Omaha Custom Kitchen Cabinets Remodeling
BTI Construction and Complete Kitchens
have been in business for 15 years. The owners and staff have combined
experience in the Kitchen and Bath remodeling business of over 30
years. BTI and Complete Kitchens are unique because they offer cost
affective alternatives for making your dream kitchen and bathroom become
a reality. Cabinet refacing is one of those alternatives, although we
custom build our own cabinets many of our customers want a lower price
alternative so refacing thier existing cabinets is the answer.
Q & A about cabinet refacing...
What is cabinet refacing?Cabinet
refacing is a process where the cabinet doors, drawer fronts and
cabinet moldings are removed and discarded leaving only the box and
framework. The existing box and framework are then covered with new
wood veneer. New cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and moldings are then put
on the existing cabinets.
How much does it cost to reface my cabinets & do you require payment before the work is completed?As
a general rule, cabinet refacing is approximately half the cost of
new cabinets. We only require 50% of the project cost when the contract
is signed and the balance is due upon completion.
Are subcontractors hired to do the refacing process?No. The refacing process is done by company owners.
Can new cabinets be added to our existing kitchen cabinet layout?Yes. Over 50% of our customers add new cabinets, pantries, or islands to their kitchen layout.
Who installs the sinks, countertops or appliances?BTI Construction or Complete Kitchens does all installations.
What type of guarantee do you offer?All
material and workmanship is guaranteed for one year from date of
completion, with the exception of concealed Euro-hinges, which are
guaranteed for as long as you own your home.
Why do you install all new countertops?Laminating
over existing countertops voids every laminate manufacturer's warranty
and there is a chance the existing laminate could lift and bubble. We
choose to exceed industry standards and install new countertops
made of plastic laminate, solid surface or granite.
What type of wood can we choose?Alder, ash, birch, cherry, hickory, knotty pine, mahogany, maple, oak or poplar
What door styles are available?Flat
panel, raised panel, flat solid wood, and European laminate. Glass can
be placed in the raised panel, flat panel and solid wood doors with or
without mullions.

Playhouse gives 'Limelight' the Tinseltown treatment
"Limelight: The Story of Charlie Chaplin"
When: Tuesdays-Wednesdays, 7:30 p.m.; Thursdays-Fridays, 8 p.m.; Saturdays, 2 and 8 p.m.; Sundays, 2 and 7 p.m., through Oct. 17
Where: La Jolla Playhouse's Mandell Weiss Theatre, UCSD campus
Tickets: $44-$80
Phone: (858) 550-1010
Online: lajollaplayhouse.org
He helped make movies an institution, so maybe it's only right that Charlie Chaplin should get the Tinseltown treatment in a new stage musical.
But the kind of Hollywood gloss that "Limelight: The Story of Charlie Chaplin" puts on the pioneering comic does more to burnish the icon than it does to help an audience understand the man.
The show, which just opened a world-premiere run at La Jolla Playhouse, boasts an inspired Chaplin in Rob McClure, who has the physical-comedy chops to bring Charlie's signature Little Tramp character to vivid life.
The young composer-lyricist-writer Christopher Curtis and his co-writer, the Broadway pro Thomas Meehan ("Hairspray," "Annie"), also come up with some workable motifs to help tie together the sprawling story, which stretches from Chaplin's tough boyhood in Victorian London to his post-Hollywood life in the last half of the 20th century.
But the show, which breezes along on Curtis' melodic if not especially adventurous score (performed in high style by music director/conductor Bryan Perri's orchestra), seems content with confirming much of what we already know about the man beneath the bowler. "Limelight" is better at laying out the troubles that roiled Chaplin's life than it is at revealing, in an authentic way, how they affected him.
There certainly was no shortage of pain along Chaplin's path. His father died a drunk; his mother, Hannah (played in "Limelight" by the sweet-voiced Ashley Brown, who also portrays Chaplin's fourth wife, Oona O'Neill), was a performer who struggled with mental illness.
Charlie and his brother, Sydney, wound up fending for themselves in a workhouse — an episode whose re-creation in "Limelight" is sabotaged by the mustache-twirling villainy of the place's caretakers.
Warren Carlyle and Michael Unger, credited as the show's co-directors (Carlyle took over after Unger parted ways with the production during rehearsals), don't seem eager to push into the darker corners of Chaplin's story. It registers as a bit baffling, then, when their central character suddenly laments (in the song "Vaudeville Dream") that "I wish I could be someone else, someone other than me" — just as all his wishes are beginning to come true.
The directors do have a way with scenes that illuminate the origins of their subject's art. A number called "Look At All The People" is a lyrical evocation of Hannah's lessons for Charlie on how to dream up characters by observing people on the street. Another scene has the young Charlie and Sydney (played with understated appeal by Matthew Scott) toying with a fatuous cop; the way Charlie makes a comic prop of a stolen loaf of bread presages the Tramp's famously versatile cane.
Alexander Dodge's sets, Paul Gallo's lighting and Linda Cho's richly detailed costumes provide satisfying period texture, and the show's 20-plus-member ensemble is solid throughout. Brooke Sunny Moriber is especially effective in a small role as Chaplin's first wife, Mildred, showcasing supple and fluttery vocals. Young Jake Evan Schwenke is poised and strong-voiced as the childhood version of Charlie. (It's also heartening to see the ace San Diego actors Kurt Norby and Courtney Corey back on the Playhouse stage, each in multiple roles.)
Given the scope of Chaplin's life and work, it's inevitable that things would get left out of "Limelight," although it's still a surprise that the show (which salts in a few film clips and presents the striking image of Charlie stepping into the screen) all but omits mention of such classics as "City Lights," "The Gold Rush" and "Modern Times."

Criminal Law Questions? Ask a Criminal Lawyer.
Hello and thank you for your question.Arizona provides a process to set aside a conviction, also referred to as expungement. The relevant section is ARS 13-907 which may be found here http://www.azleg.state.az.us/ars/13/00907.htmFollowing expungement, your friend would be able to apply for employment without revealing the conviction and it would not show up in a criminal record check. However, one of the exceptions to eligibility is that the crime involved a dangerous offense which may include the use or exhibition of a deadly weapon. From your description, your friend might not qualify for expungement, but it might be worth a try, because the pardon process is quite a bit more involved and rarely granted. An outline and description of the pardon process in Arizona can be found here http://www.pardon411.com/wiki/Arizona_Pardon_Information The information includes how to obtain the pardon application from the Arizona Board of Executive Clemency and the supporting requirements. The pardon application still does not appear to be available online, but the Arizona Board of Executive Clemency website may be found here http://www.azboec.gov/ Please feel free to ask any follow-up questions.

Delegates reinforce their skills by using these new leadership tools in many activities which enhance their ability.

After eight years of Republican rule, Barack Obama now turns to the task of building a Democratic administration to lead the country out of war and into the financial recovery that he promised.
The president-elect plans to spend the rest of the week at home in Chicago, reviewing the hiring decisions he'll have to make in the next two-and-a-half months.
Campaign advisers have already presented him with names to review for key positions, but say he wasn't focused on filling the jobs before winning the election.
He acknowledged his joyful backers in a victory speech in Chicago's Grant Park, and he also spoke to those who voted against him, saying he hears their voices, needs their help and will be their president, too.
Obama says America faces grave challenges and the "climb will be steep."

Cairn India has been ranked as the fastest growing energy company in the world while Reliance Industries is the top ranked Indian energy firm in the global ranking.
With a compound growth rate of 121 per cent in past three years, Cairn was ranked the fastest growing energy company in the world ahead of Cnooc of China, Valero Energy of the US, PetroChina, Essar Energy and Russian Rosneft, according to the Platts Top 250 Global Energy Company Rankings.
Platts said Cairn, an independent oil and gas exploration and production company whose main asset are the prolofic Rajasthan oilfields, has given 25 per cent return on invested capital and is for the second year in running the world's fastest growing energy firm.
Releasing the Top 250 Global Energy Company Rankings for 2013, RIL has toppled state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corp (ONGC) to become the top Indian firm in a global ranking.

The Platts Top 250 Global Energy Company Rankings, now in its 12th year, is based on data compiled and maintained by S&P Capital IQ, which, like Platts, is a part of The McGraw-Hill Companies.
The 2013 rankings reflect fiscal 2012 financial performance in four key areas: asset value, revenue, profit and return on invested capital (ROIC).
Coal India improved its ranking from 48 to 43 while power utility NTPC went to 49th rank from 62 in 2012.
Oil refining and marketing company Indian Oil Corp improved two positions to rank at number 80 while gas utility GAIL India moved up four notches to 105. Cairn India, which held the 121st position, moved up to 109 this year.

Tracy Mackenna (Scottish, born 1963)
Tracy Mackenna was born in Oban and studied sculpture at Glasgow School of Art from 1981-86. After living and working in Hungary she returned to Glasgow, where she co-founded the Glasgow Sculpture Studios. Mackenna's work of the mid to late 1980s used everyday waste materials such as newspaper and cardboard, as well as scrap and manufactured metals like copper, zinc and steel. These were assembled into self-contained sculptural objects. Mackenna later progressed to producing installations, often using text on the wall and floor. Since 1997 she has been working collaboratively with the artist Edwin Janssen and no longer produces her own, individual work.

Types of Gifts
The most common type of gift—and the easiest way for the monks to use your gift immediately—is an unrestricted outright gift. For donors in the US, we have established a 501 (c) (3) tax exempt organization called the Monks of NorciaFoundation. Its exclusive purpose is to support the monastery. If you are able to help us and are in the United States, please address your check to:
P.O. Box 3748

- The St. Bede Scholarship Fund (for monastic study and priestly formation)
- The Filial Piety Fund (for travel expenses for home visits)
- The Development Fund (for support of the Development Office and activities)
- The Nutritional and Health Management Fund (for support of the monastic kitchen, health insurance, and medicine)
- The Project (for support of the new Abbey, San Benedetto fuori le mura)

The Monastery is now accepting credit or debit card donations. Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover cards are accepted. The easiest way to make this donation is to contact our Director of Development in the USA at +1 (515) 974-4253.
Planned Giving
Another way to assist the monastery is by making a planned gift. The easiest way to make a planned gift would be to include our name in your will or in your trust. You could also name us as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy or a retirement plan. For those who live in the US, the name to include is "Monks of Norcia Foundation"; elsewhere, please include our Italian name: "Monastero di San Benedetto".
Gifts of stocks and bonds are great tax incentives for donors. For information on how to make this kind of charitable gift to the Monks of Norcia, please contact our Development Office.

Paul Lambert and Fabian Delph were on hand to give their verdicts following the triumph.

Lambert hailed a heroic display from his players, insisting they "did us proud" against Roberto Mancini's men.
In particular, he was full of praise for two-goal hero Agbonlahor.
There was also a glowing tribute to the travelling claret and blue faithful from the Villa manager.
Delph couldn't hide his joy as he faced the cameras following the victory.
The midfield ace felt Villa were good value for their place in round four, insisting they showed no fear.
He called on his team-mates to take the momentum from the win over City into Sunday's top-flight encounter against West Brom.

Judy Greer Also In The Mix
Now that the forever gestating comedy "Burt Wonderstone" has its two leads in Steve Carell and Jim Carrey, the hunt is on to find a beautiful woman to star opposite these two guys, and the shortlist revealed by Deadline is pretty formidable.
Olivia Wilde, Michelle Monaghan, Judy Greer, Sarah Silverman and Jessica Biel are in the hunt for the unspecified role which we hope will be more than just eye candy in the film. Wilde -- who is shortlisted for everything -- showed she had some decent comedy chops in this summer's "The Change-Up," while Biel brought estrogen with her body to decent effect in "I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry." Monaghan is less convincing as a female lead in a comedy, and her apperances in laffers thus far like "Due Date" and "The Heartbreak Kid" have been forgettable. Silverman's credentials speak for themselves, but our choice is the beautiful and very, very funny Greer. She's run the gamut of drama to horror and of course comedy, but as you'll recall she played the memorably breast-baring Kitty Sanchez on "Arrested Development," and we think she'd be great to go toe-to-toe with Carell and Carrey.
With a fresh rewrite by none other than Jason Reitman, the film, originally penned by "Horrible Bosses" writers John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, revolves around a fading traditional magician who ditches his longtime partner and is upstaged by a hipper illusionist, forcing him to regain his love for magic. Again no word yet on the female role, but it seems the filmmakers aren't necessarily looking for star power (though they wouldn't mind it if they got it). While no exact production date has been revealed, we'd wager that with this thing casting up, "Burt Wonderstone" will probably roll by the end of this year or first thing in 2012.

From the Super Mario Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search
Retrieved from "http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Rollodillo&oldid=1879881"
Rollodillo is an armadillo-like boss in Super Mario Galaxy 2. It is fought in the Boulder Bowl Galaxy in the mission Rock and Rollodillo.
Rollodillo is a large beast with a reptilian-like face and mammalian body which is covered in thick blue fur. It has a hide made of pieces of rock which covers the majority of its body minus its rear, face, and underbelly.
It attacks mainly by rolling around the planetoid in a fashion similar to a boulder. Mario can only fight Rollodillo while Rock Mario. There are a total of two rounds. When Rollodillo gets dizzy and stops rolling, Mario needs to transform into a boulder and ram into its weak spot, its rear; a Spin Attack is rendered useless against this boss. Mario will need to hit Rollodillo's rear four times to defeat him. After this, the boss explodes and grant Mario the Power Star.

DHL remains the strongest international logistics player in China
August 21, 2012
Deutsche Post DHL recently unveiled details about the company's plans to build on its significant presence in the Asia-Pacific region and to further expand its competitive position in China.
While Asia-Pacific already accounts for almost 20 percent of the company's DHL revenues today, CEO Frank Appel revealed the Group's growth target for the next five years: By 2017, revenues generated in Asia-Pacific should contribute around one-third to the DHL top line.
"We are well positioned for prolonged profitable growth across the region," said Appel.
Spokesmen noted that market position is based on major investments. With more than thirty years of experience in the market, DHL is the number one logistics brand in Asia. Its Express, Global Forwarding and Supply Chain divisions are the market leader in the international express, air freight and contract logistics businesses both in the region as a whole and in many of its most dynamic economies, including China. In combination with its strong ocean freight services, the company is well placed to capitalize on the expected acceleration of transport and trade of products within Asia, as well as between Asia and other emerging markets in the Middle East, Africa and Latin America.
The supply chain consultancy, Armstrong & Associates, ranks the company top among the leading 25 global freight forwarders this year.
The company's market position is based on major investments in its infrastructure and services. Overall, DHL has invested more than $2.5 billion in Asia over the last couple of years in the development of products and services tailored to the needs of shippers.
Going forward, all DHL divisions will further invest in their leading service capabilities to underpin their dominant role in the centre of gravity for global trade: The upcoming opening of the DHL Express North Asia Hub at Shanghai Pudong International Airport creates the biggest express hub in Asia.
Representing an investment of $175 million, it will enable DHL to provide greater flexibility and even more reliability to its customers with guaranteed time-definite delivery to major cities in northern Asia and beyond. In addition, DHL Supply Chain will shortly open its state-of-the art MegaHub in Hong Kong, which will further enhance the company's operational efficiency and its customers' business flexibility by bundling four warehouses into one.
Lastly, DHL Global Forwarding will soon also inaugurate a new operations hub in the region as part of its efforts to further reduce transit times and save costs by consolidating shipments from customers in various Asian markets before exporting them to the rest of the world.

The growing trend of Radio Jockeys (RJs) mimicking Parliamentarians and their "double-meaning" talks is a serious issue as far as the Narendra Modi govt is concerned.
The issue of radio jockeys (Rjs) making fun of MPs and cracking crude jokes was raised in the Rajya Sabha today with the government saying content aired on radio channels was being monitored and promised action to curb such practice.
During Question Hour, actress-turn-politician Jaya Bachchan sought to know whether if I&B Minister Prakash Javadekar was aware of language used and jokes made by RJs.
"They are absolutely objectionable, very bad and the latest thing is that they have started giving news of Parliament and they mimic a lot of MPs who have spoken. So, are you going to do something about it because this is really not palatable," she asked.
Javadekar termed the issue as "serious" and informed the House that there were complaints of private channel RJs using "double meaning" talks.
"... Regarding commentary, what she (Bachchan) has said is absolutely serious and and we have an Electronic Media Monitoring Centre, which is monitoring this. We are contemplating how to rectify this rising trend after monitoring the reports at the earliest," he said.
To a query by Derek O'Brien (TMC) on the issue of Rjs being asked to retire after attaining the age of 35 years, Javadekar said the order was stayed.
"... As soon as it came to my knowledge that some Rjs, particularly, in Kolkata are asked to retire voluntarily at 35, we have already held it up, and we have stayed it," he said, adding RJs will not be removed on basis of age.
Recalling Ameen Sayani, whose voice enthralled listeners of All India Radio for decades, Javadekar said, "Voice should be vigorous and pleasant, it has nothing to do with age."
The minister also said government was thinking to allow, AIR news clips on private FM radio channels.
Meanwhile, noted lyricist and Rajya Sabha MP Javed Akhtar said one should not be extra sensitive as long as it was not vulgar.
Speaking outside Parliament here, he, however, said that things should also not cross the level of decency.
Asked for his reaction on RJs mimicking Parliamentarians, he said, "As long as it is not vulgar, it is not crude, it is not insulting anybody, one should not be extra sensitive about this thing. If it is funny, if it is in good humour then one should laugh it off."

How CNBC And Fox News Misinformed Viewers About The Dangers Of The Debt Ceiling
House Republicans recently agreed to raise the debt ceiling, preventing a self-inflicted economic calamity. Experts agree that failure to raise the debt ceiling would have catastrophic consequences for the U.S. economy. The debt ceiling debacle of 2010, during which the U.S. did not actually breach the debt limit and default, will wind up costing U.S. taxpayers $18.9 billion and one million jobs.
But television watchers going to CNBC, Fox News, or Fox Business for their news may not know just how dangerous a weaponized debt ceiling really is. As Media Matters' Alan Pyke showed, those networks were very likely to discuss the debt ceiling without noting the negative effects that breaching it might have:
Only 100 segments out of 273 mentioned the negative economic effects of failing to raise — or threat of failing to raise — the debt ceiling. MSNBC most frequently mentioned negative effects in 41 of 68 segments (60 percent), while CNN mentioned them in 13 of 23 segments (57 percent). The remaining networks lagged far behind, with CNBC, Fox Business, and Fox News mentioning macroeconomic consequences in 26, 23, and 25 percent of segments, respectively.
The debt ceiling, of course, hasn't gone away, and will need to be dealt with again in May. Economists largely agree that the debt ceiling should be abolished.

It's been a frustrating season for Jets fans. A confounded coach and the league's worst starting netminder are all that stood in the way of hosting playoff hockey at the MTS Centre. Again. The lines were maddening, the AHL call-ups confusing, and the injuries seemingly ill-timed. And James Wright never did get that first goal of the year. Aww shucks.
But it's always hard to say goodbye to another season of Jets hockey. Just five months until training camp.

It's the end of one personal journey but just the beginning of another. Thirteen students and their families gathered in the Freeport High School cafeteria to celebrate. They will all be heading off to college in the fall and all are doing it because they decided to challenge themselves. These students' academic careers were enhanced through a program called AVID, which stands for advancement via individual determination.
"The program has allowed students in the middle academically to enroll in the most rigorous courses that we offer," says AVID District Director George Buss.
Freeport was the first school district in Illinois to offer the program. Students can start in the program as early as the seventh grade.
"These students step out of the crowd and they say 'We're going to try this program. We want to go to college but we're not sure what we need to do to get there'," Buss says.
These college-bound students say it has had a profound impact on their young lives.
"If it wasn't for AVID, i probably would never be here, not even, all my grades would probably be all F's. Its all AVID," says Jairo Gonzalez, an AVID graduate.
"I just wanted to experience something that was something new and would benefit me in the next year of college. I took a chance and it worked out fine," says AVID graduate Josh Bessert.
"I really didn't know but then they said 'well you like this and you like this so maybe you should try this', so AVID just put it all together, I'm like 'ok, I'll do the pharmacy thing,'" AVID graduate Chelsea Johnson says.
Freeport currently has one hundred and fifty students enrolled in the program. They initiated the program back in 1997. It focuses on four main areas; reading, writing, collaboration, and inquiry.

Indianapolis, Ind. - After averaging a double-double while helping the Bulldogs to a pair of league victories last weekend, junior forward Susan Lester was named the Horizon League's Women's Basketball Player of the Week. The league office made the announcement on Monday (Feb. 16).
A native of Anderson, Ind., Lester averaged a double-double with 19.0 points per game and a team-best 10.0 rebounds in two games last weekend.
She finished with 20 points on 8-for-17 shooting and a game-high 13 rebounds at UIC for her second double-double of the year and added two assists and a team-high three steals. Two days later at Loyola, she finished tied for the team-lead with 18 points on 6-for-9 shooting (.667) and added a game-best seven rebounds in a win over the Ramblers.
Her 12.5 points per game in league contests leads the team while her 6.6 rebounds in conference games are second on the squad.
"Susan's play of late is a big reason why we were able to get two road wins," head coach Beth Couture said. "She had two outstanding games on both ends of the floor, and her energy level was tremendous all weekend."
The award is Lester's second weekly honor of the year and is the third for the Bulldogs this season. She was named the league's player of the week on Jan. 26, while senior center Lade Akande earned the award on Dec. 8.
Butler returns to action on Saturday (Feb. 21) afternoon when they take on Valparaiso beginning at 2:35 p.m. ET (1:35 p.m. CT) at the Athletics-Recreation Center in Valparaiso, Ind.

Boy Logro
From being a Chinese restaurant houseboy, cooking for the King of Oman to putting up his own culinary school, see how else this chef can surprise you.
This TV chef's first job was as a houseboy at a Chinese restaurant in downtown Manila. He would later work in Europe and America, eventually becoming the personal chef of the King of Oman. Back in Manila, he worked at the Manila Diamond Hotel for 11 years before putting up his own culinary school, CLICKS.
����������� "Ako po'y hindi nakapag-aral. Graduate ako ng UE: University of Experience," says Chef Boy.
Where do you do your grocery shopping?
Normally, kapag supermarket, sa SM Dasmari�as kasi malapit ako doon. Andun lahat. Minsan kasi sa ibang [supermarket], may mga kulang lalo na sa Japanese ingredients. Sa SM, complete talaga.
How would you describe your cooking style?
It's based on my experience cooking in Europe, parang pinagsama-sama ko. I've been cooking for 40 years. I started when I was 16—from houseboy to steward to cook helper to chef.
Did you ever encounter any famous personalities in your stint abroad?
I served Queen Elizabeth and Princess Diana. Maganda talaga. Sabi niya, "I love my poached egg and a little salad." Si Queen Elizabeth, "I love roasted lamb rack with mint jelly sauce."
Did you study as you went along?
Ay, napakagandang tanong! Ako po'y hindi nakapag-aral. Graduate ako ng UE: University of Experience.
What do you like cooking at home?
Sa house, native food like labwa. Mayroon siyang sari-saring gulay—kamote, gabi, saging, okra, saluyot. Ilaga mo lang. Tapos 'yung galunggong, tanggalan mo ng buto at isama mo. Healthy! Kaya siguro sa edad ko, maliksi pa akong kumilos. Gusto ko ganun kasi tabing-dagat ako pinanganak. Wala naman kaming manok noong araw eh. Gulay, isda, yun lang.
What's always in your refrigerator?
May atsara ako doon. Galunggong at salmon—madali kasing lutuin. Kapag may bisita ako,� almon ang niluluto ko with lemon butter sauce. Kapag kami-kami lang, galunggong lang, okay na. Kasi may malunggay akong tanim sa bahay. Monggo, talbos, ganun lang ka-simple.
What is your favorite ingredient?
When I cook, there is always wine involved, white wine, and brandy. Kaya sa show ko, laging may lumiliyab. That's how you enhance the flavor of your food. Puwede nga lambanog. Hindi lang tayo sanay sa ating kultura na pagsinabing adobo, wala na. Puwede naming dagdagan ng lambanog o tuba. In China, without Chinese wine, they cannot cook lapu-lapu for Steamed Lapu-lapu. In Japan, there is sake. Kapag binabad ang isda, pork, or beef, lalambot 'yun at sasarap kasi fermented sa alak.

Electronic music pioneer DJ Shadow plays Republic December 13 as part of its monthly Bassik series, and OffBeat has a pair of tickets up for grabs. Arguably the most influential underground music figure of the last 20+ years, Shadow first rose to prominence for his groundbreaking 1996 debut Endtroducing, a mind-trip constructed solely around hip-hop and soul jazz samples that, in 2001, Guinness World Records would dub the "First Completely Sampled Album." While never one to retread the past, DJ Shadow's latest release, Total Breakdown: Hidden Transmissions From The MPC Era, 1992-1996, exhumes sounds from a day gone by — or perhaps the space-time of tomorrow. Here's his latest video "Listen," which features vocals from another unheralded icon, Terry Reid.

As a dog owner, you may have spent lots of time searching for exciting foods for your dog. If you are lucky enough, your dog likes most of the foods. But, have you ever questioned yourself if the food you serve your dog is healthy and balanced enough for its fitness? Well, in today's writing, I'll share some important tips so that you can prepare balanced dog foods right at your place. You can either serve the homemade foods to your pets or can serve these simultaneously along with the bought ones. So, check the following dog food tips carefully.
- Balance the Diet: Can you guess why vets discourage making dog foods at home? Yes, you have speculated it right. In most of the cases, homemade dog foods do not contain adequate and well balanced diets. So, when making foods for your dog, ensure that each and every nutritious ingredients are present in the raw foods. Remember that, unbalanced foods often cause deficiencies to your dogs, especially the puppies. So, double check if the food has enough calcium, other minerals, protein and vitamins.
- Select Meat: Dogs are undoubtedly carnivorous animals. They live on meats. This is the reason why the main items in dog foods are meats. So, when preparing the dog food, carefully choose usable meats. You can choose beef, mutton, buffalo, chickens or any other meat categories. Know Better Pet Food [1] suggests that the ratio of fat should not be more than 15/20%. You can occasionally feed fish, but it should never be the main dish.
- Choose Vegetables: Balanced dog foods should contain at least 25% vegetables. But, pet specialists suggest that it would be better if the vegetables are slightly steamed. However, almost all of the vitamins and minerals should come from the vegetables. So, you need to pay special attentions in choosing the right vegetables.
- Natural Fibers: The body functionality of your dog is not very different from human digestion systems. Therefore, foods that contain natural Fibers should be given equal emphasis as that for the human body. [2]
- Stop Feeding Carbohydrates: Carbohydrates are necessary for the human body. But, if you feed your dog foods that contain Carbohydrates, it will start growing fat. Carbohydrates also cause some diseases like inflammatory bowel disease, allergies and kidney disease. So, avoid carbohydrates for a better health of your dog.
Finally, homemade foods for your dog can be great if you can blend in all the necessary elements. So, when preparing foods for your dog, keep the tips in your mind.

Arbor Springs Water Co
1440 Plymouth Rd.
Ann Arbor, MI 48105
Business Overview & Sustainable Practices
Arbor Springs Water has been a part of the Ann Arbor Community since, providing bottled water and cooler service throughout Southeast Michigan. The companys primary product is bottled water, sold in 5 gallon Lexan and PET plastic bottles. These bottles can be cleaned and reused up to 100 times. When the bottles chip or break, they are sent for recycling. Arbor Springs Water created a special bottle cutter that cuts the bottles in half, allowing them to send the same amount of bottles to the recycler in fewer truckloads. Fewer truckloads of bottles means less gasoline consumed, less air emissions, and less wear and tear on the roads. The company has recently installed a chipper to even further enhance this recycling. Along with its comprehensive bottle recycling program, the company does its accounting on-line, reducing paperwork by 50 percent. They also close the recycling loop by purchasing office furniture that has been remanufactured by a local rebuilder. Arbor Springs Water Company recently started using a reverse osmosis water treatment unit, which is eliminating the use of sodium hydroxide and muriatic acid. This will make their cleansing process considerably less toxic leading to a cleaner environment and a safer work place. 50% of Arbor Springs delivery trucks are now diesels as the company replaces gas vehicles. The increase in mileage per gallon is almost 100%. Arbor Springs Water has written a formal statement of their practices and has designated one employee to oversee waste reduction. In addition, they save energy by using fluorescent bulbs and ENERGY STAR rated office equipment, they place external lights on timers and use night setbacks when the building is unoccupied.


text: Hey y'all. I'm Chris, hailing most recently from the Oklahoma City area, formally Maine. Did a lot of road riding during my high school years, fading down to some mountain riding while stationed in Guam and Montana, and then stopped altoghether. After coming to the realization that some of my happiest moments have been on the saddle, I'm back into a decent road bike. I love every minute of it. The only frustration is that I'm still trying to climb like I was a teenager. It seems my bike has gotten lighter, but I haven't. Never did group rides in the past, but did a charity ride the other weekend. I'm hooked! I plan on doing every one I can find the rest of the season, deployments permitting.

With awards season in full swing, a batch 2013 films continued to provide the 2014 specialty box office with a healthy flow of filmgoers.
The Weinstein Company's "August: Osage County" was the most impressive of the lot, expanding from 5 to 905 theaters and grossing $7,315,000 for an impressive per-theater-average of $8,083. The Tracy Letts adaptation features an ensemble that includes Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Chris Cooper, Benedict Cumberbatch, Juliette Lewis, Margo Martindale, Dermot Mulroney and Ewan McGregor (Streep and Roberts have both received Golden Globe and SAG nominations for their parts). The film's total stands at $7,860,385.
Charles Dickens adaptation "The Invisible Woman," meanwhile, went from 4 to 9 theaters in weekend three. The Sony Pictures Classics-released film -- which stars Ralph Fiennes (who also directed), Felicity Jones and Kristin Scott Thomas -- took in $48,160 for a $5,351 average and a new total $174,284.
Sony Classics also expanded Asghar Farhadi's "The Past" from 5 to 17 theaters and saw the film's weekend gross jump to $86,613. The film -- snubbed from the Oscars in the foreign film category - averaged $5,095 as a result, totaling $257,065 so far.
In its seventh weekend, Justin Chadwick's Golden Globe nominated biopic of the late Nelson Mandela "Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom" dropped from 1,010 theaters to 363 and the result was a $265,000 gross, averaging $730. That's down significantly from last weekend (75%), though The Weinstein Company release has now taken in a very respectable $7,750,023.
The Weinsteins' eight week old "Philomena" held steady in 607 theaters and dropped just 6%. The film -- which stars Golden Globe nominees Judi Dench and Steve Coogan in the real life story of a woman searching for the son that was taken from her decades earlier -- grossed $1,360,000, averaging $2,241. That made for a very impressive new total of $21,916,000. The film could easily approach $30 million with a boost from Oscar nominations.
Joel & Ethan Coen's Oscar contender "Inside Llewyn Davis" expanded significantly this weekend, going from 156 to 729 theaters in its sixth weekend. That made for a $1,876,000 gross and a $2,573 average. The CBS Films release has now grossed $9,309,126.
Eight week old "Nebraska," which similarly follows intergenerational lead characters on a road trip of discovery, also jumped despite losing screenings. The film -- starring Bruce Dern and Will Forte -- rose from 240 to 521 theaters, taking in $820,000 for a $1,574 average. The $12 million-budgeted, Alexander Payne-directed film has now grossed $8,149,654..
Finally, Italy's Oscar contender for best foreign language film hit $1 million Stateside. "The Great Beauty" -- released in the US via Janus Films -- grossed $71,950 from 38 theaters to average $1,893 and take its total to $1,080,196. If the film ends up getting an Oscar nod, its in a nice position to take that further.

Mad Men's Teyonah Parris on Why Her Natural Hair Made Her Cry (VIDEO)
The Mad Men fans out there know that while Don Draper (Jon Hamm) may appear to rule the roost, there's another Dawn in town who really makes sure life runs on schedule. We are, of course, talking about Dawn Chambers, the ad man's always reliable secretary.
With the last installment of the AMC hit just about to draw to a close, the actress who lends Dawn her characteristic spunk, Teyonah Parris, stopped by the HuffPost Live lounge. There, she talked about what it's like as an African American woman breaking into Hollywood.
"You were one of the few people who walked the red carpet with natural hair," the HuffPost Live hosts tells Teyonah. "You, obviously, have a team of people who will support and love you for that … but what's it like to deal with that in a place that doesn't naturally value black people, African features, all that stuff?"
Teyonah admits that it hasn't always been easy, saying she "not consciously" tried to mimic the non-natural standard she'd always seen growing up. But eventually, she had an "aha" moment where she realized her natural hair had the potential to be as beautiful as she'd always dreamed. What changed? Watch the video above to hear Teyonah's story and why she burst into tears the first time she wore her natural hair outside.

Update on MariaThis is 32-year-old Maria. She is married and has two children, aged 14 and 11 years.
In 2000, Maria established her frozen fish business. She began her business because she wanted to help her family and husband in the running of the home. Her business is located in outskirts of the city and her main customers are women. Working seven days per week and 12 hours per day, she earns about SLL 1,200,000 every month from this business.
Maria would like a loan in the amount of SLL 4,000,000. She requires a loan in order to purchase frozen fish for resale. She hopes that this loan will automatically increase her profit because of the increase in stock level.
In the future, Maria plans to become supplier of fish to the provinces like Bo, Kenema, Makeni, Lunsar, etc. She thanks you for your support.

Additional Information
About the Association for Rural DevelopmentThe Association for Rural Development (ARD) is one of the leading microfinance institutions in Sierra Leone. Established in 1989, ARD has offered individual and group loans to support small-scale businesses across the country for two decades. You can learn more about ARD on its partner profile page, support the organization and its staff by joining the ARD lending team, or lend to another one of its borrowers currently raising funds on Kiva.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

Washington wine blends (reds and whites) took center stage at the 2nd annual BLEND Seattle event on September 18, 2011. Held at Bell Harbor International Conference Center on the city's waterfront, the event featured 40 or so Washington wineries pouring more than 130 different wines, all blends.
The Bubble Lounge was a new addition to BLEND this year, featuring sparkling wines from Washington wineries including Treveri Cellars, Cave B, Domaine Ste. Michelle, Waterbrook, Mountain Dome and a selection of sparkling wines from France, Italy and Spain courtesy of Wine World Warehouse of Seattle, the largest wine store in the Northwest.
Also courtesy of Wine World were four different tasting tables spread throughout the event that featured international blends from France, Italy, Spain and Argentina. These tables were quite popular with event goers and contributed a fun, global dimension to the well-rounded event.
"In order for people to make a deeper connection with wine and food, it is critical that events offer a key educational component or focus. The art of blending isn't something the general public understands…yet. Showcasing only wine blends and incorporating blending stations where winemakers can pour the components of a blend helps to drive that education and get people to that 'aha' moment with wine – that is what BLEND Seattle is all about," said Jamie Peha, the event producer and owner of Peha Promotions.
Guests at the event were given the opportunity to vote for their favorite wine blends of the night. Tallied results were as follows:
2011 People's Choice Awards
1st Place – 2007 Terra Blanca ONYX
2nd Place (TIE) – 2008 Cave B Cuvee du Soleil
2nd Place (TIE) – 2007 Col Solare Red Blend
A panel of nine judges, composed of wine bloggers, freelance writers, and sommeliers, voted amongst themselves for the 2011 Blend Awards, awarding honors to their top three white and red blends picks of the day:
Judges White Blends:
1st Place – 2009 McCrea Cellars Sirocco Blanc
2nd Place – 2009 Brian Carter Cellars Oriana
3rd Place – 2010 Naches Heights Vineyard Can Can
Judges Red Blends:
1st Place – 2006 Woodward Canyon Estate Reserve
2nd Place (TIE) – 2008 Robert Ramsey Cellars Mason's Red
2nd Place (TIE) – 2008 Sparkman Cellars Stella Mae
Savory food bites showcasing the talent of their chefs were provided by the following resorts: Salish Lodge & Spa, The Inn at Langley, Cave B Inn & Spa, Kenwood Inn and Spa. Seattle's The Cheese Cellar kept people coming back with a selection of artisan cheeses.
Blend Seattle is collaboration between Columbia Hospitality, Inc and Peha Promotions, bringing wine and food to the forefront through festivity and education. To access the list of wines and the menu provided at Blend Seattle please visit www.columbiablend.com.
