The community thinks...
2010 S Line Prestige Glacier Grey Pearl by Ex BMW owner from Omaha on 03/03/2012. Trim: 2010 Audi A4 2.0T Premium Sedan quattro Tiptronic, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: LED running lights, quality of interior materials, S Line package, sports seats, ease of operation of the cars electronic devices, never met a snow storm it did'n like. No run flat tires and has a spare tire unlike a BMW 3 series. Flawless automatic transmission.
Cons: Though this engine is more than adequate for spirited driving, it lacks a 6 cylinders sound. Needed to purchase an oil dip stick account this engine lacked one and I do not trust the electronic sensor.
Overall review: Much better value than a comparable BMW with no noticeable performance loss. Interior is first rate.
Review ID: #556470 Is this review offensive?
Audi says it best, "Truth in Engineering" by Annapolis, MD Audi Owner on 08/26/2011. Trim: 2010 Audi A4 2.0T Premium Sedan quattro Tiptronic, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: Compared against cars in its class, the Audi A4 is one of the classiest technological masterpieces built by the German automaker. With quattro, its handling outperforms BMW and Mercedes. The interior is luxurious, yet modest, and Audi ensures that its vehicles are at the forefront of technology integration, such as the Multimedia Interface screen (ipod, bluetooth, gps, car systems analysis, data storage). It's almost like driving a computer, but doesn't take a tech geek to operate. Don't be fooled by its 4 cylinder engine. Under the hood you'll find 211 turbocharged horses that will make you enjoy your drive to work.
Cons: As with any foreign made performance vehicle, the upkeep is expensive. But if your buying an Audi, you can probably appreciate the necessity to use Audi experts to keep it in tip top shape. Plus, if you can afford an Audi, you can afford the maintenance. So I don't really see this a much of a Con.
Overall review: If your gonna buy an Audi, be sure you take a good hard look at the different options available. Don't skimp on options if you don't have to. You'll get home and regret not spending a few more bucks to fully enjoy the potential of this car.

Best compromise between a sport and practical and good looking sedan by Redhydra on 08/20/2012. Trim: 2010 Audi A4 2.0T Premium Sedan FrontTrak Multitronic.
Pros: Best compromise between a sport and practical and good looking sedan, its also a all weather car with its quatro and has good clearance between the ground and the car, useful for snow driving
Cons: Expensive to buy
Overall review: Excellent car, if only the tdi version was available in north america
Review ID: #563383 Is this review offensive?
Best in class!! by Hector A on 05/22/2011. Trim: 2010 Audi A4 2.0T Premium Sedan quattro Tiptronic, Owned 1 year.
Pros: sporty, great engine(2.0 T), great fuel economy, outstanding interior
Cons: nothing, I love it
Overall review: This is a GREAT car, i encourage everyone that is shopping for a car in this category to do a test drive of it. The 2.0T engine is great, if you get the Quatro version try the sporty option, or the paddles!!

Awesome - The Right Choice by An MSN Autos Consumer on 04/04/2010. Trim: 2010 Audi A4 2.0T Premium Sedan quattro Tiptronic, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: Performance, Looks, Interior, Fuel Economy, all-time all wheel drive
Cons: None
Overall review: A four turbo with the performance of a six. Better looks and has a bigger interior than it's competitors. Living in the north east, the all wheel drive was a no brainer. I was considering the 3-series and the C-class and it looks like I picked a winner.

Block-Printed Dhurries: John Robshaw for Anthropologie
We've always been fans of John Robshaw's collection for Anthropologie, which is slightly less expensive than his own product line. These cotton dhurrie rugs, new to the collection, have quickly become our current Robshaw obsession. In true Robshaw style, the patterns are hand-block-printed on the rugs instead of woven into them. More after the jump...
The charming "Lollipop Blossom" design is our favorite, but we like this more traditional geometric pattern too. Not having seen them in person, we're curious how the block-printing looks on the nubbly cotton weave. Usually Robshaw's block-prints, since they're hand-done, have an appealing imperfect quality. Not sure how this would come across on a carpet, though. Anyone seen these rugs up close?
All three designs are available at Anthropologie, $78 for a 2'x3' throw rug and $698 for the 6'x9' carpet.
4 Comments
well, actually it's the same stuff. sometimes he licenses out a discontinued product line to a retailer like the hot pink phulkari bedding. but quite a lot of his stuff is still available on his own site. and the pricing is comparable. this rug is $8 less on his site.
i notice that the primrose bolster went up to $184 at Anthro last year, then $215 on HSN, and the robshaw site raised it to $215 but recently dropped it to $170. several other online retailers have it btw $184 and $225, depending on whether/what type insert is included.
when they say "exclusively at anthropologie.com" they just mean you can't get it in their stores.
I noticed on that ABC Carpet and Home is now selling rugs online and they have some great dhurries with motifs that are similar to Robshaws and suprisingly cheaper. I love this one! http://www.store.abccarpet.com/store/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=42&idproduct=3191
Just FYI- We actually carry John Robshaw at a really low price- Once someone said it was less than N.Y. wholesale.
I love the colorful John Robshaw's dhurries, but sometimes that doesn't work in a room.
For some appealing understated dhurries, Thomas Paul's are a good choice:

How to topple a Dictatorship
It has been compared to Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto and Mao Tse-Tung's Little Red Book in its historic importance and has been hailed for its role in guiding members of the Arab Spring. Gene Sharp's From Dictatorship to Democracy, a small pamphlet on nonviolent resistance published in 1993, came from an unlikely source.
An American, working at the Albert Einstein Institute in the University of Massachusetts, was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009 for his inspiring work in defending freedom, democracy and peace. I do not know whether to laugh or be angry that President Obama beat him to it.
Regardless, it is said that the activists in Egypt close to the leader Mohammed El Baradei were using this text up to four months before the 2011 Egyptian Revolution and it was posted online on the website of the Muslim Brotherhood, which now has a majority in the parliament. Historically, it served as the foundations for Serbia's Otpor, Ukraine's Pora, Kyrgyzstan's KelKel and Georgia's Kmara.
It is even said that some of the dissent in the Iranian 2009 elections was pre planned and "over 100 stages of the 198 steps of Gene Sharp were implemented in the foiled velvet revolution" according to Tehran Times.
But some have criticised Western news media for exaggerating the impact of this man's text, accused of searching for a Lawrence of Arabia type figure. Certainly, as he says himself, he never envisioned being in the same sentence as Machiavelli, Clausewitz, Martin Luther King and even Gandhi.
His influence must not be doubted though. A documentary on the global influence of his work was released in September 2011 and was called the "unofficial film of the Occupy Wall Street Movement" where it was, in fact, shown to the occupants of camps in cities across the world. The film itself was shown to the Houses of Parliament as recently as 1st February 2012.
It seems astonishing that such a text, or generic manual, could even exist and remain under the radar for so long. But, in contrast to all other great texts, it is not a codification of ideology and the promoter of an alternative system and society. Rather, it is a generic analysis of situations in which a population finds itself when faced with a crippling and oppressive system of government, most commonly a dictatorship.
It has been called a "toolbox for the agitator" and an "inspiration to dissidents around the world" for good reason. It was written in response to the request of a Burmese émigré-in-exile, who continues to oppose the military junta that dominates Burma to this day. But, of course, what does it say?
It is, in fact, fairly simple and presents some of the principles that underline good governance and the basic needs and wants of a people. Its principles of negotiation with a dictator when fundamental issues are at stake, such as political freedom and redistribution of wealth are dismissed as futile and represent a basic misunderstanding of what the dictator is interested in. To give political freedom or to refrain from stifling political, social and economic institutions would be to surrender their throne.
A dictator will simply promise the world to regain control. 'Peace' to a dictator is not a peace with freedom and justice. It is a mere submission of will. Hitler demanded 'peace', but surrender to a dictatorship to end violence is not a worthy or even real peace. The solution is to topple the autocracy through the most effective method that limits human casualties and costs to an absolute minimum: non-violent resistance. Violence and confrontation will simply put resistance at a disadvantage, because the state can draw upon a deep reserve of resources and will be at a distinct advantage.
His essential theory is that even dictatorships, including the recently deceased ones in the Arab World, are completely dependent on the population as its power resource. When the majority completely rejects the minority and renders its power sources inefficient and obsolete there can only be one outcome. The people are the essential constant and no dictator can resist a collective people power.
A sad truth and pattern to these revolutions in the Middle East is that too many people had to die before the system was rejected. This bloody truth is now something to be lamented in Syria, Bahrain and even Yemen today.

I had a nice surprise this weekend when I opened the Guardian's work section and found a picture of our office staring back at me! OK, so it wasn't much of a surprise – we'd enjoyed chatting to Tim for a morning last month – but I was quite interested to read what reaction the Graun's traditionally acerbic commenters would have to the article.
One that caught my eye was this comment from yes future:
…It's not the bloody furniture that makes them such successful innovators. IT'S THE PEOPLE, STUPID!
The lesson to take away…isn't "oooh, we should have a water slide", it's "ooooh, we should give our engineers much greater control and autonomy over their work".
That's absolutely true. As I said in response, the office we've created is the embodiment of the control and autonomy that we give our staff. The space was designed by all of us, with our requirements in mind. It's therefore a place that feels comfortable and homely to our team and isn't just some homage to Google.
And in response to some other comments, I just wanted to say something about productivity. For us, customers are our first priority. Dealing with customers servers that often host business-critical sites can be stressful, challenging and definitely requires a hell of a lot of thinking.
All our staff understand this, I trust them to. And – as I said in the article – they hold each other to account if they needed. This is at the heart of how we run our business and that's why we decided to create a workplace that fosters productivity by letting staff blow off steam on the pool table or get work done lying on the beanbags instead of in a cheap office chair if they want to.
And finally, I admit I am a big kid but Melbourne is ultimately a successful and profitable business that turned over £3 million last year. Our staff – or rather, our family – is talented, diverse and eager to do things right by our customers. So we must be doing something right…
Daniel K-F, head tea boy @ Melbourne.

Can science uncover the origin of everything?
I started thinking about this when I came across this quote by Einstein:
"It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense; it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure."
And then I found this talk about the boundaries between science and philosophy when it comes to explaining the universe and nothingness:
So what do you think? Can science satisfy our craving for knowledge about our origins? Or would it be too dry? Do we need to hang on to a part of mystery?

Apr 23 2013: First of all, I wish that I could put aside more time for this site, TED. I find the people here fascinating and eager to put forward their inner thoughts. In our everyday life, at least in mine, this kind of frankness is difficult.... ok, before I rumble further I shall address this question.
My answer to this is NO. When one implies in the origin of EVERYTHING that would have to mean just that, EVERYTHING with nothing left behind, the likes of, 'where does the universe come from, and beyond that, and beyond that, and so on and so on'.... if we go back, far back in time, we will approach a period where there is no time. Since there is no time, how can science or any other doctrine answer that question??...... yes, yes, I have read other contributions to this question, and, I respect all these views however, I find that some wander way off the topic.... interesting the same. :)

Six hundred. Seventy-four. Horsepower. At the wheels-all four of them. At a 5,500-foot elevation. Chew on that for a moment... spit out the gristle of correction factors, dyno type, yada yada yada, and digest five inline cylinders of 20-valve turbocharged goodness. And the aperitif of 599 lb-ft of torque-also at the wheels-is simply delicious. This is an absurd portion of power, however you opt to cut it.
Purchased new in 1993, Hap Maguire's been playing with his Ur-S4 for nearly two decades and has spent thousands of dollars in trial and error. His latest lunacy has manifested itself in a 2.5-liter stroker whose output summarily eclipses that of even the stalwart Sport Quattro S1's mere 591 hp. Collaboratively masterminded by the apparently deviant and diabolical minds of Dave Jones of S-Line Motorsport in Denver, Colo., Brendan Rudak of Apikol in Boulder, and Javad Shadzi of 034 Motorsport of Freemont, Calif., Hap's build paddles its own canoe with Paul Bunyan's hands.
The build stats are not for the squeamish: an E85-fed, titanium valve, ported, polished, and Swain-coated and flowed head with solid lifters, HD springs, and titanium retainers is supplied with a biiiiig SX Performance 18203 external fuel pump and before/after Fuelab inline filters. Injector Dynamics 2,000cc injectors accompany a polished Wagner port-matched intake manifold and an 034 Motorsports fuel rail and 70mm throttle body to ensure enough mojo is sent to Wiseco 83mm pistons atop titanium Carrillo rods with ARP bolts.
A practically erotic S-Line Motorsport equal-length and firing-order-sequenced stainless exhaust manifold powers an Innovative Turbo Systems F272 triple-ceramic ball-bearing turbo and Tial Sport V44 wastegate that's good for 825 hp. It's also about the size of my feeble cranium. The 105mm turbo intake with AEM air filter blows through a 24x10.5x4-inch front-mount Garrett intercooler with Apikol polished end tanks and 3-inch polished aluminum plumbing from turbo to throttle body, with a hard mounted Tial blow-off valve. A NOS spray-bar activated at WOT and/or on-demand is wound across the FMIC's face. The custom 3.5-inch downpipe breathes out a Magnaflow exhaust that splits into twin 3-inch (in) Magnaflow boxes with dual 2.5-inch (out) tips whose install required "maneuvering" the spare tire well. Synthesizing the synapses is 034 Motorsport stand-alone software, capping the fun at 33 psi with gear-dependent mapping.
Suffering stat overload, it's time to WOT this mofo.
Firing up such a complex creation is surprisingly simple-a brief kick of the starter summons the iconic five-cyl to a cam-tastic high idle of 1250 rpm. E85 wafts across your nostrils with a near exotic and addictive allure. The bespoke Southbend race/street clutch and lighter (by 17 pounds) 034 flywheel don't have my left calf palpitating nearly to the degree I expect to cope with this level of power, and uptake comes with deft ease and a satisfying, subtle grab. Testament to Audi is the Kluge-rebuilt OEM six-speed ready to repeatedly withstand in earnest what I'm about to dole out, while the Stasis-tweaked center Torsen differential ensures optimal torque split.
Petering about town, it's much like my old S6 or one of the dozens of other modded Ur-Ss I've piloted-tame, tractable, docile even. Folks often deride and chortle in turbo-lag mockery when peak horses and turbo sizes of this magnitude are uttered. A quick perusal of the dyno plot reveals an entirely vast expanse of area "under the curve." Maguire is putting down more power at 4000 than most chipped Ur-Ss are making at peak. Then consider that area under the curve is exploited by a 6-gang 'box coupled with an 8000-rpm redline, and pundits are enlightened. Precision shifts are delivered through the Apikol short-shifter combined with a lead-filled shaft and shortened lever, as operating temps are monitored through myriad mission control gauges: boost, EGT, AFR, oil pressure and temp, coolant temp, voltage, fuel.

Guys. Guyyyyyyyys. I'm dying. This amazing compilation of dogs welcoming soldiers home is just mind-melting. The dogs are just so happy! It's a wonderful reminder that true love does exist. (Hmm. Maybe if I peed my pants a little and jumped for joy every time a squirrel crossed my path, I'd be a lot happier in life.) Anyway, a dog truly is man's best friend, and these soldiers are solid proof. You have to watch.
How heart-exploding is this?

I think its so sweet these dogs were "crying" of happiness. See animals do have feelings!

Everyone has a different view on money versus job satisfaction. Some are okay working crummy jobs, that they are unhappy in due to great income. Others forgo the money and are happy to wake up every morning and go to a job that they truly enjoy doing. We can even take things one notch up and ask; What is the purpose of work? Is it to make money or to have fun at your job? If it's having fun at your job, than why even bother to work your 8-10 hours per day. Might as well, go out and truly have fun. If your purpose to work is to make money, than you can suck it up and just do what you got to do, which in most cases means going into work and working a job you dislike. Unfortunately on this topic of money versus job satisfaction, one glove does not fit all. Some will take on health issues throughout their lives due to stress and possibly physical factors in order to keep earning good money. The more wise ones opt for less money in exchange for more time with the family, shorter travel to work, less stress and overall happiness. I've always said this; Money does not bring happiness. We think it does, but it's only for the moment and once the moment (honeymoon phase) passes, we are back to square one. Happiness comes from within. In order to feel happiness, there has to be satisfaction from many different points of your life. Relationships, job, family and of course your own personal happiness.
I know far too many people who work jobs or have careers that they are unhappy in. Why are they there? Money. The incoming paychecks are too good to pass up. They have this envisioned life-style they strive to keep up. Sorta like "Keeping Up with the Jonses". Then you hear their self pity through conversations, hoping that you will feel sorry for them. I don't feel sorry for them and probably never will. We all make choices in life and if you made the choice to endure high stress in exchange for good money, well that's your choice. They can take a slightly lower paying job and endure less stress. Go into work, do the 9-5 and go home happy to their family. But they can't and wont. The money is too good to pass up.
I always believed that job satisfaction is more important than money. Money will come and go. It's sorta like water in a river, it flows in and out. Sometimes in a slow stream and other times the stream is fast. One's job choice or career choice is an essential part when starting out after school. One still probably lives at home, cost of living is cheaper and it's easier to move to another job, particularly if one does not find it satisfying. One should make the right choice and not be afraid of change. A difference of $5,000 in salary is not a significant amount that will be lost per pay-check. I think $5,000 is worth the less stress one might deal with or taking on a job that they will wake up every morning to.
"Don't spend a single minute working for a job you don't like. Life is too short"
Donald Trump – Think Like a Billionaire
Money is a tool. A tool that we use to make our lives easier. It does not create happiness on it's own. Happiness is a combination of many different faucets of life and money being one of them. Job satisfaction comes from within. Think about it; most everyone enjoys doing a job and performing different tasks within that job. Where the dislike comes in is through poor management, awful commute, poor work environment and dislike of co-workers. The job it's self is fine for the most part, for most of us. Any job you work, you should be respected for the work you do. In return, you should respect your job by giving it your best at all times. If you are not giving it your best, for whatever reason, maybe it's time for a change.
In conclusion, I will just add that I think money is easier to gain versus job satisfaction. You can always switch to another job in order to gain more money. Gaining job satisfaction takes time, patience and a lot of work. We all have our own niche of job satisfaction. This personal niche is what makes us happy inside and inspires us to get up every morning to go do our job. That's true happiness. A happiness that money could never buy.

The Walsh County Sheriff's office says he slit the throat of one his dogs as deputies arrived on his property to seize his animals. A veterinarian euthanized four of the dogs.
The 19 year-old victim was chased and attacked by several dogs as he walked along a county road. He spent a night in a hospital.

Quarterback carousel keeps turning for Lumberjacks
By Cody Bashore
The Lumberjacks made their home debut against the Fort Lewis College Skyhawks and produced an impressive 69–0 victory a little more than two weeks after their disappointing results in Tempe against ASU. The outcome against the Skyhawks, a Division-II program, became even more interesting when sophomore backup quarterback Chase Cartwright left the game with a leg injury seconds before halftime. Cartwright, starting in place of injured senior Cary Grossart, hurt his leg after he took a hit scrambling for a first down.
Kyren Poe makes a move
Redshirt freshman Kyren Poe found himself in a new role against the Skyhawks, having moved from quarterback to wide receiver in the week leading up to the game.
"He is such a gifted athlete; it's hard to have him not near the ball," said head coach Jerome Souers. "He's a winner; he comes from a state championship team; he was MVP of the state championship his senior year after playing one year at quarterback."
Poe, who was named Offensive Scout Team Player of the Year after his redshirt year this past season, won three state championships from 2008-2010 while at Hamilton High School in Chandler. He had 2,133 yards and 17 touchdowns through the air while adding 891 yards and 15 TDs on the ground. His dual-threat ability prompted the Lumberjacks to find a way to get him on the field, even though the quarterback position is currently filled.
"I'll tell you what he did tonight, he blocked. He blocked: He broke a couple touchdowns runs out there," Souers said of Poe, who also added a catch for five yards. "He is a very athletic young man, and as a redshirt freshman, we need to get him on the field somehow, some way."
Next in line at quarterback
While Grossart continued to recover from a right knee injury he suffered against ASU, Cartwright earned his second career start for the Lumberjacks. However, his second start would not wind up as perfect as his first career start in the upset at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. After Cartwright was carried off the field by a pair of trainers, redshirt freshman Jordan Perry entered the game. Perry's first snap at quarterback would double as his first career touchdown pass when senior running back Covaughn DeBoskie-Johnson took a screen pass 31 yards for the touchdown. Perry finished the game 7-of-9 for 74 yards and two touchdowns.
"You can always tell the quality of a program top to bottom by how your depth plays and how it develops," Souers said. "We ended up going to our third quarterback, Jordan Perry. He stepped in and showed the kind of confidence that he should have; he's a great quarterback."
Depending on the severity of Cartwright's injury, Perry could be looking at taking over the backup quarterback job going forward. Souers said the team expects Grossart to be back for the upcoming game at the University of Montana. Souers added that Poe could return to quarterback if needed for depth.

Capture Your Child's Voice
*Quinn Singing Twinkle Little Star, Age 7
Music is a big part of your child's life. They inherently connect and deeply understand it. Today we are honored to guest post over at Melissa & Doug and talk about why Music Matters.
This is a short family video of my little Quinn singing Twinkle Little Star as a toddler.
We often talk about capturing the gift of an ordinary day on film, but it is equally as important to capture your little one's voice.
Hit the "memo" button on your iPhone as your child attempts to read a story.
Grab a short video of your little one singing. You won't regret it.
When I compare the video to the photo above it is hard for me to admit my little girl is growing up. Quinn has always enjoyed singing so I didn't think much of the footage when I took this video. Now, her toddler voice is absolutely precious.
We continue to make music a priority at our house. I often photograph or capture video of the girls "performing" their favorite songs. I am sure some day, in the not to distant future, I will look at these current photos and think "the girls look so young."

Caramelized Ginger Chicken with Sticky Rice
Photo: Eric Wolfinger
Valerie Luu's cousin swears by the ginger chicken sold by his favorite xoi ga street hawker in the Vietnamese city of Can Tho. After tasting it themselves on a scouting trip, Luu and Katie Kwan created their own version.
Yield: 4
More From Food & Wine
Recipe Time
45 Minutes
Total: 3 Hours
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons Asian fish sauce, such as nuoc mam, (See Note)
- 4 whole chicken legs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 6 scallions, white and green parts, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 4 (medium) shallots, very finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, very finely chopped
- 1/2 cup fresh ginger, peeled; minced
- 3 Thai chiles, very finely chopped
- 1/2 cup pickled daikon, sliced (See Note)
- 2 1/2 cups (about 18 ounces) Chinese sticky rice, soaked overnight in water and drained (See Note)
- Salt
- In a large, shallow baking dish, stir 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar with 2 tablespoons of the fish sauce until the sugar is dissolved. Add the chicken legs and coat them thoroughly with the marinade. Let the chicken stand at room temperature for 2 hours or refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 450°. In a small saucepan, heat the vegetable oil. Add the scallions and cook over high heat until they sizzle, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat.
- Meanwhile, in a medium enameled cast-iron casserole, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of brown sugar with 1 tablespoon of water and cook over moderately high heat, stirring a few times, until bubbling, about 3 minutes. Gradually stir in 1 1/2 cups of water, then stir in the remaining 1/3 cup of fish sauce along with the soy sauce, vinegar, honey and half of the scallion oil. Bring to a boil and simmer over moderately high heat until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Add the shallots, garlic, ginger and chiles and simmer over moderately low heat for 5 minutes.
- Roast the chicken legs in the upper third of the oven for about 15 minutes, until they are browned.
- Discard the chicken skin and nestle the legs in the sauce in the casserole. Tuck in the pickled daikon slices. Cover and simmer over low heat for about 15 minutes, basting the chicken a few times, until cooked through; add a few tablespoons of water if the sauce gets too thick and dark.
- Meanwhile, in a wide stainless steel or bamboo steamer, bring 1 1/2 inches of water to a boil. Moisten a double layer of cheesecloth that is large enough to cover the steamer basket and reach part of the way up the side; line the steamer basket with it. Add the drained rice to the basket and pat into an even layer. Cover and steam the rice over moderate heat for about 15 minutes, until tender.
- Uncover the rice and season lightly with salt. Spoon the remaining scallion oil over the rice and stir gently. Serve the chicken with the sticky rice.
Note: Nuoc mam is the word for fish sauce in Vietnamese. Some brands we like are Flying Lion, Three Crabs and Squid. Pickled daikon and Chinese sticky rice are available online or at Asian markets.

Keeley Hawes: Capaldi Is "Absolutely Terrific" In Doctor Who
Doctor Who Series 8 guest star Keeley Hawes appears in a new video interview from "don't call us a supermarket" Marks & Spencer, in which she enthuses over Peter Capaldi.
Cast as Ms Delphox, Hawes – well-known as a star of Line of Duty and Ashes to Ashes - revealed how impressed she was with the new Doctor Who star.
I've just finished filming the new series of Doctor Who with Peter Capaldi and, I must say, having seen him at work, he is absolutely terrific as the new Doctor.
Naturally, however, Ms Hawes can't tell us too much…
I can't say very much about it because it is shrouded in secrecy – and quite right too – but I play Miss Delphox, an intergalactic banker who runs the most secure bank in the universe.
See the full clip below, which also includes Keeley discussing her first paid role and her love of bric-a-brac (items, as opposed to the old Brian Cant children's TV show…)
You can also read the full feature on the M&S website.

7/17/11 David Ian Cowan, Navigating the Collapse of Time
I don't mean to shift focus from the last IE Radio program about conscious aging, but wanted to ask a quick question. Listened to the 7/17/11 show with David Ian Cowan this morning on the way to work--wow!
Has anyone here read his book
Navigating the Collapse of Time
? It is now at the top of my "to read" list. I'd love to discuss the book with anyone who's familiar with it--meet me in the "Books!" forum?
Loved the discussion of this reality being a dream. As the radiant Buddha said, "Regard this fleeting world like this: like stars fading and vanishing at dawn, like bubbles on a fast moving stream, like morning dewdrops evaporating on blades of grass, like a candle flickering in a strong wind, echos, mirages and phantoms, hallucinations, and like a
." My teacher, Tias Little, often cites to that passage.
I'll also have to keep my copy of Heinrich Zimmer's
Myths and Symbols in Indian Art and Civilization
close by when reading Cowan. There's a great story about Markandeya (not sure if I'm spelling that correctly) walking around in Vishnu's dream!
Into this dream of a work day I leap now . . .

If you really want to know how many calories that exercise burned, the BodyMedia Fit easily beats other popular trackers. But being an armband, rather than wristband, isn't particularly comfortable.
The company best known for its Bluetooth headsets is accessorizing with BodyMedia, which focuses on wearable body monitors.
Two body monitors enter, but only one will leave. No, seriously — only one makes it to the end of this story.
Bridget Carey runs down the features of the new disposable health monitor, the BodyMedia Patch.
Sprint will unveil a suite of apps for its Android-based phones at CES this week that will allow users to crunch the numbers coming out of their BodyMedia armbands.

They promise to track your activity and keep you in shape. But how well do activity trackers and fitness bands really work? A real-life journey into the world of health-meets-tech.
If social makes things better, the Jawbone Up might be the tracker for you. It's easy for friends with the device to motivate you. But for "non-step" activities, you may need to do manual logging.
The popular Fitbit activity tracker is now available to be worn around the wrist. That, along with new goal indicator, proves to be an impressive combination.

BREWFEST! It has to be Brewfest. When I stepped into that carnival on my first year of the game (altaholism going strong!) and heard the background chatter. . . the silly stories and jokes. . . Now, I'm a very hard man to make smile--to make laugh doubly so. I was laughing up TEARS on that Brewfest. The sheer absurdity of the event kept the lol-train going for a good two days. I had no idea Blizzard could be so hilarious!

Facebook Vs. Google+: Let the New Battle of SMO Begin
The honest truth is that Facebook isn't going anywhere anytime soon, but that doesn't mean there isn't room for competition. The social network behemoth might have more than 750 million members and counting, but who says people can only belong to one social network? All it takes is for a monopolizer's weakness to be exploited for an opponent to find success.
Google has designed their own social network, Google+, with all of Facebook's flaws in mind. The new network is still in its beta phase, but already it can be seen that the search engine masters have devised a social network based on the idea that privacy doesn't have to be fought for and personal information doesn't have to be protected. In a world where these things are what drives the modern digital market, that's a pretty bold move to make.
When it comes to SMO, Google+ might seem like an internet marketing company nightmare. Users are provided ways to divvy up friends into separate lists, wherein information is only relayed among those within the individual group. Settings regarding posts, messages, profile information, and search results are in the user's control from the get-go, unlike Facebook where members must navigate through several turn styles of options in order to regulate their own privacy.
If Google+ takes off, then the rules regarding SMO might need to be rewritten. It will ultimately depend on how much of Google+ people actually like. In light of Facebook, which profits solely on the manipulation of member data, people might flock to Google+ or at the very least demand that other social networking sites follow Google's example when it comes to preserving privacy. What does this mean for Facebook? For now, it means playing it safe while you can and arming up for a potential fight.
That's why just a few weeks ago Facebook announced, atop it's announcement that they're joining forces with Skype, that they're planning on releasing "products" soon, as well as introducing a whole new wave of services on the social network site itself. They not only want to distract people away from the heavy emphasis on privacy that plagues any news story on Facebook, but they want to make the right moves early on to constantly stay one step ahead of any and all competition.
What does all this mean for internet marketers who specialize in social media optimization? Nothing in the immediate future, but storm clouds are definitely on the horizon. Sit tight in the mean time and keep doing what you do, but keep in mind that the rules might change soon. In this business, that's something you're going to have to get used to.

Hi KC Tan, it is not about SMO war, it is about SEO war as well. Google allows links from Google+ to determine search engine ranking for a website. As an internet marketer, sometimes I feel tired coz the internet world changes so fast!
We then have to optimize SEO and SMO as well.

A lonely night leaves Sasuke remembering all the memories of him and Sakura. He then realizes his true feelings for Sakura.
When Sasuke entered the room and smiled at the comfortably warm room and big bed. The fact that Sasuke was alone flustered him while he unpacke dhis stuff. Sasuke unbelted his kunai holder and then his shuriken bag and threw them on the ground relieving his body from the extra weight, then he quickly removed the rest of his clothes. Sasuke dove on to the bed, comforting the strained muscles that hadn't relaxed in days. Loving the sweet tranquil silence he softly went to sleep.
That night he dreampt the memories of his past expierences and adventures that he has shared with Sakura.
When he woke he lie in his bed thinking over the dreams he had, had. He sat alone for a while remembering all the memories untill an asent truth came to his realizing. Through out all of his youth even back to when he was a genin, she had always loved him and he had not once accepted it, he had always pushed her away no matter what the situation was. He also realized the bitter truth that he was alone, at the rate he was going he would die alone. He had always wanted to get married, but that goal had been so tossed around so much by other events that it's priority was altered from essential to inexistent. The extremely crucial thought brought a subtle tear to his eye. He was surprised at the mood that had overcome him, but also relieved that these thoughts of his were not forgotten.
After a few more minutes of recalling his memories he then got dressed packed his thing s and headed downstairs. After a light breakfast of bread and cheese he headed on his way back to the village hidden in the leaves, overwhelmed with that of excitment and of passion..............To be continued.

Sometimes I think it would be best if I wasn't able to think about you anymore.
The only guy that I would tolerate inside me is so far away, and talking about chicken. I need new friends.
My phone has saved all of my texts for the last two years and as I read I realized my best friend's feelings for me were exactly the same. Why did I never realize the extent of this? Why did it take him saying some really dumb shit about how incredibly hot I am and how he doesn't want anyone else; for me to realize that, that is the kind of dumb shit he's been telling me for years. I think I need to sleep and forget about the fact that there is a boy out there that will send me photos of his puppy or his boobs whenever I ask and who would rather text me until I fall asleep and let me talk about my dumb boyfriends then say goodnight. I have wasted so many years really not taking him seriously. Although until now he has been the same way with the fact that I have loved him since I was sixteen, and back then we could have kissed sloppily until he found someone better, but no we had to be friends, he had to move away, we had to keep in touch through all of our relationships and he had to let me know in a night of drunk texting that the feelings I've been pretending aren't consensual are way too consensual. What does one do when nothing changes except for feelings? I guess sleep. Thank you if you read this, which would be the only way you see I'm thanking you.
But that's never gonna happen, that was five years ago.
He told me he thinks I'm gorgeous.
Why didn't I ask him how he felt about my insides?
Why didn't I tell him to shut up?
Why did I just stand there letting him rattle on about something that I knew would make me spiral into this?
and the next day he acted like we were dating
and now he is acting like nothing happened
or maybe he is still acting loving and I'm the one pulling away
all I know is he hasn't texted back in ten minutes and I wish he never would again so I could tell myself it was a glorious dream and venture to reality where I could meet someone who is here. Body, soul and otherwise.

Season it up, because this one comes with a few grains of salt, as is the nature of rumors. HTC hasn't confirmed this or made anything officially, but they're apparently set to introduce a full screen HTC Touch this Xmas – holiday if your PC – called the HTC Touch HD. Like its lesser screened brethren, the HTC Touch HD will run Windows Mobile 6, but sport a 5 megapixel camera on top of a WVGA screen. WVGA is 800×480 resolution! Notably, it's about the size of an iPhone.

Film Synopsis:
Prepare for double the action, double the terror and double the D's. The prehistoric school of bloodthirsty piranhas are back and this time, no one is safe from the flesh-eating fish as they sink their razor sharp teeth into the visitors of summer's best attraction, The Big Wet Water Park.
My Take:
Piranha 3DD is a terrible film; Abysmal really, but that's what they were going for. If you watch this and criticize it for being low budget, lowbrow and cheesy, then Director John Gulager and the writing team of Patrick Melton, Marcus Dunstan and Joel Soisson can look at each other, high five and say "Goal Accomplished!". So if you are going to watch this, don't expect Knighted Thespians and dramatic prose. Be warned and quit your whining!
If you were not paying attention, this sequel to 2010s Piranha 3D is called Piranha3 DD. DD, get it? It certainly ups the ante of boobaliciousness, as it takes place in an "adult" swim park, brilliantly run by the always hysterical David Koechner (Anchorman). Besides the fact that he has made this family water-park an adult theme behind the back of his 49% partner, who happens to be his Stepdaughter (Danielle Panabaker), there rally isn't much in the way of plot here. This is flick is purely a vehicle for blood, jokes, boobs and Hoffs. Yes Hoffs, as in David Hasselhoff who is perfectly self-deprecating. The word on the street is the sub-par CGI Piranha are re-used (even reused shots) from the first flick, but I didn't notice a thing. This was 80 minutes of mind-numbing schlock and I had fun with it. Possibly more fun than the original which was pretty darn intentionally cheesy and gory itself. Bottom line is if you liked the first this will be a fun, quick and dirty watch.

Piranah DD comes to Blu-ray Disc from Anchor Bay Home Entertainment featuring 1080p AVC (2D) encoded video that has an average bitrate of 22.9 Mbps, 1080p MVC (3D) encoded video, and Dolby TrueHD 5.1 Sound that has an average bitrate of 3.8 mbps
Anchor Bay releases Piranha 3DD as 3D, 2D, DVD and Digital Copy all in one package. Pretty cool for fans, and I am glad to report the releases quality is great. The Dolby TrueHD 5.1 Soundtrack is pretty awesome. It's an aggressive track, and far from elegant, with its thunderous LFE and widely active surrounds. The tracks dynamics are impressive (check out Ving Rhames gun shots) and the mix is on the money, especially in the big attack scene when Piranha are darting in and out from all over the screen. The 2D is reference, and might even have be awarded a few more points other than its over blown colors. They work, add some fun to the blood, but are a bit too much for my liking. Blacks are stellar, as are shadow details, and add that to perfectly rendered definition on ever frame and this is a absolute winner. The 3D was not as great, with the same colors, decent light output, but something was off for me. I felt uncomfortable, and squinted a bit. As for reference I checked my set-up with a few other 3D flicks and it wasn't as bad as this. I did settle in, however it took me a bit longer than usual with 3D content. The flicks credits flew off the screen with amazing depth, and there were shots that the on-screen depth was quite impressive, but over-all the 3D medium was not used the best I have seen. Also, I expected a whole lot more in the way of DDs popping off the screen and almost hitting me in the face--color me disappointed.
Bonus Features:
- Filmmakers Feature Commentary
- (HD) The Story Behind the DD
- (HD) The Hofftastic World of David Hasselhoff
- (HD) Busey's Bloopers
- (HD) Wet and Wild with David Koechner
- (HD) "A Lesson with John McEnroe" – A Dimension Short Film
- DVD Copy
- Digital Copy
Final Thoughts:
The lowbrow schlock of Piranha 3D is taken up a notch here, but what little plot the original had is taken down a notch as well. This is pure camp and bad for the sake of sometimes bad is fun. I enjoyed the mindless 80 minutes and genre fans will as well. Take it light and enjoy the great high definition package Anchor Bay has put together. I found the Director/Writers commentary a perfect companion to let us know how they felt about making it a goofy-cheese ride, even going so far as to joke on the may underwater segue shots. And for a perfect bit of levity, check out the Gary Busey Bloopers.

First one I'd probably give 3-3 1/2 stars. The first one is actually a movie I would watch again.
This one, 1 star. I wouldnt watch it again.
(OK, I lied. I'd probably fast forward to the boob scenes every now and then)
The first one was so hugely disappointing, that I probably won't even consider spending time or money on this one...

Engaging and enjoyable
To the staff of Green Mountain Running Camp,
I can not not thank you enough for the opportunity to take part of the coaches clinic this summer. I had an incredible experience and learned a great deal of information to incorporate in my upcoming cross country season. It was great to see so many kids who enjoy running and to be able to take part in running with them. Coach Gerry Chester did an amazing job in the classes he taught us. His personal stories, warmth and humor kept class engaging and enjoyable. He has such a knowledge for running. Kristin Ross also played an a huge part in my attending the coaches clinic. I coach with her at our middle school and she has been asking me to come to camp the last few years. I am so glad I was able to attend. I enjoyed the break out sessions she arranged and it's obvious she has a great presence with the campers and staff at the camp.
Thank you again for a great experience. I look forward to coming back next year either as a coach or to attend the clinic again.
Well done!
Erin E. Pomykala, Head Coach Men's and Women's Cross Country, Sarah Lawrence College, Bronxville, NY
Individual feedback
Being able to receive individual feedback at this workshop regarding our individual program and how to implement and adjust it to get the most benefit out of our season was something that other coaching workshops don't offer.
Terri Miller. Solebury School Head Cross Country Coach Assistant Track and Field Coach New Hope, PA
Exceeded my expectations
What an incredible week. This coaches' workshop far exceeded my expectations. Whether this was your first season coaching, or you've had a few years under your belt, there was much to be taken away from this workshop experience. I am very much looking forward to returning next year to see what session two will hold.

text: What happens once a street deck gets razortail? No need to throw it out. Just contact the folks at Logsaw Meat in Slovenia. They are working with shops to turn used skateboards in to mini cruisers. Each board is unique and this is a great way to get more life out of what was thought to be a dead deck. Customers get a store credit for decks they return. Kudos to Logsaw Meat for trying something a little different.

Dear Love of Mine,
It won't be like this for long. I look forward to the day, we start our life together and being side by side. We have forever to go. Can't wait until you get back.
It won't be like this for long. I look forward to the day, we start our life together and being side by side. We have forever to go. Can't wait until you get back.
It's late at night, I think about you the most when the lights go out. Oh how I wish I was in your arms right now, but for now I'll picture you laying next to me. Might not help missing you but it helps me to get through most nights. I miss you so much. Come back to me.
Your Sweetheart.
When the world seem hard and your faith is down low, remember the love that we have let your heart fill with joy. May God watch over you and every one around you. I might not be by your side, but I promise I'll be right here waiting for you when you return. I love you.
PS: I'm proud of you.
I wish I had you close to me right now. I miss your arms more than ever right now. I could stay there forever if I could. Soon in time I will have you back, these miles won't ever get between us. Our love is stronger than this. See you soon.
Forever yours,
I feel so weak right now, being without you. I keep it to myself cause I don't want to worry you at all. I'm Trying to be strong for the both of us, more for myself. Hope that's not selfish of me. I just need you! Won't let these miles win. I love you.
People may see us like what kinda of love is that, never seeing each other and what not. Whatever they say, I try let go through one ear and out the other one. This love it's our kinda of love, a lot don't understand it. For those who do they are just as strong as us. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. God knows we're worth it. I love you, I'm here to stay.
Love always,
Your other half
As I lay here, I can't sleep. All I see is you running through my mind, thinking of the day you back. You'll finally be in my arms. I'm never going to want to let you go. I can't wait, come back to me.
Are time apart has made me realize, how strong we are. What are few miles being away from you for few months. When one day I'll say I do, I'll have you for the rest of my life. The little things we have now mean so much more. I may not get to see you everyday but I have you close to my heart. Soon in time I'll be back in your arms, I'm never letting go.
"You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams."
Dr.Seuss, was right babe. I miss you.
This is hard. Being away from you sometimes I can't go about my days. There's time I lose it And cry myself to sleep. I know wasn't going to be easy. I remind myself everyday, one day you'll be in my arms. This will pay off, it will. Each day that passes, is another day closer to you. See you soon.
