Defender Fabio Cannavaro, left, celebrates Italy's 2-0 victory over Germany with defender Marco Materazzi.
Soccer fan Gino Miserendino celebrates Italy's second goal while watching the match at The Italian American in San Pedro, Calif.
Italy's Francesco Totti, top, is challenged by Germany's Michael Ballack during Tuesday's semifinal game. Totti and his teammates will play the winner of today's Portugal-France match Sunday in the World Cup final.
DORTMUND, Germany — For nearly two hours, Germany probed, Italy held firm and penalty kicks seemed inevitable.
Then with two stunningly swift strikes in the last two minutes, Italy unraveled it all — the tension, the match, the Germans' dream of lifting the World Cup trophy in Berlin.
First came the left-footed shot that Fabio Grosso twisted into the far side of the net in the 119th minute. Then Alessandro del Piero clinched the 2-0 win a minute later with a counterattacking goal as the Germans pressed frantically to equalize.
"Italy deserved to win," Italy coach Marcello Lippi said. "We controlled the play more than Germany did and, in the end, we got these two great goals, which allowed us to avoid the roulette of a penalty shootout."
A good idea, considering Germany historically is masterful at shootouts and the Italians abysmal.
Tuesday's win came as scandal tears apart the national sport back home. But an investigation into match-fixing has not proven a distraction — the Italians keep plowing through soccer's premier event, allowing only a single own-goal in six games.
Now the Italians head to Berlin for Sunday's final in search of their fourth title. They will play the winner of today's Portugal-France match.
Portugal vs. France, 11:55 a.m.
"We have a great group," Grosso said. "We've beaten some very good teams."
Not least Germany, a squad that was supposed to be too young and inexperienced to challenge for this trophy, yet performed superbly.
In handing the Germans their first loss in 15 games at Dortmund, the Azzurri also remained undefeated in five World Cup meetings with Germany — this was their third win to go with two draws. Italy is unbeaten in 24 games since October 2004.
The swift end to this one was stunning. Germany had pressured for the game's last hour and slowly stretched the tight Italian defense.
As Italy tired, Germany captain Michael Ballack directed the attack. The Germans found room where before there was none, creating space — and chances.
In the 63rd minute, Lukas Podolski received the ball with his back to the goal, then turned and fired. Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon parried ball and Arne Friedrich rocketed a rebound shot over the bar.
But by the beginning of extra time, it was Italy threatening, once hitting the post, once the crossbar.
Then, out of nowhere, came the deciding goal.
Italy's reserves rushed onto the field after Grosso took a tap pass from Andrea Pirlo in the box and curled his shot beyond the leaping reach of goalkeeper Jens Lehmann and just inside the post.
With the hosts pushing forward in desperation, the Italians struck again. Del Piero finished with a right-footed blast into the top of the net just before the whistle sounded.
"A game of this type in their home? We really reached a new level tonight," Del Piero said.
It's a level that could win the Italians their first World Cup since 1982. They mobbed each other and rolled around on the field as their fans in a sliver of the stadium jumped in delight, waving flags in ecstasy.
But while the Italians celebrated, the Germans collapsed in dismay.
"It's bitter to lose like that," Germany defender Philipp Lahm said. "We had set ourselves the target of reaching the semifinals, but once you've reached that, you want to go all the way."
The home crowd lingered to cheer their heroes, singing and chanting their names and "Deutschland, Deutschland" after the match. Ballack and several others cried as they left the field after circling it to recognize their flag-waving fans. They were defeated, but unashamed.
"I already told my team in the dressing room that the team has every reason to be proud of themselves," said Germany coach Juergen Klinsmann. "They really achieved amazing things at this World Cup."
They just couldn't finish the Italians, whose technical mastery, particularly on defense, was surpassing.
The Azzurri heads to its first World Cup title game since losing to Brazil in 1994.
"These guys battled from the start and continued throughout," Lippi said, referring as much to the scandal as the win. "It's a great satisfaction. We look forward to next Sunday, whoever we play."
Germany will play in the third-place game Saturday in Stuttgart, hardly where it planned to be.
"The boys are sitting there and have a bitter pill to swallow," Klinsmann said. "It hurts terribly."
In Berlin, the mood was melancholy.
In Dortmund, a few fights broke after the game. Police said they detained 37 people.
"I am not going to sleep tonight, or maybe the next week," said fan Klaus Braun. "I haven't felt this terrible since my parents divorced."
Nearly half an hour after the final whistle, one girl was still lying on the ground next to one of the fan festival's giant screens, sobbing into a German flag as her friends tried to console her.
"I don't have anything against the Italian people — I have no problem with them," Ursel Weber said. "But I'm feeling betrayed because the Germans were the better team in this game."
At Dortmund, Germany
Germany — Jens Lehmann, Arne Friedrich, Per Mertesacker, Chriostoph Metzelder, Philipp Lahm, Bernd Schneider (David Odonkor, 83rd), Sebastian Kehl, Michael Ballack, Tim Borowski (Bastian Schweinsteiger, 73rd), Miroslav Klose (Oliver Neuville, 111th), Lukas Podolski.
Italy — Gianluigi Buffon, Gianluca Zambrotta, Fabio Cannavaro, Marco Materazzi, Fabio Grosso, Mauro Camoranesi (Vicenzo Iaquinta, 91st), Andrea Pirlo, Gennaro Gattuso, Simone Perrotta (Alessandro Del Piero, 104th), Francesco Totti, Luca Toni (Alberto Gilardino, 74th).

In Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you keep your property, but pay back all or a portion of your debts over a three to five-year period. This is unlike Chapter 7 bankruptcy, where most of your debts are cancelled but you may have to surrender some property to the bankruptcy trustee to pay your creditors. Because you end up paying most of your debts over time in Chapter 13 bankruptcy, it is also called reorganization bankruptcy.
Learn the basics of Chapter 13 -- who is eligible, how creditors are paid, and how the Chapter 13 process works.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy isn't for everyone. Because Chapter 13 requires you to use your income to repay some or all of your debt, you'll have to prove to the court that you can afford to meet your payment obligations. If your income is irregular or too low, the court might not allow you to file for Chapter 13.
If your total debt burden is too high, you are also ineligible. Your secured debts cannot exceed $1,184,200 and your unsecured debts cannot be more than $394,725 (as of April 2016). A "secured debt" is one that gives a creditor the right to take a specific item of property (such as your house or car) if you don't pay the debt. An "unsecured debt" (such as a credit card or medical bill) doesn't give the creditor this right.
(For details, see Do You Qualify for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy?)
Before you can file for bankruptcy, you must receive credit counseling from an agency approved by the United States Trustee's office. (For a list of approved agencies, go to the Trustee's website at www.usdoj.gov/ust and click "Credit Counseling and Debtor Education.") These agencies are allowed to charge a fee for their services, but they must provide counseling for free or at reduced rates if you cannot afford to pay.
In addition, you'll have to pay the filing fee and file a packet of forms.
The most important part of your Chapter 13 paperwork will be a repayment plan. Your repayment plan will describe in detail how (and how much) you will pay each of your debts. There is no official form for the plan, but many courts have designed their own forms. (For more on repayment plans, see The Chapter 13 Repayment Plan.)
Your Chapter 13 plan must pay certain debts in full. These debts are called "priority debts," because they're considered sufficiently important to jump to the head of the bankruptcy repayment line. Priority debts include child support and alimony, wages you owe to employees, and certain tax obligations.
In addition, your plan must include your regular payments on secured debts, such as a car loan or mortgage, as well as repayment of any arrearages on the debts (the amount by which you've fallen behind in your payments).
The plan must show that any disposable income you have left after making these required payments will go towards repaying your unsecured debts, such as credit card or medical bills. You don't have to repay these debts in full (or at all, in some cases). You just have to show that you are putting any remaining income towards their repayment.
(Learn more about what debts you repay in Chapter 13 bankruptcy.)
If you're thinking about Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the Chapter 13 Payment Calculator can tell you what the minimum monthly payment might be.
The length of your repayment plan depends on how much you earn and how much you owe. If your average monthly income over the six months prior to the date you filed for bankruptcy is more than the median income for your state, you'll have to propose a five-year plan. If your income is lower than the median, you may propose a three-year plan. (To get the median income figures for your state, go to the United States Trustee's website, www.usdoj.gov/ust, and click "Means Testing Information.") In some instances, below-median debtors will need to extend their plans beyond three years to repay a sufficient amount of debts. Likewise, if an above-median debtor can repay all debts in full in less then five years, then a shorter plan is possible.
If for some reason you cannot finish a Chapter 13 repayment plan -- for example, you lose your job six months into the plan and can't keep up the payments -- the bankruptcy trustee may modify your plan, or the court might let you discharge your debts on the basis of hardship. Examples of hardship would be a sudden plant closing in a one-factory town or a debilitating illness.
If the bankruptcy court won't let you modify your plan or give you a hardship discharge, you might be able to convert to a Chapter 7 bankruptcy or ask the bankruptcy court to dismiss your Chapter 13 bankruptcy case (you would still owe your debts, plus any interest creditors did not charge while your Chapter 13 case was pending).
(Learn more about your options if you can't complete your Chapter 13 plan.)
Once you complete your repayment plan, all remaining debts that are eligible for discharge will be wiped out. Before you can receive a discharge, you must show the court that you are current on your child support and/or alimony obligations and that you have completed a budget counseling course with an agency approved by the United States Trustee.

What is the difference between Decimal, Float and Double in C#? What are the situations that each of these should be used?
decimal is a floating decimal point type.
float and double are floating binary point types.
The main difference is the precision.
Float - 7 digits (32 bit)
Double-15-16 digits (64 bit)
Decimal -28-29 significant digits (128 bit)
Decimals have much higher precision and are usually used within financial applications that require a high degree of accuracy. Decimals are much slower (up to 20X times in some tests) than a double/float.
Decimals and Floats/Doubles cannot be compared without a cast whereas Floats and Doubles can. Decimals also allow the encoding or trailing zeros.
(Extracted answer. Please visit Here for more details.)

Got a call from a family member ... from his wife actually. She explained that his doctor was concerned about the results from his recent blood tests.
"His doctor told us he has pre-diabetes," she said. "Should we worry?"
Sure enough, his lab results confirm the diagnosis of prediabetes: A fasting blood glucose level between 100 and 125. And an A1C test between 5.7 to 6.4.
Numbers higher than these indicate type 2 diabetes. Which explains why this condition is called "prediabetes" — blood sugar (glucose) levels that are too high ... but not yet high enough to be called diabetes.
And yes, he should worry. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, up to half the people with pre-diabetes develop type 2 diabetes within five years.
So how do we stop pre-diabetes from turning into full-fledged type 2 diabetes? The answer comes by way of solid research from a landmark study called the Diabetes Prevention Program.
In this study of people with prediabetes, those who took a medication called metformin reduced their risk for developing diabetes by 31percent. But hold the presses. Those who made changes in their lifestyle reduced their risk by 58percent. And people over the age of 60 who made lifestyle changes lessened their risk for diabetes by a whopping 71percent.
These are the lifestyle changes that helped prevent diabetes in this now-famous study:
· Lose some weight if you are overweight. Even a modest 5 to 10percent weight loss significantly lowered risk.
· Cut the extra fat from your diet. Diabetes risk went down when these people ate not more than a third of their daily calories from fat. Especially cut out saturated fat. Why? Saturated fat contributes to insulin resistance which can lead to diabetes.
· Eat 25 to 35 grams of fiber each day. In other words, a high fiber diet rich in fruit, vegetables, legumes, grains and other plant foods helped to prevent type 2 diabetes.
· Exercise at least 150 minutes every week. Like a potent diabetes medication, moving muscles use up glucose from the blood and improve the action of insulin. Because of how they benefit blood sugar levels and the body's use of insulin, exercise and weight loss are extremely effective in treating pre-diabetes, says endocrinologist James Chu, medical director of Community Hospital of Monterey Bay's diabetes program.
And the best diet to prevent diabetes? "The new hot thing is balance," says registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator Marilyn Uwate.
What a novel idea. And with an estimated 1 of every 3 people in the United States now with pre-diabetes, we might want to take this a bit seriously.
Beginning Jan. 29, Community Hospital will offer the complete National Diabetes Prevention Program to adults with pre-diabetes who wish to lose weight and save themselves the consequences of type 2 diabetes. Call 649-7220 for more information. It's a worthwhile call to make.

Leveraging Comtech Telecommunications' world-class LBS solution to track the location of mobile phones, Look4 is ideal for any third-party developer, OEM, or operator. The Look4 platform allows developers to quickly integrate comprehensive, market-leading search and voice guided turn-by-turn navigation functionality seamlessly into their mobile and embedded applications.
These search capabilities leverage real-time enhanced content to allow users to see their current location and find places to eat, shop, visit and more. In addition, it provides easy-to-use single search box, with auto-completion and search suggestions. Real-time enhanced content means that when searching for gas stations, it will also show the price per gallon that each station is offering; when searching for movie theaters, it will show the listings and show times.

These are processed simultaneously using on-device and cloud-based stores of reference information to determine a device's location within a few meters, both horizontally and vertically. These sensor datum are processed in conjunction with GPS data, filling in the gaps when GPS is partially obstructed or unavailable.
The result is that with Look4's patented sensor fusion technology, accurate location fixes can b obtained with or without a GPS signal, offering both indoor and outdoor location fixes. All with the power consumption 20% of a typical GPS based system. In addition, the Look4 location vector tells your application the devices current bearing, velocity, altitude, ambient temperature and current lat/long.

Mega Menus: SEO Concerns and Usability Pros and Cons (Intro),
After a much-mentioned article by Jakob Nielsen, "mega menus" became all the rage, but there are some serious issues to consider before diving in. The can create serious usability issues and negatively impact your site information architecture and, ultimately how you are found, ranked and categorized by the search engines.
Usability Advantages and Disadvantages of Mega Menus (Mega Menus Part 1),
Mega menus have been heralded as a usability enhancement, but they can also result in serious usability challenges. It's not a simple yes or no. It's quite easy to end up with navigation that is difficult, occasionally impossible, for the user to actually navigate.
Mega Menus and SEO Concerns and Solutions (Mega Menus Part 2),
Search engines have made a lot of progress in terms of figuring out what your page is about, but large numbers of navigation links muddy the signal you send to the search engines, both about your page and about the rest of your site. There are lots of possible solutions, but the real solution is getting the information architecture right.

Typographic Circle supplements
The Brief
As a supplement to it's magazine, Circular, The Circle wish to produce a series of special books/
publications on specific people who have given talks for The Circle. Pentagram D&AD brief.
The Typographic Circle is a known social organisation and my concept is based on this characteristic.
The focus is conversation between the audience and the designer. The supplements typographically
represent the designer's tone of voice, emotion and pace. The use of layers also communicate the
designer revealing their personality to the audience.
Thank You!

Hospice is a philosophy of care that recognizes death as the final stage of life and seeks to enable patients to continue an alert, pain-free life and to manage other symptoms so that their last days may be spent with dignity and quality, surrounded by their loved ones.
Hospice affirms life and does not hasten or postpone death. Hospice care treats the person rather than the disease; it highlights quality rather than length of life. It provides family-centered care, involving the patient and family in the decision-making process. Care is provided for the patient and family 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Hospice care can be given in the patient's home, hospital, nursing home, or private hospice facility. Hospice is not a place, it is a service.
What services are provided under Hospice Care? Our hospice services focus on all aspects of a patient's well-being, including physical, emotional, social, and spiritual care, guided by a highly skilled team that includes nurses, social workers, and chaplains. This team of professionals takes the holistic approach of providing care, by keeping the patient comfortable physically, spiritually, and emotionally.
When is Hospice care appropriate?
Any disease with a prognosis of 6 months or less, is qualified to receive hospice services. We care for and have expertise in the care of patients with many life-limiting illnesses and conditions, including but not limited to:
- Alzheimer's Disease/Dementia
- ALS, also known as "Lou Gehrig's Disease"
- Cancer
- Cardiomyopathy
- Congestive Heart Failure
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
- Emphysema
- Heart Disease
- Liver Disease
- Renal or Respiratory/Pulmonary Disease (end stage)
- Stroke/CVA (Cerebral Vascular Accident)
How to pay for Hospice services
Most people who use hospice care are over age 65 and are entitled to the Medicare Hospice Benefit. This benefit covers virtually all hospice services and requires little, if any, out-of-pocket costs. Hospice services are also covered by Medicaid and most insurance companies. Medicaid is an assistance program funded jointly by the federal and state governments and administered by individual states. Medicaid sends payments directly to your health care providers.
We also recommend our neighboring hospice care in-patient facility, located adjacent to Christian City: www.swchristiancare.org

Being a parent is hard.
Being a single parent is harder.
Being a single parent made to feel guilty about that status is cruel.
I've written in this space before about the challenges big and small of being a single parent.
But with the presidential election campaign in its final weeks, the celebration of the American nuclear family that played out at the Democratic and Republican conventions and now on the campaign trail is unintentionally (I assume) excluding more than 10 percent of the country's population.
You see, according to a Census Bureau report from December 2011, almost 36 million Americans live in single-parent homes. The breakdown of that is 13.7 million parents raising 22 million children. And because only the parents can vote, maybe there's a sense that these voters can be marginalized with few political repercussions.
But not without emotional ones.
When Michelle Obama delivered her moving speech at the Democratic convention earlier this month, she offered up what amounted to a love letter to fathers. She spoke of her father's struggle with multiple sclerosis: "But every morning, I watched my father wake up with a smile, grab his walker, prop himself up against the bathroom sink, and slowly shave and button his uniform." Because, she explained , going to work to take care of his family was "what it meant to be a man."
She went on to describe her husband's role as dad-in-chief to Sasha and Malia "patiently answering their questions about issues in the news, and strategizing about middle school friendships."
And when that beautiful family took to the stage on the last night of the convention, Dad and daughter Sasha could be seen sharing a private joke that made me, at least, believe it's all true.
Michelle Obama's speech prompted colleague Kathleen Parker, who leans conservative, to describe it as "perfection." Parker's takeaway: "It was that being a man means taking care of your family. It means showing up and being there. It means that children need a father."
For millions of children in this country, that's a need that cannot be met. And even when single parents intellectually realize that they're doing the best they can, they are racked by a sense of failure. On a daily basis, we are reminded that, to much of the traditional family world, we are invisible.
So the girl whose father has died still gets an invitation to the "Father/Daughter Dance." Paperwork from school comes home with a notation: "Must be signed by both parents." "You and your parents are cordially invited to the convocation where you will be recognized for your academic excellence."
Is the model of family as shown by the Romney and Obama families the one most of us wish all children in this country could experience — that is, being loved and supported by two loving parents (regardless of their gender)? Absolutely.
But to parents who lay awake at night worrying alone about their kids, with no partner to bounce ideas off, I would remind them that the political landscape in 2012 provides a testament to the power of the single parent.
What do Barack Obama, Julian and Joaquin Castro and Paul Ryan all have in common?
Single moms.
Grant, the editor of KidsPost, writes about parenting issues every other week.

When a band goes from one-man to all hands, you have to hope that the spirit of the music will remain the same. The addition of Adam Egerdahl, Judd Hildreth, P.A. Corts, and Erik Dahl deepened the previously sparse sounds of Andy Flynn's solo compositions to create a deep and powerful sound in their follow-up All These Long Drives.
Song performed: "[Untitled]," "Stay up Late," and "The Stroll."

Never mind the fact that there's no such thing as a "Palestinian" then or now.
BILL MAHER: You are allowed to have your opinion. You're allowed to have your opinion that a Palestinian 2000 years ago walked on water and did magic tricks and he was really still his own father and all that stuff. That's fine. You can have whatever opinion you want, and the fact that a billion other people believe it gives you a lot of strength and credence. But I also have the opinion that that's ridiculous, that it's anachronistic, this is the 21st century.

Album Rating: 4.0I was sitting here listening to this and I just had to write something up for it. My philosophical throught pattern is thrown in per usual; it's becoming an aspect of my writing style.
Album Rating: 4.5People are probably going to bitch that there are too many reviews for this. That said, this is an excellent review, so have a pos. I'm not as into this album as most people, but I respect Sufjan for pushing boundaries.
Album Rating: 4.0I've said it before and I'll say it again: I write for me, not for the website. I just like to share. And yeah, there's definitely a couple of tracks that drag, which is why this received a four, but the overall theme is excellent. Also, thanks.
Short and to the point Defeater, nice review. Pos
Album Rating: 4.5I've said it before and I'll say it again: I write for me, not for the website.
This is definitely the best way to approach writing reviews, or anything for that matter, I was just stating the obvious though. I still enjoy listening to this on occasion, and "Vesuvius" simply never stales. I wonder where Sufjan will go from here.
Album Rating: 4.0Cheers IpodMastery.
I wonder where Sufjan will go from here.
Well to please others you must first, please yourself.
Album Rating: 4.5" he never produced anything that was, in a nutshell, a completely full-fledged electronic album."
ever heard of Enjoy Your Rabbit?
but except for the small insult to my Sufjan geekdom, this is exactly how short reviews should be written. Excellent write.
Album Rating: 3.5ya but you had this at a 5
i feel betrayed
Album Rating: 4.0It hasn't been a five for me in a long time. I do like it when albums hit me like this though.
Impossible Soul makes this album way too long, but it's still really great.
Album Rating: 4.5The first 8 and closing 3 minutes of that song are excellent, but it kind of drags around the middle point.
Album Rating: 4.0The ten minute mark is my favorite part of that song.
Stupid man, in the window.
a perfect short review...
this is like the indie rock/pop version of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. can't believe how many people left it off their 'best of' lists.
Album Rating: 4.0Impossible Soul drags but that 'do....you want to be af-raidddd?' and 'don't be distracted' section is brilliant stuff. Most of the album is really good though.
I also love how polarising it seemed to be (I don't have any of his other albums). I read alot of stuff where people were like "oh I like Futile Devices and the last three minutes of Impossible Soul but the rest was ughhh. Electronics! Gross!"
Album Rating: 4.0
a perfect short review...
I also love how polarising it seemed to be (I don't have any of his other albums).
Album Rating: 4.5I've always liked short and concise reviews better than the overly long shit a lot of people put out there. Review was great. Pos.
Album Rating: 4.0Thanks dude. I like giving the overall sound of an album instead of pinpointing specific portions. It isn't as enjoyable going into an album when you know exactly what's going to happen.
This is a really good review, man. Don't think I've read anything of yours before, but I enjoyed this a lot.
In terms of feedback? You miss a couple of opportunities to be clever in the first paragraph - not that it's an objective fault, just something that tripped me up. You mention "impossible" in the first line, then again in the second - you could stylistically link the two by saying "It's almost impossible..." and later perhaps "This is only possible because..." These ideas aren't even problems, it's just a bit of extroverted wordplay to get around the repetition.
The subject "It" in the second line of your second paragraph is ambiguous. It's not 100% clear on the first time of reading what "It" is: human condition/songwriting (both from the previous paragraph) or sincerity & honesty (which you only introduce after the fact). It's minor but it interrupts the flow slightly. You could solve it by ending that sentence with a colon or semi-colon (either works, weirdly) and leading into the following sentence.
Lyrically, everything is fairly general in nature but incredibly encouraging within the realm of the self and outside relationships. Basically, go be yourself, go for the girl, and find exactly what you're looking for.
This bit is a little bit difficult to read. I think you mean "abstract" rather than "general" (as opposed to "concrete", yeah?) and the phrase "outside relationships" is confusing following "within" because "outside" seems at first a preposition rather than part of the noun phrase. "External relationships" might work better?
I love how you link Sufjan's lyrical slant back to his successful strategy at the end - it's really effective, one of my favourite techniques when reviewing.
I just wrote shitloads but I only made like 2 very fucking stupid points, review is awesome, I pos'd.

Sometimes a problem is solved by sweating the details until a solution is reached. A solution so elegant that it appears to be the only possible answer to the problem. A solution so thoroughly worked through that it seems effortless.
Other times, the designer will think of something, grab the first parts that comes to hand and call it good. The solution might work, but it won't be getting stocked at the Apple Store any time soon. The Clutch is one such solution.

Thank goodness for a devastating freeze in Washington in 1949. Harold Fogle had just been hired by Washington State University to develop new varieties of peaches and nectarines, but that winter's freeze destroyed the university's entire tree stock. With nothing to do, Fogle decided to try his hand at cherries, crossing a Bing with another red variety, a Van. He named the beautiful results after Mount Rainier.
The Rainier takes a lot of extra care to grow. Most growers lose at least 25 percent of their crop to birds. Heat takes a toll: Each day above 95 degrees decreases the shelf life of these cherries. And the fruit is so delicate, they must be plucked by the stem and gently placed in the harvest bucket to prevent bruising. If you see brown discoloration on the skin, it's actually sugar coming to the surface. The Rainier has about 30 percent more sugar than a Bing.
Rainiers are arriving in markets now from the San Joaquin Valley, with growers in Washington ready to join in. Because of the extra care they take, Rainiers tend to be expensive. Expect to pay $3.99 to $4.99 per pound.
Michael Marks is the marketing manager for FreshPoint.

Tips: This 50-50 cross between a peach and a nectarine offers the best of both delicious summer fruits: the nectarine's firmer flesh and reduced fuzz factor and the peach's old-fashioned flavor and sweetness.

Tips: Berries are one of the most delicate fruits sold. They grow fast — and spoil fast, too. Buy them today, eat them tonight.
69 to 89 cents per pound
Tips: These new crop potatoes have great color. Keep these spuds refrigerated, or they will dehydrate and get rubbery very quickly.

Comments about Andre Garcia 4 Finger Brown Lizard Pattern Leather Case:
Aside from cedar lining separating, I love the look and has a great seal. DO NOT TRY TO PUT THREE CHURCHHILLS IN IT, IT, WILL MAKE THE CASE ROLL OVER AND CRUSH. Great for ring size and I am only giving the three stars do to the cedar lining separating. It's still usable and I'm getting my money's worth

It's HD1x8: Ray Donovan Episode 8 Watch Online Free Adam Reed-voiced, wheelchair user Ray Gillette who opens this episode with the characteristic loathing for his own existence and the fact that his legs don't work anymore thanks to being maimed by one Sterling Archer, the man now parked in ISIS' sole disabled parking space. It's the turn of disability to come under fire this week for Archer's opening scene when Ray's fellow ISIS employees show him little sympathy.
HD1x8: Ray Donovan Episode 8 Watch Online Free from Doctor Krieger, who offers Ray an attractive, if somewhat dangerous opportunity to try out his newly developed robot legs. We'd not seen much of Krieger so far this season (apart from continuously suggesting that nerve gas be unleashed into the ISIS air vents, which seems to be becoming a recurring idea as he mentions it again this week), and had perhaps forgotten just how risqu� the show can become when he's around. We're well used to Archer's characters having their irrationally selfish ways, however Krieger can be downright disturbing but often very funny with it.
HD1x8: Ray Donovan Episode 8 Watch Online Free 's surgery, which seems not dissimilar to a Doctor Who cyber conversion, is ably assisted by his attendees, who turn out to be a beer-drinking, taco-eating Pam, and Cheryl, who has been despatched to the armoury to retrieve a bunch of stuff that she's convinced Krieger has made up � a fact that blows her mind. There's a welcome return this week for Rodney � the armoury guy, who continues to flaunt his new-found power to refuse weapons to ISIS agents, and some great banter between him and the forever frustrated Lana Kane. We also get a blink and you'll miss it return from season one's rogue agent Conway, and the answer as to what happened with his missing arm after it was torn off in a helicopter getaway.

I have used these on a few lucky subs. I know how to drop down and past the pubic bone to reach the prostate which feels amazing to them.
This is a set that you must know how to use correctly, but exceeds expectations when in skilled hands. Never push or force, gravity alone will guide these.

ESET Scores High in VB100 Comparative Review on Windows 7 Pro
ESET, the global leader in proactive digital protection with a record of 10 years in consecutive VB100 awards with its ESET NOD32 technology, has earned another VB100 Award, already 81st, from Virus Bulletin, UK-based independent security software testing authority. Its product ESET NOD32 Antivirus 6 scored high in all categories of the latest test on Windows 7 Pro OS. In addition, ESET research teams will have a strong presence at the VB 2013 Conference starting today in Berlin, including Andrew Lee, CEO ESET North America, opening with a keynote speech titled Ethics and the AV industry in the age of WikiLeaks.
In its latest August comparative review, Virus Bulletin has called ESET a "provider with a flawless record" and refered to ESET NOD32 Antivirus 6 as "simple to install", "very speedy updates" "combining unfussy good looks with comprehensive finetuning controls". And VB continues: "ESET adds another VB100 award to its tally, maintaining its 100% pass record going back over a decade". ESET NOD32 technology has received more VB100 awards than any other AV software vendor on the market.
From October 2 until October 4, 2013, ESET researchers are taking part and presenting at the Virus Bulletin 2013 Conference in Berlin with Andrew Lee, CEO ESET North America, delivering a keynote speech.
"The events of the last few years from Bradley Manning to Edward Snowden have brought with them a tranche of new ethical issues. On the one hand the 'old-school' approach is to see malware, detect malware, but it is increasingly likely that in future (if not already) companies will come under pressure from government agencies and perhaps be compelled by law, to avoid detection, disclose data or report on customer activity. Is there a need for a collective response from the industry?," states Andrew Lee in his conference abstract which highlights the content and philosophy of his address. "What are the issues around trusting sample or vulnerability sharing with companies known to share (or to be compelled to share) such information with governments?," continues CEO of ESET North America. In his keynote speech, Andrew Lee aims not to provide definitive answers, but tries to open a wider conversation by examining some of the issues and asking the relevant questions.
In addition, ESET researchers are presenting the following papers:
- What can Big Data Security learn from the AV industry? – Stephen Cobb, ESET Security Evangelist, ESET Malware Researcher, delivers paper, where he examines the history of pioneering threat data, exchanged over time between competing vendors, private enterprises, public institutions, and non-governmental organizations, sharing of lessons that can inform the evolution of Big Data Security. Big Data Security is this year's hot information security concept, a key element encompassing the use of shared threat data, along with internal data, to detect and mitigate threats to information systems.
- The Real Time Threat List – in this presenatation the authors, Righard Zwienenberg, ESET Senior Research Fellow, Richard Ford from the Florida Institute of Technology, and Thomas Wegele from Avira, explore the shortcomings of the WildList, and introduce their solution, the Real Time Threat List (RTTL).
- ACAD/Medre: industrial espionage in Latin America? - Robert Lipovsky, ESET Security Intelligence Team Leader and Sebastian Bortnik, ESET Latin America Education & Research Manager will showcase the investigation of a series of events of an impactful ACAD/Medre, a signature created for a piece of malware attacking the popular design software.
- Mac hacking: the way to better testing? – ESET Research Fellow David Harley with ESET Security Researcher Lysa Myers will elaborate on Mac security: Macs have fewer threats and there are fewer prior tests on which to base a testing methodology, so establishing sound mainstream testing is tricky. But as both Macs and Mac malware increase in prevalence, the importance of testing the software intended to supplement the internal security of OS X increases too. Their paper looks to examine the testing scenarios that are unique to Macs and OS X, and offers some possibilities for ways to create a test that is both relevant and fair.

Like a Hamster on a Wheel.
Joel's comparison of Ajax today/tomorrow with the DOS-Windows transition is a good one (except for remembering all that stuff as it happened, which reminds me yet again I'm too old to be doing this). It's also yet another reminder of how little the whole field of software development truly evolves - three steps forward, two steps back. Not so much in terms of individual technologies of course, but in terms of our ability (and the effort required) to create software to solve problems.

DUNEDIN, FLA. - It's hard to know just how much stock to put into springtime baseball impressions. With the Blue Jays, it is especially so, given how badly everybody misjudged the 2013 version.
That failure has, of course, led the cynical to believe that the 2014 team will be a carbon copy of the outfit that soiled itself so badly in 2013. Maybe the skeptics will be right and the whole house of cards will cave in on itself.
The Blue Jays themselves believe otherwise. They think that with a little luck on the injury front, they can turn last year's chicken feathers into chicken soup.
Here are nine snapshots from the first three weeks of training camp that might just give them hope that they are right.

Michael Douglas accepted the award for lead actor in a miniseries or movie at Sunday night's Emmy Awards for his role as Liberace on HBO's biopic "Behind the Candelabra". The actor, 68, made a surprising and memorable speech as he clutched his glittering statuette. He immediately honored Matt Damon, who plays his love interest in the show. Watch the whole thing:
Douglas joked, "Matt, you're only as good... as your other half...This is a two-hander and Matt, you're only as good as your other hand," Douglas went on to say, while pointing to the statuette, "Matt, you deserve half of this. You want the bottom or the top?"
Then things got serious quickly. He thanked his wife of 13 years, Catherine Zeta-Jones, which was a sweet surprise since the two recently announced that they were separating to re-evaluate their relationship. While Zeta-Jones didn't accompany him, he was still wearing his wedding ring. Maybe there's hope for those two silly kids yet.
He also praised the script for "Behind the Candelabra" as one of the best he's ever seen and gushed over director Steven Soderbergh and his hard work on the show, for which Soderbergh also snatched an Emmy.
Douglas didn't leave out his children, including the troubled Cameron Douglas, who is currently serving time for a drug sentence. "And a shout-out to my oldest son Cameron, but hopefully I'll be able to see him soon," Douglas said.
Later on, backstage, he revealed a little more about the status of his marriage to Zeta-Jones, telling "Entertainment Tonight's" Nancy O'Dell, "Everybody is fine. Nothing really more to say. We were just taking a little break. We're talking. I think everything will be fine and I'm very hopeful."

Recuperating from an appendectomy at the age of 19, Linnea Fransson of East Orange, N. J. was told by the doctor to eat what she liked. What she liked was candy, lemonade, ginger ale. She ate nothing else. She left business school, retreated to her home, sucked lollipops to her heart's content. When she began suffering from starvation, doctors at Orange Memorial Hospital tried in vain to give Linnea tube feedings and intravenous injections. For a while they persuaded her to eat an apple a day, and half a teaspoonful of raw, grated vegetables. But anything besides her candystore diet made...

Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer
This three-in-one restructuring deal for Invensys saved the automation and controls group from certain demise. To repair a balance sheet groaning with debt, much of which was just about to mature, a £2.7bn package was constructed, including an open offer, a bond issue and a syndicated bank facility. Freshfields' team, led by finance partner Edward Evans and corporate partner Ben Spiers, had a race against time to help put together the three inter-conditional strands to the refinancing within a two-month period.
Fried Frank Harris Shriver & Jacobson
Fried Frank was plunged in at the deep end on its first corporate deal for NTL. It arranged a $1.4bn (£764.2m) rights issue, the year's largest US Securities and Exchange Commission equity offering by a European company, and one of the biggest capital-raising exercises of a company with a primary US listing, over the past decade. With just a matter of weeks to get to know the intricacies of NTL, Fried Frank's transatlantic team, led by restructuring group head Brad Eric Scheler and corporate partner Jeffrey Bagner, pulled it off. The firm was also heavily involved in the subsequent notes offering, including an innovative debt structure allowing NTL, through the ring-fencing of the company's mast business, wider flexibility for future capitalisation.
Hammonds' concerted push into Europe over the past three years enabled the firm to complete the joint acquisition of Germany's Grundig. Following Grundig's insolvency last year, Hammonds, on behalf of the UK's Alba and Turkey's Beko Elektronik, was charged with negotiating with administrators across 14 jurisdictions. The year-long transaction required Hammonds to deal with a plethora of separate inter-creditor agreements while helping its clients to edge closer to the final purchase. Thrown in for good measure was a range of antitrust hurdles that the nine-strong team, led by Birmingham-based corporate partner David Hull, overcame, achieving clearance for the e90m (£59.6m) deal.
A triumphant turn by Norton Rose saw the firm handle one of the most complex reorganisations of 2003. The restructuring of Drax's seemingly insurmountable £1.3bn debt mountain involved corporate partners Laurence Levy and Mark Bankes's team negotiating with a huge number of different parties to satisfy each of their interests. As a former adviser to the company, Norton Rose re-entered the fray in August just days before US parent company AES Corp exited the already advanced transaction. With the end of 2003 slated as the completion date, Norton Rose worked to finalise the scheme of arrangement, in between which the firm managed an ultimately failed auction to put in place a deal which saved the investors and the company itself.
Travers Smith Braithwaite
In a deal that defies categorisation, Travers' role as adviser to the UK settlement agency CRESTCo exemplified its cross-practice strengths in corporate, finance, contractual, regulatory and legislative law. Travers drove CRESTCo's transition from a century-old, paper-based money market to an electronic-based system trading in short-term bonds in just four years. Given the size of the transaction, Travers' team comprised just five lawyers, led by partner Mark Evans, who dematerialised a money market worth £160bn annually. Following consultations with the Treasury and various City regulators, Travers executed the final stage of the deal, the migration of paper to electronic securities, in four 'mini-bang' phases at the end of 2003.
It would be easy to assume that, after acting for private equity-backed directories business Yell on its first abortive flotation in 2002, a second attempt would be a breeze. Not so. For Weil Gotshal's London office the second trip to the London Stock Exchange for Yell involved not only the £2bn float, but a complete restructuring of the company and a refinancing, which were all completed in just three and a half weeks. A core team of 25 Weil Gotshal lawyers undertook the restructuring, which involved dealing with complex tax issues in three jurisdictions, spanning the UK, the US and Germany. The result? Renewed confidence for private equity houses to exit investments via a stock exchange.

Follow the money.
That's what jurors are being asked to do at the corruption trial of Rod Blagojevich, with more government witnesses expected to take the stand Thursday who prosecutors believe will link the former Illinois governor to shady money deals during his tenure.
One-time political insider Joseph Cari, who has pleaded guilty in an attempted extortion case and is awaiting sentencing, is expected to resume his testimony.
In complex but potentially crucial testimony on Wednesday, prosecution witnesses described a mechanism of multiple transfers and deposits that allegedly involved Blagojevich's inner circle.
A colorful chart - complete with arrows, dates and cash figures - was superimposed on a courtroom screen as prosecutors continued to lay the groundwork for arguments that could drag on for several months.
The evidence amounted to lots of dots, but prosecutors stopped short Wednesday of connecting them directly to Blagojevich. His name did not appear on the graphic display, though former fundraisers Christopher Kelly and Tony Rezko did.
Some jurors seemed to strain to follow the testimony, some yawning, their hands pressed against their cheeks, with even some defense attorneys appearing to tire and shut their eyes for several minutes.
On Wednesday, Cari described a meeting on a private jet where then-Gov. Blagojevich asked about having Cari work as a fundraiser. Blagojevich also expressed interest in running for higher office, Cari testified.
"He said he had aspirations to run for president someday," Cari said. Blagojevich also told him that governors were in a better position to raise campaign cash because that can solicit money from businesses with state contracts, Cari added.
Blagojevich has pleaded not guilty to trying to get a payoff such as a high-paying job or a big campaign contribution in return for the appointment to the U.S. Senate seat Barack Obama gave up after his election as president. He has also pleaded not guilty to plotting to use the powers of the governor's office to launch a racketeering scheme.
Internal Revenue Service investigator Shari Schindler testified that she traced money from a lobbyist who made a huge commission from the 2003 sale of $10 billion in state bonds through another businessman to Blagojevich's two key fundraisers and advisers.
Prosecutors focused on $600,000 that businessman Joseph Aramanda, a longtime friend of Rezko, received from prominent Springfield lobbyist Robert Kjellander.
Kjellander received an $809,000 commission when Blagojevich and members of his inner circle picked the company he represented, Bear Stearns, as lead underwriter in the bond sale. Schindler said that in October 2003, about three months after the sale, Kjellander transferred $600,000 to Aramanda.
Prosecutors say the transfer was one element in a kickback scheme. Kjellander hasn't been accused of wrongdoing.
Aramanda testified that the money was a loan arranged by Rezko to help prop up his ailing pizza restaurants. But he acknowledged that on Rezko's orders he immediately sent most of the money to a group of Rezko associates.
Schindler testified that two of those associates then sent large amounts to companies operated by Rezko and some money then flowed to Kelly. She said no money was traced directly to Blagojevich but that his wife, Patti, got the first of several $12,000 checks from Rezko's real estate business soon after Armanda got his money.
Rezko is awaiting sentencing after being convicted of launching a $7 million kickback scheme.
If convicted, Blagojevich could face up to $6 million in fines and a sentence of 415 years in prison, although he is certain to get much less under federal guidelines.
The former governor's brother, businessman Robert Blagojevich, 54, of Nashville, Tenn., has pleaded not guilty to taking part in the alleged scheme to sell the Senate seat and scheming to squeeze a racetrack owner for a $100,000 campaign contribution.

Amid the success Mark Burnett and Roma Downey had with "The Bible" miniseries last year came the major controversy over the claim that Satan, played by actor Mohamen Mehdi Ouazan, looked just like President Barack Obama.
Downey told TheBlaze Thursday that the controversy over the devil was a distraction that took attention away from the power of "The Bible" — a media furor that she believes was the direct result of spiritual warfare.
So, she decided to remove Satan entirely from "Son of God," the couple's new film that heads to the big screen Feb. 28.
Downey, who appeared in the popular 90s TV show "Touched By an Angel," said she was disappointed, disheartened and surprised over the media coverage that broke out after comparisons were made between Satan and Obama.
"It was the third week of 'The Bible' series when Jesus finally appeared. There was great excitement that Jesus was coming — trailers and talk shows and even Twitter was buzzing with anticipation," she said. "So Jesus came onto the screen and people went wild. He was beautiful and strong and kind and compassionate — everything we hoped for."
But the Devil also appeared in that episode, sparking the subsequent controversy that she believes took away from some of the positivity she had hoped the series would bring. Downey said "the media went nuts" and the story quickly went viral.
"It was all over TV and all over the Internet and that next day, when I was sure everyone would be only talking about Jesus, they were all talking about Satan instead," Downey said. "I was saddened. It was really disappointing, because it became such a distraction and then it became ugly and people were making such nasty statements."
The actress, who plays Jesus' mother, Mary, in the series and the film, said that the controversy was reminiscent of the true character of Satan.
"I knew it was just like Satan the narcissist to make it all about him and create division," she said. "I am sure Satan loved being the center of attention for a day."
Following the controversy, Downey and Burnett decided that putting Satan into the film probably wasn't the best path forward. She told TheBlaze that she wanted "Son of God" to focus intensely on Jesus and nothing else.
"I want the name of Jesus to be on the lips of everyone who sees this movie, so I cast Satan out," she quipped, noting that the film gives Satan no more attention. "It absolutely gives me great pleasure to tell you that the devil is on the cutting room floor."
Watch the trailer for "Son of God" below:
Despite the controversy, Downey said that "darkness is no match for the light."
