Northampton Saints kept their slim chances of making the Heineken Cup quarter-finals alive by beating Castres 18-12 on Friday.
Northampton kept their slim chances of making the Heineken Cup quarter-finals alive by beating Castres 18-12 in a try-less clash at Franklin's Gardens on Friday.
Saints must now go in search of a bonus-point victory over Glasgow next weekend and hope that is enough tp qualify as one of the best pool runners-up.
That scenario looks like a long shot but Northampton will see a silver lining in the fantastic performance from England lock Courtney Lawes, who was named Man of the Match.
In what was far from a classic encounter, two penalties apiece from Stephen Myler and Rory Kockott saw the sides go into the break level at 6-6. But the respective boots of Myler and Ryan Lamb garnered the win for Northampton, even though Kockott added a pair of three-pointers in the second period.
Despite going down at home to Ulster 25-6 in round three, the Saints hit back at their critics in the return encounter, overcoming the Irish province 10-9 at Ravenhill.
Although Northampton were still able to qualify from the pool as one of the best runners-up, the visitors were also in the race for the quarter-finals having emerged victorious in three of their games this season.
And they moved into the lead through South African scrum-half Kockott before Northampton hit back and levelled through a Myler penalty.
Northampton's fly-half then added his second from the tee to take the score to 6-3 in the home team's favour, but another three-pointer from Castres' half-back restored parity.
Anton Peikrishvili was sin-binned for the Top 14 outfit just before half-time, but the Saints failed to take advantage of the extra man.
Jim Mallinder's men eventually retook the lead after 50 minutes when Myler continued his form with the boot.
Substitute Lamb then extended the gap to 12-6 as the hosts took control. Kockott and Lamb then traded two penalties apiece late in the game as Northampton came away with the win.
The scorers:
For Northampton:
Pens: Myler 3, Lamb 3
For Castres:
Pens: Kockott 4

I have recently installed a Jacuzzi Cetra in a new bathroom in my existing basement. The bathroom is on a raised wood platform that has been constructed very level on the exisitng concrete floor. Any gaps below the new wood framing has been filled in with new concrete. The Jacuzzi installation instructions make no mention of using leveling compound on an existing level floor. The unit has come with 6 integral foam block feet that allow it to sit level. Is any further material really necessary? Thanks for your help.

Awesome Grip (impossible to compare).
Got one punctured, replaced with the "cheaper" Bridgestone DriveGuard, and changed back to these after a week.
These are sports tires! Meaning:
They are hard (No comfort in potholes and bumpy)
They are noisy.
They are Summer tires (don't try them on snow).
But, they grip the road like a magnet.

While it may feel like an all out tug-of-war between Blockbuster and Netflix, don't forget they aren't the only companies battling for market share. Redbox is fighting for kiosk space. Apple, Amazon, and Comcast are competing for movie download purchases. And Hulu will soon start its subscription-based service. Blockbuster is trying to fend off all these competitors, even as the company is mired in debt.
We spoke again with the company's CEO, Jim Keyes, to get his take on Netflix's recent comments with Fast Company (Click here for our first interview with the the Blockbuster chief, in case you missed it). Keyes spoke with us about how he's using the company's 28-day distribution advantage to Blockbuster's favor; the ways he's trying to turn the video-rental giant around, Steve Jobs-style; and why bankruptcy isn't interfering with the company's plans for success.
Fast Company: Blockbuster's 28-day distribution advantage gives the company a four-week leg up on Netflix for new releases. However, when I spoke with a rep from Netflix, he said this was something they actually heavily pushed for years ago. Who went to the studios first?
Blockbuster CEO Jim Keyes: We're both going to the studios all the time for different kinds of deals. I tried to emphasize before that our customer base is very different—our core focus is very different. Their focus is more on the longer-tail titles. Ours has traditionally been on new releases.
Why though, if this deal was so beneficial to Blockbuster, would Netflix have pushed for it so heavily?
It's a different business model. Theirs is a subscription model that focuses more heavily on older titles. Blockbuster has a broader range offering. The majority of our business—as much as 80%—has been in new releases.
Netflix has said that if customers "were really interested in a movie, they would've already seen it in the theater." Did Blockbuster do research before making this deal that showed otherwise?
Our research says it's about a $20 billion business for rental and retail, and approximately more than 60% of business for new releases is done in the first 30 days. The bulk of the business has traditionally been in new releases. People want rushed content. Our job is to provide it for them. There is also a market for the longer-tail content, and Netflix has made that their focus. The trade-off is one of economics. They were looking for a lower cost of goods, and were willing to accept a delay in the offering. For us, when Avatar is released, our customers want it that day, and we have it on a cross-channel basis.
One industry source I spoke with suggested that Blockbuster had little control over the 28-day deal with movie studios, and ended up committing "huge payments" for new releases because of the company's financial position. Is this not the case?
Our deals are very consistent with the economics of the past. We're pleased with the studios flexibility in allowing cross-channel availability—we're pleased with their continued support, and the ability to offer our customers what they want.
You've explained that Blockbuster is in the process of remodeling, yet everyone I speak with describes it less positively. One industry source even suggested that you were "whistling by the graveyard."
We're in the process of transformation. Think about Apple 10 years ago. Steve Jobs came back and did a masterful job. But it wasn't an overnight success. It took him a number of years to reengineer Apple and turn the company from what it was—basically a PC provider—into what it is today. I don't know if you recall, but there were questions about the long-term viability of that company, and look at the success that they have today. But it took many years.
But Steve Jobs returned, I believe, around 1997. By 1998, they released the iMac. What is the equivalent at Blockbuster?
The equivalent for Blockbuster is Blockbuster On Demand, which is the ultimate video on-demand experience.
So you see Blockbuster as another Apple?
I use that as an example. There are hundreds of examples of companies that are traditionally great brands, but had to transform themselves into a new business model. This is a pattern we see over and over. If a company is not able to keep up with the changing needs of its customer, it will become irrelevant. Our job is to keep pace with that change.
With Blockbuster's multi-channel platform, do you ever worry that customers will just do what's most convenient? For instance, won't a customer always choose a Redbox kiosk if it is closer? Or just use Comcast or iTunes if it's easier? Or, if a Netflix subscriber notices Avatar is unavailable, can't he or she just rent it from Blockbuster that one time? It's unclear why a customer would need to commit to Blockbuster as a subscriber, kiosk user, and on-demand customer. What about the fickle customer who might just use Blockbuster for a new release every now and again?
The advantage of cross-channel capability is all about convenience. In our case, if you receive a movie in the mail, and then watch it, you can go to the store and exchange it for, say, Alice in Wonderland—and you have immediate gratification. You don't have to wait for a queue. Very simply, we have more new movies than anyone else. If you're looking for a new release, you have a better chance of finding that at Blockbuster.
If there is an alternative closer to you, but you know you'll only get a new release at Blockbuster, we hope you'll be willing to travel that extra distance. If you're looking for a new release, but you're not sure it's been released on one of our competitors' services or on iTunes, we hope that customers will choose Blockbuster On Demand. They will count on us for new releases. Across all these platforms—on demand, in-store, kiosks—you have one account that just makes it easy for you. It's that one customer, one account convenience.
To create that convenience, Blockbuster has a kiosk system, subscription and on demand services, and in-store offerings. It almost feels like you're boxing an octopus: battling Netflix for subscribers, Redbox for kiosks, and Apple and Comcast for on-demand service. Do you ever feel like Blockbuster is stretching itself too thin?
It's an incredibly dynamic industry that's changing very quickly. But we do not look at this as a sprint, we look at this as a marathon. We want to provide a better long-term platform for our customers to give them the most convenient access whether physical or digital form. It takes time and resources, but we believe the outcome will be a better consumer proposition.
You've said remaking Blockbuster won't happen overnight—that it's a marathon. Do you ever worry that this is a situation where you need to remodel overnight, and that Blockbuster might not have time for a marathon?
We are going to move at the fastest pace possible. The customer change doesn't happen overnight. If you look at the acceleration of paid digital consumption of content, it isn't moving as quickly as we would all like. We'd all like to have movies move more quickly to video on-demand. That consumer adoption is moving steady, but not as quickly as anyone would like.
In the news lately, we've seen Blockbuster seeking $150 million debtor-in-possession financing. It's worth asking again: Is Blockbuster going bankrupt?
We're transforming not just the business model but the balance sheet. We've had two successful refinancings in the last 18 months, and we continue to work on finding the right capital structure to facilitate the business itself.
So Blockbuster is not going to file for bankruptcy protection?
As I've said, we're looking at all of the various options to refinance and recapitalize the company. I've said repeatedly that the company's objective is to seek out-of-court solutions with strategic investors to recapitalize, and we've been exploring a number of those alternatives.
If I look at Blockbuster's share, it's hovering around 30 cents; I've seen this $150 million debtor-in-possession loan recently; and I've also read that the company has around $900 million in debt. How do you convince an investor to stay with the company, and how do you bring in new investors?
As I've said, we're in the process of an overall business transformation, and we are trying to accomplish that transformation in a way that provides the greatest return for all of our stakeholders. That's our objective.
You recently told the Wall Street Journal that "this is not a time to sit on the sidelines for six months while the technology side of our business is dramatically changing daily." With Apple releasing its iPad, why hasn't Blockbuster created an app to rival Netflix's? Why wasn't Blockbuster on stage at WWDC, instead of Netflix, if you're trying to keep up with this rapidly changing technology?
We have taken a bit of a different path in the near-term. Our more aggressive push has been for download applications rather than streaming for portability. The limitation of streaming in a portable device is that you have to be in a strong 3G area or a Wi-Fi hotspot. It is somewhat inconsistent with the concept of portability. We believe in the download capability for Blockbuster On Demand into portable handsets like the HTC phone.
We took a little bit longer to introduce an iPhone app, and we will have an iPad app as well. It's just a question of priority, timing, and resources.
Can I get a sense of your feelings on the iPad and iPhone 4? I know Blockbuster's app is related to managing queues, but do you ever see a time when it could be used for movies?
They're terrific devices. Now, if you think about the different business models of Netflix and Blockbuster, Blockbuster's model is more directly competitive with Apple in the sense that we are a transactional-based service, offering movies à la carte. Netflix's subscription-based service doesn't conflict with the iTunes offering. It doesn't mean we won't make content available, but you don't see Amazon movie downloads yet either.
I don't mean this in a sarcastic way at all, but have you had a chance to use Netflix's iPad app? It's very popular, and I just wonder why Blockbuster would be against that type of streaming offering?
We're not against streaming. We have a terrific streaming service. I wish you'd try it.

London Irish eased their Premiership relegation concerns somewhat on Saturday with a 26-6 victory over Worcester Warriors.
London Irish eased their Premiership relegation concerns somewhat on Saturday with a crucial 26-6 victory over Worcester at Madejski Stadium.
Two first-half tries laid the foundations for London Irish, who emerged as comfortable victors.
The Exiles were searching for a response following a heavy defeat in the Premiership to Northampton, while Worcester were looking to string victories together following their win over Wasps.
The game's first try came just eight minutes in when Matt Garvey crashed over following great work from the forwards 20 metres from the Worcester try-line.
The conversion was missed but it took just 12 minutes for the hosts to add to their lead, as more dominant play from the home pack laid the foundations for Halani Aulika to score.
Again, the conversion was missed, before Alex Goode's penalty for the visitors not only got them off the mark but also put them to within a converted try.
Two Tom Homer penalties in the minutes that followed increased the deficit to 13, and, though Goode added a second penalty minutes before half-time, the Exiles were in a comfortable position with a 16-6 interval lead.
The hosts made the perfect start to the second half through a third try, scored by Chris Hala'ufia, and Homer's first successful conversion of the afternoon left Worcester with a great deal to do.
Homer then added his third penalty of the afternoon on 48 minutes to make it 26-6 but, though the Exiles appeared capable of racking up a big score, the Worcester defence was able to stem the tide – even if they were unable to find a way back into the contest with the ball in hand in the final 30 minutes.
The scorers:
For London Irish:
Tries: Garvey, 'Aulika, Hala'ufia

The Short Shop on the east side of Green River was the site for an armed robbery at 8:32 p.m. on March 8 . Two white males were in the store and one of them had purchased cigarettes showing the clerk a Kansas identification. The men were wearing black hoodies and carrying at least one handgun. They demanded money from the clerk and she gave them between $800-900. They left the Short Stop and headed west on I-70 in a 1990s model white Toyota vehicle.
At this point the robbery was called into the Emery County dispatch. Units were dispatched immediately to cover all of the highways in the Green River area including I-70 west and eastbound; the Grand County deputies covered the exits off I-70 heading eastbound and Carbon County deputies handled SR-6 and Wellington and the Price area.
It was the deputies on I-70 that located the vehicle. The deputies were in the Moore cut-off area. The suspect vehicle was stopped at MP 108 on westbound I-70. The responding deputies turned their lights on the vehicle and it pulled over. They conducted a felony stop. The suspects were ordered out of their vehicle one at a time with a loud speaker. The suspects responded one at a time and were taken into custody without further difficulty.
They were transported to the Emery County jail where they are awaiting charges from the Emery County Attorney's Office.
Deputies participating at the stop included: Shon Roper, Capt. Jeff Thomas, Garrett Conover and from Adult Probation and Parole was Wade Allinson. Other cooperating agencies included the Utah Highway Patrol, Carbon County units, Grand County units along with Wellington and Price City officers.
Emery County Sheriff Greg Funk said, "I am happy with the way this incident turned out. Everything worked out, everyone functioned the way they needed to. I am pleased with the quality of our deputies. They were calling me and wanting to go out on this incident. They were all ready and willing to help and respond and the fugitives are now in custody."
The two men captured are: Colton Fosburg, DOB 9-26-91; Lance McMahan DOB 12-12-91. They are from Kansas.
The Short Stop in Green River was also the site of a break-in at the Burger King on Jan. 21.

Thanks for the words of praise Kimmee. I guess I take it for granted that most people drive. I have had my license for quite some time and I guess I could not live without driving. It is all good though. If I never drove then I would not have anything to miss. I am glad that everyone is settling nicely. School is in full swing here for my little one. She is having a better year then last. She started 1st grade this year. She amazes me on how smart she is. Good luck on finding a job. I know the market is not that great for them. The economy here sucks and the market is just as bad. I had a friend get a job two months ago and he got laid off because of job cuts. That is the crappy thing living here. Well hope all is well and I will talk to you soon.

Skip to comments.Ted Cruz speech stokes 2016 speculation
Posted on 11/30/2012 6:40:52 AM PST by LoneStarGI
Texas Sen.-elect Ted Cruz advised the Republican Party to rebrand itself under a banner of Opportunity Conservatism during a sweeping speech Thursday night that will only stoke speculation about a 2016 presidential run.
Speaking before the conservative American Principles Project dinner at a downtown Washington hotel, Cruz said the GOPs thumping in the 2012 elections was more the result of poor messaging and communication than the wrong ideology.
Why did we lose? It wasnt as the media would tell you: because the American people embraced big government, Barack Obamas spending and debt and taxes.
That wasnt what happened. Im going to suggest to you a very simple reason why we lost the election: We didnt win the argument, Cruz said before pointedly lowering his voice. We didnt even make the argument.
(Excerpt) Read more at politico.com ...
This is a great start, I don't know who this guy is but he's singing my song.
" We didnt even make the argument.
But he'll have to prove it - having a hispanic surname isn't enough.
And I completely reject the charge the GOP takes a 'harsh tone' on immigration. That assertion is ridiculous.
Absolutely correct. And it's mostly because Romney and the leadership that pushed him really didn't believe those principles themselves, so therefore they could hardly be expected to argue them.
I hope people like Cruz can just shove the old guard aside and get out there with the message.
Paging Sarah Palin.
(there is an opportunity, but it is right now)
IBTB - Ted Cruz is the son of US Citizens, he is nbC.
He's got my attention. I'm listening.
Cruz is absolutely the real deal.
Now...that said....he was born in Canada to US citizens, but his father was a Cuban refugee who was naturalized.
So wouldn't many here say he is not eligible for POTUS?
Should GOP ever get Senate majority, Cruz should be a longterm Senate Majority Leader. He could arguably do more for the country if he held onto that gavel for say 24 years, then a mere 8 as POTUS.
I am with you. Cruz, arrives in the Senate as one of the most capable people in an elected position. Even though he is new to that group, he is highly seasoned in DC and politics. Cruz, DeMint, Lee, Rubio, Toomey, and governors like Kasich, Walker, Perry need to work together to meet with potential candidates for 2016 and back them in a uniformed manner heading into the primaries. We need these people with core conservative beliefs to represent the base and screen our options, promote the candidate early, and help bankroll them against the 'chosen' RNC candidate (most likely Jeb or Christie).
We can't do what happened the last cycle and let a bunch of random conservative minds take each other down. I am all for an open process..as opposed to using king makers, but we need some organization from our top leaders to prepare to get a real conservative as the nominee.
I voted for him for Senate but as of yet, he's held no office. We don't know much about him. He has no experience or history. As of now, I'd vote NO for any presidental talk.
Boy, I like what he's saying, but the lesson of history is that pols who've never even won statewide election don't get elected President - or even into the finals (ref. Michele B.)
But he's right on the money with this message and if he can be one of the voices who brings the message of conservatism to masses of people who won't get it via their news source (i.e. MSM), aren't going to listen to Rush for 3 hrs/day, etc - more power to him.
Unless a candidate embraces the confession of faith that includes soft immigration language and policy, he or she will never be supported.
BUT if a conservative third party movement develops in this cycle there are a number of possibilities...
And regular conservatism doesn't provide opportunity?
Another attempt to create distance from the brand, while tarnishing it through the effort.
Exactly. My new senator doesn't have a chance. The RNC RINO factory probably has everything lined up till 2032.
Maybe — but another way of putting it is:
"Unless we have articulate messengers who are able to present Conservatism and liberty as the way to truly improve lives and create wealth and opportunity for all, then we'll be sitting here 3 1/2 years from now bitching about Republican nominee Jeb Bush".
Screw talk of who's going to run in 2016! Let's talk about who, when, and how "we" are going to change the narrative and STOP relying on the RNC to tell us who our candidate is going to be!
..I understand what you are saying, but I tend believe that the evidence shows that welfare and race lost this election--they just wanted the stuff...
"Opportuniy Conservatism", sounds too much like "Compassionate Conservatism." Besides, didn't Newton Gingrich and others years ago form the "Conservative Opportunity Society"? Both ideas, opportunity and conservatism, just died "on the vine," as Newt was misquoted as having said about Medicare.
The argument hasn't been made since 1988...
"Now...that said....he was born in Canada to US citizens, but his father was a Cuban refugee who was naturalized."
Uh oh. Problems here.
Even if his parents were natural born citizens (without the "naturalized Cuban refugee" aspect to contend with), they would have had to take certain steps after the birth (paperwork, etc.), to ensure that the birth would be considered "natural born".
The fact that completely natural-born parents (for example, John McCain's parents) have a baby OUTSIDE of the USA, in itself, does not make the child natural-born.
Again, this is a "danger, Will Robinson!" situation that will come back at him later on, unless he proves conclusively that the p's and q's were taken to qualify his birth as "natural-born".
Why can't we find a candidate who's parents were born _here_, and who was born _here_ as well?
I agree with you - it's going to be Rubio...and I suggest it will be Portman for VP...
Cruz is too fresh but very capable and has argued in front of the Supremes defending conservative values...
I do believe that Rubio is not eligible under the constitution but that arguement isn't that relevant anymore since the destruction of that constitutional clause... and quite frankly, though I should, I just can't care about that anymore after Obama's fraud !!!
It also seems particularly important that the experience is executive, such as a governorship, rather than congressional or senatorial.
Either way, he needs a lot more 'show me wax the car, show me paint the fence' time.
"I hope people like Cruz can just shove the old guard aside and get out there with the message."
Given how the Geriatric Old Plotters were able to invert the gains of 2010 into the failure of 2012, I wouldn't bet the farm on this happening.
"pols whove never even won statewide election dont get elected President"
US Senator, won statewide.
I (strongly) disagree:
Go to the store and take a look at any label. It will say "Made in China".
Every one of those items was once, made in America.
What we have done is drive manufacturing out of America, in the process creating DEMOCRATS.
We must bring back jobs to America.
That will create more Republicans.
The thing is, this must happen immediately.
There is no more time to delay.
Another Senator?
One who hasn't even taken his seat yet!!!!!
The election of Obama lowered the bar to ground level.
Cruz, get a decade of experience — some of which should be executive, not all legislative.
Senators are professional bloviators. We already have one of those in the WH.
Cruz was born in Canada. He can't run for pres.
Sorry, Cruz's Mom and Dad were Cuban exiles and naturalized after he was born in USA.
Unless we conservatives are willing to follow the dems lead and disregard the Constitution, Ted is not NBC. Cruz has been doing Constitutional speeches since high school, he loves the Constitution and would probably be the last to not honor it by trying to skirt the NBC clause.
As a staunch Conservative Texan I supported Cruz against the odds and against the Texas GOPe, because he is the most truly conservative America loving politician (well maybe my Congressman Louie Gohmert, too) to come along in a long time.
Cruz will be a leader! But not POTUS, maybe President of Republic of Texas!!!
Yes, I think advance preparation is the key. We shouldn't forget that Romney had been running, with his own money, basically since leaving his governorship, so he had had years to build up influence with the party leaders. That was an unusual situation, but the principle is valid for anybody: start now, state your case, build alliances, build a track record, and have your organization in place.
I don't think everybody has to agree on one candidate yet, but we should have a few viable possibilities and we should really focus only on those who are actually willing to declare that they are in the running. I other words, not just people who we like, hoping that somehow, someday they'll take the plunge and become candidates; they have to be ready to take the heat starting now.
And we've got to stop reducing our response to candidates that we don't like to idiotic name-calling and insults. Aside from creating a bitter, ugly environment, it does nothing to help us get a good candidate or one who's willing to develop his ideas in response to legitimate criticism.
Also...no more open primaries. Those laws have got to be changed now.
Nope, he is a US citizen born to US parents, and didnt need to be be naturalized.
If you aren't an alien, and US law does not require you to become naturalized to be a citizen (like Cruz), then you are NBC.
There are two levels of citizenship discussed in the Constitution. You must be a citizen to be in Congress or Senate. (meaning naturalized is ok, this is beyond dispute today that a naturalized citizen can run for congress)
The other is that you must be a natural born citizen to be president or VP.
So unless there is another type of citizenship somewhere that i cannot find, other "citizens" are natural born. Also, the Constitution does not define this term "natural born".
The process for deciding who needs to be naturalized, and who gains citizenship upon birth was left entirely to congressional legislation.
Here's the current law that decides it,
"Article 1, Section 8, Clause 4, also allows the Congress to create law regarding naturalization, which includes citizenship.
Currently, Title 8 of the U.S. Code fills in the gaps left by the Constitution. Section 1401 defines the following as people who are citizens of the United States at birth:
Anyone born inside the United States *
Any Indian or Eskimo born in the United States, provided being a citizen of the U.S. does not impair the persons status as a citizen of the tribe
Any one born outside the United States, both of whose parents are citizens of the U.S., as long as one parent has lived in the U.S.
Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year and the other parent is a U.S. national
Any one born in a U.S. possession, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year
Any one found in the U.S. under the age of five, whose parentage cannot be determined, as long as proof of non-citizenship is not provided by age 21
Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)
A final, historical condition: a person born before 5/24/1934 of an alien father and a U.S. citizen mother who has lived in the U.S.
* There is an exception in the law the person must be subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. This would exempt the child of a diplomat, for example, from this provision.
Anyone falling into these categories is considered natural-born, and is eligible to run for President or Vice President. These provisions allow the children of military families to be considered natural-born, for example."
The way i read this, is that if Obama was born in a grass hut, he would be a natural born citizen as long as Satnley Ann Dunham was his real mom.
According to this law, Ted Cruz is fully eligible.
" - - - We didnt even make the argument. - - - "
The RINO Election Campaign motto might as well be: "LOSE AT ALL COSTS !"
Order of business #1? CLOSE the primaries!
My mistake, Road Glide is right, Cruz was born in Canada while his parents were on their way to the USA.
..I think you have a point. This solves a lot of potential citizenship status problems for the establishment. Also I think the stories about George P. are trial balloons to see if the public will swallow continuing with the dynasty
"...he was born in USA."
He was born in CANADA!!!!
"Cruz was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where his parents, Eleanor Darragh and Rafael Cruz, were working in the petroleum business. His father was a Cuban immigrant during the Cuban Revolution to the United States. His mother, an American, was reared in Delaware, in a family of Irish and Italian descent."
Read in in Google.
Hate it having to admit being wrong.
This on Ted in Wiki:
Cruz was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where his parents, Eleanor Darragh and Rafael Cruz, were working in the petroleum business.[8][9] His father was a Cuban immigrant during the Cuban Revolution to the United States. His mother, an American, was reared in Delaware, in a family of Irish and Italian descent
This NBC thing is so conveluted, maybe Cruz is NBC.
Opportunity Conservatism NO! Remember the last time we put a word in front of "conservatism" to qualify for more voters?"
I couldn't resist. Your statement with your name, LiberConservative. Ironic!
LOL! I like it!
"No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President."
THAT is the NBC clause in it's entirety. The constitution never mentions all the things we often hear about what constitutes NBC. That was left for congress to decide by legislation. The constitution only mentions two kinds of citizens. Citizens and Natural Born. If you are a citizen without needing naturalization, you're NBC. There is no third class. It isn't naturalized citizens, then NBC, and then some oddball group in the middle that is a limited citizen with some limits, but never needing naturalization.
Cruz is eligible. There's not even a question under the constitution, or under the law.
George P. cannot become pres because at the time of his birth, Columba was not a U.S. citizen. She became naturalized 13 years later after his birth...1987.
"That shows how out of touch the GOPe are."
They are not out of touch, they are just as opposed to grassroots conservatives and individual liberty as are the Democrats. They are not stupid. They are very cunning Quislings.
Your head was filled with concrete at birth.
If you keep you mouth closed, no one will be the wiser.
He can claim he was born in Hawaii, and we can make up a birth certificate that says so. MSPublisher, Corel Ventura, MS Word, etc.
Heck, we can probably even get it faxed to Dan Rather's favorite Kinko's.
I think he is NBC. And I see all kinds of things offered as "requirements", but not one of them is in there in the Constitution to read, or in the law that i know of. I hear some say both parents must be NBC, That Cruz's dad being naturalized would knock him out, i hear that Obamas mom cannot give citizenship to Obama unless she was 18, etc etc.
But we are left with the clause in the constitution, and with the law defining who does not need to be naturalized. People dress it up with a lot of opinions, but i cannot see anything, anywhere, that creates some citizens by birth, who do not possess full rights.
Excellent idea.

If Steve Cominsky's hunch is right, there's a "very good chance" that movie and music star Justin Timberlake could show up for the opening of Colorado's first Southern Hospitality Restaurant & Bar at 1433 17th St.
Timberlake, who along with two partners created the New York-based barbecue and Southern food eatery, no longer has a financial stake in the restaurant but "still aligns himself with the brand," said Cominsky, chief operating officer of Southern Hospitality Franchisee Holding Corp., which owns the exclusive franchise rights to expand the brand. "He's a big supporter."
One rising music star who will definitely be around for the late January opening is Colorado Springs native Ryan Tedder, lead singer of the band OneRepublic, who remains an investor.
"Ryan lives in town and has a studio in Denver," Cominsky said. "He'll be around the restaurant for the first couple of weeks."
Cominsky and his team have the franchise rights to open 30 Southern Hospitality restaurants throughout the country. The Denver restaurant will open for dinner only to start, with plans to add lunch by early February.
The menu includes Memphis-style barbecue, dry-rubbed spare ribs, sweet and saucy baby-back ribs, crispy fried pickles and creamy cheddar grits. The bar list includes a selection of micro-brews on tap, an extensive list of bottled beers and a variety of bourbon.
For more information, go to www.shdcrestaurants.com.
Game of Giving
With the Broncos clinching the AFC West title and the team's sound drubbing of the Cleveland Browns, there's a chance Denver's team will be New Orleans-bound in February.
Since we can't all make it to NOLA for the festivities, you can celebrate in town during the second annual Game of Giving fundraiser at Casselman's Bar & Venue, 2620 Walnut St., on Feb. 3.
The annual Super Bowl watching party benefits Metro Volunteers, Families First and Florence Crittenton Services of Colorado Parent & Child Foundation.
Tickets are $25 for admission, a food buffet (from Elway's, Jason's Deli, Y.Lo Catering and Garbanzo's), free beer and one prize drawing ticket to win items including restaurant gift cards, signed sporting goods, event tickets and more.
Tickets: www.casselmans.com.
Panzano adds space
Panzano restaurant inside The Hotel Monaco at 909 17th St. has added 415 square feet of private dining space adjacent to the bar.
The room, dubbed Toscana, features an expansive view of Champa Street through a large glass window wall opposite a wine wall that holds 450 bottles from the restaurant's award-winning wine list.
"We're excited to expand our offerings and create this unique space for our guests," said Panzano General Manager Josh Mayo. "The street view from this new room makes it a great addition to our private dining spaces."
The new space will seat 20 guests for a seated dinner at counter-high tables and chairs. Up to 40 guests can use the space "reception style" for cocktails and appetizers. The new room is equipped with a 52-inch high-definition flat-screen TV designed for professional presentations.
Executive Chef Elise Wiggins will be available for events in this new venue. When Toscana is not reserved for private events, Panzano's happy hour will expand into the new room.

Halfway through the 142nd British Open, Muirfield Golf Club has been the dominant story. The other? 49-year-old Miguel Angel Jimenez, who leads by a shot at 3 under par. But 36 holes remain. Here are five things to watch leading into the weekend:
ESPN's live broadcast begins at 7 a.m. ET.
Under fire again: Muirfield was running hot again, and so were some of the players. Royal & Ancient officials did water the greens Thursday night after hearing complaints from numerous players, but sunny skies and winds helped keep the course firm and fast. Lee Westwood hit a drive on 15 that rolled into a bunker, center of the fairway, 400 yards from the tee. Charl Schwartzel said, "You can hit good shots and get all sorts of results. And it's not that exactly fair, in my eyes." Schwartzel, even so, shot a 68. "Coming down the hills, the greens are running out still," Tiger Woods said after an even-par 71 kept him at 2 under. The forecast is for more sun, more heat and more wind. How fast is Muirfield going to get?
Will it be time to light a cigar? Fun-loving, wine-drinking, cigar-smoking (but only before or after the round) Miguel Angel Jimenez is alone in front after 36 holes at a major championship for the first time. The Spaniard -- who at 49 would be the oldest major champion in history -- has top-10 finishes in each of the four majors, but he's never really been a serious contender on the weekend. Could this be the time?
A NEW FACE FOR GOLF: What if Jimenez wins?
Crouching Tiger: There is nothing hidden about Tiger Woods' ability to haunt the field when he's high on the leaderboard. After two rounds, he is tied for second (one back of the leader). The presence of Woods looming doesn't pack quite the punch it did five years ago, but everybody on the leaderboard knows that Woods is there. Woods talked of the difficult conditions Friday, which is another arrow in his quiver. Woods prepares in every type of condition, and the harder the work, the bigger advantage he thinks he has. A confident Tiger Woods is a danger in any tournament.
WOODS: In position to make a move
Patience could pay off: After his round of 74 on Friday, Phil Mickelson preached patience for the weekend, and that is probably good advice for everyone in the field. Jimenez is the leader at 3 under, which means there are 57 golfers within 10 strokes of the lead. And the way the golf course is taking back strokes, it would behoove everyone to play within their games. Among those who are tied for 11th or better are 10 major champions.
LEADERBOARD: 142nd British Open
For England: It's been a huge year for England, starting last summer at the 2012 London Olympics and continuing with Justin Rose's historic win at the U.S. Open last month. How about another English winner? Lee Westwood, regarded by many as the best player never to win a major, is in prime position after 36 holes at 2 under, one off the lead. Westwood got to as low as 5 under for the tournament Friday and finished with a 3-under 68. Key to that was his putter. "I'm getting it on line nicely, and I've gauged the pace of the greens as well," he said. Westwood is trying to become the first Englishman to win the British Open since Nick Faldo in 1992.

We all have our favorite dressings for wounds. As the cost of healthcare continues to be an issue, it is good to look at the effectiveness AND cost of dressings. This recent article (full reference below) in the Archives of Surgery attempts to look at both.
They compared the gauze dressings
gauze mostly has been used in local wound care, mainly because of its low price and simplicity. The rationale behind this conventional wound management is to absorb exudation from the wound to keep it dry and clean enough to avoid bacterial contamination (also known as the wet-to-dry approach).
and occlusive dressings
Around the 1950s, a new concept of wound management was introduced. This method aimed at occluding the wound to protect against bacteria while keeping it moist to supply growth factors and prevent crust formation, which would impede wound healing.
The study was limited to wounds in adult surgical patients who were admitted to the hospital and had open wounds that required local wound care. The patients were then randomly placed into the occlusive (141 patients) or gauze-based (136 patients) local wound care.
Excluded were patients with burn wounds or ulcerating malignancies, surgically closed wounds, wounds treated with vacuum-assisted closure devices, ostomies or drain openings, and pin holes from external fracture fixation materials and patients receiving chemotherapy or local irradiation therapy or with a life expectancy less than 6 months.
Pain, costs, and healing were all accessed. In their study, few patients in either group need analgesics for dressing changes. Pain in both groups were similar. The number of dressing changes per day was, of course, lower for the occlusive than the gauze dressing group by almost half. The median time needed for each dressing application was nearly the same (4.8 min for occlusive and 5.0 min for gauze).
All dressings used and materials needed for redressing the wounds were counted. Commercial prices of dressing materials and wages of nurses (nurse assistant, 7.00 [US $10.98] per hour; trainee, 11.25 [$17.65] per hour; registered and senior, 19.15 [US $30.05] per hour) in the various working shifts as of January 1, 2005, were used to calculate material costs.
Daily costs of occlusive dressing materials were significantly higher. Nursing time costs per day were higher when gauze was used. However, the total costs were higher for the occlusive dressing group. The number of days spent in the hospital was longer for the occlusive group than the gauze dressing group.
occlusive, 6.43 [US $9.95] vs gauze, 1.85 [US $2.90]; P < .001)
nursing time costs per day (occlusive, 1.28 [US $2.01] vs gauze, 2.41 [US $3.78]; P < .001)
total costs per patient per day of hospital stay (7.48 [US $11.74]) when occlusive wound management was applied than for the gauze-based treatment (3.98 [US $6.25]; P = .002).
Median duration of hospitalization was 18 days (IQR, 8-36 days) in the occlusive dressings group, which was slightly but significantly (P = .02) higher than the 13 days (IQR, 6-27 days) in the gauze dressings group.
There was no significant difference in wound healing time found between the two groups. The authors conclusions would support using gauze dressings over occlusive ones.
The occlusive, moist-environment dressing principle in the clinical surgical setting does not lead to quicker wound healing or less pain than gauze dressings. The lower costs of less frequent dressing changes do not balance the higher costs of occlusive materials.

When Minoru Yamasaki was selected for the design of the twin towers of the World Trade Center, the New York Times noted: "Mr. Yamasaki is considered one of the country's foremost architects". As if to confirm that statement, four months later on January 18, 1963, he was on the front cover of Time Magazine surrounded by parts of his buildings following in the footsteps of Frank Lloyd Wright, Eero Saarinen and Edward Durell Stone.

2. For the purpose of these rules, the phrase "members present and voting" means members present and casting an affirmative or negative vote. Members who abstain from voting are considered as not voting.
Methods of voting
Rule 49
Subject to rule 55 the Governing Council shall normally vote by show or hands, but any representative may request a roll call, which shall then be taken in the alphabetical order of the names of the members, beginning
With the member whose name does lot draw by the President.
Recording of roll call
Rule 50
The vote of each member participating in a roll call shall be recorded in the relevant documents of the Governing Council.
Conduct during voting
Rule 51
After the President has announced the beginning of voting, no representative shall interrupt he voting except on a point of order in connection with the actual conduct of the voting. The President may permit members to explain their votes, either before or after the voting, except when the votes are taken by secret ballot. The President may limit the time to be allowed for such explanations. The President shall not permit the proposer of a proposal or of an amendment to explain his vote on his own proposal or amendment.
Division of proposals or amendments
Rule 52
A representative may move that parts of a proposal or of an amendment shall be votes on separately. If objection is made to the request for division, the motion for division shall be voted upon. Permission to speak on the motion for division shall be given only to two speakers in favour and two speakers against. If the motion for division is carried, those parts of the proposal or of the amendment, which are subsequently approved, shall be put to the vote as a whole. If all operative parts of the proposal or the amendment shall be considered to have been rejected as a whole.
Voting on amendments
Rule 53
1. When an amendment is moved to a proposal, the amendment shall be voted on first. When two or more amendments are moved to a proposal, the Governing Council shall vote first on the amendment furthest removed in substance from the original proposal and then on the amendment next furthest removed therefrom and so on until all the amendments have been put to the vote. Where, however, the adoption of one amendment necessarily implied the rejection of another amendment, the latter amendment shall not be put to the vote. If one or more amendments are adopted, the amended proposal shall then be voted upon. If no amendments are adopted, the proposal shall be put to the vote in its original form.
2. A motion is considered an amendment to a proposal if it adds to, deletes from or revises part of that proposal.
Voting on proposals
Rule 54
1. If two or more proposals relate to the same question, the Governing Council shall, unless it decides otherwise, vote on the proposals in the order in which they have been submitted. The Governing Council may, after each vote on a proposal, decide whether to vote on the next proposal.
2. Any motions requiring that no decision be taken on the substance of such proposals shall, however, be considering as previous questions and shall be put to the vote before them.
Rule 55
All elections shall be held by secret ballot unless otherwise decided by the Governing Council.
Rule 56
1. If, when one person or member only is to be elected, no candidate obtains in the first ballot the majority required, a second ballot shall be taken restricted to the two candidates obtaining the largest number of votes. If the second ballot the votes are equally divided, the President shall decide between the candidates by drawing lots.
2. In the case of a tie in the first ballot among the candidates obtaining the second largest number of votes, a special ballot shall be held for the purpose of reducing the number of candidates to two. In the case of a tie among three or more candidates obtaining the largest number of votes, a second ballot shall be held. If a tie results among more than two candidates, the number shall be reduced to two by lot and the balloting, restricted to them, shall continue in accordance with the preceding paragraph.
Rule 57
1. When two or more elective places are to be filled at one time under the same conditions, that candidate obtaining the required majority on the first ballot shall be elected.
2. If the number of candidates obtaining such majority is more than the number of places to be filled, those candidates obtaining the largest number of votes shall be elected.
3. If the number of candidates obtaining such majority is less than the number of places to be filled, there shall be held additional ballots to fill the remaining places, the voting being restricted to the candidates obtaining the greatest number of votes in the previous ballot, who shall number not more than twice the places remaining to be filled. However, in the case of a tie between a greater number of unsuccessful candidates, a special ballot shall be held for the purpose of reducing the number of candidates to the required number.
4. If three restricted ballots are inconclusive, unrestricted ballots shall follow in which votes may be cast for any eligible person of member. Of three such unrestricted ballots are inconclusive, the next three ballots (subject to exception in the case similar to that of the tie mentioned at the end of the previous paragraph of this rule) shall be restricted to the candidates obtaining the greatest number of votes in the third of the unrestricted ballots. The number of such candidates shall not be more than twice the places remaining to be filled.
5. The following three ballots there after shall be unrestricted and so on, until the places are filled.
Equally divided votes
Rule 58
If a vote is equally divided on matters other than elections, the proposal shall be regarded as rejected.

"Donatos originated the 'Edge to Edge' pizza, which doesn't have a rim of dough," says company spokesman Tom Santor. "As a result, we can put at least 100 pieces of pepperoni on each large 14-inch pepperoni pizza. The pepperoni goes on top of a layer of aged smoked provolone - we don't use mozzarella cheese - so it can cook properly and so the flavors blend well. Thanks to the proprietary formula for our pepperoni, which is about 25 percent leaner than most, the finished pizza has 'edge-to-edge' coverage without excessive oil."
McDonalds also freed Grote to focus on food, which he calls his strong suit. When asked whether Donatos pizza was changed while under McDonalds as many long-time Donatos customers insist it was - he chuckled."Its horse hockey," he said. "Thats what I was most nervous about after the acquisition, especially with our classic thin crust. The only thing we did was developed a proofing system that proofed it longer and gave it a little more flavor. Weve got the same dough recipe, the same sauce, the same pepperoni - those specs are tied in as tight as you can tie them."

MY BRAIN HAS BEEN COMPLETELY BLOWN!!!! Kishi really outdid himself in this chapter, I mean I dont even know where to begin?
1) Madara did awaken the Rinnegan and gave it to Nagato
this to me was when my brain began to shutdown cause I thought Nagato awakened the Rinnegan by himself, but to discover that Madara gave it to him is incomprehensible
2) The Gedou Mazou is the empty shell of the Jyuubi
I had to read this page again cause as aforementioned, my brain started to shut down after the first discovery, but this made me brain dead. This whole time what the Jyubi looked like but never knew it and Madara was able to turn it into a catalyst for Hashirama clones, which is basically what White Zetsu is.
This chapter explains alot about Madara and in essence, it makes Madara God like, which means Hashirama must of been invincible cause if Madara lost to him, then just how powerful was Hashirama?
to awaken the Rinnegan a person needs the power of the Senju+Uchiha. We know Naruto is the one that will unite the bijuus once again, so will he awaken the Rinnegan and use/need it to control the Jyubi?

#1 – This A list celebrity/singer has been only having sex with his much much younger girlfriend when she can get pregnant. He wants the money pie.
Marc Anthony
Getting tied up by Gary Busey is looking pretty good now. I know it is sorta evil to say but he even managed to have ugly kids with Jlow…ReplyCancel
Were gonna have to figger out how one of the hugest stars in the entire Latin community needs the money train/pie.ReplyCancel
Get it, Bro. Put yer deposit in that ATM machine.ReplyCancel
He's known to be heavily in debt and owes millions in taxes. His ex-wife before Jennifer Lopez is trying to sue him for more child support. The low amount he pays her in child support compared to other A listers is very revealing. He supposedly lives way beyond his means.ReplyCancel
the chick he is with probably would not give him the time of day if he was not with Jlow prior…she is probably an insecure mess with daddy issuesReplyCancel
In his defense, have you seen her Fly Girls days? Def not a good look…ReplyCancel
I didn't know the 18 year pension worked the same way for fathers – I mean wouldn't his Latino manhood be compromised by asking for child support and then you actually have to get sole custody of the kids and you better be sure Daddy had his will and her will done up by the best lawyers money can buyReplyCancel
Get money markReplyCancel
@Kathleen she wants $100,000+ a month for the 2 kids. Hes paying $13,000 and paying JLo for those kids too. He makes at least 13 million/yr.ReplyCancel
That thing I do right before my comments are deleted for being offensively linked to a cartoon of Skeletor? 🙂ReplyCancel
Blotter really wants to snuff out @7ReplyCancel
*Blogger* and I even corrected it and the troll did its own thingyReplyCancel
Entry must be a craps player…ReplyCancel
I keep missing all your comments, 7! I'm always one step behind blogger.ReplyCancel
@Tina: He wouldn't have to get sole custody to get support, he would just have to show a large difference in the lifestyle he can afford to provide compared to what she can afford. If he is worth $40mill and she is worth $400mill, a judge will give him support no matter where the kids are.
Ex: My ex has custody of our kid. Say she marries a millionaire brain surgeon. I can go to court and get the support redone. The county would compare their combined incomes to my income and come up with a support amount, likely granting me support so I could provide a comparable environment for our child.ReplyCancel
@sandy, right?!
@Snit, the gf's dad is the gazillionaire owner of the giant British chain TopShop.ReplyCancel
I never got his appeal either.ReplyCancel
If *I* were a multibillionaire heiress, and *my* sparkely new love only wanted to get frisky approximately 1.5 ish weeks out of any given lunar cycle, I'd be rather put out.
And, dear me, if he tried to take *my* vaginal temperature, it wouldn't be welcome.
But maybe she's different like that.ReplyCancel
@snit: he gets custody of the baby and the girlfriend has to pay him child support for 18 years.ReplyCancel
@Kathleen – oooh, interesting. I'm not surprised though. Aside from his recent hit with Pitbull, he's not exactly a regular in the charts, is he?ReplyCancel
It's just a shame she doesn't have her sights set on a nice man more her age who hasn't been around the block so many times, so to speak … someone like Princess Caroline of Monaco's son, Andrea, would be fantastic for her! (Although not him – he has a partner and I think a child, too)ReplyCancel
Two very different species of Eurotrash here @Stepforded.
The Green heiress is the platform 12 inches heels, one pound of foundation, fake eyelashes, stumbling out of pubs knackered type. The Grimaldis have a bit more class (it hurts to say but it is so) than that.

The Sher-Wood T90 Undercover Comp Goalie Stick is a great new option for 2012, offering an impressive look and lightweight feel.
The T90 Undercover is similar to the T90 goal stick in construction yet comes in slightly lighter. Sher-Wood is using what they are calling D-Flector + technology, a proprietary construction that features cross-linked membrane inserted on both sides of the paddle that helps with rebound control. Reducing the vibration on impact is a Vibration Reduction Foam Core ++, light high-density foam that is wrapped with high modulus carbon fiber that keeps the stick lightweight, yet gives excellent vibration dampening and great control over rebounds. The T90 undercover is using a Power Inner Core +, that is layers of material strategically positioned to capture and distribute energy across the paddle for greater vibration absorption. Keeping this stick at a perfect balance, Sher-Wood is using their Equilibrium technology. The weight of the blade, paddle and shaft have been balanced, allowing the goalie to have better puck control while keeping the fatigue down on your blocker hand. Sher-Wood has opted to use their Tradfeel shaft design, squared walls with rounded corners that give the goalie a very traditional feel.
Sher-Wood's been designing hockey sticks and protective gear for over 60 years and continues to make high quality products. The Sher-Wood T90 Undercover is an excellent lightweight, durable goal stick that is suitable for any playing level.

Ways to get involoved with the Academic Senate (pdf)
Senate Appointee to Governance Committee Guidelines (pdf)
Committee report - for Governance Committee representatives
Volunteering for Senate Task Forces and Committees:
How do I get involved?
Periodically, a call for volunteers willing to serve as Senate appointees to committees and task forces will go out. To volunteer, just respond to the email.
Let us know if you've volunteered for a particular committee in the past and whether you were appointed. (This gives us some history.)
I volunteered. Now what?
Your name will be added to your preferred committee as a possible appointee and forwarded to the Senate.
Please be patient since the appointment process may take a while.
What is the "appointment process"?
The Senate Executive committee agrees on an appointee.
An email is sent to the appointee by the Governance Coordinator asking for an "accept or decline" response.
Once all appointments are made, a notice is sent letting everyone know who was appointed.
Why does this process take so long?
The appointment may be to serve as a Senate representative or as a joint representative, known as "Other Faculty," on which both the Senate and the Guild must agree. This process can take time to work through.
Sometimes, there are as many as 5-8 people volunteering for a committee that only needs one person, so you may not get on the committee the first time you volunteer.
Not getting appointed shouldn't dissuade you from volunteering in the future. We do the best we can to place people on committees, including new people.
Often, people resign for various reasons and a replacement will need to be appointed; the new appointee will be taken from our list of volunteers.

The mission of the Diverse Business Partners program is to promote efficiency and profitability for Major League Baseball and its Clubs while extending Baseball's ability to contribute to the economic growth, strength and well-being of diverse communities.
MLB has been at the forefront of professional sports in recognizing the importance of diversity, both on and off the field. In 1998, Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig, authorized the creation of the DBP program, an economically driven business initiative established to cultivate new and existing partnerships with minority- and women-owned businesses, by increasing opportunities for minorities and women to participate in the procurement activities of MLB.
In October 2001, MLB announced an aggressive new public phase of the program, expanding its outreach efforts in order to raise additional awareness for the program and show interested vendors how they can participate.
Since the formation and initial implementation stages of the DBP program in 1998, MLB has incurred expenditures in the hundreds of millions with minority- and women-owned businesses, making DBP an industry-leading program. In addition, the DBP program has complemented supplier diversity initiatives implemented by sports authorities for the construction of professional ballparks.
Proactive Leadership
Commitment to Sound Business Practices
Priority on Partnerships
Structure and Process that Yield Long-Term Success
The DBP program is the premier supplier diversity program in sports.
MLB has spent hundreds of millions of dollars with minority- and women-owned businesses through the DBP program.
DBP has created opportunities for thousands of minority- and women-owned businesses across a variety of industries.
Corey Smith , Senior Director, Supplier Diversity for DBP.
