Channel Nine, 8.30pm
In another half-good episode of this locally spun action-drama series, Lara (Gigi Edgley) attends a night-time accident and sympathises with a married victim whose trauma deepens her own doubts about getting hitched. Unfortunately, this tightly told tale shares screen time with a rather silly B-story involving - get this - paintball.
It would have ruined everything were it not for Edgley's convincing, hard-centred performance.

As more and more people opt to construct and build their own homes, compared to buying readily from real estate agents, the services of interior designers are becoming much sought after. People know the styles and tastes they wish to achieve, and are thus consulting professional interior designer companies for consultations or interior decorations. As the owner of an interior designer company, there are basic things you should do in order to position yourself properly in the market.
They include these 10 tips;
- Qualified; as an interior designer company, be sure to invest in highly qualified interior designers. Passion is never enough; look for people who are trained, certified, and licensed to offer interior design services.
- Reputation; your reputation matters a lot. If you can't complete a requested task, always decline politely, or ensure that the client clearly understands you.
- Keep yourself updated; interior design trends and style keep evolving; keep yourself abreast with these developments.
- Robust website; invest in a very robust website that has catchy and captivating photos and images. Interior design is all about the visual senses, and if your website doesn't entice such, you're doomed.
- Social media; some of the most successful interior designer companies today have a solid online presence. It helps meet new clients, and mingle with existing ones.
- Be creative; as an interior designer company, your services must stand out from the rest. Be creative, and always work with the 7 principles of interior design.
- Technology; in this day and age where interior design proposals and quotations are being done with 3D technology, you can't afford to ignore the role of technology.
- Courtesy; always treat your clients with courtesy and respect.
- Watch competitors; always sneak into your competitor's websites and social media pages, to see whether there's something they're doing, which you aren't.
- Customer feedback; successful companies take time to listen and respond to their client's feedback. Be open minded to their suggestions and opinions.

(Reuters) - Walt Disney Co shareholders are expected to vote at its March 18 annual meeting on a resolution that asks the company to allow large shareholders to nominate board members, the latest bid by investor groups to win "proxy access" rights.
The Connecticut Retirement Plans and Trust Funds and the California State Teachers Retirement System proposed that the board allow owners of at least 3 percent of the company's stock be empowered to nominate up to 20 percent of the board, according to a regulatory filing from Disney on January 24. Under the non-binding proxy access proposal, shareholders must own their stake for three years before they have nomination rights.
The company's shareholders rejected a similar proposal last year, with 40 percent voting in support.
"Disney is a bellwether company and the vote will get a lot of attention," said Robert McCormick, chief policy officer of proxy advisory firm Glass Lewis, which has advised its clients to vote for the measure.
This year, shareholders at as many as 20 companies will consider proxy access proposals, said Patrick McGurn, special counsel to proxy advisory firm ISS that has advised Disney shareholders to approve the measure. Of three shareholder votes so far this year, the non-binding proposal was adopted at slot machine maker International Game Technology and rejected at Apple Inc and Walgreen Co.
On February 28, Apple shareholders soundly defeated such a measure, with only 4 percent of those casting votes in support of a non-binding resolution that would allow investors holding between 1 percent and 5 percent to nominate up to 24 percent of the board.
Last year, 12 companies had the measure on their ballots, according to ISS, with shareholders at Verizon and CenturyLink approving proxy access. Among those who voted it down with Disney shareholders in 2013 were those at Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Staples and Netflix Inc.
Proponents of the measure for the upcoming Disney meeting say the access to the nomination process would "more easily promote independent director candidates to enhance accountability to shareholders," according to the regulatory filing from Disney. They cite the decision by Disney's board to elevate Chief Executive Bob Iger in 2012 to the chairmanship as well as one reason the provision is needed.
European institutional investor Legal & General Investment Management also supports the proposal.
Disney's board, which recommended shareholders vote against the proxy access proposal, said the company has in place "a well-defined process of shareholders to nominate directors" and bring to attention potential candidates to the nominating committee.
In the last year, former Starbucks Chief Executive Orin Smith, Disney's independent lead director, has met with many of the company's largest shareholders, the board said in the filing.

Have an opinion?
i really would't give a shit. its not like she's proposing to me
I've been asked out, I mean I would have done it if she hadn't. But the attraction was mutual, so I don't think either of us really cared who asked out who.
I think it's great, and I really admire a girl for doing that.
I answered "Thrilled" but that presupposes that she is someone I would want to date. If she's not my type or not attractive to me I'd have to tell her nicely that I'm not interested. It blows my mind that over 40 years after the "sexual revolution" females still expect males to do the approaching.
Lol I didn't know if I should add that it was a girl you would want to go out with, but that's what I meant. There hasn't really been an overt "revolution" here, but, if anything, there has been a sort of counter-revolution among young people. It's just usually not done, but I wondered if guys would actually be upset or if it's just a self-respect thing for girls.
I'd be thrilled
I'm never sure. I've had times when I ended up getting seduced and blown and everything and I've had times when we just went out somewhere. I was never sure which way it was going to go.
Never happened
It happens often and is flattering. I don't mind it at all and not sure why any guy would. In fact many guys are angry at women for them not being forward but it doesn't matter to me either way.
The only opinion from girls was selected the Most Helpful Opinion, but you can still contribute by sharing an opinion!

Helping migrants key to plan's success
Rural migrant workers will be given the option of joining the basic medical insurance scheme for urban residents under a new action plan for health care reform for the coming three years.
Reducing the huge gap in the medical services and insurance coverage enjoyed by urban and rural dwellers is one of the key tasks pinpointed by the latest round of health care reform.
The government is working to expand insurance schemes to cover the vast numbers of rural migrants working in cities, which scholars estimate at more than 100 million.
Most rural dwellers are entitled to join the rural medical insurance cooperatives, but these schemes have been criticised for the low level of compensation to policyholders. Outpatient services are not covered by the rural schemes, and many rural migrants find it hard to claim the medical expenses from the rural schemes in their hometowns if they fall sick in cities.
Analysts said the new measures meant well but would not achieve much if no concrete reinforcement measures were in place.
'If I were a migrant worker I would want to join the medical insurance for urban residents because the coverage of the rural schemes back home is too low,' said Gu Xin, a health care reform expert from Peking University who was once consulted on the reform draft.
'But achieving the goal [to cover rural migrants with the urban insurance scheme] involves tackling a lot of difficulties.'
Dr Gu said city governments would be reluctant to spend more to provide the same benefits to rural migrants as to their urban counterparts.
'Where does the extra money come from? I don't think local governments are willing to do that.'
The new measure to allow rural migrants to claim medical expenses for services outside their hometowns was also impractical, Dr Gu said.
Rural migrants tend to move to different cities to work and each of these cities has its own premiums and compensation standards, and settling the bills across cities would be a daunting task.
Meanwhile, the action plan pledges to increase the level of compensation payments to at least six times the average annual income of where a rural resident comes from.
In order to encourage local governments to raise compensation levels for the rural medical co-operative schemes, the action plan restricts the amount of money a local government can keep from the premiums it collects.
Some provinces keep up to one-third of premiums collected in reserve for future use instead of reimbursing farmers for their medical bills.
'The co-operative fund surplus should be controlled within 15 per cent a year in principle and the accumulated surplus should be no more than 25 per cent of the funding that year,' the document says.
A medical insurance expert at Zhejiang University said the reforms were moving in the right direction by encouraging governments to pay policyholders more. But he said more flexibility should be given to local governments instead of imposing a 15 per cent cap on the annual surplus.
Medical services in rural areas, however, are expected to greatly benefit from stipulations that doctors from city hospitals and disease prevention and control centres must spend one year in rural areas before being promoted.
The action plan also pledges to subsidise the university fees for doctors who agree to work in rural clinics for at least three years.
The action plan says the government will build 2,000 county hospitals in three years and finish building 29,000 township clinics this year. It will also upgrade another 5,000 township clinics.
It also set a target to build at least a simple clinic in each village in three years.
The government will offer 1.9 million training sessions for village and township medical clinics and urban community medical institutions over the next three years to improve their quality.

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST: 'Democrats Are Good For Gun Sales': Guess What Happened After Trump's Election By Uri Berliner • Mar 31, 2017 Donald Trump won the backing of the National Rifle Association and many gun owners by opposing limits to the Second Amendment's right to bear arms. But since his election and in the early months of his presidency, Trump has not been good for the gun business. Shares of publicly traded firearms companies have fallen. The pro-gun president nicking the fortunes of the industry he vowed to protect may seem illogical on its face. A Carbon Tax Gains Traction Among Some Conservatives By Uri Berliner • Feb 28, 2017 Beyond tax proposals from the Trump administration and the House GOP leadership, there's a long-shot idea that's received recent attention — a carbon tax.

That is, before it was undone by fraud and ghoulish portrayals in popular culture. Would You Let A Robot Manage Your Retirement Savings? By Uri Berliner • Oct 20, 2015 Comfortable with technology and skeptical of Wall Street, a growing number of young investors have turned to low-fee automated financial advisers for help saving for retirement. They're called roboadvisers — or robos — and they appeal to Jesus Adrian Perez, 29, a biometric analyst from Albuquerque, N.M., because he knows what's at stake when lots of charges are tacked on to investments. "I hear about investment advisers — that their fees are always really high, and you end up losing a lot of money in the long run," Perez says. Nuclear Deal Opens Up Potential For Investors In Iran's Stock Market By Uri Berliner • Jul 17, 2015 Iran may not be fond of Western-style capitalism, but it has a stock market where shares in Iranian companies are traded.

What happens on its ever-present SportsCenter, airing live 18 times daily, resonates with sports fans around the country. So it matters that over the past couple of years, ESPN has increased coverage of what's always been an extremely sensitive topic for leagues and TV networks — sports betting. ESPN says it wants to be more direct about a topic broadcasters have dealt with circuitously, often with a wink and nod, rather than in the direct language of gambling. Canada Cuts Down On Red Tape.

Its future may depend a lot on going small. It's investing in smaller stores in densely populated urban neighborhoods, where customers buy fewer items at a time. Customers like Donna Thomas, who walked over to a Wal-Mart near Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., on her lunch break from her job as an executive assistant at Comcast. Even Pickaxes Couldn't Stop The Nation's First Oil Pipeline By Uri Berliner • Feb 24, 2015 One-hundred-fifty years ago, a man named Samuel Van Syckel built the nation's first commercial oil pipeline in the rugged terrain of northwestern Pennsylvania. His pipeline transformed how oil is transported — and it would change the modern world, too — but not before a battle that makes the debate over the Keystone XL pipeline look meek by comparison. For Long-Haul Drivers, Cheap Gas Means A Sweeter Commute By Uri Berliner • Jan 29, 2015 With wages still stuck for many Americans, the big drop in gasoline prices is the equivalent of an unexpected cash bonus for the nation's drivers. The average American household is expected to save $750 this year from lower gas prices, according to the Energy Department. But Thomas Kinnaman, an economist at Bucknell University in Lewisburg, Pa., says it's instructive to look beyond the word "average." Here's Why Retailers Keep Sending You Catalogs By Uri Berliner • Dec 11, 2014 Many things made with paper have become relics because of computers and the Internet: the Rolodex, multivolume encyclopedias, even physical maps. Now take a look in your mailbox or somewhere around your house. There's a good chance you'll see a shopping catalog, maybe a few of them now that it's the holiday season. "I ignore them," says Rick Narad, a professor at California State University, Chico. "I get them in the mail sometimes, and they don't make it into the house. I walk past the recycling bin, and they go right in." In South Carolina, A Program That Makes Apprenticeships Work By Uri Berliner • Nov 6, 2014 Several years ago, South Carolina had a problem: a shortage of skilled workers and no good way to train young people for the workforce. So at a time when apprenticeship programs were in decline in the U.S., the state started a program called Apprenticeship Carolina. "We were really, really squarely well-positioned at the bottom," says Brad Neese, the program's director. Will The NFL's Domestic Violence Scandal Hurt Its Bottom Line?

In a twist on the familiar March Madness bracket, a mortgage company and a world-famous investor are offering a billion dollars to anyone who picks the winner of all 63 games in the NCAA college basketball tournament. It's a contest, and it may also be the perfect publicity stunt. Let's introduce the players. There's Quicken Loans, the mortgage company that's sponsoring the contest. And there's investor Warren Buffett — he's the insurance man here, willing to pay out the $1 billion if someone wins. Tired Of Doom And Gloom?

Frequently Asked Questions about Denial
Why do some people deny the Holocaust ever happened? What do they hope to accomplish?
Individual Holocaust deniers may have different motivations. Some use Holocaust denial to make money, touring around the world lecturing to neo-Nazis and other hate groups. Others are motivated by a desire to tear down the State of Israel, which they believe was only founded as a reaction to the Holocaust. Still others seek to rehabilitate Hitler and Nazism to redeem the honor of the "Aryan race" or to make fascism and other radical political movements more palatable. But all Holocaust deniers share a conspiratorial mindset and a willingness to believe in and promote hateful stereotypes of Jews as greedy, deceitful, remorseless plotters, who framed Germany for the crime of genocide.
In what parts of the world does Holocaust denial occur?
Holocaust denial takes place in every part of the world. It is currently growing fastest in the Middle East, where unscrupulous regimes have promoted it as a weapon in their war against Israel, and in the former Soviet Union, where antisemitism is widespread.
Is Holocaust denial against the law?
After World War II, several European nations passed laws prohibiting efforts by surviving Nazis and neo-Nazis to deny the crimes of the Nazi regime, and Holocaust denial is included in this legislation. Other countries have more recently passed laws specifically targeting Holocaust denial, usually treating it as a form of racial incitement against Jews. Currently Holocaust denial is prohibited in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Switzerland, and Israel. Canada and the United Kingdom do not have laws against Holocaust denial but do have broader laws against inciting hate. In the United States, the First Amendment guarantees the right of free speech, regardless of political content.
Have there been any court cases involving Holocaust denial?
In Canada and Western Europe, Holocaust deniers have been successfully prosecuted under racial defamation or hate crimes laws. Probably the most famous legal case involved Holocaust denier David Irving. After Emory University Holocaust scholar Deborah Lipstadt made reference to Irving's historical misrepresentation about the Holocaust in her book, Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory (Free Press, 1993), Irving sued her and her British publisher, Penguin Books UK, for libel. During a ten-week trial in London, Lipstadt was able to expose Irving as having deliberately manipulated historical evidence in order to refute that the Holocaust happened, and to advance his antisemitic and white supremacist ideology.
What argument can I make when someone denies that the Holocaust actually happened?
Questioning whether the Holocaust happened is irrational; it is one of the most documented events in human history. One need only look at the fact that following World War II there were around six million fewer Jews, including 1.5 million children, in Eastern Europe. In addition, the Germans themselves left massive documentation, which has been supplemented by films and photographs, even aerial surveillance of the extermination camps by allied forces. As recently as 2006, Germany opened up a huge archive of Nazi records detailing information about more than seventeen million people who went through the concentration camp and slave labor system.
Survivors have written memoirs and documented their experiences. USC Shoah Foundation – The Institute for Visual History and Education, for example, conducted nearly 52,000 interviews in 32 languages and 56 countries of survivors and other witnesses of the Holocaust. Many survivors agreed to tell about their experiences during the Holocaust as a direct result of growing Holocaust denial.
Equally important is the fact that the Germans themselves never denied their crime and court cases on five continents—beginning with the Nuremberg Trials convened by the Allies shortly after the end of World War II—established a judicial record of the Holocaust.

La Garde des "Seaux"
It's also rather quaint to have to clear that time in the sun with the PM, who's in a bit of hot water himself over accepting handouts from dictators. And the president himself vacationed in Marrakech at the expense of the Moroccans. Does he need to ask for an exit pass as well?
Still, it might do France's elite good to stay home and see a little more of the provinces. You can have a lot of fun in France. Just ask any number of members of the Bush administration, who bashed France in public but vacationed there on the QT.
Pardon my pun, but I guess we can now call the prime minister la garde des seaux (et des pelles): "Boys and girls, before you can go the beach and play in the sand with your pails and shovels, check with François."

If it's left up to the PM to sanction whether a proposed visit is suitable, it would seem this particular Fillion is not able of judging this for himself. but even if all ministers were to stay in france from now on, it's who they are cozying up to and under what circumstances that's at issue. This has nothing at all to do with where that happens.
- February 9, 2011 at 11:44 AM
- Mark said...
Also this law, rather than sanctioning any wrongdoing,a suggests that in these instances there was no impropriety, just the appearance of it. That in itself is more evidence (as if it were needed) of a refusal to acknowledge real impropriety: there is no problem, just a problem of perception. This is the kind of dishonesty that drives any sentient member of the public understandably up the wall.

Long before Sarko ever saw the light of day, le train de vie
of French Presidents, ministers, and assorted high level fonctionaires was legendary. One long history of excess, both on the Right and the Left. Unimagineable for the average citizen, luxury, & indiscriminate wasting of time and public funds on lavish meals, expensive wine and white gloved flunkies
in powder blue satin knee britches a la Giscard and Mitterrand.
Before the Internet Age, when such things were known only to a few, this was pretty much sub rosa. Now with the availability of insight into this life available to anyone with a keyboard, it is all out in the open.
My last Christmas in Paris, my French relatives offered me a gift of a magnificent, very expensive & lavishly illustrated book, "Les Palais de la Nation" which I greatly appreciate and cherish. it shows the various Ministries, exteriors, interiors, furnishings, and gardens, and their history. They were particularly proud because one of the Ministries depicted had been, in a long ago era, our common ancestor's Paris residence.
My thought was that if the French people ever saw this, there would be another Revolution, and more heads would roll.

We still have a long way to go before France gets to Sweden's level of accountability of public servants & elected officials...
Can you imagine a French official resigning/getting fired over using their work cellphone to make private calls?
- February 10, 2011 at 11:23 AM
The real garde des sceux is in charge of justice, and here are Sarko's arguments to deal with the justice crisis, as handed out to all UMP guys:
Tonight, he's meeting with a "select" group of French people, whom he asked to be less restive than the previous ones (like the milk producer who's invited everywhere because so many of her peers had committed suicide, so Sarkozy had promised he'd come visit and do something, except... of course, it was an empty promise. Like the union guy who had him swear on tv that he wouldn't allow Renauld to outsource car production from Flins since they'd received their bailout package.)
Wondering if anyone will be left to ask a tough questin, about the justice system for example.
- February 10, 2011 at 11:34 AM
You are anti Sarko; we all get it. But why dont you wait until AFTER the event before posting your prejudgements?You have no idea what the participants wlll say or how thr President will respond.
And to the poster naively wishing that the French government were more like Sweden:
Yes, imagine a country where the wife of the head honcho is the daughter of a top Nazi official & funded of the Hitler regime.
and the head honcho himself has been involved in the most lurid lifestyle of sex with minors and drug scandals.

Art, if you can find it, have a look at the same running gag in an old political BD, you will find all the possible variations for your pun.
30 years later, a fascinating windows over the partisan politic at the time.
- February 10, 2011 at 5:47 PM
@Cincinna: I don't know the life story of the king's wife, but last time I checked being the daughter of someone wasn't a crime.
As for the king himself, head of the state (but technically not part of the government), if he did anything illegal then he should be put on trial.
In Sweden journalists can have access to expense claims from officials (including at local level) and regularly report on suspicious spendings. I find this more healthy than the quasi absolute opacity in France.

Testosterone is arguably the most important hormone in a man's life. The health benefits of this magical hormone include maintaining muscle mass, bone density, libido, and the general health of the body. Not only that, but it also helps in improving our mood, sleep, and energy level in our everyday life.
The production of testosterone is at its highest in the body when a man first comes to the age of maturity. But, unfortunately, as the time passes, its level starts decreasing, leading to different health problems including risks to diabetes and heart disease. It also damages the sexual function of the body. Don't worry; this is a natural phenomenon, and there are a few simple tips that can help you overcome these problems:
1. Never compromise your sleep: Research has proved that getting a quality sleep is the most important factor in maintaining your testosterone level. So, never forget to get a good night's sleep of seven to nine hours every night. Here is a video to help you get the best night's sleep you ever had.
2. Get more vitamin D and Zinc in your food: Both vitamin D and Zinc are proved to be the most dietary factors when it comes to maintaining testosterone in the body. So, adding an adequate amount of these nutrients in your food will have exceptional effects on your testosterone level. The easiest way to get these nutrients is to increase the consumption of nuts, beans, and whole grains.
3. Reduce sugars in diet: According to scientists, high blood glucose level hurts the testosterone level in the body. So you may want to keep in check your sugar habit if you want to maintain your testosterone.
4. Get more high-quality fats: Fat is a natural testosterone booster: Regularly eating good quality fats can significantly increase the testosterone in the body. So don't hesitate eating red meat, chocolates, and eggs. You should also consider adding nuts and oils in your diet to get more healthy fats.
5. Stop getting stressed: Stress is not good, neither for your body, not for your brain. When you are in stress all the time, the stress hormone (cortisol) is released that affects all you physical and mental functions very severely, including the mechanism involved in the production of testosterone. So, if you want to live a long happy life, this may be a good time to stop getting stressed.
6. Go for Intermittent Fasting: Intermittent fasting means skipping your meals periodically. It is proved to be another natural testosterone booster. It allows your organs to rest and work better on bodily functions other than digestion.
7. Do shorter workouts with breaks: Working out for longer periods leads to stress, resulting in the release of cortisol. Research has proved that taking short resting intervals between exercise sessions produces excellent health results, including optimum hormone production. So: DO workout, but with short breaks.
8. Avoid unnecessary medication: Liver enzymes play a significant role in the manufacturing of testosterone in the body. Excessive and unnecessary medication, along with its other adverse effects, can hinder the testosterone output by damaging the liver function. So, only use recommended and necessary medication if you are worried about your low testosterone production.

--OF Ryan Spilborghs started in center field Wednesday for the first time this season, as CF Dexter Fowler got a planned day off. Manager Jim Tracy's move paid off when Spilborghs hit his first homer of the season, a solo shot in the sixth inning that gave the Rockies a 5-3 lead over the Mets in a game Colorado won 5-4. Spilborghs had gone 3-for-16 in nine previous games but had batted more than once in just his two other starts. Spilborghs is a capable outfielder but not in the class of Carlos Gonzalez. However, Tracy said in spring training he would mostly use Gonzalez in left field, even though Gonzalez can play all three outfield positions very well.
--1B Todd Helton (lower back stiffness) returned to lineup for the first time since April 7 at Pittsburgh and went 2-for-4 with a double and a run-scoring single. In the previous four games, he made two pinch-hitting appearances and twice didn't play.
--RHP Ubaldo Jimenez (right thumb cuticle) is expected to be activated Monday and start against the Giants at Coors Field after pitching in a game in extended spring training Wednesday. Facing a team of A's minor-leaguers, Jimenez threw 81 pitches in five innings while allowing seven hits and two runs with two walks and three strikeouts. He hit 97 mph twice with his fastball and averaged 94 mph.
--RHP Alan Johnson did not make his start as scheduled Wednesday for Class AAA Colorado Springs, raising the possibility that Johnson, who is not on the 40-man roster, might make his major league debut and start Sunday for the Rockies against the Cubs. Tuesday's postponed game in New York moved RHP Esmil Rogers' start back to Wednesday, creating the need for the Rockies to find a starter from outside their regular rotation for Sunday. In his lone start this season, Johnson, 27, a non-drafted player who signed with the Rockies out of Mississippi State in 2005, allowed two hits and two unearned runs in five innings April 8. He threw 42 of 68 pitches for strikes.
--C Chris Iannetta went 0-for-1 with three walks. Iannetta is hitless in his past 16 at-bats -- his last hit was a single April 6 against the Dodgers -- and he is batting .192 (5-for-26). But Iannetta has drawn 12 walks, which is particularly notable as the No. 8 hitter, and he has a .447 on-base percentage.
--RHP Greg Reynolds could be making his second and last start for a while in the first game of a doubleheader Thursday at New York, as injured RHP Ubaldo Jimenez is expected to return to the rotation Monday. If so, Reynolds will hope to pitch as well as he did Saturday at Pittsburgh and keep his name in the discussion should the Rockies need another starter at some point in the season. At Pittsburgh, Reynolds allowed three hits and two runs in six innings. He got a no-decision in the Rockies' 6-4 victory.
--Not only did RF Seth Smith hit a career-low .246 last year, but the left-handed hitter went 8-for-52 (.154) against left-handed pitchers. Working with hitting coach Carney Lansford, Smith has gone back to his compact swing -- it got long as he tried to hit home runs last year, thinking that would keep him in the lineup -- and he has responded well to Lansford's fundamental belief about the importance of using the entire field.
Smith was in the lineup batting leadoff Wednesday against Mets LHP Jonathon Niese. However, Smith went 0-for-4 with a walk and was 0-for-2 against Niese, leaving him 2-for-5 against left-handers and 11-for-34 (.324) overall with a .395 on-base percentage and .588 slugging percentage.
.630 -- On-base percentage for 2B Jonathan Herrera, who reached base three times in five plate appearances Wednesday with a single, a double and a walk in the Rockies' 5-4 win at New York. Herrera has scored six runs in five games on the current road trip and is hitting .474.
"It was imbedded in our head that we have to get off to a good start. We left spring training with a new mentality, knowing how important this was." -- SS Troy Tulowitzki, on the Rockies' 8-2 overall record and 5-1 road record.

Egypt beat Mexico in Volleyball Men's U23 World Championship
Egypt beat Mexico 4-1 to claim their second win in the 2017...
Al Masry goalkeeper Ahmed Masoud has been transferred to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in a Port Said hospital.
Ahmed Masoud suffered a cut on his eyelid, which took seven stitches to heal, and fractures on the left side of his face after a collision between him and a Smouha player, Ahmed Shokry, which saw the former subbed off the game.
His visit to the hospital came after he failed to gain full consciousness following the game, which meant he could have been suffering from a concussion.
According to the player's brother, he will be transferred to a hospital in Cairo by dawn if his condition does improve to operate under his eye, since that is where he can get the best medical help. He also accused Shokry of deliberately hurting Masoud and feels bitter that he did not visit him in the hospital.
Ahmed Masoud was also rejected in a hospital in Ismailia, which saw him transferred straight to Port Said.
It is to be noted that Masoud is on a year-long loan at Al Masry from Misr El-Maqassa, and was recently in talks to extend his loan deal with the Port Said-based club.

After the recent AIB Roast controversy, it seems everybody is in a mood to go back to the conservative times, from which we apparently moved forward years back. The latest to join the gang of regressive society is the film Certification Board of India, who has issued a list of banned words.
While most of the filmmakers and actors were hoping to see a revamp in the laws of CBFC, it seems the Censor Board has taken a complete U-turn and decided to go backwards in terms of thoughts and opinions.
Interestingly, the board has now issued a notice stating the words that have been banned in Bollywood films. Censor board has mentioned a list of Indian and English slangs which will not be allowed in any certificate films including regional languages.
Have a look at the list of banned words below and decide whether this will lead Indian films towards progression or regression!
CBFC's list of banned words is a joke!

This is probably stupid, but let me ask it anyway. I use the WASC recipe from this site. Should I mix each ingredient at the lowest speed until mixed thoroughly and when ALL ingredients are mixed go ahead and do the 2 minute medium speed????
Or, should I dump in all the ingredients and mix together?? That is ALOT of batter, and this is why I was mixing each one at a time. However, I have been getting HUG humps in my cakes, thinking this may be why??
What do you think??
I bake at 325, use a therm. to check temp. Use flower nails as heating cores and use bake even strips.....still having the humps.....
I dump all the wet ingredients together and mix, mix the dry stuff separately, then add the dry to the wet, mixing slowly until all the dry is moistened and then do my 2 minutes. HTH.
What temp do you bake at? And have you checked your oven with a thermometer t make SURE that whay you set it for is what you're getting? I think that's probably the cause of your cake humps.
As for mixing. dump it all in and then mix it. I find that with my mixer it helps to sift my dry ingredients into a large bowl and put the wet ingredients in the mixing bowl FIRST. Then dump the dry ingredients on top and mix. Otherwise, I end up with a little dry mix at the bottom that isn't incorporated...
I am baking my cakes at 325 degrees. I have a oven therm. that STAYS inside the oven to make sure it is staying at 325.
I am baking a sheet cake that is about 11 x15. It takes me about 1 hour.......
Ditto to the above.
The other thing you could try is to use the bake even strips - they help make the top a little more even. And with larger cakes, I use the flower nail in the center. My domes are much smaller since I started using these methods.
I also use the flower nails. The even strips, will not wrap around my sheet cake pan tightly, very loose??? Because of the rectangle shape, I think?? This is why I am thinking it might be my mixing????
Thank you folks!
I am going to try and mix the batter as descriped above....
I started using the bake even strips and my cakes look beautiful. I recently read about the flower nail method and tried it in my last cake without the bake even strips. It was a disaster. My cake tops had bumps all over them. Don't know why it happened but I'm afraid to use the nails again.
For those using bake even strips, what kind are you using?
I mix all my dry stuff first, sift everything, well I put a large metal mesh strainer over a bowl dump all my dry into it and stir either with a wooden spoon or a whisk, basically pushing everything through the mesh to sift it, then I add my eggs, then the rest of my wet ingredients then mix it all together. The only issue I ever have with that order is sometimes the eggs get caught up in the beaters and wrap around and take a bit to come loose, but my cakes usually turn out ok, as long as I keep the oven door shut until they're almost done.
I've done both methods. Add by ingredient, and also just dump it all into one bowl and mix it by hand. I've had the same results each time. I get humps too.
But I don't use bake even strips. I just use flower nails. I don't like having very many single use utensils in my kitchen. (Guess which food network star I never miss???)
Thank you

Help please...I'm trying to make a SC Clemson paw cake for a friend and am having a difficult time matching the orange. (he doesn't want it to be TN orange)
I've tried taking the Orange from Wilton..and adding copper, but it didn't keep the bright color. Anyone in SC willing to share what they do? Thank you..Missy
my husband is a clemson fanatic, so i know the color well. I'd say try adding a TINY bit of yellow to brighten it a bit, and then TINY bits of red as you go. Also, the colors will darken as it sets, so slow going is probably your best option. also, keep it out of bright light as that can cause the color to fade.
Have you tried Americolor neon orange? I have had good luck with bright orange staying bright. I'm from SC and know Clemson orange, but I'm embarrassed to say that I didn't know that the UT Vols were a different orange
thank you for the suggestions..I'll try adding the yellow and red (too late to order Americolor). I'll let you know if I succeed!

Shot from his window, the forty minute video, called "Doin' Time in Times Square," includes everything you'd expect from candid 1980s Times Square footage—slow mo knock-out punches, neon XXX signs, plenty of cameos from the NYPD, and chaos. The chaos, however, is interspersed with quiet scenes from inside the apartment where all of this was being filmed from. It's been described as "the home video from hell," and was shown at the New York Film Festival in the 1990s.
"Described as the home video from hell, Doin Time in Times Square documents the view and action outside director Charlie Ahearns 43rd Street apartment window from 1981 to 1983. Charlie Ahearn, whose 1983 film Wild Style was a cult hip hop hit, was blessed with a generous view of the sleeze emporiums up Eighth Avenue and down 43rd. His window provides a view into midtown New Yorks street brutality in those dark years before it was cleaned up and Disneyfied, His Hi-8 camera captures rip-offs, drug sales, police stake-outs and fights – lots of fights. On any given day we see fist-fights, domestic squabbles and bad deals going down. It is both a social and personal document."

Your Chevrolet dealership isn't the only place to locate the best replacement parts for your C30 Pickup. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other cars, trucks, and SUVs currently being driven today. Anyone who drives a Chevrolet knows that when it comes to repairing their automobile only the highest quality replacement parts will do. Auto enthusiasts appreciate the a trusted name built into each Chevrolet, and know that only top quality replacement C30 Pickup parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing.
The first applications of the use of hydraulic pressure were in mining and supplying water across great distances. However, it took a couple of decades of automobile production until the drum brake wheel cylinders, like the ones found on your Chevrolet C30 Pickup, were invented. Chevrolet C30 Pickup drum brake wheel cylinders act like slave cylinders do. They force the brake shoes apart when hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder gets distributed to each wheel. The shoes make contact with the inside of the drums; creating friction which causes you to slow down.
When your Chevrolet needs a new replacement Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder, there's no need to trust any store other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. Procuring new Chevrolet parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are getting the best deal on the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement C30 Pickup parts on the internet. Don't let a broken Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder bring about the demise of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by using anything but the best replacement parts. All the Chevrolet C30 Pickup Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder parts on this page will fit vehicles made in 1974, 1973, 1972, 1971, 1970, 1969, 1968, 1967, 1966, 1965, 1964, 1963, 1962, 1961, 1960.

Marine PetroleumDividend Yield: 9.20% Marine Petroleum (NASDAQ: MARPS) shares currently have a dividend yield of 9.20%. Marine Petroleum Trust, through its subsidiary, Marine Petroleum Corporation, operates as a royalty trust in the United States. The company has a P/E ratio of 11.81. The average volume for Marine Petroleum has been 2,800 shares per day over the past 30 days. Marine Petroleum has a market cap of $32.8 million and is part of the financial services industry. Shares are up 17.4% year to date as of the close of trading on Tuesday. TheStreet Ratings rates Marine Petroleum as a hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and increase in net income. However, as a counter to these strengths, we find that the stock has had a generally disappointing performance in the past year. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 5.4%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 19.0%. This growth in revenue appears to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, improving the earnings per share.
- MARPS has no debt to speak of therefore resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of zero, which we consider to be a relatively favorable sign.
- The gross profit margin for MARINE PETROLEUM TRUST is currently very high, coming in at 100.00%. MARPS has managed to maintain the strong profit margin since the same quarter of last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, MARPS's net profit margin of 96.11% significantly outperformed against the industry.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry and the overall market, MARINE PETROLEUM TRUST's return on equity significantly exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- MARPS has underperformed the S&P 500 Index, declining 9.78% from its price level of one year ago. The fact that the stock is now selling for less than others in its industry in relation to its current earnings is not reason enough to justify a buy rating at this time.

Last week, I offered some praise for "The Catholic Key Blog," the online presence of the Kansas City-St. Joseph archdiocesan newspaper edited by Jack Smith. Smith offers some provocative and generally well-written commentary that reflects the views of the conservative bishop he serves (or so it seems) and a good number of the faithful of the church.
But there's provocative and then there's … well, bizarre. Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan, Smith writes this week, is "thoroughly totalitarian." (You have to scroll down a bit to see this posting.)
Accusing someone in political life of being "thoroughly totalitarian" is, to my mind, the equivalent of charging that someone is a fascist or communist, a Holocaust denier, a racist, an anti-Catholic, an anti-Semite, a bigot; someone, in other words, whose ideas and actions make them, by definition, illegitimate, not worthy of consideration in the civil discussion. Someone to be shunned.
It is a serious accusation, or at least it should be, because, in fact, there are people in public life actually worthy of the title. And when the charge is made casually it diminishes the impact when it is made substantively.
Smith bases his "thoroughly totalitarian" calumny on an exchange Kagan, the Solicitor General of the United States, had yesterday with Oklahoma Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK). Coburn, though he's not a lawyer, engaged Kagan in a classic law school hypothetical. Can the government, he asked Kagan, pass a law requiring Americans to eat three vegetables and three fruits a day? Moreover, can defense of such a statute be based on the Constitution's commerce clause, an expansive reading of which Coburn generally opposes.
Kagan, to her credit, said the statute envisioned by the Coburn hypothetical sounded like a "dumb law." Then, channeling conservative Justice Antonin Scalia, she noted that just because a law is stupid doesn't mean it is necessarily unconstitutional.
Kagan and Coburn then engaged in a rather arcane discussion of the elasticity, or lack thereof, of the commerce clause. Coburn was making a point that ultimately had little to do with vegetables and fruits. Rather, his metaphorical garden was about health care, particularly provisions of the recent reform package that require Americans who do not have health insurance to either purchase such coverage or be charged a fine/tax if they don't. Several state attorneys general are planning to sue the Federal government on this very question and the defense is expected to be based on the Federal government's right to regulate commerce – in this case the purchase of health care – under the commerce clause.
As it happens, a broad reading of the commerce clause is pretty standard stuff in the world of jurisprudence. There a reason for this: The wording of the clause itself is, well, pretty expansive. Congress, says the Constitution, has the power "to regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes." It's hardly a classic liberal vs. conservative or even states' rights vs. federalist issue.
Kagan is by almost all accounts a pretty smart lawyer, as are her future colleagues on the Supreme Court. Each of them, no doubt, would find some constitutional basis to oppose such a stupid law (the right not to associate with broccoli?) But, again, the question was a hypothetical designed to ferret out her views on health care mandates asked in the context of an ongoing debate about the scope of the Commerce Clause. And that's how she answered it.
None of which Smith seems to understand. "…with this nominee, Obama has put forward a totalitarian who thinks even the power to decide your dinner menu is absolutely Uncle Sam's," he writes.
Does he really believe this nonsense?
And how does it serve the Church (which is what I assume Smith sees his role as) to have a de facto spokesman for one of the nation's more controversial bishops, former Diocesan newspaper editor Robert Finn, slinging loony political epithets at the next associate justice of the Supreme Court?

I've dealt with "regular" acne since my teens but suffered from cystic acne after getting the mirena. I have since removed the mirena and cleared my acne up but have pitted spots and a few forehead wrinkles. I've been wanting to do something about this for so long and finally took the plunge. Today was the first of 4 treatments. I have had chemical peels in the past (ouch) but, the pain today was doable. I would describe it as getting your face tattooed with added heat. It hurt most on my forehead and near my ears. Hoping for a much clearer face in the end! Fingers crossed!
Fractional Skin Resurfacing for Cystic Acne Scars - Kansas City
I've dealt with "regular" acne since my teens but...
ready for round 2!
I haven't shown much an improvement since the last post. Though, I could tell a slight improvement with the pictures I posted. I go in for my next treatment on Dec 29th! I can't wait to get the treatments over!!
round 2
I had my second of 4 treatments yesterday. It felt like it went faster even though it was the same as the first. I had mild redness for the rest if the night. Couple of blotches were left this morning and burned a little after cleansing. Nothing too serious. I am setting my hope really high seeing how well my face us taking to it. Happy, Happy, happy! Pictures soon :)
next week will be my third treatment!
I always come out doubting my face looking better after each session, but, slowly it's looking up. Its one of those slow processes where it keeps getting better. I hope 6 months from now I'm scar free, but, I'm blessed how far I am now. I think I have decided to add some botox. I'm 27 and,have these wrinkles on my forehead that start looking,better after treatment,but, creep back. I was tol by my old esthetician to start early. So I'm going to ask next time I go in. Why not? Lol.

A dream. An Icon. A masterpiece. Each Louis Vuitton product is the embodiment of uncompromising quality and exceptional craftsmanship. From the famous Monogram pattern to the astonishing Louis Vuitton diamond cut, the Maison enchants the world with its unique creations since 1854. Today, Louis Vuitton takes you to a journey through a world of luxury, inventiveness and excellence: the world of Louis Vuitton's savoir-faire.
Seven crafts performed by hands outlined by daylight. They stitch the skin of a Speedy bag with beeswax-coated yarn, hollow a pea jacket at the waistcoat, sheath the trunk case of a Wardrobe with a creaser, smooth a shoe upper to perfection, scour the contours of a Craquantes jewel, coat the arms of a pair of glasses, file the bevels of a Tambour movement.
Gestures speak. Instrument confer. Words are silent. Passion is revealed. Bruno Aveillan brings his artist's eye to the House's know-how, passing it on in turn, in his own way.
Atelier Maroquinerie / Leather Goods Workshop
These are all iconic bags that have marked Louis Vuitton, manufacturer of leather goods and trunks since 1854, the year the House was founded. The famous Monogram canvas, which first featured in 1896, remains, along with the natural cowhide leather, one of the most widely used materials.
The legend of Louis Vuitton is inseparable from the history of travel. Anticipating the needs of travelers, the company made its name with luggage, bags and accessories of unrivalled quality and attention to detail.
Today, Louis Vuitton continues to nurture its tradition of excellence and craftsmanship, creating products that are highly valued throughout the world. Its savoir-faire is embodied by such unique and recognizable signatures as the Damier and Monogram canvases, the historic emblems of Louis Vuitton.
It is within Louis Vuitton's leather goods workshops that this long tradition of expertise is passed on from one generation to the next.

Sometime after I installed version 3.0 my GMail SW help desk settings (which were not changed) all of a sudden became invalid and help desk emails quit flowing. I didn't really care back then because we didn't yet have a need for email flow...now we do.
I receive the following error:
Error on outgoing settings: Timed out trying to reach smtp.gmail.com on port 587. Please check your settings. Please note that SMTP via proxy is not supported. Error on incoming settings: Password must be correct and User name must be correct
I rekeyed all the settings and used the ports and authentication options requested by GMail for both POP and IMAP and still cannot make this work in SW. Any thoughts?

Gmail uses 25, 465 and 587 for SMTP, but since almost all isps block 25, you may want to try yours with Port 465.

Question regarding secondary crafting/gathering tools (off-hand) -
Are the stats on your secondary crafting tool always in effect as long as it is equipped are they only in effect when you are actually using your secondary tool to craft/gather?
I made an Iron Needle for myself when I had Blacksmith high enough just so I can level weaver a bit as I picked up moko grass and cotton bolls while fighting/gathering/etc and repair my Tarred Walking Hat with straw I pick up. I haven't picked up a secondary weaving tool yet partly due to inventory space always being tight. So I am wondering if having a secondary tool equipped helps at all if you're doing primary tool crafting/gathering.
