Yahoo! Messenger  10.0.0.542 Beta
- Improvements in the webcam detection logic: If you were able to use your webcam on 9.0 or other IM programs, but not on Yahoo! Messenger 10, this fix should take care of the issue.
- Explanation for grayed-out video call button: If your video call button is grayed-out when you're IM'ing with a friend, it's because they're on an older version of Yahoo! Messenger. In order to receive your video call, they also need to upgrade to Yahoo! Messenger 10 Beta. To help reduce confusion about this, we added an inline message explaining this.
- Smoother handling of unanswered calls: When you make a call to a friend but they don't answer within 20 seconds, the call is automatically terminated. Previously there was no messaging about this, so we added one to let you know that your friend did not answer your call.
- Better explanation for downgraded video calls: In the event your internet connection can no longer support the full video call (e.g. video + voice), the conversation gets downgraded to a voice-only call. When this happens, the video picture disappears. This is the correct behavior, but we added some inline messaging so you'll know when and why it's happening.

Cute, Versatile, Pretty Comfortable
"So to start, I have wide feet and it's pretty often the case that my shoes are too narrow. The width of these shoes is probably typical of the sling-back style. It is a little narrow, but it does not affect the comfort too much. I have yet to wear them for an extended period of time. The style definitely goes with formal and less formal wear, which is great!"

The blades kick up a bubble trail fish can't resist and put off an instant squeaking that drives them crazy.

Customer Reviews
Comments: Love these. Catches fish anywhere I go. Only problem is after a few trips out the lower loop-tab on the blade snaps off from the force while sliding back and forth during casting. The metal tears until the tab falls off, and they're toast after that. Essentially buying a throw away, but worth it for the $.
From: Gleb: IN 9/13/16
Comments: Best buzzbait on the market I fish about 3 times a week. I fish the same buzzbait every time I go. they are very durable I catch numerous amounts of fish on one buzzbait. My rating is a 9 for this buzzbait
From: Nick: TN 8/30/16
Comments: This is the only buzz I throw. Great skirt, really awesome hook & the prop squeeks out of the box. I will say the light one doesn't always run true but it wants run a bit horizontal. That being said, it still catches fish.
From: Justin: Noblesville, IN 6/21/16
Comments: This is a good buzz bait. I fish three to four times a week & throw a lot of buzz baits first & last light. War Eagle, Accent Lures and Greenfish are my go to buzz baits.
From: Danny: Versailles, KY 6/24/15
Comments: I want to like this bb so badly, but I can't get mine to run straight!! I got four of them and all of them are a wee bit out of tune. I KNOW the wire is in line with the hook but I've tried everything to adjust it so it's not up on its side/tracking wrong. I still catch fish with them though. I'll try a few more before I decide if they will stay in my arsenal.
From: Chris: ME 9/16/14
Comments: I really like these buzzbaits. The larger prop gets it up on plane fast and allows you to fish slower when needed. They seem to hold up well. No complaints at all. I will definitely buy more.
From: Michael: GA 8/8/14
Comments: This is the best buzzbait on the market in my opinion. Won a tournament, came all the way from last place throwing a black one all day.
From: Tristen: Fort Worth, TX, USA
Comments: Hands down the best buzzbait i have ever used.
From: Chad: Atlanta, GA
Comments: All I have to say is you better get more than one!!! Thats why I'm ordering 2 more. Mouse is the best color in my tacklebox these days.
From: Sawyer: Southern KY
Comments: Great buzzbait! The quality of these is crazy good, they compare to any 10$+ buzz out there. You can fish these slower than most due to the large blade. Fish love them, These are soley my favorite for bass. Also took them on a trip to the Tequamenon River in the Upper peninsula for muskie and pike, trolled them for 5 days straight and they got crushed by almost 50 fish up to 42" long, including 17 muskies on one! Every single one held up, the paint didnt even chip, and they still work for bass season. Simply Awesome lures.
From: Cobi: MI
Comments: Great buzzbait with a great price. Nothing to complain about at all.
From: Mike: Jackson, MO
Comments: I used this buzzbait during the golden hour after sunset on the Potomac and I hooked a some good quality fish to include my biggest fish of the day. The hooks are incredibly sharp and it make alot of noise, put a tralier hook on it and hang on, the strikes are vicious. I highly recommend it.
From: Sal: C-Ville, VA
Comments:Absolutely one of the best buzzbaits I have ever used. The large blade starts quickly and the squeal is just right out of the box.

The Cheetahs booked their place in the Super Rugby play-offs on Saturday with a 34-13 win over the Blues at Free State Stadium.
The Cheetahs booked their place in the Super Rugby play-offs on Saturday with a 34-13 win over the Blues at Free State Stadium.
The Cheetahs will enjoy a bye next weekend, which will take them to 54 points, ensuring they will finish in the top six for the first time in the history of the franchise.
The result also means the Sharks, Blues, Waratahs and Stormers are out of the running to make the knock-out stages.
The Cheetahs dominated possession and territory in the first half and held a deserved 19-10 lead at the interval thanks to a try from number eight Philip van der Walt and a handful of penalties from fly-half Riaan Smit.
Considering they had enjoyed nearly 70 percent of the ball in the first period, the Cheetahs should have been ahead by more than nine points but an excellent try, finished off by Blues scrum-half Jamison Gibson-Park, ensured the visitors were ahead until the quarter-hour mark and still in the mix at the break.
But the Cheetahs scored two tries in the final ten minutes to put the result beyond doubt.
Smit opened the scoring with an early penalty but the Blues were first to cross the whitewash when Peter Saili broke clear before offloading to Gibson-Park, who cruised over.
Baden Kerr's conversion gave the visitors a 7-3 lead but Smit cut the gap to a singe point before van der Walt took advantage of a big scrum from the Cheetahs – who forced a tighhead – breaking off the back and muscling his way over the line.
The Cheetahs made a hash of a number of further opportunities to score and had to rely on Smit's accuracy from the kicking tee for the rest of their points until halftime.
Indeed, the trend of wasted chances due to impatience continued in the second half and the Blues reduced the deficit to six points as Kerr found the target from long range just before the hour mark.
Smit replied in kind though to take the scores to 22-13 going into the final quarter.
The result was secured in the 74th minute when replacement scrum-half Sarel Pretorius scored on the counter attack.
The hosts added a cherry to the cake in the dying moments as Boom Prinsloo touched down after a drive from the Cheetahs forwards.
The scorers:
For Cheetahs:
Tries: van der Walt, Pretorius, Prinsloo
Cons: Smit 2
Pens: Smit 5
For Blues:
Tries: Gibson-Park
Cons: Kerr
Pens: Kerr 2
Cheetahs: 15 Hennie Daniller, 14 Willie le Roux, 13 Johann Sadie, 12 Robert Ebersohn, 11 Raymond Rhule, 10 Riaan Smit, 9 Piet van Zyl, 8 Philip van der Walt, 7 Lappies Labuschagne, 6 Heinrich Brussow, 5 Ligtoring Landman, 4 Lood de Jager, 3 Lourens Adriaanse, 2 Adriaan Strauss (captain), 1 Coenie Oosthuizen

Date: April 1 and 2
Mileage: 27.1 and 30.3
April mileage: 57.4
Temperature upon departure: 31 and 29
Power day at Eaglecrest! I didn't climb up there with the intention of riding the mountain, nor did I really have the time, but I did have the Pugsley, and a clear view of four inches of fresh snow swept over a firm base. Some conditions are just too perfect to resist.
Amazing how five minutes of a swooping, weightless, white-silent powder blast can absorb all the malaise of a 12-hour work day. I'm going to try to get up at 6:30 tomorrow.

Montreal's Excellent Power Play
October 06 2011 11:20PM
Last night on the CBC we got to hear about Montreal's excellent system based play at great length thanks to insightful hockey savant Glenn Healy. I figured I'd do a frame by frame breakdown of the only Montreal power play a goal was scored on in order to demonstrate why the Canadiens are so effective on special teams.
In this first frame you can tell the Habs have a man advantage by the three on two developing in front of their goaltender Carey Price. Personally if I were an NHL coach I would try to generate offense when I had an extra player on the ice but who am I to criticize legendary coach Jacques Martin?
Matthew Lombardi shoots over Brian Gionta or maybe a regular height player who's laying down (it's hard to tell even on replay). Two Habs are in the slot covering nothing and Carey Price is dizzy from the cigarettes.
In this frame a few seconds later the Habs have doubled their defensive zone presence. Dion Phaneuf and Joffrey Lupul have both skated by the puck laying in the crease. Matthew Lombardi has already finished being depressed about wasting a scoring chance when he thinks "but what if nobody at all tried to get that puck?".
Note All Star Goaltender Carey Price laying spread eagle in the net thanks to a MATTHEW LOMBARDI wrist shot. Guess somebody spent their offseason hitting the gym.
In frame three note Mike Komisarek turning to leave the zone as Lombardi roofs it over the still horizontal price. Note P.K. "-2" Subban on his knees covering nobody and the Montreal forward in the top left circling in case Lombardi can't score in an empty net and the puck goes right to him. This is excellent systems based play directly from Martin's playbook.
Finally Jacques Martin's plan comes to fruition. Fans are standing and cheering, there's a spotlight on a Leafs player and Carey Price and people in Montreal bars are trying to hide their loser jerseys as quickly as possible. All according to plan.
I won't spoil the final score for you, and to be polite I'll just say I hope these Leafs can recover from this well run power play to have a chance at skating with the Cup Contender Montreal Canadiens.
October 07 2011, 08:20AM
How does Komisarek get from where he is in Frame 3, to where he is in Frame 4? It boggles the mind.
October 07 2011, 09:13AM
"Dion Phaneuf and Joffrey Lupul have both skated by the puck laying in the crease"
Should read Dion Phanuef and Mike Brown...
But the point still stands. Fantastic Habs PP.
October 07 2011, 10:19AM
Superb breakdown. Insightful analysis. I hope to read more as the season progresses.
October 07 2011, 01:42PM
Oh man look at that poise on PK as he gets caught up ice on the Powerplay and does nothing to prevent the goal at the other end.

Masters Category Age Change for the 2012 Canadian Open
February 27th, 2012
Due to precious feedback from members in the past weeks, the 2012 Canadian Open Competitions Committee reviewed the age restriction for the Masters category. After review, it was decided that it was in the best interest of our adult membership to change the age from 35+ to 45+ for the Masters category at National Championships for 2012. Further discussions will take place after the 2012 Canadian Open regarding further splitting the adult age groups. The Senior category remains open with no age restrictions.
This change comes into effect immediately. In order to give interested teams time to register in both the Senior and Masters 45+ category, the registration deadline has been pushed to March 30th, 2012.
We would like to take this opportunity to also confirm that with the current number of teams registered in both the men's and women's senior categories, the 2012 Senior Canadian Open will take place. However, a minimum of 4 teams will be needed to run the Masters' 45+ category in each gender.
We hope to see more teams register in these categories, therefore please help us spread the word!

If Sasori and Deidara was to fight, Sasori would have won. Deidara probably doesn't even know HOW to break Hiroku(sp?) to get Sasori out. He probably didn't even know that he needed to get Sasori out. Even if he did know, he wouldn't have been able to beat Sasori's 3rd Kazekage puppet, much less his collection. Maybe he CAN beat him if he commited suicide, but I have high doubts that he would have done that anyways.[/QUOTE]
I´m sure Deidara knows how he could break Hiruko beacause Deidara and Sasori were partners in Akatsuki, wich means they should know eachothers strenths and weaknesses to work as a team properly. Likewise Sasori should know about Didaras skills.

Interetsing that the only subject those against personal and national Liberty can attack is the legalization of MJ. Not the budget, the economy, Monetary or Foreign Policy but pot!

And, if Romney loses on Tuesday, the Repub Party is done, finished, kaput! That's because the Repub brand is damaged beyond repair. Today's new Conservatives have given the party a bad reputation and the great majority of young voters and women want nothing to do with this new Conservatism. If Romney wins, the Repubs can hold on hold on for a few more years. If he loses, the party is over and the nation's third oldest party, the Libertarian Party, will be the new viable party with fresh ideas and a fresh platform better suited for the here and now!
Wouldn't "todays new Conservitive" be Libertarians? From what I have seen, many young people would go along with much of what Libertarians spout as freedom. However, there is a large majority of those who have jumped on the Obomawagon and refuse to get off, entrenching themselves with large government ideas and social programs. Many more than those who have decided to go Libertarian or Republican. In order for Libertarians to actually have an impact on our nation, all young Libertarians and the majority of the old guard Republicans would have to come together and compromise on several issues. Legalization of pot would be one of these. I think some old guard R's wouldn't mind seeing it legalized if it was highly regulated and taxed. Drunk driving needs to have much harsher consequences., no question.
"I am not red nor blue but, red, white and blue. Therefore, I reserve the right to be critical of ALL politicians!" Except your own?
Remember in high school there was that smart aleck kid who acted like he knew everything, was always critical, but never really did anything but sit back and pick on kids who were actually doing work? That is how the Libertarian party often comes across to the uneducated public and dominant parties. If the Libertarian movement is going to have a real effect on our nation as a whole, issues need to be streamlined and comprimised. The party itself has to become full of activists who are not just talking heads but can show proof in the pudding in a humble way.
A huge problem with our country is the polarization of issues with the political elites trickling down to Joe Shmo. Our country needs a modern day Henry Clay. Someone who can reach across the aisle and work with others to figure out a viable way for America to sustain growth with the many issues plaguing it. Is the Libertarian way going to be it or is it just going to be another party unwilling to dirty its hands with compromise necessary for a united country?
Divided we fall,
A very thoughtful post! My comments in purple.

I serve alcohol for a living..I will NOT overserve a guest because I dont want to ever be held accountable if they wrap themselves around a telephone pole or hurt/kill someone afterwards
the problem is people get DUI's and they plea them out and get their license back and do it again, and again,....like I said I have no problem for those that want to partake, but I dont want them on the road driving impaired..there has to be some sort of measurement of impairment if you are going to allow people to smoke pot legally..

Shades Of GreyThe formula for this polish is awesome. It glides on easily, and dries very quickly. I like to use two coats of polish, and after two the smokey grey becomes a darker gun-metal grey. Love the little miniscule flecks of shimmer too. Definitely my favorite shade of grey that I own.

Fritz Rauch is as cerebral and smart as they come in his role of the Homestead football team's defensive coordinator.
But he can be blunt as heck too.
"Luck is for losers," he said following the Highlanders' stunning, near-perfect, 49-8 demolition of Marshfield in the WIAA D2 state semifinals Saturday afternoon in Oshkosh.
"We talk about it all the time: Great personnel, great preparation, great performance. That's how you win games."
His boss, Highlander head coach Dave Keel agreed as the Highlanders (11-1) earned their first trip back to the WIAA state finals this coming Friday at Camp Randall since the D1 title year of 2008.
They will play three-time state D2 champion Waunakee (12-0) which survived a 35-28 overtime thriller over Homestead's North Shore rival Whitefish Bay this afternoon.
The win also a little bit of revenge for the Highlanders as they had fallen to Marshfield the last two times that they met them in state semifinal games in 2001 and 2002.
This will be the fifth trip to the state finals for the Highlanders since 1999. They won DI titles in 1999, 2006 and 2008. This is is their first berth in D2.
"I was very proud of how we stepped up," Keel said, "but in my 30-some years of coaching, that was about as close to perfect a (first) half of football that I may have seen."
"I knew we were focused and we're always looking to get better and better, but that (half) was indeed a special thing."
How perfect was the first 24 minutes?
The Highlanders scored on all six possessions, including off of three turnovers, all of which were converted into touchdowns and they ran 42 plays for 290 yards as opposed to just 12 for 71 for the Tigers.
They also scored on the first march, a 14-play, 74 yard drive that included one fourth down conversion and another fourth down case when quarterback Jake Laihinen drew the Tigers (10-2) offsides with a hard count.
Running back Shaquille Cole, who ran hard on a tender ankle that was injured in last week's level III win over Green Bay Southwest, converted that into a four-yard TD run.
"The funny thing was," said Keel, "We've been struggling all year to score on the first series. We simply haven't converted a whole lot, but to go down there and get seven points in that situation was a significant positive."
And then they did it again, with a 12-play 72-yard drive as Cole went over from five yards out for the score just at the start of the second quarter to make it 14-0.
How good was the day going? Keel even tried a little "trickeration" on that second sequence, as left-handed back-up quarterback Vincent Wilkerson took a pitch from Laihinen and then hit Jack Pop for a 41-yard pass.
The march got off to a shaky start when Jay Schneider fumbled the Tiger punt, only to have teammate Tyler Gehrke jump on it and save the day. That's the second week in a row that Gehrke has saved Schneider's bacon in such a manner.
Cole's second TD of the day would be start of a cacade of 35-second period points that left the large Marshfield contingent stunned and the Homestead backers thrilled.
It happened quickly.
A bad punt was converted into a five-play, 47-yard drive for score as Laihinen sold a perfect fake into the middle and went six yards on an option for a 21-0 advantage.
Then back-up kicker Luke Neusen dropped a kickoff into no-man's land and Gehrke pounced on it on the Marshfield 16.
Three plays later, Laihinen snuck in from a yard out for a 27-0 lead.
A play later, defensive back Riley Pelisek forced and gathered in a fumble on the Tiger 38. Three plays later, Laihinen found a wide open Schneider in the flat for a 35-yard TD reception as the margin ballooned to 35-0.
And just for good measure, Gehrke went back at it again, intercepting a pass on the Marshfield 47. Three plays later and with just 27 seconds left in the half, Laihinen squirreled in from a yard out for his third TD of the half and a 42-0 halftime lead.
"I'm not sure what to say," said Gehrke. "I can't really explain it. It's just that we've working and looking forward to this for eight years. I think we played just a great half."
Indeed, even Laihinen and the passing game were flawless, as including Wilkerson's toss, the Highlanders threw for 176 yards in the first half, including completions on all eight attempts.
Back-up running back Brett Geschke even got into the act in the second half with a nifty 36-yard bounce off the edge to paydirt.
"This feels great," said Laihinen. "When coach Keel calls the perfect play for the perfect situation, it's an amazing feeling."
Even giant senior offensive tackle Luke Worthington, who will play his last football game in the state finals as he is taking a basketball scholarship to BYU next fall, felt good about his role, leading an efficient effort by an offensive line that includes three sophomores.
"This is amazing," he said. "We're starting a new legacy here. We're getting back to state, where we belong."
"The whole week of practice we tried to be as perfect as we could be," said Schneider. "To be anything else was not an option at this point (in the season)."
His coach was happy to see that.
"One of the things that successful teams do is play their best football towards the end of the season," said Keel. "That (first half) may indeed have been the best run of football I've seen in many seasons."
"All three phases, offense, defense, special teams, we were clicking."

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
I actually liked this one better then the BC one and in all honesty it have ahumor that have been fairly absent in the later cinematics. Ofc few things can beat the opening scene in the original cinematic.
But i give this one 5/5.
This have been a good conversation
Very nice!
Blizz makes top cinematics, imo.
Can't say Blizzard doesn't know how to make trailers... I laughed when the human passed over the spear to the orc with their faces like: DAFUK? Enjoyable trailer, still amazed that Blizzard went with the Panda-idea.
Another amazing trailer, they know how to make those things amazing, now if only they could figure out how to make WOW amazing, see you in GW2 because it's amazing
im to lazy too use grammar or punctuation good
yes amazing cinematics, BUT.....even Blizz cannot make the panda cool. sorry, but i went from "fuckin ey" when the human/orc were fighting to "what the gay...?" when the panda showed up.
he is not even a cool ninja panda, he's a sensei full of wisdom and crap panda...."what is worht fighting for?" ...well i dunno ...FUN?...friken sensei mumbo jumbo.
and a human giving an orc a weappon?!! WHAT THE CRAP HAPPENED TO YOU BLIZZZ???

Why would dreamworks sue Blizzard for an idea Blizzard had in the first place, it makes no sense.

They wouldn't have any legal ground to stand on.
Because flying a Minmatar ship is like going down a flight of stairs on an office chair while firing an Uzi.
Loved the CG. But it could not be helped noted that it was sanitized and very light themed compared to prior expansion trailers, almost comedic towards the end. The Chinese appeal could not be missed too, the game's obvious target and all the money that trade from China will bring Blizzard.
I also feel the MoP expansion is to be 'mom approved friendly' after watching the kung fu pandaren but I will give it a go on release, I think that feeling is accurate from what I've seen from the Beta and game news.
I did enjoy the trailer.
I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil

That was kind of a let down, good CG though.
Seconding. Beautiful cinematic, but it's not really that good compared to their previous works. I think they changed their cinematics director or something because Diablo 3 cinematic also suffered from that problem - everything was beautifully animated and executed, but it just lacked something the old cinematics had.
Nature without Technology is little more than animals running about.
Nature without Magic is without wonder or miracle.
Magic without Technology is fantasy.
Magic without Nature is formless and useless.
Technology without Nature is application without understanding.
Technology without Magic is repetitious and uninventive.
Favorite part was when the human handed the orc the stick. It seems they are putting a little humor back into WoW and that's not necessarily a bad thing. It may have gone back to the Warcraft style of humor we grew to love in the RTS. Don't you miss clicking on your dudes too many times to see what they say?
I quit wow because I wasn't having fun anymore. I'm not going back for MoP but I do hope they put more fun content into the game, not just raids and rehashing dungeons.
Play for fun. Play to win. Play for perfection. Play with friends. Play in another world. Why do you play?
was that a scene for 'kung-fu panda 3'?...straight to dvd...

The candidates vying to fill the Massachusetts state senate seat formerly held by Mike Knapik debated each other Friday. State Representative Don Humason of Westfield, a Republican, and Holyoke City Councilor David Bartley, a Democrat, will be on the ballot next month.
Bartley and Humason both tout their commitment to western Massachusetts, and their frustration with the lack of state dollars spent in the region. Humason says current local aid formulas tend to leave these communities shorted on state money.
"So it's kind of incumbent on us as elected officials to stand up on our chairs and loudly scream and try to make a case for our situation out here in western Mass.," says Humason, "and that is an ongoing battle, and one that I will happily fight."
Humason has served as a state rep. since 2003. He points to economic development projects in Westfield as some of his accomplishments. But Bartley argues that Humason's legislative record is weak.
"You can't sit in the statehouse for six terms and have a record devoid of accomplishment," Bartley says. "You need to work with both sides of the aisle, particularly in this state being a Democratic majority, you've got to work with the leadership there."
The seat has been in Republican hands since Mike Knapik was first elected in 1994. If Democrats win it, the senate will have hust three Republicans.
WGBY public television hosted the debate, and will air it next Friday.

Bathroom renovations are one of the surest ways to help sell a home. But you don't have to break the bank to make improvements that will appeal to buyers. Here are five ways to transform a bathroom without going over budget.
24/7 Listener Line: 1-888-MONEY-PIT
Bathroom renovations are one of the surest ways to help sell a home. But you don't have to break the bank to make improvements that will appeal to buyers. Here are five ways to transform a bathroom without going over budget.
If your bathroom fixtures are more than 15 years old, the first renovation you should undertake is an upgrade in performance and water efficiency by installing WaterSense-labeled fixtures. Switching in a new water-saving faucet allows you to re-accessorize the room while reducing water flow by at least 30 percent without a downgrade in performance. Smarter showerheads provide spa-style amenities while using less than 2.0 gallons of water per minute. And high-efficiency toilets (HETs) are now the norm in up-to-date, resource-conscious homes, conserving more than 4,000 gallons of water per year. If you make any or all of these green bathroom renovations, highlight them in home listings and open house materials so that shoppers know they're looking at lower utility bills as well as new fixtures.
When you're showing a home for sale, one of the main priorities is to present a neutral but appealing space in which potential buyers can envision their own day-to-day lives. So even if you love bold color or a wallpaper print in your bathroom, tone it down for the sake of the sale. Painting walls a neutral shade or a pale, soothing blue or green will make the bathroom appear larger and give it a peaceful feeling. Paint the entry door, cabinetry and trim a crisp white for a clean look and renewed focus on the room's built-in details.
Illuminate the best features of a bathroom renovation and add convenience by amping up the lighting scheme. Just by replacing a few fixtures with energy efficient, eye-catching lighting styles, you'll transform the space and reduce energy bills. When choosing bathroom lighting, focus on fixtures that provide task lighting at the vanity and over the shower or tub, overhead lighting for general illumination, and accent lighting to define architectural features. Also make the most of any opportunities for natural lighting: skylights and glass-block windows will let the sunshine in but still provide privacy.
Prevent moisture buildup and the problems it can cause, such as mold, mildew and finish damage, by upgrading your bathroom's ventilation as part of the renovation. Depending on the current state of the ventilation system, this project can range from the DIY project installing a few components to calling in a contractor to install all-new venting and electrical connections. Whatever the case, adequate ventilation is critical to the air quality, structural integrity and overall comfort of a bathroom, and buyers will appreciate this important update.
Transform a bath from the ground up by installing a new floor. The small floorspace of most bathrooms makes this an affordable renovation, and new flooring options combine moisture resistance with the look of favorite finishes. Lumber Liquidators' line of Tranquility resilient flooring offers a great range of natural wood looks and textures made from a water-resistant, easy-to-clean vinyl material. In a peel-and-stick plank format, it's simple to install over existing flooring and backed by a 25-year warranty. If you're updating a powder room, other flooring options like natural hardwood are possibilities. But for a full bath, stick with materials that will stand up to everyday use and humidity—that means you'll want to avoid wood or bamboo.

It should be no surprise that U.S. and Russian diplomats struck a deal to get rid of Syria�s chemical weapons so quickly. Both nations had strong converging interests to do just that. Diplomacy becomes almost easy under those circumstances.
Russian leaders have always been keen to block the spread of weapons of mass destruction. During Soviet days, the Kremlin was far fiercer�and more effective�at keeping nukes out of the hands of the Warsaw Pact nations than the White House was at keeping them away from its NATO allies.Read more

The ferocity of ethnic violence and its potential for escalation increase the political pressures for U.S. leadership and collective engagement. The U.S. Army has a direct interest in ethnic-based conflicts because land power is the dominant means for intervention through coalition peacekeeping and peace-enforcement operations.

(Jan 13) This week we're celebrating . . . International Printing WeekSunday, January 13th, 2008
International Printing Week
Educating and promoting the importance of Graphic Arts and Graphic Artists as well as the Printing Community in our everyday life.
Just imagine what your world would look like without their work. What would the Web look like? Plain, bland, with probably a lot of "programmer blue"? Functional. Yes. But really, really dull.
And who could imagine MTV without its bold and striking graphics and visual humor? Apple without is cool visual style? Magazines, books, TV, movies, the Web? All would be so boring without the ideas, vision, and work of the Graphic Arts community.

Skip to comments.Time poll shows Obama with 5-point lead in Ohio; PPP offers its services
Posted on 10/24/2012 2:38:13 PM PDT by Perdogg
A new poll released today by Time magazine shows President Obama with a 5-point lead in the critical battleground state of Ohio, which has sided with the winner in 27 of the last 29 presidential elections.
To answer your first question: the Time poll of 783 likely voters relies on a D+9 sample. Thirty-seven percent of respondents identified as Democrats, while 28 percent were Republicans and 29 percent Independents.
(Excerpt) Read more at twitchy.com ...
Notice how the liberal pollsters are focusing their efforts on OHIO.
This means one thing folks -— THAT IS *THE* STATE that will elect our next President according to the electoral college.
Forget the National Polls. Ohio it is!!
Grr!! You know RCP will use this in their averages IMMEDIATELY!
LS and Ravi: We need data from you guys!
D+9? What a joke. Guess PPP would advise R&R to pull out of OH. Time for some truth telling: Romney UP in OH.
Still looking good for Mitt in the Buckeye state, I would say
RE: Thirty-seven percent of respondents identified as Democrats, while 28 percent were Republicans and 29 percent Independents.
OK, someone knowledgeable from Ohio tell me what the more realistic D/R/I breakdown should be in the Buckeye State because the above sampling sounds suspiciously unhinged to me.
Sure he is!! Democraps got it in the bag... no need for Democraps to even wake up before the polls close at 9PM.
You can't go cash your welfare check anyway, the banks are closed on election day.
Yeah, it's already in there. lol
This reminds me of pre-World War II Japanese naval war gaming.
Wasn't Tim Carney at Time for many years ?
Gotta love drug-induced Dem fantasies.
I hate to break it to all you poll groupies and handwringers..you NEVER before November 6th see a definitve "Romney has Ohio in the bag" from the MSM or even the polls showing this. You kmow why? That would be an admonition that Obama lost. So some of you need to go take a walk in the park, spend time with your kids, go knock some doors and stop with all the agita and emoting here and annoying the rest of us. Ohio is Romney's now go get a life.
" Thirty-seven percent of respondents identified as Democrats, while 28 percent were Republicans "
Uh huh
Romney leads among independents in this poll by 13. In 2008 Obama won Independents by 8 points. Jay Cost and number munchers was all over this on Twitter.
Jay Cost
Number Munchers
More Independents were polled than were Republicans. This poll is +9 Democrats, yet Obama leads by only 5? What does that tell you?
Actually, forget the Ohio polls, and follow the national polls, because the national polls are the Ohio polls.
What has been ignored in all the discussion about polling is that, historically, the GOP candidate's share of the vote in Ohio correlates very closely with his share of the national vote.
In 2008, McCain earned 46.5% of the national popular vote; his Ohio share was 47.3%. In 2004, George W. Bush earned 50.7% of the national popular vote; his Ohio share was 51%. In 2000, George W. Bush earned about 48% of the national popular vote; his Ohio share was 52%.
You can go back even further, but the results are the same - GOP candidates tend to equal or overperform their national popular vote percentage. I feel confident in predicting that if Romney is leading in the national polls on Election Day, he will carry Ohio.
I think Rasmussen has it dead even in OH.
Obama's out. A challenger polling ahead or even tied nationally and gaining momentum will always win.
That wasn't a good poll.
Thanks for posting that! God bless 'em! Hopefully they'll talk up Josh Mandel too. I've been concerned that a local progressive group has been in the neighborhood the last week but there's no Romney ground game here.
It feels surreal this year. There's not a single Obama sign in the whole neighborhood. Four years ago they were everywhere. There isn't a sign for ANY Dem candidate in my entire neighborhood. Lots of Romney and Mandel signs :)
If voter turnout is anything like my neighborhood Chik-Fil-A Appreciation Day was, Romney and Mandel will do fine.
I'd love to do some of those things but hubby won't remove my strait jacket....:-/
I said basically the same thing in another post earlier today at FR :
"The media just simply will not show Romney leading Ohio until the very, very end. They have way too much hope invested into this meme that they can win if they win Ohio. Democrats have become so obsessed with this strategy/story or whatever one wants to call it of Ohio that they cant let it go.
I have almost humorously wanted if I could figure out how to create a map that the MSM would produce in which the whole country is red except Ohio which would be blue."
Every poll always shows Obama slightly ahead or tied no matter how much momentum Romney has or what the internals show or what early voting figures are. Romney gains 6 points in PA, 3 in Iowa, 2 in NH, 2 in CO but.... zero in Ohio. That'll be the pattern.
If the polls show Romney ahead in Ohio then they know it's over.
That is good information.
I think what we are waiting to see is how undecideds break at the very end. We are banking on them moving to Romney, but it doesn't seem like there is enough evidence yet to say if that is true. Right now the race in Ohio and nationally seems to be tied. Maybe this cycle is slightly different due to the massive amounts of time and money the Democrats have poured in to Ohio. Perhaps Obama is up a couple of points there, but if there is even a slight wave toward Romney that should be enough for him to carry Ohio.
Democrats have won 4 times while losing Ohio to the Republicans—1884 and 1892 when Grover Cleveland was the candidate, 1944 when FDR was running for a fourth term, and 1960 when it was Nixon vs. Kennedy. Of course in two of those cases the outcome was a bit dubious...Cleveland won the national election in 1884 by carrying New York state by an extremely narrow margin which could have been the result of voter fraud in New York City, and Nixon's loss in 1960 is well known.
I love a woman that wears a leather straight jacket. Got boots too?? ;>)
All these polls are making me crazy! I will just wait for November 6.
Let's see, 37+28+29 = 94. So, 6% declined to state their party affiliation? Certainly wouldn't be many 3rd party responses, so I bet most of the 6% are extra DEMs.
Ironically enough, I am more encouraged by this poll than the Ras one showing a tie.
The internals here look much more favorable to Romney.
Well, not really. Mittens can win without Ohio, but Obama can't.
I was depressed after the Ras number came out this morning, but then snapped out of it.
"OK, someone knowledgeable from Ohio tell me what the more realistic D/R/I breakdown should be in the Buckeye State because the above sampling sounds suspiciously unhinged to me."
Well, 2008 would be the pinnacle of Dem support and that was +8 in a CNN exit poll. The numbers were likely much tighter as the exit polls tend to oversample dems. So this is higher than even that. But, it gets worse. Despite this advantage the results for those that haven't voted yet still tied. They mixed in a separate poll of voters that already voted and it was a tiny sample size of 145 and it way oversampled Dems by D+14, (numbers suggest it should be D+6), and even worse there were twice as many females as males sampled. They also overweighed this part of the poll to reflect 20% of the total when it's no where near that.
The most pathetic part of all is that this is a weighted poll. They didn't just get those #'s and run with them, they chose to weigh the poll this way.
In 2004, Survey USA had Kerry +3 in late October. The sample was 36% GOP, 35% DEM, and 27% IND.
Bush won by 2.1%

Tie between Kid A and In Rainbows, by Radiohead.
That's a fun one. I always play Drive to test out new headphones.
Tool - Lateralus
Always come back to Donald Fagen's The Nightfly. The instruments progressively dropping out at the end of "New Frontier" is a great test.
I really don't listen to any music that's similar to this, but Julian Casablancas' solo album "Phrazes For The Young" is my favorite all time album.
Definitely my favorite rap album of all time. So good.
Dinosaur Jr. Beyond. I smile every time I start it up and hear "Almost Ready" start to crank up.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — San Francisco 49ers left tackle Joe Staley is asked to name his most athletic teammate — the biggest freak on a team full of them.
He has options: Wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr. runs the 40-yard dash in 4.3 seconds. Quarterback Colin Kaepernick can throw a football a country mile. Tight end Vernon Davis ran the 40 in 4.38 seconds and bench-pressed 225 pounds 33 times at the combine six years ago.
"Biggest freak? Probably Aldon Smith," Staley says.
The truth is, Niners players have seen too many freakish plays by the second-year outside linebacker to deny his place on the top of this list. Naturally, they think he's the best pass rusher in the NFL, too.
By the end of this season, the record books could support that theory. With another sack Sunday in a 16-13 overtime loss to the St. Louis Rams, Smith has 17½ this season and more in his first two seasons than anyone else in league history. After 28 games, he has 31½; Reggie White had 30 in his first 28 games and 31 in his first two years.
Smith has four more games to nab a more coveted mark: Michael Strahan's single-season record of 22½, set in 2001 with the New York Giants.
ALL DAY: Peterson back to grinding defenses on rebuilt knee
Smith says he's not focused on the record, or any individual record for that matter. He didn't know of Hall of Famer Fred Dean, whose team single-season sack record set in 1983 he matched Sunday, until seeing the former defensive end among the pictures on the wall at the team facility.
Smith instead focuses on securing a playoff berth for the 49ers, now 8-3-1 despite a shutdown defensive effort vs. the Rams.
The Niners face the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, travel to the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks and finish at home against the Arizona Cardinals, who lead the league in sacks allowed.
"Statistics aren't what motivates him; it's winning games," coach Jim Harbaugh says.
Developing skills
Smith wasn't the most athletic player in his draft class of pass rushers coming out of Missouri after his redshirt sophomore season. Standing 6-4 and weighing 263 pounds, he ran the 40 in 4.74 seconds. But it's his lateral quickness, drive and production that made Smith the seventh overall pick and have him growing into a force in the NFL.
"I'd beat him in a foot race, no question," Davis says. "But it's the side-to-side, the agility that makes him special."
Staley says the hardest part of his season is the time each summer he has to face Smith in training camp. A reserve lineman takes on those responsibilities during the season.
"It sucks," Staley says. "I always think training camp is the hardest time of my year, just because I have to go against him and (defensive lineman) Justin (Smith) every single day. But it makes me a better player."
Staley says two things have happened for Aldon Smith since he came up a half-sack short of the rookie record of 14½, set by the original "Freak," Jevon Kearse, in 1999. Smith, 23, expanded his array of moves during the offseason, and he's able to read the intention of blockers before they get to him.
"He's still developing," Staley says. "But he has everything. He's got every single pass-rush move you can have. He doesn't hang his hat on one thing. He works really hard with the guys on the line, and he's playing well. I think he's also a smarter pass rusher, in terms of knowing what the tackle is doing, how to read it and how to take advantage of it."
Smith credits his dabbling in boxing and mixed martial arts for some of the improvement.
"Imagine someone trying to get their hands on you in a fight," he says. "It's just like a tackle trying to get his hands on you. It all translates to how you move your hands."
Niners defensive coordinator Vic Fangio describes Smith as "a combination of strength, size, speed, slither and long arms."
Smith's best performance of the season came against the Chicago Bears on Nov. 19 on Monday Night Football. He stunned the Bears and left tackle Gabe Carimi for 5½ sacks in a 32-7 decision. The total was the most in the league in more than five years. He also had two forced fumbles in that game.
Jason Campbell was starting for injured Jay Cutler at quarterback, and in a later shakeup Carimi wound up being benched in part for his performance. Campbell described the game as "probably the worst nightmare."
Smith says the 5½ sacks marked the most productive game in his life. Not in high school nor at Missouri did he come anywhere close.
"I've gotten so much better since then," Smith says. "I've matured a lot in my game, and I didn't play with a bunch of amazing athletes. But really, I'm just a far better player and with a lot more knowledge of the game."
Offseason growth
Smith's 2012 performance has convinced many he'll be a force in the NFL for years to come, but his offseason had some wondering if he could last beyond this season.
In late January, after the 49ers were eliminated from the playoffs, Smith was arrested and charged with driving under the influence in Miami Beach. Five months later, he suffered minor injuries after being stabbed multiple times at his own house party in East San Jose. Smith says there were more than 100 guests at the party. Two people were shot but survived.
Smith was contrite after the incident: "Letting everybody down was probably the saddest part," he said then. The offseason trouble affirmed the book on Smith coming out of Missouri. Pro Football Weekly's annual draft guide said of Smith, "(He is) still immature and needs to figure out what it means to be a pro."
Did the offseason stabbing help Smith figure anything out?
"I'd be a fool to say no, right?" he says. "Seriously, it made me definitely grow up and realize don't take life for granted and just make smart decisions."
Smith says he doesn't think he put himself in a bad situation by throwing a party with more than 100 guests — "You can be anywhere and anything can happen," he says — but says he doesn't throw large parties anymore.
Those close to Smith were rattled by the incident. His former AAU basketball coach, Matt Suther, was in Smith's corner when he was trying to decide whether to leave Missouri with two years of eligibility left. He had suffered a leg injury that kept him out for three games as a sophomore.
"With any kid that age, you have the concern if he's mature enough to handle the things that come along with being a professional athlete," Suther says. "There were concerns, as there is with any kid that age."
Suther says he thinks Smith has grown up a lot since draft day.
"We all go through things when we're young that change our perspective on life and how we handle situations," Suther says. "Aldon's no different. I think it was a learning experience for him and something he can build upon to make sure those things don't happen in the future."
The 49ers front office ought to be happy to hear that, considering how much of an impact their young rusher figures to have on the team's quest for a Super Bowl. He also benefits from often being lined up alongside Justin Smith, the bull rusher touted as among the best defensive players in the league.
"It's a team thing," Harbaugh says of the prospect of Aldon Smith setting the record.
The man tasked with blocking Smith on a daily basis in practice backs that up. Practice squad tackle Kenny Wiggins says even the best defenses in the league don't work as well together as the 49ers do. Wiggins played for the Baltimore Ravens, practicing against their defense, and offers a comparison.
"It was a great experience playing against one of the best defenses ever with Ray Lewis, Terrell Suggs and Ed Reed," Wiggins says. "But out there I kind of feel like it's every man for himself, do your own thing. But here you see Justin setting up moves for Aldon, and it's more of a whole team atmosphere here."
There are four more games to see if that team concept can result in an unprecedented milestone for one pass rusher.

Two of Super Rugby's strugglers this season will face off at nib Stadium in Perth on Friday as the Force host the touring Sharks.
Two of Super Rugby's strugglers this season will face off in Perth on Friday as the Force host the touring Sharks.
Their heavy 41-7 defeat to the Brumbies aside, the Force have been there or thereabouts in recent weeks, drawing with the Reds at home and surprising the Crusaders.
Last weekend saw them pipped to the post by the Chiefs in Pukekohe, indicating that the Force can be competitive in this year's competition. Going down 22-21 is a result they should be proud of.
In several areas however, the statistics are damning. Tries have been short for the Force – only the Kings have scored fewer than the Perth side's 19 this season. Their line-out is the worst in the tournament with a success rate of 78.4 per cent.
The other side of the coin does not read well either. The Force's tackle success rate of 84.9 per cent is the second worst in the league.
Michael Foley has recalled scrum-half Alby Mathewson to the starting line-up in the only change in the Western Australian line-up.
The Sharks meanwhile arrive in Perth knowing that their play-off chances are hanging by a thread.
An unsuccessful tour has seen the Sharks fall to losses against the Chiefs, Highlanders and Reds – adding to a losing run that now stretches to six matches since their last success against the Crusaders in April.
John Plumtree's side cannot afford any more slip-ups and a victory in Perth would provide them with a confidence boost ahead of a double header against the Bulls.
Tries have been hard to come by with only 22 scored thus far, Pat Lambie's boot tending to be the Sharks' main weapon.
Their defence and line-out rank as one of the best in the league meaning the Sharks have a strong platform from which to work, but their effectiveness in attack has been absent.
Springbok tighthead prop Jannie du Plessis has been promoted to the starting XV. Head coach John Plumtree has decided to give the experienced front-row forward a run in place of in-form youngster Wiehahn Herbst.
Other changes to the side see Odwa Ndungane come in for Piet Lindeque on the wing while Willem Alberts replaces Jean Deysel at blindside.
Prediction: With the Force playing well but missing out on the results, this could be their time. Force by 3!
The teams:
Western Force: 15 Jayden Hayward, 14 Patrick Dellit, 13 Ben Jacobs, 12 Kyle Godwin, 11 Nick Cummins, 10 Sias Ebersohn, 9 Alby Mathewson, 8 Ben McCalman, 7 Chris Alcock, 6 Matt Hodgson (c), 5 Sam Wykes, 4 Toby Lynn, 3 Kieran Longbottom, 2 Heath Tessmann, 1 Pek Cowan.
Replacements: 16 James Hilterbrand, 17 Tetera Faulkner, 18 Rory Walton, 19 Richard Brown, 20 Brett Sheehan, 21 Junior Rasolea, 22 Sam Norton-Knight.
Sharks: 15 Riaan Viljoen, 14 Odwa Ndungane, 13 JP Pietersen, 12 Meyer Bosman, 11 Lwazi Mvovo, 10 Patrick Lambie, 9 Charl McLeod, 8 Keegan Daniel (c), 7 Willem Alberts, 6 Marcell Coetzee, 5 Franco van der Merwe, 4 Anton Bresler, 3 Jannie du Plessis, 2 Kyle Cooper, 1 JC Janse van Rensburg.
Replacements: 16 Monde Hadebe, 17 Wiehahn Herbst, 18 Pieter-Steph du Toit, 19 Derick Minnie / Lubabalo Mtembu, 20 Jean Deysel, 21 Tian Meyer, 22 Piet Lindeque.
Date: Friday, May 17
Kick-off: 19:45 local (12:45 BST, 11:45 GMT)
Venue: nib Stadium, Perth

|In response to Re: TOILET - Better description of problem.
: I felt I needed to explain this better than when I first wrote it. When we pulled the stool up, we found it broken on the bottom of the bowl. There is a "lip" that fits into the sewer drain that is broken off. It's not the entire piece, only a portion of it, maybe 1/8 - 1/4 of it. It's not cracked beyond the break. (part is actually gone) The plummer I had come said he felt that the stool needed replaced because he didn't know of any way to fix it. I thought perhaps I could use some caulk to build it back up a bit and then use two wax rings to secure it so the water will flow down the drain instead of out on the floor through the place where it is broken. I would really like to keep this tank and bowl combination. What do you more knowledgeable plummer people think?

Getting To Know "The Heimlich Guy"
by Howard Simon
posted May 14 2012 12:00AM
Mark Asper hopes to someday be known as a starting NFL offensive lineman but for now the Bills rookie has to settle for being known as "The Heimlich Guy."
Buffalo's sixth round pick in the draft last month was a three year starter for the Oregon Ducks but his fame, to this point, has come for performing the Heimlich maneuver on the father of an Oregon student during Rose Bowl week. Asper was taking part in the annual "Beef Bowl" which pits the two Rose Bowl combatants in a battle to see which team consumes more beef.
Asper, who did his part by downing four pieces of Prime Rib, was on the losing squad but saved a life and was told that University of Wisconsin fans began referring to him as "The Heimlich Guy." You can listen to Asper tell the story during a segment on the WGR Morning Show and find out why he hasn't kept in touch with the man whose life he saved.
As to football, Asper was one of many rookies in town for a minicamp this past weekend and finished his first workout feeling good. "My head spun a bit", the 6-6, 319 pound Asper said. "Playing center(new position for him) with a new offense, a new scheme, new calls and new people."
Asper made 13 starts at right tackle for the Ducks and 25 at right guard, where he played last season. Prior to the Bills minicamp, he spent a week taking a crash course on center at the University of Oregon.
"I knew coming in I had more work cut out for me," the 26 year old Asper told WGR. "The other guys have played their positions for three or four years. They can rely on muscle memory or old technique. I was looking at the defense from a new spot in the line which made things look a little different at first and having to worry about getting the ball to the quarterback made things different so I knew I had to hit the playbook and act like I belong here."
Yes, you did read that correctly. Asper is 26 years old. He spent two years on a mission in Spain. Not only is he 26 but he's also married and has two daughters so he isn't your typical rookie by any means. Asper was serious about his education as well, earning two undergraduate degrees from Oregon and he is currently working on a graduate degree.
