Get The Cave [ALL] Trailer off WP (40mb)
The Cave is a puzzling adventure game so odd and compelling that it can only be described as odd and compelling.
If you enjoy rappelling, spelunking and dark rocky caverns then be prepared to be disappointed! And then intrigued. And then AMAZED. And then disappointed again, but only for a minute. Then relieved, amused, bewildered, excited and satisfied. In that order.

WCSU to commemorate Veterans Day with a week of activities
DANBURY, CONN. — The Western Connecticut State University Student Veterans Organization has planned a number of activities to commemorate Veterans Day throughout the week that starts on Monday, Nov. 7, and ends on Veterans Day, Friday, Nov. 11, 2011. Unless otherwise indicated, all events will take place on the university's Midtown campus, 181 White St. in Danbury. The public is invited.
At 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 8, a panel of veterans will discuss their real-life experiences in the Student Center Theater. At 8 p.m., "The Hurt Locker" will be screened, after which attendees will be given the opportunity to ask the veterans questions.
At 2 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 10, the "Being Home" PowerPoint presentation and panel discussion will be in the Student Center Theater.

HOLLYWOOD stars Cillian Murphy and Tom Hardy were in Bolton town centre filiming scenes for a BBC period drama.
The British pair, who have previously appeared together in blockbusters Inception and The Dark Knight Rises, were filming scenes for the second series of Peaky Blinders.
BBC cameras were rolling in Le Mans Crescent, behind Bolton Town Hall, today.
A BBC source said the section of road had been chosen as it "resembles a London street".
The road was cordoned off, with vintage cars parked on the side and male cast members wearing caps and carrying umbrellas.
Peaky Blinders is a gangster family epic set in Birmingham in 1919.
It depicts a gang who sew razor blades into the peaks of their caps to blind people.
Murphy returns to the show as lead character Tommy Shelby, while Hardy is joining the show for the first time for the coming series.

2011 Toyota Avalon
robin5 Posts: 19You have GOT to be kidding. 1000 yards???? My Highlander was good at calling me in the middle of a parking lot when I couldn't see it. Just pushed the panic button. But....
You brought up two issues. One is a remote start. I never had a car with a remote start. You stated, one you use the remote starts then open the doors the car stops. From what you said I suspect you have a short. Is this an after market install? I'm curious. I know if you want a remote start and if you ordered it then by all means it should work. Especially if Toyota installed it. IF you had one installed by someone other than the dealer then that's another story.
About tires. Tires can effect the ride, and road noise and gas mileage. It can effect it a lot, even the handling of the car. Certain tires are soft and ride more quite but suffer on worse gas mileage. My Bridgestone tires are noisy, I suspect Michelins would be better but more costly. I really don't know what kind of tires I will buy next. I hope people on our blog will have something to say about the tires they buy. Hope this helps,0
Have posted this before but... I on my third set of Nexen tires on my 2007 Limited. For the money they work well. A little over half the price of Michelin and the ride and traction are similar. They don't last quite as long but again, at 60% of the cost they don't need to last as long. And at least one has a nail and/or a patch at replacement time anyway. I like having new tires every 18 months, so... just a thought.0
I'll have to remember that name. Never heard of them. Can you tell me how they rate to Bridgestone? My new Avalon came with Bridgestone. The ride is a hard ride. I suspect a softer tire is needed to be smoother. I really don't know much about tires. I have not price a set yet. I have only 14, 500 miles on my car. I did pick up one nail and they plugged it. Small nail hole.0
ncee Posts: 419I went with an aftermarket remote starter, and for the most part, I'm happy with it. It's not as straight forward as the one I had on my 2008 Avalon, but nice. I can start it from my office, and the car is often 100 - 125 yards from my office. I do need to make sure it's a pretty straight line of sight, but this I can do from here.
My 2008's had a nice LED screen that had a car, and it looked like the exhaust was working when it started, which saved my the trouble of having to go outside to check on it.
As for tires, I know they make a difference, and yes, you WILL give up something. They are ether quiet, or get good mileage, it's hard to get ones that you'll get both.
My snow tires are quieter then the OEM tires that came with the 2011. but yes, my mileages goes down 4-7 MPG.
I am sure that I am spoiled. The Avalon is very smooth and quiet, yet I'm looking for something that is even more quiet and smoother.
Around town and short drives, I have no complaints, it's the long drives that get to me. The noise level after a few hundred miles gets to the point where I need to have the radio at 15 - 20 to hear clearly, and well, even though I'm hearing the radio and not the tire noise, I'm now hearing all of it, at a pretty high volume. No this isn't as big a deal when I'm driving by myself, but when folks are in the car and you want to talk, you have to talk a bit on the loud side, and this is with the radio off.
I'd love to drive with a gauge in the car that checks the noise level in a car, to see what this is at when driving 65-75 MPH.
I do like the 2 years 24,000 FREE maintenance, I just wish it was more. I'm at 9 months, 20,000 miles so far, so it's looking like this will end up being a 24,000 miles 1 year FREE warranty. I will likely end up owning this car a little longer then most, as I'm going to wait for the 2013 Avalon to see if it's all the hype that's going around. And from what's being said at the dealer level, the 2013 won't be available until spring of 2013, which means another whole year and 35,000 +- miles more on this car before I trade.
Oh [non-permissible content removed], it's time to get back to work.
- Pack the car for several deliveries
- Head to the state capital to cash in a winning lottery ticket
- make some sales calls while up there
- get back to work on 2011 taxes
I hope you don't think this is an advertisement but in regard to the tire question and selection, I have found over the years when I replace my vehicle tires on my 4x4, ZX, Lexus and most likely now Avalon - unless I trade it in - the most informative and rate competitive site I have found has been www.tirerack.com. The folks at Tire Rack have quantified the variables, with your input on the home page asking questions as to make, year, model - purpose of snow or non snow use, ranking desired qualities of mileage, quietness, etc.
Then possible choices are given of tires available. I find the reader comments and rankings really helpful because feedback from the street of the tires also weigh-in my deceision to purchase either from them or locally. Check it out as all these tire companies, both in and out of country have so many different compounds and changing of compounds within the manufacturing process that sometimes I have read some variations are noticeable from the users purchasing the same tires but at different times with different dates of manufacture.0
What is the best price I can expect for a Avalon 2011 or 2011 base model with leather seats. I am good with spending about 28,000 to 30,000 for the car. Can get get a Avalon in that price range? If so tell me what to look for as I want to buy this week.0
Entirely possible if the variables line up with you and local dealer and if not you may need to travel. The local dealer here came under new owner management, has a new store nearing completion and with his affiliated dealerships turns over 3.5 to 3.8K units a year.
You could place an internet RFP out using this website and see what proposals do come up? I bought a base model Avalon in Dec of 2010 and it was just a fuzz North of $30k before trade-in ICT and application of taxes. It took me all of 1 1/2 hours starting/finishing paperwork to them detailing, my inspection, their fill-up and my drive off the lot once I arrived. My salesperson was/is a veteran long timer working there. I understand the new owner went to a salary for salespeople as opposed to the total commission as was before. I would not have dealt with the dealership before that with old owner but I had purchased three (3) used Lexus vehicles with the new owner at one of his other stores and had good experience from sale to service each time. Hope this helps.0
I don't mind traveling as that is no big deal if its a Southwest Airline city like Chicago or to STL our Omaha.0
nvbanker Posts: 7,285Tires have been a puzzling issue for me. I have always been partial to Michelins. Their only flaw is the sidewalls tend to crack easily in the dry heat here. Only a problem if you don't drive much and they age quite a bit. My 05 LS430 had Dunlop 5000s tires, and were great. So when I wore them out, I bought another set of Dunlops, however, these were a different, directional tire, and they were horribly noisy! So bad, that after 10,000 miles, I changed them out to Michelins. Much quieter.
My 09 LS460 came with Bridgestones, and they were excellent. SO, when I burned those off, I bought a nearly identical set of Bridgestones, so as not to screw up the dynamics. Successful this time.
But, it's hard to figure out why some tires are so noisy and some are not, at least to me.0
Do a search on Google and you will find Nexen.com. Go to it and put in your ZIP code, you will find the dealers nearest your location. The new tire for Avalon is the n6000, I have n5000 on mine, a prior issue of the same tire. You can buy them for $110 or less plus tax, etc., good Michelins are about $180 each around here, so... I had always been a Michelin buyer until I used the first set of Nexen. Have also used Toyo, harsh ride/great traction, on a v6 Honda and Bridgestones on my kid's Nissan 4 cyl, rode fine/no unusual noise. Hope this helps.....0
Just got the same brand put on my Escape this morning. VERY economical, and the tire shop recommended them over several others that were more expensive. Mine are SUV tires, but they are way, way quieter than the (horrible) Continentals I had before... so quiet, in fact, that driving home, I almost felt like there was something wrong with my car due to the lack of the road growl. Also got good reviews for performance in the snow.
They seem to be a good value.

jimd422 Posts: 1I've had my 2011 Avalon Limited for 1 year (only 10K miles & in garage kept / showroom condition - no accidents) and the door hinge makes a noticeable noise when it swings open & closed. ALSO - my steering wheel makes a clicking noise when I make wide turns -- not with normal steering or changing lanes, etc. Both noises started in the last 2-3 months. Does anyone have these problems0
The slight movement in my steering column is a problem that drives me crazy. It happens more now and it doesn't happen all the time. I'm the only one that drives so of course it ONLY drives me crazy. Not to wish you bad luck but I was hoping someone else had this problem.
I'm due for an oil change and I will mention it and the wipers then. All my doors close great. Really tight. I suspect your door problem is an isolated one. Let me know more about the noise from your steering column. My noise is almost like it's loose, I do NOT think it's in the front in.
My car is also show room condition, gararge kept with 14,700 miles on it and of course No Accidents of any kind. Not as much as a door dent.0
beekeroo Posts: 4To jimd422: Hello. I had a driver door clicking in my 2011 Avalon. I took it to the service area and the guy who greeted me knew just what the problem was. He returned with his little socket wrench and tightened a nut that had worked loose. Total estimated time from drive-in to drive-out: 90 seconds. No problem; no charge! Good luck!0
musicislife Posts: 16This is nitpicking an otherwise terrific car, but does anyone else think the gas cap tether is too short? I'm seriously thinking of cutting it off. Every time I go to replace the cap, the tether pulls the filler door closed onto my hand. It makes it difficult to put the cap on. There's a crimp in the tether that I think shouldn't have been put there.0
Yes, Musicislife...It was the first thing I noticed on filling my Avi tank up a few days later after driving it off the dealer lot and leaving them my Lex. My Lex had a tubular plastic tether which was longer and the sheet metal holder for the cap was actually threaded so you could firmly engage the filler cap to the protrusion as opposed to an unthreaded metal holder that sometimes allows the cap to fall out...It's a another little trade-off in manufacturing quality and a little annoying but the Avi is still a better value to me.0
bmpbmp Posts: 8Don't know if this has been posted, but just noticed that the 2011 Avalon EPA estimates were 20/29, and the EPA estimates for the 2012 Avy is 19/28. Thought it kind of interesting, considering it's the exact same car.0
I think EPA changed the standards on the MPG. To make it more strick. I'm not sure but I think that happened. My car gets good MPG for the size but I rarley see 27 or 28 MPG.
On another note: The last oil change (15,000) I mentioned the wiper arms, and the small noise coming from the steering column. They fixed the wiper arms but said they could not find any problem with the steering. I tried and tried to see if the wiper arms made any noise. No noise at all. Such a nice fix. Like someone stated, it's logged into he national data books on how to fix this problem. The new arms seem to cure up, I don't think the old ones did. I think they where straight across. Still hidden, still looks good but quite.
I continue to keep all records including every fill up. My computer continues to be off by one MPG, sometimes two. That was discussed in here before and most people agreed it probably was me. So when I keep my records I now write both MPG down. Just a personal thing to do and should help the sell of my 2011 Avalon.
Hope this information helps all who own these cars. I still give the Avalon 5 stars, smooth ride, plenty of power and a whole LOT of ROOM. Very nice car with no squeaks, noises of any kind. Very quite car. A looker too.
Oh on the MPG, I NEVER, I repeat NEVER get under 23 MPG. NEVER!0
Rained today and I love the Silence. The new wipers are great and EVERYONE should request theirs to be changed.0
http://www.carfax.com/VehicleHistory/p/Report.cfx?partner=DVW_1&vin=4T1BK3DB0BU3- 85471
Down there in the "Detailed History" section, it shows location of purchase, service performed in two states, then finally the sale to a dealer via auction. The history on this vehicle looks really odd to me, and almost suspect. Of what I can't say. It just looks fishy to me.
Does anyone understand or have insight to this report?
Short background: On the 29th, my 1996 XLS was totaled after a deer struck the front end. 207,501 miles, 148k by me since 2000. It was supposed to get me through until I completed school in twenty months, but I guess not. So, I'm on the search to replace it. There's no rush, but I'm trying to gather as much information as I can prior to purchase.
You might pop over to our Real-World Trade-In Values discussion - people in the biz hang out there and can help you interpret the report info.

I've been to 100's of auctions. Back in the days when we didn't have a Carfax report.
I believe this is a repossessed car you're looking at. Repo's are nothing to be alarmed about and by law have to be brought to the auction or sold by the lender. Most the time banks simply take them to the auction for quick sale. It's fast with no hassles. All NEW Toyota dealers are required to buy so many "program" cars a year at auction and sometimes buy repo's because of the price. I suspect this is NOT a program car because of the low miles. My thoughts are this car was a repo, bought by the dealer then put up for auction. However with that said, I would have an expert check the car out for damage. Damage meaning paintwork, wreck, etc. People THINK all damages are reported on Carfax. This is not always the case. I can give examples of buying cars recently, seeing paintwork and it's not on the Carfax. Your main concern should be bodywork. Anything mechanical can be fixed under warranty, *if it's had no damage*.
This is not a "stay away sign" by the Carfax. It is only a sign to take a MUCH closer look. You could ask, but most dealers would say anything to get you comfortable and I mean tell you literally anything. I was a wholesaler, a person whose specialty was going to auctions and then selling to dealers. Therefore, I never had to retail cars. I'm glad I wasn't a part of that part of the business.
One reason for paint work check. Manufactory warranty stays with the car no matter who owns it. The warranty is only void if it's been in an accident or abused. I was in the car business off and on all my life. I hope this helps,0
Another take on this, after reading the report -
It was a fleet vehicle owned by a corporation in California. This doesn't mean the car LIVED in California - only that the corporation is in California. It could have been a corporate vehicle issued to a salesperson (which would explain why there were two services in Eastern states). If the employee to which it was issued left the company, or the company discontinued their "car program," they wouldn't bother shipping the vehicle elsewhere. They'd just send it to auction and be done with it.
Either mine or nan48's explanation is plausible. I'd still post in the discussion I linked to - some people there have access to info other than Carfax (auction info) that might be more detailed.

I would be leary of the vehicle, if it was me buying the car. Look at "how many" dealers have had this vehicle all within such LOW miles. Ask yourself "why hasn't anyone kept it?" Plus the mileage may not be true especially going from dealer to dealer. Each state has different "mileage" keeping ways, some are stricter than others. I don't know how strict each state is: PA, MI, WA... that's a lot of states. Mileage could be "NOT" true.
I agree with kirstrie. I'm in the South. If I had to guess, I would say California would be stricter than GA. or SC, TN, etc. I would like to also note, this is a low mile car so my guess it's a repo. ONLY a guess. You did good by checking the carfax.0
I didn't notice the amount of dealers this car has been to. My wife carefully looked over the carfax and pointed it out AFTER I wrote what I did. For me, I would not buy a car that's been passed around like this car. NO WAY! These are hard times, good deals are out there. In fact maybe my wife will sell her 2011 Avalon. Maybe! Again hope this helps,0
johnc2012 Posts: 1With the Toyota remote start, the engine will shut off when you press the button on your remote to open the doors. The one I had on my Sequoia had this. Just bought an Avalon and am having a different one fitted, still through the dealer though. Chrysler is different; when you open the doors and turn the key in the ignition the engine will still run. (Or press the stop/start button on the keyless entry and go.) The dealer said my new remote starter will have a separate fob (the Sequoia's was built into the key fob) and he said it will start the car from 800 feet. Only time will tell.0
Thanks for the input on the carfax report I posted. I'll check out the real-world forums!0
More thoughts: Given the distance from PA to WA, with a stop in MI... this car has travelled more miles on a car hauler than it has been driven. Why haul it WA to sell it? It isn't worth that much more..... And this dealer has had it since Christmas, only put a few miles on it, look at the odometer. No one DRIVES this car. Why not? Find both original key fobs, the OManual, spare tire (check the tire well for anything unusual) and the original floor mats. They all should be new looking, but original.
The good news is that the dealer will certify it and you have a full warranty..... No one is scared of it.... sure is odd, though...0
All questions I've been going over myself!0

AMMAN, Jordan (AP) — Britain's Prince Charles and his wife on Wednesday heard tales of hardship from Syrian refugees in Jordan and saw the difficult conditions for themselves.
Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, spent an hour at a U.N. refugee agency holding center, King Abdullah Gardens, in the northern town of Ramtha, near the border with Syria.
Speaking with refugees, they heard about the difficulties of fleeing Syria and the challenges faced by the families, the aid groups helping them and Jordan, which now hosts about 450,000 displaced Syrians.
The royal couple was invited into a trailer where a 55-year-old man, who gave only his first name, Musa, has lived with his wife and five children since last September. He said he was arrested and tortured for writing anti-regime poetry before escaping to Jordan.
Responding to a question from Charles about how to end the ordeal, he said, "The Syrian people are everybody's problem now. Help us."
Charles expressed "enormous respect" for what Jordan and the humanitarian community have done for refugees and praised the "remarkable" work of the agencies on the ground, mentioning the U.N.'s refugee body, UNHCR.
The royal visit did not include the main Zaatari tent camp because of security concerns. Sporadic rioting has broken out at the facility over its difficult desert conditions.
Also in Jordan Wednesday, UNHCR chief Antonio Guterres urged stepped up international support, warning that funds received so far were insufficient to aid the spiraling numbers of Syrians fleeing the civil war.
Up to 8,000 people a day fled last month, an increase from 3,000 a day in December.
Guterres told reporters in Amman that UNHCR was anticipating that refugee numbers could "double, even triple" by the year's end, threatening regional security.
The U.N. refugee agency chief said he discussed the spike in refugee numbers with Jordan's Prime Minister Abdullah Ensour.
He said that his agency was working with Jordan to bolster security at the Zaatari camp, where reports of drug trafficking, prostitution and other crimes have emerged.
Guterres said security there will be "very strongly increased" and special measures undertaken to stop criminal activities.
At the Iranian Embassy in Amman on Wednesday, Iran's Red Crescent delivered its first shipment of aid to refugees from Syria in Jordan — 3,000 boxes containing dry food, detergents and notebooks — to the head of Jordan Red Crescent.
The predominantly Shiite Islamic Republic has staunchly supported Syrian President Bashar Assad and his minority Alawite rule during the civil war.

Breaking the Silence?
December 2, 2010
As an action-packed year for the HIV/AIDS community draws to a close, TheBody.com takes stock of 2010 in a new series of articles, "HIV/AIDS Year in Review: Looking Back on 2010 (and Ahead to 2011)." Read the entire series here.
The end of 2010 brings with it the first anniversary of my stint as a blogger for TheBody.com. When I started blogging, I honestly had no idea what I was getting into. I'd never done this before, and I had only a vague idea of what I might write about.
As a lawyer, I found that one of the most daunting aspects of this whole project was that I had no assigned topic. In my professional life, whatever case I'm involved in dictates what I write. I don't get to choose the subject; it's chosen for me. What's more, my goal in legal writing is obvious -- I have to persuade my audience that I'm right. I'm an advocate with a case to win, and winning is the goal.
In contrast, this blog didn't come with a predetermined goal. And I didn't consciously sit down to figure out my "mission" before I started writing here. I initially thought I would just write down some of my own thoughts and experiences and then perhaps respond to a few comments on the blog. But over the course of the year, something happened that I hadn't really expected. I began to receive e-mails from people all over the world who had read my posts. Some were complimentary and came from readers who said they enjoyed my writing. Those messages were -- and still are -- deeply gratifying.
Other messages, though, were anguished, and came from people who wrote to me of their isolation, their loneliness, and their lack of support as they struggled with HIV. Not a few confided that they had no one else to talk to. There was no one who knew what they were going through, no one with whom they could air their fears, anxieties and insecurities. I was surprised to discover so many people suffering in such complete silence. It was then that the goal of my blog became clear to me. I decided I would try, in my own small way, to help break that silence.
On the personal level, this meant I had to write about topics and feelings that make me uncomfortable. My hope was that I might reach others who were struggling with the same problems but felt unable or unwilling to discuss them. So to that end, I've written about my solitary, unpartnered life. I confessed to everyone who reads this blog that I'd had no sex for years. I discussed my struggle with lipoatrophy and the sense of loss and shame it's caused me. I tried to write frankly about things like the death of a loved one, the experience of grief, and how homophobia and bigotry can lead one to contemplate suicide.
Moving beyond my personal feelings and experiences, I looked at what was going on in the gay male community and offered my thoughts on why gay men still have unprotected sex three decades into this epidemic. In my post, "Raw Emotion," I called for us to have a frank, open, and honest dialogue about the practice called "barebacking." I wanted to bring out into the open a subject many seem to have trouble talking about.
If the number of comments that post received is any indication, there's a tremendous hunger for a truthful discussion of this issue. And TheBody.com made a huge and valuable contribution to that discussion with the podcast "Laying It Bare," that brought together psychologist Walt Odets, Rashad Burgess of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Professor Jeff Parsons from Hunter College to give us all the benefit of their knowledge and expertise. Moderating that podcast was probably the highlight of the year for me.
I don't kid myself about the effect of what I've written. In the best of circumstances, a blog like mine will barely make a ripple. Like the tree falling in the forest, I have to wonder if anybody hears. Still, I hope that I've been able to give voice to some of the thoughts and feelings so many of us with HIV keep hidden. I'm only one guy with a blog, but if enough of us speak up, I truly believe that together we can break the silence surrounding this disease.
Get e-mail notifications every time fogcityjohn's blog is updated.
My name's John. I'm 49 years old. I'm a lawyer by profession. I now live in beautiful San Francisco, California, after spending a long time on the east coast. I was diagnosed in 2004, so I've been positive for something like five years.

Project Description
This project is conducting a stacked reservoir injection pilot study to further evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of long-term CO2 storage in saline reservoirs and the use of CO2 in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) operations in the Mid-continent. The stacked pilot study will inject up to 70,000 metric tons of CO2, into multiple formations. This includes a maximum of 40,000 metric tons of CO2 into the Lower Arbuckle Group (an extensive saline aquifer) and a maximum of 30,000 metric tons into the overlying oil-bearing dolomite of the Wellington Oilfield. State-of-the art MVA (monitoring, verification, accounting, and assessment) tools and techniques to monitor and visualize the injected CO2 plume and establish best practice methodologies for MVA in shelf clastic and shelf carbonate formations are being conducted. This will help reduce storage risk by documenting the uncertainties related to these specific depositional environments and monitoring techniques. Additionally, simulation initiatives are being used to integrate multiple in situ and ex situ monitoring systems in tandem to track the location of injected CO2.
Project Benefits
This project focuses on defining the regional opportunities for CO2 storage in carbonate and clastic saline formations and depleted oil reservoirs thus providing the foundation for larger volume projects in the Mid-continent region. Field validation of characterization, modeling, monitoring, accounting, and assessment and risk management technologies demonstrate the ability to permanently and efficiently store CO2 in these formations. Specifically, this project is conducting CO2 injection for saline storage in the Arbuckle basal sandstone and vuggy dolomite and dolomite with EOR storage in the overlying Mississippian siliceous dolomite oil reservoir at Wellington Field. Completion of the project will demonstrate safe and permanent storage of CO2.

Attendees at the inaugural North American Grain Congress in Reno, Nev. Feb. 19-22 will learn about "synergy in energy" from Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) President Bob Dinneen who is slated to speak at the Grain Congress general session. The Grain Congress is the first joint conference of the National Grain Sorghum Producers (NGSP) and the National Association of Wheat Growers (NAWG).
"Ethanol has become the single most important and fastest growing value added market for farmers, stimulating rural economic development, creating jobs and increasing farm income," said Dinneen.
The expanding, broad-based ethanol industry offers producers the opportunity to improve their bottom lines through improved grain prices and plant ownership. Currently, 10 U.S. ethanol plants consistently utilize grain sorghum in their starch mix and two also utilize wheat. The plants have a production capacity of 391 million gallons per year. With five additional plants under construction and one plant expanding, the production capacity will increase to 561 million gallons per year.
Wheat and ethanol
NAWG President Mark Gage of Page, N.D., said that wheat producers are embracing opportunities in the ethanol industry that add value to their crop. He said, "The near-term prospects for making ethanol from straw and other crop residues is another exciting development for wheat and sorghum producers. We expect to see groundbreaking on the first of these plants in 2005."
For grain sorghum producers, ethanol is also an important, growing market. NGSP Vice-President of Domestic Market Development Dan Krienke of Perryton, Texas, said that in 2003, 12 percent of the U.S. grain sorghum crop went into ethanol production.
An educational hearing following the general session at the Grain Congress will feature an ethanol manufacturer that utilizes both wheat straw and sorghum stalks to manufacture cellulose ethanol. Invited speakers to the general session on Monday include Ag Secretary Nominee Mike Johanns and Iowa Congressman and Chairman of the House Budget Committee Jim Nussle. Other speakers include Gary Blumenthal who will focus on trade policy and Ed Barlow who will discuss future trends.
The Grain Congress will also give producers the opportunity to learn about new markets and products through tabletop displays and educational hearings. A research session will be held on Tuesday.
Register by Feb. 1 to take advantage of the early bird discount. Register online at www.graincongress.org or call NGSP toll-free at (800) 658-9808 to request a registration form. Make hotel reservations at John Ascuaga's Nugget Hotel & Casino by calling (800) 648-1177. Ask for the special Grain Congress rate of $85.

Explore aBodyBeautiful Plastic Surgery Forum!
Hello Dr. Bermant,I'm searching for a gynecomastia surgeon in the Richmond area. I'm willing to also make a drive to see someone experienced that you may recommend. I had come across your website and felt very comfortable about contacting your office based on your experience and before/after pictures...before I saw the retirement notice. Happy retirement!So, I have gynecomastia only on the right side of my chest. I had originally had surgery back in 2001 in Virginia Beach at - - - (whose practice seems to have disbanded). It has since grown back. It actually had grown back within 5 years after surgery (and hasn't changed much since). I originally had the surgery at age 18 (I am now 30). For me, it's more a discomfort issue (as it can be painful and very sensitive). I however can appreciate a doctor who also cares about esthetics.Do you have any surgeons you could refer me to?Thank you for your time.

Most U.S. stocks gained, rebounding from a five-day slump, as investors weighed prospects for a last-minute budget deal to avoid tax increases and spending cuts scheduled to start tomorrow. Treasuries fell and natural gas led commodities lower.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose 0.3 percent to 1,406.14 at 12:13 p.m. in New York after losing as much as 0.3 percent earlier. More than two stocks gained for each that fell in the U.S. The Stoxx Europe 600 Index climbed 0.3 percent. Ten- year Treasury yields were up three basis point at 1.73 percent, still headed for the lowest-ever year-end close. The Japanese yen weakened, set for the biggest annual drop versus the dollar in seven years. Gold was poised for a 12th annual gain.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said negotiators could reach an agreement today that would protect all but top earners from a tax increase at midnight. There is still no agreement and gaps between the two parties remain. Republicans and Democrats were narrowing the annual income level at which tax rates would increase in 2013 to between $400,000 and $500,000.
"The market is in this manic-depressive mood because of what's going on in D.C.," Wasif Latif, vice president of equity investments at USAA Investments in San Antonio, said by telephone. The firm oversees $54 billion. "The different ideas that they keep bouncing around and is there a deal or no deal -- it's like a game show."
More Battles
Even if a deal is reached and can get through both chambers of Congress, it would be more limited than President Barack Obama and leaders of both parties sought. It would set up another battle early in 2013 over the budget and the federal debt limit. Reid, a Nevada Democrat, yesterday rejected the latest Republican offer to resolve the deadlock as Minority Leader Mitch McConnell appealed to Vice President Joe Biden in an effort to break the impasse.
The S&P 500 is poised for a 12 percent gain this year while headed for a 0.7 percent drop in December. Financial shares jumped 25 percent this year while consumer, health-care and technology companies added at least 12 percent for the biggest gains among the main industries in the benchmark index. Utilities are down 4.7 percent for the only decline among the 10 groups.
Volume in S&P 500 stocks was 25 percent below the 30-day average at this time of the session, according to data compiled by Bloomberg, as trading slowed before the New Year's holiday. Trading of U.S. Treasuries will stop at 2 p.m. New York time today and all markets will be shut worldwide tomorrow.

No Hello Kitty Here
Thank Goddess she's given up the kung fu chops and focused on acting in other areas. Check it out – Lucy Liu at an ABC fall line up event. Can you believe she's almost 40? Actually I can. Like I've said before…we Asians age in the most peculiar fashion: young young young til 60. And then 80 comes in the space of a week. It's frightening.
Still, given that she's taking care of herself, and wearing sunscreen, Lucy just might have a shot at overcoming the China Curse. Look at that skin! Also love that she's not starving – fit but not emaciated. Total gorgessity.
Lucy is starring in a new ABC production premiering this fall on ABC called Cashmere Mafia – terrible title – by Darren Star…yes, that Darren Star. Of Sex and the City. Synopsis below:
Their names are Mia, Juliet, Caitlin and Zoe. But you"ll come to know them as the Cashmere Mafia -- four Manhattan women bonded by their Ivy League educations and executive success. A thinking woman"s Sex and The City mixed with the wit of The Devil Wears Prada, this one-hour drama assembles a cast of bright, driven, relatable women who support each other through rocky marriages, rival colleagues, kids" recitals and the hunt for the perfect loft.
Ambition always comes with a price. Consistently outpacing their male colleagues and husbands in salary and title, they also have to watch out for scheming bitches eager to bring them down. Fortunately, there"s strength in numbers. These successful executives regularly bring their problems to the lunch table and use each other"s strengths and resources to avert disaster, both personally and professionally. With style, smarts and appeal, the Cashmere Mafia is about to bring sexy back to the boardroom, while unexpected heart and humor keep their stories compelling.
Not to be confused of course with Brooke Shields's new show Lipstick Jungle, based on Candace Bushnell's book and airing this fall on NBC:
"this enticing new dramedy follows three high-powered friends as they weather the ups and downs of lives lived at the top of their game. Nico, editor-in-chief of a hot fashion magazine, has her eye on becoming CEO. Movie exec Wendy does everything she can to balance career and family. And free-spirited designer Victory longs to make her dreams come true, and maybe find Mr. Right along the way. Armed with humor and strength, these three modern New York women support one another through the triumphs and tears that are all part of making it big in The Big Apple."
Can you tell the difference? I can't. Darren vs Candace – which will you watch?
Ps. Remember Lindsay Price from 90201? Steve's girl? She's in Lipstick Jungle and she is stunning!

Reconstruction of the nose
Suche in Medline nach
|24. April 2006
Background: Reconstruction of the nose is one of the roots of facial plastic surgery and nowadays defects of the nose especially after tumor resection offer a common problem.
Methods: There are some principals to be regarded in reconstruction of the nose.
1. The reconstruction should respect the boarders of the subunits and enlarge the defects according to these principles. Scars after tissue-transfer should never cross these borders.
2. The tissue, which is transferred to cover the defects should be appropriate in colour and texture. Therefore the skin of the nose or the forehead are suited best.
3. In full thickness defects each layer has to be reconstructed separately and an cartilaginous support is necessary not only to guarantee the shape but also to prevent the transferred tissue from shrinking.
Results: Based on these principles our strategy is as follows:
Minor defects are covered by skin flaps from the nose itself, especially by rotation flaps (Marchac, Heminose) transposition flaps (biloped, triloped) or extension flaps (Rintala). For major defects the paramedian forehead flap in different variations (expanded or non-expanded) is our main workhorse. In full thickness defects and in subtotal reconstruction these methods combined with a reconstruction of the inner layer and covering this by cartilages grafts from the auricle good results can be achieved.
Conclusion: For reconstruction of the nose we prefer local flaps from the nose itself for minor defects, for large defects the paramedian forehead flap designed according to the modifications of Menick and Burget gives excellent results.

Why Just for You Cafe is Just For Me:
1) Where can you go to the Dogpatch and be greeted by a Rooster.
How to Deal with Bay Area Brunch Indecision:
1) Have no idea when asked, "Where do you want to go for brunch?"
2) Like the suggestion of SOMA StrEAT Food Park.
How to Have a Lovejoyous Girls' Bay Area Brunch:
1) Go to Lovejoy's with your favorite "Princess."
2) Sit at your table with the sign "Reserved for The Queens."
3) Look at the doiley covered table, the room filled with women, and be glad you left the guys at home.
4) Order the Queens Tea Service ($26.95). Shamelessly clink your cheerily mismatched teacups with your pinkie finger crooked just SO. Try the Tea Room Blend but next time stick to your fave, Vanilla Roobios.
How to Have a Disappointing German Bay Area Brunch:
1) Go to Schmidt's.
2) Wonder why it is so empty on a Saturday around noon.
3) Wait a long time for menus or for anything to drink. This will give you plenty of time to check out the white columns, wooden tables, blackboards with drink offerings, and dark bookshelf with beer steins and other German knickknacks.
How to Bay Area Brunch around the World in Just One Hour:
1) Go to Pomelo's Noe Valley location.
2) Grab a seat outside under the big pomelo or inside with the yellow walls, photos of faraway destinations, and funky chandeliers.
How to Avoid the Weekend Wait at Bay Area Brunch spot Boogaloos:
1) Walk kitty-corner to new Mission brunch spot, the WestWood, and cruise on in.
How to Bay Area Brunch in 70 degree Weather:
1) Head towards San Francisco's Savor restaurant. Stop by the Noe Valley Farmer's Market on the way for veggies and fruits.
2) Snag a spot on the pretty and spacious patio. Enjoy the twinkling lights on the tree and wonder where all the kiddies got their balloons.
How to have a rockin' Mardi Gras Bay Area Brunch:
1) Go to Brenda's French Soul Food.
They don't take reservations so go early and sign your name on the chalkboard at the front of the restaurant. We spent the half hour wait checking out the specials on the blackboard and Brenda's expanded digs, like the wall of mirrors reflecting the huge crayfish mural on the opposite wall.
2) Order the Beignet Flight
You'll have a hard time deciding which beignet to get so get them all! Plain, super sweet Chocolate, a Granny Apple one that taste like apple pie, and my favorite the savory Crawfish one that is spiced up with cayenne and oozing with cheddar cheese and scallions.
Ever returned to a restaurant and thought "I really should come here more often, like tomorrow"? NOPA is that kind of place for me.
I've been a longtime fan of NOPA's upscale food and casual vibe (pork chop dinners and late night flatbread and fries anyone?), so this Bay Area Brunch visit was long overdue. This weekend when we found a parking meter right in front and plenty of seats at the bar, the brunch stars had finally aligned.

EIB lends € 300 million for CERN's major collider
18 Dec 2002
Geneva, 18 December 2002. The European Investment Bank (EIB) is lending EUR 300 million to finance the final phase of construction of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN1, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. The EIB loan will also help to finance the instrumentation to record and analyse the high-energy particle collisions at the LHC. A loan to enable construction of this major project was foreseen by CERN's governing Council when it approved the LHC in 1996.

1. Re: PicketLink IDM Login moduleAnil Saldanha Apr 3, 2012 11:43 AM (in response to Martin Vecera)
Martin, good question to ask Bolek. We plan to have an IDM api usable in AS7. This certainly aligns.
2. Re: PicketLink IDM Login moduleMartin Vecera Apr 12, 2012 2:52 AM (in response to Anil Saldanha)
Hello, yeasterday I realized that there is already an implementation of this LM. There is a picketlink-idm-auth Maven artifact. I did not find any official distribution of PicketLink IDM except for the artifacts in the Maven repo. I also did not find the code in AS 7.1.1.Final modules. When do you plan to add it to AS7? When IDM becomes part of downloadable PicketLink distribution? And, is there a javadoc generated for IDM at docs.jboss.org (I realized that there is for federation but not any other PicketLink module)?
3. Re: PicketLink IDM Login moduleMartin Vecera Apr 12, 2012 4:21 PM (in response to Martin Vecera)
As I realized on the Wiki, there is no official distribution of IDM yet. Btw. the Maven repo with compiled jars is only accessible internally which seems strange to me...
I created my own version of PicketLinkIDMLoginModule (https://github.com/marvec/PicketLinkIDMLoginModule). What suites better for me is described here: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/PLINK-59?focusedCommentId=12683675#comment-12683675.
Soon, I'll try it with AS7.1.1 and provide the results...

Anna Kendrick looks sophisticated on the red carpet of the 2014 Met Gala on Monday (May 5) in New York City.
The actress paired her sleek J. Mendel gown with a stunning Graff diamond necklace, earrings and ring, Rauwolf clutch and Brian Atwood shoes.
Anna was the epitome of elegance in the classic monochrome dress. A little extra edge was added with cutouts at the front and back.
She truly stuck to the gala's theme with this entire look, topping it off with a graceful updo, cat eye and rosy pink lip.
This update on Old Hollywood works perfectly for the event. Although simple, Anna definitely hit all the right notes. Would you say the same?

Dutch for "palm trees", Palmbomen appropriately delivers a tropical escape from the mundane. Kai Hugo's music is as experimental as it is contagiously poppy. Haunting vocals and hypnotic synth lines produced by desolated studio equipment create an atmospheric sound that, according to somewhere between 80′s italo and 60′s psychedelia. A custom built quasi epileptic light show completes the sensation of being lost in a neon Amazon forest. Kai's debut 'Moon Children EP' is out on NON Records and showcases the uniquely eery sound of Palmbomen.

I first met Adrienne on erev Nitl, Christmas Eve, 1987, and saw her for the last time on khamishi shel khanike, the night of December 24 of the calendar year just ended. Jeffrey Shandler has written in an obituary that he published last week that "Adrienne taught us all to sing." I was one of her less successful experiments. I don't sing, I could speak Yiddish long before I met her.

MIAMI (February 15. 2012) – Team Oliveira has collectively decided to drop undefeated WBC South American middleweight champion Michael "The Brazilian Rocky" Oliveira down one weight class to junior middleweight, starting with his Brazilian mega-fight against four-time world champion Acelino "Popo" Freitas, which is tentatively scheduled for May 19 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
In his Canadian debut last Saturday, fighting in the third different county (US and Brazil) in his last three fights -Oliveira won a unanimous eight-round decision (79-73, 77-75, 77-75 against Sergei "Baltic King" Melis (18-8, 7 KOs) in Mississauga, Ontario.
Oliveira (17-0, 12 KOs), rated No. 14 by the World Boxing Council ("WBC"), battled the rugged Estonian in a spirited Special Middleweight Attraction "It was a war," Michael's father/promoter Carlos Oliveira (MO Productions) described the Oliverira-Melis fight. "Overall, it was a very good experience for Michael. It went back-and-forth, every round, and Michael was a warrior. Michael has been fighting much bigger opponents, so he'll now be dropping down to his natural fighting weight at 154 pounds."
"My conditioning proved to be the difference," Michael spoke about last Saturday's fight. I executed the plan but I thought that it was going to be a much easier fight than it was. He really surprised us. He didn't do anything that we saw him do on tape. It was another valuable learning experience. This fight was more important for me to fight eight hard rounds, instead of knocking somebody out in the first round. It proved my point that video tapes don't show everything. He threw more lefts in his old fights and a lot more rights against me.
"I had another fight planned and it was cancelled, so I took this one on short notice, and had to lose 20 pounds in one week. During the fight I felt deprived, not hydrated enough, and my opponent made me suffer. But, I'm still 17-0."
The 21-year-old Oliveira is listed as 5' 9" but he always gave away height, reach and weight fighting as a middleweight. He had been a super middleweight until head trainer Orlando Cueller joined his corner just three fights ago. "He's not a real 160-pounder and it showed," admitted Cueller, who is best known as Glenn Johnson's trainer. "He weighs maybe 162-63 pounds the night of the fight, but his opponents are in the mid-to- high 170s. Michael's been giving away too much height and weight and from now on he'll be fighting at a junior middleweight. The Russian came to win and the same-day weigh in affected Michael. We had the weigh in at 10 AM, paperwork lasted until around 1 PM, and he didn't eat until after that.
"He had to make adjustments during the fight and did. We've only been together 10 months. He listens and remembers what I tell him, but it's still going to take a while for him to get past bad habits he developed over four years. He's very young and without any amateur background, so Michael's experience is what he's learning in the gym. He's working on more lateral movement, moving his head more, and keeping his left high. He has the heart of a champion, though."
Carlos is scheduled to fly next week to Brazil to go over final details for Michael's May 19 fight in Rio against Freitas. "I'm looking forward to it," Michael added. "Everybody is going to see a much better fighter against Freitas than the other night. Making 154 won't be a problem. I was 157 the fight before last and I'll be losing weight under proper supervision during training camp. I'll bring my power down to 154 and won't be fighting bigger, stronger opponents who way up to 180 pounds in the ring.
"Freitas is an excellent, veteran fighter who is very smart and crafty. I'll have youth and more speed and strength on my side, but he's going to have years of experience on me. I'm taking training seriously for this fight, as if it is my first world title shot, and we will be training outside of Miami without any distractions."
The 36-year-old Freitas, a living legend in Brazil, has been retired for nearly five years. He stands 5' 6" and 135 pounds was the highest weight he fought at during his illustrious career.
"Michael will be younger, faster, more active and bigger than Freitas," Cueller noted. "We'll have eight solid weeks of hard training, bringing in good sparring partners who are similar to Freitas. We'll be preparing to fight the best Freitas, not the one who's been retired."

NEW YORK (AP) — A woman accused of stalking Hugh Jackman and throwing a razor at him has been indicted by a New York City grand jury.
The New York Post reports (http://bit.ly/11oD5xr) Kathleen Thurston appeared briefly in Manhattan Criminal Court on Friday. The charges remain sealed until Thurston's next court date May 8.
Police say Thurston pulled out a razor filled with hair and threw it at the "X-Men" star when he was working out in a gym in the West Village neighborhood Sunday. They say the Bakersfield, Calif., native then fled and was arrested several blocks away. Jackman wasn't hurt.
Police had charged Thurston with stalking and other charges.
Legal Aid lawyer Liz Beal tells the newspaper she's trying to figure out whether Thurston is mentally fit for trial.

I found Jati Homestay a lovely place with friendly & courteous staff. It was great to be staying within a Balinese family's home situation & observing the every day activities. The position was very convenient with interesting local shops in the surrounding streets. I hope to return for another longer visit& only a short walk to the main street in Ubud.

Folks that appreciate a good TV - a really good TV - hold Pioneer in incredibly high regard. The Kuro series of plasmas is still the one that sets the standard for deep black levels and Pioneer's reputation is still strong years after the company exited the TV market. Those Pioneer Elite sets are coming back with help from Sharp. We're not getting a plasma, which may disappoint some fans, but the LED backlit LCD that's being offered sounds impressive. It packs the same yellow sub-pixel that Sharp is known for, as well as full LED backlighting and local dimming of those LEDs.
The set offers connectivity to online streaming services, 3D functionality and is Skype ready, but that's all the sort of thing you'd expect to find in any modern TV. It also boasts Elite Advantage LiveSM, which lets you connect to a live advisor who can offer services like setup, picture adjustment and calibration. You can also adjust the THX certified display with Elite Pure Mode, which replicates the look of older Elite TVs. Of course, the real test isn't what's on the paper, but how the sets look when you're sitting in front of them. The 60 inch model will be hitting select high-end retailers next week with a price tag of $5,999 while the 70 inch model comes later this month for $8,499.

Erie County Legislator Kevin Hardwick reminds residents that the annual Prescription Drug Take-Back Day is on Saturday, April 27, and several sites across Erie County will accept medications from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Sponsored by the Drug Enforcement Administration and several local agencies, National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day collects thousands of pounds of drugs and disposes of them properly. In 2012, a total of 488,395 pounds of medications were collected across the country.
"National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day is the perfect opportunity to remove unwanted or expired drugs from your home. By dropping off items at one of the several collection sites, you ensure they are properly disposed of and don't fall into the wrong hands, which can lead to abuse or accidental poisoning," said Hardwick.
Local collection sites include:
•Grand Island Police Department will be collecting at Grand Island Town Hall, 2255 Baseline Road.
•Tonawanda Police Department will be collecting at Kenmore Mercy Hospital, 2950 Elmwood Ave., Kenmore.
For additional information or to search additional collection sites, visit www.dea.gov.
