|Hello fellow WoWahollics
Realm Of Ódin is an late night raiding guild, designed by and for the people who have real life obligations and responsibilities, thus preventing them from raiding at earlier evening hours. At the same time, we are well known for our beliefs that this game isn`t designed to be an rocket science, but the normal hobbie for ordinary people. Now, one can say that the fast reflexes, deep knowledge about all classes in game and a mobile toillete used by a dedicated raider who doesn`t want to move away from his/hers PC are good things that can amplify your game enjoyment, and no doubt, we agree. If the last sentence didn`t bring smile on your face, but the burning wish to tell me how leet you are, and how noobish this text is going to become, do yourself a favor and read no further, we are pretty sure Desolace isn`t a place for you. However, if you found yourself enough interested in so far, keep reading, this might be the answer for your questions.
Realm Of Ódin is raiding Firelands 10 men raiding content 4 times a week, starting from 22:00 server time, and finishing at 01:00 server time as well. We are actually lucky combination of some players from the weird -2 GMT zone (those are the ones who can see the polar bears out of the windows of their bedrooms), and some players who`ll never see polar bears, but have their little polar bears in their houses, making them impossible to raid earlier. As such, we are looking for the players who can fulfill following requirements :
- You are aware of your role in the raids, and you know how to make the things go round
- You consider yourself a person who wouldn`t even think of applying to the raiding guild without getting your gear gemmed, enchanted, and of course, properly itemised
- You have either done the current raiding encounters, or possess knowledge about them, thus making the questions like "Magmatron ? Who the hell is Magmatron ?" irrelevant – actually, you would be surprised how many people in this game even doesn`t want to read few articles about boss fights they will encounter that very evening, so surprise us, you don`t need to have the achievment, but you still need to perform on the acceptable level.
- You know that the fire under your feet IS not the good things, thus you move out of it asap. Same goes for the green goo
- In one word : http://www.darklegacycomics.com/152.html
Our current progress is 1/7, and we are hopeing we`ll finish normal content very soon, starting to work slowly towards HC bosses. For the moment being, we are in dire need for one resto shaman, one fury warrior, one balance druid and one DPS deathknight + Destruction Warlock. This, however, doesn`t mean that if you play other classes and consider yourself a nice aset to our guild, you don`t need to come to us and play with us. Au contrary, we cherish good players and nice persons above everything else, so please do not hesitate to contact us on our beloved Twisting Nether server, in game or on our forums http://www.desolace.enjin.com . You can ask for Xtremez, our beloved GM, Sprelli, his right hand, or Ommadawn, his left hand – we will be happy to answer any additional questions you might have.
Stay cool and enjoy the game, hopeing to seeing you soon in the wonderful world of Azeroth,
Sincerelly yours,

- Monaco Grand Prix - FP2
Alonso not pushing at 100%

- Monaco Grand Prix

- Ferrari
Fernando Alonso says he has not been pushing at 100% during Thursday practice for the Monaco Grand Prix.
While Nico Rosberg set the pace in both practice sessions, Alonso was a very close second in FP1 and set the third fastest time in FP2. With no unforeseen problems encountered by Ferrari during either session, Alonso said he was just pleased to avoid any major issues and would not push the car to its limit until Saturday.
"It's always nice driving at Monaco, even if it's very demanding, because here more than anywhere, you need to do a lot of running to adapt to the track and, in more general terms, get used to a very special race," Alonso said. "I am pleased that we managed to get through all our planned programme today, which can't always be taken for granted here as anything can happen!
"Even if the feelings are positive and we got through the day without any problems whatsoever, we still don't have a clear idea of the pecking order in the field. We will have to wait a bit to see where all our rivals really are, because here too, until Saturday, no one pushes a hundred percent: the barriers constitute too high a threat to take risks in the first free practice sessions."
Alonso added that he didn't find anything unexpected with regards to the tyre performance.
"There's not much time to do a tyre comparison here, we did only one and the results didn't throw up any surprises: the Super Softs are a bit quicker and degrade more. All that remains now is to spend all the available time analysing the data we have gathered to try and find the best strategy for qualifying and the race."

Gov. Jim Gibbons' transformation from establishment favorite four years ago to maverick with only the faintest political support is official. Threatened with becoming the only Nevada incumbent governor to lose a primary election, Gibbons raised a fraction of the Democratic and Republican front-runners' haul, according to campaign finance reports released last week.
The governor's likely loss in Tuesday's primary will end his political career, he said last week. Still, his situation is noteworthy, if only for the striking extent to which Nevada's well-heeled Republicans and corporate interests have abandoned him in such a short span.
Rarely in American politics has an incumbent governor — at least one who hasn't been indicted — been so left for dead.
A rocky tenure, poor economy and low poll numbers chased the money away. From Jan. 1 through May 27, the incumbent raised $179,000 and spent $5,000 more.
Fellow Republican Brian Sandoval raised $900,000 and spent $1.1 million.
Rory Reid, the likely Democratic nominee for governor, raised $984,000 and spent about the same amount.
Gibbons did get some large contributions from the old establishment, including Las Vegas Sands, Phil Ruffin and Wynn Resorts. But these look more like token parting gifts compared with the monster war chest he built in 2006, when he ran for governor as the favorite of Nevada's major business industries.
His campaign said the more modest operation was, at least partly, a choice.
"He ran a very tight campaign because he feels strongly that at a time when he's asking for the government to pull back the reins on spending, he doesn't feel it's appropriate to spend a lot of money on his own campaign," his spokeswoman Jill Lufrano said.
Sandoval leads comfortably in polls, both against Gibbons and in a November matchup with Reid.
But Sandoval was forced to spend much of his money on media as he fended off a spring surge by Gibbons and attacks from a group funded by labor unions and the Democratic Governors Association, headed by a close political adviser to Reid.
This leads to perhaps the most important numbers reported last week: Sandoval will likely enter the general election with $575,000 on hand; Reid will have $2.6 million.
The candidates' reports show Sandoval worked a bit harder for his money than Reid. Though Sandoval raised significant money in $5,000 and $10,000 increments, he did not bundle money in the tens of thousands as Reid has since the race began.
Sandoval donors included $5,000 from Mission Industries, the commercial laundry that services the Strip; Southwest Gas; the Las Vegas Hilton; Newmont, the gold-mining company; and Eye & Cosmetic Surgery Center of Henderson.
His $10,000 donors included reliable Republican money man Steven Kenninger; Boyd Gaming; Stan Fulton, who has a building named after him at UNLV; Joshua Miller of Henderson; Wayne Prim of Zephyr Cove; NV Energy, an old ally of Sandoval from his days in private practice; Nevada Yellow Cab Corp.; Checker Cab; and Desert Cab.
Rory Reid raised a significant amount through bundling or similar sources. About $55,000 in large donations came from labor unions, both in Nevada and Washington. Five television stations owned by former higher education Chancellor Jim Rogers gave $10,000 contributions, including the Reno and Las Vegas NBC affiliates. Through various Strip properties, MGM Mirage gave a total of $45,000 in contributions.
While Reid has a significant cash advantage and has sewn up MGM Mirage's exclusive endorsement, Sandoval will also see significant money because of his associations with its key players, first as a gaming regulator and later an attorney. Also, Nevada's gaming industry has historically hedged in funding campaigns and donated money to both candidates in major races.
Reid spent almost as much money as Sandoval, despite not having a primary contest.
Mike Trask, spokesman for the Reid campaign, said, "We have spent almost a year now building an infrastructure that will enable us to have the strongest organization in the state." He pointed to offices in Las Vegas and Reno, as well as staff costs.
"We're thrilled to be entering the general election with five times as much cash on hand as our opponent," he said.

I want a second dog because my current American Eskimo, Baxter, gets very lonely and stressed when left alone. After doing some research I've found that in many cases having a second dog helps with with anxiety when the owner has to leave. I love my dog, he is the perfect breed and I don't think I could ever get a different kind.

Landmarks Approves Rooftop Addition on 51 Jay Street
Looks like the residential conversion for 51 Jay Street, the old Jay Street Arts Building, is moving forward. Yesterday the Landmarks Preservation Commission approved exterior changes after the LPC denied plans for a two-story addition in March. This time the architects came in with a proposal for a one-story addition as well as altering the masonry openings, replacing the windows, installing a storefront infill and a canopy. We're curious about the plans for that rooftop addition considering that LPC struck down the first proposal in the interest of preserving the historic skylights. The DOB disapproved the application to convert this building to residential use in the fall and the owners have not reapplied since. Those plans said this would be a 126-unit build. Also on the LPC docket yesterday, the proposed townhouses for Pearl Street. We heard the commissioners had some very good things to say but also requested many changes. So expect that proposal to return to the LPC in a matter of time.
Update: According to someone involved with the project, "The revised approval removes the skylights and reinstalls them on top of a one-story addition below. The apartments at the top floor will duplex into the skylights. So it went from a two-story to a one-and-a-half-story enlargement. The windows on the upper floors will be replaced to match the existing historic windows, and the ground floor openings will retain more glass block and more of the historic loading dock/loading bay feel." Also, the DOB application that was disapproved was related to the LPC application, so you can expect the DOB application to move forward quickly.

Washington, Sep 7 (IANS) Observations of nitrogen in the Earth's atmosphere by a NASA spacecraft 17 million miles away are giving astronomers fresh clues on how that gas might reveal itself on faraway planets, thus aiding in the search for life.
Finding and measuring nitrogen in the atmosphere of an exoplanet — one outside our solar system — can be crucial to determining if that world might be habitable.
Edward Schwieterman, astronomy doctoral student at the University of Washington (UW) and astronomy professor Victoria Meadows show that a future large telescope could detect this unusual signature in the atmospheres of terrestrial, or rocky planets, given the right instrumentation.
The researchers used 3D planet-modelling data from the UW-based Virtual Planetary Laboratory to simulate how the signature of nitrogen molecule collisions might appear in the Earth's atmosphere.
They compared this simulated data to real observations of Earth by NASA's unmanned Deep Impact Flyby spacecraft, launched in 2005.
By comparing the data, the authors were able to confirm the signatures of nitrogen collisions in our own atmosphere, and that they would be visible to a distant observer.
"Studying Earth as an exoplanet is so important that we were able to validate that nitrogen produces an impact on the spectrum of our own planet as seen by a distant spacecraft. This tells us it's something worth looking for elsewhere," Schwieterman noted.
The detection of nitrogen will help astronomers characterise the atmospheres of potentially habitable planets and determine the likelihood of oxygen production by non-living processes.
"One of the interesting results from our study is that, basically, if there's enough nitrogen to detect at all, you have confirmed that the surface pressure is sufficient for liquid water, for a very wide range of surface temperatures," Schwieterman said.
Nitrogen can provide clues to surface pressure.
If nitrogen is found to be abundant in a planet's atmosphere, that world almost certainly has the right pressure to keep liquid water stable on its surface.
Liquid water is one of the pre-requisites for life.
Should life truly exist on an exoplanet, detecting nitrogen as well as oxygen could help astronomers verify the oxygen's biological origin by ruling out certain ways oxygen can be produced abiotically, or through means other than life, the authors noted in a paper published in the Astrophysical Journal.

The previous security settings were not completely preserved.
This happened in spite of the "advice" of the installer program.
It is strongly suggested that settings be backed-up (Overview

restored upon completion.
Do not depend on the installer program to accomplish the preservation of security settings correctly.
While I cannot say that this problem is pervasive, I can say that if it happens to one of us in can happen to others.
Fore-warned is fore-armed!!
Otherwise, the upgrade appears to have gone smoothly.

« Honda to begin field testing of micro-sized EV in City of Saitama, Japan | Main | IEA report finds "avoid, shift and improve" policies for urban transport could deliver up to $70T in savings through 2050 »
Chrysler Group partnering with NextEnergy to evaluate vehicle-to-grid technology
18 July 2013
Chrysler Group is working with NextEnergy to evaluate vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology using four all-electric minivans. Detroit-based NextEnergy is a non-profit energy-technology and business accelerator.
The battery-powered minivans are connected to a charging module that, using NextEnergy technology, can simulate any electrical grid in the world. Among the scenarios under study is reduced reliance on "spinning reserves"—the expensive practice of having huge generators at the ready to balance spikes in energy demand.
If EVs were linked together in sufficient numbers and their combined surplus power was sold to utility companies, they could conceivably offset demand surges. The expectation is that tapping such a reservoir would cut costs for utility companies, while also generating revenue for EV owners.
Similarly, a mini-grid composed of EVs would enable "peak-shaving," which would see EV owners draw from their own power reserves during those hours when demand for electricity—along with its price—is highest.
The V2G project also considers the impact of cloudy days on solar-panel function. EVs could provide supplemental power, a process known as "generation-firming."
The two-year Chrysler-NextEnergy partnership launched in 2011 and has been gathering data from four Chrysler Town & Country minivans equipped with all-electric powertrains. Each is powered by a 24 kWh battery modified to accommodate bidirectional charging.
In addition to studying vehicle design elements such as battery size, engineers are investigating how EVs with reverse power-flow might affect Independent System Operators (ISO). An ISO buys, sells and transmits electricity. Project engineers are collecting real-time pricing data from ISOs and weighing them against projected battery performance to help define revenue expectations.
Preliminary results show particular promise for ISOs that utilize solar and wind energy. Final results will be compiled later this year.
The project is funded with $1 million from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) and $400,000 from NextEnergy. Chrysler Group is supplying the vehicles and in-kind engineering support.
This program is indicative of our broad-based approach to powertrain development. Advanced internal-combustion technology remains at the core of our efforts, but the present regulatory climate we live in compels all auto makers to explore alternatives such as electrification. We're choosing to go the extra mile by also exploring how electric vehicles might mesh with our energy infrastructure.—Bob Lee, Chrysler Group Vice President and Head of Engine and Electrified Propulsion Engineering

BEIJING, Feb. 11 (UPI) -- China's Three Gorges Dam will be at its full generating capacity in May, the head of the China Three Gorges Corp. said Saturday.
Chen Fei said the last two of the six power units are to come online then, Xinhua, the official government news agency, reported. Last year, the dam produced 78.29 billion kilowatt-hours of electrical power.
The dam, the largest hydropower operation in the world, was designed for both flood control and electrical power generation. Construction began in 1993.
Officials say the dam proved its worth last year with three major floods on the Yangtze River.

I want to ask something. Just how many people actually used the 3D more then 5 times? Me and most of my friends don't, I know that. The 3D was a nice feature and all but I found myself completely forgetting the 3D after a few days with the system. I'm not sure if it's just me, but 3D makes it hard for me to focus on the game, especially if it's filled with fast-paced action.
Also, now that I think about it, Super Mario 3D Land had some sections where it helps if you turn the 3D on.(Pretty much the game where I used it most because of that) But, I don't really think that would be a problem. It was not used that much as far as I know.(I never did 100% on that game but I did beat the main story and some of the bonus worlds and, as far as I can recall, I only had to use it like 2-3 times and it's perfectly doable without the 3D)
Also, I don't see why so many people are hating on the design. I mean...it looks exactly like an open 3DS with the buttons moved up. It's really not so bad people. I've read a hands on that says it's rather comfortable so it won't interfere with gaming or anything.
Also, you can actually close it in a way. There is a slider that simulates the closing of the screen.
My past is like my logic, straight and true. Nothing's changed. All I did was point the finger of justice in the proper direction.

According to the Buddha, no one can attain basic sanity or enlightenment without practicing meditation. The teachings given here on the outlook and technique of meditation provide the foundation that every practitioner needs to awaken as the Buddha did. Trungpa teaches us to let go of the urge to make meditation serve our ambition; thus we can relax into openness. We are shown how the deliberate practice of mindfulness develops into contrived awareness, and we discover the world of insight that awareness reveals. We learn of a subtle psychological stage set that we carry with us everywhere and unwittingly use to structure all our experience - and we find that meditation gradually carries us beyond this and beyond ego altogether to the experience of unconditioned freedom.

"Difficult to understand in content. Narrator was perfect."
I'm new in learning about Buddhism so this was probably way over my head. Also didn't know about Trungpa's reputation so it was a shock at first but it is kinda refreshing. Narrator was spot on in reflecting his reputation.
"Trungpa Rinchope is brutally honest in truth!"
Brilliant, honest and mesmerizing. Elfer's narration captures the spirit. Go Shambhala! Mudita fellow Beings! Meditate
I found great value in this audiobook. It presents some very unique perspectives and explanations that really helped me wrap my head around some concepts and expectations in regards to meditation.
I wouldn't recommend this as a starter book for the very beginner, but very good for anyone beyond the basics of Buddhism.
You really can't go wrong for $2.00.
"Generally good information on meditation."
For the most part, I liked the book. It has some good information regarding getting started and continuing meditation. Some of what to expect and how to grow your practice.
My only real complaint is the language. I don't think the story was helped any by using "fucked and fucked up" so many times. I know these descriptions can be useful at times, but I don't think they helped here. Maybe he was going for a young audience. I hope that is not needed to appeal to a young audience. Oh, and my "favorite" word was "fuckedupedness" .
"Helps to listen on high speed"
Love the English accent of the narrator. Much of the book is on Q & A format. Gives the listener a feel of Chogyam Rinpoche style. I will likely need to relisten. Books like these help provide meditation guidance to those of us languishing in flyover country.
"Was expecting a bit more. But overall quite good."
The format of the book in terms of question and answer didn't bother me too much. What I found challenging about the book was that it seemed to be very much for the absolute beginner into meditation or Buddhism, so I found myself not getting much out of the listening experience in terms of acquired knowledge. It was just simply an enjoyable book after that, and I took it as such.
"Great Starting Place for Understanding Meditation"
Love this book! Clearly stated principles of meditation and how it affects our lives.
Chogyam Trungpa is a great teacher!
"excellent book"
incredible and excellent ,with such a powerful messages, for all of us, meditation is the key.
"too much profanity and crude language"
too much "fuckedupedness" by author or presenter to attempt to be hip. poor performance and would not recommend a returned book
"Great book"
Trungpa books are always amazing. The reader is very good but the way he pronounces 'Trungpa' or 'Rinpoche' is too hard.
"You have to be fairly experienced"
You have to be fairly experienced to grasp the concepts of this teaching, despite the fact it is aimed at students - however the students here are not new to the concept of meditation - it is excellent for those who want to go deeper, but may be lost on noobs.
"Love this book "
I've listened to this book 5 times it is so good. I recommend it to everyone

The Knicks adjust, setting up Carmelo and Kidd to win again
The Knicks weren't a well team during their recent slump, with injuried to Carmelo Anthony, Raymond Felton, Rasheed Wallace, Marcus Camby and others limiting their strength.
With Amar'e Stoudemire still working to return to form, and Iman Shumpert yet to play a game, the Knicks were struggling.
Story Continued Below
But in Sunday afternoon's 100-87 victory over the New Orleans Hornets, one that snapped the team's three-game losing streak, the Knicks figured out a couple of changes that helped them to do more with what they've got.
The most important of these changes involved a starting lineup, and most shifts, including Carmelo Anthony at the power forward spot, rather than small forward. Chris Copeland provided production out of the small forward position, and the two combined for 49 points. This is no accident; Copeland is a difficult matchup for forwards to cover, and operates out on the wing, giving Anthony all the space he needs to receive the ball in his best possible spots.
The Hornets start seven-footer Robin Lopez and rangy power forward Anthony Davis. If any team should have presented a difficult mattchup for a small lineup, it was this one.
The Hornets outrebounded the Knicks. That routinely happened early in the season, too. Then, as now, it didn't matter, thanks to the Knicks' superior offensive efficiency.
The other change involved putting a pair of point guards on the floor in Pablo Prigioni and Jason Kidd. This meant giving Kidd more time as a shooting guard, where he can force defenses to cover him on the perimeter and try to limit his three-point shooting, while allowing him to avoid the taxing minutes as primary point guard.
That the Knicks have struggled to figure out ways to play Prigioni and Kidd together is understandable. They haven't had anyone else to play the point, and coach Mike Woodson has been unhappy playing Kidd as much as he has.
But here, the Knicks are in position to maximize their best backcourt configuration, even before Raymond Felton returns in a few weeks. After Sunday's game, Woodson announced that Iman Shumpert would make his season debut in the team's next game, a Thursday matchup against the Detroit Pistons to be played in London.
Adding Shumpert to the mix will allow the team to put Kidd on the floor as shooting guard more. Shumpert also means the Knicks can rest Kidd more in general. And all of this can happen immediately, while Felton's return will allow it to occur without playing anyone out of position at all.

ZHANGZHOU CITY, China, Feb. 13 (UPI) -- Chinese President Hu Jintao vowed to aid Taiwanese businesses during a visit to an agricultural complex in Zhangzhou City on the mainland, officials said.
Hu Friday toured a business park containing the products of more than 70 Taiwanese agriculture firms, Xinhua, China's state-run news agency, reported Saturday.
The visit came in advance of Sunday's Spring Festival -- China's lunar New Year and its most important holiday.
Hu pledged to increase business through the Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement being negotiated between Taiwan and mainland China, Xinhua reported.
Hu said the agreement would provide new opportunities for agriculture and other businesses on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
"We will try our best in everything that will benefit the Taiwan compatriots, and we will honor our words," Hu said.

ATLANTIC CITY, NJ — Not even Hurricane Sandy was able to wash away a historic tourist season last year in New Jersey.
Gov. Chris Christie said tourism accounted for nearly $40 billion in 2012, up from $38 billion in 2011.
About 82.5 million visitors came to New Jersey last year, an increase of nearly 5 percent over 2011.
Many tourism-related businesses said nice weather led to a good season through Labor Day weekend.

Despite exchanging at a P/E of more than 400 both are bullish on the organization. It would appear that that they are dissecting Netflix similarly as MKM Partners, which had updated Netflix's value focus from $285 to $370 not long ago and stated that its market top could achieve an astounding $20 billion by 2020.
As I would like to think, MKM's valuation, in spite of the fact that uncontrollably positive, shouldn't be discounted. Regardless of the possibility that the organization couldn't attain the anticipated $75 billion in business sector top, it should draw near to the figure. The reasons behind this bullish thesis aren't elusive. First, as per MKM analyst Rob Sanderson, the video streaming market in the U.s. is worth $200 billion and Netflix's trailing twelve months' revenue is just $4.14 billion. This means that Netflix has a ton of room to develop revenue.
What would drive development?
The organization has been including subscribers at a really decent rate. It saw an expansion of 1.3 million new subscribers in the U.s. in the previous quarter, close to the higher end of its direction of 690,000-1.49 million. All the more impressively, Netflix's global subscribers hopped an incredible 1.44 million. In this way, Netflix finished the quarter with more than 40 million subscribers.
The organization's strategy of making its unique substance alongside convey content from different studios has worked well. This helped Netflix get revenue of $1.1 billion, at standard with estimates, while earnings of 52 cents per share were well in front of the 49 cents consensus.
Netflix has now surpassed HBO in terms of subscribers as it aims to turn into an electronic television system. It is supposedly occupied with negotiations with U.s. digital TV providers such as Suddenlink Communications, Cox Communications, RCN Telecom Services, and Atlantic Broadband Finance for substance. On the off chance that Netflix succeeds in getting itself onto link networks and is coordinated into set-top boxes, its usage would most presumably increase.
An enormous business sector
Indeed MKM Partners' analysis suggests that the "economics of amusement video will be redistributed with the shift to Internet-conveyed services." That's presumably the reason why Netflix's partnership with link operators such as Virgin in the U.k. also Comhem in Sweden could end up being lucrative. Sanderson states that link operators in the U.k. view Netflix as a "must-have" service, and as the organization moves into other universal markets later on, its worldwide subscriber tally can surpass its U.s. subscriber base.
In countries such as India, where broadband infiltration is still low, Netflix can discover an enormous business. The amount of households with a TV in the nation is anticipated to duplicate from around 160 million at present to 200 million in the following four years. This development will be determined by an increase in link digitization and immediate to-home services. Infiltration in such mass markets could be an enormous shelter for Netflix and help it develop its revenue substantially.
Analysts are also bullish about the organization's prospects with as a lot of people as 12 brokerages raising their value targets on the stock. Analysts at Morgan Stanley anticipate that Netflix will include 4.2 million subscribers in the final quarter. Looking forward, CEO Reed Hastings is of the conclusion that Netflix can achieve 60 million to 90 million subscribers globally later on.
Taking a gander at such projections, it isn't surprising to see that Netflix's forward P/E degree (for fiscal year finishing Dec. 2014) comes down to a more reasonable 83x. Earnings are relied upon to develop an incredible 136% next fiscal year and the five year yearly earnings development rate is pegged at 22.50%. This can develop about whether as Netflix expands its presence globally.
Netflix has a huge playing field in front of it and it isn't difficult to see why Brett Icahn and Schechter are still bullish. As I said above, Netflix may not be worth $75 billion by 2020 as MKM suggests, yet it can surely keep developing as it taps into more markets and expands its wings.

"Jim loved your card so much he ate it."
I love this anecdote shared by Maurice Sendak when he was once asked by Applesauce Magazine to share some of his favorite comments from readers over the years.
"Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I answer all my children's letters — sometimes very hastily — but this one I lingered over. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, "Dear Jim: I loved your card." Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, "Jim loved your card so much he ate it." That to me was one of the highest compliments I've ever received. He didn't care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it."
Takeaway: so, eating can be love. brb, getting an extra large slice of carrot cake.

I really love the smell of this tea, it reminds me of Read My Lips, but without the mint. I never thought I would be into chocolate teas, but here I am, indulging in a lot of them. The taste is a robust one, with the chocolate flavour which comes out quite nicely. I could not taste the zing or heat that people are talking about and looking in my teabag, there is evidence of chilis in it. I am hoping that my spoon was just a terrible one. Otherwise, I really love the taste :)

Credit union groups paranoid DOJ could change its mind and reverse guidance that allows accounts for state-legal marijuana businesses.
Despite guidance from FInCEN and the DOJ, legal hurdles remain for state-legal marijuana business accounts.
Despite a new state law in Colorado legalizing recreational use, credit unions still worry marijuana business accounts will run afoul of federal regulations.
While financial institutions wait for guidance from the DOJ, credit union leagues in Colorado and Washington caution against opening accounts for state-legal weed businesses.
President Barack Obama laid out his initiative to reform the secondary mortgage market in a speech on Aug. 6 that trash talked Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and voiced support for a Senate bill that would wind down the government sponsored enterprises and replace them with a mostly privatized system.

US Navy of 1915
11 minute video fragment
Updated 4 October, 2010: see bottom of page.
This video was found on the National Film Preservation Foundation site. It was produced by the Lyman H. Howe Company from a 35mm negative and identified by Charles "Buckey" Grimm. We added a music track.
The film was made with the full support of the Secretary of the Navy, Josephus Daniels, who believed in the power of motion pictures to convince isolationists of the importance of building a strong American navy. A former newspaperman who knew the value of publicity, Daniels allowed Howe's camera crew remarkable shipboard access. The results show sailors as they go about their day—doing repairs, cleaning the deck, exercising, as well as demonstrating naval might. The film drew praise as capturing "the pulse-beat of the complex life that throbs through our dreadnoughts from reveille to 'taps.'"
11 minutes
This was not first time the Navy had turned to film to tell its story. Early on, the Navy had collaborated with the Biograph Company on a now-lost series of 60 short films showing sailors and officers at work. The series screened at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair and 1905 Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition in Portland before being put to use in a Midwest recruitment tour. Naval facilities and ships also figured prominently in early newsreels and narratives. The service took care to ensure that depictions presented it in a favorable light and reserved the right, for commercial films shot with official approval, to reuse them for the Navy's own purposes.
Buckey identified the fragment through careful detective work involving the ships and ordnance on display in the fragment. For example, the "E-2" class submarine, pictured in the opening scene, was taken out of service in 1915, and the shells mentioned in a inter-title—"It costs the U.S. government $970.00 for each 14 inch projectile fired"—were added to the naval arsenal the year earlier. The clincher was matching a frame from the documentary with an image used in a newspaper piece to illustrate the Howe film. Buckey reported his research at the 2010 Orphan Film Symposium at New York University.
About the Preservation
Thanks to Tony Fernandez (CWO-4, USN-ret) for the following clarification:
The first battleship shown is either the USS South Carolina (BB26) or her sister, the USS Michigan (BB-27), which were the first US built class of "dreadnoughts," started in 1906 but not commissioned until two years later. They were armed with a main battery of eight 12-inch guns arranged in four turrets disposed along the ship's centerline. They had 12 coal-fired boilers, and two 4-cylinder triple-expansion engines driving two screws.
The next battleship shown is definitely the USS North Dakota (BB-29), identified from her sister, the USS Delaware (BB-28), by the placement of the pole mast at the rear end of the platform atop the main mast and the three identifying horizontal bands around her aft stack. As the next advance in US dreadnoughts, they added a fifth 12-inch twin gunned turret at the rear of the ships (i.e., turret #3 was on an elevated barbette with the gun muzzles facing aft, turret #4 was on a barbette at main deck level with muzzles facing forward, and turret #5 was on a barbette at main deck level with muzzles facing aft...turrets #4 and #5 were therefore back to back at the same deck level). The third battleship shown is definitely the USS Delaware (BB-28) because of her turret arrangement, the mainmast's pole mast placement, and the two identifying horizontal bands around her aft stack.
The open mount shown in the gunnery drill was probably a 5-inch, although the later view of a full gun crew was probably a cluster around a 3-inch aboard an early destroyer.
I think the large shells being loaded were in fact 14-inch projectiles since were those first used aboard the sister battleships USS New York (BB-34) and USS Texas (BB-35), both commissioned in 1914. The smaller powder cans were probably for the 5-inch secondary battery guns that were generally in case mates rather than turrets/shielded mounts....note the larger powder cans that several of the sailors are leaning on in the background. These were for the main battery's guns.
The name of the conic-shaped instrument used when splicing a rope/line was called a "FID." A marlin spike was the metal conic-shaped instrument used to splice wire-rope.
The USS Wyoming (BB-32) was a sister to the USS Arkansas (BB-33), both commissioned in 1912. They had six turrets with twin 12-inch guns arranged along the centerline; two forward, two immediately aft of the mainmast, and two more toward the extreme end of the ships. Curiously enough, the Arkansas, New York, and the Texas all survived to fight in WW-II. All of their predecessors had been scrapped due to obsolescence and the 1922 Washington Naval Conference's provisions, with the exception of the USS Utah (ex-BB-31) that had been de-militarized (removal of main battery guns, side armor, and decommissioned/reduced propulsion machinery). That's the same UTAH, in use in 1941 as a radio-controlled target ship, that the Japanese sank at Pearl Harbor, having mistaken it for a carrier because of timbers laid across its decks.
The primary reference used is "Battleships and Battlecruisers 1905 - 1970" by Siegfried Breyer (ISBN 0 385 07247 3). That book covers the BBs and CBs of all nations during that time period, and contains detailed comments on a ship's history; specifying construction details, equipment, modifications, and disposition. In addition, although it has no photographs, it does have drawings that show the ship as-built, and later major modifications. Ship particulars are described as follows: where appropriate (e.g., USA & GB), gun caliber/bore is in inches; but armor thickness and ship dimensions are described using the metric system measurements. It helps therefore to have a handy Metric - English converter when using this book.
Tony Fernandez bio:
Tony has had an affinity for warships, their construction and functions since the age of 14. He started observing differences among ships of a given class when he began building the early plastic models coming onto the market in the mid-50s. He was active USN from June 1959 until retiring in December 1979. He started out as an ET and then was persuaded to apply for Warrant Officer about the time he made ETC. Served aboard the USN ships Rigel (AF-58), Great Sitkin (AE-17), Thor (ARC-4), Miller (DD535), Springfield (CLG-7), Little Rock (CLG-4), and John F. Kennedy (CV-67). In addition, he had several tours of shore duty, the last of which was as Electronics Officer for COMNAVSURFPAC in Coronado, CA.

Saoirse Ronan inspired by mum's emigration story for Brooklyn
Saoirse Ronan was inspired by her parents emigrating to New York in the 1980s for her role in new movie Brooklyn.
Three years after Saoirse was born, they decided to move home and the Carlow native said her performance is a love letter to their experience.
"To have my mom speak about her journey and when her and my dad moved over there, what that was like for them, that was tough to listen to but it really helped me, not just for the role but for my life," she said.
"When she saw the film at Sundance, I just went up to her and I literally jumped up off the stage and ran to her arms. And she said, 'You just got it. You got exactly that fear and that excitement I had.'
"I don't think I realised it in the moment, but what I did with this performance is channel my mom," she added.
The film is based on the book of the same name by Colm Toibin and tells the story of a young woman who moves from small-town Ireland to Brooklyn, New York but returns home following a family tragedy.
Upon her return, she ends up torn between her old and new life and the men in both worlds.
While the film is set in the 1950s, Saoirse feels like it has a feminist undertone.
"To see a character like her, set at that time and not have it be solely about the men in her life, that's pretty feminist," she told the Awardsdaily.com website.
"Every single woman in this film is strong and independent and yet feminism couldn't flourish back then."
The 21-year-old's performance is already garnering an Oscar buzz and she is set to receive the New Hollywood gong at the Hollywood Film Awards next month.
Meanwhile, Brooklyn won the top audience award at the Vancouver Film Festival over the weekend.
There was also good news for Lenny Abrahmson's upcoming film, Room, which was named best Canadian feature.
The movie is an Irish-Canadian co-production.

Although her daughter, Valentina, was born in 2007, Salma Hayek still recalls how difficult it was to come to terms with her changing body.
As reported by Us Weekly, the actress, 46, confessed in the current issue of Glamour magazine's Glam Belleza Latina that the 50 pounds she gained during her pregnancy forced her to look at herself in a different way.
Hayek explained, "I gained so much weight, I got an opportunity to see myself completely disfigured in many different ways — for a very good reason — and I don't regret it for a second."
Her use of the term "disfigured" may not sit well with some readers, but the truth is that our bodies do change significantly when we are carrying a baby. Hayek's assertion of these changes highlights that although this does occur, we should value what our bodies are capable of: "That's when I started appreciating my body. The things that I used to criticize, they were not that bad after all."
One of the ways in which Hayek shows this appreciation is to fight against societal pressures that may cause women of any age to lose confidence in themselves: "You have to be smart and successful and a good mother and beautiful and young and skinny forever." These unrealistic expectations can affect the self-esteem of even the most confident mama.
Gaining weight during pregnancy is a tricky situation because we are encouraged to put on the pounds, but in a healthy way. And this is not always easy when you crave Kit Kats. Early on in my pregnancy, I had cravings for healthy (but sweet) food such as pineapple. However, closer to my due date, my diet consisted of popsicles, chocolate pudding, and water (in my defense, it was 90 degrees outside and I had pre-labor contractions for nearly three weeks).
Yes, my body changed, but like Salma Hayek, I don't regret it. After encountering some difficulty, I was grateful to experience a healthy pregnancy. And, like Hayek, I got a gorgeous little girl out of the deal!
As Hayek told the magazine, "I think we have to take a deep breath and just enjoy ourselves and say, 'I'm going to be the best that I can be, and that's more than enough.'"
How do you de-stress when faced with the pressures of being a mom or mom-to-be?

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Conservative activist groups are hurting the Republican Party's efforts in next year's election and beyond by focusing their energy more on unseating GOP incumbents than taking on Democrats, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said Friday.
Huckabee, who ran unsuccessfully for the GOP presidential nomination in 2008, also left open the possibility of another White House bid. Speaking to the Political Animals Club in downtown Little Rock, Huckabee complained that outside groups such as the Club for Growth, Heritage Action and FreedomWorks are spending too much time and money by going after GOP officeholders.
"I think one of the most destructive things that's happened is right now within my own party, the Republican Party, I see more energy and money thrown at getting rid of other Republicans than I do in winning the big battle," Huckabee told the club, which meets regularly to hear from elected officials and other political figures.
Huckabee, who lives in Florida, now hosts a talk show on Fox News Channel and a national radio show. He said the focus on unseating GOP lawmakers by the groups "infuriates" him. He said it could cost the party control of the House next year and its effort to claim the Senate, and could hurt in 2016.
"We've got a lot of Republicans throwing grenades in the tent. We're fighting the wrong team here," Huckabee said. "I know there's a lot of Democrats in the room. Look, our battle is to beat you guys. We're not going to do that if we beat up each other so much that we're all wounded and absolutely mangled that we can't even go into battle."
Club for Growth has been active in Arkansas politics, backing Republican U.S. Rep. Tom Cotton's bid to unseat Democratic U.S. Sen. Mark Pryor next year. The group earlier this year targeted Republican U.S. Rep. Rick Crawford with a website asking the public to suggest primary opponents for the two-term congressman.
Huckabee said he didn't see Club for Growth's support as an argument against Cotton, who is not expected to have a primary opponent in his Senate bid. Huckabee says he's backing Cotton's candidacy.
"I don't blame candidates for taking support. I blame the groups not for helping a candidate, that's what they ought to be doing," Huckabee told reporters after his speech. "What they shouldn't be doing is going out and hurting other Republicans. If they help a guy, that's great."
Huckabee has tangled frequently with the Club for Growth, which ran ads during his unsuccessful presidential bid highlighting tax increases he supported as governor. He's in the past referred to the group as the "Club for Greed."7 comments on this story
"Mike Huckabee should attend an anger management seminar," Barney Keller, a spokesman for the group said in an email. "He simply can't get beyond his outrage that the Club for Growth PAC opposed his presidential candidacy because of his record of raising taxes and increasing spending as Governor of Arkansas."
Huckabee told reporters he's mulling another run for president in 2016, but doesn't have a timetable for making a decision.
"It's not something I'm laying awake at night, but it's obviously a process," Huckabee said. "I'm still young enough and capable enough to consider it, so that's all I can say at this point."

But seriously, my impression reading the article was that it was just a set of randomly chosen initials.
Oliver Goodman, or what have you.
original gangsta.. loll
You are correct, it is the initials of the person writing. This might be due to many reasons, anonymity if the letter was read by someone else (spys, war, etc) and of course the reader would know who the initials belonged to..

I was able to use the data to see what types of injury happen in my home.
Natalie Yancher: It says right in the comments that it is CHIRPP data, so your assumption is correct. Well done. Also there is a column for 20+ age group, so I am not sure why you think the public wound think that Canadians over 20 years of age do not get injured.
There is no indication of where this data comes from or a disclosure of its limitations. I assume it is CHIRPP data. Without an explanation, it would mislead the public into thinking that Canadians over 20 years of age do not get injured. This is an abysmal reflection of injury surveillance in Canada, considering that it is the number one killer of children and young adults in our country.
Thank you for your feedback. We have forwarded your comment to the dataset provider for their response.
Thank you for your comment. The following response has been posted on behalf of the data owner
"The Canadian Hospitals Injury Reporting and Prevention Program (CHIRPP) is an injury and poisoning surveillance system presently operating in 11 paediatric and 6 general hospitals across Canada . The CHIRPP system currently transitioned to a web-based system and contains over 2.3 million records. Information collected includes activity at the time of injury, activity leading to the injury, the direct cause of the injury, contributing factors, time and place of the injury event, the patients' age and sex, up to 3 injuries (body part and nature of injury) and the treatment received in the emergency department. Narrative fields provide information to further refine the coding and identify rare events and/or consumer products. Although only selected hospitals report to CHIRPP, previous work has shown that the data collected through the program represent general injury patterns among Canadian Youth".

The Museum of Innocence
Orhan Pamuk
Translated by Maureen Freely
Knopf, 544 pages, $26.95
The narrator of "The Museum of Innocence," Orhan Pamuk's first novel since winning the 2006 Nobel Prize in Literature, at one point declares that "A love story that ends happily scarcely deserves more than a few sentences!" And from the beginning of this profound recounting of a sensitive man's obsessive love for a headstrong yet fragile woman, it is evident that circumstances will eventually keep them apart.
The novel's protagonist, Kemal, busies himself creating a museum filled with mundane objects whose "astonishing powers of consolation," derive from their often fleeting association with his beloved, Füsun. By amassing objects that remind him of every moment with her, Kemal seeks to collapse time into an alternate reality. Naturally, he wants to inhabit this inventive universe; the founder and curator of this peculiarly personal museum lives within his creation.
As is often the case with this master of melancholy or (in Turkish) hüzün, Pamuk sets his poignant tale in his hometown of Istanbul, Turkey. Of course, Istanbul itself is akin to a museum. To describe the city as such is not to detract from its vibrancy or its continuing evolution, but to acknowledge its role as the repository of layers of radically different cultural and architectural histories — modern Turkish, Ottoman, Byzantine and more.
Maureen Freely, who has rendered several of Pamuk's works (fiction and nonfiction) into English from the original Turkish, also translated "The Museum of Innocence." Her version is fluid and graceful.
This novel is a bewitching journey through Istanbul spanning several decades. In 1975, 35-year-old Kemal runs into 18-year-old Füsun, a distant relation by marriage whom he has not seen in years. Deeply moved by her beauty and poise, Kemal seduces Füsun, though this experience is just as noteworthy for her unexpectedly assertive sexuality. "As she peeled off her clothes," Kemal recalls, "Füsun changed from a fearful girl made sad by helpless passion into a healthy and exuberant woman ready to give herself over to love and sexual bliss."
Kemal is soon to become engaged to the attractive and intelligent Sibel, and for a time entertains the notion of keeping Füsun as his mistress. When he proceeds with his planned engagement, however, Füsun breaks off relations with him and disappears. Heartbroken, Kemal tries to make a go of things with Sibel, but eventually calls off their engagement. He then manages to re-establish contact with Füsun, intending to propose to her, only to find that she has already married.
Kemal doesn't give up. Over the next eight years, he becomes a fixture at Füsun's dinner table, in the apartment she shares with her parents and husband. He regularly pilfers objects — everything from cigarette stubs to a quince grater — from the house. This continues until Füsun finally decides to give Kemal another chance, but things take an abrupt turn toward the tragic.
Pamuk's genius is to set Kemal and Füsun's torturous relationship, itself deeply involving, against Istanbul's unpredictable trajectory during the tumultuous decade between the mid-1970s and mid-1980s. Depicted here are societal conflicts — tradition versus change, Islam versus secularism, left versus right, democracy versus military dictatorship — that bedeviled Turkey during that era, and that can still be seen today. One particularly explosive issue that affects Kemal's relationships with both Sibel and Füsun is the public's negative perception of unmarried women who are sexually active.
Evocative language further enriches this story. Just as important is Pamuk's ability to sustain the reader's sympathy for Kemal. In spite of his unsettling museum project, Kemal somehow never appears creepy or disturbed: only besotted, wistful and, of course, melancholic.
None of this is to say that "The Museum of Innocence" makes for a consistently enthralling read. Whereas evil, as Hannah Arendt famously observed, can ultimately be banal, obsession frequently is just plain boring. Kemal's endless acquisition of sundry items, and his often intricate explanations of which moments in Füsun's life they recall, prove enervating. Yet slogging through this abundance of minutiae is a small price to pay for admission into Orhan Pamuk's novelistic museum of Istanbul's changing landscape and social mores at whose center is a haunting love story.
Additionally, "The Museum of Innocence" provides heartening proof that winning the Nobel, at the relatively young age of 54, has not tempted Pamuk to dilute his work or lower his standard. He remains a committed and engaging storyteller.

FOLSOM — A 1973 Capitola convicted murder-rapist's "untreated predatory nature and sexual deviancy" caused a state board to deny parole this week, according to the Santa Cruz County District Attorney's office.
Santa Cruz Assistant District Attorney Alex Byers argued Tuesday against the release of Wilfried Willie Brown, 57, who killed 79-year-old widow Ida Anderson Stine "in a red haze" of emotion as a 16-year-old peddling soap door to door.
Brown, who was tried as an adult, had been released from the California Youth Authority just six months prior to the murder for the rape of a relative.
Stine reportedly invited Brown into her home for coffee and cookies and the two prayed together. Brown then forced Stine into her bedroom for the assault, according to trial testimony at the time.
"An inexplicable murderous rage over-took Brown," District Attorney Bob Lee said in a release. Brown was apprehended seven days later.
In Brown's 15th hearing, the board denied parole, finding Brown to be an unreasonable risk if released. He will again be eligible for parole in 2019. —— (c)2014 the Santa Cruz Sentinel (Scotts Valley, Calif.) Visit the Santa Cruz Sentinel (Scotts Valley, Calif.) at www.santacruzsentinel.com
