Financial regulation
Checks and balances in the City will be a major election issue. The Tories are determined to dismantle Gordon Brown's structural setpiece – the tripartite separation of the Financial Services Authority, Treasury and Bank of England. They claim this set-up contributed to a void of responsibility in regulating the banks.
This would spell the end of the FSA and give the Bank hefty new financial policing responsibility. Both Labour and the Liberals want to keep the current arrangements.
Despite Mr Cameron's reminders that finance is in his blood, the Tories have not shied away from policies attacking banks "that will not be popular in all corners of the City". The Shadow Chancellor – and the Liberals – want some kind of separation of investment and retail banking, plus limits similar to the US crackdown on proprietary trading.
All three parties support a tax on banks in return for an implicit state guarantee and tougher rules on bonuses. The Liberals have gone further by calling for pressure on banks bailed out with taxpayer funds
to act in the public interest.
"I know this is a hugely tough one, but if a bank tax is applied on a global basis, there's a very strong case for those who benefited from state support to pay something back," says Tim Linacre, chief executive of investment bank Panmure Gordon. "Many in the City recognise this, as long as it's not a tax on each transaction."
Corporate tax
According to the British Chamber of Commerce, the Institute of Directors and CBI, most businesses are more worried about corporate tax changes than restrictions on the City. No party will admit to planning a raid on profits with higher capital gains tax, but companies are already worried that this could be a post-election reversal.
Manufacturers are also concerned about the immediate threat to their rebate on the capital costs of equipment posed by the Tories in return for lower corporation tax. "Manufacturers have already had a tough time, but this would impact cash flow and profit," said Lee Hopley, chief economist at manufacturers' body the EEF. "It could also discourage utilities and other industries from investing."
In the energy industry, the threat of a hung parliament is dire news, since those responsible for the £200bn transformation of the country's electricity and gas infrastructure need politicians to start making swift decisions. Companies such as EDF and Centrica are keen on the Tories' support for a minimum price on carbon allowances as this would make investment in clean energy, such as nuclear power, more attractive.
But any influence awarded to the Liberals could stymie Britain's plans to build four nuclear stations over the next decade and throw energy policy into disarray, given the party's vehement opposition.
The major difference in this area is the Tories's clear opposition to a third runway at Heathrow and Labour's commitment to the extra air traffic, with most business groups on the side of more jobs, investment and tourism associated with the development. All parties want high-speed rail links, but transport industry experts said the Tory plan has a little more detail.
Planning controls
Both the transport and energy sectors have much to fear from Tory or Liberal influence on planning policy, since both parties are sceptical of the Government's new body, the Infrastructure Planning Commission which strips responsibility for major planning decisions from politicians, allowing projects to get quicker approval. But the two opposition parties are concerned it ignores local residents' and want to abolish it.
This the is sector most at risk from spending cuts as attempts are made to cut the deficit and safeguard the UK's credit rating. The Liberals would cancel the UK's order for the Eurofighter tycoon jets.
National Insurance
The biggest row of the so far has been over Labour's proposed 1p rise in National Insurance Contributions – which would be dropped by the Tories at a cost of £5.6bn.
Business groups have heavily criticised any increase in the levy paid by employers on staff salaries, calling it a "tax on jobs". And 23 corporate leaders, including Sir Stuart Rose, chief executive of Marks & Spencer, and Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou, founder of easyJet, have publicly condemned the tax-raising measure. Lord Mandelson, the Business Secretary, claimed corporate leaders have been "deceived" by the opposition's' promises, saying his counterpart's figures do not add up. His intervention was swiftly denounced as "patronising" by Ian Cheshire, chief executive of Kingfisher.
But will this corporate support endear the Tories to the ordinary voter or position them on the side of big business? Richard Baron, head of tax at the Institute of Directors, says small business owners also back the plan to ditch the tax rise. "Nearly half of our small business members said it would make them think twice about hiring staff. Our members want taxes to be low and simple," he said. "Whoever can deliver that will gain votes."

Offshore firm Walkers has hired Linda Martin to head its finance and corporate practice for London and the Middle East.
Martin joins the firm from Maples and Calder where she was a partner in the firm's Hong Kong and London offices. She will be based in Walkers' London office.
Walkers said it was a strategic hire which reflected the changing work being referred to the firm in the current economic climate.
According to global head of finance and corporate Antonia Hardy Walkers has seen a rise in restructuring and enforcement work. "Many transactions are either currently in a state of default or have required restructuring work to avoid that scenario," she said.
Martin specialises in debt and equity capital markets transactions, structured finance, asset financing and general banking and corporate matters to the Walkers team.
She will be joined by Linklaters associate Chinyin Lim who joins the firm in March.
Last month Walkers announced it was opening in Singapore (The Lawyer, 26 January).

Galatasaray have parted company with Roberto Mancini by mutual agreement.
The 49-year-old guided the team to the Turkish Cup and a second-placed finish in the Super Lig last season.
Mancini, who had two years remaining on his contract, has been strongly linked with a return to Serie A and his former club Lazio where the coach Edy Reja could only lead them to a disappointing eighth in the league.
Mancini moved to the club after getting sacked by Man City following their FA Cup final defeat to Wigan Athletic last year.

Welcome to the new and very sexy Bungie.net Forums! I'm sure all of you know how to use a forum, so I'll skip the silly instructions and get right to the good stuff. What's new and THE RULES! [b]What's NEW:[/b] Layout. Not only is the forum a lot nicer looking than before it is also more functional. Avatars. Check out your My settings link. Then click on Avatar. OMFG SWEET. Forum Polls. This is like the coolest new update to the forum in my opinion. Basically you can create a poll and insert it right into your forum topic! Although, I hear bungie will take this feature away if the master chief loses any popularity forum polls. So it's probably not a very a good idea to make any stosh vs. master chief polls. Text Markup. The text formatting system has been revamped a bit for the new Bungie.net. It's now much easier to use and new users should be able to decipher it without needing a team of geeks at their disposal. Practice the text markup options [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=85]here.[/url] Chars Left. Check out this feature located on the bottom left of your post field. It counts the amount of characters you have left for your post in real time. Neat, huh? Pin. If your forum post is really awesome, we can pin it. Basically pinning will make your post stick to the top of the forum. It will be uneffected by time, meaning it will stay up there until we unpin it. Delete. The new system won't leave icky forum data residue anymore when we delete ugly forum posts. They will just disappear. Like a bad forum post should. Lock. We can lock forum posts now. Locking is just another feature we will use to combat user immaturity and senseless forum topics. I would also like to note that all three bungie.net forums will be moderated daily. Rude users will never ruin your day on one of our forums again. Promise. [b]The RULES:[/b] Please DO NOT advertise your chapter here. You can use the seventh column [url=http://seventhcolumn.bungie.net/perlbin/blam.pl?file=/site/2]mainpage[/url] for that. No petitions. Do not link to adult content or to sites that contain information on any type of software piracy. No bad jokes. Xbox hacking/modding discussions will not be permitted on any of the bungie.net forums. Don't Flame each other. Use your manners and common sense. If you disagree with someone, do so gracefully.

Any user who violates this rule will be put to [url=http://www.soffish.com/images/noob.gif]death[/url].

Suggestions: Use a spell checker to check your posts for misspellings. There's no point in making a forum topic if we can't understand it because of multiple spelling errors. Don't use stupid abbreviations. (Example: Your = ur, You = u, Are = r, Halo: CE) P.S. If you have any suggestions/complaints/questions about the new site and its awesome forums, please make them at the [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/topics.aspx?forumID=3]Septagon[/url].

Seriously, HOW did you get your kid to eat those greens?
Simple. Start from the beginning. Of course there are some kids that no matter what you give them they won't have a taste for healthy foods, but in my experience that's the very rare exception. Naturopaths who have an emphasis on nutrition most often have children who eat a wide range of foods including varied vegetables (especially greens,) spices, whole grains, game meats, healthy fats, and even take herbs, fish oil, vitamins and other remedies without batting an eye. What's so different about how we feed our kids? We give them healthy foods. Period.
Call me a zealot but I say kids should get healthy foods and healthy foods only for as long as you can possibly manage it.
Children's palates are a blank slate. They learn foods as they eat them. Now that said, some children do have an immediate dislike for certain textures or tastes. But even if your child rejects a food, try it again every few weeks, you'll be surprised at how your child's tastes change. I remember overhearing a mom say to a friend at the park "kids don't like Chinese food." The other mom said "What about Chinese kids?" Perfect.
A child who has never had white bread will be satisfied with whole grain. A child who hasn't had food smothered in cheese won't ask for mac and cheese for dinner. Oh, and by the way, dairy isn't a nutrient, calcium is, vitamin D is, but your child will be fine if she doesn't eat dairy on a regular basis as long as she's getting enough calcium and vitamin D. But I digress.
Here are some tips to start your child off right. And trust me, the earlier you start the better off you'll be.
Don't give any food that is strictly sweet. Make sure there are other flavors: sour, bitter, salt, spicy, and umami. Example: Sweet potatoes? Add pureed chard, kale, and spinach. We actually added this to everything our son ate until he was off of pureed food. Everything. Oatmeal? Greens. Eggs? Greens. Chicken? Greens. All of it. Sometimes that and a bowl of greens. Not kidding.
Avoid the trap of "children need cake." A mom actually said this to me when my son was under two. It sounds nuts but many (dare I say most?) parents feel it is depriving their children to not give them sugar when they're little. It's not.
Feed your child what you are eating (once she's old enough) but that means YOU need to eat healthy food. Of course your child will eat pizza if you're eating pizza. But a child raised on healthy food will also eat halibut with olive tapenade wrapped in organic prosciutto with a side of sautéed spinach.
Every meal should be served with a vegetable. Most meals with more than one. Including breakfast.
If you're feeding packaged foods to your child, even from the health food store, read the label. If the food contains hydrogenated oil or corn syrup, drop it. If it has artificial colorings and flavorings, chemicals or preservatives, think twice. You want your child to be satisfied with the taste of real, whole food.
With every plate of food you prepare for your child ask yourself "How can I make this healthier?" And do it. Only a few veggies? Add more. No protein? Add that. If a child starts with meals that are served with several kinds of vegetables, and ideally at least a serving of greens, then that will become the norm.
Serve veggies first, when your child is hungry. We call it the appetizer and although our son will eat veggies with his meal we can get more in him if we start with a big bowl of them while we're getting dinner ready.
Add fresh herbs and spices to the foods you serve your child. From the beginning.
Breast feeding mamas- eat plenty of varied foods, especially those greens. If it causes your child digestive issues watch it but otherwise know that if you eat bitter veggies your child will more likely develop a taste for them.
If there is a food your child doesn't like, mix it with something she does like to get her accustomed to it. Of course you don't have to do this for everything…my son hated button mushrooms when he was 2 and he hates them now at 10.
Full disclosure I know this is a pain in the butt and you may very well not want to be 'that parent' but if you think nutrition is important, and you want your child to have a wide palate and enjoy all kinds of foods, trust me here, it's worth it. You don't have to get into a discussion about it with anyone if you don't want to. Bring your own food (including treats to parties) until your kid is too horrified to let you— by that time she'll be making her own good choices (well, most of the time.)
Yours in Health,
ETA: I just read this post to my husband and he pointed out I should add that another healthy tip is to skip dessert entirely. Just because you're used to dessert, there is no reason to give it to children. Dinner can be complete, should be complete, without a sweet ending. How many adults wish they hadn't developed that habit of wanting something sweet to eat at the end of a meal?

I have to admit that the name "Vampliers" was a little off-putting at first. It sort of sends the vibe of, "yeah, the tool doesn't have much going for it, so we gave it an interesting name." Turns out, that's not the case at all. The Vampliers are, in fact, a unique, useful and interesting variation of a set of linesman pliers. The fact that they're very well made only adds to the goodness.
What makes the Vampliers the Vampliers is the shape of the nose. Instead of two flat jaws coming together, the Vampliers' nose is serrated with a slight gap between the teeth, giving the impression of a smiling wolf or maybe even, gee, I don't know, a vampire? When you open the jaws, you can see that the serrations extend up the inside of the jaws in a slightly concave fashion. Along the sides are serrations that run perpendicular to the first ones. So there is no flat to flat jaw here, except along the sides where the teeth fit perfectly together.
And why is this? Well, the Vamplier's specific mission in life is to assist with the unscrewing of stripped or damaged screws. And at that task, the tool is a doozie. Because of the shape of the jaws, the Vampliers can grab just about anything and the teeth dig in to the extent that as long as you're strong enough to turn the handles, the jaws will hold.
I tested it out on a ton of different screws and fasteners and the only one where the tool was unsuccessful was when I tried to use it to twist out the plug on an ancient radiator. To the Vampliers' credit, in the end we had to drill out the plug. Nothing else worked (it was basically an impossible task, but we gave it a shot anyway). Still, my plumber was very impressed with the tool.
To use the Vampliers is to twist and torque the handles. On low-grade pliers, this would be a weak point, but on these, the pivot connection is extremely solid, sort of like the quality that you might see on a set of Kleins. I also like how the nose of the tool has some interesting machining to it. There's a little flair to the design. Not a ton, but some thought went into the aesthetics of the tool. The same can be said about the handles (which are also comfortable).
The Vampliers Pro cost around $40. It may seem like a decent chunk of change for a hand tool, but it's on par with any other high quality hand tool (Knipex, Channellock, Kleins, etc). By all indications, the Vampliers offer that level of durability. Their usefulness is unique and anyone who has ever struggled with a stripped or otherwise semi-destroyed bolt will understand their value.
There are a couple different versions available. There is a smaller version, one in the form of slip joint pliers, and the original Vamplier which just does the screw extraction without some of the Linesman function. More info on those here.

I may have missed earlier comments, but I believe the Vampliers are identical to the Japanese "Engineer" brand of extraction pliers. In fact, the Vampliers have the same appearance and handles as the Engineer models. The Engineer pliers have GREEN handles, while Vampliers have RED handles. The handles of both have "Engineer" imprinted on them.
There is an appreciable difference in price, as well, so it's mostly a matter of preference whether you buy one over the other. No doubt part of the price differential is owing to extensive advertising; Engineer doesn't seem to advertise, so perhaps that's why they don't charge as much. Mechanics like Scotty Kilmer and Eric the Car Guy (ETCG1) have tested the Vampliers and think they're worthwhile, but I don't think they receive(d) a stipend for their opinions.
In any event, I wouldn't get rid of your other extraction devices. These are just one type you should have in your arsenal for that task. For instance, they'd be useless in trying to remove a screw that had broken at or below the surface, when there's nothing for the jaws to grab hold of. Your chances of removal are increased, too, if you use some penetrating oil (or heat, if that would be prudent). Sometimes a few light taps with a hammer can break the fastener loose if it's physically restrained by corrosion.
Oh yeah, those do look pretty similar. One cool thing with the Vampliers is that the nose design allows them to grab "around" any small to mid sized fasteners. Still, those Bahco pliers look really nice. I love their small long nose pliers. They have this little clip that can be shifted to give the handles a spring-loaded action when necessary. Cool company
I got something similar from Garrett Wade years ago that occasionally saves me from breaking out the screw extractor set or trying to improvise with my vise grips. The Bahco #2979D-180 pliers are similar and worth a look too.

HATTIESBURG, Miss. -- Three starters have quit the Southern Mississippi men's basketball team, coach Larry Eustachy said Thursday.
Eustachy said guard Jarekus Singleton and forwards David Cornwell and Mildon Ambres will transfer for their senior seasons.
"They decided to find places where they will be a better fit," Eustachy told The Clarion-Ledger of Jackson. "It makes room for the new guys and they can find a place where they can have more of an impact."
They were starters on last year's Golden Eagles team that finished 10-21, but Eustachy expected them to play smaller roles next season with nine recruits coming to Hattiesburg.
Singleton averaged 8.3 points and three rebounds last season. Cornwell averaged 7.9 points and four rebounds. Ambres, who transferred from LSU three years ago, averaged 6.4 points and 4.1 rebounds.
Eustachy said Singleton may transfer to William Carey or West Georgia, while Ambres would probably go to Oklahoma City University. It was not known where Cornwell would plan to transfer.

83 US Festival: Days 1-3
'83 US Festival: Days 1-3 (MVD Visual)
Reviewed by Michael Toland, Fri., Dec. 13, 2013
'83 US Festival: Days 1-3(Unuson/Icon/MVD Visual)
A pop-culture joke now for those who remember it at all, the 1983 US Festival assembled an ambitious undertaking. Apple Computer co-founder Steve Wozniak threw "a big party in the middle of nowhere" (ultimately Southern California's Glen Helen Regional Park near San Bernardino), while introducing the masses to cutting-edge technologies. What's remembered here is the music – at least the New Wave, heavy metal, and rock days. Nothing from country day appears, though Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings' sets have been released previously, and R&B was ignored completely. This single DVD provides a time capsule of early-Eighties music, from the Stray Cats and Scorpions to Missing Persons and the Clash in its final performance with Mick Jones. There's also breakout blasts from burgeoning superstars INXS and U2. Nothing from David Bowie, Ozzy Osbourne, the Pretenders, or Van Halen, likely due to clearance issues, which might explain the four Triumph songs. Fair warning: Reminiscences from Wozniak and MTV's Mark Goodman pop up in the middle of performances.

Visual Arts
The Visual Arts program nurtures innate creativity while guiding students in the rigorous cognition necessary to produce a work of art. All students stretch their thinking and participate in the creative process as they work in a variety of 2D and 3D art forms including drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, ceramics and sculpture.
Art in Early Learning is integrated across content areas and levels in order to enhance their learning in a variety of subjects. Students are guided through the planning, preparation and process necessary to complete artwork while gaining self-esteem and nurturing imagination in a relaxed atmosphere. Students experiment with tempera painting, finger-paint, drawing, clay, sculpture, charcoal, printing, paper-mache and water color while discovering line, shape, texture, color and space. They are exposed to the life and styles of artists through the history timeline of art, creating project within a variety of styles.
Middle Learning students improve their fine-motor and thinking skills through projects that range from three-dimensional sculpture, drawing and painting to computer art applications and photography. They learn the elements of art and principles of design necessary to apply formal qualities to their own artwork. As students progress through Middle Learning, they are introduced to a wider variety of art experiences, tools and processes. Lessons often provide interdisciplinary connections to social studies, language arts and science curriculum. They also gain practice in the five steps of art criticism, learning how to discuss the formal qualities of art.
In Upper Learning, visual arts classes offer a chance for students to use critical thinking skills to solve problems as they approach creating artwork in familiar and new mediums. Students are provided opportunities to fearlessly try new avenues of expression or deepen their mastery of their own chosen discipline. Arts-Integrated projects appear throughout the UL curriculum in such diverse arenas as World Languages, geometry, science and literature. Upper learning art students also gain real-world experience curating exhibits for the Galloway Gallery and for exhibitions and arts festivals in the greater Atlanta area.
Early Learning
- Classroom teachers, the art teacher and students all work together in creating a variety of visual arts projects that enhance student's understanding of a variety of topics. Arts integrated topics have crossed into and explored science, social studies, language arts and math.
- Our art teacher lovingly guides students weekly in the art studio as they explore a wide variety of materials and forms in two and three dimensions.
- Student's work is proudly displayed throughout the school and at a special exhibition in the spring.
- Students and teachers attend special exhibits and workshops throughout the year at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta as well as field trips to museums throughout the region including the Booth Museum of Western Art in Cartersville.
Middle Learning
- Grades 5 and 6: In 5th and 6th grade art children work on consolidating and integrating their knowledge of elements and principles of art through project based assignments. We emphasize a two step, process oriented approach in which children are encouraged to first explore new media without concern for final product and then, to step back and revise and edit a final piece work.
- Grades 7 and 8: Students in grades 7 and 8 may elect to continue their exploration of visual arts in quarter long electives on a variety of topics. Past electives in visual arts have included pinhole photography, sculpture and design, recycled art and ceramics.
- Grade 5 - 8: Student's work is proudly displayed throughout the school and at a special exhibition in the spring. Students and teachers attend special exhibits and workshops throughout the year at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta and enjoy field trips to museums throughout the region including the Booth Museum of Western Art in Cartersville.
Upper Learning
- Students in grades 9 – 12 receive Fine Arts credit for a variety of visual arts electives taught by an outstanding Visual Arts Faculty. Classes offered include Introductory classes in 2D and 3D Art, intermediate classes in Painting, Drawing, Sculpture and Ceramics and advanced art classes including AP Art and AP Art History.
- Additional electives in visual arts include Photography 1 and 2, Graphic Design and Film Making.
- A variety of extracurricular opportunities abound for interested UL students. The Art Club works with the art teacher to prepare the annual showcase at the High Museum of Art as well as at various exhibits and festivals throughout the Atlanta area.

The Kaduna State Governor, Muktar Ramalan Yero has visited Aduwan Gida village in Zango Kataf Local Government Area of the state where he promised to bring to book the culprits of last Saturday's attack in which five members of a family were killed.
The attackers reportedly stormed a compound and opened fire on the family members observing the anniversary of the death of the leader of the family. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack.
Kaduna State has seen similar shootings where gunmen raided villages, killing scores in what police often describe as armed robbery attacks.
At the home of the family of the deceased, Mr. Yero condemned the attack, describing it as unwarranted, while giving the assurance that the perpetrators of the act will be apprehended and prosecuted accordingly.
Also at the residence of the traditional ruler of the village, Nuhu Bature, the governor restated government's commitment to safeguarding the lives and property of the entire people of the state.
The governor also visited the surviving victims of the attack at the Saint Louis hospital where he directed that they should be transferred to the 44 Nigerian Army reference hospital for proper medical attention.
While reiterating his administration's commitment to ensuring genuine peaceful co-existence in Kaduna State, Mr. Yero vowed to deal with any person or group found attempting to cause a breach of the peace.

Davis makes his return to the mound
AP Photo/Ross D. Franklin
By David Bearman, ESPN ResearchThe two best pitching staffs in the National League face off this weekend as the Diamondbacks complete their road trip in Atlanta. The Braves' staff, with a mix of young and old, are back where they are used to be with the best ERA in the NL at 3.42, while the Diamondbacks' veteran staff is right behind at 3.56.
|• Angels at White Sox, 8:05 p.m. ET, ESPN
Even though 9-1 Brandon Webb is not scheduled to pitch this weekend, don't expect a lot of scoring with names such as Tom Glavine, Randy Johnson and Micah Owings heading to the hill. Atlanta has won five straight and, like the Phillies and Mets, are within striking distance of division-leading Florida. The weekend series will also feature the return of Doug Davis, who missed a month while being treated for thyroid cancer.
Other matchups this Memorial Day Weekend include the Red Sox at Oakland and a first-place showdown between the White Sox and Angels, with the finale on ESPN Sunday Night Baseball.
Friday• Diamondbacks (Doug Davis) at Braves (Jo-Jo Reyes), 7:35 p.m. ET
Doug Davis makes his first start since the season's first week after surgery to remove a cancerous thyroid. He has had three no-decisions in three starts against the Braves in his career, but has a 2.25 ERA in two starts at Turner Field. Can Davis slow down red-hot Chipper Jones? Jones is 0-for-3 with two walks against Davis. Rookie Jo-Jo Reyes has won two of his four starts this season, holding opponents to two earned runs or less in three of them.
• Reds (Edinson Volquez) at Padres (Shawn Estes), 10:05 p.m. ET
Edinson Volquez has been the lone bright spot in Cincinnati, and if it wasn't for a guy named Brandon Webb, Volquez would be the leader for the NL Cy Young award. Volquez, who had three career wins entering the season, has seven wins in 10 starts, with an MLB-best 1.33 ERA. He outdueled Cliff Lee last week, and has not allowed more than two runs in any start this season. Shawn Estes has made three starts for the Padres this season, allowing no more than two earned runs in any of them. He is 7-2 lifetime against the Reds, including a 4-0 mark since 2003.
• Royals (Zack Greinke) at Blue Jays (Roy Halladay), 7:05 p.m. ET
One starter is 5-1 with the third-best ERA in the AL. The other is 4-5, having allowed at least four earned runs five times this season. History would suggest Zack Greinke wouldn't be the 5-1 starter, but he is. Greinke, who entered the season with a 21-36 career record, has won five of his nine starts, allowing no more than three earned runs in any of them. Roy Halladay is not having the best of seasons, but he is 7-3 with a 3.11 ERA against the Royals in his career.
• Complete list of pitching probables for Friday's games
Saturday• Diamondbacks (Randy Johnson) at Braves (Jorge Campillo), 3:55 p.m. ET
Randy Johnson takes the mound for his 564th career start. He'll face Braves rookie Jorge Campillo, who will be making just his third. In his last start, Campillo pitched six shutout innings against the Mets for his first major league win. Johnson, meanwhile, is 12 shy of 300 for his career. The last time Johnson faced the Braves was May 18, 2004, when he pitched the last perfect game in the majors. That game was also in Atlanta.
• Mariners (Felix Hernandez) at Yankees (Chien-Ming Wang), 1:05 p.m. ET
Chien-Ming Wang started the season 6-0, which included a win over the Mariners on May 2. But he gave up seven earned runs in his last outing for his second consecutive loss. Wang, though, is 7-0 with a 2.39 ERA in seven career starts vs. Seattle. Wang has been especially effective during the day in his career, going 18-8 with a 3.38 ERA. Felix Hernandez, on the other hand, has a 5.92 in four career starts vs. the Yankees.
• Rangers (Scott Feldman) at Indians (Ciff Lee), 7:05 p.m. ET
Cliff Lee tries to rebound from his only bad start of the season. After allowing four earned runs in his first seven starts of the year, Lee allowed five against the Reds last time out. Scott Feldman starts against the Indians for the first time in his career. He has allowed one run in five relief appearances against Cleveland.
• Complete list of pitching probables for Saturday's games
Sunday• Diamondbacks (Micah Owings) at Braves (Tom Glavine), 1:35 p.m. ET
Micah Owings is coming off back-to-back good starts. He recorded a career-high 10 strikeouts last time out against Florida. Before that, he blanked the Rockies over six innings. The Tom Glavine of old seems to be back in Atlanta. After going winless in his first six starts of the season, Glavine picked up career wins 304 and 305 in his last two starts. His 2.49 career ERA against Arizona is the lowest vs. any team he has faced at least five times.
• Red Sox (Jon Lester) at A's (Joe Blanton), 4:05 p.m. ET
Jon Lester makes his first appearance since tossing a no-hitter Monday against Kansas City. Lester will be facing the A's for the third time this season -- he lost to them in Japan, but beat them a week later in Oakland. Joe Blanton is winless over his last four starts. He has faced the Red Sox three times this season.
• Angels (John Lackey) at White Sox (Jose Contreras), 8:05 p.m. ET, ESPN
John Lackey will be making his third start of the season. He has allowed one earned run in each of his first two starts, but has not defeated the White Sox since 2005. Jose Contreras is 3-0 with a 1.35 ERA over his past three starts. One of those wins was last week against the Angels.
• Complete list of pitching probables for Sunday's games
Past Baseball Tonight Clubhouses: May 21 | May 20 | May 19 | May 18 | May 15 | May 14
By Eric Young, ESPNThere are a ton of different reasons why some hitters start off slow at the beginning of the season. One reason why is because some hitters are still in the spring training mentality, a time when the games don't mean anything and you can play around a little bit. You'll see that with younger players who don't know how to handle the transition from spring training to the start of the regular season. You'll see veteran players start to get serious later in spring training to get their swings ready. A big reason why players start off so slow is because of the cold weather that is endemic to certain cities like Chicago, Detroit and Boston. It is tough to get loose in cold weather and to stay loose once you get comfortable. That type of tightness can serve to seriously impact a player whose swing is based on rhythm.

|• Mike Lowell, who went 3-for-4 and scored three runs, hit one of the two grand slams belted by the Red Sox on Thursday. J.D. Drew hit the other.
|• Miguel Batista lasted just three innings against the Tigers, giving up seven hits and five runs in a 9-2 loss. Batista has now lost four of his last five starts.
|• Stephen Drew had a tough day at the plate, going 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in a 4-0 loss. He also stranded three runners.
By Pedro Zayas, ESPNdeportes.comGoing back to the mechanics from his rookie days, along with some help from Baltimore pitching coach Rick Kranitz, is paying off for Daniel Cabrera. Despite a 5.00 ERA in his rookie year, Cabrera went 12-8 for the Orioles in 2004. The following three seasons his record dropped to a combined 28-41 with a 4.99 ERA. "The first thing we did was that when the new pitching coach got here, he asked me what things I wanted to work on. I told him I wanted to pitch the way I pitched before, when I got here to the major leagues," Cabrera, who pitches Sunday at Tampa Bay, told ESPNdeportes.com. "He told me: 'OK, let's work on that.' He got a lot of video from the time I first got here in 2004 and 2005." The 26-year-old pitcher thinks highly of Kranitz, whom Cabrera partly credited for this season's 5-1 record and 3.48 ERA. In his last start, Tuesday against the New York Yankees, Cabrera allowed two runs over seven innings for his eighth quality start in a row. "He's really good," Cabrera said of Kranitz. "We've been working really hard and I think that's why I can have that success." Orioles manager Dave Trembley sees a more mature Cabrera these days. "The guy, from Day One in spring training, has come into his own. He has a purpose to what he does. He doesn't get easily rattled," Trembley said. "It's called growing up, it's called experience, it's called maturity, it's called having confidence." "Yes, I think I have matured a lot because, when you get here really young, you tend to lose focus," Cabrera said. "Now, I am very focused in my job. I know what it is I have to do to improve and adjust."

BEIRUT, Lebanon — This week, four Lebanese men stand trail in absentia at The Hague for the 2005 murder of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
The fugitive defendants are allegedly members of the Lebanese militant organization Hezbollah. The Shia group has denied any involvement in the bombing that targeted Hariri's motorcade nine years ago, killing 22 and wounding more than 200.
Hariri's death caused political upheaval in Lebanon. Early suspicions of involvement by the Syrian regime, a staunch Hezbollah ally, led to mass street demonstrations in 2005 that put an end to Syria's 29-year military presence in Lebanon.
Close to a decade later, Lebanon remains unstable, with sporadic fighting between Sunni and Shia militants and an increasing number of targeted car bombings in both Sunni and Shia areas. Lebanese are divided as to whether the trial will be good for the country. Many worry it will simply heighten tensions.
GlobalPost asked four Beirut residents what they think.
Khouloud Sukkarieh
Civil rights activist
"I think the trial will increase the gap between parties if it is not true and fully just because this event has divided Lebanese people harshly and it will continue to do so. The reaction to the verdict could be violence."
Elie Sokhen
Mobile phone salesman
"I think the trial is good for Lebanon because it means we can finally find the truth. It's a serial killing; it's not just one murder. It started with Hariri, or maybe even before this in the 1980's, so it is good for us to know the truth behind who is killing us, who is killing this series of leaders. It is a relief for us. Let's hope we can get to those who did it."
Farag (Last name withheld)
Retired police officer
"This killing was not committed by Hezbollah. Absolutely not! Hariri was loved by all Shia. He did many good things for Lebanon. He built schools and developed infrastructure and united the Lebanese people. Because of this the Shia began to love him, but Israel began to see him as an enemy.
"If you want to make a problem in Lebanon, you take a man that everyone loves and kill him. This is the work of Israel!"
Rami Khouri
Director, Issam Fares Institute, American University of Beirut
"The Hariri trial will not cause any significant change in the situation in Lebanon today as this case has already been ongoing for many years. But it will have a polarising effect on the issues surrounding the case. It will no doubt intensify an already existing dispute."

- Five Key Strategies to Launching Your Business in Africa
Posted by : Amanda Stein Thursday, December 5, 2013
As an area for launching new businesses, Africa holds the unique position of offering wonderful areas and many contacts with both African-centered commerce and companies who have placed locations abroad. The best part about starting a business in Africa is that you will be able to get your foot in the door with one of the places that is growing at an extremely fast rate. Not only will you be able to find cheap labor, but you will also be able to find a large number of people that are willing to purchase your products and services. Business strategists like Mark Bouri have succeeded in Africa by understanding the nature of business within the continent, which can sometimes be unique when compared to most other places in the world. Here are just a few strategies to help entrepreneurs place themselves on the road to success with a new business in Africa.
1. Understand the history of the country in Africa to which you are going to launch your business
Just as a business centered in Bologna may have different challenges than one centered in London, and one business in Berlin might have totally separate challenges to one in Paris, so too can the city and country within Africa where you choose to launch a business have its own unique environment and challenges. This is why it is important to understand the history of the country to which you are going: As a country, Mali may have quite different business methods than South Africa, for example, and vice-verse. How business works in one country may be different in another, which is essential to know when you are planning to setup your business somewhere within this large continent.
2. Know the social dynamic you'll be working with
Different African countries can have different social dynamics, and this can mean that conducting business may have different connotations for different clients. In countries where matrilineal structures are in place, in which women might conduct more business than men, or where familial ties determine business contacts, educating oneself on how networking systems work and making key contacts can do wonders for a business. For this reason, it is important that you hire a local professional before you move your business to a specific country. This professional will be able to properly work with the government and others in order to ensure a successful launch of your business.
3. Plan a vacation for the country you're hoping to work in
One of the best ways to get to know a region for business is to have fun there. Plan a week-long vacation in the country or city and really get to know the people in the place your company will have its setting. See how other businesses are run and speak to business owners, and you will undoubtedly get a sense of how you might add to an economy with the right product. A short vacation might also give you the opportunity to find a specific region of the country where you should establish your business.
4. Understand the climate where you'll be
As a continent, Africa primarily ranges North to South (as compared to North America's or Europe's East to West) and as such has many, many different climates even within the span of a few hundred miles. South Africa can resemble the seasons experienced by Europe; Mali can have the scorching temperatures of a Saharan landscape. Climate can do much to affect the product you'll be creating; if you're in a place with seasonal flooding, don't expect your computer business to last long! Conversely, if you're in a place without much rainfall, you may find that supplying bottled water to a city is a huge earner.
5. Understand the economy of the country where you'll conduct business
A humorous scene in the classic memoir-novel "Out of Africa" by Karen Blixen notes that when the author arrived in Africa to meet her husband, she found that he had invested all the family's money in raising coffee beans. This would be fine if the land they owned were good for raising coffee, but they quickly found that it would have been better for raising livestock.
What this lesson can tell business owners in Africa is is to look for supply, demand, and region. If you're planning on raising coffee plants, so much the better, as Africa has many wonderful places to do so. Just remember to know that you're in the right place, and your business will prosper. Africa is a place of many dynamic cultures and many dynamic environments. Being a business-owner in Africa is a lot like being a Navy pilot. As soon as you understand the dynamics of the airspace you'll be traveling through, you'll do fine.

Love this idea! I just spent all day at the school taking pictures for our newsletter and auction. I would love to have the printable, but it says "no longer available?"
@Micca – I just tweaked things a bit with the download. I hope this helps, but if you're still experiencing problems, be sure to let me know!
that's such a cute idea! i'm sure every teacher would love to get something like that. you're right, a photo collage lets the person know you put thought and effort into the gift.
have a great weekend!
simona @ artsy ants
thank you so much for this printable. it will be put to good use. 🙂
This idea is soo cute! If one of my students gave that to me, it would just make my day:)
Amy I love this idea! Do you mind if I include it in my Teacher Appreciation week idea post? Please let me know if it's okay!

SEOUL, April 24(Reuters) - South Korean steelmaker POSCO reported an 11 percent drop in quarterly operating profit on Thursday, missing estimates, as China's slowing economy curbed demand for steel.
POSCO, the world's fifth-biggest steelmaker, posted an operating profit of 518 billion Korean won ($498.29 million) in the January to March quarter, below a consensus forecast of 531 billion won from Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
This compared with 581 billion won in operating profit a year earlier and 488 billion won the preceding quarter.
Global steel producers are weighed down by an oversupply of steel and reduced customer demand, especially from China, the world's biggest consumer and producer of steel.
Before the earnings announcement, shares in POSCO, in which Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway owns around 5 percent, ended flat versus the market's 0.1 percent fall. ($1 = 1039.5500 Korean won) (Reporting by Hyunjoo Jin; Editing by Miral Fahmy)


text: ... I couldn't remember if this one customer of mine had wanted services year-round or not but as I passed by it sure looked tall, so I thought I better cut it before they get mad. So then I'm about 2/3 or 3/4 ways through cutting and the husband comes out and like, what am I doing? Well I'm like this and that, and he walks back in to ask his wife, turns out they didn't want me to cut it year-round lol. Ok, so I said look, I'm already almost through here, if you don't mind I will finish cutting so it doesn't look half-done but then I'll pack up and leave so I'm not weedeating and stuff. He was cool, brought me a soda out. lol

Zen Forrest proves that healthy food can be exciting and that there's far more to the regional pupu platter than Chinese.
By BARBARA L. FREDRICKSEN
Published July 30, 2004
Many's the time I've looked wistfully southward when Times food critic Chris Sherman has written about exotic Asian and fusion restaurants in Pinellas and Hillsborough counties.
Sure, west Pasco has a couple of Thai and Japanese restaurants, and, arguably, all too many Chinese places.
But what about the rest of Asia?
It's at Zen Forrest, a wonderful, 9-month-old pan-Asian restaurant on Rowan Road just north of State Road 54.
Zen Forrest has Chinese, Thai and Japanese, but it also has Korean and Vietnamese, specialties from Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan, and fusion dishes, all with a common theme: flavorful and healthy (low fat, low cholesterol, no MSG).
The preparation is under the caring hand of the owners, half-brothers Patrick Lau, 31, and Victor Wang, 32, who interpret Asian food as a way to heal the body and nourish the soul.
"It's more healthy eating, without losing the great taste," said Lau. "You are what you eat. If you eat well, you will feel well."
Wang explains it in a message to patrons in the Zen Forrest menu: "Studies have shown that many human ailments are caused by a lack of or excess of certain nutrients. Various food have been proven to help prevent many illnesses." He has read extensively on the subject and spent years as a restaurant consultant in New York and Asia to perfect the art of making nutritious food with exciting tastes.
The results are artful assemblages of fresh vegetables, seafood, meats, jasmine and wild rice, herbs and touches of ginseng to please the palate and the body.
So far, Wang said, the favorite dish at Zen Forrest has been Bul Go Gi ($12.50), a slightly sweet Korean dish of tender sirloin marinated in sesame/soy and garlic, cooked in a scorching pan and served with sauteed bean sprouts, julienned carrots, peppers and other veggies, and either rice or potatolike mashed taro root.
My favorite lunch is the Vietnamese Vermicelli Crunch Salad ($6), a refreshing mix of crisp vegetables, herbs, tendrils of chicken (or shrimp or calamari) and thin rice noodles, with nuoc cham dressing made with nuoc mam, a delicately flavored anchovie-based liquid that's subtle and savory.
My mom's favorite is sauteed spinach noodles ($9 vegetarian; with chicken or shrimp, $11.50) in sweet rice wine with vegetables and sprouts. She swears she could eat it every day.
For vegetarians, there are lightly fried tofu steaks with shiitake and straw mushrooms ($10) in a luscious sauce; sharp and snappy Korean Kim Chi ($3.50), a hot pickled cabbage that can make your eyes water; Japanese edamame ($3.50), soy bean pods with ginger, spice and coarse sea salt; fried rice with ginseng ($8.50), and a raft of other exciting plates.
For traditionalists, the names are familiar, but Wang's version is new and fresh: General Tso's Chicken ($6.50 lunch, $11 dinner), with lightly battered strips of chicken in a pool of dark, hot and spicy sauce, with rice; lo mein ($7.50) done in a sizzling wok and topped with crisp sprouts; and Thai coconut curry with lemongrass infused chicken ($11) or shrimp ($13).
"We have people who have tried everything on the menu and they say, "I'm ready for anything. Make me something,' " Wang said. "I try not to go too wild, but doing something new makes my day interesting."
You can make a good meal from appetizers: crispy Zen Forrest rolls with lemon mustard diping sauce ($3.50), which are best hot from the kitchen; Malaysian Satay chicken with peanut sauce ($5.50); Chinese pot stickers with garlic soy dipping sauce ($5.50); or Zen's own whimsical Sushi De Cowboy, a steak and potato roll with green salsa as dipping sauce ($6.50).
Don't pass up the soups: a wonton with both pork and spinach/watercress-filled wontons in a smooth vegetable consomme, or the thick chicken rice soup made from toasty wok-fried rice slow simmered with chicken and a bit of coconut. Each is $3.50 a bowl and filling enough for a light meal.
The brothers bought the restaurant two years ago from their mother, Ally Yip, who had owned and operated the Golden Wok there for 15 years but was ready to retire. They continued the Golden Wok for six months. Then they decided Pasco had enough Chinese restaurants and decided to capitalize on Wang's New York and Asian experience and go for something different.
"We closed for five months to renovate," Lau said. They painted the walls forest green, arranged a few evocative decorator pieces on the walls and put in a hammered copper leaf fountain, evoking a basic Zen principle of simplicity. Outside the entrance is an orderly but profuse garden, a fitting preview for the restaurant's restrained interior.
For a while, Zen Forrest was takeout only. In October, the owners opened the main dining area, with seats for 40 or 50 people. The entire restaurant will seat up to 113 and will be opened as the clientele increases.
"A lot of people don't know we're here," Lau said. "They don't know what kind of restaurant we are now."
But they're learning.
On Valentine's day, Wang prepared a $50-a-person dinner featuring foods that are aphrodisiacs - "different spices and how they're put together," Lau explains.
"We were surprised how well it turned out," Lau said. "We're going to do more of these."
WHAT: Zen Forrest pan-Asian restaurant
WHERE: 4148 Rowan Road (half a block north of State Road 54), New Port Richey
WHEN: 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Lunch menu, 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
MENU: Lunch $5.50 to $7; dinner, $7.50 to $14.50. Special pris fixe> meals from time to time.

As someone who spends a stupid amount of time dealing with migraines, I have also done an amazing amount of reading and study on the subject. Most of it has to help get rid of the problem, to prevent triggers and so on. But ever curious, I have also looked at the notable stories around the problem. One such story is that Lewis Carroll was plagued with migraines. In the end, he used the post dormal or 4th stage of the migraine to write. He used that confusion and feeling of weakness and oddity to create. One such work is rumoured to be Alice in Wonderland. So instead of allowing stress, pain and frustration infuse with my chaotic mind, I took a leaf from Lewis Carroll's book.
This is without edit what my mind felt and looked like on a day of migraines. While it may not be a literary classic in the making, it certainly charts the confusion I often feel.
Photo: Toa Heftiba
Two things really have me by the shirt-coat. They make my life far more miserable than the physical pains. They are in my head, which is most galling of all.
They are my anxiety, which I can fight. And the migraines, which I cannot.
I take off my glasses and wipe them again. Nope, that shimmering aura is still there. The sweet tang of disappointment starts to bubble up within. I had such plans for today. Today was going to be the day where I got a lot of work done and cleaned up the mess in the house. It was going to be the day that I caught up on case studies and started working on wonderful things.
Instead, I can feel the disconnection between me and my vision so keenly. I can feel that rising fear of my eyes failing to work start to bring the fear. I stretch. I swallow pain killers to ward off the worst of the pain. I always drink water. I shove what I can down my gullet to make sure it isn't my gut microbiology.
I do what I can to stem the rising tide of annoyance, acceptance and pain.
I know the drill. I oscillate between throwing the day away under the covers or hoping prevention actually works. Whether I go with it or I fight it, it has won. It sucks out the joy, the productivity and the hope. It tells me that it is firmly in charge.
Migraines don't seem like such a big deal. They aren't cancer or a life long struggle against illness or injury. But if you live in a faraway fog for days at a time, life becomes quite difficult.
But it isn't the pain. Or the threat of violent nausea. Or even the ever present "you are here but your eyes are not" feeling that accompanies it all that bothers me the most. It's the confusion. It's that mixed up electricity that makes me forgot the name of TV characters in favourite shows yet reminds me of this fact as I lay prone. It is that words are so swirling and distended, my sentences are nonsensical when I go back to read them. That it takes me six attempts to find the word bloat and even though the spell check agrees, it still looks alien and unfriendly.
The difficulty of course is that my brain wants to tell stories at the same time. The writer in my can't string a sentence together and relies completely on auto-pilot is fascinated with this foreign landscape. The disconnection from reality creates a playground for my imagination. It hates being here but it loves it at the very same time. Can I connect rabbits to glue and make a working analogy? Can I make the sound of the keyboard as it clacks become something worthwhile? Will I read this in a day and despair at my obviously scrambled mind or will it be that moment so incredibly pure it emulates my writing heroes?
Or would, if only I could remember who they are.
This is like a small trip to madness in an unplanned, unmeasured dose. It is not on my times. There is no drug or alcohol to blame. It is dopamine and serotonin cascading into the wrong places and starving the rest. It's fuzzy and it's ordinary.
And it's robbing me of time and patience.
As well as the lines of TS Eliot that might somehow explain where the words have gone, if only I could confirm with my memory that was indeed the poet and it was indeed poetry I sought.
Migraines sit in the head. It grabs hold of the shoulders, the neck and scalp. And it squeezes tight. So tight my eyes threaten to pop and my head threatens to allow my brain to escape. This focus on escape over excape, threatens over theatene, is doing wonders for my deleted (or is that depleted?) confidence.
Am I etherised upon a table? I might be… something is becoming clear…ish.
Twist, crack, thank you back. Now take this misery with you.

Regal Floral Brass Lion by merimaskWatch
©2013-2017 merimask
My newest Regal Lion. I wasn't sure when I got these brass pieces from the caster that they could be used (they were bigger and thicker than I thought they would be) but I was able to mold one nicely, and it makes a bold, elegant statement as a center focal piece on this lion mask. Made entirely by me (except for the brass piece. Lead/nickel free, made in the USA)...leather, acrylic paint, love.
Available right now, here: www.etsy.com/listing/173511665…

oooh I like that one. very majestic!
me gusta mucho
Really amazing! I'm just in awe at the beauty of your craftsmanship... just... wow!
Dude, i swear some day I'm just gonna buy your whole store.
LITERALLY your whole store.
Say, how many banks do you think I'll need to rob to afford this?
I was going for two, possibly three.
This is so beautiful!!!!
You have achieved epic levels of regalness. Which isn't a word, but totally should be.
I'm in love with these regal masks... They are completely stunning!!
The brass filigree flows so elegantly into the rest of the mask! And I love how you faded in brass paint on the edges, it gives this a beautiful, antique look!
Very stylish! I like how the curves of the piece play off the curves in the mask.
I think so too! I thought the brass piece was smaller when I ordered them, but now that I know I can use them, I actually like them this size.
That's beautiful!

Hello, my sweeties! If you did not hear about Martofchina, I would like to introduce to you to this Chinese store. I got a collar blue trench coat for such a low price (on sale right now). The clothes are cheap and the shipping was quite fast, with a twist of the unexpected. I think it looks a bit different from what I saw on the picture. Anyway because I am a big fan of electric blue, I could not complain.
