Mordac: I, Mordac, the preventer of information services, reject your business case because you used the old template. Ha ha ha! I feed on your anger and frustration! And now I will eat like a king! Dilbert: Good luck with that. I've been dead on the inside since the teamwork seminar. Mordac: Sheesh. I'm living on goldfish crackers.

Coworker: I should warn you that I'm a perfectionist. Dilbert: I appreciate the warning. Do you have any other psychological problems or just the one? Coworker: I don't think of it as a "problem." Dilbert: I guess that's what makes it so bad. I see a lot of other psychological problems in your writing. Cognitive dissonance, unrealistic optimism, and some projection bias. But I can see why you think your perfectionism is the worst part. Coworker: You're a jerk. Dilbert: ...and here come the anger issues.

Alice: I worked all night to finish my part. Coworker: I admire your work ethic, Alice. I only finished half of my part. Alice: Wait... if you didn't finish your part, it was a total waste of time for me to finish mine. Coworker: That's one way to look at it. Alice: What time last night did you know you would not be done by today? Coworker: Must have been about six. I got hungry, then I had to unwind. Are you trying to make my head explode by focusing anger at my skull? Alice: First time that worked. Practice paid off.

Saturday's gate picks were done at random, and Team USA was nearly last, giving Ryan Dungey, Jake Weimer, and Ivan Tedesco a significant disadvantage. The team finished sixth overall after struggling with come-from-behind efforts in the MX1 and MX2 heats.
Tedesco actually pulled off a great start from the outside in the MX3 heat, but finished fifth after a battle with the UK's Shaun Simpson. Team USA's manager Roger DeCoster was still pleased with what they were able to pull out together from bad gate picks.
Saturday's crowd was simply huge, as large as any MXoN Saturday to date, if not larger. A good conservative estimate would be at least 25,000. And this is just Saturday!
Team France is second overall. Their results were Steve Frossard fourth (MX1), Marvin Musquin first (MX2), and Gautier Paulin second (MX3).
Tonight Youthstream is organizing the FIM Off Road Awards in the paddock.
Scratch the Alessi to Australian SX rumor from yesterday, that one is not confirmed. He is skipping US Supercross in 2010 and plans on doing the first 3 GPs on a KTM 350.
The newest buzz has Chad Reed possibly signing on as Ryan Villapoto's teammate on Monster Energy Kawasaki, and the deal includes Monster Energy support for Reed's Australian Supercross series. It's not clear if he is signing on for SX only again.
The crowds are amazing here. This Saturday had at least 25,000 (left). Reed anchors the strong Australian team (right).

In this website you will find a description of the professional services that I offer.
As a life-long learner, I am continually curious about new ideas and am excited to expand my professional life to include them. As Ken Wilbur suggests, the best innovations create something new, yet don't leave anything behind.
Although I work in a number of different areas, to me they are all part of a natural evolution of the same thing – all part of one professional life. From an unexpected beginning in a group home in northern BC to a therapy and consulting practice in Vancouver as well as training and facilitating internationally, I am passionate about creating opportunities for authentic engagement and aspire to leave every situation better than I found it. Whether I am working with an individual who is suffering, a couple in conflict, a practice group struggling to create understanding and cohesion, or trying to find the right word to articulate a training idea that is just on the edge of my awareness, it is all inspired by the same basic intention.
Mark Nepo writes "Live deeply enough and there is only one direction."
It is my privilege to share in the creation of forums to help others identify their direction and to take their next steps. I am eternally grateful to those who have helped me with mine.
I believe that when we have all our senses working together - our instincts, heart, head and higher vision and values - our direction becomes clear and we can resolve that which is in front of us. From there we can do anything we are truly passionate about.

Mazda, I posted a comment on an edanders puzzle for you about seeing trains. It may sound harsh but it is not meant to be like that, only helpful. I have lived around trains all my life and find it hard to believe that there aren't trains near where your live. I don't care about your name or exactly where you live but if you are general enough we can find trains near you.
Very nice puzzle Thank you....Naoma

Over Half a Million Israelis Taking Off for Foreign Shores, but El Al Down 5%
Over half a million Israelis will take off for foreign shores during September and October. Of those, some 60 percent will be heading for Western Europe, and the classic capital cities are still the most popular destinations: Paris, Rome and London.
Another 8 percent will relax around the eastern shores of the Mediterranean basin: Greece, Turkey, Egypt and Cyprus.
Destinations much further east are also quite popular: Hong Kong, Mumbai and Bangkok.
Beijing has seen the most dramatic growth in Israeli interest in the last year, doubling the number of tourists, according to figures reported by El Al in advance of the holiday vacation season.
Traffic to New York has grown 5 percent since the beginning of 2006, compared to last year, with 16,000 Israelis expected to visit the Big Apple during the holiday season.
Most of the travelers are families with children, or couples, and the average stay is two weeks.
El Al also reported that it has seen a 5 percent reduction in the number of passengers over the period compared to last year, with 90,000 scheduled to fly on its planes.
Israir has different numbers. It claims a 10 percent increase in reservations from last year. Israir thinks that this is a result of the Lebanon war, with Israelis making up now for the holidays that they canceled during the summer months.
There are three main types of vacations ordered during the holiday period according to Aviva Haviv, the head of marketing for the Natur and Unitel travel agency of the Israir group.
The three types are: Trips to nearby vacation regions, such as the Greek islands and Bulgaria; popular vacation destinations such as Italy or Thailand; and independent vacations in places such as Spain, Provence or Germany.
Some 230,000 tourists are expected to fly in the opposite direction (foreigners coming to visit Israel over the holidays) compared to over twice that many Israelis, some 520,000 who are leaving for vacations abroad.
Finally, ticket prices this year are higher than last year due to the increase in fuel prices and increased airport fees in several popular destinations.

I n 2011, the IRS investigated 296 cases for Identity theft. In 2012 the number jumped to 898. Last year there were 1,492.
The IRS speaks to four ways outlaws try to steal your money after you have filed the return, telephone, computer, rogue tax preparers, and data breach.
A scammer calls, posing as an IRS official, saying you must send money to avoid penalties and interest.
The IRS has the reputation for successfully getting money owed.
Scammers know this fact and this is why it is used. When you receive such a call, hang up. The IRS does not use the telephone to contact taxpayers about issues in their returns. Most are sent through the postal service
It is estimated that over $1 million dollars was lost through the telephone scam. The agency calls this one of the worse scams of this kind.
The IRS does not use a computer to let you know of problems, either. Delete any e-mail proclaiming it is from the IRS.
If for some reason you are in doubt, call the IRS office nearest you.
It shouldn't be necessary to warn anyone of the dangers connected with e-mails asking for personal data.
Many workers have access to our personal data. It is very difficult to pledge absolute protection against fraud with our records in hospitals, doctor offices, police departments, schools and other places where the data is essential for service.
People who prepare tax returns are able to take personal data from the records submitted by their clients.
It is important to know the company doing this work for you. This is less of a problem for Milam County residents.
Those filing returns with people and unfamiliar companies should examine their personal accounts for any activity they did not authorize.
EXPO—Next planning session for the Milam County Senior Expo is 9 a.m. April 23 at the New Salem building in Rockdale's Fair Park. email@example.com

U.S.: Tech Is Pumping Life Into Manufacturing
In an economy growing at a pace close to 4%, perhaps it's not surprising that manufacturing is in a rebound. What may turn heads, though, are the sources of the revival. Makers of advanced technology equipment, almost given up for dead after the bursting of the tech bubble, have been on a tear recently, boosting output, thanks to the gains in capital spending. And exports are stirring to life, animated by better growth prospects around the world, especially since Europe and Japan are finding firmer footing.
Meanwhile, post-hurricane rebuilding, fueled partly by federal money, and still-strong demand overall will boost goods production. Plus, businesses may have been too cautious about managing their inventories this summer. Now stockpiles are skimpy, and the backlog of factory orders has grown rapidly over the past six months.
Given the brighter picture for output, it's no wonder manufacturing executives are growing more upbeat. A survey of chief financial officers in the factory sector done by Bank of America Business Capital (BAC ) showed that 73% of CFOs expect their company's revenues to increase in 2006, with 68% expecting increased export sales and 61% planning to lift prices.
Of course, the factory sector still faces long-run challenges. The recent news from General Motors Corp. (GM ) illustrates that U.S. manufacturers must adapt to the new global economy or risk failure. But in the short run, the strong gains in demand greatly improve the 2006 outlook for manufacturing. That means overall economic growth will remain sturdy next year even if consumers begin to scale back their spending in response to higher heating bills and a cooling off in home prices.
Given that the growth in industrial output is being led by advanced technology, companies still appear to be heeding the productivity imperative. Productivity growth, which is expected to slow next year, is unlikely to collapse as it has in past business upturns. That will limit inflation pressures in 2006 as well as curb the rise in interest rates.
FACTORY OUTPUT is on track to expand by close to 3 1/2% this year, but the pace in recent months has been even faster. Factory production jumped 1.4% in October, lifted partly by a return to operation after the strike at Boeing Co. (BA ) and a rebound from September's post-hurricane depressed levels. But even after adjusting for those events, the strength was broadbased.
The gain was consistent with the generally robust results from the October surveys of industrial activity. And based on regional surveys so far in November, including those from the New York and Philadelphia Federal Reserve districts, November output is also set to score a strong advance.
The steady rise in output has caused companies to start using more of their facilities. In October manufacturers used 79% of their production capacity, close to the long-term average of 79.8%. Excluding the industries where production was still down after the hurricanes, the operating rate exceeded 80%.
But the real force behind manufacturing production this year is tech equipment. Output of semiconductors, computers, peripherals, and communications equipment has shot up 25% during the past year, the fastest annual clip in nearly five years. So far in 2005, business outlays for information-processing gear have accounted for two-thirds of all equipment spending, up from only one-third in 2004.
Business equipment will continue to lead industrial growth in 2006, according to the latest quarterly forecast from the Manufacturers Alliance/MAPI. The research group expects overall real investment in equipment and software to grow 9.3% in 2006, with outlays for info-processing hardware up 13%, close to the current pace. One possible downside to tech-led growth: It may be contributing to a growing shortage in skilled workers. A study by the National Association of Manufacturers and Deloitte Consulting LLP showed that 81% of the more than 800 U.S. manufacturers surveyed reported moderate to severe skilled worker shortages.
BESIDES THE GREATER DEMAND for tech equipment, manufacturers are also seeing a pickup in orders from foreigners. And that increase should continue into 2006.
Price-adjusted exports increased a solid 7.5% in the year ended in the third quarter. The gain probably would have been larger, but the Boeing strike held down overseas shipments of aircraft. Now that it's over, look for aircraft exports to bounce back in the fourth quarter. Real merchandise exports for the full year should increase close to the 9.1% advance seen in 2004. Demand has picked up for a wide swath of goods, including pharmaceuticals, plastics, specialized industrial machinery, and steel products.
The outlook for exports is improving because global growth is more promising too. The euro zone expanded at an annual rate of 2.4% in the third quarter, its best showing in 1 1/2 years. Third-quarter growth in Japan's real gross domestic product slowed a bit, but domestic spending picked up, boosting the nation's demand for U.S. exports. And Southeast Asia continues to grow like gangbusters.
It's not just the data that signal better prospects. The attitude of central bankers around the world also suggests that economic growth in their regions is picking up -- and that is paving the way for higher interest rates. Policymakers at the European Central Bank already have implied strongly that they are set to begin hiking rates in December. Meanwhile, Bank of Japan officials have ruffled some political feathers by indicating that the BOJ will start moving monetary policy away from its accommodative stance to a more neutral one.
THE RISE IN FOREIGN RATES may reverse some of the recent strengthening in the greenback, making American products cheaper overseas. That's because a narrowing of the spread between U.S. and foreign interest rates will make dollar-denominated assets relatively less attractive.
Still, the pickup in exports won't do much to narrow the huge U.S. trade deficit. Higher oil prices alone will push up the import total. Plus, U.S. demand is solid enough to keep other imports flowing in. That means the foreign trade sector will still be a drag on economic growth.
But the latest news on foreign purchases of U.S. securities suggests that foreigners are still more than willing to finance America's trade gap. Net foreign purchases of U.S. securities hit a record $101.9 billion in September, including especially strong demand for U.S. equities and corporate bonds. The capital inflows suggest that any weakening in the dollar will not happen quickly even with the increase in foreign interest rates.
Regardless of the dollar's value, U.S. manufacturers will continue to face unprecedented global competition. That, plus the need to enhance productivity, will keep the pressure on factory revenues and payrolls. But in the short run, at least, recent improvement in the manufacturing sector is one of the best signs that the U.S. economy will maintain its momentum into 2006.

Shell Pond Cleanup and Wetland Restoration
Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the PG&E Shell Pond?
The PG&E Shell Pond property is a private property owned by PG&E and located along the waterfront next to Suisun and Honker Bays in Bay Point, California.
What is the PG&E Shell Pond and why does it need to be cleaned up?
The PG&E Shell Pond is a 73-acre former wastewater area located in the center of a 292-acre parcel that PG&E purchased from Shell Oil Products Company (Shell) in 1973. From 1950 to 1973, Shell discharged wastewater into the pond from its chemical manufacturing activities. PG&E purchased the property with the intent of expanding operations it had in the area. The expansion did not occur, but PG&E kept the property and today is responsible for maintaining and cleaning it up. There are 240,000 cubic yards of sediments containing chemicals that will be dug up and disposed of at the Keller Canyon Landfill.
Who is overseeing the cleanup?
The cleanup project is being overseen by the State of California, Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), Contra Costa County, and the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, with input from the community.
What is the current status of the cleanup?
A temporary access road was constructed in 2011 and dredging work to remove impacted material from the bottom of the pond began in January 2012. Within a few days of conducting dredging operations, we determined that the odor control systems were not as effective as anticipated during project design. On January 19, 2012, PG&E conferred with DTSC, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, and Contra Costa County and cooperatively elected to suspend all operations for an indeterminate amount of time to evaluate additional engineering options to more effectively manage site odors.
We anticipate that the engineering evaluation may take several months and we will not restart operations without agency approval.
How long will the cleanup last?
Cleanup and wetland restoration activities were expected to last until late-2012. Due to the recent suspension of cleanup activities, we cannot determine a completion date at this time. As soon as we are able to implement a new plan to more effectively manage off-site odors and the project restarts, we will update the project schedule accordingly.
How will cleanup work impact neighbors and the community?
The work is located far enough away from the community that we expect off-site impacts such as noise and vibrations to be very minor. Significant off-site odors related to the dredging were an unanticipated result. Due to these odors, PG&E has suspended the project until further notice. The project team is working on a new plan to more effectively manage off-site odors and anticipates implementation of these measures within a few months.
Excavation activities will cause an increase in traffic along Port Chicago Highway. There will be approximately 75 trips to and from the site (150 trips total) each day, which is about two extra trucks every ten minutes, for a period of six months.
How will traffic be managed?
A Traffic Management Plan has been developed and approved by DTSC and the County to make sure that traffic associated with this project is tightly controlled, safely managed and includes the following:
- A Truck Boss will be responsible for managing and coordinating the flow of all truck traffic
- Trucks will only use the approved truck route
- Trained and certified flaggers will be stationed at key intersections along the McAvoy Road and Port Chicago Highway
- Truckers and flaggers will be in constant communication with each other and the Truck Boss via two-way radios
- Truckers and flaggers have received project specific training
- Truckers must have a valid California Commercial Drivers license and Department of Transportation certifications and inspection records for their trucks
- No more than two project-trucks will be allowed on Port Chicago Highway at any given time
- Trucks will not be allowed to line up on or park on the shoulder of Port Chicago Highway
- Trucks will be inspected, covered and cleaned before leaving the property
- All trucks will have signs identifying them as part of the Shell Pond project with a toll-free number to call with complaints
What measures are being taken to protect the public and the environment?
In order to protect the surrounding community and environment, whenever possible, all trucks associated with the cleanup will be low emission and truck idle time will be limited. To avoid children walking to/from school, trucking hours will be restricted to 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, and trucks will not be allowed to run from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Wednesdays and other early dismissal days.
The project team will avoid biologically sensitive habitats on-site, will use low noise equipment, odor control technologies and practices, will divide construction activities to reduce daily air pollutant emissions, and will use best management practices for dust control and air pollutant emissions.
What will be the future use of this property?
When the cleanup is complete, the pond will be allowed to naturally revert to a wetland area. A portion of the access road will be used by the East Bay Regional Parks District for the Great California Delta Trail.
I heard that there is local hiring for this project? How do I apply for a position?
PG&E recognizes that hiring locally for this job is of great importance to the community. This past summer, PG&E in partnership with Contra Costa County, held several local hire information sessions to identify qualified local individuals early in the process which greatly increases the chances of the contractor using local people.
More than 10 local individuals were hired to fill temporary jobs associated with this project. Unfortunately, due to the recent suspension of cleanup activities, these temporary employees are no longer working on the project. Once the cleanup is ready to restart, PG&E will notify these employees and hopefully reassign them to their prior positions. We originally received more than 300 resumes from the local area, sorted those, conducted 100 phone screenings and passed along over 45 qualified applicants to the contractor.
Because PG&E is conducting this cleanup project in phases, interviews and hiring will occur in phases as well. The first round of interviews was conducted in September 2011 for administrative positions and the remaining interviews for laborers, drivers and equipment operators will take place once the project restarts. Some of the positions will be short term and last just a few weeks, while other jobs will be more long term.
At this time, due to the project suspension and the number of qualified applicants that have already applied, we have enough individuals to fill the available positions. However, we are always excited to receive qualified resumes and individuals are welcome to submit them through our Contra Costa partner agencies: Opportunity Junction at (925) 252.2337 or the Bay Point Career Center at (925) 252.2331.
What is a wetland and how will the cleanup benefit the community?
A wetland is an open space that provides a transition between water and land. Wetlands are also referred to as marshes or swamps. The cleanup of the Shell Pond property will restore one of the largest wetlands in the east bay and offers many important benefits to the community including:
- Filters and cleans water runoff from the surrounding area
- Absorbs water and limits flooding of nearby areas
- Supplies water to underground aquifers (water underneath the ground)
- Improves air quality in the community
- Provides a home for animals, plants and fish
- Provides an opportunity for recreation, education and the access road built as part of the project will become part of the Great California Delta Trail
What are the future plans for the Shell Pond property?
After cleanup is complete, PG&E will need to retain ownership of the property for several years to monitor the wetland restoration and make sure it is working as planned.
How can I get up-to-date information on the project?
PG&E has set up a 24-hour community hotline – 1 (877) 666-8436 – to ensure that community members can obtain project information and report complaints in a timely manner.
PG&E has also set up a project specific website at: www.pge.com/pge-shell-pond where you can find project information.
PG&E is committed to providing the community of Bay Point with information on this project. We will be issuing monthly updates on the project as well as holding informal open houses at key points of the project. Information about community outreach will be posted on PG&E's website and you are welcome to call the hotline to leave your email address so we can send you project updates.

To jazz lovers the name of saxophonist and flutist Jeff Coffin should not be new. In addition to his 14 years spent as a member of Bela Fleck's band, Coffin has worked with others like Dave Matthews and spent a lot of time working in studios for artists like Delbert McClinton, Brooks & Dunn and Marc Broussard. For this three-time Grammy winner, Coffin's newest recording is a two-disc set gathered from live concerts in Illinois and Texas with his musicians while on tour in 2010 and 2011.
Coffin uses two different bands on the recordings. Among the musicians working with Coffin are drummer Jeff Sipe, who has worked with the Aquarium Rescue Unit, blues woman Susan Tedeschi, jazz pioneer Greg Osby and Project Z, among others,- and bassist Felix Pastorius, who is the son of famed bassist Jaco Pastorius and himself has worked with Coffin since 2002 as well as with others like Cindy Blackman. Others include keyboardist Kofi Burbridge who has worked with artists Derek Trucks and Herbie Hancock, trumpeter Bill Fanning who has worked with George Garzone and George Russell, and guitarist and newcomer Mike Seal.
Captured here are eight compositions, six Coffin originals and two co-composed pieces, on which all of the musicians get the opportunity to stretch out, a luxury not usually afforded in the studio. What is here is some of the best fusion heard in many a year. That Coffin, who is continually underrated as a saxophonist, blazes a mean trail, comes as no surprise to those who are familiar with his Flecktones work. The compositions themselves fall into a lovely post-Brecker Brothers vibe, both in terms of their construction and the electronic elements both Coffin and his trumpeter utilize. Think Heavy Metal Bebop, but not just limited to wah-wah pedals. In bringing out the hardware both horn players find ways to incorporate it into the music in exciting yet musical ways and never turn it on the electricity for the sake of electricity.
The biggest surprise of the recording is just how musical Pastorius is as a bassist. You can figure that he'd work his butt off to have endless technique, nobody wants to live in the shadow of their father, and while young Pastorius is definitely developing great technical capabilities, it's his lovely phrases, both as a soloist, as on "Al's Greens," or when playing lines behind the soloists, that dazzle.
Highlights on the discs include "Tag," an ultra bopish ramble, "Move Your Rug," a nice second-line throw-down, and "The Evil Boweevil," on which Coffin blows some of the hottest saxophone heard since "Funky Sea Funky Dew." What it will take for Coffin to get the recognition he's due will most probably just take time, but releases like this one, as a leader, will greatly push his street cred up greatly.

Frankie Muniz - you may remember him from the early Noughties show Malcolm In The Middle - is in the UK with his band (eh?) Kingsfoil. Yup, that's right, Agent Cody Banks is in a band. AND before the band he was a - wait for it - race car driver!? What the actual eff?
As well as appearing on the big and small screen since 2000, Frankie was a successful race car driver, and last year he decided to put is apparent drumming skills to good use and joined forces with Jordan Davis (vocals), Tristan Martin (guitar and keyboard) and Tim Warren (bass) in a totally rad band. *Does rocker hand thing, sticks tongue out*.
Who'd have thought our favourite on-screen geek would turn out to have not one but two other careers on the side. We mean, working two jobs isn't exactly an alien notion and Team MyDaily has juggled a fair few vocations simultaneously, but an actor and a race car driver AND a drummer in a band, those are some pretty intense SLASH totes cool career options.
Somehow checkout girl at Asda, factory worker, cutting net curtains in a haberdashery shop, stuffing envelopes for the local council, selling scarfs to drunk football fans and showing cars where to park in a field at a festival while getting horrendously sunburned doesn't quite measure up.
BUT guess what? Frankie isn't the only celeb moonlighting as somethin' else, and believe us when we say you will never ever guess what Tom Selleck aka Richard out of Friends does to supplement his income. So, check it...

Minnesota's tax collectors are waiving their deadlines for northeastern Minnesota businesses affected by flooding.
The Revenue Department said Monday that it won't charge late penalties or interest for monthly sales tax returns and other business taxes filed by Aug. 30.
The waiver applies to businesses and individuals in St. Louis and Carlton counties, where Duluth, Moose Lake, Barnum and other communities were severely flooded last month.
Revenue Commissioner Myron Frans says those affected by the storms have "much more to worry about" than tax deadlines.

" Manufacturer: ESPN Inc / Type: Sports "
ESPN is an American Sports Television Network owned in it's major part by the Walt Disney Company. ESPN actually stands for Entertainment and Sports Programming Network & was founded Scott Rasmussen along with his father Bill way back in 1979.
In Britain today the network has 4 channels to choose from. ESPN, ESPN-HD (The same channel but in high definition), ESPN America (which predominantly broadcasts American Sports Like Baseball, Ice Hockey & College American Football) & ESPN Classic (which essentially shows repeats of classic games).
If you subscribe to Sky sports then you get the first 3 of those channels for £9 per month, however they cost more if you do not (around £14.00). ESPN Classic actually comes on Sky if you purchase their news mix which costs £1.00 per month (you would then also get the Eurosport channels). Because of this it also offers a cheaper alternative to Sky Sports. Sports & Movies together are about £28.00 Sports on its own is about £20 so this is a viable & cheaper alternative.
ESPN in Britain shows a variety of sport. This includes Live Barclays Premier League Football, Scottish premier League Footbal from the UK. Budesliga, Serie A, Eredivisie & the UEFA Europa Cup Football from Europe. Plus from the rest of the world, live UFC Mixed Martial Arts, NBA Basketball, AFL Aussie Rules Football & some NHL Ice Hockey.
I find the programming entertaining & the commentary informative. Because they show sport from around the world you can usually find something to watch 24 hours a day, often live. Commentaries are always in English, but usually from the country of the Sports origin (US comms on American Sports & Australian comms on Aussie Rules). As with most sports channels, whether or not you purchase it all really depends on whether you watch the sports shown on it. I watch ESPN America more than this but I do watch some Euopean Football & Some of the Live Ice Hockey (when I do I watch in HD too) The channel is a good channel & great for sports fans. But to be fair, it isn't worth £9.00 per month unless you're watching this (or the other channel) regularly. 4 Stars for Sports Fans, 2 or 1 Star for non Sports Fans
On a seperate note, on June 11, 2010 ESPN will also launch a 3D channel (although this may only be in America) with the first items to be shown in 3D being games from the FIFA 2010 World Cup

Watch How Toddlers Regulate Their Behavior To Avoid Making Adults Mad
A fascinating look at how small children pick up on far more than we think they do.
Toddlers who overhear adults disagreeing can use that emotional information to guide their own behavior, according to a research study from the Institute of Learning & Brain Sciences. Scientists came to this conclusion by conducting a series of experiments where toys were given to young children to play with. So far, so good. But what happens if an adult- even a stranger– does or says something to make the toddler feel that this normal behavior may actually be quite inappropriate?
In this short video re-enactment of the experiment, as an experimenter shows a toy to a 15-month-old boy and then gives him a chance to play with them. Then a second adult, the "Emoter," enters the room. The experimenter shows her how to play with a toy, a strand of beads that make a rattling sound when dropped into a plastic cup. The Emoter calls these actions "aggravating" and "annoying."
The child has a second chance to play with the beads and cup. But the "Emoter" is watching with a neutral facial expression, and he takes these signals on board and chooses not to play with the toy. His little face clearly shows anxiety that the lady who just entered might get mad if he touches the beads. This demonstrates that he's using the emotional information to regulate his own behavior. The experiment was published in the journal Cognitive Development with the title, "Infant, control thyself: Infants' integration of multiple social cues to regulate their imitative behavior."
"Through studying the roots of social-emotional learning we are illuminating an important aspect of human personality and what helps kids succeed in life and school," said researcher Andrew Meltzoff. "There's been a lot of attention on child problem-solving, but if we want to understand what makes kids tick, we need to study their social-emotional lives, too." He says the findings are a step in "shining a light on how infants begin to understand and cope with the drama of human emotions."

Help please, this has been 4 weeks of hell.
Have you read about the 180? I've attached the link to it. I think it would be helpful to you in this situation.
If you're the BSo, I think the signal is that she's done or too effed up to fix herself, and I agree the 180 is for you.
If you're the WSo, I think all you can do is express your commitment to R and hope you bGF comes down on that side. You might get better advice on the WS forum.
If you're the WSo, I recommend looking at the WS forum for insight into how you can heal.

Technology and Art
The Mesopotamian people invented many important and useful technologies still being used today. The Sumerians invented the wagon wheel and the sundial. The wagon wheel was used for transportation of people and goods from place to place. The sundial was a more accurate tool to estimate the time by using the Sun.
Art was a very important part in Mesopotamian history. The people of Mesopotamia created large human-like statues out of mud bricks and other materials to memorialize their kings and gods. The gods and kings were revered in Mesopotamia as ultra-beings and were treated with great respect. Because of this, life revolved around worship of royalty and the other dimensions.

EXETER Racecourse has come to the rescue of trainers desperate to run their horses by staging an additional fixture tomorrow (Tuesday).
The recent storms have left many courses waterlogged, resulting in a reduced fixture list and leaving trainers with very few options to run their horses.
General manager Tim Darby said: "The race calendar has been greatly reduced in recent weeks due to the high rainfall so we are delighted to stage this additional fixture.
"It's been a very tricky time for trainers with so few opportunities to run their horses due to the extreme weather and we are only too pleased to help them out."
The first race comes under starters' orders at 12.45pm with entry costing £10.
Seven races are on the card and gates open at 11.45pm.

Surfside Sports Newport Beach
The revolution will not be televised, but Surfside Sports has a pretty good view nevertheless. Located on the trend-o-matic Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach, the shop has seen the mercurial rise of several brands from an amazing up-close and personal perspective. "We were one of the first shops anywhere to carry Volcom," says owner Duke Edukas, "and we were the number-two Volcom shop back in the day."
Edukas continues to be on the lookout for new brands and products because they simply drive sales best. "Sunglasses are probably our strongest category, and a lot of that is based on what Electric and Von Zipper have done to energize that market," he says. "It's nice to see that it can still happen."
Surfside Sports encompasses a range of sports and is one of the few major surf retailers to go deep and wide with snowboards. In fact, snowboards account for nearly one-third of all business at Surfside Sports, and Burton P.O.P. is prominently displayed in the front windows next to Stüssy, Smith, and Etnies.
Summer sales have been healthy at Surfside Sports, but Edukas says that's hardly a surprise: "Summer is easy; sales are a given. It's spring that's volatile and the weather affects business more than anything. Sure, the economy matters, but we're too far down the line for it to really affect us too greatly. Cool inland skate shops affect us way more — as does water quality along our beaches."
Shoes have been an interesting story at Surfside Sports, and Edukas says he really had the tiger by the tail for a while. While the store carries shoes from Reef, Oakley, DVS, Globe, Etnies, éS, Circa, Gravis, and others, Edukas insists "We're not shoe guys.
"We sell a lot of shoes, but at what margin?" he continues. "Who's making the money, us or the shoe brands?" As a result, Edukas decided to limit SKUs and go really deep with the remaining models. So far, he says it seems to be working."
Employee-incentive programs have also been effective in moving product, and Edukas says employee Drew Dolkas has used the various in-store contests to hone his selling prowess. "As they say, that guy could sell snow to the Eskimos," says Edukas.
Overall, he seems content with business and how things are going: "We're treated pretty damn well, and the brands are always asking what they can do for us. If I had one comment, I'd just say let the retailers do the retailing."

I actually don't think Hip is off the mark here. These coupy CUVs are utterly pointless in any rational standard anyway. So why not make it maximally irrational by removing the rear doors? After all, isn't the point about coupes based on sedans that the lack of practicality represents your status as a fun loving single person, open for business?
I don't mean to put down every sedan based coupes, as some do offer tangible benefits in weight saving and chassis rigidity, but you'd be surprised to know how few actually do. For example, the A5 isn't lighter than the A4, and the 3er coupe isn't lighter than the 3er sedan. My understanding is that one big opening isn't necessarily more rigid than having two smaller openings. So really, the point of most coupes are to reduce practicality to make it look sexier, and also to advertise the fact that the owner is someone who prefers to drive something sexy rather than something practical.
As for Hip sounding like a mad man as usual, I don't think it's because he wants something that isn't going to be very popular. I also don't think it's because he repeats that a lot. I think it's because he makes it sound like it's the most ridiculous thing in the world that the car companies are not making what he wants, as if that's a colossal business oversight. That's where he starts to sound crazy.

Legal Question in Construction Law in Illinois
Last year we had a fence installed on our property. The installers damaged our irrigation sprinkler system. The owner of the fence company (from here on will be fence owner) took responsibility, even though the contract stated they are not responsible for any damage to an irrigation system. My wife wrote on the contract - 'if insurance does not pay for repair, I will have the irrigation repaired.' Then the fence owner signed. We called an irrigation company to assess the damage (from here on will be irrigation company) we told them we are not paying and the fence owner will pay. Irrigation company contacted fence owner and they came to a conclusion that fence owner's insurance will pay. We waited several months and called to schedule the repair, and asked irrigation company if everything is ready to go. They replied that fence owner contacted insurance and will have more info in a few days. We scheduled the repair, irrigation company came out and fixed the problem, and now they did not get paid by the fence owner or his insurance.
No one can get a hold of the fence owner. So they sent us the bill saying we are responsible. Bill was over $3000.00 to our surprise. We never signed anything with irrigation company, we have all the emails stating they were working with the fence owner and the only thing we received was an informal estimate addressed to the fence owner with us as "re: my name and wife's name" I am assuming it means in regards to. The estimate was for $1500.00 - but stated this is only an estimate repairs will be billed time and material.
After researching our options, I saw Illinois had the Home Repair and remodeling act, but excludes landscaping. Which I don't know if this is considered landscaping or plumbing work. Anyway, the owner of the irrigation company sent us an email, stating that... I am writing this email in hopes that I can urge you all to come together to resolve the issue of getting "our company" paid for the services we performed in good faith. I say good faith because we performed work at "my residence" in good faith with the understanding we would be paid in a good and timely manner. Fence owner has committed to pay for the work on behalf of the customer and that "his Insurance" does not have the required information to make payment on the claim. If not resolved by a certain date I am seeking legal action against fence owner and placing a lien on "my residence".
Sorry about the length of the problem, but can they put a lien on my property, even though I did not sign anything. Do I have any rights, if fence owner does not pay, do I have to? What should I Do about this lien. DO I need to contact a lawyer?
Concerned property owner.
1 Answer from Attorneys
From a practical standpoint, a watering system seems to be plumbing, as landscaping commonly refers to planted vegetation and related items. If you had the watering system repaired you owe that bill, and if the fence owner won't "own up" on the added agreement you will probably have to sue under the fence contract. To verify whether your case against the fence owner will be successful, it would be worthwhile having an attorney review the contract.

I am not a market timer, nor have I ever played on television. If I was to ever give you a specific market prediction, you would be well-advised to splay me upon the head and shoulders, then do exactly the opposite of any short-term directional advice I ever give you.
In fact, I think all specific market predictions, including my own, are worthless.
What I am pretty good at is taking note of red flags that indicate we might be getting frothy and overdone to the upside, or a little overly depressed on the downside. These conditions can take months to play out, though, so it's not as much a prediction as it is an indication that it might be time to be fearful or greedy based on the long-term condition of the stock market.
One screen I run on a regular basis looks for large-cap stocks that trade below their tangible book value. In general terms, if 20% or more of the S&P 500 trades below book value, the market is probably getting cheap enough for long-term investors. If it is less than that, it's time to review your portfolio and look for fully valued or overvalued securities in which to take gains and raise cash levels.
Right now, just 6% of the S&P 500 trades below stated book value, and less than 2% of them trade below their tangible book value. So by this measure, only a handful of stocks in the entire universe would qualify for inclusion in a value portfolio right now.
A few interesting companies out there have seen a lot of buying from large-cap value types of late. For instance, it is harder to find a portfolio that doesn't own shares of American International Group (AIG[1]) than one that does. Right now, AIG trades at roughly 75% of book value — and that's after a 40%-plus gain in the past year! Other nattered insurance companies like my favorites Hartford International Group (HIG[2]) and Genworth Financial (GNW[3]) also are cheap compared to book at a respective 79% and 44% of TBV.
The money center and regional banks have staged an impressive rally in the past year, and after hardly being able to turn around without finding a bank stock below book value, only three big banks qualify right now. Bank of America (BAC[4]) and Citigroup (C[5]) might not see the 2007 highs again in my lifetime, but they are seeing better credit conditions as well as active capital markets, and thus have been recovering. I personally refuse to buy them because of my feelings on too big to fail, but other value funds have been accumulating the shares.
Zions Bancorporation (ZION[6]), at 94% of tangible book value, continues to be a credit-improvement and reserve-release story, and might be worth a small stake.
Two companies targeted by the screener dig stuff out of the ground, and that is one of my favorite themes right now. I am long both iron ore producer Cliffs Natural Resources (CLF[7]) and WPX Energy (WPX[8]), an oil and gas E&P firm.
The final stock is First Solar (FSLR[9]), which trades at 93% of book value — however, I am skeptical about the future of solar energy for the next several years.
What I take away from looking at the valuation of large-cap stocks right now is there are only a few stocks worth considering for a long-term value portfolio, and red flags are flying. The opportunity set is getting very thin, and that has always been a sign to start taking a more cautious approach to stocks and reviewing and pruning long-term portfolios.
As of this writing, Tim Melvin was long HIG, WPX and CLF.

I still have alot of questions floating, but since I seem to be the only fox mustang doing an HID conversion I might have to pioneer this myself. I will post my progress in this thread, but I do encourage anyone with any possible experience or insight to post.

Now a major motion picture directed by Tom Ford, starring Amy Adams and Jake Gyllenhaal.
Fifteen years ago, Susan Morrow left her first husband Edward Sheffield. One day, comfortable in her home and her second marriage, she receives - entirely out of the blue - a parcel containing the manuscript of her ex-husband's first novel. He writes asking her to read the book; she was always his best critic, he says. As Susan reads, she is drawn into the fictional life of Tony Hastings, a maths professor driving his family to their summer house in Maine. And as we read along with her, so are we. As the Hastings' ordinary, civilized lives veer disastrously, violently off course, Susan is plunged back into the past, forced to confront the darkness that inhabits her, and driven to name the fear that gnaws at her future.
Tony and Susan is a dazzling achievement: simultaneously a riveting portrayal of the experience of reading and an engrossing thriller, written in startlingly arresting prose. It is also a novel about fear and regret, revenge and aging, marriage and creativity. Absolutely not to be missed.
©1993 Austin Wright (P)2011 Audible Ltd
"Absorbing, terrifying, beautiful and appalling. I loved Tony and Susan and became intensely involved in it. Parts of it shocked me and I am not easily shocked. It is easy to say that something one has read is unforgettable, but this novel I know I never shall forget." (Ruth Rendell)
"A f***king masterpiece. I wish that Wright was still alive so that I could tell him so.... It's going to become a living, breathing, knock-out classic. Astonishing." (M J Hyland)
"dark but well written"
This is a well written book, but the subject matter is far darker than what it appears. I wouldn't recommend it for late night listening.
This is a book within a book. The primary story is of Susan a woman who on the face of things has a good life. The secondary story is one you read along with Susan as she reads a manuscript sent to her by her ex husdand. If the author had just stuck to this secondary story expanding it here and there I think he might have had a decent book but he chose to pad it out with Susan's story instead boo hiss! In any book you have to like the characters and the big revelation about Susan is she's thoughourly unlikeable........that's it. She's a cowardly cheat who would rather live with another cowardly cheat than shift for herself. God I loathed this woman and feel robbed of the time I had to spend listening to her whine.
I thought this was going to be profound etc. but slow
and very uninspiring? listened to the end waiting for
this to pick up.
"What were they called?"
Those sweets with the menthol centre? Lockets? Soothers? Yes that's it. Hard on the out side and a soft soothing nectar released as the exterior melted away. That's what this story reminded me of in two ways. Firstly, it is a story within a story and what a story. A great narrative aligns you with its characters to the point where you believe you know these people, the point where you feel their pain and know their thoughts. This is such a book. Secondly, Lorelei King (Susan) narrates hard and bitter while Peter Marinker's voice gently caresses the ear like honey over fresh toast. So moved by his voice, in future I will be searching for books narrated by him as the number one reason to buy them.
"Tries too hard"
The author attempts to create a relationship between the narrative of the main book, Tony's story, and the reader of the book, Susan. Susan is the ex wife of the author of the book within the book and perhaps regrets her divorce from that author. The book Susan is supposedly reading is moderately interesting - but never really touches our emotions. When the main story gets more interesting, the author deliberately pulls away from the main narrative to explain Susan's relationship with her ex husband (the author) and with her current husband. Austin clearly tried to create a tension between the main narrative which is a thriller and the secondary narrative which is a story of a long term and perhaps unsatisfactory marriage. They are, I think, deliberately unrelated. But because we are constantly being moved from one story to the other, we never care about any of the characters. The experimental aspect of the book is obviously an attempt to create two parallel stories which are completely unrelated - and the author may simply be playing with narrative styles. But the result is boring and terribly unsatisfactory.
It is rare that I find all the characters in a book so annoying and the story so frustrating. In my opinion it would be better if the thoughts of all the characters were less explicit and there was something left to the imagination rather than a painfully slow ramble (listened to at 1.2x speed), through what could be a gripping story.
"Writers and partners don't mix!"
Susan and Edward were divorced a long time ago. Out of the blue, Edward asks Susan to critique his manuscript about Tony, a man driving to Maine with his wife and daughter, who meets tragedy on the lonely night drive there.
The narrators were great, particularly King, who is a favourite of mine anyway! My only gripe is that I didn't really understand the end, so if anybody does, please let me know!
"Clever Idea but ...."
Not sure if it really worked and the ending was a bit of a let down to say the least.
Almost like the entire book was ruined by the author running out of ideas rather than waiting to see if he could think of something a bit more meaty.

hmmmm... Now on this I'm torn. I was hoping for a shoot out that would end this dude's life... I doubt a 19 year old American had much intelligence to offer, it would send a strong message, and because him being alive presents a lot of problems...All the more reason to publicly hang this piece of sh*t. He doesn't deserve to live another minute
Do I want him declared a terrorist and stripped of his rights? No because I don't trust government with that kind of power and who's to say they couldn't turn that tool against you or I. Likewise with the enemy combatant moniker. What if in the near future the government attempts to violate my constitutional right to own guns and claims I am a terrorist or enemy combatant (if there was ever an event that shows the government and law enforcement not being able to protect everyone at all time and at some point you may have to protect yourself...I think this is it)
Nor do I buy the "continued danger" to waive miranda rights argument. Nothing is untraceable....if the government has this much of a "lead" they can find who he has been in contact with. Besides if they do in fact have video evidence of him planting the bomb case closed. Sure they can interrogate him but no Gitmo. If anything we need to look at who we let into our country. Go to Australia and try to stay more than 30 days or become a citizen...not gonna happen. In a country where drone strikes have been authorized for use on Americans IN AMERICA I don't think we want to go down that road of restricting rights or taking away rights of Americans and following that path only plays into the hands of the terrorists to change this great nation of ours.
And as far as the Bush blaming...take a look at your 'golden god' Obama... that dude has supported, continued, and EXPANDED Bush's policies (some he even said he would end) ie torture, black sites, Gitmo, drone strikes, involvement in foreign wars, Patriot Act.

I'm in no way saying that the govt isn't corrupt and dirty. I agree that they do a lot of shady things. I not a rep. or a dem... But sometimes bad people do bad things. And it's pretty obvious that that is what happened here...
People like Chicken and Roy would blame the govt if a terrorist shot a baby in the head right in front of them.

NewYukNewJerky. I can see now why the Irakis chose you area to attack. Not because of your freedoms but because you're a bunch of Buttlickers. I used to try to do my part when you dumbass' come down here to thin the herd.
you don't have any info other than what the gubmint gave the media. some vague vid of 2 guys with backpack. they will use this as another reason to pass some restrictive measures. Look what noin leben did for our air travel. There are doofus' that make you look semi smart(really hard to do) that have the power to grope you. they've harassed vets in wheelchairs fresh from Iraq, babys with dolls and every hot babe that has stepped on a plane since. just wait and watch. they'll quickly pass some law that will take another right away just so YOU(yes you, you fuggin pooswah) can feel safe. I don't need to feel safe. I've almost died many times. and was never saved by the authorities. We're all doomed. you want to go standing up right like a human or cowering like the snake you are?

As you all know currently, the Republicans have actually refused the budget plan, which means that the budget deadline passed and the government no longer have legal right to pay their staff members. The current address from Barrack Obama stated that the military workers would proceed being paid, yet that the veterans and seniors will certainly not obtain their pension checks up until the situation is fixed.
Meaning, as long as the furlough is in effect, more than 700,000 Americans will not get paid which money will be shed forever to them. This is extremely unfortunate, yet the tragic reality is that it can not last for more than 2 weeks.
Why is that?
The most up to date study reveals that 78 % of Americans do not have more than three days of food in the refrigerators and no more than two weeks of saving. That means that then amount of time you will certainly have to depend on your credit card, if you have any kind of, and you will no more have the ability to pay your bills.
This will put your household in a really difficult situation.
My initial reaction when I heard of the updates was to look on the Net for solutions. I have located this website which sounds really appealing. The Family members Survival Team. It provides a huge amount of videos, sources and literature on ways to survive with your household when the government can no longer assist you. Due to the fact that let's not children ourselves, with a federal government closing down, individuals get unpaid leave and the rest don't obtain their pension benefit checks, The united state can fall into mayhem.
If and when that took place, I want to be planned for it, I want to have the expertise to see to it that my household survived this. The solution could not seem terrible to you right now, yet I have individually stayed in battle zone and in various other usas where this occurred. It's not fun, it is actually really taxing, specifically on the youngsters. With personal advantage checks postponed, some people could result to thievery, anarchy and brutality.
If you remember Cyclone Katrina, the federal government was not able to aid for a lot of a lot of weeks in some areas, imagine the same circumstance on a worldwide scale in whole United States. They may help, yet it is not their duty to do so, the duty is yours, you are the one that has to save your family. There is one below that I truly think makes sense, I conserve you the legwork, I invested three hours googling it and that's one of the ideal I saw.
Good luck to us all and God bless America!

Buy and hold strategy works for long-term investor
"Buy and hold." You won't see this phrase screaming out at you from the investment magazines or the multitudes of websites devoted to investing. But you will find those three little words in the vocabulary of the most successful investors.
What, exactly, is a "buy-and-hold" philosophy? Perhaps it can be best understood by looking at what buy-and-hold investors do and what they don't do.
Buy-and-hold investors stick with a group of high-quality securities for the long term and sell these securities only when there is a good reason to do so.
For example, they may decide that a particular stock is no longer appropriate for their holdings, either because the company's management has changed or because consumer attitudes have moved away from the company's product. They may be entering the later years of their retirement and want to shift their portfolio toward more income-oriented investments.
Buy-and-hold investors do not worry about the short-term ups and downs of the market or about what companies are the latest headline-grabbers.
But buy-and-hold isn't as easy to follow as it sounds. Nuy-and-hold investors can panic when the market declines. When prices fall too far, some investors start selling shares.
It also can be tempting to buy new stocks after a long period of market advances. But if you do, you're "buying high" in direct contradiction to the age-old advice of "buy low, sell high."
Start by assessing your investment personality. Are you willing to take on a higher degree of risk in exchange for potentially greater returns, or will you accept a lower return, provided you have the comfort of investing in vehicles that don't fluctuate greatly in value? Learn your risk tolerance and use it as a guiding principle in choosing investments.
Besides making decisions rooted in their investment personalities, buy-and-hold investors typically spread their money among a variety of asset classes, such as stocks, bonds and government securities. Even a relatively "conservative" strategy such as buy-and-hold becomes risky if you're only buying and holding one type of asset. By diversifying your holdings, you'll cushion the effect of downturns affecting just one market segment so you won't feel so pressured into selling your stocks when prices dip.
By following a prudent buy-and-hold strategy, you will avoid some of the consequences of ill-advised efforts to "time" the market or chase after hot stocks. You'll also free yourself from the hassles of constantly checking up on your investments' performance. And if you've chosen good stocks with strong fundamentals, capable management and sold business plans, your prospects for long-term success are favorable.

TOKYO, June 27 (UPI) -- Japan's first shipment of nuclear fuel since the Fukushima crisis of March 2011 arrived early Thursday at the Sea of Japan port of Takahama, officials said.
The mixed uranium-plutonium oxide fuel, intended for reactor number 3 at Kansai Electric Power Co.'s Takahama nuclear plant, is likely to remain in storage for the time being, The Japan Times reported.
Japan's government has yet to approve either the restart of reactors 3 and 4, requested by Kepco under new safety standards, or the use of the MOX fuel in reactor 3.
The fuel shipment, ordered in 2010 and scheduled to have been delivered by summer 2011, but was put on hold after the earthquake and tsunami disaster that crippled the Fukushima facility.
The arrival of the shipment in Japan was greeted by anti-nuclear protesters.
"Kepco does not have permission to restart the Takahama plant," Aileen Mioko Smith of the group Green Action said. "On top of that, there is no post-Fukushima accident regulatory standard for MOX fuel."
