for Growth, spent millions to help Cruz match Dewhurst's personal fortune and tighten the race. Dewhurst spent about $25 million of his own money on the race.
Dewhurst has overseen the Texas Senate as lieutenant governor since 2003, but Cruz contended Dewhurst was too moderate for sometimes showing a willingness to compromise with Democratic state senators to ensure the flow of legislation.
"It's a huge disappointment, but I think it's a sign of the times and we'll just have to see where we go, but we've got to pull together," Dewhurst supporter Cathy Brock said.
Cruz also looked to match tea party successes elsewhere this year. Richard Mourdock ousted 36-year Senate veteran Richard Lugar in Indiana, and Deb Fischer in Nebraska defeated two better-known Senate candidates. Cruz drew support from former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint. Dewhurst dismissed the out-of-state backers as outsiders meddling in state politics.
Tea Party Express Chairman Amy Kremer called Cruz's victory "monumental" and proof that "the tea party is alive and ready to own 2012."
"We could not be more proud of this historic tea party victory tonight against the Texas establishment," she said.
Enthusiasm for the Senate race kept turnout higher than normal for a runoff election that also included races for the U.S. House, the state Legislature, the Texas Supreme Court and other offices. Experts predicted more than 800,000 voters out of about 13 million who were eligible.
"It's my duty, I know I should and I do," retiree Elizabeth Reagen, 93, said outside a Dallas-area precinct. "I'm not always sure that I'm voting for the right person."
She voted for Dewhurst but said she didn't like all the attack ads that marked both sides of the campaign.
"Of course, that's part of it," Reagen said. "But the older I get, the more it bothers me."
Don Steinway, 76, a retired commercial pilot in Houston and tea party advocate, voted for Cruz.
"We're just tired of the government ignoring the Constitution," Steinway said. "I'm tired of these people who promise something for nothing."
Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa called the win "the worst thing that could have happened to Texas Republicans."
"It's a tea-flavored mutiny, plain and simple," he said.
Democrats, who haven't won a statewide election in Texas since 1994, picked Sadler, from Henderson in East Texas, over retired San Antonio educator Grady Yarbrough as their choice for U.S. Senate.
Neither raised much money and Yarbrough failed to comply with federal election laws concerning where he had raised money or how he has spent it, according to the Federal Election Commission.
In all, there were 25 Republican and 12 Democratic runoffs, including two Railroad Commission races, one Supreme Court race, three State Board of Education races, eight U.S. House and 17 Texas Legislature races.
Among them were fierce Democratic congressional races in Dallas-Fort Worth and San Antonio.
State Rep. Marc Veasey of Fort Worth had a narrow lead in early votes over longtime Hispanic activist and former state Rep. Domingo Garcia for a new congressional district in the Metroplex, one of four new Texas districts thanks to the state's booming population. Veasey turned out African-American voters in Fort Worth in the May 29 primary and Garcia tried to mobilize his base in Dallas.
In San Antonio, former U.S. Rep. Ciro Rodriguez looked for a chance to regain his seat from Republican Quico Canseco, and was locked in a tight race with state Rep. Pete Gallego, a rising star in the Democratic Party.
Republicans had similar congressional battles.
Roger Williams, a close ally of Gov. Perry, beat tea party-favorite Wes Riddle in an Austin-area district. Along the Gulf Coast, state Rep. Randy Weber of Pearland defeated Felicia Harris, a Republican party activist, to secure the GOP nomination in the district now represented by retiring Ron Paul. Weber will face former Democratic Rep. Nick Lampson in November.
In far Southeast Texas, financial planner Stephen Takach tried to keep former one-term congressman Steve Stockman from securing the GOP nomination in another new district. The results remained close.
The outcomes of Texas House and Senate runoffs could make the Legislature a more tumultuous place.
Veteran Republican Sen. Jeff Wentworth of San Antonio lost in his tough runoff campaign against emergency room physician Donna Campbell, a tea party leader making her second bid for office.
In state House races, senior committee chairmen Rep. Sid Miller of Stephenville and Rep. Chuck Hopson of Jacksonville were defeated in anti-incumbent, tea party insurgencies. Miller lost to family doctor J.D. Sheffield, of Gatesville. Hopson, a former Democrat, lost to Travis Clardy, an attorney from Nacogdoches.

You have no idea how to equip a WHM yet you find yourself qualified enough to judge someone's equipment which is pretty nice (except for STR rings, but really only difference pre-40 would be astrals) and not just judge but get ****** off with someone who did not know about your noob equipment ideas. In the same time you don't know why to cast Drain (hint - it causes damage, imagine that!) trying to play a BLM and you failed at simple crowd control situation, again, being a BLM.
You are complaining that a lv 35 WHM in exp party uses MP items instead of MND and does not have +1 seer's feet. You really believe someone has to buy those feet for awesome +1 MP over normal ones and inability to store them unless you buy whole +1 set?
Just delete that account, save sanity for yourself and others who might have misfortune to play with you.

Lane Goodwin – Thumbs Up For Lane – Passes Away This Evening
Lane Goodwin – the McLean County, Kentucky, boy who bravely fought a long battle against a rare childhood form of cancer has sadly lost his battle with cancer at 7:53 PM on Wednesday, October 17, 2012.
The Beech Grove, Kentucky, 13-year-old was diagnosed in 2010 with Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma Stage IV – a rare and very aggressive form of childhood cancer. Lane was able to fight the disease repeatedly but relapsed again in May of 2012.
His battle with cancer united everyone – from strangers to superstars – to give Lane a "thumbs up." A Facebook page named Prayers for Lane Goodwin was established in his honor, to share those "thumbs up" and to give 317,947+ fans a place to pray for this wonderful boy and lend support to his family and friends.
Lane is survived by his parents and his brother. Funeral arrangements have not yet been set.
We join everyone in expressing our sympathy for Lane's passing. This amazing little boy touched lives he never knew about. His short life is a testament to the compassion and caring that is in us all.

Lentils are high in protein and fiber and are one of the best vegetable sources of iron out there. They're popular in India, the Mediterranean, Pakistan and the Middle East, and are easily found in any neighborhood grocery store in the United States. Lentils are also inexpensive, so a great pantry item for families to stock up on. But once your pantry is full, will your kids eat these little legumes? Maybe.
Easy ways to get your kids to eat lentils:
1. Bribery: "Eat these lentils, Darling, and you can finally get a puppy!"
2. Threats: "You'll finish your lentils, Johnny, if we have to sit at the table all night!"
3. Punishment: "If you don't finish your lentils, there will be no TV for a month!"
4: Bake them into cookies: "Another cookie, dear?"
Which would you prefer?
Let's just say you go with option 4. Bal Arneson, Spice Goddess and lover of legumes, created these cookies that are so loaded with tasty stuff — chocolate chips, almonds, pumpkin seeds — that the kids won't even notice the lentils. In fact, neither will the grownups, so when you make these, be sure you make enough to slip into everyone's lunch bag.
- 1 cup mixed lentils
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup quick rolled oats
- 1 cup slivered almonds
- 1 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Cook the lentils in boiling water for 35 minutes. Strain the lentils and crush with a fork.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a cookie sheet or line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, cream the crushed cooked lentils, butter, and brown sugar together and then add the egg and blend. Add the flour, baking soda, and vanilla. Stir in the oats, slivered almonds, pumpkin seeds, and chocolate chips and mix well.
Drop the cookies by the spoonful onto the prepared baking sheet and flatten. Bake the cookies for 13 to 18 minutes and allow to cool on a baking rack.
Yield: 24 cookies (or 12 large)
Bal's Lentil Cookies are one of the most popular recipes on Cooking Channel, meaning you're looking at it. But has anyone made these cookies? Let us know what you think!

Funny news day — lots of little things popping, some drawing much more attention than others, hard to get perspective. There's a common theme among them, however. Even though there's lots of growth in new types of environments, there's a lot of work in bridging them, too.
One example is how browsers are starting to expose Flash Player local storage… from the FAQ:
"Integration with browser privacy controls for managing local storage — Users now have a simpler way to clear local storage from the browser settings interface, similar to how users clear their browser cookies today. Flash Player 10.3 integrates control of local storage with the browser's privacy settings in Mozilla Firefox 4, Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 and higher, and future releases of Apple Safari and Google Chrome."
Letting webpages store more-than-cookie-sized data is a good idea, as recent HTML5 local-storage work shows. But as cross-site tracking and personality databases become more worrisome, it makes sense to expose integrated local-storage to public control however people wish to control it. The good news is that different parties can (and do) work together to bring this about. Progress.
Another example is the Wallaby project… not as dramatic as Techmeme may paint it, but it's still useful to be able to bring basic SWF assets into a different delivery environment. Fragmentation is natural during fast evolution, but connecting such silos is natural too. Progress.
A subtler example is from the Dreamweaver team this week, about the differences in touch events across different WebKit-based browsers. Touchscreens and scrolling forms, or preventing doubled events when there's also a trackball controller… natural for fragmentation to occur, and natural to bridge that fragmentation too.
More obvious is the work that Adobe's Digital Publishing group has been doing… working with major publishers to bridge across all the various islands of new devices rapidly appearing. This will soon help smaller publishers too.
Screaming headlines may clash and obscure significa, but the real pattern underlaying the news is easier to see: we're rapidly gaining a wide variety of connected digital screens, and the big work is in helping anyone to write to them. There's daily, incremental progress towards that goal… connecting those silos, bridging those islands.

Haven't been posting much lately because work has been hectic and I've been having photobucket problems. Nothing would upload last week and it kept giving me an IO Error message, whatever that is. Thought I would try this moring to see if it worked and it did. Yippee!!
Not this past weekend, but the one before, I did a brisket. Tried Dr. BBQ's injection but really couldn't tell if it did anything. I couldn't taste it and I personally wasn't happy with my brisket. Seemed a bit dry. Took about 15 hours at 250.
Cut the point off and did some burnt ends while also cooking some sausage cheese balls on the Mini.
Wednesday, I wanted to do a spatchcock chicken, but by the time I got to the store and realized all they had were partially frozen (more on the frozen side), I knew I didn't have time. So I picked up some brats. I've heard of some people rolling up a paper towel and soaking it in oil, either canola or olive and then sticking it in through the bottom vent and lighting it so I thought I would give it a try. (I usually do the paper towel trick, but put it on top of the coals and then build a charcoal pyramid over it for my Mini). Not sold on this method, but will try it again a few more times. Seems to take longer, but had a more uniformly lit bed of coals when it was ready to go.
Then on Thursday, I did a chicken. Was going to just do a spatchcock chicken and I wanted to use what was left of my sample of Dizzy Pig Mediterranean-ish. Turned out I didn't have enough, so I cut the chickens in half and the other one got John Henry Texas Chicken Tickler. Cooked raised direct at about 400 until the breast hit 160.
Unfortunately, no cooks from this past weekend. It was my turn to work the weekend, but I'm ready to get back on it.
