CHICAGO — Theo Epstein resigned from the Red Sox on Friday with a year left on his contract as general manager to become president of baseball operations for the Cubs, a team that has gone 103 years without a World Series title.
With Epstein at the helm, the Red Sox ended an 86-year World Series title drought in 2004 and won it again in 2007.
Cubs fans can only hope he will do the same thing. Chairman Tom Ricketts fired GM Jim Hendry in July after another disappointing season.
The teams negotiated for more than a week over compensation the Red Sox would receive for letting Epstein, 37, out of his contract. In the end, they decided that would be resolved in the near term. Epstein will reportedly receive a five-year deal worth about $18.5 million in Chicago.
The Red Sox are expected to name assistant GM Ben Cherington as Epstein's replacement. Boston must also find a manager to replace Terry Francona.
The Cubs are also interested in hiring Padres general manager Jed Hoyer for that position, where he would be reunited with Epstein, according to various reports. They worked together in Boston.
The teams said they would hold news conferences Tuesday.

With a brand new driver in a brand new car, the main thrust of the morning's program was acclimatisation.
Straight after we revealed our 2013 challenger - the MR02 - to the media this morning, we got our 2013 pre-season testing programme underway at the Circuito de Jerez.
Max left the garage shortly after running got underway at 09.00hrs CET and was immediately at home in the MR02. He steadily built his performance from there.
We took time out over the lunch period to conduct routine checks with the KERS and other systems before Max took to the track again for his afternoon programme.
It was shortly after he had embarked on this that an issue with the right rear suspension became apparent forcing Max into a spin. We decided to curtail his running as a precaution while further inspection is conducted with the specific component.
Max Chilton "This afternoon's problem aside, I'm really happy with the start we have made to our 2013 campaign. With a new car there is always the potential for something to crop up and cut the programme short, but for the morning period everything went according to plan, which is just the start we needed.
I'm sure the Team will get on top of the suspension issue very quickly so we can all pick up where we left off and start putting some more miles on what is obviously a very promising package."
John Booth, Team Principal, Marussia F1 Team: "Up until the afternoon session we really couldn't have been happier with the way things were going for us with the car and Max.
It was a big day for him but he has been his characteristically mature and assured self, and as a consequence of that and a very seamless morning's running, we have every reason to feel encouraged by our big picture.
In terms of the specific issue we encountered this afternoon, we will naturally ensure we conduct a thorough inspection of the component in question and see what solution we can bring to recommence our programme."

THE if. & if. McOARTHY. YERDON v. STYFFE. (Olrcult Court of Appeals, Second Olrcult. No. 97. 1.
April 18, 1894.)
NegllgenjJy permitting a tug to go ahead while the master of a canal boat, which she is towing, is shifting the towing hawser from the port cleat to the forward bitts, according to directions received from the tug, thereby catching his tlngers in the loop of the hawser, renders the tug liable for at least divided damages. 55 Fed. 85, affirmed. Failure of party to a decree for divided damages to appeal therefrom prevents the appellate court from reversing the decree as against him.
l!. SAME-UNJUSTIFIABLE
Appellee allowed damages to the extent of 10 per cent. on the amount in controversy as damages tor delay where appeal from decree in admiralty was, in opinion of appellate court, entirely unjustifiable.
Appeal from the District Court of the United States for the Southern District of New York,
This was a libel by William T. Styffe against the steam tug J. 8i J. McCarthy, Frederick A. Verdon, claimant, to recover damages for personal injuries. The district court rendered a decree for divided damages (55 Fed. 85), and the claimant of the tug alone appeals. The facts and the matters in controversy, aside from the testimony, were thus stated by the district judge:
"On the 19th of July, 1892, between 2 and 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the libelant, who was the captain in charge of the canal boat Fred Fassbender, which was going around the Battery in tow of the tug J. & J. McCarthy on a hawser about 40 or 50 feet long, lost two of the fingers of his right hand by getting them smashed in changing the hawser from the port cleat to the forward bUts. The tow had been taken from the Wallabout by two hawsers running to the port and starboard sides. Off pier 5 or 6, East river, the starboard hawser either slipped or parted, and the canal boat, being held by th" port/line only, began to take a sheer to starboard. The libelant was at that time near the stern of his boat. Seeing the sheer, he ran forward, saw that the starboard hawser was gone, and, according to his testimony, was hailed by one of the men on the stem of the tug, who told him to shift the hawser from the port cleat, and put it over the bitts near the stem; that he attempted to do so; and that while putting the loop which formed the end of the port hawser over the bitts, the tug started up, and that his fingers were thereby caught between the hawser and one of the bitts about six inches from its top."
McCarthy & Berier, for appellant. Hyland & Zabriskie, for appellee. Before WALLACE, LACOMBE, and SHIPMAN, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM. We are entirely satisfied with the conclusions of the district judge that the libelant was injured by the negligence of those in charge of the tug in permitting her to go ahead, without notice to the libelant, while the libelant was attempting to fasten the tug's hawser in a new location upon his own boat, at the request of those in charge of the tug. We are less satisfied with the conclusions of the district judge that the libelant was also negligent. As, however, the libelant has not appealed from the decree dividing the damages sustained by him, we can only affirm the decree. The merits of the controversy depend entirely upon the credibility of the witnesses who were examined in the presence of the district judge. We think the appeal was entirely unjustifiable, and that the cause is a proper one for allowing to the appellee, in addition to interest, damages for delay to the extent of 10 per cent. upon the amount of his recovery, with costs of this court and of the district court. The judgment is affirmed, with directions to the district court to decree accordingly.
THE ARGONAUT.' DEMING v. THE ARGONAUT. (District Court, S. D. New York. May 8, 1894.)
Leaving hatches open during intervals in unloading, the passage-wa;r Ilnd the hatches being reasonably lighted, is not negligence.
Reported by E. G. Benedict, Esq., of the New York bar.

Okay, there's just one topless picture in the set, still, bravo to British thespianic Keira Knightley for going full-frontal topless in Interview magazine. There aren't many mainstream young actresses who would undertake such an exhibition. Now then, your next thought. Yes, I can read your mind. My powers of clairvoyance are matched only by my ability to power nap in the middle of the day. Keira is a rather modestly chested woman. Obviously, as purveyors of all things pert and plump, we are used to see our boobtastic gals with a bit more of the bosomly gifts. But that doesn't in any way negate the fact that the fairer sex comes in all shapes and sizes.
Keira may not be your cup of tea, but for some out there, their tea kettle is already whistling and ready to blow. Hence, why I try not to censor the skintastic of attractive celebrities too much, because everybody likes something different. Keira, we applaud your bravery. And your wet hair. That is kind of hot. Enjoy.

ZWITINA, Libya — Coalition forces bombarded Libya for a third straight night Monday, targeting the air defenses and forces of Libyan ruler Moammar Gadhafi, stopping his advances and handing some momentum back to the rebels, who were on the verge of defeat just last week.
But the rebellion's more organized military units were still not ready, and the opposition disarray underscored U.S. warnings that a long stalemate could emerge.
The air campaign by U.S. and European militaries has unquestionably rearranged the map in Libya and rescued rebels from the immediate threat they faced only days ago of being crushed under a powerful advance by Gadhafi's forces. The first round of airstrikes smashed a column of regime tanks that had been moving on the rebel capital of Benghazi in the east.
Monday night, Libyan state TV said a new round of strikes had begun in the capital, Tripoli, marking the third night of bombardment. But while the airstrikes can stop Gadhafi's troops from attacking rebel cities — in line with the U.N. mandate to protect civilians — the United States, at least, appeared deeply reluctant to go beyond that toward actively helping the rebel cause to oust the Libyan leader.
President Barack Obama said Monday that "it is U.S. policy that Gadhafi has to go." But, he said, the international air campaign has a more limited goal, to protect civilians.
"Our military action is in support of an international mandate from the Security Council that specifically focuses on the humanitarian threat posed by Col. Gadhafi to his people," the president said on a visit to Chile.
In Washington, the American general running the assault said there is no attempt to provide air cover for rebel operations. Gen. Carter Ham said Gadhafi might cling to power once the bombardment finishes, setting up a stalemate between his side and the rebels, with allied nations enforcing a no-fly zone to ensure he cannot attack civilians.
Among the rebels, as well, there was a realization that fighting could be drawn out. Mohammed Abdul-Mullah, a 38-year-old civil engineer from Benghazi who was fighting with the rebel force, said government troops stopped all resistance after the international campaign began.
"The balance has changed a lot," he said. "But pro-Gadhafi forces are still strong. They are a professional military and they have good equipment. Ninety percent of us rebels are civilians, while Gadhafi's people are professional fighters."
Disorganization among the rebels could also hamper their attempts to exploit the turn of events. Since the uprising began, the opposition has been made up of disparate groups even as it took control of the entire east.
Regular citizens — residents of the "liberated" areas — took up arms and formed a ragtag, highly enthusiastic but highly undisciplined force that in the past weeks has charged ahead to fight Gadhafi forces, only to be beaten back by superior firepower. Regular army units that joined the rebellion have proven stronger, more organized fighters, but only a few units have joined the battles while many have stayed behind as officers struggle to get together often antiquated, limited equipment and form a coordinated force.
But as NATO members met Monday in Brussels to try to work out a common position that would allow the organization to participate in the no-fly zone there seemed to be confusion about who exactly would carry the operation forward. NATO approved on Sunday plans to help enforce a United Nations arms embargo against Libya, but so far it has not been able to agree on how to proceed on either that or the no-fly zone. Discord also plagued the coalition. The United States was eager to pass leadership off, but the allies were deeply divided on the issue. Turkey was adamantly against NATO taking charge, while Italy hinted Monday it would stop allowing use of its airfields if the veteran alliance is not given the leadership. Germany and Russia also criticized the way the mission is being carried out.
Prime Minister David Cameron of Britain said that responsibility for the no-fly zone would be transferred to NATO. But France raised objections to that, with its foreign minister, Alain Juppé, saying in Brussels on Monday that "the Arab League does not wish the operation to be entirely placed under NATO responsibility. It isn't NATO which has taken the initiative up to now."

- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup herb butter (see Note)
1. Preheat oven to 300°F.
2. Place sugar, salt, and flour in a food processor and pulse to combine. Cut butter into 1/2-inch chunks, add to the processor, and pulse until butter is evenly distributed and dough holds together when pinched.
3. Dump the dough onto parchment paper and form into an evenly thick rectangle. Roll out with a lightly floured rolling pin until the rectangle is 6 by 8 inches. Using a straight edge as a guide, cut the rectangle into 1-inch crosswise strips and then in half lengthwise to form 16 1-by-3-inch cookies. Prick each cookie 4 times with the tines of a fork. Carefully place on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet.
4. Bake for 23 to 26 minutes, or until the cookies are set and just starting to turn golden (not browned). Cool on racks before serving. Store in an airtight container.
Note: Shortbread tastes wonderful flavored with almost any combination of savory herb butters. Two favorites are Sage-Orange Butter (2 packed tablespoons torn sage leaves and 2 tablespoons grated orange rind per 1⁄2 cup butter) and Basil-Lemon Butter (4 packed tablespoons torn basil leaves and 2 tablespoons grated lemon rind per 1⁄2 cup butter).

Sovereign bailouts and senior loans
Institutional lending in crisis is evaluated from a theoretical point of view. First, the share of senior loans in new loans is irrelevant under a given probability distribution of the country's resources. Second, seniority may partially alleviate the inefficiency of debt contracts when the distribution of resources is endogenous to the country's physical investment and effort towards success. Third, with multiple lending rate equilibria, institutional lending may induce a switch to a lower private loan rate if it can be done in a sufficiently large amount. Fourth, conditions are analyzed under which debt forgiveness is efficient under a financial shock.

Nicole Kruckman
North Park continued its hot streak Saturday afternoon with a 66-47 victory over visiting Westminster College in non-conference women's basketball action, but their eighth-straight victory of the year didn't come as easy as the final score indicated. The Blue Jays clamped down on defense and played physical, hungry basketball, but the Vikings used their speed and agility to break down the pressure and get open looks to knock down shots. NP staked a 7-0 lead through the first four minutes after a lay-up from sophomore Kayla McCall, but Westminster fought its way back into the game to close the gap to 7-5 nearly three minutes later. A quick lay-up from freshman Nicole Kruckman and a three-pointer from senior Shaina Yalda on the Vikings' next two possessions however allowed the hosts to build their lead back to 12-5 and later 23-8 after a another Kruckman lay-up before taking a 32-21 edge at halftime. Westminster then started the second half strong by cutting the lead to nine twice in the first three minutes of the half, but North Park again used its speed to get down the floor and stay in its rhythm on offense. The Vikings used a 7-2 scoring run over a four-minute span to pull ahead by 14 at 45-31 on a lay-up from Yalda and later built as much as an 18-point lead after a pair of free throws from senior Sarah Peterson with 2:56 left. North Park out-scored Westminster 4-0 in fast break points and had 34 points in the paint to the Blue Jays 14. Seven different players came off the bench to score a combined 21 points, led by 10 points from Yalda, who connected for a pair of three-pointers. Kruckman finished with a game-high 14 points on 6 of 7 shooting, while senior Kamauria Acreeadded 13 points and was a perfect 5-for-5 from the free throw line. Leigh Ann Lutz led Westminster with 14 points as the Blue Jays dropped their record to 2-6. North Park (8-0) returns to action next week when it travels to California to compete in the UC-Santa Cruz tournament. The Vikings first-round opponent is Pacific University Dec. 19 at 7 p.m. CST.

It all sounds good at first, but I'm absolutely against it. People in states that requires 40 hours of gun safety training and hands on range fire testing might get upset that outsiders aren't obliged to endure the same level of assessment. In time, pressure would come from the states and federal government to "standardize" the requirements for carry. Do we really want the federal government to take this control? Since 2A is a constitutional right (unlike driving, which is only a privilege), all states need to enact constitutional carry.

"allow individuals with the right to carry a concealed firearm in their home state to exercise that right in any other state that also allows that practice."
Dont we already get that thru state to state reciprocity???
I would think a better use of our political chips would be a Federal reciprocity bill. One that allow anyone with a concealed weapon permit to legally carry in any state they visit
As an example. I live in Co and have a ccw permit issued there. As i travel to Nv to visit family im good to go (Nv honors Co permits), but if i travel to Calif to visit family, do some diving or just go to Disneyland. I cant carry my pistol
Im thinking a civilian CCW bill like the LEO SB218. That allows LEOs to carry in any state

Give them a Law, and they'll find a way to screw you with it.
IMO, the Fed.gov is into too much stuff as it is. They are on the edge of financial collapse because they are doing so much more than the founders laid out for them ....... they can't manage the stuff they are doing now, let alone more ......
Let them into CCW, and they'll "standardize" your ability to get a permit anywhere right out of reasonable attainability.

It's an improvement over what's in effect now. But good luck trying to get us in NJ signed on.
(Note: The article states that concealed carry is allowed in all fifty states. But in reality, NJ has a de facto ban. Only LE and armored car couriers are issued permits.)

Oh believe me... I dont want any more Federal interference either but this proposal doesn't get us ANYTHING
A version of SB218 for CCW holders would at least make it the same throughout all the states. I wouldnt have to stop at the "border" to unload and case my selfdefense handgun to enter certain states
Being legal as i stand on one side of an invisible line and a criminal if i step over is just ludicrous. I lived is a town in Nv that bordered Calif. Drive 10 min from my house in the wrong direction and im a criminal....really????

We've been over this in prior threads when the legislation has come up in the past. Here's a quick summary of the problems with it.
First off, its chances at passage are dismal at best. Representatives from states like New York, California, Maryland, New Jersey, Illinois, and Massachusetts have enough seats (and influential seats on committees) in the House to kill it. And kill it they will, because they don't want folks from more permissive states flaunting their laws.
The second problem arises when someone from out of state doesn't know every wrinkle of local law. Consider Illinois' ban on carry aboard public transit. Folks are going to get busted for things they don't know are illegal, and this law doesn't protect them.
The third problem is that restrictive states will realize that, and they're going to pass all sorts of onerous local regulations and restrictions to make carry harder. This causes more problems for local citizens and creates a chilling effect all around.
This issue is something that needs to be hashed out by state governments, or in the courts. A single feel-good piece of legislation isn't going to solve it.
Sometimes it's nice not to destroy the world for a change.

IMHO, any sort of federally-created concealed carry reciprocity is the camel's nose in the tent. As I see it, once the federal government mandates CCW reciprocity, the more restrictive states (most of which have lots of votes in the HoR) will start screaming for federal standards for all CCLs. I have absolutely no interest in allowing Feinstein or her ilk any vote whatsoever in what standards my state uses for determining who gets a CHCL, especially since I have no say inw whether or not such folks get re-elected.

Agreed that this would be better off being dealt with at the state level and in the courts. Also, even if the feds mandate something such as national CCW there would have to be some serious teeth in the bill to ensure it is followed to keep some states from basically not complying in some for or fashion.
I would much prefer the states handle it, and the feds stay out of it, which is why I would contact my elected reps to voice that same opinion if this proceeds any farther. May not do any good, but there is a reason why I have made a choice not to live in a more restrictive state.

My home state has no reciprocity with any other state. A (very) few states unilaterally recognize my home state permit, but my state recognizes no others. I currently hold licenses/permits from four different states, and that allows me to carry (legally) in approximately 33 states.
I see zero downside to this proposal. It's way overdue. The notion that the states with stricter laws will somehow "force" the states with less strict laws to become more strict doesn't compute. It's probably more likely that it would go the other way, as people who live in the strict states whine to their state legislators about how unfair it is that visitors don't have to do 'X' and 'Y' and 'Z' to carry, but they (the residents) do.
Do you really think that the Pennsylvania legislature is going to require mandatory training for carry permits if they start getting letters from Chicago?

Let's look at just a few of the more restrictive states in the House of Representatives:
California: 53 votes
New York: 27 votes
New Jersey: 12
Total: 92
Looking at a sampling of the less restrictive states:
Texas: 36
Arizona: 9
Pennsylvania: 18
Florida: 27
Total: 90
So, that comes pretty close to (but not quite) even. It took "us" an extra state to get there, though, and we haven't even considered the Senate.
So, let's take a look at who has the most HoR votes:
California: 53
Texas: 36
New York: 27
Florida: 27
Illinois: 18
Pennsylvania: 18
Ohio: 16
Michigan: 14
Source: http://www.ehdp.com/vitalnet/reps.htm
So far, that looks pretty evenly split, but there are lots of states that have only 5-8 votes. My state has a whopping 4 Reps. Arkansas would have to find alliances with a LOT of other states to block passage of federal standards.

The main problem I can see with a federal reciprocity bill is that there will be a push for national standards in training or or vetting applicants. Thew only workaround I could see is possibly a separate set of standards. For example, there are different types of driver's licenses. Why not set up a separate plan for a nationwide license, yet allow states to license their own residents under a lesser standard?

The LEO sb218 standard aint that tough folks. Id happily qual to those standards and could live with people that could not being declined a permit.
Before you go all 2nd ammendment on me. We are talking about a level of skill with a deadly instrument. Not unlike a driving test. Jeeez i can hear it now. Driving is a privilige. Carrying is a RIGHT. Ok... I get it
What im saying is if you cant qual on a fairly BASIC shooting test. Maybe i dont want you banging off rounds in a parking lot cause you were getting mugged and hitting one of my loved ones
I work HARD to keep up my skill sets. Not just with firearms but emptyhands, blades AND driving
Ive seen the results of some of the CCW training out there and quite frankly some of those folks scare me

it all sounds good
but so did the Constitution. And those who wrote it were thorough, thoughtful and brilliant. Yet Our last generation of politicians have managed to tear it apart piece by piece.
No matter cleverly written, this will take a turn for the worse. It will end up being a nation wide cc restriction to match the most restrictive law so that no one will have to worry about accidently becoming unlawful.
Right off the bat, people will start buying Ma or Ca legal weapons just to be safe and off we go down the slippery slope.

Exactly what level of training would qualify? Who decides the criteria? How long does it take, how easy is it to acquire, and how much does it cost?
I know of no other right burdened with such provisions. Claiming that we need hurdles because a few folks might abuse it is the kind of argument our opponents make. We don't need to do their job for them.

There are a few reasons why I say NO!
1- Feds = more regulation
2- States rights
3- We have the right to open carry in those states that prohibit concealed carry.
For the gentleman from CO. If you travel through Clark Co. NV you are prohibited from CCW. They do not recognize any other CCW than NV.
For the standardization, I say no! I live in Utah and don't require a CCW as a LEO retired, but the wife does. Utah has one of, if not the easiest CCW permit to get. For this reason the states that are very strict in who they give them to and the training they make them get, (which IMHO is a good idea. More training is a good thing and if some are not told to do it they have the right granted them by their citizens to require this sort of thing in order to feel like they are keeping their citizens safe.
Do I agree with states with these beliefs? Yes and no.
No, as I believe in less government involvement in our rights.
Yes, because of what I said above, some people will carry because they want to be cool and not train so they can be affective. Those sort of people get others hurt.
Once you draw down on a person it is for some very easy to pull the trigger and for others very hard. Having been there done that, I know for me it is a hard thing to do and I want to give that person every opportunity to stop and not get shot, however I will and I repeat I will pull the trigger when I feel it is needed!

whats the difference?
This may result in me getting a spanking but,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, What's the difference between a CCL and a drivers license? I can drive coast to coast with my drivers license I only need to change it if I change my state of residence. Doesn't the constitution require the states to recognize the laws of other states? I can see if I move I need a new license for that state but passing threw? Seems like they should have to honor my home state license whether it's a drivers license or a CCL, I know it's not but sure seems like it should be.
Also does this line just not count in all this?
"The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States"
Well several states offer CCL? What about the rest of them?
one more thing In reality I HAVE A CONSTTUTIONAL RIGHT TO THE FIREARM no such right to the car or drivers license its a privilege.

But this is where I'm getting at with the concept of different levels of licenses. If you drive a Honda in Florida, you get a class E driver's license and you're good to go. If you want to drive a semi all over the country, you need a Class A license, and some federal regulations kick in- for example, you need a DOT physical.
Why not have a plain old state license that covers you in your state and similar states- then add to that system a national license to cover all 50 states, but requires additional training?

With the above quote as example and indulge me a bit.
This is with regards to motor vehicle law.
I obtained my DL in NYC. NY law is when you make a turn onto a 4 lane road (2 each way) left turn end you turn in the left lane and the same for right turns end in right lane.
Now the rub, here in FLA the law reads what ever lane you finish your turn in is o-kee-dokie and legal.
My point no matter what we do and where we travel we will never be totally versed in the law.
I understand MV law violations result in tickets and firearms result in possible jail time.

I propose a two-tiered license system, which I'll call Class A for the national license, and Class B for the state license.
My hypothetical law would make all current state-issued CHL's into Class B licenses by default, and prohibit the Feds from enacting any regulations affecting Class B licenses. No state would be required to honor a Class B license from another state, but all would be free to do so by choice. In effect, Class B would preserve the existing reciprocity system with no changes whatsoever.
Standards for the new Class A license would be agreed upon by a committee drawn from various different states.
The new federal Class A license would be honored in any and every state. No state would be required to issue it, but a citizen or lawful permanent resident of a non-issuing state would be permitted to obtain one elsewhere. I suggest making Class A licenses shall-issue, and adding a clause allowing a licensee to carry ONE unregistered handgun into a state that mandates handgun registration, provided that the gun is of a type that residents of the state can lawfully possess under normal circumstances. I also suggest making Class A licensees exempt from the out-of-state "Gotcha Clause" in the GFSZA, but perhaps this is REALLY wishful thinking.
I find this proposal to be a shockingly logical alternative to allowing the proverbial camel's nose in the tent for ALL CHL's.

The problem with your class A license is simple. The committee would set standards so high that it would make the license impossible except for the very well off or well connected. As is the case in many anti gun states now.
Once you get a politically appointed committee involved Things will go down hill in a hurry.

My life has always been influenced by music. My parent's loved the music of the 40's and 50's, and by the time I was a teen, I could choose my own tunes to listen to. Yeah, it was on the radio at first, along with 45's, but then came LP's and we were thrilled not to have to get up every few minutes to change a record.
Tim Abbott of Walking The Berkshires has started a great meme asking readers to list the 10 most important music albums of their teenage years.
Since I became a teen in 1963, my music choices will begin with…who else?
1. The Beatles! Although Please Please Me was their first album for that year in the US, I can say that almost every album they released was my favorite, as was almost every song. I think you will agree that there has never been, nor ever will be a musical phenom like the Beatles. Our whole world was changed by their 'sound', their politics and the clothes they wore. As you read my list, keep in mind that The Beatles newest album for every year was always a 'must have'. My favorite Beatles album would be Revolver.
2. 1964: and I was off to high school, and feeling very grown up. I wasn't, mind you, but I thought I was! The Beach Boys were making us all wish we had long blond hair and knew how to surf. I wished I could just fill out a bathing suit top. 😉 It is almost impossible to choose just one album for any of my teen years because so much good (IMHO) music was being written and sung then. Choice number 2: Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys. I'm not going by year anymore…so…
3. Choice number three would be The Sounds of Silence by Simon and Garfunkle. The beautiful and imaginative wording made us look at our world a little differently. A later favorite of mine was Bridge Over Troubled Water.
4. Diana Ross and The Supremes brought us the Motown sound, when we didn't even know what "the sound" was until then. Most often about unrequited love, it was right up the alley of any teen girl trudging her way through puberty.
5. Most people would probably include Elvis in this list, but even though I liked some of his music, and he was an important artist in this era, I was more influenced by albums like Credence Clearwater Revival as we got ourselves more and more involved in the Vietnam war. Fortunate Son from Willy and the Poorboys summed up the feelings of many teens as they saw their friends being drafted and dying too young.
6. All the hippies, and hippy-wannabes were drawn to albums like Fresh Cream and Disraeli Gears. I even made my own way to Haight-Ashbury to see if it was something for me. Nope! I was never cut out to be a "doper".
7. by 1965 we were enjoying the sounds of The Who from their album My Generation. Most of us with limited incomes could never understand the bashing of guitars onstage, and for me, it kind of took away from any respect I might have had for the band. I liked their songs though!
8. We can't forget the folk songs of Joni Mitchell like Clouds. We will never look at clouds the same way again, will we? (Or birds, if you saw Jurassic Park!)
9. 1968 seems to be a peak year, with the Tet Offensive going on in Vietnam, and one of my husband's favorites was Amboy Dukes: Journey To The Center Of The Mind (1968)
10. 1969 was the last year I was a teen. Chicago Transit Authority will always come to mind for me as kind of an inside joke for my husband and I. He and I met in May of 1970 and lived in sin :::gasp::: for a few months before we married in September. He brought some of his albums to the house one day and put Chicago on to play. I was appalled and told my girlfriend/housemate that "Eww, ick, he likes country music!". Truthfully, I was hearing it from another room at the other end of the house, but as I know now, Chicago is anything but country.
What were your favorite albums from your teen years? You can join in this informal meme and do your own and link back here. 🙂 I would like to see what music influenced your lives.

BOD scoops Six Nations gong
Ireland's Grand Slam-winning captain Brian O'Driscoll has been named Player of the Six Nations.
Last Updated: 27/03/09 5:05pm
Ireland's Grand Slam-winning captain Brian O'Driscoll has been named Player of the RBS Six Nations.
It is the third time the Leinster centre has won the award following honours in 2006 and 2007 and is the icing on the cake after guiding his country to its first clean sweep for 61 years.
O'Driscoll's four tries made him joint-top scorer in the tournament with England's Riki Flutey and he saw off competition from team-mates Paul O'Connell and Jamie Heaslip, full-backs Lee Byrne of Wales and Delon Armitage of England, and Italy loose forward Sergio Parisse.
More than 24,000 fans took part in an online poll and O'Driscoll garnered nearly 30 per cent of the votes.
Parisse, runner-up to Wales winger Shane Williams last year, was a close second again with 27.9 per cent, an impressive achievement after a campaign where Italy lost every game. O'Connell finished third.
"It has been such an immense week already and to be named the player of the championship is a fantastic end to what has been a phenomenal championship," O'Driscoll said.
"This year's Six Nations has been a special tournament for me and the team for lots of reasons - it's been fantastic for Irish rugby and for the whole country."

What Kind Of Doilies Do You Use Under Your Cakes?
Decorating By Cher2051 Updated 18 May 2013 , 6:37am by megpi
I need some help as to what kind of doilies to use under my cakes. The ones that I am using tend to tear when the cake is being cut and makes a mess....any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
AWhat is a cake doilie?
Really? or are you being sarcastic :)
I haven't seen a doilie used under a cake in a decade or longer. Because, you know, they tear and get paper into the cake and make a mess.
Seriously, I have been doing cakes for 25 years and have never used a doilie under one. I did use a doilie on one once, to make a pattern with powdered sugar,(then took the doilie off) but then the PS melted into the icing and just looked like a foggy scum pattern, so I won't ever do that again.
I think I remember seeing a doilie under a cake in my 1979 Wilton year book, but I don't reference it that often, since it was the year I was born, I noticed cakes are done quite differently now.. ;-)
But I think you are safe to not use a doilie anymore. If you insist, maybe use it under your cake board, and not under the cake, itself.
BTW, what is the point?
Well since it has been a long while since I have done cakes I was just wondering...so since no one uses doilies anymore what do you cover your cake boards with? Thank You!
Well since it has been a long while since I have done cakes I was just wondering...so since no one uses doilies anymore what do you cover your cake boards with? Thank You!
I set the cake directly on the board, (same size as the cake) stuck with a little blob of icing. After icing, I put it on a larger board either covered in fondant, (stuck with white chocolate) or on a board covered in fanci-foil (stuck down with either double sided tape, or tape loops, or white chocolate, whichever is handiest)
Or, it is for home use, I use a dinner plate with no board, lol.
Cake drums covered in food-safe foil or fondant go under the base of the entire cake. Individual cake boards (grease-proof side up) go right under the cake (touching the cake itself). Some people make their own boards that hold the entire cake by cutting foam core boards or even gluing multiple cake boards together to make it sturdier. You can typically cover a board in fondant or foil. You can also google basic information on how to do this and where to buy these.
I only use a cake drum if it's a heavy, tiered cake. otherwise I use a slightly larger board. i never use anything that will make the cake slide off the board. it's only cause for anxiety.
Wilton (full lines available at Michaels or JoAnn crafts) now has some very cute presentation boards that are printed or finished with a food safe surface. They also have just printed sheets to put on a cake board. I used one that had a black and white damask pattern that looked nice with the theme of the cake I was doing. While not ideal for a lot of commercial uses, they are great for the hobby baker to easily give some extra style to cake presentation. http://www.wilton.com/store/site/department.cfm?id=3E305632-475A-BAC0-5B78578E30610AB8&fid=76ABA7C5-475A-BAC0-56868CD4CC3B55C5
http://www.globalsugarart.com/doilies-c-869_876.html has some updated versions of the lacy doily. Like others have mentioned, they really aren't used much except for a vintage design. I won't say there isn't a place for them at all, but mostly cake presentation has moved away from the lacy doily look.
None. So far, either a dinner plate, if it's baked in a Bundt mold, or in-pan, if it's a sheet cake. Probably this year's Leland Awards cake will be depanned, mounted on a board, and boxed, but that assumes I have more time than I did for the first one.
Thanks for the advice :)
I like to just use parchment rounds that are the same size as the cake board the finished cake is on. They keep the board from getting oily but don't stand out.

SUBOTICA, Yugoslavia (Jul. 18)
In the gloriously ornate, tragically abandoned synagogue in this ethnically mixed town in Serbia's Vojvodina province, a Roman Catholic choir sings "Shalom Aleichem" to an audience of Hungarians, Serbs, Croats and Jews.
The song was part of a unique ecumenical service that joined Yugoslavia's only rabbi, Cadik Danon, with local Catholic, Protestant and Serbian Orthodox clergy in prayers and scriptural readings.
The service was one of the key elements in commemorations held earlier this month to mark the deportation of Subotica's Jews during World War II.
The commemorations, organized by Subotica city officials and the city's 250-member Jewish community, honored the memory of 4,000 Subotica Jews deported to Auschwitz and killed 50 years ago.
Held against the background of war and ethnic tension in the former Yugoslavia, the commemoration also stressed the need for tolerance among all religious and ethnic groups.
"It is very important that in an abandoned synagogue there should be prayer again," said Mirko Vajcenfeld, president of the Subotica Jewish community. "(We hope) this will be a link that brings together the various communities."
David Albahari, president of the Federation of Yugoslav Jewish Communities, said, "The commemoration gave us the chance to remind others of the importance of memory.
"Memory was really the thing that actually made the existence of the Jewish people possible over all these centuries — the memory of good and bad things without any insistence on revenge if the memories were bad," he said.
Subotica, located on the border with Hungary, was part of Hungary until World War I and was occupied by Hungary again during World War II.
Its more than 5,000 Jews were deported to Auschwitz in 1944, along with the Jews of the rest of Hungary. Some 4,000 perished, and most of the survivors emigrated to Israel or elsewhere after the war.
Similar commemorations of the deportations have taken place this year in many Hungarian towns.
Subotica's 120,000 population is an ethnic mix of Hungarians, Croats, Serbs and others, and the city prides itself on its history of tolerance among ethnic groups — a tolerance that has managed to persist despite the ethnic conflict and polarization in most of the rest of former Yugoslavia.
Today Subotica is one of the few cities in Serbia that is governed by parties opposed to the policies of the central government of Slobodan Milosevic.
Led by Mayor Jozsef Kasza, the city has hosted many peace workshops and promoted efforts to foster tolerance.
The commemoration of the Jewish deportation and a project to restore the synagogue — a glorious example of Hungarian art nouveau architecture built in 1902 — were part of this local commitment to maintain the multiculturalism.
And though the commemorations were partly funded with money from the Serbian government, Serbian and Yugoslav federal officials did not respond to invitations to attend.

Making his first start since the ill-fated trip to Washington, Oregon State quarterback Sean Mannion tossed four touchdowns and the Beavers blew up the visiting California Bears 62-14.
Mannion, starting in place of the injured Cody Vaz, threw touchdowns to four different receivers. Markus Wheaton led all players with seven catches for 99 yards while Terron Ward carried 14 times for 128 yards and two touchdowns.
After Wheaton's 11-yard score put the Beavers (8-2, 6-2) up 7-0 in the first, Cal answered with a 9-yard Isi Sofele run. That was as close as the game would get because the Beavers would go on to score six unanswered touchdowns. Cornerback Jordan Poyer also picked up his sixth interception of the season.
"We were aggressive … we mixed in some runs nicely and the guys blocked them pretty well and we made some big plays," Oregon State coach Mike Riley told the Pac-12 Network after the game. "That helped a lot."
The 62 points was Oregon State's highest point total in more than four years. Cal ends the season on a five-game losing streak, 3-9 overall and 2-7 in Pac-12 play. Allan Bridgford, making his second start at quarterback for the injured Zach Maynard was 18-of-31 for 132 yards with no touchdowns and an interception.
At question is the status of Cal coach Jeff Tedford, who according to numerous reports will meet with athletic director Sandy Barbour on Sunday to talk about his future. Ironically, it was Riley who started the season potentially on the hot seat.
Oregon State hosts the Ducks next week in the Civil War.

Several thefts reported at a University of Georgia dormitory Wednesday are under investigation by UGA Police.
The thefts occurred at Rutherford Hall on South Lumpkin Street where several teens were staying at the dormitory for a camp. Most thefts were less than $30 in cash, but a total of almost $150 is missing from eight separate rooms, police said. The teens were not in the rooms at the time, and each reported that their doors were locked.

Manopause and too much popApril 20th, 2012 9:25 am
If you tuned in to Mix 96 this morning during my weekly visit with Ron and Amy, you heard us talking about "manopause."
That's what a story in Parenting magazine jokingly calls the hormonal change that happens with men become fathers. A recent long-term study shows that when a father brings home a baby, his testosterone levels drop.
Those levels continue to decrease the more time he spends with the newborn, the story says.
So, it's not just moms who go through biological changes when they enter parenthood. It happens to dads, too. Who knew?! I must have been too sleep-deprived to notice.
And speaking of noticing … How could someone drink two or more GALLONS of soda-pop every day and not think, "Yikes, this might be too much."
Sadly, it's too late for a 30-year-old mom of eight children in New Zealand, where authorities are trying to determine if her Cola addiction played a role in her death. Natasha Harris died of a heart attack, but she also suffered from low potassium, which investigators believe could have been caused by her excessive pop-drinking and overall poor nutrition.
And she smoked 30 cigarettes per day, too, according to her partner, who is quoted in the story.
A major soft drink company issued a statement in response to her death, saying even water can be deadly in excessive amounts.
Something to think about …
Hope you have a safe and happy Friday, a great weekend and an even better next week. I'll be out of the office, frolicking around with my family. See you when I return.

Catherine McCord – author of "Weelicious: One Family, One Meal" – stopped by Access Hollywood Live with some great recipes and tips on how to turn last night's dinner into today's lunch for your kids!
Un-fried Chicken Tenders
(Makes 4 servings)
1 cup Italian bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1 pound chicken tenders*
Olive or canola oil spray
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and spray a baking sheet with olive or canola oil spray.
2. Whisk the bread crumbs, salt, paprika, garlic powder, and flour in a shallow bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with 2 tablespoons of water.
Tip: This can also be done with pounded boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
Sweet Broiled Salmon
(Makes 4 servings)
2 tablespoons honey or agave nectar
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar or cider vinegar
Four 4- to 6-ounce salmon fillets, skinned, rinsed, and patted dry
Toasted sesame seeds, for garnish (cook them briefly in a dry pan over low heat)
1. Place the honey, soy sauce, ginger, and vinegar in a bowl and whisk to combine
2. Place the salmon fillets in a glass bowl and top with the marinade.
3. Marinate for 15 minutes on the counter (or up to 3 hours in the fridge).
4. Preheat the broiler.
5. Lay the fillets on a foil-lined sheet pan, place in the middle rack of the oven, and broil for about 8 minutes, longer if the fillets are more than 1.5 inches thick, taking care that they don't burn. The salmon will be just cooked through and the sauce is golden and bubbly.
6. Sprinkle the fish with toasted sesame seeds and serve.
Tip: If you want to cut down on clean up, you can pour the marinade in a Ziploc bag with the fish and marinate.
Veg-wee (Veggie) Burgers
(Makes 4 burgers or 8 mini burgers)
1/2 cup bulgur wheat
One 15-ounce can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup grated carrot
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil
Accompaniments: bread, pita or hamburger buns, lettuce, tomato, ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, avocado, pickles
1. Place the bulgur wheat and 1 cup water in a small pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed. The bulgur will be slightly al dente. Set aside to cool.
2. Place the pinto beans in a food processor and puree.
3. In a large bowl, combine the beans, cheese, carrot, salt, garlic, onion powder, and cooked bulgur and
mix thoroughly.
4. Evenly divide the mixture and form it into patties.*
5. Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat and cook the burgers for 3 minutes on each side.
6. Serve with your desired accompaniments.
The patties can be frozen on a baking sheet for 1 hour and placed in a large zip-top bag or individually wrapped and frozen. When ready to eat, defrost and then cook.

At least two authors of my acquaintance have spoken up this week about a publisher, Undead Press, and an editor, Anthony Giangregorio, who accepted their stories for anthologies and published them after making major changes—to include changing the name of the story (a move of debatable immorality, to be sure), and adding in a touch of RAPE (much less debatable!) in another—without any consultation with the authors. The authors didn't even know the damage was done until after the books went to print because they didn't receive galley proofs—not even electronic ones. I submit the blogs of authors Alyn Day and Mandy DeGeit for your consideration:
The anthology was released under the name of a different publisher, Undead Press, and my story was no longer my story. It had been butchered. I sat in my livingroom with one of the 6 copies I had purchased, flipping through the pages, eager to see my words in print… only they weren't my words. It wasn't even my TITLE. Parts of my story had been cut out, names and details had been changed, things I was never made aware of and had never agreed to. –Alyn Day
They turned a non-gendered character into a boy, they named the best friend, they created a memory for the main character about animal abuse. They added a suggestion of rape at the end… –Mandy DeGeit
If you've been around the block a bit as an author, the rest of this post is TL;DR. Please just disseminate as widely as possible so that everyone knows who sucks and why. But since the authors in question are new, and got sucked in by a predator, and because I, in my larval stage, had a near miss with similar idiocy, I want to say a few things to the new authors who may be reading my blog.
- What Happened Was Bullshit.All of it. The only changes an editor has the ethical right to make without consulting the author are grammatical and typographical corrections. Plain and simple. As an editor, I've been privileged to edit authors' first published stories and the work of Bram Stoker Award winners, plus everything in between. I am not afraid to offer suggestions to any of them. But all they are is suggestions. If an author doesn't like my suggestion, these are the ONLY options:
- The author makes the changes;
- The author says not happening;
- The editor says I'd rather have the author's preferred version than nothing and takes the submission without suggestions being used;
- The editor says it's my way or the highway.
Note the distinct absence of Editor Does Whatever the Fuck he Wants with the Story.
- You Should Always Get a Galley. I've NEVER had to ask for one. EVER. My publishers have always sent me a copy of what the finished work is going to look like before going to print. I began editing my first anthology a mere three months after my first serious publication, and published the book six months after that. Guess what? I sent the contributors a galley before it went to publication. I was a NOOB and I understood that concept. If this assclown is calling himself a publisher, he should have understood that, too. Which brings me to my last point.
- It's Only Your Fault if you Get Fooled Again the Same Way. I knew from the get-go that authors get galleys. It's not any new author's fault if they didn't know that. Some people have a different learning curve, and honestly, I was surrounded by an amazing group of mentors and fellow authors from Day One. The blame for this shit is firmly on the shoulders of Undead Press and Mr. Giangregorio. If you call yourself an editor, or hang your shingle out as a publisher, you are saying I have my shit together. I want to enter into a professional arrangement with authors and I know how to do this. An author has a right to expect this of a publisher and/or editor—though, granted, those of us who've been around a bit know how to smell a rat. If I had made a mistake like this during my first stint as editor, the only appropriate response would have been a sincere public apology and immediate implementation of a solution.
Having said that, I'd like to conclude by asking Mr. Giangregorio to come on out—in the comments section of this blog, even, if he'd like—and discuss what he's going to do to make this shit right.

LONDON (Jul. 14)
Jewish sources in the Soviet Union reported today growing signs of a concerted crackdown by the Soviet authorities aimed at isolating the Soviet Jewish community from the outside world. The campaign of harassment has taken a new turn with the announcement by Intourist, the official Soviet travel organization, that "Tourist, Zionists" will be regarded as persons "interfering in Soviet internal affairs."
The Intourist announcement followed an article in the Soviet weekly "Nedelya" which warned that the Soviets would deal firmly with American Jews who come to the USSR to meet local Jewish activists and distribute "Zionist literature." The magazine wrote: "Zionist emissaries are trying to penetrate the Soviet Union like cockroaches, through all the holes. They use international tourism for these purposes. Tourists-Zionists appear in different dress, But their aim is the same–to fan nationalist and emigration fever."

Not reporting a shooting right away, dragging the bodies from where they were shot and shooting them as they lay wounded on the floor are all bad things to do.
All quite true.
And yet it was a case where
1) The intruders were definitely thieves, possibly worse;
2) The original shooting
could have
been justifiable;
3) The intruders were not "the wife or G/F ex, or better new boyfriend"; and
4) The homeowner was definitely not "just fine" when the police arrived.
Note, too, that MN has a very strong Castle Doctrine in the black-letter law (which is as far as most people ever look). Their case law is a little more nuanced than the black-letter law would indicate.
In any case, this isn't an area where we can say, "Well, all you have to do is [blah blah blah]."
In order to have a realistic hope of being "just fine" -- no matter
the dead body in your living room belongs to! -- you actually need to know what the law is, in advance; you need to make a conscious attempt to stay on the right side of the law both before and during the event; you have to avoid doing stupid things after the event; and you have to present the facts in such a way that others understand and agree with what you did.

Name Help
Ok so I am just toying around with some possible names for my baby. I have an Amelia, Liam and a Violet, possibly having a third girl - most names that I like have an issue. Although, I love the name Maeve for a middle name ( would consider it for a first but does it have the wow factor ? ).
I like Hazel and Scarlett but they might not be the best choices because they are colour names with Violet? Do the -ette names sound too similar to Violet as well? Scarlett is really growing on me.
I love Eloise ( and it would be my number one choice) but my SIL and family drama has tainted that name for me.
I love Emmaline but think it is too close to Amelia.
I like Seraphina but am not fond of the short form Sera and the Ben Affleck connection.
I like Carolyne and Madeleine but am not a fan of the short forms Cara, Carol or Maddie.
I kind of like Thea - but our last name starts with a T and I think it would sound too weird.
I love girly names - no unisex ones - and I was hoping not to use the letters A, V or L as the first letter. For some reason, I am not fond of F names either.
Any suggestions?- I watch this site everyday for inspiration but so far havent found the perfect name.

I think Hazel is usable with a sister named Violet. Scarlet, not so much, as it is more obviously a colour name, and the endings are too similar.
As for suggestions, here are some that are similar to the names you've listed...
It's hard to find "the perfect name"! Keep looking!
Girls - Jane - Eleanor - Matilda - Caroline - Rosalind - Beatrix
Boys - Arthur - Desmond - Edmund - Edwin - Frederick

You may like Aloisa. I've been loving it for the past week or so. It's very similar to Eloise, but may not have the negative associations that you mentioned.
Violet and Scarlett could work just fine together, in my opinion. I think they sound different enough to avoid confusion. The emphasis of each name is on the first syllable, and those syllables aren't similar in the least. The matching -ett part really isn't emphasized when said aloud. And I actually think of Violet as a flower name rather than a color name, so I wouldn't have even realized that you have two color names together. If people do realize it, that's okay. There is nothing wrong with naming children after beautiful colors. And your daughters will grow up and spread their wings and have their own social circles apart from each other anyway, so ultimately it doesn't matter how well their names flow together, it just matters that you gave them each beautiful names that you love.

About OnlineCasino.ca
It's a jungle out there, in the world of online casinos that is. Finding the right one is like playing Russian roulette: you spin the chamber and pray to the gambling gods that you get lucky, because if you're not, then you might as well be dead. If that sounds extreme, think of all the possible problems that could arise from picking a bad casino website: identity theft, loss of personal, banking and other crucial financial information, or it could be as simple yet annoying as losing valuable playing time on a site that just doesn't cut it for you. No need to fret, you found a path through the jungle, you've come to us.
What we do
OnlineCasino.ca is dedicated to producing the most complete list of top quality websites for Canadian casino players. See our high quality and detailed Gambling FAQ & Guide for answers to common questions. In a nutshell, here's what we do:

Meet the Team
Who are we? That's a fair question. You want to know who is giving you advice so we have prepared a brief introduction to the brains behind our casino site ratings.
James has spent far too many hours in front of a computer playing blackjack and baccarat. If you ask him he will say he is no expert, but he makes a good living from playing so we consider him pretty awesome.
Sophie has worked in the casino industry for over 10 years in various capacities, giving her excellent insight into the workings of online gambling sites. That allows us to know which sites put their money where their mouth is.
Robin is our go-to guy for slots gaming. He loves nothing more than spending his evenings in the pursuit of progressive jackpots, and he firmly maintains that not all slots are made equal. His bank account balance tells us he is on to something.
Our Review Process
Thousands of online casinos enter the market on a daily basis and we see to it that we're always on top of the game, carefully judging sites so that our list contains only the latest and very best.
Each site is independently audited for random number generatorp like eCOGRA and checked for secure data encryption like Verisign.
We check the T&C's, privacy policy, promotions, real money rules and downloads of each site for fairness and security.
Our reviewers use anonymous accounts so the poker sites don't know it's us. We also play for real money to ensure bonus codes are honoured.
Every site is regularly and thoroughly checked for software quality and ease of use. If a site has a functional problem, we let you know about it.
Our Rating System
Thousands of online casinos enter the market on a daily basis and we see to it that we're always on top of the game, carefully judging sites so that our list contains only the latest and very best.
Our rating system includes:
Customer Service: This is one of the most important things we consider. We make sure each site we list has stellar customer service. Like any other applications, bugs and other software problems may occur from time to time. And although our reviewers thoroughly inspect each casino's software to guarantee that it downloads quickly, installs easily, as bug free as possible, and safe and reliable. (making sure encryption is the highest possible for your personal and financial safety), glitches do occur. And when this happens, the customer service must be readily available and also knowledgeable enough to assist you.
Game Variety: Playing is only fun if the games you love are available. We only choose sites that offer the most variety of games and at the same time have the traffic to build up big jackpots.
Online Versions: We check for Internet casinos that offer browser based platforms as well so you can play on a multitude of devices on the go, wherever you are, whenever you like.
Free Play: We value our players' time and money so much that we take into consideration the needs of beginners. Hence, we choose sites that offer free games so beginners can get to try out different ones and be comfortable enough with the games and learn the rules before risking real money on them. Even advanced and professional players can benefit from free games by using it to work on their strategies and develop new skills.
What we don't do
We take pride in what we do and we do our job very well, that is providing you with the list of the best online Canadian casinos.
We don't tell you how to play the game. Strategy is fluid and varies from player to player. We look for online casino sites that will help you develop your own strategies and learn from playing with others. After all, practice makes perfect.

HI Liz,
Vitamin D is becoming the wonder drug of the decade. The more we learn about the functions of vitamin D, the more we want people to have adequate levels in their blood. There are some data suggesting that low vitamin D levels are associated with more active RA. However, the only real way to know this for sure is in a double blinded placebo controlled study in which vitamin D is compared to a placebo. We are one of the institutions looking into this. Anyway, yes, it is possible that you are feeling better because your vitamin D levels are up.

Looks good, but unnatural
I like the contrast you have used between her dark skin and her light hair. The arms crossing over her chest and the way she supports her chin come together to convey both a certain level of contemplation and innocense that works to complement her nudity (which conveys purity in this image, rather than sexuality--another good effect). Also, excellent detail on the eyes. I can tell you spent a lot of effort getting those just right.
However, I think you are using a little too much canvas when drawing her face. Given the rest of her style, the eyes should be a little bigger while her lips and nose should be a little smaller. That would bring help to bring her facial features more in proportion with each other and with the size of her face. She is missing one of the lines that helps define her left breast, it just disappears under her arm. That missing detail hurts the image substantially.
Overall, good work, but I think you can do better.

For the ninth year in a row, UM has been awarded a top score for sound fiscal management.
Coral Gables (October 07, 2009) —
For the ninth year in a row, the University of Miami has been awarded a top score for sound fiscal management from one of the nation's leading independent charity evaluators. UM has received Charity Navigator's coveted 4-star rating for its "ability to efficiently manage and grow its finances," a designation that comes at a time when both the recession has delivered a blow to thousands of charities across the nation and donors are demanding more transparency and quantifiable results from the organizations they choose to support.
"The University of Miami continuously strives for excellence in all aspects of our work, and we are pleased with this recognition," said Sergio M. Gonzalez, UM's senior vice president of University Advancement and External Affairs. "We are very grateful to our supporters, and we owe them efficiency and accountability in everything we do."
Ken Berger, president and CEO of Charity Navigator, said UM's ninth consecutive 4-star rating "differentiates the University from its peers and demonstrates to the public it is worthy of their trust."
He noted that less than 1 percent of the charities rated by his organization have received at least nine consecutive 4-star evaluations, which indicates that UM "consistently executes its mission in a fiscally responsible way and outperforms most other charities in America."
Forbes, BusinessWeek, and Kiplinger's Financial Magazine are among the national publications that have profiled Charity Navigator's method of applying data-driven analysis to the charitable sector.
The Mahwah, New Jersey-based organization uses a set of financial ratios and performance categories to evaluate two broad areas of financial health: organizational efficiency and organizational capacity. It then combines these findings to give an overall rating. Charity Navigator independently analyzed UM's financial performance in seven key areas (program expenses, administrative expenses, fundraising expenses, fundraising efficiency, primary revenue growth, program expenses growth, and working capital ratio) to give the University an overall rating of 69.42 on a scale of 0-70.
