(CNN) - The number of Americans who say the economy is in good shape has dropped to the lowest level of the year, a CNN/ORC poll shows.
In the wake of the government shutdown, a whopping 71 percent of those polled say economic conditions are poor right now.
Only 29 percent say current conditions are good, a 4 percentage point drop from late September.
Americans aren't as optimistic about the economic recovery either, with nearly six in 10 predicting poor economic conditions a year from now.
The poll was conducted for CNN by ORC international October 18-20, with 841 adults nationwide questioned by telephone.

Hard. I found it to be hard for an 11a. However thats a little refreshing since many rumney 11as are a little soft. Just show up with your A-game and it will rock you like a hurricane. Start behind the birch tree on the steep wall. Climb bouldery moves on underclings and sidepulls to a super trick and somewhat sandy couple of moves to the midway ledge. Hear you can rest off the pump then move left and up in to a left leaning corner. Stem your way up the corner using some hard to find holds and on to the anchors above. As with a few of the routes at this crag some spots can be sandy but over all its nice quality and fun moves.
Just left of the super steep (and classic) Stoned Temple Pilots (5.11d). Start behind a birch tree and crank.
8 bolts to anchors
I agree that it felt hard for an 11a. I think the awkward sandy topout at the top of the first section was the harder part. Otherwise, the opening power moves are tons of fun, and the stemming and laybacks near the top were classic. Definitely worth doing. It is possible to set up a toprope for this one after doing niceland (10a) to the left, but you have to put draws on most of the bolts as you belay down, then unclip them as you climb.
hard for 11a, for sure!
Very good route. Crux is short. Upper corner is really nice. To me, this is one of the top 3 .11a at Rumney.

McCain Debate Victory a Catastrophic Success
Reader Comments
Thx, this has definitely made my day!
ghhhh5432 gfhg ghfgffff
message 20k-30k
huilo vagin 2
I have no argument with Mark (above) that Obama, whom I strongly support, does have something of a socialistic bent to his political philosophy. So I was not surprised to find him endorsing our latest foray down the path toward socialism with a 700 billion dollar "buy in" equity purchase by the federal government from the nation's financial institutions. However, I was genuinely surprised to discover that John McCain and Republicans nationwide have meekly gone along with the idea. So it isn't just Democrats that are traveling on that dangerous road. A much smarter solution would have been to simply open federal deposit accounts at qualified (meaning unlikely to fail) institutions in order to inject needed liquidity into the financial system. Think about it: in your own small way you inject liquidity into the system every time you make a deposit at your bank, savings and loan, credit union or other financial entity. But, surely, you don't consider such deposits as a "bailout" or "equity purchase." Rather, those are simply deposits, not investments. But it contributes to liquidity all the same. Given our nation's alleged support for capitalism, why are so many supporting a socialistic solution to the current financial crisis?
I listened carefully to both candidates during the first presidential debate and decided John McCain's essential pitch was: given that the country finds itself in dire straits, the sensible solution is to elect or re-elect people from the same political party that largely caused it to happen. Sorry, John, no sale.
I am surprised that Obama has gained ground in this economic crisis. It's very well documented that the mortgage collapse was started during Carter's administration, extended during Clinton's administration and heavily supported by and profited by democratic senators, especially Dodd, Obama and Barney during Bush's administration. The whole time during which it has been fought against primarily by conservatives and John McCain. This country is about to turn the reins over to one of the most corrupt and economically dangerous senator who, while claiming to be for the middle class, has screwed them out of mortgages while profiting by millions. The liberal media should not hide this information to protect their messiah. The public deserves to know about Obama's true past record before he breaks this great country. Please look up these facts before voting.
McCain can't debate by following the failed policies of President Bush. With the Bush administration forced to nationlize banks and investment firms, McCain can't give "straight talk" on something he doesn't have a clue about.
McCain has to answer for Bush's expantion of government called Homeland Security and his economic war policy now in effect. McCain needs to find a way to "T-Wall" political topics like the US did to separate the Sunnis and Shites from killing each other. As it stands now, Bush's foreign policy looks just like McCain's.
I watched the debate too. I am an independent voter who has voted for both parties in the past depending on the candidate.
This "review" is an extremely biased one. The author should have just said that he (and everybody else on CNBC) loves Obama and everything he says and stands for - without all this pretending to be doing a fair analysis. The sarcasm for McCain and the Obama hype in this article was heavy!
As I remember it, McCain said he wanted to freeze spending on most programs as the govt. ( congress authorizes spending - not the president.) was out-of-control in its spending with massive deficits now - while Obama kept on talking about his favourite programs he had in mind for even more spending, if he becomes president. Obama is a far more smooth talker than McCain - even calling the much more senior senator repeatedly by his 1st name while he himself was always being addressed as "Senator Obama".

I have to admit it started quite strong with fight scenes and even an erotic one (plus a brothel), but the show atmosphere resembled that of "The Falling Skies" and even "Terra Nova" too much to my taste. What I mean I couldn't feel any anxiety. Not for a moment was I afraid that something bad might happen to the main characters. By the way, great casting.
I am afraid to make this analogy, but "Defiance" feels like "The Firm" to me. Everything great: the script, the actors, the settings, but the outcome quite uninteresting.
It was just a pilot so I do hope that "Defiance" will develop into a nail-biting show and engrossing story.

Kent24 gave this placeWow! Not a good place anymore. / If you have something don't spread it to others. Wear Condoms.Just got back home. Was at this place and wow! Can't get over what happened. Guys only wanted Poppers and Drugs. One guy said he was only there to spread around what he has to others. Talk about scary. I hope that everyone has protection/ Condoms. No telling how many people that guy has Infected today. Management don't seam to care what goes on in that place. As for me I won't be back due to this morning. Guys if you have something please don't spread it to others Always wear Condoms. A few other Guys left also due to the same thing and a few are also from out of town. Who wants to be Infected with something from another person. The reason how I knew about the other guys leaving we saw each other on the street and talked about what went on in the place.
rohanriots gave this placeHot TimeThis place is amazing. I'm a newbie and the reception workers were friendly and welcoming. I witnessed them keeping out a few drunks who would have brought the atmosphere down. I entered, disrobed in a small locker area, immediately getting a hard on by just being naked in front of other men. The showers face the lockers, giving both a nice view. I'm a young tall brown male. As soon as I walked around the facilities, which are huge, I was hit on by a few men. A few were a bit more gropy than I would have liked, and most of the men on this night (Tuesday) were older and fatter. But there were also a few young, hot men. I spent a lot of time in the jacuzzi/steam room areas. After about an hour, I was really horny and wanted another man to touch me. So I went to the steam work, took off my towel, sat in a corner and closed my eyes. I was fully hard, and waited. A man came and started jerking me off which was really hot, because I kept my eyes closed the whole time. He left, and I went to the jacuzzi, where I met two hot young men. I am pretty shy, but one of them started running his hand up my leg until he began rubbing my penis, getting it hard. The three of us began kissing and sucking each other off, giving the rest of the men a nice show. I took one of the boys to an open room where he fucked me. It was hot. Can't wait to go again!

If you are studying Agatha Christie's novels in class or as part of a summer reading program, you might find the following areas of the site useful:
You can always ask in the Have Your Say forum for help with your papers – but don't expect anyone to give you the answers! Part of the fun with Christie is finding out for yourself: who killed and why? Good luck!
If you really get stuck – there are a number of online resources out there that will help you understand the themes displayed in And Then There Were None – but we make no recommendation or warranty for the quality of the material you will find!
Spark notes for And Then There Were None (free to access online)
Spark notes for Murder on the Orient Express (free to access online)
Don't forget to check out the games section – we think you'll enjoy Death on the Nile and Peril at End House in particular - downloadable games where you have to find numerous "hidden" objects and clues in order to progress the story. And if you find yourself bitten by the Christie bug there's plenty more to enjoy ...
Please contact us if you have any comments, questions or suggestions on these resources.

I've tried to make this list up of slightly off-the-track places, or places you wouldn't find in your guide book. In fact, it mainly consists of personal favourite hangouts, shops that sell KISS stuff, and bars where I like to drink. For that reason you won't find Macy's or the Oyster Bar at Grand Central on the list. Buy a book for those. Or better still, get out there and explore yourself!
Academy Records
12 W. 18th St., New York, NY 10011 @ 5th Ave. (Check website for other locations)
Allegedly the citys biggest second-hand record store.
Addy and Ferro
672 Fulton St., Brooklyn, NY 11217 @ S. Elliott St.
Boho (remember that?) boutique, with vintage-inspired finds personally hunted down by the owners (that would be Addy and Ferro).
Air Market
97 Third Ave., New York, NY 10003 @ 12th St
For all your Hello Kitty, J-pop, and Cutie needs. Cool street brands sold here too, bizarrely.
13 Christopher St., New York, NY 10014 @ Gay St.
Super-girly boutique with one-off and designer pieces to make your purse cry.
Alife Rivington Club
158 Rivington St., New York, NY 10002 @ Clinton St.
Just about the coolest trainer (sorry, sneaker) shop in the world. No sign, just a mysterious buzzer.
Alpana Bawa
70 E. 1st St., New York, NY 10003 @ First Ave.
The ex-Comme des Garcons designer now runs this store selling her own brand. Eastern designs with a distinct NY-edge.
Andy Cheepees
37 St. Marks Pl., New York, NY 10003 @ Second Ave. (Other branches too check the site!
Vintage shopping the way it should be. Cheap and piled high.
Atomic Passion
430 E. 9th St., New York, NY 10009 @ First Ave.
Huge vintage store, with good prices and great quality.
660 Madison Avenue, New York NY 10021
New Yorks department store of choice. Cool designers, beautiful interiors forget Macys, this is the real deal. Dont forget to check out the Co-Op too for sale bargains.
Beacons Closet
88 N. 11th St. Brooklyn, New York NY 11211
New Yorks favourite, but most expensive, vintage store.
Big Drop
174 Spring Street, New York, NY 10012

Bleecker Bobs
118 West 3rd Street, New York, NY 10012
Vintage record store, with a heavy emphasis on punk and metal. You say that like its a bad thing.

Teeny tiny boutique selling one-offs and handmade bits and bobs.
Century 21
22 Cortlandt St., New York, NY 10007 @ Church St.
A bit like Hell, a bit like Heaven. Huge, packed, discount department store. The heavy, heavy reductions on names like Miu Miu, Marni and Marc Jacobs (and loads more designers not beginning with M) make the crowds (almost) worthwhile. Go EARLY.
Dave's Quality Meat
7 E. 3rd St., New York, NY 10003 @ Bowery
No meat here. This store is beloved of skaters and sneakerheads for its huge range of labels and styles. Although you can't pick up a kilo of sausages, they will wrap your purchases up like meat, if that helps.

I Heart
262 Mott St., New York, NY 10012 @ Prince St.
Not the official tourist store, despite the name. Bad-ass urban-y boutique featuring the likes of Tatty Devine and Philip Lim. Tough but girly, expensive but worth it.

Fun vintage store, selling everything from retro KISS toys to 1950s aprons. All cheap too!
43 Third Ave., New York, NY 10003 @ 10th St.
Cheapo vintage store, with a rock and roll edge.
Mini Mini Market

Trying to secure a dinner reservation on Friday evening for Saturday night is a near impossible task, especially in a moneyed city like Dublin. We just can't wait to part with our cash in return for overpriced food in trendy surroundings. With no room at the inn, socialite Quentin Fottrell was without venue for his birthday dinner at the weekend.
Ever the helpful friend though, I managed to book a table for 10 at 8pm on a Saturday night. It's the first time I have been thankful for the 'no reservation' policy that French restaurant l'Gueuleton operates. As I waited to put my name down for a table I was made aware of my prime position of 4th in the queue (me queuing, can you imagine!). In no time at all said queue stretched the entire length of the block. It was like the Soup Nazi episode of Seinfeld.
After a quick aperitif in Brooks Hotel (did I mention they have a new screening room there?), we ate like queens in l'Geuleton. Hilary Cahill, Peter O'Grady, Alan Whelan, Caroline and Olivia Morahan and Olivia's husband Fergal Noonan, Micheál Burke and I all joined in to celebrate the joy of Quentin's birthday.
Peter was wearing the same jumper as the birthday boy, albeit in a different colour.
"The brighter one is a much smaller size", declared Peter of his one.
"Yeah, 5 years ago, maybe!" quipped Quentin.
It's not unlike Q to be witty but on Saturday night he was on fire. We rounded off our night in Renards, where I also spotted rugby player Shane Byrne, Stuart Musgrave, Glenda Gilson and Today FM's Paul Collins.
Question of the night: Whose Bentley Arnage did I spot clamped on St. William Street at the weekend?

Remember |
December 7th, 1941. You are dozing in your barracks, trying to recover from a Saturday night out on the big town of Honolulu. You still have your dress pants on as you snore away the previous night's dancing. Christmas is coming and there are a lot of parties to attend. Fifty-one airplanes were on the ground at Hickam, the headquarters of the Hawaii Air Force. A flight of twelve B-17 Flying Fortresses en-route from California to the Philippines was expected that morning. Due to weight considerations, none of the B-17s were armed and were low on fuel after the long haul across the water. |
At 8:40am the Japanese struck Hickam, and by 9:45 the attack was over. Many of the B-17s were on the ground at the airfield; some were forced to attempt to land elsewhere. One enterprising pilot, forced away from Bellows, landed on the fairway of the Kahuku Golf Course. In all ten of the B-17s survived the attack, a bit worse for wear, and went on to play a vital role in the war in the Pacific.
In the course of an hour, Hickam's casualties totaled 121 men killed, 274 wounded and 37 missing. As many buildings on base were destroyed, the Honolulu Fire Department's Kalihi and Palalma stations responded to battle the blaze in the hangars. The enlisted men's barracks had been repeatedly strafed and bombed, the devastation can still be seen today in the walls. Where bullets went through the walls the holes are now framed in what is currently office space. |
Today, sixty-nine years later, many people do not know that Hickam also fell on that day. So much press has been given to Pearl Harbor, and rightly so as they had huge loss of life, while little has been said about the other attacks. The Japanese forces took out Kaneohe, Bellows, Hickam and other airfields around Oahu first as insurance that no aircraft would give chase during the second wave of attacks on Pearl Harbor Shipyard. |
Attending the ceremony was extremely moving for me personally. My father Lynn was a Navy pilot in WW II, his brother Newt was an Army Air Forces pilot who was shot down and held prisoner of war by the Japanese. My mother's brother, 1st Lt. James E. Roach was killed while faithfully serving his country in the U.S. Air Force.
The best way I can describe this is in pictures as I'm at a loss for words today. I have a photoset up here . Thank you to our Military for all your service in keeping my country safe. God bless you and our beautiful America. Aloha, |

Let's visit Kawaiahaʻo Church! |
In the midst of all the hustle and bustle of the Hawaii Government buildings sits the tranquil Kawaiaha'o Church and cemetery. Constructed between 1836 and 1842, the church was commissioned by the regency of Ka'ahumanu during the reigns of King Kamehameha II and King Kamehameha III. At the same time in the islands, the Roman Catholic Diocese began construction of The Cathedral of Our Lady of Peace in an effort to lure souls away from the Congregational Church. |
Four thatched churches stood at or near the present site before construction of the stone church. The church was constructed by Hawaiian divers with hand tools, quarrying beneath the ocean over 14,000 pound slabs of coral rock from an offshore reef on the southern coast of Oahu.
Chiefs of the Hawaiian Islands as well as the members of the royal dynasties attended services there until it was replaced by the The headstones in the graveyard read like the "Who's Who" of Hawaii movers and shakers. The lineage from the Castle and Cooke families are buried here as well as the descendants of others comprising the high society of Honolulu. |
There are a lot of mysteries to uncover as you stroll around the graveyard. Unmarked graves of the ancient Hawaiian's have been found here, as well as headstones such as "The Baby". Who is buried under these cryptic markers is anyone's guess and lost in time forever. The Mission Houses across the street from the church was the home of the clergy and remains to this day the site of the Oldest Frame House in the islands. The current Museum houses the Café Tea Parlor, which just happens to be one of my favorite little Downtown oasis! |
Parking is metered and available on the street, which can be a challenge and take a LONG time to find… But it's worth searching for an open spot. So if you want to stroll back in time and learn more about Hawaii's royal past, head on into town and spend some time at Kawaiahao Church. You'll be glad you did ! Aloha, |
Diamond Head Theater Acts Up! |
In October I took a backstage tour of Diamond Head Theater hosted by Artistic Director John Rampage to learn about the history of the theater here in Hawaii. The third-oldest, continuously operating theatre in the entire United States has a long history of community involvement through the art of theater. The "Broadway of the Pacific" is located on the slopes of Diamond Head in Honolulu and boasts thousands of volunteers to make this the jewel of the region's theater. |
Primarily started as a Ladies' social club, "The Footlights" membership was comprised of Honolulu societies crème de la crème. These affluent women met at each other's homes to read plays they had written. Men were not allowed to join! On April 28, 1915, the ladies put on the play "The Amazons" by Pinero. Staged at the Honolulu Opera House, the cast was made up of some of the Grande Dames of Honolulu: Mrs. Walter F. Dillingham, Helen Alexander, and Margaret Center. The Opera House was located where the main Post Office on Merchant Street now stands. |
In the early 1930's the name was changed to the Honolulu Community Theater and produced their first musical: Gilbert & Sullivan's The Mikado. During World War II, Honolulu Community Theater productions entertained thousands of troops with over 300 performances throughout the Pacific. Wartime curfews were enforced and cast and crew had to get special permits from the Honolulu Police Department to be allowed out and about after dark on Oahu. |
In 1952 the Theater moved to the Army's Fort Ruger Movie Theater at the foot of Diamond Head. In those early years the space was so small that stage sets had to be constructed across the street and moved by hand over to the theater.
Many years of expansion and construction to add on scene and costume shops, installation of lighting and sound systems, handicapped-accessible restrooms, lobby and an upstairs addition for expanded office space followed. In 1990 Honolulu Community Theater became Diamond Head Theater, the name it retains to this day. |
DHT provides acting, voice and dance classes for children, teens, and adults throughout the year. Many famous people got their start trotting the boards of the Diamond Head stage, including Hawaii's own Bette Midler ! You can see more photos from the tour here.
The Theater offers six productions a season, including five musicals. So there really is no excuse not to go see a piece of Hawaii history come alive: it's all there for you at the foot of Diamond Head! Artistic Director John Rampage tells us the history of the theater (Apologies for the lousy sound, I need to get a lavalier microphone) See you in the footlights, Biz |

It all adds at the register. I remember thinking I would have been better off spending that money in the produce section of my grocery store.
Eventually, I got tired of my two trips a day lugging gallons of water out to the patio. Yes I know there is such a thing as a garden hose, but it involved an even longer walk around the house and unwinding the darn thing.
After that first fruit I gave up entirely.
The following year the home stores started selling potted tomato plants complete with cage. A much better bargain for $14.99. I pick one up every year, but that, and tossing wildflower seeds into my garden beds is the extent of my gardening.
So why on earth am I planting a vegetable garden this year? Our back yard is on a slop, and except for the southwest corner there's really no place to put a garden. For years I've been eyeing the spot, but my husband had dibs for a shed he never got around to building.
This year instead of ruminating about a garden, and having him veto my idea with his shed. I asked if he was going to get around to building that shed this summer. It must have sounded like a demand to get it done because he was quick to say it wasn't going to happen.
"Well, then I think I'm going to put in a garden."
Who knew it was that easy?
Easy, but not cheap. The trip to the Home Depot cost me $77.12 for the cherry wood border, topsoil and fertilizer. I spent another $55.47 at Walmart for plants and seeds and assorted accessories, like gardening gloves and a hose.
There's no way I'm going up and down that hill to water twice a day. Our youngest broke his collarbone on a Slip & Slid down that hill. Leave it to the oldest to find a way to make a dangerous water slide even more dangerous and then make his brother go first.
Anyway, I can just see myself taking a tumble...
So I invested in a soaker that I can leave in the garden and all I have to do is turn it on and off by the back door. Then my husband got into the act, he's talking about building steps to make it easier for me to get up and down and he bought me a duel hose head and a misting wand so I can water the garden and the patio planters without having to attach and detach hoses or haul water.
I don't know what all that cost him, but it cost me nothing so I didn't add it to my total of $168.12
Counting $13.88 at the Dollar Tree for decorations. And a trip back to Walmart to the tune of $21.65 for mulch.
Am I crazy or what? I'm never going to be a canner like my mother-in-law. I don't have her time and patience or her green thumb. Or a farmer-size garden.
I'll be surprised if I even recoup my money in produce.
I'm already having gardener's remorse and I haven't put in a single plant yet. But when I'm sitting at the top of my hill, looking down on my little patch of earth none of that matters. I have a garden.
72 various seedlings, 12 cabbage, 6 cucumber, 3 tomato, 1 sweet pepper & and marigolds to keep the bugs out. Oh, and not enough room for them all! |
I'm giving away a $10 Gift Card to amazon.com so you can sit back and relax with a book while admiring your own patch or earth. Check back Saturday for a post announcing the winner.

historical novel now on Kindle/Nook:
"Confessions" (a new Akitada short story)
NEW - More
bundled stories on Kindle/Nook:
LIBRARY JOURNAL Picks MASUDA AFFAIR For Its
List of "Best of 2010" and both Publishers Weekly and Library Journal give
it starred reviews. |
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY (Review of THE FIRES OF THE GODS)
the pantheon of mystery books, I.J. Parker's stand alone. Far from simple
potboilers, her mysteries weave multiple plot threads into a lush tapestry
of Japanese society in the Heian period. Her latest book, The Convict's
Sword, features her detective, the judicial clerk Akitada Sugawara, trying
to clear the names of two friends, even as he makes decisions about his
family more serious than he ever imagined. The result is one of her best —
if not the best — books yet, a complex and heady mix of suspense and Asian
culture written with authority and flair." Read the whole review
than just a mystery novel, this is a superb piece of literature set against
the backdrop of 11th-century Kyoto." Read the whole review
(Starred Review) "Parker gives her protagonist an emotional depth that
raises her to the front rank of contemporary historical writers."
Read the whole review
here. "In Parker's hands, 11th century Japan comes alive in radiant fashion. Black Arrow is an exquisite book, suspenseful and action-packed, but also beautiful in its evocative descriptions and loving rendering of its subject." (David Montgomery in CHICAGO SUN-TIMES) "Black Arrow is a terrific mystery with a setting that is unforgettable... Parker's research is extensive and she makes great use of the complex manners and relationships in feudal Japan. At times the scenes may owe a bit to filmmakers such as Akira Kurosawa, but that's no criticism. This is a fine historical detective novel with good characterization and a great setting." (Margaret Cannon in THE GLOBE AND MAIL) (Review of BLACK ARROW)
(Starred Review) "Shamus-winner Parker's fourth
historical Sugawara Akitada novel (after 2006's Rashomon Gate) deftly
combines an action-packed plot with convincing period detail to bring
11th-century Japan to life."
"An elegant, oblique prologue set decades
before the main action finds Death preying on a young woman and her
frolicking baby in a flower-laden forest clearing. Akitada's fourth
adventure, as beautifully written as his first three, keeps his wife Tamako
in the background but adroitly develops his three sidekicks."
"Now comes the first Sugawara Akitada novel, a
rousing, whip-fast story of political intrigue and adventure in
eleventh-century Japan... told with a sure hand and a sharp sense of humor."
"Parker has created a wonderful protagonist in
Akitada, who, bound by tradition, finds himself in conflict with his
benevolent nature. Her ancillary characters... are as vividly drawn." |
I.J. PARKER won the Private Eye Writers of America Shamus Award for Best P.I. Short Story in 2000 for "Akitada's First Case," published in 1999. An Associate Professor of English and Foreign Languages (retired) at a Virginia university, Parker began research into eleventh century Japan because of a professional interest in that culture's literature. This led to the first Akitada short story, "Instruments of Murder," published in Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine. The Akitada series of mystery novels soon followed and led to foreign publication as the novels were translated into other languages. Later, Parker turned her attention to the turbulent events at the end of the twelfth century. Three novels are the result of this research: the two-volume saga THE HOLLOW REED and the action-adventure THE SWORD MASTER. Finally, there is also a literary novel, THE LEFT-HANDED GOD, set in eighteenth century Germany, a special labor of love. You can contact I.J. Parker at: email@example.com |

Hey yall!
I have been completely stuck on what to do, and the result has been doing nothing and not having a fully functioning computer. I have a 2.5 year old Macbook Pro, 2.2 ghz. The logic board is <1 year old, the battery is new, and the RAM has been upgraded to 4 GB within the last year. The screen is completely fried, however. (It has slowly degraded over time and now does not display anything). I currently have it hooked up to an external monitor. My options are: - Repair for ~$350 through a third party. - Buy a new Mac. (I would get the $2,200 MBP 15", i7) - Buy a cheap PC to limp through the rest of the school year (last year of grad school). Honestly, I don't want a PC, but 2 grand is a ton of money. I'm also hesitant to dump more cash into a machine that's slowing down, though still fully functioning. (I wonder if I can ebay if I buy a new one)? Any thoughts??? |

Obviously the $350 is your best option if the rest of the machine is working well, as that's by far the best value for money.
I think you're complicating the problem for yourself a bit by saying that the only thing you'd replace this 2.5 year old machine with is a top-of-the-like MBP. Why? Today's MacBook is more powerful than the machine you're on now. Heck, in some ways a MacBook Air is more powerful than the machine you have now! Either one of those costs a grand or so. From what you've said so far, the $350 is the best option. You can then save the money you DIDN'T spend on a new one and start saving for next year -- and whatever the latest and greatest is then as a graduation present for yourself! |

I don't think you should do anything but keep your current situation of an external monitor. If you are in your current year of grad school, you don't want to chance losing any files by getting it fixed, nor should you spend any money on electronics that are functioning at this point. Wait till you graduate and have the money and get next years top model.

Hi all - thanks for the replies.
So I reckon I don't REALLY need the i7. I'm just partial to overspending. I'm in year 2 of my MBA, so the heaviest stuff I do is some intense Excel modeling. I also do a fair bit of photo editing. I'm also fed up with my computer's inability to run Windows. The points you raise are fair. What if I keep my current one functioning as a desktop and go Macbook Air? |

So I decided to look for a specialist in another country until I met Dr. Tomas Brosto who started treating me. I am confident now that my problem will be completely solved and I will be able to take off my underware again. I already had the first surgery and I feel great. But unfortunately I will have to stay in Argentina for the next three months until the expansors will be replaced for the permanent implants.

I am Aldo and I live near Glasgow. I have been keeping tropicals on and off for around 20 years with cory's and apisto's always being my favourite fish. Finding myself recently with a bit more time at home than usual, I have started up 3 new tanks and now have 4 on the go with a view to trying to breed some corydoras. This site has got loads of info that will be a great help along the way.
At the moment I am keeping sterbai, melanotaenia, rabauti and axelrodi.
I only have 2 axelrodi and have been looking for a few more for a while now, does anyone know anywhere that they may be available?

FLASH: Jamey Wright signed to minor league deal
Today the Rangers inked 32 year old vet Jamey Wright to a minor league deal and gave him an invite to spring training. He�s been around the block a time or two, spending 11 seasons in baseball with the Rockies, Brewers, Cards, Royals, and spent last season with the San Francisco Giants where he went 6-10 with an 5.19 ERA. He�s already had one swim through the Rangers organization: Wright spent May of 2003 with the Oklahoma Redhawks where he made seven starts before being released.
Wright will be brought aboard to possibly compete with the likes of Kameron Loe, Ed Volquez, Josh Rupe and others for a spot in the rotation and also give the Rangers another warm body should the starting rotation run into injury problems this season. He�s a big groundball pitcher, which I�m sure played a large role in the Rangers taking a flyer on the guy.

College students across the country who are moving back into their dorms are currently divided into two groups; those who love their living situation, and those who hate their living situation. The latter of those two most likely has issues with a crappy roommate who's touching their stuff, interrupting quality time with a female guests, or hogging the remote. Luckily, the Russian Arch Group Architectural Bureau has developed a SleepBox which, if any college has the innovation to proceed with, could alter dorm life forever.
Originally designed for train stations, hostels, airports and offices, the Sleep Box is a 2 m x 1.40m x 2.30m personal living space that features up to 3 self-changing beds, Wi-Fi, LCD Television, ventilation, electric outlets, and storage space.
How could this not work in a dorm room ? Slap two of these in one room and you eliminate 95% of all roommate squabbles. Hell, there would still be space for a couch, recliner, and community television to have the best of both worlds. (Editor's Note: And you could finally f*ck in peace.)

Falcons host Army in two-game hockey series
Jan. 14, 2003 Complete Release and Stats in PDF Format This Week: Air Force (8-13-1 overall and 2-7-1 CHA) hosts a two-game non-conference series vs. service academy rival Army (6-11 overall and 6-9 in the MAAC), Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 18-19, at the Cadet Ice Arena. Faceoff is at 7:05 p.m. each night. Radio/Television: Both games will be broadcast live in Colorado Springs on KBZC AM 1300. The pregame show begins 20 minutes prior to faceoff. Jay Ritchie, in his sixth season of Air Force hockey, will do the play-by-play. Jerry Butenhoff will handle the color commentary. No television. Follow the Falcons Anywhere: Both games can be heard anywhere in the United States via the telephone. Falcon hockey radio broadcasts can be heard on TeamLine by dialing 1-800-846-4700. The team access code is 0671. This service is free of charge to listeners thanks to the Air Force Academy athletic department. Hockey games can also be listened to on the internet at www.AirForceSports.com. Go to the hockey page and click on Listen to the Falcons on the right side of the screen. The broadcast schedule for the remainder of the season is on page eight of this release. Scouting the Opponents: Army (West Point, N.Y.) is 6-11 overall this season and 6-9 in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC). The Black Knights are tied for fifth in the MAAC. Last week, Army was swept by Bentley, 4-3 and 5-1. Sophomore forwards Chris Casey and Chad Mayfield lead the team with 14 points. Freshman goaltender Brad Roberts has played all but 17 minutes in the net this season and has a 3.05 goals-against average and a .903 saves percentage. Rob Riley, in his 17th season at Army, has a school record of 233-265-30. Series Records: Air Force and Army have played 32 times and the Falcons hold a 20-10-2 lead in the series that began in 1976. The teams played in 1976 and 1977 and then did not play until 1989. Since then, the two teams have played every year. Under Frank Serratore, the Falcons are 9-1-1 in the last five years. Serratore won his first four games before a 3-3 overtime tie at the Air Force in 1999. Army's only win in the last five years came at the Cadet Ice Arena in 2001 (5-2). Common Opponents: Air Force and Army have played three common opponents, all from the MAAC. Air Force is 4-2 vs. Bentley, Fairfield and Holy Cross while Army is 1-4 vs. those teams. Air Force swept Bentley at home and split with Holy Cross and Fairfield on the road. Army lost three to Bentley and one to Holy Cross. Army defeated Fairfield, 3-1, on the road. Last Season vs. Army: Air Force completed its third consecutive sweep at Army, defeating the Black Knights, 4-2 and 5-4. In the first game, Army took a 2-0 lead in the first period on goals by Tim Murphy and Nathan Mayfield. The lead held until late in the second period when Andy Berg scored a power-play goal with 22 seconds left. Air Force scored three in the third period. Defenseman Joe Locallo tied the game at 7:58 and then Andy Berg scored the game-winner at 11:01. Locallo scored again at 14:30 and had three points in the game. In the second game, Air Force scored three in the first and took a 4-0 lead midway through the second period. Army came back to tie the score in the third period. Brian Reaney's power-play goal with 56 seconds remaining was the game-winner. Berg scored two goals for the Falcons in the first period. Reaney also had two goals in the game while Derek Olson had one. Scott Zwiers had four assists in the game and six in the series. National Leaders: Andy Berg leads the nation with 12 power-play goals this season. He scored one against Niagara Saturday to break the tie with Tom Preissing from Colorado College. Berg is also tied for third in the nation with 18 goals and is tied for 13th in the nation with 31 points. Mike Polidor is sixth in the nation with 1,184 minutes played. Power Play Among Nation's Best: Air Force ranks eighth in the nation in power-play percentage, scoring on 24.8 percent of its chances. The Falcons have scored a power-play goal in four straight games and in seven of the last eight. This season, Air Force has scored on the power play in 16 of the 22 games. The power play generates 41 percent of the team's offense (29 of the 68 goals this season), the highest percentage among team's ranked in the top 10. The other nine teams that rank in the top 10 in the nation in power play, average 34 percent of their goals on the power play. Colorado College leads the nation with power-play percentage of 35.0.

As gas prices are climbing higher each day, a scooter seems like a great way to travel. Honda scooters are perfect if you're looking for a durable, reliable and efficient scooter. Models like the Honda Silver Wing, Reflex, Helix and Elite 80 are all fuel efficient and relatively affordable, as these scooters cost between $5000 - $8000. These scooters are sleek, good looking and sporty and would be perfect to commute to work with or take shorter trips with. Most of these scooters are highway friendly, so you can drive these scooters on country roads as well as bigger roads. These scooters also provide comfort and plenty of room, so you'll be comfortable and you'll save gas. So if you're looking for a scooter, then Honda is certainly worth checking out.
Honda Silver Wing Scooter"Sleek, stylish and sporting freeway-friendly, motorcycle-spec performance, the Silver Wing is the über-scooter, hands-down. From its beefy, 582cc liquid-cooled parallel twin and exclusive Honda V-matic transmission to the plush, two-up seating and spacious on-board storage, the Silver Wing is truly in a class of its own."
Honda Reflex Scooter"From city streets to country roads to long stretches of highway, the Reflex is one scooter that's built for any number of rides. Its smooth 249cc engine, automatic transmission and comfortable seating for two deliver the goods to get you going, wherever the day takes you."
Honda Helix Scooter"Let's see... you get comfort, loads of performance, seating for two, and a built-in trunk with plenty of room for all that stuff you're sure to be toting. With all these features, it's pretty easy to see why this 244cc, liquid-cooled four-stroke scooter has been a popular favorite for both the urban and suburban set for years."
Honda Elite 80 Scooter"With traffic choking up the streets and higher prices at the gas pump, it's never made more sense to find a smarter way to get around town. Enter the pure genius of the Elite 80. With its gas-sipping, 80cc four-stroke engine and fully automatic transmission, it's as hassle-free as it is fuel-efficient—and its user-friendly controls and comfortable seating make you feel right at home right away. Think about it. Bet you feel smarter already."

Feb 5, 2013A reasonably captivating casual puzzle premise squandered by poor pacing and monotonous level design.
Feb 22, 2013Overall, Happy Sheep is a solid puzzle game, but it has some issues. The sound in the game is less than stellar, and the difficulty ramps up extremely quickly. Those looking for a casual, relaxing puzzle game should stay away. Players looking for a game that will challenge (and possibly frustrate them) will love Happy Sheep.

Great Service! Mark Doi
Dreamweaver is an excellent resource and invaluable partner. We enjoy pampering Lisa and Jessica whenever we get the chance, which isn't often because they are always working so hard! Heidi Lamar
What can I say? I'm sure we were a challenge, but you handled it and with a good sense of humor at that. We had a wonderful time and an unforgettable experience. The accommodations were fantastic, the sites were beautiful, the limo was fun (whew, that Mario had his hands full with us-great job, Mario). Everything flowed smoothly and without a hitch. Oh, yeah-GO GATORS! Thanks again,Julia Hite – Florida
What a great job you did, seamlessly connecting all of us with the assundry of arrivals, events, and departings ... and how thoughtful of you to arrange for our team to win as well.I will be in touch for we are always on the go with a myriad of arrangements to make and you do that so well. Thanks again,Dr Jeff
I would tell anyone, and already have, planning a trip to use your services. I thought you did a wonderful job, keeping track of and accommodating all of our parties many and varied requests. Every service you supplied was first rate, and just what we were looking for. I will definitely use Dreamweaver Concierge any time I'm in the area. Thank you, Carolyn Woods - Florida
I am a close friend with Andy McCain (Sen. John's son) he is a high up with Budweiser there ... and I will be passing your name on to him as you did a great job for us. You can count us in as life time clients. When you answered your phone at 11:30 pm, ON A WEEKEND, and was able to assist in correcting another concierge services mistake, whom was closed at this time, you are our hero! Thanks again, Doc W – Scottsdale AZ
Your service is my life saver. You are always willing and more than able to meet every need that we have. You have saved me many times with your quick response to our daily tasks we throw at you, and you never bat an eye. I am amazed at your willingness to go above and beyond and keep coming back for more. I would highly recommend you and Dreamweaver Concierge to anyone that needs help with any task they just don't have time for. Your house sitting and pet sitting while we were on vacation was such a god-send. We enjoyed every minute of the vacation you planned without having to worry about the home front. When we returned you had our whole house in order and the fridge stocked as requested. I need to go on vacation more often! You will continue to have our business as long as you put up with us. Thank you so much for your wonderful services and ingenious ideas on how to enjoy life. You are my answer to stress relief. Oh my husband and kids think you are amazing for making me happy! Keep up the excellent work! D.W., Arizona
With only a phone call you were able to help me make my ten year old great grandson's wish of visiting the Grand Canyon a reality within minutes. As I explained I'm 86 years old and not capable of driving the distance from Salome, AZ to the Grand Canyon. You managed to get us booked on a tour bus that left on the day we needed and times we needed. We had such a wonderful time and it will be something we both remember for the rest of our lives. You are an angel! Tenney Lupus-Johnson Salome, AZ
Our pets are part of our family, sometimes even more important than the people since they rely on us so much for their care. When we go out of town it is always a stressful decision who we will have take care of them for us. We are thrilled that we made the decision to use your pet sitting service. We knew that we had nothing to worry about while we were gone, which made it easier to relax and enjoy our trip. We will definitely be using your services again in the future and will recommend you to anyone we hear of that needs assistance. Thanks again |

I tried to follow a few of the articles back to the full paper, but was unsuccessful. Sometimes the abstract was available free online, but not the full paper--at least in the two I pursued. I am always looking for a definition of "a cup" or "a serving" and the brew strength. As we've discussed, coffee strength varies considerably, and caffeine content varies enormously among coffees.
I'd like researchers to be specific about strength (grams per liter) and caffeine content (if that's presumed to be the important constituent for the study) and serving size.
Another source for peer-reviewed articles on coffee and health is Cosic.org which is funded by a small number of European coffee roasters.
It's mostly happy news. Read carefully, but most of us can enjoy another cup.
