Leinster gave themselves a chance of making it into the Heineken Cup knockout stages after defeating Exeter Chiefs 29-20 on Saturday.
Leinster handed themselves a chance of progressing to the Heineken Cup knockout stages after beating Exeter 29-20 with a bonus-point on Saturday.
The five-point win means Munster must take the maximum against Racing at Thomond Park on Sunday if they are to dump out the champions.
Leinster are currently on 20 points with 12 tries to their name while Munster sit on 15 points (9 tries) and will thus know what needs to be done when they run out to face the Parisians in Limerick.
The champions crossed the whitewash before the break through Ireland duo Gordon D'Arcy and Rob Kearney before Brian O'Driscoll went over for their third while the fourth came in the 53rd minute through imposing number eight Jamie Heaslip.
Leinster made three changes to their pack which saw Richardt Strauss join Sean O'Brien and Kevin McLaughlin as the three newcomers from last week's win over the Scarlets. O'Driscoll returned to the back line, with Johnny Sexton joined by Eoin Reddan in an international half-back partnership.
Exeter meanwhile, had sold out Sandy Park for the final home game of their first venture into Heineken Cup competition, making three changes to their side which had lost in France last week. Injuries in the back line saw Sireli Naqelevuki and Ian Whitten return to the back line, with Dean Mumm introduced to the second row.
The Irish side scored first, with inside centre D'Arcy going over on five minutes, after great tactical kicking by Sexton had earned a line-out five metres from the Exeter line.
Both sides had chosen to forgo the opportunity of points from the boot, a tactic that paid off for the home side, with Neil Clark driving over the line from a line-out maul on 17 minutes.
The Leinster forwards piled on the pressure half an hour in, for Kearney to find the line after a good back line move.
Exeter's line-out driving caused further problems for Leinster just minutes later, as referee Romain Poite awarded a penalty try for the collapse of a maul. With Gareth Steenson converting, and then scoring a penalty goal on the stroke of half-time, the Chiefs were in command at the break by a margin of 17-12.
But with two converted tries in the opening stages of the second half, Leinster got their bonus point, and although they held a nine point lead, were never fully in charge.
Steenson reduced the deficit with a penalty on 69 minutes, and as Exeter sought the try which could have earned a home win, replacement flanker Tom White was yellow carded, and Sexton scored from the penalty to restore the nine point advantage for the visitors.
Although both sides were down to 14 men with the yellow carding of Isaac Boss three minutes from the end of the game, Leinster held on for the win, but now await for Sunday's result at Thomond Park to find out if they qualify for the Heineken Cup quarter-finals.
The scorers:
For Exeter:
Tries: Clark, Penalty
Con: Steenson 2
Pen: Steenson 2
For Leinster:
Tries: D'Arcy, Kearney, O'Driscoll, Heaslip
Con: Sexton 3
Pen: Sexton
Exeter Chiefs: 15 Luke Arscott, 14 Ian Whitten, 13 Sireli Naqelevuki, 12 Jason Shoemark, 11 Matt Jess, 10 Gareth Steenson, 9 Kevin Barrett, 8 Richard Baxter, 7 James Scaysbrook, 6 Tom Johnson, 5 Dean Mumm, 4 Tom Hayes (c), 3 Hoani Tui, 2 Neil Clark, 1 Ben Moon.

Petrikin of Nashville included many unique features and design ideas that personalize the space. The island base resembles a grouping of individual pieces of Country French furniture. It's large enough to function as the center of many family activities. "The island serves various purposes from homework to workspace, as well as serving and eating space," Jenney says. Beautifully adorned with raised carvings, the island houses an under-counter refrigerator, freezer, and warming drawers, as well as abundant storage areas.

|In response to Re: Worn Flange
: To install new flooring, I removed the toilet. Once I lifted the toilet, I noticed the flange was cracked. But, thinking it was fine, I simply re-installed the toilet. However, the toilet leaks now from the bottom constantly.
: I am going to remove the toilet again tonight, and plan on replacing the flange. Are these often glued down? Are they generally glued to the floor or to another piece of PVC? If they are glued to PVC, is there anything I should be concerned with when cutting through the old PVC and hooking up to the new PVC??
: Thanks in advance for your help. A simple project

Bank CEOs, Inside Debt Compensation, and the Global Financial Crisis
Frederick Tung
Boston University School of Law
Xue Wang
Ohio State University - Fisher College of Business
December 11, 2012
Boston Univ. School of Law Working Paper No. 11-49
Bank executives' compensation has been widely identified as a culprit in the Global Financial Crisis, and reform of banker pay is high on the public policy agenda. While Congress targeted its reforms primarily at bankers' equity-based pay incentives, empirical research fails to show any correlation between bank CEO equity incentives and bank performance in the Financial Crisis. We offer an alternative analysis, hypothesizing that bank CEOs' inside debt incentives correlate with reduced bank risk taking and improved bank performance in the Crisis. A nascent literature shows that inside debt may dampen CEOs' risk taking incentives. Unlike the industrial firms that have been the main focus of this literature, however, banks are subject to pervasive regulatory oversight to constrain risk taking. Therefore, the transmission of risk taking incentives through executive pay structure may not be straightforward and cannot be taken for granted. Nevertheless, we find evidence consistent with our hypotheses. Our empirical evidence provides a rationale for the use of inside debt compensation in structuring executive compensation in the banking context.

Considerations for Automation Integration
Automated machining systems have become a key component of the success of North American automotive manufacturing. The flexibility afforded by automation enables automakers to meet a variety of unique production requirements, reduce manual labor and maximize the productivity and efficiency of machining technologies. However, despite its numerous advantages, the complexity of a fully automated manufacturing system can be an intimidating and exhausting project for even the largest companies to tackle on their own.
To overcome the challenges associated with investments in automation, automotive manufacturers should rely on experienced suppliers to help lead them through the necessary considerations for a seamless integration. These partnerships enable companies to develop a customized automation solution, specifically suited to their unique production requirements, while keeping internal engineering resources engaged in other areas of operation that are most critical to maintaining peak ROI and customer satisfaction.
Makino Engineering and Integration Services has a long-standing history of supporting automotive manufacturers in their pursuit of automation and process optimization. By partnering with Makino, companies benefit from decades of experience in full automation engineering services and a single point of contact for all project management, project engineering, site supervision and post-installation support, ensuring the most efficient and detail-oriented planning, development and installation of any multi-vendor project. With Makino Integration Services, automotive manufacturers can expect long-term performance, quality and reliability that enable them to confidently quote new orders and win.

Topic: Race Relations and NAACP; Barack Obamas Socialist Agenda; and Death of Abortionist George Tiller.
Hour 3: OPEN LINES
See you in the morning for a great show...
thanks...and please bump the show everyone. We need help in making this show grow alot.
Good morning Fabian, engineer of the radio show. Jesse is back after being out since last Thursday. Fabian tells me the interruptions in reception are due to the broadcast station and not to his excellent engineering.
This morning's first guest is Karen England. But Jesse is going to talk first. He is talking about the Pachyderm Group (?) in Idaho the real, real conservative group that invited him to speak to them. Talking about how suffering makes you come back stronger. Maybe the conservatives will do just that
Non Profit, government at all legislatures. www.capitolresource.org
June is gay transgender month! So says Obama. Jesse asks why are the gays winning over so many traditional people. Per Karen, they have no families and dedicate their time to pushing their agenda on the nation.
Talking about curriculum in Alameda County talking about forcing elementary school children to learn about transgenderism, homosexuality. The children cannot opt out of class, they are not at all tolerant.
Jesse asks why can't Christians take their children out of school altogether. Karen says that some people can't for various reasons, and she doesn't want to leave the other children in that environment, let alone see her tax dollars spent on that.
Talking about teaching transgenderism in the schools...it seems to me that very soon pedophilia will be taught in schools. Keywords, "Caring schools", "safe schools", "anti-harassment", Watch out for these types of words. Call Capitol Resources if you have any questions or problems.
Every year they are trying to pass a law saying the schools have to notify parents when they teach sexual education. Hasn't worked so far, but they keep trying.
Karen encourages taxpayers to find out what is going on in your school district. Next Live Simucast with Craig Anderson.
Lines are open, 888 775-3773...everybody and their mama should get involved and speak up...
This should be good, Craig Anderson is going to interview Jesse.......
Hi abigail, I'm so glad to know that this is Gay Pride Month! They do have alot of pride and that goes before their fall...I hope.
Craig asks does Jesse sees any Republican politician who will speak up...Jesse says Cheney and Limbaugh are the only ones now, aside from conservative broadcasters.
Has he ever had the opportunity to sit down with Obama? Jesse says they have asked for it but have not been allowed. He says Obama is not a Christian, O says America is not a Christian Nation.
Craig has one of his listeners that wants to talk to Jesse. He asks Jesse, what does he mean "Pres. O is Godless"? He says that he is not a strong Christian,and he loves his wife but what does Jesse mean.
Jesse says that Obama supports abortion at ANY point, he proclaimed this Gay and Transgender PRide month....what is Godly about that? Seems Michelle is his god...
Caller, what do you say to an african American who voted for O. Jesse says that they don't believe IN God, they just believe that there is a God. Caller disagrees. Says we are a Christian Nation, and God is in control. Jesse says that there is nothing about the black community that suggests they believe in God. Totally immoral, etc.
New caller points out that black community does not even believe what Martin Luther King believed. Everything is the color of your skin today.
Nice man calls in who agrees with Jesse. He is older black man.
Now Jesse is having open lines, he is thanking black people for screwing up a country. For voting for a godless man. He is saying we are in REAL TROUBLE, worse than thought, because he is openly courting muslims, bowing to them, saying that we are a muslim nation, not a Christian nation! (my comment, not Jesse's). Who's stopping him?
Ted called in to tell Jesse that Cheney on Greta Van Susterns show, said his daughter was in a committed relationship and he wishes she would get into politics someday. Ted was outraged and disappointed. Jesse said he was wrong, but still he was doing good about the other stuff.
It's voices, such as Rev. Peteron's, that are much needed these days for that very reason. People are attacked as being racist for having policy differences and the MSM plays along with the same tune.
Talking about whether Jesus was a black man, Jesse is saying even if it was true, blacks would use it to puff up their egos....
Good morning abigail...
I missed it... :(
Good morning...i know you missed it, you missed some fun. Happy Gay and Transgender Pride Day!
Oh my, how could I have missed...Happy Gay and Transgender Pride Day?
o my, that's funny...
Les Kinsolving coming up this morning from world net daily...he will be on at the 7am hour pacific time. He is a good reported and will be talking about the latest on the fact that Obama is a phoney president due to him not providing a true American born birth certificate. This matters ALOT! If he can get away with this basic thing, then there will be many other illegal things that he will definelty try and get away with...no doubt about it. In other words, Obama's socialist "loving" agenda is above our constitution...that is the bottom line.

Northampton picked up a priceless victory on the road on Saturday as they beat Worcester Warriors 27-18, boosting their play-off hopes.
Northampton picked up a vital Aviva Premiership victory on the road as they beat Worcester 27-18 at Sixways.
Neither side was in strong league form, and both had found tries hard to come by in recent weeks. It came as no surprise, then, when all of the points scored in the first half came from penalties.
A quickfire brace from Andy Goode within the first ten minutes put Worcester six points up, but the hosts' indiscipline cost them their lead in the minutes that followed, as Stephen Myler snatched the advantage for his side with a trio of penalties.
A second quickfire brace from Goode within the next ten minutes put Northampton three points ahead, but, though Dylan Hartley was then sin-binned, the hosts were unable to add to their lead.
With just three points between the two teams, the tie remained finely poised at the start of the second half, and Myler's fourth penalty of the game just two minutes after the restart put the teams back on level terms.
Myler then edged his side in front on 54 minutes with his fifth penalty of the day, and, though indiscipline once again cost them their lead, as Goode levelled, Samu Manoa's try from the maul with less than 15 minutes remaining provided the breakthrough the visitors needed.
The conversion was missed, but even though the irrepressible Goode was again on the spot to capitalise on more Northampton indiscipline to shave the deficit down to two, a Saints penalty try, converted by Myler, settled the ding-dong battle four minutes from time.
The scorers:
For Worcester:
Pen: Goode 6
For Northampton:
Tries: Manoa, Penalty
Con: Myler
Pen: Myler 5
Worcester: 15 Errie Claassens, 14 Josh Drauniniu, 13 Alex Grove, 12 Jon Clarke, 11 David Lemi, 10 Andy Goode, 9 Jonny Arr, 8 Matt Kvesic. 7 Sam Betty, 6 Neil Best, 5 Dean Schofield, 4 James Percival (c), 3 Euan Murray, 2 Aleki Lutui, 1 Matt Mullan.

Ferron has been experiencing difficulties with their power lately. Distribution manager Dale Robertson from Rocky Mountain Power said, "The Ferron area has experienced three substantial outages during the past several weeks, and we want to apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced. In addition, we want to provide you with a better understanding of what happened and the work currently under way to improve the reliability of your electric service.
"On June 9, a piece of equipment in the Ferron substation failed causing the first outage. It was repaired and service was restored.
"On July 29, a squirrel entered the Ferron substation and caused damage to some of the equipment, which was repaired and service was restored.
"On August 1, a transformer in the Ferron substation failed. As the transformer began to fail, Rocky Mountain Power personnel worked with the local sheriff's office in an attempt to provide as much notice to our customers as possible regarding the impending outage.
"A portable substation was immediately transported to Ferron and crews worked through the night in order to restore service.
"This portable substation is only a temporary fix until a new transformer can be installed.
"When the new transformer arrives, Rocky Mountain Power workers will install it in the substation and schedule a planned interruption to safely complete the transfer of service to the new equipment. We will work closely with your community leaders and will contact you to provide you with notice in advance and the expected duration of the planned outage.
"We appreciate your continued patience as we work to repair and improve the facilities serving your area. Two-way communication with our customers is vital to our success," said Robertson.
Please feel free to contact Autumn Braithwaite with questions. She may be reached toll free at 1-800-532-1626, extension 2434 or by email at email@example.com.
On Aug. 15, a new transformer will arrive at the Ferron substation and the old transformer will be removed. There was not an outage associated with this work. In the meantime, the portable substation continues to provide service to Ferron customers. Additional work on the new transformer will be done by Rocky Mountain Power personnel in preparation for complete installation at the substation. Once the preliminary work is completed, Rocky Mountain Power will schedule a planned outage to transfer service from the portable substation to the new transformer. Rocky Mountain Power will provide written notice to Ferron customers regarding the time and duration of the planned outage.

A Backhoe loader is a tractor like vehicle comprising of a backhoe at the rear and a front loader at the other end. There is a swivelling seat that enables the operator to face whichever way he needs accordingly. The replaceable bucket comes with multiple attachments for specific jobs, for example a breaker attachment for demolish concrete. For a number of large construction needs Backhoe Loaders are considered the go to machine.
available dig depths
There are not great differences in size from one backhoe to the next. Of all heavy machinery, backhoes vary the least in size from one model to the next. While there are front-end loaders and excavators -- even skidsteers -- that are monstrous in relation to other machines in the same class, there are not incredibly large backhoes nor mini-backhoes.
Renting a backhoe is a good option if a person has a variety of jobs on a site to accomplish, but a limited number of machines. An operator can dig a trench for pipe (sewer, water or gas), for utilities or an operator can dig trench for a drainage system or irrigation. An operator can also use the bucket on the back to dig a foundation or a basement. The bucket on the front end can quickly scoop up spoils and put them in a pile or load them in the back of a dump truck or end or side dump tandem. The front bucket is also ideal for flattening or forming an area within a jobsite. A backhoe can do anything a loader or excavator can do, but on a smaller scale.

I can't wait for the season to start.
While he was slogging through stop-and-go traffic at the entrance to the Lincoln Tunnel, the car next to him was violently rear-ended. The quarterback threw his car into park, hopped out and ran to the woman whose car had been hit. She was wearing, of all things, an Esiason jersey, and was utterly shocked when he tapped on her window to check on her.
"Are you OK?" he said, trying to keep calm. "Are you OK?"
"Boomer? Is that you?" she asked the Good Samaritan, sounding disoriented. "I think I'm OK, but . ... "
But what?
"But you guys sucked."

And the Best QB from the 2009 draft (that also can make all the throws) according to Simms...
Both understand the position better then the regular analysts since they played it and played it well..
Who's better then us?

Well thank you, im a lil scared that you know exactly who I am when I havent given out my name, I am even more impressed you know what I have done, so I will appreciate the compliment and ignore the creepiness.
And I am proud of RBC and Donnie Brown. It is a good day to be a Casey.
And look, Im not gunna try to rip down Sanchez anymore, least not before he plays a down in the nfl, because its pointless. I dont like the pick, at all, but hes now the QB of my team and I obviously want him to succeed because i want the Jets to win. I may not think he is capable of doing it but that doesnt mean im not praying and hoping that Sanchez turns out to be good, for what we paid for him i REALLY hope he does good because this will make or brake the Jets for a decade.
so as much as it hurts to see a guy I dont like leading my team, i gotta accept it cus its still my beloved team and Sanchez's success is the only thing that will make me happy because if the qb isnt successful, your team isnt winning the Super bowl.
That said, i still dont trust Phil Simms commentating, Yes he won a super bowl at qb, but everytime he opens his mouth on Sunday while analyzing the game is plain dumb. Phil Simms is not a quality commentater and as much as I respect what he did as a player, i do not respect him as an analyst. Maybe he knows the game but just cant communicate it well to other people, but w.e the reason is, he downright sux at commentating.
Therefore this was an attack on Phil Simms the COMMENTATOR, not Sanchez.

HAHAH, yea ok, i dont even play qb, im not jelous of a guy who gets drafted and millions of dollars. good for him. If i was like that though id be jelous of most professional atheletes and thats just a sad sad existence. Im fine being me thanx.
jeez, and i thought toolcake was the most idiotic, 2nd grade level insult, well congrats u proved me wrong haha.
Posted 27 April 2009 - 12:21 PM
jeez, and i thought toolcake was the most idiotic, 2nd grade level insult, well congrats u proved me wrong haha.
please don't take that as an insult - I'm just s*****n with ya
Posted 27 April 2009 - 12:27 PM
lol ok buddy, u gotta understand though, with guy callin me toolcake up there kinda hard to see whos joking and whose just upset. know what i mean?
Posted 27 April 2009 - 12:44 PM
no probs - I was a bit worried about the Sanchez trade until I found out we only really gave away a mid 2nd to move up. I was convinced we had given up our 1st next year as well. Lets see how this pans out. Hopefully our best QB drafted since O'Brien & maybe our best ever
Posted 27 April 2009 - 12:47 PM
Yea im hoping too bro.
Posted 27 April 2009 - 12:59 PM
watchout blazers, your ignorance is showing. not surprised based on the quality of yr posts, or lack there of, that you have no concept of anything good.
And although u arent worth a response to how GREAT RBC is, im gunna throw some stuff down yr throat anyway so the people who arent from the Shore dont get the wrong idead because they listen to one thing u said.
Lets see
-Former NFL Players
-Head Coach of Temple's football team
-Donnie Brown, 1st round draft pick by a team only a few years removed from a Super Bowl
-COUNTLESS womens basketball championships including a 31-0 record in 2001 and rated by MSG the -best team in the Tri state area
-Football State titles, division titles while i was there, Parochial division titles
- A famous American Idol contestant, for multiple reasons ahah
-Dominate womens soccer and field hockey programs that win state titles year in and year out
-Baseball prospect in the Boston Red Sox organization, drafted straight out of RBC
-over 120 years of excellence in education
-the list goes on
Oh and our football team was ranked #1 in the entire Shore Conference at the end of this year.
so um, dont talk about anything you OBVIOUSLY have no clue about, and i dont like Manasquan but they have plenty of state championships throughout their history so they are more than respectable program that churned out players Like Frost who started his freshman year at OT at Rutgers and Mike Melee who started at lb at Sarycuse last year. So im not promoting Manasquan, but to say they are a bad program is more than idiotic, just look at their banner with all their football state titles and ud know that.
So yea, you have no clue what yr talkin about buddy, but nice try. Dont mess with the Caseys. So the answer is you KNOW NOTHING!

Poll: Most NY Voters Oppose Lawmakers Pay Hike
Please enter your comments below.
Leave it to NYer's
Despite the current economic conditions that exists in NY and the country, leave it to NYer's to think Cuomo is doing a good job. Yet at the same time they say he is acting like a king and is out of touch with the common folks. He's doing about the same as the resident-in-chief, just more slowly, but with the ultimate end result -- bankruptcy. We cannot tax our way to financial stability if the fundamental reasons (spending) aren't resolved first. Neither can we accomplish this if we first drive the wealthy out of the state, or strip them of the incentives needed for them to invest and spur development. As a state, and a nation, our continued dependency upon govt to provide handouts and bribes to buy our votes has and will continue to lead us on this path to ruin.
Gillibrand Won't Get MY Vote
In 2009 the Senate voted to cut off giving taxpayer dollars to ACORN. The vote was 83-7. OUR Senator Gillibrand was one of the seven who voted to continue giving ACORN money saying, "the group does good work". And I thought Schumer was hopeless.
this is just sick
its a part time job with over a million dollars per for their office and staff for what they do nothing
LOL! Hey WBEN this is the kind of audience you get when you lie to them each and every day. How come you haven't mentioned the recent good news about the job figures? At least you could make something up like Fox "News" did.
No raises and Cuomo is a wolf in sheeps clothing
No raises for part time libs in albany. Cuomo looks like he cares so far but I believe he is like his father, a bleeding heart liberal. He will end up taxing New Yorkers to death.
Sick of it
In the private sector a person's compensation is tied to performance. Performance is linked to accomplishments, both good and bad. The question needs to be asked; "Is our current condition better or worse or the same as when these people were elected and took office?" If our current condition is worse, the people in power should be replaced by someone else that we feel is able to handle the challenges that we are faced with. If our current condition is about the same, the compensation should remain the same. Why should people that are just doing an 'adequate' job be rewarded with additional compensation? If our current condition is better than what would be expected in the current economic conditions, they should be rewarded with additional compensation of some sort. The problem with rewarding an exceptional person doing a better than average job in the public sector is that all persons coming after the exceptional person will receive the same rewards that the exceptional person did. The method of compensation needs to start at a low level for newly elected officials and then reviewed yearly and raises voted on by the electorate they represent. This would make the people we elect more responsible to the people in their district and would bring up their records more frequently so we can view their accomplishments for their district. Just handing more benefits or currency to people that are just adequate is not 'fair' to all of us that have to be exceptional in order to bet a raise.

The SYAE Podcast: Gettin' Geeky With Cam Charron
Dimitri Filipovic
November 07 2012 09:37AM
Numbers are not something that you should be afraid of. Here at Canucks Army, we pride ourselves on our ability to use underlying statistics in conjuction with the "eye test" in an attempt to most effectively understand what we're seeing on the ice. Despite what your days in high school and university may have left you believing, numbers are your friend. There's no reason to fear them.
In this edition of the podcast, Cam Charron and I discuss a medley of topics surrounding the Vancouver Canucks while dabbling in advanced stats to reinforce our point of view. We take an in-depth look at the Sedins and whether they have or haven't shown signs of decline, and potential returns for Roberto Luongo in a trade involving the Toronto Maple Leafs. We also discuss Chris Tanev and Dylan Reese, which should have been expected.

Love this wedge
"I've owned this wedge since the spring. I saw it in store and had to have it - the Navy blue makes it somewhat of a neutral and the adorable pattern adds a very cute aspect to outfits. The price was great too! When I wear them (they look great with dresses, shorts jeans) I get compliments from everyone (men as well as women). They are also one of the most comfortable wedges that I own."

Bruno Mars Named Billboard Artist of the Year [PHOTO]
Somewhere Kanye West is going on an epic rant about this: Bruno Mars has been named Billboard magazine's Artist of the Year.
We guess Yeezy was right: Bruno does win all the f**king awards! Top Pop Radio Artist, Teen Choice Awards, VMAs, EMAs and now he's hit the No. 1 spot on Billboard's list of 2013's top artists.
As for Bruno's own reaction to the honor, he joked, "What makes you Artist of the Year? Can we throw 'Best Jump Shot' in there?"
So how did Mars dominate the year and become the first male since 2008 to take the title? "He grabbed hold of the album and single charts and never let go," the writer states in its cover story. His latest album, 'Unorthodox Jukebox,' hit No. 1 and appeared in the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 for more than nine months.
The album featured three Top 10 singles: 'Treasure,' 'Locked Out of Heaven' and 'When I Was Your Man.' The latter two tunes also topped the singles chart. Social, ringtone and tour receipts were also included in the data leading to the list.
Regardless of all the awards, Bruno is keeping things in perspective. "My dream was to not get a day job but to sleep, wake up and do my music," he says. "And hopefully, my music does all the talking. I want to keep that dream forever. That's it. That's what I love to do."
BTW, if you're looking for Kanye on the list, you'll find him dead last, at No. 100.

The corporate campus for PepsiCo, designed by Edward Durell Stone, has served as the company's world headquarters since their move to the suburbs in 1967. After an estimated $243 million dollar renovation beginning in 2013, and despite company-wide downsizing, the campus continues to exist as it was originally designed despite the national trend of corporations moving back to city-centers.
The article below examines the events surrounding Pepsi's decision to move from its New York City headquarters and the influences that defined Stone's iconic design. A version of this article originally appeared on Smithsonian.com (September 2013)
During the Docomomo US National Symposium in Detroit this past week, attendees had the unique opportunity to visit the General Motors Technical Center in Warren, Michigan. Hosted by General Motors and the Michigan State Historic Preservation Office, the tour not only allowed us to see the incredible architecture and design of Saarinen's corporate masterpiece but also showed the care and stewardship as the complex continues to age.
The excerpt below takes a look back at the vision that both Eero Saarinen and Harley Earl had for General Motors and how it redefined the image and perception of what the corporate campus could and should be.
By Gwendolyn Horton
After being abandoned in 2007, the preservation and use for Saarinen's Bell Labs in Holmdel, New Jersey has been a reoccuring topic of discussion over recent years. Purchased by Somerset Development in 2013, the vision of Ralph Zucker, President of Somerset Development to reinvent the space as a "New Urbanist Hub" has begun to be realized.
Docomomo US has been made aware of a looming threat to Paul Rudolph's Blue Cross/Blue Shield building (1960) in Boston. The city is considering five proposals from firms to develop a prominant site next to the Blue Cross/Blue Shield building. Four out of the five proposals pose no threat to the Rudolph designed building and one proposal is unclear of its effects on the building. The proposal from developer Trans National plans to demolish the building during the second phase of construction. Candidates will be interviewed in the beginning of June. Docomomo US and Docomomo US/New England are monitoring the situation as it unfolds.

For several years members of the Atlanta/Fulton County Library Authority, the agency responsible for area library service, have proposed abandoning its Central Library, Marcel Breuer's last built project before his death, for a new "iconic" library. The structure is similar in character to the recently restored and adapted Met Breuer, the former Whitney Museum in Manhattan. The stated justification for this proposal is one part criticism of Brutalist architecture and one part failure to maintain the relevancy of the library system in a time when the primacy of the printed book is being called in to question by a plethora of digital offerings.
On March 1, People for the Pavilion and the National Trust for Historic Preservation launched the New York State Pavilion Ideas Competition, an "anything goes" approach to radically reimagine one of New York City's most iconic buildings and a defining landmark of Queens.

Public sculpture in New Jersey is plentiful (numbering over seven hundred pieces statewide), with works by significant artists that tell many fascinating stories about our history, our values, and our aspirations. Generally, the sculpture created for placement in the public realm in New Jersey and beyond during the 19th and 20th centuries was always more stylistically conservative than sculpture created for broad artistic purposes, even within the oeuvre of a single artist. During the Modern era, this continued to be the case, with most works produced in a representational rather than abstract style.
By Eli Pousson, Director of Preservation and Outreach for Baltimore Heritage, with contributions from Ryan Patterson, Public Art Administration for the Baltimore Office of Promotion & the Arts.
Baltimore's public schools are home to over 120 public art commissions—most of these works tied to a local boom in school building construction during the 1960s and 1970s. While some are the work of nationally known modern artists and designers, like Michio Ihara, Gyorgy Kepes, and Harry Bertoia, others are the work of artists, architects and designers with a regional practice or local following; some of whom had few commissions outside of Baltimore, or no public work outside of these midcentury school buildings.
The Docomomo US Board of Directors is pleased to welcome two new members to the board: Todd Grover and Christopher Barley.

The Noguchi Museum
Detroit's first ideas for a vast urban plaza at the terminus of Woodward Avenue and fronting on the Detroit River were laid in 1924, when the Detroit branch of the American Institute of Architects commissioned Eliel Saarinen to design it. The project was never fully realized. Perhaps Isamu Noguchi knew of this history when he responded to the invitation by the City of Detroit to submit plans for the Horace E. Dodge & Son Fountain at that same location just shy of fifty years later.

Louis I. Kahn's Alfred Newton Richards Medical Research Laboratory (Richards Building) at the University of Pennsylvania holds a unique place in the history of 20th century culture as one of the most influential buildings of the post-war era. Designed 1957-58 and completed in 1961, the Richards Building received international attention for its design before it was even completed, garnering a solo exhibition of the design at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, but its considerable functional shortcomings have been the target of much venom for over fifty years.
By Peter Meijer, Docomomo US/Oregon
At the Docomomo US, Modern Matters, conference April 2013 in Sarasota, Florida, Docomomo US/Oregon presented a debate on the merits of Michael Graves Portland Building and on the larger context of Post Modernism in general. A lively debate at the end of the presentation centered on the merits of Docomomo incorporating Post Modern under the mission of the organization. In general, the support, or lack of support, for an expanded interpretation separated into two distinct viewpoints.

The twentieth century witnessed an explosion of new materials and assemblies for construction. Avant-garde architects who subscribed to the tenets of Modernism embraced reinforced concrete and glass to create remarkable new buildings. If concrete and glass were the first two critical material legs of the stool for Modern architecture, metals were the important third leg.
By Christa J. Gaffigan, AIA, LEED-AP BD+C and Anne E. Weber, FAIA, FAPT
Concrete block developed in the early 20th century as an inexpensive yet durable material for vernacular construction. It was used extensively in industrial and commercial construction, and was also marketed heavily for agricultural and residential construction. By the 1950s, block was in wide use for schools and similar structures, and was available in many sizes, face finishes, and shapes.

A series of fortunate events in the late 1960s lead Investors Diversified Services (IDS), Inc. to commission architect Philip Johnson to create a new interpretation of the glass skyscraper to serve as the company's headquarters. The result is a property (we always say that IDS Center is more than just a building!) that has become a symbol of the region, but is also a story where persistent and thoughtful maintenance has sustained the iconic curtain wall.

As a spring awakening is upon us, the Philadelphia chapter of Docomomo US is also experiencing a re-awakening with new and exciting Spring and Fall events, active social media updates, and a new web presence.

Mrs Jane Lindsay (1848–1932) was the mother of the artists and writers Percy, Lionel, Norman, Ruby and Daryl Lindsay. She is described by her son Daryl as having 'a strong sense of character and an amazing fund of sheer common sense. She could cope with anything' (Lindsay 1965, p.14).
Lambert spent three days making this drawing, creating a remarkable portrait which captures the strong but kindly personality of this eighty-three-year-old woman. He depicted her with her head tilted forward, looking thoughtfully into the distance with a gentle but determined smile. She may be wearing glasses, but her eyes are still full of life. She wears some of her treasured jewels around her neck. The juxtaposition of line and delicate soft tones give the subject a sculptural solidity.
Daryl Lindsay wrote to Lambert on 6 December 1929 expressing his gratitude, both at owning one of his drawings and in having a drawing of his mother, which gave him 'the greatest joy to behold' (ML MSS 97/3, pp.139–41). He appreciated that it was 'a charming drawing', and quite 'unstrained' in effect (Lambert 1930).

A four-try first-half blitz from Northampton Saints saw them run out comfortable 28-14 victors over Sale Sharks on Thursday.
A four-try first-half blitz from Northampton Saints saw them run out comfortable 28-14 victors over Sale Sharks on Thursday, reaching the Challenge Cup semi-final.
Tries from Sam Dickinson, Ben Foden, and a brace from openside Ben Nutley – all converted by Will Hooley – were enough to see off a late Sharks rally.
It was the hosts, however, who struck first, with highly-rated prop Henry Thomas crashing over from close range early on, and Nick Macleod adding the extras.
The lead proved to be short-lived, as Nutley hit back off an unstoppable Saints maul minutes later, falling over the line for one of the easiest finishes you're likely to see in professional rugby. Hooley, bouncing back well from a disappointing display against Leicester Tigers last week, slotted the conversion.
There followed a disastrous twelve minute period for the hosts, whose pack were being outplayed and out-driven by the Saints eight. Dickinson powered over for try number two just before the half hour mark, before Hooley's deft grubber into the in-goal area was grounded by the onrushing Foden.
Thomas saw the flash of Romain Poite's yellow card as he infringed once too many at scrum-time, and things were to get yet worse for Steve Diamond's men as Nutley flopped over for what was almost a carbon copy of his first try.
Sale battled admirably in the second half, but failed to muster much in the way of meaningful attack. Viliami Fahiki was at the heart of the Sharks' drive, giving a frustrated home crowd hope of a comeback, but even the impressive James Craig's sin-binning late on could not yield further points for their side.
The Saints do indeed go marching on, as they secure a home semi-final and another potential shot at silverware against either Stade Français or Harlequins.
The scorers:
For Sale:
Tries: Thomas, Fahiki
Cons: Macleod, Ford
Yellow card: Thomas (repeated collapse of scrum)
For Northampton:
Tries: Nutley 2, Dickinson, Foden
Cons: Hooley 4
Yellow card: Craig (collapsing maul)
The teams:
Sale Sharks: 15 Tom Arscott, 14 Tom Brady, 13 Andy Forsyth, 12 Mark Jennings, 11 Rob Miller, 10 Nick Macleod, 9 Will Cliff, 8 Viliami Fahiki, 7 Mark Easter, 6 James Gaskell (capt), 5 Kirill Kulemin, 4 Andrei Ostrikov, 3 Henry Thomas, 2 Tommy Taylor, 1 Ross Harrison.
Replacements: 16 Marc Jones, 17 Aston Croall, 18 Tony Buckley, 19 Jonathan Mills, 20 Michael Paterson, 21 Nathan Fowles, 22 Joe Ford, 23 Phil Mackenzie.
Northampton: 15 Ben Foden, 14 Ken Pisi, 13 James Wilson, 12 Tom Stephenson, 11 Fa'atoina Autagavaia, 10 Will Hooley, 9 Lee Dickson, 8 Gerrit-Jan van Velze, 7 Ben Nutley, 6 Phil Dowson (c), 5 James Craig, 4 Sam Dickinson, 3 Tom Mercey, 2 Ross McMillan, 1 Ethan Waller.

Zeltiq for fat reduction on "love handles"
Was this photo helpful? {{ voteCount + ' other' + (voteCountOthers == 1 ? '' : 's') }} found this helpful
40 year old male treated with Zeltiq on flanks, commonly referred to as "love handles". This is after one treatment at our centre and patient's weight is unchanged, so the result you are seeing is from Zeltiq and not from weight loss. This treatment is designed for patients that are either at or close to their ideal weight. Zeltiq is designed for stubborn areas of small areas of fat.

BLM and Boy Scout Troop to clean-up public lands for Earth Day (04-10-13)
MONTE VISTA, Colo. – The Bureau of Land Management's San Luis Valley Field Office is excited to host Boy Scout Troop 286 for a service project to beautify public lands near the San Luis Valley Landfill. Nearly 10 Scouts ranging in ages from 10 to 17 will be camping out and cleaning up the area from April 19 through April 21, coinciding with Earth Day.
Also helping with the project are the San Luis Valley Regional Solid Waste Authority, Brown's Septic Service, Rio Grande National Forest, Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado and Waste Management. Together, the groups will gather and remove trash that has blown from loads headed for the landfill as well as litter that has been dumped on public lands along County Road 44.
"It means a great deal to the BLM that a group like the Boy Scouts is willing to volunteer for us on Earth Day weekend and help clean up our public lands," said Angie Krall, Heritage Program Manager for the SLVFO and the Rio Grande National Forest.
The timing of the clean-up also coincides with the Boy Scout's national Good Deed Week.
"All Scouts are required to do service work for the community as part of their advancement work," said Doug Steward, Troop 286 Scoutmaster. "We schedule several service projects throughout the community and region every year. This project is only one of them."
Steward has been involved with the Boy Scouts of America for nearly 40 years. His expertise in backcountry wilderness camping, hiking and backpacking coupled with his drive to serve his community keep him working on projects like this.
"Everyone should be involved in making our community a better place," said Steward. "I choose to do that by serving in the Boy Scouts of America – they have the best youth activity program going."
The BLM will supply tools, gloves and other support for the Scouts. Waste Management is donating a dumpster, and Brown's Septic Service will be donating a toilet facility for the weekend. The San Luis Valley Landfill will supply a location for the Scouts to legally dump the collected trash.
For more information about the project, please contact Doug Steward email@example.com or 719-580-1268.
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land, the most of any Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. The BLM's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of Americas public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. In Fiscal Year 2015, the BLM generated $4.1 billion in receipts from activities occurring on public lands.

|In response to Re: Can I drain Urinal into clean out on stack?
I guess you just added one more reason why you cannot, or should not do it. Cutting a hole in a plug would not be an acceptable connection.
You can get a bushing but that would not correct the other reasons for not doing it.
: : : I'd like to put a urinal in my basement for occasional use. It seems to me that the easiest way to do this would be to run the drain line into the clean out on the waste stack. This is a fully accessible area and so if I ever need to use the clean out to actually snake the system I can just uncouple the urinal piping and snake away...any reason I can't do this?
: : : Thanks
: Thanks Deb---I think I can overcome the water line and the vent....I have a 3/4 line and can't I use those Oates valves? As far as the threads...couldn't I take a PVC threaded plug, cut a 2" hole in it, and use that as the connection point? Thanks

Ed Chamberlin: Open Meeting
Ed Chamberlin looks ahead to Cheltenham's Open Meeting and the Premier League action in his latest blog.
- Related Content
Jump racing leaps to the fore this weekend with three superb days at Cheltenham. The Open Meeting seems to get bigger and bigger every season and no end of top class horses are set appear this weekend.
Sprinter Sacre is set to be the headline act on Sunday, while Nicky Henderson could unleash another star in the shape of Captain Conan, who I'm told has schooled superbly at home.
The Lambourn handler has an embarrassment of riches for the new season and AP McCoy seems very confident that Darlan can win the Racing Post Hurdle and develop in to a live Champion Hurdle contender.
Henderson looks set to dominate Sunday's card and he could play a major role in Saturday's Paddy Power Gold Cup as well. However, he'll have his work cut out to beat David Pipe's Grands Crus, who is a short price with Sky Bet but will be very hard to beat.
He's not the first high class horse to struggle in the brutal test that is the RSA Chase at the Festival. The upside from that below par performance is an attractive looking handicap mark.
"The Pipes know exactly what's needed to win this race and its demands look tailor-made for Grands Crus. He's no value but I think Grands Crus will probably win and I can see him as a warm order to double up in the Hennessy at Newbury."
The best bet could be to back him for that double before Saturday's race.
Henderson does still have a strong hand to play. Quantitativeeasing (20/1) looks sure to run another big race just as he did last year. I love course specialists round here and Quantitativeeasing's record round Cheltenham is exceptional. The problem might be that he's just carrying too much weight. I think stablemate Triolo d'Alene could be the dark horse in the race.
The stable really fancied him at the Festival but he was too inexperienced in that contest, did not jump well and will have learnt a lot. He jumped a lot better at Market Rasen in May. With a summer under his belt Triolo d'Alene is open to a stack of improvement and I think he's on a tasty mark. He's my each-way bet in the race.
Friday sees entries close for the Racing Post Ten-to-Follow competition, which is always a lot of fun. My main list is as follows - Big Bucks, Boston Bob, Darlan, Grands Crus, Flemenstar, Hurricane Fly, My Tent Or Yours, Simonsig, Sir Des Champs, Sprinter Sacre
Sky Bet's Premier League title odds: Evens Man Utd, 2/1 Man City, 7/2 Chelsea, 40/1 Arsenal, 100/1 Tottenham, 150/1 Everton, 150/1 Liverpool, 750/1 Newcastle
The Manchester clubs have character in abundance. Both dug out results yet again at the weekend and the difference between City and United and the other challengers at the moment is their ability to win when they aren't playing well.
- Premier League
- last updated 11/11 17:57
Both fell behind at the weekend but have an incredible belief that they will still go on to win and there was an inevitability about both results. As a result Sky Bet shortened up Manchester United to even money from 6/5, though City are unchanged at 2/1.
Chelsea lacked that killer instinct against Liverpool and have drifted a fraction to 7/2.
"Once again Hazard, Mata and Oscar showed flashes of genius and they remain an excellent side but I still worry how Roberto Di Matteo is going to juggle his resources with a packed set of fixtures, including a trip to Japan, between now and the end of the year."
Arsenal and Tottenham's odds seem to drift every week and the two meet on Saturday with the pressure bound to be heaped on the losing manager. It's a big game for both sides, though a trappy one for punters (Arsenal 10/11, Tottenham 11/4, draw 13/5) and kicks off Sky Sports' Premier League weekend at midday on Saturday. It's a brave move to back Arsenal at odds on at the moment.
Talking of pressure, arguably the biggest game of the weekend is at Loftus Road as the bottom two meet - QPR (5/6) and Southampton (3/1) .
The two managers head Sky Bet's market for the next Premier League manager to leave their job with Mark Hughes at evens and Nigel Adkins a 7/4 chance.
Tony Fernandes has been outspoken about his manager's future but any speculation about Adkins takes an awful lot of guesswork. It would be easier to predict the first four in the correct order in the Grand National than read Saints' Executive Chairman Nicola Cortese's mind.

On Super Sunday I'll be returning to the venue of the first football match I ever presented on Sky Sports. I shall never forget Fulham v Newcastle in February 2010! This weekend Fulham (4/6) take on Sunderland (4/1), whose form this term is something of a mystery.
Who'd have thought at the start of the season after signing Adam Johnson and Steven Fletcher, to accompany McClean and Sessegnon in attack, that Sunderland would be the Premier League's lowest scorers at this stage with only seven goals?
In contrast, Fulham are the second top scorers with 24 and Dimitar Berbatov has turned out to be an inspired signing. At around £5million he must already be one of the signings of the season and clubs like Liverpool and Arsenal must be thinking 'if only'. His Fulham side are hard to oppose on Sunday.
I'll be staying in London on Sunday night then meeting up with Gary Neville early the next morning at Sky Sports HQ to prepare for the Monday Night Football - West Ham (evens) v Stoke (11/4). I wonder if we'll be looking back on another successful weekend for Manchester.

Saturday March 19,2016 : 101 COMPUTER SETS AND 18 LAPTOPS SEIZED IN LATEST MALAYASIAN ONLINE GAMBLING POLICE RAIDS
Five "repeat offender" outlets hammered in Subang Jaya police actions.
Five known online gambling dens in Subang Jaya, a suburban town in Malaysia, were targeted for the third time in simultaneous police raids Friday, and a further 101 computer sets, 18 laptops and other evidence was seized from operators who clearly have little respect for the law.
Police are hoping that this third attempt to shutter the illegal operations (other raids were carried out in February and March this year) will be successful, with the cooperation of local municipal officials.
A police spokesman revealed that in the two previous raids a total of 177 computers and 30 laptops had been seized, making the operations of this illegal enterprise an expensive proposition for the owners.

Which Upper West Side Personality and 1983 Obama Roommate Needs a Memoir-Writing Assistant?
Blind items! They happen. Especially in Craigslist's depths, where inanity prevails in the form of, among other ways you never wanted to consider possible, job listings. So we want to know: which "highly visable" former Obama roommate needs an assistant?
The listing, preserved here for posterity, goes like this:

ATTN: I'm getting a lot of sarcastic emails. Don't bother sharing your wit with me: it's been done. And done. This is an UNPAID internship intended for a STUDENT and is a RESEARCH position that will give him experience and position on a prestige project. If you can't afford to work in a role that offers credit only, but no renumeration, this isn't for you. If you're the sort of person who has the spare time to respond sarcastically to Craigslist postings, this REALLY isn't for you. Thanks.
I'm working on a memoir, set in 1983, when I lived with Obama for a year.
The memoir is about my life and about what New York was like in 1983, and how we lived then, but Barack is obviously a player in the story. This is not a tell-all, it's a friendly, gentle and literate book.
I work full time in a highly visible career and would like to work with a research assistant to help me stay focused.
This is you:
You live in Manhattan and can visit the Village frequently.
Your living situation is stable, as is your personal life.

So: who do we have who needs an "intern" who is also in a graduate writing program? Or, otherwise: which Upper West Side asshole friend of Obama's hepcat days is now enough of a square to need an unpaid slave to help write their feeder-fish book and expect to be paid in the form of, maybe, a thank you in a book that has yet to be written on one year of Obama's life?
