CPI in May 2007
June 18, 2007
On a seasonally adjusted basis, the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) advanced 0.7 percent in May, following a 0.4-percent increase in April.
The index for energy increased sharply for the third consecutive month—up 5.4 percent in May. The index for petroleum-based energy rose 9.8 percent while the index for energy services declined 0.2 percent.
The food index rose 0.3 percent in May, slightly less than in April.
The index for all items less food and energy advanced 0.1 percent in May, following a 0.2-percent rise in April. Smaller increases in the indexes for shelter and medical care were responsible for the moderation.
During the first five months of 2007, the CPI-U rose at a 5.5-percent seasonally adjusted annual rate (SAAR). This compares with an increase of 2.5 percent for all of 2006. The acceleration thus far this year was due to larger increases in the energy and food components. The index for energy advanced at a 36.0-percent SAAR in the first five months of 2007 compared with 2.9 percent in 2006.
The food index has increased at a 6.2-percent SAAR thus far this year, following a 2.1-percent rise for all of 2006. Excluding food and energy, the CPI-U advanced at a 2.1-percent SAAR in the first five months, following a 2.6-percent rise for all of 2006.
For the 12 months ended in May 2007, the CPI-U rose 2.7 percent, as shown in the chart.
These data are from the BLS Consumer Price Index program. To learn more, see "Consumer Price Index: May 2007" (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 07-0845.

Jason DiSalvo ended two days of XR1200 testing at Indianapolis Motor Speedway yesterday as the fastest rider, the Team Latus Motors Harley-Davidson rider turning in a 1:58.342 to best Steve Rapp's 1:58.597 as testing concluded for next weekend's two Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson XR1200 races that will be held in conjunction with the Red Bull Indy Grand Prix.DiSalvo and Rapp were the only two riders to crack the 1:59 barrier.
"The track seemed to come in really well there toward the end of the day," said DiSalvo. "For the race, this track is just going to get better and better. We've been working on some stuff with the tires, but the spec Dunlop tires we run are lasting pretty good and it's only going to get better. I love riding the XR1200. I'm actually riding my teammate, Chase McFarland's, backup bike and I haven't changed one thing - spring rates, anything - from the time I got on it. All in all it's been really good. It's a blast to ride, and fun. It's going to be a great show for the fans out here and I can't wait to see thirty-plus Harley-Davidson XR1200s line up in front of a packed house here at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway."Championship points-leader Chris Fillmore ran a limited number of laps yesterday, but declared himself fit to protect his overall lead."We're ready to go," said Fillmore, "and I wanted to rest my shoulder a little. It's been a good couple of days and we feel pretty good about this race. After that, we'll look forward to the final race at New Jersey, where I'll also be riding my KTM AMA Pro Superbike."A total of 22 Harley-Davidson XR1200s tested at the Speedway, and a number of additional riders are slated to be join them for the inaugural AMA Pro Vance & Hines XR1200 doubleheader, pushing the number of expected entries to more than 30, according to AMA Pro Racing.Vance & Hines' Terry Vance reflected on the significance of the upcoming races, saying, "It's a great thing to see the class out here and the number of bikes we're going to have on the grid for the MotoGP weekend. I'm just really happy everybody has come together with Harley-Davidson, Vance & Hines, and AMA Pro to make all this happen, culminating in the upcoming event. We only started this class a year and a half ago, and we have 33 guys entered for this race, so we're doing really good. There aren't too many young racing series in the United States that are actually growing, and to look at the Harley-Davidson class and say it's made leaps and bounds is an understatement.
"I never really thought about racing here at Indy," Vance continued, "but the opportunity became available this year when Mel Harder from IMS said it was a possibility. David Atlas from AMA Pro got it put together, and we started talking to Harley-Davidson and Vance & Hines and made it a reality. It's a nice moment for us, and I'm really excited to see the XR1200s on the track."

Another coolant question after searching the forum
Was doing fuel filters today and noticed a hint of coolant around the edges of the degas bottle. Drove the truck around until it got to operating temp, ECT and EOC are never more than 6 degrees apart. Doing normal driving, I didn't find any new evidence of dried coolant on the bottle. Did a few WOT passes and found a few trickles of fresh coolant outside the cap.
I have noticed a tea kettle ish sound when I left off the throttle, but I also have a cracked coupler on my metal charge pipe.
A bit more info... I will shamefully admit my coolant is more distilled water than actual coolant, it was low when I bought the truck and am planning on doing a coolant flush as soon as my IPR filter kit arrives, so I topped it off with distilled until then.
Last time I was at the dealer I left it with them for a few days to run performance tests on the truck (which they did at no charge since I had just bought the truck from them) and they feel the coolant is boiling due to being mostly water, and suggested I get it flushed soon to avoid rust and clogging the oil cooler. The tech, who supposedly only works on diesels, thinks the boiling is causing enough pressure to release the cap. Plausable, but the coolant temp rarely rises above 190. According to my SCT, the record high temp is 196.
Thankfully, this truck only gets driven maybe two days a week. I've only put around 800 miles on it since I bought it just over a month ago.
With the evidence presented here... what do you guys think?
I'd try a new ford degas cap before anything. Who knows, your old one might not be holding enough pressure
Your asking for trouble with mostly water, that will create a mess of rust. Besides getting coolant in there, make sure your coolant level is slightly below the min. mark, unless you have the revised degass bottle. I run mine 1/2" below min. level.
Sent from my phone that somebody didn't help me get.
if you are running mostly water keep in mind that your boiling point is around 212 now not in the 230 range with 50/50 mix. i forget the actual boil point but i think its close
Boiling point goes up as pressure goes up, pressurized cooling system=higher boiling point. I dont know how much i just know that it does. I know its not alot of pressure in there but it should be enough to keep water from boiling. I may get flamed for this but since my hg job i have been running straight water from the garden hose. Cools fine and deltas are good. It may cause some rust but until i need to change for winter its staying in there. I once had a teacher break down coolant to me. Straight water will cool better than a 50/50 mix. Coolants properties are to remove heat and prevent freezing. Coolant carries heat longer than water, Therefore not cooling as fast when it passes through the radiator. So technically water will dissipate heat faster therefore carry more away. Think how long mashed potatoes hold heat vs a heated glass of water. Its a little extreme for an example but the same idea. But even with all that even i think im a little insane for running straight tap water but its working and when it comes down to it the only thing its really gonna hurt is the oil cooler in the event of massive rust particles breaking free from the block and passing through. However there is water in coolant so i doubt its rusting the insides out much more than 50/50 mix will. Eot, ect, was 200/205 towing an empty trailer on the highway. With straight water its dropped to 190/197, same trailer and ambient temp on the same stretch of road. Sorry for the long winded post. Just a bit of hopefully usable info for someone.
What would I be doing right now if I didn't have an iPhone?
Without running the correct coolant, you are at high risk of cavitation damage. Cavitation can and will create pinholes and deterioration of cylinder walls and water pump front cover. It is well documented. Forget the cooling aspect............
Sent from my phone that somebody didn't help me get.
Got the revised cap today and hammered it the whole way home, not a drop of coolant outside the bottle. I won't call it a victory just yet as others here have reported the same thing only to come back a day or two later and say the puking resumed. Turns out I did have the old style cap, I still have the original degas bottle but it has the new level indicator sticker on it. Coolant stays about a 1/4" below the MIN line.
Will continue to monitor the situation and see what develops. Hopefully my IPR Filter kit will be here this week. I don't plan on doing a flush since my delta's rarely jump above 5* apart, figure I'll just drain the old stuff, fill with distilled a few times, and then run a good ELC coolant.
What would I be doing right now if I didn't have an iPhone?
What would I be doing right now if I didn't have an iPhone?
Went and picked up 4 gallons of Zerex EC-1 today from NAPA. They had to order it but they had it later in the afternoon and it was only $13.99 a gallon. Question is, since my deltas are good, would I be okay just draining the old crap out, filling with distilled a few times, draining, and then topping off with Zerex? Or do an all out flush?
Obviously I'd rather do a drain and fill, and not risk my apparently healthy oil cooler, but wanted an experienced opinion.

Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) -- After a bizarre watch heist, one of the women accused spoke out to Action News.
Police said Trinity Kennard, Bryanna Warren, and Charmella Triggs used their charms and sexual favors to seduce two tourists from India, get them drunk, then rob them of their Rolex watches worth $16,000. But it's what they did when they were allegedly caught in the act that has people talking.
According to police, the women tried to flee, hiding the watches in their vaginas.
Action News contacted Trinity Kennard and requested a jailhouse interview, and she obliged. Kennard seemed surprised to be behind bars, saying, "I thought when stuff like this happens it's just like a personal thing. I didn't think police would get involved and I could go to jail."
But that's what happened to Kennard and her two friends after the Aug. 17 incident at the Encore Hotel. Police said when the two men realized they were being robbed, one man chased the girls out to the elevator in his underwear, backing off when Triggs pulled a stun gun.
Security footage captured what happened next: Police documents say the cameras showed the girls, "hike up their dresses, squat, and while looking into the camera, appear to insert foreign objects into their respective vaginal and/or anal cavities."
Police said hotel security caught up with the girls. They were arrested in the taxi line. After some interrogation, one officer stated, "Kennard had removed the item from her vagina, then handed me a plastic bag which contained a blood covered Rolex."
Action News asked Kennard if she regrets what happened that night, "Totally, I'm in jail. I totally regret it and I feel bad for what happened, but I mean, they got their stuff back."
Kennard said when she gets out, she won't be doing it again. When asked if she'd learned her lesson, Kennard said, "Oh definitely, I've missed out on a lot of things being in here [jail]. I'm not even from here, I want to go home now. It's really depressing."
All three women are facing grand larceny charges. They are due in court Sept. 3.

text: joefriday 5pts This could in large part be avoided if car owners took it upon themselves to learn a modicum of automotive repair, or at least spring for the cheap code readers on the market. $60 can get you a reader that allows you to see the code, the explanation and then decide if it is necessary to take it to the dealer to repair, or just to reset the light for a leaky gas cap. $250 for an O2 sensor swap? That's sad considering a replacement Bosch sells for ~$50 at your local discount auto store, and usually they are open enough to get at with a wrench ($10 for a cresent wrench or $25 for a set of large metric wrenches, so you can get that 22mm box end). Total cost: $75 max, and usually less than 1/2 of time. Unless you make $300/hour it doesn't pay to have someone else change an O2 sensor.

The sand is dug up, the valuable minerals are separated in water by using their different density, and the remaining ordinary sand is re-deposited.
The above mentioned machines, such as separator and sand washing machine are all Shanghai SBM Company's special equipment for sand mining process. The high quality and high efficiency will ensure the high profits for customers. We also set up the project term and there are also a lot of successful sand mining plants in India cases.

In the specification of a Matrix, if Circulant[V] is included in the calling sequence as an indexing function, where V is a Vector or list of algebraic values, a Circulant Matrix is returned.
Note: A Circulant Matrix is a Matrix where the entries of a given row are the elements of the previous row moved cyclically one position to the right. All entries on the main diagonal are therefore identical.
The specification is similar in the construction of an Array.

Going Cold Turkey. I Mean Sausage.
Previous Blog entry
Next Blog entry
Landing back in reality with a soft bump after floating in the frictionless, non contact labyrinth sealed world of Eurobike for the last week a few sharp highlights emerge from the marsh-green blurry fug that only six men in a caravan can produce.
A rucksack full of brochures and business cards and freebies - t-shirts, socks, stickers, stickers, stickers, a water-bottle, some oil, more brochures, a set of Grippp gloves that I'd totally forgotten about from a company that were showing their product from a small table, a Tacx towel, a reflective trouser-band, a rainbow-striped sweat-band and a belt-buckle.
Getting to ride a right posh bike that made me giggle and detecting the subtle nuances between that and the next posh bike that just felt a bit 'meh', smooth smooth German tarmac, cats in fields and being overtaken uphill by an electric-powered downhill mountainbike.
Being squeezed between two other men in a bed, twice, isn't as bad as having to squeeze past Germans shaving their heads in the shower-block only to come face-to-er, face with others wandering about stark-bollock-naked, before breakfast. A breakfast of coffee, bread, ham and cheese, a menu that would perpetually loop for the three main meals of the day and many points in between. Leading to the unfettered joy of finding a banana, tears of happiness and vitamins.
Being two feet from Jens Voigt and not knowing what to say to him, but being polite enough not to lurch over and give him a great big hug. Whilst Vinokourov is just really rather small and no-one wants to talk to Frank Høj.
Getting excited by a touring bike and being the first person in the world to ride a €10K bike, still quite light-headed about that actually, and getting overly worried about scraping the brand-new chrome toe-clips on tarmac.
Barbie-doll threesome bondage, Toto, dancing with The Devil, free beer, looking at expensive shoes, dumpling the size of a small loaf in custard, that big bloke from the Continental advert, tired feet, dodging swarms of electric bikes, spending a week of late-summer sunshine indoors.
A whole week trolling round a baker's dozen of show halls, stuffed with both wonder and tatt, über-technology and garage-bodge, becoming bike-blind so you don't really notice anything any more and it takes another set of eyes to point out the thing of beauty you'd walked past countless times before, and limping through the show as it gets packed away and seeing something you'd wished you'd spotted days before because it's so sweet and special. Despite spending 5 days looking, breathing, talking and writing bikes still not being jaded so that during a post-show beer by the lake your head is turned by every single bike that drifts past, the top-drawer mountainbike, the 1940's rod-braked black bike, the ratty BMXs, the clunky hire bike. Bikes.
And now the ecstatic relief of a scratchable itch to actually ride a bike rather than just stare at them. But first, a decent cup of tea, a meal with some roughage in and possibly something vegetabley that goes crunch, and then a good shave to turn legs grown hairy with walking into those of cycling.
sounds like you had fun! do those gloves really have 'GRIPPPP' written across the top, cant see me in them TBH.

The September 23 parliamentary elections in Belarus fell short of international standards and their conduct cannot be considered free or fair. The preliminary assessment of the OSCE election observation mission found that the elections were "not competitive from the start." The observer mission cited the limitation of choice for voters, the lack of impartiality on the part of the election commission, and the lack of proper counting procedures.
The United States urges the authorities to take steps to meet Belarus's international commitments to hold genuinely democratic elections and to foster respect for human rights. Enhanced respect for democracy and human rights in Belarus, including the release and rehabilitation of all political prisoners, remains central to improving bilateral relations with the United States.

Yo, it might sound crazy, but it ain't no lie, you can totally score on some officially licensed NSYNC buttons. This set of five buttons includes Justin Timberlake, Joey Fatone, Lance and the other two who we don't remember but imagine were named Flounder and Goatee. These hearken back to a more innocent time in the year 2000. A full nine years before Justin brought the sexy back, but at least three years after it disappeared when Burgess Meredith died. About 1-1/2" in diameter, these metal buttons will supercharge your nostalgia circuits and have you humming "This I Promise You" under your breath.

To day I am much better in fact able to attend to business. I had the cannon carriages removed to the steam boat landing. Business dull. Workmen still progressing with my house. Frank Stewart still hauling brick. weather changeable & rather cold.
Thus closes my notes for the month of December and also for the year just passed and gone and now numbered with the things that were. Whether the Almighty will spare me to chronicle the daily events of the incoming year is more than I know but trusting in Him I shall enter upon the pleasing task, which is useful as a reference and may be profitable to those who have an interest in me.

Top Seed Bartoli Falls in Acapulco
Posted on March 1, 2007
ACAPULCO, México - A straight set first round win over an in-form player seemed to be an encouraging sign that one of last year's most improved players, Marion Bartoli, had regained control of her 2007 campaign. But for the seventh time in seven starts, the Frenchwoman was unable to win consecutive matches, falling to Julia Schruff in the second round. She wasn't the only seed to fall.
Bartoli, who won her first three career titles last year and cracked the Top 20 in the fall, was hoping to make her first big run as the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour transitioned to slow red clay in Acapulco. But the No.1 seed struggled from the get go against the crafty Schruff, winning only 13 points in the first set; she pushed hard in the second set but still fell in one hour, 12 minutes.
Schruff is now through to her seventh career quarterfinal on the Tour. She is a one-time finalist, at Estoril in 2003, and has fallen at the quarterfinal stage five times, once in 2005 (Hasselt) and four times last year (Auckland, Canberra, Doha, Palermo). She has now beaten Bartoli in two of their three meetings.
The only one of the top four seeds to reach the quarters was No.2 seed Tathiana Garbin, who benefited from a 64 30 retirement win over Zsofia Gubacsi, when the Hungarian qualifier stopped with a low back strain. France's Emilie Loit ousted No.3-seeded Martina Müller in straight sets, 62 62, while French teenager Alize Cornet downed No.4-seeded compatriot Severine Brémond, 76(3) 62. Müller's upset was not as surprising as the seedings implied, considering Loit has reached the quarterfinals or better in all six of her appearances here now and also won the pair's lone prior encounter with the loss of just two games, 61 61.
Flavia Pennetta and Gisela Dulko, the No.5 and No.6 seeds respectively, were in better form. Pennetta gained revenge for a semifinal defeat in Bogotá last week, crushing fellow Italian Roberta Vinci in just 43 minutes, 60 62; Dulko was in a much tighter bind, facing two set points down 6-5 in the first set and rallying back from a 4-1 deficit in the second set tie-break but prevailing over Spain's Laura Pous Tio, 76(2) 76(7).
Also advancing were Italian qualifier Sara Errani, a 16 63 64 winner over Estonia's Kaia Kanepi, and Mexican wildcard Melissa Torres Sandoval, who beat the Czech Republic's Eva Birnerova, 64 62. Errani has now reached this stage at a Tour event twice, having been a quarterfinalist in Budapest in 2006. Torres Sandoval had never won a main draw match on the Tour prior to this week.
All four quarterfinals are up Thursday. Garbin will face Errani, Pennetta takes on Cornet, Dulko plays Loit and Schruff plays Torres Sandoval. (WTA)

Making your 529 plan socially responsible
Posted: 2010-02-05 - Lori Johnston is a freelance writer in Georgia.
Feeling good about your 529 plan investment choices? For some parents, it's not as much about financial return as it is about being socially responsible citizens.
A handful of states -- Virginia, California, Pennsylvania, Illinois and the District of Columbia -- offer socially responsible investment options, providing a niche that attracts some parents and 529 plan owners desiring to exclude companies involved in products like tobacco or alcohol, or focusing their portfolio only on green companies.
"There's a whole segment of the population that believes in socially responsible investing," says Laurent Ross, college savings program manager for Calvert Investments, which manages the District of Columbia's 529 College Savings Plan and offers its Social Investment Equity 529 Portfolio in Illinois' Bright Directions Plan.
Ross' comments bring up a key factor that folks need to consider before embarking on this strategy: Just what is socially responsible investing? Ross and other experts provided answers and shared their tips.
What's important to me?
Your goal may be only to make the most money for your kids' college education. But some folks also want to invest in their children's future in ways other than just making sure they can attend college, Ross says.
"Think about all the people in the United States who don't want to invest in tobacco stocks because they know tobacco is a product that poisons our youth and is designed to be addictive," he says. "You might make more money investing in tobacco. I think people are willing to take a little less gain."
What does socially responsible mean to you?
It can be defined in different ways, depending on the individual.
Allan Roth, CPA, CFP and founder of Wealth Logic in Colorado Springs, Colo., says a fundamentalist Christian could define it as not investing in industries with alcohol and tobacco products while others might focus on companies helping the environment. He recommends that individuals determine what standards are used to screen the investments and how often they're screened, in case a company changes its policies to allow same-sex benefits, for example.
Timing also is a factor. Roth has seen an increase in requests from his Denver-based Wealth Logic clients related to green and energy-efficiency companies when gas prices rose.
"It's a combination of being a good citizen and performance chasing," he says.
Lost returns
Are you willing to give up some investment return in order to be investing in a socially responsible manner? If so, how much?
You will be limiting the universe of potential stocks and to an extent, you could be limiting your investment returns, says Joe Hurley, a certified public accountant and founder of Savingforcollege.com. They also typically aren't available in popular age-based options.
"That's not to say they're always going to perform worse," Hurley says. "You really have to go and see those returns to see how they've fared in terms of other types of mutual funds."
Roth says socially targeted funds tend to appeal to investors who want to beat the market and be a good citizen, and both typically don't happen because socially responsible investing restricts the number of stocks an investor can select. "Financial theory would tell us that your earnings might be less," he says. "That's the real pitfall."
Higher costs?
Check out what you are or would be paying in terms of fees and its expense ratio. Niche products tend to be more expensive than mainstream products, Hurley says.
Lost deduction
If you live in a state where you can get a tax deduction for investing in the state's 529 plan, you will lose that deduction by investing in a socially targeted fund offered by an out-of-state plan.
As a result, Roth urges clients to do their socially responsible investing outside of 529 investments.
"The overriding factors are what has the lowest cost and what gives you the biggest tax deduction," he says. "I'm trying to get them as broad as possible (in their investment portfolio), not as narrow as possible."
What's in it for the states?
Since only a handful of states have socially responsible funds, not only will it help keep residents in their funds, it also can lure non-residents to their plans. Calvert has $135 million in assets in the District of Columbia plan it manages and recently gave investors, for the first time, the opportunity to be 100 percent socially responsible in their investment portfolio. An estimated 30 percent of those assets come from residents in other states.
"Why would people outside of D.C. invest in it? They do because of the socially responsible investing," Ross says.
He expects to see more states offering socially responsible investment options, although maybe not to the extent of D.C.'s plans.

Bizzarro Italian Cafe Restaurant Review: Tables, chairs, and an enormous puppet head hang from the ceiling of this eccentric Wallingford café. Chandeliers are cockeyed and the walls are purple brick. But don't let the funky décor fool you. This neighborhood bistro offers inventive and seasonal Italian cuisine including pumpkin-stuffed ravioli and house-made gnocchi tossed with duck and bacon sausage. Elk bolognese is paired with handmade ribbon pasta; braised lamb shank is served with fig demi-glaze; and chanterelle mushrooms, kale and angel hair pasta mingle with a zesty blood orange and lemon sauce. House-made gluten-free pasta is an easy, everyday choice. For dessert, sink a spoon into classic bananas Foster, or try espresso-infused chocolate Bundt cake topped with chocolate-hazelnut gelato. Despite the setting and sense of humor, Bizzarro is geared for adults, not for families with young children. While service is friendly, it can also be uneven.

Being selected to the All-Star team a 'tremendous honor' for Love
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
MINNEAPOLIS -- It still hasn't sunk in for Kevin Love.
Can you blame him? After continuous speculation, hundreds of questions and getting snubbed by the coaches vote, all had looked lost for Love's All-Star chances.
But commissioner David Stern selected him as Yao Ming's injury replacement on Friday, and Love's ticket to Los Angeles was finally punched.
"I don't think it's sunk in yet," Love said before Saturday's 113-100 loss to the Denver Nuggets. "I finally got the paperwork and saw that I was going and it felt pretty good."
You can tell that it is a genuine honor for Love to be named an All-Star and it means a great deal to him. He is something of a student of the game and understands the historical context of having his name attached to the term "All-Star."
A camera crew was on hand to record Love's reaction when coach Kurt Rambis delivered the good news. It was quite the covert operation to keep the news a secret. Rambis, along with two members of the Wolves' PR staff were the only three people that were privy to the information that Love was selected by commissioner David Stern to replace Yao Ming on the Western Conference team.
"When I saw the camera crew in there, I didn't really know what to expect and didn't know what that was all about but when I saw Kurt had to make an announcement, I was thinking 'What is this about?' He mentioned that I made the team and I just kind of looked at him and was stunned and shocked," Love said.
After the immediate congratulations from his teammates and coaching staff, the next phone call for Love was obvious.
"My dad," he said. "I told my dad. It was a pretty emotional phone call. I talked to a few people after that but my dad was the one who put the ball in my hands from day one, so it was definitely him."
Just like the night Love put together a 31 point-31 rebound performance against the Knicks and officially stepped onto the national stage, his cell phone wouldn't stop ringing once word of his selection began to spread during Friday's 111-100 loss to the Toronto Raptors.
"It was a lot (of calls). It was over 100," Love said. "There was a tremendous amount of texts and phone calls. I had to turn my data roaming off so I didn't get the big bill at the end of the month, but I had a bunch of texts and like I said, a tremendous amount of support from family, friends and whoever else texted me."
Among those 100 phone calls and text messages were a few from old friends.
"I did hear from Al (Jefferson)," Love said. "I also heard from (Kevin) McHale. Both said they were very proud, very happy for me and t hey said I should have been there in the first place but told me to 'keep my head up and it'll eventually work out for you.' That was actually the night before and the next they day texted me 'We told you so.'"
Love was selected over Portland's LaMarcus Aldridge and Phoenix's Steve Nash, who praised Love -- while the bitter Aldridge made comments that Love didn't deserve to go because of the Wolves' meager win total.
"Just about everybody put Portland has been gracious," Love said, laughing. "No, I've got a tremendous amount of support. A lot of coaches, a lot of the media, a lot of the fans, but even more so, my teammates and a lot of players around the league have had a tremendous amount of support."
Love becomes the franchises fifth All-Star and first since Kevin Garnett in 2006-07.
"I'm very excited to represent the Wolves," Love said. "I've had a lot of support from the fans, my teammates, the front office, the coaching staff -- everybody involved. I was very humbled by it and I feel truly blessed to be going to the All-Star game."

A Grand Opportunity for scientific advance has been created by the confluence of falling costs of genotyping, the development of statistical methods for genome-wide association studies, and the creation of a substantial repository of genetic material on 16,000 participants in a major multi-disciplinary public-use longitudinal study of aging. The Health and Retirement Study (HRS), begun in 1992, sets the standard for data-sharing and dissemination, with over 1,000 publications by over 1,000 different authors and co-authors. Its rich measurement across domains of health, psychological characteristics, social networks, and economic status and behavior creates an unparalleled body of phenotypic data observed over time that can now be paired with a rich genotypic characterization using the Illumina 1m SNP chip. Valuable as a replication sample for many established GWA studies, this resource, building on a study already widely known in behavioral aging research, will revolutionize research on behavioral science as one of the first large-scale studies to combine genetics with behavioral phenotypes, creating a platform for discovery.
Specifically, this project aims to conduct genotyping through the Center for Inherited Disease Research (CIDR) on approximately 16,000 samples derived from saliva; to make the genotype data available through dbGap with a limited array of phenotypes; to create a process for sharing genotype and broader phenotype data more widely in the research community; and to conduct a limited set of association studies with established phenotypes of cardiovascular health and cognition to demonstrate the potential of the data resource and serve as examples for future studies. The data and data-sharing mechanisms will be integrated into the ongoing HRS at the conclusion of this project.

Does anybody know if Nutella will keep well at room temperature after being opened. I am considering adding it to my backpacking diet and want to keep it in a lightweight container/squeeze tube, but worry about it spoiling in the course of 8-10 day trips.HELP!
I don't think I've ever refrigerated it after opening.
As a veteran Nutella eater, from a very early age, I can assure you that it keeps fine after being opened at room temperature. If it's hot it will get a bit soft, almost runny. We never kept ours in the fridge. The only problem is that it usually does not last long because it's just too good. 10,20,30 days? No problem at all.
Edited by Kat_P on 04/27/2012 20:12:38 MDT.
I keeps very well. Directions don't say to refrigerate. Warning: It will get solid if cold enough rendering it unspreadable. Just like butter.So yummy! I worked with an Italian mechanic that kept it on his nightstand. Have a spoonful in the night and go back to sleep.Can be addictive.
Nutella doesn't need refrigeration, it will do fine in your pack for up to that length. Mmmmm, Nutella.
Thanks Tom for sweetening up the forum :)
I LOVE the stuff. What I did on my last big trip is carry a jar of the stuff that wasn't technically part of any meal. On warm days it would get very soft and runny. Be careful or it will get smudge all over you and your gear! When it was soft I would dip my grenola bars into it and eat them together. When it got cold it would harded up. Then I'd carve out a chunk with my pocket knife and eat it like chocalate.
"Thanks Tom for sweetening up the forum :)";0)
Many thanks for the quick replies, folks. Just what I hoped to hear. Actually, I'm going to use Trader Joes Cocoa Almond Spread, but it's essentially the same thing. The only difference I can see is that it uses almonds instead of hazelnuts and contains 10 more calories/37 gram serving. Both have an excellent carb/fat/protein balance.
" it's essentially the same thing"No, no, no. It's not the same thing. It's good, but not Nutella...
Nutella is 50% SUGARThe next main ingredient is vegetable oil...no refrigeration requiredFranco
Tom,Take a tub of peanut butter and spoon out the center. Then put your nutella in the microwave for a few seconds, just enough so the nutella becomes liquid enough to pour. Then pour the nutella into the center of the well in the peanut butter and take that on your trip.
"Then pour the nutella into the center of the well in the peanut butter and take that on your trip."Ohhhhhhhhh. But I don't have a microwave. :(
"No, no, no. It's not the same thing. It's good, but not Nutella..."Y'got me there, Katharina. It's just more convenient, since there's a TJ less than a mile from home, and I figure it will do for backpacking. Oh, and almonds are my favorite nut. Still, there's a lot to be said for tradition. Maybe I'll alternate back and forth on consecutive trips.....
"Nutella is 50% SUGARThe next main ingredient is vegetable oil..."Right. I was worried about the small amount of protein going bad, but I'm glad to hear it's not an issue.It'll be a great addition to my diet.
Tom, the plastic containers it comes in aren't bad on weight/volume. And the lids are pretty secure.If the amount you're planning to use is more of less than the factory plastic container, increase or decrease it in your menu so you use exactly a factory size. Take the aluminized foil seal off the top of the jar before starting out so you're not carrying it the whole way.Or get through a container with 1-2 days left and use the container (which admittedly doesn't compact well) as a trash container.And +1 on everyone above - ambient temps are just fine.
The jars actually tell you to NOT refrigerate it!!And IMO the Trader Joe's stuff is better, it is less sweet. Nutella is OK, but once you eat the real stuff you realize just how sugary it is. Go visit Big Lots for many other versions a well, all imported.
Nutella also comes in smaller packets; I found some left over in a conference room a few years back. They look like the ones here:http://www.thedieline.com/blog/2010/2/5/bottle-jar-shaped-packets.htmlI opened one only a month or two ago; it probably would have been much improved by heating, but was still edible. (Almost certainly expired by then.)
"Nutella also comes in smaller packets"Yes, I purchased a bunch of those from Minimus.biz to use for a solo trip this summer.--B.G.--

text: It says a great deal about two young artists when they entitle their first album together "Farewell and New Beginning." What Nils Mönkemeyer and Nicholas Rimmer present to their listeners on their GENUIN debut album is not a fast-food product. As prize winners of the German Music Competition, they show that they have fully consummated their farewell from student life; the listener is fortunate to be able to follow them at the outset of their professional careers with this recording. Ludwig van Beethoven's own adaptation of his feather-light, zestful Serenade, Op. 8, Arvo Pärt's meditative "Fratres" and Dmitri Shostakovich's opus ultimum, the Viola Sonata, Op. 149 - all three works offer both musicians limitless possibilities of lending expression to their profound musicality and putting it into a nutshell. They show that they do not forget the present, for all this emphasis on the past and the future, letting it shine through most beautifully.

Fontana's failing frog has fans
September 13, 2012
FONTANA — The once-green giant frog on Highway 67 is the dinner topic of choice at Pie High Pizza.
Nearly everyone in the village agrees the frog sitting on a former mini golf course could use a make over, and in shared memories on Pie High Pizza's Facebook page, frog fans rallied behind cries to "Save the frog!"
Pie High Pizza posted a photo of the frog Aug. 28 and announced that "rumor has it a local real estate agent. ... wants it removed."
At an August Community Development Authority meeting, Jay Hicks, commissioner and realtor with Keefe Real Estate, called the frog an "eyesore."
Village Administrator Kelly Hayden said, during the meeting and in the weeks following, there is little the village can do about the frog because it is on private property.
"Because it's not a house, there's very few zoning regulations about it," Hayden said. "There's nothing we can do about it, and there's nothing the village wants to do about it."
More than 250 comments responded to the Facebook post from Pie High Pizza, many with happy childhood memories about the frog. Not one comment suggested the frog's removal.
John Karabas, owner of Pie High Pizza, said he was surprised by the response.
"I only have about 400 fans," he said. "We got over 280 responses. I usually just get five or six comments."
Because of the amount of interest in the frog, Karabas said he is motivated to find a solution.
"I think some realtor thinks (the frog) is hurting property value," he said. "From what I hear, he's the one that wants to take it down, not the village. From what I understand, the village doesn't care either way right now."
Hayden agreed with Karabas: the village doesn't have an agenda regarding the frog.
"The village has no plans of anything with the frog," Hayden said. "It was never anything to the board or any of the commissions."
Karabas said the village should be involved, though.
"I think they already know (about the response)," he said. "I don't want that thing to disappear one day. It's just a unique little quirky thing in the area that people love."
Through one of the responses to the Facebook post, Karabas said he heard from the grandson of the owner.
"He talked about how he used to paint the thing every summer and doesn't want to see it go," Karabas said. "It's a draw for other people as well. From the restaurant, they'll go down after dinner and take a picture with the frog."
There's more than just talk behind the "Save the Frog" campaign. Karabas said he takes calls from people who want to do something.
"I'm going to try to talk to the owner," he said. "He's been trying to sell the property for a while now."
After that contact is made, Karabas wants to ask approval from the owner to renovate the frog.
"If there's a way to refurbish it, we will," he said. "Obviously, we have to get permission from the owner first. We're not going to go running around on private property."
The frog's fans will find a way to raise money, Karabas said.
"We're talking about doing a fundraiser at the restaurant," he said. "Maybe get some T-shirts, just raise money that way. If it's a money issue, I don't think that's a problem."
Karabas also has potential volunteers in line to help.
"I've talked to some painters and others," he said. "We could probably get some volunteer time out of them."
Tenant goals
Jerald Kehe rents the house on the same lot as the frog. He and another tenant, Valerie Potts, have already started their own efforts to revitalize the frog and the area behind it.
"I've talked to Bob (Hutchinson) and the realtor," he said. "We just trying to figure out the plan right now."
Kehe said they have already discussed their plans with Ron Nyman, zoning administrator.
"We should know within about two months if we can go ahead with the project," Kehe said. "We already have some of the supplies, the concrete to repair the frog. We still need some paint estimates and other items."
Kehe and Potts have only been renting the house for a few months, but Kehe said he grew up in Fontana, and he would be sad to see it taken down.
"We have had some vandalism recently, though," he said. "Kids climbing on the frog. It is structurally sturdy, but it's still not safe."

Russian Journalist: 'Violence Is the Price of Freedom.' Statistics: 'Uh, No.'
A state-sponsored Russian journalist asks a propaganda-tinged question of Press Secretary Robert Gibbs. Gibbs fumbles the answer.
January 17, 2011 - 6:19 am
The world knows these names, even if the boss of the Russian Reuters has forgotten them. Indeed, a whole database had to be created to track the killings of journalists; Russia is of the world's most dangerous countries for reporters.
A just-published study by international risk consultant Maplecroft of 196 countries found that a truly shocking 186 of them were less risky to do business in than Russia. You read that right: Russia is the 10th most dangerous place to do business on this planet. Maplecroft concluded:
Russia's increased risk profile reflects both the heightened activity of militant Islamist separatists in the Northern Caucasus and their ambition to strike targets elsewhere in the country. Russia has suffered a number of devastating terrorist attacks during 2010, including the March 2010 Moscow Metro bombing, which killed 40 people. Such attacks have raised Russia's risk profile in the Terrorism Risk Index and Conflict and Political Violence Index. The country's poor performance is compounded by its "extreme risk" ratings for its business environment, corporate governance and the endemic nature of corruption, which is prevalent throughout all tiers of government.
Russia is rife with domestic terrorism, its entire Caucasus region on the verge of chaos.
Russia is the world's most corrupt major economy according to Transparency International's 2010 Corruption Perceptions Index. In TI's most recent survey, Russia fell to the 154th spot among 178 countries, placing it alongside Tajikistan and Kenya.
But facts like these just don't matter in Vladimir Putin's Russia. Just as in Soviet times, Russia bigwigs feel themselves free to say anything, create any extent of alternate reality, because there is no opposition force powerful enough even to criticize them, much less to unseat them. Like the infamous emperor with his "new clothes," Russia's rulers will go on deluding themselves until, once again, their dishonesty and stupidity brings their nation to collapse.
Sadly, both the president of the United States and his press secretary are ignorant buffoons where Russia is concerned, and neither would be capable of pointing out any of these facts to an ape like Sitov. Gibbs's stammering, ham-handed attempt to defend his country from Sitov's attack was just a reflection of the fact that his boss is doing all he can to facilitate the rise of a neo-Soviet state in Russia, in the hopes of scoring cheap political points he can use during his bid for reelection.
And that, these days, is all too sadly a very American problem.

REST, TEXAS. Rest was eight miles north of Lockhart in northern Caldwell County. A post office operated there from 1880 to 1883. The community was not marked on county highway maps in the 1940s. An old cemetery, located about two miles south of the intersection of U.S. Highway 183 and State Highway 21, was the only evidence of the community in the 1980s. The most recent headstone was dated 1916.

Nuance previews Dragon Dictate 3, adds digital transcription
updated 07:49 pm EDT, Wed September 5, 2012
Improved performance, better editing, 99 percent accuracy
Nuance, the company that licensed its speech dictation technology to Apple to augment Siri and provide built-in dictation for some iOS devices and Mountain Lion, has announced the next major version of its Dragon Dictate software for Mac. The new version 3 for Mac offers a claimed 99 percent accuracy rate, 15 percent better performance, improved editing control and most importantly support for digital recorder transcription -- including recordings from iOS devices.
The addition of digital recorder and iOS device support for audio transcription should prove a significant factor in the new version, supporting files created in various applications that save to standard audio formats such as M4A, WAV, AIFF and MP4. The company already supported Mac control through voice in Mountain Lion, but v3 now adds commands for dictating into Mountain Lion's Notes and Reminders applications. Users of digital voice recorders and iOS devices like iPhones to capture memos or notes will find the transcription ability a major improvement.
Nuance is also offering a free iOS app called Dragon Recorder that will work with the iPhone, iPad and fourth-generation iPod Touch for recording notes, and v3 also now supports a variety of Bluetooth headsets for input as well. The Dragon Recorder app is intended to transcribe a single speaker and not intended to support interviews or multi-voice meetings. The recordings made by the app can be transferred to a Mac or PC and transcribed by the latest Dragon software for each platform.
Unlike the Dictation app for iOS or the built-in Siri Dictation now available on Mountain Lion and the latest iOS devices, the standalone Dragon Dictate 3 does not require an Internet or network connection in order to work. The online connection used in those programs uploaded names from users' contacts lists so that commonly-used proper names would be spelled correctly (no other contact information was uploaded, just the name spellings). The standalone app is able to process this internally, and also features improved correction methodology so that unusual spellings or homonyms can be quickly detected and corrected.
The new version 3 also sports other improvements, like single-DVD installation and a centralized speech engine for all users to save space. While out-of-the-box voice recognition is significantly improved, accuracy can be refined by reading the program a "training story" so that it customizes itself to a user's particular speech patterns. In version 3, a greater range of stories is now offered to accommodate those at different reading levels and abilities.
The program will become available for purchase starting on September 13 (downloadable versions only) and September 24 for boxed orders. New copies will cost $200, with upgrades for previous MacSpeech or Dragon Dicate users costing $150.

As hard as Sarah Sparks searches, there is no instruction manual for having a baby. There's no detailed map explaining how part A attaches to part B. But the main character of Small, Beautifully Moving Parts (1 pm Sunday, Nov. 6), convincingly played by Anna Margaret Hollyman, has replaced most of her human relationships with a technology obsession. So, basically she's afraid she won't relate to her unborn child. It's a justified fear when she makes comments like, "It's actually a pretty good-quality font for a disposable," after watching the word "pregnant" appear on her pregnancy test. With an irresponsible mother who disappeared years ago, and a father who gets his jollies through cyber relationships, it's obvious why Sarah feels disconnected and seeks comfort through predictable, lifeless gadgets. Despite the techie fixations, her character is rather refreshing—smart, skeptical, curious and collected—and her pregnancy forces her to face some harsh realities. Eve and the Fire Horse (11 am Sunday, Nov. 6) brushes on themes of religion, superstition and death with a balance of humor and melancholia. Told from the perspective of Eve Eng, a young and spirited Chinese girl, the film directed by Julia Kwan pushes clashing cultures of Eastern and Western philosophies through uncomfortably impressionable minds. Coming from a 1970s Chinese-Canadian family, Eve and her older sister stray from their Buddhist upbringing and start practicing Catholicism after a string of unfortunate incidents plague their household. The most interesting element is that the protagonist hasn't seen her 10th birthday, adding endearing qualities of naivete, innocence, imagination and curiosity to the clichéd idea of finding faith.
Special NoteMission Theater. Thursday-Friday and Sunday, Nov. 3-4 & 6. Opening night film Hit So Hard: The Life and Near Death Story of Patty Schemel screens at 7 and 9:30 pm Thursday, Nov. 3. See full listings at sirennation.com.

In my pc,when i use jsp to add cookie,i find all cookies
are been treated as session cookies.Even if i give
setMaxAge() as 1 year or 1 month.(30x24x60x60),cookie
addition warning is noticed(due to prompt setting).
But at the same time when i use Search-Windows i do not find
any file of that name.Also i get misleading results everytime i open my browser.At times it behaves as if
cookie exist but at other time it reflects as if cookie has been added now. ?.Is it a bug ? or i am wrong somewhere ?
