The Power Of Worms - Vermicompost As An Organic
series: Growing A Greener World
air date: 4/20/13 6:00 PM
Sonoma, CA Princeton, NJ. - While worms are an important ingredient of the soil, they can steal the show in the compost pile. With vermicompost, worms do all the work of breaking down and decomposing kitchen scraps, turning it into nutrient rich castings for the garden. They take the garbage and turn it into black gold for the garden. This episode explores home vermicomposting, visits a commercial harvesting operation, and tours a "zero waste" company turning worm waste into a multi-million dollar operation as a natural fertilizer alternative.

Do You Agree with Constitutional Carry or Should Permits Be Required? [POLL]
We posted earlier about Arkansas becoming the fifth U.S. State to allow Constitutional Carry. Do you think it's a good idea, or would you rather training and permits be required?
Constitutional Carry means that the state has no laws to limit you from carrying a firearm, either concealed or out in the open like the old west days. Most states require training and a permit to carry a firearm.
What do you think of "Constitutional Carry"? Let us know by casting your vote in this poll...

If Revis goes you just replace him with another shut down corner you draft in round 1. Or, use the shutdown corner we already drafted in round 1 - Kyle ****ing Wilson. It's just that simple
If Revis goes you just replace him with another shut down corner you draft in round 1. Or, use the shutdown corner we already drafted in round 1 - Kyle ****ing Wilson. It's just that simple
You cant say "would you turn down millions" because it's not relative to a average Joe who only makes $70k a year, but if I was happy at a job making, say $100k, I would definitely pass on a job making $105 if I was happy where I was at.... Especially if I already had enough money in the bank to live like a rock star for multiple lifetimes like Revis does! LOL
Players do it all the time, Revis cant comprehend it because he is a greedy jackazz.
Jets options are rather limited. sign him now for Qb money. Watch him leave and get a fourth rounder( late third rounder) back in compensation in 2015. Or trade him now and get what you can. Probably a second rounder.
That what the Jets are looking at and it sucks that Jets can't get true value back for a special player. Every general manager knows the situation the Jets are facing. The ball in the Jets front office hands what they will do with Revis.

That would be the case if there wasn't 5-6 team interested in Revis.
He's an all time great with huge name recognition & he's still young.
Revis gets traded for a MINIMUM of a 1st, especially if its a late 1st rounder, that team would have to sweeten the pot with a conditional 2 nd in 2014.
A team like Atlanta that is a hair away from a Superbowl will be in he bidding if they can afford him.
He's probably started his 3 rd holdout already!
Serious ly, lets make a smart move for once and realize he's and we r not going to be able to resign him, and just save the tabloids the trouble of a holdout and turn the page already
- This remains to be seen, he's coming off a bad injury. Before the injury, you were right. Now? Not sure.
Remember the defense did fine without him this year. I hate to say it, but before I throw bunches of money at Revis, I'd pay Landry. He did a good job for us at safety.
What ever the Jets do, is it too much to ask them to act in a professional manner and not leak out all of these stories.
JMO and experience watching this unfold. NO team wants to trade for a top Cb ( pay the CB team price to acquire ). And still have to shell out Qb money to a player who isn't a QB.
It a different story if that player a FA and it just money it going to cost the team.
JMo with the Jets unable to put the franchise tag on Revis in 2014, that put them in a terrible position and probably going to cost them any chance at getting a number 1 from any team. ( Jets have no plans at signing Revis before training camp than they better get something for him. ( It's better to take the second round pick now than take the fourth in 2015 if he leaves in Fa.
even if Jets work out a trade, no team is making it unless they can sign a long term contract with Revis. If you're Revis why would you do that when there could be a real bidding war in 2014. ( Show me the money and back up the brinks truck). multiple teams competing for his services.
The jets were silly not to protect themselves there with the franchise tag.

"Fair" value is rarely ever achieved when trading a player of Revis' stature. First, he is not a QB or a dominant pass rusher thus his value is not as high as a player of those positions. Second, he has one year left on his deal. So he is either a one year rental for someone or the team has to sign him to the big money deal that Revis wants, that hurts his value because if a team HAS to pay him, they are going to be less willing to also give away a lot of draft picks.
Leaking this story was actually a smart move by the Jets. They get to gauge interest from other teams and see what value they can get and they send a message to Revis that his future with the Jets is not a given and are not going to be held hostage by him and give him a blank check.
another point. Revis is holding all the cards. Jet's can't franchise tag him in 2014( Tanny should have got fired just for that). Jets could get six first rounders for D Revis in a trade. You think d Revis is going to sign a contract extension with a team( he doesn't do that the trade is off). When he looking at unrestricted FA with so many teams bidding on his services.
Now if you were D Revis what would you do. Listen man I feel your pain ( went through this a lot). But you're getting screwed in any deal for Revis.
Last edited by Raider9175; 01-25-2013 at 10:52 AM.
The reality is there are only a handful of teams who have the cap space, disparately need help at DB and view themselves as only a few players away from the big game. Any trade would require the preliminary framework of a L/T deal before moving forward with the trade. This implicitly sets the table for internal negotiations. Its really a smart move all around. Management has a basis for setting the MKT value and if Revis isnt happy with the numbers, he can test the market himself.
It hard to justify to a team fan base why they let their best defensive player go for a late third rounder( which really a fourth rounder) which will happen if he get to training camp without a contract .( he's gone).
The Jet's don't even have the power of the franchise tag to play with. ( hold over his head) So if your D Revis and you get to training camp without a new contract than you cut off all talks with the Jets.
you prove to everyone you're 100% healthy in 2013. Than you watch how much money he gets as you have so many teams competing for his services on the open market in 2014.
That make D Revis one happy camper.

LTU Professor CJ Chung (at left in the back row) poses with presenters at the first WISER conference held at Lawrence Tech. Not pictured: José Antonio Romero Pliego of Mexico and Mike Dobbyn.
The inaugural World Conference on Integrated STEaM Education through Robotics, known as WISER 2014, was held May 16 at Lawrence Technological University in conjunction with the Robofest World Championships that were held the following day.
The goals of this first WISER conference were to:
• Bring together advocates to share their experiences and knowledge in robotics education.
• Exchange and discuss ideas in robotics education for the effective coordination of education in science technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) with art, in order to create a STEaM learning environment.
• Research how to advance robotics education and educational robotics technologies for every student through the STEaM learning paradigm.
Dean Hsiao-Ping Moore of LTU's College of Arts and Sciences gave opening remarks. Mike Dobbyn, who was a program chair, gave the plenary talk to start the conference. A teacher in the Hamtramck schools, Dobbyn received a master's degree in educational technology from LTU in 2010.
Nine presentations were made. The abstracts and presentation materials can be found on the web at www.robofest.net/index.php/current-competitions/wiser
WISER is another brain child of Professor CJ Chung of LTU's Department of Mathematics and Computer Science. He started Robofest 15 years ago, and WISER will become part of Robofest programming.
"With this WISER education research component, Robofest becomes a truly integrated learning environment for robotics education," Chung said.

Arsenal are ready to make a £15 million January bid for Chelsea striker Demba Ba, according to the Daily Star.
Ba, who has struggled for first-team opportunities at Stamford Bridge so far this season, is seen as Arsene Wenger as the ideal back-up to Olivier Giroud.
The Gunners boss only has Nicklas Bendtner as Giroud's main competitor up top, but now looks set to up his interest in the Blues forward as he targets Premier League glory this season.
Wenger had made Ba a target in the previous transfer window, and will now tempt the striker to north London in January.
Bendtner has failed to deliver when given the opportunity to lead the Gunners' attack this season and Ba could gain more first-team chances, should he make the move from the Bridge.
And with Samuel Eto'o and Fernando Torres now ahead of him in the pecking order at Chelsea, he could be tempted to join the north London outfit.

FORMER Eaglehawk boy turned Olympic silver medallist Glenn O'Shea was treated to a hero's welcome on Saturday.
The City of Greater Bendigo held an official acknowledgement ceremony in Hargreaves Mall and the Town Hall for athletes who competed in the London Olympics.
O'Shea, a silver medallist in the men's cycling team pursuit, said the Olympic experience was something he would never forget.
"London was fantastic; it was the first time I had ever been to London so I loved it," he said.
"It was pretty hard to not get caught up with the hype, but it was a great experience."
The 23-year-old, who earlier this year became the world champion in the men's omnium, said he was happy to come away with a silver medal in his first Olympics, but was disappointed not to go one better.
"Our goal as a team was to be successful," he said.
"We wanted to win the gold medal, so we were disappointed at first, but now that it is all finished we are all pretty happy with how we went."
Aspiring Olympic hopefuls asked O'Shea questions about what it took to become an elite athlete. O'Shea credited Bendigo's strong cycling culture to his recent success.
"I think cycling is a sport that has a lot of good role models – Anna Meares is a perfect example," he said.
"Cycling was always big when I grew up and I think the sport is getting more popular... Bendigo is a big part of that."
O'Shea said representing Australia was a strong motivation and he believed more work needed to be done before the next Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
"Rio is a goal," he said.
"I will have to see what happens; it is a long way away."
Bendigo rower Hannah Every-Hall could not make it to the ceremony but her parents and family were on hand to talk about the mother-of-two's first Olympic Games.
Every-Hall's mum Trinette read out a thank you to the community.
"Bendigo has embraced Hannah and she is sorry she couldn't make it today but thanks everyone who has supported her dream," she said.
Bendigo mayor Alec Sandner congratulated all of the region's athletes who competed in London who couldn't make it to the ceremony, including Kristi Harrower, Matthew Dellavedova and Glenn Warfe.

WILMINGTON, Mass. — Dont' worry about Boston Bruins goaltender Tim Thomas still stewing in his juices after he was unable to close out the Toronto Maple Leafs Thursday in the Bruins' 8-5 win. Thomas was removed in favor of Manny Fernandez after the second intermission with the Bruins holding a 6-5 lead.
"Pretty easily," Thomas said today after practice at Ristuccia Arena when asked how he turns the page after a rough night in the crease. "Say for example, if you get a shutout, you have to turn the page. It's the same process every time. Plus we won, 8-5. It's like if you're a pitcher for the Red Sox but you end up winning 11-10. Who cares in the overall picture? It's better than losing 2-1 and not getting the run support."
Of course, it's taken some time to learn how to deal with disappointment and even jubilation so that he can keep on an even keel.
"I usually turn the page by the next game," he said."But I'd probably carry it into the next day a little more (when I was younger). It's definitely something that comes with experience. Certainly, you have these nights over the course of a career. I've had them in Providence, I've had them in the NHL – once or twice every year that I've been in the NHL. And look around. (San Jose's Evgeni) Nabokov let up six last night (to Detroit)."

Raiders race Warriors down
Canberra have fought back from a 16 point deficit to emerge with a comfortable 42-22 victory at Mt. Smart stadium.
Entering the match without stars Josh Dugan and Sam Williams, the Raiders started the match poorly lacking the intensity that served them so well in Canberra last Friday.
It didn't take the Warriors long to capitalise as they nailed their trade-mark spread down the left-hand touchline to send Manu Vatuvei over for the opening try of the contest.
Canberra replied swiftly with Berrigan collecting a well positioned grubber from McCrone to lock the scores up.
The joy was short-lived though as Reece Robinson threw a wayward pass over the sidelines. The Warriors took advantage with Matulino spinning his way over the line with relative ease.
With all the momentum, the Warriors were able to extend their lead with tries to Godniet and Vatuvei who was able to collect his double with a carbon copy effort as his first try to hand the Warriors a promising 22-6 lead at half-time.
With a strong wind behind their backs, the Raiders emerged a more focussed side in the second half and made their intentions clear with a simple but effective try to underrated lock Shaun Fensom.
Warriors were desperate to hold the Raiders at bay and despite a try-saving intercept from Bill Tupou they just couldn't stop Reece Robinson who used his agility to bamboozle Maloney and extend his personal try tally to 15.
From there, nothing could stop the Raiders. In what was an all too familiar site for the Warriors they surrendered meekly allowing the Raiders to score a further 24 points including a great try to Blake Ferguson which included a freakish flick pass from enigmatic winger Sandor Earl.
Canberra will be sweating on the result of the Cronulla/Cowboys game to see whether or not they'll host a home final. While the Warriors will have an entire off-season to ponder how a side that was talented enough to be grand finalists bombed out of the 2012 premiership in such a disappointing fashion.

LeagueUnlimited.com Live Commentary Canberra will be looking to finish the season strongly after last week's shock upset over the Bulldogs - a superb performance. A win today gives them a shot at a home final depending on the result of the Sharks v Cowboys match later today.
Team changes: Warriors lose Sione Lousi off the bench, with James Maloney included. The starting side is 1-13. The Raiders lose Josh Dugan (ankle) and Sam Williams (shoulder). Dimitri Pelo comes into fullback (#19), with Shaun Berrigan at halfback. Joe Picker will start in the second row, relegating Joel Thompson to the bench. The new player on the interchange bench is Travis Waddell, who will likely relieve Glen Buttriss throughout the match at hooker.
1 min: Canberra kick off to get the game under way at Mt. Smart!
6 min: Forward pass from dummy half gifts Warriors with the first attacking chance of the game.
7 min: Warriors go left to hulking winger Manu Vatuvei who is swiftly shown the sideline 10m out from the Raiders line. Good defence but too predictable from the Warriors.
9 min: TRY
On the back of a McCrone mistake, the Warriors once again find themselves in premium territory and take advantage. Tuimavave combines with Hurrell to send the 'Beast' over to open the scoring for the day.
New Zealand Warriors 6-0
11 min: What a remarkable kick off! The breeze holds the kick off allowing the Raiders to reclaim possession on the Warriors 30m line.
13 min: Warriors defence held firm and now the Raiders are rucking it out of their own half.
14 min: Anxious moments for young Carlos Tuimavave at the back as he appeared to have lost it. Fortunately for him the referee calls it a strip.
15 min: Jacob Lillyman is penalised for holding down. Shillington decides against going for touch and takes a quick tap from around halfway & the Raiders are deep on attack here!
16 min: TRY
McCrone with a wall of chasers kicks the ball behind the line & Berrigan is rewarded with just his 2nd try of the season.
18 min: Raiders create the numbers down the right but Robinson spoils the play by throwing a terrible forward pass that ends up going over the sideline. Warriors with the ball at around the Raiders 30m mark.
20 min: TRY
Matulino produces a trademark steam-rolling run adjacent the posts to reclaim the lead for the Warriors. Raiders defence was brittle all set & it appeared to only be a matter of which tackle the Warriors would score.
New Zealand Warriors 12-6
25 min: Both sides just happy to ruck it up here. Raiders are winning the territory battle slightly but the wind is making it difficult to build any pressure.
26 min: Off the scrum Vatuvei makes a good break down the left fringe before being taken down by McCrone. In his desperation, McCrone holds onto Vatuvei too long conceding the penalty for the Warriors. Hint of a professional foul but the referee doesn't see it that way.
28 min: TRY
Beautiful passes from Mateo & Tuimavave gives Vatuvei all the space he needs down the left hand sideline to collect a deserved early double. Henry just misses the conversion from the sideline.
New Zealand Warriors 16-6
32 min: Change of angles from the ruck gives Maloney the room to make half a break down the right fringe. However, his pass to Ben Henry is poor & just as Henry gathers it he's taken into touch 40m away from the Raiders line.
34 min: A poor kick from Berrigan spoils an otherwise promising set for the Raiders. Canberra compound the poor play by giving away a relieving penalty inside the Warriors half.
35 min: We're going upstairs for a potential try to the Warriors!
36 min: TRY
Short exchange of passes creates a hole for Godinet to squeeze through and open his account for the season. Referee was concerned about an obstruction on Learoyd-Lahrs but it was merely a poor read. Maloney from just right of the posts bangs it over easy as you like.
New Zealand Warriors 22-6
37 min: A silly offload from Ta'ai puts Brown under all sorts & he knocks the rolling ball forward. Raiders with the ball 10m out from the Warriors line.
38 min: Manu does brilliantly well to get out of his own in-goal only for Hurrell to spill it the next play.
39 min: Back to back penalties to the Raiders puts the Warriors defence under all sorts of pressure.
40 min: What a frantic finish to the half! Raiders throw it left to right before Berrigan puts a grubber through for McCrone who bounces it just before the dead-ball line. It's half-time!
41 min: Warriors kick off to open the second half.
42 min: It doesn't take the Raiders long to use the win with McCrone launching a big mid-field bomb that completely bamboozles the Warriors down the left. However, Ferguson fails to come up with resulting in a turn over on the Warriors 30m.
44 min: Raiders found themselves deep in attack but a questionably last tackle play from McCrone ends with Tilse having to put an uninspired kick through which is easily claimed by Tuimavave.
45 min: TRY
This was too easy from the Raiders! Buttriss from dummy half throws it inside to Fensom who races through a huge gap and powers his way over underneath the posts. Is this deja vu from the Warriors?
New Zealand Warriors 22-12
50 min: Raiders all over the Warriors at the moment. Making huge ground with each set while keeping the Warriors trapped inside their own half. This wind has really played a big part in today's game.
55 min: Croker makes a break after the Raiders spread it wide inside their own half. Raiders look like scoring for all money before Tupou intercepts the pass just before the line. Goal line drop out Raiders.
56 min: TRY
Raiders once again find success down the left. Robinson dances past Maloney to score a fairly simple try. Game well and truly back on!
New Zealand Warriors 22-18
61 min: Warriors receive six again after the refs. rule that Croker played at Hurrell's pass. Warriors with their best chance of the half inside the Raiders half.
62 min: The chance goes to waste as Mateo offloads the ball straight to a Raider.
63 min: Berrigan's turns Tuimavave inside and out right near his posts and rewards the Raiders with a goal line drop out.
65 min: We're going upstairs for a potential Raiders try!
66 min: TRY
Berrigan kicks it cross-field to the wing of Sandor Earl who claims it above Manu before flicking it back to Ferguson who falls over the line to score!
Canberra Raiders 24-22
68 min: We're going upstairs for another Raiders try!
68 min: TRY
Ferguson gathers a towering mid-field bomb, steps on the outside of the desperate Warriors defenders to extend the Raiders lead.
Canberra Raiders 30-22
70 min: PENALTY GOAL
Warriors are deemed to have stripped the ball 20m out from their own line.
Canberra Raiders 32-22
72 min: TRY
Stop the fight! Robinson claims a great off-load from Papalii who stuck his nose through and scores underneath the sticks.
Canberra Raiders 38-22
75 min: Papalii once again sneaks through on the right fringe but Waddell can't collect the pass. Warriors with the ball just on half-way.
76 min: TRY
This is just too easy for the Raiders. After forcing the Warriors on the back-foot all set McCrone sums the situation perfectly with a pin-point grubber through the line to find Papalii who scores one of the easiest tries he'll score this year.
Canberra Raiders 42-22
80 min: Vatuvei is taken over the sideline to see out a remarkable fight back from the Raiders who scored 36 unanswered points in the second half.

WiMAX numbers up, profits down
LTE's lag causing worries, as well
Posted in Networks, 14th July 2009 21:03 GMT
Tuesday brought a good-news, bad-news pairing to those pushing WiMAX as the next-generation wireless broadband standard.
A report released by the market-watchers at Maravedis notes that WiMAX subscriptions during the first quarter of this year were up 75 per cent year-on-year, and now total 3.5 million worldwide users.
That, quite obviously, is the good news.
On the other hand, the report's Executive Summary (PDF) states in rather bald language that "LTE is gaining momentum and will be the technology selected by most mobile operators worldwide moving forward."
Futhermore, Maravedis' CEO Adlane Fellah said in a statement, in reference to the service's average revenue per user, "Global service revenue growth is tapering off as WiMAX operators experience ARPU stagnation and subscriber growth slow down."
The co-author of the report was even more succinct, saying that "2008 was a difficult year for WiMAX and during the first quarter 2009, the slowdown continued as operators watched their wallets closely in order to survive the downturn."
LTE boosters shouldn't feel overly confident, however. Maravedis also reports that 28 per cent of the operators they surveyed call LTE's "technological delays" a challenge to their more-rapid adoption of that standard, while 24 per cent are worried about interoperability among LTE vendors.
Another Maravedis researcher commented on those concerns, noting that "WiMAX suppliers say that they offer a low cost way to deliver network service most needed now: that waiting for LTE is lost opportunity and overkill of network complexity and cost," adding that "An emerging message from operators is the choice of network technology is less important so long as it serves their purpose."
Although LTE may very well be "selected by most mobile operators worldwide moving forward," WiMAX has the distinct advantage of its mere existence. To those who need wireless broadband today, that may be more important than LTE's promise, however attractive that may be. ®

- Thanks. I knew that was somewhere, but couldn't find it quickly. You are always rescuing me. I appreciate it. ;-) —Dcn. David talk contribs 15:18, December 13, 2005 (CST)
- As far as I can see, the relevant part of the style manual says: "Thus, the preference for OrthodoxWiki will be to use Greek terms where no standard English word is predominant among Anglophonic Orthodox writers". The critical difference between Matins vs Orthros and Presvytera vs Matushka is that Matins is an English word, and is unquestionably predominant. -- Pistevo 03:02, December 14, 2005 (CST)
- Is it? At least in the US (can't speak for y'all in the Global Deep South), Orthros is the preferred term among Byzantine tradition churches (which are in the majority). —Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!) 07:37, December 14, 2005 (CST)
- *greatly surprised*. If Orthros is predominant in North America, then I agree that it's probably best as it is (since most English translations - and most web-surfers - are from there anyway). In my neck of the woods, I'd have to pronounce Orthros with a Greek accent (like, say, Pistevo), because it'd sound like I was using a technical term. -- — by Pιsτévο talk complaints at 16:46, December 14, 2005 (CST)
Using the Google Method -- Orthros vs. Matins
Orthos: 57,500 hits
Mattins: 60,400 hits
Matins: 3,990,000 hits
I think "Matins" wins by a long shot. :)
Frjohnwhiteford 11:20, April 16, 2007 (PDT)
- Indeed. (No doubt your millions of voters there are mostly heretics, however!) However, this is not a spelling issue. This instead falls under the "Do we use Greek or Russian or Arabic or English technical terms"? "Matins" is clearly not favored by a massive amount of Anglophonic Orthodoxy, so the standard we've long used is for the Greek terminologyfor technical and theological terms, since it is original and universal.
- See: OrthodoxWiki:Style Manual#Technical Terminology. —Fr. Andrew talk contribs 14:22, April 16, 2007 (PDT)

President Barack Obama and his supporters say the recovery of the U.S. auto industry would not have been possible without the federal government's loans to rescue Chrysler and General Motors.
Romney was an early opponent of the bailouts. But in an interview with Cleveland's WEWS TV, Channel 5, he said he will "take a lot of credit for the fact that this industry has come back." His reasoning: the two automakers ultimately went through the managed bankruptcy process that the former Massachusetts governor advocated in a 2008 New York Times opinion piece that has since come back to haunt his campaign.
"My own view was that the auto companies needed to go through bankruptcy before government help, and frankly that's finally what the president did," Romney told WEWS.
The Obama campaign responded late Monday through former Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland, a national co-chairman of the president's re-election team. Strickland called Romney's remarks " a new low in dishonesty, even for him."
"At the time the loan was extended, auto industry leaders were saying that they couldn't keep the industry alive without a lifeline from the federal government," Strickland added. "And so, the President did something politically unpopular at the time and he gave them a lifeline to restructure and because of his decision to do so, the industry is prospering and spurring growth across the nation."

Such a yummy pasta dish, the creamy & cheesy sauce sounds excellent!
Bow tie pasta in an Alfredo type sauce is grand indeed!
One of my all time favorite dishes!! I used to eat this more frequently when I didn't need to watch the waistline quite as much, but I've forgotten about this tasty treat!!
Oh Claudia, what a creamy pasta temptation while I'm trying to lose some extra poundage! But I do believe in splurge/reward days and this one fits the bill. I'll take a cream sauce on pasta ANY DAY! I'm printing this recipe right NOW! Ciao amica!

First of all, your sentence does not have a subject.
"There is not between him and her." There cannot function as the subject.
If you meant "This is between him and her." Then this is the subject and him and her are objects of the preposition between.
He and she are the subject forms of these pronouns.
Him and her are the object forms.
"She and he made room on the bus for him and her."

Israeli excuse for not exiting OSLO & Camp David?
Israel has tons of excuses for why the other side is not going along with the Peace Process. Its as if, its a complete surprise to find the other side has declared genocidal war on Jews and Israel! ("We never knew...")
What's never talked about, is why Israel refuses to end Camp David and Oslo.
They could- Under the law and even according to the agreements, very little has not been violated by the other side. But they don't.
Instead we are led to understand that "Israel has no choice".
Obviously, Israel signing the secretly negotiated peace agreements feels YOU don't have a choice. You should not be asked.
The Lubavitcher Rebbe asks on this point of holding secret negotiations: "If its such a great good, so why the secret?" Tell everyone what great good you are negotiating secretly for Israel's Jewish population."

In short, in 100 Words... Israel [the multi-racial, equal democracy], its Jewish returnees to their historic homeland, face genocide campaign [at times "just" ethnic cleansing] by Arab-Muslims since the 1920's. Whether by Arab immigrants, their children - called "Palestinians," or by [apartheid, almost Judenrein] Arab/Muslim forces [exploiters of Arab-Palestinians] for: power, sheer anti-Jewish hatred [exemplified through dehumanization/incitement], or as part of an overall Jihad towards world domination. Motivation: Islamic bigotry, Jihad, Arab racism. The aggressors (Palestinians/Hezbollah) self-made "victims" falsify information/images, define lost battles, casualties resulting from Islamists using civilians (to make humane Israel look bad), as "massacres."

I am about to start my first bottle of Super DMZ, and I was hoping that anyone else that has taken this supplement can provide their results, experience, side effects, etc. Thanks for the help.
Printable View
I am about to start my first bottle of Super DMZ, and I was hoping that anyone else that has taken this supplement can provide their results, experience, side effects, etc. Thanks for the help.
I've used SDMZ2 and 3.
Likes: Strength boost is definite, which in turn means you gonna put on some mass if eating correctly.
Sides: Low Back Pumps and Limp Dick when dosed at 2 caps a day, this at about the 3 weeks in mark, another time I did 2 caps on lift days and 1 cap on off days and didn't get these sides.
Results: You can put on some muscle with this product, no doubt, but to keep it you must follow run by continuing to train hard and eating correctly. Also consider a PCT if you are not on HRT.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience. I was wondering about dosage of Super DMZ on non-workout days, which for me will be just Sunday's. I will give the 1 pill on non-lifting days a try, as I do not want to experience these side effects. I have never experienced low back pumps before, so hopefully the discomfort isn't terrible.
As far as the PCT, I was considering Arime PCT Stage 5 or Ultra Male Rx for PCT, and was curious about adding an estrogen blocker such as NoEstrogen or E Control RX.
Well everyone is different as to how it will treat them. I would just go in full bore at 2 caps a day and if you get the sides then tone it back. You will feel the full effects of the product if you use at the recommended dosage. Some have even used 3 caps a day or more but I wouldn't recommend going over two. As far as PCT, I am no expert on that as I did not use any anabolics until I was on HRT so I have never PCTed. Hopefully a rep or experienced board member will chime in for ya about that.
Okay, so you used one bottle of Super DMZ but did not use any PCT supplements due to the fact that you were on HRT? Simply put, I do not want to experience "man boobs" or any testicular issues after I complete my cycle of Super DMZ.
Correct. Man boobs I doubt will happen while on cycle because it does not aromatize (convert to estrogen), afterwards however you want to keep estrogen under control in case of a rebound (E Control or an Aromatase Inhibitor). Testicular issues I don't know, possible I suppose, as it will suppress your natty test production. I doubt you will have much if any in a one month cycle. The testicular thing I would feel this better answered by a rep or someone with more experience though because I can't say for sure. Steroids come with risks, gather as much info as you can before you take anything so you are prepared to face the possible sides. Definitely continue your research and questioning if you're concerned.
Once again, I thank you for your insight. I do plan on just experimenting with one cycle of the Super DMZ, see what results it gives, etc. I was thinking that perhaps a good testosterone booster after completing the Super DMZ cycle would be sufficient, but I definitely want to be safe as to avoid side effects. I read somewhere to take Milk Thistle to lessen the effects Super DMZ has on the liver, and take Aspirin to keep the blood pressure under control.

The science fair allows SHS students to participate in the projects that are judged by professional scientists in the Stuttgart area
The students at Stuttgart High School have something else to look forward to in December — the annual science fair sponsored by teachers Dr. Julia Gibbons and Kathy Prislovsky.
"This event is for AP and Pre-AP classes," Prislovsky said. "The event is the highlight of the end of the first semester."
The science fair allows SHS students to participate in the projects that are judged by professional scientists in the Stuttgart area, Prislovsky said.
"The students always have fun with the projects and the experiments," Prislovsky said.
Gibbons said research on the science fair projects are conducted by an individual or as a team, then they test the hypothesis, gather data and reach a conclusion as a result of their data.
"They then present it in a display form to be judged and observed," Prislovsky said. "At the end of the week, we have the parents come and see the students' work."
SHS has had two students receive scholarships at the regional science fair in Pine Bluff over the last two years, Prislovsky said.
This year's SHS Science Fair winners were:
Senior Division:
Behavioral Science — First place, Triniti Haynes and Tyshabrea Bell; Second place, Sydney Nash and Jaelynn Maddox; Third place, Zack McCarley, Colby Mack and Triston Brownell; Physics — First place, Jon Curtis; Second place, Bobby Keller and Cameron Boyd; Third place, Allison Sites; Anatomy/Physiology — First place, Danielle Robinson; Second place,Kimberlee Nunez; Third place, Jack Morgan; Math/Computer Scince — First place, Lauren Barnett and Taylor Pierce; Second place, Dontrell Brown; Microbiology — First place, Christian Leus; Second place, Corbin Buerkle; Third place, Alek Fortner; Zoology — First place, Gunnar Stone and Reed McPherson; Second place, Spencer Donaldson; Third place, Weston Wilks and Jacob Clawitter; Chemistry — First place, Abbey Maynard; Second place, Jenny Lorince and Emaly Newkirk; Third place, Chandler George; Environmental Science — First place, Natalie Carr; Second place; Krystal Rodgers; Biology — First place, Hannah Murry; Second place, Alex Jackson and Markayla Wyatt; Third place, Cassidy George; Consumer Chemistry — First place, Madison Simpson; Second place, Nathan Parker and Haley Elmore; Third place, Taylor Borchert; Botany — First place, Britni Weaver; Second place: Raydus Burton; Third place: Jordan Hudson.
Junior Division
Botany: First place, Logan Connally and Micah Mitchell; Second place: Kimberly Oliver; Chemistry — First place, Hannah Oliver and Matthew Lin; Secondplace, Chandler Konecny; Third place, Lexus Hobbs; Consumer Chemistry — First place, Loren Bohanan; Second place, Spencer Simpson; Third place, Cori Keller and Riley Smith; Microbiology — First place, Robin Galloway; Second place: Charlsi Konecny; Third place, Malik Brasfield; Physics: First place, Madison Summers; Second place, Blake Marks; Third place, Taylor Fortenberry and Ryan Ldeder; Zoology — First place, Lance Oltmann; Second place, Trevor Kewkirk; Third place, Brooke Yelvington and Erin Siems.
"The overall winner in the Senior Division was Christian Leus and Robin Galloway was the overall winner in the Junior Division," Prislovsky said.
In the spring, the regional science fair will be held in Pine Bluff.

Quickutz has apparently settled the lawsuit filed against it by supplier Bai-Win in July alleging unpaid bills and fraud. The lawsuit had alleged Quickutz owed $700,000 in unpaid bills to Bai-Win, which had been supplying Quickutz since 2006.
According to court filings in August, the companies were engaged at the time in settlement talks, and Quickutz's deadline to respond to the lawsuit was extended by the court until August 25th at the request of both companies to provide more time for the negotiations.
On September 22nd, Bai-Win and Quickutz filed a joint motion with the court requesting the dismissal of the case. The dismissal was granted the same day by U.S. District Court Judge Clark Waddoups, with each company ordered to pay their own court and attorney costs.
No terms of a settlement were disclosed in court filings.

Even The Voice website commented after this week's show, "That was a good dress rehearsal. When's the live show?" after two technical hitches, a F-bomb on live television and a falling out between the judges all marred this week's programme, much to the delight of viewers. This might be just what the BBC needs for higher ratings, now the BGT juggernaut has departed into the sunset.
After Jessie's microphone failed during her live performance and Becky Hill even dropped the F-bomb over audio problems, two of the judges fell out properly this week for the first time since the series began, with Will commenting that he didn't think members of Danny's team were trying hard enough.
Following David Julien's performance of Maroon 5's She Will Be Loved, an obviously bored Will could hardly summon the energy to say, "It was cool."
Prompted by Holly Willoughby for a bit more, he decided to be frank, "This is a real critical part of the whole show, two of Danny's team are going to leave, and the way you guys are going about picking songs, you're not taking it as seriously as it is.
"The arrangement and how you guys are performing is not to the level that it needs to be at for something this important." Ouch!
Danny, unsurprisingly took offence, "Your team were better? No…."
"No fighting allowed," said big, gentle, purring Tom.
And Jessie tried to intervene too, saying it wasn't about the different teams, but trying to provide constructive criticism for each artist, but Danny and Will were happy to carry on.
"How are you guys going about preparing?" Will asked Danny.
"We collaborate…" replied Danny, ready for a proper fisticuffs until they were cut off. I think we can expect a bit more of this before the series finishes.

After last week's emotional eliminations of 50% of Sir Tom and Will's offerings, leaving favourites Jaz Ellington and Ruth Brown at the top of the leader board, it was up to Jessie and Danny to prove that their choices can match up.
A technical hitch might have put Jessie J off her game for the team performance of We Are Young, but it didn't come anywhere near last week's delights of Sir Tom and Will.i.am.
Later in the show, Danny got together with his bunch for a lower-energy but far more dramatic performance of Somebody That I Used To Know, which highlighted David Julien and Bo Bruce's talents.
And here's the best of the rest – some choice moments from this week's performances…
Team Jessie
We heard about Cassius Henry's tendency to tense up during rehearsals, but he seemed relaxed enough singing Adele's Turning Tables while lounging over the piano. Which was on a turning platform, geddit? I don't think he'll be going much further in the competition, but at least he got to be the envy of all male viewers for a few Holly-hugging moments.
Vince Kidd dug for his reggae rhythms to Whitney Houston's My Love Is Your Love – no problems with "pitchy", but the strong arrangement threatened to drown his vocals. Sir Tom decided his range was impressive, Danny was worried about the choice of song, and Will commented on it the only way he knows how… with a text commenting on Vince being "a bomb".
Becky Hill had the previous trauma this week of putting her mentor Jessie on her back during rehearsals (you can WATCH this mishap here), and then some technical hitches with the mike meant she even dropped the F-bomb on live telly. But she somehow recovered to sing Seven Nation Army by the White Stripes. What she lacked in hitting every right note, she made up for in attitude and chutzpah, and even Sir Tom was "doing his growl face" according to Jessie.
Toni Warne poured her heart into Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word, and it worked (as did the doves), bringing all four judges to their feet.
Team Danny
Max Milner got his guitar back on for his continuing impression of a travelling minstrel, with an unimaginative interpretation of KT Tunstall's Black Horse and a Cherry Tree. Will thought it a bad choice of song, while Jessie conceded it was too similar to the original.
Bo Bruce continued to split the atom between The Cranberries' Dolores and Lonely Goat Herd to ethereal effect, singing Rihanna's Love The Way You Lie.
Aleks Josh, the new Michael Buble according to Will.i.am, has been getting used to lots of female attention, and showed an even more relaxed, smooth style than previously, on Jack Johnson's Better Together, a song he fought to sing. It paid off. It was like the soundtrack to a relaxed summer picnic, although Will announced he was ready for more. And we had our first argument of the night, with Jessie backing him up – "when's it going to get more exciting?"
David Julien was sounding more like Tracey Chapman than ever, on Maroon 5's She Will Be Loved, but his impression of the American chanteuse meant he didn't sound like he was trying to impersonate Adam Levine – but it obviously wasn't enough for Will.
This week's contestants in action... any of these on cue to be The Voice?

I had breakfast with U.S. Undersecretary for Arms Control and International Security Ellen Tauscher earlier this week and the former East Bay congresswoman shared the compelling and inspiring story of her remarkable triumph over esophageal cancer.
I didn't have space in the piece but I shared with Ellen that morning about how her experience had already helped me in a very personal way.
Last March, the Washington Post wrote a lovely story about her recovery and as I read through the text, I keyed in on Ellen's description of the early symptoms: Trouble swallowing bulky foods, a sensation of something blocking her esophagus.
My husband had been experiencing the very same symptoms for months. He had recently suffered a painful episode while eating a salad at a restaurant.
I showed him the news story and he made an appointment.
The initial examination revealed a potential problem and his doctor scheduled an endoscopy. Fortunately, the scope found a highly treatable inflammation and not cancer.
But for all we knew at the time, the symptoms could have been associated with a far more serious health problem. And early detection is a good thing when it comes to the successful treatment of cancer.
So, take Ellen's advice: Even if you think all you need is another roll of Tums, go see your doctor. Do it for the people who love you.

Entertainment is not a one-size-fits-all world. We want you to be able to choose the hardware that makes sense for you, so we are working with multiple partners to bring a variety of Steam gaming machines to market during 2014, all of them running SteamOS.
Where Sony and Microsoft follow the iOS model for consoles, Valve is aiming for the Android model, including Valve's own line of 'Nexus' devices. As Valves notes, no restrictions - you can change the hardware, software, and install any operating system you want. The right approach, obviously.
The cooperation between Valve and NVIDIA is quite close, as NVIDIA details on its blog:
Engineers from Valve and NVIDIA have spent a lot of time collaborating on a common goal for SteamOS: to deliver an open-platform gaming experience with superior performance and uncompromising visuals directly on the big screen.
NVIDIA engineers embedded at Valve collaborated on improving driver performance for OpenGL; optimizing performance on NVIDIA GPUs; and helping to port Valve's award-winning content library to SteamOS; and tuning SteamOS to lower latency, or lag, between the controller and onscreen action.
This is going to be big. After being defeated in mobile, it seems Microsoft is facing another frontal assault on another one of its strongholds: gaming, whether it be Windows or Xbox.

Hmmm...I haven't had the problems you're experiencing. I have a Toshiba Qosmio X870 which has a GTX 670M Optimus GPU paired with an Intel HD4000 and it works great. One thing I did notice was that some 3D intensive programs still wanted to use the HD4000 instead of the 670M. So under the Nvidia control panel I just set things up so that the 670M does all the work. Uses more power but I'm more concerned with performance than with power savings.

I had played with an original Kindle and decided that I didn't need a beta-quality device. I preordered a Kindle 2 the day they were announced, and I preordered a Kindle DX yesterday.
Let me see if I can clear up some misconceptions about the Kindle.
DRM: You can only buy DRM locked books from Amazon (there's a hack for other DRM'ed books but I've never bothered trying it.). However, you can ALSO buy or download NON-DRM books from anywhere: Gutenberg, Fictionwise, Webscriptions are a few that I've tried. The catch is that Kindle 2 wants everything in .mobi format... but to reiterate, NON-DRM .mobi files work just fine and are not locked to the device or to Amazon!
Files can be copied to the Kindle 2 using a plain old ordinary USB cable (which is also how it's recharged). You can also email files to an email address Amazon assigns to your Kindle, and Amazon then charges you a flat $0.10 for the wireless file transfer.
The pain in the neck bit is converting things into .mobi format. Amazon offers free conversion via an email service (with optional $0.10 delivery directly to your Kindle) which allegedly converts html, pdf, and txt... but I've had fairly bad luck with it. There's also a free Windows .mobi creator/converter that works pretty well, but, well, only works on Windows! And even when the conversion DOES work, it seems that you always lose a certain amount of formatting.
For reading novels or other plain-text books, the Kindle 2 is really quite wonderful. The battery lasts practically forever, so I can read all day without thinking about whether or not it needs to be charged. And the screen really is VERY much easier on the eyes than an LCD screen. You'll really have to use one for a day to understand the difference. And buying a new book from Amazon is really just too easy. You can search the Amazon Kindle store, find a book, download a sample, and then buy the whole book if you want it, all with a couple button clicks... and because it has the wireless service built-in, it works practically everywhere.
There's also an experimental web browser, which, at least at the moment, is free, and can be pointed at arbitrary websites. It's just not fast enough for random surfing, and the formatting is sometimes kind of iffy... it definitely deserves to be called experimental! But I've used it successfully with long Wikipedia pages, and it works quite well for that. As near as I can tell, though, you can't save pages for later review or anything like that.
The thing the Kindle 2 isn't very good at is technical stuff. Code listings in computer books get broken in strange places, making things difficult to read. This can be reduced, to some degree, by setting the font size really, really small... but this makes things harder to read, especially if you happen to be middle aged...
The Kindle DX stands a good chance of being wonderful. Copy PDF files to it over USB... and read them. Or email them to the Kindle for a dime. (The usefulness of this shouldn't be underestimated, because usually I'm at work and my Kindle is at home. And at work, we've already started talking about getting Kindles for the programming team. Email a pdf file to one of our internal mailing lists, and have it pushed out to all the team members automatically? An interesting possibility.)
Is it expensive. Duh! Of course it's expensive! For me, the benefits make it worthwhile, because I read a LOT of pdf files, and being able to read them more comfortably is a big win for me. If you can't handle the sticker shock, just wait a couple of years. I'll pay extra to get started now.
"But I can just read them on a netbook and it's cheaper?" No, sorry, no comparison... I *have* a netbook, and it's an apples-and-oranges comparison. If I'm going to spend several hours reading, the netbook is heavier, more cumbersome, and has an inferior screen. Yes, it's cheaper... but I'm paying for the comfort and convenience.
"It needs an SD card slot!" Well, I think so too. Sadly, the current book-management software in the Kindle isn't great, and I don't think I'd want to try to manage thousands of books on my Kindle. The built-in storage (2gig for Kindle 2, 4gig for Kindle DX) is probably sufficient for now. The Kindle 3 really needs better software... and an SD card slot!
I haven't tried any of the magazine or newspaper subscriptions Amazon offers, but have been considering it. I just have too much other stuff to read. Also, some of the stuff I want to subscribe to isn't available on the Kindle. Yet.
And a word on Amazon book prices: to be blunt, many of them are too freaking expensive! But that's not really a problem for me, as I've only bought a few books from Amazon, and don't expect to buy a lot. I just don't like buying DRM locked stuff. Ever.
So, to sum up, I have high hopes for the Kindle DX. Assuming the native PDF renderer works well, I think I'll be very happy with it.
For those of you who hate the Kindle: um, you might want to try one for a while. It's not perfect; I think we're still in the early stages of the true e-book era. But it's quite a lot better than some of you seem to think it is!

Anyone who has seen Almost Famous knows that it does happen that — sometimes — music journalists get to travel around with rock bands and track their every move. And that's exactly what has happened to former Dallas Voice staff writer Rich Lopez.
On Tuesday, Lopez flew from Dallas to Los Angeles to begin the first leg on a tour that will, quite literally, take him around the world in a week, flying alongside Rihanna as she promotes her new album, Unapologetic, out Monday. He'll be blogging about the tour for the online website Queerty.com.
Just how far around the world? Well, from Dallas to L.A., Lopez then goes to Mexico City, Toronto, Stockholm, Berlin, Paris and London, before headed back to the U.S. for a final concert in New York City … then, presumably, back to Dallas — and all in time for Thanksgiving next week.
Lopez touched down in Mexico City just three hours ago, so it's still quite new to him. But if we know Rich — and after all these years, trust us, we do — he's both a nervous wreck and entirely exhilarated by the experience. The last trip I sent Rich on for the paper was to Branson, Mo. I guess he's moved up in the world.
We even have a name for his adventure: Almost Gaymous.
Good luck, Rich!

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Instead of heralding the onset of a peaceful evening, when the sirens sounded, his guests panicked and the children instinctively started looking for a bomb shelter. To them, the sirens sounded eerily like the ones that warned of incoming rockets during the war.
Now, the Sabbath in Jerusalem is welcomed with the traditional song Shalom Alechem (peace be unto you) rather than sirens.

Two special ladies were recognized at a recent Douglass City Council meeting.
Two special ladies were recognized at a recent Douglass City Council meeting.
Jenni L. O'Crowley and Jeanie Clay as the 2012 Volunteers of the Year. They were nominated by community members and recognized for freely giving their time, effort and talents for a variety of causes and organizations in the Douglass community.
At the Council meeting, both received award plaques to recognize their volunteer efforts in 2012..
Jenni O'Crowley organized several benefits for Douglass families who had experienced tragedies. Having lost a cousin and close friend in car accidents, she makes certain they are remembered and honored in a positive way.
She has also been instrumental in helping start scholarships.
O'Crowley works at the Douglass Middle School and has a great influence on the students.
She loves her town and is always eager to promote businesses in Douglass.
She started Girls Day Out two years ago and the event will be held again in April. Money raised goes to scholarship funds to help students get the opportunity to go to college. There is a lot of work that goes into getting vendors to participate, setting dates and deciding which the scholarship fund to help.
In addition to all of her volunteer work, she manages to be a wife, mother, and a full time employee.
The other Volunteer of the Year is Jeanie Clay, one of those rare people who is always finding ways to give to others.
She is currently a volunteer at the Douglass Museum, President of the Douglass Public Library Board of Trustees, treasurer for the PEO, member and worker of the Douglass Methodist Church and UMW. When she retired after many years as an elementary teacher in the Douglass Public Schools, she immediately volunteered for service at the library as the Story Hour teacher.

I am not sure about the obsession here with filling a bag right up. Shall I bag that? would probably be enough, though Australian speakers may be able to make more natural suggestions, but I expect someone doing the bagging to know how much a bag can take. If you put the bag into a second bag to make it stronger, we say double the bag.

NEW YORK -- This Saturday marks one month since Occupy Wall Street protesters set-up camp at Zuccotti Park in Lower Manhattan. Since then the demonstrations have spread to dozens of cities across the country. This weekend, a global day of protests is planned, and organizers say they expect events to be held in more than 800 cities in 71 countries.
Clearly, the movement appears to be growing. Now we have some new information about how the rest of the country views what's happening in Zuccotti Park and beyond.
From an NBC News/Wall Street Journal Poll released Wednesday:
- 37% of the country tends to support the movement; 18% oppose; 25% have no opinion. That's more than those who say they support the Tea Party -- just 26% say they support it, while 64% say they do not.
- The movement is most popular in the Northeast, where people tend to support it 48%-15%. It is least popular in the South where 30% support, 22% oppose.
- Perhaps counter-intuitively, the movement has its highest support among the highest income earners, (those making more than $75,000 year): 40% support, 24% oppose. Among the poorest, however, it is also popular (less than 30K year): 35% support, 11% oppose.
- Among ethnic groups, the protests are popular among African-Americans, 41% support, 7% oppose; among Hispanics 35% support, 15 oppose; among Whites 37% support, 18% oppose.
- Among political parties, unsurprisingly, the movement is most popular among Democrats (56%-6%), and least popular among Republicans, where a plurality do not support 17%-34%. Independents support 34%-17%.
Since the demonstrations started there have also been nagging questions about what protesters believe in, and what they want. Early last week New York Magazine conducted an informal survey of 100 protesters at Zuccotti Park to gauge their views on everything from President Obama to capitalism. A few snippets are below.
What do you think of Obama?
- I believed in him, and he let me down: 40
- He's doing great: 1
- I never believed in him: 27
- He's doing the best he can: 22
Did you vote in the 2010 midterm elections?
- Yes: 39
- No: 55
- No, but only because I wasn't 18:
Rank yourself on the following Scale of Liberalism:
- Not liberal at all: 6
- Liberal but fairly mainstream (i.e., Barack Obama): 3
- Strongly liberal (i.e., Paul Krugman): 12
- Fed up with Democrats, believe country needs overhaul (i.e., Ralph Nader): 41
- Convinced the U.S. government is no better than, say, Al Qaeda (i.e., Noam Chomsky): 34
For more from the field on Occupy Wall Street, check out msnbc.com's Field Notes blog.
*** UPDATE *** We checked to see how the supporters and opponents of Occupy Wall Street broke down in their approval or disapproval of President Obama.
Those who tend to support the protesters, said they approved of the president's job 61%-35%.
Those who tend to oppose the protesters, did not approve of the president's job by an 11%-88%
Those with no opinion were 42%-49%.
The margin of error on this question is +/-3.55%.

Read comments on this car
Last updated Nov 3, 2007
This was my second car. I had moved on from my '87 Thunderbird and was looking for something a little more sporty. My dad picked this up cheap, and I didn't really want it until I drove it once. Boy, did I ever change my mind quick! I think some of my best teenage memories were had in my old silver Lincoln. I was seventeen, and I have to wonder how I didn't kill myself.
This car was equipped with a 5.0 H.O. engine like the ones in the Mustangs. I'm not joking when I say that it was extremely fast, and It handled like a dream. It was my first experience with leather seats, which, despite the scalded legs in the summer, I decided I loved. It had a THUMPING stereo system, which I blasted every chance I got. (The neighbors didn't like me very much. My mom joked that you could hear me coming a mile away.) It had a sunroof that I insisted on opening even when it was freezing out.... My theory was thats what the heater was for.
The only thind I didn't like about it was it had that airbag suspension, which is known to be problematic in these Lincolns. Every time I shut the car off, the back end would settle down over the tires within an hour.

Nottingham's Bloggers
I'm not sure how the city of Nottingham compares creatively in the sphere of blog writing with other similar cities. Save for Edinburgh perhaps, I haven't the time to scour contemporary towns and their respective blogs and observe how they stack up against the output from The Lace City. I have a hunch though that Nottingham is pretty well served by it's blogging and writing talent generally.
The Tears of a Clown is not necessarily a 'Nottingham Blog' by any means. I tend to just write about the subjects that interest or amuse me and the experiences I have. Nevertheless any visitor browsing through this site will come across plenty of Nottinghamshire content and I like to maintain the site's partly local identity. In doing this I often browse around to see what my fellow Nottingham based bloggers are saying and am seldom disappointed in what I come across.
I initiated this blog site after formerly running my own regular website and posting articles on there. In June 2007 I attended a lecture at the Lowdham Book Festival given by Mike Atkinson. What I heard that day in a most entertaining and hugely informative talk by Mike, prompted me to initiate The Tears of a Clown. It's only fitting then that I begin by linking to his own blog, troubled diva.
troubled diva
'Without a doubt, drivel is Mike's forte'
Don't be fooled by the tag line, Mike Atkinson's piece of the Web has pretty much all the things you might enjoy about a blog experience. Great content, quality writing, humour and information. Although going through a hiatus or two due to professional writing duties, it remains a vibrant and fun read, particularly if you enjoy reading about music. Features including the highlighting of other interesting articles from around the Net, Twitter and a well-populated comments section keep up the interest.
Nottingham Graffiti
'News, views and musings from the great city'
I haven't been reading Alan-a-dale's blog for too long but what I see I like a lot. Lot's of local content expressed in an individual and very readable and personable style.
Canuckistani in Limey Land
'Fun, frivolity and assorted moaning about England'
Brookes, Alberta's Rob Cutforth who bills himself as 'A Canadian in New Basford' is one of my favourite bloggers and whilst not hugely prolific his articles are always worth the wait. Rob no longer lives in Nottingham having moved to Manchester but posts excellent and hilarious items on the superb LeftLion website, and hard copy newspaper, here in Nottingham. Continue reading

The Santa Clara Sporting 94 Boys Team finished the 2012 College Surf Cup as Finalists in the elite U18 Super Group. The Sporting 94s traveled to San Diego last weekend with high expecatations after going undefeated in the super competitive NorCal National Premier League, and qualifying for the Far West Regional League Fall League Playoffs. The U18 Super Group was filled with powerhouse teams like: Albion - twice the US National Finalists, PAC Tigres - Region IV Champions, SC Del Sol - Arizona State Champs, Dallas Texans, Placer United, Merced Atlas - US Club National Champions, and the Santa Clara Sporting 94s - NorCal Regional Champs and State Cup Chanmps.
Santa Clara kicked-off their first bracket game with a huge match against Sacramento United, a very dangerous team ranked #1 in NorCal. Sacramento scored first but Sporting tied the game 1-1 before halftime. Then Santa Clara came-out after halftime and dominated play scoring 2 goals in the second half to stun Sac United with a convincing 3-1 victory. That sent a message to the other U18 teams that Sporting was on form at Surf Cup.
Sporting drew the Dallas Texans in their second bracket game, and had to fight the #4 ranked team from Texas. The game drew another crowd of college coaches, and the highly competitive game went back-and-forth with attacks and counter-attacks. Then Sporting broke the deadlock when David Escobar drove a hard low line drive pass across the Dallas goal, and before the Texan keeper could grab the ball, Migi Castillo flew in and flicked the ball into the back of the Dallas goal. The second half was a battle of attacking and counter- attacking and it looked like Santa Clara would win their second bracket game, but Dallas was able to sneak in a last minute goal to tie the game 1-1.
That left Santa Clara and Dallas tied on points after the first day, and the Texans had a slight one goal lead in the goal differential category which would serve as the tie breaker if the teams finished bracket play on Sunday tied after three games. The Sporting 94s had to go out on Sunday morning and defeat the Real Salt Lake team with three goals and keep a clean sheet with no goals in their net.
The Sporting 94s came out on fire and scored two goals in the first half, then scored another pair of goals in the second half to beat Real Salt Lake 4-0. Across the field, the Dallas Texans and Sacramento United teams battled each other with the Texans coming-out on top 2-1 with yet another late game goal. But Santa Clara clinched the bracket with their 4-0 win over Real Salt Lake.
The Semi-finals were set-up as a NorCal match-up between Santa Clara and Diablo FC, and a SoCal match-up between the CZ Elite and Union Independiente teams.
Santa Clara won their Semi-final match over Diablo FC with an incredible goal by Ivan Ramirez late in the second half.
The win set-up a NorCal vs. SoCal battle in the Championship betwen Santa Clara and CZ Elite from Carlsbad. CZ Elite scored in the first five minutes of the Finals when a pass or shot deflected off a crowd of players into the Sporting goal. It was early in the game and Santa Clara was confident they could find an equalizer goal, then work on a game winning goal, but the CZ Elite Team packed their goal box and decided to ride-out all the attacks from Santa Clara to try and win the game. Sporting spent the entire second half shooting on the SoCal team, dominating posession and moving the ball back-and-forth trying to breakdown the CZ Elite defense, but ran out of time and finished as Finalists.
The team is led by Mike Gracyzk, who serves as a Stanford Mens Soccer Assistant Coach, and Conner Mitcell - a recent Santa Clara Broncos soccer standout. The team is now off playing high school soccer, then will return in the spring to compete in the Cal-North and NorCal State Cup Tournaments, the NorCal NPL, and hope to compete at the Dallas Cup and Far West Regionals in Hawaii before graduting and heading off to college.

C++ Kohonen Neural Network Library
Kohonen neural network library is a set of classes and functions for design, train and use Kohonen network (self organizing map).
Kohonen neural networks are used in data mining process and for knowledge discovery in databases. As all neural networks it has to be trained using training data. The Kohonen neural network library is a set of classes and functions to design, train and calculates results from Kohonen neural network known as self organizing map. The library is written in modern C++, so it is highly configurable and extendable. There is defined container for neurons. Also there are available topologies of the network, which are important in training process. Neurons could be constructed by the parameterization of the template classes. Then network could be created. Next training algorithm could be created from some parts, as parameterization of template functors. Example file is included to the library, which could show user how to construct all parts and get proper result - trained and ready to work Kohonen network. In the library there are ready to use WTA and WTM training algorithms.
Library requirements:
Description of demo:
Demo of this library try to read text file with data. File format should be that fields are separated by the tab or space character. And every record it is one line of data. As default network contains 5 rows by 5 columns matrix, so there are 25 neurons. When program is running than initial weights are generated, after that different kinds of learning procedures are used to prepare results. Results are printed into the standard output. The results are trained weights. If there is 5x5 neurons results are stored in the sequences of the weights by 25 weights. Weights can be printed with respect to the number of them in one sequence.

the Brewers bullpen is TERRIBLE. Get Gallardo out of there and we'll get a couple on the board.
