Whatever your business or activity on the web, having the right domain name can make all the difference between success and obscurity.
For the past 20 years, everyone and their dog has wanted a <dot> COM extension. All the best names have been taken and end users have struggled to find a suitable alternative. Result: we get millions of long, convoluted, silly or meaningless names clogging up the internet arteries and doing no good to anyone.
Finally, things are changing. Dot com no longer rules the roost. Hundreds of new extensions are coming on stream, opening up the possibility of finding a really suitable name to fit your purpose.
We've collared a few you might find appealing. Move on to the Domains List to see what's available.
Here's a bonus. Owing to retirement (I'll be 70 this year), my entire UK company and portfolio is up for sale. You'll find details on the listing for manyagem.com (registered 1998). If you can't contain your excitement at the prospect of buying the whole package in one fell swoop, please get in touch. Sometimes, it's better to talk.

Friends, neighbors, and Super Fans everywhere this is Episode 11: The one with Condiments
First, Wes explains the battle him and his neighbor are having with a bird. Apparently there is a bird that is purposely relieving itself on their cars. We have a couple of ideas to get rid of the bird none of which animal lovers will like.
Well, the baseball season is finally here, and the Super Fans could not be more excited. We may only be 5 games in, but we are going to talk about teams that are exceeding and disappointing us right now. Are the Pirates really undefeated? Are the Dodgers in trouble? We also talk about how our fantasy teams are doing.
Next, we discuss this weeks sports headlines. Villanova pulled it out and cut down the net. How dare Michigan take out Sister Jean? Also, I have permanently changed Loyola-Chicago's mascot to the Sister Jeans. It's The Masters week. Where will Tiger finish? Will he make the cut? It should be an interesting tournament.
Finally we debate the condiments that are must haves and the condiments that should be banned. This did get somewhat heated, and Wes and I do disagree on a few of condiments that were brought up. Mustard is a perfectly acceptable condiment and I stand by my decision to put it in the top 3.
This is our show. Thanks for listening!

SDC presented a new double deck trailer
At the 2012 Commercial Vehicle Show held in UK, SDC Trailers presented its first 15.65m double deck trailer. The new trailer is 4.52 high and weights 10,995 kg. For maximum practicality the trailer features four independent load ratchet bays that can be moved vertically by forklift.
The trailer's chassis was tapered by 360 mm thus offering the 30 degree wheel turn required to achieve 44 tones GVW (gross vehicle weight) at 15.65 m. Until now the company has taken more than 100 orders for longer trailers, with the 15.65m variant in demand.
Paul Bratton, SDC director said "Operators want the space to load an extra four pallets. The split between self-steer rear axle and command rear-steer axle is 60-40. Ordering command rear-steer axles is an extra £4,000 straightaway, and those ordering it tend to be operators who have older yards who can't get the trailer straight to activate the locking pin for self-steer."

Sendatsu is a hunted man. His people, even his own father, want him dead. Cast out of his home, he finds himself in a strange new land, desperate to find a way to return to his children.
Alone in the land of Vales, Sendatsu is forced to rely on his talents as a fighter to survive. His skills are welcomed by two fugitives - Huw and Rhiannon - who are desperate to alert the peaceful people of the Vales of an impending invasion. When no one will believe them, Sendatsu becomes the wildcard in a fight for freedom.
Three centuries of lies and deceit are about to burst into bloody life around Sendatsu - when the last thing he wants is to be a hero.

Dead Island launched back in 2011 and we thought it was pretty good. Our review compared it to Fallout 3 but with zombies. While still good, Dead Island Riptide was more of the same, with some graphics and performances issues.
In related Dead Island news, Dead Island 2 is still in development. It was delayed into 2016 and went through a developer change shortly after the delay. Dead Island 2 does not have a specific release date at this time.

***** Announcement *****
We have received many complaints about a group calling themselves 'Hong Kong Urban Sketchers' (HKUS) on Facebook and Meetup.
Several foreign USk sketchers have also informed us that they could not reach us because they messaged this group, mistaking it for ours.
We've given 'Hong Kong Urban Sketchers' the benefit of doubt and sent a few friendly messages to the group's host, letting her know we are the official HK affiliate of the globally recognized Urban Sketchers group. Her use of the name 'Urban Sketchers' is obviously confusing to all, and we even suggested other (great) names she could use. We also invited her and her members to participate in our most recent sketchcrawl so we might get to know one another. (No one showed up.)
We would like to inform everyone that the name 'Urban Sketchers' can only be used with prior approval by the official Urban Sketchers group and would like to make the following statement:
1. We welcome collaboration with all groups that promote the noble art of sketching and its vibrant community. (But do be more original with your name and don't ride the coattails of others)
2. Hong Kong Urban Sketchers (HKUS) is completely unrelated to Urban Sketchers Hong Kong (USkHK).
3. We sincerely hope that HKUS will remove the name 'Urban Sketchers' to avoid further confusion.
Board of Directors of
Urban Sketchers Hong Kong

Community News: Distill Opens Second Location in Southern Highlands
Residents in the south can enjoy the fun of the popular Summerlin hangout Distill in their very own neighborhood when it opens its second location on Saturday, July 19 in Southern Highlands. Guests of Distill will be treated to the same fun atmosphere, house-made cocktails, handcrafted food and VIP gaming club that makes Distill a popular local hangout and the perfect place to get together with old friends or meet new ones. A 'Home Away from Home,' the new Distill location will be located at 4830 W. Pyle Ave. in the popular Southern Highlands area, off of Decatur Blvd., just south of Silverado Ranch Blvd.
The new Distill location in Southern Highlands is the latest creation from the owners of Remedy's Tavern and Elixir, and the third addition to their popular restaurant portfolio in the last year alone. The successful expansion is due the philosophy of winning over guests with modern, yet intimate atmospheres; friendly and knowledgeable staff members on hand 24 hours a day, seven days a week; comfortably priced artisan cocktails and delicious culinary twists on classic tavern fare. The Southern Highlands location will also boast a non-smoking dining area open to diners of all ages.
Guests will be able to choose from a variety of specialty cocktails including house-infused coffee whiskey and orange cinnamon whiskey; the Distiller's Delight with Buellit Whiskey, Cointreau, fresh lemon, Sprite and orange bitters; or the Distilled Margarita with Casa Noble Blanco Tequila shaken with agave nectar and fresh lemon and lime. Distill also features an extensive wine list and a variety of imported or domestic draught or bottled beer. Patrons can also satisfy any craving with a classic, fresh menu available 24 hours a day including house-made Avocado Eggrolls and Mashed Potato Bites; fresh burgers and wraps, including vegetarian options; "Not Round Pizzas" including calzones and strombolis; and classic dishes like Beef Tenderloin Tips and Roasted Bourbon Barbeque Chicken. With two Happy Hour food and drink specials a day from 3 p.m. – 6 p.m. and 3 a.m. – 6 a.m., Distill will hit the spot with prices designed for total enjoyment.
For the gaming aficionados, Distill will be home to 15 brand-new 20" LCD gaming machines carrying more than 55 poker, blackjack, slot and keno games providing the perfect place to kick back and play. By joining the VIP Gaming Club, players will enjoy slot promotions, exclusive parties, scratch cards and $10,000 lotto bucks every hour.
If catching all the action of the most popular sports teams while sitting in a cozy king-size chair is a necessity, Distill will be the neighborhood's 'front-row' destination and with 18 high-definition televisions. If chalking up the cues and racking up for a game of nine-ball, striking down some pins or "hitting the links" are top priorities Distill will feature two pool tables, Silver Strike Bowling and Golden Tee Golf.
Similar to the Summerlin location, Distill will feature a state-of-the-art juke box with access to thousands of songs that is easily accessed through smart phones to supply the soundtrack to any occasion. Scheduled events, promotions and specials will delight all Distill patrons.
Both Distill locations are part the new frequent dining loyalty program, RED Loyalty, joining sister properties Remedy's Tavern and Elixir – a Local Lounge. The Red Loyalty program gives guests the opportunity to earn points on dollars spent for dining. Patrons receive one point for every dollar spent on qualifying purchases including all dining, gift cards and gifts when checking out with their loyalty card. Enrollment is free and available at any location. Points can be used for discounts on dining, gear and gift and for exclusive destination dining invitations. All RED Loyalty participants receive $10 upon online registration, birthday rewards, online access, email notifications and members-only offers and promotions. Offers are subject to change.
For more information on Distill, please visit www.distillbar.com or on Facebook at www.facebook.com/distilllocalbar. **Distill is a 21 or older establishment in the bar area; all ages in the non-smoking dining room. Guests must provide valid ID.**

Diagnosing Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT)
People with IGT have blood glucose levels that are higher than normal but not high enough to say they have diabetes. This condition is diagnosed using the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). After a fast of 8 to12 hours, a person's blood glucose is measured before and 2 hours after drinking a glucose-containing solution.
- In normal glucose tolerance, blood glucose rises no higher than 140 mg/dl 2 hours after the drink.
- In impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), the 2-hour blood glucose is between 140 and 199 mg/dl.
- If the 2-hour blood glucose rises to 200 mg/dl or above, a person has diabetes.
How does the fasting blood glucose test differ from the oral glucose tolerance test?
In the fasting blood glucose test, a person's blood glucose is measured after a fast of 8 to 12 hours:
- A person with normal blood glucose has a blood glucose level below 100.
- A person with impaired fasting glucose has a blood glucose level between 100 and 125 mg/dl.
- If the fasting blood glucose level rises to126 mg/dl or above, a person has diabetes.
The OGTT includes measures of blood glucose levels after a fast and after a glucose challenge. In 1997, an American Diabetes Association (ADA) expert panel recommended that doctors use the fasting blood glucose test to screen their patients for diabetes because the test is easier and less costly than the OGTT. Though the fasting glucose test detects most diabetes cases, the OGTT is more sensitive in identifying people with blood glucose problems that may first appear only after a glucose challenge.
For a person with IGT, what is the risk of developing type 2 diabetes?
As few as 1 to as many as 10 of every 100 persons with IGT will develop diabetes per year. The risk of getting diabetes rises as people become more overweight and more sedentary, have a stronger family history of diabetes, and belong to an "at-risk" racial or ethnic minority group.
How many people in the U.S. have IGT?
About 20 million people in the U.S. have IGT, according to the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey III. A recent study, the Diabetes Prevention Study, focused its efforts on preventing or delaying the development of diabetes only in people with glucose levels in the upper half of the impaired glucose tolerance range. They used an intensive lifestyle intervention program focused on diet and exercise that enabled participants to lose about 5-7 percent of their body weight and exercise about 30 minutes per day. This level of weight loss and increased exercise reduced the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 58 percent. In a second arm of the study, participants taking a medication, metformin, reduced their risk by 31 percent. Since DPP researchers studied the interventions only in people with glucose levels in the upper half of the impaired glucose tolerance range, the findings can only be strictly applied to the 10 million people with similar glucose levels after an OGTT. However, many researchers think it is reasonable to assume that millions more people with IGT would also benefit from the DPP interventions.

Jackson achieved a highest finish of fourth on his way to eighth overall in 2015's standings for Cooksport – notably the result, at Rockingham, also gave him a maiden win in the UK Clio Cup's 'Graduates' class for the grid's young drivers.
The 21-year-old becomes the second driver in quick succession to be announced as a Cooksport driver for 2016 after Rory Collingbourne (Newport, South Wales) also confirmed he was staying with the Bristol-based outfit for a second season.
Jackson commented: "This year is all about building on what I achieved with Cooksport in my debut UK Clio Cup season when we showed we had the pace to be on the podium.
"The team do a fantastic job and there's the bonus of having a top touring car name like Josh as a mentor. I'm really up for it this year and want to be fighting for the top spots right from the off."
Cook said: "I'm delighted George and Rory will be team-mates with us again in 2016 as they worked very well together last year. You can't rush experience so, from a personal point of view, I'm really looking forward to working with them both again.
"George really came on strong with his pace, racecraft and aggression as 2015 progressed and at Rockingham he came very close to beating one of the title challengers, Ash Hand, to the podium. I expect him and Rory to push one another and be fighting for the big positions this year…"
Renaultsport's UK Championship Motorsport Manager Will Fewkes added: "Off the back of some very good performances George will surely have gone into the winter break high on confidence so could really be one to watch when our new season starts at Brands Hatch in early April. The Cooksport name of course also adds further credibility to the very relevant links between the UK Clio Cup and BTCC grids."
All 18 races on the 2016 UK Clio Cup calendar will take place at the BTCC's high-profile events – meaning huge trackside crowds and live television coverage on ITV4 for its drivers, teams and sponsors.

Organizer Spotlight:
Dribbling Geezers vs. J2 Shooters
On August 9th, an over 50 basketball team from Yokohama, Japan, faced off with an over 40 basketball Meetup from San Jose, California. The game was organized by two players named Mike – Mike B. from California, and Mike S. from Japan. We caught up with both Mikes after the game to learn how it all came about…and, of course, to find out who won.
"I grew up playing basketball," Mike B. explains, "but when I turned 35 I felt too old to keep playing. I thought, 'okay, this is a sport I can't play anymore.'" He stopped playing, and shortly after turning 50, found himself joining Meetups about everything from business networking, to food and film. "I joined all these Meetups and realized, 'I think I can pull this off and start to play again,'" he remembers. In December 2011, he created the Over 40 Pickup Basketball Meetup in San Jose, California. He wasn't sure what to expect, but the response was overwhelmingly positive. "I think there are a lot of people like me, who grew up playing and gave it up when they got older," he says. "We've had people come from up to 70 miles away to play." Today the Meetup is over 130 members strong. "I'm always blown away when I see how many Meetups we've had. It's really amazing. It's changed a lot of people's lives. Most of the people who play say, 'I haven't played in ten years!' One guy lost 30 pounds since he started playing again."
Over 5,000 miles away, in Yokohama, Japan, Mike S. plays on a similar team for basketball players over 50. "I've played with my team in Yokohama for just a little over a year," he says. "These guys are all retired and some have played together since high school, for more than 40 years now. We practice a couple times a month and get together once a month for a senior tournament." The team also travels together to watch and play games outside of Japan. A few months back, they got to work planning their third overseas trip, this time to California. As the only English speaker on the team, Mike S. helped out with the planning. "Our organizer asked me to arrange a game in California," he says. "I did a search online for seniors basketball and up came Mike B.'s Meetup."
A few weeks later, the two teams met up for an international basketball showdown. Mike B. christened the teams the J2 Shooters (Japan) and the Dribbling Geezers (USA), and we sent custom jerseys to commemorate the occasion. "No one besides Mike S. spoke English on their team," says Mike B. "But one of the players on our team speaks Japanese really well so he volunteered to be the referee." Despite the language barrier, the game went off without a hitch. "We all know basketball," says Mike S, "and Mike B. was great about making us feel welcome."
When the official game came to an end, the playing continued. "After the game, we started playing on new teams," says Mike B. "I was playing with three of the Japanese players and two of my own teammates." Despite the mixed teams, communication flowed naturally. "You do have to communicate," explains Mike B. "but the way you communicate is through basketball – 'I go here, so you throw there,' and so on. Verbal communication was limited, but communication wasn't." Everyone enjoyed themselves late into the afternoon. "We had a great time playing with Mike's team," says Mike S. The sentiment was mutual. "It made us all feel 40 again," jokes Mike B.
As for who won? " Mike B.'s team had more points," reports Mike S., "but we all felt like winners."


text: Bodily ornamentation was a part of Maya culture, and commoners and elite alike displayed various fashions. Peasant women often adorned themselves with ornaments for their long, braided hair, as well as single and multiple stranded bead necklaces (HM 5437, 5449, 793), pendants (HM 791, 5425, 5322), ear ornaments and nose buttons. For poorer women, such items were made of albite, shell, amber, and wood. Higher status women wore similar adornments made of precious stones like jade, and high-ranking women would often wear an entire cape of jade, as well as necklaces. Male dress also incorporated bodily ornamentation, and included necklaces, ear spools (HM 770.1, 770.2, 174), pectoral plates (HM 1183), wrist and ankle cuffs, nose and mouth pieces, and headdressesall were key indications of social standing and wealth. Many of the ornaments worn, particularly earspools, were shaped to represent a flower. Another important indication of social status was skull deformation and crossed eyes. To the Mayas, both were marks of profound beauty. Mothers would often tie boards to the foreheads of their male infants, literally forcing the skull to grow into a high-protruding cone shape as the child aged. Similarly, mothers would attach a piece of resin from a strand of hair hanging between the eyes of a young child, encouraging the eyes to focus inward. Decorative scars and tattoos were also popular between both peasant and elite classes.

Chat about College Hockey
ESPN2 will televise the Frozen Four on Thursday, starting with Maine-Michigan State at 4 p.m. ET, followed by Boston College-North Dakota at 8 p.m. ET.
Send your questions now and join INCH every Thursday at 2:30 p.m. ET.
INCH Archive: Chats
Joe Gladziszewski (2:49 PM)
After some slight technical difficulties, we're ready to go with some college hockey chat here on The Show. Today's Frozen Four begins in just over an hour.
Joe Gladziszewski (2:42 PM)
Thanks for all of the questions, we'll be here right up until face off. Please feel free to write in and we'll talk about today's semifinals and other things going on in the college hockey world.
Sean (Iowa City, IA)
Will the Sioux's lack of fire power beyond their first line (Duncan,Oshie, Toews)be a problem? Or will their other lines step up?
Joe Gladziszewski (2:45 PM)
One of the best parts of NoDak's regional win in Denver was the contributions from all of their lines. Guys like Erik Fabian, Darcy Zajak, and Rylan Kaip have supplemented the efforts from the Sioux's top guys. If they keep up their consistency, North Dakota will be in great shape.
Austin (East Lansing, MI)
Being in the band at Michigan State I've seen my fair share of their games this year and it's hard to ignore the fact that they've been wildly inconsistent, however in the two regional games they looked good against a solid BU team and an excellent Notre Dame club. Given the fact that in the regional games Jeff Lerg seems to have regained the poise he possessed throughout last season and the sophomore line of Kennedy, Abdelkader, and Crowder continued to find ways to light the lamp, do you think the Spartans can continue their run and leave St. Louis with a national championship?
Joe Gladziszewski (2:48 PM)
As you noted, Michigan State's consistency (or inconsistency) is the determining factor. The sophomore line that you mentioned is excellent, in fact I'd rate it as the second best scoring line at this tournament, behind North Dakota's top crew of Duncan-Oshie-Toews. Michigan State can definitely win this tournament ... all four teams have a shot. There is no true "underdog" this year.
Dustin (Grand Rapids)
With Jack Johnson among many others leaving for the nhl do you expect a drop off from michigan next year?
Joe Gladziszewski (2:58 PM)
The Wolverines always face a tough task of replacing players, whether they're seniors or underclassmen. As one of college hockey's elite programs, they get top-notch recruits and usually reload their roster. I'd expect the same finish next year as they had this year for the Wolverines ... top three or so in the CCHA and definitely a national tournament berth.
scott (germantown, md)
Is UND wearing the logo?
Joe Gladziszewski (2:51 PM)
Yes, North Dakota's regular sweaters are being worn this weekend, and all Frozen Four merchandise includes the Sioux's logo, bearing the Native American head profile.
Hurley (nyc)
While Boyle has played well in his new role as a defenseman, does he still project as a forward in the NHL? Considering that it usually takes defensemen who've played the position their entire lives longer to adjust to the NHL than forwards, won't Boyle's lack of experience become a problem at the next level?
Joe Gladziszewski (2:54 PM)
Great question, and it's interesting to discuss. Brian Boyle's pro future has been one of the most popular topics around Boston College in recent weeks, and I'm sure they'd rather just talk about him being an Eagle. I think he projects to being a better forward in the NHL, for the reasons you said. Learning about puckhandling and gap control and responsibility in the d-zone is one thing in college, but an entirely different thing in the show. We'll see tonight how he matches up against North Dakota's top line. Those guys will be a good measuring stick for what he might see in his professional career.
Todd (Boston)
Do you expect teams come out a bit rusty in the first period, having had so much time off?
Joe Gladziszewski (3:04 PM)
Yes, that's definitely a factor in the Frozen Four. Not only adjusting to time off, but also a non-traditional start time in the afternoon. Whichever team gets off to a hot start has an advantage.
Reggie (Orlando)
Last year the Sioux appeared to have a better team (at least on paper) than BC, but BC jumped all over ND early in the first period and the Sioux never recovered. How do you see today's game playing out?
Joe Gladziszewski (2:59 PM)
As mentioned in the previous discussion, getting a first-period lead is essential in these games. All four teams were very focused yesterday and I didn't sense a feeling of awe or intimidation by the venue or event. We'll see what happens tonight, but the Sioux will definitely need a better start than they had last year.
Brad Hoffarth, Minot, ND
Why do you think the national champions the last 6 out of 7 years has come from the WCHA.
Joe Gladziszewski (3:10 PM)
Certainly the WCHA has had excellent teams during the run they're on, and credit goes to the coaching staffs at Denver, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wisconsin for bringing in top-level players. But that's not an insult toward other teams. Those champions have happened to play in the same conference, but they're not winning a championship because they're WCHA teams.
Mike P (Boston)
Does the fact that BC has won most of its games during their recent streak by 3 goals or more make them vulnerable in a close game?
Joe Gladziszewski (3:06 PM)
Great question. I think that it actually gives them an advantage if they're in a tight game, because they have the feeling of winning. The confidence and swagger that comes during a winning streak carries over in a close game. You expect your teammates to make that great play or great save.
Joe Gladziszewski (3:08 PM)
We'll hand the chat over to our senior writer in charge of covering Hockey East, Jeff Howe, for a bit. Thanks for the questions. Enjoy the game.
hef (nyc)
Can Tim Army return PC to Lamorello-like prominence?
Jeff Howe (3:11 PM)
It won't be easy because he's recruiting against four great programs and a couple really solid up-and-comers in Vermont and UMass. I liked what Army did with the team last year and really expected the Friars to finish in the top 5 or 6 in Hockey East this year. He's got potential. The good thing is the fact that he's a Providence guy through and through, and this is the job he plans on keeping as long as they plan on sticking with him
Ryan (Maine)
Give me the prediction I want to see. Who wins it all?
Jeff Howe (3:13 PM)
I'll give you half the prediction you want to see. BC beats North Dakota 4-2, and Maine tops MSU 3-1. BC then beats Maine 4-1.
Gerry (Hingham, MA)
Will BU still think they are better than BC if BC wins the national title? Doesn't BU realise that there are other things besides the beanpot?
Jeff Howe (3:15 PM)
OK, the BC-BU rivalry is a great one, but why are you still thinking about the Terriers? You've got a big one with the Sioux tonight.
Jayson (UMD, MN)
How well can BC's defense match up with the Duncan,Oshie,Toews line? Also, Can "Team Canada" (No. Dak) keep the streak alive for the WCHA, and win it all?
Jeff Howe (3:27 PM)
BC is going to stack Boyle and Brennan against that top line all night. It should be an interesting matchup, and this will be Boyle's biggest test since switching to the blue line. Brennan is one great player, and he should be all right out there. That's a relentless line, though. These guys can't sleep on them for a single shift. At least they've got Schneider back there to help them out, too. As for the WCHA streak, NoDak has a good shot to win this thing, but I really like how BC is playing right now. I'm picking the Eagles.
Gerry (Hingham, MA)
because i have a BU fan chirping "where's your beanpot?" in my ear :)
Jeff Howe (3:20 PM)
Never a dull moment with you guys, is there?
Hurley (nyc)
Taking into account graduation, likely early departures and incoming recruits, which of this year's frozen four teams has the best chance of returning next year?
Jeff Howe (3:28 PM)
That's a tough question. Maine loses a lot of great players to graduation, and a lot of those guys are role guys you need to build a championship base. BC could be strong if its three sophomores all return, which I expect they will, but they probably won't have Schneider. I'm not sold that NoDak will return their entire top line. Michigan State will take a hit on defense but the skill guys will be back. I like the Spartans with that question. They are a year early in that regard.
Joe - Cubicle Hell
How do you see the games playing out today? As well as Saturday?
Jeff Howe (3:39 PM)
The two games pair up very well. The first game will be a slower defensive battle, but I think Maine has a little more offensive firepower and is riding a wave of confidence. The second game could be a classic. BC and NoDak will be flying around the ice all night, and it should be very exciting. I take BC winning by two with an empty netter.
David: (Fargo, North Dakota)
If North Dakota can score first and get some momentum in the first period, what do you think their chances are ?
Jeff Howe (3:35 PM)
This team has a great chance. It's just running into a hotter squad. BC hasn't trailed in like six years so it could be vulnerable if it faces a deficit with such high stakes. North Dakota needs to put pressure on early because BC has the confidence and fully expects to win these games as the streak goes on. NoDak doesn't want to let BC get in a comfort zone.
Mike (Arkansas)
In the ever-evolving argument about which is better, the WCHA or Hockey East, where do you think we stand right now in terms of comparing the overall strength of each league?
Jeff Howe (3:38 PM)
The WCHA still has the national title mojo going, which is pretty important in the grand scheme of things. This year, Hockey East has the upper hand with five NCAA tournament teams to the WCHA's three, and two Frozen Four squads to the WCHA's one. From top to bottom, Hockey East is the best conference in the country. The WCHA's top teams probably have the nod over Hockey East's top teams, though.
Tim H (nyc)
Which of the little guys is the big hero this weekend - Ryan Duncan, Nathan Gerbe or Jeff Lerg?
Jeff Howe (3:49 PM)
I think Lerg has the best chance to be the hero among those three, but Duncan probably takes the Hobey.
Jeff Howe (3:51 PM)
OK, everyone. We're heading out to the ice to kick this thing off. Thanks for stopping by for our weekly Thursday Inside College Hockey chat, but make sure you come back for a bonus edition tomorrow at 2:30 Eastern, 1:30 Central. Enjoy the games.

Racial Attacks on Indians in Australia
During 2009 more than 400 cases of assault on Indian's in Australia were recorded. In no European or American country such a racial discrimination and attacks on Indians and South East Asians has been reported. Govt of India has, through Australian High Commissioner in India, has expressed resentment as never before. Unfortunately even during first half of January 2010, a number of assaults on Indians have been reported, particularly four assaults in three days from 13th to 16th January 2010. In addition possibly for the first time six South East Asians, including three Indians, were not allowed to enter a bar in Australia on 16th of January 2010.
Paul John Brogden, an Australian was traveling in a taxi driven by Indian. As John had taken lot of alcohol, he was fully drunk. All of a sudden he started abusing the Indian cabbie "when you drop me off I will kill your mother…. (Unprintable) Indian bastard. As he got down he started thrashing the Indian cabbie. Luckily for Indian there was Australian police nearby that heard the shouting and abuses as well as saw the assault. The police took the Australian into custody then and there. As he confessed the guilt immediately, to save his skin and himself, he was sent to jail within couple of hours for three months. The horrible act was of setting on fire a place of worship of Indians (Gurudwara). Ministry of External Affairs of government of India, through Australian High Commission in India and also through Indian press and Media expressed unhappiness and strong resentment. So far Australian Government had hood-winked all the cases of 400 assault on Indians but the unholy act of burning of Gurudwara, an Indian place of worship seems to have woken up the Australian Government and it acted spontaneously in the case of assault on Indian cabbie.
It appears that Australian Government, to avoid worsening of relations with India, for the first time indirectly accepted that attacks on more than 400 Indian were racial. It seems that none from China, Japan and South East Asia, so far, had been assaulted even once. India and Australia are members of Commonwealth and have quite strong bonds. Still it is to be watched and seen during next 2-3 months. If relations become harmonious as before then Indian students may apply for Australian Visa though not in such large number as before 2009 assault on Indians. It is heartening to note that the Australian High Commission in India, Peter Vargiese on 15th January 2010 said that the Australian Government was determined to take action against these Australians involved in attacks on Indian nationals in Australia though he said that hasty conclusions may be avoided about the motives of such attacks on Indian nationals.
On behalf of Government of India, Minister of State for External Affairs, Parneet Kaur, emphatically said on 15-1-10' we are doing our utmost to register our absolute displeasure and concern about what is happening to our citizens in Australia" she further added "we can only hope that Australia gets its act together like they are telling us and brings the perpetrator to book."
It must be said that Government of Indian slept over the atrocities to Indians for more than a year. Had India shown strong and absolute resentment when just 10 or 20 Indians had been attacked during early 2009 possibly there would not have been attacks on more than 400 Indians and finally burning of Indian holy place (Gurudwara) .
Aboriginals in Australia had been discriminated upto 1967. They are one 1% of population of Australia now. It is only in 1967 that discrimination against aboriginals was ended by amendment of the constitution of Commonwealth of Australia. Prior to 1967, they were mostly confined to remote areas, many of the aboriginals were "killed" when British occupied Australia, just as many aboriginals were killed in South America when British and other Europeans landed and occupied the vast continents. As in USA today the Australian Government has "numerous projects to improve the health, education, skills and living conditions." But today, as in USA, aboriginals want " to regain control over all their traditional tribal territories not only these lands occupied by Aboriginal Communities."
Similarly in Argentina, when in 1500, more than five centuries back the population of aboriginals (called Indians) was 2,50,000. Lakhs were mercilessly killed to make place in best areas for Europeans. As a result, "Today Argentina has only 50,000 Indians of unmixed ancestry". Ordinarily in 500 years Indians (aboriginals) would have been more than 5 million in today's population of 33 million composed of immigrants from Spain and all European countries. "Huge waves of immigrants" as the country had only about a million people in mid 1880's."
The facts about hatred, killing and confinement of remaining aboriginals in Australia for centuries are relevant because even today in Australia there is some racial hatred for non whites. That is one of the reasons that because of racial factors more than 400 Indians were attacked molested and many killed in just one year ie. 2009 and finally an Indian place of worship was burnt. In USA, discrimination against coloured and aboriginals ended more than a century ago. That is why a coloured person Mr. Obama has been chosen President of USA. But as in Australia discrimination against Aboriginals officially ended only in 1967, it is likely take a number of years more before all whites in Australia start treating Aboriginals and coloured immigrants like Indians, Chinese, Japanese and South East Asians as equal, provided the Australian Government is firm in ending racial discrimination, attacks and killings.

50 Fast Years…50 Great Stories (Read it Now!) [PDF 175kb]
Researching and writing this project was very similar to putting a giant puzzle together without having a picture or a map to go by – I kept searching for another piece, trying to fit it in properly and then I'd find another clue or story to be told about quarter horse racing. Some stories are missing and it is regrettable, but the large scope of 50 Fast Years- 50 Great Stories means that some stories, unfortunately, are left untold. And, like many stories, if they are not written down, they are forgotten and much of our quarter horse racing history has not been documented. For months now, I listened and I wrote.
Read More . . .
No one knows where the dream originated or how the dream got started – it could have been that cattle rancher from Oyen or Drayton Valley who started it, or was it that rich oil tycoon from High River who previously had owned cutting horses that started the dream? Or, was it that woman way up in northern Alberta who watched that first foal being born from her fast Montana mare who thought of the dream? Or, could it be that wise elder of the Blackfoot band down by Cardston who had seen his sorrel stallion run across the plains and run so quickly that it made his heart quicken? Read More . . .
CHAPTER 2 – AT THE VERY BEGINNING TIME FRAME – 1950s and 1960s
When I was doing my research into the roots of quarter horse racing, one man's name kept cropping up again and again; people said, "You'll have to get in touch with Gerry Going because he was instrumental in organizing the Alberta racing association and he was one of the first who raced quarter horses in the province." It took considerable detective work but I finally talked to a very gracious and humble horseman who acknowledged his role in the quarter horse racing industry.

CHAPTER 3 – THE SUPER SEVENTIES START IT UP AGAIN TIME FRAME – 1970s
The same winds of racing which were blowing through central and southern Alberta were blowing through the north as well and no one was more excited or enthusiastic about quarter horse racing than Jerry Stojan. He would rattle off quarter horse pedigrees till your head was spinning but he was also one of the sport's earliest breeders of running horses. He purchased Son of a Bar in 1969 . . .

CHAPTER 4 – RACING FEVER HITS US ALL TIME FRAME – THE 80s
If a statistician was ever going to compile a poll over who put the most miles on their pick-up truck going to the races or hauling horses down the road, I would just have to get on the bandwagon and nominate Earl Brown and Donalda Cochrane to top the list. Not only does this couple have bragging rights for being successful owners, trainers and breeders but they drive to Texas , Oklahoma , California , or Lethbridge the way most people drive to the grocery store. They have been racing since the 70s . . .

CHAPTER 5 – LOTS OF ACTION, TONS OF EXCITEMENT TIME FRAME – 80s and EARLY 90s
There's always something to laugh about around the race track so here's some race track humor. Cliff Whitelock was leaning on the paddock rails at Millarville and Conrad Scoville was leading his horse around. An old boy in the crowd hollered out to Connie. "Hey, can that horse run?" Connie hollered back, "Hell yes, he can run." The old boy high tailed it to the windows to put a big bet down. Well, the long and the short of it Connie's horse ran back and the old boy came back red in the face and pure mad. "I thought you said that horse can run." "He can run but just not very damn fast," replied Connie with a grin.

CHAPTER 6 – QUARTER HORSES GET THEIR FASTER TIME FRAME – THE 90s and ONWARD
"At the spring meet in Lethbridge in 1994, my dad, Garnet, and I came across a beautiful bay filly. There was something about her that just stamped her as special so my dad, who was retiring, and I purchased her from Bud Butts. Hemps Prime Time was from Bar Hemp and out of Ernie Keller's good mare, Now Donna. We took her home right after the spring meet and chose not to run her in Grande Prairie but to start her in the fall. We ponied and conditioned her and that fall, wooee, she won 4 races for us and we weren't just a little hooked, we were crazily hooked on quarter horse racing.
Read More . . .
I'm very proud of our 50 th year of quarter horse racing. I think that after 50 years of hard work and dedication where people could have thrown their hands in the air and quit, they didn't. Where would we be without our fore – fathers and people who had the courage and convictions to follow their dreams? We wouldn't be here and we are so fortunate to be living in Alberta and racing in this great province and we owe the gains we have made to the tenacity of these early individuals. I think our future is extraordinary – after all these years and determination, our breed is finally being accepted.As President of AQHRA, I think quarter horse racing will continue to grow and be a vital force for the future so here's to "50 Fast Years, 50 Great Stories." As told by Ross Brigdon, AQHRA President

What I have found about the history of quarter horse racing in Alberta is that it enfolds many interesting concepts. Quarter horse racing truly has been a grand endeavor and shares some common features with every one who has participated in it since its beginnings.
What I found out was how family orientated it has been. The interest in quarter horse racing has been transmitted down to our future generations. Our children have been involved and now, even our grand children.

How far can we go and just how fast can our horses run? It's uncertain but one thing for sure is certain – we have followed our dream, we have lived the dream and we ran fast horses.

Just underwent a breakup? Get busy with a band saw from gardening and home! Below are four other ways you can use a band saw aside from resawing and resetting the edge of a wooden board.
Veneer is a thin decorative cover of fine wood which is applied to a rougher material like wood. You can use veneer to design the front portions of doors, drawers, and other projects. You just need to saw a board into multiple thin pieces using your band saw. This tool can accomplish the job with ease.
Resetting board faces
Use your band saws to shape table legs with curves! The band saw won't have trouble cutting complex curves into wood because they're tailored to do so after all. You can use your band saw to reorient the face of a board too. This saw can turn your boring sawing life into an extraordinary one.
Making Bent Laminations
This practical saw can also saw thin laminates which form a bent lamination. This is another method that could substantially level up your game when it comes to designing. Like thick veneer, laminates are sawed in sequence from a chunky board.
Processing small logs
A band saw can also be utilized as a small mill to process small logs like the ones you can find in your backyard.
Essential Tips
Remember to set the guides near the wood
If you've read the manual, then you must already be aware of this. It's crucial to set the guides close to the material because of two reasons. First, it doesn't expose much of the blade, making it safe for you to use the saw. Second, the upper blade guides will be close to the lower blade guides mounted under the miter saw's table. And that's good because that means you'll end up with the finest cutting results.
Begin at the shallowest angle
Making a contoured cut? Start at the shallowest angle. If you don't, it could lead to a ragged edge, as the blade can swerve away from the line and pop out. If, however, the angles are of little depth at both ends of a contour, begin at every end and saw to the middle.
Round the blade
True the blade using a saw blade to cut tighter curves, lengthen blade life, and lessen blade vibration. Begin by getting rid of the back corners, then round the back. This may take around five minutes, but it's worth it. You can also use the stone found on scroll saw blades as well.

Jain girl's fast-unto-death: Closure of case will embolden religious groups
Aradhana's family, it is reported, influenced the child to undertake this fast in the hope that this would better the family's jewellery business, which had run into debt.
It should have been an open and shut case, but five months after 13-year-old Aradhana Samdariya died after a 68-day fast in Hyderabad, the police find they have to drop the case against those responsible for lack of evidence.
The police have either been extremely shoddy in their work or are acting under pressure from the powerful Jain clergy, which sanctioned the little girl's fast in the first place. After her death due to a cardiac arrest brought on by extreme nutritional deprivation, the police had registered a case of culpable homicide and one under Section 75 of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015, for wilful neglect of a child.
It is inexplicable why this was not done during the highly publicised fast that the girl undertook ostensibly to improve her father's business fortunes. The explanation that there is no technical evidence or witnesses does not wash, the child was visited by several politicians during her fast, advertisements were taken out about it and her school knew of this. Above all, her parents knew, though they argue that she undertook this voluntarily.
But the question is, was a young girl in a position to make a life or death decision while in the custody of her parents? Did her family and others who witnessed this fast not have the duty to stop it and save her life? The clerics of the community argued that this was a tradition in their religion and could not be questioned. But the death of a child cannot be explained away as being part of tradition, the coercive element in this fast amounts to child abuse which led to fatal consequences.
Similarly, when children in Tamil Nadu undertook body piercing to appease the gods and save the late chief minister J Jayalalithaa, it was explained away as being part of tradition. Nothing justifies any tradition or religious practice which harms children.
Aradhana's death and the fact that people who were responsible for her well being have got of scot free sets a dreadful example to other young children that this is somehow a noble thing.
It will also encourage religious groups and sects who prescribe regressive and dangerous practices for children – an example is burying children for a few seconds in certain areas of Karnataka to cure them of physical disabilities, another is throwing babies off a 50-foot tower to be caught below in Maharashtra to negate bad luck. These are practices that must be resisted in the interest of child rights. The Aradhana case should have been a test case, instead it has fallen apart putting the lives and well being of more children in danger.

Sony Mobile Communications
Pressing "Record" on a video while you're on holiday is easy – anyone with a smartphone or camera can do it. If you want to produce something more professional, you can wind up spending hours on video editing software only to end up with content which doesn't feel as slick as it should.
Fortunately for owners of Sony's latest flagship smartphone, Xperia 1, shooting their own holiday movie to a professional standard has never been easier! It's the world's first smartphone with a 4K HDR OLED display1, bringing true-to-life colour and crystal-clear content in 21:9 – the same aspect ratio as your favourite box office film. But it doesn't stop there. The Xperia 1 is full of incredible features and video recording capabilities to ensure your holiday film keeps people watching until the very end.
Thanks to it's professional-grade technologies, the Xperia 1 is proving to be a fan-favourite amongst cinema-buffs who fancy themselves as a bit of a film director – even if it is only while you're exploring a new city! Inspired by the digital motion picture camera professionals at CineAlta, the Xperia 1 really brings your entertainment to life through two key features. In fact, the technologies that inspired these features are so widely acknowledged in the motion pictures industry that similar software is being used in the cameras which are currently producing James Cameron's Avatar sequels.
Firstly, Creator mode "powered by CineAlta" brings content to life exactly how the creator envisioned. The smartphone's 10 bit tonal gradation helps to deliver a myriad of colours with deeper blacks, more natural colour tones and a wide spectrum of colours with BT.20202 colour space and D65 White Point – perfect for capturing brightly coloured buildings against a summer backdrop.
What's more, the Xperia 1's colour reproduction, inspired by Master Monitor, means that the scenery you choose to film is reproduced on-screen with exceptional contrast and clarity. Your friends and family will feel like they were there too!
The other feature that will make your holiday videos truly pop is Cinema Pro "powered by CineAlta". The capabilities of Cinema Pro will allow you to shoot footage of exotic wildlife or historical buildings with similar parameters and settings as the professionals. The pre-installed app comes with a series of different "Look" colour settings which allows you to change the mood of the film. Next time you touch down in a new country, try capturing identical shots in the 'Strong' and 'Warm' settings – the former creates a cool, calm and almost eerie mood, while the latter offers softness, warmth and an element of romance. Visiting a forgotten fairground? Try changing the "Look" setting to make it feel eerie. Heading to the beach? "Look" will make your content stand-out with a warmer, happier mood.
When we took Xperia 1 to Venice, we put on our directorial hats and got creative with our shots. You can check out the end result of our trip through the winding canals of this historical city below:
We shot this exclusively using Cinema Pro and Venice CS "Look" setting on Xperia 1 creating a cinematic feel. Unlike other smartphones, using this function means we didn't have to make as many amends to the camera's settings as "Look" does it all for you! The default frame rate is the cinematic standard of 24fps which creates a much more filmic look compared to the smartphone standard of 30fps. Pair this with the flagship's ability to shoot in 4K HDR at 21:9 aspect ratio makes the whole process as easy as pie!
If you want to find out exactly which settings and features can help you create you own professional-standard holiday movie, keep checking back here on the Sony Mobile blog.

You are currently browsing the category archive for the 'Matthew Shepard' category.
Last night, while avoiding doing the things I should be doing, I was flicking around youtube and came upon a US television drama based on the life and death of Matthew Shepard; the Matthew Shepard Story (warning this is a pretty disturbing movie). In 1998 Matthew was 21 when he was lured into a remote part of Wyoming, tied to a cattle fence, beaten unconscious, and left to die. He died a few days later in hospital. The movie portrays the events leading up-to the death of Matthew and his parent's anguish as they have to face the sentancing hearing of one of the boys who killed their son. A boy who showed no mercy to Matthew begged Matthew's parents to show him mercy and not request the death penalty. The movie, as I pre-warned is disturbing, not only for it's immediate content but also because it reveals the dark side of humanity which enables such a crime to occur.
Regardless of one's personal beliefs, attitudes, religious affiliation, you have to ask how can humanity be so cruel to one of it's own kind. The movie shows how powerful hate and prejudice can be, but it also shows how true compassion can be learnt, even amidst great heartache and loss.
I find myself still processing this movie. I remember hearing of the death of Matthew back in 98. Though I don't think I took much to heart about it. Though seeing this movie the senseless violence that exists in the world, all too iconic in events like the killing of Matthew, the killings of Port Arthur, the shootings at Columbine, the tragedy of 9/11 (the list could go on), seems to have snuck in my cynical exterior and left me wondering – will we survive ourselves.
I know some call it a crutch, irrelevant, or antiquated, but I have to say my faith perhaps is the one thing that gets me through these kinds of senseless acts of violence and terror. My faith offers a way of hope. Christ stood, even at the door of death, for tolerance, peace, compassion, mercy, and justice for all. I believe that if we can open our ears, hearts, and minds to really take in the message of Christ that there is hope for the world. The challenge for us all I guess is to discover how we can take in that message and how we can live it out.

specifically i think it's a gay youth who is experiencing gay love but has to keep this side of himself secret fearing his family's rejection. his lover is not closeted and can be more open with his sexuality than he can yet is still victim to society's violent intolerance. this inspires the gay youth to be honest with his family about his homosexuality seeking protection, support and acceptance for his lover and himself but is unfortunately met with the same skewed views on homosexuality the rest of the world has and runs away, living on the streets sleeping where ever he can but very happy to be finally free and loved. his family begins to blame his lover for the youth's behavior and for leaving. so the angry father decides to avenge the shame brought on his family by killing who he believes to be the cause of his family's misfortune and his son's ruin in the process also ending his son's life though not physically but ending his possibilities to be happy, to love, to dance, to be with his family instead turning his life into bleak loneliness, bitterness and spite because now he can't be with the one he loves and has contempt for his father and his family.
a sad recount of something a lot of runaway gay youths face.

(SmartMates Procedures)
Desired Mate Action
What to Do
|Mate two components already in the assembly.
|Press Alt and drag one component onto another.
|Mate a new component while adding it to the assembly.
|Drag a part from another window onto another part in the assembly.
|Fully mate a commonly-used component while inserting it in the assembly.
|Drag a part with mate references from Windows Explorer or the Design Library into the assembly. This method can fully mate a new component, but you must set up mate references beforehand.
Types of SmartMates
The mates added by the SolidWorks application depend on the situation.
- In most cases, the application creates one mate. The type of SmartMate created depends on the geometry used to drag the component, and the type of geometry onto which you drop the component.
- The application creates multiple mates under certain conditions:
- If the application finds circular edges to mate, it creates a peg-in-hole SmartMate.
- If the application finds circular edges and a circular pattern that matches on both components, in addition to the peg-in-hole SmartMate, it adds a concentric mate to line up the patterns on flanges ( useful for pipe fittings).

The Shocking Truth Behind Miley Cyrus' $50,000 'Engagement' Ring
Miley showed off her massive diamond rock on Twitter earlier — and HollywoodLife has all the exclusive details about it!
After Miley Cyrus tweeted a picture of herself wearing a HUGE diamond ring on her wedding finger earlier today, the internet went abuzz speculating that the 19-year-old actress had gotten engaged to her hunky boyfriend Liam Hemsworth. So what's the truth?
"They are very much in love, they are not engaged," an inside source tells Hollywoodlife, adding that Liam didn't even buy her the ring.
We can reveal a little bit more about the bauble, though. Miley's ring appears to be a three-carat round diamond ring with an eight-prong gold setting worth around $50,000, according to experts at 47 St. Diamond exchange. "They don't sell rings like that anymore," the diamond expert added. "It looks too old to have been purchased recently."
Maybe it's a family heirloom!

16 wishes for our state and county in 2016
With January in full swing, here's my "wish list" for enhancing Orange County's economy for 2016. My dream year looks like this:
• Statewide and local reforms return environmental laws, like CEQA, to their original intent in clearly protecting the environment instead of allowing them to be used as a special interest shakedown litigation tool.
• The Newport Banning Ranch project is approved by the California Coastal Commission and begins development for both its environmental benefits and much-needed new housing for Orange County.
• State lawmakers, working with Gov. Brown, develop a clear plan to encourage homebuilding in California, finally easing the shortage and affordability crises.
• The county of Orange and Anaheim complete construction of their first homeless shelter and the county and Santa Ana repurpose the old bus depot as a second shelter.
• State lawmakers approve a transportation bill, with significant system reforms and new revenue, to follow up the bipartisan federal transportation reauthorization bill that Congress passed in 2015.
• A comprehensive, innovative solution is reached to build a connection for SR-241 and I-5, protecting parks, habitats, water quality and local communities.
• OCTA and Caltrans work efficiently together to improve SR-55 and I-405, protecting both Measure M and limited state transportation dollars.
• A water desalination project, similar to the now-online Carlsbad system, is finally approved by the California Coastal Commission for Huntington Beach and surrounding communities.
• Gov. Jerry Brown's "California Water Fix" moves forward to address the San Joaquin Delta's limitations that threaten the environment and the state's water supply.
• The EPA declines to list areas of Anaheim and Fullerton as "Superfund" sites and, instead, sees real progress on groundwater cleanup with impacted cities, business and local water agencies.
• Santa Ana Unified School District welcomes Latino Education Attainment and THINK Together programs back as effective tools for student achievement and success, resulting in increased high school graduation and college entrances.
• The California Supreme Court upholds the trial court decision inVergara v. California that every child – no matter the income level – has a right to an effective teacher and equal access to a quality education.
• Congress approves the Trans -Pacific Partnership trade agreement to open up more international markets to California exporters.
• California voters reject numerous tax-increase proposals on the 2016 ballot.
• Anaheim and the Angels reach an agreement to retain this major league sports team and countywide economic engine for another 30 years.
• The Angels and Ducks bring championships for our local fans.
To achieve my dream, it will require a strong sense of collaboration and dedication by both the public and private sectors.
And, if El Niño brings enough rain and snowpack to partially relieve the drought, we will really have a good year!
Lucy Dunn is president and CEO, Orange County Business Council.

"Hello, Miss Sloan. Will it be the usual?", the nurse asked.
"Well then, you're in room number 27 today."
Sloan made her way down the brightly coloured corridor to the assigned room. She sat in the plush leather chair and waited for the doctor.
'Same as all the other rooms', she thought. Pink walls, sterile seating, a stack of the latest magazines, flowers, and the machine of course.
"Ah, Miss Sloan!", exclaimed Dr James as he entered the room while reading her charts. "I see you're in for the usual."
"Yes, Doctor", Sloan replied monotonously.
"Let's get started then."
Sloan rolled up her left sleeve and held her arm out. Dr James carefully found the correct vein and inserted the needle in. He connected the other end of the needle to a tube from the machine. Clear fluid started to run up the tube and into a concealed container.
Having checked the controls and once again looked at the liquid flow, the Doctor said, "Let me know if you feel any discomfort. It should take about an hour." and left the room.
Sloan took a few moments to let the slow stinging feeling of the needle settle in and then closed her eyes.
She had been coming to this hospital to donate love regularly for six months now. It had taken eight years and a many generous donations from Sloan and a few others to develop this machine. The donors came from different parts of the country, held different jobs, and had different interests. They had one thing in common though – they all had too much love to give and no one to give it to. So, they came here and donated it. The extracted love could be stored indefinitely. As far as the Doctors could see, it didn't seem to expire. It was always there for the next person in need of a withdrawal – a wife who no longer loved her husband, a mother who couldn't stand the sight of her new born baby, a friend who had moved on but still tried to hold on to childhood relationships – there was no shortage of withdrawals. And thanks to the lonely donors, no shortage of supply either. The system worked.

Renault has officially introduced the new generation Espace people-mover at the Paris Motor Show
Renault has officially introduced the new generation Espace people-mover at the Paris Motor Show.
The French company's flagship model has undergone a comprehensive transformation compared to its predecessor. It combines "the sweeping lines of a large crossover" with "an elegant yet robust stance". The MPV is up to 250 kg lighter than the previous Espace.
In France the 2015 Espace will be offered in three different trim levels – Life, Zen, Intense and Initiale Paris. Top versions will benefit from one touch folding rear seats, a configurable display of entirely digital instruments with a high-resolution TFT screen for the driver and customizable ambient lighting.
The model will be first available with three different engines – a newly developed dCi 160 EDC diesel with 160 HP (118 kW) and 380 Nm (280 lb-ft), the familiar dCi 130 diesel with 130 HP (95 kW) and 320 Nm (236 lb-ft) and the petrol TCe 200 EDC with 200 HP (147 kW) and 260 Nm (192 lb-ft). The two more powerful units will be offered with Renault's EDC (Efficient Dual Clutch) transmissions in two versions – with six or seven speeds. All of the new Espace's engines are equipped with a start-stop system, along with an energy recovery system.
Carlos Ghosn, chairman and CEO of the Renault Group, comments that "Renault has reinvented the Espace. As the flagship of our range, the new Renault Espace features Renault's DNA, with sensuous styling, an unprecedented sensation of travelling comfort and ingenious innovations geared to satisfying the desires of drivers and passengers".
