Hugh Ramsay was Lambert's closest associate in Paris. He was an easy, cordial companion, and this is reflected in this portrait. Both artists were students at the Académie Colarossi at 10 Rue de la Grande Chaumière, one of the largest and cheapest French academies, and subsequently at the Académie Delécluze. As well as sharing thoughts on art, they frequently attended exhibitions and visited the Louvre together.
Lambert depicted Ramsay face on, with his features relaxed and his eyes diverted. In his use of a neutral background and tonal colouring he indicated his deference to Ramsay and his tonalist training in Melbourne. Lambert used broad, vigorous brushstrokes which suggest he worked quickly and possibly at night by the light of an oil lamp.
He painted this portrait of Ramsay after he arrived in Paris on 3 February 1901 and before April 1902 when Ramsay departed for London. The Lamberts did not return to London until November 1902, by which time Ramsay had already departed for Australia, leaving in August 1902.
Lambert made several drawings of Ramsay, but this was his only oil portrait and the first of an artist friend. In many of his self-portraits, Ramsay placed himself under critical analysis with a furrowed brow and determined jaw, or with one half of his face in darkness; however, Lambert focused on his friend's genial face.
Lambert probably kept the painting as a memento of his friend, as it was still in his possession when he died.

The Reds were made to work for their Super Rugby victory but got the job done in beating the Lions 34-20 in Brisbane on Saturday.
The Reds were made to work for their Super Rugby victory but got the job done in beating the Lions 34-20 in Brisbane on Saturday.
The defending champions held a slender 13-6 lead at half-time, but managed to pull away after the break courtesy of three second-half tries that also resulted in the hosts bagging their all-important bonus point.
Whilst it wasn't the most convincing of wins for the home side, it certainly was a crucial one as Queensland continue to build some much-needed momentum ahead of their showdown with the Brumbies next weekend.
It was the Reds' second win on the trot while the Lions have now registered ten losses in a row and remain rock-bottom. Ewen McKenzie's side moves to 36 points, temporarily level in the last wildcard spot with the Sharks.
Fly-half Quade Cooper made a positive return from injury after a seven month layoff and played the entirety of the first half, showing flashes of his attacking best.
Defending at full-back, Cooper made a couple of midfield breaks and his combination with scrum-half Will Genia showed little rust however some of the more unpredictable plays failed to come off.
Mike Harris enjoyed another perfect night with the boot, kicking four conversions and two penalties.
In-form teenage flanker Liam Gill crossed for the first try of the match, while Lions pivot Elton Jantjies kept his team in the hunt with two first-half penalties.
The Reds broke free after the break though with tries to hooker Saia Faingaa, debutant winger Chris F'Sautia and a trademark long range effort from Genia to secure the bonus point.
Coach Ewen McKenzie gave the bench a run with 20 mins to play and the Lions staged a mini comeback scoring two tries through their reserves Martin Buzuidenhout and Jaco Kriel.
The scorers:
For Reds:
Tries: Gill, S Faingaa, Feauai-Sautia, Genia
Cons: Harris 4
Pens: Harris 2
For Lions:
Try: Bezuidenhout, Kriel
Cons: Jantjies 2
Pens: Jantjies 2
Reds: 15 Ben Lucas, 14 Dom Shipperley, 13 Anthony Faingaa, 12 Mike Harris, 11 Digby Ioane, 10 Quade Cooper, 9 Will Genia; 8 Scott Higginbotham, 7 Liam Gill, 6 Jake Schatz, 5 James Horwill (c), 4 Rob Simmons, 3 James Slipper, 2 Saia Faingaa, 1 Greg Holmes.
Replacements: James Hanson, Ben Daley, Adam Wallace-Harrison, Eddie Quirk, Nick Frisby, Chris F'sautia, Luke Morahan.
Lions: 15 Andries Coetzee, 14 Deon van Rensburg, 13 Lionel Mapoe, 12 Jaco Taute, 11 Michael Killian, 10 Elton Jantjies, 9 Ross Cronje, 8 Joshua Strauss (c), 7 Grant Hattingh, 6 Derick Minnie, 5 Ruan Botha, 4 Franco van der Merwe, 3 Patric Cilliers, 2 Callie Visagie, 1 JC Janse van Rensburg.
Replacements: 16 Martin Bezuidenhout, 17 CJ Van der Linde, 18 Cobus Grobbelaar, 19 Jaco Kriel, 20 Tian Meyer, 21 Ruan Combrinck, 22 James Kamana.

Manga reading list: Bleach, Naruto, Katekyo Hitman Reborn, One Piece, Code Breaker, Gamaran, Kuroko No Basket, Fairy Tail, The World God Only Knows, Kimi No Iru Machi, Good Ending, Medaka Box, Nisekoi, D.Gray-Man, Ao No Exorcist, Freezing, Magi - Labyrinth of Magic, Soul Eater, Rosario Vampire Season II, Iris Zero, Ubell Blatt, Bloody Cross, Sun-Ken Rock, and Infinite Stratos,
I won't lie, I shed a tear for this chapter.
One of the best endings of an arc.
Awesome! Like so many times Bakuman gave me a grin all over my face
Eiji so great it's almost a little hax.
And Hiramarus commen't was awesome, too. ("I'll end my Manga in a cool way as soon as possible")
Great chapter as usual, Bakuman is paving its way to the top of Jump.
IF some of these were the manga authors' experiences... I wonder if Oda (of One Piece) was their Eiji.
Ashirogi = Ohba & Obata (For obvious reasons)
Eiji = Oda (two geniuses)
Hiramaru = Kishimoto (wants to end a Manga, but doesn't know how. lol )
Nakai = Mashima (people thought he were an assistant + likes to draw "Fairies")
Takahama = Yabuki Kentaro (<-- was an assistant of Obata)
Fukuda = Kubo (don't really know about that, either Kubo, or Fujisawa Toru)
I had a feeling things would play out like this, but reading it was amazing.
Eiji needs to take his vacation, allowing for an intermediate arc where there can be a resolution for PCP, then he'll re-enter the story in the most epic way and the final battle for world domination can begin.
I'm serious about the vacation thing, he really deserves it even as a fictional character, I hope he doesn't just start publishing yet; the boy needs a girlfriend.
Eiji's passion for creating manga is unsurpassed by anyone in the manga. Which kinda makes me think that he might be sick or something and probably dying. He seems to drawing manga as much as ha can, whenever and however, like he no longer has enough time in the world.

Cute and comfortable
"Shoe fits as it should, mostly. Light in weight, easy to walk in wedge heel. Cut outs are perfect. This sandal is easy to dress up or down. The only reason I rated them less comfy is the heel. It goes up kind of high and curves in toward your ankle. Because the zipper is back there, for me, it rubs the back of my ankle in a not so good way. The way I've been able to work with this is I leave them unzipped, the back is molded so firm that you can't really tell they're unzipped and they don't slip off at all. I love Crown Vintage but there is no way I can wear them zipped, they would eat up the back of my ankle in an hour. And it's not that they're tight, it just how the back heel was molded."

Not long lasting
"I have been wearing this shoe for about 8 months. Like in the previous picture, the sole started to break apart at about the 3rd or 4th week (I wore them once to twice a week), but I decided to keep wearing them until they split for good. Now the front part of the sole is coming apart. They were a little tight and I sized up. Like the previous reviews, the elastic on the top of the shoe was a tad tight, especially after 9 hours of wear. I got blisters in the back of my ankle. I gotta tell ya, though, these shoes are beyond cute! Keep the wear short--and you can maximize the cute!"

Poorly constructed
"I bought this shoe less than 2 months ago and one of the heels has separated from the lower sole after seldom wear. The elastic on the top is also very tight and heavy and does not have hardly any give when walking, so it becomes very uncomfortable very quickly and leaves a deep divot on the top of the foot. I am slender, and the rest of the shoe fits beautifully so I know it is not a fit issue. It's a shame, because otherwise this is a very comfortable shoe."

charged exactly what they quoted
Great customer service and very happy with the end result. Very professional, well presented and friendly company, great communication throughout the day, work was done sooner than expected. Trusted the guy that picked my car up as soon as I met him. Was even more impressed when found out that they don't usually cater to my postcode area (Veterans Village Manchester M40) but were willing to be flexible. Will definitely be recommending B and G Autotechs and will definitely be doing business with them again. Thank you very much.
Service was great. Would reccomend
great job,highly recommended
Very helpful and great service. Would definitely use again
good and cheap service. Got MOT done for £27.5. I gave 4 star as I had to wait 2 and half hours.
Very pleased with the overall experience, excellent customer service and very well priced for a quality garage.
The price was very good for a dealership. I thought to myself when they get my car in thet will tell me it needs loads of work doing it, this is exactly what happened. I ended up having a new battery and having some pipe replaced that had split in the engine. I was quoted £103.00 for the original job and i ended up paying £228.00.
More than happy, very helpful
Did not diagnose the problem. Paid 72GBP just for checking error codes and erasing and topping up oil.
We are a family run business with over 25 years experience in the motor trade. Based in dukinfield - right next door to morrisons , we have 8 mechanics, and two MOT bays. We are diagnostic specialists with dealer level diagnostic equipment. We pride ourselves on our customer service and professionalism.

SHANGHAI – Supported by strong demand for all of their major brands, General Motors and its joint ventures sold a record 3,160,377 vehicles in China in 2013. Sales increased 11.4 percent from 2012. GM sold an average of one vehicle every 10 seconds and almost 9,000 each day in China.
"GM maintained good growth momentum in our company's largest market, despite a modest slowdown in demand for commercial vehicles," said Matt Tsien, President of GM China. "We benefited from a broad portfolio of models and brands that are meeting the diverse needs of vehicle buyers across China."
Growing Sales
Domestic sales by Shanghai GM rose 13.6 percent last year to a record 1,512,000 units. SAIC-GM-Wuling sold 1,584,920 units in China, an increase of 9.7 percent and an all-time high as well. FAW-GM's domestic sales were up 6.3 percent to 59,092 units.
Buick sales in China increased 15.7 percent on an annual basis, finishing 2013 at an all-time high of 809,918 units. The brand was supported by ongoing strong demand for the original Excelle family, whose sales grew 6.9 percent to 296,183 units, and the Excelle XT and GT, whose sales were up 17.9 percent to 204,274 units.
Chevrolet likewise set a record for domestic sales, as demand increased 8.5 percent from 2012 to 652,077 units. Its most popular model was the Cruze, which had sales growth of 6.1 percent to 246,890 units. Right behind it was the Sail, which had sales of 213,075 units, and the Malibu, whose sales jumped 92.9 percent to 100,141 units.
Cadillac sales in China were up 66.6 percent from 2012 to a record 50,005 units. GM's luxury brand was led by the SRX, which sold 26,897 units – an increase of 24.0 percent. The XTS had sales of 20,101 units in its first year on the market. In addition, the ATS – which was introduced in November – had sales of 2,154 units in 2013.
Wuling sales in the domestic market rose 11.2 percent year on year to 1,484,422 units, which was also a new annual high. Baojun had sales of 100,498 units, up 19.0 percent from 2012 and a new high for the brand.
Exports by GM's manufacturing joint ventures to other emerging markets grew 7.7 percent last year to 83,145 units. The Sail accounted for 76.0 percent. This took Shanghai GM's total sales in 2013 to 1,575,167 units, SAIC-GM-Wuling's sales to 1,603,580 units and FAW-GM's sales to 60,410 units.
During December, GM and its joint ventures sold a record 271,002 vehicles in the domestic market, an increase of 11.8 percent on an annual basis. Shanghai GM's domestic sales increased 14.3 percent to 125,908 units, while SAIC-GM-Wuling's sales in China were up 9.0 percent to 138,153 units. Both were December records. FAW-GM's sales were up 25.3 percent to 6,596 units.
Growing Presence
In 2013, GM and its joint ventures expanded their lineups with several new and upgraded models. They included the Cadillac XTS and ATS, new Buick LaCrosse and Regal, Chevrolet Cruze hatchback, and Wuling Hong Guang S and Rong Guang S. Shanghai OnStar rolled out a range of new services for Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac owners, and became the first telematics service provider in China with nearly 700,000 active subscribers.
GM's joint ventures once again continued expanding their footprint. SAIC-GM-Wuling began construction of its new manufacturing base in Chongqing, Shanghai GM broke ground for a new plant that will manufacture Cadillac vehicles and the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center (PATAC) broke ground for a new R&D facility in Shanghai.
At the same time, GM continued to expand the dealership networks of all of its brands, with a focus on China's tier 3 and 4 cities. GM ended 2013 with more than 4,250 dealerships nationwide.
GM maintained its support for a greener, safer and healthier community in China. The GM Restoring Nature's Habitat Project, GM Safe Road Project and Chevrolet Red Chalk Program were among the automaker's key corporate social responsibility activities carried out in 2013. In its third year, the GM China Consumer Fuel-Saving Challenge showcased the fuel economy of products from the Buick, Chevrolet, Cadillac, Baojun and Opel brands.
"We expect vehicle sales to remain robust in 2014, driven by ongoing strong demand across China for personal four-wheel transportation," said Tsien. "GM will further expand our lineup of vehicles and services to remain in step with our customers nationwide."
General Motors traces its roots back to 1908. GM has 11 joint ventures, two wholly owned foreign enterprises and more than 58,000 employees in China. GM and its joint ventures offer the broadest lineup of vehicles and brands among automakers in China. Passenger cars and commercial vehicles are sold under the Baojun, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Jiefang, and Wuling brands. In 2014, GM sold more than 3.5 million vehicles in China.

Random Thoughts - Backlund Signs
Kent Wilson
October 05 2012 11:12AM
Jut a few things to talk about before heading into the weekend here. The lock-out continues to stretch out before us, like a distant relatives never ending vacation slide show, but nevertheless we continue to love and talk hokcye (or hockey related business items and satire) around the Nations.
Backlund Back on Ice
First up, Vasteras' oddly extended courtship with Mikael Backlund has finally culminated in the 23-year old center signing with the team. We heard about the possibility weeks ago, so I'm not sure what the hold-up was. Doesn't matter at this point, of course.
Vasteras is Backlund's home town and the team for which he played as a teenager. His final season there was somewhat contentious, with the then 19-year old Backlund battling for ice time and not the favorite of his coach. The friction caused Backlund to skip the pond and join the Kelowna rockets (who owned his CHL rights at the time).
The Rockets boasted Jamie Benn and Tyler Myers at the time. The addition of Backlund made the team a bit of a juggernaut and they went on to win the WHL championship over the Calgary Hitmen.
Back to the present. Vasteras is a member of the Allsveskan hockey league, which the relegation league below the SEL in Sweden. The only other current NHLer on the roster is the Blues Patrik Berglund, who also made his way through the Vasteras system as a prospect.
We'll make sure to keep an eye on Backliund as the season progresses, with some reports directly from writers in Sweden.
Grading the Flames Summer
While the off-ice moves made by Feaster this off-season don't seem all that relevant right now, Hockey Prospectus recently published an article on the best and worst moves made this across the league this summer as graded by a host of stats analysts, including myself.
The good news - Lee Stempniak was considered one of the better moves, garnering a 67.4% approval rating.
The bad news - the Cory Sarich and Dennis Wideman signings were considered two of the worst moves the off-season, with Sarich's deal coming with a 37.4% approval and Wideman just 6.5%.
It may seem odd to see Sarich graded higher than Wideman, but remember the question was about the quality of the contract rather than of the player. There's no question Wideman is the better defenseman, but his deal is heaped with risk because it's long-term (five years), expensive ($5.25M/year) and has the added NMC to boot. Add in the fact that Wideman turns 30 in March and a bulk of his contract comes during the downside of his career and you have a deal that is fairly unappealing.
NHL13 PS3 League
There have been lots of requests for a PS3 FN league since we went live with the XBox version. I will look into starting things up this weekend, with more details to go live tomorrow.
Stop by Saturday and make sure to share your gamertag and preferred team.
I have it on good authority the reason it took so long for backlund to sign is because he was waiting for an offer from a khl team.
I think of all the Flames players that were not yet in a situation to play, Backlund really needed to get on the ice, particularly considering his injury issues last season limited his number of games.
Is it still the same coach in Vasteras though? Curious that he would go back if it was.
October 05 2012, 03:59PM
On the grading: I found it curious that Carle's signing was considered so much better than Wideman's. I realize Carle's a little more well-loved and better defensively, but enough to make his larger contract a majority approved one vs the 6ish% for Wideman?
I tried to look that up, but failed to find out. I plan to ask some of the Swedish writers I know if that's the case or not.
I had a look and found Göran Sjöberg was listed as the current Head coach for Vasteras this coming season, http://eurohockey.com/club/247-vik-vsters-hk.html?league=4 ,his bio lists Falu IF of the Division 1 league (which is a step below Elitserien) as the team he was coaching last year and i believe he was retired from coaching when Backs was playing in Sweden, so hopefully there should be no issues remaining between Backlund and the coaching staff.
Looks like the lockout is already doing damage to the Flames.
Jiri Hudler released from his KHL team after tearing an abdominal muscle. Just great.

My Hair Is Squeaky Clean!!!I just LOVE this shampoo!!! I have oily hair that I have to wash every 2 days or it looks so greasy. My hair always felt waxy and dirty from all the buildup of products I use. I used several "cleansing" shampoos but none worked that great....then I saw this one and bought it to try. I could not believe the results!!!! My hair literally "squeaked" from being so clean! It lathered very well and smells good too. My hair looks sooo much better (shinier, healthier, more bounce) from being cleaner. Best of all I can now go 3-4 days without having to rewash! I didn't know this but Rusk has a special formulation that allows you to use less product with twice the results as normal. I only have to use a little less than a quarter size amount to get a full lather in all my "little than past the shoulder" hair length. This product will last longer than other shampoos.
If you have oily hair or nasty product buildup, this is a must try!!!!!!Mar 6, 2012Coco

Neat boot
"The foot area is slightly narrow (i have size 8 slightly wide feet) but they stretch (kind of hard to get the boots off though) and very wide calves (16.5") and the boot accommodated my calves no problem. They are super comfy to walk around in although these are the lowest heeled boots I have so it is weird to walk in such flat shoes. I love the retro look of them."

Java Remote Job Execution System
By Shanliang Jiang on Sep 19, 2008
This paper describes a Remote Job Execution (RJE) System developed on the JavaTM platform. This system not only allows users to group multiple remote calls into a single job, it also allows calls to use the results of previous calls grouped in the same job as their method input parameters, before the job is sent to a server. With functions to treat communication failures more easily and to handle exceptions directly in the server, the system is designed for developing distributed applications that are more efficient and more reliable than applications developed using the Java platform's Remote Method Invocation (RMI) APIs.
The prototype we developed showed encouraging results for our objectives, and identified some limitations to implement the RJE System on the current JDK version (1.6). Using this prototype allowed us to believe that the Remote Job Execution system is an important and interesting area for research, and to identify some new directions to explore in the distributed application domain.[Read More]

PRICE- Myrtle Irene Shaffer Smith passed away Sept. 28, 2008 of natural causes inherent to age.
She was born Dec. 6, 1921 at the family home in Stoystown, Penn. to Harry Earl and Mary E. Maxwell Shaffer. She was the fifth child in the family of 12 children.
Myrtle left home at an early age to find work and help support her family. For a time, she worked for a wealthy family in Pittsburg and learned to cook. By the time she left that position, she had learned many wonderful recipes which she prepared for her family.
On July 28, 1944 she married her sweet husband, John Franklin Smith Jr. They made their home in Jerome, Penn. where John worked as a machinist and preparation plant foreman.
Myrtle was an excellent homemaker. In 1957 they moved to Hiawatha, Utah where John worked as preparation plant supervisor and general mine superintendent for U.S. Fuel Company. They made many friends there and enjoyed card parties, square dancing, and steak frys.
In 1982, John retired and they built a home in Carbonville where they lived for the rest of their lives. Throughout their lives Myrtle and John enjoyed traveling throughout the country, seeing sites along the way, visiting relatives, and spending time with their grandchildren. Shortly before his death in 2004, Myrtle and John celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary.
Myrtle is survived by her sons, John F. (Ina) Smith III; Samuel J. (Sharron) Smith; daughter, Janet I. (Grant) Laws; sisters, Blanche Emert, Annie Eash, Marie Shaffer; brother, Donald Shaffer; 19 grandchildren, and 15 great-grandchildren, all of whom will miss her greatly.
Preceded in death by her husband, John; her parents; two brothers and six sisters.
Graveside service, Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2008, 11 a.m. Price City Cemetery. Arrangements entrusted to Mitchell Funeral Home of Price.

Skip to comments.Has Jeb's Time Come?
Posted on 06/30/2013 10:19:29 PM PDT by WilliamIII
It's one of the more interesting what-ifs of the past few decades. What would have happened if both George W. and Jeb Bush had won their gubernatorial bids in 1994? Which brother would have run for President in 2000 against Al Gore? Late in George W. Bush's second presidential term, I asked his father this question. The senior Bush shrugged, waving off the hypothetical. "Who knows?" he replied. "Didn't happen." Then, after the briefest of pauses, the 41st President added, "If Jeb wants his shot, he should have it. He's done the work, been a governor--a very fine governor, I might add--and if he wants to go for it, I hope he does."
That hope, it is safe to say, endures. No one who knows George H.W. Bush seriously doubts that the former President would like to see Jeb mount a campaign for the White House

How about, "No"?
No more bushes.
How about, "HELL NO!"?
I thought that the title suggested that Jeb was terminally ill.
I hope his time has come. I was too young to realize that his dad was a globalist. Based my opinion on his war record and his association with Reagan.
I was and still am a fan of his brother to a certain extent.
But, they had their chance. We need some new blood and the Bush's ain't it.
If Disney World needs a grand marshal for it's main street parade.
TED CRUZ IN 2016 !!! (Or earlier when the revolution comes)
I think Time's time to go out of business has come.
Still seems kind of early to assume that Jeb Bush will be the Republican candidate selected by the LMSM to lose the 2016 election.
No! Stay out da bushes.
There they go again....
Trying to pick another losing horse for us to bet on and lose. Again.
Sure his time has come......as Hillary's running mate.
No. And no. Did I mention no? A little repetition couldn't hurt: NO!
How about, "HEYELLLLLLL NO!!!!"?
Fk NOPE.
Peter Mansbridge [ that's his name I kid you not... I know it sounds like a false porn star name or something. After all men have peters that are a man's bridge to a female... ] of the CBC was already floating the notion of a Jeb Bush race on election night of November 2012. The media establishment in Canada is also promoting Jeb Bush for some reason.
I like George W. Bush, and I still hope a different and better candidate will emerge.
Clinton - Sex between the Bushes.
Obama - Gay sex between the Bushes...
John Ellis "Jeb" Bush
Juck Feb Bush
Traitors extraordinaire. I shook his daddy's hand, voted 2x for son. but they sold out the American patriot.
He's the perfect Republican candidate.
Take that as you will, just don't believe for a second that's a personal endorsement.
sure- his time to leave politics forever has coem and gone- he's way past due to leave
The very model of "damning with faint praise"...
It amazes me to think about the people who get all excited, all worked up, hormones a'gushin over elections anymore.
Seems to me they don't work so good.
We're gonna get amnesty, like it or not.
We're gonna get queer marriage, like it or not.
We already got Obamacare, like it or not.
The Dems/Pubbies are just like a pair of shoes, they just mirror each other.
And when you end up walking into the shitstorm, it's not like you will do it with only one shoe on. You will be wearing both. It TAKES both to screw things up this bad!
And you will do it willingly, with all the politicians and pundits slapping each other on the back all the way.
Just watch.
By the time of the next election, if we are still here, ANY Republican who is perceived as being even a little bit different, will get slammed and attacked, labeled as a whacko extremist.
And what you end up with will be a model of monotony, mundane through and through, so middle-of-the-road he/she will have a yellow stripe down his back!
People here and elsewhere will rave about what a savior this person is, how much they will do for American politics, just about take us back to 1776 and George Washington the best thing since sliced bread blah-blah-blah yada yada yada yada yada yada... you know what I'm sayin.
They will check the box on their mail in ballots, hearts all a twitter, afaik, it's just a play anymore. Pure theater.
hell no. i just will not vote for him. constitution party.
I've been hanging in there, voting Republican, but if this clown is nominated - or even taken seriously as a candidate - I will never again vote for this party.
Good grief. I always thought "Stupid Party" was just a nickname...
If we end up with Hillary verses Bush, I am leaving the country. Or what ever is left of it.
Oh, HAIL, NO
Time would love to see this loser run. Win or loose, they win with another Bush RINO one worlder.
Please Jeb, run! Between killing Terri Schiavo and your awarding Sir Hillary with a Liberty Medal, you sure are a great guy. I would love to have my dogs, crap in your hats.
Karl must be starting early vetting RINO's this time.
This is getting really, really old. How many times do we have to say, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
He's already next in line. Why bother with elections anymore?

Report(s): Roberto Luongo Asks For A Trade
Jonathan Willis
April 26 2012 08:19AM
We knew that Roberto Luongo's comments yesterday about being willing to waive his no-trade clause were of interest, and were bound to help feed speculation this summer. What we didn't know was that he'd actually requested a trade.
To be fair, we don't have official confirmation on that last point from the player or the organization. But at this point, it sounds all but confirmed.
Greg Wyshynski has a nice re-cap of what we (supposedly) know over at Puck Daddy, a re-cap I'll summarize here:
- Luongo asked for a trade before being asked
- A list of potential destinations will be provided next week
- Toronto and Tampa Bay will both be on it
- Luongo's wife lives in Florida
- A Luongo trade to Toronto, one way or the other, would be a never-ending story for Vancouver
The last two points are the ones I'm going to focus in on.
First, if Luongo is going to supply a list of potential destinations, than the Canucks can treat all those destinations as relatively equal; Luongo might have a preference to go to Florida, but if he's willing to accept a trade to the North Pole the Canucks can trade him to the North Pole without worrying about which team on his list he *really* wants to go to.
Second, if Toronto offers the most for Luongo, I don't doubt that Gillis moves him there. Yes, from a media standpoint it could hurt the general manager, but then the Cody Hodgson trade could have hurt the general manager and he did that anyway. A G.M. like Gillis does what he thinks is best for the team, regardless of media fallout. Toronto has a number of attractive roster options and they're out East, so it's conceivable that they make the most sense as a destination.
The real question is what kind of return Luongo would garner.
Some observers think that he'll be worth a lot; others feel that the return isn't likely to be much at all. I fall somewhere in the middle. I don't expect Vancouver to land a high-end player in exchange; instead I expect they'd have to take back some salary along with one or two good young players/picks.
There's another option here too, though: one imagines that Luongo might be just fine in Vancouver if he doesn't have to compete with Cory Schneider for the starting job. In other words, while I tend to agree with the consensus wisdom that the Canucks will deal Luongo, Mike Gillis may still have the option of moving Schneider in the off-season if the return is better and holding on to Luongo.
We'll certainly continue to speculate on what Luongo might garner in return until such time as he's actually dealt - and things are bound to heat up once we have a better idea of potential destinations. For the moment, though, it's enough to know that Luongo is pushing for a way out.
This makes me sad face. :(
The Canucks are damned if they do, damned if they don't...so trade him and get what you can...he's a good player with a bad contract - about the same value as a bad player with a good contract...what would really suck is if you're a player on the Canucks who has to get traded away with Bobby Lou to get the right return - what happens if your name is Mason Raymond...?
This is what I love about Canuck fans...
Here they are, leaders of the regular season for the second time in a row, and talk of trading away their franchise goalie is at a high after being booted out of the playoffs...
...and no one cares. Only 3 postings on the issue.
Way to go the Canucks!!!
Sad news tonight.....reports are coming out that Luongo tried to commit suicide this morning ......he jumped in front of a train..........ya, the train went between his legs. Another great canuck that should be selling cars.

Douglas County School Board President John Carson defended the district's financial reserves during the board's Feb. 5 meeting, saying the fund ensures a credit rating that saves taxpayers money.
"We as a board have set a 4 percent reserve," he said. "Some people think that's too high. I think in the economy and budget we're in, with fluctuations in revenue, it's the prudent thing to do. Not only prudent for the long-term planning and welfare of our district, but it obviously pays huge financial dividends back to the school district and taxpayers of Douglas County."
The comments stem from a recent bond refinancing that will save property owners about $3 a year for the next 17 years, and an assertion from a parent-led group that the fund balance is unnecessarily high.
"The cost of what it's taking away from the education system far exceeds the benefits," said Susan Meek, vice president of Strong Schools Coalition.
An underwriter praised the school board during its meeting for conservative financial policies that help feed an AA+ credit rating, one that ranks DCSD third among the state's 178 school districts.
"There were some impressive results here," he told the board.
Fitch Ratings reviewed the district's financials for a recently completed bond refinancing that dropped the interest rate from 5 percent to 2.99 percent. That paired with another refinancing in late 2012 will save taxpayers about $5 million, he said.
The county has about 110,000 taxable parcels, according to the assessor's office, for an annual savings of about $3 on each Douglas County property.
"It's great to capitalize on lower interest rates," said Laura Mutton, president of Strong Schools."But if you're withholding money from the schools in order to have a high bond rating and you're only saving taxpayers $3 a year, that's a questionable trade off. Especially at a time when schools have endured serious budget cuts from the state and parents are being asked to pay higher student fees."
For the first time in five years, the district plans no cuts in the coming academic year. Last year, it met an $18 million shortfall with money found in over-budgeted line items, as well as cuts to central administration and the high schools.
DCSD has an unrestricted fund balance of $86.7 million. The unrestricted funds are those limited for use by statutory requirements. Its unassigned fund balance — money the district has not earmarked for specific uses — is $18.1 million.
Meek, former DCSD spokeswoman, said the district has maintained a high credit rating for many years and through large fluctuations in the general fund balance.
DCSD has had an AA rating for several years running, and was assigned the AA+ in 2010.
Spokeswoman Cinamon Watson said the district "takes every opportunity to do everything we can to be good stewards of the taxpayer dollars. We're using it wisely, and producing a great product."
Meek and Mutton formed the now 600-member group to "inform, engage and positively impact the public schools in Douglas County," according to Strong School's website. They've criticized the district's fund balance, budgeting and time the board spends in executive sessions.

Looking back
The Rebels won both games during the week, defeating Alabama 87-83 at home on Senior Night and winning 81-67 at LSU on Saturday.
Ole Miss built a 19-point lead early in the second half against Alabama then held off the Crimson Tide's wild 3-point rally at the end.
In Baton Rouge, the Rebels took control mid-way through the first half and never let up. They led by as many as 19 points in the second half. Marshall Henderson led four players in double figures with 22 points. He was 4-for-9 from the 3-point line.
Looking ahead
The win secured a double bye for Ole Miss in the SEC tournament. The Rebels will be the last team to take the floor, playing Friday night at 9 against either Auburn, Texas A&M or Missouri, which will face the Tigers-Aggies winner on Thursday.
Who's hot
Jarvis Summers was solid at LSU with 15 points, five rebounds and six assists. He was 6-for-12 from the floor.
Who's not
Reggie Buckner had nine points and seven rebounds at LSU but was 3-for-9 from the floor and turned it over three times.
RPI watch
WarrenNolan.com has the Ole Miss RPI at 56 going into the SEC tournament. The RPIs for the Rebels' potential Friday opponents: Missouri 34, Texas A&M 97, Auburn 244.
Bottom Line
Ole Miss has 23 wins overall and a school-record tying 12 wins in the (newly expanded)SEC. Still the Rebels find themselves in need of a successful SEC tournament to have a chance for an NCAA at-large bid. Ole Miss hasn't played in the NCAA tournament since 2002.

Do you think Naruto would be a good movie if it was with real people
Do you think Naruto would be a good movie if it was with real people
i really dont know, probly not...
but really depends if they get sum realllllyyyy good effects artist
Err...looking at the DBZ trailer pics...and applying it to all manga/anime adaptations...NO
Please please please stop with the trainsition to live action...stop the horror! WHAT KIND OF WORLD ARE YOU SICK PEOPLE TRYING TO CREATE!
Why don't more people read these mangas?
In my opinion, if Naruto were to go live-action, it'd really really have to depend on who makes it. It could either go very good or it could go very very very very very VERY bad.
The worst it could go is like how Dragonball turned out:
If there was ever a time the saying "Don't judge a book by it's cover" really came into play, it would HAVE to be for this movie.
Damn you Archiel!!! You mentioned the Dragonball (Note: Dragonball, not Dragonball Z) trailer pics 1 minute before I did!! lol
its hard to adapt anime into live action for many reasons, one of the biggest of those are character design. american comics design are more human like, making movies like spiderman, batman, superman, ironman easier to make. all those movies really need are good storylines and good effect artist. manga and anime are different, the designs for characters dont translate well into real people. classic example would be for the dragonball z movie coming out. everyone knows what goku looks like, but can you imagine a person with goku's hair? and the colors of hair in manga, with all the pinks and greens and purples and blues. and costumes would be hard to recreate nicely. they'll have to change it, and we, the manga reading anime watching community, would complain about it. the only way that anime can be successfully put into live action is if the anime/manga itself had no outrageous designs, initial d live action was decent. people didnt complain to much about the characters.
imagine hollywood, or some other film people, try to make orochimaru, or jiraiya.
it wouldnt turn out good.
i think naruto would be a very cool movie look at all the things we can do now with 3D animationi it would be very cool
just check DB.. worst I should say..
3D should be good. With a FiNAL FANTASY LIKE graphics it should be a kick ass.
No more ramen for naruto.. That's bad news..
I guess that Naruto the movie could be a good idea BUT only if the story would be BASED on Naruto manga and not entirely copying it. What I mean to say is that some things wont look good on live, especialy some weird supernatural stuff( for example imagine real Gamakich or Fukasaku - that would be lame and sooooo childish, dont you think ? ). But of course there has to be things that make Naruto manga the way it is but somehow applyied on reality.
And very important thing - 18+ rating - just imagine those possibilities with sexy no jutsu, also would appreciate to see Naruto and Sakura moments( plus Hina ofcourse ), add some sexual background on some situations and more violence and gore

The rise of smart digital assets presents a compelling opportunity to extend process management to variable human-driven processes.
If you need to know which lines of business produce the most revenue or which factories have the most downtime, you can usually get the answer at most companies. But if you want to know the processes by which HR hires employees or engineers design products or marketing creates collateral, the answers aren't easy to find. As discussed in the previous article, the only parts of end-to-end processes that enterprises have visibility into are those closer to transactional systems—which focus on standardized tasks and ignore variable, human-driven processes that depend on the versatility people bring to their work.
In today's business environment, it is crucial to be able to manage human-driven processes with the same steady hand as transactional processes. The challenge is how to get there without investing heavily in detailed process modeling of every nook and cranny in the enterprise. A quick start is needed, one that takes advantage of process standardization driven by factors inherent to the activities themselves.
This quick start is now possible thanks to what PwC calls smart digital assets and their integration into an approach for process management that leverages existing business process management systems (BPMS) and collaboration and content management systems (CCMS). As noted in the first article of this issue of the Technology Forecast, we call this approach meta-process management. This article examines advances in three key technical areas that make our vision of meta-process management possible.

That's increasingly China's strategy when it comes to gold, and as the Red Dragon corners more of the market for this precious commodity, it means the rest of the world may soon face a functional shortage, explains Jeff Clark of Casey Research.
A number of market analysts and gold-industry insiders are warning about a possible shortage of gold supply.
Barrick Gold (BRK) CEO Jamie Sokalsky recently stated that since gold production is inelastic (i.e., insensitive to price changes), there will be a very limited increase in supply from gold producers, even during sharp increases in the gold price. Rick Rule, a billionaire and avid gold investor, pointed out that while we're seeing spectacular demand, a number of issues will make supply very tight in the future, especially among retailers.
The issues facing gold miners are well known: depletion of existing mines, lower grades, and fewer new discoveries—especially big and rich ones. Further, miners face increased calls for nationalization, demands from workers for higher pay or from local communities for better infrastructure, and—of course—environmental concerns.
Many mining company representatives say it's getting harder to not only find large deposits, but to get those deposits into production. Some estimate it now takes twice as long as to go from discovery to production versus a decade ago.
These warnings aren't always taken seriously, especially by those who see that mine production has been growing. At first glance, they're correct—but only if you look at the short-term picture.
The following chart shows that global mine production has indeed been rising since 2008. From 2009 through 2011, output rose an average of 3.9% per year. However, we know that a good chunk of this increase is due to China, and upon excluding its output, you can see how it alters the global picture.
What's important about China's production is that unlike most other countries, it doesn't reach the world market, since China doesn't export gold.
Further, while some point to the growth in production since 2008, output is still 12.8% below the year 2000 level. And there are reasons to believe the gap between global mine production vs. mine production excluding China could widen.

Virgin Blue Launches Melbourne â Coffs Coast Direct Flights06/11/2004
Virgin Blue will today launch a brand new service between Melbourne and Coffs Harbour on NSW's Coffs Coast as part of its on-going plan to expand its direct low fare network across Australia.
The airline will launch its weekly direct flight in response to strong connecting bookings as well as ongoing demand from locals who want to travel between the two key cities, be it for business or leisure.
Today's flight will depart Melbourne at 3.00pm and land in Coffs Harbour at 4.50pm heralding the second direct flight in and out of Coffs to compliment the existing daily direct flights to and from Sydney.
Virgin Blue will be the first airline in 15 years to operate a convenient non-stop Coffs - Melbourne flight in line with its hub-busting strategy to get people directly where they want to go.
Virgin Blue spokesperson Amanda Bolger said, "We've been noticing that a large number of people have been taking advantage of our connecting services to fly between the two cities and when there is demand like that, it makes sense to offer a direct option between Coffs Coast and the Victorian capital."
She continued, "While it's early days, forward bookings are trending well and we are excited to be venturing in to more domestic routes and helping nurture increased tourism opportunities for Coffs Coast."
The majority of flyers are expected to be travelling for pleasure to enjoy the delights of both destinations: Coffs Coast for its fantastic beaches, golfing and outdoor activities and Melbourne for its culture, culinary delights and shopping. It will also be convenient for the conference market with the Saturday direct flight and daily connecting flights.
Amanda Bolger continued, "There has been strong lobbying from our Guests as well as the tourism and business communities for Virgin Blue to begin services between Coffs Harbour and Melbourne and we have always been adamant that we will support the regions that support us. We will keep an eye on demand and if we fill the seats, we will obviously look at adding more flights in the future."
She added, "We pride ourselves on maintaining affordable fares while at the same time providing a high class service and we firmly believe that regional centres are great supporters of jet aircraft as it allows them to get to their destination quickly and in comfort", Amanda Bolger finished.
The weekly Saturday direct flight will depart Melbourne at 3.00pm and arrive in Coffs Harbour at 4.50pm before turning around and departing at 5.20pm and landing back in Melbourne at 7.25pm. Daily connecting flights will also be available via Sydney with both direct and connecting fares starting from $149* one way on the net.
* All fares are for flights booked on the Internet. $10 more by phone. Fares are subject to availability and may not be available on all flights or peak days.

The board provides assistance through grants and low-interest loans for the planning, construction, and maintenance of public facilities. The funds also help community agencies provide public services. The Community Impact Board's next regular funding meeting is scheduled for Dec. 2.

To mark Israel's 65th anniversary, JDC helped Jews in Bucharest, Romania organize not one but four celebrations.
Last weekend, over 130 community members came together to sing Israeli songs at a special Yom Ha'Atzmaut (Independence Day) Oneg Shabbat at the JDC-supported Bucharest Jewish Community Center (JCC).
Then, on Sunday, Israel Day drew 150 participants of all ages to the JCC. Families viewed a photo exhibit on Israel and sampled Israeli falafel; then the adults took part in a discussion of Israel's history and current events. Meanwhile, the children enjoyed holiday-themed arts and crafts activities, learned about remembrance and independence, and enjoyed a nature movie about Israel.
Monday evening was the really big show, with over 200 people taking part in "The White and Blue Street - Israel: 65 Years of Independence!"
An Israeli shuk (market) replete with delicious Israeli fare set the stage for the celebration; the JCC choir and individual performers filled the air with Israeli music, and participants came together to construct a large Israeli flag--using 65 pieces of paper to represent Israel's 65 years.
Not wanting to be left out of events, the JDC-supported JCCs in Oradea and Timisoara organized similar Yom Ha'Atzmaut celebrations.
Happy Birthday Israel!
