Some months back, while roaming Berlin's famous "Kaufhaus des Westens" - an over-glorified shopping mall - my friends and I had a little contest about who could find the most expensive bottle of wine within 2 two minutes. Although I don't remember who won - which means it probably wasn't me - I remember the winning wine costing more than a thousand Euros (which feels like 50 billion $US these days). A price tag like that makes me wonder: How big of a difference does quality in wine really make? Is there a real 985$ difference in taste between the 1000$ wine and a comparable 15$ wine?
Sure, I can taste the difference between a Riesling and a Burgunder, but I've never fooled myself into believing I could discern the quality of a wine with my taste buds alone. Also, I've always been somewhat skeptical about gourmet tasters who convince us they can indeed taste qualitative differences.
So this is where a truly fascinating experiment comes into play that reminded me that "taste" is more than a matter of taste:
The experiment I refer to here was conducted in 2007 by a group of researchers around Hilke Plassmann from the California Institute of Technology. It involved a couple of bottles of Cabernet Sauvignon and the Stanford wine tasting group:
For their experiment, Plassmann and her colleagues told their participants that they would be tasting five different wines in order to test time differences in taste perception for different flavors. In reality, however, the researchers were interested in something else; namely the connection between perceived tastiness and the taster's knowledge of a wine's price.

Modern Warfare 3 Content Collection #1 drops March 20
The first of four content collections for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is set to be released on Xbox Live March 20. Imaginatively titled Content Collection #1, it contains four multiplayer maps: Liberation, Piazza, Overwatch and Black Box along with two special ops missions titled Black Ice and Negotiator. Apparently this is the first time special ops missions have been made available for download. In Black Ice your goal is to blow up a mine while Negotiator takes players to India where they have to mount a hostage rescue mission, no doubt with very little negotiating.
Call of Duty Elite Premium members will receive Elite Content Drops 4-6 which include Black Ice, Black Box and Negotiator on March 13, because they are both premium and elite, which must be wonderful. Content Collection #1 is merely all the Elite Content Drops bundled into one.

Build A Sick Air Jordan Collection Overnight By Buying All Eleven Collezione Packs by Patrick Johnson 9 Comments
sold out on nike.com in 17 min
October 12, 2012 BY John Kim / 11
Tomorrow, the second chapter of the Johnny Kilroy story will have its page turned, as Jordan Brand is set to release the 'Fontay Montana' colorway of the Air Jordan IX. Featuring a mix of White, Blue, and Orange representing the 'Gulls', the 'Fontay' colorway has been considered to be one of the best of the entire half-dozen, simply due to the popular Blue/Orange color-blocking. In light of the recent news of Russell Westbrook joining Jordan Brand, could we see Why Not? rocking these this season? These are set to arrive tomorrow at Jordan Brand retailers, so let us know if these are indeed the best of the bunch and see what's available now on eBay.

Go Gators!
I love these. They remind me of the "Auburn" Trainer SC which next to the Infrared VI is my favorite shoe, I'll be picking up a pair, but unfortunately I probably will have to do it tomorrow at full price, because they probably won't last long enough to go clearance I'm sure. Last clearance pair of Jordans I got were the white/varsity red VI's that I wound up doing a midsole paint change on.
no deal
Easy pass. I'd rather keep my 174.00
sick I must say
@ABoog Idk why people like these shits...I rather get the Bentley Ellis on the 27th...fuck these...only good thing about em is that they Knick colors lol
@ABoog best bet is the mall
@NewbombedTurk do yu know how to restore shoes
@Staxxx Thats what I said, glad Im not a hype beast or I would feel left out...people selling em on ebay for like 250 though smh
@Datboi_Kidd I've seen how to do it, but actually attempting on a pair of my own shoes it scares me to death. I'd hate to trash my "Nike AIR" Vs from 2000 because I did something wrong.

Microgastrinae (Braconidae) is a hyperdiverse and globally ubiquitous subfamily of parasitoid wasps, commonly encountered as pupae or prepupae encased in white silk cocoons on or near the dead or dying bodies of their host caterpillars. All Microgastrinae are obligate endoparasitoids of larval Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), and have a significant long-term physiological interaction with their hosts, in part mediated by a symbiotic relationship with bracoviruses.

- Airlines to Congress: 'Stop looking at us as a cash cow'
- 'Aztec Plane' is USA's newest sports-themed aircraft
Alaska Air adds Orlando to growing San Diego route map
Alaska Airlines will begin non-stop service between San Diego and Orlando on Oct. 11. The carrier will fly five flights a week on the route.
The new destination punctuates a recent push by Alaska Airlines to build up its presence in San Diego.
"We're thrilled to announce our fourth new market in San Diego in just four months," Joe Sprague, Alaska Airlines' vice president of marketing, says in a release.
The other markets Sprague refers to are new intra-California routes to Fresno, Monterey and Santa Rosa that Alaska Air will launch from San Diego next week.
San Diego airport officials lauded the new routes.
"Just after the exciting announcement of three intra-California routes, Alaska Airlines has done it again," Thella Bowens, president and CEO of the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority, says in the release. "Orlando was the largest market without non-stop service to San Diego, and today's news is a welcome bridge between two beloved, sunny cities."

Starring Harry Reid as Thelma and John Boehner as Louise – The Fiscal Cliff – http://abcn.ws/OB2RpC (Blaine)
Patty Murray – "If we can't get a good deal — a balanced deal that calls on the wealthy to pay their fair share — then I will absolutely continue this debate into 2013, rather than lock in a long-term deal this year that throws middle-class families under the bus."
Mitch McConnell – "This is what passes for governance among Democrats these days: Put the American people up against a wall, pick their pockets and hope that in the midst of the scuffle, they blame it — and the recession that would follow — on Republicans." (Miller and Percha)
Why Worry About Mitt Romney's Taxes When You can Worry About Taxmageddon? – Matt Negrin writes: What's clear is that the Obama campaign is directing the media narrative, and it's more about taxes and Bain than the economy. Reporters are now writing about Romney's previous push for opening up tax books — in 2002 his campaign pressed a familiar-sounding "what is she hiding?" line against his opponent, whose husband had connections to Enron.
Even Romney's campaign, which would like the news to be focused on the unemployment rate, has spent a good deal of time responding to the attacks, including a compilation of authoritative neutral voices that have been skeptical of the Obama camp's suggestion that Romney committed a felony.
Is that what the public wants to hear about the most? Hard to say. Obama did a "town hall" today and took seven questions from the crowd; not one of them was about Romney. They were about gay rights, natural gas, small businesses, Girl Scout cookies, Washington, education and employment. http://abcn.ws/MA88xk
Obama Mocks Romney Tax Plan at Playful Town Hal l- President Obama today continued his personal assault on rival Mitt Romney, mocking the presumptive GOP nominee over a new report that estimates his jobs plan would create 800,000 jobs — overseas. http://abcn.ws/NzvIjd (Devin Dwyer)
Attacks Romney Tax Proposal Also Supported by Members of His Own Jobs and Export Councils – http://abcn.ws/P9VaLF (Tapper)
Did Obama Say 'If You've Got a Business, You Didn't Build That?' - Conservatives have been jumping on comments President Obama made in Roanoke, Virginia: "If you've got a business, you didn't build that." http://abcn.ws/MrrLdi (Tapper)

Who Is Rob Portman? The 'Anti-Palin' of VP Picks, 'Confident Enough to Be Humble' – CINCINNATI, Ohio – Ask Rob Portman, the soft-spoken Republican senator from Ohio, about the significance of Mitt Romney's looming running-mate decision, and he insists the pick won't change the arc of the 2012 general election. http://abcn.ws/LsS9pF (Ann Compton & Devin Dwyer)

Biden is Pinkman; Issa is Hank Schrader – Your Favorite Politicos 'Breaking Bad' - With its epically interwoven morality tales and cast of shady operators, AMC's "Breaking Bad" is a natural mirror for the power-struggle politics of this election year. So with the show's long-awaited fifth season finally underway, we've matched up some of the campaign's best known political players with their "Bad" alter egos - http://abcn.ws/My8fcF (Gregory Krieg)
'American Idol' 2012 – How Obama's Ad with Romney Singing 'America the Beautiful' is like the Dukakis tank ad or the Kerry windsurfing ad – The on-screen text in a recent television ad by Barack Obama's re-election campaign tries to make the point that companies associated with Mitt Romney during his time at Bain Capital sent American jobs overseas. It points out that he has kept money in Swiss bank accounts and in the Caribbean. But the Obama campaign has been fostering those attacks for some time. The real point of their new ad is that Mitt Romney can't sing. http://abcn.ws/SCn6YP
Race and Religion in 2012 – ABC / Washington Post Poll – "Racially insensitive attitudes toward blacks cost Barack Obama some votes, and to a lesser extent negative views on Mormonism hurt Mitt Romney politically. But those are countered by a favorable tilt toward the candidates among Americans who express more awareness of racial discrimination or who hold favorable views of Mormons. The racial effect is the larger one, showing strongly in views of whether blacks are discriminated against. Sixty-two percent of non-blacks in this ABC News/Washington Post poll think blacks in their communities don't experience racial discrimination (a view at odds with what most blacks themselves report). Among non-black registered voters who see no such discrimination, Romney leads Obama by 25 percentage points, 59-34 percent. Among non-blacks who do see discrimination, by contrast, Obama leads, 56-37 percent. (Blacks themselves support Obama nearly unanimously.)" http://abcn.ws/Mrpjnl (Gary Langer)
'Made In America' Policies Hugely Popular, Survey Shows-While President Obama and Mitt Romney bicker over whose policies will send more jobs overseas, there is one side of the job creation coin that both candidates agree on: that the government should do its darndest to keep manufacturing jobs in America. http://abcn.ws/SCNlhI (Amy Bingham)
Romney Raises $2 Million at Louisiana Lunch, Says Obama's Policies 'Stink' – BATON ROUGE – Mitt Romney accused President Obama today of giving American tax dollars to his campaign contributors, renewing his attacks on the president for being a "outsourcer-in-chief" and saying his policies "stink." http://abcn.ws/O2LzoP (Emily Friedman)
Biden Targets GOP, Paul Ryan Budget on Medicare & Social Security – Vice President Joe Biden pointed to Rep. Paul Ryan's budget as an example of Republicans adhering to a "different value set" than Democrats when it comes to reforming Social Security and Medicare, issues that he called "a family affair." http://abcn.ws/Ntwvyw (Arlette Saenz)
Treasury Inspector General Looks Into Personnel Soliciting Prostitutes, Having Inappropriate Relationships and More – Let's say you were going to throw an irony contest, trying to determine which federal employee's position would be most glaringly in violation of the act of soliciting a prostitute using government equipment. http://abcn.ws/NNxfRb (Jake Tapper)
FACT CHECK: Romney Fundraising Disadvantage? – The Romney campaign complains that despite the huge fundraising numbers they have brought in-beating the Obama campaign two months in a row-they are actually at a financial disadvantage. http://abcn.ws/OJvUbs (Shushannah Walshe & Elizabeth Hartfield)
Pro-Romney SuperPAC Raises $20 Million - The pro-Romney super PAC Restore Our Future raised a record-breaking $20 million in June, Brittany Gross, spokeswoman for the group, confirmed to ABC News. http://abcn.ws/Mcshh7 (Shushannah Walshe)

TUAW Poll: Would you buy a media center Mac mini?
Considering the rumors that are swirling about today regarding an Intel-based, media center Mac mini, I got to thinking: Would you buy one of these things? ThinkSecret has made it sound extremely appealing: FrontRow 2.0, TiVo-like functionality, a built-in iPod dock and a similar price point...what's not to love? If Steve whipped one of these out of his pocket at Macworld in January, priced in the $500 - $600US range, I'd have to hide my credit card on myself.
So, TUAWers, what do you think? Take the poll, and we'll post the results tomorrow.

Reminds me of home thanks.
beautiful sound!
Went through the whole Sound Ideas library and still couldn't find anything as striking. Incredible effect, and invaluable for my period film. Thank you.
I used this one in an audio play: "20.000 Leagues Under The Sea" by Jules Verne; recently recorded in one of the lecture halls at Bielefeld University, Germany (by a student drama group). A just-for-fun project (non-commercial).
goosebumps here dude !! :)
Hmm the website seems to have eaten my previous comment. I say again, this is an awesome sound, made for a great ghost train for my radio show's Halloween special. You can see all the attributions and download or listen links here.
Holy Shit, this is so fucking amazing!
I used this sound in my documentary series about Germany called Adventures in Deustchland!
You are listed in the end credits and at the following link since Youtube wouldn't let me put all the credits in the description field: http://bit.ly/18YL4sb
The credits are also accessible by clicking on the credit link when it appears in the video during the credits at the end.

Lunch Ideas?
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 01-13-2012 - 8:41am
Hey ladies... I pack my lunch to take to school with me each day and the last two days I've had to throw my lunch away because it grosses me out in some way so then I eat some saltines and a granola bar and end up hungry and that's not good. So I'm looking for ideas of what has sounded good to you all. Maybe I'll get some ideas of things I haven't thought of yet. I'm also having a hard time eating protein because most meat makes me gag. Any ideas?? Thanks everyone!
|Sun, 01-15-2012 - 6:23am
Couple that with the sodium, and I'm thinking I won't be having much canned anything. We do all frozen veggies for the most part anyway, but we do have quite a few canned goods in the cupboard.
I'm making stew tomorrow. I think I'm going to find a few more soup recipes while I'm at it and starting making them from scratch. God bless the crock pot!

|Sat, 01-14-2012 - 8:48pm
Let's see. I pack my lunch everyday to take to school. I have more of a lunch bag so that I have plenty of room for snacks. I usually make a ham and cheese sandwich with no mayo, mustard, etc.... It seems plain but tastes so good. I also eat a yogurt everyday at 9:30 and a piece of fruit at 1:30 or 2:00 (depending on my plan that day). I also bring graham crackers, mints, a granola bar, cheese... that sort of thing as a standby in case the other snacks do not sound good. I can tell you that I am so tired of eating 100-300 calories every three hours and can not wait until I can go 4 or 5 hours between snacks and meals. I just can't do it yet because it makes me SOOO sick!

I am trying to avoid canned soups and canned vegetables this pregnancy. I ate a lot of canned soup for lunches with my first. He was born with hypospadius of his penis and BPA is a suspect (out of many... hair spray also) that may lead to hypospadius in baby boys. So I'm really being mindful of BPA exposure and hair spray exposure this time around.
|Sat, 01-14-2012 - 4:24pm
I'm definitely aware of the tuna-mercury risk. That's why I only eat one tuna sandwich a week for lunch. I did the same with my first pregnancy and didn't cause any issues.

I love the robust flavors of this hearty salad. Beets, parsley and feta are the perfect balance for assertive buckwheat. It's a great combination and a wonderful buffet dish, particularly if you're serving to guests who are sensitive to gluten, as buckwheat is gluten-free.
1. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, bring stock and garlic to a boil. Gradually add kasha, stirring constantly to prevent clumping. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until all the liquid is absorbed and kasha is tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Fluff up with a fork and transfer to a serving bowl and let cool slightly.
2. Dressing: In a small bowl, combine vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper, stirring until salt dissolves. Gradually whisk in olive oil until blended. Add to kasha and toss well.
3. Add beets, celery and green onions to kasha and toss again. Chill until ready to serve. Just before serving, garnish with parsley and sprinkle feta over top.
Rice and Beet Salad with Celery and Feta: Substitute 3 cups (750 mL) cooked long-grain brown rice for the cooked kasha.
Buckwheat groats that are already toasted are known as kasha. If you prefer a milder buckwheat flavor, use groats rather than kasha in this dish. Just place them in a dry skillet over medium-high heat and cook, stirring constantly, until they are nicely fragrant, about 4 minutes. In the process they will darken from a light shade of sand to one with a hint of brown. Groats you toast yourself have a milder flavor than store-bought kasha.

Will Nintendo And AMD Benefit From Xbox, PlayStation Console Refresh?
Chris Lau, Kapitall: Ironically, as the two most popular gaming consoles gear up for their refresh, smaller competitors could benefit.
The Sony (SNE) PlayStation 4 and the Microsoft (MSFT) Xbox One are nearly in your hands, and incidentally, there's a chance two competing companies stand to benefit as well: Nintendo (OTC:NTDOY) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD).
Check out this infographic from Kapitall: Next Gen Gaming with New Xbox One and PS4 Consoles
Nintendo is up along with Microsoft shares in the last six months compared to AMD:Click on the interactive chart to view stock prices over time. Suprisingly strong sales Nintendo announced 300,000 new users for Wii U in its quarterly results. The boost in sales was spurred partly by a price cut. Nintendo wants to have 9 million consoles sold by the end of March 2014. For now, the company is losing money to build its user base, after dropping around $82 million in the quarter. As the PS4 and Xbox One consoles roll out, Nintendo could be poised to benefit if consumers decide a less expensive option is preferable. It is also important to note that Nintendo is not completely dependent on traditional console sales. Handheld console sales are still growing. Nintendo sold 2 million 3DS/3DS XL handheld consoles in the quarter. Microsoft could back away from the traditional model On the eve of the Xbox One launch, rumors are circulating that Microsoft could sell Bing and Xbox. If Stephen Elop becomes CEO of Microsoft, this could very well happen. The Xbox unit cost Microsoft billions in the last few years, so this move makes sense to some analysts. Free from trying to push Microsoft into the living room, the software giant would focus on other products. Server software and office productivity apps are very profitable for Microsoft. Interest in Windows 8.1 is steady but weak, as is demand for Windows tablets. These are two areas of potential growth, but would likely need Microsoft's full attention to perform better in the future.

Teyana Taylor Talks Rihanna Beef, Brandon Jennings, & Beyoncé's Support on 'The Breakfast Club'
Teyana Taylor had a lot to talk about when she stopped by Power 105′s "The Breakfast Club" on Wednesday to premiere her new single "Maybe" featuring Pusha T and Yo Gotti.
Charlamagne Tha God, Angela Yee, and DJ Envy grilled her about her relationship with ex-fiancé Brandon Jennings and his new girl, Tae Heckard.
She doesn't regret giving up her virginity to the Detroit Pistons player, but does feel betrayed by Heckard, who used to be her close friend. And don't expect a reconciliation between the girlfriends. "Absolutely not. That's gross," said Teyana.
She also talked about her BET scripted series "The Start Up" co-starring Diggy Simmons, her long-awaited album, and the constant "What does she do?" questions.
"I have 50 records that I technically can't put out," she said. "I do a million things, but have out music."
But now she's ready to silence her haters (she saves screenshots of mean tweets) with the release of "Maybe," which officially drops on May 13.
Plus, hear what she said about her infamous feud with Rihanna that caused her to lose her adidas sneaker deal, and how Beyoncé has kept her motivated with her words of encouragement.
On her ex-fiancé Brandon Jennings: "I was disappointed 'cause I felt betrayed because of everything that we've been through on and off for six years. … I will support you from a distance. I'm truly happy for Brandon."
On losing her virginity to Jennings: "I got a ring two years before I gave up anything. I'm very proud of that."
On whether she and Rihanna can mend their relationship: "I don't know, but she did have a nice [Vogue Brasil] cover. I don't gotta like her to like the cover."
On posting the bloody photo of Rihanna post-assault: "I do apologize to any woman that feels like that's what it was 'cause that's not what it was."
On Chris Brown: "He's doing good, man. He's in good spirits. When he get out, he gone be good. He's not in there bitter and harping. He's becoming a better man."
On Beyoncé's advice: "Me and Beyoncé had a long conversation when I went to her concert in Paris. She always acknowledges me no matter what she's doing. She's legit a fan of mine and she really believes in me."

Evening all, and welcome to our second Europa League live blog of the night as we switch our attention to south Wales for Swansea versus Napoli.
This last-32 first leg tie should present a tough test for Garry Monk's men, after the Italian side were shunted into the competition following their third place finish behind Arsenal and Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League group stages.
We're here to bring you all the fun and games from the Liberty Stadium, so buckle up and we'll have the teams for you shortly.
If you're just too darn excited about the Europa League resumption to wait until the 8pm kick-off, fear not.
Keep an eye on how Spurs are getting on against Dnipro here and let me steer you in the direction of this excellent piece by Sheridan Bird on the Lazarus-like resurrections of both Swansea and Napoli over the previous ten years.
PHOTO: The Liberty is ready for tonight's @EuropaLeague clash with @sscnapoli. Where will you be watching the game? pic.twitter.com/h4gSXYdKfh— Swansea City FC (@SwansOfficial) February 20, 2014
We have our teams:
- Swansea: Vorm, Rangel, Chico, Williams (c), Davies, Britton, Canas, Hernandez, Routledge, Dyer, Bony.
- Subs: Tremmel, Amat, Taylor, Shelvey, de Guzman, Emnes, Ngog.
- Napoli: Cabral, Maggio, Henrique, Britos, Reveillere, Dzemaili, Inler, Callejon, Insigne, Hamsik (c), Higuain.
- Subs: Reina, Mertens, Pandev, Ghoulam, Albiol, Behrami, Zapata.
Over in Ukraine, it's still goalless after 70 minutes, but the game is starting to heat up.
Follow that one here (but only if you promise to come back before kick-off of this game).
Meanwhile, here's Rafa...
VINE: The Napoli players have arrived at the Liberty ahead of tonight's game. #swans https://t.co/jWwhtqE9OX— Swansea City FC (@SwansOfficial) February 20, 2014
And we're off.
For some reason Napoli are wearing their yellow away kit which clashes far more with the Swansea home shirt than their usual blue number, but heigh-ho.
In case you missed the Spurs action from earlier, Tim Sherwood's men went down 1-0 in Ukraine - read the match report here.
Napoli are off to a flier here - Callejon fires one just past Vorm's far post from the right-hand side.
MATCH FACT: Only @SpursOfficial (69.7%) had a better average possession in the group stage than the #Swans (63.0%). #UEL— Swansea City FC (@SwansOfficial) February 20, 2014
Napoli really do mean business.
Hamsik is the latest to have a pop, as he finds some space on the edge of the area and drills in a low shot, that Vorm does very well to parry wide for a corner.
Swansea are the Premier League's last hope of getting something out of this week's European fixtures - the three previous sides have all lost and not conceded a goal so far this week.
Leon Britton goes oh-so-close to opening the scoring as he hits Swansea's first effort of the match.
He's tried to curl it into the top corner, but Napoli 'keeper Cabral - playing ahead of the usual number one Pepe Reina - manages to claw it away.
And then Bony has a pop from outside the area - this time it's all about the power, but it's way off target.
Another good chance for the Swans, as a textbook slick passing move is almost capped off with a goal.
Nathan Dyer zigzagged his way down the right-hand side and put in a cross which was *just* over Bony's head.
Impressive start from the home side, who seem to finding space to exploit in front of the Napoli back four.
That's a glorious chance for Swansea.
Pablo Hernandez just played an absolute stonker of a through ball, straight into the path of Bony, who timed his run to perfection, but wanted one too many touches when he was through one-on-one with Cabral.
But that ball by Hernandez. *Swoon*.
For all the salivating I've done over that Hernandez through-ball, it was a decent save from Cabral as the Napoli stopper used his FACE to prevent Bony's chip from going in. Kudos to him.
The ball is back up the other end now, as Ben Davies gets down low to head away a cross from the dangerous feet of Gonzalo Higuain who was lurking with intent at the back post.
Swansea are back into their groove now, playing their usual blend of tiki-taka.
The Hernandez-Bony combo is at it again, as another pass-pass-pass move from the home side climaxes when the Spaniard tees one up onto the head of his team-mate, but Bony has to manufacture all the power himself and his effort goes into the welcoming arms of Cabral.
Swansea continue to be rewarded for their dominance in possession with half-chances, with Canas this time trying his luck from the edge of the area after the ball fell to him, but his left-footed volley goes just over the bar.
Cabral then does well to clear a hospital backpass from Maggio, which causes this to happen:
Co-commentators love an underhit backpass that makes the goalkeeper panic.— Football Clichés (@FootballCliches) February 20, 2014
Another chance for Swansea!
This time it's via the head of Ashley Williams as the home side's skipper heads over from an Hernandez cross.
Into the final five minutes of the half now and Garry Monk's men have done just about everything apart from find the back of the net.
Another tick of the clock, another Swans chance.
Routledge bamboozles Maggio and fires in a shot from the corner of the penalty box - but again Cabral is there to tip over.
And from the resulting corner he tips Angel Rangel's header over the bar again.
The Brazilian stopper is on the floor now - he's clutching his knee, but perhaps he just fancied a rest? Pepe Reina is optimistically warming up on the touchline.
We'll play two minutes stoppage time and Napoli can't wait for the half to end. Swansea are all over them here.
Cabral lives to fight another day, but the home fans are not impressed that the referee saw fit to stop the game to a mere knee injury.
Said home fans are having a whale of a time in fact - every time the Italians launch the ball up the field to try to ease some of the relentless Swans pressure, they're shouting 'hoooof'.
One final Swansea attack ends with a goalkick and there's the half-time whistle.
Some performance by the the Welsh side so far.
Fancy some half-time reading?
Good. Fresh off the, er, internet is Robbie Savage's weekly column, where he takes aim at Manuel Pellegrini's claim that City are the biggest club in Manchester.
And there's more! Sav has also weighed in on Mesut Ozil's performance this week.
We'll be back underway in south Wales shortly...
Rafael Benitez lost with Chelsea on his last visit to the Liberty Stadium - and he isn't much enjoying tonight's return.
His Napoli side are second best to Swansea were are playing with pace, verve and determination.
Garry Monks' men should be ahead and are being denied by Rafael Cabral, who is playing a blinder.
Ashley Williams misses a sitter for the fired-up Swans and he heads over at the back post when he should have scored.
Cabral is injured just before half-time and does not look like he will be able to continue, which would pave the way for on-loan Liverpool keeper Pepe Reina to come on.
Almost ready to roll again, and Napoli are making a change, as goalkeeper Cabral has succumbed to the knee injury which he picked up at the end of the first half.
There's a familiar face in his place, as Pepe Reina, on loan from Liverpool, takes his position between the sticks.
And we're off again. Can the home side add a goal or two to all their possession? Let's find out...
17 - Swansea have not taken a lead into half-time in their last 17 matches in all competitions, going on to win 4 of these games. Swanning.— OptaJoe (@OptaJoe) February 20, 2014
Napoli finally fashion a chance, as Gonzalo Higuain is played in, but his powerful shot is well over.
And then it's back to more Swansea possession, but nothing too incisive.
Jonathan de Guzman looks like he's getting ready to come on, but not before a neat little run from Hernandez who darts around the Napoli area before shooting wide.
Hernandez gets his name in the book, when the referee shows him a yellow for a late challenge on Insigne - a tad harsh, I'd say.
And that's his final contribution of the evening, as he gets subbed off for Jonathan de Guzman.
The Spaniard has had an excellent game tonight, so it's a bit puzzling as to why Monk has taken him off.
Hernandez seems to have come off with a thigh injury - which makes more sense.
Insigne is the next to find his way into the referees book, when he too is harshly yellowed carded.
It's been a bit flat since the break...
Rafael Cabral cannot continue and he is replaced by Liverpool's on-loan keeper Pepe Reina.
The only concern for Swansea is they have not scored and they need something to show for their dominance in the first half.
Little has been seen of Gonzalo Higuain, who overcame a back injury to play, and the Argentina striker volleyed over from a great chance in front of goal.
Swansea make their first change and Jonathan de Guzman replaces Pablo Hernandez, who has been excellent.
Napoli are getting more chances here in this second half, and if you're a Swansea fan you'd worry their front players have more of a cutting edge than the home team do.
Callejon is the latest to go close, when he fires one in with the edge of his boot, but it drifts wide of Vorm's post. He started that move off with a cheeky nutmeg of Ben Davies.
More of that please, it's all going a bit bland.
Pepe Reina is called into action when he parries Ashley Williams' header following Jonathan de Guzman's tantalising whipped free-kick.
There's 20 minutes left for Swansea to find a goal here - which means that Premier League teams have played 340 minutes without finding the net in Europe this week.
Still, it's not been a bad performance from the Swans.
Swansea have been superb tonight!— Stan Collymore (@StanCollymore) February 20, 2014
Swansea win a free-kick in a very promising position, just outside the area on the left-hand side when Routledge is felled.
The ref isn't impressed with Hamsik's behaviour in the wall (either that or his haircut) and his dishes out a yellow card.
And the free kick? A poor attempt from de Guzman, which sales over the bar.
Another pair of changes: Jose Canas comes off, Jonjo Shelvey comes on for Swansea, whereas it's Insigne off, Mertens on for the visitors.
They're getting closer.
Swansea have another chance when Wayne Routledge ghosts in from the left and goes for Pepe Reina's top corner - but the Liverpool man is up to the task pulls out a great stop.
Dyer tries to get on the rebound, but over stretches and goes down injured. He's being whisked off in favour of Emnes.
Another sub as the game almost grinds to a halt - Gonzalo Higuain is replaced by Goran Pandev for the Italians.
Swansea force another couple of half chances, with Bony glancing a header wide from a deflected cross and Flores just beating the offside trap from a free-kick to head into the arms of Reina.
The Premier-League-clubs-not-scoring-in-Europe-this-week-ometer goes up to 356 minutes...
We're into stoppage time now, with four minutes on the fourth official's board.
And talking of bored (sorry) this second half has really disappointed, with very few clear cut chances and a marked difference in tempo from the high-octane first 45 minutes.
Routledge keeps on going until the end, finding the byeline, in the 94th minute, but his cross goes into Reina's arms and that's all she wrote.
Another blank for Rafa Benitez at the Liberty Stadium - but at least he has not had a player sent off for fighting a ball boy.
The Napoli boss lost on his last visit here with Chelsea a year ago in the Capital One Cup semi-final and he is relieved to escape undamaged this time.
Benitez and his side should have lost and Swansea produce a stirring performance to restore some pride for the Premier League after a poor week in Europe.
Swansea's only regret is that they do not have the win their dominance deserved and they are frustrated repeatedly by goalkeeper Rafael Cabral and his half-time replacement Pepe Reina.
And that's where we'll call it a night.
You can read David Anderson's match report here, as Swansea failed to take advantage of a dominant performance. Still, it's all to play for at the San Paolo in Naples next week.
And that comes after Tottenham lost their first leg against FC Dnipro 1-0, thanks to a goal from Yevhen Konoplyanka. Catch up on that one here.
Thanks for tuning in folks, see you next time.

esiderata, I learned in library science school, were the items you
needed for an archive to make it useful. Useful, not complete, because there is
no such thing as a complete archive. There's always a letter out there you want
and need, either in someone else's collection or in an attic or just unfound.
You need and want things you don't even know exist. That's how collections
I come from a family strong on documents. I have a small archive myself. My grandfather McCracken was a genealogist--I have his history of the McCrackens, a lovely compilation of research on early ancestors and personal remembrances of his own relatives. His wife, my grandmother, wrote stories and poems; I have copies of those, and remember once opening a drawer full of letters she wrote to God, part prayer and part daily correspondence to Someone dear. I have my grandmother Jacobson's collection of family letters; she had 11 brothers and sisters, some who wrote often and some just now and then. I have diplomas of relatives I never met. I have diaries and laundry lists. I love anything written by a relative, any evidence of what they really thought.
And I read these documents fairly regularly. Besides letters from her family, my grandmother also saved letters from Martha, her children's nanny. My mother, who says she had the happiest childhood on record, remembers Martha and her letters as lovely and slightly daffy. Her twin sister, my aunt Carolyn, remembers the letters and the woman as dark and Dickensien, longing for a time that never really existed. I'd always assumed that the truth was somewhere in the middle, but I have the letters and now know that Martha was, at best, weird. She wrote to my travelling grandmother that the twins--The Dollies, she called them--didn't miss her at all. She reported that she took them out to her mother's farm, and couldn't understand why the girls were so upset to be served for dinner the chicken they'd met earlier. She reported on The Dollies' toilet training as if it were grand opera, and the Dollies heroines who wanted only, desperately, to triumph.
I'm glad to know this, I think. Certainly, it's a whole different Martha than the one I knew from my mother's stories. I know Martha now because of all that she reveals of herself, not knowing she was doing it, in her letters.
Still, there are many frustrations to family papers. First of all, you may learn things you don't want to know. For instance: some of my grandmother's sisters wanted to sue the widow of one of their brothers. Even in letters from the litigious sisters themselves, this comes across as merely petty and vindictive. There are letters that can break your heart: my Aunt Edna, writing to my grandmother, lamented how poor her health was, how the doctors told her to slow down; I know from the dates that Edna died two weeks later, of a heart attack.
But the major frustration is how incomplete everything is, how incomplete people are if you try to meet them this way. The great-aunt who wanted to sue only happened to write it down; maybe she gave up the idea. Maybe she was suffering otherwise--her life was continually tragic in small ways, I know that. Some of the great-aunts I barely know, because they barely wrote. Or rather, I think they barely wrote--my grandmother saved every letter some years, and selected letters others. Perhaps those great-aunts simply never made it into the collection.
And then there's my grandmother Jacobson herself She was a wonderful I and complex woman, an attorney and small businessperson who died at home at the age of 90. The pieces of paper I have from her don't conjure her up at all. Her diary (which I don't own but have read) is a very careful record of daily events, nothing more. She doesn't detail worries or doubts, and the fact is she was a worried and somewhat doubtful person. I think she knew that we'd read it, eventually, and didn't want to tell us in her diary anything she hadn't told us already.
One piece of paper I do have: a post-it note from late in her life, which she used to mark a recipe in The Jewish Cookbook. It says:
wax beans?
and then, in the corner, written diagonally and underlined,
lottery ticket.
I know that this dates to a time when she was both worried about money and had become very serious about luck. I don't know how superstitious she'd previously been, but about two years before she died, she began to see luck good and bad, in everything: she read her horoscope, her children's horoscope, the horoscope of everyone who might touch her life that day. She believed in fortune cookies. She told her own fortune playing solitaire. And she bought lottery tickets, not so much because she believed she might win but because not playing meant she did not believe that sudden good things could happen. She was a businessperson, after all: she knew what a bad investment that weekly dollar was.
I love that little green piece of paper. Desideratum to me, though less than ephemera to anyone else.
I could tell dozens of other stories from the pages of family papers: my aunt Blanche's pell-mell record of taking care of her favorite sister, Elizabeth, who was dying of Alzheimer's; Blanche has that disease herself now, and you can see the early signs in these notes. My great-uncles' cheery letters from Europe during World War II. A letter my brother wrote to my grandmother when I was four and he was six, thanking her for a gift and then recording that I was resisting writing a thank-you note myself.
Here's a last story. My father's parents were, when I knew them, quiet people. I know now that my version of them is different from anyone else's, but they were my grandparents and I never questioned who I understood them to be. After their deaths, I inherited a cherry chest-of-drawers from their house. I owned this imposing piece of furniture for a few years before I lifted some paper lining from one of the drawers and found a letter. Part of a letter, actually, written by my grandfather to my grandmother before their marriage.
It was one of the most beautiful love letters I've ever read, full of delight for her person and for their love together. It was passionate and thrilled and almost disbelieving of his great fortune, to have found her. I never imagined my grandfather, my quiet careful grandfather, was the sort of man who'd write any kind of love letter, never mind this kind. Wrong again. And my grandmother had saved it for more than fifty years. I wondered whether she took it out and reread it from time to time, or whether she'd forgotten where she'd put it.
My parents were out of town that weekend, and as it happened I'd agreed to pick them up at the airport. I brought the letter to give to my father--if it meant that much to me, I couldn't imagine what it would mean to him. And so, sitting on a bench in Logan, I gave it to him. "Look what I found," I said.
"Oh," he said, perfectly pleased but not surprised. "Another letter. I'll put it with the others."
Turns out there were many more--my grandparents had written each other several times a day during their courtship. Which makes it, of course, a happier story.
My question is: was that letter more a desideratum for me, or my father? He had the collection, I didn't. Sometimes I regret giving it to him. I've forgotten the exact words my grandfather used, but it doesn't seem right to ask for someone else's love letter back. Someday I'll see it again, I know. Meanwhile, I need it and desire it. I need and desire everything that belongs to my family, and in some ways, I think, that's what I do with my days, writing fiction. I am writing love letters to diaries and post-it notes and telegrams and birthday cards. I am writing love letters to love letters.

The road to Splitsville is strewn with red tape and fights over money for one O.C. couple.
Aug. 20, 1988 – Carol Walton, 50 and divorced with four adult children from two ex-husbands, meets Warren Rosendale, 54, divorced with three adult kids from a former wife.
July 12, 1989 – Carol and Warren Rosendale sign a prenuptial agreement prepared by her attorney.
Aug. 20, 1989 – The Rosendales get married at sea.
Aug. 23, 1997 – Carol is badly injured in a car accident and suffers physical and mental injuries.
January 2000 – Citing irreconcilable differences, Warren files for divorce and the couple separate.
June 1, 2001 – The marriage is formally dissolved.
Aug. 24, 2001 – A judge rules the prenup valid. In the prenup, Carol agreed to a $100,000 payment in exchange for waiving spousal support. She received the money shortly after the divorce became final.
Late 2002 – Seeking spousal support following an amendment to a family law code, Carol challenges the validity of the prenup, but a court again finds the contract valid.
June 28, 2004 – An appellate court panel sides with Carol in ruling that the prenuptial agree was unfair as to the waiver of spousal support and remands the case to a trial court.
July 2005 – The state Supreme Court refuses to take up the matter.
April 2009 – A family-law judge finds the prenup to be unenforceable when it comes to spousal support, meaning that Carol can pursue spousal support beyond the $100,000 she already received per the prenup.
What's next:
Oct. 17, 2012 – The next hearing will be held at the Lamoreaux Justice Center in Orange. Among the issues to be decided are lawyer fees for Carol's recently fired attorney and whether Carol is entitled to spousal support.
ORANGE – Twelve years would be a long stint in prison or a coma.
But a 12-year divorce?
Welcome to Rosendale v. Rosendale, a court battle local lawyers describe as one of the longest-ever divorce cases in Orange County.
No fewer than six lawyers have been employed over the years by the two litigants, Warren Rosendale, now 79, and his perpetually ex-wife, Carol Rosendale, now 74. A half-dozen judges have heard the case.
The fight has frayed emotions to the edge of numbness and changed the rules for prenuptial agreements. The battle, of course, has sucked away money. Legal fees easily have exceeded $100,000, and that doesn't include court costs.
But this divorce has eaten up time, too, and, with it, the lives of the people involved.
At a hearing in Orange in late August, a look of disgust crossed Warren Rosendale's face as he walked out of the courtroom of a family-law judge, a venue he has visited countless times over the past 12 1/2 years.
Carol Rosendale, who lives in Newport Beach, had just fired her attorney – again. And Judge Clay Smith agreed to carry over the next hearing (until Oct. 17) – again. To date, the case has nearly 450 register of actions on file.
As Warren Rosendale, who now lives in Austin, Texas, stood in the hot sun and conferred with his longtime attorney, Michael Michel, he grimaced at the sight of an approaching reporter.
After several minutes of off-the-record chatter, Warren Rosendale took a simple question: Though he and his ex-wife continue to battle in court, their marriage was dissolved, formally, on June 1, 2001, meaning he's been eligible to remarry ever since. Has he?
The question left him dumbfounded.
"Hell no!"
Hate wasn't always in the air.
In 1988, Warren Rosendale, then 54, was a successful businessman looking for love. In Carol Walton, then 50 – a blond, blue-eyed beauty – he found it.
The two wed at sea, a year after they met, and lived at his homes on Balboa Island and La Quinta, supported by his income from properties and other investments.
The Rosendales, each with adult children from former marriages, lived lives of sporty leisure. They played competitive tennis at a country club. They skipped off to weekend ski trips. They logged more than 2,500 miles on their boats, Bandit and Samurai.
