Team suddenly depleted at guard Brad Biggs
There were so many players banged up that Lovie Smith had to bring a list with him to the podium on Sunday afternoon.
The Chicago Bears worked over the Minnesota Vikings 28-10 at Soldier Field to snap a two-game losing streak, but they paid a steep price in the process.
Five starters were knocked out of the game with injuries and perennial Pro Bowl linebacker Lance Briggs was hobbled. Cornerback Charles Tillman (ankle), running back Matt Forte (ankle), wide receiver Devin Hester (concussion) and guards Lance Louis (knee) and Chris Spencer (knee) did not finish the game because of injuries.
A team that has been mostly healthy for the bulk of the season will now have a full training room, and the injuries on the offensive line are a real concern as benched right tackle Gabe Carimi had to fill in for 1 ½ quarters at right guard, a position he has never played before. Louis and Spencer are scheduled to have MRI's today to determine the nature of their injuries.
"I thought the guys did a good job," Smith said. "Gabe Carimi hasn't played a lot of guard. Coming into the game, he wasn't thinking about playing guard. But just being able to fill in there, same thing with Edwin Williams. It's always about the next guy stepping up. Injuries are part of it and I thought they did a good job."
If Louis and Spencer are out for any length of time, the Bears could be forced to make a move. They already lost some depth when veteran Chilo Rachal was placed on the reserve/non-football injury list last week after he left the team.

Messianic Jews say they are persecuted in Israel
Full story: Newsday
Comments (Page 2,262)
Since: Nov 09 22 Location hidden |
I am a christian arab from Ramallah Palestine and i think that if we convert everyone to christianity we will end all conflicts in the world.
5 years ago, there were only 20,000 messianic jews today they are 150,000 in Israel. I think that's great because if we are all christian in Palestine and Israel we are going to merge. We have to get rid of Islam which is the world number one issue today. If you rid the world of Islam, you rid of the major problems in the world. I salute the american missionaries who are doing a great job in muslim countries. They are very courageous. |
It says in the NT, "I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but do lie" It's worse for someone who was born and raised in Judaism to convert out than it is for any other person. They should know better. They have a double dose of thinking they're immortal and probably are the most arrogant |
When the Messiah comes, the world will know it. Is. 54:3 "For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles..." |
There will be a 1 world religion that will unite us all but it won't be Christianity, they will be the adversaries. At the end people will either believe in the Hebrew bible or the NT-the doctrine of Satan. Job 31:35 "...my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that my adversary had written a book." Satan means adversary and you've gone from one delusional belief to another. It's going to be Judaism vs. Christianity; good vs. evil; light vs. darkness. |

I agree Barbara. Christianity is idolatry which is expressly forbidden in the Torah. The God of Israel is the living God and the terms Christian and Jewish are mutually exclusive as a matter of choice, not ethnicity. |

Is THAT punishment for bashing for bashing up a country and killing 1 million people? Is that punishment for getting 10,000 of your own soldiers killed and spending Trillions of Dollars of Hard Cash? What type of Civilized system is it? The criminals and culprits are free to roam and enjoy at the cost of the country whom they cheated and destroyed? Democracy must be the most inhuman form of Govt. then, if it lets these crooks simply by "loosing them in the election". And what choice you have? Replace one set of idiots with another set of Idiots. GWB the Great did not loose any election for your info, he was rewarded for his "manly courage and stand face to face with Osama and look him in they eyes" with re-election!!

The madness that was Iraq War, listen from the Horse' Mouth Now Part-4 Update: The Iraq War Ledger A Look at the Wars Human, Financial, and Strategic Costs Matthew Duss and Peter Juul December 2011 18. Strategic costs A. The foregoing costs could conceivably be justified if the Iraq intervention had improved the United States strategic position in the Middle East. But this is clearly not the case. B. The Iraq war has strengthened anti-U.S. elements and made the position of the United States and its allies more precarious. C. Empowered Iran in Iraq and region. The Islamic Republic of Iran is the primary strategic beneficiary of the U.S.-led intervention in Iraq. The end of Saddam Husseins regime removed Irans most-hated enemy (with whom it fought a hugely destructive war in the 1980s) and removed the most significant check on Irans regional hegemonic aspirations. D. Many of Iraqs key Iraqi Shia Islamist and Kurdish leaders enjoy close ties to Iran, facilitating considerable influence for Iran in the new Iraq. E. Created terrorist training ground According to the U.K. Maplecroft research groups most recent index, Iraq is the third-most vulnerable country in the world to terrorism.- 10 F. The years of U.S. occupation in Iraq created not only a rallying call for violent Islamic extremists but also an environment for them to develop, test, and perfect various tactics and techniques. These tactics and techniques are now shared, both in person and via the Internet, with extremists all over the region and the world, including those fighting U.S . troops in Afghanistan. G. Loss of international standing. While abuses are perhaps inevitable in any military occupation, the images and stories broadcast from Iraq into the region and around the world have done lasting damage to the United States reputation as a supporter of international order and human rights. H. Gen. David Petraeus has said that the damage done to the United States image by Abu Ghraib is permanent, calling it a nonbiodegradable- 11 event. __________ Endnotes: 10 Newly formed South Sudan joins Somalia, Pakistan, Iraq, and Afghanistan at top of Maplecroft terrorism ranking, Maplecroft News, August 3, 2011, available at http://maplecroft.com/about/news/terrorism_in...

We are thinking of staying at juniper springs but trip advisor has some really bad reviews, although some of these are old. Is this a good place to stay or is the service and rooms as bad as some people say? Also, is it too far away from the village? I've been told village access is easy on shuttle buses. I love ski in ski out but not if that means we are isolated
Hi Michelle, I have stayed a Juniper Springs and it is an upscale unit, right at the Eastern base of Mammoth Mountain. It is ski in, ski out at the Eagle Lift, but that sometime closes early in the year (although with the snowfall so far it should easily be good through the end of April). It is a little out of the way, but the shuttles run fairly frequently from Juniper Springs to the Village, then on to Canyon Lodge. The transportation website says they only go to 5:30, but I know they go later. It is probably only a 10 minute shuttle to the Village, so I would not call that isolated. As to the quality, maybe from a price standpoint some people find they pay more than what they would expect, but the ski in/ski out places do command a premium. Personally I prefer to stay at the Austriahof, about 150 yards (across the parking lot) from the Canyonlodge. It is not fancy, kind of funky, been there since I started skiing in Mammoth 30+ years ago, but a lot less expensive than JS. Plus they have a good bar where you can get hot, spiced mulled wine. let me know if you have any questions. Karl

Today is not a good day. Not only did Abby keep both my husband and I up last night, but she's been fussy all day (to be fair, she woke up with a really bad diaper rash this morning). I've been grumpy because on top of the lack of sleep from her fussing and crying last night, I didn't sleep well due to third trimester sleep woes. Somehow we've got to get things together and go to church tonight, ready to love on and lead the youth.
And honestly? I don't want to. I don't feel like it. Even after a nap, I'm still tired and worn out.
But this morning I read Psalm 23. Verse 6 begins this way in the ESV: "Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life…" Even on days like today when I don't feel like doing anything and I tell myself I'm worthless because I'm not trying. Even on days like today when I feel like I have nothing left to offer my family. His goodness and unfailing love pursue me. They follow me. They chase me.
On days like today, it's up to me to choose to believe that they're here or not. Today? I choose to trust.

Estate agents
Estate agents act for the seller, who pays the agent according to the terms of the contract between them. Questions such as fees, written contract, and sole or multiple agencies are all dealt. Generally, the seller pays the agent only after he or she introduces someone who completes the purchase of the property. Estate agents also advise the seller on the likely price which he or she can expect on the sale of their house. If you want a valuation from a surveyor, that would have to be separately arranged. Once you instruct an agent to act for you, you become responsible for supplying the estate agent with accurate information about your property. Estate agents rely on this information which the seller provides to them for making up their particulars of sale. They are not expected to establish the accuracy of the information which they receive from the seller, unless there is something which would put the agents on the alert and raise a query in their minds. Estate agents also usually print a disclaimer on the property's particulars which they distribute. The disclaimer could absolve the agent for misrepresentation but would not protect a seller who provided misleading information in the first instance.
Your instructions will differ only in certain regards depending on whether you buy or sell. (Quite often, of course, people conclude both deals simultaneously by selling their own house and buying another.)
(1) You must ensure that all the persons with an interest in the property are parties to a contract of sale, and inform your conveyancer of any such interest.
(2) You will have to instruct your conveyancer whether you intend to pay the estate agent's commission from the sale proceeds or in some other way.
(3) You must instruct your conveyancer to prepare a draft contract of sale once you have accepted an offer.
(4) Your conveyancer will receive the 10 per cent deposit for you after exchange of contracts.
(5) In general a seller is entitled to the deposit if a buyer fails to complete after contracts have been exchanged. There are also other legal remedies available to compensate for failure to complete in certain instances.
(6) In all cases, do try to establish, in advance, the costs involved in the conveyancing. These are generally slightly lower for selling a house than the fees involved in a house purchase.
(7) You will have to make all proper arrangements in advance to pay off your existing mortgage on the property, if any. Your conveyancer will have to obtain the title deeds from the lender in order to have them re-registered in the name of the purchaser.
(8) Although the buyer becomes liable for insuring the property once contracts have been exchanged, you are not advised to cancel your existing policy until completion has actually taken place. You should, however, inform your insurers of the current position. The Association of British Insurers issues helpful leaflets on all aspects of house insurance.
Surfing the Web
A growing number of sellers are deciding to cut out the middleman and sell their property on the Internet. There are many and varied sites, from which you can sell, buy or rent your home, including, for example, www.upmystreet.com; www.easier.co.uk; and many more. Trying to sell without using an estate agent can be full of pitfalls. As in any other area, the D1Y approach will involve extra work and possibly a degree of risk. Prospective buyers will not have been vetted by an estate agent before you see them so be sure to take a telephone number and call them to confirm appointments.
• when you arrange a viewing make sure there is someone else in the house with you
• ask whether the buyer is in a chain or has sold his/her property
• do not exaggerate or mislead when describing the property
• be realistic about the price you want
• retain a good solicitor.

In the Cross-country skiing events at the Winter Olympics there are a total of 12 events, six each for men and women. The events have both classical and freestyle skiing.
1.5 kilometers (1500-meters) Sprint Freestyle
15km classical
50km freestyle
4x10km relay (the first two skiers use the classical style, the last two skiers use freestyle)
Men's Combined Pursuit 15km(Both Classical and Freestyle techniques are used)
Men's Team Sprint
1.5km (1500 Meters) Sprint Freestyle
10km classical
30km freestyle
4x5km relay (the first two skiers use the classical style, the last two skiers use freestyle)
Women's Combined Pursuit 7.5km (Both Classical and Freestyle techniques are used)
Women's Team Sprint
Types of Races (Olympic)
Individual Racing
This is simply when individuals race against the clock and the skier with the best time wins.
Relay Racing
This race consists of four skiers racing over a course, in the Men's event each skier will ski 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) in the Women's event each skier will ski 5 kilometers (3.10 miles). The first two skiers will use the classical style technique and the last two skiers use the freestyle technique. A group start will be used for the first skiers in each team. When one team member is finishing their portion of the race and the next racer will start their portion of the race, an exchange must take place. There will be a 30-meter (98 foot) long area where the finishing skier must touch their teammate's hand so that this skier then can start their portion of the race. The first skier to cross the finish line will win the race for their team.
Combined Pursuit
The Combined Pursuit consists of a Classical race that is followed by a Freestyle race. For women the entire race is 10 Kilometers (6.2 miles) 5 Kilometers for the Classical portion and 5 kilometers for the Freestyle portion. For men the race is 10 Kilometers (6.2 miles) long for the classical portion and 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) for the Freestyle portion. The order that the skiers finish the Classical race will determine the order they start the Freestyle race. The first skier across the finish line wins.
All the races are against the clock, except for relays, sprint and the second half of the pursuit. In these three races it is the first skier to cross the finish line that is the winner.
Skiing Techniques
Classical Technique
In Classical Style skiing the skier will use the traditional style diagonal stride and they are also allowed to use double poling. The movement is a striding movement with one leg moving forward while the other leg will be momentarily stationary preparing to move forward. When the skier is preparing to move forward the arm and pole on the opposite side of the leg that is pushing will be moving forward to prepare for the other leg to push off and propel the skier down the track. In this movement the ski poles will be plated in the snow at opposite intervals. When a skier uses double poling both of the poles will go into the snow at the same time and the skier will have their legs together. So the skier is actually pulling himself or herself using the ski poles to move forward. Double poling is most often used when the skier is going up a hill.
Freestyle Technique
As the name implies Freestyle Technique is allowed to use all of the movements in Cross-country skiing along with a skating style. The skating style gets its name, as you might of guessed, from ice-skating. The movement is the same as used in ice skating, but of course because skies are longer then ice skates the skies must be placed at an angle so they are not constantly hitting each other. Freestyle skiers can obtain speeds faster then those using the classical style.
Please see the Cross-county Skiing Glossary for an explanation of the different skiing terminology used in Cross-country Skiing.
Rules for Cross-country Skiing
Starting a Race
When a race is about to begin, 10 seconds before the race begins to be precise, the starter will call out Attention and at 5 seconds will start counting down. When electronic timing is used the skier can start the race 3 seconds before or 3 seconds after the go signal is given. If the skier starts early, before the 3 seconds, they must first go behind an extension of the starting line that is beyond the starting gate and then begin the race.
Group or Mass Start
Classical Start
When there is a group or mass start, the skiers will be put into groups. Skiers will have 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) of space between them. The arc of a circle serves as the starting line and has a radius of 100-meters (328 feet). When the race is using the Classical technique, there will be marked parallel tracks for the first 100 to 200 meters (328 to 656 feet) that the skiers must follow. The next 100 meters will see the number of tracks cut in half and then the number of tracks will go down to 2 to 3 tracks soon after this 100 meters ends.
Freestyle Start
During a mass start and using the Freestyle technique, the skiers are not allowed to use the skating technique for the first 100-200 meters but must use the parallel tracks. After this first 100 to 200 meters the track will open up and the skating technique can then be used.
Pursuit Start
In the Pursuit Start it is the winner of the first race that will start first followed by all of the other skiers in the order that they finished. The differences in the finishing times will be the difference for the starting times. The first 200 meters of the track should be cleared so it is at least 6 meters (19 feet) wide.
Equipment Replacement and Maintainting
Skis will be marked before the start of individual races, as a safeguard against a skier changing a ski during the race. Only ski poles can be replaced during individual competitions, but not skis. During a Relay or a Combined competition a ski that is broken or damaged can be exchanged.
Cleaning, waxing or scraping skis during a competition is not allowed, except in classical skiing events. And this must be done off to the side of the track and can only be done by the skier, no outside assistance is allowed.
Any skier that is going to be passed must allow the other skier to pass the first time the passing skier gives notice that they are going to pass. Unless the race is in the final 200 meters, then the skier being passed does not have to move out of the way to be passed.
The last 200 meters of a racecourse should be as straight as possible. In Classical competitions this last 200 meters should have 3 separate tracks and in Freestyle Competitions the course should be a minimum of 9 meters (29 feet) wide.
In the Olympics there are a number of officials.
Chief of the Competition. They are in-charge of the entire competition.
Chief of the Course. They are in-charge of the courses.
Technical Delegate who is in-charge of a 5-member jury.
5-member jury. The jury makes sure the competition is run according to FIS rules.
There will be 2 other associate persons that will be picked by the FIS.
There will also be a person in-charge of time keeping.

The Book Thief Chapter 50 Summary
The Visitor
Liesel is playing soccer on Himmel Street when she learns that the NSDAP (the Nazi Party) is measuring people's basements, to see if they are deep enough to be good bomb shelters.
She needs to find a way to warn Hans, Mama, and Max without looking suspicious.
So, she rams into one of the boys playing soccer and gets a bloody knee.
A rather friendly Nazi comes forward to help her and tells her she should get home.
Rudy volunteers to take her, and she wishes he wasn't so up in everybody's business all the time.
Still, she asks Rudy to get Hans for her, and he does.
When he gets her in the house, she tells him the news.
He says she's smart.
They decide to hide Max under the bed in Liesel's room; as far as they know, the NSDAP isn't searching, just measuring basements.
Before they have a chance to move him, the Nazis knock on the door.
Hans quickly makes the sounds of warning to Max.
He decides they will simply open the door and act as normal.
Rosa answers and stalls them for a little time, like only Rosa can.
The same Nazi who had helped Liesel when she fell, notices her there in the kitchen and gets excited and friendly.
Hans is cleaning her bloody knee.
Hans pretends to be unconcerned when the Nazi man heads down to the basement.
It only takes three minutes, but for Liesel, Hans, and Rosa, they are the longest three minutes ever.
Hans goes to the top of the stairs and asks if the man if he wants anything to drink.
Now Hans is telling Liesel to go do her reading. The Nazis are coming back up the steps.
He tells them that their basement isn't deep enough to be a bomb shelter, and then he leaves, wishing everybody, especially Liesel, a cheery good-bye.
Liesel, Rosa, and Papa make their way to the basement.
They move the drop cloths and the cans of paint and see Max, hiding under the stairs, holding his rusty scissors.
He says, "I wouldn't have used them. […] I'm so sorry I put you through that" (50.147).
Rosa takes the scissors, and says "You're alive. […] We all are" (50.149).
(It's not clear whether Max is talking about using the scissors to try to kill himself, or to try to kill the Nazi if the Nazi had found him.)

Fall 2012
Ermenegildo Zegna
From Glen plaid to Fair Isle, houndstooth to gun check, Ermenegildo Zegna leaned on classic, scratchy patterns in wool, tweed, and corduroy this season. And texture was key—every model walking the runway was wearing gloves, better to protect from the barrage of rough-hewn material. But beneath the surface, in lining and layering, was notably soft to the touch—cotton turtlenecks, plaid-lined denim, and audacious shearling-lined outerwear doubled over and under Zegna's trademark tailored suits. This show closed with a sleek shawl collar tuxedo—but make no mistake, this was a whimsical collection for the cold months, comprising a gentleman's arsenal with work-to-weekend versatility.

What could be an alternative location for your museum?
Posted: February 26th, 2013 | Author: Jasper Visser | Filed under: Buildings, Thoughts about museums | Tags: alternatives, building, ideas, location | 2 Comments »Tweet
Photo by Alex T. on Flickr.
Virgin Atlantic has created an in-flight gallery for its business class passengers. And why not? Buildings are expensive, often have at best a local reach and need to be cleaned and painted all the time. There are better options. Following up on a popular posts from lightyears ago* about what a museum could be as well, today I'd like to reflect on where a museum could be.
(By the way, I do hope the magnificent Air and Space Museum near the airport in Washington opens an in-flight gallery soon, which would be the coolest Droste trick ever.)
- Hotel rooms. (Good people at MuseumNext last year thought of an app to do so.)
- The central train station in Utrecht, the Netherlands, which is probably the world's worst place to be, full of empty space and stuff put there by the municipality to enlighten the lives of travellers which it utterly fails to do.
- Any airport, not just Amsterdam Airport (where you can visit the Rijksmuseum and until recently science centre Nemo, now replaced by a juice bar).
- Malls and shopping centres.
- My living room with its enormous white walls I will one day fill with art but haven't yet had the money for.
- Supermarkets (as long as you can sell parts of your collection).
- Empty shop displays as is being done in many places around the world. (My favourite at the moment, and I'm completely biased because I worked on the project: Van Gogh in Amsterdam.)
- The walls and windows of unused buildings, as Candy Chang does with many of her installations.
- Forgotten, unused railway tunnels. (R.I.P. Old Vic Tunnels.)
- Anywhere people queue.
- Mars.
What about you? What is the most extraordinary place you have seen (or can imagine) a museum?
* I know a lightyear is a measure for distance, not time, I really do.

I just saw a picture of the new store? Where is it going to be from the old store or is it just attached?
I just saw a picture of the new store? Where is it going to be from the old store or is it just attached?
From what I understand, I think it is on the main drag of Hamilton, their old store was about a block off the main drag. Correct me if I'm wrong, I was only there once, and had to drive around a bit to find the store.
Where is Hamilton? Do not know that town. But want to.
Blankets wrap you in warmth, quilts wrap you in love
A quilt is something you make to keep someone you love...WARM.....
What I make with my hands, I give of my heart.
Between Chillocothe and i-35 on US36, 209 miles from St. Louis.
The new shop is here - http://g.co/maps/fd2gv
The old shop is here - http://g.co/maps/ehq2k
Here are directions from the old to the new - http://g.co/maps/ycnq7 it is 469 feet from one to the other according to google
I just hate it. I live 800 miles from the new shop! I would love to go there.
I'm with you...I live 23,667kms from Hamilton, Missouri and travel includes ferry travel, toll roads and crossing through Japan, kayaking across the Pacific Ocean (6,243kms) (if you get directions from Google maps) LOL Might be easier just to fly! Hahahaha
I have recently checked out the old and the new shop on Google Earth. It is so much fun exploring the world from my desk
Am looking forward to seeing the new shop finished. Everyone involved is doing such a great job.
Hopefully we won't be subjected to more pics of Jenny showing us the bathroom (joke) LOL Nice shot BTW Jenny!
May your sorrows be patched and your joys be quilted
LOL, Sharon just know that you can take a break on my rock and we can switch to a double kayak for the rest of the journey to Burbank, CA. We'll pick up my DD Kat and the kids...continue on with a huge caravan of gals through the states to visit Jenny and her girls and boys. What a riot that would be.
BTW, I want the back seat of the Kayak, in case I want to pretend that I'm rowing. Hehe

So glad you included comments....
Were those the only two your diary garnered? I was looking forward to reading what was being said as heads were blowing up right and left.
In 2006 - after Charles Schumer and Barack Obamney shafted CT Dems over Joe Lieberman - Schumer posted a diary at DK. I was (luckily) the first commenter and my comment started with "FUCK SCHUMER" (yes, in all caps!). Wellllll, you can image what followed. 750+ troll ratings - I actually used one of my sock puppet names to go back in and defend me. What a day that was!
Oh, by the way, you were right about parsing the words. And it still continues.

With respect to selling anything from boots to paintings to pots and pans, what considerations should I be trying to address when creating listings?
Whether you are shopping Amazon or eBay, many products need that tangible feel; for instance clothing and boots and purchasing them without trying them on. What is the best way to try to quell misgivings a consumer has when buying sight unseen? To begin, I assume that having many hi-res images, close-ups, and a sterling return policy can go a long way. What other elements can I as a merchant include in an item's online listing to make a consumer feel effectively educated and firewalled against risk about their purchase?

QFT, but the reverse opinion is equally valid. In a different topic I put forth an idea to (later on, if implemented) help premade groups find other groups. Since this topic is more related to that idea, though, I'll repeat it here but with prologue.
The prologue is that I see two issues working against premades. The first issue is that any one group wanting to queue as a premade must be on the same shard. This severely limits the pool of players available to from a premade group. The second issue is there is no system in place for people to form a full group premade be it across shards or not. The system needs queued premades to create a match.
Addressing the 2nd issue first, I suggest that a "pre-queue" be created by designers. When that pre-queue is full then it, that pre-queue itself, could be queued by the raid leader for a premade match. This effectively eliminates unwilling pugs although pugs could join a pre-queue if they want to. The pre-queue system would need to work across shards.
On to the first issue. The system must have premade groups queued in order to make a match. This is a two part issue. The pre-queue system idea (above) needs to accept queues across shards to increase the number of people who are eligible (or who just want to play with friends). This might mean that the pre-queue itself not be limited to a shard group but be open to all shards.
Now to the 2nd part of that first issue. People have to know that others are looking to populate a pre-queue. An immediate solution, if pre-queues existed, is to use special and advertised (in these forums) TeamSpeak and Mumble servers (both of which can work on player comps if they have sufficient bandwidth and a static IP address) so that others can know that people are trying to form a pre-queue. In the long run, some sort of ingame chat channel for that specific purpose could also be created, but it would have to work cross shard and therefore be limited to what kind of announcements it can make (i.e. no individual talking permitted).
Just something to talk about. I hope people find it worth positive discussion.

finally bought my own laptop, ASUS K40Ij review
Finally, I bought a laptop for myself. This is a dream come true for me. This is my first investment since I got my job. And I am happy.
The model is ASUS K40IJ, great deal. It came with a free Canon printer when I purchased this laptop last May. It does not include an OS though. I bought Windows Starter for PhP 2.7K. I did not like Windows Starter, you can't personalize your laptop that much. You can not change your desktop wallpaper with Starter. So, I decided to upgrade to Home Premium through Windows Anytime Upgrade. Then on, I like Windows 7.
*Just thought of posting my wallpaper.
Asus K40IJ is a perfect laptop for me. This is suitable for web designers like me. Its temperature is cool no matter how many hours it operates. I can leave my laptop ON for 24 hours 7 days a week yet it does not overheat. Also, this laptop is not that heavy to carry. Pretty portable!

The term nanotechnology returns 18,200,000 results using the google search engine.

Studies have Revealed
Nanotechnology is a very important thing in our lives, there is no doubt about that. The survey results have showed that people are not very aware of it. With 13% of the people not knowing even the term, it probably shows that these people may not be users of nanotechnology or unknowing users of it. Nanotechnology is appearing quite often on the news, with many countries putting money into its research and development. Thus, the term probably always comes attached with a price tag on it rather than an explanation of how it works, which explains the significantly lower number of people who know how nanotechnology works.
Nanotechnology is a highly important aspect in our lives but some people show no knowledge of how it is used and how it actually works. They should be educated about this important element in their lives.
I, Ola, hope to achieve that with this website!

The San Francisco Giants wasted a magnificent performance by Hunter Pence, losing to the Colorado Rockies 9-8 Tuesday night in San Francisco.
Pence had four hits and drove in six runs including a 3-run bottom-of-the-first inning home run to set the Giants on their way to a 6-0 nothing lead.
Giants starting pitcher, Ryan Vogelsong, for the second straight game, had trouble getting out of the fifth inning, and by innings-end, the Rockies had scored five runs and sent Vogelsong to the showers.
With hopes of stabilizing the now perilous performance by the pitching staff, Bruce Bochy used six pitchers in relief; none of which were effective. After Michael Cuddyer's second home run of the game in the ninth inning, the Giants found themselves on the losing end of a 9-8 score.
"It's a character-builder for us. Being down six runs early, it would have been easy to pack it in, we didn't do that," Cuddyer said.
Sergio Romo took the loss for the Giants and Wilton Lopez got the win for the Rockies.
Final game of the three-game set is scheduled for Wednesday afternoon at 12:45p.m.

Keys to the Centres: the Routes
For a better understanding of the Art, Culture and Tourism Centres, two main thematic routes can be identified: the North Route and the South Route. These are connected to an imaginary central "axis" which, starting from Arrecife (the island's capital), would split the island in two.
North Route
Broadly speaking, the relief in the north of the island is steeper and more precipitous than the south. We can situate two major geographical features that define the landscape: El Risco de Famara, which runs lengthways over 22 kilometres in the northernmost reaches of Lanzarote. This is the steepest part of the island and is of great environmental interest.On the other side, La Corona volcano, the eruptive activity of which (dating back, according
to geologists, 3,000 ? 5,000 years) gave rise to an extensive volcanic field ? a place of great interest and landscape beauty, known as "malpaís" ? which extends from the foot of the volcano to the coast.
Additionally, in the north of the island, there is a group of islets known as the Chinijo Archipelago: La Graciosa, Alegranza, Montaña Clara, Roque del Este and Roque del Oeste, also known as Roque del Infierno. These, together with El Risco de Famara, constitute an area of exceptional value in terms of nature and landscape in the Canary Islands.
Centres in the North
The following centres are situated on the North Route: El Mirador del Río, high up on the Risco de Famara; La Cueva de los Verdes and Los Jameos del Agua, in the Malpaís of La Corona; and the final spatial work of César Manrique, and perhaps the most metaphorical: the Jardín de Cactus (Cactus Garden) in Guatiza.
How can I visit the northern region?
The ideal visit has to combine a tour of the Centres with the localities and countryside of the north of the island, which is of great beauty and full of local colour.
There we find villages with a real maritime flavour, away from hubbub of tourists, such as Arrieta, Punta Mujeres and Órzola, and quiet villages in the interior of the island, like Haría, Guatiza or Teguise which all hold a great many attractions for visitors.
As an additional activity, in Orzola, the Isla de la Graciosa can be reached by boat.

Comments about Bissell Total Floors Wet and Dry Hard Surface Cleaner:
Our home has all hardwood floors throughout along with a cat and a dog. When my previous floor cleaner stopped working I was in a predicament. A co-worker recommended this machine so I bought one and I love it. It works great and vacuums up the water wonderfully so floors dry very quickly.

Director : George Lucas
Screenplay : George Lucas & Walter Murch (story by George Lucas)
MPAA Rating : R
Year of Release : 1971 (2004 re-release)
Stars : Robert Duvall (THX 1138), Donald Pleasence (SEN 5241), Don Pedro Colley (SRT), Maggie McOmie (LUH 3417), Ian Wolfe (PTO), Marshall Efron (TWA), Sid Haig (NCH), John Pearce (DWY), Irene Forrest (IMM)
When young, first-time director George Lucas presented his debut feature THX 1138 to the executives of Warner Bros. in 1970, they were appalled. They hated it. Of course, at the time, they had no idea that Lucas would become one of the most influential and economically successful filmmakers in cinema history; to them, he was just a bearded, bespectacled kid who had been given free reign and had produced a dense, slow dystopian science fiction fable about bureaucratic oppression. Even in the early 1970s, when movie studios were handing over the keys to the wunderkind directors of the New Hollywood, the suits at Warner Bros. couldn't believe what they had on their hands.
As a result, executives ordered that five minutes be trimmed from the film, and it was given virtually no marketing support. When it was eventually released in 1971, it sank, but Lucas did not. He went on to direct American Graffiti for Universal in 1973, which turned out to be one of the most profitable films ever made. Four years later, he wrote and directed Star Wars (1977), and the rest, as they say, is history.
THX 1138 is being re-released to theaters before its debut on DVD, which is not the first time it has made a repeat appearance in theaters, since Warner Bros. thought they could cash in on the Star Wars juggernaut back in 1978 with a re-release that restored the five minutes that had been cut out. The film has thus become an odd footnote in Lucas' filmography, a movie so starkly different than anything else he's ever been associated with that it's hard to imagine he was behind it. Austere, cerebral, and sometimes maddeningly cold, it would seem that THX 1138 is the visual and tonal opposite of the space western Star Wars.
Yet, there are similarities to be found if one is inclined to look for them, so much so that THX 1138 is like a more dense thematic version of Star Wars. Both films focus on the deadening effects of technology and bureaucracy, and we can see in the stark, modernist architecture of its futuristic city hints of the Empire's fascist aesthetic. Both films are ultimately about humanity versus technology, probably the core theme of the science fiction genre, and if THX 1138 feels cold it is because humanity isn't allowed even a hint of triumph until the very end, when the hero literally breaks out into the sunlight.
The story takes place in an unspecified future in which humans have been reduced to automatons in a rigidly controlled society of meaningless production and consumption. The society appears to be run by massive computers that enforce the law with faceless robots in leather police uniforms, the ultimate symbol of unfeeling subjugation. Humans exist to do nothing more than reproduce the technology that holds them captive, and the technology's mechanical coldness is then reproduced in the humans via the state-enforced consumption of sedatives. As the film was made at the end of the swingin' 1960s, audiences had to recognize the darkly humorous irony of the characters being jailed for not taking drugs.
The title of the film is the name of the main character, played by Robert Duvall. THX 1138 becomes a rebel when he and his roommate, LUH 3417 (Maggie McOmie), stop taking their sedatives and discover the intensities of human and sexual emotion, which are strictly outlawed. Borrowing heavily from Aldous Huxley's Brave New World and George Orwell's 1984, Lucas shows that there is nothing more threatening to ordered fascism than human passion, and for his mini-rebellion THX 1138 is jailed in a wall-less prison whose blank expansiveness is as oppressive as any claustrophobic space. He eventually escapes and begins to make his way out of the city, which we learn is buried deep underground, an apt visual metaphor for the society's insistence on burying emotion to maintain order.
Lucas shot THX 1138 on a shoestring budget, making great use of existing modernist structures like the Marin County Civic Center in San Rafael, California. He also used the unfinished subway tunnels being completed beneath San Francisco, which allowed him to stage an impressively sustained chase sequence in which THX 1138 steals a police car and is pursued by a pair of robots on motorcycles that sound not unlike the landspeeders in Return of the Jedi (1983). Lucas being Lucas, though, he was never fully satisfied with the scope of his film, so he has recently added a few digital flourishes to expand the background of some wide shots. Unlike the digital tampering he's done with his Star Wars films, these additions don't stand out unduly, but rather add to the mise-en-scene and enhance the futuristic world.
Even more impressive than the film's visuals, though, is its soundscape, which was engineered by Walter Murch, who also cowrote the screenplay and later did similarly fantastic work on Francis Ford Coppola's The Conversation (1974). The film is constantly layered with a montage of sound that both provides background and also fills in important plot and character information without being obtrusive. Not surprisingly, the student film Lucas made at USC on which THX 1138 is an extension was virtually all sound, with only abstract images filling the screen.
THX 1138 is clearly the product of a gifted young filmmaker who stayed true to his vision. Executive producer Francis Ford Coppola, who hadn't yet become the powerful director of The Godfather (1972), but who did own his own production company, encouraged Lucas to maintain his artistic integrity at all costs, even if he eventually had to concede to the executives and trim the film before its initial release. It's not a great film, particularly because Lucas never makes the emotion passionate enough; even when the characters break free of their sedated bondage, they aren't much more excited than when they were drugged into a stupor. But, even with such a central flaw, THX 1138 is a perpetually fascinating film, especially in light of Lucas' subsequent career. It's enough to make you hope that, once Episode III is finished, he will return to this more austere mode and use his industry power to produce something that truly challenges.

Eight people in Fresno's code enforcement received layoff notices.
The workers got the notices late last week and earlier this week.
Code enforcement officers patrol neighborhoods and other locations to make sure that city standards are enforced. Violations include: abandoned vehicles, illegal dumping, open vacant structures, tall weeds, discarded tires, etc.
Fresno City Councilman Sal Quintero says the new round of cuts will take a toll on the city. "Not being able to make property owners come into compliance... that hurts and area and brings it down even more, so by cutting these positions, it makes matters worse," said Quintero.
Quintero is working to get some of those positions reinstated.

Just saw this on NY Times website: Supreme Court to Take Up Gay Marriage
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court announced on Friday that it would enter the national debate over same-sex marriage, agreeing to hear a pair of cases challenging state and federal laws that define marriage to include only unions of a man and a woman.
Decisions in all of those cases are expected by June.
NCR subscribers are in for a treat: Our current edition includes a special section devoted to Saints--content you can't get online. Preview here.
In response, the U.S. bishops' conference issued a statement from Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco, chairman of the bishops' Subcommittee for the Promotion and Defense of Marriage.
"The U.S. Supreme Court's decision to hear these cases is a significant moment for our nation," Cordileone said. "I pray the Court will affirm the fact that the institution of marriage, which is as old as humanity and written in our very nature, is the union of one man and one woman. Marriage is the foundation of a just society, as it protects the most vulnerable among us, children. It is the only institution that unites children with their mothers and fathers together. We pray for the Court, that its deliberations may be guided by truth and justice so as to uphold marriage's true meaning and purpose."

Comments about Platypus GravityWorks Carbon Element:
This is a nice addition to the already great gravityworks filter. It is probably about 2.5 inches long and only weighs a little over 1oz. Note that it does slow down the filter. After adding this mine takes a little more than twice as long to filter water. Even with the lower throughput this is the fastest and easiest filter I have ever used. I carry the carbon element along with the filter but only use it if I am filtering nasty water that wouldn't taste good on its own. It is very easy to attach in line with the filter so I can choose when I need to use it and attach or remove it without any trouble.

A good leader is able to figure people out and how they operate because they will be able to get the best out of their group this way. When a leader incorporates a dominant voice that breaks through others when needed, this is a powerful trait.
A leader should be able to understand his group or employees and what makes them "tick" so they are always getting maximum productivity. Having a strong voice when things get out of hand and the ability to get the rest of the group back on track is really important. Using it and abusing it are two different things how ever, you don't want to always have to be yelling at the top of your lungs to restore order in your group.
