On Wednesday, he continued the club's normal training regime at Starfire and was as optimistic as ever that he would be available on Saturday when Sounders FC hosts the Columbus Crew at CenturyLink Field.
"Today was the best it's felt," said Evans, noting that he traveled to Montreal, but couldn't shake the knock. "It's better to be safe and let the guys who were 100-percent contribute and obviously that paid dividends with a big win on the road."
It will be a busy week for Evans starting on Saturday. First, he will face the only other MLS club he's ever played for in the Crew, then he travels to Phoenix where the U.S. National Team will face Mexico in a friendly at University of Phoenix Stadium. After the Wednesday friendly, he will return to the Northwest as Seattle takes on the Portland Timbers at Providence Park in Portland.
On Saturday at CenturyLink Field, Sounders FC will partner with American Red Cross to collect donations to aid in the disaster relief efforts to help people affected by disasters like the Oso Mudslide. Volunteers from the American Red Cross will be stationed at various gates, along Occidental Avenue and throughout the stadium to collect donations, while the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation and Hanauer Family Foundation will match donations collected on Saturday up to $15,000.
Fans can also donate by texting "REDCROSS" to 90999 to make a $10 donation or by visiting www.redcross.org.
In 2010, Matt Pickens won MLS Cup with the Colorado Rapids. Now, after losing most of the 2013 season to a fractured arm and then losing his starting spot to Clint Irwin, Pickens found himself expendable to the Rapids this offseason. Last week, he was waived, then quickly picked up by the New England Revolution. Now, just five days later, Pickens has been transferred to the Tampa Bay Rowdies in the North American Soccer League for an undisclosed fee.
In 116 matches with the Rapids from 2009-2013, Pickens had a 41-43-31 record with 29 shutouts and a 1.27 goals against average. Tampa Bay opens the 2014 NASL regular season on April 12.
Toronto FC midfielder Jackson and Portland Timbers goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts were each levied suspensions by the MLS Disciplinary Committee after incidences were reviewed from the weekend's matches. Jackson will miss Toronto's match with Real Salt Lake this weekend, while Ricketts will miss a total of two matches for his red-card tackle of Deshorn Brown in a 2-0 loss to the Colorado Rapids. That will make Ricketts unavailable when the Timbers host Sounders FC on April 5 at Providence Park, likely meaning that former Sounder Andrew Weber will get the start for the Timbers.

In the decade since Aerosmith last released an album of new material, the band survived a near-breakup after 40 years as classic rock's preening and persevering hitmakers, while Steven Tyler became an "American Idol" judge and did Burger King commercials. Said a collective nation: "Sure, why not."
Now comes "Music from Another Dimension!" — the first Aerosmith output since 2001's "Just Push Play," which was forgettable even by the band's own standard of wringing a handful of singles from each album. "Music" likely won't fare better on the radio — and even if it does, that's not necessarily a compliment. But Aerosmith can be mostly proud of this trip down many memory lanes.
There's a head-bopping rudeness to the dirty riff that kicks off the opener, "LUV XXX," and "Street Jesus" starts with a strutting Joe Perry lick that harkens back to the band's creative heyday.
That much is explainable: Back for this pseudo-comeback is producer Jack Douglas, who was behind 1970s monsters like "Toys in the Attic" that propelled the band to superstardom.
It's too bad Aerosmith didn't stick to rehashing that era. Because borrowing from its overwrought pop ballads of recent years does "Music" no favors, particularly Tyler's bland country duet with Carrie Underwood on "Can't Stop Loving You."
The dour "Another Long Goodbye," co-written by Desmond Child, shows that Tyler still has chops when he reaches for haunting instead of sappy at the piano. The beginning plinks are straight from "Dream On," but it's worth sticking with to the end.
The new album is really just tunes from different Aerosmith eras. The trick is navigating the album to the right ones.

John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band
Formed in 1972 in Narragansett, Rhode Island, USA, John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band hit its commercial peak in 1984 with the number 7 single 'On The Dark Side', a key track in the film Eddie And The Cruisers. The soundtrack album, also recorded by the group, was a Top 10 hit in 1983. The band comprised Cafferty (guitar/vocals), Pat Lupo (bass), Gary Gramolini (guitar), Robert Cotoia (keyboards), Michael Antunes (saxophone) and Kenny Jo Silva (drums). Initially called Beaver Brown, they worked at clubs along the eastern US circuit for a decade, building a large following among college-age fans. Their first single, 'Tender Years'/'Wild Summer Nights', was a local radio favourite and sold 10, 000 copies as an independent release in 1980. The offer to write and record the music for Eddie And The Cruisers came the following year, and although the film was a box-office failure, the soundtrack sold 175, 000 copies. The band was then offered a contract with Scotti Brothers Records, resulting in the success of the single. Their first album under their own name, Tough All Over, reached US number 40 in 1985. The group subsequently relied primarily on placing its songs in films, and did so in Rocky IV, Cobra and the inevitable Eddie And The Cruisers II. A second album, Roadhouse, under their own name, failed to chart.

Parents use drugs, pass out in car with kids
Jefferson Parish authorities said a mother and father are behind bars after they passed out from using heroin in a parked car in Metairie, WWL-TV reported. Their two young children were in the car with them at the time, according to deputies.
The incident happened Sunday afternoon near Bonnabel and Veterans boulevards.
The parents apparently had a bad reaction to the heroin and passed out, said Col. John Fortunato, a Sheriff's Office spokesman. Their 4-month-old and 11-month-old sons were in the car with them at the time.
People passing by became concerned when they saw the couple passed out in the car and called the Sheriff's Office, Fortunato said.
Deputies awakened the parents and placed them under arrest. They face counts of endangering a child, having drugs and paraphernalia in the presence of a child, and possessing heroin, among other charges.
The Sheriff's Office did not immediately release the identity of the mother and father.
The two children were taken to the hospital for precautionary reasons, Fortunato said, but they suffered no injuries.
Pedestrian killed while crossing Elysian Fields
A pedestrian crossing Elysian Fields Avenue was struck and killed Sunday afternoon, the New Orleans Police Department said.
The unidentified man was walking across the 2600 block of Elysian Fields when he was hit, police said.
The driver of the vehicle that struck the victim remained on the scene. Police did not say whether any charges were pending.
No other details were immediately available.

A man was shot Sunday afternoon in New Orleans East, police said.

Man shot in leg late Saturday in Central City
A man was shot in the leg late Saturday night in Central City, New Orleans police said.
The victim was walking near Second and Danneel streets about 10:15 p.m. when he was hit, police said.
His condition was not available.
Argument about phone ends in man's stabbing
New Orleans police arrested a woman after she allegedly cut a man during an argument about a cellphone.
Bridgette Gray, 29, stabbed the victim at about 9:20 a.m. Saturday in the 4600 block of Sandalwood Street.
Gray remained jailed Sunday on counts of aggravated battery, domestic abuse battery and criminal damage, according to Orleans Parish Prison records. Bail was set at $5,000.
Man carjacked, robbed on N.O. East street
A man was carjacked and robbed of his cellphone Saturday afternoon in New Orleans East, police said.
The 66-year-old victim was sitting in his car in the 6800 block of Lake Willow Drive when three men walked up to him about 3:30 p.m.
One of the men, who carried a gun, ordered the victim out of his car and also took his cellphone.
Police did not provide a description of the men.

Support » Plugin: YouTube Channel » [Plugin: YouTube Channel] Subscription box suggestion
5 years ago
Hi great people out there,
I was searching for a way to put a subscription button instead of my channel link which is already exist at the widget option. I came through this following lines which I already added right after youtube tube video player iframe (line 351)
<iframe scrolling="no" frameborder="0" id="uT" src="http://www.youtube.com/subscribe_widget?p=YourChannelName" style="overflow: hidden; height: 105px; width: 280px; border: 0;">
I couldn't find a way to style the text or the placement of the button. Also one of the drawbacks of this solution is, if you're already subscribed and you're already signed in your account the button is still there and "Now you're subscribed" success message will appear after clicking the button but it did work anyway, hope we will see subscription box integration in the next plugin release.

Lisa Morgan: We've expanded rapidly in the last few years. You've got to remember that when PS2 launched, we had something like 411 stores, all in the UK and Ireland. To now have around 1,100 stores across all of these different markets is a dramatic transformation.
David Thomas: If you look at where we are now, we're at just under 1,100 stores, and we're going to continue to open stores particularly in Iberia and in Australia – that's where we see the greatest growth opportunities. We also see some growth of the Gamestation brand in the UK. The US markeplace is not one that GAME has looked at.
And what of the Gamestation acquisition? What's the latest on the Competition Commission investigation?
DT: When we completed the acquisition we said at the time that the integration would take place around Q2 2008, so we've always recognised that, given the key importance of the Christmas period, that we wouldn't be able to start the integration until 2008.
Our undertakings with the Competition Commission mean that any detailed planning regards integration is very much on hold. We see GAME and Gamestation as two separate brands we will continue to operate separately on the High Street. What we will be loooking to do is to take advantage of GAME's infrastructure to allow Gamestation to leverage its business on that.
LM: We will, of course, do everything in our power to entice as many of the Gamestation team to join GAME Group and help us to move forward. We're very confident. Right from the off we've got a very clear case and good evidence to support it.
The bulk of our investment is in the GAME brand, although we are opening stores in the UK. But taking the GAME brand on an international scale has been our focus. Over and above that we are also investing in our online-strategy and improving upon our whole offer.
What are your thoughts on the forthcoming peak period?
LM: There's a line-up of software all the way through to December that's really strong and on a whole range of formats – I think what's really interesting about the release schedule is that there's such a broad range of product to appeal to all types of consumers – so you've got your Halo 3s to appeal to the core gamers, but then you've got other products like High School Musical and The Simpsons that have huge family appeal.
There aren't really any formats we're not confident in. The key is that we want to be the best positioned on the High Street with all of the hardware available in-store, so we can look after our customers. I would say we're really pleased with everything at the moment.
How are you planning to improve your position online?
LM: There's no doubt that the online environment is competitive and that Amazon and Play are by far the market leaders, and they lead on price. We feel that we can really focus on an online specialist offering, so the differnce between ourselves and the aforementioned is that we are really trying to intregrate online with our store offer.
So, for example, we're offering a facility for customers to order online and pick up in store, and they can also go online and access their GAME reward card accounts. So we're looking to improve overall. I think there is still plenty of opportunity for us to come in with our offer.

A theory of trust failure and vertical integration in industrial districts
We model the interaction of independent firms within an industrial district as a repeated game of trust, where cooperative outcomes are not due to the cultural attitudes of the players, but the result of non-cooperative behaviour taking place in a stable organizational setting. When the outside option of changing partners is not too attractive, cooperation may arise also without ties between firms; when such attractiveness increases, cooperation may only be guaranteed by making the relationship more stable through a formal commitment, which may lead to a fullyfledged vertical integration. As the efficiency gains of changing partners becomes even larger, stable relationships are no longer optimal and the traditional model of industrial districts breaks down.

Article published on

Interior view of German POW barracks, Camp Blanding, Florida, June 17, 1043.
ST. PETERSBURG The Florida Holocaust Museum presentS Humanity Beyond Barbed Wire: Hitlers Soldiers in the Sunshine States. The exhibit opens July 21 and continues through Oct. 27.
This Florida Holocaust Museum created exhibition is based on a book by Robert Billinger, Hitlers Soldiers in the Sunshine State. It illustrates the principles of a democratic nation and the humane treatment of enemy combatants during WWII.
A history of hate caused millions of deaths during the Holocaust. However, the treatment of German POWs in the United States during World War II created an obvious contrast as many former German POWs looked back on their experiences as positive ones.
Other exhibits on display
- Adam and Eve, recent paintings by Samuel Bak on view through Aug. 26.
Samuel Bak was born in 1933 in Vilna, Poland, and was recognized from an early age as possessing extraordinary artistic talent. As Vilna came under German occupation in 1940, Bak and his family moved into the Vilna ghetto, and later to a labor camp, from which he was smuggled and given refuge in a monastery. At the end of the war, his mother and he were the only members of his extensive family still alive.
Bak, now 76, has spent his life dealing with the artistic expression of the destruction and dehumanization which make up his childhood memories. He speaks about what are deemed to be the unspeakable atrocities of the Holocaust. He has created a visual language to remind the world of its most desperate moments.
Upcoming exhibits
- Reflections on Mans Fate: The Art of Judith Weinshall Liberman on view Sept. 8 through Jan. 20, 2013
Drawn from the Florida Holocaust Museums permanent collection, this exhibition is made up of paintings and textile work by award-winning artist Judith Weinhall Liberman. The collection includes wall hangings and works on canvas from her Holocaust Paintings, Holocaust Wall Hangings, Skulls Series and Genocide Series. Her work focuses on the present state of mankind as well as the relentlessness and enormity of historys darkest period.
Born in Israel, Liberman received four American university degrees including a J.D. degree from the University of Chicago Law School and an LL.M. degree from the University of Michigan Law School. She redirected her interest in law to her passion for art. Liberman is the award-winning author-illustrator of The Birds Last Song. Her work has been exhibited in one-person and group shows throughout the United States and abroad, and in public and private collections.
- Letters to Sala: A Young Womans Life in Nazi Labor Camps on view Sept. 15 through Dec. 31
The power of the written word to sustain life is a theme of Letters to Sala: A Young Woman's Life in Nazi Labor Camps. Sala Garncarz saved the items, including handwritten postcards, photographs and official documents from the time she entered a labor camp in 1940 until her liberation in 1945.

text: ok im sure you all know what a gravity bong/bucket/bucket bong/pisser is but some people have different methhods of making them i have a preferred way of doing it so id like to share it with you guys and girls as it is a very very efficient way to smoke the herb. the only down side to it is its a bitch to hide if your parents/landlord care about drugs but i have a park right near my house and i just leave it there hidden in the stair case. 1. cut the top off a 2 litre bottle and fill up with water 2.get a smaller bottle and burn 2, finger tip size holes across from eachother at the bottom of the bottle on the side, now sink this bottle in the 2 litre. 3. take the lid off the smaller bottle and make a hole in the top, take scizzors and twist themin the hole (making the hole bigger) until a small rachet bit (5 mm is ideal) will fit in snugly in the hole so it is air tight (tin foil will do but that is some nasty ass shit and should only be used in an emergency) 4. pack weed in the rachet bit and screw the cap on the bottle while its in the water 5.hold a lighter to the weed whilst pulling the bottle out of the water SLOWLY (there is no screen, so fast pulling will cause u to lose your weed through the hole ). 6.unscrew bowl, put your lips on the mouth of the bottle that is now white walled with smoke and take the hit 7.repeat steps 4 through 6 until nicely toasted(should only need 2-4 hits to reach max high before your just wasting weed this is the absolute best way to get the most out of your weed just remember if your a regular user replace the smaller, middle bottle, often as it gets really nasty after a few uses just to clear things up i realize everyone has there preferred smoking utensils but ive tried everything under the sun u can smoke with and find this one is the most efficient for the act of getting high, for chilling, or style reasons a joint or pipe may not be as involved with smoking but you have to admit these have something to be inproved in the size of hit department lol sorry if ivee been talking in circles but im really baked and felt this needed to be made public

No worries about traffic congestion on the InterCounty Connector today. Maryland's newest highway saw a large drop in the number of vehicles traveling the road on the first day of toll collections.
According to the Maryland Transportation Authority, about 2,100 vehicles traveled the ICC, also known as Md. 200, between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m. Monday, considered the peak traffic time for morning rush hour. During the test drive period, when drivers could zip down the highway free of charge, about 5,500 vehicles were on the road during that same time.
Tollbooths began collection at 12:01 a.m. today. The ICC is the first all-electronic toll road in Maryland, allowing drivers to pay fares via E-ZPass while maintaining highway speeds – the speed limit on the ICC is 55 mph. Without an E-ZPass, drivers will get a $3 bill in the mail for each one way trip.

The Centre for Military Medicine in Lahti, Finland was established in 2006. The center provides medical training for military personnel with particular emphasis on management of typical military first response emergencies on the battlefield and multifarious disasters. The center also offers its educational services to external civil organizations.
Simulation training: The center for Military Medicine was looking to renew its educational models as the instructors wanted to bring more realism into replicated war-like scenarios developed for paramedic training. The center found that a simulation studio would enable the training team to recreate more lifelike battlefields, treatment sites, and rare types of emergency situations than the more traditional methods had previously allowed for. Hence, a full-scale simulation lab with a control room was built where both soldiers and civilians train today.
Effects: By adjusting the lighting, applying smoke and the sound of explosions, soldiers experience an augmented realistic feel to the staged battles, where a patient's injury may vary from a gunshot wound to a fragment injury. The training sessions are recorded by wireless microphones and three cameras and stored on a DVD. The content is analyzed during personalized debriefings that take place right after each scenario.
Main purpose of Crisis Resource Management training:
- Learn efficient use of resources
- Enhance communication skills
- Learn to act under pressure in a disciplined, productive manner
- Team training
Soldier scenarios: Gunshot injuries, fragment injury, blast injury, mine injury, fire injury, pressure injury, victim of a chemical weapon, victim of a biological weapon. Topics of the pre-planned scenarios are revealed to the soldiers right before start, but the trainees have no clue as to how the scenario will develop as this is controlled by the instructor in the control room.
Civilian scenarios: Brain injury, hypothermia, impaired general condition, drowning, cardiogenic shock, convulsions, poisoning, victim of radioactive material exposure, chest pain, heart failure, electric shock etc.
Training equipment: The center's training equipment currently includes 6 SimMan, a selection of Resusci Anne manikins along with MiniAnne/CPRAnytime kits used for initial acquisition of basic life support skills.
Pleased users: RN and simulation instructor Jutta Sarakangas says "The trainees are all very satisfied with the simulation program." Although the program has grown over time, the instructor aims for even more advanced equipment: ''Hopefully we will have an opportunity to exchange some of our SimMan manikins for a SimMan 3G in the future.''

Local bourse declines to close at below 7,100
The China Post news staff and CNA Thursday, November 22, 2012, 12:39 pm TWN
Shares on the Taiwan Stock Exchange fell into negative territory yesterday, closing below the 7,100 point mark, on futures-led selling, dealers said.
Seeking to push down share prices on the spot market for a profit in the futures market, foreign institutional investors focused their selling on large-cap stocks, in particular in the old economy sector, dealers said.
Select high-priced electronics such as smartphone vendor HTC Corp. and handheld camera lens supplier Largan Precision Co., however, staged a technical rebound, lending some support to the broader market, dealers added.
The weighted index closed down 57.28 points, or 0.80 percent, at 7,088.49, after moving between 7,061.87 and 7,169.40. Turnover during the session totaled NT$55.51 billion.
The market opened up 4.47 points and moved to the day's high as investors saw Wall Street recovering from an earlier low after Washington released improving housing market data, dealers said.
However, as the index moved closer to the nearest technical resistance around 7,200 points, investors rushed to lock in their gains, dragging the index into the red by the end of the session, dealers said.
'Don't make things worse'
The fact Taiwan stocks fell despite rallies across the globe drew complaints from the island's brokerage association yesterday.
"A string of recent government measures have produced a dire impact on stocks," the group said. "If the government can't help improve stocks, that's fine. Just don't make things worse."
Among the large-cap old economy stocks, Formosa Plastics fell 1.78 percent to close at NT$71.60, and Nan Ya Plastics dropped 3.14 percent to NT$46.30 amid lingering concerns over falling demand for petrochemical products.
In the financial sector, China Life Insurance lost 2.72 percent to close at NT$23.25, and Fubon Financial Holding fell 1.61 percent to NT$30.65 on profit taking.
While selling focused on the old economy sector, select high-tech stocks appeared resilient, with HTC rising 2.33 percent to NT$241.50 and Largan up 1.60 percent at NT$697.00.
At the end of the session, the plastics and chemical sector had suffered the heaviest selling among the eight major sectors of the market, finishing down 1.75 percent.
Paper and pulp stocks fell 1.58 percent, while financials shed 1.26 percent.

DNA breakthrough in 1981 baby death
Police have revealed a DNA breakthrough in the case of a newborn baby found washed up dead on a beach 28 years ago.
Forensic scientists have unlocked a full genetic profile of the infant and an almost complete profile of a second person most likely to be the mother.
The case was referred to by the media at the time as the "Baby on the Beach" after the little girl's body was found near Weymouth's pier bandstand in Dorset by three men out metal detecting on October 15 1981.
The baby's body was in a white carrier bag which was in a larger canvas bag found just above the high waterline of the beach. The carrier bag had "Bath Street Wine Cellar, Quality Wine Merchant, Jersey CI" printed on the side.
One theory is that the baby was thrown overboard from the ferry between Weymouth and Jersey in the Channel Islands.
Dorset Police crime review officer Phil James, a former detective superintendent with the force, has been investigating the cold case since March.
He said: "I'm appealing for the baby's parents to come forward in confidence and contact the police. They may be keen to bring closure to this very sad case and may wish to do this with some dignity, rather than live in fear of receiving that unexpected call."
No match was found for the second person's DNA profile against nearly four million people on the national database but it will help police identify and eliminate people as the investigation continues.
Officers also want to hear from a man who gave information "of interest" to police in August this year.
Mr James said: "While being sympathetic to the potential circumstances of this case, and appreciating the delicate nature of this inquiry, Dorset Police has a duty to bring this unsolved historic case to a conclusion and is committed to doing so."

Post Secondary
The purpose of the Postsecondary Options Program is to provide high school juniors and seniors who are intellectually and socially capable of doing college work with an additional education option. This is a selective program that gives high school students the opportunity to take college courses in college for both high school and college credit. The students selected to participate in Option B of the program will have their school districts pay for their college coursework.
Admission and fees
Ohio University Lancaster has approximately 100 applicants for the program each year from 18 area high schools. Applicants must be in the top 25% of their high school class and complete the Ohio University placement test. A high school transcript with a letter from the high school guidance counselor confirming that the student has notified the school of his or her intent to participate in the program are required. Successful applicants must place at the 12th grade reading level on the Nelson-Denny Reading Test and at the freshmen level on both the Ohio University math and English placement test. All of these tests are given frequently on the Lancaster Campus. There is a $20 application fee which must accompany the application.
Program Requirements
All students who wish to participate in the program must attend an initial orientation session to acquaint themselves with the procedures, rules, and processes relating to the program and the University. Students meet with an academic advisor prior to each quarter to discuss course selection. Close contact is maintained with the students' high school guidance counselors to ensure proper course selection and participation in the program. Students in the program must maintain a C average (2.0) to continue in the program.
Many students who have been involved in the program find it an excellent way to start their college coursework, especially since the campus is small with small classes. Courses taken while in the program earn regular college credits and are transferable to other colleges.
Visit (all subareas)
Placement Testing
All new, incoming freshmen (and transfer students who have not taken freshmen-level math and/or English) must take the Placement Test. The Placement Test will examine a student's math, English, and reading skills. Academic advisors will use the results of this test to place students in the proper courses. The placement test requires advanced registration at no charge. No calculators are permitted.
To register online click here or call (614) 367-9371 or 1 (888) 446-4468 ext. if you reside outside Fairfield County.
Orientation is designed to acquaint new students with the Campus. Students will have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with admissions, registration, and financial aid policies and procedures; meet with academic advisors to learn how to plan their schedules; and how they can best prepare for the first day of classes. In addition, students will be introduced how to remotely access library resources. Currently the Lancaster bookstore will provide free shipping to Pickerington students for purchased textbooks. Because orientation has limited seating, advanced registration is required.

Note on zero lower bound worries
Although some authors have suggested that monetary expansion is still possible when the monetary policy interest rate cannot be reduced further, central banks tend to avoid interest rates close to the zero lower bound. Taking into account central banks.aversion to very low interest rates, we investigate optimal monetary policy in a New-Keynesian macro-economic model. Our analysis shows that appointing a central banker with a high aversion to low interest rate levels can mitigate the zero bound risk at the cost of persistent in.ation deviations from target. If fear of the zero lower bound is unfounded, it is better to appoint a central banker with no aversion to the zero lower bound, who will not shy away from unorthodox policies when the policy interest rate cannot be reduced further.

- Vague handling
- Automatic transmission response
- Poor fuel economy
The 2010 Volvo V70 and XC70 wagons offer lots of practicality and safety, providing buyers with an alternative to regular mid-size SUVs.
The 2010 Volvo V70 and XC70 combine the brand's reputation for safety and quaint Swedish flair in a conventional station wagon body. The XC70 goes a step further by offering the ruggedness of an SUV with the practicality and dynamics of a station wagon, providing buyers with an alternative to regular mid-size SUVs. Changes for 2010 are kept to a minimum, though all models are now more fuel efficient.
The 2010 Volvo V70 and XC70 won't win any awards for styling, but they're hardly unpleasant. The XC70 looks a bit manlier, thanks to its protective lower-body cladding and skid plates; however, a new R-Design package for the V70 adds bigger wheels, a sport-tuned suspension, and unique styling elements inside and out. Inside, the V70 and XC70 feature a minimalistic look that's highlighted by Volvo's trademark "floating" center stack design.
Despite the update, the V70 and XC70 still suffer from poor fuel economy for their respective classes, and performance-wise, there's nothing to shout about for either. Last year Volvo added a new T6 AWD model to the XC70 lineup in an effort to boost its sporting credentials, offering slightly more performance over the base naturally aspirated 235-horsepower, 3.2-liter model. Its turbocharged six-cylinder engine displaces 3.0 liters and is rated at 281 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. Both engines offer adequate pulling power, though fuel economy isn't very impressive. The output of the base engine dips to 225 horsepower for models sold in California-emissions states and rated with a partial-zero-emissions (PZEV) tag. With the 3.0-liter turbocharged engine, the XC70 can accelerate to 60 in 7.1 seconds—more than a second faster than the base engine. Fuel economy for both engines is 16 mpg city/22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined. A six-speed automatic transmission is standard on all variants and provides smooth gear changes most of the time, although it can balk when a downshift is needed for hills. Also standard on the XC70 is a Haldex-sourced all-wheel-drive system that sends 95 percent of the power to the front wheels during normal driving and up to 65 percent to the rear wheels when conditions start to get slippery. This is ideal when off-roading, which the toughened wagon's higher ground clearance and heavy-duty suspension allow for.
Interior space is impressive for both passengers and their gear. The second row is split into three separate cushions, each of which folds forward flat to amplify cargo space. With the rear seats folded flat, the V70 can hold 71 cubic feet of cargo, while the XC70 can hold 72 cubic feet. All controls are well laid out and intuitive to reach. One nifty feature is the optional navigation system, which neatly tucks inside the dash when not in use. Ride quality is especially good if you get the automatic damping control, which firms up the suspension quickly when needed for sharper cornering control, allowing for a soft and absorbent ride under normal driving.
Volvo is a brand renowned for its safety prowess, so it's not surprising that the V70 and XC70 come packed with a bevy of safety features fitted as standard. The list includes anti-lock disc brakes, stability control, front-seat side airbags, full-length side curtain airbags, and anti-whiplash front head restraints. Integrated rear booster seats are standard on the V70 but remain an option on the XC70, as are a blind-spot monitor and recently introduced Technology package. This latter feature adds adaptive cruise control, collision warning with "Auto Brake" (which reduces brake reaction time by priming the pads up against the discs), a driver fatigue warning system, and lane-departure warning. Hill Descent Control also helps with slick, steep downhill slopes.
Standard goodies on the 2010 V70 include Bluetooth connectivity, fog lamps, heated side mirrors, a power driver's seat, keyless entry, cruise control, and dual-zone climate control. Optional extras include front and rear parking assist, heated front and rear seats, heated wiper nozzles, headlamp cleaners, active bi-xenon headlamps, a dual-screen rear DVD system, adaptive cruise control, and a 650-watt Dynaudio surround-sound system. Last year saw the introduction of a Technology Package (including adaptive cruise control and several accident-avoidance aids) that groups together the bi-xenon headlamps, the premium Dynaudio sound system, and Sirius Satellite Radio.

Since updating to the latest version, I can no longer send emails with attachments and neither can another co-worker who uses Thunderbird.
Everyone else in our office using Outlook or Eudora (through the same email server) is not having the problem and it appears to be a Thunderbird-only problem.
Here's the message:
"Your email message was unable to be sent because your mail server rejected the message: 550 5.7.1k74GnnBD026006 This message does not comply with required standards."
Again this is with forwarding messages with attachments or sending attachments initially.
Our server says they have no idea what the problem is. If I switch to Outlook and send the same email with attachments there is no problem.
Anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

The University of Central Arkansas' president has lost his job after not telling school trustees that a company's $700,000 grant to renovate his university-owned house came with strings attached.
Allen C. Meadors met with the board of trustees Thursday and apologized for not telling them the home renovation grant was conditional on the renewal of Aramark's food services contract with Central Arkansas.
Meadors offered his resignation after the meeting. The board met Friday to accept it and negotiate a buyout.
Meadors will be paid his $225,000 salary through 2013. Private donors will pay the salary starting next July.
The school's general counsel, Tom Courtway, will take over temporarily.
Meadors is the second consecutive Central Arkansas president to leave under pressure. Lu Hardin resigned in 2008 after trustees questioned his bonuses.

I want to make some babies and teddy bears using some mouds and i wondered whether sugarpaste or fondant would be the best for making them with. I also would prefer something that set quite well so it makes it easier to handle and less likely to get damaged

AI would use 50/50 gumpaste and fondant. It will allow you more working time to decorate or mold your figure before it loses its pliability and dries. Good luck :)

The Basics of Astrology
Miss Pisces: compatibility with ?
Disclaimer: compatibility between signs constitutes only a small part of the characteristics of the couple's relationship. Indeed, it would be nonsensical to claim to be able to assess two persons' compatibility, or the lack of, on the sole position of the Sun in the sign where he is found in their astrological charts.
However, for some reason, it is obvious that certain signs get along better with some other signs. We provide here a short synthesis of compatibility basics. Its level of accuracy depends on how strongly your Sun sign is emphasized in your natal chart.
Our indications are given for a woman's chart. For a man, the meaning is quite the same, except that it is exactly the other way around. So, it is very simple to adapt our texts to the opposite gender. And don't forget to take a look at our advanced advices about astrological compatibility, at the free Love test and of course at the famous free CeleStar.
One last detail: does a zodiacal sign get along well with itself? The answer is not necessarily positive, contrarily to what one might think at the outset. The place where the Sun is posited expresses a will, a need for self-assertion, and some sort of authoritarianism; wills of a similar nature may clash in spite of the fact that they can understand each other. Therefore, harmony is uncertain and depends mainly on the remainder of the partners' natal charts. Nevertheless, compatibility is usually good, although not as much as in the case of complementary signs.
Perfect harmony
Miss Pisces, you will be very often attracted to men who have the Ascendant or the Sun in Virgo. Their nature is so deeply anchored into concrete things, and their attention to details is so extreme that it is certain that they will offer you all the indispensable and complementary elements you need in order to harmoniously control your specific nature that is very generous and whimsical. In addition, you will be able to properly run the home you will set up with them.
Excellent harmony
You will get along very well with Cancer and Scorpio men because they belong to the same Water element as you, and they are affective signs like you. You understand each other without using words, and you have the same surges of mystical feelings. Cancerians will offer you the protection you need, whereas Scorpios will offer their ardour and the delights of the forbidden fruit.
Good harmony
Taurus men will also arouse your interest. You appreciate their warm personality and their benevolence. They will stir up such a powerful enthusiasm in your heart that they will make you feel that your dream has turned into tangible reality. You equally appreciate Capricorns' capacity to master all concrete and practical matters. They are at the same time deep and patient. Therefore, they are able to understand you and that weird side of yours, which they find so attractive, precisely.
Possible conflicts: watch out!
There is a danger that conflicts will crop up with Gemini and Sagittarius men. Geminis are not sentimental enough and do not let their heart rule their head. Therefore, they tend to consider you as an extraterrestrial alien. Sagittarians are so active and adventurous that they are not able to understand the reason why you don't translate into concrete reality the projects you cultivate in your heart. They will get impatient and will grow weary.
What about the four other signs?
To tell the truth, you must bear in mind that adjacent signs have nothing in common. Thus, the relationship you may experience with Aries and Aquarius men will be a bit neutral, neither good nor bad, and certainly nothing nasty. Arians are probably too impulsive and off-hand, whereas Aquarians are likely to be too curt for you.
Hot and cold, double-edged energy
Leos and Libras stir up in you blended feelings of warm curiosity and natural distrust. Leo men are not discreet enough, and so self-assured, whereas Libra men are so refined and so concerned about appearances and proprieties that the outcomes of the challenge seem quite uncertain!
Here are a few famous people with the Sun or the Ascendant in Pisces: thousands of celebrities with the Sun in Pisces, thousands of celebrities with the Ascendant in Pisces!
You can immediately look at the natal chart of each celebrity and their picture. Most often, a biography is also available along with the planets' positions, the house cusps, and the list of aspects. Of course, detailed birth data are provided: date, time and place of birth. With the famous Celestar, you are also offered the possibility to get an estimate of your affinities with about 35000 celebrities or measure it among them, and to examine dynamic charts featuring graphic options that you can customize.

About the Movie
The all-star comedy cast from Grown Ups returns (with some exciting new additions) for more summertime laughs. Lenny (Adam Sandler) has relocated his family back to the small town where he and his friends grew up. This time around, the grown ups are the ones learning lessons from their kids on a day notoriously full of surprises: the last day of school.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: This is pap, plain and simple: scattered raunch-lite devoid of emotional resonance.
Rotten: [The] lazy, scattershot and anything-but-mature sequel to the leaden Grown-Ups.
Rotten: Grown Ups Minus 2 would be more apt.
Rotten: Apparently the world demanded another family-friendly version of "The Hangover," one that combined scatological comedy with smarmy sentimentality.
Customer Reviews
It's hard to imagine how a movie like "Grown Ups 2" could be even lazier than its terrible predecessor, but here we are. Once again, Adam Sandler, his comedian buddies (minus Rob Schneider), and a whole bunch of celebrities in thankless cameo roles have come together to give us one of the absolute worst comedies of 2013, a film so grating, mean-spirited, and uninspired in its humor that it deserves to be placed in its own special genre of bad filmmaking. With no actual plot, the movie merely strings together a ton of randomly cheap gags and corny vulgarity. It's so fragmented that it nearly feels like one of those awful spoof films ("Date Movie," "Epic Movie," "Disaster Movie," the list goes on), except it isn't. Director Dennis Dugan and the gang try to cram in as much lowbrow idiocy, dopey sentimentality, and obnoxious product plugs as possible, and by the end, no laughs are expressed (well, other than those by the cast). Lenny (Sandler) and his three best pals Eric, Kurt, and Marcus (Kevin James, Chris Rock, and David Spade) have moved right back to their hometown and are planning a big party like in the old days, complete with a cheesy 1980s theme. Their kids have various things going on, from first dates to driving tests. Though in Marcus' case, his child happens to be a teenaged thug (Alexander Ludwig) he only just discovered he had. Meanwhile, the guys spark a war with a giant gang of airhead fratboys (led by Taylor Lautner, Milo Ventimiglia, and Patrick Schwarzenegger). At the very start, four lamely written scenes reintroduce us to the annoying characters, their families, and Dugan's terrible over-reliance on corny special effects. In particular, the film actually opens with Sandler waking up to find a badly animated deer "relieving" itself all over him and his wife, Salma Hayek. And believe it or not, it somehow manages to get worse from there. There's virtually no mention of Schneider's character from the first film, as if he never existed in the first place. But then again, no one even bothers to act at all: Sandler is basically just playing with his obnoxious friends the whole time. Hayek, Maria Bello, and Maya Rudolph are back as Lenny, Eric, and Kurt's wives, respectively, and their roles just couldn't be more thankless. What's worse is that the film's heavy-handed themes are all over the place, belittling any real issue that's ever brought up, such as bullying, with zero sincerity. Honestly, these are nothing more than actors on cruise control. Then, big-name cameo performers like Jon Lovitz and Steve Austin randomly turn up only to make a few unfunny jokes. And it's not much better for bit-part players like Steve Buscemi, Tim Meadows, Shaquille O'Neal, and the increasingly unbearable Nick Swardson. Frankly, this whole thing isn't much more than a relentlessly bad stream of candy-coated offensiveness and scatological comedy with no real purpose, not to mention a vivid depiction of seriously terrible parenting (in any film). It's little more than toilet jokes and misogynistic men leering at gorgeous women, and there isn't a single real laugh in the entire movie. In fact, hardly anyone even chuckled in the theater I was in. Essentially, it's nearly like being trapped in a locker room full of dim-witted 12-year-olds for 100 painfully long minutes. And the thing is, the cast and crew would probably take that as a compliment. So unless you really loved the first film or you're just curious to see what bad moviemaking is like, there's no reason why you should subject yourself to this idiotic disaster.
I really don't understand why no one likes this movie. But I think it is THE BEST MOVIE EVER!!!!!!!
OMG I love grown ups
My favorite movie by far is grown ups and grown ups 2.

It's really nice to see that some things never do change. Tuesday evening, the Pullman City Council gave a resounding "no" vote to the implementation of the University District on College Hill. The city council said the plan became too vague after WSU president Elson S. Floyd presented the council with an empty box for suggestions a little over a month ago.
At Tuesday evening's city council meeting, there was a large contingent of students in attendance in support of creating the University District. They were mostly made up of rather ignorant and stupid freshman (glad I never was one) and the ASWSU folks who voted unanimously to support the district a few weeks ago. My impression is that they voted for it largely because nothing was in it so it meant….nothing.
As a note to you alumni returning for football weekends and such: this does not mean you can walk around with an open beer. That law still applies.
What surprises most about this decision on this topic is the drastically changing opinion of the ASWSU. Before the holidays, they were staunchly against voting for such a proposal. Perhaps it was the honey baked ham at Christmas or the heavy drinking of the New Year that changed their minds but the ASWSU had gone 180 degrees different on their opinion in January. What changed about the proposal was that it was essentially reduced to nothing for the city council to decide what happens and the ASWSU could just give it to them to figure it out.
Worse yet, the ASWSU Senate tried to take the city council to task a couple weeks back at a joint meeting when they said some houses on College Hill should be condemned and it's the city's fault for not inspecting them. When a senior member of the council expressed concern and asked for the addresses of the homes, the senators kind of mumbled that they couldn't remember. I'm sure you couldn't remember. I think a more likely explanation is they didn't want a city inspector discovering the horticultural activities going on in the basement. And when the ASWSU complained that the students couldn't be involved in the planning or running of College Hill, the city council reminded them there are a number of organizations that students can join.
I have one word for the ASWSU: owned. There was nothing you ever said that gave a compelling reason to create the district; you mainly liked it because you no longer had to worry about anything when Floyd presented the city council with an empty box. ASWSU president Brandon Scheller said the problems of College Hill won't go away and that the city council is counting on students to forget about the problems. So, essentially, Scheller is trying to blame the city council for something for which they should not be shouldering the blame because ASWSU essentially passed the buck. The city is perfectly well aware of the problems on College Hill, but they have the rest of the city to take care of and frankly they are going to worry about their full-time tax paying residents before they worry about a bunch of college students who are here for the drinking and sometimes school only eight months out of the year.
A round of applause is deserved for the Pullman City Council. Especially to esteemed mayor/professor/public address announcer/guy who has hair I'm jealous of - Glenn Johnson - for actually sitting through a bunch of these meetings and being able to stay diplomatic rather than letting loose of the fumes I knew that were bubbling inside. Well done, city council.
The students, for once, will stand up in a round of applause for the foresight to tell ASWSU to go back to the drawing board and actually bring them something substantial so they aren't wasting the council's valuable time.
Sunday morning was another day that was eventful at city hall where the Pullman Police are also positioned and where Cougar quarterback Marshall Lobbestael was found in a pick-up truck with a bag of upchuck between his feet. He has been charged with minor exhibiting signs of intoxication. Some advice for Ocho Rojo: don't bother hiring a good lawyer, a crappy state-appointed defense attorney can tear this one apart because it sounds pretty subjective and completely made up.
Last Week: 1-6
Overall: 41-26
My apologies to the WSU men's team for doubting they could win at Pauley. Although you can't blame me, the win moved their overall record at the home of the Bruins to a whooping 2-50.
And my apologies for getting the USC/UCLA and Cal/Stanford games backwards. I will add them both to the record next week.
Game of the weekend in the conference finds its rightful place on the Worldwide Leader and the Bruins should begin their slow march back to the top with this one.
UCLA 67, California 59
Stanford has almost nothing left to play for and USC needs to keep winning to make to the tournament. It's not hard to wonder who is more motivated.
USC 70, Stanford 60
I saw Arizona State wear the Huskies down too much for the purple and gold to overcome the hottest team in the conference.
Arizona 76, Washington 70
It's Senior Day. The motivation will be there. And if you can beat the Devils in Tempe, why not in Pullman?
Washington State 58, Arizona State 50
Here's a barnburner for you! Go Ducks! Why Ducks? With the Beavs ahead of WSU in the Pac-10, I need the Beavers to lose. Will they? Yes!
Oregon 68, Oregon State 58
(Giggles) Stanford is going to Arizona to close out the season? (Giggles) They are SO done.
Arizona State 75, Stanford 61
Down in Tucson though, this one is interesting. Arizona is coming together to push to the Big Dance and they always seem to play well at home.
Arizona 71, California 65
Upset Alert! Ha! Just kidding.
UCLA 76, Oregon State 56
Still no upset alert here. Oregon is terrible and USC remains a strong team.
USC 69, Oregon 47
Dunderhead of the Week: Yankees' third baseman Alex Rodriguez. He admits he's done using steroids, he's clean and will play the game the right way. Then gets a ride home from his first spring training game from the very cousin who supplied him with the banned substances. Well done, sir.

KEEN-EYED wildlife watchers have been told to look out for 'Viking invaders' in Knutsford.
Cheshire Wildlife Trust says that a struggling autumn crop of berries and beech seeds in places like Sweden and Norway are forcing rare feathered travellers to Cheshire.
Among them are waxwings which have a habit of turning up in urban locations.
A small group of the birds were spotted in Parkgate industrial estate on Friday. The starling-sized cream-coloured birds with splashes of yellow and red on their wings and a distinctive crest, fly in to gorge themselves on berries.
Tom Marshall, from Cheshire Wildlife Trust, said: "Anywhere you see trees with bright orange or red berries is a great place to keep an eye out, it could be in the heart of town or even at school.
"As they're so occupied with feeding, you can often get pretty close and pick out the gorgeous colours on waxwings."

President Obama: 'Our Troops in Iraq Will Definitely be Home for the Holidays'
President Obama just announced this morning that US troops will leave Iraq by the end of year.
"After nearly nine years, America's war in Iraq will be over," President Obama said Friday, announcing full withdrawal of U.S. troops by year's end.
