Milan chief executive Adriano Galliani has insisted that his club has received no transfer offers from Arsenal for striker Mario Balotelli, Sky Sports has reported.
Rumours on Sunday had suggested that the two clubs had agreed on a fee of £15.8m, with Balotelli having been linked with a move to the North London club throughout the summer. Arsenal have already signed Barcelona star Alexis Sanchez, but they are still said to retain an interest in the Italian.
Balotelli is reportedly looking to move on after a frustrating first full season with Milan, where the club struggled to a mid-table finish and failed to qualify for European football as a result. Despite Arsenal's interest, Galliani is adamant that no formal bids have been made. "We have not received any offer (for Balotelli) and at this time, there is nothing from Arsenal," he said.
The 23-year-old former Manchester City star is still on holiday after representing his country during their disappointing World Cup campaign. He is expected to link up with his teammates in the coming days to take part in Milan's pre-season tour of the United States.

- 225g (8oz) shortcrust pastry
- 900g (2 lb) cooking apples, such as Bramleys, peeled, cored and sliced
- 1 cinnamon stick, halved
- juice of 1 lemon
- 115-140g (4-5oz) caster sugar
- 225g (8oz) blackberries, thawed if frozen
- 50g (1 3/4 oz) toasted flaked almonds
- for the meringue
- 2 large egg whites
- 115g (4oz) caster sugar
serves 6. Preheat the oven to 200C (gas mark 6, 400F). Roll out the pastry and use to line a 20 cm fluted loose-bottomed flan tin. Line with foil or greaseproof paper and fill with baking beans, then bake blind for about 15 minutes. Remove the beans and paper and return to the oven for about 5-10 minutes until the pastry has dried out. Lower the temperature to 160C (gas mark 3, 325F). In a pan, gently heat the apples, cinnamon, lemon juice and sugar (to taste) with two to three tablespoons of cold water for 10-15 minutes, until the apples are soft and pulpy. Remove the cinnamon, then fold in the blackberries and pile the mixture into the pastry case. Make the meringue: in a clean grease-free bowl, whisk the egg whites until white and foamy. Whisk in 50g (1 3/4 oz) of the sugar until the mixture stiffens and becomes glossy, then fold in the remaining sugar. Spoon the meringue over the apple and blackberry filling. Using a palette knife, spread the meringue out evenly, pulling into peaks. Scatter the almonds on top and bake for 25-30 minutes until the meringue is a crisp, pale golden brown on top, but still soft inside.

How many of you have changed their own tyres?
Just wondering how many of you guys actually change your own tyres or have had to repair a puncture off-road? That's probably the only issue that worries me when I go exploring off-road. I carry a can of tyre sealant just in case but without the right repair gear, an unfortunate puncture would really prove to be a real bummer? Any suggestions with puncture repair options and also with tackling the removal of a real rear puncture with just a side stand to hold the bike up?
I have, and I'm not hardcore. It's worth doing at least once each wheel in your garage, plus once again per wheel away from home--just to know what it takes. After that, I tend to hire it out for convenience, though I always carry tubes and kit with me (that means tire irons, patches, axle wrenches, a bit of soap and some talc, at least one pump (but usually two ever since I had one electric and one manual pump fail on me at different times). I use a center stand for convenience, but a well-chosen stick or other prop works just as well, sometimes better.
Cost to have someone else change out a tire or fix a flat has ranged from US$40 in the States to US$1 in various Central and South American countries, to absolutely free when buying a tire in Peru. YMMV.
(from moto-friendly Dakar Motors in Buenos Aires, where I've run into folks I last saw weeks and months ago)
only two tyres out of may 14 tyres I did let the shop change, but only because I wanted new ones right away... every other tyre was changed by my self with ease.
just a few golden rules to prevent a sudden puncture !
1) use Heavy-Duty tubes
2) fit the tubs with Talcum or baby powder (that's Talcum in little bottles like a salt shaker) keeps the tube nice and flexible.
3) fill the tube with "slime" or "Ultraseal" tyre gump... like slime but may better as some guys suggest.
4) leave the retaining nut of the valve stomp tighten against the cap and not against the rim... preventing the stomp from getting ripped out of the tube if riding with low pressure, gives the tube some space to move around...
5) get your self a good pair of tyre leaver and get your Hands dirty... it's not that bad at all...
I always do all my tyre fitting, changing, repairs myself. It's not really hard work.
This is one of the better of the 20,000 vids on youtube
YouTube - tyre change
Although he didn't have to deal with a rear flat, I recall him saying he has done it - it's just a bit more fiddly with more things in the way than just front forks.
Cheers guys.
Looks like it's time to get a bit of practise in.
You didn't say what sort of tire or bike you are riding. Tube vs. Tubeless are a bit different. Also, big bikes different than little ones.
Obviously, tubes are tougher to deal with as the tube has to come out, wheel off. Tubeless you just plug the tire, pump up and be on your way. I am in the process of making my rear tube type wheel tubeless, using a Marine sealer and tubeless type valve stem. Will report on how this works ... or doesn't work. In any case, I will be carrying spare tubes (at least two)
Mickey's TIPS:
1. Front Tube
A front 21" tube can work in the rear in a pinch. Use plenty of baby powder on installation. A front 21" tube is smaller, lighter and easier to pack. This is why so many dirt bike riders use this technique. I have ridden THOUSANDS of miles with a 21" tube in my 17" tire. No problemo. Of course, change to proper size when you can. No, you can't use a 17" or 18" Tube up front on the 21" tire!
2. Slime or Ultra Seal is great in slowing sudden air loss but it is very tricky or nigh on impossible to Patch a tube filled with Slime. Patches will not stick, even with just a hint of Slime anywhere on the surface or inside the tube near the patch. Best to just replace the tube.
But SLIME has served me well in places where you have cactus thorns and such. Many times you get no flat at all, just little green dots! Slime may not prevent big nails from flatting your tire but it DOES often times work for small screws, nails, staples and thorns. Well worth it IMHO.
3. Tire Irons: I bring 3 nice ones with nice rounded tips like the Ty Davis type iron.
4. Pump?? : I prefer a bicycle hand pump but others use electric pump or CO2 cannisters. NOTE: bicycle pumps wear out just sitting there. Junk. So replace yours every year or so. They DO NOT last. Mine is strapped onto bike so gets rattled a lot.
5. Breaking the Bead. This has the potential to be a tough job. The front tire is typically easy to break the bead on. By hand? This I'd like to see. :innocent:
The rear can be tough to do. I like to use two long levers inserted about 10 inches apart, then "Cross" them, then force them down. When down, squirt liquid soap down into bead area. Move round to new area, repeat. Hopefully the bead will break at some point. Sometimes a friend standing on the tire edge can help, or stomping (carefully) on the tire edge can aid in breaking the bead. Some tires and wheel combos can be very tough to break down. Others a snap. Say a little prayer.
NOTE: Amateur warning! :stormy: FIRST: Always Always Always remove valve core from valve stem before you do anything!!! You need a little tool for this! (I carry two) Bead will not break until valve core is OUT. I have seen some very comical roadside antics caused by this amateurs' mistake. :rofl: DO NOT forget this part! And be sure to take care to stow the delicate valve core some place safe and grit free. (and carry a couple spare cores)
6. Babies Bum
As suggested, baby powder is cheap and easy to carry and will prevent tube from folding, rubbing and will help bead to set completely upon re-inflation and is generally a good thing to use before re-installation of new tube.
7. Seating Bead Fully Once Re-mounted
It is quite normal in some instances that bead will not seat 100% 360 degrees around wheel. Use liquid soap to aid in seating when mounting tire back on. Use LOTS of air pressure.
It is hard to seat the bead with a hand pump, even going to up 60 PSI it may not "Pop" for you. Best to find a compressor later. Then DEFLATE tire, add soapy solution down into bead area, then pump up with compressor as high as 100 PSI in needed. Bead should set with a "Pop". Lower pressure to proper PSI.
In the meantime, after a road side repair, if bead is not fully set, just ride on. No worries. It will hump hump hump on down the road but won't hurt anything, just irritating. In dirt you may not even notice this. On tarmac you will. Ignore, but re-seat bead once you find a proper compressor.
8. Replace, Don't patch.
On the road I never patch a tube unless i have to. Just replace the tube with your spare and pack away your punctured tube. Patch it later or take it to a tire shop and let them do it. Or, if destroyed, toss it out. I like to do mine at camp or motel with a cold beverage! Doing trail side/road side patches are a drag, especially in high wind, high heat or in the dark.
Ride Flat Free!
Switched the outfit from the M&S's to the summer tyres yesterday. No great shakes once you've done it a couple of times. To add a few pointers to the above:
Find tyres that work well for you. My front Mitas bead can be broken by hand but I've had Pirelli's on the MZ and my dads Guzzi that only came off with the hacksaw. I've run tubeless marked tyres with tubes that were easier on and off that some tube types although generaly TT is best. Another example of an industry with standards that then does what the heck it fancies at the time.
Unless you are riding a 125 two up, add a G-clamp to your kit. You can use it as a bead breaker and to hold a tyre in the rim well. Three levers are easier than two and you don't need twelve footers.
Once you've had a tyre off, lube the new one as it goes on. No tyre shop ever does this, it's good for their business that you need a press to do a job that a 4-inch lever should achieve. Tyre lube is best followed by grated up hand soap in water. At a push WD-40, lithium grease or washing up liquid all work they just might give issues (corrosion etc.) later.
Don't forget the rim protectors, they aren't just for the shiney chrome brigade, a badly placed lever will dent a rim.
Check the rim tape and feel inside the tyre for additional nails. I've seen plenty of high speed tube changes ruined when matey had another flat three miles down the road due to the second nail he didn't look for :oops2:
"High pressure" for bead seating means 50 PSI, not 150. If it hasn't seated at 50 you need grease, a reposition on the rim and maybe a different tyre. Go too high and you'll start to wreck the tube before you've turned a wheel. There are pictures on every sidecar website of Goldwings that have had car tyres fitted on the standard rim, had the bead seated at massive pressure and subsequently exploded.
Dump the foam, it doesn't work. Slime and Ultraseal work up to their limits but are messy when they finally fail.
The 21-inch tube thing is a gimmic used by racers. The same lunatics save less than the weight of my breakfast by drilling holes all over the place and carrying various adjustable spanners and 70-quid aluminium widgits for undoing/rounding off the nuts. It's fine if the worse that can happen is that you loose a position in the championship, but a third puncture in a day due to overloading the wrong tube up some trail in Kazakhstan can loose you days or weeks if you shred the tyre. Do the job right to start with and know it's good for thousands of miles IMHO.
Fit a flap to the front mudguard. A lot of rear punctures are caused by detritus lined up by the front. The "fashion" mudguards on the bikes do nothing. Extent the mudguard with a bit of cut up oil bottle, conveyor rubber or plastic fenda-thingy and you save hassle.
Get some baby wipes, tyres are always filthy and you don't want that inside your gloves.
Warn your wife/Girlfriend about why you are going out and buying baby powder, hand wipes and tubes of lubricant, it saves time :blushing:
Don't let any of this stuff put you off. Practice and you'll be self sufficient Only trouble then is you'll aquire a stack of part used tyres as you start to experiment with different types. I'm growing potatos in mine :eek3:
WD duck oil works a treat ,
tempreture helps no end , getting them on and off
you shouldn,t have a problem , i have to stick my tyres in the airing cupboard to soften them up here .
I,d always use the wright size tube .
Even if you never change your tyres yourself, home or away, you should at least know how to....
You just never know.
Being stranded in the wilderness for the sake of not knowing how to fix a flat is just crazy....
I said use a 21" tube "In a Pinch". This means if you are out of rear tubes, use a 21". I carry both sizes. BTW, Racers don't stop to change a tire, they just ride it flat round to the pitts, then the crew just fit a new wheel. Running a 21" tube will never cause damage to a tire, it might go flat, little else would happen unless you rider is dump enough to ride the flat across Mongolia.
On a rare occasion a 21" may fold or crease funny and get flatted, but I've not seen this happen .... in about 30 years. A motorcycle is not an outfit. On an outfit you can haul spare wheels/tires, jacks, Beer and G clamps. Not so much on a bike! :thumbdown:
I'd use a front tube in the rear at a push, but we are talking heavily loaded overland bikes here. I'd want the wrong tube out ASAP which means more mess and hassle switching back when you find the right tube (I guess racers do that after the race?). Two correct sized tubes versus a single 21-inch is a lot of risk for little saving IMHO. No idea how Desert Racing would relate to doing thousands of miles a week at 40 mph with a ton of gear on the bike, don't they have helicopters and 4x4's along for when they run out of their sponsors brand of sun block?
I found silicone grease worked very well in helping get the tyre on. Also smeared it all over the inner tube so it could wriggle about inside the tyre. NO idea if it helps or not, but so far so good...
For a tube, I'll stick with talc in the tyre and on the tube with a little bit of tyre-soap or WD40 to help seat the beads.
I don't think Mickey was saying carrying only 21" tubes as a suggestion for overlanders. Though I have read somewhere on here in the past someone propose to do just that and I agree it's daft. But it's a good tip for days out trail riding. And it's worth baring in mind for if you ever are in the middle of Mongolia or somewhere and lose or wreck all your rear tubes but still have a good 21"er. Same for using 18" or 19" in a 17". And some people report successfully using smaller tubes when it's all there's been available, eg 18" on a 19" wheel.
I don't carry anything to lube the tyre/rim for puncture repairs on the road. I can't be doing with the hassle of carrying yet another plastic container to break or burst and make a mess of my other gear. If I feel like using a lubricant when changing tyres at home, I generally use window cleaner spray as it's quick and not messy.
I've recently heard the theory that if you use too much washing up liquid or similar as a lube for refitting tyres after punctures, it increases the chance of patches not sticking effectively. Makes sense to me.
For getting the bead to seat evenly on tubed tyres, bouncing the tyre hard on the ground works though can be doing it for up to 10 or 15 minutes sometimes! If you don't bounce it straight the wheel will go flying to one side, so don't bounce it so it can bounce either towards or away from you - If you bounce it hard enough it'll hit you in the face and it f-ing hurts!
Rimlocks. As well as letting you run ultra low tyre pressures, rimlocks also reduce the chances of damaging the tyre if you choose to ride on a flat. I guess they also make the bike more rideable as the tyre can't move quite as much.

I think the whole obsession about the capes started when models at Burberry fashion show wore them with imprinted initials. And of course when Olivia Palermo styled it up with those gorgeous Aquazzura boots. Of course I bought one for myself as well, this beauty is from Zara and this gorgeous boots are AlexanderWangxH&M.

Nokia & Microsoft Get In Bed, Qt & MeeGo Take A Back
Published on 11 February 2011 09:27 AM EST

As many were expecting, Nokia and Microsoft this morning announced a strategic partnership under which Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 will become Nokia's primary smart-phone platform. With this move, it really darkens the outlook for the MeeGo Linux platform. Additionally, on Nokia's Windows Phone 7 implementation, their Qt tool-kit will not be available.
Nokia will still toy around with MeeGo, but they won't be deploying product lines with MeeGo. It looks like there may be one MeeGo-based product being released from Nokia this year. In this large strategic partnership, many Nokia employees will also be losing their jobs as part of a corporate re-organization. Nokia obviously has employed many Linux / open-source developers as part of their work on MeeGo, formerly Maemo, Qt, X, and other components. Some of these known developers will be on their way out the door at Nokia. One of my Linux Nokia sources says many of these developers will be affected and "I doubt that I will be doing Nokia stuff after June", etc.
While Intel puts out their MeeGo spin for netbooks and other Atom-powered devices, Nokia was the other big name associated with MeeGo. The Symbian platform is also effectively killed off in this move.

Have a look at the HYIP Informational Survey #364. See a bit of a change in the Top Choice section and one program added to the HYIPNews listing. The Problem section, which includes both new programs and those working for a while are added to the Problems section. The Events section is not very numerous. As for Emoney there are two updates from SolidTrustPay and Payza. Stable situation is observed at the Hyip Quotes section today. Follow the link to see more information in the HYIP Informational Survey #364....
We shall start the news digest today with the update from Dragam HYIP. The admin of Dragam has decided to take effective measures to increase the website popularity. He started with the conservative change, which is increasing the bonus on the referral program. Starting since Wednesday the active members started to receive 10% from the profit earned by the downlines, instead of 3% earned before. The changes are applied to all the plans apart from the fifth one (Invest 5).
Albion Union has been under scheduled maintenance due to the update of server equipment during the period from 14:00 (UTC+4) to 15:00 (UTC+4) yesterday. Within the time of the maintenance, the website of Albion Union was hard to access. Currently everything is back to normal. The maintenance is over and updates have been completed properly.
The Income Stable HYIP has been experiencing troubles with the script, which caused some deposit troubles. The trouble was fixed successfully. Everyone is recommended to check the deposit now. In case anything is still wrong, one should contact the support as soon as possible. As promised in the previous newsletter the bonus to investors who made deposits has been added. At the same time during the process of checking the scripts some cheaters have been detected. Let me remind you, according to the terms of the project only one account per person is allowed.
Fi Finances has celebrated 80 days online. Some serious achievements have been made during this time. Alexa global rank reached 68,951, More than 11367 investors registered, More than $8,2 millions invested, with $300,000.00's of dollars investing in daily, More than $6,4 millions withdraw back to investors....
Please have a look at the latest news from several HYIPs, working online. For a start we shall give some update on EastOil HYIP. The program has been a member of the Top Choice section, currently taking the ninth place in the HYIPNews listing after being just 62 days online. Perfect result, indeed! Speaking about the performance, it needs to be mentioned additionally to the perfect performance lately, the program has been professionally reviewed at HYIPNews. There are two types of investment plans offering both daily payouts and plans where profit is paid upon the expiry.
As for the news, the admin states the fact, the project is going well. There are lots of promises and solid statements concerning the future of the program. At the same time, it needs to be mentioned, some real results are still present. Last week the first investment cycle on the 55-day investment (WTF Oil Plan) has been completed. All profits and principals have been paid out with no delays. At least on our side we don't have any complaints about that. Good result and quite positive future expectations the program is not lack of money to make timely payouts.
As it turned out, as the admin claims, lots of clients previously registered with EastOil though haven't managed to deposit yet have sent multiple requests to keep them informed when the plan is going to be 100% probed. They actually needed some proofs, now they got them and right away it is very much likely upon completing the first investment cycle on the most profitable investment plan successfully, the number of deposits will rise significantly. The minimum is not that large. It only takes $25 to join the plan. Anyone considering investing to EastOil, go for it!...
Another HYIP Informational Survey is published at your attention. This time back again we have a very stable performance of TOP Choice programs and the one, which is sticky listed. Unfortunately today there are no new programs added to HYIPNews listing. As for Closures and Problems, we are forced to declare five of previously listed HYIPs are now blacklisted at HYIPNews.
The Events section includes latest information about the HYIPs online. There are no latest updates in the Emoney section. As for Hyip Quotes, the situation here is rather interesting. Just like the programs in the TOP Choice section, all five most quoted HYIPs listed at HYIPNews remain the same. Moreover, three programs share the third place with the same quotation index. Follow the link to get more information in the HYIP Informational Survey #363....
The admin of Future Stocks is back in action. Within the short term the project has achieved great results. As the admin claims, there are currently 3K members, who deposited nearly $400K and withdrew around $200K. Anyone interested is welcome to the chat room enabled, to join the contest for the best video review and take advantage of the regional representative program. The payment proof page enabled on the website of the project is supposed to solve any doubts that may appear when thinking of joining the project.
During the period from November 14 to November 16, 2014 the Silveks website has been on technical maintenance with the purpose to improve the services provided to the customers and make them more secured. Within the entire time when the maintenance was in action, some troubles and disruption of the website could be possible.
The CryptoFarm program is involved in Bitcoin mining. More likely with the high enough minimum deposit of (0.25 BTC = about $100) and very decent interest rates (2% to 2.4% for 60 days with no principal return) the program is aimed for the long run. Even though earlier the admin claimed Bitcoin mining is the primary industry this HYIP is involved in, the latest newsletter informs about adding an alternative incomer source. CryptoFarm expands into Altcoin mining. Mining altcoins, as it's been reported, can be be considered as the innovative technology which may increase the income of the program due to volatile prices sometimes less than ideal algorithms.
The Raisean HYIP has reported the successful mitigation of a multi-factor DDoS attack, during the previous week. After the attack was successfully mitigated, the website of the project is accessible online from all over the world. The security system of the Raisean HYIP after the attack has become more secured, which minimizes the risk for the website to get down duw to DDoS again.
LaxoTrade offers another investment plan for the members because of the ongoing holidays. The special 41% is offered according to the terms of the new plan, paid at the expiry of 15 days. The new plan will not work on the permanent basis. On November 24, 2014 it expires. Looks like the attempt to increase the deposit inflow to the project, which is very often not a good sign at all....

"If you build it, he will come." The most popular line in The Field of Dreams. Kevin Costner's character, an Iowa Farmer, hears whispers coming from the cornfield and visualizes a baseball field. I visited that site in Dyersville, Iowa in 2006.
Are you living your childhood dream? Where ever you are in life you can live your childhood dream.
I've pursued my childhood dream for as long as I can remember. I crave to be a part of baseball at each phase of life. I've been a player, fan, coach, and now an umpire. My dream continues to evolve and I find ways to be a part of the game. Today, I imagine working at the front office of a club. Leveraging my military and human resources skills while satisfying my craving to be on the field with great players, officiating the game. Through the use of three quotes of tried leaders and a proven example, I intend to inspire your childhood dream no matter what phase of life you're at.
General Patton, Bear Bryant and Ben Franklin helped others fulfill their dreams while pursuing theirs.
General George S. Patton said to accept challenges so you can feel the exhilaration of victory. Your avoiding these challenges and settling for security. Not taking risk and pursuing your passions will bring forth a life not lived.
Bear Bryant reminds you at halftime when your losing that you should focus on winning the 2nd half. Maybe your at a certain phase of life and believe that it's much too late. The games not over until time runs out. I know several people who have made their dreams become real after leaving college, lost employment or after their first career came to an end.
Benjamin Franklin gives warning and a glimpse of what happens after college. You could die at 25 years old and not push up daisies until 75. You may be making choices or choosing a path that isn't sexy. You probably feel as if life is dead and dull. Don't wait 50 years to be buried, find your dream and live.
Daniel Covington, a 30 year veteran, didn't feel like waiting to be buried.
It's never much too late to live your dreams. Daniel is feeling the exhilaration of winning the second half after chasing down his dream. Kerry Hannon mentions Daniel Covington's story in New York Times this past April. He dreamt about being in the circus, volunteering as an usher when it reached town, and wrote reviews for Circus Magazine. Daniel retired from the Navy after 30 years, joining a 130-person traveling circus as the company manager. He uses the Armed Forces skills he acquired; admin, leadership, crisis management, unusual situations, and constant travel, to achieve his childhood dream.
In conclusion, it doesn't matter what phase of life you're at, take up the challenge, feel the exhilaration of victory, bears down on winning the second half and live until you're buried. Remember it's never much too late to charge off and join the circus.
Like the Iowa farmer, you are going to be discourage. People will reject what they don't understand, you may not understand what's driving you. By the end of The Field of Dreams the Iowa farmer gets to play catch with his father one last time before he disappears into the cornfield forever. For 35 years I've been a part of a game I love, I just keep finding ways to love it more and be part of it. It's never much too late to live your dream. You must build them and they will come.

Chris Olsen is a busy man. He stars in his own syndicated KTHV Channel 11 segment, "Today's Home," writes for Arkansas Gardener magazine, and is an active member in several not-for-profit organizations. Olsen, an Oxford University graduate with more than 25 years of experience in landscape architecture, opened Botanica Gardens in 2003. He works as the garden store's master designer, a career that allows him to stay active in the community and share his wealth of plant-centric knowledge with the public. Visitors to his store can discover a plethora of gardening supplies including plants and shrubs, fountains and water features, and statuary. His experienced staff also flaunts their skills in landscape design, lawn maintenance, flower arranging, and inducing rain with the hokey pokey.
A family-owned and state-licensed company, Top Notch Turf and its skilled technicians tend to lawns and shrubs with preventive and maintenance services. Weeds struggle to sprout after pre-emergent treatments, whereas postemergent treatments rid lawns of those that have already arrived. But weeds aren't the only unwanted organisms to fall victim to the technicians' sprays—they also treat shrubs to evict insects and stop disease and can drive away unwanted pests, such as fleas, ticks, and spiders, as well as tick fleas, spider ticks, and flea spiders. Regardless of the service, the team rushes to clients in its custom pickup truck, painted to look like it's covered in grass.
What began as primarily a retail store and growing facility over 35 years ago has developed into a full service garden center, complete with landscape design/build services, irrigation installation and repair, lawn and landscape maintenance,and gift shop.
Flowers can be delivered within a 20-mile radius of Little Rock. The delivery charge ($8.50) is not included in the value of the Groupon.
Family-owned and operated Frances Flower Shop sells flowers and gifts for all occasions from its cozy and non-presidential white house. Its large inventory of fresh flowers and plants can be arranged to suit most any gift-giving need—thank a friend for years of loyalty and good times, or just make your parole officer smile. The Belafonte-bounty of the Calypso ($45.95) boasts blooms in tropical pinks, oranges, blues, and yellows, while fast-to-act floral fanatics can opt for the high-flying Halloween horticulture of the Bat's Incredible ($34.95). Specialized bouquets honoring anniversaries, births, and birthdays are available, as is a wide array of gourmet fruit and gift baskets, greeting cards, and candle.
A regular contributor to NBC's The Today Show, a TV host, and author of the bestselling Garden Home book series, P. Allen Smith cultivates innovative solutions for enhancing home greenery and nurturing leafy pets. Smith's expertise stems from a childhood spent on his family's farm and a lifetime of horticultural study. Through a variety of media, he is able to instill design techniques in viewers, readers, and telepathic communicators to help gardens flourish. Situated on a 500-acre garden retreat, P. Allen's 1904 Arkansas River Valley garden home provides a colorful and interactive set for his programs, as well as a landmark for droves of sightseeing honeybees.

LEC researcher quoted for work on crop contamination
Story supplied by LU Press Office
A Lancaster University ecologist has been quoted widely in the international media this week on the growing crop crisis in Liberia, West Africa.
Pests, which have destroyed entire farms in days, were initially thought to be African Armyworms, but were in fact discovered to be a related species - the caterpillars of the moth Achaea catocaloides. More than 20,000 people in Liberia have so far had to evacuate their homes.
Dr Kenneth Wilson, who is based in the Lancaster Environment Centre, is an expert on Armyworms and, together with colleagues from the UK, Tanzania and Canada, has been developing a biological pesticide to bring Armyworm populations under control, preventing large-scale crop damage.
He said; "Currently the only way to control these outbreaks is by spraying with chemical insecticides, but these are too expensive for most farmers and can damage the environment.
"We are investigating radical new solutions using a naturally occurring virus in armyworms - Armyworm nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV). It is harmless to humans and other wildlife but can quickly contain Armyworm populations."
Dr Wilson's research project, which is jointly funded by the Biotechnology & Biological Sciences Research Council and the Department for International Development is studying the detailed biology of NPV with a plan to harness it as a biological pesticide to prevent the early spread of armyworms and the resulting loss in crops.
It is a collaboration between LancasterUniversity; Natural Resources Institute, Greenwich; Laurentian University, Canada; and Sokoine University of Agriculture, Tanzania.
"We are well on the way to understanding how best to use this new biological pesticide", Dr Wilson said. "The next stage is to secure the funding required to produce large amounts of the NPV for wide-scale use in Africa. We could then be in a position to help countries like Liberia if Armyworm do attack".

Grand Marnier
Brilliant topaz color with amber hues. Pleasant orange notes with hints of candied peel, light aroma of vanilla fragrance from the Cognac. Fragrant orange flavors enhanced by the Cognac with nuances of orange essence and hazelnuts. The finish is lingering and harmonious.
Wine Enthusiast
Grand Marnier-or "GrandMa," as some cocktail geeks gleefully shorthand it-remains one of the classics. Although it's Cognac-based, it's a versatile match for other spirits, too. The liqueur is extremely aromatic, with lots of sweet and bitter orange notes exploding out of the glass. Look for a warm, honeyed flavor and a nice burst of orange peel and spicy cinnamon and ginger on the long finish.Score: 93. February 01, 2012.

Terezin Concentration Camp Day Tour from Prague

Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
Wonderful guide with such knowledge and compassion! We had our daughters with us - one 13 and one 18 - both gained a great deal from the visit.
Excellent guide. Learned a lot.
Very interesting!
The tour guide was excellent. He was very well educated and knew the history of the annihilation of the Jews in Europe.
The van was comfortable.
I highly recommend this tour to any one interested in World War 'll.
Surprising, Out of the ordinary tour of an overlooked piece of history. Our guide was totally involved, interesting, and knew everything about the site, even the early Roman origins. I teach History, and I learned a lot.
A thoroughly interesting tour. Very confronting and totally absorbing. One cannot say "fabulous" as the theme of the tour emits sadness and despair for those who suffered during that dreadful time. But I highly recommend this tour as a reality one and a " it did happen" experience. The tour was complimented by a very passionate and informative guide. Highly recommended
Very interesting, well worth the money. Relatively small group so there was no waiting around for others to tag along, tour guide was very friendly. The Ghetto Museum has some excellent articles to look at, very thought provoking - one of the best museums I've ever been to! Terezin itself is fascinating, would be a shame to visit Prague without understanding some of the history - there are only so many absinth shops you can take!
Excellent! Our tour guides were knowledgeable and engaged when relaying the many difficult details of the atrocities involved in the history of Terezin. It was very moving and difficult, but deeply informative.
The Terezin Concentration Camp tour was very well done. It was very informational and sobering. This tour was at the top of our tours while in Prague. We were on the Danube River Cruise. Thank you for helping us remember!!!!
This was a tour that I had mixed feelings about, but I was really glad that I did it. I gained a much better understanding of the history of the Second World War and found it very educational. Some of it was shocking and after the visit I found myself reflecting on what I had seen and learned. Our guide, Sarah, was very knowledgable and good at her job. She also took good care of us, making sure we knew how to get around on our return to Prague.
The guide was very knowledgeable and we thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Would recommend to anyone who is interested in history of the holocaust
This is a must see. Our tour was excellent. Easily booked and confirmed online. Easy and efficient check in. Guide was knowledgable and easy to understand. Guide on site was similarly excellent. Highly recommend tour and Viator.
This was a very thought provoking tour.Our guides were very well informed and we would highly recommend this tour
A vey moving tour. Mike our guide at the actual camp was fabulous. He was vey sincere and sensitive to the tragedies that happened there. He went through a lot of the history and we learnt a lot. This is an excellent our and recommend it highly .
Very good tour. Great guide.

My youngest daughter sucks her thumb constantly. Should I be worried? How can I get her to stop?
- Craig
Childhood habits like thumb sucking are not usually something to worry about. In fact, many young kids suck their thumbs, probably as a way to cope with stress or anxiety. Thumb sucking can be soothing and comforting, and can make a child feel safe.
Most childhood habits go away on their own — especially if a parent ignores them. But if kids continue to suck their thumbs into the school-age years, it may cause shifts in their teeth and affect the way the mouth grows.
If your daughter doesn't seem to be outgrowing her thumb sucking, try some positive reinforcement. Reward her with an extra bedtime story or other favorite treat when she doesn't suck her thumb. Be generous with the praise, too. It can also help eliminate anything causing her anxiety or stress. And remember, most habits in young kids are just passing phases.

What are the pros? Great Taste, Hardy
What are the cons? Harder to germinate than some
How am I the first person to write a review of this beautiful and tasty little guy? It's not the easiest lettuce to get going. It seems to take about twice as many seeds and twice as much time to get up and running but it's worth it, here's why:
It's beautiful, almost like a green speckled flower
Even in hot conditions like this summer in SoCal (85-100 F) it's done pretty good, no wilting, no burning, no bolting. It's not as attractive to hoop caterpillars as my Sunset and Little Gems for some reason, even though I find them hiding in the Flashy Oak in the morning, but who knows why.
But how is it to eat? I pulled two of mine early, just as they were starting to really build up a head and we really enjoyed them. Because of the heat the leaves were a little tougher at the mid rib than normal lettuce, but the taste was really nice. A little nutty and sweet. I can only imagine that as things cool down they will only get better.

"I found this beautiful home on vrbo and rented it sight unseen. The listing description and photos accurately described and showed the home to a tee! It is clean, new and well decorated for a rental home. The lanai with the swimming pool is definitely an asset. The owner is very helpful and is only ever a phone call away and a full information binder is left in the home. The pool is maintained on a weekly basis and is immaculate. All beaches, restaurants and attractions are within a 15 minute drive in any direction depending on traffic. And they are all amazing! The Cypress Woods golf course is amazing. It's a two minute drive from the house. The course is in excellent condition and the greens are perfectly manicured. The staff are courteous and friendly. It's easy to book tee times. There is also a full gym, pool, tennis courts and activities available with the golf membership."Guest: Yaya Date of Stay: January 2014 Review Submitted: April 14, 2014View listing
"This will be our 7th continuous stay in Sterling Oaks and our 3rd at this address . I hope or feel should convey our complete satisfaction with property . The owner is always accessible and more important always there to increase comfort level . We return and feel like our own home. Our Grandkids do visit ,the in house pool and main jr Olympic pool ( tiki hut food at lunch ) lots of smiles we don't ask for much more. How can we ,being from Northeast .Naples climate Feb and March best unless snow and cold your thing. Bottom line any time of year this address great."Guest: Jack Date of Stay: February 2014 Review Submitted: July 9, 2014View listing
"If this type of condo fits your needs, you can rest assured that you will have pleasant experience. Condo is everything that previous reviewers have noted and the owners will do everything they can to make your stay enjoyable. This a real VRBO - not some rental agency posting their listing on VRBO. We would not hesitate to rent again or recommend this unit to our friends."Guest: John C. Date of Stay: January 2014 Review Submitted: March 15, 2014View listing
"I don't normally write reviews, even when asked unless a place really exceeds expectations. I loved this unit! I've been coming to Heritage Bay for a few years, stayed in several different units. This one, by far has been the best. It's the 3rd unit in from end, which is the best - it has a 2-sided screened lania, which gives you a bigger view. (most are 1-sided) The building design juts out at 3rd unit, giving you more view AND more privacy! My girlfriend enjoyed both dinner and breakfast out on the lanai. Plus the view is spectacular from the 3rd floor. (Also fun to watch the golfers, but with privacy from higher up.) Another bonus about this unit is the furniture. Very tasteful, but more important, VERY comfortable couches and beds. I stayed at another unit a few years ago where the couch was cheap and uncomfortable, which makes for a lousy vacation. Having the smaller, more private pool right at the bottom of the stairs was another real convenience I hadn't expected. Makes it so much easier if you want to go back and forth from condo to pool. Another benefit of the 2-sided lanai is the sunset. Beautiful sunsets right from the lanai. As I said, this is my 3rd year coming to HB. I stayed here for 3 months this year andif I come back to HB again, I would definitely rent this unit again over any of the others I've stayed in. About HBG&CC: There's plenty available online about the facility, so I won't get into any features. But I have to say, the guests at HB are always polite. I've stayed at some Country Clubs where the people were a bit snobby. In 3 years, always enjoyed the people here and have even made good friends here. The golf is fun, challenging, but not crazy narrow... fairways are fairly bombproof and the greens are kept in pristine condition. The streets at HB are wide with wide bike paths and sidewalks which makes it nice for a stroll. I can't speak of the clubhouse restaurant (too many great restaurants in Naples to eat here). But the Chickee Bar by the main pool has great sandwiches (chix salad on croissant and the sliders rock!)"Guest: Dan Date of Stay: January 2014 Review Submitted: April 10, 2014View listing

Book Description:
To the dedicated millions who can't get enough of Heather's unique style and hilarious stories on her hugely popular blog, there's little she doesn't share about her daily life as a recovering Mormon, wife of a charming geek, lover of awful television, and stay-at-home mom to five-year-old Leta, newborn Marlo, and two willful dogs..Now, Heather shares, with biting wit and unrelenting honesty, all the other minor details of pregnancy and motherhood that no one cares to mention—like anxiety, constipation, and postpartum depression. There are lonely days, sleepless nights, and endless screaming. There's the boredom that comes with caring for someone whose primary means of communication is through her bowels. And there's the heart-swelling joy and utterly irresistible and totally redeemable fresh baby smell that makes it all worthwhile..It Sucked and Then I Cried is a brave cautionary tale about crossing over that invisible line to the other side (the parenting side), where everything changes, and it can get pretty unpleasant. But more importantly, it's a celebration of a love so big it threatens to make your heart explode. .

Las Cruces, NM (Sports Network) - Kevin Aronis finished with 11 points as the New Mexico State Aggies downed the Texas-El Paso Miners, 55-51, in a non- conference meeting at the Pan American Center.
Sy Bandja added 10 points for the Aggies (19-9), while Sim Bhullar pulled down nine rebounds, as New Mexico State got back on the winning track after seeing its 12-game winning streak snapped its last time out.
For the Miners (14-12), McKenzie Moore was the sole player in double figures with 10 points. C.J. Cooper chipped in nine points off the bench.
Neither team shot better than 25 percent from the field in the first half. New Mexico State shot a woeful 22.7 percent from the field, but it made 2-of-7 from 3-point range and outscored UTEP from the free-throw line, 5-0, which allowed it to take a 17-14 lead into halftime.

Conducting business in an economy that has no precedent makes fact-based decision making more than a nice-to-have. Furthermore, increased efficiency and productivity will be needed to help lift companies, industries and countries out of the recession. The pressure to improve business process and resource allocation, and the need to make better decisions have moved BI from mainstream to mission critical, which explains why growth is expected to be double that of the software market overall.

AMS 391 • Modern Jewish Fiction
Course Description
The Jewish cultural experience in its long nomadic history displays as much discontinuities as it does a putative constancy. If we apply a Bergsonian appreciation, we shall notice its personality grows ever more complex as it integrates contraries but if we consider Deleuze and Guattari, we can also notice its rhizomic nature, appearing and disappearing, emerging as a minority literature in various major tongues but also creating distinct holistic cultural expressions in its own languages-- or hybridic ones--cognizant that its symbolic esthetic system depends upon an ethical inheritance which substantiates renaissance. This course articulates the emergence of a Jewish literary secular culture emerging from a colonialized Third World condition starting in Eastern Europe in the latter part of the 19th Century and making its way across the globe metamorphosing into a contemporary First World Literature and culture. This course will initiate the student into the play of language politics which determines for the Jews why, in their diasporic condition, they engineered a tri-lingual solution in Eastern Europe using Yiddish, Hebrew and adopting ad hoc a Gentile tongue to proffer the vehicule for their literary and ideological intentions. We shall begin with the emergence of Yiddish literature reading texts of Sholem Aleykhem, Bergelson, Rabon and Bashevis Singer [Nobel Prize Winner] who provide a quality cross section of this murdered culture from its beginning to its demise. By observing the the choices of genre, personage, theme, stylistics, etc. we notice how this new culture reflects common patterns of older renewing written cultures [ Arabic, Chinese, Hindi,etc.] with its own particularities. We shall also read 4 key Hebrew writers, Faierberg, Uri Nisn Gnesn, Agnon [Nobel Prize] and A. B. Yehoshua, the former as restorers of secular literature and the latter as modern voices of contemporary Israeli Jewish literature. By studying the above works comparatively, they sharply reflect the ideological,class and esthetic differences which the linguistic medium and setting imply as well as displaying the passage from the hinterland to the contemporary first world literarys establishments. Jewish literature particularly in the 20th century made significant moves to participate in various Gentile linguistic mediums and created a rich hybridic culture reflecting both Jewish and general humanistic concerns using barrowed literary forms and styles and imagery. We shall read works by Babel [Russia], Kafka [ Czech German], Bruno Schulz [Poland], Roth [Germany], Pyotr Rawicz [France/Ukraine], Abraham Cahan, Saul Bellow, P. Roth, Safran-Foer [ [Jewish-American writing] in order to recognize the accomplishment of this modern Jewish culture to express and elaborate its uniqueness and displays its contemporary Angst. [If there is an insistance in class for a particular author not listed, we can accommodate such a request.] This course provides a panorama and interpretative optic to understand how a modern diasporic literary culture emerged and propelled itself in less than a century, despite a Holocaust, massive migration and emergency nation-building, into a first world literary culture with writers who are today universal household names. Americanists are invited to write final papers on American or Canadian authors.
