I thought all three guys were terrible in that group song. I, personally, felt that there was something very off through the whole thing and it involved all three guys. They were jointly and individually awful.
Also, it was obvious that lyrics had been forgotten and when he got to Lazaro that is what was confirmed....I heard the word "I" not "we" and I actually watched it again this morning.....that doesn't mean I'm right...it may mean I wasn't listening well. I don't see his admitting that he forgot the lyrics as making an excuse...it's owning his failure in this case. He obviously does struggle in this area, but I refuse to jump on the band wagon of bashing him for this issue. This is a kid who obviously has struggled all his life with the speech issue, and it just may be that those struggles were a bit broader than that based on his struggles with learning songs. It's unfortunate that he is struggling in this area and I do think he was the worst for the past two weeks and probably should go home. I just can't help but care about this kid who already seems to struggle with self-esteem. While I do think his time has come, I don't want it to be a mean nasty exit.
Burnell, if indeed he was mocking Laz, needs to get over himself and he owes Laz an apology! That is cruel and shows a very nasty streak!!

Kohl's Has Lots to Prove after 2Q Report: Analysts
Kohl's (KSS) reported declining second quarter profits as the department store chain was forced to cut prices and now must work through extra inventory it added in the second quarter. Kohl's successfully cut expenses and its gross margin fell by less than expected, helping the company beat EPS expectations. But the company's problems are expected to persist: it cut its full-year guidance to $4.50-$4.65 from $4.75. Shares fell 1.4%.
The company needs to show it can make progress at working through inventory and boosting sales in the near term for investors to gain confidence, writes Deutsche Bank analyst Charles Grom.
"Looking ahead, the next 90+ days for the team from Menomonee Falls will be critical . . . in fact, one could argue the August period alone (easiest compare of 3Q; Sept/Oct very challenging) is very important. Said differently, if SSS can rebound into the "low-single digit" range and inventory levels can be well managed, we think the stock can move into the high $50's."
Early signs, however, point to the potential for a rebound, writes Stifel Nicolaus analyst Richard Jaffe.
"Management indicated that inventory dollars are up 8% per square foot and units have increased even more. This is consistent with management's plan to rebuild inventory to 2010 levels in an effort to drive sales. July sales were stronger than anticipated, a possible early positive indication of the appeal of the new merchandise. We believe effective marketing, sharper prices and attractive, nationally recognized merchandise should drive sales in 2H."

The Houston County Board was asked to support changes brought on by the resignation of two key employees at their April 16 board meeting.
First, public health home health care coordinator Dana Helton tendered her resignation to accept a job closer to home. Helton has served the county for 14 years and will be sorely missed, according to her supervisor Deb Rock.
"She represented the county so well," Rock said.
To fill the gap brought on by this change, Rock requested that a another staff member, Marcia Bauer, be temporarily promoted and Mary Thompson take on additional duties as well. The request was approved and will allow public health "to function as an efficient department in the interim," Rock said.
Second, social services supervisor Karen Sanness tendered her resignation as the interim supervisor. The announcement did not surprise the county board.
"I think she'll be missed, and I can understand the stress she has gone through," Commissioner Steve Schuldt said.
"It sounds like an overwhelming [situation]," Commissioner Teresa Walter added.
Human Resource Director Tess Arrik-Kruger warned it will take three months to get a qualified individual to fill the role, and department head Linda Bahr was eager to begin the search.
"One way or another we do need a supervisor in that position," Bahr said.
The board was hesitant to react so quickly, saying that a position evaluation should take place to review job duties. But with some pressing, the board agreed to post the position.
"The case load is increasing in Houston County," Bahr said, with Kruger adding that it is a challenging position.
Sanness agreed to stay on until a suitable replacement can be found.
Highway shop
In light of the county highway department's need for a new facility, or major renovation of the old facility, the board entertained a presentation by Bob Sworski of CBS Squared, an architectural firm.
Sworski has more than 20 years of experience, much of which has dealt with municipal buildings. He's also served on township government himself and said that experience has helped him serve his clients well.
He said whatever the county decides, it must, "Plan, plan, plan."
"Design from the inside out, and establish life cycle costs, develop a cost versus benefit analysis, consider sustainability, consider co-locating two departments," Sworski said.
He talked about proper design as it relates to surface area and cost. For example, nooks and crannies have to have snow removed, lighting, etc. More surface area equals more cost for materials.
He talked a little about what different building materials cost these days and said, overall office space runs $150 per square foot; heated vehicle storage, $90; maintenance bays, $116; and unheated storage, $65.
One recent project he was involved with ran $14.2 million for 100,000 square feet of space.
"There's cost for not doing something as well," he said.
"I can tell you right now we're experiencing some good bidding. Good luck to you. I know it's a big thing to wrap your arms around," he said.
The presentation was informative in nature. The county has not committed to a remodel or a new building at this point but continues to gather information.
Commissioner Steve Schuldt thanked Sworski for the information and said, "I take it it does cost a lot more to build a commercial building than to stay in compliance."
Other business
In other business, the board approved an agreement with Mead & Hunt to prepare plans for the rehabilitation of the airport runway and apron.
The contract shall not exceed $88,000, and County Engineer Brian Pogodzinski said he believes he will be able to significantly reduce that total.
The board approved a $4,800 contract with Structures Unlimited for an analysis on retrofitting the Spring Grove salt shed, which keeps county salt and sand contained and dry.
The shed was not built to code by Coverall, which has since gone out of business.
"It does not meet combined snow and wind load – that's the issue," Pogodzinski said. The county attorney, "recommends we do something and keep people out in the meantime," he added.
The study will help determine a course of action.

There is a certain romance to twins. Generally what is envisioned is the double stroller being pushed down the street, garnering all of the attention, the identical outfits accentuating twins' likeness, and admiration of the parents from all for surviving such a grueling infant period. There's a certain glory to twins. And all of this is fair, because twins are special. It is a double blessing. Take the most important gift you can receive, double it, and you have twins.
But twins create a high-risk pregnancy, and an obstetrician must watch this pregnancy very carefully, because a twin gestation makes more likely a most dangerous complication–premature delivery. If a woman carrying a single baby were to wonder how much more pregnant she can get at, say, eight months, imagine what it feels like when hitting that point at six months with twins. If it seems like there's no more room for baby in a single pregnancy, then twins get just plain ridiculous. The body thinks so, too, and tends to want to deliver prematurely what it thinks is just a single big mature baby months before twins are ready.
Vigilance for premature labor can involve medicines for premature labor, hospitalization, weeks of bed rest, and still….a premature delivery. Another concern is whether one twin will get more than its share of oxygen and nutrition at the expense of the other. Called discordancy, one twin will grow too big and the other not enough. Ironically, this puts both in grave danger, as the overload on the larger twin can be just as lethal as the deprivation to the smaller.
Many ultrasounds are needed in twin gestations to make sure the babies are both growing at roughly the same rate. If twins are identical, there's a chance that they might share the same sac instead of there being a dividing membrane between them; this makes cord entanglement a real possibility, putting both babies in mortal danger. Once again, ultrasound comes to the rescue to show the membrane that would put that worry to rest. All of the complications of a single pregnancy can have earlier onset in twins, since there's an obvious increase in the give-and-take in the mother-baby physiologic relationship.
Preeclampsia (toxemia), consisting of a symptom collection of high blood pressure, swelling, kidney problems, and possibility of seizures, is more likely to occur (and earlier) in a twin pregnancy. Placental accidents are more likely too. Placenta previa, wherein the placenta lies over the opening of the womb, blocking the route out for a vaginal delivery, is more likely because there's more placenta there and less space for it to occupy. Placental abruption, a premature tearing away of the placenta, is also more likely than in single pregnancies. This event could result in significant blood loss, danger of transfusion for the mother, and mortal risk for the babies.
Delivery poses dangers as well. The jumbling together of two babies makes for frequent abnormal positioning of one or both twins. Breech babies are frequent, as are impossible-to-deliver presentations like shoulder- or transverse-presentations. This "malpresentation" can make C-section the safest way to deliver. Prolapse of an umbilical cord is more frequent with such malpresentations, so therefore it is more frequent with twins. A cord prolapse can pinch the cord, cutting off oxygen to the baby.
And now the good news: modern obstetrical care and careful surveillance of two babies usually yields a good result. Even though multiple gestation is definitely high risk, we have at our disposal tools to closely monitor the pregnancy and birth and intervene when necessary. Having twins is the most dramatic argument for good prenatal care, because it's a situation where prenatal care can be so crucial for a healthy outcome.
The special gift of twins occurs in slightly more than one in a hundred pregnancies, but this number will certainly change for the bigger as more infertility drugs are used in more aggressive attempts at pregnancy. As obstetricians dedicated to the best prenatal care, we know we'll be seeing more of this than previously.
Let the romance continue, we're ready.

Can a tummy tuck and breast reduction surgery be done at same time?
Yes, a Tummy Tuck and a Breast Reduction can safely be performed at the same time. Make sure that your body will be able to tolerate these two rather extensive surgical procedures. Consider starting with your primary care or family practice physician to obtain a baseline EKG and Cardiopulmonary Clearance. Next, make sure your surgeon has the capability to monitor you for at least 24 hours following these procedures. If they plan to send you home after a Tummy Tuck and a Breast Reduction it may be in your best interest to consider another practitioner. Many members of the ASAPS use what are called Critical Pathways when performing combined procedures to reduce post operative complications and improve outcomes.
These Critical Pathways in Cosmetic Surgery are based upon years of Clinical Experience, Education, Training and Documented Evidence-Based Data/ Analysis. An example of one such pathway developed by the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS) is the Pathways for the Prevention of Adverse Events in Ambulatory Surgery (2011) developed by their Patient Safety Committee. This publication assists ASPS members in significantly reducing adverse events and unfavorable outcomes in surgery. Most members of the ASAPS are usually members of the ASPS. They consider patient safety as one of the most important facets of their profession.
Gary R. Culbertson, MD, FACS
While technically possible to do multiple procedures like this, there is no question that the complication rate will rise with longer surgery, particularly when combined with tummy tucks. It is safer to have the tummy tuck performed separately and then to have the breast reduction several months later. Remember that it is not "what we can get away with," but what is uniformly safe. A little common sense goes a long way here.
Technically the answer is yes... but the techniques selected will have an influence on the potential complications. Less incisions and less cutting theoretically will provide the least risks and this would include the vertical reduction technique and lipo-abdominoplasty over the traditional anchor scar and standard tummy tuck. In the ideal world, I prefer to do one procedure first and use the second procedure as an opportunity to revise the results from the first procedure but some do not have the luxury of having two recovery periods.
Your surgeon you've chosen should be able to give you his/her experience and if you're willing to accept the risks (which can sometimes be devastating with skin loss), then it can certainly be done.
A tummy tuck and breast reduction is a great combination of surgeries to be done at the same time. I frequently do these together and also do liposuction of the hips and abdomen. When appropriate I will even preform liposuction of other parts of the body such as lateral back, lateral thighs, medial thighs and knees. If the patient is in good health without any medial problems there should be no problem with this amount of surgery as long as it can be completed in less then 6-7 hours. I ask my patients to have an evaluation by their primary care physician to clear them for surgery. While there are more risks with the longer surgery, I believe that the risks of multiple surgeries is also a problem. There is also the problem of multiple recovery periods with multiple different procedures.
Make sure you are in the hand of a well trained and experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who has done a good number of these combined procedures. Ask your surgeon exactly how long the combined procedures will take. Also, ask to talk to patients who have had such surgery and ask to see before and after photos.
A Tummy Tuck and Breast Reduction can easily be done at the same time. The Tummy tuck should be done first to make sure that the breast position is proper. Both are big procedures and your surgeon should make sure your health is such that you can tolerate them together. I also insist that my patients having this combination stay overnight in the hospital. Most go home the next morning or by the next afternoon.
Absolutely. This combination is very common in women who have had children. It does a great job of correcting two undesirable post-partum changes. It is also very common to perform tummy tuck and breast lift together. Total operating time is about 6 hours, which is very safe for any healthy woman. Many women opt for combination surgery to reduce their overall recovery time. Discuss it with an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon.

Ask a Lawyer and Get Answers to Your Legal Questions
If the building permit was taken out to fix a code violation citation 10 years age, but the repair work was never done by the owner, then the building is still in violation, and the city can require you to do the work - maybe. Depending on how old the citation is, it might have expired and if it was not of record officially when you bought the property, it would not bind you. That said, the city can still pursue code violations against you, but they have to start from scratch, i.e. new inspections, notices, opportunities to repair etc...
I hope this information is helpful and that you will enter a positive rating. I thank you for submitting your question to Pearl-Just Answer. We appreciate your business. If you need clarification or additional information, please send me a Reply and I will be happy to explain further. Please consult a local attorney to verify the accuracy of this information according to your state's laws.
The Bld Permit Was For An Addition. The Addition Was Completed Sometime Before I Bought The House. There Was Nothing On The Title About Inspections, Permits Or Code Violations.
Then I have no idea what your building inspector or DA is talking about fixing now. It can't be base on a 20 year old room addition. You must demand a detailed inspection report showing any code violations that you are responsible for fixing. If you disagree, a real estate attorney who is familiar with construction issues should be consulted.

Marco acquires Davis copier business
WILLMAR -- Marco Inc. of St. Cloud, Davis Typewriter Co. Inc. and Ed Davis Business Machines announce the sale of the Davis companies' copier business to Marco.
Davis Typewriter Co. Inc. has locations in Worthington and Marshall, and Ed Davis Business Machines is located in Willmar. The two companies will continue to operate and provide their other office supply, furniture, and related office products at their current locations. The employees that support their copier business have become part of the Marco team.
Ed Davis Business Machines has been in business in Willmar since 1962. Todd Davis, president of Ed Davis Business Machines, on Friday explained the reason for the sale.
"With the change in that technology, we felt that it was better that we probably pursue a different part of our business and they (Marco) had more expertise in the print managed services and the people to better take care of our customers in the future,'' he said.
"We felt now was the time to do it. So we're focusing more on office supplies and furniture and those types of products,'' he said.
"Our customers will receive the same excellent and reliable service and support from Marco Inc.," said Davis. "We would like to thank all of our customers for their past copier business and look forward to continuing to provide them with office supplies, furniture and related product areas."
Davis said the company had to let go three service technicians and one salesman associated with the copier business in the Willmar office as part of the sale. Davis said they had an opportunity to join the Marco team.
In September, Marco will open a new location in Worthington. Marco has been an authorized Sharp service and sales dealer since 1975.
"This ... acquisition continues our expansion in southern Minnesota and creates a local presence to bring our voice, data and video expertise to this market," said Jeff Gau, Marco CEO.
Over the past year, Marco has expanded into new markets including Rochester and Thief River Falls, and Decorah, Iowa, and Sioux Falls, S.D. Marco has 350 employees at its 13 locations throughout the Upper Midwest.

We are extremely excited to partner with Wal-Mart, Kroger, Dillons, King Soopers, City Markets, Stop & Shop, Giant, and Martin's in debuting the pouch-packed varieties to an even wider audience.
City of Industry (PRWEB) August 22, 2012
Crown Prince Seafood proudly announces a New & Improved line of pouch-packed sardines. They are currently carried in Wal-Mart nationwide and regionally in Kroger - Dallas, Dillons - Kansas City, King Soopers – Denver, City Markets – Colorado, Stop & Shop – New England and New York Metro, Giant – Mid Atlantic Region, and Martin's – Mid Atlantic Region.
Packed in eco-friendly, easy-to-open pouches, the sardines will be available in four different varieties, all of which have been popular in Crown Prince Seafood's line of quality canned seafood:
- Lightly Smoked – in Soy Bean Oil
- No Salt Added – in Spring Water
- Spicy – in Louisiana Hot Sauce
- Traditional – in Mustard
"Wild caught sardines have been staples of the Crown Prince product lines for years," said Dustan Hoffman, President. "We are extremely excited to partner with Wal-Mart, Kroger, Dillons, King Soopers, City Markets, Stop & Shop, Giant, and Martin's in debuting the pouch-packed varieties to an even wider audience."
Innovative Packaging
Crown Prince continues to be the innovator in the specialty canned seafood category with new and improved pouch-packed sardines.
"The packaging is designed to be light in weight and minimal in material," said Dustan Hoffman, President. "We wanted to create something that was convenient, efficient, and of the highest quality."
Lightweight pouches reduce fuel consumption during transportation, thus decreasing the sardines' carbon footprint between the ocean and your table. And at 3.53 ounces, the easy-to-open pouches are ideal for camping, snacking, or on-the-go.
Crown Prince implemented a more stringent packing process to ensure a more uniform product within the pouches. "Whenever you are doing something new it can require a little tweaking in order to perfect the packaging and product," said Joe Bulf, Crown Prince Account Manager for Wal-Mart. The new and improved pouch sardines contain firmer fish and fewer scales. Consumers should see a minimum of 3 whole fish per pouch. The retorting process has been perfected so the fish are not over-cooked in the pouch. The outer case packaging has helped in reducing the handling of the individual pouches from factory to shelf in order to avoid damaging the product. Look for "NEW Improved" hi-lighted on the outer case for the best quality available on these pouch items.
Health Benefits
Each pouch of Crown Prince sardines offers 0.93 grams of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids per serving. According to Mayo Clinic, twice-weekly servings of fish high in omega-3s can help "decrease triglycerides, lower blood pressure, reduce blood clotting, boost immunity and improve arthritis symptoms, and in children may improve learning ability," as well as reduce the risk of heart disease-related death by a third.
Crown Prince pouched sardines also provide 16g or more of protein per serving, and just 10g or fewer of fat. With these nutritional benefits and in four different varieties, the new product is easy to incorporate into a meal or snack straight from the pouch.
About Crown Prince Seafood
Since 1948 Crown Prince has provided the finest quality canned seafood. In 1993, we expanded our business to Mexico. We have since added Crown Prince Natural and Ocean Prince to our brands. As an American family-owned business, three generations of the Hoffman family have dedicated themselves to meeting the needs of the consumer. Today, Crown Prince brands are well known throughout the United States and Mexico.

Home | Airshows | The Hangar | Nostalgia | Links
Gary Parsons was at Duxford for the D-Day commemorations. All pictures by the author or as credited.
Duxford's D-Day airshow had plenty to offer - sun, historic aircraft, modern jets, plus the usual myriad of display stalls, all of which conspired to attract perhaps the museum's largest one-day crowd yet seen in its thirty-year history.
The Longest Queue
Thankfully it's been a long while, but the D-Day airshow also saw the return of an old problem - long queues on the M11 motorway, and many frustrated motorists that failed to get in. A revised traffic plan has been implemented ready for the building work scheduled to commence around the Superhangar for the AirSpace project - parking in the vicinity of the Superhangar will be restricted in time, so will now be used for disabled and DX tickets only. This has resulted in all the M11 and A505 east traffic being shepherded into the north and west car parks, crossing oncoming traffic and drastically slowing progress off the M11 as a result. The last time such chaos was endured was the Spitfire 60th anniversary show in 1996, when again the anticipated crowd was much larger than expected. IWM's Marketing Manager, Tracey Woods explains: "Obviously, there was a problem with the sheer volume of traffic for the air show and we fully appreciate how frustrating this must have been for people trying to get to the show. The IWM and Cambridge Constabulary jointly plan the parking and traffic management systems and these are regularly reviewed. The problems encountered on Sunday were exacerbated by the attendance of more visitors to the show than had originally been anticipated - we had over 25,000 through the gates, which had to close at about 12:30. The Museum wishes to assure visitors that these issues will be addressed in time for the Flying Legends Air Show on Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 July."
that did make it through the gates enjoyed a varied flying display, plus
many period sights and sounds throughout the day. It was the culmination
of a week's activities and events at the Cambridgeshire museum, with many
veterans of both Operation Overlord and the Battle of Britain present
for autograph and picture signings. Before the flying display commenced,
a Service of Commemoration was held including a two-minute silence, something
that the vast crowd respected to a man - you could hear the birds singing
as 25,000 people paid a few moments of respect to the thousands that died
on 6 June, 1944. George Ellis, President of the Royston and District Branch
of the Royal British Legion, led the Act of Remembrance: "They shall
grow not old as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them nor
the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we
will remember them." A Bugler sounded 'The Last Post' to signal the
start of the two-minute silence, after which Mr Ellis concluded the service:
"When you go home, tell them of us and say - for your tomorrow, we
gave our today."
Duxford's D-Day, 1944 (with thanks to the IWM)
In June 1944, Duxford was home to the US Eighth Air Force's 78th Fighter Group comprising the 82nd, 83rd and 84th Fighter Squadrons. The Group, resident at Duxford officially from May 1943, was equipped with the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, the largest and heaviest single-seat piston fighter ever produced. The P-47 was produced in greater numbers than any other American fighter and was one of the outstanding US fighters of the Second World War.
As D-Day approached, there was real concern that the Germans might have attempted a pre-emptive or spoiling attack to disrupt the Allied invasion. Duxford's P-47s began night flying training and, like other groups, the 78th formed a defence flight of four aircraft to protect its home base. The aim was to be airborne within fifteen minutes of an alert but Duxford's fighters, reminiscent of their Battle of Britain predecessors, managed to get their scramble time down to just four minutes. The alert flight was on duty an hour before sunset until an hour after sunrise. To avoid any misunderstandings that could lead to what are now called 'friendly fire' incidents, a P-51 Mustang was dispatched to Duxford so the defenders could easily identify the North American fighter. Ground defences were also tightened considerably and a commando platoon was formed with every man given firing practice.
In the run up to D-Day the Allies pounded German defences around the clock. On the morning of 24 May 1944, less than a fortnight before D-Day, Duxford's P-47s escorted Eighth Air Force bombers over enemy territory and then in the afternoon became bombers themselves. Led by a two seat P-38 Lightning carrying a bomb -aimer the P-47s dropped 500 lb bombs on the railway bridge at Creil in France.
Pre-invasion tension mounted considerably in the first days of June, emphasised by the high degree of security and alertness. Machine guns, gas masks and steel helmets were carried everywhere. Duxford, known as the Country Club of the ETO (European Theatre of Operations), became very businesslike. On 5 June the 78th, together with the P-51s of the 339th from nearby Fowlmere, carried out bomber support and ground attack missions in the Cherbourg and Pas de Calais area. At 1545 hrs the operational order for Operation 'Neptune' was received - Duxford and Fowlmere were sealed off from the outside world and Newmarket Road, now the A505 which separates Duxford's airfield from the domestic site and Officers' Mess to the north, was closed to public traffic. Duxford was only linked to the outside world by closely watched teletypes. No telephone calls went or came into the base. Incoming and outgoing mail was frozen. British civilians and American Red Cross workers on or near the airfield were kept where they were - those on the base at the time were not allowed to leave and those outside were not permitted to enter. Only those military personnel with specific permission were allowed near the aircraft. After the invasion had begun, only pilots scheduled to fly at the time were allowed inside the briefing room before or after a briefing. Blackout restrictions were tighter than ever and special wardens patrolled the station to see that they were strictly adhered to.
Personnel who normally never went near aircraft were given paint brushes to help paint the 78th's fighters with the distinctive black and white 'invasion' stripes around wings and fuselages. Others were pressed into service driving trucks or preparing ammunition belts. Every one of Duxford's eighty-nine 'Thunderbolts' were on line and ready for action. By this period Duxford's operations room function was carried out at Sawston Hall, some two miles to the east of the airfield. As 6 June dawned, the staff knew something big was on as they watched the plotting table filling up. The sky overhead was filled with a continual throbbing drone of aircraft which lasted too long to be a typical RAF bomber stream.
At 0329 hrs, Duxford's 83rd and 84th FS took off for their first mission of the day, giving cover to the invasion fleet as it crossed the English Channel towards the landing beaches. When the first of Duxford's five missions of the day returned to refuel and rearm, the Thunderbolts of the 82nd roared off to take their place. At 1000 hrs, the 83rd Fighter Squadron took off for their second mission of the day, only six hours after they had left on their first. For this mission they were tasked with dropping bombs on rail targets ahead of the landing forces and reported German vehicle convoys moving forward. Before the 83rd landed the 84th were back in the air looking for targets of opportunity in the Alencon area, striking at marshalling yards and ammunition dumps. On landing they claimed two locomotives damaged, 30-45 box cars damaged, eight to ten coal cars damaged, ten flat cars loaded with motor vehicles damaged, one troop truck left burning and three more damaged.
Meanwhile the 82nd was attacking rail traffic and found two Luftwaffe airfields empty of aircraft. On its third mission of the day the 83rd became the only squadron of the 78th to encounter the Luftwaffe, bouncing eight Focke-Wulf 190s near Mayenne and shooting two down without loss. At 1822 hrs the 82nd and 84th were airborne again for the group's final mission of the day. The fighters did not return until after dusk, four and a half hours later. All pilots reported heavy artillery bombardment.
The Operation ended at 2300 hrs Considering the intensity of the day's actions for the 78th FG, losses from enemy action were incredibly low - one Duxford pilot had to be rescued from the English Channel. The records noted that despite the momentous events of the day the pilots needed sleep and were probably 'too damned tired to celebrate' - they would have to fly again in the morning...
Duxford's Own D-Day Veteran- Spitfire ML407 (with thanks to the IWM)
One of the aircraft taking part in the flying display played its own part in the D-Day action sixty years ago to the day. Spitfire ML407 was originally built at Castle Bromwich in early 1944 as a single seat Mark IX fighter, and served in the front line of battle throughout the last twelve months of the Second World War with six different Squadrons of the RAF's 2nd Tactical Air Force, flying 176 operational combat sorties. It was delivered to 485 'New Zealand' Squadron on 29 April 1944 by Jackie Moggridge, one of the top lady pilots of the ATA, where it became the 'mount' of Flying Officer Johnnie Houlton, a 21-year-old from Christchurch.
Houlton's ground crew, flight mechanic Ron White (fitter) Vic Strange (rigger) and Michael Fahy (electrician) took charge of '407' and applied the Squadron identity code 'OU' and individual aircraft letter 'V'. ML407's first operational duties began the following day on 1 May, 1944, escorting bombers to targets in France. A week later ML 407 was again flying escort duties until 20 May when, with a 500-pound bomb slung beneath the fuselage and Johnnie Houlton at the controls, a V-1 flying bomb site in France was dive-bombed.
On 6 June 1944 ML 407 flew into the history books - with the invasion under way, ML 407, flown by Johnnie Houlton, was leading Blue Section on a beach patrol south of Omaha beach when he spotted a Junkers Ju88 bomber.
"I glimpsed a Ju88 above cloud, diving away fast to the south. Climbing at full throttle I saw the enemy aircraft enter a large isolated cloud above the mail layer and when it reappeared on the other side I was closing in rapidly. Our aircraft were equipped with the gyro gunsight which eliminated the snap calculations or guesswork required to hit a target aircraft - especially one in a reasonably straight flight path and it also enabled the guns to be used accurately at a far greater range than before. I positioned the aiming dot on the right hand engine of the enemy aircraft and fired a three second burst - the engine disintegrated, fire broke out, two crewmembers baled out and the aircraft dived steeply to crash on a roadway, blowing apart on impact. Supreme Headquarters nominated the Ju88 as the first enemy aircraft to be shot down since the invasion began putting 485 (NZ) Spitfire Squadron at the top of the scoreboard for D-Day."
A second Ju88 was intercepted almost immediately and destroyed in what Houlton says was a carbon-copy of the first victory, the whole section sharing the second victory collectively.
ML407 eventually racked up 137 operational sorties with 485 Squadron (in the hands of a total of sixteen New Zealand pilots) including 69 fighter sweeps and over 30 patrols over the Normandy beachhead following D-Day. ML407 is credited with two Ju88 kills, two Bf109 kills and another damaged. In addition to this, ML407 went on to serve operationally with 341 (Alsace) Squadron (Free French Air Force), coded NL-D. Today the Spitfire is owned, operated and flown by Carolyn Grace, who keeps the historic aircraft at Duxford.
Carolyn flew ML407 as part of a three-ship display to commemorate the Spitfire's involvement in the allied landings. Together with Rod Dean in SM845 and John Romain in TD248, the three fighters made for a breathtaking tailchase followed by individual routines. With TFC's EP120 also displaying later in the day, Supermarine's finest was central to the action, just as it was sixty years ago.
Missing from the line-up was the P-51D Mustang - one was scheduled to appear, but events dictated otherwise. The other notable absentee was a C-47 or DC-3, not listed as appearing which was surprising given the type's crucial part in the airborne assault. Its absence made one realise that the flying display was quite disparate, given it was to commemorate a particular occasion, but it didn't detract from the spectacle of what was a good line-up by recent Duxford standards. Duxford's runway problems didn't really impact on the day - most of the fast jets were based at nearby Cambridge airport, but the Magister pilot gained approval to land and taxi past the appreciative crowd. Quite amusing was the commentator's description of the Harrier, which is "designed to operate from the roughest, unprepared airstrips" - except Duxford's grass, of course!
the closing of the show by the Red Devils and the sound of bagpipes by
a lonely piper, it left one in reflective mood of the sacrifices made
that June morning in 1944. Duxford delivered with its D-Day atmosphere,
although it certainly was the Longest Day for those stuck on the M11...

Sex And The City star Kim Cattrall was turned down for a role in award-winning play Educating Rita because she was too old.
The 51-year-old was so desperate to land a part in the famous stage production - set in her native Liverpool, England - she personally contacted playwright Willy Russell to talk him into hiring her.
Cattrall was turned down over her age, with Russell insisting he would prefer a young actress in the title role.
But Cattrall is not bitter about the snub.
She says, "I contacted Willy Russell a few years ago because I wanted to do a version (of Educating Rita). The idea was to make it about a working-class woman in her 40s, a woman's realisation of herself and the different possibilities for her.
"But he said it had been written for an actress in her 20s, which I respected."

I love Bucky O'Hare so this custom is freaking awesome
I wanted to go away from my usual style and try something else. So I went for a cartoon style. It was quite nerve racking adding the black lines after doing all the layers of paint he needed. There are a few lines that went wrong but overall i'm pretty pleased with him. Here's the recipe.
Base = DCUC Negative man, torso, arms and legs re-sculpted for that spacesuit look.
Head = Vintage Bucky O'Hare, ears shaved down and foam for the ear cuffs. It just sits over the head of a DCUC Dr.Midnite.
Collar = sculpted, stars are the mives old earrings.
Stars on epalletes = cut out from a fancy watch strap.
Epalettes and cloak = vintage Bucky, sculpt to blend.
Upper gloves = Vintage Bucky, sculpt to blend.
lower gloves = Sculpted.
Hands = ML Beta ray Bill.
Belt = Sculpted some random tube for the raised bits.
Lower legs = DCUC Firestorm, sculpted boots.
Feet = DCUC Firestorm, sculpted over with foam for the treads.
Gun = Unsure, maybe transformers.
Painted with the usual Games workshop paints, diluted and multiple coats. Sealed with superglue and Satin sealer.
Had a blast trying this new style and I do have plans to do a few more at some point. Thanks for looking and hope you like

I got injected 2 times in between my eyebrows. The first time (in December), the product did not work, so I went back for a second time in January for a touch up and it still did not work. However, now I am stuck with large lump and comes and goes. This has been over 3 months ago now. I am worried. I am not sure if she used Dysport or some other product, but I am certain that it is not Botox (which I have already used and had successful results). Will this lump eventually go away? What is it?
It Has Been 3 Months Since I Did Dysport on my Forehead, is It Normal to Still Have a Big Lump? (photo)
Doctor Answers 8
Lump after botox
I agree with the others and do not think that this is due to the Botox or Dysport. I would go to your doctor and have this evaluated
Lump after neurotoxin injection
Hello 'Tcode1987', thanks for your question. Swelling after Botox/ Dysport injection should only last about an hour. Having this lump for 3 months now is very unusual. Without knowing more information or doing a physical exam, I cannot say what it could be. Did you go back to see your doctor and see what they say? Possibilities include a hematoma at the time of injection which is still breaking down, or perhaps a lipoma that you had all along and are now noticing it. It is also possible they injected with something other than Dysport, such as one of the fillers which will take a year to go away, although I am not sure why anyone would do that. Hopefully you went to a board-certified plastic surgeon for your rejuvenation procedure. These days, I am constantly amazed at the number of unqualified, shady practitioners who inject product without any formal training or knowledge of what they are doing. Good luck!
Lump following Dysport injections
In general, the side effects of Dysport injections may include:
1) Minor swelling
2) Light bruising
3) Redness
Looking at your photo, it does not appear your lump is a result of a Dysport injection. Even if you had an allergic reaction to the treatment, symptoms (which would likely be associated with the injection site only) would show up right after the injections and would have disappeared by 3 months. Is is hard to say when the lump will go away without knowing the exact cause, and an exam would be necessary to identify the issue. I would recommend following up with your provider immediately and communicating your concern to her. I hope this helps, and good luck to you.

Lump following Dysport treatment
It is difficult to give you precise advice without performing an exam and knowing more about your procedure. I would recommend visiting your provider as soon as possible and having the area looked at. Botox or Dysport should not generally cause the issue you are experiencing. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.

Botox and bump
It's difficult to say what's going on with your bump(s). If you haven't, I would definitely suggest returning to your provider and having this evaluated.
Lump on forehead months after Botox injection
This is a very unusual problem and probably represents a hematoma that formed during the injection which has not resolved and perhaps developed into a retention cyst. See your provider for further evaluation. He/she may use ultrasound to evaluate it and try to needle it to see if it can be aspirated.

It Has Been 3 Months Since I Did Dysport on my Forehead, is It Normal to Still Have a Big Lump? (photo)
Appears as a retention cyst whether from the injections or not I can not tell over the internet. Surgical removal best but steroid injections might help. Seek in person evaluations from a surgeon.
Large lump after Dysport
I agree with Dr. Goshtasby. Dysport should in no way cause a lump like this, for this long. I think you should be evaluated by a physician, in person. This is not normal, and it concerns me that the lump comes and goes.

Iroquoian was one of the two big language groups in the East (along with the Algonquian language). The Iroquois first came into contact with Europeans when Jacques Cartier sailed down the St. Lawrence to the villages of Stadacona (present-day Quebec City) and Hochelaga (present-day Montreal) in the 1500s. These St. Lawrence Iroquois had disappeared by the time French exploration resumed again in the 17th century with Champlain. The Huron and Petun of southern Ontario were also Iroquois groups (described in another section). The only Iroquois to survive to the present day are those of the Five Nations. They lived in what is now New York State and southern Quebec and Ontario. The original five tribes - Seneca, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida and Mohawk - were joined in the 18th century by the Tuscarora to form the Six Nations.
The Iroquois were more agricultural and therefore less nomadic: people who move from place to place in search of food or fresh grazing lands.nomadic than the Algonquins. They grew corn, beans, squash and pumpkins. They also hunted, fished and gathered wild berries.
The Six Nations lived in villages of longhouses. Each longhouse contained several families related to each other through the female line. The villages were protected by defendable barricades and surrounded by their cultivated fields.
The Iroquois nations had a council of 50 chiefs, or sachems, headed by a chief of the Onondaga tribe, since the Onondaga were located geographically in the middle of the six tribes. At the death of a chief, the highest woman in his clan would choose the next chief. Decisions had to be by consensus, or total agreement. If the chiefs could not come to a unanimous agreement about something, then each chief was free to make his own decision and was not bound by the decisions of the others.
The Six Nations Iroquois held a Feast of the Dead to send their relatives to the other world, but they did not share the Huron practice of burying all the bones in a central grave mound. The preparation and ceremony that went into these feasts served to bond the smaller clans and families together.
The Europeans brought the idea of a money exchange which the Iroquois adapted as wampum. Wampum was made from shells woven into a belt that would be given as a gift at important events. The Iroquois allied themselves with the British against the French and against the American War of Independence. After American independence, a number of Iroquois were among the Loyalists who came to Canada. Perhaps the most famous was the Mohawk chief, Joseph Brant. The city of Brantford in southern Ontario is named after him. Another Mohawk Loyalist was Smoke Johnson, grandfather of the famous poet/entertainer E. Pauline Johnson/Tekahionwake (1861-1913). Smoke Johnson reportedly killed seven Virginians during the Battle of Queenston Heights in the War of 1812.

Awesome. I like the idea of having the air tank for bursts of boost, imagine if they chilled that tank after it was compressed to say a super low temp and then blasted it in there for 10 seconds at a set psi.... Awesome

So they are basically using the KERS idea to pressurize an air tank then use it for FI - totally sick. That guy Urban who came up with the free valve idea is going to change the way internal combustion motors are made. So amazing.

Coolest car company ever
The guys at Koenigsegg are creative thinkers, the way they just blasted on to the scene with this no limit approach is just fascinating. Just hearing what they had planned for Saab if the deal had went trough was special. Christian is definetly a pioneer who will be remembered in history. They DO at Koenigsegg, where others just talk about it elsewhere. The could have been very wealthy if he just went viral with low cost production and 1/8 price range. But that would ruin his vision of perfection. That is huge respect! He keeps his dream sustainable in a high cost country with correct volum and high exclusivity. This kind of thinking reflects the best in the buisness. It's the same for tuningcompanies, the best are those who operate witin their comfort zone. Start compromising on quality and the peak products gets lowered and your buisness it "just another".

I think its exciting to hear about new tech in engine production.
I think its insane that with all these years in automotive history, we are still using the same basic combustion engine created by Karl Benz.
I know the technology exists to have changed/improved engine making to where we don't have to take it up the butt from OPEC. This new technology will seriously improve fuel efficiency.
Now if the lobbyist from the big companies will stay out of the way, we can get somewhere.
It also bothers me that Moller, who created the Skycar is no closer to mass production than he was years ago after making the first car than can also be used in flight.
Neither political party has embraced the concept or looked into creating an infrastructure to make something like the Skycar a reality.
Automotive technology has ground to a snails pace. I blame much of if it on car manufacturers who want things to stay the way they are. Horsepower wars seem to be the only real change. There been improvement in fuel efficiency but not nearly what is possible.
Seems like we're afraid to piss off opec and GM.
Congrats to Koenigsegg for going further.

The research also found that younger gamers are also influenced to play particular games by peer pressure and word of mouth.
Other findings included that children have begun to play games at an increasingly early age and that the overall age of games players is getting older. In addition, the BBFC discovered that females prefer strategic life simulation games like The Sims, whilst males favour FPS titles and sports games.
Director of the BBFC David Cooke said: "We take this part of our responsibilities under the Video Recordings Act very seriously. Players and the parents of young players can be sure that all aspects of the game have been taken into account before reaching a classification.
"This research provides some valuable insights into why people play video games and what effect they think playing has on themselves and friends. It has also highlighted parental attitudes to video games.
"We hope that it will provide some food for thought for the industry, and everyone who has an interest in the impact of games and we will be taking the research outcomes into account as we review our games classification policies over the coming months."

Guest blogger Elizabeth Lindsay, aka nameberry's very own Olivekit, was wracked with indecision over what to name her third baby girl — a dilemma followed closely by all her friends on nameberry's message boards. The final name choice surprised everyone, even Olivekit herself.
Baby Ooh La La (what my two-and-a-half-year-old calls her little sister), entered the world on July 23rd, after a quick and almost painless delivery (love the epidural). My beautiful baby girl debuted with an ear piercing scream that made the doctor laugh and say that Baby Ooh La La was the loudest baby that she had ever delivered. She gets that from my husband.
After cleaning her up and weighing her, they handed her back to me. We looked her over and studied her features, she looked a lot like her big sisters Olive and Kit, but with more hair. She was perfect.
We oohed and awed over her, took a lot of pictures, and then one of the delivery nurses asked, "What's her name?"
Crap. What followed were endless conversations about what she would not be named.
Me: How about Phoebe, nickname Bea?
Me: Why not?
Hubby: It sounds like a mean girl's name.
Me: What?!
(After pushing, I found out that he asked out a Phoebe once on a date in Junior High and she said no. Emphatically. Phoebe was out.)
We tried (trust me) to come up with a name. I read every book, made lists, got opinions from the wonderful ladies of Nameberry, and my loving but opinionated husband found fault with every name I came up with. Plus, having two daughters named Olive and Kit, the pressure was on to find a name that went perfectly with theirs. Not an easy task.
I envy people who can just pick a name for their baby and that's that. When I was pregnant with Olive, we had a couple over for dinner and the topic of baby names came up. Even though they weren't expecting yet, after ruling out a couple of names, they agreed on William for a boy. A five minute conversation and sure enough, years later, they welcomed baby William Archer. It was never that easy for us.
Olive was going to be Courtney or Kendall until I had a dream that I was calling her by a different name and she looked at me and said, "My name is Olive, Mommy." I woke up and told my husband, who loved the name. I didn't. I wasn't going to name my daughter Olive. The only Olive I had ever heard of was Olive Oyl and I don't even like olives. But my husband started calling her Olive toward the end of my pregnancy and when she born, Courtney Olive she became.
At my ultrasound for my second pregnancy, the baby had her back turned to us so the gender was going to be a delivery surprise. Since I didn't want to call him or her "it" for the next five months, we nicknamed the baby Kit because that worked for a girl or a boy. I was positive that I was having a boy. The pregnancy was so much different than with Ollie's and sadly, I didn't dream up for a name for this baby, but we had a few names picked out for him.
"It's a girl!", the doctor proudly announced. My husband looked at me confused for a second, before we laughed and welcomed our second baby girl into our lives. But what on Earth were we going to name her?
The nurses tried to be helpful (not really) with suggestions like Apple, Strawberry, Peach or Peaches if we wanted to continue the fruit theme, or Oyl, Sweet Pea, Wimbley, or Popeye, and Martini, because everybody likes an Olive with their Martini. Thankfully, when Olive came in to meet her baby sister for the first time, she reminded us that the baby already had a name. My husband sat Olive on the bed and I told her to say hi to her baby sister. "Hi, Kit" she said, leaning down and giving the baby a kiss. And Kit Aurora she became.
At the hospital with this third baby, I went over my list. Mae, Thea, Mabel, Sunday, Phoebe, Georgia, and Lulu, but my husband wouldn't agree and the ones he did like didn't feel right. We went back to the drawing board and ended up taking home an unnamed baby we called Lala, a nickname from Kit's Baby Ooh La La until we could come up with a perfect name.
I was becoming desperate. My husband and I couldn't agree. No name fit the sweet, loud little girl I was holding with the curled up lip. My brother-in-law suggested Elvis or Presley. I even asked my daughters what they thought her name should be, and Olive said Jimmy and Kit said Baby Ooh La La or Frog. Ask a five-year-old and a two-and-a-half-year-old for advice and that's what you get.
My sister told me I should pick an "N" name for my baby because our initials were K, L, M, and O and an 'N' would complete us. I thought it was worth a try and flip through the baby name book. Nico, Nicole, Neve, no, no, and no. Nola? I asked my husband, who immediately liked it. Plus, I liked that the nickname Lala would work with Nola. What convinced me is when I did a Google search for Nola and New Orleans, Louisiana (NOLA) popped up. Perfect, because that is where I got pregnant with the baby when we went there for a wedding. A name and a story. And that is how Miss Nola Belle got her name. A name that wasn't on any of our lists or even on our scope before she was born.
Side note: About a month after we named her, my husband said she doesn't really look like a Nola. He's lucky he's still alive. So my lovely Nola is now called Belle, which suits her. I looked Nola up on Nameberry after we named her (silly us) and saw that Nola means 'small bell' so essentially we named her Bell Belle. As for now, Belle is called Lala, Bell Belle, Bibi and Bea, which was on my original list as a nickname for Phoebe. Perfect.

I am sure you must be aware that the world if Warcraft is one of the most talked about games on the internet these days. This game is based in the warcraft universe and once you start wit this game, you will not be able to stop playing it because it is highly addictive in nature. Are you new to this game? If you are then the best advice that I can give you is to look for as much information as you can before you start playing it. This way, you will have information about how you can play this game. Trust me; the game is not so difficult at all once you know the basics of World of Warcraft.
When you are starting out with this game, you need to select the realm first and this will be used by a team of people who will be playing together to finish the game. Once you have done this, you will then have to create a character. You need to know that in this game, there are two sides that you can play for and they are the Alliance and the Horde. So when you play the World of Warcraft, you will have to belong to any one of these two factions. After this is done, you will then have to select a race and class. You will find that when it comes to the classes of World of Warcraft, your choice is endless for you can choose from shaman, priest, hunter, warrior, etc. After you have decided on the class and the race of the character, you can then proceed to customize the character.
The place where you start the game is dependent on the race that you have selected. If you are confused as to how you can start with the game or what you should do when you are in the middle of the game, you can always refer to the tips box located at the bottom the screen. The tips box will offer you suggestions and tips on a continuous basis. It is true that you can consider playing the trial version of this game but trust me when I say that the trial version is not as good as the paid version. On the other hand, if you are starting out then I will advise you to use the free trial version first to see how it works on your pc as the World of Warcraft is not compatible with all the computers.

Mercury Comet 1963 replica model
Newby here, so please go easy.
I'm looking for a replica to scale model of a Mercury Comet from 1963 to give as a present. Looking for the soft top and in black, if we're getting specific.
I've searched the web far and wide and can't find this specific model. There are some AMT assembly models of hard top '67 Comets.
And some soft top Mercury's from '59, but they are not Comets.
Does anyone know if there is a model of a '63 Comet out there, pref black and soft top?
Thanks for any help.
Not wishing to stear you away from Classic and Sportscar Hugo, but if you try Classic American's site, I subscribe to both magazines incidentally, a guy called Richard Colney is an occassional contributor now.
He used to be in a priveledged position to be sent trial batches of scaled replica model cars, to report on, to American clubs various, and flog them.

The taint on Major League Baseball has been in the news a lot in recent years. With admissions of past steroid use still getting attention, a group of former players wants to remind people — especially young fans — about the positive side of the sport.
That was one of the goals of the MLB Players Alumni Association, the Brooksville Parks and Recreation Department and the Hernando County Mining Association at a clinic Saturday at Tom Varn Park in Brooksville. Mike Walker, the director of parks and recreation for the city, has worked with the Players Alumni Association for the past four years to put on a free clinic for kids featuring former major league players.
"Baseball has had some stumbling blocks recently," said Walker, a former pitcher for the Cleveland Indians, Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers. "This camp is a bright spot for the game."
The mining association has been the primary sponsor of the event all four years, and Walker is quick to point out that without the group's financial support, none of the 175 kids at this year's event would have been able to take part.
"We average anywhere between 175 to 200 kids for any of our camps," MLB Players Alumni Association representative Chris Torgusen said. "We hold these clinics all over the country."
Kids at Saturday's clinic, some of whom came from as far as Orlando, got tips from eight former major leaguers, the highest number of former players on hand in the clinc's four-year history.
Riley McKinley, 9, and his mother, Nancy McElmurry, came from Tampa after hearing about the clinic in an e-mail from mlb.com. McElmurry didn't tell her son, who plays ball in the Keystone Little League in Tampa, that there were going to be professional baseball players at the clinic.
"This is our first camp, and I didn't really know what to expect," she said. "We would definitely do it again. He is having a lot of fun."
Riley was especially successful at former American League All-Star Ron LeFlore's hitting station. But, like every youth, he also got a chance to work with St. Louis Cardinals pitching legend Bob Forsch, former journeyman starting pitcher Dave LaPoint and former American All-Star Richie Scheinblum.
Forsch ran the pitching station along with former journeyman reliever John Frascatore, who also coached baseball at Nature Coast Technical High School last year. Forsch has lived in Hernando County for four years and has taken part in the local clinic for the past three. He has two no-hitters and a 20-win season on his career resume.
"We all started young, and that's the amazing thing," Forsch said. "There's a certain way you have to handle different ages of kids. The bigger kids get bored if you show them the small stuff."
It was a very young player that Forsch reached Saturday. It happened to be the youngest in the crowd.
Matthew DiRosa, 3, made the trip down from Lecanto with his parents, Brenda and Bob DiRosa, and his brothers: Brandon, 8, and Christopher, 9.
While the clinic was advertised for players between the ages of 7 and 14, they couldn't say no to Matthew, who came prepared with his cap and glove. Matthew didn't say much but obviously had picked up some skills from tagging along with his brothers in the Citrus County Little League.
"(Matthew) doesn't talk a whole lot," Brenda DiRosa said, "but he loves to play. He can already hit in the (batting cages)."
By all accounts, the clinic was a success, like the three others before it. And neither Walker nor the Players Alumni Association have any plans to end the local relationship.
"I'm always going to want to give back to the game," Walker said, "and there will always be something special about being a small community, having youngsters face to face with major-leaguers."

The Relative Strangeness of Brian De Palma on Mission: Impossible
This is a guest post by Navarre Megali, a filmmaking student at UNCSA and North Carolina transplant by way of California, where he enjoys a saturation of craft beer and the use of the word "barbecue" as a noun.
While it isn't uncommon these days to have "auteur" filmmakers behind big Hollywood franchises, it was practically unheard of in the 90's, and therefore quite a strange circumstance to find Brian De Palma helming a big splashy action/adventure vehicle for Tom Cruise in 1996. Both Cruise and De Palma at this point were known names in the industry, but their pairing–both then and now–seems to be something of an anomaly. Indeed, the crafting of the first Mission: Impossible and its subsequent success seems to be a sort of happy coalescence of talent and timing.

They have improved - by 1 pt. 4point loss last game and 5 point win last night. Hollow victory really. To have 5 goals kicked against you in the last quarter would mean you are going to lose many close ones and not so close ones..enjoy the week Tiges fans as the rest of the year will be a tough test. Go Blues 2013. Great effort but please play 4 qtrs and no turbo boosted last qtrs.

If we lost by four points and then won by five points - that's a 9 point improvement...
It's round 1, nobody is match fit yet. If Carlton is going to rely on cramped and tired opposition in the final quarter to gain control of a match, it will be a long time between wins. Hollow victory? Maybe. I'd say a hard fought one but a victory nevertheless. Odds are Carlton will be sitting 0-3 and Richmond will be 3-0 come the end of round 3.

-4pts to +5pts is an improvement differential of 9pts by my reckoning. But I'm not surprised you've been unable to grasp this simple mathematical concept. Carlton have long been inept when it comes to numbers. I guess in this case the only number that matters is the number four as in 4 premiership points- which Richmond got last night and Carlton didn't.

What a poor loser you are. But it's just a case of you having to get used to it. We went flat out for three quarters and tired in the last and therefore let your lazy excuse for players back into the game. We will learn from this and slow the game down and hold on to the ball when we tire. I can see a very enjoyable season in 2013 for the Mighty Tigers. I can see why your team cheated now, you guys just don't know how to add up. Your screen name is very funny when we have at least 10,000 more members than you. Mmmmm, where have all the Blues supporters gone? What fair weather supporters you have.

Richmond have had their best pre-season for over a decade, you almost threw the game away against a side that still has "L" plates on with a new coach.
Somebody spell out who Richmond are going to replace in the top 8 in 2013 so we can all have a laugh.

Dustin Martin played his most influential footy for Richmond in the last minutes of the game. Twice he muscled the ball from the pack to kick it forward...only 20 meters but both times it stopped the forward momentum that Carlton was enjoying and resulted in a Shane Edwards behind.. If this continues Richmond WILL be plying finals this year.

Update 12:06 p.m.:Sam Singer, spokesman for Recology, issued the following statement after one of the company's garbage trucks killed a cyclist:
"SFPD responded and took control of the accident scene. They are conducting a thorough investigation and interviewing witnesses. Recology staff responded immediately and we are cooperating fully with police investigators.Our sincere thoughts and prayers go out to family members of the cyclist who died in this morning's accident."
A witness told reporters that the truck hit the male cyclist as the driver was turning onto Van Ness. The driver continued, dragging the cyclist for a short distance until witnesses alerted him.
Original Story 7:39 a.m.: An unidentified cyclist was killed early this morning when he/she collided with a garbage truck in the city's Mission District.
Police, who are still at the scene, didn't have too many details now, but said the incident happened at about 6:45 a.m. at the intersection of 16th street and Van Ness.
The cyclist died at the scene, said Officer Gordon Shyy.
The driver remained on scene and has been cooperative with the cops. Police do not believe drugs or alcohol were involved in the accident.
Check back for updates, and be careful out there.

Hi, one week ago, I started taking a 20mg/day dose of roaccutane, yesterday I was supposed to get my period but didn't, today I did a pregnancy test and i found out that I am 1 month pregnant. Will this dose affect the pregnancy or my baby?
One Week After Starting Roaccutane, I Realized I Am Pregnant?
Doctor Answers 1
Accutane and pregnancy
Here is how Accutane works for females of child-bearing potential: 1. do a pregnancy test which shows up negative, 2. the following month do another pregnancy test that shows up negative and get your first prescription. That is the ONLY way Accutane is allowed for females of child-bearing potential. Who prescribed you Accutane without doing this? Accutane and pregnancy do not mix, and Accutane causes serious birth defects and even death for the child. Seek advice from your prescribing physician immediately.

Mr Bell, 52, will step down this summer after a 20-year career at Ladbrokes that has seen the industry transformed by the internet, tax changes and the introduction of fixed-odds betting terminals – as well as a diversification away from horse-racing.
He first broached the subject of his possible departure after the arrival last May of new chairman Peter Erskine, the former boss of telecom group O2.
But Mr Bell's resolve to leave hardened in the autumn, not long after October's £275m rights issue – a cash-call that irked some investors.
Mr Bell had hoped Ladbrokes would not need to raise fresh capital but those aspirations were undone by an unprecedented run of unfavourable football results, with just four draws in the first 66 Premiership matches this season. It left Labrokes' football betting at just breakeven, which in typical style he described as a "nil-nil draw".
Mr Bell, who earned £2.04m last year, including £617,000 basic pay and a £957,000 bonus, will not get a pay-off but will receive the remainder of his one-year contract when he leaves.
Sources close to the company denied that there had been any bust-up between Mr Bell and Mr Erskine, insisting that the pair "got on well".
Mr Bell, a Yorkshireman, joined Ladbrokes as marketing director in 1991, rising through the ranks to head the business in 2000 when he joined the board of the company's then owner – hotels group Hilton. When Ladbrokes split from Hilton in 2006, Mr Bell took over as the boss of the independently-listed business that was then in the FTSE-100. At the time he said: "I can't believe it really. Young humble lad from Doncaster just about to run one of the country's top 100 companies."
