Rangers let Darvish's brilliant start slip away to Tribe
Brantley belts walk-off HR off Klein in 12th; Feliz loses lead in ninth
CLEVELAND -- The Rangers know that Neftali Feliz is not going to throw as hard as he did before undergoing Tommy John surgery on Aug. 1, 2012.
The Rangers accept that as fact. What they need to know is if Feliz can still handle their closer's role even if he is no longer overpowering.
"We're going to find out," manager Ron Washington said.
Feliz was successful in his first three save opportunities after Joakim Soria was traded to the Tigers but let one get away on Sunday afternoon against the Indians at Progressive Field.
Feliz gave up a two-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to former teammate David Murphy that erased the Rangers 3-1 lead and the Indians ended up winning in the 12th on a homer by Michael Brantley against rookie reliever Phil Klein.
"We put ourselves in position to win the game and didn't close it out," Washington said. "It's on all of us."
The blown save cost Yu Darvish his 11th victory after he went seven innings, holding the Indians to one run on four hits. He walked two and struck out eight on 101 pitches.
"It's very disappointing that the team lost but there will be days like that," Darvish said. "No pitcher has a 0.00 ERA."
Feliz was 96-100 mph with his fastball before the surgery. On Sunday he was 88-90, which is low even for him after Tommy John.
"I felt great," Feliz said. "The results just weren't what I wanted. I'm not worried about velocity. I'm trying to hit my spots and make sure my mechanics were right."
Feliz, who took over after Neal Cotts set down the side in order in the eighth, started the inning by getting Lonnie Chisenhall on a fly to center. But then he walked pinch-hitter Chris Dickerson after getting ahead 0-2 in the count.
Murphy then hit a first-pitch, 90-mph fastball just over the right-field wall for a two-run home run to tie the game.
"I tried to throw a fastball away and I left it over the middle of the plate," Feliz said.
"It was pretty much the pitch that hopefully every hitter is ready for when it comes," Murphy said. "It was down the middle, a little bit down. I was ready for it."
Feliz has made 11 appearances since being recalled from Triple-A Round Rock and has allowed five runs on eight hits and five walks with five strikeouts. He has a 3.14 ERA and opponents are hitting .167 off him. But he has allowed three home runs in 14 1/3 innings.
"He just didn't make pitches," Washington said. "He didn't make pitches on Dickerson and it cost him. He didn't make a pitch on Murphy and it cost him. There will be days when you see velocity and days when you don't. There will be days when he's 93 to 94 and days when he has to pitch. Today he didn't execute his pitches.
"It's all about executing pitches. You can throw 88-91 if you execute pitches."
The Rangers lost despite taking a 3-0 lead early. The day after going 0-for-9 with runners in scoring position, the Rangers delivered on the first chance they had on Sunday. Elvis Andrus doubled with one out in the first and scored on a single by Alex Rios against Indians starter Trevor Bauer.
In the second inning, the Rangers scored two runs without the benefit of a hit as Bauer started the inning by hitting J.P. Arencibia and walking Leonys Martin and Chris Gimenez. Rougned Odor followed with a flyout to right that scored Arencibia and moved Martin to third. Shin-Soo Choo's fly ball to left brought home Martin.
That was the first time the Rangers have scored multiple runs in an inning without the benefit of a hit since April 19, 2012 against the Tigers.
The Indians scored in the bottom of the second on doubles by Chisenhall and Murphy. That ended a streak of 18 consecutive scoreless innings in day games for Darvish. But he did not allow another hit until a two-out single by Carlos Santana in the sixth.
"I was able to throw my [offspeed pitches] in key situations so it was a very good day," Darvish said. "Murphy had some good swings today and made some pretty good plays in the field so you have to say it was Murphy's day today."
It was also another day to see if the Rangers former closer can do it again. That may be No. 1 on the Rangers' list of priorities as they go through the final two months of the season.
"I'm going to get [Feliz] back out there so he can feel good about himself again," Washington said. "He felt great about himself today, he just didn't get it done. I'm going to give him another chance to get back out there and get it done."

Android market share surges to commanding 90% of China's smartphone market
0. phoneArena posted on 15 Nov 2012, 09:37
Once upon a time, Symbian ruled supreme in China. Then, Nokia adopted Windows Phone, and Symbian fell off a cliff…

well, windows phone has nothing to do with the demise of symbian. it had to fall off. windows phone might save nokia.

Android is the most advanced OS, and the best thing is it's opensourced.
Google is generous with Chinese manufacturers even when it doesn't benefit the OS developer.

i guess if you call 84% market share a failure

In a word, WOW. It helps to have Chinese OEMs using Android, just bring some of those killer phones to other countries, please.

If that's the case in China, I wonder how is it in Japan....it's probably 95% or higher.
13. ZEUS.the.thunder.god (unregistered)
sooner or later it would be the same all over Asia. some credit goes to apple as well for overpricing. iphone5 costs over $1k here in India. People are loving Android.
17. rusticguy (Posts: 2828; Member since: 11 Aug 2012)
Yea $1K and Airtel showing just panormama as feature in TV advertisements that have just started for IP5. Only kids who want to show off their dad's money buy these toys not for features but only for price... India is Android, Symbian, RIM still.
14. darac (Posts: 2156; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
And India is to follow the same pattern.. and then Africa

Certain fans make fun of cheap Android phones, but it's the full spectrum of low, mid, and high end phones that will make your comment a reality. It's not just the openness of Android that makes it successful, it's the rich diversity of handsets available. I think Google saw that early on and knew they had a winner because of it.
16. therealestmc (Posts: 475; Member since: 23 Jul 2012)
What is the point when google is not making any on those phones? Most of these android phones can't even access the playstore. At this moment, it is more of a bragging right than anything else.
19. Aeires (unregistered)
Proliferation of an ecosystem is worth far more than not making much, if any, on low end handsets. Not only that, if OEMs can make money on them, it creates more opportunities to work on high end handsets.
18. rusticguy (Posts: 2828; Member since: 11 Aug 2012)
They don't make fun of cheap phones ... they just showcase their ignorance :)
20. Aeires (unregistered)
Lol. ;-)
22. gothicheart (Posts: 83; Member since: 17 Oct 2012)
good job for zte, huawei, and tcl communications, then add to that all the unbranded chinese mock-up phones. Im sure they are all having the same experience as you would have, albeit not paying that much for an s3 or other high-end android phones that you paid for. now, who's the loser?

The press releases seem to be coming in twos today!
David Osborne of The Genealogist sent me the following information about the new DNA service that they are offering. The prices start from £64.95, not sure what level of DNA investigation this is for, but their website is bound to give all their details.
Here's the press release……
DNA testing made affordable
As more and more people research their family history, there comes a point when it becomes very difficult to go any further with your family records and the trail go cold. However, there is now a possibility of going much further and the use of genetics has helped Family Historians create new lines of research. The Genealogist has started offering these DNA tests to the public to help trace family lines with prices starting at £64.95 with other packages available.
"I see this as another tool that not just genealogists but anybody interested in family history could use to discover a lot more information," says Mark Bayley, Head of the Online Division at TheGenealogist.co.uk "When you research a line, there's only so far back you can go when the paper trail ends. DNA can bridge that gap and get you past those brick walls. Many people are interested in genealogy and don't have time to research the full family history themselves. Now they can learn more about their family than they ever thought was possible. We have access to the largest DNA Database and it can really help expand your family history knowledge."
DNA Testing from TheGenealogist can allow beginners to the world of genealogy to make big strides in developing their family history in much quicker time and discover key leads, also allowing you to connect with other genealogists and family members you never knew existed.
Many thousands of users have purchased DNA testing and the demand is increasing as people decide to take their family history research that step further. It's a quick , painless process involving a swab in the cheek that can give you a wealth of information on your past!
It is a fascinating way to really retrace your roots.

The book "American Spartan" is about Army Special Forces Maj. Jim Gant, who tries to get Pashtun tribes to fight against the Taliban.
But author Ann Scott Tyson's relationship with Gant raises several ethical questions.
A former Pentagon reporter, Tyson fell in love with Gant while she was working at the Washington Post, and they eventually married. She left the newspaper to live with Gant in Afghanistan as he tried to stand up Afghan Local Police. Gant was eventually pulled out of Afghanistan, in part because he was accused of providing Tyson with classified information.
"As most would view it, I crossed over to the dark side professionally by becoming involved with Jim and he with me," Tyson writes. "I saw it differently, particularly because he is so open about his own failings and those of the U.S. military and Special Forces. If anything, through being close to Jim, I have gained a far more unvarnished view of the military and its flaws, having seen the institution from the inside."
In an interview with Military Times, Tyson made clear that she never helped Gant in her capacity as a Washington Post reporter. She had also stopped covering the Pentagon when she met him.
"I think that is mainly important for people to understand — that I left journalism," she said Friday. "People may have the conception because they know me as a war correspondent for the Washington Post that this was going to be a more traditional journalistic account, but it's a work of narrative non-fiction.
"And that, I think, allowed me to see and to express many sides of this story that would have been absent from a traditional journalistic account. I think that gives the story great depth and breadth and insight into things, places and people that ordinarily would not have come to light."
As a reporter, Tyson would never cover someone with whom she was in a relationship. But while at the Washington Post, she helped Gant write recommendations for senior U.S. commanders, such as Gens. David Petraeus and James Mattis.
"I couldn't help but imagine, reading their responses, how shocked they would be if they learned of my behind-the-scenes role," Tyson writes in the book.
Tyson told Military Times that she helped edit Gant's reports in her free time, not when she was working. The reports, she says, were unclassified, so she did not need a security clearance to see them.
In her book, Tyson writes that several months into Gant's deployment to Afghanistan, the two decided that she should join him. She took book leave from the Washington Post because she was unable to cover Gant's mission as a reporter, but she was able to get book-related interviews with U.S. units at the same bases where Gant operated.
Asked if the book was just a pretext that allowed her to go to Afghanistan, Tyson insisted that she always intended to write about the Afghan Local Police program.
"I went to Afghanistan to write the book, and [in] the applications I made in every case for traveling there, I clearly put down 'book author' in requesting the coverage," she said. "When I did interviews, everyone knew that I was writing a book. So that was the purpose of me being there."
However, Tyson was not just a detached observer when she went to Afghanistan. Shortly after arriving, she was able to "gain some critical intelligence" for Gant when she sat in on a meeting with commanders in which they talked about moving his team. She promptly relayed the information to Gant and told him how he should respond.
Tyson told Military Times she happened to be there when the meeting took place and that it was not planned. Still, she acknowledged that she was a participant in the events she wrote about.
"When you're a reporter, you deliberately stay invisible; you stay out of things; you keep yourself out of the story, as a reporter," she said. "As an author, you have a different role, and I did become part of the story over time. The first draft of the book that I wrote had much less of me in it. In other words, I was programmed as a reporter to stay out of things, but once I became a book author, I evolved."
In the book, Tyson writes that she played a vital role while living with Gant because she was able to speak to local Afghan women in Pashto, giving Gant's team access to a world from which they had been excluded.
"I was a core and relatively experienced member of his team," she writes. "I provided valuable information and perspective, and I had demonstrated my ability to navigate the Pashtun tribal culture and create valuable relationships with Afghan men as well as women."
But Gant was taking an "incredible risk" by living with Tyson, she writes. He told local Afghans that Tyson was his wife, and that meant Tyson had to follow local customs.
If any tribesman had disrespected her, Gant would have been honor-bound to fight him. She could also have sparked a conflict by not following the Pashtun code of honor.
It was even more dangerous because the Taliban knew she was living with Gant, and a local Taliban commander talked about killing an American woman, she writes.
"Always know where your AK-47 is," Gant told her. "If I ever ask you and you do not know where that rifle is, I will be furious. Do you understand?"
Reading "American Spartan," it's hard to tell when Tyson is acting as a reporter, an author, a lover or a soldier. This blurring of distinctions is best illustrated by two photographs that Tyson and Gant kept in their room in Afghanistan.
"One showed us cleaning weapons after training," Tyson writes in the book. "In the other, I was posing playfully with Jim's M4 carbine and AK-47 rifles. Below the photograph, I had written in Greek the admonition of Spartan wives as their husbands left for war: 'Return with your shield or on it.'"

I had seen pictures of the new Fortuner ahead of its introduction in India. Honestly, I was hoping it would look better in real life. But it still looks a little too sleek. And according to me an SUV should look macho and not sleek. Barring this problem, the new Fortuner is I think a great car as it feels more powerful and comfortable to drive than ever before. The interiors are very nice too and I like all the new features too. The front seats do not have cushioning adjustment for any variant and that is a big letdown according to me for such an expensive vehicle.
But apart from these factors, I know my new Fortuner will be very reliable and trouble free and for that matter alone I love the Toyota Fortuner. Looking forward to may years and kilometers with my new Fortuner.

By Jake ThiewesA job search can get quite frustrating these days, with so many people competing for too few openings. To ease the burden, AOL Jobs tracked down the 10 top companies that are hiring this week. From sales jobs to finance positions, full-time to part-time, these employers have a plethora of openings they're looking to fill.
Good luck job hunting! 1. Pizza Hut Jobs: 6,257 Openings Pizza Hut continues to expand, adding new locations nationwide. For those with a knack for customer-service-with-a-smile, these jobs could be for you. Work in the store, or behind the wheel as a delivery driver. Employee Review: "Decent hours, fun working environment, challenging (but not too much), rewarding, quick training (I was cross-trained, so I could fill any role necessary)." 2. UnitedHealth Group Jobs: 3,367 Openings UnitedHealth Group currently provides health insurance services to more than 75 million people worldwide. Employee Review: "I really enjoyed my time at UnitedHealth Group. The trainers were very knowledgeable and were always there to answer any questions that I had. I worked as a claims associate for just a few short months before being promoted to another department. I then went on to work from home! Only left this company because of personal issues not related to my job. Great place to work!"
3. Macy's Jobs: 1,984 Openings Even though sales are down slightly, the retail giant continues to hire in large quantities nationwide. Employee Review: "The management is competent. Employees are given a good discount and still able to use coupons. You can pick up more hours online when they become available." 4. Chrysler-Mopar Jobs: 1,889 Openings The company continues to add jobs throughout the country, with its latest hiring spree looking for workers to build Jeep vehicles in Toledo, Ohio. Employee Review: "The company is extremely adaptable and resilient after its financial distress in recent years, and the company is very hopeful for the future. The need for young and creative people is overwhelming -- those without automotive background may be better positioned than they think!"
5. AT&T Retail Jobs: 1,864 Openings Wireless giant AT&T continues to hire in large volumes, as many customers upgrade their smartphones and purchase tablets that require LTE data plans.

About the Book
The 243 paintings in this book represent a fraction of the work that Marjorie Gotkin created in this genre. In over 20 exhibitions throughout Manhattan, Rhinebeck, NY, Massachusetts and Florida her unique interpretation of an age-old subject has been praised as an innovative style of American Impressionism. Artloop had used her work as representing several categories of art such as flowers, vases, still life and listed her with the great impressionists of the 19th and 20th Centuries. Using palette knives and gouache to create texture and shape her watercolors often resemble oil paintings. Subdued or wildly emotional, the still life/floral leap from the paper. Many reproductions of these works are currently at the Smithsonian Institution, in Washington, D.C., under the title, "Marjorie and Jerry Gotkin Collection 1965-2007".

Fox Gives Their "Star" Paul Ryan A Birthday Cake
Blog ››› ››› CHELSEA RUDMAN
Nearly four years ago, Associated Press reporters Ron Fournier and Liz Sidoti opened an interview with Sen. John McCain before the nation's newspaper editors by lavishing the then-presidential candidate with his "favorite treat," donuts ("with sprinkles!"). The gift was quickly panned as a symbol of the free ride that the press had given a thankful McCain for years ("we're his base," in the words of Chris Matthews).
This morning, Fox set a new standard in sugar-based obsequiousness, closing an interview by giving their "star" Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) -- who Fox figures have lavishly praised -- a birthday cake.
Fox News Sunday anchor Chris Wallace concluded today's interview with Ryan by noting that "it's your birthday ... your 42nd birthday." A Fox staffer then walked onto the set holding a sheet cake decorated with a large dollar sign. Ryan, clearly surprised, laughed and said, "You've gotta be kidding me. Oh, my God. Where did you get this?" After Wallace joked that he made it himself, the two turned the cake's dollar sign into a plug for Ryan's calls to cut the budget:
WALLACE: I was up all night making it.
RYAN: Yeah, yeah you were.
WALLACE: You want to cut into that sucker?
RYAN: I don't know.
WALLACE: We -- it's the federal dollar. Don't you want to -- ? (laughing)
RYAN: Yeah, I see that. Right. Well, we need to make more of these for people in this country. Not cakes, dollars.
Wallace insisted Ryan cut the cake for what he admitted was a "photo op." Get it? Ryan was cutting the federal budget.
It's no surprise that Fox is handing out treats to Ryan (even though the congressman told Wallace he doesn't eat sweets) -- Fox figures have a long history of treating Ryan with extensive praise. After he delivered the Republican response to President Obama's 2011 State of the Union address, Fox & Friends hosted GOP pollster Frank Luntz to declare that "Barack Obama was the focus [of last night], but Paul Ryan seems to be the star." In May 2011, Fox News contributor Dana Perino gushed that Ryan "stands up on the merits"; later that month, two Fox News contributors called for him to run for president.
Fox has also been steadfast in helping Ryan push his proposals. In April 2011, after Ryan released his budget plan -- which would have replaced Medicare with a voucher system and increased out-of-pocket costs for seniors -- Fox figures went into overdrive praising Ryan's plan and protecting it from criticism. Brian Kilmeade declared Ryan a "genius," while fellow Fox & Friends co-host Steve Doocy sympathetically asked Ryan for his thoughts on how Democrats had turned his plan "to fix Medicaid, Medicare," into a "bogeyman." In July 2011, anchor Shannon Bream asked on one of Fox's alleged straight news shows how the GOP could "get ... the true facts" out about Ryan's Medicare plan.
Given all the times Fox has hyped Ryan and his proposals, a birthday cake is really the least of the gifts Fox has given him in the past year.

Pacific Brands is casting off workwear brands like KingGee and Hard Yakka and pinning its recovery hopes on the iconic Bonds and Sheridan labels after slumping to a $224 million loss.
The struggling clothing maker will sell its workwear division to Coles and Target owner, Wesfarmers, for $180 million, leaving it to focus more heavily on underwear business Bonds and sheet maker Sheridan.
It has also promoted its finance chief David Bortolussi to oversee the recovery effort, replacing former chief executive John Pollaers who left the company in July amid a boardroom battle over the company's direction.
But shareholders shouldn't bet on a turnaround any time soon as tough competition continues to put pressure on the company's profit margins.
Mr Bortolussi says the company expects to lift sales during the first half of 2014/15, but weaker profit margins and a lower Australian dollar would push earnings down again.
"The company expects a continuation of challenging and variable market conditions," he said on Tuesday.
Pacific lifted sales revenue 3.8 per cent to $1.32 billion during 2013/14, but earnings dropped by more than a quarter due chiefly to the lower profit margins.
The full year result was also weighed down by a $241.8 million goodwill writedown to the workwear division and $46.6 million in restructuring costs.
CMC Markets chief market analyst Ric Spooner said removing the workwear division was a step in the right direction.
It would allow Pacific Brands to reduce its $249 million debt pile, and devote more attention to its flagship brands.
"I think it's a company that needs to consolidate and clean up, so the chances are this is a positive move," he said.
But IG Market strategist Evan Lucas said the sale of workwear might make it harder for Pacific Brands to increase revenue and earnings.
"Now that they have got rid of workwear the question is where do you look for growth, does it look in underwear? That's obviously really, really hurting."
Pacific scrapped its final dividend in order to reduce some of its debt, which Mr Bortolussi said would be a key focus for the company in 2015.
Pacific Brand shares added one cent to 58 cents.
* Sales revenue of $1.322b, up 3.8pct from $1.27b in 2012.13
* Net loss of $224.5m, down from $73.8m profit
* No final dividend, down from 2.5 cents per share

"I ordered these on begonia paper with yellow lettering. I had a special request with one of the words , and Wedding Paper Divas were happy to speak with me about it several times and print per my request. These announcements are very pretty, and the paper quality is much better than I expected!"
"We had a destination wedding that was private- but wanted to share with others later. The postcard fit the theme of our invites and these turned out beautifully! The quality of the cards was outstanding and the shipment arrived very quickly. We are very happy with this product."
"My mother-in-law wanted a conventional announcement-type and this was perfect. We would have preferred that this was not a post-card style, so we were able to work with the design team to remove the mailing portion on the back so that we could place these in envelopes. They came out beautifully! Actually, the cards themselves, the customer service and the ease of ordering all exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this card type and Wedding Paper Divas themselves."
"The colors and quality of the cards were awesome! They were exactly what I was wanting. The customer service was amazing as well!"

Reviews for this host's other properties
Apartment comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated. Near the Part-Dieu train station and well connected to the city center by metro, bus and tram (if you want even walk). Mickael is nice person, jovial and willing to meet the needs of guests. Excellent stay: we would not have wished for better.
Appartamento confortevole, pulito e arredato con gusto. Nei pressi della stazione ferroviaria di Part-Dieu e ben collegato al centro della città tramite metropolitana, autobus e tram (volendo anche a piedi). Mickael è persona simpatica, gioviale e disponibile a venire incontro alle esigenze degli ospiti. Soggiorno ottimo: non avremmo desiderato di meglio.
The contact with Mickael was very good. The apartment was exactly as described and the location in Lyon is just great! The apartment is very dark and cool, which has its pros and cons, very pleasant to sleep, to stay there during the day rather unsuitable. The equipment in the kitchen is good. There is a stove, washing machine, refrigerator, microwave, toaster and all kinds of dishes, so really great to have breakfast in the morning and in the evening to cook something small. I recommend this apartment for a stay for two a few days in Lyon!
Der Kontakt mit Mickael war sehr gut. Die Wohnung war genau wie beschrieben und die Lage in Lyon ist einfach toll! Die Wohnung ist sehr dunkel und kühl, was seine Vor- und Nachteile hat, zum Schlafen sehr angenehm, zum tagsüber drin aufhalten eher ungeeignet. Die Ausstattung in der Küche ist gut. Es gibt einen Herdplatten, Waschmaschine, Kühlschrank, Mikrowelle, Toaster und allerhand Geschirr, also eigentlich super um morgens zu Frühstücken und abends etwas kleines zu kochen. Ich empfehle das Appartment für einen Aufenthalt zu zweit ein paar Tage in Lyon!
Apartment very pleasant for a great stay in Lyon. It is very well located, close to everything really. You can visit walk the red cross, the old Lyon, the Peninsula, the park of the golden head and Fourviere.
The hosts are charming and very accomodants. I will have no hesitation in re-rent it if I get the chance.
Apartement tres agreable pour un super sejour a Lyon. Il est tres tres bien situe, proche de tout en fait. On peut visiter a pied la croix rousse, le vieux Lyon, la presqu'ile, le parc de la tete d'or et Fourviere.
Les hotes sont charmants et tres accomodants. Je n'aurai aucune hesitation a le relouer si j'en ai l'occasion.
Clean but too small for 2; shower leaks, good locale.
The studio was great! Centrally located - shops and attractions are either a short walk away or a short ride on public transport. The studio comes with free wifi and cable TV which is a bonus and is equipped with all necessary cooking equipment. The hosts Emilie and Mickael and great also.
The apartment is exactly like in the description and in the photos. Very clean and well equipped. There were no problems, the Schluesseluebergabe worked well and Emilie is a very friendly and accessible landlady.
Gladly again!
Die Wohnung ist genau wie in der Beschreibung und auf den Fotos. Sehr sauber und gut ausgestattet. Es gab keinerlei Probleme, die Schlüßelübergabe hat gut geklappt und Emilie ist eine sehr freundliche und gut erreichbare Vermieterin.
Gerne wieder!!
Beautiful, lovingly furnished apartment. Very centrally located. Good supervision. In some cases a little low, my husband is quite large, he had to bend down. Competent and good value. Thank you
Schönes, liebevoll eingerichtetes Apartment. Sehr zentral gelegen.
Gute Betreuung. Teilweise ein wenig niedrig, mein Mann ist recht groß,
er mußte bücken. Sehr empfehlungswert. Danke
Very friendly landlady. The apartment is well furnished and comfortable. Unfortunately, only skylights available.
Sehr freundliche Vermieterin.
Die Wohnung ist gut und komfortabel eingerichtet .
Leider nur Dachfenster vorhanden.
Great little flat in the Croix-Rousse which is a handy neighbourhood for shops, metro, etc...
Great communication with Emilie, clean and very practical little place to stay. It is a bit dark though if you are planning on staying outside in the little courtyard.
Thank you, Emilie!
Quiet & clean flat in a great location. Sorry we could not meet you in person.
Highly recommended.

A9TV; September 17th, 2011
Secularism is a precaution and a blessing against hypocricy. There is secularism in the Qur'an's spirit. That is to say, you feel respect to a Christian, to a Jew, to an atheist, idolator. You live by your religion in the most beautiful form. You interfere in no-one's affairs. And no-one can interfere in your religion. That is it.
The Qur'an is freedom from start to finish. It breaks the chains. It produces a world that is as free as can be. It gives us complete democracy. The Qur'an gives us the conception of secularism. People learned that afterward. They learned it from the uncorrupted parts of the Torah, and the uncorrupted parts of the Psalms. For example, they took the Marxist conception of social justice from the Torah. Belief in the Mahdi was taken from the Torah, from the Psalms and from the Qur'an. Karl Marx sought to turn it into a false way of the Mahdi. He tried to turn it into dictatorship and pain. The demolition of Darwinism was vitally important. It was a secret scourge. The real infection. But a secret infection. People looked at their bodies and could not see it. But the disease was there, in their lungs and livers. But I surgically removed it with scholarship and science and love.
Turkey currently has a radiant and devout society. The environment was terrible in the last days of the Ottoman Empire. May Allah forbid! Bigotry was everywhere. It was bigotry that tore down the Ottoman Empire, backward thinking. Everyone knows that. That is a fact. We must make good use of the opportunity Ataturk has given us. We must cling tightly to secularism. Secularism is the cure for hypocrisy. When you put secularism on a wound, it kills the hypocrisy there. Hypocrisy cannot remain. That is secularism. Democracy opens people's minds. There is no totalitarian structure or system in democracy. We must cling tightly to them both. And we must respect people's idea of freedom. We must avoid all pressure. Using compulsion is a violation of morality. Almighty Allah says, "there is no compulsion in the religion" in one verse. Simple as that. There is nothing else to say about the verse. No ifs and buts. If Almighty Allah says there is no compulsion in religion, that is an end of the matter, insha'Allah

Black Magic
|Throwing light on black box systems.
For most of us, the expression black box conjures images of aircraft disasters and the crash-proof technology that records flight data and cockpit conversations so the accident can be analyzed. It's a brilliant technique for retrieving possibly life-saving information out of tragedy, but I'm pleased to write that it has almost nothing to do with the term black box you'll see in many marine electronics brochures these days.
Furuno product manager Eric Kunz is widely credited with bringing the black box name to boats and to a certain extent originating the concept. Furuno was having trouble securing a steady supply of displays for its big radar units, and Kunz took it upon himself to go into his shop and mock up a box that contained the processing portion of the system and could feed imagery to a variety of off-the-shelf displays while being controlled by a separate keypad. This would allow Furuno to concentrate on the radar's guts and let owners shop for a display that suited their particular helm station and wallet. Black Box Radar was born, and its multiple benefits began to show themselves. Today, Furuno has added sounders and sonars to its Black Box line, and other manufacturers like Simrad have begun to offer similar products.
What's more, "black boxing" has come to refer to a whole new architecture of marine electronics systems, in which all sorts of data is collected and processed by discrete boxes (including PCs) and then fed to an array of flat displays and customized helm controls. You'll see the results–sleek, balanced "all glass" bridges–in some of the megayachts featured in this issue.
The benefits of black box electronics begin on the practical side, as modular components can mean easier installation and maintenance. Put the box in an electronics locker and cable it to an easy-to-mount flat screen on the bridge. If the box fails, only it needs to go to the shop; the technician may not need to even visit the nav station. If the monitor fails, it can be replaced with a unit from any number of sources, or you can switch to a redundant display.

• camarilla •
Pronunciation: kæm-ê-ri-lê • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Noun
Meaning: 1. A cabal; a clique, often secret, of unofficial advisors. 2. Any covert or secretive party of intriguers.
Notes: Today's Good Word arose in reference to the circle of cronies that surrounded King Ferdinand VII, who ruled Spain from 1814 to 1833. However, it is equally applicable today in English, which uses the rather awkward phrase 'kitchen cabinet' to refer to essentially the same thing.
In Play: Usually a camarilla surrounds someone in a position of power: "The boss never listens to our complaints; he only listens to his personal camarilla of self-indulgent sycophants." Now, power may be interpreted in many ways: "Gilda Lily and her snooty camarilla glided past Mortimer, giggling as though they knew something no one else did."
Word History: Camarilla is a diminutive of Spanish cámara "room" meaning "small room". It is based on Late Latin camera "chamber" from Classical Latin camera "vault". Latin borrowed the word from ancient Greek kamara "an object with a vaulted cover, top, or ceiling". The Latin word went into the making of quite a few words that English borrowed. French turned it into chambre "room", which we quickly snatched. English also grabbed the original, camera, shortened from camera obscura "dark chamber", when a camera was just that, a box with a pinhole that allowed an upside-down picture to be projected on its back to be traced. Comrade comes from Spanish camarada "a company of soldiers lodging together" (literally "a roomful") and, later, a member of such a company. (Our gratitude today is due Douglas Schulek-Miller, a member of Dr. Goodword's rather large and nonsecretive camarilla of word suggesters, for submitting today's Good Word.)


text:
Puppies: From 3 to 5 weeks of age, moisten food and feed frequently. From 6 weeks of age, feed the suggested amount in three meals per day until 6 months of age, then twice daily.
Pregnant/Lactating Bitches: During pregnancy, offer 50% more and during lactation offer at least two to three times more than the amount shown for puppies over 12 months of age.

Corn futures are trading solidly lower at midsession. The market is being pressured by strength in the dollar and concerns over whether or not European leaders will agree to a deal about the current debt crisis. Strong losses in crude oil are also a bearish factor. There has been some talk recently about China buying some U.S. corn, but so far no sales have been confirmed. December is 13 cents lower at $6.37 3/4 and March is 12 cents lower at $6.50 1/4.
Soybean futures are lower at midday. Strength in the dollar index and weakness in crude oil futures are weighing on the market. Concern that European leaders will fail to agree on a euro zone debt crisis deal is a bearish factor. Harvest is wrapping up in many areas as USDA pegged progress at 80% complete as of Sunday. Weather has been favorable much of this week, although rain will slow activity in the eastern Corn Belt. November is 10 1/4 cents lower at $12.15 1/4 and January is 10 cents lower at $12.23 3/4.
Wheat futures are trading lower at midsession. With a lack of fresh news, wheat markets have turned lower on strength in the dollar and spillover weakness in corn and soybeans. There is concern about European leaders reaching an agreement on the debt crisis, which could slow global economic growth and hurt demand. Egypt's recent export business went to Russia with none of the business going to the U.S. CBOT December is 16 cents lower at $6.20 1/4, KCBT December is 14 cents lower at $7.19 1/2 and MGE December is 8 cents lower at $9.08 1/2.
Cattle futures are trading mixed at midday. Front end contracts are being supported by the firm beef prices on Tuesday. The market is looking for mostly steady cash bids this week as improved beef prices and tight supplies of market ready cattle counter poor packer margins. Cash cattle traded last week at $120-$121. December is 5 cents higher at $122.03 while February is 33 cents lower at $124.40.
Lean hog futures are lower at midsession. Seasonally increasing hog numbers and the $2.03 decline in pork cutout prices are weighing on the market. Cash bids are generally $1-$2 lower this morning. Packer margins have improved from last week, but lower cash bids will be needed if packer margins are going to hold up given the recent decline in pork cutouts. December is 58 cents lower at $87.28 and February is 98 cents lower at $90.18.

Similar to a standard bitch-slap, except that the hand is cocked nearly straight-armed, far behind the slapper, as if they were spreading their arms wide. The movements are heavily exaggerated, to emphasize the severity of the situation that calls for such a slap. The motion is to represent having to reach back to California for the wind-up. Known as the Jersey bitch-slap when used in California.
"Teena pissed me off so bad, I had to give her a California bitch-slap. Believe me, the bitch deserved it."

I replaced my tires 4000 miles ago. The new car set only got 48000 miles, they did wear even. That set were somewhat nosey but nothing like this new set. They are so bad it is like mud tires. Also, these and the first set will spin on my wet driveway. I wished I had bought some other brand of tires.

Very noisy, sounds like mud tires on my crossover. Handling is very poor over 60 mph. Grips good in the snow and ice. Also good at low speeds on dry pave. Horrible in the rain. I've been regretting these tires since I got them. And they cost more than my OEM tires, which I will be going back to.

I just had these tires put on to my Enclave this spring and they were great all summer but now that there some icy conditions they are terrible. I can hardly keep the vehicle on the road when icy. I find myself wandering all over while everyone else blows past me. I have never had tires this bad in winter conditions on any vehicle I have ever driven. DO NOT USE THESE TIRES IN WINTER. THEY ARE DANGEROUS.

This tire comes on the 2015 GMC Denali and I need to change them out at 28,000 miles because of poor road handling. Just recently it started to feel like I was driving on bald tires even though there is still tread with even wear. I rotated them every 12,000 miles. Extremely disappointed with this tire durability on a luxury vehicle.
