I finally bought Lady Gaga's album! It is so much fun and makes me get up and dance every single time I hear a song.
It's really hard keeping up with my favourite shows, as I am constantly travelling. Friends often buy me DVD sets of my favourite shows. I love "Entourage" and I think Jeremy Piven is phenomenal. My little brother texts me updates when I'm on the road and miss a show.
I recently watched "The Graduate" for the first time. I can't believe it took me this long . I also saw "An Affair To Remember" with Cary Grant, and was crying my eyes out by the end. What a beautiful movie. My brother also dragged me to see "Transformers 2" over the summer.
I am currently reading John Grisham's "The Broker". I am determined to get myself a Kindle, an electronic book, which will reduce the number of books I carry on long-haul flights.

Crytek Istanbul Opens Its Doors - News
by William D'Angelo, posted on 18 January 2013 / 2,926 ViewsCrytek has announced that it has opened up a new studio in Istanbul, called Crytek Istanbul. This is Crytek's eighth studios. The new studio will focus on Crytek's free-to-play games Warface and GFACE. The studio will also work on growing the CryEngine business in Turkey, the Middle East and North Africa.
"Crytek Istanbul not only opens the door to further growth, it represents reinvestment in a country that has special bonds for us as a company," said Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli. "We have had ambitions and aspirations to invest in Turkey for a long time and believe the moment is now right to bring those plans to fruition. From day one, we will work hard to make a positive impact in Turkey and further solidify Crytek's reputation for quality and innovation."
"Crytek's decision to establish a permanent base in Turkey underscores the company's commitment to leading the way into promising new territories," said the Managing Director of Crytek Istanbul Serhat Bekemir. "As a growing video game market, Turkey is the perfect place for Crytek to expand its profile and establish bonds with a whole new set of enthusiastic players, developers and business partners."
This is the second studio Crytek has opened in six months. Crytek Shanghai was opened in August 2012. The studio is working on improving the CryEngine, as well as improving relations with its customers and potential customers in Asia.
Crytek was founded in 1999 by three Turkish brothers, Avni, Cevat and Faruk Yerli.

Showbiz Sandbox 111: Can Paste Magazine Ignite A Digital Publishing Revolution?
July 11, 2011
Less than a year after ceasing publication of their print edition Paste Magazine has revived itself in a new digital format. The popular music and culture magazine shunned the traditional print medium and relaunched as a weekly web periodical chock full of long-form features, downloadable music and multimedia content. Editor Josh Jackson reveals how the new Paste mPlayer was designed from the ground up as a next-generation publication. Is Paste giving us a glimpse into the future of magazines?
Soap operas are in the midst of their own transformation. Rather than canceling "All My Children" and "One Life To Live" as planned, ABC has struck a deal to keep the shows alive on the Internet. Will loyal viewers migrate online to keep up with their favorite soaps?
The music industry has also received some good news lately. Not only will the hotly anticipated arrival of Spotify in the United States soon be a reality, but Nielsen Soundscan is reporting that music sales are up slightly this year. Does all of this mean the music business is poised to make a comeback?
We answer all these questions and more while providing analysis of the week's top entertainment headlines, including Paramount's plans for an animation studio, Rupert Murdoch's fight to gain control of BSkyB and why your Internet service provider may be in touch about all that pirated content you've been downloading.

The Elantra GT appeals to those who want a hatchback that's slightly larger and more substantial than subcompact models (like Hyundai's Accent) that's more premium-feeling, yet still budget-minded. The new GT also carves out a sportier driving experience compared to the sedan, and it competes with the Ford Focus, Mazda3, Toyota Matrix and Volkswagen Golf, among others. According to Hyundai it has more passenger and cargo space than any of those models. It's also the first Elantra model with a driver knee airbag.
The Elantra GT is a new 5-door compact hatchback model, and a new body style, that's very closely based on the Hyundai Elantra sedan. But compared to the sedan, it emphasizes a sportier look and sportier driving experience, with a somewhat higher price but also more standard features. It's also the first Elantra model, and the first model in the Hyundai lineup, to allow the driver to select steering firmness.
The new 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT comes in one 5-door hatchback body style that looks much like the Elantra sedan in the front, but quite different from behind. With a completely different roofline, as well as crisp lines that wrap around the back of the car, as well as a prominent rear spoiler, this model carries itself with the sophistication--and more upright look--of a European hatchback.

Mikhail Nesterov
Mikhail Vasilyevich Nesterov Михаил Васильевич Нестеров |
Mikhail Nesterov during the 1900s | |
Born | May 31 [O.S. May 19] 1862 Ufa, Russian Empire |
Died | October 18, 1942 Moscow, Soviet Union |
(aged 80)
Field | Painting, Drawing |
Mikhail Vasilyevich Nesterov (Russian: Михаи́л Васи́льевич Не́стеров) (May 31 [O.S. May 19] 1862, Ufa – 18 October 1942, Moscow) was a Russian painter. He was a very important painter for religious symbolism in Russian art. He studied under Pavel Tchistyakov at the Imperial Academy of Arts. Later, he felt attracted to the group of artists known as the Peredvizhniki. His canvas The Vision of the Youth Bartholomew (1890–91) is often considered to mark the inauguration of the Russian Symbolist movement. This painting shows the conversion of Sergii Radonezhsky. From 1890 to 1910, Nesterov lived in Kiev and St Petersburg, working on frescoes in St. Vladimir's Cathedral and the Church on Spilt Blood, respectively. After 1910, he spent the rest of his life in Moscow, working in the Marfo-Mariinsky Convent. As a devout Orthodox Christian, he did not accept the Bolshevik Revolution but remained in Russia until his death, painting the portraits of Ivan Ilyin, Ivan Pavlov, Otto Schmidt, and Vera Mukhina, among others.

Pinkham8/10/14 11:57amFiled to: Fast Food Nation1505EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink I'm pretty sure that didn't come out of the fountain. Advertisement Nicky Hammond and Jordan Laidler of Durham, England, just wanted a nice meal. Unfortunately, they decided to go to KFC, so that was right out. What they didn't expect was that they'd find a live moth fluttering around in their soda, because no one who isn't actively hallucinating would actually expect that.This would be a problem under normal circumstances, but it's even worse since Hammond apparently is deathly afraid of moths. I know a fear of moths is more common than people realize, but I view it the same as I do a fear of squirrels (another common and kind of perplexing phobia): I shouldn't judge, but I can't stop laughing. Advertisement There's some dispute about what happened next: Laidler and Hammond claim they weren't offered an apology or a refund other than on the cheapest item they ordered, while the KFC claims they did apologize and offered them a full refund (albeit later that evening after Laidler and Hammond called the store).The funniest part of this is one quote from Laidler:"They have got our order wrong in the past, but this is going a bit too far."I'm just going to go ahead and leave that there.Reply150 repliesLeave a reply

NBC Orders Joe Port-Joe Wiseman, Jason Katims' 'About a Boy' Comedy Pilots
NBC has picked up comedy projects from New Girl's Joe Port and Joe Wiseman and Parenthood's Jason Katims.
The former, Joe, Joe and Jane, was among the biggest comedic bets the network made this development season. In October, NBC made a pilot production commitment plus seven-figure penalty for the semi-autobiographical relationship comedy from Port and Wiseman.
Their half-hour multicamera project centers on a conflict-avoidant children's book author caught in an ongoing tug of war between two needy, flawed people: his wife and his co-author/ best friend; it's not about a couple, it's about a "trouple."
Port and Wiseman will write and executive produce the project, which is set up at 20th TV, where the pair inked an overall deal in 2011. The men, whose shared credits include Last Man Standing, The Office and Just Shoot Me, are repped by UTA and Myman Greenspan.
Additionally, The Hollywood Reporter confirms that NBC has gone ahead and granted a pilot order for About a Boy, from the former Friday Night Lights showrunner. The half-hour Katims comedy is being adapted from Nick Hornby's novel as well as the 2002 Hugh Grant film.
For Katims, who will write and executive produce the Universal TV/True Jack production, this marks his third project this development season. The others: a CIA drama and a romantic dramedy with Parenthood's Sarah Watson, both at Fox.

Zooey Deschanel's been struggling to make sure people know she is not Jess from The New Girl. She has a bright retro style but struggles sometimes to dress sophisticated instead of twee. Monique Lhuillier's orange textured gown would be lovely on her petite frame. For a more grown up look, the retro lines on this Prabal Gurung cocktail dress is an absolute winner. Plus, that green with her hair and skin! Amazing!
Mayim Bialik (Yes, Blossom! She was nominated for The Big Bang Theory, which becca loves.) favors dark hues for the red carpet, and she's been hit and miss with fit. She doesn't exactly care for sexing it up. If she wants to stay safe with color, this sequin trimmed Naeem Khan has plenty of shape without really being a sexy dress. But if she branches into color, Stephane Rolland's pale blue gown with black ruffles and a geode belt is very adult and chic.
Kristen Wiig isn't afraid of looking sexy, but she is afraid of color. I'd love to see her in this plunging emerald leopard Gucci. Sass + Bide's neon beaded dress is half not-color and has a sexy slit in the front. Can't you just picture it with silver platforms and a thick braid?
Cat Deeley is the charming host of So You Think You Can Dance? I really like her. She seems to have a nice, easy-going personality and she's not afraid to take fashion risks. Cat's really tall and favors cocktail dresses that showcase her amazing legs. This green Gucci looks like a dress to shimmy in. Who better to wear it? Yes, it's a little silly-fun, but Viktor & Rolf's cotton candy 80s dress would be so fun with a 60s bouffant.
Christina Hendricks gets walloped by fashion critics every year, and I feel she's now their favorite punching bag. For a reprieve, she should play up her curves. Zac Posen is a friend to the curvy, and this red number would be a stunner with her red hair. The sequin lines on this mermaid gown by Zuhair Murad would accentuate her perfectly. Just get the ladies reigned in properly.
The 64th Emmy Awards are this Sunday on ABC. Next week you can vote on my choices versus what these ladies really wore, and we'll share our favorite looks of the night.

Christina Hendricks can't wear the Zuhair Murad because Blake Lively wore it already to the opening of "Savages" & everyone went nuts over her in it. Christina Hendricks would be ripped to shreds if she wore it too.

I know Blake wore it for a movie that kinda tanked. I would still want Christina to wear it. Of course, I am biased because I like Christina Hendricks and don't understand the appeal of Blake Lively.

This is Burma
Trip Start
Oct 01, 2011
Trip End
Dec 22, 2011
We will start by warning everyone that this is going to be a long entry. We apologize but there is just so much to write about in Myanmar (Burma).
After a smooth (but separate seated) flight from Bangkok, we arrived in Yangoon. On the drive into the city we were able to catch a glimpse of the glowing Shwedagon Paya and we knew Myanmar was going to be a special place. Although we were not sure if we had a hotel booked or not (sent the email right before boarding the plane), they took us in for a night.
Our two and a half days in Yangoon were largely spent exploring the city on foot. The first morning we ventured from the outskirts to the centre of the city taking in how life in Yangoon is lived. The temples, old colonial buildings, vibrant markets and friendly people were a great start. The highlight of our morning was the completely out of place Sule Paya (Buddhist temple) located in the middle of the cities main traffic circle. We dedicated the entire afternoon to Shwedagon Paya, the city (and arguably the nations) largest attraction. The golden stupa is an incredible site and one which is a major pilgrimage for many Buddhists. The stupa is covered in more gold than all the banks of England have. This made the temple appear to glow as the setting sun hit it. We spent the afternoon just scratching the surface of the Paya's design and history and watching the setting sun change the color of the stupa. We wandered away from Shwedagon looking for some diner, and only after dodging thousands of sewer booby trap holes, found a fantastic Bamar (local Burmese) restaurant. We feasted on soups, jumbo prawn, venison, vegetables, nuts and tea all for 7,000 Kyat. We had been hoping there would be a no show or someone would check out at the guest house but no such luck and we ended up sharing a single dorm room bed!
Day two included lots more walking and a visit to Kandawge Lake (rather polluted and surrounded by young teenage love birds) and Chauktatgy Paya. Chauktatgy Paya is home to a 70 meter reclined Buddha and 78 surrounding monasteries. The highlight however was meeting some nice young students who took us though their monastery and explained and answered all of our questions about Myanmar, Buddhism and monastery life.
That evening, we took a relatively comfy night bus to Mandalay with our new Spanish friend Mireia who is currently living in Bangkok. Mandalay is Myanmar's second largest city but seems much busier and more congested. We arrived at 4 am so opted for a quick nap before breakfast at our hotel. We walked by the Mandalay Palace / Fort (but not in due to the $10 government fee) and hiked up to the top of Mandalay hill. After a busy morning of walking, we decided to sample the cities public transportation system (pick up trucks with benches - see photo). We slowly made our way out to Amarapura on our packed city bus / truck filled with bags of rice and red betel nut juice spitting locals (betel leaf + betel nut + lime + tobacco = local equivalent of cigarets) while young boys hung off the back yelling and trying to commission more customers. It was certainly an experience and 10x cheaper than taking the tourist transport. Amarapura is just outside Mandalay and home to the worlds longest teak bridge (U Bein's Bridge). The remarkably long wood post bridge, locals transporting produce, monks commuting and old men on bicycles, complimented by the beautiful sun set backdrop, makes for a truly serene atmosphere. Sitting on the edge of the bridge taking in the sun set was a perfect way to unwind after a hectic day in busy Mandalay.
Our bus to Bagan started off pretty good, though deteriorated drastically once we turned off the main Yangoon-Mandalay highway onto a true Myanmar road. The next 5 hours were hot (A/C didn't work too well), dusty (front door wouldn't close), wet (drove through a river) and of course bumpy (no suspension). Needless to say, we made it and after a beer or so were back in a good mood.
Old Bagan and the surrounding area is the archeological gem of Myanmar (and in many respects contends with the Temples of Angkor). Bagan houses the remnants of over 4,400 religious temples built between the 9th and 12th century. The shear number of these brown brick temples set on the vegetated plains of central Myanmar is truly amazing. Although there is certainly a portion of big bus tour travelers, they are generally confined to a few well known temples leaving the others to everyone else.
We spent two days exploring the Temples of Bagan by bicycle which was a perfect way to navigate the small paths out on the plains. Although the temples are in general much smaller and individually less impressive than the temples of Angkor, the density of temples is what is spectacular. Although we visited most of the bigger more well known temples, we were not overly impressed with any of them. The smaller temples out in the plains with hidden staircases (often the third level even more so than the second) up to incredible 360 views of Bagan were our favorite and where we spent most of our time. We took in two wonderful Bagan sun sets on such temples by ourselves or with a few others seeking sunsets away from the crowds (if you are in the area there is one in particular we can recommend). Overall Bagan was an incredible place to visit but the pictures are needed to truly describe the vastness of temples.
The Bagan - Inle Lake Disaster (Bus)
Well we are nearing the end of our travels and think we can officially crown the worst bus ride ever to the solo Bagan to Inle Lake bus (Indonesia - Lake Toba to Sabolga was a close runner up). We should also preface this by telling you that both of us had a bad flu for the ride and were already in terrible moods. Somehow, there is only one bus running between Myanmar's two largest tourist attractions...and it leaves at 3:30 am. Ok bad start. Well it shows up and it is an ancient 32 seater with of course no suspension (not ideal for unpaved mountain roads). Of course we are at the back (always bumpier) but this time the back seat was 6 inches higher to the point that our feet couldn't touch and we basically had to stand / lean against the seats. The bus drove all 12 hours with the door open making for an incredibly dusty, fumey and hot ride making stops only when the bus driver deemed it necessary. Combined, likely the worst day of traveling we have ever had.
Inlay Lake (worth the bus ride)
After sleeping off the worst of our flu's, we rented bikes to explore around the lake and Nyaungshwe (main town). It is hard to figure out exactly where the land becomes the lake because of all the hydro farming surrounding the lake. The crops (and water buffalo) are tended to by incredibly balanced locals on canoes on the mirror calm waters contributes to the area being one of the most scenic in South East Asia.
Day two was our big boat trip day to explore the main are of the lake and it's floating villages. For a very reasonable price, we had our own (3 of us) long tail type boat with nice comfy chairs to take us around the lake for the whole day. We started with a trip across the lake to the 5 day market in Nam Pan. The market was enormous, with all of the surrounding villages present to sell and trade their goods. Some of the goods were local hand crafts and clothing aimed at tourists but the bulk was fish, fruits, vegetables, etc.. After the market, we explored the many floating villages (with floating gardens!) on the lake which are absolutely stunning. We had a chance to visit many of the hand craft shops including a silver smith, cigar factory (twice actually due to some quality control issues with some cigars we bought), hand weaving centre, and fibre paper factory. No matter how many times we saw them on the lake, it is hard to not stop and gaze at the amazing traditional leg paddling fishermen (see photos) tending to their nets.
After Inlay Lake we said bye to our Burma travel buddy Mireia, and took a collection of packed pick up trucks to Kalaw (always shocked when they found room for us in or hanging off the truck), one of the major trekking centers in Myanmar. We had wanted to do the trek from Kalaw to Inlay Lake on the way in, but due to the flu's, it didn't work out. We decided to do a two day trek around Kalaw and visit the highland countryside. Kalaw has a large variety of ethnicities including Nepali, Indian, Burmese and dozens of Burmese minority groups. The trek turned out to be more of a "walk" but visited some amazing view points (one with excellent chapatti) and villages along the way. The highlight by far was our excellent Nepali guide who also cooked us feasts of Nepali cuisine. It was also nice to have some cold weather up in the mountains (sub zero nights) which reminded us of what we are coming home to soon!
Another day in Kalaw and Yangoon and it was time to head home. Myanmar was an amazing place to visit, though much more expensive than expected (even more so if you didn't change money on the black market), as the government has specifically targeted large package tours making it less set up for independent travelers. Having to bring all of your cash into the country (no ATMs or such) is a bit nerve racking, but with careful watching of our bags it was fine. The people we met along the way were fantastic and so interested about life outside Myanmar. It was quite easy to spend money with private companies and avoid most of the travel dollars spent making their way to the government. With the upcoming election as well as the diplomatic visit from the US (Hillary Clinton...whose plane we saw at the Yangoon airport), it will be a very interesting country to keep an eye on as it will certainly see much change over the next few years.

Security Holes: Bugzilla Recommends Update
The developers of the free bug tracking system, Bugzilla, advise users of older versions to update for security reasons.
Various branches of the Web-based system maintained by the project are affected: one vulnerability allows attackers exploit the "buildid" entry of a form for bug reporting to launch a cross-site scripting attack. Additionally, a call to "Email::Send::Sendmail()" can be exploited to inject malicious code.
Finally, a bug in the Web service interface (XML-RPC) gives a user access the time tracking entries for all reported bugs, even if the user does not have appropriate privileges.
The developers advise users with version 2.20.x or 2.22.x to update to version 2.20.5 or 2.22.3 respectively. Users with version 3.0 or 2.18.x should move to version 3.0.1. More recent versions are not affected by the bugs. Bugzilla offers a download here.

Well if that female on female comment is unallowable what have we become? Stupid or what? Maybe all comments on democrats are politcally verbotin!
Am I the only one that thinks this was funny? A former chemo patient who is still growing back her hair criticized someone else's hair? That to me means there is a LOT of truth to her statement.
Fiorina's "outsider" status is tainted by her lack of business competence and, more concerning, her business ethics (she hired spies to report on the activities of her own board of directors! – which led to her forced resignation at HP). Her gaffe about Senator Boxer's hair is simply a glimpse of her lack of professionalism or, in fact, decent manners.
The GOP is not well-served by this self-financed would-be candidate. Clearly the California GOP was mesmerized by her wealth and failed to adequately vet her.
Oh please, women are always critical of each other's hair, make-up, dress, jewelry, etc...
Wow... when the public's response to childish and Jr. High like behavior, the party in question apologizes. Funny, I seriously doubt she is sincere. Carly is incapable of running a corporation, let alone a campaign. I am pretty positive that Ms. Boxer will continue to be the Senator from California, whilst Fiorina hopefully disappears into the footnote of American History that MIGHT mention her attempt to run for office.
Yes, we were quoting a friend.
Who will she be "quoting" when she explains where stands on the issues?
And, "I am my own person." One that quotes her "friends" instead of expressing her own thoughts, right?!
it is nonsense to make a big deal about this. what is a big deal is the disrespect boxer showed for our military when she upbraided one of our generals appearing before a committe on which she sat for addressing her as "ma'am" and saying to him that he should address her instead as "senator".
Quoting a friend? Really, we are supposed to believe that? When was the last time a non pro-choice candidate won in California? Like Meg, you will fail, thankfully.
We don't know a whole lot about this lady but from her own mouth we can conclude that she's clearly a petty person. Not exactly what I want my Senator to be know for.
Something else we know, what we know is that she was fired for poor performance as the CEO of Hewlett Packard. This was her 1st and only top executive job in business and she failed. In her other jobs, she wasn't much of a decision maker ... marketing was her background, I believe.
One thing I'm sure of is that HP lost thousands upon thousands of JOBS under Carly Fiorina's leadership. She outsourced them overseas so her commitment to the American worker is non-existent.
We are most who we are in those unguarded moments. She showed her true colors that day. She will equivocate about issues and attack her opponent instead of telling us what she's going to do about anything. She believes she can buy her way into government just as Bloomberg did in New York and Whitman intends to do.
She apologized to Hannity because she needs the tea partiers. But what she said cannot be unsaid. What she said is true. After winning the primary, it did not make sense for Whitman to appear on Hannity's show. Whitman needs the voters in the middle, not the tea partiers, if she wants to win the general election.
" I gave people the opportunity to talk about something petty and superficial". maybe you are petty and superficial. and come november, your political career will be so "yesterday". nice hair lezbo
you regret that you gave people the opportunity to be reminded that you dragged HP down a bigger hole than Bush/Cheney dragged the country and reminmded voters that they would be stupid to give you reins to a public office
Did Fiorina apologize to Boxer? I'm guessing not.
Fired from HP, no political experience. This woman has no hope of coming close to Boxer's service.
Carly is so mean. She should be more sensitive about "hair" comments since she was bald from chemotherapy. She was unsuccessful as HP's CEO and was also unsuccessful in John McCain's campaign.
I decided to leave a comment. How tacky. I thought Carly had a little more class than that. She need to think what she will do for California. Like maybe outsource more JOBS. I hope Carly is reading this. Because I am little disappointed of her....
I destroyed Hewlett-Packard, I can destroy America, too!
We all recognize the 'mean girl' from high school. It's nice that her honesty reveals her true character, a nasty egomaniac. This anti-environment corporatist, famous for outsourcing American jobs is wrong for California. Plutocrats controlling government is just 'so yesterday.'
Her comment, 'I am my own person' is quickly negated with her claims that she 'was quoting a friend of mine' and her inability to apologize for her remarks speaks to her willingness to assume responsibility for her behavior. Time to toss the teabag and grab a cup of coffee.
"I gave people the opportunity to talk about something petty and superficial" ... no, it's you who are petty and superficial.
This non-issue only diverts attention from her tenure as CEO at HP: thousands were laid off and the millions of dollars she received as a golden parachute when she left.
Speaking of hair, Fiorina's hairstyle is too short for her big head. And no, I'm not being facetious – her head is big – and the hairstyle is way too short for it.
Well, Garfield, you certainly looked and sounded like a catty fool. MEOW
carly IS stupid and superficial...what a joke
The comment should have been what is that woman not hair. How anyone could vote for Boxer is beyond me; you would have to be so far left you can't see 2 foot in front of yourself. The way this woman puts down our military is unreal. I hope she looses. It would be great to see her Pelosi both go.

Spurs Beat Heat 107-86 for Three-Games-to-One Lead in NBA Finals
Bill FariesKawhi Leonard's 20 points and 14 rebounds led the San Antonio Spurs to their second straight blowout win in Miami, a 107-86 triumph that moved them within one victory of dethroning the Heat as National Basketball Association champions.
The Spurs, who won 111-92 in Game 3 in Miami, took a three-games-to-one lead in the best-of-seven NBA Finals and can end Miami's two-season reign June 15 in Game 5 at San Antonio.
"They are playing some beautiful basketball, they're just carving us up," Miami's Chris Bosh told reporters. "They are pretty much getting everything they want."
Tony Parker added 19 points last night for San Antonio, which led by 19 points at halftime and increased its lead to 81-57 entering the fourth quarter. Boris Diaw had eight points, nine assists and nine rebounds.
"It's great that we get the opportunity to go back home, but we will not make the mistake to think it will be an easy game because we're playing at home," Diaw told reporters. "We know they're going to play for their lives."
LeBron James led Miami with 28 points on 10-for-17 shooting, but he got little support from his teammates. Bosh had 12 points and Dwyane Wade scored 10.
"They smashed us in two straight home games," James said. "I tried to will us back into the game, but they kept executing."
Tim Duncan, who had 10 points and 11 rebounds for San Antonio and is one win away from his fifth NBA title with the Spurs, broke Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's record for postseason minutes played. Abdul-Jabbar's mark of 8,851 minutes was set in 1969-89.
3-1 Deficit
The Spurs led the Heat three games to two in the NBA Finals last year and lost in seven games. This time, the Heat would have to make a historic comeback -- no team has overcome a three-games-to-one deficit and won the NBA Finals.
"Great position for us, obviously going back home with a closeout game," Duncan said in a news conference. "They're going to come out and show a lot of fire. We don't want to give them any life."

BHS-Sonthofen introduced their new rotor impact mill of type RPMF at bauma 2016. The new RPMF machines produce even finer fractions as well as output material with a significantly higher proportion of fine sand. As such, machines of this type are more efficient in producing crushed sand.
Valuable Rock Grade obtained from Contaminated Feed Material - The new dry process clay adhesions from screen waste produced in quarries and gravel pits. Operators report that they are able to convert more than 90 % of contaminated feed material into salable rock grade using the 'Combimix' system.
For dry or wet production of cementitious powders blended with other fine and/or coarse aggregate particles that require uniform homogeneous consistency at rapid mixing rates with reduced operational costs, the twin-shaft mixer is the most optimum and effective solution available.
A new unparalleled mixing plant from BHS-Sonthofen has been in operation of late at Nikolaus Müller Kalkwerk-Natursteinwerke (Müllerkalk) in Rhineland-Palatinate close to the Belgian border: It combines the continuous moistening of agricultural lime and the batch production of mixed binders for ground stabilization measures. The new plant opens up new markets for Müllerkalk, thereby compensating for the somewhat seasonally fluctuating lime market. The fully automatic loading is a special feature: it is available approximately 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Careful analysis and creative approaches are required for optimum applications of filtration technologies. The article discusses filtration technologies, applications for grey water and water scrubbing as well as troubleshooting.

Beckham For First Time Says He Wants To Leave Galaxy For Milan
NOT WANTING TO BURN BRIDGES: Beckham admitted that he is "not sure" how the Galaxy would respond to the news and that he is "wary of upsetting Leiweke, with whom he has had a good relationship." In London, Graham Spiers reports AC Milan attorney Leandro Cantamessa yesterday "joined forces with Beckham's advisers in discussion" with Leiweke about releasing Beckham from his MLS contract. A permanent move to Milan by Beckham "would not fall foul of UEFA's transfer window restrictions if Galaxy agreed to cancel his contract" (LONDON TIMES, 2/5). Also in London, Nick Harris writes with Galaxy's blessing, a permanent transfer "should be agreed quickly, in which case Milan would need to pay Galaxy a transfer fee." Beckham has a "get-out clause in his Galaxy contract but cannot trigger it without financial penalties until October" (London INDEPENDENT, 2/5).
POWER PLAY: SI.com's Jonah Freedman writes for the "first time in MLS history, the Galaxy have huge leveraging power over one of the preeminent soccer clubs in the entire world." The Galaxy "may have no choice but to let Beckham go, but they also have a unique opportunity to hold him hostage until they get something from Milan -- something beyond the eight-figure cash offer that inevitably will be [thrown] their way." Freedman lists "three bargaining chips the Galaxy can demand" from Milan: a suitable replacement player, a visit from Milan and a "beneficial partnership" (FANNATION.com, 2/5).
HE BROUGHT ATTENTION TO LEAGUE: ESPN's Tommy Smyth deemed Beckham's time with the Galaxy as a success. Smyth: "What other player in MLS can bring the world's attention to look at MLS? ... This man was everywhere, in every newspaper you got and every magazine. It was a success, maybe not football-wise, but certainly from a marketing point of view." While admitting MLS will "take a hit" with the loss of Beckham, Smyth said, "The league's only an infant league. It has a lot of time to go. They will miss David Beckham, but it's not the end of the world" ("ESPN First Take," ESPN2, 2/5).
Bettman Plays Down Coyotes Concerns, Praises Owner Moyes
KEEPING IT CLOSE TO THE VEST: The GLOBE & MAIL's Patricia Best reports the "word circulating among business people in Calgary" is that English Coca-Cola Football League Championship club Derby County co-Owner Brett Wilson "is trying to snag ownership" of the Coyotes. When asked about his interest in the Coyotes, Wilson would only refer to the city of Phoenix and said twice, "I've been there, I've golfed there." Best notes Wilson has "come right out and said he's interested in owning a piece" of the Predators, and he "has made no secret over the years of his desire to own a couple of NHL teams." Wilson in October said, "Would I be interested in buying into the Predators? In a heartbeat, yeah. The NHL knows I'm interested. I've supplied all the paperwork" (GLOBE & MAIL, 2/5).
Rooneys In Talks To Possibly Add Another Investor For Steelers
CELEBRATORY COSTS: Pittsburgh Public Safety Dir Michael Huss said that the city "spent $79,500 to deploy 258 police officers and legions of clean-up crews" for the Steelers Super Bowl XLIII victory parade, which drew an estimated 350,000 people on Tuesday. In Pittsburgh, Jeremy Boren notes the Steelers "did not contribute any money, and the team did not return a call seeking comment." After the team's win Sunday, fans "flooded city streets," and costs were "higher in part because of overtime shifts and use of police, firefighters and other personnel." Huss said that the money to "cover both celebrations will come from an annual allocation the state gives Pittsburgh to host 'regional events'" (Pittsburgh TRIBUNE-REVIEW, 2/5).
Was Gregg Popovich Inconsiderate Of Fans In Sitting Spurs Stars?
OUT OF LINE? ESPN's Tony Kornheiser: "If I went to that game in Denver and I paid probably $300 for two seats, at least, and they gave me (Spurs G) Roger Mason Jr. … and I missed out on all the great talent, I'd be very upset because how many times am I going to go to a game?" He added, "If you're David Stern, you have to care about the ticket-buyer. So strategically, (Popovich) may have done the right thing, but I'm not sure anybody in the league is happy" ("PTI," ESPN, 2/4). FANHOUSE.com's Brett Pollakoff wrote, "What about the fans? What about all of those people that voted to have the game televised on NBATV?" (FANHOUSE.com, 2/4). ESPN's J.A. Adande: "It's disappointing to the fans in Denver who paid their money. (But) guess what? Gregg Popovich does not have to answer to the fans of Denver. He has to answer to his owner and his Spurs fans, and he's doing what's best for them." Boston Globe columnist Bob Ryan: "There's no sympathy for the fans in Denver because anyone who buys a ticket in pro sports it's 'Caveat emptor.' You take your chances" ("Around The Horn," ESPN, 2/4).
BAD PRECEDENT TO SET: In San Antonio, Buck Harvey writes the NBA should "hope others don't copy this, and so should Spurs fans." Maybe the Cavaliers for the February 27 road game against the Spurs should rest F LeBron James the "only night he's in San Antonio" this season. But Harvey writes, "How can the NBA lecture Popovich about hurting the product -- when the league hurts it more?" The NBA "can't fine a franchise for not playing certain players, especially after an inactive list replaced a system that once encouraged teams to invent phantom injuries" (SAN ANTONIO EXPRESS-NEWS, 2/5).

Comcast-Spectacor Sells AHL Phantoms To Brooks Group
SKATING AWAY: Comcast-Spectacor President & COO Peter Luukko said of the sale, "Emotionally, it's disappointing, but we have to make good, viable business decisions. Every business venture has a viable lifespan and (the team) was becoming less and less viable, and over the next 10 years it was going to require millions of dollars to operate." In Philadelphia, Ed Moran notes the move was "prompted by the planned development of the Wachovia Center area into a shopping and entertainment complex." Luukko said that the team "needed a new home and the immediate Philadelphia, Trenton or Atlantic City area just wouldn't work" (PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS, 2/5).
Pistons' Home Sellout Streak At Palace Ends At 259 Games
Franchise Notes
DEEP FREEZE: The Wild yesterday announced that the team will not raise season-ticket prices for the '09-10 season or the '09 Stanley Cup playoffs. Current Wild season-ticket prices range from $18-86 per game. The team has 16,500 season-ticket holders and more than 7,500 deposit holders on a waiting list. The Wild have the longest current sellout streak in the NHL at 350, including preseason and playoff games (Wild). In Minneapolis, John Shipley notes if the team makes the playoffs, tickets will range from $32-100 "for a first-round series, rising to between $65 and $183 if the Wild make the Stanley Cup Finals" (ST. PAUL PIONEER PRESS, 2/5).
COUNTRY TWANG: KUKLASKORNER.com's Dirk Hoag noted the Predators after the conclusion of the Super Bowl broadcast locally aired a new ad featuring musician Taylor Swift. The promo is "another example of how the new ownership group is bringing fresh energy to their advertising campaign, and doing a fine job getting their message out to the broader audience" (KUKLASKORNER.com, 2/2).
SUCH A MAVERICK: In Dallas, David Moore reported the NBA office told Mavericks Owner Mark Cuban that it "will not allow him to make a donation to charity in" Nuggets G J.R. Smith's name. Cuban last month was fined $25,000 "for what the league termed 'improper interaction' with" Smith, and "whenever Cuban is fined by the league, he consistently matches that amount and donates to charity." But making a donation in Smith's name "was a dig at the league, one the league chose not to play along with" (DALLASNEWS.com, 2/2).

Soft Center
Right from its storybook opening -- the voice-over narration begins with Once upon a time . . . -- Lasse Hallstroms Chocolat aims to beguile. Though a gray and somber sky hangs over the French village of Lansquenet on the eve of Lent, the promise of mischief and passions reborn is in the air as mysterious strangers Vianne (Juliette Binoche) and her daughter, Anouk (Victoire Thivisol), draped in bright-red hooded cloaks, arrive along with the North Wind. Even as the villages inhabitants listen to a church sermon on the virtues of denial -- under the ever-watchful eye of the rigid and righteous mayor, the Comte de Reynaud (Alfred Molina) -- the strangers set about preparing the instrument of their release: a chocolate shop.
Based by screenwriter Robert Nelson Jacobs on the novel by Joanne Harris, Chocolat first positions Vianne as a quasi-mystical dispenser of pleasure as a form of psychic healing. Each of the handful of Lansquenet residents who come to the fore has resigned him- or herself to a seemingly inescapable despair, in keeping with the towns enforced code of abnegation. Trapped in an abusive and loveless marriage, Lena Olins free-spirited Josephine has become a withdrawn kleptomaniac. Denied by a disapproving daughter visitation rights to her grandson -- a boy who expresses his own sadness through the morbid subjects of his sketchbook -- Judi Denchs libertine has become a crusty crank. Such responses to past traumas and ongoing emotional pain immediately link many of Chocolats characters to the obese mother in Hallstroms Whats Eating Gilbert Grape. Gradually, however, it is the wandering Vianne herself, as she carefully prescribes her intoxicating confections to the joy-starved townsfolk, who emerges as Hallstroms favorite kind of person: an eccentric soul in search of her place in a harsh world.
Gilbert Grape stands as Hallstroms best English-language film (My Life as a Dog still holding its title as his best film, period) in part because he never underlines the big themes at work beneath its everyday -- if awkwardly out-of-step -- humanity. And so the films blending of warmth, humor and gravity never comes off as the precisely measured formula it really is. His The Cider House Rules, on the other hand, is as overstated and manipulative as American art-house cinema gets.
Chocolat falls in between. While there are scenes of wrenching emotional openness and spontaneous charm -- largely due to the irresistible allure and impeccable craft of its ensemble cast -- the degree of calculation apparent in its plot and images undermines its efforts to move and seduce. As a result, Hallstrom, who can usually be counted on to step back and give his actors the reins, here occasionally comes into conflict with them.

Throughout the film, the struggle between Vianne and the mayor, who wants to shut her down, follows a rigidly proscribed comic blueprint for battles between the passionate and the repressed. So much so that when de Reynaud finally confronts his own desires, the pent-up anguish that Molina pours forth so honestly only confused a screening audience, which kept laughing, having been conditioned to see him as a clown. It is a similarly by-the-numbers approach that keeps Hallstrom and cinematographer Roger Pratt from finding in their shots of Viannes creations -- as Alfonso Arau did with whole menus in Like Water for Chocolate -- the liberating potential held within the exotic morsels. At one point, without Dench or Olin there to show us the confections transformative power through subtle and rapturous facial expressions, Hallstrom is reduced to obviousness, giving us a chocolate statue in the shape of Venus.
Ultimately, the big themes that Hallstrom forces into play through such tactics detract from and diminish the real heart of the film, which lies with Vianne and the relationships she forms with the women of the village. (A subplot affair with Johnny Depp as a smooth vagabond doesnt help, either.) That in the end Vianne contemplates the benefits of a settled domestic life only leaves one with a faint aftertaste, and the sense that her kitchen might come to symbolize something other than freedom.

art clay metal clays | or look at electrickilns.co.uk or cherryheaven.co.uk or call |
Art Clay, sometimes called silver clay, gold clay, metal clay, or precious-metal clay, is made by Aida Chemical Industries in Japan: it's a composite material, made of fine silver or gold powder and a harmless water-based organic binder.
Straight from the packet, it looks and feels like plasticene: so you can shape it easily, using familiar modelling tools and similar techniques. Its flexibility makes it a versatile material, ideal for home and business jewellers, metalsmiths, craftworkers, modelmakers, glass studios, potteries, and art colleges.
You can design and make your own unique anklets, beads, bracelets, brooches, charms, earrings, keepsakes, necklaces, ornaments, rings, and seasonal decorations.
Silver clay is available in two forms, Original and the newer 650: Original fires at 800°C and 650 at 650°C, held for 30 minutes. The fired metal is solid silver, which can be hallmarked as pure 999 silver.
Gold clay fires at 990°C, held for 60 minutes. The fired metal is a solid alloy made from 91.7% gold and 8.3% silver, which can be hallmarked as 22 carat gold.
You can add silver clasps to clothes, overlays to gift cards, motifs to handbags, highlights to wood, ceramics, glass, and shells, and make complex pieces using cutters, moulds, shaping tools, stamps, and texture sheets.

Alchemy is a medieval belief that non-precious metals could be turned into gold. Although personal desire and chemical optimism did not create gold from something not-gold, the magic of the idea is still very powerful.
Suppose you want to make a silver heart for a necklace. You need silversmith's skills to cut, file, smooth, drill, and polish a piece of silver. It takes a long time, mistakes are expensive, and offcuts are hard to recycle.
Now suppose you want to make a modelling-clay heart. You need no special skills to shape, smooth, and dry a piece of clay. It doesn't take long, mistakes can be corrected, and offcuts can be kneaded back into a re-useable piece of clay.
Now make an ArtClay Silver heart, shaping it just as you did with the modelling clay. Dry it, fire it, and it turns into a shining solid-silver heart. The alchemy magic is that it's real metal.
Art Clay is a clay-like material made of fine silver or gold powder and water-soluble organic binders. As it's fired, the binders vapourise, releasing very small amounts of non-toxic carbon dioxide and water vapour, and the metal powder sinters, leaving solid 999 silver or 22 carat gold. Real metal, not something that just looks like metal.
Art Clay, sometimes called silver clay, gold clay, metal clay, or precious-metal clay, is made by Aida Chemical Industries. It's available as 650 silver clay, original silver, slow dry, slow tarnish, water paste, oil paste, overlay paste, syringe clay, paper clay, gold clay, gold paste, gold foil, copper clay, and cork clay.
Art Clay is easy to fire in your kiln: put your dry pieces in the kiln and programme the temperature and hold-time. Or you can try it on your kitchen gas hob, on a camping gaz ring, or with a butane torch.
The firing temperature and time are important: metal clay has to sinter, not melt. There's a difference between sintering and melting: during sintering, the binder in the clay vapourises and the metal powder particles bond to produce solid metal whereas, during melting, the metal powder particles liquify and lose their original clay-shape.
Comprehensive instructions are included with the product although, as with many materials, make time to experiment rather than accept general recommendations as definitive.
If you're currently using PMC, try Art Clay. There are differences in the feel, the shrinkage, the strength, the surface lustre, the product range, the pricing, and the general commercial setup if you're running a serious business.
Art Clay water-based silver and gold clays look and feel like dull grey and dull yellow plasticene or polymer clay, and can be shaped easily using familiar modelling tools and similar techniques. Silver clay comes in regular, slow-dry, and slow-tarnish: gold in regular.
The slow dry silver clay stays malleable for about four times longer than the regular clay: so it's ideal for beginners, or anyone making thin, delicate, or intricate shapes.
The slow tarnish silver clay is slower to tarnish. However, remember that all silver, not just Art Clay silver, tarnishes due to environmental oxidants and pollutants.
Silver clay, after firing, is solid silver, which can be hallmarked as pure 999 silver. Gold clay, after firing, is a solid gold and silver alloy, which can be hallmarked as 22 carat gold: 91.7% gold and 8.3% silver.
Silver clay can be combined with a wide range of materials, before firing: beads, copper, dichroic glass, pearls, porcelain, polymer clay, semiprecious gems, and fine silver findings.
Its easy-to-use flexibility makes it a versatile material, ideal for home hobbies, jewellery making, craft businesses, glass studios, ceramic cafes, metalsmiths, modelmakers, and potteries.
Art Clay water-based silver clay paste, oil-based silver paste, water-based silver overlay paste, and water-based gold paste, look and feel like dull grey and dull yellow double cream, and can be applied with modelling tools or a soft moist brush. The water-based silver paste comes in regular and slow-tarnish: the gold in regular.
The water-based silver paste has three main uses: to paint onto a mould; to add shape to existing unfired silver clay; or to stick two pieces of unfired silver clay together.
The oil paste has three main uses: to add shape to existing fired silver clay; to stick two pieces of fired silver clay together; or to repair a broken fired silver piece.
The overlay paste has one main use: to add silver highlights, texture, or decoration to fired silver clay, glazed ceramics, glass, or porcelain.
The water-based gold paste has four main uses: to paint onto a mould; to add shape to existing unfired gold clay; to add gold highlights, texture, or decoration to fired silver clay, glazed ceramics, glass, or porcelain; or to stick two pieces of unfired gold clay together.
Art Clay water-based silver clay in a syringe looks and feels like dull grey toothpaste, and can be squeezed out to make fine patterns. The silver clay comes in regular and slow tarnish.
It has three main uses: to create delicate patterns, either on unfired silver clay or on a cork clay mould; to add shape to existing unfired silver clay; or to stick two pieces of unfired silver clay together.
Art Clay silver clay as paper looks and feels like thick soft aluminium foil, and can be cut easily with a modelling knife or a shaped cutter.
It has two main uses: to create flat, folded, curved, or hollow shapes; or to add shape to existing unfired silver clay. Although it can be used for origami-like shapes, it's thicker than ordinary paper so can't be folded and refolded neatly.
Art Clay cork clay is a clay-like material made from fine cork particles and water-soluble organic binders. It looks and feels like thick biscuit-mix, and can be shaped with modelling tools or a soft moist brush.
It has one main use: to create a mould on which to build a metal-clay shape, particularly for a delicate or hollow piece that needs support until it's fired. The cork burns away during firing.
All metal clays shrink slightly during firing, so it's important to do some tests before starting on your best ideas. However, it does mean that details and textures become more focused.
All particulates represent a health risk if they're breathed in, so it's very important to wear a HEPA mask when mixing powders, handling charcoal, sanding dried clays, and cleaning out your kiln. Ideally, use protective glasses.
Clays, charcoals, dust masks, electric kilns, hot gloves, magnetic polishers, protective glasses, rotary tumblers, shelf paper, and other tools and materials, are in the on-line shop: use the shop link below the menu bar near the top of the page.
This internet resource is provided by Cherry Heaven, a UK and EU distributor, retail shop, and support centre for kilns, parts, accessories, tools, and tumblers. It's not a bead, ceramics, glass, or metal-clay home-business, selling to a market niche.
As it's an on-line resource, there isn't a paper catalogue or a price list. However, you can mail or call a technician about kilns, power supplies, public area safety, a special project, business ideas, diagnostics, repairs, or reselling opportunities.
Cherry Heaven is an on-line distributor and retailer in West Holme, South-West England. It's an EU distributor for US-made Paragon Kilns, and has been commended for an outstanding performance as one of Paragon's top-selling distributors over 2007 to : a pleasing outcome since the UK is only one third the area of Texas and one fortieth the area of the US.
Cherry Heaven was the name of the business in West London, then the shop in Corfe Castle village. Although there's no longer a shop, Cherry Heaven is still the working name.
The surrounding countryside includes green farmland, dramatic heritage cliffs, pretty stone cottages, historic buildings, sandy beaches, protected coves, open heathland, hill-top panoramic views, market towns, and peaceful villages. And lively seaside resorts. To look at some photos, use the dorset link below the menu bar near the top of this page.
Paragon Industries started as a family business in 1948. It's now the world's leading manufacturer of electric kilns and furnaces, and has built over 420,000. The 4,400 square-metre site, in Mesquite, Texas, USA, has over 70 full-time staff. A new 1,700 square-metre warehouse is under construction.
During manufacture, every kiln is checked at every stage by a technician and signed-off before shipping. They're simply but robustly engineered, and you're buying a comprehensive, versatile, safe, low-cost kiln: a kiln with a future.
Paragon kilns conform to the demanding UL 499 standard in the US, and are CE Marked for the EU. Paragon is Greek for Model Of Perfection.
The Kitiki Studio provided an Art Clay educational programme, as classes, masterclasses, workshops, and Art Clay Level 1 and Level 2 certification. However, as we're in a rural area, I now recommend teachers that might be nearer, so mail or call.

Thread: seperated- warning long
seperated- warning long
if some of you noticed I havent been on lately is because Ive been going through seperation. My husband as of almost 3 weeks ago told me after March break for us- that we were through after almost 20 years. he says hes not in love with me and hasnt felt like for about 4 years. and heres the number for social services call. I cant help how I feel he says.
week before back at our friends place , I knew something was up. The first 4 days treated me like crap and dotted on her. skirt tailed her, flirted non stop. Of course when confronted theirs nothing going between both parties. Bull- I put all the duckies in a row Im not in denial and see whats going on. he treats me like crap and her a queen. and all the times I thought I could trust my husband with her alone and when he helped her- I guess I was wrong.
too many things keeping popping up. and after 2 days when he told me he was through and left he high tailed back to her place- excuse babysit the house - yet he never came back the bday easter day weekend to be with kids. I think it was all planned.
he turned 40 on easter day. he is going through mid life crisis no doubt about it. dyed the hair pitch black , depression at times( which i thought it was over loss of his best freind(my cousin). greiving. fot the last little while.
he told me he felt like he could never talk to me when he was leaving-and but guess what she picking up the pieces and he admitted he can talk to her.
the way he treated me, pushes me away then left me- was disrespect and didnt care if kids saw him flirt over there.
Im so angry and hurt. he says no councilling he stayed in for 4 years too long. Im devasted at times.this is not my husband.
not his character.
Im moving on but the hurt that she may be in the picture down the road is hard.
Im making plans , next week im looking into going back to school in fall and ideas of maybe medical assistant.2 years of that .
but for now with councilling Im barely getting by. emotional wise. he and the kids were my whole life. I know that was wrong. and with no extra money it will tight for awhile till I can get up and find something even part time till school starts. socail services are helping.
Im starting over a chapter i didnt think id ever go through. Im angry, hurt and devastated. overwhelmed and trying to take 1 day at a time. Ill try to be on when i can. - 04-10-2010, 09:07 AM #2

04-10-2010, 09:30 AM #5I'm sorry you're going through this. I just went through a divorce with my college sweetheart. We were together for 15 years, married for 9 and it was painful.
You'll get through one day at a time and there will be happiness on the other end of this. I know it's difficult to see that now, but it's there.
You're smart to get a new plan in place ASAP. Keep busy, keep planning and it's going to be fine.04-10-2010, 10:06 AM #6- Join Date

The trouble with getting older...you don't always get wiser...he'll wake up someday and think WHAT DID I DO???? Unfortunately you will be well on your way to a new life by then. Good for you to be going back to school. This is a time for you to grow! Take it one day at a time and keep looking forward!

04-10-2010, 01:59 PM #13OH, I'm so sorry to see you're going through this Miss_Thrifty. (you too, Muse)
I cannot imagine. My sister is going through this with her husband after 30 years of marriage. After a few months of feeling pretty lousy, she is starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and feeling better.
My prayers are with you to heal quickly.04-10-2010, 04:13 PM #14I am so sorry to hear this. I am glad that you are getting counseling. Hold your head up and keep moving forward. You have all of us here. I wish I could do or say something that would help. Big hugs to you!!

I'm so sorry your going through this. What a scuzbucket he is to do this to you after all those years. As others mentioned keep going to counseling, go back to school and don't forget living well is the best revenge. One day you'll be able to say "Who's Crying Now?"

The bad news is the ISA investment limits. With the exception of the 1999/2000 tax year, you can invest a maximum of pounds 5,000 in an ISA, split between up to pounds 1,000 in cash, up to pounds 1,000 in life insurance and up to pounds 5,000 in stocks and shares each tax year subject to the overall pounds 5,000 limit. For 1999/2000, the limits for cash and equities are a maximum of pounds 3,000 and pounds 7,000 respectively.
The annual limit for insurance investments is the same in 1999/2000 as it will be in future years. Any policy that insures the life of the policyholder is eligible for inclusion in an ISA. Joint life and multiple life policies are not eligible and the investment can't be used for mortgage security.
Maxis and Minis
ISAs have two separate structures, Maxis and Minis. In any tax year investors can hold either one Maxi or up to three Mini plans. A Maxi ISA must be managed by a single plan manager and must offer a stocks and shares component, with or without the cash and life insurance elements.
A Mini ISA can hold just one of the three types of investment and you can choose to have up to three separate plans provided by up to three managers.
Once made, investments count for the full tax year, even if withdrawals are made. For example, if you start a Maxi ISA and invest pounds 3,000 in cash and pounds 4,000 in equities (in tax year 1999/2000) and then withdraw pounds 2,000 of the cash, this doesn't mean that you can invest a further pounds 2,000 in equities.
Similarly, if you decide to hedge your bets and start a cash Mini ISA, you will then be restricted to an equity Mini ISA in that tax year, with an investment limit of just pounds 3,000.
A word of warning: choosing a Maxi ISA will restrict you to a single plan manager, and providers of top-performing funds may not offer the best interest rates on your cash and insurance deposits. Similarly, banks and building societies paying good rates of interest may not be able to match the performance of the top-ranked investment funds.

isa guides
If you sent off for a guide some time ago, make sure it's up to date; the Woolwich guide originally issued in November 1998 was published before the rules were finalised and contains a fundamental error about which types of equity investment are permitted in an ISA.

The New York Times ran an piece on Tuesday (June 16th) about new advances in explaining the origin of life. They discuss four such advances that scientists are just now beginning to discover, from the how cell-like structures may have naturally formed from fatty acids to the handedness of molecules. The article can be found here.
Dr. Stephen Meyer, Director of the Center for Science and Culture at the Discovery Institute and the author of the forthcoming book Signature in the Cell, responded to the article by addressing the problem of the origin of biological information. Meyer's response can be found here.
