Andrew Flintoff at Gabbatoire
It was a mixed day for Andrew Flintoff at Gabbatoire last Sunday. He was playing a competitive game of cricket on a foreign ground after a very long time. So, it must have been special, but, he could not play as well for his team Brisbane Heat as a big player like him should have.
With his poor bowling in the penultimate over of the game, Flintoff had given the opposition team a chance to snatch win from the jaws of defeat, but, thanks to Ryan Duffield who bowled some god low full-tosses at the end to keep the Melbourne Stars two runs away from the target.
Ben Strokes Clone of Andrew Flintoff
Steve Harmison thinks Ben Stokes is good enough to be compared to the legendary all rounder Andrew Flintoff.
But, the former fast bowler has urged the England team management to let the Durham player express himself and not make him curb his natural instincts.
According to Harmison, Stokes, just like Flintoff, is a free flowing player and he can succeed at the international level only by playing the way he knows. The coaches should not try to transform his game even if he plays a bad shot or two every now and then.
Ali Proves Naysayers Wrong
Moeen Ali has proved all those people wrong who were saying that he is just a part time spinner and he would not be able to create that much of an impact on the Indian batsmen in the 5-match test series that has finished just recently.
English Collapse Under Indian Pace
The English middle order collapsed yesterday against the inexperienced pace attack of India at Nottingham.
At one point of time, the Three Lions were on the driving seat with Gary Ballance and Sam Robson playing very well, but, as soon as Ishant Sharma got both of them dismissed with the reverse swinging old ball in the second session, the pressure was back on England and their middle couldn't soak it up.
The likes of Ian Bell and Matt Prior who are the seasoned campaigners of the team fell cheaply on a dead deck and left the hosts in more than a spot of bother.
Bailey Proves Worth As Leader
The T20 captain of the Australian Cricket Team, George Bailey, proved his worth as a leader in the seventh edition of the Indian Premier League as well. He was appointed as the captain of the Kings XI Punjab side despite some other strong contestants being there for the post. The Tasmanian lived up to the faith showed in him by the higher officials of the franchise and led the team wonderfully throughout the tournament. Had he been slightly lucky, he would probably have made his team champion.
Rumors Abound; Flintoff Return
There have been reports that Andrew Flintoff might resume his cricket career during the upcoming county season by representing his former team Lancashire in the T20 competition.
Lancashire has denied those reports though. According to the Manchester based club, they haven't made any such offer to the former England captain till now.
Flintoff has actually been spending a lot of time with the Lancashire first team of late. He has been practicing as well as mentoring the youngsters.
Andrew Flintoff has criticized the cricket controlling body in England i.e. ECB for bulldozing Kevin Pietersen into an early international retirement.
The former English all rounder reckons that one man can't be responsible for everything that went wrong with the Three Lions on the Ashes tour. There would have been other reasons as well.
Flintoff is also not happy with the senior England guys. According to him, they should have acknowledged the fact that the Ashes whitewash was a result of everybody not playing up to his potential.
Andrew Flintoff thinks that the English top order batsman Jonathan Trott who left the Ashes tour and returned home after the Brisbane test match due to stress illness will be able to make his comeback to international cricket.
Trott was bounced out by Mitchell Johnson in both the innings of the Brisbane test match.
After that game, the England coach Andy Flower announced that the Warwickshire right hander would not play any more games in the series and would return home immediately as he was struggling with stress illness.
Eoin Morgan has said that the England team management has got full faith in the abilities of the opening batsman Michael Carberry despite his poor outings in the ODIs so far.
Carberry has recently begun his ODI career and has played 3 games so far. He has just managed to score 15 runs in those 3 games at a pathetic average of 5.
The stand-in captain of the England one day side, Eoin Morgan, has said that he has got full faith in his young players and he expects them to put up a better performance in the third ODI game against Australia tomorrow.
England is currently down by 0-1 in the series courtesy the huge defeat that they had suffered the other day at Old Trafford. One more defeat would make it impossible for the hosts to win the series.
In the Old Trafford game, England was completely outsmarted by the Kangaroos. The men in red struggled both with bat and ball and ended up being defeated by 80 odd runs.

Makita impact driver
You may ended your quest when you discovered the Makita impact driver brand during the search for top-quality power tool.

Power tools in general, and cordless tools specifically, have allowed experienced amateurs and professionals to cut, nail, drill and shape faster, and with more accuracy.

Makita impact driver is the most famous eighteen volts Cordless Impact Driver on the market today. Ion battery and optimum charging system produce two hundred and eighty percent more lifetime work with two times more cycles. It features a four pole motor with the dual steel ball. I chose the Makita because of the price for a five piece kit compared to say that of a De Walt five piece kit. Also, Makita's solution of offering the same driver with a less capable battery at a lower price point is just plain dumb.
Makita Hammer Drill
A Makita impact driver specialist is standing by to assist you, and this gives great comfort when buying a Makita product. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the other power tool manufacturers. I use sites such as BizRate in finding the best pricing and availability for Makita hammer drills and other Power Tools – it pays to shop around and research properly. It enables Makita to build a small but powerful tool that performs well in all kinds of job site conditions.
Makita impact driver or the Bosch tools are extremely robust and reliable, and if I had to make my lively hood from these tools, I would stick with the Makita or the Bosch tools.

The Makita Corporation
Makita is a big sponsor in AMA Motocross Racing. Makita is a consumer products company that provides you with portable electric power tools and related accessories. Makita impact driver Fastenings will be the company continuing the nailer business.

Makita Accessories

Some retailers do not specialize in industrial quality Makita Power Tools and Accessories so for some of the larger or more specialist machines you would need to seek out a specialist dealer. You can Contact details through the Makita main website, just select contact from the main menu and a representative will reply (from experience this is usually within a day or two) or failing that check out a power tool forum and post a question on there.

The mission of Renoback.com is to drive support of the Circular Economy and municipal Zero Net Waste mandates across North America and we relay this commitment through our social and mainstream media channels.
The very obvious benefit to diverting these solid waste materials, aside from the cost savings to consumers, is that by encouraging our growing audience to 'pitch in' instead of 'pitching out', we can reduce the methane and C02 emissions that according to scientific research play a significant role in climate change. Add to this the growing global consumer trend to shop online combined with a growing demand to deal with companies and service providers who are socially and environmentally responsible, and Renoback.com is a win-win for everybody.
This free online classified is like no other in that it drives its message to reuse and repurpose those new and used building and renovation materials that are too often simply dumped in our landfills out of convenience.

Renoback.com seeks to divert those materials that are needlessly disposed of by offering a user friendly platform that is driven by buyers and sellers and providing an active audience seeking the materials listed, and the significant cost savings to the buyer and the sellers (we drive the message that tossing re-marketable materials costs money).
More and more new materials can be found on Renoback as material suppliers have connected with the value of using this site to liquidate over stocked, mis-sized and stale dated flooring, counter tops, windows, doors, tools and many other building materials that users seek to complete their home building and renovation projects.

Products created from recycled materials are popular, reclaimed barn board and Douglas fir structural beams are highly sought after feature items on our site, as are old doors and windows which are commonly transformed into unique furnishings.
Consumers using Renoback are very unique. This was proven recently when Renoback.com diverted a 5000 square foot steel barn from a scrap yard when the owner preferred to give this building away for free rather than scrap it. After several attempts to dispose of this fairly new building through other reputable and established online classifieds, he tried Renoback.com. It took less than 24 hours for him to achieve his objective.

Editor's note: It is one of my long-term goals to write--or better yet, have someone more qualified write--a church history of Washington, D.C. (hopefully with a good chapter on the Washington ministry of Alexander Crummell). Much like reading global church history, such a story no doubt would reveal us to be sinful and fallen, with prejudices and quirks that have changed over time. But it would also reveal the power of the Holy Spirit working through God's people in both ordinary and extraordinary circumstances.
If you are that highly qualified writer, or if you happen to be interested in your own past, the Historical Society of Washington, DC has compiled a useful resource from which to start. http://www.historydc.org/pdf/Religious_History_Resources.pdf
Have fun!!

The Granny Smith apple is named after Maria Smith, an orchardist in Ryde, Sydney. Maria discovered the apple growing on her property as a 'sport' from some French crab apples. As a true mutation, the original seedling gave rise to more, which were originally exhibited as "Smith's seedlings", then "Granny Smith's seedlings", and finally just "Granny Smith's". The apples remained a local curiosity until after Maria Smith's death, the first large-scale cultivation not taking place until 1895. More

1. Ice Bucket Challenge, in 2014 : FAD
The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge is a viral phenomenon in which participants are challenged to be filmed having a bucket of ice water poured over their heads. Each participant then gets to nominate up to three other people to do the same. Usually the nominees are given a day or two to comply, but can make a charitable donation is they want to avoid the icy shower. Happily, many participants opt to take the challenge, and also make a donation.
4. *Complain : CARP
The word "carp" used to mean simply "talk" back in the 13th century, with its roots in the Old Norwegian "karpa" meaning "to brag". A century later the Latin word "carpere" meaning "to slander" influenced the use of "carp" so that it came to mean "find fault with".
Carp are freshwater fish that are used as food around the world, although they aren't very popular in North American kitchens. The ornamental fish that we know as goldfish and koi are all types of carp.
8. "The King and I" setting : SIAM
"Anna and the King of Siam" is a semi-biographical novel written by Margaret Landon and first published in 1944. The book tells the largely true story of Anna Leonowens who spent five years in Siam teaching English to the children and wives of King Mongkut. The novel was adapted as a 1946 movie of the same name starring Irene Dunne and Rex Harrison. Then followed a 1951 stage musical titled "The King and I". The musical was written as a vehicle for Gertrude Lawrence, who played Anna. Rex Harrison was asked to play the King, but he turned it down and Yul Brynner was cast instead. A movie version of the stage musical was released in 1956, famously starring Yul Brynner and Deborah Kerr.
12. Corp. milestones : IPOS
An initial public offering (IPO) is the very first offer of stock for sale by a company on the open market. In other words, an IPO marks the first time that a company is traded on a public exchange. Companies have an IPO to raise capital to expand (usually).
14. In ___ of : LIEU
As one might perhaps imagine, "in lieu" comes into English from the Old French word "lieu" meaning "place", which in turn is derived from the Latin "locum", also meaning "place". So, "in lieu" means "in place of".
17. W.W. II general Bradley : OMAR
Omar Bradley graduated from West Point in the class of 1915, along with Dwight Eisenhower who also attained the rank of General of the Army. Bradley was the last person to hold the rank of a five-star commissioned officer, and he was the first general to serve as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. I was struck by a quotation from Bradley from later in his life:
Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than about peace, more about killing than we know about living.
18. Katherine of "27 Dresses" : HEIGL
Katherine Heigl is best associated with the television show "Grey's Anatomy" on which she plays Dr. Izzie Stevens. That's not a show I ever watched, but I did enjoy the espionage show "State of Affairs" in which Heigl played the lead. I guess I was in the minority though, as NBC cancelled "State of Affairs" after only one season …
24. *Extract with heat, in a way : SMELT
Metals are found in ore in the form of oxides. In order to get pure metal from the ore, the ore is heated and the metal oxides within are reduced (i.e. the oxygen is removed) in the chemical process known as smelting. The oxygen is extracted by adding a source of carbon or carbon monoxide which uses up the excess oxygen atoms to make carbon dioxide, a waste product of smelting (and, a greenhouse gas).
Smelt is the name given to several types of small silvery fish, examples being Great Lake smelts and whitebait smelts.
31. Hunky-dory : A-OK
Our term "A-OK" is supposedly an abbreviation for "A(ll systems are) OK", and arose in the sixties during the Space Program.
Surprisingly (to me), the term "hunky-dory" has been around a long time, and is documented back in the mid-1800s. Nobody's really sure of its origin, but some say it is an Anglicization of Honcho dori, that back in the day was a street of ill repute in Yokohama, Japan.
39. Swing successor : BEBOP
The jazz term "bebop" probably came from "Arriba! Arriba!", words of encouragement from Latin American bandleaders to their musicians.
44. *The Mikado in "The Mikado," e.g. : BASS
"The Mikado" is a wonderful comic opera by Gilbert and Sullivan, set in the exotic location of Japan. "Mikado" is a former term for the "Emperor of Japan". In the opera, Ko-Ko is the name of the Lord High Executioner of Titipu.
The freshwater and marine species of fish called bass resemble perch. The word "bass" comes from the Middle English "bars" meaning "perch".
46. Savings option, for short : IRA
Individual retirement account (IRA)
47. Big name in games : HOYLE
Edmond Hoyle was a writer, most famous for documenting the rules and play of card games. In particular, Hoyle first wrote a book on the game of whist that was very popular. Such was the success of Hoyle's treatises that we use the phrase "according to Hoyle" to mean "according to some respected authority". When the Poker Hall of Fame was founded in 1979, Edmund Hoyle was one of the first inductees, even though the game of power was invented after he died.
53. *Birdcage feature : PERCH
Perch are carnivorous freshwater fish that are found all over the world. However, perch are particularly common in the Great Lakes and in Lake Erie in particular.
58. Fancy cracker topping : CAVIAR
Caviar is the roe of a large fish that has been salted and seasoned, and especially the roe of a sturgeon. Beluga caviar comes from the beluga sturgeon, found primarily in the Caspian Sea. It is the most expensive type of caviar in the world. 8 ounces of US-farmed beluga caviar can be purchased through Amazon.com for just over $850, in case you're feeling peckish …
64. Yeats's land : EIRE
Irish poet and dramatist William Butler Yeats won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1923 for "inspired poetry" that gave "expression to a whole nation". Yeats was Ireland's first Nobel laureate.
65. Many rural Pennsylvanians : AMISH
The Amish are a group of Christian churches, a subgroup of the Mennonite churches. The Amish church originated in Switzerland and Alsace in 1693 when it was founded by Jakob Ammann. It was Ammann who gave the name to the Amish people. Many Amish people came to Pennsylvania in the 18th century.
66. Site of a famous eviction : EDEN
In the Christian tradition, the "fall of man" took place in the Garden of Eden when Adam and Eve succumbed to the temptation of eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. This went against the bidding of God, and was at the urging of the serpent. As a result, Adam and Eve were banished from Eden to prevent them becoming immortal by eating from the tree of life. The first humans had transitioned from a state of innocent obedience to a state of guilty disobedience.
69. *Shoe part : SOLE
The group of flatfish known as soles take their name from "solea", the Latin word for "sandal". And, they kind of have that shape.
1. Solid orange ball : FIVE
That would the game of pool.
5. Fire starter? : AIM
Aim … fire!
7. Like baby food, often : PUREED
A "purée" is a food that has been made smooth by straining or blending. "Purée" is a French term, which I believe is now used to mean "pea soup" (more completely written as "purée de pois"). The French verb "purer" means "to strain, clean", from the Latin "purare" meaning "to purify, clean".
8. Poet Silverstein : SHEL
Author Shel Silverstein had a varied career and did a lot more than write books. Silverstein was a poet, composer, cartoonist and screenwriter among other things. One of his successful children's books is "The Giving Tree", which was first published in 1964. "The Giving Tree" tells of a young boy who has a special relationship with a tree in a forest. The message of the book seems to be that the tree provides the little boy with everything he needs.
27. Spa wear : ROBE
The word "spa" migrated into English from Belgium, as Spa is the name of a municipality in the east of the country that is famous for its healing hot springs. The name "Spa" comes from the Walloon word "espa" meaning "spring, fountain".
28. Cast aspersions on, in a way : LIBELED
The word "libel", meaning a published or written statement likely to harm a person's reputation, comes into English from the Latin "libellus", the word for a small book. Back in the 1500s "libel" was just a formal written statement, with the more damaging meaning arising in the 1600s.
35. ___ Blaster (toy gun) : NERF
Nerf is soft material used in a whole series of toys designed for "safe" play indoors. The Nerf product is used to make darts, balls and ammunition for toy guns. "NERF" is an acronym, standing for Non-Expanding Recreational Foam.
38. Name on Chinese restaurant menus : TSO
General Tso's chicken is an American creation, often found on the menu of a Chinese restaurant. The name General Tso may be a reference to General Zuo Zongtang of the Qing Dynasty, but there is no clear link.
45. Mex. miss : SRTA
"Señorita" (Srta.) is Spanish and "Mademoiselle" (Mlle.) is French for "Miss".
52. Italian city known for its prosciutto and cheese : PARMA
Parma is a city in northern Italy, famous for its ham (prosciutto) and cheese (parmesan).
54. Words to live by : CREDO
A creed or credo is a confession of faith, or a system of belief or principles. "Credo" is Latin for "I believe".
59. Singer Guthrie : ARLO
Arlo Guthrie is the son of Woody Guthrie. Both father and son are renowned for their singing of protest songs about social injustice. Arlo is most famous for his epic "Alice's Restaurant Massacree", a song that lasts a full 18m 34s. In the song Guthrie tells how, after being drafted, he was rejected for service in the Vietnam War based on his criminal record. He had only one incident on his public record, a Thanksgiving Day arrest for littering and being a public nuisance when he was 18-years-old.
63. Former senator and R.N.C. head Martinez : MEL
Mel Martínez served as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development in the cabinet of President George W. Bush. Martínez resigned from that position in 2003 to mount what proved to be a successful campaign to become US Senator for Florida. When he took his seat in 2005, Martínez became the first Cuban-American to serve in the US Senate.

Pasadena, Calif. • If you were packing for Mars, what would you bring?
NASA's latest tourist, the roving robot named Curiosity, will lug around a suite of gadgets to snap pictures, sniff, taste and even drill. It will study the environment to figure out whether the giant crater where it lands ever possessed a habitable environment for microbial life.
The six-wheel, nuclear-powered rover is far more tech-savvy than anything that has landed before on the red planet. Here's a glimpse of some of the cool things Curiosity can do:

Homes with pools in South Mountain AZ. The projected highs for this weekend are, depending on which weather station you are listening to, 114 degrees to 116 degrees. Summer does not officially begin until the end of June, but it has already been pretty warm here in Phoenix. Granted, by our standards of measuring heat, it has been relatively mild. In the high 80's, low 90's. This is the time of year where I am ever so grateful for our mild winter. And also so grateful and happy that someone invented air conditioning. This is also the time of year where many buyers look for homes with pools. If you have a home in … [Read more...]
Is it a good time to sell my South Mountain AZ home?
Is it a good time to sell my South Mountain AZ home? I should think so, when you have more buyers than sellers, it's a plus for the seller. For the price range of up to about $250,000, there are more buyers than there are homes available. Homes tend to sell quickly if they're priced well and show well. For the price range from $250,000 and up, the average time it takes to get an accepted offer on a home is 98 days. That's still fairly quick here in the communities of South Mountain. The number of single family homes available for sale in all of 85041 and 85042 is 204. Considering that on average 101 … [Read more...]

Southern health boss heading to Nelson post
The South Canterbury District Health Board chief executive is moving to the top of the south.
In February, Chris Fleming will start as chief executive of the Nelson Marlborough District Health Board, replacing John Peters who resigned in July after eight years in the role.
Mr Fleming has been chief executive of the South Canterbury health board since 2007.
"I'm quite pleased with the performance of this DHB and I'm ready for a step up," he said yesterday.
At two to three times the size of the South Canterbury DHB, the Nelson Marlborough DHB included the "complexity" of balancing the needs of different communities across Marlborough, Nelson and Tasman who all needed equal access to services, he said.
"I see it as a challenge."
Mr Fleming, whose background is in accounting, knew he would be tackling the board's $5 million deficit posted in the last financial year, totalling 1.25 per cent of its budget.
He planned to go "back to basics" to determine quality, a sustainable workforce, community support and finances.
"Is it going to be easy to find $5 million? No.
"From afar, it's hard to determine where the organisation is at but it's a priority that I understand where they are."
Originally from Palmerston North, Mr Fleming has worked in the health sector both at strategic and operational level for 20 years in the Waikato, Montreal in Canada, Hawke's Bay, South Auckland, Sydney and Timaru.
He is the chairman of the chief executives' South Island alliance leadership team, the lead chief executive for Health of Older People group nationally, the South Island representative on the national DHB executive, and a director of Health Benefits Ltd.
Nelson Marlborough District Health Board chairwoman Jenny Black said Mr Fleming met "all of our requirements regarding health sector experience and clinical and management leadership".
He would be responsible for 139,000 people across the top of the south, the annual budget of $416m, which had an unplanned $5m deficit in the last financial year, and managing 2370 staff.
Mr Fleming will be joined in Nelson by his wife and son, who will be in year 11 at school. His oldest child will remain in the south to start university.
"I think it's been one of those opportunities where the chance to live in a beautiful part of the country and have a challenging job all came together at the same time," Mr Fleming said.
The Marlborough Express

Read below…this edited entry wasn't even a draft! But it somehow got posted as "blank" while my "saved drafts" of text were completely empty, and then lost after clicking "Publish".
Archive for November, 2006
Ha-ha!Posted: November 29, 2006 in Uncategorized
I'm an idiotPosted: November 29, 2006 in Uncategorized
Yup, spent about an hour writing a blog entry, but screwed up: I wanted to add a picture and didn't have the ActiveX control installed.
So the moment I tried to install the ActiveX control, all my work was lost.
OMG, there were two drafts! YaY! I'm saved!
Both drafts are completely blank! YaY!
Never underestimate the power of clipboard. I wish i hadn't…
Maybe I'll do my update tomorrow. Or maybe I'll send a bitch mail.
Put your money on the bitch mail.
You think you're tough?Posted: November 24, 2006 in Uncategorized
Imagine you're 92 years old. And you're female. And you live in an area known for drug activity and sales. And you live alone. And you have a gun…and you know how to use that gun very, very well.
Now imagine a marked police vehicle on the street curb of your home. Imagine a uniformed officer in your front yard. Then imagine three "hooligans" breaking in thru your front door. Imagine seeing the word "POLICE" emblazoned on their vests.
What do you do?
You try to kill them, that's what. You successfully shoot and wound all three policemen the very moment they enter your home. Then what happens? I'll give you three guesses (and the first two don't count).
Your niece got you the permit for the gun. Then your neice says to the news crews that you were shot down like a dog. Think about this: if you have an opposable thumb, plus a working trigger finger, HOW THE HELL can you be shot down like a dog? No, this tough old bitch was shot down like an experienced, armed drug dealer.
On the bright side, many of her peers don't make it past 22…but that isn't stopping a local Reverend from crying that her civil and human rights have been violated, and that "at best", the police used unnecessary force.
Yup…now somebody is saying that a police officer who shoots back after being shot is using "unnecessary force". Which begs the question, what is "necessary force"? A wedgie? A noogie? Harsh language?
Wha…only ONE percent !?Posted: November 17, 2006 in Uncategorized
The same people who brought you weapons of mass destruction in Iraq claim that only 1% of Internet web sites are sexually explicit. It seems like only 10 years ago when only 1% of the 'net had nothing to do with porn. Ahh, memories. Of course, this shocking revelation also makes this video obsolete.
In other news, I've got a son. As of this posting, he is seven days, two hours and 38 minutes old. I'll post a couple of pics when I wake up enough to use a computer again.
Today's weather: 6″ of snow in HellPosted: November 8, 2006 in Uncategorized
Did the last 24 hours just actually happen? Let's look at the latest news stories and determine if the environmental controls in Hell are on the fritz, shall we?
- After Bush repeatedly argued that generals in the Armed Forces of the United States were all delusional and that Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld was doing a fine job and wasn't going anywhere, the old man quit. My guess: he got tired of the prez referring to him as "Rummy".
- The democrats overwhelmingly took over the House, and are just one state away from taking over rule of the Senate as well.
- Immediately after K-Fed postpones a concert for three hours cuz nobody showed up, his wife filed for divorce…finally.
- MS declared RTM for Vista
In related news, Beelzebub wrote down "scarf" on his Christmas wish list…
Week 9 futbawl predictionsPosted: November 2, 2006 in Uncategorized
I felt darn confident last week, and still blew four predictions. "Any given Sunday" bites me in the ass every week…ah well, trying again…
- Patriots over Colts (Yes, I thought Indy would finally lose last week…however, they are going up against their arch rival this week, and on their home turf…where NE always seems to beat them)
- Ravens over Bengals ("Ocho" might hit Lewis in the mouth, but Cincy has been unpredictable with their offense for weeks now…Baltimore's D will just be too much)
- Cowboys over Redskins (Washington just doesn't have it this year, and T.O. is crowing about his current love-fest with Romo)
- Bucs over Saints (My upset pick of the week)
- Chiefs over Rams (KC is gonna fix the stuff that almost cost them the game against Seattle…even the groin-pull couldn't stop Huard)
- Giants over Texans (Carr is one of the top 3 rated QBs, but the rest of the team is no match for NY on their home turf)
- Jaguars over Titans (Pacman spits and sits. What a dolt.)
- Falcons over Lions (Cushy game for Vick & Co.)
- Bears over Dolphins (All the experts are trying to distance themselves about picking Miami for the Superbowl before the season began…and today it's obvious their season ended before October ended. Personally, I didn't even consider them contenders, regardless of the way last season ended)
- Packers over Bills (GB has picked it up lately, looking good…Buffalo is one of this season's "whipping boys")
- Vikings over 49ers (Like what happened to Arizona, da Bears sucked whatever life that SF had left)

Learn more about Microorganism
A microorganism or microbe is an organism that is microscopic (too small to be visible to the naked eye). The study of microorganisms is called microbiology. Microorganisms can be bacteria, fungi, archaea or eukaryotes, but not viruses because they are generally classified as non-living. Micro-organisms are often described as single-celled, or unicellular organisms; however, some unicellular protists are visible to the naked eye, and some multicellular species are microscopic.
Microorganisms live almost everywhere on earth where there is liquid water, including hot springs on the ocean floor and deep inside rocks within the earth's crust. Microorganisms are critical to nutrient recycling in ecosystems as they act as decomposers. As some microorganisms can also fix nitrogen, they are an important part of the nitrogen cycle. However, pathogenic microbes can invade other organisms and therefore cause disease.
[edit] History
[edit] Evolution
Single-celled microorganisms were the first forms of life to develop on earth, approximately 4 billion years ago and for about 3 billion years, all organisms were microscopic.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> Therefore, for the majority of the history of life on earth the only form of life were microorganisms.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>
Most microorganisms reproduce rapidly and in great number. Microbes such as bacteria can also freely exchange genes by conjugation, transformation and transduction between widely-divergent species.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> This horizontal gene transfer, coupled with a high mutation rate and many other means of genetic variation, allows microorganisms to swiftly evolve (via natural selection) to survive in new environments and respond to environmental stresses. This rapid evolution has led to the recent development of 'super-bugs' - pathogenic bacteria that are resistant to modern antibiotics.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>microorganism organism can be found all over this planet only in water.
[edit] Discovery
Prior to Anton van Leeuwenhoek's discovery of microorganisms in 1676, it had been a mystery as to why grapes could be turned into wine, milk into cheese, or why food would spoil. Leeuwenhoek did not make the connection between these processes and microorganisms, but he did establish that there were forms of life that were not visible to the naked eye.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> Leeuwenhoek's discovery, along with subsequent observations by Lazzaro Spallanzani and Louis Pasteur, ended the long-held belief that life spontaneously appeared from non-living substances during the process of spoilage.
Lazzarro Spallanzani found that microorganisms could only settle in a broth if the broth was exposed to the air. He also found that boiling the broth would sterilise it and kill the microorganisms.
Louis Pasteur expanded upon Spallanzani's findings by exposing boiled broths to the air, in vessels that contained a filter to prevent all particles from passing through to the growth medium, and also in vessels with no filter at all, with air being admitted via a curved tube that would not allow dust particles to come in contact with the broth. By boiling the broth beforehand, Pasteur ensured that no microorganisms survived within the broths at the beginning of his experiment. Nothing grew in the broths in the course of Pasteur's experiment. This meant that the living organisms that grew in such broths came from outside, as spores on dust, rather than spontaneously generated within the broth. Thus, Pasteur dealt the death blow to the theory of spontaneous generation and supported germ theory.
In 1876, Robert Koch established that microbes can cause disease. He did this by finding that the blood of cattle who were infected with anthrax always had large numbers of Bacillus anthracis. Koch also found that he could transmit anthrax from one animal to another by taking a small sample of blood from the infected animal and injecting it into a healthy one, causing the healthy animal to become sick. He also found that he could grow the bacteria in a nutrient broth, inject it into a healthy animal, and cause illness. Based upon these experiments, he devised criteria for establishing a causal link between a microbe and a disease in what are now known as Koch's postulates. Though these postulates are no longer entirely accurate, they do retain historical importance in the development of scientific thought.
[edit] Classification
Microorganisms can be found almost anywhere in the taxonomic organization of life on the planet. Bacteria and archaea are almost always microscopic, whilst a number of eukaryotes are also microscopic, including most protists and a number of fungi. Viruses are generally regarded as not living and therefore are not microbes, although the field of microbiology also encompasses the study of viruses.
[edit] Bacteria
Bacteria are the simplest and the most diverse and widespread group of organisms on Earth. Bacteria inhabit practically all environments where some liquid water is available and the temperature is below +140 °C. They are found in sea water, soil, human gut, hot springs and in food. Practically all surfaces which have not been specially sterilised are covered in bacteria. The number of bacteria in the world is estimated to be around five million trillion trillion , or 5 × 1030.<ref>University of Georgia Campus News</ref>
Bacteria are practically all invisible to the naked eye, with few extremely rare exceptions, such as Thiomargarita namibiensis.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> They are unicellular organisms and lack organelles. Their genome is a single string of DNA, although they can also harbour small pieces of DNA called plasmids. Bacteria are surrounded by a cell wall. They reproduce by binary fission. Some species form spores, but for bacteria this is a mechanism for survival, not reproduction. under optimal conditions bacteria can grow extremely rapidly and can double as quickly as every 10 minutes.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>
[edit] Archaea
Archaea are single-celled organisms lacking nuclei and are therefore prokaryotes, classified as Monera in the alternative five-kingdom taxonomy. They were originally described in extreme environments, but have since been found in all types of habitats.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>
A single organism from this domain has been called an "archaean." Furthermore, this biologic term is also used as an adjective.
[edit] Eukaryotes
All living things which are individually visible to the naked eye are eukaryotes (with few exceptions, such as Thiomargarita namibiensis), including humans. However, a large number of eukaryotes are also microorganisms. Eukaryotes are characterised by the presence of organelles such as in the cells. These structures are absent in bacteria and archaea. The nucleus is an organelle which houses the DNA. DNA itself is arranged in complex chromosomes.<ref>"Eukaryota: More on Morphology." [1] (Accessed 10 October 2006)</ref> mitochondria are organelles that are vital in metabolism as they are the site of cellular respiration. mitochondria evolved from symbiotic bacteria and retain a remnant genome.<ref name=Dyall>Template:Cite journal</ref> Plant cells also have cell walls and chloroplasts in addition to other organelles. Chloroplasts produce energy from light by photosynthesis. They were also originally symbiotic bacteria.<ref name=Dyall/>
Unicellular eukaryotes are those whose members consist of a single cell throughout their life cycle. This qualification is significant since most multicellular eukaryotes consist of a single cell at the beginning of their life cycles. Microbial eukaryotes can be either haploid or diploid, and some organisms have multiple cell nuclei (see coenocyte). However, not all microorganisms are unicellular. Microbial eukaryotes can have multiple cells.
Of the eukaryotic groups the protists are always unicellular, and thus microorganisms. This is a diverse group of organisms which do not fit into other groups of eukaryotes. Several algae species are unicellular plants. The fungi also have several unicellular species, such as baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). Animals are always multicellular, although they may not be visible to the naked eye.
[edit] Habitats and ecology
Microorganisms are found in virtually every habitat present in nature. Even in hostile environments such as the poles, deserts, geysers, rocks, and the deep sea, some types of microorganisms have adapted to the extreme conditions and sustained colonies; these organisms are known as extremophiles. Extremophiles have been isolated from rocks as much as 7 kilometres below the earth's surface,<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> and it has been suggested that the amount of living organisms below the earth's surface may be comparable with the amount of life on or above the surface.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> Extremophiles have been known to survive for a prolonged time in a vacuum, and can be highly resistant to radiation, which may even allow them to survive in space.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> Many types of microorganisms have intimate symbiotic relationships with other larger organisms; some of which are mutually beneficial (mutualism), while others can be damaging to the host organism (parasitism). If microorganisms can cause disease in a host they are known as pathogens.
[edit] Extremophiles
Certain microbes have adapted so that they can survive and even thrive in conditions that are normally fatal to most lifeforms. Microorganisms have been found around underwater black smokers and in geothermal hot springs, as well as in extremely salty bodies of water.
[edit] Soil microbes
The nitrogen cycle in soils depends on the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen. One way this can occur is in the nodules in the roots of legumes that contain symbiotic bacteria of the genera Rhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Sinorhizobium, Bradyrhizobium, and Azorhizobium.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>
[edit] Symbiotic microbes
Symbiotic microbes
[edit] Importance
Microorganisms are vital to humans and the environment, as they participate in the Earth's element cycles such as the carbon cycle and nitrogen cycle, as well as fulfilling other vital roles in virtually all ecosystems, such as recycling other organisms' dead remains and waste products through decomposition. Microbes also have an important place in most higher-order multicellular organisms as symbionts. Many blame the failure of Biosphere 2 on an improper balance of microbes.
[edit] Use in food
Microorganisms are used in brewing, baking and other food-making processes.
The lactobacilli and yeasts in sourdough bread are especially useful. To make bread, one uses a small amount (20-25%) of "starter" dough which has the yeast culture, and mixes it with flour and water. Some of this resulting dough is then saved to be used as the starter for subsequent batches. The culture can be kept at room temperature and continue yielding bread for years as long as it remains supplied with new flour and water. This technique was often used when "on the trail" in the American Old West.
Microorganisms are also used to control the fermentation process in the production of cultured dairy products such as yogurt and cheese. The cultures also provide flavour and aroma, and to inhibit undesirable organisms.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
[edit] Use in science
Microbes are also essential tools in biotechnology and the study of biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology.
[edit] Use in warfare
[edit] Microorganisms and human health
[edit] Microbes in human digestion
Microorganisms can form an endosymbiotic relationship with other, larger, organisms. For example, the bacteria that live within the human digestive system contribute to gut immunity, synthesise vitamins such as folic acid and biotin, and ferment complex undigestable carbohydrates.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>
[edit] Diseases and immunology
Microorganisms are the cause of many infectious diseases. The organisms involved include bacteria, causing diseases such as plague, tuberculosis and anthrax: protozoa, causing diseases such as malaria, sleeping sickness and toxoplasmosis; and also fungi causing diseases such as ringworm, candidiasis or histoplasmosis. However, other diseases such as influenza, yellow fever or AIDS are caused by viruses, which are not living organisms and are not therefore microorganisms.
[edit] Hygiene
Hygiene is the avoidance of infection or food spoiling by eliminating microorganisms from the surroundings. As microorganisms, particularly bacteria, are found practically everywhere, this means in most cases the reduction of harmful microorganisms to acceptable levels. However, in some cases it is required that an object or substance is completely sterile, i.e. devoid of all living entities and viruses. A good example of this is a hypodermic needle.
In food preparation microorganisms are reduced by preservation methods (such as the addition of vinegar), clean utensils used in preparation, short storage periods or by cool temperatures. If complete sterility is needed, the two most common methods are irradiation and the use of an autoclave, which resembles a pressure cooker.
There are several methods for investigating the level of hygiene in a sample of food, drinking water, equipment etc. Water samples can be filtrated through an extremely fine filter. This filter is then placed in a nutrient medium. Microorganisms on the filter then grow to form a visible colony. Harmful microorganisms can be detected in food by placing a sample in a nutrient broth designed to enrich the organisms in question. Various methods, such as selective media or PCR, can then be used for detection. The hygiene of hard surfaces, such as cooking pots, can be tested by touching them with a solid piece of nutrient medium and then allowing the microorganisms to grow on it.
There are no conditions where all microorganisms would grow, and therefore often several different methods are needed. For example, a food sample might be analysed on three different nutrient mediums designed to indicate the presence of "total" bacteria (conditions where many, but not all, bacteria grow), molds (conditions where the growth of bacteria is prevented by e.g. antibiotics) and coliform bacteria (these indicate a sewage contamination).
[edit] Microorganisms in fiction
Microorganisms have frequently played an important part in science fiction, both as agents of disease, and as entities in their own right.
Some notable uses of microorganisms in fiction include:
- The War of the Worlds, where microorganisms play important thematic and plot-related roles.
- Fantastic Voyage, in which some scientists are miniaturised to microscopic size and observe micro-organisms from a new perspective
- Blood Music, in which a colony of microorganisms is given intelligence
- The Andromeda Strain, in which extraterrestrial microorganisms kill several people

Rated 5 out of 5 by Ritzy from Very happy I found this beautiful mirror. At age 62, I recently had cataract surgeries with intraocular implants. All of my life my eyesight had been extremely bad...so these surgeries were life-altering in so very many ways. Without my glasses or contact lenses I had always been able to use a regular mirror very close to my eyes to see the smallest detail on my face. Since having these procedures that is no longer an option, because my vision is so greatly improved. I was uncertain what type of mirror would be best for me now...with my "new" eyes...so I did many, many searches before finding this one. Glad I was patient and took the time.
