MILAN, April 11 (Reuters) - Italy's Treasury and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti (CDP) are studying options to cash in on state-owned assets, a Treasury official said, amid media reports that the government could sell stakes in Italian firms to the state fund to cut public debt.
"There is a joint team of experts from the Treasury and the CDP that is looking at all options to extract value from state assets," Fabrizio Pagani, a senior official at the economy ministry, told Reuters on Tuesday.
Italian newspapers have reported that the government could sell stakes it owns in companies including Poste Italiane and Enel to CDP by the end of this year as a way to cut debt.

Ok, I'm headed back to Thailand in 3-4 months. I'm taking a month off and doing multi trip with Thailand being the last stop. Now I do plan on exploring more of Bangkok, but this time I want to travel to Koh Phi Phi island and I wanted to know if anybody on this board has ever been there. Thinking things through I should have done a search, but I will look into it after I post this..
I think I'm going to pay the 2000 Baht or so and just take the 12 hour bus from Bangkok for the scenic route. But yea, it's either Chiang Mai or Phi Phi and I chose Phi Phi Island because I really want to see that clear blue water and put my feet in the sand.

Explain why.
sort by best latest
In my opinion, the President. The Republican candidates are fixated on shrinking government for the sake of shrinking government, to the point where they seem unable to notice that the millions of government employees laid off over the past two years have been the biggest single contributer to unemployment, and the biggest single drag on the economic recovery.
Which wouldn't be quite so bad, if our structural deficit problems had actually been addressed. They haven't, because those problems don't result from overdone discretionary spending, which is what has been cut.
In essence, we've had the worst of both worlds, courtesy of a misguided House and an obstructionist Senate minority.

I will say that to fix the economic structures, reduce the debt and get the people to work without letting old and sick people, children starve and public services become a memory Mitt Romney is the best!
Newt Gingrich is a shady character that is cleaning up his act for the office, Ron Paul tells truths and won't be scared of letting people die and starve if the numbers get better... I won't go that far!
I think that using the ideas of others that are good after getting in the office would be good...because Romney is more human that those two.

'I remember screaming very loudly. In TV shows, that's where the ad break comes in, while some ninny is screaming her head off. No ad breaks in real life, though.'
'Lissa Wilson has seen more than enough death in her family, so when people start being savagely killed whenever she has a night out in Melbourne with her beautiful new boyfriend, she's determined to investigate and to make the killing stop. Even when she realises the murders must be the work of a vampire.
'Things have been looking up for this librarian and 21st century geekgirl, but the murders make her remember why she prefers books to people. People leave you. People can die.
'She finds herself teaming up with the painfully awkward Gary to get to the undead heart of the matter. But there are more challenges in store than Gary's appalling fashion sense.
'The idea of living forever can be a big temptation for someone who has lost so much.'
Source: Back cover blurb.
'Lissa Wilson's world turned upside-down a year ago.
'People she cared about - one she could have loved - were murdered. By vampires. They tried to kill her, too.
'On the plus side, she made a new friend. Gary Hooper might be Melbourne's (or maybe the world's) least impressive vampire, but he may be her best friend, ever.
'Without meaning to, he changed her and he taught her the value of her life. Knowing Lissa has changed Gary, too, even though he's not really sure what it means. It doesn't mean that Gary doesn't have secrets, though. Secrets that might end their friendship, if Lissa ever learned about the services he provides the undead community.
'And what's an ordinary geekgirl librarian to do when hardcore vampire killers begin killing off Melbourne's vampire population, and her undead bestie is on the hit list? Should she throw herself in mortal danger, despite having no battle skills, let alone supernatural strength?
'Lissa risks everything to protect someone who should be perfectly capable of protecting himself. And Gary finds that the ways he's changing might make him more human - if they don't get him killed.
'Everyone has secrets; everyone gets trapped by their history. How many can learn how to change? How many will live long enough to try?'

Managers Bruce Bochy and Jim Leyland have announced their lineups for Game 4 of the World Series between the Giants and Tigers.
After Hector Sanchez went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts as DH in Game 3, Bochy said he went with Ryan Theriot because of his contact skills going up against a power pitcher in Max Scherzer, who has struck out 18 in 11 postseason innings.
Even though right-handers hit .201 against Scherzer and lefties were .292 in the regular season, Bochy said he liked Theriot's at-bats against right-handers and he clearly has little faith in Sanchez or Aubrey Huff.
Also, Bochy said he would check with Tim Lincecum in batting practice but would prefer to stay away from using him in Game 4.
"This is a little uncharted territory the way we're using him," Bochy said.
San Francisco Giants
1. Angel Pagan (S) CF
2. Marco Scutaro (R) 2B
3. Pablo Sandoval (S) 3B
4. Buster Posey (R) C
5. Hunter Pence (R) RF
6. Brandon Belt (L) 1B
7. Gregor Blanco (L) LF
8. Ryan Theriot (R) DH
9. Brandon Crawford (L) SS
On the Detroit side, catcher Alex Avila is dealing with a wrist injury he sustained in Game 1 so Leyland decided to start Gerald Laird behind the dish.
Detroit Tigers
1. Austin Jackson (R) CF
2. Quintin Berry (L) LF
3. Miguel Cabrera (R) 3B
4. Prince Fielder (L) 1B
5. Delmon Young (R) DH
6. Andy Dirks (L) RF
7. Jhonny Peralta (R) SS
8. Omar Infante (R) 2B
9. Gerald Laird (R) C

A collection just like an array is an ordered group of elements of the same type. Each elements position is determined by a unique subscript.
Index by tables:- They are similar to hash arrays that allows to search for subscript values using arbitrary numbers and strings.
They can be declared as:
TYPE type_name IS TABLE OF element_type [NOT NULL]
INDEX BY [BINARY_INTEGER | PLS_INTEGER | VARCHAR2(size_limit)];
INDEX BY key_type;
TYPE studenttyp IS TABLE OF emp%ROWTYPE
stud_tab studenttyp;
Nested tables:- they hold random number of elements and use sequential numbers as sub scripts.
TYPE type_name IS TABLE OF element_type [NOT NULL];
Example: TYPE employee_type IS TABLE OF NUMBER INDEX BY VARCHAR2(64);
Varrays: Holds a fixed number of elements which can be changed in run time.
TYPE type_name IS {VARRAY | VARYING ARRAY} (size_limit) OF element_type [NOT NULL];
Example: TYPE Calendar IS VARRAY(366) OF DATE;

thanks guys. I'm with my son, who wants to see the Voyager cast and then do the Academy training at Intrepid. We're going around 1:00 to see the shuttle.
Wow. Coming from you, Steve, this is a very high compliment! (And I hope they gave you a good deal on it.)
I'm so sad I'm not able to be there to hang out with you and Joe and Nancy and all the TFW members in attendance. Come to Vegas next year and we'll come to NYC!
I got to talking with Rod and yes he gave me a very good deal. Ryan these things are beautiful! Once I saw it in person I had to have one.
We just had a visitor!
how frakin cool is that! all your props and set pieces (and builders) were also a thrill to see.
me and my name sake (and Mrs Riker)sorry TOS fans.
Nice photo!
Rod and his Son
Great Shot
that is a great shot of Rod and his son. Rod was wondering about the floors in casual attire for all three days. I struck up conversations with him a few times. Really nice guy. Good to see him and Adam visiting your sets!
Ooooh myyyyy goooshh!!! That looks like an absolutely incredible time!! So many famous faces and places! I'm so jealous!!!
Walter also had his turn in the chair
He looks fraile.Was he that way?
My wife and I had a great time! We met William Shatner and Walter Koenig and got autographs. My wife, Lori, ran into Robert Picardo as he was making his way to his table and she was getting a pretzel. It was a fun exchange. As a unexpected bonus, I met with JoeB, nygeekgirl & pielock373. Great conversation and a pleasure to meet all of you!
Given that it's now only a few days until Walter Koenig turns 80, I'm not surprised that he looks frail.
I met him at a non-Trek-related event probably 20 years ago, give or take a few (at that time he collected original newspaper comic, comic book and animation related artwork), and he looked frail even back then.
A met him a month or two ago at the Roddenberry offices, and I wouldn't so much say that he seemed frail as that he he is gentle and soft-spoken man, and I can see how he could easily be mistaken for frailty. I really liked his general relaxed demeanor and sincerity.
And now the highlight of the entire event for me. In all I have around 30 shots, here are some to wet your appetite.
OMG WHAT A WEEK END!!! Nan and I got home around midnight, completely spent. We had so much fun. I did not see as much of the con as I would have liked and I missed nearly every celeb who sat in the big chair but that doesn't matter. It was great just to be a part of the crew and meeting so many great people. The highlight was talking to all of the folks from here who stopped by. I've been fortunate to meet so many now over the years. I'm not into collecting autographs or meeting the stars, sure that's neat and all, but what really meant the most to me was connecting with my fellow prop lovers. Thank you so much.
I what go thank James Cawley for inviting Nancy and me to help with the booth. It was such an incredible experience. I can't express my gratitude enough. James you're the best.
Great pictures of the of the Galileo. Steve grabbed me yesterday morning and said we're going now. I'm glad he did too because we were practically the only ones at the display. Everyone else was probably going through the rest of the ship but we just made a bee line for the shuttle craft. It was awesome what can I say. We had some issues with how it's presented but that really didn't matter. We were like too kids, drooling and not wanting to ever leave. Getting to see the Galileo in person was icing on the cake. I'll post what pictures I took later.
So it looks like a static display from a distance that you can't view the interior.
Here's a video of its restoration.
JoeB (my hubby) talks about the props to ABC! I'm proud, happy and thrilled.

Too old or too young? I know plenty of successful brokers that started in their late 40's and early 50's as 2nd careers. Maturity goes much farther in this business than "youthful energy". However, if you think you are over the hill at 34, you might have challenges.
I agree age itself won't be a problem - in fact an asset.
The bigger question is how long are you willing to sacrifice financially? You'll almost inevitably make less money that you would almost anywhere else in the first few years. If you can survive THAT, you have a chance to make serious change. Many your age can't persevere because of family financial commitments.
I started at age 48 - 9 years ago - the shame of that statement is that I spent 5 years before that, worrying that I was too old to start a new career. What an idiot I was. Dont make the same mistake.
After a few years tho it takes on a life of its own.
Are you too old at 34? If I didnt know better, I would think that was a joke, not a question.
I just turned 44 and I am greatly considering changing careers and becoming a stockbroker trainee. I like what Troll and the rest of you have said, but I need some more guidance and input. Please advise.
I once was a trainee in the 90's and used to make 3 - 500 calls a day so I know what it entails.
That actually seems like a good age to get started in the biz. I'm 24 and started three months ago, just made my first trade today. Got the guy off a cold call, he is 61, asked how old I was when I was opening the account. I'm afraid that being so young is going to turn older individuals off because they won't trust me. This guy is a prominent attorney and has millions. I want all of his business. How can I approach these people for more of their business?
i am 28 and started 4 years ago. i got the guy off a cold call, he is 53. he asked me how old I was when I was opening the account. i was little confuse to answer him. is anyone here who tell me how can i approach these kind of peoples??
What your stock broker doesn't want you to see!

Results 1 to 12 of 12
August 1st, 2008, 01:39 PM #1SkirtSpot.com - #1 for skirts - 18k uniques/mo
Hi all,
We've put SkirtSpot.com up for auction via Moniker. It should be in the live auction at Affiliate East in Boston, though they are still finalizing their list.
The site is #1 in Google SERPs for these terms (maybe others):
women's skirts
skirt store
skirt shop
knee length skirts
fall skirts
spring skirts
summer skirts
winter skirts
yellow skirts
And ranks for these terms as indicated (and others):
skirt = #3
a-line skirts = #2
cotton skirts = #6
red skirts = #3
blue skirts = #4
polka dot skirts = #2
white skirt = #2
yellow skirt = #3
There is also an opt-in mailing list of 4900 addresses, with an average open rate of 25%.
Some other stats:
Monthly uniques between 12k and 18k per month so far this year.
Bounce rate = 26%
53% of search traffic comes from the keyword "skirts", which has a 19% bounce rate (lower than site-wide rate)
No SEM/PPC
70% of traffic is from Google organic
14% is direct
Why are we selling?
Our business model didn't work because of two huge barriers to conversion: (1) no brand name products and (2) fulfillment time over 10 days, due to our practice of making each skirt when ordered.
Of course, these would not be factors if someone were to start an affiliate website on this URL.
Please contact me with any questions.

Umm, I wish you good luck, too.
"Uhh, there already is an affiliate program at SAS for SkirtSpot. Is it closed? Still shows online to me."
Umm I just checked and it was still online also. I don't doubt that it will be closed soon, tho and am not complaining about that.
It wasn't mentioned in your post but just read the email again and if I understood what it said..... we've been sending our customers to the site when they can't purchase anything from the site??
I'm not sure I want to ask this question, but ummm how long have we been doing this? I just checked SAS and the site is listed as online, it hasn't been offline at any time. Does say there was a tranasaction on 6/13/08. Not sure if that would've been from a cookie or customers were able to purchase at that time.
It's not really in my nature to be critical or accuse people, etc. and I'm not doing that now since I don't know how long a period of time this has been this way. Ummm but if a visitor makes a search for skirts or any other keyword or even would find an affiliate's site because they had been using a datafeed or featured some product images on their site, arrives at an affiliate's site, clicks on one of your links and goes to the site only to find that they can't purchase anything from the site...... it's quite possible that the customer isn't gonna be too happy about that or happy with the affiliate who's site just sent them somewhere on a wild goose chase since they're not able to purchase from the site. Good chance I suppose that customer may not go back to that affiliate's site again, or at the least they may have chosen to visit one of the other merchants who were also featured at that affiliate's site instead if your site hadn't been there (had we known we were sending visitors to a site where they couldn't purchase anything).
Again, I don't know how long this has been going on and maybe I'm not understanding your email either (so am not accusing anybody of anything ) but if I did understand what the email said and this is what's been happening....I don't really think it was very fair to your affiliates. If this in fact was happening (again, not accusing since I'm not sure I'm understanding it correctly....is gettin later in the day, been up since 5:30 so poor little brain is pretty tired at this point and definitely don't wanna be sayin anything that may sound critical to anybody if I'm understanding the email wrong.)
So, I apologize if I understood the email wrong, but in it you said:
"Lastly, customers do not know the site is transitioning. It remains live, though you cannot purchase any items."
Could you please tell us how long have we been sending our visitors to a site where they're not able to purchase anything. (If in fact I'm understanding that to be what is meant by what you said.)
Moderator - I copied and pasted just one itty bitty line and made sure it was saying a little size up there, so hope I don't have to go get teenybot fixer upper to come to my rescue. Sorry, if I do ahead of time.
*Just thought....moderator, you might want to move this thread into the SAS area so affiliates who may not read their email for a while will be aware of this.
August 1st, 2008, 05:57 PM #6
Their datafeed has not been updated since last November. I have been contacting Craig for the last several months via every imaginable method because the shop is full of winter stuff still and getting no response.
I altered my metatags some time ago so that the shop could be either woke up or dumped as becomes necessary. This program has been inactive (though online) for months. I'm still in wait and see mode but driving traffic? nope.
August 1st, 2008, 07:50 PM #7
hmmm I had no idea this was happening. I hadn't seen them go offline and don't think I was getting any invalid links from them. (but then I guess I wouldn't have since the site hasn't been offline) My coupons, (only this was the coupon store option at GoldenCAN ) was just a clearance link, or least now is. Wasn't aware there was a problem so not sure what it may have said in the past.
I just tried the link tho now (the GoldenCAN clearance link) and it came up with a page saying Bad Request (Invalid Host Name) Thought maybe had missed that they had been deactivated at GoldenCAN but just checked there and they're still listed as active.
August 1st, 2008, 10:14 PM #8
Gosh - these comments questioning why SAS and GoldenCAN are still active make me wonder if I should have just closed down the affiliate program without letting the affiliates know in advance. My intention was to be courteous, and I do think it was the right thing to do.
As you can imagine, we are balancing a lot of things -- trying to fulfill the few remaining orders, letting go of staff at the last possible minute, handling returns without staff or revenue, servicing debt payments without revenue, etc.
I appreciate your patience. Please accept my apologies if this shutting-down process is a little bumpy for you.
Of course, I suggest all affiliates remove their links. SAS and GoldenCAN will be discontinued momentarily.
2Busy - apologies for the stale product feed. Part of the reason we are closing is a lack of funds/manpower to maintain all aspects of the site, and that is a prime example. We felt it better to pull the plug than limp along.
Purplebear - we made the products un-purchase-able about seven days ago. I received about 5 inquiries from would-be purchasers and let them know the situation.

And letting most of the ABW affiliates know via a post about selling the domain name, well, that kinda sucks.
People appreciate the problems you are facing, but as business people, affiliates deserve to know when they need to make changes to send traffic where it can earn them commissions, not send traffic to dead sites.
Good luck with your future endeavors and with selling the domain name.Deborah Carney

Have a feelin I may be one of the ones you may be upset with and I definitely apologize if I appeared rude or upset you. As Loxly posted.....Definitely didn't mean to appear that way.
Will try to explain a little why this is an issue with some of us. If you're one of the biggie affiliates this probably may not mean as much to you. If you're one of the smaller affiliates tho it would. I'm not just speaking for myself, there's a lot of other smaller affiliates and this would've been a concern for them, too.
Not being an affiliate you probably don't understand, but it's not an easy thing for some of us to get a lot of traffic to our site. If we get a visitor to our site looking to purchase skirts, your site's links would be an obvious one for them to click since a reasonably smart person would assume you've got lots of skirts
So....even tho I (or any of the others) may have 5 or even 10 other merchants on that same page that would also have a nice selection of skirts, they probably would've clicked your links since it may seem like the best choice.
Time's really valuable to a lotta people and if they visited your site but couldn't find a "Buy now" or some other link to purchase, they may have gotten annoyed at not only your site but the affiliate's site since we sent them there. We just wasted their time visiting a site where they weren't able to purchase the product. As an affiliate, the last thing we want to do is annoy or do anything that may keep somebody from coming back to our site. This experience could've possibly done that to any of us.
It also, possibly could've caused us to miss a possible sale from another merchant we had on our site because instead of going to that merchant they went to your site instead.
Because you're not an affiliate you probably weren't thinking this way so I'm definitely giving you the benefit of the doubt and don't think you deliberately were trying to be unfair to your affiliates. The way it should've been dealt with tho was to give your affiliates ample time to remove your links before the site became a site where visitors encountered what they did and weren't able to purchase or not able to purchase by just clicking a "Buy now" or similar button.
As to the email you sent. Ummmm I try to open my emails at least in the same day and skim thru them in case I encounter a situation like this or need to know something. Sometimes I just can't take listening to the noise of another email coming, tho lol I have to turn off the volume. We get an awful lot of email. A lot of others may not do that, tho. A week from now they may just get to reading the email you sent. Again, since you're not an affiliate you probably wouldn't have realized that.
So....will repeat, I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt that since you weren't an affiliate, you wouldn't have thought of these things and I don't believe you deliberately were trying to be unfair to your affiliates, so am sorry if I came across that way. If you actually knew me, you'd realize I'm the last person in the world who would want to say or do something to hurt somebody's feelings or annoy them. I'm just not like that, good or bad lol, just the way I am. lol
Thank you for answering my question and I do wish you well with whatever you'll be doing next.

Disclaimer: I own the plot, but I don't own Digimon.
Author's Note: This drabble is based off a little "stowaway" situation that I constantly dream about.
I Can't Run, But I Can Hide
Putting his backpack down, Davis plops on the couch, panting and sweating.
"Next time, don't be late to Kari's date."
"Good afternoon, Davis," says Kari, completely dressed, when arriving to the kitchen.
"Afternoon, Kari," pants he.
She turns her head and notices his harsh breathing.
"Can I give you some water?"
"…Please… And a towel, too…"
"Coming right up."
She soon arrives at the couch, supplies in hand.
He grabs the towel and dabs his forehead, and then he begins drinking.
At last, he sighs.
"You're welcome," says she, hands behind her back.
"So, where are we gonna go on our date?" asks Davis.
Kari chuckles.
"We're not going anywhere."
Davis hums questioningly.
"I haven't planned to actually go to any restaurant to start with."
Davis looks around.
"So what are we gonna do?"
She slowly walks over, as if making a hinted dance. Then, following blowing a strand of hair from her face, she stands over him, hands on her hips.
Davis gasps.
The pieces are finally connecting.
"Is this why you wanted Gatomon and Veemon to stay at my house today?"
Kari nods, and she sits on his lap.
Davis can feel the excitement within him. The ability to be with Kari alone at last is just blissful. No one is around, and they have the house to themselves.
The same goes for Kari. She is finally his for the taking.
They lean towards each other and kiss at last.
"What are they doing?"
"I don't know, Veemon, but I think Kari calls this 'Tongue Twister.'"
"Oh… Maybe we can try it."
"After seeing this?! I'd rather share Miko's litter box!"
"Good point."
With that, they close Davis's backpack and return to sleep.

- Artist: Drew Sullivan
- Genre: Jazz
- Release Date: 12/18/2007
Strollin' is a compilation of timeless classics. They celebrate my emergence and recovery from a difficult personal period. The joy and excitement I felt singing these jewels with such talented musicians is conveyed throughout the album. The 1990 recording session produced six songs in a 'Live to DAT' tape format. There were only a few takes per song in this single daytime session. The masterful engineering of Dan Moretti and the artful arrangements of Mark Small made it possible. I want to thank them again for their friendship and collaboration. My One and Only Love was recorded in 1997 as part of a compilation CD, Boston Sings Out, which featured twenty five Boston area vocalists accompanied by the wonderful Frank Wilkins Trio. It is a beautiful recording of a special song. I regularly close my shows with it as a dedication to my wife Virginia. Ginny inspired me to release this music to a wider audience. So here it is, in all it's youthful exuberance. I sang my heart out. If asked, I'd say these are some of my best performances. I want to thank David and Cathy Correia of Celebration Sound and Rick Couto of Orange Dot Design for their help in making this album possible. I am still singing and enjoying this wonderful life. One day at a time, one breathe at a time. I try to carry the musical message, that Peace is Possible and every day is a gift to be gratefully and joyfully opened. All the best, drew.

It is important to ensure that your hard earned assets are protected from creditor claims. Asset Protection must be implemented before there are any known creditors. If you have assets you want protected, call Dana Law Firm today.
Asset Protection is the "catch phrase" that so many people talk about and search on the internet, yet most do not understand what it is, or what it can do to benefit them. Briefly, Asset Protection is anything that can protect your assets from becoming part of a judgment or attached by a creditor. This can be due to divorce, bankruptcy, personal injury or civil lawsuit. The list goes on and on how assets can be protected, from the very simple – Corporation or Limited Liability Company to the more complex – such as a Prenuptial or Post-nuptial Agreement, Family Limited Partnership, or Irrevocable Trust, including a Nevada Asset Protected Trust or even an Offshore Trust. Most often, an Asset Protection plan will include a combination of some of the different entities and/or trusts that Dana Law Firm provides.
Upon meeting with one of the highly qualified attorneys at Dana Law Firm, your attorney will first inquire as to what assets are involved and establish to what extent the asset is exposed to liability. Liability exposure can vary from remote to very high probability, depending on several factors, including the type of asset, how it is used, the owner's profession, as well as the owner's personal lifestyle. The hard truth is that if you are a successful professional or entrepreneur who has assets and cash to show for years of hard work and success, you automatically become the unfortunate target of malicious and often times unwarranted legal attacks. Often times, a person has liability exposure and has no knowledge as to the extent that such exposure could be harmful. Anytime you have accumulated assets of value, you should consult with an attorney to fully understand what your exposure is, and more importantly, how to minimize or eliminate such exposure.

Cincinnati Bearcats vs. Memphis Tigers Pick-Odds-Prediction - 3/6/14
Memphis Tigers (22-7) at Cincinnati Bearcats (24-5)
College Basketball: Thursday, March 6, 2014 at 7:00 pm (Fifth Third Arena)
The Line: Cincinnati Bearcats -4.5 -- Over/Under: See the Latest Odds
The Memphis Tigers go on the road to tangle with the Cincinnati Bearcats on Thursday night.
Memphis has to win their final two games and hope for some help to secure a top four finish in the AAC. The Tigers are riding the momentum of one of their biggest wins of the season in a 72-66 defeat of visiting Louisville. The Tigers led by six at the break and survived several Cardinals comebacks with 49% marksmanship outdistancing the 39% accuracy of UL. Michael Dixon Jr. paced the scoring with 18 points with Geron Johnson tossing in 15 points followed Austin Nichols and Chris Crawford adding 14 and 12 points with Nichols posting five pulls.
Nelson Chenault-USA TODAY Sports
Cincinnati certainly lost an opportunity to take over first in the conference with consecutive defeats following a 51-45 loss at Connecticut on Saturday. With Louisville also losing Cincy remained in a first place tie as their offense failed to help out an ultrastrong performance at the defensive end of the floor. The Bearcats held the Huskies to only 31% from the floor but countered with only 27% shooting and 20 turnovers. Leading scorer Sean Kilpatrick tossed in 16 points and posted five yanks but was just 4-16 shooting with Shaquille Thomas next in line with eight points and five pulls.
I could argue for either squad because both are high quality teams. Cincinnati has dropped back to back games and are 17-1 at home which makes it tough to go against them. For now I will take the points and dig in to this further...

Dutch police hope better cooperation between neighbouring countries will help in identifying bodies that have been washed up on coast.20 May 2008
THE NETHERLANDS - Dutch police are hosting a two-day meeting with colleagues from a number of European countries to discuss the exchange of information on missing persons.
The meeting, which starts on Tuesday, was prompted by the difficult task of identifying bodies washed up on the Dutch coast.
Strong currents mean that such bodies may well have originated in neighbouring countries. As local authorities are usually only aware of who is missing in The Netherlands, the identity of the victims is often impossible to establish.
It is hoped that better cooperation between European police forces will improve the situation. In addition, modern pathological research methods will help to facilitate the identification process.
Since the 1980s, around 700 bodies have been washed up on the Dutch coast alone, of which nearly 500 have been successfully identified.

We are so proud to announce that Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche will be addressing this assembly of young leaders in person.
Our Ziji Collective Summit immediately precedes an epic, precious weekend with the Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche and Ani Pema Chödrön called Being Brave which will take place May 2-4.

Once again, Handtec were brilliant. Ordered the product and asked for it to be delivered to the flat that I live in whilst working away from home. Delivery driver didn't access properly due to workman round my flat and wouldn't let me collect it (due to having no ID for my weekday address), and so I contacted Handtec via email. They had the delivery address changed to my work address that afternoon and the next morning it was delivered to my work address so that I had my parcel - at no extra cost. This is the second time I've had superb service from Handtec and would use them again without hesitation.

Strategic Growth Options
We provide a strategic rationale for growth options under uncertainty and imperfect competition. In a market with strategic competition, investment confers a greater capability to take advantage of future growth opportunities. This strategic advantage leads to the capture of a greater share of the market, either by dissuading entry or by inducing competitors to "make room" for the stronger competitor. As a result of this strategic effect, payoffs are in a rough sense more convex than in the case of no investment in a growth option. When the strategic advantage is strong, increased uncertainty encourages investment in growth options: higher uncertainty means more opportunity rather than simply larger risk. If the strategic effect is weak, the reverse is true. On the other hand, an increase in systematic risk discourages the acquisition of growth options. Our results contradict the view that volatility is a strong disincentive for investment.

Will our current President do anything to discourage this?
Zero Hedge – The social fallout from Trump's rising popularity continues with the most disturbing event taking place recently when prominent Black Lives Matter activist and rapper Tef Poe tweeted a message for "white people": if Donald Trump wins the presidency, "niggas" will 'incite riots everywhere.'
"Dear white people if Trump wins young niggas such as myself are fully hell bent on inciting riots everywhere we go. Just so you know," Poe tweeted. A screenshot of the tweet was captured below by the Daily Media.
He followed up with another promise: "Trump wins aint no more rules fammo. We've been too nice as is."

Style up stairs with wallpaper craft
by Tara King • 12/04/2015 • Country craft • 0 Comments
Give personality to painted stairs by adding wallpaper to the risers, as featured in our May issue. Soft pastel patterns (we chose Fretwork, £39 a roll, Sanderson and Capello Rose, £80 a roll, Liberty) bring a relaxed charm to any room, perfectly complimented by a striped runner in similar hues on the floor. Here's how…
Carefully measure your stair risers and cut out pieces of wallpaper to fit. Stick in place using a thin layer of PVA glue; smooth the paper, pushing out air bubbles and creases. Wait until the glue is completely dry (about 24 hours) before using a soft-bristle brush to apply a light coat of clear water-based varnish, to finish.
If you like this idea, we've got lots more easy craft projects for you to try. Click here for creative inspiration.Read more →

We are going to St. Kitts for 4 days and Nevis for 4 days. I am debating between Golden Lemon and Ottleys Plantation on St. Kitts....anyone have a suggestion on which place would be better to stay at? The draw to Golden Lemon was that it was on the water but Ottleys looked nicer.

We enjoyed the Golden Rock on Nevis. A very down-to-earth place with great cuisine, and at the base of the mountain where the trails begin. Robert
Report Abuse
I know that you stated Golden "Lemon"; although I've never heard of it, the name reminded me of the Golden "Rock" in on Nevis. It has a nice website, if you tap into Yahoo search engine. Robert
Report Abuse
Both Ottley's and Golden Lemon are very nice places to stay. They are fairly comparable as to the "quality" of the rooms (they are very tastefully decorated), the friendliness of the staff, amenities, etc. Golden Lemon is the slightly smaller resort and it is located on a small dark sand beach at the north end of the island near Dieppe Bay, where the Caribbean meets the Atlantic. Ottley's is on the hillside about about 20 minute drive from Basseterre. It is in a beautiful garden setting. Both are very well run resorts and are small enough to give you very persoalized service and the food is excellent at both places. Choose the Golden Lemon if having a beach nearby is important to you. Select Ottley's if you would prefer a mountainside location. You should plan on having a rental car or big taxi budget regardless of which ofthese resorts you pick as they are both far from "everything".
Report Abuse
Thank you Sunnyboy...since you say they are both far from everything, is there a hotel that you would recommend that is more centrally located?
Robert thank you too, I will check out the Golden Rock since I have not booked Nevis yet either.
Report Abuse
Have you considered the Marriott? I know it's a chain and will lack the island charm of Golden Lemon or Ottleys, but it gets very favorable reviews on www.tripadvisor.com. In fact, I'm considering a trip to SKB and a stay at the Marriott. Depending on when you're going, the Marriott offers some pretty enticing rates. You might want to visit the Marriott website and check out the resort.
Report Abuse
Thanks, I did consider the Marriott but we thought is was just too big of a hotel when we really want quaint and charming....its not ruled out yet since it does seem to cover everything we wanted regarding the beach, tennis etc...
Report Abuse
If you book in at Golden Rock, bring some peanuts for Pam's parrot, which will spy on you whilst showering. Also, the monkeys from the forest will come visit you in the early morn, so don't leave food out on the porch. Oh, often a local band of wild donkeys will hee haw from the forest and awake you at sunrise. That's if, of course, they haven't found a way through the fence and are at your front door. Robert
Report Abuse
We stayed at the Timothy Beach Resort, which is on the Caribbean side across from Marriott area - thought the Marriott simply did not fit the area, a little too much for a quiet island like St. Kitts. But the goal there is to attract tourists and I think the majority of tourists prefer places where name recognition is helpful. We wouldn't have chosen it, but to each their own.
Report Abuse
inthechips; We rented a car and visited Timothy Beach Resort. Nice beach and grounds...has soul. I ran into a woman marine biologist on Nevis, who does a combination "hands-on" teachings of reef creatures, followed by snorkeling expeditions. Was she based out of Timothy Beach, or somewhere else? Did you run into her, and do you remember her name and the operation she runs? Robert
Report Abuse
I have no idea Robert. That doesn't sound like anyone we met.
We found the TBR to be quiet and low key, not posh by any means but more than comfortable, and a great location. We became Monkey Bar regulars at sunset!
Report Abuse
I snorkeled off the Monkey Bar along the shore by the rock formations. I really dug the bar, too. Friendly staff and accomodating. Great drinks...I forgot the mixed cocktail I had, but after two, I duck walked back to the car. Felt like I gulped down a bottle of stomach relaxers. There was a local feral dog puppy with one leg missing that kept begging. It was a cute pup; I gave it half the food I ordered. But...unbelievable, on the way home, a tourist had adopted the dog and was carting it on carry on luggage on the Beef Island/Puerto Rico loup back to the states!!! Probably staying in a posh condo in Manhatten. The lady marine biologist must have been at another resort area, maybe around Qualie Bay. Robert
Report Abuse
You must be referring to Under the Sea in Nevis. www.undertheseanevis.com
Report Abuse
I have to say, that we were pleasantly surprised by the Marriott. It was large, but we felt very alone and there is a lot to do. Definitely plan on some time at Turtle Beach Bar and Grill. We also liked Marshalls. I thought Stonewalls was ok...not a tremendous menu choice. My DH loved it, so take it for what it's worth. In Nevis we loved the restaurant at Oualie Beach. Wonderful!! Ask for Chef Jason and he will hook you up. Have fun!!

Hello MLF! If you you are going to St. Kitts I would recommend the ST. KITTS MARRIOTT AND BEACH CLUB CASINO resort. Great place and great rates.

New boiler in 2010?
Slide the new garage door down a few slots on the list. And forget about re-doing the back porch for a few years.
We feel like we're still timid beginners in this home ownership thing. Yet, suddenly, we're at the ten-year point. The plans are still there. We need to stop acting like it's not ours to do with what we like. We CAN paint if we want to, darn it! No need to ask permission from anyone.
The downstairs family room in our finished basement is one of those neglected rooms we've vowed to get to someday. Well, someday is here! Sort of. It needs a new ceiling, new lights, a new carpet, a paint job and some of the trim needs repairing.
What's the hold up been?
Money mostly. Also time, but that's a lame excuse. I'm sure we could have found the time somewhere in ten years if we'd really wanted to. Probably the money, too.
Yesterday, I decided it was THE day to chip away at that particular to-do list. One trip to Home Depot and $60 later, I've started painting. Well, I've at least done the prep work. The actual painting will happen tomorrow and the next day.
|This section of wall is taped, washed and ready to be primed.
But, I've learned that impatience doesn't pay when painting.
Last year, I hastily primed and painted my bathroom cabinets, only to have the old stain bleed through my sloppy priming. Add that to the list of lessons learned the hard way.
The more you know, the better you do. Right?
The basement family room walls are heavily stained. This room houses our woodstove. I don't want any smoke residue bleeding through the fresh paint.
I covertly grilled a somewhat grumpy Home Depot paint counter guy to answer your (my) burning questions about primer. Here's what I learned:
1. Paint and primer all in one products are best for jobs that require light priming. If you're covering up a light color, a few greasy finger prints and general smudges, this is the paint for you. Also use it if you're not sure you need a primer. It never hurts to have it, but you might regret it if you don't.
2. Skip the all-in-ones and get a separate primer when you have projects with heavy stains (water stains, smoke stains, etc.) or if you're painting over dark colors. I'm using the Kilz oil-based primer for my woodsmoke tainted walls. Two coats is a must. It creates extra work when I'm dying to get to the fun part already, but it really is the way to go.
3. If you're painting over white walls that aren't stained, you can skip the primer altogether.
Painting is all about the prep work. If you wash, tape and prime before you paint, your paint job will be one you can be proud of. If you don't do it right the first time, you may not get to it for another ten years. Trust me, you don't want to be looking at a crappy paint job for that long.

i'm posting friday's post this afternoon, lol. you'll get the full scoop on today's stuff later tonight.
i was in mail most of the day, and it made my arm hurt again, dammit. i did knit a little bit, and finished knitting a pair of booties i'd started for AC4C. i'll show pics later.
mark was a whirlwind again. sigh. at least i can still find stuff. he put all my books on the bookshelf (he doesn't know about the boxes of books downstairs yet, lol), and organized the corner with the hutch. he tried to tell me i didn't need another trash can there, as the one over by the cooking area was enough, but i like it there. if i'm coming up stairs from the basement, it's a straight shot to the trashcan. and it's convenient as hell. it's staying.
he says we're going to go through all the kitchen cupboards together, because he doesn't know where i'll want things. i'm glad, at least i'll be able to find things in my kitchen.
You might be a redneck if you've ever belched into a karaoke machine.
Pattern of the Day: Leslie's Double Eyelet Socks. ah, bliss, more sock patterns. and the colorway they used for the pic on this is cool, it's black and red (remember the poncho i'm making?)
Have a nice day (lol)
(and i've had 1400 visitors! woohoo, i must be liked!)
